IPhoto 7.1.4 won't print

Installed iPhoto 7.1.4, but now I can't print. Sez there are no themes available. But they are in the root library Application Support folder—and the app lives in the root application folder. Copied themes into ~/Library/Application Support/iPhoto just to see and it didn't help. Tried all the usual fixes: repair permissions, restarted app and OS, etc.
MacFixIt say tI'd find a Theme folder in ~/Library/Application Support/iPhoto and to copy it to /Library/Application Support/iPhoto. But I didn't have onenthere to begin with just in ~/Library/Application Support/iPhoto.
Reloaded 7.1.3 off another machine (on vacation and don't have disk) but now it still won't print.
Anyone have an thoughts?

Restoring iPhoto Themes
First look in your User/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If you find it there move it to the HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder and reboot. Then try iPhoto again. That may save you having to go thru the reinstallation process described below:
1 - delete the current application.
2 - delete any files with iPhoto in the file name that reside in your HD/Library/Receipts folder.
3 - delete the Themes folder from your User/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder. Also look in the HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If there is one there then delete it also.
5 - boot into the system disk that came with your computer and do a custom install selecting only iPhoto.
After installing reinstall the iPhoto 7.1.1 updater again followed by a repair of disk permissions with Disk Utility. Also make sure you're running the latest Quicktime, 7.3.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • IPhoto 9.1.5 Won't Print; Theme Problem

    Running 10.6.8 and recently I became unable to print my own photos on iPhoto 9.1.5. I have done everything I can think to do. Completely reinstalled 9.1.5 from iWork's and my Time Machine using 7/13/11 content. Nothing worked. Also did the usual trash preferences and repair disk permissions. I do have iPhoto themes( Themes, Themes Common and Themes db) at HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto/Themes.
    Each time I attempt to print I get this message:
    "No Available Themes   There were no themes located. Until at least one theme has been installed, this feature will be unavailable."
    Input will be appreciated.

  • IPhoto 6.0.6 won't print after crash

    I successfully printed from my iMac (10.4.9) over my AirPort network to my Canon MP530 which is shared from my MacBook (also running 10.4.9). When I went to print another photo, iPhoto crashed. I reopened it, but whenever I would try to print a photo, the File menu in iPhoto would highlight for about 15 seconds and the beachball would spin, then nothing would happen.
    I deleted the com.apple.iphoto pref from the Preferences folder, and I deleted the shared printer, but I can't even get the print dialog to display.
    Any ideas?
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   iPhoto 6.0.6

    Steven:
    Log into another account and try from there. If you can't print from iPhoto in the other account then a reinstall of iPhoto probably is indicated. If the reinstall doesn't help, download and run the 10.4.9 COMBO updater followed by a repair of disk permissions.

  • HP Envy 5530-won't print in color in iPhoto

    I'm not sure if anybody is having this same problem but iPhoto 9.5.1 won't let me print in color on my new HP Envy 5530. It's brand new and I have color ink in it, but I'm only shown and option to print in black and white. Has anybody run into this problem?
    Thanks

    Have you checked the HP website to see if you have the latest printer drivers for your model?

  • IPhoto won't print

    This issue began a more major problem in which all of my wife's pictures disappeared. That's been solved, and the pictures are back. In order to keep that thread from becoming too long and complicated I'm reposting in this new thread the original problem.
    A couple of days ago my wife did the automatic update to iPhoto 6.0.6. Following that it ceased printing on our Epson Stylus CX4200. Other programs print normally; it is only iPhoto that has a problem. I have downloaded all the latest drivers from Epson, but it hasn't helped. My own two computers also won't print from iPhoto, though I haven't updated their drivers.
    I just identified that it will print 8.5 x 11 paper, but it won't print 4 x 6 photos.
    iMac G4 + PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I didn't get any replies to this problem, but eventually I was able to figure out the fix. I'll post it here in case someone else runs into this problem.
    The printer instruction manual (PDF file) explains how to delete the printer drivers and reinstall. It also explains how to delete and reinstall the program that controls the scanning function (that had also quit working). When I got through deleting and reinstalling everything worked again.
    Downloading updated drivers from the company that made the printer often fixes this kind of problem, but not in this case. Reinstalling the older drivers that came with the printer did the trick.

  • Iphoto won't print.  Never had a problem before.

    iphoto won't print.  I get the spinning wheel.  Repaired disk thinks I have Epson...?  I have HD and a Canon.  Can you help me?

    Go to the System/Printers & Scanners preference pane and remove the printerd that str there.  Then add it back and try again. If that fails try what's discussed in this Apple document:   OS X Yosemite: Reset the printing system

  • Iphoto won't print to Epson Photomate Delux

    I can print to my Epson Photomate Delux using PREVIEW and from PHOTOSHOP, but NOT from iphoto. When I try to print from iphoto, the pics go on hold in the print box. I have tried to hit RESUME, but it just goes back on hold. One other thing, the pics that load from PS or PREVIEW show their names, but the ones that import from iphoto all say "untitled."
    Why can't iphoto talk to my printer? It used to work (I haven't used the printer in several months). I've downloaded new drivers, restarted everything, blah, blah, blah...all to the same result. Any thoughts? I'm plugged in using a USB cable.
    Thanks

    One more thing, if the queue is stalled with multiple pics from different programs (PS, PREVIERW, ihphoto) printing will begin again after I delete the "untitled" pics from iphoto.
    Thanks.

  • IPhoto 08 won't print

    Can move an image out of iPhoto and into, say, preview and print it but can't print it from iPhoto.
    Trashed driver, then reinstalled it, still no joy.
    Canon s300, alle Canon went thru a lot of steps, still can print from other apps but not from iPhoto.
    Help ?

    Delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and then try printing again. Also have you rebooted your Mac recently? If you're the type to just sleep it, rebooting can do much good.

  • Epson Stylus C88+ won't print from iPhoto 6

    Recently bought an Epson Stylus C88+ printer to replace the Stylus C86 that is not printing well anymore. Discovered that the C88+ does not print from iPhoto 6.0.5! The printer does print from Photoshop Elements 2 and does print documents fine. When we choose "Apple P" it starts the printing process, makes the starting noise, but then stops and the red exclamation point appears next to the printer icon on the dock. The original driver came from the printer's install CD that came with printer. I had seen some instructions from Epson about removing and reinstalling the printer driver, so I have done the following: 1) removed the 2 printers above from the Printer Setup Utility, 2) reset the printing system in Printer Setup Utility, 3) removed the Epson folder from the Library folder in Mac HD, 4) deleted the Epson printer receipts from the Library folder in Mac HD, and 5) reinstalled the C88+ driver from the Epson website. It still does the same as before. Any othe ideas?

    I'm not sure what I should be looking for in Page setup settings and iPhoto print window. How do I check the driver in Printer Setup Utility? I already added the printer after reinstalling the driver from the Epson website; Printer setup utility seemed to find the driver when I did that because the printer is listed and printer is otherwise working.
    I also looked at Colosync utility as you suggested and found my computer under devices and verified the Profiles in Profile First Aid. Nothing was found wrong for any Epson device, only some Lexmark profiles were incorrect (they must be ones installed with Tiger that I don't use), so didn't do the repair.
    Here is what it says in System Profiler for the printer (doesn't actually say Epson USB and I wonder what the question mark means):
    Stylus C88:
    Status: Idle
    Print Server: Local
    Driver Version: 2.72
    Default: Yes
    URI: usb://EPSON/Stylus C88?serial=FGS020609051637250
    PPD: EPSON C88 Series (1)
    PPD File Version: 1.0
    PostScript Version: (3011.104) 0
    I'm not sure where they get that serial number from. The one on the back of the printer is totally different. I was a little suspicious that nowhere in the Printer setup utility or system profiler does it actually say I have a C88+; it just says C88 series, etc. It says on the C88+ download page says I would get driver v2.7aA. I guess this is the same as what I have. I was warned by Epson that the C88 and C88+ are 2 totally different printers, but when I checked the C88 download page it says I would get v2.5bA, so I don't think I downloaded the wrong driver.
    For anyone else who has the same problem, I have discovered that as a workaround I can open photos in Photoshop Elements from iPhoto and can print them using Elements, so I'm ok unless I want to try printing an iPhoto greeting card, etc.
    Thanks for any additional thoughts.

  • IPhoto '08 7.1.4 not Printing

  • Won't print

    I have reinstalled iphoto so it would no longer say it would not print due to no themes. Now it doesn't say anything, it just won't print.
    I do have themes on my HD, not user. I have looked through the posts but haven't found anything that addresses my problem.
    Thanks,
    mleamy

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You may have to reinstall iPhoto anyway. Delete the current applicaiton, the themes folder and any file with iPhoto in the file name that resides in the HD/Library/Receipts folder. Reinstall iPhoto from the disk it came on, run the latest update, repair disk permissions, reboot and try again.

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on eight different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
