Iphoto does not load into iDVD- too many photos?

Recently upgraded to Leopard 10.5.6 and iLife '09. Ever since, iPhoto will not load into iDVD (iphoto 8.0 and iDVD 7.0.3). When trying to open current and new projects in iDVD, the project opens, and plays, but the photos from iPhoto never load, the loading icon just spins on and on. When I open a new document, the same thing happens. Tried trashing preferences in both programs, reinstalling iLife, and reparing permissions. All software updates are current. Still won't work.
I am starting to wonder if it has to do with the number of photos I have in iPhoto, which is about 4000. The photos loaded with no problem until I upgraded. Could it be that the upgrades in iPhoto just make the files too large, and it's too much to expect that many photos to load? Does anyone know how many photos is too many,— or can you suggest anything I have not tired that might work?

This is from Mac Help. It is a good idea to create another account to use in troubleshooting situations such as this. After you create the new account, open iDVD from that account. Try creating a small project to see if you are having the same problems. Post back with your results.

Iphoto will not load into iDVD after upgrade

When trying to open current and new projects in iDVD, the project opens, and plays, but the photos from iPhoto never load, the loading icon just spins on and on. When I open a new document, the same thing happens. The problem started after I upgraded to Leopard 10.5.6. Also upgraded to iLife '09, so I'm working with iphoto 8.0 and iDVD 7.0.3. I'm assuming it has something to do with the upgrades. I've checked to make sure all software updates are current, and they are. I am able to access iTunes thru iDVD without a problem. The themes appear with no problem. But the iPhoto images never load. iPhoto appears to be working with no problems. I am stuck.

Give these basic remedies a try. Quit iDVD and delete your iDVD preferences. To do this, go to your username> library> preferences> com.apple.idvd.plist. Delete this file. Then reopen iDVD; it will create a new preference file with all of the default settings.
Do a verify and repair of permissions using Disk Utility.
Restart your computer after these procedures.
I hope this helps.

Result set does not fit; it contains too many rows

Dear All,
We are in BI7 and running reports on Excel 2007. Even though number of rows limitation in Excel 2007 is more than 1Million, when I try to execute a report with more than 65k records of output, system is generating output only for 65k rows with message "Result set does not fit; it contains too many rows".
Our Patch levels:
GUI - 7.10
Patch level is 11
Is there any way to generate more than 65000 rows in Bex?
Thanks in advance...
regards,
Raju
Dear Gurus,
Could you please shed some light on this issue?
thanks and regards,
Raju

Vara Prasad,
This has been discussed on the forums - for reasons of backward compatibility I do not think BEx supports more that 65000 rows .... I am still not sure about the same since I have not tried out a query with more that 65K rows on excel 2007 but I think this is not possible...

Iphoto does not load, can anyone help?

My Iphoto does not load and I can not import any videos or pictures.

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 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.

QT Movie with Chapters manually added does not import into iDVD 7

I have read several threads regarding the use of Chapters in iMovie and iDVD version 7. Since I do not own any of the pro applications I decided to create a test QT Movie with manually added chapters as described in the QT Pro Manual. I was able to create the chapters and save the movie. However, when I dropped the movie into iDVD 7 no chapters were created. I checked the iDVD Prefs and the "create chapters" option is turned on. I have read that people have been able to drop movies with chapters using one of the pro applications, but I have also read that iDVD does not always correctly encode the chapters.
Has anyone had success adding QT Movies with manually created Chapters into iDVD7?

For what it's worth, I tried manually adding chapter markers to my movies in QT Pro using those same instructions - didn't work for me (iDVD didn't recognize the chapters).
I found another application called Metadata Hootenanny (free) that easily adds chapter markers. When I did that, iDVD recognized them and automatically added a chapters sub-menu when I imported the movie. This was all in iDVD '06.
I've tried this quickly in iDVD version 7 (imported the same chapter-embedded QT movie as above) and it did the same thing (automatically added chapters sub-menu). Hope this helps.

Bill

Iphoto images not loading into my media browser..

although I have deleted a lot of pics in my iphoto (now have 1,850)
Is it because my website has too many pages and photos already?
Any idea why it won't load?
Thanks!

Thanks for taking an interest - I updated it this morning, and all other software. I am using OS 10.7.5
Cheers,
Soren

IPhoto does not load.

This happened before and I had to delete my iPhoto application and buy one from the app store. Now that its not loading photos again, it won't let me reinstall from the appstore as it says that the app is already installed.
I've tried the deletion of the .plist file and it did nothing for me.
I've also tried to restore a older version of iPhoto from my back-up in the Time Machine and the problem persists...
I' quickly running out of options here.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
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. .

HT4236 iPhoto not recognizing iPhone with too many photos.

I recently took a lot of pictures using my iPhone (about 15,000 cos I was doing a time lapse). Now when iPhoto & Image Capture will not recognize my iPhone when I plug it in; the phone still shows up in iTunes.
I hooked up another iPhone onto my Mac and it syncs fine. I also hooked up both phones onto a Windows PC, the other phone is working fine but I am unable to access the photos in the phone with 15,000 photos.
How can I get my photos off the phone?
Thanks in advance.

IPhoto does not load after using camera

Hi,
I tried to downloan pics from a Sony camera, and since then I can't use iPhoto. It opens but then I get this message 'loading photos' that stays up forever and in the end nothing happens. I don't want to use the camera anymore, I just want to see my old pics.
Any suggestion?
Thanks!
david

Hi, marranod,
Welcome to the discussions!
Let me see if I understand your question. You connected a Sony to download photos. Did you get the photos into your iPhoto?
Some Sonys create a camera/disk icon on the desktop that needs to be ejected (dragged to the trash) BEFORE you disconnect the camera....I have done this, and it seems to be ok, but you may receive the message that you did not remove the device properly and may have damaged it.
Am I correct that you had other photos in iPhoto, and that now you cannot get iPhoto to load any of your photos?
Try this: close iPhoto, go to User->Library->Preferences->com.apple.iPhoto.plist and drag that plist into the trash.
Repair permissions using Disk Utility.
Relaunch iPhoto and see if it opens now.
Post back if these suggestions didn't work.
Also, next time you download from a camera, use Image Capture ( in your applications folder) to get the photos into your computer, and then import them into iPhoto.

Will not load registered with too many computers

my daughters IPOD Mini will not sync with current computer, due to registration with other computers, news to us....How do we get this cleared up without losing any purchased songs?

In iTunes, under the "Store" menu, you can select "Deauthorize this computer". That will remove that computer from your iTunes account and free up a spot for the new computer.
If you have already sold or wiped your previous computers, you can log into your iTunes account from the Store menu in iTunes by selecting "View My Account xxxx@xxxx". Once you are logged in, about 1/4 the way down the page it will tell you that you have "xx computers are authorized......". Beside that you have the option to deauthorize all of the connected devices. That is the only option, you will have to deauthorize all and then set up the ones you want to use.
I think 10 is the maximum number of devices that can sync to one iTunes account.

SmoothCam does not load into clip

Although previously posted, it was never answered.
I have viewed the FCP6 tutorial on how to add the SmoothCam FX plug-in into a clip. And although I followed the instructions diligently, nothing happens: no processing window, no effects plug-in in the browser, nada. Help, please.

Freddy Silva,
Reading your post about SmoothCam prompted me to find it and use it to smooth some scenes taken on a journey the old train in Majorca.
This is the first first time I have used it.
I went to "help" in FCP, typed SmoothCam and it appeared.
A red rectaganol appeared around the clip in the CANVAS window with a yellow bar reading "analysing majorca April 08 estimated time eleven minutes".
So I let it run and the result was a much smoother clip.
Hope it helps you.
I do not know if this is the correct way, it worked for me.
I must state I am very much a novice and would defer to any instruction by the two very experienced users who have answered you before my post.
Let me know if it works for you.
Michael.

IPhoto does not retain the names I give photos - please help

When I rename a photo in iPhoto, it will retain the new name and adjust all children copies (e.g. in albums and on facebook sharing page), but when I close the iPhoto program, the new names are erased. I have used the same proceedure before and not had a problem. Any suggestions?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
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.

JDEV 10.1.3 XML Editor does not load XML file

I am trying to edit a large (300MB+) xml file with JDEV 10.1.3 running on a Windows XP Pro workstation with a 2.8 ghz processor and 1GB of memory. The XML file has application data in it. The file loads just fine into the Oracle database using the XML Developer's toolkit so I don't thing there is anything wrong with the XML.
I'm finding that the XML editor does not load the file. Many minutes elapse, then JDEV appears to simply give up - JDEV is no longer busy. There's no XML data to edit - that window is empty. There are no error messages displayed.
I'm new to JDEV so I need to know if there is an error log file I should examine.
BTW, other XML editors (XML Spy, Stylus Studio, etc) simply run out of memory and lock up the machine - it appears they are tryign to convert the XML file contents into 32-bit unicode in memory, build a list of pointers to impose a DOM-like structure, and then load their editor.

Do you really want to manually edit the 300MB file? how much scrolling will you need to do to get to the last row?
In any case it is likely that JDeveloper also runs out of memory - you can try running the [jdev-root]\jdev\bin\jdev.exe file and see if you get any error message in the log window.
