IPhoto faces and screen savers incorrect way round, but photos correct

Hello,
I recently got a MacBook pro, and am in the process of organising my iPhoto library.
I seem to be having an issue where many of the faces are the incorrect way round in the faces view, but when I go to the file, it is correct.
This also happens with Screen savers.
Could anyone help me?
Thanks,
James Rosen

iPhoto Version 9.5.1 (902.17)
It was moved to the library by being imported from an NTFS external hard drive, which has now been reformatted to Mac OS Extended (Case Sensitive, Journaled), the iPhoto library was originally located on the built in SSD drive, but is now located on an external hard drive, due to capacity limitations.
I am seeing the incorrect face orientations when I view the faces in the faces view of iPhoto, when I go onto a person, some are incorrect orientation.
But when I click on the files, they are correct.

They are also incorrect using photo screen savers.

Loaded iPhoto 9.2, my 7200 photos grew to 113,000 files with screen shots, duplicates, ,5-10copies of faces and apple has no way to eliminate this. How can I ever retrieve the original 7200 from this mess?

This can happen if the HD icon is inadvertently dragged to the iPhoto Window.
Easiest solution: restore from your back up.

You change the background and screen savers in the System Preferences Desktop & Screen Saver preference panes. Just click System Preferences in your dock.
In order to view your pictures in Front Row, you need to import them all to iPhoto.

No puedo abrir desktop and screen savers y otras aplicaciones, tampoco me funciona java, por que?

Fijate que la aplicación de preferencias no esté corriendo en 32-bit (haz click derecho sobre la aplicación de Preferencias del Sistema, opción obtener información y asegurate de que la casilla de 32-bit esté destildada).

I just downloaded the lastest iphoto update and I can't find my all photos

I just downloaded the lastest iphoto update and I can't find my all photos. How do I find these photos? Where did it place them? Please advise.
Thanks!

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, faces and places 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.

I too added 2nd apple ID when I tried to get Free app from apple store just to get to NONE on the credit card needed. It said it sent confirmation email to my new apple ID email that I have to confirm. Problem is I can not get to the new apple ID email account. On my ipad it logs into my original email account and I see no where to log into another email account. If I go to my laptop, the new apple ID I created does not let me log into email where apple said it was sent to. It did not send to back up email account either.
Can I log into 2 email accounts on my ipad where it says mail at bottom?
Can I have 2 apple ids?
If I created a 2nd apple id to get to NONE on credit card needed, can't I log into it also on another laptop in gmail?
(won't let me)
If I used my original apple id I created when I got my new ipad, it will not let me get free app without credit card, there is no where it says NONE needed. I am too new to apple to start with credit cards etc until I get use to it.

Your iPhoto library should be intact - you can find it in your home directory in Pictures>iPhoto Library. Hold down the option key when you open iPhoto and you'll be prompted to select a Library. Select "iPhoto Library" and you should have your photos restored.

IPhoto faces playing the slide show started saying "alert photo can't be opened because couldn't find original

Iphoto faces playing the slide show-Started sayin "alert photo cant be oppened because it couldnt find the original.What does that mean?

do you have a default "managed" library (the iPhoto preference to "copy imported items to the iPhoto library is in its checked state) or a referenced library (that option is unchecked)

IPhoto 11 Faces and Dates are incorrect when synced to iPad/iPod

iPhoto 11, "Faces" and file creation dates appear to work perfectly when viewed within iPhoto 11 on my MacBook Pro. However, a few dozen Faces and creation dates appear incorrectly and out of chronological sequence when viewed on my iPad or iPod. I have rebuilt my iPhoto 11 library several times and re-synced to the iPad/iPod, but the problem persists. Anyone having the same issue or happen to know of a solution? Thanks in advance.

I recently updated iphoto 11 and now I can't view my photos in the iphoto library. Screen is blank, but photos will show if played as slide show. What's going on? ? ?

On Friday, October 28th I updated my iphoto 11 because I received notice from Apple that I should do so for better stability in the program.    Today I opened I photo and found that although all my events show they are present and the number of photos in the library appears correct, when I click on an event to view the contents, I get a black screen.   I am told there are no photos in the event.   When I return to the iphoto page it again shows all my events with pictures of the photos in the event thumbnails and the number of pictures in each event.    I can not actually view these photos individually.      Now here's the strange part, when I select an event thumbnail and right click, I can choose to view the event as a slide show, complete with music and special effects and it will play normally.   But no way can I view the event photos individually.     I have one event that claims to be empty, no photos in it, yet when I click on that event all 346 pictures pop up for individual viewing, but will not play as a slide show.    I am totally confused and want my iphoto put back to normal.
Has anyone else had this problem?
How do I uninstall the update, or failing that how do I get my photos back? ?

Hi Liz,
Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem. Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File", then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine. I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1). I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do.
The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu, when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.
I am now a happy camper.
I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto, that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"?
Good luck Liz, if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

IPhoto Faces and Contacts.app Trouble

Yosemite (clean install) and iPhoto (MAS) installed and are up-to-date.
iPhoto uses my previous iPhoto Library backed up from external drive (before clean install Yosemite I moved iPhoto Library to external drive, after installing Yosemite I moved iPhoto Library to "~/username/pictures/" folder and launched iPhoto with holding Option key and choosing my iPhoto Library as default).
Then, trying to add picture in Contacts.app I double-clicked photo-field and in pop-up window chose Faces section (which is not gray or absent as it was in some users reports after upgrading to Mountain Lion OS X. in my case the Faces section is normal and can be chosen).
Inspite of my iPhoto Library has a lot of recognized faces the Faces section in popup window of Contacts.app does not contain any of them just advising me to use iPhoto or Aperture apps to recognize faces.
Rebooting and reinstalling iPhoto.app did not help.
Any ideas?

Have you updated to the current iPhoto version 9.6?
I had the same problem and repairing the iPhoto library solved it. (iPhoto 9.6, Yosemite 10.10.1)
After that the Contacts.app showed those faces, that had been assigned in iPhoto using the contact card. So, first create the card, use the name from Contacts to label the Faces in iPhoto, and then assign the profile picture in contacts from iPhoto's Faces.
To repair and rebuild open the iPhoto library with the First Aid tools:
Launch into the First Aid Tools by holding down the key combination option-command ⌥⌘ and double clicking the iPhoto Library icon to launch iPhoto on this library.
Keep the two buttons firmly held down, until you are seeing the First Aid panel.
Then select "Repair database".
If that does not fix it, back up your iPhoto library and try the other First Aid options as well.

Iphoto 08 and screen saver

I use my iPhoto library to run randomly as my screen saver. This has worked fine until I updated to iphoto 08 and now some of my photos are blurry on the screen saver. They are fine in iPhoto. Anyone know how to fix this.

It appears that iPhoto 8 now stores a low-ish resolution thumbnail of every (?) image -- I think your screensaver was grabbing those instead of the original-resolution images.
These appear to be scaled-down so that the largest dimension is 360 pixels, which will certainly look godawful as a full-screen screen saver. I'm guessing that these exist so that iPhoto 8's Events view has a known image resolution to quickly access when you drag over to get image previews.
The images are in the "Data" folder, inside the iPhoto library package that gets created when you convert your old iPhoto 7 library folder.
I managed to get what I think should be your old functionality by doing the following (not quite as elegant, but functional...):
• Make a folder somewhere. e.g. "iPhoto slideshow folder"
• Open the iPhoto library package by right-clicking on it and selecting Show Package Contents
• Make aliases of the "Modified" and "Originals" folders
• Put the aliases in your new "iPhoto slideshow folder"
• Then open up System Preferences and point the screen saver to this new folder.
It should resolve the aliases to find your normal images, without seeing the Data folder that has all the low-res images in it.
Ideally, the screen saver would have a setting to reject images below e.g. a certain resolution, but this should be a servicable workaround.
Hope this helps!

Quartz Extreme and Screen Savers not working

I couldn't find an answer to my problem. But I found an answer close to mine said (10.4.4 broke Quartz Extreme). There system profiler says Quartz not supported. I checked mine says the same thing now. The answer was to delete two files from system library (Extension.kextcache and Extension.mkext) I did that and restarted worked fine, turn computer back on today back to the same problem.
I could use some HELP.
This is my problem. I don't remember when this started but it's been months. It's my screen savers I have regular savers and Quartz savers and Quartz saver I made when I got Tiger. Went to change saver one day and all my Quartz savers were missing some savers that were not Quartz and the screen saver called my computer name has a blue file folder. I went thought the savers found some that made System Preference crash though them out still did not help, checked saver folder all there. I restarted computer some times were there, some times not might have to restart few more times to work. When I turn computer on next day some times would be all back some times not. Have had regular screen saver missing but when screen saver kicked in after some time it work but not in list. Checked folder again the saver were missing from folder too this time. I don't want to have to restart my computer each time I want to use those savers. Some time have to keep started over and over again in a roll to get to work don't think thats very good for my computer. I also did repair permission that didn't help. Don't know what to try next. Can anybody help.

Yes, I did try a new account and the screen saver still will not come on. I spent about an hour on the phone with Apple Support and the tech did seem sharp. After trying many things including your suggestion his opinion was that I downloaded something that wrote something into the screen saver Pref's or something to keep it from activating. The only screen saver I had downloaded around that time was a Superman one relating to the new Superman movie. I think I will contact the originator of that screen saver and see what he has to say. Apple support suggested I do a new OS install. Thanks for your reply to my post
