IPhoto storage not disappearing when I delete photos! HELP
Hi all,
My iPhone 4S only has 16 GB and I wanted more storage. I noticed that my photos app costs 2.1 GB so I decided to transfer my photos to my MacBook Air via iPhoto. I then deleted all of those photos on my iPhone. So I still had my photos but on my macbook instead of my phone. I assumed that my 2.1 GB on my photos app would disappear and would say like 0 GB used but it still stays at 2.1 GB being used in my photos app yet I deleted all my photos!!!
I hope somebody knows why this has happened or knows how to fix it.
Thanks everyone for their answers, I tried both you suggestions but still no luck. I then turned off photos in iCloud and it worked. Also it says in my usage...
used: 3.2 GB and available 9.5 GB, that adds up to 12.7 GB so... what about the rest of my 16 GB what happened to the other 3.3 GB?
Thanks,

When i delete photos from photo stream in iphoto .. The pictures are still there on my iphone's photo stream. They are both connected to the same i cloud account.. And i cannot update to ios 5.1 on iphone.. Any help ??
1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.

2)
Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Then on the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
Contnue to use the commpn ID/account for Settings>iTunes and App stores. -
my iphone 4 wont download apps, says my storage is full, but when i delete photos/apps, its still says my storage is full. whenever i try to backup my phone, it doesnt work. anything i can do?
Go to Settings - General - Usage and see which apps are taking up a lot of space.
In my experience, if you haven't cleaned out your Messages that is where a lot of space is consumed. -
OS is Mountain Lion, upgraded no problems, used an external Hard drive for my time machine, now my iPhoto will not show any of my photo's or ay new ones I import! Help please!!
Do you get this window when you hold down the Command+Option keys and launch iPhoto?
If not then you're not holding down both keys long enough.

I cannot find information to help me change the orientation of a video filmed in portrait format but it can only able to be played back lying on its side (landscape) instead of upright. All the rotation buttons for iPhoto are not 'engaged' when it is in video .
Thanks OT,
I tried the Export function but it would not allow me to choose the option of exporting to iMovie. I think you are right about needing Quicktime Pro. I opened iMovie and imported the clip from iPhoto and with some searching found the 'cropping, rotation' mechanism. So I now have a copy in the correct orientation. I plan to import/export it back to iPhoto because I want to have a copy on my iPhone to show people and I wanted to have it available as part of a slideshow I am making in iPhoto of my recent overseas trip. It is a pain that there is no simple orientating tool for the movie clips downloaded to iPhoto with the photos from the one camera. -
Any way for iPhoto to NOT launch when iPhone connected?
Hey gang-
Is there any way to configure iPhoto to NOT launch every time my iPhone is connected to my iMac? I understand why it does it- because there are photos on my iPhone Camera roll- I get it. But I would love for it to NOT launch iPhoto every time. I know I can use Image Capture to tell iPhoto not to launch for ANY camera, but that's overkill. I just want iPhoto to not launch when my iPhone is connected. Is there maybe an app or a terminal command that could configure that?
Thanks!

Sure. Go to preferences and select do nothing when a camera is attached.
This is the way to do this. As you know, it will not open for any camera.
These are your choices. Sorry.
Thanks- at least I know I wasn't missing something.
Okay- how about this? Is there an app that would enable me to move my photos off my Camera Roll and organize them separately? That might solve the problem of iPhoto seeing them.
Thanks!

I am trying to download a video on my Ipad 2 but it says my storage is full and to delete Photo or videos but i don't have any
Look at the capacity bar of the iPad in iTunes - at the bottom of the screen in the iTunes window while the iPad is connected to sync - and make sure that you do have enough space left on the device. If you do have nought space left - quit iTunes, restart the computer and restart the iPad and try again.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You can also try a reset and see if that helps.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. -
My mail program does not update when I delete emails in my other email programs (i.e. it still shows messages in my mail inbox when I've deleted them). I think this started with Maverick? Any solutions?
one is gmail, one is a university email and they are both IMAP accounts (not that I know what that means)....

When i delete photos, they do not dissapear
I have been deleting photos in iPhoto to create more hard drive space, and they are still showing up as blank photo space instead of completely going away.
Any suggestions on how to delet completely?
thank you!Sounds like your Library is corrupted.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption. -
First i imported my photos to iphoto 8.1.2 when it finished, asked me if i want to "delete them from the camara" i clicked yes and crashed while deleting photos (7,000) from my iphone and the photos disappeared from iphone and iphoto
No early version of iPhoto can open a Library from a later version.
You can try revert the Library with iPhoto Library Manager

Why when I delete photos from iPhoto it deletes them from Flickr?
I find it unbelievably inconvenient. Can you help me to avoid it somehow, please?
I wanted to uploas all my photos to Flickr account and delete most of them from my MacBook, because I need some place for storage... But, I found out that my great plan has failed=(The purpose of this article is to provide steps to delete pictures from iPhoto without changing the synced album in Flickr.
1. Exit iPhoto and login to Flickr
2. Change your Flickr password
Click on Settings - Password: Type a new Flickr password and click "Change Password" - make note of the changed password to avoid banging your head on the table later!
3. Open iPhoto
4. Click on a synced iPhoto/Flickr album
The following message window will appear:
"An error occurred with the publication of album "(NAME OF SYNCED ALBUM."
"Authentication with server failed. Please check your login and password information."
5. Delete the album on iPhoto.
Delete the album, or albums of choice in iPhoto! Since iPhoto cannot sync to Facebook, your Facebook album will stay intact.
6. Change your Password on Flickr
Either change password back to your previous one or keep the new password. This is up to you.
7. Re-sync iPhoto with Flickr
iPhoto will not re-sync even if you change your Flickr password back to the previous password. You will need to re-sync.
The fastest way is to do this is to select one picture from your iPhoto library and click the Flickr icon like you would do to add photos to Facebook.
Choose whom you want the photos viewable by then click on the "Change Accounts" button.
Fill out the appropriate fields with your user email, your current Facebook password, and that picture will now sync with Flickr as a new album. Do whatever you want with this album in iPhoto (delete or keep).
All your current iPhoto albums are now re-synced with Flcikr! The deleted album is gone and will not sync which keeps the Flcikr album completely intact!
This is one workaround - there might be others. Again, until Apple solves this issue, this workaround works quite easily despite the tedious steps.
