HT1349 My Iphoto doesn't allow me to publish my photos on facebook

I need help as I can upload my Iphotos on Facebook

There are a couple of things that could be causing this. Try:
delete your iPhoto cache
hold down the option key
in the Go menu in the Finder, scroll down to Library
in Library, find Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhotoin that folder, find Cache.db and drag it to the trash.
delete the iPhoto preference file
do the same trick with the option key to show ~/Library
in Library/Preferences, find com.apple.iPhoto.plist, and drag it to the trash
if there are multiples of any of these files, drag them to the trash too.
delete the Keychain entries and do Keychain First Aid
in Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access
in the column on the left select login and under category, Passwords
delete all of the entries that include iPhoto or Facebook
in the Keychain Access menu, scroll down to Keychain First Aid, enter your user password, select repair, and click start.
Then restart your computer
new caches and preference files will be generated
you will need to reenter your iPhoto preferences
reenter your facebook user name and password in iPhoto
this should fix it.

I recently installed a 2nd drive in my Mac Pro. I wanted my pictures on the new drive so I moved the Picture file there. I also upgraded my iPhoto. Now iPhoto doesn't know where many of the photos are. Any quick fix?

Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the library on the other hard drive from those listed in the window:

Iphoto doesn t start. Message received: Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable

Iphoto doesn t work. Message received: Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable.
I removed it and I tried several times to reinstall it without success.

Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock those files and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Since iphoto 11 update, why can't I upload photo to facebook. It says that fb can't recognize my email/password combination

Since iphoto 11 update, why can't I upload photo to facebook. It says that fb can't recognize my email/password combination. I can't seem to find out why.

in the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete your e-mail account and reenter it
OR
IMHO the better solution is to set Apple mail as the email client in the iPhoto preferences

Iphoto keeps quitting unexpectedly when trying to share photos on Facebook.

iphoto keeps quitting unexpectedly when trying to share photos on Facebook.This only started a short while ago. I never used to have issues posting pictures before. Moreover, it also tells me there are issues with my library and prompts a "repair" of my iphoto library. This is scary - I have tons of pics and I'm not ready to lose any of them! I did change cameras a month ago, but it is the same make as I had before - a Canon powershot SX150 IS. Could it have anything to do with it? Could it be the fact that I keep so many pictures in iphoto (10,000 +)?

How to backup? You should be doing regular backups - if you are not you will lose all of yoru files and photos sooner or later
If you are not ready to lose all of your photos then you need to pruchase an external hard drive and start backing up immdeiately - for simplicity I recoommend a Time Capsule and Time Machine - but any backup is better than none - I do two daily
For this simply make a temporary copy of your iPhoto library
Will it fix the FB problem - hopefully

With the new update of iphoto I can not upload more than 10 photos to Facebook

with the new update of iphoto I can not upload more than 10 photos to Facebook, I can do

I have the same problem. Why am I now only limited to 10 photos to share in Facebook thru my Iphoto in ipad? Also, i cannot create an album when sharing photos thru Iphoto in ipad. I used to be able to do this. I don't want to upload all my photos in IOS album. Was this feature removed from the Iphoto?

IPhoto doesn´t work after trying to load photos from iphone with newer version. Help!!!!!

First, I do not have a recent back-up of my iPhoto Library. (But, I learned my lesson for next time). When I tried to load photos from my super duper up to date software I-phone to my outdated iPhoto on the computer (only version 8.1.2), a message came that I cannot open your Mediateck with this version of iPhoto,. You have changed your mediathek with a newer version of iPhoto.
(in German, because I am writing from Germany "Sie konnen ihre aktuelle Mediathek nicht mit dieser Version von iPhoto öffnen. Sie haben Ihre Mediathek mit einer neueren version von iPhoto geändert").
How can I save all the baby pictures of my 3 kids??Help

Did you update iPhoto?
If not:
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new iPhoto 08 library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

IPhoto doesn't display my recent imports in "Photo"

I have a brand new MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7.3 and iPhoto 11. I downloaded a "roll" on January 17 and another one today. I can see the photos I downloaded today only in "Recent Imports;" neither my roll from January 17 or my roll from today can be seen in "Photos." Essentially, my roll from January 17 is entirely lost. Any words of advice on where to find the photos or how to change the settings? If I have to rebuild iPhoto 11 (**** you Apple for lousy software), then what's the best way to do it?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

IPhoto will not allow me to share an album with Facebook

In the past, I have uploaded albums in iPhoto to my Facebook page. Easy, peasy. Tonight, though, the Facebook link in the "Share" function is dead. What gives?

Try going to System Preferences > Internet Accounts > Delete your Facebook account from the list.
Then try to share again and see if it prompts you to log in.

After upgrading my mac to OS X Yosemite iPhoto doesn't automatically launch to import new photos. It seems iPhoto is not recognizing my iPhone 6

immediately after upgrading to Yosemite it worked but only imported one photo out of 536 photos, there was an error message that said there was a problem reading a photo or a photo was missing. i have tried rebooting my computer and my phone and checked all the settings and i turned off photos on iCloud settings to be sure.

Hi Rob954,
In order to make sure that iPhoto launches when you connect an iPhone to your computer, you will want to check one setting in iPhoto. See this article -
iPhoto '11: Change what happens when you connect a camera to your computer
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Iphoto keeps crashing when I try to export photos to Facebook

...then it has to restore my library, what is going on and how do I fix it?

First go to the iPhoto/Accounts preference pane and delete your Facebook account. Then add it back and try again.
If that doesn't work you'll have to use the workaround of exporting to the Desktop and uploading to FB with your browser.

From your backup.

IPhoto upgrade doesn't allow me to search backups

really disliking the iPhoto upgrade that doesn't allow me to search backups for specific pictures anymore. my time machine won't even let me import my entire library from a few months ago when i press restore. if i would have known iPhoto does not store files in a reachable way such as a master folder with .jpg and .mov files i never would have been using iPhoto for my personal photos.

That was removed about 5 years ago.
my time machine won't even let me import my entire library from a few months ago when i press restore.
That's a Time Machine problem and best asked on the Using Mac OS X forum for whatever version of the OS you have.
if i would have known iPhoto does not store files in a reachable way such as a master folder with .jpg and .mov files i never would have been using iPhoto for my personal photos.
That's exactly how it stores them so I have no idea why you say that.

Error message doesn't allow iPhoto to connect to order books/prints

i get this messager repeatedly while trying to order books, prints, and publish my photos via my .mac account. AN ERROR OCCURRED WHILE CONFIRMING YOUR ACCOUNT INFORMATION. PLEASE CHECK YOUR NETWORK CONNECTION AND TRY AGAIN. i already checked time/date, my connection is fine, my computer is clean, what can this be?????

I am experiencing this same problem tonight. Did you resolve this problem? If so, how? This is the first time this has happened to me. I know it's not a problem with my account, because I am able to sync my iDisc, log into my .mac account on Safari, etc. The problem seems to be limited to iPhoto.
