IPhoto 9 does not show any photo of old Mac Mini's iPhoto 7 library

I'm trying to migrate an 80GB iPhoto library from my old Mac Mini to a new iMac. The old Mac Mini has iPhoto version 7. The new iMac iPhoto 9.
When I copied the complete library, iPhoto does not show any photos. How can I fix this? I already tried:
Using iPhoto Library Upgrader – however it shows: Your library can open with the current version of iPhoto and does not need to be prepared with this tool.
Using iPhoto's rebuilding etc functions on both Macs – this does not do the trick
Using iPhoto Library Manager – also shows 0 photo and rebuilding does not work.
Anybody knows a solution?
Thanks!

Doesn't work :
It is also quite strange that iPhoto just opens the library without any warnings, but without showing any of the content (photos, albums, etc.)

IPhoto does not delete any photo's

Dear all,
I am setting up everything on my girlfriends new MacBook Air and everything is working so far. But now I have set up iPhoto for her and imported her photo's but she is not able to delete any photo's. I also tried to do it by accessing her library but that did not work either. When I delete the master and/or thumbnail file from her library it still appears in the iPhoto program itself. But then she can't open it anymore and still is not able to delete it. The delete option does appear when you do right click but it does not do anything when you click on it.
I have tried to restore here library but that did not work and I also tried to delete the whole iPhoto library and create a new one. After that the same problem still occurred.
She is running OS X Mountain Lion and her MacBook Air is bought last month (so it is the newest model). She has all the updates installed so that should not be the problem either.
Hope someone can help me here.

PS: sorry for my bad English; it is not my native language.

Can you clarify:
I also tried to do it by accessing her library but that did not work either
What do you mean by her "Library"? Do you mean what you see in the iPhoto Window ? Or do you mean the iPhoto Library in the Finder?
When I delete the master and/or thumbnail file from her library it still appears in the iPhoto program itself.
Again, is this is the iPhoto Library Package in the Pictures Folder? If so:
Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things, deleting them or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
You've just trashed her Library if you have.
To delete from iPhoto:
1. You need to be in Events of Photos View... Drag an Image to the iPhoto Trash. Empty it. Then Empty the System Trash.

IPhoto does not show any of my edited pictures

I recently upgraded from SL to Lion. After that, all I wanted to restore was iphoto, so I restored the iphoto folder. After that all my events but five was black and showed no pictures, all thumbs was corrupt etc. So I started iPhoto while holding two keys down, like I read I should, and then I restored everything but one option. I left it for the night as it seemed to take for ever. Today everything looked fine, great! Or.. no all photos I ever edited looks as they originaly did. All modifications are gone, atleast thats what I thought but then I looked in the iphoto folder and the modified folder is still there and full of photos. If I click edit on a previously edited picture I see the modified version ... when I return to event or album view, it shows orignal again. Help please!

Where did you restore the library from? Time Machine? If so resore it again (you can keep both) and when the library has been restored download and run BatChmod on the library with the settings in the screenshot below:
Click to view full size
Launch iPhoto and check your edited photos. If that doesn't help try rebuilding the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager 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 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.

Please help this has not been working for about a months and I am going nuts now!!

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

IPhoto does not see any changes after editing a photo in Camera Raw

Hello everyone ,
I have some small problem with my iPhoto. I have set up Camer Raw in iPhoto as External Editor, so when I click on edit in IPhoto,
automatically opens my JPG in Camera Raw. After editing in Camera Raw I'm clicking on ,,Save image" then destination is ,,Save in same location" When I go back to iPhoto to the same photo, iPhoto does not show any changes I have made in Camera Raw.
What could it be or should I set something in iPhoto or in Camera Raw?
Is there a chance in order to deal with this?
I will be grateful for any assistance and
I'm waiting for advice
Dawid

Any time a RAW file is edited in any 3rd party editor from within iPhoto it MUST be saved to the Desktop and imported as a new file. There's no other way to do it. So the photos you've edited and saved are somewhere in the iPhoto Library folder system but cannot be recognized and used by iPhoto.
The following is geared for Photoshop and Photoshop Elements but might have some info relevant for you:
Using Photoshop CS3 or Photoshop Elements 9 as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's Advanced Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
Click to view full size
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
Click to view full size
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
Click to view full size
s I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Click to view full size
NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS/PSE without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in iPhoto". That will let you either edit in iPhoto using the Edit button or Control-clicking on the thumbnail and selecting "Edit in iPhoto" or in PS/PSE by Control-clicking on the thumbnail and selecting "Edit in External Editor" in the Contextual menu.

This way you get the best of both worlds.

Preview does not show any postscript files

Preview does not show any .ps files in Mac OS 10.4.3. I get an error message "PostScript Conversion Error" when Preview tries to convert the ps file into pdf.
(I print online banking invoices to postscript using the print option "save as file", because the pdf option isn't always available as a file format.)
How can I view my ps files?
(this is a cross-post from the print/fax forum, as no one answered my question there)

Thanks for the tip. I downloaded Ghostscript, installed it but can't find it once installed and nothing has changed.
I did however find out that only my online banking PostScript files are unreadable. Other PS files I create with my Canon printer menu are automatically converted into PDF by Preview without a problem. So it must have something to do with the document header or whatever of the online banking files.

HT2638 my iphoto albums do not show any photos in them

How do I restore my photos in iphoto. The albums are listed but do not show any photos in them

Same problem - need the same answers
what recently changed? what version of iPhoto do you have?
Plus in your case the veresion of the OS - you do not give that - the OP does
Using all of the information you gave the most likely reason is that you deleted 90% of your photos and they are gone

PS - using cute emoticons, strange formatting, bold, underlining, etc does not replace actually providing requested information

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

Do you get this window when you hold down the Command+Option keys and launch iPhoto?
If not then you're not holding down both keys long enough.

IPhoto does not show photos in my iPhone

Hi!
As the title has said, my iPhoto does not show photos from my iPhone, but it DOES recognize that iPhone is connected.
But before all of this happened, I changed my setting (which I forgot how to reset that) to NOT open iPhoto automatically when my phone is connected.
And also, a week ago, my iPhone usb cable seems to be spoiled at one end. It can still connect the phone to the laptop, but very loosely - as if some wires inside are broken.
So I really do not know if the problem I mentioned is caused by my setting OR is it because of my spoiled cable (that it could not transfer the photos from the phone)
And if it is believed that it is caused by my setting, could you please guide me on how to re-set the whole thing?
Thank you very much.
Ps. I can still sync my songs in itunes to my music in iPhone.

"But before all of this happened, I changed my setting (which I forgot how to reset that) to NOT open iPhoto automatically when my phone is connected."
Launch iPhtoto.
In the menu, iPhoto>Preferences>General.
Change it back.

IPhoto does not show photo's downloaded

In iPhoto, my photo's I have downloaded from facebook or other sights appear as grey squares and does not show the photo's. However when I run the cursor over them, each photo appears for a brief second then back to a grey square. How can I view these?

This has nothing to do with Pages.

My photostream in windows 7 PC does not shows any pic. when i click on slide show it start showing me slide shows of pic but when i try to copy files i cant do as no photo is viewd in list mode. This problem has arised since IOS is updated.I reinstalled my icloud and checked if icloud sharing is ON. I can see pic in my photo stream in PC only in slide show mode. While in list mode it shows pics before i actually click on photostream folder. My phone memory is out becose of bunch of photoes. How do i copy my photostream photoes.

Hi all. I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues. Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem. …without even a re-boot.
Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive. Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab. Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
Open the Users folder.
Open your user folder
Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
Open the Installer Cache folder
In Details view sort on Name
Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco. The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”. Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear. Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
Good luck…
