IPhoto 08 - Rotations Now Not Modified!

Ah, great. I've just discovered that in iPhoto 08 image rotations DO NOT count as a modification. What that means is, if you rotate an image, iPhoto 08 doesn't make a copy of the image and store it in the Modified folder. Nope. It just uses one image, the original stored in the Originals folder, and does the rotation as a non-destructive real-time transformation. Great.
The only thing is, any images that you rotated in iPhoto 06 will still be stored as two versions: an original and a modified. So you'll have to go back and Revert To Original and then re-apply the rotation on all those photos, if you want to do things the iPhoto 08 way.

That's not my experience. When I rotate an un-edited image, without even going into edit mode, a jpg copy of the rotated image appears in the modified folder.
When I click on "Show image" it shows me the modified folder.

Try each of these in order until one works:
Open App Store and click on your Purchases tab. If you're prompted to accept them, then do so.
Put the old ones into the Trash, temporarily. Open App Store and see if you can download them for free from their individual product pages. If asked to buy them, see the next option.
Click here, contact Apple, and wait for a response.
You will have to purchase them using your Apple ID.

I had Iphoto 08 and now is gone, I have under applications and is not there. Also most of the pictures are gone. Can you easily delete the application?

Obviously you can.
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

Downloaded Mavericks and now not able to open iPhoto

Downloaded Mavericks and now why am I not able to open iphoto?

Not obvious enough. Why separate the two?? Oh well, it's done, and I'm happy.
I take your point. Mail.app is in the Applications folder alongside iphoto.app, however some are in the OS and some are not. What I meant was it should be obvious that after an upgrade you either wait for the update notices, or run Software Update after an OS upgrade, not before. Taking a Time Machine backup before upgrading the OS is also essential but missed by many.
You can leave the suggestion at http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html to include reminders in the How to Upgrade and during an upgrade. Apple will not reply but will take notice.

HT1338 I have a problem with the aspect ratio of photos as they appear on iPhoto. They are not correct. On the original photo people were fat and squat. I tried rotating and they became long and narrow. Neither correct.

Sounds more like a problem with your Display Resolution than iPhoto.
Go to: Apple / System Preferences / Displays and in the Resolutions list select,
1280 x 800 if you have a 13" MacBook Pro
1400 x 900 if you have a 15" MacBook Pro
1920 x 1200 if you have a 17" Macbook Pro

iOS? or OSX
OSX = Finder > Applications > iPhoto. Double click the app to open it.
The icon (alias) will then be back on the dock. Right click the Icon > Keep in Dock.
Icons dragged off the dock vanish in a puff of smoke.. they are only aliases (shortcuts)
If you mean iOS I can't really understand what is happening..

Are you getting the Source dropdown?

Just downloaded mavericks, now iPhoto won't load because of an error message that says "You can't open the application "IPhoto" because it is not supported on this type of Mac" . I have a 17" MacBook Pro, mid 2010 model running 2.53 GHz and Intel Core I5,

I just downloaded the new Mavericks operating sytem on my mid 2010 MacBook Pro, 17" 2.53GHz, Intel Core I5 machine. My IPhoto is no longer working at all, I'm getting an error message that says - "You Can't open the application "IPhoto" because it is not supported on this type of Mac". I also loaded Mavericks onto my other MacBook Pro 17", mid 2009 model and everything works fine. I would think that the newer Mac would easily work with IPhoto. Also, when I try to download from the App Store, it asks for my Apple ID and Password, I enter it, and then the little spinning color wheel just spins forever, with nothing ever happening. I tried downloading the IPhoto Upgrade but it never actually downloads, HELP!!!

What version of iPhoto do you have installed? Is if one of the versions shown as not compatible in this screenshot?
If it is then go to the App Store and download iPhoto 9.5. It will be free if you have an iPhoto 9 or later verson currently.

Editing in Photoshop saves jpeg to "Originals", not "Modified"

I recently started using Photoshop CS6 to edit my photos from iPhoto 8.1.2. I've set up the preferences to use CS6 as my external editor, and "Use Raw when using external editor" (I am shooting raw format). The file opens fine in Adobe Bridge, I make my adjustments and bring it into Photoshop.
The problem comes when I try to save - previously, when I chose Save, CS6 knew to save the file back to the "Modified" folder in my iPhoto library. Now, it is saving it back to the "Originals" folder, along with an .xmp file, and of course the edited photo does not show up in iPhoto (neither in enlarged nor thumbnail views). If I choose Save As and try to save it to the Modified folder, I can't complete the path because the iPhoto library is a package and won't open in the Save As browser window.
How to get my save function back on track, so I can save directly back to Modified without having to import the files again?

If you're editing RAW in iPHoto with PS you must save the edited version as a new file outside of iPhoto and import into iPHoto from there. Only jpegs, tiffs, gifs can be edited in iPhoto by PS and have the normal Save get the edited version in the correct Modified folder.
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

I downloaded an update for iPhoto yesterday. Now, when I try to open iPhoto...I get a gray screen with the "circling" icon in the middle but it doesn't open. All was fine before the download yesterday? Any suggestions, Thanks. Wayne K..

I download a suggested "update" from the App Store for my iPhoto yesterday. Now when I try and open my iPhoto, I get a grey screen with the rotating circle icon in the middle......that just keeps rotating. Ergo, it won't open!!! Before the "download" all was fine in Heaven & Earth....now, I'm a little peeved.
Anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks,
Wayne K.
ps Have a good day, God Bless America ...............and be weary of iPhoto update downloads,very weary.

No need to be wary of iPhoto updates however it is a good idea to follow the instructions when updating. I haven't updated iPhoto from the App Store before however it should not be much different than doing a DVD update. Here are instructions on updating the library:

Aperture & iPhoto metadata when images NOT stored in iPhoto

Thinking of "upgrading" to Aperture from iPhoto '11 - still want to use iPhoto for organization but Aperture for hopefully better editing capabilities, etc.
Have 30,000+ images with keywords, etc. in iPhoto; the image files are NOT stored IN iPhoto, i.e., they are organized in folders external to iPhoto's library. The iPhoto library file best I can tell stores thumbnails and keyword metadata, etc.
I'd like to use Aperture and have access to all of iPhoto's keywords, etc. but to use the original photo files.
Can Aperture be setup to work this way? i.e., to pull in the 30,000+ photos' keywords yet reference the same originals that iPhoto is referencing?
I don't want to duplicate the 30,000+ originals... In all likelihood I'd only ever want to manipulate a small percentage of the total image library in Aperture.
Any suggestions appreciated!

re: "Basically to edit an image, stored in iPhoto, in Aperture you would have to export the image from iPhoto import into Aperture modify it export it out of Aperture and import it back into iPhoto."
My point is that in my case the images are NOT *stored* IN iPhoto...
Yes I understand, your iPhoto library is setup using referenced masters, the termed used when the master file is stored outside of the programs database. And you could setup Aperture in the same way and they would both be pointing to the same master file, external to both programs databases.
But here's here's the kicker: The master file *is never modified* by either program. I believe iPhoto makes a copy of the master when you apply adjustments (someone with a greater understanding of iPhoto can correct me here) how it does it isn't important what is important is that he master isn't modified; Aperture also leaves the master alone. It records the adjustments you make as a stream on instructions and applies those to the master when you want to create an adjusted image. What you see (normally) in Aperture's views are previews of the adjusted image. So changes you make in Aperture won't be seen in iPhoto because iPhoto is looking at the original master file, not Aperture's adjusted version.
Now you can share the preview from Aperture with iPhoto, but at this point you basically have the adjusted image in two places.
And in reference to the other response that suggests that iPhoto and Aperture use different databases, I'd completely expect that to be the case. What I'm wondering about is can Aperture initialize its database from iPhoto's database; i.e., create its equivalent to iPhoto's "library" file (where all the iPhoto metadata is stored) from iPhoto's AND like iPhoto reference the original files in their original location.
Yes Aperture can initialize a database of its own based on the iPhoto library and that library can be setup to use referenced masters, see above.
I don't see why I'd need to 'export' any image from iPhoto (unless of course I'd "edited" it in iPhoto - in which case the *modified* file IS I think stored IN iPhoto's library) but that's my point... I don't WANT to edit the files with iPhoto... I want to edit the files with Aperture.
You're right you won't need to export from iPhoto if you setup both with referenced masters. But like I said above to get back to iPhoto you will have to export from Aperture unless you can live with using the previews in iPhoto. But again you will basically have two identical library structures, at least at start, as time goes on they will diverge.
I hope this better clarifies what I'm trying to explain.
It does, I hope my reply also helps explain the difficulties with this setup and why it's not as cut and dry as it first appears.
I have read *many* other posts that point out what you're pointing out but they all seem to make assumptions about wanting to modify files in Aperture which were previously *modified* in iPhoto. The unmodified "original" photos (assuming both iPhoto and Aperture have the ability that iPhoto has to reference the original files from a location *external* to iPhoto) are then by definition are already shared between iPhoto and Aperture so there's no need to 'export' from one to the other, no?
As I've said whats shared is the original unmodified master image. Once either program modifies it it is no longer shared.

IPhoto won't open. Modified and created dates say 12/31/69

iPhoto won't open. Modified and created dates say 12/31/69. Help! OS is Tiger. Older G4 Powerbook.

As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and try to create a new, test library. Can you? If you can then your current library is damaged and needs to be repaired.
Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download IPhoto Library Manager 4 for OS XC 10.6.8 and iPhoto 8.1.2 and later or iPhoto Library Manager 3 (for OS X 10.5.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and earlier) and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu (iPLM 3) or Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu (iPLM 4) option.
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

IPhoto prints dark now?

When I print to my Canon Pixma after applying the latest patch, the prints are extremely dark from iPhoto. If I print from any other application the prints are perfect but iPhoto is printing all pictures almost black. I'm using 7.1.3. All my settings are generic - I have not changed anything.
Anyone have any ideas?

Airren:
Are you printing with Photoshop from within iPhoto? I mean are you printing the file that iPhoto generated upon importation and/or editing? How do you have Photoshop's color management preferences set up? Is PS doing the managing, i.e. applying a specific profile and using that like I have here?
I do all of my printing from within iPhoto with Photoshop. I've set iPhoto preferences to use Photoshop and then set it back to iPhoto. When I Control+click on the thumbnail I can select Edit in external editor and it takes me to PS. From there I print. We have so much more control over the output with PS that I only use iPhoto for non critical printing.
By restore I meant try changing other settings. There are other areas that can be tried. Color correction: ColorSync, none or the Canon option. Under Color Matching I have ColorSync and Vendor Matching options. Mine is set to Vendor Matching which may mean that the printer is making some decisions on the color.
Run a test to see if there's any color profile change to a file after importing into iPhoto. Import a photo, Control+click on its thumbnail and select Show File. When you get to the file in the Finder open it with Preview, type Command+i and check the Info window for the color profile. Now edit the file, preferably crop so a new modified file has to be created, Control+click on the thumbnail and select Show File again. This will take you to the modified version where you can open with Preview and check it's profile. Open the original source file with Preview and check it's profile. See if there are any differences.
I don't think your print driver is the culprit since all the other apps print OK. If you haven't tried printing from Preview do so to see if it's OK or like iPhoto. You're not the only one who has problems with color and iPhoto but there has been no silver bullet solution found. Printing from PS may be you only workaround option till a fix is found. Be sure to report this to Apple in detail, especially about other apps printing satisfactorily and mention the Preview print test. Wish I had better news for you. Color management is one of the biggest issues for many.
Just thought of something else you can try. Duh. Should have mentioned it first: delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder. If prints are still dark log into another account and try printing from iPhoto there. If prints a good there then post back. If they aren't then iPhoto is definitely the culprit somehow.
P.S. Just reread my post and it does seem a little rambling but I do that sometimes while trying to come up with other solutions to try. Hope you can get thru it OK.

Everytime I open iphoto, my computer tells me A photo has been found in the iPhoto Library that was not imported. Would you like to import it. no matter what I do, iphoto puts the pic in recovered files. How do I fix this?

Everytime I open iphoto, my computer tells me, A photo has been found in the iPhoto Library that was not imported. Would you like to import it. If I import it, a message comes up Unreadable file, the following file could not be imported. them it tells me where the file is and it cannot be opened. If I do not import, then it says,The photo has been placed in the folder /Users/patrick*******/Pictures/iPhoto Library Recovered Photos_4. It will just keep adding to recvovered photos. This drives me crazy!!!!!!! How do I fix this?

I had this problem some months ago and the following solution from Terrence Delvin put things right:
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?
If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.
However, since connecting a memory stick to my computer, I now have the same problem again. This time there is no folder called 'Import' or 'Importing' so what should I do?
