IPhoto: Always recovering

Up to 90 folders created and still getting message: "2 photos have been found in the iPhoto library that were not imported".  How can I stop this when iPhoto is launched?

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.

  • When connecting iphone to computer iphoto always loads

    When connecting iphone to my computer iphotos always loads on top. how do I stop iphotos from loading

    When there are photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll, your iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer. Although photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll are included with your iPhone's backup, which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process, photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. Not a good idea to depend on your iPhone's backup alone for these photos, and deleting the photos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete will improve your iPhone's backup time. If you want any of the imported photos available on your iPhone for viewing, you can add the photos to an existing iPhoto album already selected to be transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync, or create a new iPhone album for the recently imported photos, select the new iPhoto album under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences followed by a sync.

  • Why does iPhoto always open/appear at launch?

    Why does iPhoto always open/appear at launch? Someone used my computer under another account, and now my preferences seem to be changed. How do I fix it so iPhoto must me opened manually?

    Some possibilities: 
    Right click on the iPhoto icon in the Dock. Is Open at Log In Selected?
    Check your System Preferences -> Accounts -> Log In Items
    Is there a camera or anything that your Mac might think is a camera (flash drive, USB Hard Disk formatted to a FAT format, phone) attached to your Mac. If so, disconnect it. If you don't want to disconnect it, set iPhoto to "Do Nothing" when a camera is attached. You do this in the iPhoto Preferences.

  • Can not update iphoto always got error messege

    I tried many times to update iphoto the update file size is 1.2 GB but no way . always the down load reach near to 400 MB and got error messege. can anybody help me to resolve this issue.
    Thx

    The downloaded file is incomplete? Never larger han 400 MB? According to http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1650 it should be 730.91 MB.
    Is your network stable? Do you have any anti virus filters or firewalls active?
    Do you have enough free disk space?
    I'll ask the hosts to relocate your question to the AppStore forum. There are more experts for this kind of problem.
    I see you solved it. Great!

  • I do not have iphoto after recovering from a crash, I have had to reformat a drive and load 10.6 snow leopard to use my computer, but no iphoto to load and view pictures?

    I cannot view pictures or load them with my Canon, I have no iphoto to do so, how do I recover it, is it just one of the repurchase deals with Apple and if everything goes to **** again, I just buy it another time, so on and on? I rather drive nails into my macbook pro, I got this thinking I was avoiding windows nightmares, but I guess eventually they show up everywhere?
    I doubt you can own a macbook pro without iphoto, but one of you apple geeks will prove me wrong!

    Looke for the install disk like #4 in this screenshot:

  • Odd problem with iPhoto always seeing my iPhone as connected when not

    I have started having a problem with iPhoto8. When it starts it always goes to the import photos screen and has a couple dozen icons (with no image) and filenames to import from my iPhone. The problem is my iPhone is not connected. It shows up as mounted on the left side of iPhoto. I can right click and unmount it and it goes away, but next time I restart iPhoto it is there again. If I try and click Import all it goes through the motions and asks to delete the originals, I select yes. Then it displays an error dialog with all the filenames listed saying they are corrupt or blank (which I would expect because my phone is not connected).
    Does anyone know why it thinks my phone is connected when it is not or what to do?
    - James

    Do you have wifi sync enabled for those devices?
    Select the device, click the Summary tab.
    If it is enabled, there's no need to eject the device, even with the cable plugged in.

  • How to stop iphoto from recovering photos that don't exist?

    I just bought my iMac and transferred all my photos from my backup drive to the iphoto library. In organizing my photos I must have deleted photos or had some corrupted photos in the transfer. Now, every time I open iphoto is says it has recovered 75 or so photos, creates a folder for them, but it's empty. How do I stop it from trying to recovery photos that don't exist? I've searched and have found nothing. The folder generated by iphoto as a recovered folder is empty...

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Can you give me an idea of why this type of error occurred
    Because of a minor glitch when iPhoto failed to clean up after an import.
    why has this now corrected the error?
    iPhoto should remove that Importing Folder at the end of the importing session. When you launched iPhoto again it saw the folder and (incorrectly) assumed there was an import in progress. Removing the folder means that iPhoto won't make that assumption.
    There is no reason to assume that the problem wil recur.

  • IPhoto Crashing - Recovering Albums and Titles?

    I installed iPhoto 6 with about a half dozen problem photos. These photos were set in an album for me to review. After exiting from iPhoto and reopening the next day I had continued crashing. After about 1/2 hour with Apple Care I was able to reinstall my library of photos - minus all titles and albums. My photos are also out of order (no longer chronological). Does anyone have a solution on how to re-import my photos with album and title detail?

    Give this a try:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.
    If this doesn't restore the book I doubt if there's anything the Genius bar can do to recover it thru the database files.  You may not even be able to delete the corrupted book as just clicking on it to delete may crash iPhoto.  If that happens you can either try creating a new book in the library or the following:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.>Click on the Add Library button,
    2 -  select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
    3 - make sure that in the rebuild window the checkbox  "Scavange orphaned photos" is checked.
    4 - now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    5 - in the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed. Click on the Create button.
    Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
    Note 2:  Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
    The above will take less time than taking your MacBook Pro into the Apple store. But that's just my take of the Genius bar when it comes to iPhoto libraries.
    Also you should strongly consider implementing a backup strategy ASAP.  If you don't you can count on losing file sometime in the future either from a software crash or a hardware failure, i.e. drive crash.  The easiest backup strategy to implement is to get  an external hard drive  and use Time Machine to backup your entire boot drive. Time Machine comes with every Mac and is located in the Applications folder.

  • Deleted iphoto library - recovered library not photos help

    I was trying to clean up the photos in my Picture folder and accidentally deleted the library folder. I have recovered the folder but not the pictures. How do I get the pictures back? I opened iphoto and was asked about a library so I checked the library with the photos and it did not import or reinstall them. I do have two libraries (library and library_1).
    Any ideas?

    kll3701
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Which library do you want to use?
    hold down the option (or alt) key and use the Locate command to point iPhoto at the required library.
    If that doesn't get your pictures back, what do you see in the iPhoto Window - utterly empty? blank squares where your pics should be?
    Regards

  • Why is iphoto always crashing

    Normally all Apple software is nearly perfect, but Iphoto is always slow, crashing, in fact almost unworkable.
    Why is Apple not fixing these problems?
    Several versions suffer the same problem. Iphoto is the only application which is a problem on my macpro, all other applications are running smoothly.

    I'm having the same issue. Here's my crash log- hoping someone can help!
    Thanks

  • IPhoto updating/recovering Issues

    Hello,
    Quite a while ago, I accidentally deleted my iphoto application. I attempted to recover the application by installing the applications disk that came with my macbook, a late 2010 macbook pro. I successfully installed the applications, iWeb, iDvD, except iPhoto, the application cannot be opened and is "not supported by my version of OS X".
    I was an owner of iPhoto (whatever version it was) it came with the purchase of my macbook, and am in need of assistance of recovering an updated version of iPhoto.

    You will need to purchase the new iPhoto in the Mac App Store (MAS) It's $14.99. Older versions of iPhoto won't run under Mavericks.

  • Why does IPhoto always crop pictures when printing?

    Whenever I print from iphoto the picture alway gets cropped automatically. Why does it do this and how can I stop it? This results in heads and feet often being cropped out of the printed photo which is frustrating. When I double click on a photo to view it full screen I can see the full photo however the actual print, regardless of print size chosen, ends up being cropped. I use an HP C7280 printer.

    Photos from a digital camera are in a size ratio of 4:3 which is not one of the standard print sizes. Therefore the photo must be cropped in order to fit the select print size. You should crop the photo yourself in iPhoto before printing so you get exactly what you want with no surprises.
    What iPhoto does is take the smaller dimension and scale it to fit that dimension in the print.  The larger dimension will obviously be larger than the print so it will be cropped to fit, usually on both ends.
    Bottom line: do the cropping yourself to get what you want.
