IPhoto 11 and Picture file extensions

Since upgrading to iPhoto 9.2.1, I've noticed that after importing, iPhoto no longer displays the picture's file extension below the pic, or in the information window.  All my files have a .CR2 extension when they are imported.  All pictures that were in the iPhoto llibrary, prior to upgrade to 9.2.1, display their file extensions below the pic, and in the information window.
I've not been able to locate a preference that allows me to display the file extension in iPhoto...  Is it no longer possible to see the file extension in this version of iPhoto?
Thanks,
Bob

I have connection issues with my AppleTV and it seams to disconnect routinely.  I haven't used it much and am trying to resolve that issue as well.  Separate from that, how do you interface directly with AppleTV.
And by the way Bob, I'm at the point where I am rebuilding my files via another post...  Currently on step 1, and if that doesn't work, I'm going to export the entire library to a folder and then group it by file type to narrow down and change the format via preview and replace the files deleting the originals.
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
If #1 fails continue with:
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager 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 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.

  • Hi: How do I move photos from iphoto to the "pictures" file?

    Hi: How do I move photos from iphoto into the Pictures file? I just purchased a digital camera and the software is only available for photos in the pictures file. Thanks.

    What camera and software is it and why do you want to use it instead of iPhoto? Is this software that came with the camera?  You don't need to use it as iPhoto is all you need. That software is not compatible with iPhoto so you would have to abandon iPhoto if you want to use the camera's software.

  • IPhoto events and pictures missing from iPhoto after restoring new hard drive and upgrade to iLife11

    My iPhoto events and pictures are ALL missing from my iPhoto Library after I tried restoring my programs on a new hard drive AND upgrading to iLife11!  Over the last few months, I upgraded my 2008 Macbook Pro's hard drive from a 250 GB to a 500 GB hard drive and since then have been manually installing and restoring programs and software.  I decided to do things manually because I had problems with doing Time Machine backups/restores in the past, so before I upgraded the drive, I manually saved everything to a Western Digital MyStudio 1 TB hard drive that I had just for the purposes of a second back up.  Anyway, I tried importing the pictures onto the new library, but couldn't find the hard copies at first, so that didn't work.  I then tried deleting the iPhoto Library that came with new operating system, then copying my old backup onto the new hard drive...that didn't work either.  However, when I right clicked on the iPhoto Library icon on my external hard drive (the original) and clicked on "show package contents," the folder not only contained the originals, but they were still organized by year and event just as I had them originally! 
    So, then I thought "why don't I try just importing the pictures directly into the new iPhoto Library!"
    I tested it out, and sure enough, it worked!  I then tried importing an entire folder (which, was actually the name of the event), and again it worked!  So, I literally clicked and dragged my entire 2007-2009 library of pictures (which was about 35 GB) back into my iPhoto Library!  AND, this only took about 30 minutes to download, enough time for me to write this post and the following instructions to Recap: 
              1. Open your new iPhoto Library
              2. Go to wherever your ORIGINAL iPhoto Library is saved/backed up, then Right-click (or Control click) on the iPhoto icon 
              3. Click on "Show Package Contents"
              4. Go to the folder called "Originals" or "Master"
              5. Click and drag everything INSIDE the folder (not the folder itself) to your new iPhoto Library
              6. DO NOT try Importing from inside iPhoto!  For some reaseon, iPhoto can't see these images, but I promise, they're there! 
    I assume this could work on other iLife programs, but luckily I have MobileMe and my iCalendar updated itself, though I did have to do some tweeking...
    Hope this helps other people out, GOOD LUCK! 

    I'm re-posting the answer to this problem so I can show it has been answered: 
    Open your new iPhoto Library 
    Go to wherever your ORIGINAL iPhoto Library is saved/backed up, then Right-click (or Control click) on the iPhoto icon
    Click on "Show Package Contents"
    Go to the folder called "Originals" or "Master"
    Click and drag everything INSIDE the folder (not the folder itself) to your new iPhoto Library
    DO NOT try Importing from inside iPhoto!  For some reason, iPhoto can't see these images, but I promise, they're there!
              GOOD LUCK!!!

  • StarOffice 8 CDE Icon and Document File Extension Associations

    I recently upgraded to Solaris 10 (5/08). With previous versions of Solaris, I installed StarOffice 7 from CD and it placed the nice little icon in the CDE desktop panel and it created StarOffice associations to all the typical office file extensions (ie. .doc, .xls, etc.). I would like to use the StarOffice 8 that is bundled with Solaris 10. Is there an installation step or some other way to automatically setup the CDE icon and the file extension associations?

  • IPhoto 08 and Deleting Files

    I recently upgraded from iLife 06 to ILife 08 and having major problems with new version of *IPhoto 08.* First and foremost, messages began showing that my startup disk is almost full and to delete unwanted files. I'm assuming this is happening because of ILife 08 installation including SuperDuper and Lacie external hard drive. No matter, before doing any installations I did massive backups to external hard drive and cds. Once ILife 08 was installed, I began deleting unwanted pictures within *_IPhoto Library via the Finder_* including File browser when I had Photoshop open. Unbeknownst to me, this is not recommended due to possible corruption of IPhoto. OK, apparent this is happening because when I go to IPhoto there are blank photos when I do a full screen.
    My question is what is the best way to delete ALL originals and duplicates of older iphoto 06 pictures including other unwanted pictures in current IPhoto 08 Library? Will I have to uninstall IPhoto 08 then go into my finder and start deleting pictures like I used to do whenever I wanted to delete files? Of course, even then I always had blank photos within IPhoto.
    BTW, with ILife 08 installed, I have deleted (trashed) all sorts of applications such as iMovie, and iDVD to free up space. This has made barely any difference. My main criteria is to delete HUGE pictures no longer needed in my IPhoto 06 (or rather IPhoto 08 too) Library Folders. Also considering I'm tapped with my current disk space, currently unable to download any programs such as duplicate annihilator, etc.
    Hope this isn't to confusing. Any help overwhelmingly appreciated!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Let's get this out of the way:
    Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
    The way to delete pics from iPhoto is to do it in the iPhoto Window. Drag the pics from the Library to the iPhoto trash. iPhoto Menu -> Empty the trash.
    Deleting a pic here or there is not going to make a difference to your HD space? How big are these pics? 2 - 5 mb if they're from a point and shoot camera, 10 - 15 from a dslr? Why not move your library to the external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    As you've been mucking about in the iPhoto Library Folder then you'll need to start over and create and populate a new library:
    To create and populate a new 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.
    To use Photoshop with iPhoto:
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • Iphoto 08 and avi files

    I am still using iphoto 08 (version 7.1.5) on my G5. I downloaded all my pictures and avi files from my Nikon d90 and it seemed fine. I watched each avi once and they played fine but now they are AWOL! All i have is 156k thumbnail. Are they gone forever? What can i do? Those videos were for a work project.
    Thanks

  • How do I recover missing iPhoto albums and pictures?

    A week ago, all my iPhoto Albums disappeared that normally would appear in the left iPhoto column under LIBRARY and RECENT. When I opened the iPhoto app from both the Dock and the Applications folder, an iPhoto window opens and asks if I would like to set up my iPhoto Library. The first few times this happened, I ignored the request and tried again with the same results.
    I tried unsuccessfully finding and restoring the iPhoto Library Database from my external 3TB Time Machine hard drive. I couldn't find any full iPhoto Library Database backup and my backups go back a year. Instead, all I found and restored are photos and videos that were saved outside of iPhoto on the Desktop and in hard drive folders. Several months ago, there was a similar occurrence, but I was able to restore the Library Database. With no luck this time, I eventually allowed iPhoto to start up as if it was being installed for the first time and I never had the option to load an earlier backup Library Database or choose an automatic restore from an earlier version or backup.
    While trying to go through various recovery choices with iPhoto, I started getting iCloud login popups asking for my Apple ID and password. I kept cancelling these because I had not previously set up iCloud. When iCloud messages persisted, I finally used my ID and password and the popups stopped. I'm clueless why this was happening and I remain clueless as to what occurred after I tried many cancellations, then finally entered my ID and password. Since then (two days ago), there has been no evidence of iCloud operating or requiring my attention.
    After holding the command+option keys to start the iPhoto app, I've tried all the radio button options, one at a time, to Repair, Rebuild, Recover, Examine with no luck. Instead, all that is found are the same files I already mentioned. When I start iPhoto now after allowing it to start up from scratch, the Library Database shows iPhoto Library Recovered Photos (2 photos), Resources (176 photos), a CD backup, Desktop, and lots of short collections of media, resources, thumbnails, and other graphics images I don't recognize and are probably Invisibles. The only photos that appear when Photos is clicked in the left colum of iPhoto are photos that were apparently imported from backed up desktop and hard drive folders. All the photos that were previously imported to iPhoto and stored in iPhoto albums no longer appear individually or in albums in the left column of iPhoto.
    I'm using a one-year old iMac running Mac OS X Version 10.7.5 with iPhoto '11 Version 9.2 (626).
    I'm reasonably confident the phtoos and albums are recoverable somewhere, but I'm at a loss to find out where. I've been running Macs since 1984 and this is the first time I have been totally unable to explain or recover from an OS, hardware, or app-level problem.
    Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated. If absolutely necessary, I could pack up all my gear and take it to an Apple office 23 miles away for help.

    My problem was not so much the loss of pictures, but the loss of their virtual association into albums I created because the albums were no longer appearing when iPhoto was started. I was reluctant to do any reinstalls of the OS, Tme Machine, or iPhoto because I was confident the existing installs were as they should be. Instead, I explored earlier Time Machine backups of iPhoto-related files and folders. I tried several different files/folders to see what I could find when I restored and opened them. To my delight, I found an earlier "iPhoto Library (original)" that, once I restored it to my desktop, iPhoto automatically found the virtual album-photo associations that existed prior to the earlier loss of albums; the restored albums appea as they should in the left column of iPhoto. This "fix" was not intuitively obvious to me, but I was pleased it worked.
    A simple iPhoto explanation through iPhoto Help would have been very helpful if the explanation would have said iPhoto Album and Smart Album photo associations are logical, not physical, and the associations and album names are store in the iPhoto Library folder.
    At this point, I'm hesitant to move the restored "iPhoto Library (original)" from the desktop, perhaps to the Applications folder, because I don't want to run the risk of undoing what seems to be working. Should I leave this on the desktop or move it?

  • Link missing from iPhoto Library to picture files

    In iPhoto '08 when pointing to a picture and using drop down box to "show original file" it shows the linkage/ file tree diagram from picture to next level up subdirectory to Original to iPhoto Library to Pictures. Yet when looking for my picture files from Finder to User to Pictures to iPhoto Library there is no linkage to the Original subdirectory. NB there is no arrow under the iPhoto Library indicating a subdirectory. All that shows is a Preview column showing size of the pictures in the file but no file. How can this be fixed so I can find pcitures from Finders approach.

    Thanks. First of all, I really appreciate the time you are taking to try and help me.
    To begin, attaching pictures for emailing purposes wasn't the main problem for me, because I am using Mail to read my Yahoo mail, and have been using the email button in the iPhoto app.
    My frustrations were when I was on a site, such as Shutterfly, snapfish, and I was choosing the pictures that I wanted to upload. I have thousands of pictures and because I don't keyword or rename them, I was used to being able to find the pictures I wanted by the visual in file system. Based on the folder names. I guess I am confused, because when I click the browse button, I am presented with what looks like a finder window. So, maybe my question is how to view the picture files via the finder. I was referring to your suggestion:
    "Also, for 10.5 users: If you use the extended Open or Attach dialogue (with Column View) you can scroll to the bottom of the Shortcuts and find the Media browser there. Select any pic you want from there."
    When I do the above, I still keep just launching the app. not seeing the files that are hidden within.
    I did follow your instuctions below, but was unable to attach. Only when I dragged the photo to Safari on the dashboard, did it open in a separate Safari browser. It did not link or merge with the attach window.
    Open Safari and go to attach a pic to an Email. The attach window descends in Safari
    Now, pop back to the iPhoto Window and drag the pic from the iPhoto Window to the attach window
    Does that work?
    If it does, you can then try replacing the iPhoto Window and use the Media Browser window, but remember you're dragging from the browser to the Safari window, not trying to find a file via the Attach window.
    Yes but iPhoto is nothing like Windows Explorer. If you want to mimic that format you would use the Finder, not iPhoto. iPhoto is a database application, a photo organiser, not the main Computer filing system.
    I guess this is more what I would appreciate help with. Although, I think I need to spend a little more time in iPhoto creating Albums, versus the Events that all of my pictures have be organized in by default.
    I think you might have misunderstood my comment below...I just want to be able to find the photo files with a visual not just the file name. Because I have no other way to find them in a browse situation.
    Of course, you'll be able to do the same. But why you would want to work via "little thumbnails" when you can do so in more comfort via the Media Browser or the iPhoto Window I don't know.
    I was formerly using Picasa on my Windows computer, which is a really easy app. and when I created a new album, it was very easy to find in the Windows Explorer when browsing for an upload. Obviously I need a little more time with the iPhoto, but I have been trying to do this for about 2 months when I got the computer, with what I thought was pretty decent common computer knowledge, but feel totally lost. I guess I feel a little bummed that I made a switch to Mac based on the concept that it was simpler, but it has proven to be much for difficult to do the very basic things I use my computer for everyday.
    You've changed Computer, Operating System and now you've made an enormous change from using the File System to organise your pics to using a Photo Organiser. There's going to be change involved, and some learning to be done.
    Thank you again for your time.

  • IWeb Podcast - Drag and Drop Audio and Picture Files

    I have been using iWeb the last few days to create a web site that includes some podcasts. I currently have three podcasts as a part of the site. I have been able to get two of the podcasts to work correctly but the third one, no matter how many times I recreate it seems to be where the difficulty lies.
    The podcast page gives me the opportunity to drag and drop an audio file and a picture file onto the page. As best I can tell, when I drop the audio file onto the page, things seem to be fine. When I drop the picture file onto the object, the audio clip seems to disappear. I have tried dropping the picture file first with basically the same results.
    A couple of more things. I created the original podcast file in GB3. I have found I can't import the podcasting file directly form GB because I end up with a very large file (>60GB) for the audio portion. So, I share the audio file to disk as an M4a file. When I add the audio to the podcast page in iWeb, I drag the audio file from Finder onto the object. The picture I have dropped onto the podcast page both from the Media Browser and from Finder. The results are the same.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Dave

    I think you're asking the question in the wrong forum. From what you posted, there's nothing wrong with GB, you should post in the iWeb forum where you're more likely to get useful and accurate answers about, well, iWeb.

  • Rebuilding iPhoto database and missing files

    Heya,
    I got a corrupt iPhoto6 database after a power failure (but had a backup) while travelling. I didnt have the backup drive handy(was far away), so I kept adding new files to this corrupt database. I also began making modifications.
    Now I want the two together and keep all the modifications too. I foolishly thought I could: add to the backup the new "rolls" with the Originals and Modified folders and then rebuild the database.
    Why 'rebuilding the database' doesnt involve scanning through these two directories I don't know, because this doesnt work. I thought maybe the permissions were wrong, but that doesnt seem to be it.
    So what the best way - while retaining the modifications Ive made to my new rolls - to add everything back to the Master/non-corrupted database. A Merge with iPhoto Library Manager? Could a rebuilt with it work(Looks like no, since it only scans the xml file).
    cheers,
    matt
    Intel Mac mini Mac OS X (10.4.8)

    Matt:
    Here's what I think is your only option to retain some of the modifications that are in the library and get all of your photos back.
    1 - create a new library.
    2 - with the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager copy all of the albums and rolls from the current library into the new one. This will retain your rolls and albums, keywords, and comments but not slideshows, books, etc.
    3 - copy the Originals folder from the current library to the desktop.
    4 - drag the Originals folder into the open iPhoto window. You should get a window asking if you want to import duplicates or not - select not.
    That will give you the closest you can get to what you had before the crash with the after crash modifications.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB file backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

    I recently made an iphoto book on my husbands macbook pro and want to move the file to my imac.  How do I copy the file and place it on my imac?  Thank you in advance.

    You can not. You can only move the entire library. Books do not exist seperate from the database. You can duplicate the library and delete very thing except the book to make it smaller

  • IPhoto 6 and RAW files a hint of what's to come?

    Anyone notice that iPhoto 6 can send a raw file to an external editor?
    Set up an external editor in the preferences and then go to advanced and set the preference to send raw to external editor.
    Choose photoshop as your external editor and the image is opened in ACR. However, once you have done this there is no way to save it so that iPhoto recognizes the changes. You must save it and then import the tiff, jpeg, or psd. The images are not tied together as original and edited version. To get that, must allow core image to convert the image and then send that to photoshop. This is half the solution needed to have great Photoshop integration.
    I would think (hope) that this is an indicator of things to come. If Aperture gets the ability to send a raw original (master) out to photoshop and then "import" the resulting file (tiff, psd) as a "second" master (some thing iPhoto currently can't do), well, that would be progress.
    We could then choose which raw processing engine to use. Choose apples and you save on space, choose Adobe and you get ACR quality at the cost of a BIG tiff or psd in your library. I do think it is way to much to ask that Aperture understand Adobes sidecar files or instructions imbedded in a dng.
    Additionally, iPhoto 6 can be set to use "external" files instead of coping everything into the library. It does make a full size jpeg of raws at import time, so space becomes an issue quickly.
    And, oh yea, this is not an opportunity to start yet one more flame apple thread, we've heard it all and it has grow tiring.

    This has worked since iPhoto 5 but just a slightly different set of options. You could always for the first edit, open the RAW file in any editor (as RAW). However, and as you have stated, you can't directly save it back to iPhoto. Aperture kind of reversed this a bit by not allowing you to directly open the RAW in an external editor.

  • Makepkg and incorrect file extension of the source archive

    Hi,
    I want to create a PKGBUILD for a program distributed as a .tar.gz source archive, except that it's really a .tar archive.
    Thus, makepkg fails because it uses the wrong tar option.
    Now I'm wondering what the best way is to deal with this situation. I just tried placing a "mv foo.tar.gz foo.tar" line before the build() function, but that didn't get executed. Inside build() would be too late, because makepkg runs it after extracting.
    I'm not looking for a solution on how to install it -- I can just manually download and rename the file, then edit the PKGBUILD accordingly. But the PKGBUILD resp. makepkg should cope with that, not the user by manually downloading/renaming things. So I'm looking for a way how to do that from inside that file.
    Guess I should do a feature request: makepkg should detect the archive file correctly (e.g. using "file"), not just by looking at the extension which could be wrong.

    tomk wrote:
    Best solution in the long term is, of course, to ask the developers to correct their mistake.
    In the meantime, although it's not ideal, there is no problem with running tar xf inside the build() function.
    the problem is, he can't. Makepkg barfs when it cant untarball it.
    In the meantime, download the source, and untar it in the build() function.
    Also file a bug, maybe makepkg should use some 'file' (man file) magic to determine what it is.
