IPhoto interacting with Facebook Albums...

I just reorganized all of my facebook photos into new albums.  I wanted to upload some more photos directly from iPhoto but it is NOT recognizing any of my new albums.  How do I get it to bring in the names of these new albums so I can use them properly?  Is it some kind of re-booting I need to do?? Preferences??
Thank you...

That is not the way it works
You can not "link" iPhoto to existing Facebook albums - you create them in iPhoto and then there is bi-directional syncing between that album in facebook and iPhoto. If you create albums in Facebook you can not manage them from iPhoto - only albums created in iPhoto

  • IOS X Yosemite, iPhoto 9.6, Facebook albums with more than 25 pictures

    I have linked my Facebook albums to iPhoto. I started using iOS X Yosemite and iPhoto 9.6 a couple of days ago. Now when I select in iPhoto any Facebook album with more than 25 pictures, it automatically removes all pictures after the 25th picture. However, the pictures remain in Facebook but I want to view them in iPhoto. How can I retrieve them?

    The latest iOS (10.10.2) and iPhoto (9.6.1) solved this problem. Thanks to Apple for informing me by phone!

  • Iphoto deletes my facebook albums

    I'm having a serious issue with my iphoto program!
    Whenever I use the tool in iphoto to 'share' an album from my iphoto to facebook, I click on share, facebook, new album... & automatically, a pop up appears saying that one of my facebook albums (a different one each time) has been removed from facebook & would I like to save the photos in an event on iphoto or just delete them!
    This has lead to my having numerous of my facebook albums removed from my facebook. I never once manually deleted them or moved them, or did anything remotely similar; iphoto seems to be doing it all on its own & its extremely frustrating as when it removes my albums, i obviously loose all the data on facebook that goes with that album ie: comments, likes, etc...
    PLEASE help!!!!

    I thought this problem was solved, but it happened again to my wife tonight. It makes me 16 shades of purple MAD!!!  WHY is iPhoto deleting Facebook albums?! EVER?!? If I go and add or change an album in my browser, the next time iPhoto wakes up, it should DOWNLOAD and KEEP my albums as i left them on FB. Obviously, FB is always the most current version I want.

  • I'm in iphoto loop with Facebook that says there's a problem with IPhoto uploader. Try again later"  It's an eternal loop and no matter what it puts me back to Setup to publish IPHOTO every time and then will not publish.

    I'm in an Iphoto loop with iPhoto uploader error and Facebook.  I cannot post to Facebook as it sends me back to setup again and then says there is an error with iPhoto uploader.  "Try again later"  This has been going on since I joined Facebook.  Cannot figure out what to do

    have you tried posting this question in the iPhoto forum? https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/iphoto

  • IPhoto Sharing with Facebook - Privacy issues

    When I Share a photo or album from iPhoto to Facebook and select "Friends" the privacy settings for said pictures get overwritten once in FB to "Only Me". I have to log into the FB browser and manually chg the settings. Why does this happen?

    My wife and I are currently on our long-term vacation, and we were using iPhoto to upload all our photos onto her Facebook account, including descriptions for each photo already edited. That is what sold us to using iPhoto: seamless integration with editing and labeling descriptions of our photos using iPhoto to Facebook. Now, just yesterday whilst in our hostel, we discovered that we are having the same loop-sign in problem that you have just described. We were able to upload all our photos and albums up until recently. This must be a bug, and seems to have happened when Facebook updated their app a week or so ago. Guess that teaches me to update our apps accordingly. Now, we are stuck on an incomplete album, awaiting for Apple to fix whatever bug there is. Otherwise, my wife and I will have to reevaluate what to do next, as our pictures and albums keep piling on until we have the chance to upload them. If anyone has a solution or quick fix, that would be most appreciated! :'(

  • Does iphoto automatically download facebook albums?

    *** you can skip the next paragraph***
    I've been scanning, sorting and uploading family photos over the past few days and I'm finding iPhoto's integration with various web services ennerving.
    First, hundreds of megabytes of photos started uploading to photostream, seemingly at full quality, I stopped the process after about 300MB had been uploaded. The behaviour of uploading full quality photos to Photostream is ********! Some of the photos were about 10MB each...
    Anyway I found the setting for that and disabled it, it's in the PhotoStream preference tab.
    Now I noticed that after uploading an album to Facebook with the share feature, iPhoto didn't want to let me change anything locally without changing it on Facebook too. So some photos that were mainly of friends of the family, that I wanted to delete locally, because it's no one I really care about, but keep on facebook, but iPhoto wanted to remove them from Facebook too! And the opposite problem, some photos (rare) are somewhat inapropriate for Facebook, whether it being me naked at 1 year old or throwing up all over the place (examples, not necessarily my situation), but I can't choose to omit any photos from my albums for sharing on facebook either, it wants the whole album or nothing at all. What the ****.
    Now I thought I was being smart by exporting a bunch of photos to file and manually uploading them to facebook, thus avoiding all these sync. problems I just described. But as soon as the album was manually uploaded, iPhoto decides to download all those photos from Facebook to synchronize my computer to facebook 100%. What the f#&^?! That's exactly what I wanted to get around. And now I have duplicates of a 100+ photo album and my only option is to revert to sharing it from iPhoto, thus uploading all the **** photos again and losing all control.
    Is there any way around this? I suppose I could just disconnect facebook from my iPhoto...

    When I use iPhoto for iOS to share to Facebook I first get a chance to share one photo or select several.
    Then I see a choice to upload to an album, usually Wall Photos, but there in only that one album visible.
    Tap on that album and more choices come up. These include, eventually, all of my albums. I can then choose the album to which I want to upload the photo(s).

  • Need help with Facebook albums

    Last week I installed iPhoto 09 and uploaded my first album to Facebook - I named this album "2009". I thought I could just add photos from any event to this album, but when I tried to add photos from an event I created today called "Snow" it didn't work. Then I noticed the little icon that looks like a wifi signal was no longer in the title bar of album "2009" under the Facebook panel. Does this mean that album is no longer automatically updating to Facebook? Is there a way I can fix this? Is there a time limit on how long the albums stay dynamic?
    I hope this question is clear; thanks in advance for any help!

    Might be worth trying one more time after doing the following. Use the menu item Edit > Preferences > Advanced tab and tap Reset cache, then delete any files inside the ...<Music>\iTunes\iTunes Media\Download\ folder (or ...\<Media Folder>\Download\ if your media folder is at a non-standard location)
    If things still don't work out open the menu item Store > View My Account, in the Purchase History section tap the link that says See All, then tap the little arrow to the left of the purchase that includes the problem items, tap the Report a Problem button, and then the Report a Problem link for an actual item that won't work properly. Fill in the details and await a reply.

  • Could i use visual studio to make a windows form that could interact with facebook?

    I'm a beginner to windows forms and have just read my way through tutorials at learnc++.com so i want to get started on a project to practice my c++ and also a project that i could find usefull.
    What I want to do is check a facebook group page every minute for new posts that contain certain words. So im thinking i could make a web browser and then get the document from the facebook group page and extract the html from it to search for certain keywords. 
    I realize that I won't be able to just do this straight away and will have to learn more about certain functions and how to get html from a webpage. Where can i learn the skills I would need to be able to do this? I'm going to try searching youtube for related
    tutorials and I'm guessing that this site has all the documentation i will need to understand the functions to pull the html from a webpage.
    please help me to figure out how I could achieve this, if i haven't been clear I will try to reply to any questions you have. 
    Thanks for reading,
    Jake

  • OS X 10.5.8 - Why can't I click and interact with facebook as normal? Buttons do not work. When are you going to fix this?

    I just updated to the new firefox, and suddenly I can't comment, like things, click on the icons, add friends, poke friends, replay to comments, and so on.

    The www<i></i>.photoshopuser<i></i>.com server doesn't send a required intermediate "PositiveSSL CA" certificate issued by Comodo.
    You can inspect the certificate chain via a site like this:
    *http://www.networking4all.com/en/support/tools/site+check/
    You can Copy and Paste the certificate text of the missing intermediate certificate on the www.networking4all.com site to a .cer text file and import the certificate(s) in the Certificate Manager.<br />
    DON'T set any trust bits, those are only required for root certificates and should never be set for intermediate certificates.

  • Iphoto library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Will my Facebook albums remain?

    I just upgraded my computer to yosemite and that includes the iPhoto application.
    After opening iPhoto it says "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto." I'm worried that if I chose to upgrade I will 1. lose all my photos and 2. have my synced facebok albums taken off Facebook.
    One time I moved my iPhoto library to an external hard drive and lost all my Facebook album photos so I don't want to make the same mistake.
    So does anyone know if I chose to go through with this upgrade will I lose my photos in the iPhoto and the synced albums on Facebook? If I do lose photos, how do I go recover my previous iPhoto version?

    Just to confirm. When I saved a copy of my iPhoto library on my external harddrive that's "backing-up" right?
    Also, is there anyway on Facebook to tell which albums are synced with my iPhoto so that I know which ones will be gone if something does go wrong?
    Sorry one more question Larry. I keep reading issues people are having with upgrading their iPhoto to 9.6 and the upgraded iPhoto does not recognize their library (see: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6676471). If this happens to me and I have to repair or re-install my iPhoto will my Facebook albums be affected?
    Thanks for your help Larry I appreciate it

  • Any way to get iPhoto'09 to recognise existing Facebook albums?

    Is there any way to get iPhoto '09 to recognise existing Facebook albums?
    It would be nice to have all the previous albums I've uploaded to be listed in iPhoto and all the 100's of people I've already tagged would serve as a nice basis for the iPhoto face detection to learn who my friends are!

    This is an interesting workaround, but misses the spirit of the original post. I don't know a way to get iPhoto '09 to recognize existing FB albums, but I agree that this is a serious problem with iPhoto '09.
    The iPhoto '09 Facebook and Flickr uploaders have one "cool" feature - they automatically sync iPhotos events with FB "albums" or Flickr "sets", so if you make changes to the photos in iPhoto, then those changes are reflected in the photos on FB and Flickr automagically (this has been working for me in FB but not in Flickr). The more I use this the more I think it's more trouble than it is useful and I wish I could turn it off and just use the old exporters without syncing.
    There are problems with the exporters:
    (1) the constant syncing with FB/Flickr can get annoying if you're making several changes, if you have a slow internet connection or slow computer.
    (2) If you don't actually want the changes to be reflected in the FB/Flickr album (i.e. i delete photos out of iPhoto to make room on my disk for more photos and now the photos are deleted out of facebook) can get not as user friendly as the original Facebook and Flickr exporter was easier and more user-friendly.
    (3) syncing is cool for a computer programmer to do, but what if users don't want it all the time? What if I don't want my Facebook albums to be exactly the same as my iPhoto albums, and I don't want to split out all the photos that I don't want on Facebook into separate events in iPhoto? This lack of support for the truly useful & user friendly (if a bit boring) features is a really unfortunate oversight.
    (3a) in the old version: i can quickly and easily choose exactly which photos from which events I want to upload to FB.
    (3b) as the original questioner mentioned: I can choose whether to upload to into a *new or existing album*. Hands down, this was *the single best feature* of the previous uploaders.
    (in Flickr this is of paramount importance since the free Flickr account only allows 3 "sets" - so, since this fancy iPhoto syncing links your events to sets in Flickr, you'd have to create 3 massive Flickr-only events in iPhoto in order to stay within their restrictions. I like to keep my iPhotos events separate, but I'm perfectly happy uploading photos from different events into one of my three Flickr sets. i'm pretty sure i can still do this with FFXporter or similar.)
    (3b) in the old version: all the photos i upload are put into a "pending" album on FB so that I can tag people, delete some photos (without deleting them off my own iPhoto), etc. before sharing them with all my friends. I'd like to have at least the option to choose whether they go into a pending album first or not.
    (3c) it's further annoying that you cannot browse your iPhoto library directly (from most websites) when searching for photos to upload, you have to export the files first, then browse to where the photos were exported.

  • IPhoto will not allow me to share an album with Facebook

    In the past, I have uploaded albums in iPhoto to my Facebook page. Easy, peasy. Tonight, though, the Facebook link in the "Share" function is dead. What gives?

    Try going to System Preferences > Internet Accounts > Delete your Facebook account from the list.
    Then try to share again and see if it prompts you to log in.

    Regarding iOS 7.0 you have totally lost the plot.
    We buy apple why?

    Intuitive interface.
    Stable software.

    All that Steve Jobs consider sacrosanct.
    Quality is about ongoing support longevity of product.
    Its not about trying to sell to every person on the planet, others are way ahead of you.
    So try respective the customers you have, it wont be long before theirs a better operating system and your lead in hardware is marginal.

    If you have an iPhone or iPad do not update to ISO 7 unless you want an operating system that looks like windows 8. The graphics looks like it was designed by a artistically challenged mongoose and the operating system is not intuitive something apple users expect. Overly complicated ugly and generally change for the sake of apples paranoia since the death of Steve Jobs.
