Iphoto 7 no longer allows me to print christmas cards

I'm trying to print christmas cards, like I have for years, but now iphoto 7 is no longer supported, when i try to upgrade iphoto, it tells me i also need to upgrade my operating system (OSX 10.6.8)... really? do I need a whole new "computer" to print these cards? Also, why can't I talk to a tech person from apple and have to use this support group instead?...

Look at the bottom of this page
Shop the Apple Online Store (1-800-MY-APPLE), visit an Apple Retail Store, or find a reseller.
Or at the bottom of Apple.com
Shop the Apple Online Store (1-800-MY-APPLE), visit an Apple Retail Store, or find a reseller.
or any of a thousand other places
I find no phone number to call for apple support and when I tried to have them call me
And this makes no sense at all - there is no phone number and when you call the phone number (that you can not see) they tell you that you are not eligible ??????????????

Trying to print Christmas card envelopes

I have a photosmart D7260 printer and am trying to print Christmas card envelopes, not a standard size, and Word allowed me to enter the size but the printer refuses to recognize it as the right size, says Mismatched size paper

lisaps:
The default paper size of the greeting card is 7" x 10". You need to be able to print a borderless 7 x 10 which is not supported by most printers. If you have a 3rd party editor, like Photoshop Elements, that can handle layers check out my Tutorial No. 8 for a method to print borderless cards.
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.

How do I get my Iphone 4s photos to a store printer like Walmart to print Christmas cards?

how do I get my Iphone 4s photos to a store printer like Walmart to print Christmas cards? I have a windows PC, and am new to owning an Iphone so am pretty dumb about how to do this, and very late in getting my cards out this year! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

IPhoto 08 makes it difficult to print greeting cards

It seems to me that it should be easier to print greeting cards yourself from iPhoto. I have tried many ways and there are no options to adjust the print size. No one makes paper the correct size, and printing on a Letter sized page doesn't work. In fact, it seems to crop the bottom of the page off even printing on a larger paper.
Has anyone had luck printing cards? The idea of ordering them seems absurd.

Yes, the card feature is designed to encourage ordering thru Apple. If you have a 3rd party image editor that handles layers, like Photoshop Elements for Mac, you can follow Tutorial #8 to print cards.
Happy Holidays

Design and Print christmas cards with photo I supply on my photosmart 7520

I would like to design a christmas card (like I can so on line with snapfish) using a photo I supply and then print them on my photosmart 7520 on standard 4x6 photo paper. How can I do this? Do I need special software?

Canon C2550 no longer allows Macbook to print...

Hello everybody!
I recently moved to a new office and began printing to our Cannon ir C2550. I did the basic install when I arrived and all was good (except for the machine being old and cranky.) However, out of the blue this week my computer has stopped printing to the machine all together. I don't get any error codes or anything. I send a job to the printer and nothing happens. In the Print progress screen it just says "Printing - Connected to Printer." Regardless of how long I leave it nothing happens. Does anybody have any idea of what it could be?

To add the iR C2550 to your Mac, you would have entered its IP address. If you still know that IP address, then open a web browser and enter that as the URL. This action should result in you connecting to the internal web page of the Canon. If this does not occur, then along the lines of what Greg is saying, your Mac's IP address may have changed and this will stop you from printing. So compare what IP address and subnet mask is set in your Mac to the copier. Typically the first three sets of numbers in an IPv4 address should be the same, while the last number is your network address and should be different.

New network no longer allow me to print/scan wirelessly

Hi, I had a new Apple nework created, updating an old Airport with a new one. Printing and Scanning no longer work with my Officejet 6600, even though I have re-set up the All in one and sucessfully with the network name (actually, same name just different airport).
I am able to print using USB but I cannot scan.
I am happy to be able to do it all with USB, if I cannot figure out the wireless issues.
Thank you,

Hi,
You can try downloading and run HP Print and Scan Dr utility from link below to troubleshoot the issue.

IPhoto 6.0.6 text not printed on cards and book

I bought via iPhoto cards and entered texts. The text was not printed when I received it. A few days later ordered a hardcopy book : same problem.
All texts are missing except the text on the cover of the book. What can it be ?

Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
Report the problem to Apple - they will refund your cost and may have a solution
US page - you probably should search for the returns page for Belgium - http://www.apple.com/support/photoservices/returns/
Did you preview the book and the card before sending - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 ?
Doe the preview show the text?
Is there anything unusual about the text that did not print?

My Time Capsule expired and no longer works. My printer (a HP) will now not work as it still wishes to connect through the Time Capsule. It will not allow itself be recognised through a USB connection to my Mac. Anyone got any ideas?

You will need to install the printer on your Mac
Open System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
Open Print & Fax
Click the + (plus) button at the bottom of the printer list
Wait for your printer to appear in the next box, then click it to highlight it
Click Add at the lower right
Be sure to select the correct printer when you try to print as you will see your printer listed twice. Good idea to make the printer now installed on your Mac the default printer so you do not have to choose which printer to use each time you want to print.
You can also go into Print & Fax, select the printer associated with the Time Capsule and click the - (minus) button if you want to delete that location.

Recently, iPhoto will no longer allow my to export photos onto my folders on my desktop. It just says that it is unable to create file. Not sure why this is happening?

iPhoto is no longer allowing me to export & resize photos into a file on my desktop. It just states that it is Unable to create file on desktop. I'm not sure what this means on how to correct this issue. Any support would be greatly appreciated!

Then do the following:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
If Fix #1 fails to help continue with:
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download IPhoto Library Manager 4 for OS XC 10.6.8 and iPhoto 8.1.2 and later or iPhoto Library Manager 3 (for OS X 10.5.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and earlier) 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 (iPLM 3) or Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu (iPLM 4) 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.

Have you launched and tired Image Capture? When it's launched with the iPad connected the photos will display in the window. Select those you want to upload and use the Import to: menu and select Other. Navigate to the Desktop and select the folder you created to hold those photos.

When I upgraded to Mountain Lion on my iMac, it will no longer allow me to use selected folders from iPhoto to run as my screen saver. Is there anything I can do to fix that?

When I upgraded to Mountain Lion on my iMac, it will no longer allow me to use selected folders from iPhoto to run as my screen saver. Is there anything I can do to fix that? Thanks for your help.

Does this involve iPhoto i some way? Seems more like an issue with your web browser.

Videos on iPhoto no longer play. All was fine as I was organizing photos, but suddenly no more videos would play. What has happened?

Videos on iPhoto no longer play. All was fine as I was organizing photos, but suddenly no more videos would play. What has happened?

Something went wrong. Now for a useful answer...
Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- 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.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.
