IPhoto Picture Album Alert

Hi,
I am making a picture album with iPhoto 09 and when I pressed "Buy Book" it says "Your book seems to have frames on one or more pages that do not contain photos. You must either change the layout of those pages or place photos in those frames before you can buy this book"
I think the problem is that on some of the pictures there is a little ! alert symbol in the top right of the picture. I've tried zooming the picture in and out but it won't go away.
Thanks
Victor

That won't be the reason for the message. Do you have any pages with a gray background? If so those are probably backgrounds that require a photo. See the screenshot below:
Click to view full size
The triangle alert next to images indicate that the photo is below the 180 dpi minimum resolution (for that frame) that Apple has set for printing photos. They may print OK depending on how far from the minimum they are. What are the pixel dimensions of some of the pictures that show that warning and what page layout and frame are they in?

  • IPhoto picture albums missing

    After upgrading to Yosemite and or iPhoto 9.6 some of my picture albums have disappeared.  The pictures are still on iPhoto, is there any way to get them back?  I don't want to go through over 15,000 photos to make new albums.

    Do the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.
    If that fails to recover the albums your best bet would be to restore your library from the backup created just prior to upgrading to iPhoto 9.6.

  • How do you combine 2 iPhoto picture albums?

    How do you combine 2 photo albums?
    Can you add pictures to a book once you've already started it?

    What i did to combine an ablum was to change the album information so it is exactly the same as the one you want to merge it with. i did this and it worked. it has to be exactly the same, word for word. to edit the album information, right-click on the album and click "get info". a Box will appear. click on the 2nd tab to edit info. you can even change the album cover!
    *note: this hasn't been tested for music downloaded from the iTunes Store.
    Hope This Helps!

  • I am trying to order an iphoto picture album. A window comes up asking me to redo my acct info. I have done this repeatedly to no avail. I went to store, then to account, enabled the quick click but this did not help either.

    Can you help? I am trying to order an iphoto album but a window comes up asking that I check my account info. I have done that, it is correct, and the quick click is enabled. All info is correct but it will not acknowledge it or take my order.

    Perhaps it would be helpful for you to view the page source code of this page

  • Newbie question - synchronizing iPhoto picture with Aperture

    Hello everyone. Sorry to pop a somewhat ******** person but I'm unable to find the straight-forward answer from the forum so here I go.
    I just installed Aperture 3, and was able to import the iPhoto picture albums. However, when I make picture modifications from Aperture, or import new pictures in iPhoto, both applications do not sync up. Is there a way that both Aperture, and iPhoto, can syncrhonize the changes? I'm new to this, so please pardon my ******** question.

    Hi Terence,
    Thanks for the clarification. I thought Aperture works like a plug-in for providing more editing flexibility.
    Now, did I do it right by "importing" the iPhoto pictures? or there's a different way (if any) that I should have done? What I've been doing in the past, is the ability to share iPhoto album with my wife on the same iMac. When I make changes or additions from my user profile, my wife can see those changes from her profile and vice versa. Will Aperture give me the same flexibility?
    Thank you all for your time and feedback. I appreciate it.

  • What happens if I make a picture album on my ipad or iPhone and then sync with my Mac? Will it add a new album to iPhoto on my Mac? Also, what will happen if I add pictures on my ipad to existing albums that I made in iPhoto on my Mac?

    So what I have gleemed from this thread - is that Apple will not help me if an iPad mini is dropped and the screen breaks.  I would have lived without the insurance if I could have simply bought a new screen and then had it replaced by Apple.
    On something so fragile I would have expected a piece of glass to be a replacement part. But I am glad I made this post because now I no for sure if I break the screen there is no way to have it fixed by Apple and keep it in Warranty.
    Yup, kind of like anything else you accidentally break that is more cost effective to replace than to repair. Keep that iPad away from the toddler

  • Picture album covers - Problem when sync to iPhoto 9.4.2 (710.42) / IOS 6.0

    Hello,
    My problem concerns the iphone picture album covers. As I am a photographer, I want to chose my picture album cover for all the albums I synchronized from iPhoto to my iPhone.
    The trick that was working before: I was only changing the date (for an earlier one) of the picture I wanted to appear as my iphone albums cover pictures.
    Since the last update of iphoto, all the pictures covers changed in my iphone but without respecting any rule (neither the alphabetical name, the chronological order, or the iphoto album cover are taken as rule). However, it is always the same picture that re appear as album cover picture.
    Question: which picture is taken to be the album cover picture when synchronized from iPhoto to iPhone. What is the rule??
    Thank you all.

    If it's because of a damages preference file you can try this fix:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • Hundreds of my iPhoto pictures will not be copied and will not show when I double-click on them.  When I do in iPhoto an exclamation surrounded by a triangle appears.  Though I can see the picture in the small tiles below it will not expand.

    Hundreds of my iPhoto pictures will not be copied and will not show when I double-click on them.  When I do in iPhoto an exclamation surrounded by a triangle appears.  Though I can see the picture in the small tiles below it will not expand.  I also cannot attach any of these pics into an e-mail or into any other file.  I have already went through all 3 Repair options and when that did not solve it went through a complete Rebuild.  Any Help?!  Any Suggestions on how to fix this?!  I have spent almost 2 days now going through all of the published help.
    I have backups going back 6 months - I have not had the real need to check every album before - but - all of my backups also have this same problem.

    The triangle with the ! indicates that the connection between the thumbnail and the orginal is missing - this can be caused by many things including database corruption and user action emoving the originals photos on urpose or by accident
    If the database is corrupted then rebuilding is the solution - backup and depress the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild your database  --  if the iPhoto rebuild does not cure the problem then download iPhoto Library manager and use its rebuild command which creates a totally new library leaving the existing one untouched
    If you have deleted the photos then you need to start over with a new library and import the photos you have not deleted into it
    You can select one of the problem photos and use the reveal original in finder commander (file menu) to see if the original is there - if it is a finder window will open showing it

  • Can I share my iphoto pictures with AT

    Can I share my iphoto pictures with my AT&T Uverse tv?

    Yes, this is exactly how I use iPhoto on my system.
    You do need to update the permissions on the iPhoto directory after it's moved to the Shared folder. the default permissions will only permit your account to fully access the files, your wife's account will get errors or not see thumbnails correctly when accessing the pictures from iPhoto in her account.
    After moving the iPhoto Library into Shared (and with iPhoto closed), Get Info on the iPhoto Library folder and change the Others access to Read+Write. Let it apply to all enclosed folders, also. Then hold down the Option key while starting iPhoto and choose the Shared version of the folder as your Library. Repeat the iPhoto launch w/option key on the other account as well and each user will access the same set of pictures, albums, keywords, etc. Just make sure you don't open iPhoto from both accounts at the same time. Close iPhoto before walking away from the computer or letting the other person logon.

  • How to recover iphoto pictures from a hard drive

    My macbook pro got water on it and it doesn't work anymore. I bought a new one, but want to recover the information from the hard drive in the old computer. I am trying to recover my iphoto pictures, but I cannot open the iphoto version in my old drive. Can you help? How can I recover the pictures from my iphoto library? Thank you for your suggestions.

    Are you able to mount the old drive so you can access files on it?  From your comment "I cannot open the iphoto version in my old drive"  I'm assuming you can somehow.
    Therefore copy the library to your new Mac and try to open the library from there.  If you can copy the library to you new Mac but can't open it with iPhoto open it with the Finder and follow these directions:
    Starting over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1. Open the library package like this.
    2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
    This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

  • IPhoto new albums problem

    Hi,
    I've noticed a weird problem with my iPhoto lately. I can create new albums just fine in iPhoto itself, but when I go to my Finder and hit Pictures>iPhoto Library>Albums, the new albums don't show up as new folders. Is there something wrong here, or am I just using an outdated version of iPhoto?

    As long as the albums are there when iPhoto is open, don't worry about it. You shouldn't be poking around in the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder anyway — all you can do in there is corrupt iPhoto's database and make the app lose track of the rest of your stuff. There is no reason to go there at all — everything you need to do with your photos can and should be done from within iPhoto.

  • Some iphoto pictures not usable as desktop background

    I want to set my desktop background as a slideshow of my favourite iPhoto'08 pictures. While experimenting, I've discovered that some of my iPhoto pictures don't seem to work as a desktop background.
    Here's what I do (and note that I'm translating from a Swedish version of OSX here):
    Right-click on the desktop, choose 'Change desktop background'. In the 'Desktop and Screensaver' dialog, Desktop tab, scroll down the left-hand side list of iPhoto albums (among other things), and select my favourite iPhoto album (Flagged). Wait for the previews to load. Select one of the pictures.
    Now, what happens can be one of two things. Either I'll see a slightly bigger preview in the left upper corner of the dialog and I'll see the desktop background change to the picture in question. Or I'll only see the slightly bigger preview in the left upper corner, and the desktop background will turn a boring solid color.
    Now, iPhoto itself has no problems with these pictures, and shows them properly. Also, if I use the little + below the left-hand side list to add a folder on the harddrive directly to the list, I can get the broken pictures to show up correctly, as long as I don't go through iPhoto.
    So, yeah, that gives me a potential workaround: Export my favourite album now and then, and use the exported folder as background slideshow source. I'd rather have a better solution, where things just work like they're supposed to.
    The pattern I've noticed is that iPhoto-modified pictures work fine, non-iPhoto-modified pictures don't seem to work. (That is, if right-clicking on a preview in iPhoto has the menu item 'Show original file' active, the picture will work, if the item is greyed out, the picture won't work.)
    A relevant detail in this may be that I've set iPhoto to not copy imported pictures into the library.
    Any hints, clues? Now what?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    I think this relates to using a Referenced Library:
    iPhoto-modified pictures work fine, non-iPhoto-modified pictures don't seem to work.
    In other words, iPhoto will share the files it controls (the modifieds are inside the Library Package) and not the ones that it wont.
    Simple test: Create a Managed Library (Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library', import a few pics and see if that works as expected.

  • IPhoto picture to iPhone

    Can I send an iPhoto picture in my iMac to my iPhone for inclusion into the iPhone photo gallery. I apologize for my inability to solve this issue.

    The faster way to move a lot of pictures from you iPhoto to your iPhone is to use your iTunes interface for your iPhone.
    1. In iPhoto, create a new album with all the photos you want on your iPhone.
    2. Sync your iPhone to your computer, which will open up iTunes.
    3. In iTunes, select your iPhone, which will open the management tabs.
    4. Select Photos > Sync photos from iPhoto > Select albums > check the album you created in iPhoto
    5. Select Apply.
