Iphoto Book with only 17 pages

Can I make a book with only 17, instead of 20 pages? I'm trying to delete the existing pages 18-20, but I can't figure out how. Or maybe I am forced to have a 20 page book....
Please advise.

No. The minimum number of pages in an iPhoto 11 book is 20.

I have alot of loose photos at home (old) and I would love to make a bunch of iphoto books and make the pages like whole page collages? How do I get my photos into iphoto in order to do this? Can I make a DVD at the drugstore and add them to iphoto?

You can make the collages easily if you have iWork. Just open a letter sized page in landscape mode and drag the photos onto the page, rotate and postiion as necessary. Then do a Print ➙ PDF ➙ Save PDF to iPhoto to get a 200 dpi jpeg version of the Pages page into iPhoto. From there you can add it to your book and use a blank page with the option to have an image as the backbround.
If you have a 3rd party image editor that supports layers you can create the collage with it.

What upload speed do I need to upload the XL photo books with over 25 pages?

I have just recently gotten a new Internet provider and the max upload speed I can get is 1mbps but I am only getting .4 mbps at the most. When trying to upload an XL photo book with over 26 pages it keeps failing to transfer/upload and the error message says to check the internet connection. I'm wondering what upload speed I need to upload? I need to cancel this internet provider before my free month runs out if 1mbps is not going to be fast enough.

Well I have my first order coming in tomorrow (according to Fedex) and I have my fingers crossed.
So far I haven't been able to find any local printers that will print and bind the books at a reasonable cost - best I've found so far is $200 (or more) per book.
Hardly cost effective for my relatively meager budget.
I've explored Asuka a littoe more, and their quality does appear to be superior at first glance, but it seems I am not able to take advantage of submitting my aperture-generated book directly. According to their templates I have to put everything together manually in Photohop. Great for end-control, but one thing that made me pursue this was the ability to generate a book inside Aperture using versions direct from collection (any changes I made to an original image were automatically incorporated in my book. Had I done it all manually, teh time/effort I'd be putting into the book with be well over 5x greater!
I've also looked at shutterfly.com so far - and they seem promising, and am wiating for my colleagues order to go through before I get too excited.
Either way, I hope to have my first printing this week - I'll keep ya posted!

I have an iPhoto library with only Jpeg's in it. I just installed Aperture 3.5 and imported several RAW photos. Shouldn't I now have an Aperture library?

I have an iPhoto library with only Jpeg's in it. I just installed Aperture 3.5 and imported several RAW photos in Aperture. Shouldn't I now have an Aperture library?

Should I create an Aperture library and import all of my photos from iPhoto to the new Aperture library? Then delete my iPhoto library entirely? Just trying to get my library structure correct from the get-go as I plan to shoot only in RAW.
That is not an easy question. There are still a few glitches with the unified library approach. For example, the new iWork applications will not yet show the Aperture library in the Media Browser, only the current iPhoto library. If you are using iWork with your photolibrary, keep it an iPhoto library.
And it is unclear, what will happen, when Aperture or iPhoto will be upgraded to newer versions. Right now you need the latest iPhoto version to be able to upgrade older iPhoto libraries, if you want to open them in Aperture. So probably you will need to upgrade iPhoto as well, if you keep your library an iPhoto library, when both Aperture and iPhoto will be upgraded to Aperture 4 and iPhoto 12.0 or similar. In the long run it will be safer to convert the library to an Aperture library, if you do not want to keep updating iPhoto, but that can wait.
If you want to convert the iPhoto library to an Aperture library, back up your iPhoto library.
Then create a new Aperture library (with File > Switch to Library > Other/New ) and then import your iPhoto library into Aperture using the command "File > Import > Library" and select your iPhoto library.
You will need plenty of space on the drive with the new library. Merging a library into another one will temporarily a lot of working space and may take a long time - several hours for a large library, without visible progress.

If it is possible a scripting can making contents of a book with the correct page numbers?

I was wondering if it is possible a scripting can making contents of a book with the correct page numbers.
I know indesign has already a function that can making contents in a same file, as long as some paragraph styles were indicated to make the contents.
But if the title on the master page, it doesn’t work.
If it is possible to make it happen on a whole book, in spite of what I choosing title was on the master page?
Can somebody help me?
Thanks!

I work on one book which has 40 topic that follow immediately, each topic has a title, socalled section headed. They were put on the master page. What I want is the section headed and the each topic's starting number to make a contents.
Each time, I work on this kind of book, I have to copy them 40 times to make a contents page, and I have to writing down the each section's starting page number and then type in the contents.
I was wondering if it is a function can help me and let me easily to make a contents.
can somebody help me
thanks!

IPhoto Book with Missing Pictures

I submitted this problem via the Apple support site but have not received an answer. I am hoping someone visiting this forum might have advice.
I ordered a 50-page hardcover 8.5x11 iPhoto Book (theme: Modern Lines) that I created using iPhoto 6.0 on a G5 Mac running OS 10.4.4. This was my first iPhoto book. The book, when assembled, looked perfect in the main book window, and I also saved a pdf of it, which was (and is) perfect as well. When the book arrived, I was very pleased with the quality of the printing, except that seven photos (some but not all of the photos on four separate pages) were not printed in their places in the book (there is just white space there).
I then opened the saved file of the book within iPhoto on my computer. When I went to the pages where the printed book is missing photos, I was surprised to see the following. In the main book window, the photos appear initially, for just an instant, and then disappear. In the main book window I then just see white spaces where the seven photos should be (just as in the printed book). This was not the case when I first created the book and placed the order – all photos were present in these places in the book (as the pdf I made just before placing the order confirms). Also, curiously, on the pages with the missing photos, even now the photos do appear in the small images of these pages in the page browser at the top of the iPhoto window, although as mentioned, the photos do not appear (except initially for an instant) in the main book window.
I have since updated to iPhoto 6.0.1 and OS 10.4.5, and the book appears the same with missing photos in the main window, but appearing correctly in the browser.
As you can imagine, I am very disappointed to have spent $70 for a book with seven of the critical photos missing. I assume that there is some bug in iPhoto causing this problem. Has anyone experienced anything like this before? Any suggestions?

I looked on the forum for iPhoto 5, and found a discussion of a similar problem: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=315857&tstart=45
Essentially, the picture you see in iPhoto is a corrupted file. In my case, I deleted the pictures from the library that weren't showing up correctly, emptied the trash, and reimported the originals. Voila! No more missing images. Things are now showing up correctly.

How can i order more copies of a iPhoto book using only the order number

how can i order more copies of an iPhoto book I made
by using only the order number
as I deleted by mistake a copy of it on my iphoto

I know the horse is out of the barn but this tutorial might be of help for future books: iP12 - Archiving an iPhoto 9 (11) Book for Editing and/or Ordering at a Later Date.
If you're starting over from scratch with a book I suggest you create a new library just for that book. Put the photos you want in the book in an album in your current library and use the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager to copy that album into the book library.
This will keep the book library small for easy saving to CD or DVD or to an EHD. If you delete photos from your full library it won't affect the book library.

Anyway to create an iPhoto book with text & no image on cover?

Would like to create a book with text only on the cover and no image. The only options with text require an image as well and as a result the pdf preview shows the square designated for an image (when no image provided). Any help/suggestions appreciated.

Hi Richard,
In this community, "It cannot be done" means "It cannot be done with Pages '09."
The document in question was, obviously, produced using an application oter than Pages.

Cannot buy IPhoto book with version 7.1.5. Can I save it and buy it from another newer mac? How do I save it?

Spent a lot of time creating an IPhoto book for Xmas gifts. When I went to purchase the books I was then told I was not able to buy any product because my IPhoto version was outdated. I tried to update to latest IPhoto version but was then told I was not able to because my IOS operating system is too old.
I tried to update to Mavericks but I was told my Mac Mini is not able to accept the new operating system.
Looks like I need to just buy a new computer to buy some books huh?
Any other ideas? Thank you.

but was then told I was not able to because my IOS operating system is too old.
1 - IOS is not a Mac system - it is only on mobile devices
2 - teh version of the OS is not a determination of abiliby to purchase print products using iPhoto foe the Mac - teh version of iPhoto is the determining factor
so are you saying that your version of iPhoto is too old? I think so
You can run iPhoto '11 on OS X 10.6.8 - you must purchase an iLife '11 DVD (anazon or eBay are sources) and instal iPhoto '11 - the new version of iphoto will update your library (books may change some so
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 ) - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.

Start an iPhoto Book with the Pictures in a certain manual order

I have 200 pictures in a specific order but can not get the Book to load the pictures in that order so I can more easily create the book.
How can I do this?

From your description you left out the most important step: use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option and add one mintue between photos.
Without that step you won't be able to get them into the book in the order you'd like.
Note: if you're worried about messing up the photos' dates in the library for general use try creating a separate library just for your book. You can move the album of photos into the new library by using iPhoto Library Manager. This will allow you archive the library for ordering additional copies or editing without having to worry about the book being compromised in your main library. This tutorial describes it in more detail: iP08 - Archiving an iPhoto Book for Editing and/or Ordering at a Later Date

Can I transfer an iPhoto Book project to a Pages file

Working on a long manuscript in Pages, including illustrations.
I have completed in iPhoto a Book Project relative to the Pages manuscript.
Is there a way to link the iPhoto project to the Pages file?
Or to transfer (cut and paste) the iPhone file into the Pages file as a separate section?
TIA
Lion, MacMini2011

you can preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF and use it with pages or any other program
There is not a book in iPhoto - just database entries - creating a PDF is the way to have a book

How can I fix a downloaded book with tons of pages with errors?

I have read dozens of books on my iPad and only had sporadic problems. But this latest book I downloaded from Harper has error messages on two thirds of the pages. I have re-downloaded and still encounter the same issue. It happens on both of our iPads. (new iPad and original iPad)
Every time I try to click on "report a problem" from the iTunes receipt, it leads me to a page in itunes store which will not open or is just for music.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

It's actually from penguin books in case that matters.

Level 3 headings in TOC appear as books with level 2 pages underneath

I'm importing a Frame 9 document into RH8. I've mapped my styles in the Conversion Settings, and in FM I set up the TOC styles so that heading3 was indented more than and smaller font than Heading2. But when the TOC is generated in RH, I get something like this:
HEADING 1
   Heading 2a
   heading 3a
   heading 3b
   heading 3c
      Heading 2b
      Heading 2c
I've attached screen shots.

It's all controlled by the css that you're using upon import I think.
Peter - shouldn't this one be in the FrameMaker Integration forum?

Writing in iphoto book

I recently purchased an iPhoto book with only pictures and I got it in the mail today. I want to write in it, physically, to add that personal touch. I was wondering what I should write with? A black pen? I hoped I could write with sharpie but I have a feeling it will bleed through the pages.
If anyone knows/has any tops that would be great:)

I've used these pens to write on glossy surfaces, even glass. The line is fine but worked for me on many surfaces. It is permanent once dried.

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 versions) 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 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: iPhoto 8's new option in the library rebuild pane, "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" may make this tip obsolete. We'll know when users have occasion to use it and see if that's the case.

Can I make an iPhoto book that is only 10 pages long?

I want to make a hardcover iPhoto book, but only have 15 photos to go into the book, so 20 pages is too many pages. Can anyone advise? Does iPhoto let you make a book that is less than 20 pages or do you have to fill that whole 20 pages in order to make the book? Thx

You don't have to fill those extra pages. Pick a blank page layout but not the all gray layout. That requires a photo for the background and you can't order the book unless it's been filled with a photo. Most of the themes have a layout that is essentially blank. Some, however, have the theme's colors which might not look good as a filler page.
If you have such a theme you can select a page with a photo background and use a blank, white image file to make that page a blank, white page or whatever you would like on the page. Create the page, landscape, in a text editor or other applications and use the Print->PDF->Save PDF to iPhoto menu option. This will create a jpg image file of that page and it's layout and import it into iPhoto where you can add it to the book.
