Iphoto tells me there are new photos but there aren't

Is anyone else having this issue from iphoto?
It's driving me nuts -- I hate notifications at the bottom of the screen that I can't get rid of. This morning it said that each of my streams had new photos (none of them did). Flipping through the small album got rid of that notification, but it didn't work for another.
I have tried searching for updates and restarting the computer.
Does anyone know a way to clear notifications or fix this bug?
Thanks!!

Thank you Terence! In this case -- nothing is new. (One album in particular has 2 photos, so I am very certain this is the case)

Photos icon showing 1 new photo but nothing there!

The new 'Photos' icon shows a new photo but nothing new is there. Is this just a glitch with the 2015 app or should the desktop icon be showing a '1' with the Photos icon?

I am having the same problem mentioned here. I see there is no response to your posting. Have you figured out what is going on yet?
I looked through all my account settings and my email rules. I found a rule that may have been the cause of some of the problem but not all of it. This morning "Mail" indicated it was downloading 17 messages from my POP account but only 4 were in my inbox. The missing 13 are gone for good (into the bit bucket I guess). I know that I am not getting mail from a specific correspondent whose email address is in my address book. I'm at a loss.

Mac Book Pro Version 9.1 - can't close IPhoto, can't import selected new photos

Mac Book Pro Version 9.1 - can't close IPhoto, can't import selected new photos.

Any more ideas? My Mac BookPro won't download all new photos - just a few.
There are many photos it won't recognize.
I need upgrades - my computer won't continue upgrading.

IPhoto does not add all new photos to the photostream???

iPhoto is not adding all new photos from one group, recently imported, to the photostream. Why? The photostream has space. The photos were all taken the same day, but only a small number of them from one import show up. Any idea why?

I have already got my refund for the cable! I tried a friends cable and everything works!

IPhoto 5 album names are present; photos are missing

One month ago I installed Mac OS X (10.5.4) on my iBook G4 to resolve issues with my browser and hotmail. Today after having loaded new photos into iPhotos within the last month, I entered iPhotos and found the last two years of photos missing. The album names are there but no photos appear to the right when I click on the album name for photos imported from March 2006 to present. In fact the right side picture viewing area is grayed out as are the photo manipulation icons on the bottom of the screen. I had no iPhotos problems since purchasing my iBook G4 in February 2005 until now shortly after the OS upgrade. Any suggestions?
I have viewed other similar posts but those circumstances are slightly different from mine.

The database becomes corrupted from two principle causes:
1. The app is interrupted in the act of writing to the database - by a crash or force quit for instance
2. User activity in the iPhoto Library Folder - moving or renaming things.
If iPhoto Library Manager is not fully rebuilding then it suggests that your main db is so corrupted that it's not writing out to the Albumdata.xml file correctly. The only solution to that is to restore from a back up or start over new.
What version of iPhoto are you using? This is the iPhoto 08 forum, the original poster is referring to v5 and the instructions for starting over are different.

I need some help transferring all iPhoto libraries over to the new photos app

I need to transfer iPhoto libraries to photos app on osx Yosemite?

HI,
Maybe try it this way this is what I did with mine because I did not migrate and didn't know about that either.
Photos application for Mac Instructions that might help!
On your iPad,iPhone keep the iCloud on in settings for Photos.
if you have not opened the New Photos application yet to have it transfer your photos from iPhoto let it Transfer the Pictures.
once you have all the pictures from iPhoto to Photos then in Photos go to Preferences
there is general and iCloud tab and go to the iCloud and only uncheck the iCloud button that will make it so it doesn't sync with your iPhone and iPad for Photos.
Then in Photos go up to View and press show sidebar because with that view you can move your pictures easier to albums snd delete or move any pictures or make new albums
For Duplicates if you have a big pile in a row and I mean not like every other picture of the same pictures on the keyboard Hold down the shift button. or the other way is to Hold down the Command buttom that is right by the space bar then on the trackpad or mouse click once on the picture you want to delete and do a bunch at a time then on the last picture of that pile either right click the picture and delete or go up to the edit button which is next to file on the top left and click delete in edit.
when you are all done with moving around your pictures or whatever go back to Preferences and turn on iCloud and make sure you have the optimize Mac Storage and then you are done! I hope this makes sense and works for you! here are the 2 pictures I'm talking about in settings.

AppIcon saying there are new emails, but really there are none.

After logging into icloud.com, you get the screen with the 7 applications on. Normally the Mail icon would have no AppIcon on it if there are no new emails, for some reason for the past few weeks this has been stuck on 9 new emails - has anyone had this problem and manage to resolve it, or is it an issue that lies with the website and Apple?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I have the same situation (there seems to be lots of emails sent through my Icloud account. I don't see those emails in my "sent" folder, but I can see plenty of email (Chinese spam emails) bounced back into my account stating that I have exceded the sending limits. I cannot send anything either from my account (of course, the sending limit is alwasy exceeded). I have also changed twice my password, but the issue remains.
Any clues?
I am really surprised at this. I was from the begining with .Mac, and never had any issue during all these years. This is now with Icloud, which should be safer and better :-(

There's a system component that 's missing that Photos is trying to use. You'll need to boot into the Recovery volume (boot with the Command + R keys held down) and reinstall the system.

HT201302 On iPhoto, the section where my "new photos" should pop up has said "loading..." for 20 minutes.

I am not sure how to load my photos on my computer from my iphone since the page has been so-called "loading" for 20 minutes.

You could try quitting (or foce quitting if necessary) iPhoto, then using Image Capture (in your Applications folder) to import them.

In photoshop 13, why are my photos butting up next to each other with no space to show info or version set button.

My imported photos have no space between them in the organizer. It won't show info or the version set expand button. This is in the photoshop elements 13

Switch to classic view using CTRL & D or going to the View menu and checking Details.

I am trying to add movies from my Panasonic lumix to I photo but they aren't showing up. If I try to import into Imovie they also don't show up on the sd card as importable movies. I am using I photo 9.2 on 10.6.8 and never had a problem before.

My camera can be set to record as motion JPEG or light AVCHD. It was set for AVCHD. Could that be affecting it? If so, can you think of any way I can load these. I am trying to add them to an IMovie I started from a different source.

I had this problem.
The answer is to close iphoto (you might have to force quit iphoto if it starts automatically when you connect the camera or insert the SD card) and open imovie.
Imovie then presents an import page which easily imports the video into imovie.
It is a real bad idea to "force Quit" iPhoto - if it has any update activity going on that you interrupt you can corrupt your library an close data or even photos - Force quit should ONLY be used in an emergency where there is no other alternative and you are positive that nothing is going on in iPhoto

Installed itunes on a new computer but songs aren't in library - help?

I have a new computer and downloaded itunes and authorized it but now I have no songs in my library. What else do I need to do to get the songs to transfer?
Thanks.

You need to move the files manually, or transfer them via an iPod or similar Apple device, or follow these instructions.

Somehow I have lost all the photos in my iPhoto - I downloaded some new photos and they went into a slideshow package - and I now can't find my 5000 photos. Hoping it's a simple explanation!

After downloading a new batch of photos, all my iPhoto pictures have disappeared - I have tried to recover them - assume they are in my machine somewhere but how do I get them back? iPhoto is working with all new photos but the old ones have disappeared. Also my screensaver using a picture from my library changed overnight to an apple photo.

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
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.

What does caution sign mean in iPhoto? I can open and view some of my photos, but some I can't. How do you solve this problem?

I accidentally created an Event with flagged photos. I didn't really want to do that, but couln't "undo" it. I used Time Machine to restore iphoto, going to the day before the incident happened. I tried holding down the option key and reboot iphoto. I tried to restore using Time Machine again. I used Disk Utilities to repair permissions. I tried to rebuild thumbnails. None of this worked. Does anyone have a solution to this? I upgraded to Mavericks when it first came out and things seemed to be fine since then until this happened. Not sure if this is a Mavericks issue or something I did.

Just to give you a few more details- I saw a previous post from you responding to someone else about a similar Issue-
- What version of iPhoto.
9.5.1
- What version of the Operating System.
Mavericks
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
I was trying to edit photos- so double clicking on a thumbnail to make it larger so I could edit it and the gray caution sign appeared.
- History: Is this going on long?
2 weeks
Has anything been installed or deleted?
Turbo Tax installed from the internet. Nothing deleted that i know of.
- Are there error messages?
Error message -54 if I'm using the right error going quickly from one thumbnail to the next.
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Just mentioned this in my previous reply a few minutes ago.
- Anything unusual about your set up?
I don't think so.
Or how you use iPhoto?
Just have 4 cameras that I use to export from the camera to iphoto- none of them are new cameras so that hasn't changed. I don't think there is anything I'm doing that is unusual- just your basic editing, etc.

Importing new Photo events from iPad to iPhoto '11

Hi,
I've recently bought the iPad Camera Connection Kit and I used it to import some photos from my camera: this process ended up creating a new event named with the date of the import (I haven't found a way to rename it so far) and an album called "Last import".
I thought that the new event would have been transferred to iPhoto '11 during the next sync with my MacBook. However I found out that's not so: I tried syncing my iPad both via wifi and USB, but the new event doesn't show up in iPhoto '11.
What should I do? Even clicking on "iPad", in iPhoto '11, it shows me only the photos that are in the camera roll...

thank you very much for helping me!
I eventually found out the solution to my problem: however I think it's really non-userfriendly and complicated.
I'll explain everything so that it can be useful for others who are in the same situation as me: I eventually found out that in iPhoto (on the Mac) you see all the photos in your iPad Camera Roll plus all the photos you've imported via the Camera Connection Kit (but they are all mixed up, not divided into albums/folders/whatever...). So if you want to import to iPhoto on your Mac the new photos that are on the iPad you have to manually select them in iPhoto an click on "Import selected...". Then you can rename the event and do whatever you want.
But that's nat all: when you re-sync your iPad iTunes "detects" a new event in iPhoto so it is automatically transferred into the iPad......so you end up by having (on the iPad) two events that contain the same identical photos: the one created automatically when the photos where imported through the Kit and another one imported during the sync process. In order to delete the first one you have to go to Albums and tap on "Last Import", than you have to manually select all the photos and finally delete them: in this way the event "magically" disappears.
I don't know if I've been clear enough but, as the whole process i so complicated, I think there's no other way to explain it.
However I'm very disappointed and in my opinion this is a really frustrating thing that Apple should fix asap!!

Iphoto tells me there are new photos but there aren't
