HT204655 Having so many problems sharing photos on Facebook

Using iPhoto with Facebook was a great way to share photos with my friends. The new Photos app with Yosemite is not so great. After figuring out that the Facebook upload limit was 50 photos (is there any way to have the number of photos selected to be displayed somewhere on the screen so that I wouldn't have to guess?), I learned that:
1. I couldn't create a new Facebook album in Photos. Instead I had to upload to the Timeline, and then change the album name from "OS X Albums." Not critical, but it would be easier for me if I new which albums on Facebook I was publishing to.
2. The photos on Facebook were uploaded out of order, necessitating some rearranging the photos after the upload. Would there be any way to upload them to Facebook in the order I intended? With 50 or more photos it would be a lot of work to get them in the right order. Having them uploaded in the correct order will save me a lot of time.
3. I also added descriptions to most of the photos. In iPhoto the descriptions would also be uploaded to Facebook as captions for each photo. The new Photos app didn't include the descriptions with the photos during the upload. I prefer to have this feature so that I can add the commentary before publishing them on Facebook.   Would that still be possible? I would like it so that I wouldn't have to type up the captions twice.

  • Problem posting photos to Facebook Pages.  Help!

    Is anyone else having a problem posting photos to Facebook Pages?  I have been doing so on a daily basis for a few years now.  Yesterday, I was unable to post to a Facebook Page (not personal accounts). 
    Now, when I attempt to create a Published Collection for Facebook, I no longer have the option to select an existing Facebook Page Album.
    Has something changed?  Many thanks in advance for your feedback!

    hi again.. in January it was a facebook problem.. there were no lightroom updates.. same now.. so you can go to facebook and fill in that form That Paul Diming talks about in a previous post
    I have reported this problem to Facebook using their own problem reporting mechanism.
    It would help if everyone who is having this issue should do the same.  Here is the process:
    1. Click on the pull down on the far upper right of the screen.
    2. Click "Report a Problem"
    3. Click "Something Isn't Working"
    4. Select Pages on the pull down.
    5. Explain the problem.
    6. Upload a screen image. I captured an image of trying to create a new published collection with the pull down showing no Page Albums listed.
    It might help for Facebook to know that it isn't just me having the problem.

  • Problem sharing photos from multiple accounts on one Mac

    I am trying to share two different iPhoto libraries from two different User Accounts on the same Mac. In each account I have iPhoto Sharing 'Look for shared photos' and 'Share my photos' checked. I also have the Firewall on with port 8770 enabled.
    1. From a Powerbook I can only connect to one library. Once I pick that first library the second library will not load at all. I have to quick and restart iPhoto in order to select the second library. -- I fixed this by turning off my Firewall. With the Firewall off I can switch between the libraries at will. My question, what ports should I enable besides 8770 to allow multiple instances of iPhoto to run? (Just like you need multiple ports to have the ATV connect to multiple instances of iTunes.)
    2. When I am configured as above, my two iPhoto applications do not see each other. They can both see and connect to the Powerbook. And the Powerbook can see each running instance. But neither iPhoto instance on the same Mac can see the other. This is new with iPhoto '08. I was able to do this with iPhoto '06.
    Thank you

    HI Darien,
    Here are all the links I have for the different kinds of sharing:
    SHARING IPHOTO LIBRARIES
    Sharing libraries between users on the same local network
    You can also share a library on the same machine between users the same way.
    Sharing libraries between users on the same machine...
    -both users must have sharing enabled in their iPhoto Preferences
    -both users must be logged in and have iPhoto running
    -Remember that you can only view the other library. You can't edit the photos or play the saved slideshows or view the made books or burn them to CD or DVD. The books and slideshows will show up as an album. You can play that album as an "on the fly" slideshow. You can drag images from the sharing library to your library in the source column to import them to your library. You can then edit, add to albums, books, slideshow, etc.
    Sharing links from Apple....
    Sharing your photos between computers
    About shared photos
    Turning off photo sharing
    Looking for shared photos
    SHARING ONE IPHOTO LIBRARY BETWEEN USERS ON SAME MACHINE
    You can try one of these three methods:
    1- Use iPhoto Library Manager-the paid version
    The documentation page will give instructions on how it is done.
    2- Sharing one iPhoto library between several users on one machine
    3- Share an iPhoto Library in tiger Using ACL's
    4- I have also read about ShareAlike
    There is no other info on the site about how it works.
    I strongly urge anyone wanting to try any of the methods for sharing one iPhoto Library folder among more than one user to backup all iPhoto Library folders before attemptin anything.

  • Problems sharing photos: email, uploading, etc

    EVERY SINGLE TIME I email a photo or try to upload photos to Facebook, I get the color wheel and have to FORCE QUIT iphoto.  Help!

    Do you have iPhoto or Mail set at your email client?  You can check that in iPhoto's General preference pane:
    Click to view full size
    A quick first fix is this:  make a duplicate copy of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home()/ Library/Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences..

  • IPhoto - Error Sharing Photo on Facebook

    Hi,
    Recently I have been receieving "nsurlerrordomain error -1" error while sharing photos from iPhoto (v 9.4.2) to my Facebook account.
    I tried removing and adding the FB account the issue persists.
    Kindly advice.

    You might try this: Mac OS X: Resetting the SyncServices folder
    Otherwise the workaround that works for all is to export the photos to a folder on the Desktop and upload to Facebook with your browser until a fix is found.

  • Why are you all having so many problems????????

    I am an Apple Powerbook, iBook, iMac and 3rd Gen iPod user. All these products have performed exceptionally well. In terms of OS both OS9 and OSx have been excellent. I started from “0” knowledge and soon found that the Apple designers had already worked out the problems that I would have had before I even new I had any. In other words, provided I used common sense and patience I found that I could work through the harder to understand areas with positive results. What great products.
    In terms of hardware I have had all the usual problems (mother boards, hard drive, track pad and super drive failure) all of which, as I understand come down to the component manufactures and not Apple.
    As I understand the first iPod products were designed to play MP3 music and by the 3rd Gen these products had been refined in a manner that made them a world leader. Then came the 4th Gen iPod, again an even better MP3 player with the bonus of Photo ability or is it. On reading “Apple Discussions iPod with colour display” there appears to be no end to the problems that people are experiencing with reference to the Photo ability, it goes on and on!.
    I am therefore interested to know if the 2nd Gen of the Photo ability has been refined to that of the now MP3 ability and ease of use within the new 5th Gen iPod Video as very little has been mentioned within the “Apple Discussions iPod with video”. If it has then 2/3rds of the product is worth having “MP3 / Photo ability with a “?” over video ability that can only improve with time. However if the Photo ability still has the problems as mentioned in “Apple Discussions iPod with colour display” then something is wrong; 1/3rd of the product is worth having “MP3” and 2/3rd not with a “?” now over Photo ability and a “?” over Video ability.
    If this is so, then am I right in saying that as consumers we are rushing into Video ability on a false foundation as Apple are turning these iPod products out with added features that are no longer working in a user friendly manner or are we consumers all a bit thick?.
    I am not afraid of hearing the truth!.

    I have a color iPod 4th gen, and I'm also interested in knowing what the big deal is! My 4G works perfectly, except when I occasionally overload the HD with commands. The only trouble I had was upgrading to iTunes 5 on my XP SP1, which destroyed its iPod software for good. But that's normal, because SP1 is too old for the iPod.
    Any big problems with the 5G, spill 'em, I can't wait to hear the truth.

  • I am having so many problems with my ipads and my computers since I upgraded to Yosemite on my desktop!  I have never been so frustrated with Apple.  My apple at work also has a virus problem and my other MAC keeps rebooting!!  My MAC at home burned

    Problems with Yosemite: virus (malware), rebooting, burned hard drive, ipads keep losing wifi.

    You're going to have to be more specific about the symptoms you're seeing. At the moment, I really have almost no idea at all what's going on. Also, be aware that upgrading your Mac to Yosemite has no effect whatsoever on your iPads.
    If you're having a lot of ad problems or redirects in the web browsers on all these devices, you probably have some kind of network compromise, such as hacked network hardware:

    all the posts in everyone one fines garageband so easy
    me too!
    now if apple made both programs why so many issues in
    logic the program we all shelled out at least 2 bills for,
    I know one (logic) is more pro, but does that mean it has to be
    so hard to use?
    The idea was to spend for time on creating music no?
    just a thought

    The only way is to make a level advance (i.e. to STUDY...).
    GB is made to be used without any knowledge but when you begin to climb higher you need some knowledge.
    It's the same with any other software from text to viedo and photo editors, design, illustration etc.
    You can buy Illustrator but if you don't know how to design and which are the features that permits to you to make a pro work that's remain just a game.
    And about music, if you want to play a guitar you have to know how to play, how to change the strings, how to obtain bendings, tapping, fingerpicking etc.
    So my advice is: *don't give up, you'll see (or better hear) the results*.
    cheers

  • Problems sharing photos through IPhoto for mac

    I am using iphoto9.6 on a mac mini (late 2012).
    My experience is not great, I'm a disappointed with the overall speed that everything only mac happens.
    I'd like to address each of my problems one at a time, I'm kind of hoping that maybe resolving one problem will solve a lot of the others.  (Always the optimist!)
    SO.. I want to share a photo through messages, some times it works, often I get this message, some times other things go wrong.
    I know thats not much info to go on, but if anyone can tell me what additonal info is required I will do my best to provide it.
    One thing I will note is it sounds like my Mac is working its socks off, pretty much all the time, I'm not really asking it to do much, just open a few web pages and view a few photos in iPhoto mainly.
    Any help greatly appreciated

    make that

  • I am having problems uploading photos to facebook, tumblr, etc.

    when i go to upload the photos, certain photos are not able to be uploaded.  it says that they are not the correct format.  i played around a little bit on iPhoto to see if i could locate the problem, and i found a little bit of information.  i figured this out after clicking the "show photo information" button for the problem photos.  when i "revert to original," the photo is shown to have a size (2.7 MB, for example) but as soon as i edit the photo in any way (enhance, crop, rotate, effects, ANYTHING) the size of the photo changes to a dash.  at this point, the photo cannot be uploaded.  what is going on? another user posted a similar questions earlier, and restarting the computer and iphoto worked for that user.  i have tried this, however, with no results. PLEASE help, i am in mexico, publishing a travel blog, so being unable to upload photos is a huge hassle for me.

    What happens when you export one of these problem photos?

  • I am having so many problems with compatibilty with my AEBS....

    Ok here's my setup - i've got cable modem running straight into my brand spanky new AEBS. I have a USB printer running into the back of this. I have a MacBookPro 2.33 Ghz Intel Core Duo. I connect to the internet using this with Wireless. I have set up the BS with 802.11n (b/g compatible), automatic channel, and WEP (Transitional S N). I have set up my Mac with Manual IP so that I can port map and open up a Torrent client and a KDX Server on my Laptop which works perfectly so no problems there.
    I have the following problems with my other kit that needs to connect to the Internet:
    A) My wife has a little PC Laptop that runs XP Pro and she needs Internet access. I've set it up to see the Extreme, using a Manual IP and WEP Password - which turns into TKIS or something - I don't really understand PC's. I have also taken the firewall off, and the PC is connected to the Access Point, and all seems well but the PC just will not see the internet. Everything SEEMS to be working up to the point of needing the internet. The PC used to work on my old NetGear router that I had before I 'upgraded' my router to AEBS. Very strange and utterly frustrating.
    B) I have a GamePoint wireless acces point downstairs that picks up the wireless network and feeds it to the XBOX 360 through Ethernet. This used to work a treat using my netgear router. The problem I have now is that when i enter a WEP password on the BS, it asks for 13 characters, and the WEP password box on the browser interface is split into 5 boxes that allow 2 digits each. It does not support WPA security so - ***? How can I run this system with WEP?
    C) I have a similar problem with my Wii in that it only accepts 10 digits for WEP.
    I am very frustrated - this Apple Base Station only seems to want to work with other Apple gear.
    Can anyone help me with any or all of these frustrating problems?
    Thanks in Advance - Darren

    Ok PC sorted.
    A reservation says - I want this PC to be always given this IP address.
    To reserve an IP from the DHCP panel.
    (in your list of images)
    Enter the Mac number of the PC - alongside the IP number you want to give it.
    The Mac number is also called the Hardware Address. Network Utility will give you the number. Be careful, you need the Hardware Address of the Wireless connction - not the Ethernet connection which will appear first.
    (Select en0 en1 etc. )
    OK - I have a solution for your games too. But you are not going to like it.
    Your gaming devices only support old-fashioned 40-bit WEP. Which is easy to crack.
    Your AEBSn supports that too - but it is incompatible with 802.11n.
    This is what you can do (if you want)
    Click the Airport Icon (in Airport Utility) and go the Wireless tab.
    You'll see a pulldown marked Radio Mode. If you click it you see 4 options.
    But if you OPTION click. You see 8 options. Select 802.11b/g compatible.
    Now if you click the Wireless Security pulldown - you'll get the option of 40-bit WEP.
    This will give you a Hex String which will fit into your gaming devices.
    But of course, you have sacrificed 802.11n to get it.
    Another option is to dig out an old 802.11g wireless box and make a dual-band network.
    I think we are done!!!
