Iphoto 09 displays nothing

After a transfer of Iphoto library (Ilife 06) from my G5, Iphoto09 does not display the whole picture when clicking on the miniature. The row of miniatures is displayed at the top of the screen, but the screen is black eslsewhere.
It seems that the picture appears during a very short time then disappears.
The face recognition does not work, probably because, when selecting a miniature, nothing appears.
Help please

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.

  • How can I get iPhoto to display ONLY file numbers of pictures and not document titles when displayed as thumbnails?

    I am a pro photographer and I've never used iPhoto. I use a combination of Adobe's Bridge, Lightroom & Photoshop programmes.  I've sent a disk of images to a client and they cannot see the file numbers of the images.  Their version of iPhoto only displays the document title that I have embedded in the metadata when importing the images into Bridge.
    When I ran a test and imported the same images into my version of iPhoto(7.1.5, since you ask) some of the thumbnails displayed the file number while others displayed the document title.  Why does this happen?  Can I make it stop?  How do I make iPhoto display just the file number in thumbnail mode and not the document title?
    When I view the images in Bridge, all I see is the file number but I can't convince the client to use the programme even though they have it.  Any help/guidance will be very gratefuly received.
    Many thanks,
    Adam.

    In every version prior to iPhoto 11:
    Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File...
    In iPhoto 11:
    Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original...

  • Facebook pictures uploaded from iPhoto get displayed in low resolution on mac browsers

    ... but is otherwise fine on PC version of the browsers.
    When viewing facebook photos on Safari (or Chrome, or Firefox) on Mac, photos uploaded using iPhoto get displayed in low res. Manually uploaded (through facebook upload tool) photos are displayed ok.

    Hi Jon,
    Thank so much for your reply. That portion I comfortable with, but was thinking I could take photos with my mobile phone and have them sync to a folder on my PC as my originals. I dont want to download photo's from my phone. It does work as desired exept the fact that the photos resolution is lower on the PC than the "originals" on the Revel website.
    If I right click on the photo in PE and select "download original from revel" it works, but sort of defeats it purpose in my case.
    It seems like Photoshop is not importing the pic at the original resolution. ie to me I would expect a "import original resolution" inside photoshop.
    I am using PE12.
    I dont like to compare PE revel to apple iCloud, but this is how their software works. If I take a photo on my iPhone its on my mac in full res within minutes to do with as I please. This is what I was thinking Revel could do for me and more. Dropbox, Onedrive and Googledrive all support this, but then I have to import it into PE.
    Once again. Thanks for taking the time to reply. Much appreciated!!
    Kind Regards

  • My Mac Air iphoto will display thumbnails but will not display photos in any way - single photo / slideshow etc - any ideas

    My Mac Air iphoto will display thumbnails but will not display photos in any way - single photo / slideshow etc - any ideas?

    Are you seeing this
    when you double click on a thumbnail file?  If so it's an indication that the file path/link between the thrumbnail and original, full sized file has been broken.  Therefore, and assuming you're running iPhoto 9 or later, try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • Wanting to use Photoshop CS6 to open images directly from iPhoto 11. Using OSX10.8.2 and iPhoto 11.  Just installed Photoshop CS6 and want to open images directly from iPhoto.    Before I installed PS I was not able to edit photos in iPhoto 11.  Nothing

    Wanting to use Photoshop CS6 to open images directly from iPhoto 11.
    Using OSX10.8.2 and iPhoto 11.  Just installed Photoshop CS6 and want to open
    images directly from iPhoto.    Before I installed PS I was not able to edit photos
    in iPhoto 11.  Nothing happens when I click on ‘edit‘ it is blank. 
    And now it will not work using Photoshop CS6 either.
    From Help Center I have gone to iPhoto/Preferences/ Advanced and chosen Photoshop CS6  to Edit Photos but then cannot find an 'Open' to click? Perhaps this is the problem?
    When I select a photo in iPhoto and click the Edit button - nothing happens.
    Please advise. Glenys

    This may be of help to you:
    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 am trying to find a way to get iPhoto to display the keywords when I look at the pictures in a slide show

    I have l lot of pictures of several trips and I display them on the screen as a screen saver. Many of the places I don't remember where I took them, but I made notes as keywords. How or what can I do to diasplay the keywords with the pictures?
    I would buy another app if I know it will work for me.
    thank you for any hints I can get.

    Sorry but I know of no app that will display keywords during  Slideshow. Several - including iPhoto - will display the title and you can change lots of titles quite quickly using the Batch Change command. As to what gets displayed during a ScreenSaver that's a matter for the individual screensaver.

  • Cannot get iphoto to display imported pictures

    Recently I used Duplicate Annihilator to remove duplicates from iphoto '09, which were imported from many folders of pictures (not directly from a camera) and I just noticed that all photos which had duplicates are now no longer in my photo library at all. This was around 2,000 photos. I used finder to search for a specific folder that I imported and that is no longer visible in iphoto and I am able to locate the folder and files of all missing pictures inside the iphoto library file.
    So how do I get iphoto to display these files which are in the iphoto library but cannot be found in iphoto?
    I have tried rebuilding the photo library by using command-alt-shift and opening iphoto, but it did not work. It did, however, create more duplicates which I am scared to annihilate out of fear that I will lose those completely as well.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Run the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - 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 option
    4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: It may take some time to create the new library if you have a lot of photos.
    Fix #2
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals folder from your original library as follows:
    Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
    1. Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    2. Open the library package like this.
    3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    4. Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library if you have the Finder checkbox unchecked in the Events preference pane.

  • Display Nothing in table column heding when parameter doesn't have any value

    Hi,
    I created one tabular report . Report has 2 parameters(ex: A and B) both have default values from two different datasets. I am using these parameters in two column headings (col1 has parameter A and col2 has parameter B) in report. My question is, if parameters(A
    and B ) don't have any value from the datasets it should display "Nothing" in the table column headings(col1 and col2). If parameters(A & B) have some value(June & July respectively) it should display in table column headings(col1 and col2).
    Thanks in advance,
    Visu

    Hi Visu,
    According to your description, you want to display the value of two parameters in two column headers. Parameter A in col1, parameter B in col2. And if the parameter returns null value, it should display “Nothing” in the header. If the
    parameter return a value, the value should be displayed in the column header.
    If in this scenario, in order to achieve your requirement, we can refer to the following expression in the two column headers:
    =iif(Parameters!ReportParameter_name.Value
    is nothing,"Nothing",Parameters!ReportParameter_name.Value)
    If there are any misunderstanding, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.
    Thanks,

  • Screen Painter displays nothing and becomes hang.

    <b>Screen Painter displays nothing and becomes hang.</b>
    To duplicate:
    1. Create a new table and fields. (I created using SQL Enterprise Manager).
    2. Create a new form using Screen Painter.
    3. Bound several items to column to field of table created on step#1
    4. Save and close the form in .srf.
    5. Open the saved form and Screen Painter becomes hang.
    Is there any mistakes in my steps? Or this is just a Screen Painter Bug?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jemmy Sentonius

    When creating new tables, make sure to create them via SAP. You can achieve this by either manually creating tables via SAP client or programmatically using DIAPI.
    When you bind data to a form via UIAPI (either programmatically or via xml/srf) SAP needs to know the tables you refer to.
    When you create tables using Enterprise Manager, SQL Server knows about the tables, SAP does not. Hence your error, I guess.
    However Screenpainter should not hang when referencing "invalid" (to SAP) tables. This behaviour ought to be corrected.

  • I'm using imovie 10.0.3 with OS x Version 10.9.2.  or some reason I can't double click on iphoto events to siadplay the pictures within that event. I've rebuilt my iphoto library, but nothing seems to work.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello All,
    Also no answer but am having the same problem.  All my catalogueing via folders is up in smoke and no external HDs (where I would normally directly store raw footage when importing) showing up on the iMovie interface.  It is a pain the arse to go back to the earlier version - why APPLE, pray tell, do you continue to lower expectations user-friendly functions. Shall try the option+open for a library but this too is extremely inconvenient if it works like iPhoto because you have to log out to log in to a new library whereas I just want to be able to see my multiple HDs directly from the iMovie menu and then the folders within folders I have layered in there - to make it easy to FIND STUFF. Wake up Apple, you are NOT meeting your customer's needs or desires.
    Thanks to the posters who are helping the rest of us lost in the dark with possible solutions - free fix-its for Apple which they don't deserve.

    My iPhoto wont display and i cant upload pics or even look at my library. how can i fix this?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see in the iPhoto window when iPhoto opens?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    Come on.  Give us something to work with here.

  • How can i fix my iphone 3g if and only it displays the apple logo when it is connected to its charger but it displays nothing when the charger is removed?

    how can i fix my iphone 3g if and only it displays the apple logo when it is connected to its charger but it displays nothing when the charger is removed?

    Plug it into a wall outlet and leave it plugged in for approximately 20 minutes.
    Then try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for 15-20 seconds.
    Does the device power on at this point?  If not, the battery or logic board is gone.
    Take it to Apple for evaluation.
    It may be worth replacing the battery, but I personally wouldn't spend the $149US for an Out of Warranty replacement on a 3+yr old device.
