IPhoto and Ofoto express

I would like to use the iPhoto album option in ofoto express to save my picts to the web, but for some reason i can no longer log-in using the ofoto express application. i tried the following:
- uninsalling and reinstalling (removing the prefs as well)
- logging in with only one photo to upload.
- logging in by selecting the "existing albums" radio button
- sigining in with just the "sign in" button and no images to upload.
the spinning wheel comes up and looks like it's doing something, but then of course stops and nothing happens.
anyone else have this issue and resolved it? grrrr
- thanks

I figured out to just use the plug in to upload directly to kodak without having to export out of iphoto then upload with ofoto express.

Iphoto and Kodak Gallery Plug in or Ofoto Express

I have read multiple iphoto threads about using other upload programs and I use Kodak Gallery.
Does anyone know what the difference is between using either the Kodak Gallery Iphoto Plug in or using the Ofoto Express software from Kodak?
Is one preferred over the other?

I figured out to just use the plug in to upload directly to kodak without having to export out of iphoto then upload with ofoto express.

I can't get my iPhoto menu window to open up after installing Ofoto Express

I think I am going crazy but I just installed an application from kodakgallery called ofoto express that enables a user to drag and drop photos from iPhoto on a Mac and upload it to kodakgallery. I want to order holiday cards but now that I've installed it and open iPhoto, my menu window does not show up.
Any clue as to what's going on? Thanks in advance.

In the past, we have used Kodak Easy Share Gallery, so I was looking at Ofoto Express, as well, to smooth the upload. However, I DIDN'T install it, because Ofoto is an OLD name for Kodak Easy Share (actually Kodak, purchased Ofoto years ago). So, looking at the system requirements, it was clear to me that Ofoto Express has not been kept up to date (I think it's stated min requirements were OS9, with no mention of OSX?). I would think it may not work. For that reason, and because I hate uninstalling bad software, I simply chose to skip it.
Kodak now offers this software, instead of the ofoto software: http://www.kodak.com/global/en/service/downloads/dln_ekn026079.jhtml?pq-path=450 9
To sum up: I would recommend uninstalling the ofoto app, if it's not working for you, or visit the Kodak support page, and ask them to verify it works on Tiger with iPhoto08. Or, just install the Kodak software from the link above.
Having said that, in my house, we are running a comparison on our new Mac using iPhoto vs. EasyShare, and I think the iPhoto services options are winning the battle! There are a couple of minor benefits of using EasyShare, but iPhoto is overall easier to use. We are waiting for our orders in the mail from both services, to compare quality of both services. If iPhoto meets or exceeds Kodak Share, we are switching.

Kodak Gallery (Ofoto Express) Issues with iPhoto 8

Since uploading iPhoto 8 I haven't been able to get the application that I use for Kodak Gallery (Ofoto Express) to work at all. Anyone else having these issues? If so, do you know a solution or work around??

Ofoto Express is an old app (2004), and it looks like Kodak is not going to update it (not even to put Kodak's name on the app).
Ofoto Express looks for Albums, so it won't find the new iPhoto "events". Good news is that the last event you load is placed in iPhoto's "Recent" folder, which is a folder that Ofoto Express recognizes. So, in iPhoto, select the event that you want to upload to Kodak before loading Ofoto Express.

Uploading from iPhoto '08 using Ofoto Express

I have always used Ofoto Express (from Kodak Gallery) to upload my photos from iPhoto. Now that I have iPhoto'08 I can't do it. When I open up Ofoto it doesn't give me the choice to get my pictures from iPhoto. Does anyone have any ideas?
When I go to the iPhoto Library in the Picture folder it opens up the iPhoto application. Where are the actual files?
Any help would be appreciated!

In Ofoto Express (v.101) click on the Pictures Button on the toolbar. A Standard OS X 'Open Dialogue descends just like in any application:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
Select the pic you want by clicking on the (-click to select more than one) then click open.

Using a current Time Capsule with Airport Extreme and Airport Express Older generation

I am looking to achieve a fast local network that allows streaming of music and video. I have bought a Time Capsule to replace the Telstra router (Thomson Router) by linking it using ethernet cable and then set up a network that also uses and older airport extreme and express router (g standard).
It would appear that the local network speed is slow - how can I assess the connection speed in the local network - both wireless and for ethernet? I believe that there is a speed indication on my two older macs running OSX 10.5 but not in OSX 10.6. Is there a tool to assess the local network speed?
The current set up works less well than previously only using the Thomson router, so the initial results are very disappointing. Not even streaming music seems to work and it stutters to halt.
I had expected that the dual band functionality would allow fast local connections where needed. What do I need to change?
Thanks you.
Tom

Hi Bob,
The two old airports (extreme and express) are connected wirelessly to the time capsule base station with the following use:
- round extreme base station supports a printer only - remote WDS indicated in set up
- airport express supports remote speakers - set up does not indicate WDS status
I noticed in another note to provide a second network name to 5GHz network and connect the modern computers, ipad (seems to be able to connect) and apple tv to the 5 GHz network, leaving the other on the separate network. Also the two computers, apart from the laptops are connected via ethernet to use the GB ethernet, but I am not sure whether that speed is achieved or whether a firewire connection between the two would be better. use examples are:
1. Wirelessly I am trying to use three speakers - computer, apple tv and express - to have to listen to the same music in three rooms.
2. Over ethernet, I am using the the powermac as a file server to mac mini, but would like to be bale to access photo libraries (both Iphoto and Aperture) ideally over the network. It works well with starting the powermac in target disk mode but seems slow over what should be a very fast ethernet network.
The connection with the service providers router and time capsule is bridged - seems to be the only way of providing internet access - however, it also seems to allow for shared devices to be visible across the two time capsule and the Thomson network.
Obviously, this will need some more experimentation but any input would be appreciated.
Thank you and regards,
Tom

Shared photo streams in iPhoto and Apple TV

Why is this proving so difficult for Apple to get right?
All I want to do is create private albums that I can share with family and have them sync back to my Mac so that all I need to do is organise my photos ONCE (i.e. on iPhone or iPad) and see these albums in iPhoto where they are also backed up locally.
I've created a shared photo stream album, shared it with my wife... she can see it on her phone... great.
I look in my iPhoto and there is no sign whatsoever that I've ever created a shared album. Just the main photo stream mess as usual.
Also, I go to my Apple TV and the same thing, just the same "every photo ever" mess.
I've recently taken to using Vimeo because this provides exactly what I need for home video. Create edited video in iMovie for iPad or Mac, then upload it to Vimeo, and share it only with family. I can then view them back on Mac, Apple TV, iPad etc.

Updated programs... now iPhoto and Limewire aren't working!?

Hi everyone,
I did the Software update today, and it updated a few of my programs. I wasn't really paying attention to which ones it was updating but I think iPhoto was one of them. (I'm using iPhoto 5) Well just a little while ago I tried to upload some new pictures, but when I plugged in my camera, the disk drive came up on my desktop, and iPhoto opened, but it never brought me to the import screen. The reason I'm posting this here is that I also just realized that Limewire won't open anymore either. It bounces for a little and then stops.... never opening. I tried repairing permissions, and it worked for a while, repairing a lot, but it didn't fix this problem.
I had this problem with Limewire a while ago and some other apps and it turned out that it was a problem with Java, but I don't remember any problems with iPhoto (of course I was using iPhoto 4 back then). This could be affecting other apps that I'm just not aware of yet. I use iPhoto pretty much every day and I use Limewire a lot as well.
This is a big problem.
Any suggestions would be great.
THANKS!
-Dean

Hi everyone! GOOD NEWS. iPhoto and Limewire are somewhat working again. Here's what I did and what the result was:
iPhoto - I read on a post in a different thread that iPhoto 5 has problems with videos since the update. I deleted all the videos off of my digital camera and it would update fine. I guess I am just waiting for a new update to come out to fix that, but I may start using Image Capture, as it was recommended in that other thread.
Limewire - I didn't know what else to do... so I decided to go to Limewire.com and download it again. I didn't uninstall the Limewire I had and it turned out there was a newer version of the program, so I got the update and now it works fine.
But... I still have one major problem. Final Cut Express HD doesn't open now either! I didn't realize this sooner because I just finished a huge project in FCE so I was taking a break from it haha, but that program is the whole reason I have a Mac and I need to get it working again! It starts to open, the Final Cut Express HD logo thing comes up, but then I get the "spinning beachball for a while" and the "unexpectedly quit" error. What do I do!? I'm thinking maybe I will repost this in the FCE area later.

I was trying to update iphoto 9.4.3, through the app store. then this message comes up
you have updates available for other accounts
to update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.
i'm the only one on my mac. i only have 1 itunes account so it has nothing to do with any UserID issue. i tried reindexing spotlight. This has been an issue for about a month now. Then i deleted iPhoto app and securely emptied the trash. All my software was in my macbook pro when it was shipped to me Feb. 2011. These are the two software, in question. iMovie is giving me the same message now.

I hope I gave you all the answers you need to help me, Thank you, TD

I recently installed IOS 8.02 and Photoshop Express cannot access my full library of images. What could be the problem? Also, w

Problem with Photoshop Express IOS 8.02 - I recently installed IOS 8.02 on my iPad Air and Photoshop Express cannot access my full library of images. Also, when opening the app, I'm not given the option of selecting "Open from Adobe Revel", "Take a Picture" or "Open from Camera Roll".......I am taken directly to a small selection of images. The only images that show up are the saved photos previously adjusted through Photoshop Express. I also updated my iPhone 5s with IOS 8.02 and Photoshop Express works perfectly on the iPhone with all images in my library visible.
What could be the problem?

Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

i guess you could put the aiport utility app on your iphone, click on the aiport express there, it will show you how many devices are connected to it and the mac addresses of those devices.

Iphoto or photoshop express (iphone 5c, ios 7.04)- who wins?

Howdy appleheads out there! I just got an iphone 5c and wanted to ask acutal users out there which photo editing app they like best, "Iphoto" or "Photoshop Express"? Id especially like to hear from folks who have tried both. Im looking for cool filters, to crop, elimiate red eye and do basic things like that. I really want something that is user friendly as I am new to apple products and am a bit lost at the moment.
Does the Iphone 5c ios 7.04 come pre-loaded with its own photo editing app? If so where is it located?
Would it be worth the space to download both apps?
Any help out there for a newbie would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Download and try both. Then you can decide which works best for you. Delete the one you don't want.

Iphoto and time capsule

My family and I want to access and edit all of our photos that are currently stored on time capsule. She has a laptop, I have a laptop, our family has an imac and iphones. We want to have the changes that we make to the pictures (red-eye correction, contrast, brightness, etc) to be reflected on the time capsule file so that when another one of us goes to print or make a slideshow those changes will take place on another computer because it is all stored on the time capsule. Also, we don't need to store all this info on our computers. Is there anyway to do this with iphoto and time capsule? Apple is usually pretty good about integrating things, but I can't figure out how to do it.
Is there a plug-in that will allow me to do this? Can someone make one?
Google Picasa allows us to do this, which is phenomenal. We are eagerly waiting for Google Picasa for Mac to come out for this feature alone. Thank you for any comments

You could look into multi user image management applications likeMedia Expression. It would let you put the source files on the server and each user have their own catalog of thumbnails linked to the source files. EM lets you rename files, add metadata to the files, etc. But if you're going to stick with iPhoto and want to have everyone have full editing rights in the library you'll have to put the library on an external HD formatted for OS X Extended (Journaled).
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 or later), 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Iphoto on Airport express

If apple can allow the Ipod to show photos on a tv with a simple mini headphone jack, why does it not integrate Iphoto and the airport express software to show photos on a tv with the airport express's mini headphone jack? Then we could show pictures to family wirelessly on a tv from an apple powerbook or ibook.

David - I suspect that at some point in the future Apple will indeed come out with an audio/video version of the Airport Express. However, Apple never pre-announces its plans for future hardware products so we have no idea what they have in mind. Apple also actively discourages speculation on topics of this nature in these discussion forums.

After upgrading to Mavericks I cannot update iPhoto and iMovie. Why?

Just got my first Mac, an iMac. I upgraded to Maverick and once done I find there are updates available for iPhoto and iMovie. First I have tried to register "accept" the two apps. Nothing happens. Then I try to update them and get the answer that these apps was installed with another Apple ID. The thing is that I don't have any other Apple ID and noone else has touched my iMac. I have tried to reinstall Maverick three times now but end up with the same result. Anyone who has any clue or have experienced the same problem?

Open System Preferences > Users & Groups then select the Password tab.
Make sure you see the correct Apple ID.
If not, click Change.
Make sure you are logged into your admin account before updating apps.
Reinstalling Mavericks requires using OS X Recovery but there's no reason to reinstall Mavericks just to update your apps.
