I have multiple iPhoto albums, so this move is pushing thousands of pictures to each library. Why doesn't this come with a "No, Thanks!" option since I've ALREADY ensured the MobileMe albums were captured? I've never seen Apple force an action like this!
Worse - According to http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4328, "photos you published to MobileMe from your library may be moved from their original events into a new event called "From MobileMe"." - so the forced move has probably scrambled my events in every library. The 'fix'? Search for matching photos and if not found, copy and paste into the desired event. It will take DAYS for me to recover from this undesired and ill-considered forced action.

Load your backup from just before this and when you launch iPhoto click on learn more. Go back to iPhoto and in the iPhoto preferences remove all references to MM and do likewise in the system preferences

  • HT204406 I have multiple libraries - one on my work computer and one on my home computer. Can I connect both libraries (with different content) to itchTunes Ma without losing one or the other? I'd like to add what I have at work to what I have at home, et

    I subscribed iTunes Match in the hopes that I could combine my two libraries remotely. Essentially I have two awesome collections of music, one at work and one at home. I wanted to be able to access my work tunes from my library at home, and vice versa if possible as well as from my iphone. Now that I've activated match on my work comp though, is it going to wipe out my library at home once I connect to match from my personal mac? I'm wondering if this will happen because when I associated my iphone with match, it told me it was going to replace my iphone music library with the match (work) library. I haven't associated my home computer library with it yet, because I'm worried it will wipe out the music I have there that isn't already in the cloud. How do I access what I've added to Match from my work computer, so that I can add it to my home computer, without losing what's already there?

  • When adding folders to iTunes 11, they don't show up in the library.  On one folder add, it created a playlist (not what I wanted).  On the second folder, it shows nothing.  Never seen this before.  Advice?

    I added my first folder of MP3s and it created a playlist, but didn't show up in the library.  When adding a second folder, it didn't show up anywhere.  I can do a search for them in the search window, and it finds/plays them, but I want to be able to browse them in my library.  These are not MP3s downloaded from iTunes, but are personal files located on my hard drive.  Can anyone help?

    I have a Dell that's running Windows XP. I have found that itunes is very temperamental. this works most of the time... except on my son's computer that's running Windows Vista.
    Go to your library in iTunes. Then go up to file and try one of the options (import, add folder to library, or add file to library).
    Adding a folder is the least work. You can add all the files from a folder with one click... if it works. Remember that itunes is temperamental.
    If that doesn't work, try adding a file. The problem with that is that you have to go through the whole process for each and every file (song, movie, etc).
    Sometimes the only thing that works is to import.
    I haven't gotten iTunes to work on my son's computer (Windows Vista).
    I can't get support from apple in any way at all! They are good about creating electronics that appeal to us But they are lousy at support. If anyone figures out how to access support (where you can actually contact Apple) please let me know ([email protected]). I've been trying for 6 months.

  • I have multiple iPhoto libraries and when I selecting which library to view (hold down 'option' key and launch iPhoto from the dock) it automatically closes another open apps window eg. Chome, Word. 1 app closes every time I launch iPhoto this way.

    I have multiple iPhoto libraries on my Macbook Air 10.7.5 and when I am selecting which library to view (hold down 'option' key and launch iPhoto from the dock) it automatically closes another open application window eg. Chome, Word. 1 app closes every time I launch iPhoto this way.

    If you're pushing Option at the exact moment you're clicking the Dock icon, it's supposed to do that. Wait until just after clicking it.

  • Burn multiple iphoto albums to one dvd

    Hi,
    I would like to burn multiple iphoto albums onto one dvd.
    Any help would be much appreciated,
    Brandon

    What's the destination of this disk? Another Mac with iPhoto? Then use the Share -> Burn command
    Anything else: Select the Albums in the iPhoto Window and export them to Folders on the desktop. Then burn those folders with the Finder.
    One exception: Going to view the files on a DVD player? You'll need to create the disk in iDVD.
    Regards

  • I have recently purchased an IPad Air. This comes with "IPhoto" as well as it's usual photo App. I do not have a Mac, instead I am syncing it to my windows PC. Is there any way of actually moving a picture around, (arranging photos in a single album)

    I have recently purchased an IPad Air. This comes with "IPhoto" as well as it's usual photo App. I do not have a Mac, instead I am syncing it to my windows PC. Is there any way of actually moving a picture around, (arranging photos in a single album), in either of these apps???? They claim to be able to "Organize"  or "arrange" Photos, but for the life of me I can't figure out how......could you recommend any apps that actually allow someone to move individual photos around on an IOS Device.

    No, reordering within folders and albums is not supported. the yare arranged automatically by date. I found this, but I have not used any of the apps besides iPhone. You might check the descriptions to see if they do what you need.

  • I have multiple iPhoto libraries w/ duplicates in several. How can I consolidate and find the dupes? Some photos are versions of the original.

    I have multiple iPhoto libraries w/ duplicates in several. How can I consolidate and find the dupes? Some photos are versions of the original. On my iMac, I also have many folders containing some of the same photos. My computer is used for both personal and business purposes. My libraries should be separated, one for each.

    To merge libraries use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  or Aperature
    To find duplicates within an iPhoto library use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - 
    Photos that are not in an iPhoto library can be imported telling iPhoto not to import duplicates (an imperfect procews) and then IPLM can find the duplicates
    As to keeping seperate libraries - only you can do that - IPLM can move photos between libraries for you but only you can know which photos should be in which library

  • When I'm using Safari, acasionally the menu bar just disappears. I'm running the latest version of Lion and the latest version of Safari. This is not a full screen app problem. I have multiple windows open. This happens all the time! Firefox is fine! ???

    When I'm using Safari, ocasionally the menu bar just disappears. I'm running the latest version of Lion and the latest version of Safari. This is not a full screen app problem. I have multiple windows open. This happens all the time! Firefox is fine! What the ****? Please help!

    Right, like I'm trying to say, THERE IS NO SAFARI MENU bar. Example: I have multiple applications open, I click on a Photoshop window, the correct menu or title bar or whatever changes. Every other application window I click on brings up the correct "whatever" bar. If I click on the desktop, the "Finder Bar" shows up.
    Everythiing else, BUT SAFARI, works the same way since OS X came out.  This is ridiculous.
    I'm getting the vibe that Apple is trying to get rid of the finder.... this is the way wrong direction.

    No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
    TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
    •  I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
    There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
    On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
    I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
    I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
    With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?

  • Why do i have multiple iPhoto libraries

    I am trying to migrate my iphoto library to a new location but i have 3 libraries to choose from. why were the others created? one library is 90gb, the other 2 are 22 gb
    Should i just delete the other 2?

    No way for anyone but you to know - you have multiple iPhoto libraries because you have created them - only you know when and why
    And only you know if they are ok to trash - depress teh option key, launch iPhoto and use the select library window to open and check each one and then desiece if you want to keep it or delete it

  • You already have a schema opened on this file with another name: abc

    I am trying to create a model for an XML file, when I clicked on "Objects to Reverse" checkbox under "Selective Reverse" tab, I am getting the following error:
    java.sql.SQLException: You already have a schema opened on this file with another name: abc
    I have created a Data Server in Topology whose schema and workschema are "abc" and logicla schema is "Labc".
    Where is the mistake going in?

    That is because you can only connect to a file in read/write mode once at a time. When you connect to a file without specifying ro=true (e.g. Read Only=true) in the URL, the file is locked and you can’t connect to the file from another instance until the original connection is dropped. I assume since you are trying to connect to the file multiple times that you mean to connect in readonly mode. To do this, like I mentioned earlier, simply add ro=true to your URL and you should be all set. Note: you may need o restart your JVM for chnges to take effect. Let me know if that works.
