IPhoto '11 Cannot Process Old Dates

I'm scanning old photos from my grandfather's days at Annapolis from 1916-1920, as well as his days at Pensacola in the 20's. There are lots of historical photos. As I add the photos, I attempt to change the date in iPhoto, but every time I do it, iPhoto adds a date in 1942. I then have to change it again to the correct date. It appears that iPhoto can only go back 68 years at a time. Anyone else have this problem?

It works fine for me
Do you have a custom date set in the system date preferences? If so set it to a standard non custom setting and see if that helps
you also can try renewing yoru iPhoto preferences - A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

  • After migrating to a new mac; iphoto library cannot save

    Hi,
    I'm faced with the problem that since the migration to a new mac; iphoto 11 cannot save any changes to the library. I can import, I can add an album, but if I quit Iphoto and start again every change is gone.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    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, faces and places 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.

  • New version of iPhoto - trying to import old albums back in

    I recently re-formatted my HD. My iPhoto library has always been on an external drive, so I assumed I'd just reload iPhoto and import the old albums back on from that drive. The later version of iPhoto that I now have is 5.0.4, and asked it to "Add to Library" via the File menu. (I chose the whole folder in the iPhoto folder). After processing that request overnight, all it did was give me an error message that a load of albums were not recognizable, but import all the individual photos from my old albums into one large mix of 4,000 photos, organized only by year. (In other words, all the album labels are gone.)
    Is there a better way to import these photos back into iPhoto and retaining the album label data?

    HI robert,
    If you still want to have the iPhoto Library on the external:
    Close iPhoto
    Drag the iPhoto Library folder in the Pictures folder to the desktop...you can delete this library if you wish.
    Hold down the Option key while launching iPhoto. Keep it held down until you get a message screen asking you to "create" a new library or "choose" another library to open. Hit the "choose" button.
    Navigate to the external drive and select the iPhoto Library there.
    Hit the "open" button.
    Since your library on the external is an older version, iPhoto will tell you it needs to update the library.
    It will take some time, so let iPhoto update your library. Once it is done, everything should be back the way it was.

  • I am getting a message that my iphoto library cannot be opened because I mades changes to my photos in a newer version of iphoto and I need to quit and use the newest version of iPhoto.  but i cannot update it and or access my photos.  Help.  thanks.

    I am getting a message that my iphoto library cannot be opened because I mades changes to my photos in a newer version of iphoto and I need to quit and use the newest version of iPhoto.  but in update, it says i have no updates.   i dont even remember making changes in iphoto.Help.  thanks.

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.

  • JSPM shows a "Cannot initialize application data" error

    Hi all
    When I start the jspm (go.bat) on my Solution Manager I get an error message after the login process. I attached the Trouble Ticket Report of the JSPM below (I made it anonymous). It is not a login issue (when I enter a wrong password, I get a different error message).
    What I already tried:
    - Updating the jspm (with SDM -->Remote Gui).
    - Deleting old files in profile Folder.
    - Checking if there is a "...U" folder in the kernel dir (as described in a note concerning this problem).
    - Stop/Start of the entire server.
    - Searching for hours in google/SDN/service.sap.
    I noticed on the start of the server that the sapcpe.exe Service (shown in sapmmc) is on "red" ("Could not bestarted") > I replaced all sapcpe.exe files in all kernel directories> Still red. Perhaps both problems are in context?

    Hi Manoj,
    Thanks. I copied the files manually to \usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\exe\nuc\NTAMD64. As I can see in the sapcpe.log the files now are automatically transfered to the second kernel dir (:\usr\sap\<SID>\DVEBMGS00\exe). Unfortunately for my Java SCS Instance (scs01) the sapcpe.exe is still red in sapmmc (I had already replaced the sapcpe.exe in the scs01 exe dir). In the sapcpe.log file of the SCS01 I see the following error:

    target:

    Is that possible there was the field ZDATE in your form interface/ context and now it is not? I guess some source has changed so the field in the form (binding to the not existing field) cannot be processed. Otto

  • How do I use old data files with a new installation in Oracle 9i

    I am in an unenviable position, with an unsupported database.
    We are running Oracle 9i on Windows XP. We are upgrading soon to Oracle 11g on a newer platform, but need to get our development environment working first.
    We lost a system that was running our development database without having a database export. The C drive was placed into a new system as the D drive.
    I have loaded Oracle 9i on the C drive, but I have been unable to determine how to point it to the existing data files on the D drive. My search skills may be the limiting factor here...
    We cannot simply load the drive as C, since the hardware is different.
    What are the steps to point the new database software at the data files on the D drive? Or, how do I copy the old data files into the new Oracle Home and have them recognized properly?
    Thanks for any advice.

    Are you stating that you don't know how to use COPY command?
    Can you recreate same directory structure on new C drive as exist on old C drive?
    Can you then drag & drop copies of the files?

  • Webi report gives old data in infoview on refresh

    Hi Experts,
    We are facing this strange issue on a webi report after some data updation in the SAP BW infocube.
    The webi report is based on the universe which is connected to an infocube in our BW dev system. After some data updation in the cube, we had tested the report in webi rich client and everything was working fine (the newly updated data from cube was reflecting). Now, we had tested the same report in infoview, but it was showing the old data only. We had tried exporting the report once again to infoview, refreshed universe structure; but without any success.
    What appeared to be even more strange was that the last refresh time was also not changing. While running the report in the infoview it hardly takes 40secs. But on refreshing it says the last refresh time was 5mins.
    Any help on this would be highly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Arun.

    it sounds like when you refresh report in Infoview you get the cached data, it never goes to the DB to fetch new one...
    You'll need to enable traces on webi processing server as well as SOFA/MDX tracing and review log files to see if requests are going to db or not and what is being returned.
    It could be at webi proc level or at your BW level.
    You can also try disabling webi caching in webi proc server properties and see what happens.

  • How do I transfer iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Air and retain the Albums?

    I just transferred my iPhoto library from an old Mac to a new Air by dragging the entire Library from my Pictures folder onto an external HD and then dragging from there onto my new Air. Transfer effected fine and all images now appear in iPhoto on the new Air. One problem: the Albums that were present on the left hand toolbar in iPhoto on my old machine are no longer there, so I have 50,000 images with no organization. Events are still there organized by date so that is something, but the Albums are not there and that is what I primarily relied on. Help please??

    The left hand pane is the source pane. Were both Macs running the same version of iPHoto?
    Try rebuilding the library with the option to Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.

  • Old iphoto library from an old computer's hard drive doesn't open anymore

    My old computer broke some time ago, but I got the hard drive saved with its iPhoto library. I used to be able to open the old iPhoto from the old computer's hard drive with my new computer connecting them, but now it says that the old iPhoto cannot be opened because I have to update to a newer version, but the only button I can press is 'quit'. So I don't know how to get a newer version of iPhoto to my old hard drive or how to get the pictures out of the old iPhoto. I have a separate iPhoto in my new computer.
    When I press 'show content' of the old iPhoto, there are no pictures anywhere.
    Please help, I have my old pictures there!
    Thank you!
    Best regards,
    Petra

    I used to be able to open the old iPhoto from the old computer's hard drive with my new computer connecting them, but now it says that the old iPhoto cannot be opened because I have to update to a newer version, but the only button I can press is 'quit'.
    Petra, do you mean, you opened the old iPhoto application from the old computer on your new computer or did you open the iPhoto Library?
    If you have a newer iPhoto version on your new computer, try to open your old iPhoto Library with the newer iPhoto version on your new Mac.
    What was the old iPhoto version on the old Mac, and which version do you have now? And which version of MacOS X?
    If you now have iPhoto 9.5.1 on your new computer, launch this version while holding down the options key (sometimes called alt key). This will bring up the library chooser panel. Select the old library on your old drive.  iPhoto should offer to upgrade the library., unless your old library has been created by a very old iPhoto version.
    If the old library had been created with iPhoto '08 or earlier, you need first to run the iPhoto Library Upgrader to prepare the library.
    See this document: iPhoto '11: About the Library Upgrader
    After running the upgrader, proceed as described above.

  • IPhoto changes the original creation date to 12/31/1969

    Hi folks, this is a problem I have been trying to resolve for a very long time.
    I have a large collection of pictures that I took with a Palm Zire 71 and Zire 72 going back to 2003. Every time I import the files with iPhoto (File > Import to Library), iPhoto changes the original creation dates of the jpgs to 12/31/1969. I have tried many different things... most recently I burned the files to a CD, confirmed that the original creation dates were still in tact, and tried importing with iPhoto right from the CD. I got the same result... all photos with the date 12/31/1969. All photos completely disorganized because of Palm's less than great file naming structure. I need to keep the creation dates intact for the iPhoto books I want to make with them, so changing the file names won't work as a solution. Even changing the files names to the creation dates plus a counter would be very difficult because it is over 1500 pictures. Does anyone else know of this problem and perhaps have a solution for it? Thanks!

    Thank you for the suggestion TD. But the Batch doesn't help in this case because so many of the photos were created on different days. I would still have to manually go into each of the creation dates and change them back to the original.
    That's just not feasible for 1500 files. iPhoto shouldn't be stripping the files of the creation dates at import to begin with. I'm hoping to find a way to get the import process to work properly for these files. The weird thing is that iPhoto doesn't seem to do this to files create on a more typical point and shoot camera,
    but only on these Palm files.

  • I prefer to arrange my photos by title but when I shut down Iphoto, my photos rearrange by date.  This is not acceptable for my growing library of snanned black and white ancestral photos. How do I get photos in events to stay in place ?

    I prefer to arrange my photos by title but when I shut down Iphoto, my photos rearrange by date.  This is not acceptable for my growing library of snanned black and white ancestral photos. How do I get photos in events to stay in place ?

    I actually am illiterate on the use of the finder to to view photos in folders.  I guess I will go to a class at the local Apple store for a lesson on the uses of finder .
    My method of viewing my photos are through events in I photo.
    1. Download  from camera or scan  in from old photos.
    2  I organize photos into events by occasion, or happenings in a certain year, or a group of photos with memorabilia of a certain person from childhood and on. etc.
    3.  Because Iphoto does not allow rearranging as I was able to do in my old PC with Corell,  I drag all of the photos to an " album" on the left side of sceen.  
    4.  I arrange photos in "order" after which I number each photo in sequence. I do this for a few of reasons.
              - if a photo is accidentally deleted I know it.  I can usually remedy this by checking my trash or
    rescanning.
              - I can sort by title without complications and this holds in "album"
    5.  The pictures will re arrange automatially to match the album in I photo.
    6.  This worked great in I-photo 09 but now in mountain lion the pictures in events go back to "
    sort by date" and will not hold "sort to Title"each time I photo is closed down.  What a nuicance it is to have to go  to view and click "title"  again and again every time Iphoto is opened.
    7. Can I go back to Photo 09? .
