Iphoto keeps asking to recover photos at every ipad synch

Every time I synch my MAC with my Ipad, Iphoto keeps popping up an alert that tells me that I have 5 pictures to import. If I tell I don't want to synch, makes an empty folder named Recovered Photos_2, 3, 4.... any answer to this?

Probably the best solution is not to have iPhoto import your images automatically every time you connect your iPad to the computer.
If so, then go to preferences/general tab and go to 'connecting camera opens' and choose none.

  • TS3745 iphoto keeps creating a recovered photo file

    Everytime I open iphoto it says there are photos that have not yet been imported.  Would I like to import now?  I click yes but this happens everytime I open iphoto.  I have the directions to move the recovered photos file to the desktop.  However, it still does it when I open iphoto and I have notice that each time I click yes it then creates 2 more recovered photos files.

    Quit iPhoto and to to the iPhoto library (by default in your pictures folder) - right click (control click) on it and select show package contents - find the folder named import (or importing) and drag it to the desktop - DO NOT MAKE ANY OTHER CHANGES - launch iPhoto and you will be fine.
    Open the import(ing) folder and if there is nothing in it that you need move it to the trash and empty the trash

  • IPhoto keeps asking me to import 2 lost photos everytime I open it

    iPhoto keeps asking me to import 2 lost photos everytime I open it,
    allowing me to choose yes/no, yes - save to a new recovery, no - save in a flie directory
    and in which the two photos are gone ages ago,
    it's causing me so much troubles.
    What can I do?

    quit iPhoto and go to your iPhoto library and right click (control click) on it and select "show package contents" - look through it and find the folder named import (or importing) and drag it to the desktop - make NO other changes of any sort
    Close that and launch iPhoto - you will be fine - you can then trash the import(ing) folder form the desktop (or open it to be sure it has no photos you want in it)

  • Why does iPhoto keep asking me to confirm faces after they are already confirmed?

    Why does iPhoto keep asking me to confirm faces after they are already confirmed?
    Once it searches for photos containing (insert name) and says "(insert name) maybe found in 1,750 photos". I click to confirm the said person and it highlights the photos already found in that persons "folder", which already contains 662 photos AND it does not show any of the unconfirmed photos. However, it told me that it found 1,750 photos....where are the missing unconfirmed pictures for me to tag? I have already rebuilt my thumbnails (which already took 3 days to do as I have MANY photos).

    You are running Firefox 34, the most recent version is 35.0.1. If you are having trouble updating, please try downloading the most recent version from www.getfirefox.com and installing it over your existing version. It will save your information but update Firefox to the newest version.

  • IPhoto 6 Hangs When "Recovered Photos" Are Opened

    iPhoto 6 "recovered" 300+ photos when I updated from iPhoto 5. I can still see the recovered photos in both my library and albums, but if I double-click on the photos, iPhoto 6 hangs with a spinning ball icon requiring a Force Quit to recover. I can open the photos in the "Recovered Photos" album, but I'm not sure how to get them back into my library and other albums. Has anyone been able to do this?
    Thanks, Will

    When upgrading to iPhoto 6, the 'recovered photos' it finds are stored as follows:
    a if you opt to import the photos when iPhoto asks, they are left where iPhoto found them (or lost them, depending on how you view it...) in the 'year' folder system, within the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder; e.g. 2005>12>15>photo.jpg, 2003>10>05>photo2.jpg etc. Within iPhoto itself the photos are grouped in one new roll, and an album is created in the Source list called "Recovered Photos".
    b if you opt not to import the photos, they are moved from the 'year' folder system in the Finder into one folder within the iPhoto Library folder, entitled "Recovered Photos". The 'year' folders can be deleted, if they are still there - you should find that they are empty and they are not used by iPhoto 6.
    In Case b you can move the "Recovered Photos" folder to anywhere you like, e.g the Desktop, as the photos are no longer associated with iPhoto. In fact, if you decide you need to import some or all of the photos back into iPhoto, you will have to move the RP folder to another location as iPhoto will disallow any import from within the iPhoto Library folder.
    Take care either way; in my case I had 1014 recovered photos, which included all of the following:
    a originals of some of my photos, the edited versions were still in iPhoto
    b random duplicates of original photos
    c photos, both original and edited versions, which I had deleted long ago - sometimes as long as 2-3 years, many versions of iPhoto ago!
    When I have chance soon I intend to document my own personal recovery procedure / experience, in case it helps anyone else when upgrading. In the meantime, feel free to ask if you have any questions...

  • Iphoto keeps asking to update thumbnails - EACH TIME

    iPhoto iphoto keeps asking to update thumbnails - EACH TIME. I've told it ignore 5 times, and each sessions involves about 100 photos and 2 horus of clicking no - help!
    Where is the file that I can update?
    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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, 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.

  • IPhoto keeps asking to set up Facebook and Flickr accounts

    iPhoto keeps asking to set up the Flickr and Facebook accounts. This is despite the fact that i have done so many times. I have tried restarting (thought it was a keychain thing) and removing permissions from the flickr website and then setting up again. But to no avail...
    Can someone help please?

    Hello Somos,
    This does sound like a keychain issue.
    I would try the following:
    1.) Remove:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iphoto (there will be more than 1)
    ~/Librry/caches
    2.) Restart computer
    3.) If issue persists remove ~/Library/Keychains -- this will remove all saved passwords so don't delete the file
    4.) Restart computer again
    5.) If this resolves the issue restore the old Keychains folder and then open Key Chain Access from /Applications/Utilities/ and try repairing keychain.
    Hope that helps.

  • ITunes keeps asking my security questions on every purchase

    iTunes keeps asking my security questions on every purchase. I forget the message, but it said someting about this being my first time dowloading. I know the answers, so I enter them and proceed to download my purchase. But next time I make a purchase I have to answer them again.

  • Safari (for PC) keeps asking company network password in every boot.

    Safari PC version keeps asking company network password in every boot. Even if I checked the remember box, nothing changes. (ver 5.1.7 7534.57.2). I also use other browsers (Chrome, IE, Firefox), I entered the password once and that is all.

    Hello,
    Please open the Keychain Access program in Applications > Utilites. In the Edit menu, choose Change Sttings for Keychain 'Login'. Make sure none of the boxes is ticked and confirm by pressing save.
    That should fix the problem.

  • Why does Iphoto keep asking me to authenticate my User ID?

    Why does Iphoto keep asking me to authenticate my User ID?

    A bit - it tells me that iPhoto has nothing to do with it but it is a server you are trying to publish to. What server? ME,com? FaceBook.com? Flickr.com? ????
    The first thing to do is go to the servers listed in your iPhoto preferences and re-enter the usernmae and password for the service that you have the incorrect information for

    Itunes keeps asking to verify pament info,every time I do it 1 dollar is being charged.How to fix?

    I'm having the same issue.  I've been completely locked out of the app store because MLB.com is trying to charge me $3.13.  I recently updated my phone to iOS 7.0.4 and I need to re-download my apps.  It doesn't seem very fair that I cant access the apps that I have paid for and my FREE apps because of one app.  I would understand if MLB at bat wasnt working but I now have ZERO apps on my phone minus the basic ones that come with iOS...Someone help us!!  =O 

  • Spill water on my Iphone and I want to recover photos on my Ipad The pictures on the Iphone were not shared with other apple devices is it possible get my photos from the iCloud ?

    spill water on my Iphone and I want to recover photos on my Ipad The pictures on the Iphone were not shared with other apple devices is it possible get my photos from the iCloud ?

    Had you set your iPhone up to use Photo Stream?
    Had your performed an iCloud backup of your iPhone before it was damaged?
    If you did neither of the above, then your photos are not in the cloud, and they are gone.
    If you performed an iCloud backup, then it would contain the photos in the iPhone's Camera Roll (taken on the iPhone) at the time of your last backup.  You could restore this iCloud backup to a device.
    If your iPhone used Photo Stream, those photos are immediately accessible to your iPad if you set it up to use the same Photo Stream.

  • TS1702 Just upgraded to the latest iTunes and iPhoto and now cannot change photos on my iPad, can anyone help please?

    Just upgraded to the latest iTunes and iPhoto and now cannot change photos on my iPad, can anyone help please?

    Try one or more of the following:
    > Restart Your Computer
    > Uninstall and Reinstall iTunes
    > Reset iPod (nothing will get deleted)
    > Look in My Computer (Windows 98, XP) OR Computer (Windows Vista or 7) and see if your iPod is in there.
    In some cases (and this happened to me before) plug your iPod in and out your computer a few times. It should get it going. If not, then I strongly recommend starting your computer.
