IPhoto streaming and Events

I have iPhoto streaming to my Apple TV. Problem is, I can not see all the events. WC sez that you should be able to see all the events. I give. Any ideas.
Thanks, Steve H

Yes sir. I was not very bright when I bought my Apple TV. I got the 40 gig size. If I synch both the music and the photos it is bout 25 gig in total. That would leave only about 14 gig available for downloading movies (we only rent). Based upon my Macs, I did not think that would be enough room left on the hard disk to keep the Apple TV happy. Am I wrong? I thought that 15% free space before downloading any movies might be pushing it a bit.

Under the iCloud photo library beta (in settings > iCloud) it says that the following will happen if have it turned on
'automatically upload and store you entire library in iCloud to access photos and videos from all your devices...'
So why does it not do what it says it will do....?
iCloud Photo Library (Beta) is currently only available for your mobile devices with iOS 8. "store you entire library in iCloud " is referring to the "Photos" library on iPhone or iPad, not to the iPhoto Library on a Mac. On your Mac you can only access this library from the iCloud web interface.
Or will they be in the cloud in the spring.
Early next year a Photos.app for MacOS Yosemite will be released. Photos on the Mac will be able to access iCloud Photo Library (no longer Beta), and Apple announced, that you will be able to migrate your iPhoto Library to "Photos".
To see your iCloud Photo Library (Beta) use the Photos.app on the iCloud webpage.

Photos - my photos are duplicated in Albums, Photo Stream and Events. Does this take additional memory?

I need instruction and not understanding Photos. When I put photos from my Canon Camera through the Apple Connector - SD Card Reader, the photos are displayed in the Photo App. They are duplicated in many areas: Photos, PhotoStream, Albums, and Events. Is this the way Apple does this? Can I just have photos in one place in the app? BTW: my PhotoStream setting is on on the iPAD4 and on my iPHONE 5. Should I turn off? If they are duplicated in all areas, are they taken up space on my iPAD?Please advise.
Also, can I delete multiple photos on my iPAD4 without selecting each one? I don't seem to see a Select All option. Also, I am not sure when I see this dialogue box on the iPAD4, but it seems I only get Delete Everywhere instead of just Delete. Why? Is there a setting I need to know about.
When I connect my iPAD4 through the hardwire to my PC, can I just create a folder and copy my photos on my iPAD4 to my PC. They will not remove them from the iPAD4, correct?

Basically within the photo app, there are sever views available, each having a different purpose, but only one file per image (at least I'm fairly certain that's how it works). Start off with the Photos section of the user guide (link below). It may not answer all of your questions, but will give you a good starting place.

Iphoto emailing and "events" issue

I am not sure if these issues are related. 2 weeks ago I began having and issue where 3 of my events had no key image. It also said there were 0 photos in the event. If you clicked on the event, you could still see there were photos in there. I did a little research and discovered that I may have caused this when I emptied iPhotos trash recently. I didn't know this had to be done and there were several thousand photos in there. Since then I have also updated to Yosemite. I have now noticed that I cannot email photos from iPhoto anymore. I can go through all the steps but after I hit send, the wait bar goes to the end and nothing happens. I let it sit overnight once and it was still waiting. I assume these issues are related to either me emptying the trash or updating to Yosemite. Anyone have any ideas how fix this? I am using OSX 10.10.2 and iPhoto 9.6.

Go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete the email account that's there. Then add it back and try to email again.
A better solution, IMO, is to set Mail as iPhoto's email client in iPhoto's General preference pane. That allows you better access to Contacts, a sent copy created automatically and also has templates in the stationary section similar to iPhoto's. Mail is also more reliable.

IPhoto albums and events and thousands of photos not showing on iOS devices

I have 10,000 photos in iPhoto, and several albums.
I have noticed that for the last few weeks on my iPhone 6 plus the only albums that show are
Photos.... Years 2004, 2005 and 2014
Shared (nothing)
Albums All Photos (only 163 photos) Videos and Deleted
There is no photo stream or anything else. All there is is listed above.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Iphoto 08 and events

Installed ilife08 the other day and love the new events feature in iphoto. However, once I went to Apple TV there are no events. Is there something I need to do to have events show up on Apple TV or does this feature not yet work with Apple TV?

I've spent the last couple of days reorganising my events after iphoto had created them from my existing library, I understand why iphoto has created the events the way it has done and although from now on new imports will be dealt with in an entirely intuitive way, reorganising old photo events will likely be a necessity for all of us.
I don't believe events are intended to replace albums although I do agree that events are potentially far more flexible than albums and many may get more benefit from using events instead of albums from now on as you suggest.
However events essentially replace the library (not albums) and make the long list of every photo you have into something entirelty maneagable. The reason why events would not be a suitable entity to sync to the tv is that events contain every photo you have and each photo can only be included in a single event, wheras albums contain exactly what you choose.
It's true that many events may contain exactly what is wanted as a slideshow on the tv, but with albums as the source for the tv all you need to do is highlight every photo in that event and create an album, however if events were to replace albums as the source for the tv, how would you fulfill the requirement of having the same photo in two different albums/event.
In actual fact the reason the tv still only syncs with albums is that it would require an upgrade for itunes to enable the syncing of events. The possibility that this may happen still exists but all I am saying is that it's not a case of me not grasping the isea of events but rather that you haven't thought through the consequences of making events rather than albums the sync source for the tv because in my opinion it wouldn't work.

Photo Stream and MobileMe in iPhoto: I don't get it!

Hi
Photo Stream is on for iPhoto on my iMac, iPhone 4, iPad and iPod Touch.
I'm somewhat confused about how to handle this feature - aside from the basic understanding that it syncs photos I take, say, on my iPhone, to all other devices without the need to manually sync.
Could someone please confirm / suggest answers to the following;
1) photos I take on my iPhone are shown in my camera roll and under a separate photo stream roll. I understand that photo stream on iOS devices holds the last 1000 images taken (unless you delete some following iOS 5.1). Correct?
2) my iPhoto library on my iMac stores 100% of the photo stream photos thereby negating the need to manually sync my iPhone (which I use to take photos) with iMac. Correct again?
3) Under 'Events' on iPhoto (iMac) it seems to create a new 'event' every month (and christens it, say, as 'March 2012 photo stream' for example) which holds that months images taken.
a) the folders appear in the top left hand corner of the 'Events' page which I don't like as all other events are shown in chronological order (i.e. the latest 'event' being in the bottom right corner of the page). Can I do anything about this, as in set it so that the photo stream folders create themselves at the bottom of the screen after the previous last event?
b) These monthly 'events' are just that; events that have happened within that last month which could comprise of several different events. I categorise by actual event rather than everything that has happened within a particular time frame. This therefore immediately conflicts with photo stream. I presume I am perhaps meant to select certain 'events' within the month's photo stream and then create a new 'event' from that but I don't know how to do this? Could anyone advise how / what they do?
4) I had a MobileMe account which expired last year. Instead of resurrecting the email address for my iCloud account I chose a slightly different one. This seems to pose a problem as under 'Albums' I have several MobileMe albums which generate a pop-up box asking me to log in. As my MobileMe account is expired, the password prompt is not accepted. I therefore can't share my photos as I previously did. Is there a work-around?
Thanks!

1. Yes.
2. Yes.
3. a: View Menu -> Sort Events
3. b Flag the photos you want to move and go Events -> Create Event from Flagged Photos

I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

And I cant work out why all of my pictures are not diplaying in iphoto?
Is this iPhoto on your Mac? Are you referring to the photos that were in your iPhoto LIbrary prior to the upgrade to iPhoto 11? If so then apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If that's not what you're referring to then you should describe what is happening in more detail. Remember we can't see your Mac or your iPhone so need detailed and accurate descriptions of what you're experiencing.
Also we need infomartion like do you have an iCloud account and are you logged into it on all of your devices, iPhoto and Mac? do you have Photo Stream enabled on both.

Missing all photos and events after upgrading to Photos from iPhoto

I just upgraded to photos from iPhoto.
When I opened Photos for the first time it asked if I wanted to move / import from iPhoto to the new photos app I said yes.
A message came up that said that I needed to repair the permissions on my iPhoto library I said ok.
When the library opened in Photos there was nothing there. It was as if the library was brand new with instructions on how to add images and events. I went to iPhoto to open the library. Same thing iPhoto now looks like new with information on how to import photos and create events!
Where are all of my images?
How do I get them back?
Thanks!

HA! User Error. Supper embarrassing. So... Is there a way to delete this request?

Creating a "Favorites" Event in iPhoto '08 and transferring to my iTouch

I really like the EVENTS organization in iPhoto '08, but would like to create an event that just has photos I really like -- to be able to show my family and key events in one event to friends via my iTouch!
OK so what I've done so far is to go to each event (about 48 with total 7000 photos, 27 gb or so) and duplicate that phote (cmd-D) then take the duplicated photo and drag it to a new event entiteled "Favorites". To do this I have to right-click the event and say "open in a separate window" then find the photo I duplicated and drag it to the new event FAVORITES. (I could drag the original, but then it would no longer be in the event of origin).
Is there another way? Would creating a new ALBUM be a way?
Thanks for any comments,
Steve Schulte

Steve:
I second Larry's choice of using an album. You can create a smart album which the criteria that Rating is 5 stars. Then any photo you give a 5 start rating will automatically show up in that album. No duplicating files, no moving files, etc. Really simple.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Tried to reinstall iPhoto library from external hard drive, it shows that the photos and events are there but there are no thumbnails and if you click on an image or video nothing comes up.

My hard drive crashed recently and we took it to apple to get repaired. The apple employees said that they would have to replace the hard drive but they didn't have the equipment to get the data off my hard drive. So I took it to a computer store who had the right equipment after a month and a half of waiting they finally got all the data off my hard drive and put it on an external hard drive (Seagate Expansion Portable Drive). I then took it back to apple who replaced the hard drive. Now I'm in the process of reinstalling everything. I have never done a Time Machine back up or backed my laptop up to . Which I now will do very often once I've reinstalled everything. I have reinstalled all of my desktop images and folders as well as my iTunes library with no issues. However when i went to reinstall my iPhoto library it came up blank. I then Rebuilt the library several times and this was the result.
It shows that the photos and events are there but there are no thumbnails and if you click on an image or video nothing comes up.
Please help i have three years worth of images from holidays on here and would be devastated if i lost them.

iPhoto cannot find the thumbnails or the original pictures.
Go to your iPhoto Library in the Pictures Folder.
Right-click on it and from the resulting menu, choose 'Show Package Contents'.
This will bring you inside the iPhoto Library package. There you should see a Folder called Masters. Within that, there should be folder containing your actual photos.
Are they there?

I have iPhoto 08 and have been happy with it. Don't want to upgrade. But suddenly, when I click on an event, instead of all the photos, I just get one- enlarged- and cannot move to the next one. The photo just jumps up or down. How to solve?

I have posted "submit" twice and keep getting requests to submit again. Now being asked to write a summary! Here we go. I have iPhoto 08 and am happy with it. Don't want to upgrade. But suddenly when I click on an event, instead of getting all the photos, I just get a large version of one photo and cannot move on to the others. The right arrow will not move it and the photo just jumps around.

Note the slider bottom right of the iPhoto Window. Drag it left.

I am having major trouble trying to get photos into IPhoto. On my old macbook, I just had to hit the IPhoto button - I have hundreds of photos and events but now I have this MacPro when I hit the Iphoto button the photos just "disappear" into a document file on the dock and the photos are all contained in some kind of arcs....I'm not computer literate and spent 2 years in one on one just learning IPhoto Could some one out there please help me.?

What version of iPhoto are you using? Where are the photos coming from that go into the document on the Dock? What iPhoto button are you referring to?

Can't select photo stream and Facebook in iphoto

I don't know why, on the side of iPhoto where we can select the library, we got a section call WEB, where we got our Photo Stream and Facebook account.
I don't know why but I can't select those two facebook account and Photo Stream to see and manage the photos that are in those section. I click on it and nothing happen.
But I can share with the share button at the bottom to those sections
Can someone can tell me why I can't select those sections?
I got iPhoto 9.4 and Mountain Lion 10.8.2

Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
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.
Click to view full size
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 Home/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.
