IPhoto 9.5.1 - Trying to share 1 libary

Using iPhoto 9.5.1.... Trying to share one libary on a home network between 2 imacs, a mini mac server and a laptop (and two iphones) - I am organised and my husband is not - It would be great if we could share our family photos in one great master area on our home network - Sadly I hear this has been discontinued? If not please help

That is not really a feature of iPhoto - it can be done - sort of - using an external disk with ownership ignored - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1198

  • IPhoto not working after trying to share iPhoto between iMac and MacBook Pro

    I tried to share my photos on both my iMac and MacBook pro. It deleted all my photos in my MacBook and now it won't let me even open iPhoto in my iMac and gives me the following message "You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto."
    How do I rectify this? Purchase iPhoto from the App store?

    What version of iPhoto do you have on each system?
    It sound like you propbably have a newer version of iPhoto on the MBP - and thay you opened the iMac iPhoto library using the newer iPhoto - if you did you were warned that doing this would convert the library and that the older version of iPhoto could no longer open the library - the error message you list says that this is what you did
    If you did the only options are to restore your iMac backup from before you converted the library, upgrade iPhoto on the iMac the same version you have on your MBP purchasing from the App store or use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  to downgrade your library

  • I just downloaded an iphoto update and when I tried to share my photos was asked for email and password.  I must have typed in the info wrong because I keep getting an error message.   I don't see how to change the info to the correct mistake..

    I too added 2nd apple ID when I tried to get Free app from apple store just to get to NONE on the credit card needed. It said it sent confirmation email to my new apple ID email that I have to confirm. Problem is I can not get to the new apple ID email account.  On my ipad it logs into my original email account and I see no where to log into another email account.  If I go to my laptop, the new apple ID I created does not let me log into email where apple said it was sent to.  It did not send to back up email account either.
    Can I log into 2 email accounts on my ipad where it says mail at bottom?
    Can I have 2 apple ids?
    If I created a 2nd apple id to get to NONE on credit card needed, can't I log into it also on another laptop in gmail?
    (won't let me)
    If I used my original apple id I created when I got my new ipad, it will not let me get free app without credit card, there is no where it says NONE needed. I am too new to apple to start with credit cards etc until I get use to it.

  • Iphoto keeps quitting unexpectedly when trying to share photos on Facebook.

    iphoto keeps quitting unexpectedly when trying to share photos on Facebook.This only started a short while ago. I never used to have issues posting pictures before. Moreover, it also tells me there are issues with my library and prompts a "repair" of my iphoto library. This is scary - I have tons of pics and I'm not ready to lose any of them! I did change cameras a month ago, but it is the same make as I had before - a Canon powershot SX150 IS. Could it have anything to do with it? Could it be the fact that I keep so many pictures in iphoto (10,000 +)?

    How to backup? You should be doing regular backups - if you are not you will lose all of yoru files and photos sooner or later
    If you are not ready to lose all of your photos then you need to pruchase an external hard drive and start backing up immdeiately - for simplicity I recoommend a Time Capsule and Time Machine - but any backup is better than none - I do two daily
    For this simply make a temporary copy of your iPhoto library
    Will it fix the FB problem - hopefully

  • I was trying to share some photos and my i photo app is frozen.  i can't access it or get it to work.

    I was trying to share some photos and my i photo app is totally frozen on the desktop  I can no longer access i photo or the photos I was trying to share.  Help!

    How were you sharing the photos?
    Try to backup your iPhoto library and hold down the option and command keys while  launching iPhoto - key the keys down until the first aid window appears - rebuild your database

  • I tried to share a photo using e-mail and when I set up my gmail account I typed in the wrong user name and password.  Now i can't share photos using e-mail.

    I tried to share a photo using e-mail and when i set up my gmail account I typed in the wrong user name and password.
    Now I can't send a photo because i get an error message saying the user name and password do not match.
    How do i save a new gmail user name and password??

    iPhoto Menu ->
    Preferences ->
    Accounts ->
    Delete and recreate your email settings.
    Alternatively, use Apple's Mail for the job. It has Templates too - and more of them.

  • Trying to share an album on facebook but set up permission keeps crashing

    Trying to share an album on facebook. As usual, the pop up asks "Do you want to set up iPhoto to publish to facebook?" - as usual I click "Set Up". As usual, new "window/pop up" opens and asks for facebook password ... I type my password and then it crashes ... can't even click "Log In" ... it just crashes, starts loading the same window again, log-in window crashes again ... It's the first time this happens, I upload albums to facebook all the time!
    Anyone facing similar problem? any hints on how to solve it?
    Thanks

    Solved with the classical shut down - re-start.

  • I am trying to download my photos from my iphone to my mac-iphoto. It keeps trying but about halfway through it says there is an error with a photo therefore it wont download any of my pictures or videos.  It wont tell me which picture is the issue.

    I took a lot of pictures and video on my recent trip to Ireland.  Now I am trying to download the photos and videos from my iphone to my mac - iphoto.  I have tried 3 times and each time (at a different point) I get a message telling me that there was an error with one of my photos and it wont load the pictures.  Help!!

    Try using Image Capture to download to a folder on the Desktop.  If there's a damaged file on the iPhone that's preventing the download you can isolate it with Image Capture and then delete it from the iPhone.

  • I am trying to share calendars with my husband (using Google calendars). He can see my calendars, but I am having trouble seeing his. We both use iPhones.

    I am trying to share calendars with my husband (using Google calendars). He can see my calendars, but I am having trouble seeing his. We both use iPhones. We both have company email addresses. I have had to install and uninstall my gmail info on my iPhone multiple times due to errors sending and receiving emails from my company email address on my phone. For some reason, all of my emails are getting stuck in my outbox when my gmail account is installed on my phone. When I delete it, my emails get sent automatically. This is really annoying! I would do without the gmail account, but I need to share calendars with my husband. How do I fix this?

    If you have two-step verification turned on in your email account, you'll have to log in with a browser and turn it off.

  • In trying to share music with multiple user accounts on one comp, I quit itunes, located my itunes media folder, moved it to a publicly accessible location. Problem is it didn't work and now I can't get it all back to the way it was.

    In trying to share music with multiple users on one computer, I followed the directions on "iTunes:How to share music between different accounts on a single computer" (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1203). I did something wrong because i lost iTunes
    Tried to put files back, but it is not the same. Plugged in my ipod and it is not recognizing my computer.
    Can someone tell me where iTunes should be, and what sub files should be included with it. Thanks!

    If you are seeing the "Connect to iTunes" logo, then your device is in Recovery Mode, and you will need to restore it:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

  • Have a company based itunes account, trying to share itunes on bank owned devices. can't get all devices to keep our shared password on them without requesting user to enter password (which i am not giving them)

    i am an IT manager for a bank.  we have several company owned iphones. WE have also implemented a mobile device management system to manage our iphones. 
    We setup acompany based itunes account, trying to share itunes on bank owned devices.  This way i can add bank approved apps to the devices through our itunes account and push out to the iphones, and no one can download any other non bank approved apps.
    it has been working ok. but recently i had one user who came in.  He went to enter in his itunes account on the phone and didn't work. So then came back and my staff and myself have (as much as we can see) removed his email account itunes login from all sections in settings. and entered in our itunes account information, but when you go to the app store, and hit upgrade, it still shows his email account for itunes.  I feel like i can't get all devices to keep our shared password on them without requesting user to enter password (which i am not giving them)
    How can i troubleshoot his device. i tried changing password 5 times today, rebooted device, and no change.
    Jenn McGlynn

    i have an MDM application, and i push out the apps i want them to have with our IT apple id account. for some reason when two approved apps needed updating last week, they prompted him for our password. (which i told him to bring phone in and i would enter password).
    but somehow he went to try to enter his personal to make it work (don't know why)
    somewhere it's keeping his personal email. i went into itunes/apps and our apple id is in there.
    there is nothing in icloud b/c we do not allow icloud, so that's clear.

  • How do i get rid of "homecomputer" that is trying to share with me?

    I think someone may be trying to share something with my computer, but I have no idea who would do this and do not wish to share. In Finder, on the left, underneath SHARED, there is an icon of an old looking computer that says "homecomputer." Every once in a while the eject symbol shows up next to it, but when I click it nothing happens, and the eject button disappears. Clicking the "homecomputer" once, a file shows up on the right that says "SharedDocs." On the top it says Connected as: Guest. The file contains several other files such as AOL Downloads, some songs, sample pictures, etc. Its possible a neighbor accidentally connected, but I wish to delete this for security reasons. However, I can't delete it. Please help me get rid of this!

    If you have a Network listed under Devices or Shared in the Finder's sidebar, then click on it to open the Network window. If you see an icon for "homecomputer" displayed, then CTRL- or RIGHT-click on it and select Eject from the contextual menu or simply drag it to the Trash.
    If no Network is listed, then select Preferences from the Finder menu, click on the Advanced icon in the toolbar, then check the topmost box, Computer. Now in the Finder's sidebar you should see an entry under Devices labeled Computer or your computer name. Select it, and you should now see a Network icon displayed.
    If this doesn't work, then check your settings in the File Sharing panels in System Preferences. It may be helpful to turn off file sharing, wait for it to stop, then restart it.
    If your wireless network is not protected, then I suggest you configure your router to turn on WPA2 security and assign a password to access your network.

  • Trying to share a printer attached to a PPC Mac Mini

    Hi all.
    I'm reinsterting an old Mac Mini running OS X 10.5.8 as a headless print server. I can interact with it via other computers to share the screen, so my network protocol with the computer is sound. My problem is, I can't seem to print to any printer attached to this computer--this is obviously a problem, as that's the whole reason I've revived this device.
    Sharing setup for all computers is complete and the client computers don't seem to have any trouble seeing the printer. But when I print to it, the job is sent VERY quickly (suspiciously so) from my clients (a Mac Mini Intel in the living room and a MacBook), and the PPC mini shows no indication a print job was ever delivered.
    Any brilliant ideas? I'm sure it's something really basic I'm not remembering or thinking about, and I'm sure someone has already asked this question; feel free to direct me to that solution, as my searching efforts didn't produce anything that I felt was helpful--but I've been wrong before.
    Thanks!

    OK then, please post a brand new question in the OS X 10.5.8 "Leopard" forum:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.5_leopard
    I no longer have a Leopard system to test and I used my one brilliant idea for today.
    A new question should solicit more interest. Hopefully one of the old guard can think of something. Reference this thread so they can read what you did so far: Trying to share a printer attached to a PPC Mac Mini
    Edit: Before you go, can you print to this printer while directly attached to the other computers too? Make sure it's not a simple driver problem. Good luck!
