IPhoto exports some Originals but hangs, saying "Unable to create /Users/

I have a folder of 43 photos, some jpgs but a lot of the Originals are RAW and a couple of large tiffs, too. I'm trying to send them to a graphic designer for use in a book, so I want the highest quality. I would like to export them as Originals, so I don't have to search for each photo individually. The Export Originals process works for three jpgs, then I get Unable to create Users/amyzerner/Desktop/ then the first four letters of the name of the folder to which I'm exporting the photos, which I want to burn to a DVD. If I export them as Jpgs or Tiffs, all works well. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is here? Thanks in advance.

How much free space do you have on the boot drive?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries and Leopard. 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.

  • Trouble exporting photos: why does it say "unable to create?

    I'm trying to export 100 jpegs to a folder on my desktop. After six or 7 have been exported, it stops, and I get the message 'unable to create'. No explanation follows.
    What is happening? Does it have anything to do with the fact that some of my photos have been edited in Photoshop Elements? All have been saved as jpegs.

    Not if you did it correctly using PSE as the external editor and saving (not save as) so iPhoto is updated properly
    All have been saved as jpegs.
    Does the photo where it stops have the same name as a previous file?
    Try right clicking on the photo and selecting show file (or show original file if that is available)

  • HT4972 Hello there, i have an i Phone 3GS which was locked on the network Orange from U.K i finished the contract last year, but some how i cant unlock it to be able to use on a different network. tried to restore it on itunes but it says unable to proces

    Hello there, i have an i Phone 3GS which was locked on the network Orange from U.K i finished the contract last year, but some how i cant unlock it to be able to use on a different network. tried to restore it on itunes but it says unable to process at this time.

    under UK legislation, if your are out of contract (and not owing the carrier any debts!) they are LEGALLY obliged to unlock you, and within a certain number of (few) days.. search OFCOM for the regulations.
    That said, they are also entittled to charge you for this (usually about £20!)
    I believe, that this can also be done via an APPLE STORE, but the first option is always the Origional Network carrier.
    Orange has a terrible repuation now for customer service (which is just one reason they changed their name to EE!, and yes, this is fact which is why they came Bottom in several recent customer satisfaction surveys.. so they are not going to rush to help you leave them are they..)

  • I am trying to export my iPhotos to an external HDD. As soon as it gets to 200 photos, I get an error message that says unable to create volumes/freecom/my pictures. Can i remove this limit or increase it? I have nearly 17,000 pictures to export.

    I am trying to export my iPhotos to an external HDD. As soon as it gets to 200 photos, I get an error message that says unable to create volumes/freecom/my pictures. Can i remove this limit or increase it? I have nearly 17,000 pictures to export.

    1. What format is the external drive? It sounds like it's ina format that Macs can't write to. Is it a NAS or NTFS?
    2. Easiest thing: just move your iPhoto Library to the external
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • IPhoto 6 trouble EXPORTING VERTICAL photos; Unable to create/Users/...

    I've been trying everything I can think of to export all of my photos to Finder folders and then to albums on a website - either by selecting and dragging to the folder OR by exporting. The horizontal photos export easily, but the VERTICAL photos will not move out of iPhoto. The message that pops up is: "Exporting - Unable to create/Users/my name/place tp which I'd like to export." Nor will the VERTICAL photos enlarge/display when I double click on them in iPhoto - the window that comes up has a gray square with an exclamation mark in it. Since my problem only ocurrs with VERTICAL photos, it seems to be different than the recently posted question about the same message. I did verify my HD disk. My computer savvy is limited, so detailed help is needed! Thanks!

    Check them all and leave them checked. The "!" problem can also occur if iPhoto is interrupted while writing to its database file, Library6.iPhoto. See the tip at the end of my signature. It can help you recover from the "!" problem and get your library back to where it was at the time of the last backup.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current.

  • When copying pic from iPhoto 09 to a file, to burn a CD, after 35 photos it stops copying and I get "Unable to create/users/dividrublesr/ documents/I don't know what is going on.

    When copying pic from iPhoto 09 to a file, to burn a CD, after 35 photos it stops copying and I get "Unable to create/users/dividrublesr/ documents/I don't know what is going on. Forgive me for any mistakes, I am a first timer.

    Given that the file is selected then the next possibility is that you're exporting two files with the same name. When you do this the export breaks down as the second file would overwrite the first. Check the filenames.

    Hello,
    Add me to the list.
    Tonight, the finder crashed during an iDisk operation.
    I had to manually turned off the mac.
    On the restart, Snow leopard decided to index spotlight for like an hour!
    I suspected things so I went into the console, and yes I get all these "MDS Error: unable to create user DBs in /var/folders/..." for nearly each app I launch.
    Any ideas?? I've been reading your thread, and couldn't find any relevant in google too.
    It doesn't seem to affect the use of the mac, but it's still strange! (there's a part of me that wanna clean reinstall right now! I just hate now that i know that something might not be working like it should! haha)
    Any idea an help very welcome.

  • Unable to created users through UME on portal with AS ABAP as its data sorc

    Hi,
    Unable to created users through UME on portal with AS ABAP as its data source.
    I have assigned SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION to the user SAPJSF but this only helps in editing the already existing users but not in creating new users on portal.
    I have checked that that the role SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION is properly generated and has *  in all authorizations. I have even assigned SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW to SAPJSF and another ID.
    DO we need to make any config changes to make the database writable from portal. Please advise.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    If your system is a AS ABAP + +JAVA System,, you have to do the following
    1. Login to Client 001 using SAP GUI
    2. Create a user id
    3. Login to portal and you will be able to see the user.
    4.Assign him the portal rights
    If you want the portal to use seperate Database for USers, there is a setting in Visual admin, that you can change for the same, but i dont remember that

    Thanks in advance,
    lakshmiWhat you need to do is to check directory logs in order to see what is the specific object class violation. If your AM instance was working before, something nasty should have happened in directory. Check logs and schema files.
