IPhoto gives import error "file not valid" when import more than one photo

Trying to import lots of photos.
Every time I try to import more than a few, I get an error that "The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type of the files may not contain valid data)."
When I go back to importing just one at a time, it works fine every time.
I have tried rebuilding the iPhoto library as well.
I have tried also not copying into the iPhoto library and copying into the iPhoto library (using Preferences/Advanced/Importing).
Any help would be great.
This is painful doing one-by-one, and each one I bring in shows as a separate event...
Every once in a while I will get lucky and it will import more than 5, though I will still get the error before it imports all selected. Ugh!

Unfortunately did not work.
And now a silly question - how do I get to be able to see my original iPhoto library? When I try to open it, I don't see any of the albums and mobileme galleries I had created anymore (though I can still see them on the web)

    Just installed 3.7 on Mavericks and when I observe more than one computer at a time I get beeping like I am sitting on the keyboard. Also I can't control some computers in my list and others I can. All the clients are upgraded to 3.7. Any Ideas?

  • Can't Edit Creator field in LightRoom 2.1 when selecting more than one photo

    Hi,
    I've imported hundreds of photos from different photographers for a book project I'm working on, and want to batch-change the CREATOR field to ensure each photo is properly marked as such.
    For instance: I've got a folder of 50 different photos, all by Joe Smith. I'll highlight all of the photos by hitting Command-A, then write Joe Smith into the Creator field and then press Return. Only one photo gets updated with the Creator name, the rest are unchanged. I specifically remember being able to do this in LightRoom 1.
    Help! What am I doing wrong? Is this a bug? Adobe can you please fix this? Thanks for any help!
    (Using LightRoom 2.1 for Mac.)

    I can't duplicate this, Richard. That is to say, it does apply the creator info for all selected pictures in grid view. LR2.1 on XP

  • Why does FCP error "File Not Found" when I try to open my sequences????

    I recently updated all of my software and the following day I started getting errors "file not found" when I would try to open a sequence. Now all of my sequences are being lost and I am losing time and money because I can't meet deadlines! This *****!!! With one sequence I had to reedit the entire thing from scratch and when I did for some reason the old one would then open. But the next time I opened FCP both sequences would error out. Following the "file not found" the computer responds with another error "error: out of memory" What the devil is going on with this crap?

    I seem to have figured out what my problem was. After trying to build the same project (that failed on the Mac Pro) on my laptop and encountering the same errors, I realized that the problem had to be with one or more of my assets and not my new version of FCP, since my PowerBook is running FCP 5.0.4 and my Mac Pro is running FCP 5.1.2.
    In my case the "corrupt" file was a Photoshop PSD file. In the past (FCP 4.5) I was able to use PSD files with hidden layers. I would merge the visible layers into one layer, keep the hidden layers and save the file. Once in FCP, I imported the PSD file and kept right on truckin'. I've done this for years. For some reason now with FCP 5.1.2 (and 5.0.4), that's not flying anymore. Once I "Flattened" the PSD file in Photoshop (deleting all of the hidden layers) I was able to build the project without any errors.
    Interestingly, the technique I used to figure out which file was "corrupt" also allowed me to salvage parts of some of my "lost" sequences. I saw this posted in a forum at Creative Cow (creativecow.net). Basically, I opened up the project, clicked the OK button after the File Not Found error, went into the Browser, right clicked on the offending sequence, selected "Make Offline". When I double clicked the sequence it opened in the timeline with all of my assets offline. Then in the timeline, one by one, I right clicked on each clip and selected "Reconnect Media". Once I linked up the media, if I didn't get an error message, I would save as a new project (to salvage what WAS working), and go to the next clip. I did this until I found the offending PSD files.
    I hope this helps. Now it's time to play "catch-up"

  • Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File - Export - Album name with number).

    Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File -> Export -> Album name with number).
    Exporting a single Event retains the Event name which is what I'd expect. But highlighting more than one event and exporting it renames the images to Events 001.JPG, Event 002.JPG etc.
    I was recently on holidays and had all my events nicely split on Dad's computer but when I went to export it I couldn't retain any of this information. Now I have to replicate this all again on my computer.
    It wasn't possible to export the entire library as the external drive was fat32 format an I didn't want all of it. It would be nice to export a bunch of events to someone and have it retain the name.
    Does anyone have a work around or will this be fixed at some point by Apple?

  • Error using pretrigger when capturing more than one channel

    I am having problems acquiring data with pretrigger samples when capturing more than one channel, using NI-PXI-6071E hardware and Labview's Analog Input VIs (Legacy NI-DAQ).
    My goal is to trigger on one signal, while capturing another. Unfortunately, I cannot use the PFI0 for external triggering, as our cables/hardware have already been built, so I must use an analog input channel as the trigger. I understand that to do so I must capture both channels, and the channel that I wish to trigger off of must be the first channel in the list.
    If I trigger and capture on the same channel (tried 1-4) then it
    works great, regardless of the number of pre-trigger samples set. If I
    capture more than one channel (passing the trigger channel first), with no pretrigger samples set, then triggering and capturing both work fine. However, if I do the same with the pretrigger sample > 0 I get the following error:
    Error -10621 occurred at AI Control. Possible reason(s):
    NI-DAQ LV: The specified trigger signal cannot be assigned to the trigger resource.  
    I don't se any such limitation explained in the user manual, and searching the forum, I have found a few other people that had the
    same
    problem
    but they did not have solutions. Any ideas?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I'm sorry for double-posting this. I was trying to post it in the DAQ board and it kept ending up on the LabView board.

  • When using more than one tab, once I have opened a pdf using firefox my laptop will not allow me to type or click in another tab unless I drag the pdf into it's own window?

    when using more than one tab, once I have opened a .pdf using firefox my laptop will not allow me to type or click in another tab unless I drag the .pdf into it's own window? not a major problem just irritating.

    I found the cause but no solution, it's actually a plugin that does that: divx plus weblpayer (it gets installed when you install DivX on your system), if you disable it and restart firefox it all works again. But I want that plugin... so DivX need to fix this, unless it is a Firefox bug in its own core... anyway these two together creates the problem.
    (I'm running Firefox 9.x on OSX Lion)
    I also wish firefox tab tear out tab worked more like chrome's tab tear out, much friendlier...

  • Rendering Error when using more than one DataSheetView on a Enterprise Wiki-Page

    Hi Experts,
    how to reproduce:
    Add two Custom Lists with some Fields (Add Lookup-Columns to both Lists).
    Add a DataSheetView to each List and mark it as Default-View
    Create a Enterprise Wiki-Page
    Add a WebPart (Custom-List-1)
    You will see the Content from List 1 as DataSheet-View (because it is the Default-View)
    Add another WebPart below the previous added WebPart (Custom-List-2)
    You will see the Content from List 2 as DataSheet-View (because it is the Default-View)
    Notice that the First DataSheet has faulty Rendering. The Lookup-Columns having more than one 'Arror-Down' Image and it is even on the left. If you click into different Column, different row you get the same.
    I can reproduce this behaviour anytime.
    Environment: SharePoint 2013 Enterprise, IE10
    If you use Development-Tools to identify first datarow of first DataSheet you can see that it has to do something with the related <Input>-Tags:
    <div class="combobox-placeholder" id="jsgrid_combobox" style="left: 27px; top: 32px; width: 117px; height: 29px; border-top-color: currentColor; border-right-color: currentColor; border-bottom-color: currentColor; border-left-color:
    currentColor; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; visibility: inherit; ; direction: ltr; min-width:
    117px; background-color: transparent;">
    <input class="cb-textbox " style="width: 156px; height: 25px;" dir="ltr" type="text"/><input tabindex="-1" title="Dropdown" class="combobox-img" style="height: 29px;"
    dir="ltr" type="button" value="▼"/><input class="cb-textbox " style="width: 84px; height: 25px;" dir="ltr" type="text"/><input tabindex="-1" title="Dropdown"
    class="combobox-img" style="height: 29px;" dir="ltr" type="button" value="▼"/>
    Please have a look into it. Current Workaround for me is to have a Default-ListView in first WebPart. But then Customer has to click the Edit-Button to Change the Item in the releated EditForm. This is a Show-Stopper here!
    With Best Regards,
    Ronny

    Hi Ronny,
    According to your description, the lookup column would render incorrectly when adding more than one datasheet view in the Enterprise Wiki page.
    I tested the same scenario per your post, and I got the same results as you got.
    We will help to submit the issue to proper pipeline for you.
    Again, thank you for your report which will definitely make SharePoint a better products. There might be some time delay. 
    Appreciate your time and patience.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

  • IMac (2008) OS10.6.8 - Main menu freezes when running more than one application at a time.  Apple and 3rd party applications - all freeze the main menu.  Safe mode seems to work OK. Tried repairing permissions - didn't work.

    For the past 60 days I've experienced Main Menu freeze when running more than one application at a time.  iPhoto, Preview, Text Edit, Epson Scan, Firefox and Thunderbird are the apps I use almost daily.  No matter what I do, when more than one is running they will freeze the Main Menu (top of the screen).  I've tried booting is Safe Mode and I don't seem to have a problem.  I've tried several suggestions from repairing permission (DiskUtility) to eliminating specifis login items.  Nothing works. I've posted this issue on the Apple forum several times and no one else has experienced this problem.  I hesitate to take my iMac to the Apple Store or a private Apple repair service until I've exhausted all of my options.  Do I have any more options?    

    Question:  Everytime an app crashes I have the option to report it to Apple - which I usually do.  But I've NEVER reported a Main Menu freeze because it never asks me to
    There's really no need to submit to Apple, it's just a round file cabinet on the other end, especially with 10.6 or earlier.
    This sure sounds like a resource problem...
    See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
    Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
    How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
    In the Memory tab, are there a lot of Pageouts?

  • Startup issue when having more than one database on machine

    Startup issue when having more than one database on machine:
    I’ve installed two databases.
    When I shutdown one of the database and try to start it up using
    Startup pfile=’…location..’;
    I get ora-12514: TNS: listener does not currently know of service rquirest in connect descriptor
    when I try it again after 3 seconds, I get a new error, ora-01041: internal error. Hostdef extension doesn’t exist
    Shutdown and Startup gave no problems when I had one database. Why am I getting problems when I have two databases?
    I’m using: show parameter pfile|spfile; to make sure I have the right parameter locations, so the error shouldn’t be from location.
    I’ve never installed two databases on one machine, so maybe I’m making a first-timer’s error.
    Anyone know how to get this working, i.e. starting and stopping DB without issues?
    Using oracle 11gR2 on Windows 7 64bit, all is working normal.
    Thanks,

  • I want to order photos on iPhoto. I have logged in one photo, and then my choices are cancel and buy now. How do I order more than one photo at a time?

    I would like to order more than one photo on iPhoto. I have downloaded one picture, and then my choices are cancel and buy now. I would like to download other photos to have them printed, too. How do I do that?

    Wich version of iPhoto do you have? You need iPhoto '09 or '11 to order prints.
    Make an album of all photos you want to order in the same order.
    Then select all photos at once, when you use Share > order prints.
    You should see a panel like this, where you can mark the quantities. The screenshot is from iPhoto 9.6:

    Help! Can I import more than one photo album onto my IPad from my PC and if so how?

    Yes and it's very easy to do once you know what to do.
    Place all of the photo albums that you want to transfer to the iPad into one main photos album on your PC. When your iPad is connected to your computer's iTunes and after you have selected the iPad under Devices, click on the Photos tab and in the Sync Photos from heading - select that main photos album that you place all of your other photos folders into - select each album that you want to sync - and then click on Apply in the lower right corner to sync the photos to the iPad.

  • Network or database calls are made when joining more than one table

    Hi Friends,
    could anybody please let me know how may networks are called when joining more than one table.
    Thanks
    Rinky

    Hi Rinky,
      Normally when a JOIN between two database tables is made then following steps occur:-
    1) The control goes to database. Based on the JOINING and WHERE condition, an internal table is created in the DATABASE only which is filled. So here the computation is done at DATABASE level.
    2) Once the internal table is filled at database level, it is sent back to the application level.
    A Join operation normally minimizes the round trips to the database as most of the computation is done at database level only and results sent back to the Application layer.
    <b>Thus for a simple JOIN OPERATION makes a single DATABASE call.</b>
    NOTE: If you are satisfied with the explanation, then please reward points
               accordingly :).
    Thanks and regards,
    Ravi .

  • NTLM Authentication : why is it not possible to create more than one NTLM realm ?

    Hello,
    I'm wondering why it is not possible to create more than one NTLM realm on a wsa.
    Can you explain exactly what is the blocking point ?
    Thanks in advance
    Regards

    Well, at this point (pre 7.5), there isn't an agent, the WSA is joined to the domain, just like a Windows box, it authenticates via that trust relationship.  From that point it is all based on how NT/Active Directory domains work.   As long as there is a trust between the domains, you can can auth users from as many domains as you like.
    There is an agent in the works.  The ADAgent will be released with 7.5.  The code is already available, it was released with the ASA ver 8.4, and it will be used to pass authentication info to the WSA.  At this point, current versions still require trust relationships between all of the domains touched.
    Taken from the setup guide: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/ibf/setup_guide/ibf10_install.html#wp1054011
    Before you configure even a single domain controller machine using the
    adacfg dc create
    command, ensure that the AD Agent machine is first joined to a domain (for example, domain
    J
    ) that has a trust relationship with each and every domain (for example, domain
    D[i]
    ) that it will monitor for user authentications (through the domain controller machines that you will be configuring on the AD Agent machine).
    Depending on your Active Directory domain structure, the following scenarios are possible:
    1. Single Forest, Single Domain—There is only one domain, D[i] for all domain controller machines, which is one and the same as domain J. The AD Agent machine must first be joined to this single domain, and since no other domains are involved, there is no need to configure any trust relationship with any other domain.
    2. Single Forest, Multiple Domains—All the domains in a single forest already have an inherent two-way trust relationship with each other. Thus, the AD Agent must first be joined to one of the domains, J, in this forest, with this domain J not necessarily being identical to any of the domains D[i] corresponding to the domain controller machines. Because of the inherent trust relationship between domain J and each of the domains D[i], there is no need to explicitly configure any trust relationships.
    3. Multiple Forests, Multiple Domains—It is possible that domain J might belong to a forest that is different than the forest to which one or more of the domains D[i] corresponding to the domain controller machines belong. In this case, you must explicitly ensure that each of the domains D[i] has an effective trust relationship with domain J, in at least one of the following two ways:
    a. A two-way external trust relationship can be established between the two domains, D[i] and J
    b. A two-way forest trust relationship can be established between the the forest corresponding to domain D[i] and the forest corresponding to domain J
