IPhoto 7 importing iPhoto 6 data: way too many images

In iPhoto 7 (aka iPhoto '08) on 10.4.10 MBP, I mounted a hard drive with data from another Mac (using iPhoto 6, 10.3.9); this library has about 32,000 items. On import, iPhoto 7 sees 47,000+ images! The pics it's importing look like deleted and un-rotated ones - aargh! (:-( Please tell me it's not importing deleted, recovered and otherwise unwanted or duplicate images.

mactester:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. As TD pointed out if you imported the V6 library either via the menu or by dragging the library into the open iPhoto 7 window you'll get every image file in the library.
iPhoto Library Manager will copy the rolls or albums from one to another library and keep the metadata intact. HOWEVER, both libraries must be at the save version. So you'll need to upgrade that other library by opening it with iPhoto 7 and doing the converting. Then iPLM can copy the photos to the primary library like this.
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 created 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. 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.

  • There are way too many photos on my internal hard drive. I have older libraries, and newer libraires in iPhoto and Aperture 2.  What is the best way to find and reduce the number of duplicate photos/libraries  before upgrading to Aperture 3?

    Good idea.
    Back up first.
    I would probably wait for the merge function of the latest version before merging. Be sure to verify every merge.
    Merge Libraries, then from within Aperture move images to referenced on external hard drives.

  • I take a lot of people shots and have way too many out of focus pics.

    I have way too many out of focus shots.  I usually use tv mode with the shutter set at least 250 with the anti shake on.  I know there is a balance of aperature, iso and they seem to be close enough for lighting but the out of focus drives me nuts. This is the most important aspect of a pic in my opinion. I have sent my T2i in for focus issues two times and cannot tell a difference.  Any suggestions????
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    We'd probably have to see your shots with EXIF data to provide a specific response.
    Canon did a 3-part video on how the AF system works with B&H Photo.  You can find the videos on YouTube... here's the link to part I:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAx86nblZ2g
    I seem to recall each part is about 30 minutes, but well worth the time in what you'll learn about the focus system that you might not have known.
    A LOT of factors can result in out of focus images.  Camera movement (slow shutter speed during a hand-held shot) is just one of many possibilities.

  • I want ro remove all of the default Firefox bookmarks. There are way too many and none of which are usefull to me. I would like to make my old IE Favorites folder the default. How can I do this?

    I need to remove the default Firefox bookmarks.
    There are way too many and none of which are usefull to me.
    Also, I am vision impaired and reading through such a long list is very eye-fatigueing to me.
    I would like to make my old IE Favorites folder the default. How can I do this?

    Did you import an iPhoto Library from the old Hard Drive? Do you still have that old Library?
    The way to clear out a Library is to Export the photos - Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
    For the annoying start-up message:
    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.

  • Photoshop CS5 doesn't work properly after opening too many images

    Hi
    This is my very first post.
    I'm also new to CS5. I do hundreds of photo touching/cropping that is a part of my job for web.
    Everything is running fine but when ever I open too many images in Photoshop CS5 it doesn't work, I mean it doesn't hang or freezes it just open all files and then doesn't show any images (just blank) and when I closes 20/30 or more images then it get fine.
    I thought it might a RAM problem but i have i3 processor with 4GB of RAM. I have also increased memory usage from 60% to 80% but I'm still facing the same problem.
    Would like to tell that in the previous version of CS3 I never got this problem and worked fine.
    thanks

    Disabling OpenGL entirely is draconian.
    You could try, if it's not already set that way, going into the Advanced settings and switching OpenGL to "Basic" mode, which uses fewer resources.

  • How do you sync contacts with gmail, not other place on computer? I don't know where the contacts came from on that are now on my new phone. There are way too many and it is not my list of contacts I have on gmail. Where else is this from?

    I don't know where the contacts came from on that are now on my new phone. There are way too many and it is not my list of contacts I have on gmail. Where else is this from? I spent a LONG time on gmail going through my list of contacts. There were about 400 and I got it down to about 90. When I went to sync my new phone, ALL 400 synced.
    Thank you for any help!

    Sorry for the repeat...new here. OBVIOUSLY.

    There is no such Trojan or other malware known today that will do that using OS X nor has there ever been one. The most probable explanation is that somebody hacked into your e-mail account on the server, so you should change that password to something stronger right away. If it had come from your Mac then there would almost certainly be copies of those messages in your Sent Mail mailbox.

  • Firefox crashes when too many images are opened

    Okay, so, a problem that appeared in 4.0 for me, and hasn't gone away ever since.
    The problem is basically summarized in the short description - whenever too many heavy images are in the browser's tabs simultaneously, it slows down to a halt; then sometimes as I scroll it fails to redraw the page, with black non-redrawn area increasing as I scroll and disappearing as I change tabs back and forth.
    After a dozen seconds of such sad behaviour, the browser crashes.
    Sometimes, however, things go better. And it just crashes.
    The problem can be easily replicated with Save Images extension, say, on any photo hosting, or by opening
    http://danvolodar.livejournal.com/friends/big_picture
    It should be noted that 3.6 never had that problem, and opened pages where I aggregated thousands of images, - slowly, of course, but it ''did'' work. 4 and 5 do ''not''.

    Go to the address '''about:crashes''' and tell us your latest crash IDs. We can then look at the data specific to your crash and have a better idea of what is causing the problem.
    Or you can go to '''Start''' and type in the Vista search box '''%APPDATA%''' then click on '''Roaming''' then go to '''Mozilla>Firefox>Crash Reports>Submitted''' then open the .txt files and copy the Crash report ID that starts with '''bp-xxxxx-xxxx'''

  • Why Am I Having to Make Way Too Many Hard Restarts?

    Over the past couple of weeks, my wife and I have managed to lock up one or more programs to the point that it is necessary to shut down the computer using the power switch. The latest examples involve editing existing MS Word 2008 files in compatibility mode, but last week it was iTunes and I forget what other program.
    I switched to the Mac because Windows kept doing this sort of thing ...

    (1) We first noticed the problem after we had purchased a game called "Bejeweled 2".
    If it was me and I had a full backup prior to the installation of the game, I would restore to that point.
    I moved the game program to the trash,
    Moving the program to the trash does not delete the program. Everything is still on your hard disk and if something in that game is causing the hang, that piece of code is still on your computer.
    If the game has an "Uninstall" option on the install disk or in the downloaded DMG, I suggest running the Uninstall.
    Firmware updates?
    Normally those will come up in the Software Update window. Once in a while I log into http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/ then do a search on "Firmware" and my machine ID (Like iMac or MacBook Pro).
    I just noticed that my external LaCie 1 GB drive,
    I lost mine a few weeks ago as well. Odd. Shut down, unplug the drive, restart, then open Disk Utility. With Disk Utility running in the front window, plug in the LaCie drive and attempt to mount it.
    Mine would not come back up so I reformatted it - using the GUID option - and it has been running flawlessly ever since.
    Following is over the top, totally unnecessary OCD behavior of a nut who wants everything perfect. Feel free to totally ignore everything that follows.
    I started managing networks and supporting individual PCs back in the 1980s. I developed some odd habits. One thing I learned with DOS and Windows computers was that it was often easier to start over than to spend weeks chasing a problem. Once I moved to Macs, I kept my old habits.
    You probably do not want to copy my example, but here is what I do:
    1.) When I buy a new computer, I transfer the OS installation disks to an external hard disk using the Restore function of disk utility.
    2.) I also transfer all of my software installers to the same hard disk as disk images.
    3.) When software updates are available, I download the files from the Downloads page to the same external drive. (I don't do the installs from Software Update; I only use that to tell me what needs updating.)
    4.) When something goes really bad - almost always from third party software, almost never from Apple software - I wipe the hard drive on the computer and do a full clean reinstall from my external disk. Because EVERYthing - the OS, the updates, and all my applications - are on the external hard disk, the reinstall goes very fast.
    Of course, when I do the clean reinstall, I skip whatever application or utility I suspect caused my problem.
    The full clean reinstall takes up to three or four hours which I can do while watching an evening of TV. To me, this is a far far better use of my time than spending weeks trying to find that ONE application extension or preference file that is trashing my system.
    (By the way, when I do the clean install, I NEVER restore the Library from my back up. I restore all my data from back up, but I trash the old Libraries because whatever went wrong is still in there ... like a bad Ktext extension from a wayward game or widget.)
    Now just to prove I really am a NUT, my other system: I keep a firewire external drive cloned to my computer using SuperDuper! When I have updates or new applications, I shut down and boot from the clone. I install the update or the new application on the clone. If that doesn't crash my system, then I'll go ahead and reboot to the internal drive and repeat the installation.
    Yep. I have WAY too much time on my hands. But.... I lost all of my staff computers to a bad Windows service pack several years ago and I decided "never again". The Apple OS is not prone to those types of regular Windows disasters, and I have never lost critical data on a Mac, and I have never had an entire department off-line for a week due to a bad Mac OS update. Still, I am old, old habits die hard, so I do this stuff with my Macs at home.
    Of course I hope none of these extraordinary efforts are necessary in your case. With luck you can Uninstall the game, reformat your LaCie, and be back to flawless operation shortly.
    Hope all this helps ... (jk)

  • BUG - too many images crashes apps.

    Hello,
    I would like to report a bug to RIM. 
    When using a sketchting app (Paint book or Sketch), if I attempt to load an image, the application hangs and the keyboard and parts of the touchpad get disabled even after I have killed the application, also at this point File Manager will refuse to start. The only way to get it back to normal is to force a reboot.
    I have a 32Gig Playbook and have all of my Picassa photos synced to it.
    I believe that the large number of photos may be the reason for it crashing. 
    Does anyone else have this issue please?
    Cheers
    Alex

    How would this be a bug. How many images are loaded. Do you have enough memory available.

  • Imported video is way too fast!

    i'm using iMovie for the first time and I've been noticing all day that the video files I imported seem a little too fast. I compared them to the original videos, and guess what- the sound is sped up too! all the voices are a little too high-pitched and the video is a little too fast. At least the sound is in synch. But everyone sounds a little Chipmunky. 
    I have no idea what the frame rate for the original video files are, so I don't know how to fix it.
    Someone please help! This is driving me nuts!

    Hi honeybadgers
    If you click on a clip and bring up the inspector for clip/video/audio, the third section has "Speed" control where you can slow down or speed up the clip.  Slow the speed of the clip and the sound should become right too.
    Good luck

    Hi dkmi
    I'm having a very similar problem. What was it in this log that pinpointed RAM for you? I'd like to see if my logs have the same thing.
    Thanks!

  • IPhoto 09 has way too many duplicates

    I did not import twice, but iPhoto seems to be creating duplicates of many of my photos, and I am not sure why. I am not editing them, so that rules out iPhoto keeping a copy of the original and modified. Is there any way I can stop iPhoto from randomly duplicating photos? And is there a way I can remove those duplicates without searching for each and every one?

    1 - iPhoto does not "randomly" make duplicates
    2 - where are you seeing these - are they n the iPhoto window?
    3 - if you are using the finder (or the all images smart folder) to see them then you (and this in not advised) may be seeing modified versions that are created because you have auto rotate photos selected on your camera - to stop this change the option on the camera
    4 - if you are seeing them using the finder do not delete them or modify them in any way - you will corrupt your iPhoto library - and they are not duplicates - they are different in some way

  • Importing in iphoto 6 is taking way too long!

    I am having problems importing photos from my Nikon coolpix 5100 . When i first purchsed my imac it imported quick and easy with iphoto 6 and my camera, but now i am waiting just to import 48 photos. It comes up saying would you like to import 48 and i press import. IT finally imported after 15 minutes. Why did it take this long?

    Have you tried using a USB card reader? Saves wear and tear on your camera ports, plus less risk of data loss if the camera shuts down during transfer.
    Other than that, try reformat the card using the camera - but, of course, beware that reformatting will erase the card.
    Regards

  • HT4236 iPhoto not recognizing iPhone with too many photos.

    I recently took a lot of pictures using my iPhone (about 15,000 cos I was doing a time lapse). Now when iPhoto & Image Capture will not recognize my iPhone when I plug it in; the phone still shows up in iTunes.
    I hooked up another iPhone onto my Mac and it syncs fine. I also hooked up both phones onto a Windows PC, the other phone is working fine but I am unable to access the photos in the phone with 15,000 photos.
    How can I get my photos off the phone?
    Thanks in advance.

    This is from Mac Help. It is a good idea to create another account to use in troubleshooting situations such as this. After you create the new account, open iDVD from that account. Try creating a small project to see if you are having the same problems. Post back with your results.
    _Adding a new user account to your computer_
    You can create individual user accounts for each person who uses your computer. Each new user has a separate home folder and can adjust his or her own preferences without affecting other users.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Accounts.
    If some settings are dimmed, click the lock icon and type an administrator name and password.
    Click Add and type the user's name.
    If you don't want to use the short name generated automatically, type a new short name. (Once the account is created, you won't be able to change the short name.)
    Type the user's password in the Password and Verify boxes.
    Type a hint to help the user remember the password if they have trouble remembering it at login.
    Click Parental Controls and select options to determine what the user can do with the computer.
