IPhoto cards: "An error occurred while uploading one of your files."

Hey, all.
I've been trying to print some cards via iPhoto (version 6.0.6) but, while some are successful on the first attempt, others just keep generating the following error message no matter how many times I try them: "An error occurred while uploading one of your files."
I'm at a loss. They assemble fine. They connect fine. They transfer fine. Then I just get this irritating message over and over and over...plus my credit card company keeps calling about "unusual activity" (which would be the multiple "pending" charges for the same dollar amount that each of these tries generate).
I've tried searching these forums and, while others seem to have had this problem, I've yet to read an actual solution.
And I've tried contacting Apple but they've been, in a word, useless. Polite, but useless.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

like, say, panning the image
What do you mean by "panning"? The only time I've heard this term is with video, referring to moving the camera from right to left. So, if you can explain how what you mean by this it might help.
While there are reports on this forum about folks having issues uploading, compared to the sheer volume of photo orders Apple process it's quite a small amount, and certainly not enough to suggest a systemic fault.
And I'd already tried removing the pictures and cards from iPhoto, then halving the pictures' size (MB) in Photoshop, then recreating the whole lot from scratch. Still, no effect.
Can you explain how you did this? What interaction have you set between iPhoto and Photoshop?
Other than that: Start with the troubleshooting basics:
1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
4. What color profile are these images? Have they been processed in Adobe Lightroom or other software before iPhoto? What's the source of the images - Camera? Scanner? Other?

An error occurred while uploading one of your files. Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your file

Just for the record:
I had received the error message "An error occurred while uploading one of your files. Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your file" after all data apparently had been uploaded.
After trying everything recommended on the internet, I finally found the culprit: Glimmerblocker, an ad blocker!
(GlimmerBlocker version 1.4.16, Mac OS X 10.7.2 Lion)
Actually, the credit goes to the very patient German Apple support: they had finally asked me: "what software have you installed lately" ... a big applause to the guys there!
Best,
Gabriel.

In our case, it was not third party software, but a problem with our router not accepting pings. If you are using a router be sure to set-up Enable WAN Ping Respond, in the advanced settings. I reviewed my wireless router's logs and found that it was blocking ICMP Type 3 packets from Apple's server. As a result, it would give the message, "An error occurred while uploading one of your files. Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your file." You can find the blocked packets in your log based on the time you clicked the buy button for your iPhoto purchase (in my case about a dozen times). If your packets are blocked, then that is your problem.
I should have suspected it was the connection since the message plainly said, "...check your network connection...". However, I discounted this along with so many others based on the forums, since I could connect to the internet. If there only was a way the message could have gave a little more saying, "Enable your WAN Ping Respond now, or else!"
Good fortune on your road to Macenlightenment!

"an error has occurred while uploading one of your files "

Using iLife '06, I've completed a book in iPhoto. I'm trying to buy it -- it goes through the assembling process and right before it's finished it says:
"an error has occurred while uploading one of your files"
But no other explanation is given. Same thing over and over and it always happens right beofre it finishes.
Any ideas what's causing this?

I can't tell you whats wrong but all i do is reboot iphoto, or worst case, restart the mac. and the next time it goes through like a whiz. I placed orders for 24 separate books this week and i have had everything imaginable go wrong but almost everything worked after restaring iphoto.....corrupt file, cannot authenticate user, cannot get credit card approval, problem with file transfer. Don't bother to use the RETRY button. email support was courteous and within 48 hours for other matters not solved by restarting.

TS1135 Cannot process the Photo Book; it fails always at the very last stage with "error occurred while uploading on of your files. Pls check your network connection and click Retry..." Tried at 12 times and no joy! Can anyone help?

Can anyone help with the Photo Book process? I have tried at least a dozen times and the Photo Book always fails at the very last stage of the process. I ordered Buy Book, it assembles the book and files are transferred until the very last moment... it says " An error occurred while uoloading one of your files. Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your files." It fails every time, any advice? My server is TalkTalk which may explain everything !! ?? Help.

Boot into Safe Mode, Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode, and order from there.
Also make a PDF file of your book according to this Apple Document, iPhoto '11: Preview a book, card, or calendar before you order or print it, before you order to check for errors. Keep that file to compare with the printed copy when it arrives.

Iphoto6-an error occurred while updating one of your files (book order)

when trying to order a book the book is assembled but then i get the above error message. it also says please check your network connections and click retry to resend your file. driving me nuts. network connection is fine.
i have successfully ordered a book before. i have checked file permissions, checked files in book by previewing printing it myself. all files are ample size for printing.
i have recently signed up to .mac and that isn't working either, disk login problem. Related??
has anyone else found out how to resolve the book problem?
Will

Like others I have been unable to submit books or calendars for printing to Apple. I get the same error messages that others have received. I use CitiCard virtual credit cards account numbers. I noticed that the funds remaining available for the virtual number I used to try to order the Apple books and calendars has decreased. I tried so many times that CitiCards froze the virtual numbers. I actually tried two different virtual numbers before I realized that Apple was trying to charge each time the transaction failed. So far there appear to be no actual charges to my credit card, but I will be keeping careful look at my account for the next few days.
I am not going to attempt to order Apple books and calendars until posters indicate that the server problem has been resolved. My wife is very disappointed as these books and calendars were to be Christmas presents. We have ordered several books in the past and never had any problems. We may order the book elsewhere but are not aware of other sources for calendars.

Error occurred while uploading iPhoto book

I have been trying to upload (buy) a photobook through iPhoto. It builds OK and seems to transfer all the data (60MB) then stops and displays an error message:
"An error occurred while uploading one of your files. Please check your network connection and click Retry to resend your file"
Network is fine and I have tried the following suggestions:
Rebuild iPhoto
Throttle restricted upload (this seemed counter intuitive but the data tx seemed correct)
Would appreciate any workable ideas.

Thanks OT. I've done this with no improvement, David H from Apple suggested a similar solution.
I've since copied the iPhoto library to the MacBook Pro and tried to upload from there. I'm now getting a billing error so think I must have made an error when I re-typed. Trying again....

IPhoto: An error occurred while trying to save your photo library.

"An error occurred while trying to save your photo library.
Some recent changes may be lost. Make sure your hard disk has enough space and that iPhoto is able to access the iPhoto Library."
Basically, the same issues as this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1588998&tstart=0
I have tried the BatchMod with no luck. If it matters, this is on an external hard drive and I am the only user on this computer. Looking at the info of the library file, I have read/write/execute permissions and my group has read permissions only. I thought BatchMod would change these permissions but it doesn't seem to work.
Actually, I restarted my computer and it works now. But I am still worried it might happen again. Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If it's working now it could have been a one time hiccup. Do you backup your library on a regular basis? If not you definitely should.
If the library gets damaged/corrupted you won't lose your photos but can lose all of your organizational effort that you put into the library. If the external HD crashes then you will lose all.
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: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry.

"An error occurred while trying to save your photo library..."

Installed iPhoto6.
Started app. It said it would take a few seconds or minutes to upgrade.
About 6 hours later after churning on thumbnails it is now claiming this error over and over with some time that goes by in between:
"An error occurred while trying to save your photo library."
"Some recent changes may be lost. Make sure your hard disk has enough space and that iPhoto is able to access the iPhoto Library folder."
It says I have 22,759 photos in Library. The Library was a subset of my images, named "iPhoto Library 2005" and it was intentionally kept below the 25,000 limit of iPhoto5.
Since Steve claims iPhoto6 can easily handle 250,000 photos, I clicked on the upgrade button with confidence. This now appears to be a mistake. Last night I was working on an iDVD for the local school and the majority of that work has simply vanished. There were 320 photos. I spent hours adding keywords, ranking, adjusting temperature, focus, exposure, etc.
Of the 320, only 16 photos survived. They are 16 in a row from the middle of the roll near the end but not at the end. The roll name was lost. The name is now just "Roll 226" and none of the photos have keywords. I know at least one of the 16 should have the keyword "DUPE" and the ranking 2 STARS since it precedes a double that I ranked 2 during a slideshow, sorted by ranking, and dragged to the DUPE keyword. All 16 should have the ACROCK keyword which I initially assigned to all photos.
Again, 304 of 320 have vanished and the 16 that remain have no keywords or rankings.
I watched the slide show in iPhoto5 three times with different music candidates so I know the keywording and rankings evaporated in iPhoto6. I also clicked ACROCK and option clicked DUPE and POOR so that all of the music program photos except dupes and poor images would vanish. I only deleted one photo so there were not a lot of changes to the library in terms of photos in it. I cannot think of any reason why the 16 chosen survived. Only two were placed in a DVD dropzone and they are scattered amongst the 16 survivors.
Also, the ACROCK and DUPE keywords are also gone while the POOR keyword added in August is in the keyword table just fine.
I exported these 320 photos last night to iDVD and tried almost all of the different themes and I dragged about 10 different photos to the dropzones, hit play, hit motion, etc.
It seems very strange that 16 photos from the middle of the pack would survive.
It seems extra odd that iPhoto5 and iDVD treated these as "established" photos, not photos hanging in the wings somewhere ready to vanish in an upgrade.
I gracefully saved and quit iDVD and iPhoto5 and there were no crashes and nothing strange happened while making the DVD. I was hoping today to try out the new themes and maybe find one that is just right for the kids. Instead, about 300 of 320 photos of the kids went bye-bye along with all the work on the photos!
I'm nervous that many more photos are missing but I will need to do a ton of checking to see what else has been deleted by the upgrade.
The user message that iPhoto6 presents is nearly useless and strange. It offers little if anything to go on in terms of a repair procedure. After saying an error has occurred, it says some recent changes could be lost but doesn't expand at all on what they may be or why.
From my experience, recently added photos, keywords, keyword assignments, rankings and maybe more can all be lost. To compound matters, before the upgrade it says that you cannot go back to the prior (working!) library in iPhoto5. Beware!
It finishes by suggesting two vague steps to take. The first is to make sure your disk has "enough" space. How much is "enough"? It doesn't say something like X GB available, Y GB needed. A user would have no clue about how much space to free up. I have over 17 GB and assumed that would be enough. I sure hope it doesn't require double the space of the existing library. I would hope it has a smarter algorithm than that since 23,000 photos at about 3 MB each maps to about 70 GB. That's a lot of "temporary" space to require to perform an upgrade. Since the upgrade/error message provide no details (unlike package installers which supposedly tell you how much space you need), users like me would have no clue if 70 GB is plenty or not enough.
I found 24 GB secretly used by iPhoto 5 for an iPod Photo Cache and a tech bulletin saying this just grows and grows without control and it can be deleted SO I wouldn't put huge hidden disk usage past iPhoto6.
The last none-to-helpful suggestion is that a user make sure that iPhoto is able to access the iPhoto Library folder. Huh?!??!?
Wouldn't this be a great thing to confirm via software before setting about on 6+ hours of work, especially if there is an error message hard-coded in the software confirming that Apple knows the result may be losing valuable customer photos and hours of work on enhancing, keywording, creating DVDs, etc.?
Of course. This appears negligent. To know that customer file loss will likely result but not checking these things out in advance before taking that risk seems like putting the cart before the horse at customers' expense & pain and certain loss of irreplaceable family photos (for the, say, 80%+ of iPhoto users that "plan" to get a backup routine established?).
I got burned in the iPhoto5 upgrade as well, losing photos, so I was sure to have a backup so it wouldn't happen again. Most I fear won't be so fortunate so be advised of the risk and work with copies of your photos only.
Also, why would iPhoto5 have all the permissions it needs to store, edit, tag and otherwise work with 320 photos added last night? Why would version 5 have plenty of permissions to use the folders and the photos in them. Why would iPhoto 6 suddenly lose those permissions or not have enough? This hardly makes any sense. The only way the permissions were set, the iPhoto libraries got created and the albums got created was by dragging a folder of images onto the albums pane in iPhoto5. So, iPhoto5 set all the permissions, everything is under one user account and there should be no surprise permissions for iPhoto6 to deal with.
It seems unbelievable that iPhoto 6 couldn't do what iPhoto 5 was doing. I never changed permissions and never touched files in the iPhoto 5 structure.
I can only guess that recently added keywords, recently added photos and recently added rankings and keyword taggings linger in some at-risk staging area that a version 6 upgrade doesn't know how to deal with. This seems like a lame way to code this app so I don't consider this a good guess but what else could it be?
Anyone else have a better hunch at a root cause?
Anyone else have an idea of a cure?
Anyone else run into this?
It sure doesn't look like there was a test case for having near 25,000 photos (an iPhoto 5 documented requirement), working with the latest roll and then doing a version 6 upgrade because it failed miserably--user data loss--without any special effort to find defects. In a former life I tested software and released software was much more difficult to break than this.
I would appreciate any other user experiences/solutions related to this problem. I am reluctant to import another 22,000 photos from iPhoto Library 2004 only to find more photos go poof without any rhyme or reason.
Thanks in advance for your help and I hope this alerts others to a potential for valuable photo loss (i.e., back up before you upgrade, verify iPhoto Library permissions--whatever that means--and have scads of disk space available assuming there's any truth to the error message!).

I'll check if I have copies of copies of copies. This could take a while due to the number of files.
I picked up a brand new 300 GB Western Digital hard drive thinking 20GB or so was not enough for temp files for upgrading and/or importing.
I formatted it as a mac os extended, journaled drive, not case sensitive, one full-size partition. I started iPhoto6 with the option key. I had a CF in my other WD 300 GB (with media reader). iPhoto6 asked about the photos on the card. I told it not to download those (again). Because I was holding the option key down, iPhoto6 asked if I wanted to select a different library or create one. I created one on the brand new, 100% empty 300 GB drive. I'm not sure if/where iPhoto6 creates temporary/cache files (like iPhoto iPod Cache folder) as it sets up a new library. I was hoping the empty 300 GB drive would give it ample room to load an existing iPhoto5 library.
When I dragged an old iPhoto5 Library onto the new iPhoto6 Library Album pane. I saw the "Importing..." start and it went on and on and on and... I let it run for HOURS and HOURS. When I checked around midnight, it had crashed. When I started it again, it said it had run across some huge number of stray photos.
I have no idea why iPhoto6 would have trouble importing an iPhoto5 library that was below the 25,000 photo mark for 5. This is especially bizarre since iPhoto6 claims it supports 250,000 photos!
I'll be trying to figure out if these stray photos got imported as dupes, if they lost iPhoto5 keywords, etc. I fear something different but equally bad happened since the number of photos it came up with was like 79,000--again many stray photos that didn't make it into the first import for no known reason. Since libraries in iPhoto5 were around 25,000 or less, I'm not sure what's happening.
Maybe there's a cache or temp file still created on Macintosh HD and not on the empty new 300GB drive and a bug exists for imports when space on Mac HD is "low" (i.e., under 3.5 GB). Maybe it's seeing thumbs as files it should import? Maybe it's seeing Orig and Modified images as worthy of reimporting?
I had told it not to import dupes but who knows if it goes by file name, checksum, byte-for-byte comparison, etc.
I'm not sure if I can even pull up iPhoto5 and 6 at the same time now to scroll through the libraries to see if dupes, thumbs, original/modifies/etc. are showing up to boost the count from under 25K to 79K!
Ideas? At least I know I'm not the only G5 dual user with this problem!

Permissions issue: An error occurred while trying to save your photo librar

I recently upgraded from a Mac mini running OS X 10.4.10 (iPhoto 08) to an iMac Core2Duo (2.4ghz) running Leopard (and also iPhoto 08).
My iPhoto library resided on an external Firewire drive when running on the Mac mini, but now that the iMac has such a large hard disk (750gb), I wanted to move my library there. I copied the library over to the Pictures folder in my user folder on the iMac and started up iPhoto, and everything seemed fine.
When iPhoto is running for any length of time, I get the following error:
*An error occurred while trying to save your photo library.*
*Some recent changes may be lost. Make sure your hard disk has enough space and that iPhoto is able to access the iPhoto Library.*
(I have over 300gb available on the disk and my library folder is approximately 40gb.)
I've repaired the permissions on the library using iPhoto's built-in mechanism (command-option while booting iPhoto) and Disk Utility. Additionally, I've used BatchMod to give my user and group full read/write/delete permissions (as posted elsewhere in the forums), but I still get the error.
Searching the forums yields other users w/ the same issues. What's the scoop? TIA!

Sean:
I just had the very same problem when I was messing with permissions and reset my unknown group to staff. I lost all write permissions in my nome folder. Here's how you can reset it for your pictures folder:
In the Terminal type in "sudo chmod -R -N " (there's a space after the N) and drag the Pictures folder into the Terminal window. Then hit the enter key. It should chug along for a couple of seconds and return a new prompt. Give iPhoto another try after that.
I had to do that for my entire home folder and it fixed the problem.
Do you Twango?

Error Message: "An error occurred while trying to save your photo library."

I am all of the sudden getting this error message while in iPhoto, seems to come up after I try to delete some photos:
"*An error occurred while trying to save your photo library.* Some recent changes may be lost. Make sure your hard disk has enough space and that iPhoto is able to access the iPhoto Library."
I have 83 GB of hard disk space available. Any help?

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Networked Drive: An error occurred while trying to save your photo library

I just upgraded to iLife '08. After opening iPhoto '08 I began editing Events. After some merging and adding titles I got this error:
+"An error occurred while trying to save your photo library"+
My iPhoto Library is on a networked drive connected to another Mac. Both Macs are on the same switch and there appears to be no issues copying and deleting files and folders outside of iPhoto. Even inside iPhoto, this error is inconsistent, it happens on some changes and not others. I've had this setup for about three years with no issues in previous versions of iPhoto.

There's a strong chance that the problem is the format of the server. Event though the Mac can read and write to FAT formatted drives, there are file name length issues that can really mess up a library or other files.
If you really want to have an error free setup use a server that's formatted for Mac OS X (journaled).
Do you Twango?

I've had the 'an error occurred' message several times; in each case I've copied the post, clicked the 'Cancel' button, waited a few seconds than then replied again, pasting in the text, and it's worked. It appears to be juste a server glitch.

this is my first post on OTN forum! anyway...
My attempt to install Essbase-ExcelAddin-11121 Fail. During the execution of Spreadsheet Add-in the process generate this issue:
Error 1316.A network error occurred while attempting to read the file ...AppData\Local\Temp\_is711B\Setup.msi
i've seen also seen that in the directory AppData\Local\Temp\_is711B\ there is no file called Setup.msi but AppData\Local\Temp\_is711B\Setup.INI
i have to modify the installer?how? anybody resolve this problem?
I checked on google but, at this moment, no results.
thanks for all support
Gaetano

Hello Gaetano,
It sounds like you are using Windows 7 and/or Vista.
When running the installation try to right click on the executable and select "Run as Administrator".
