Iphoto has greyed out events with 0 photos

Perhaps this is baby steps but I've got istream up and running on my macbook air.
At the moment I have pictures taken in November which have events that are greyed out and say 0 photos. When I click on them the photos appear but I don't know how to make sure that they are going to stay? Have I exceeded the 30 day stream time but I these are in the last 1000 photos? If so, what to do to bring them in permanently?
My next step is to break down my huge library on my old mac and bring it over here and pitch it. That library is more than 60GB so I will want to move the meta data and whatever labeling etc I have done on my old iphoto. I tried file export but I lose the event clustering so I think I have to chop it up into little libraries and then move those over. I don't have a need to merge libraries after that.
Am I making sense?
THANKS

For iPhoto 9.1.5:

There's a system component that 's missing that Photos is trying to use. You'll need to boot into the Recovery volume (boot with the Command + R keys held down) and reinstall the system.

IPhoto 11 and one event with 15,000+ photos - help

I am new to Mac, this is my first, but long time PC users (28 years)... so it is a learning curve. My photos were/are on an external hard drive, (due to last computer failure) and undamaged.
I only got my iMac 27 i5 on Friday, and have been importing them. The first time the programme ran - I probably foolishly imported a year's photos in one go (I have since realised the error after it froze).... and when I finally got out of the mess, I discovered I have one event with over 15,000 photographs in.
I have since been importing all my others folder by folder, as opposed to year by year - they go back to 1998.... so a lot in total.
My questions -
1 I have now discovered how to split the events, but it is so time consuming, with so many photos, is there by any chance an easier way.
and whilst I am posting perhaps someone knows how to get around this as well:
2 In Faces, I have gone through - so far - over 5,000 and written in names, but it isn't really very good at recognition, and I wonder whether it is worth carrying on with it - it shows only 2 pictures at a time, go to full screen and all it shows is around 8 - is there any way I can get a load up in one go of the 'same person' - or the computer thinks is the same, and do them in a batch
Thanks for any input, it is appreciated.

I deleted the images of 15k+ and then set about sorting out the duplicates, triplicates and quadruplet folders it seems to have created.... took me ages, and I finally did that.
I had also purchased the Duplicate Annihilator as recommended in another similar thread, but that was going to take almost 4 days, hence I decided that I didn't have time for that to sort it out anyway, so I have done it myself this morning.
I was then asked to rebuild the database, so I set that going at just before 1300 (just over 2 hours ago), I came up from lunch and it was showing 97%.... and 80 mins it is still 97%
I am checking the activity monitor and it shows that it seems to be doing something, ie the nmber of threads stays at 26 but the %CPU keeps chaning, from 101.6 to 101.7 - so is it actually doing anything....iphoto has a black sectin with the circle thing going around in the centre....nothing else showing on the screen... actually watching it for the last minute or so and nothing is happening ... so is it working....
What should I do...
TBH I thought this would all be straightforward, and beginning to regret my choice of computer.... all I can say is it looks great, but isn't working as it should....
On top of that Time Machine has also now told me I need to start a new back-up but no idea where to find start a new back-up.... googling, and using spotlight hasn't brought up the answer yet
Still on 97%

Has anyone had trouble with photo albums after downloading a newer version of iPhoto?

Has anyone had trouble with photo albums and viewing photos after downloading a newer version of iPhoto?

I downloaded mountain lion and then iPhoto '11 in order to tap into iCloud capabilities with all of my devices. (My Mac was outdated in regards to operating platform to do this). After installing iPhoto 11, I had to repair and rebuild my library of photos. However, after doing this, all of my albums were jumbled and, while I can see the image thumbnail, when I click on the thumbnail, and error that looks like a black triangle and gray exclamation pops up as opposed to the larger hi def image I want to view.

Iphotos are greyed out

Imac has been very slow and hanging and crashing. After a software re-install at apple shop, my pics in iphoto are greyed out in event mode. any advice?

With that amount of information, no.
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on eight different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.

Iphoto Library greyed-out

I have recently discovered that I cannot access my iPhoto Library when using Photoshop. I open the pictures folder, they all appear except that the "iPhoto Library" is greyed-out. If I go through "Applications", iPhoto is greyed out. When I use iPhoto I can access the photos. Any ideas or suggestions? (I downloaded iLife8 not long before I encountered this problem)

gazie
Here's how you access photos that are in iPhoto for photoshop:
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
This has always been the way to do this. There has never been a need to access the iPhoto Library Folder using the Finder, and any attempt to do this risked damaging your library.
With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Unix Style Package File. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto. With 10.5 you can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Why is my iPhoto library greyed out in the Screensaver folder selection dialog on one iMac but not my other?

Why is my iPhoto library greyed out in the Screensaver folder selection dialog on one iMac but not my other?

I have an update to my issue above, with a Semi-solution found. I brought my Macbook Air back to the Genus bar today and they were able to identify (using “Activity Monitor”) that when the particular iPhoto library was being launched through iPhoto both Photostream and iPhoto's CPU% usage was excessively high (between 100% - 200% each). She discovered that if we turn off Photostream in iCloud settings iPhoto then behaved fast and snappy and CPU% came back down to a healthier level. When we turned Photostream back on the problem continued. After an hour of trying to trouble shoot why Photostream was causing the issue they recommended I keep Photostream turned off until a future software update/fix comes out. The particular Genus I worked with was not familiar with this issue. I’m very happy to at least be able to use iPhoto again, but if anyone has ideas or theories on how the Photostream conflict can be fixed please share. Thanks.

IPhoto has re-downloaded all the photos in my photo stream thrice since I upgraded to 10.9

iPhoto has re-downloaded all the photos in my photo stream thrice since I upgraded to 10.9. Help?

You might have accidentally used the Command+Option+Delete key combination described below to move them the to iPhoto Trash bin:
Deleting Photos from an iPhoto Library
1 - from an Event or the Photos mode: select the photo(s) and use the Delete key to move the photos to the trash bin. Then empty the iPhoto Trash bin as follows:
2 - from an album, smart album, book, slideshow, card, etc.: select the photo(s) and use the key combination of Command+Option+Delete to move the photos to the trash bin. Then empty the trash bin as above.
NOTE: deleting a photo from an album, slideshow, book, etc., with only the Delete key only deletes that photo from that item. Deleting a photo from an Event deletes ALL occurences of that photo in the library.

Candy Crush icon has greyed out preventing opening of the game

I have been playing the game - Candy Crush Saga - on my iPad2 for the last over 5 months without any problems. Suddenly about 10 days ago the icon which is touched to open the game got greyed out (dimmed) with the words, "Waiting..." below it. Now I am unable to open the game as nothing happens when the icon is touched. The icon cannot be deleted, i. e., the game uninstalled. Trying to reinstall the game from Apple Store is also not possible since the status is shown as "OPEN" not "INSTALL". What has caused the problem and how do I resolve it, please?

wi-fi button on 4S has greyed out and cant turn on wi-fi , any suggestions please ?

First try a simple reset by holding down the home and power button for 15 to 30 seconds until you see the silver apple, then let the device start normally. If issues still persist, you will need to restore and update the iPhone from iTunes on your pc or mac. If after the restore still grey your device may need service or replacement.

My ipad2 safari is not responding and has greyed out

safari on my ipad2 is not responding and has greyed out... is there a way i can sort it out ?

If you follow Bob's instructions.. allow it to cool down.. maybe leave it off overnight.. if the disk fails to start when you power on.. or listen carefully and hear if the disk is failing to spin up properly then you have either dead drive or dead supply.
Is it in warranty or applecare, let apple replace it?
If it is out of applecare even, open it and replace the disk.
How old is the TC? What model from the rubber mat A1xxx? What size disk?
Certain drives are becoming unreliable.. The WD black in Gen2, The Samsung Spinpoint in Gen3 and WD green in Gen3 and Gen4 are none of them great drives.
Out of warranty do the job yourself.. there is plenty of stuff about drive upgrades for the TC.
Excellent instructions here.
