Iphoto won't open/accept images from USB drive
Hello. I copied a bunch of photos from another mac onto a USB drive. Then I put them on my desktop. They are all jgp files (IMG_033.jpg, for example) , but I can't open any of them. I can't open them from the desktop, I can't drag them into iphoto, and I can't do it by importing from iphoto. I also tried renaming the files and using preview (based on what someone said in another posting) and that doesn't work either. I get messages that say "Unreadable file cannot be imported" (when I try via iphoto) or "original item can't be found" (when I try from desktop or preview).
Help?

original item can't be found" (when I try from desktop or preview).
Sounds like you didn't copy the files to the usb device, but instead made aliases to them.
Do the icons have a little arrow on them? What size are the files?
Regards

Iphoto won't open after changing from os10.5 to os10.4
hello there
last night i reinstalled os10.4. i have been running leopard, but a program that i want to use is not yet compatible with it.
after installing it, it put all of my documents/files in a folder called 'previous system' on my hard drive. i then moved all the files back to their 'proper' folders (i.e. itunes, documents etc)
i moved the iphoto library and put it in my 'pictures' folder, but for some reason now iphoto won't open..it just bounces once in the dock and then nothing happens....
can anyone help? i've got some really precious photos in my library, and i'd be really gutted if i have lost them...
thanksi'm using 7.1.1

iPhoto won't open. Little circle/wheel icon just keeps spinning. Reinstalled from iLife disk, and still no luck. Any suggestions?
What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager 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. .

My cs4 won't open raw image from my Canon 5D II. What is the solution?
My CS4 opens raw images from my 40D with no problem. However, when I try to open raw images from my new 5D II, it says it is "not the right kind of document". Why is this? Aren't all RAW images the same? What is the difference between the RAW image in my 40D, and my 5D II? Is there a solution to this?
Please repost this in the Photoshop forum. This forum is for suite specific issues only.

CS6 won't open all images from Windows Explorer
Hi!
Today a colleague of mine encountered a strange behaviour with Photoshop CS6 64bit on a Win7-PC (also 64bit), which I could reproduce on a second machine.
Highlighting severeal jpg-images in a folder and hitting the Enter-key opens
all images in Photoshop, when Photoshop wasn't running
only some images (1 - 4 images out of 5) randomly, when Photoshop was already running
The same effect happens when I use the "Open with..."-command from Windows Explorer on the images.
Does anyone know this issue?
Regards
DieterNormal behavior. Windows only allows a given number of files to be handed over via DDE and that's what happens when a process is already active. When you do this with no program open, it simply blindly fires a standard command with only one file as an argument, but does so for every single file. That's why it works then. Nothing you can change. It's a limitation in Windows itself combined with the fact that only one PS process can be active....

Iphoto won't open raw files from leica dlux-6 camera.
I just purchased a leica d-lux 6 camera and use a macbook. seems that iphoto which I've been using for years can not open raw files from this camera. Will it ever? I downlaoded the free lightroom Leica gave and it can open raw but it seems to require more of a learning curve than iphoto. If I continue to use both lightroom and iphoto on same mac computer cause problems? Any suggestions? I guess i could shoot in jpeg and raw and use only iphoto for jpegs and use LR for the occasional raw shots?
Correct, the D-Lux 6 is not currently supported for Raw in iPhoto or Aperture. Apple may add support in a future update. Let them know you want it:
iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback
LR is a very powerful, professional grade application and yes, requires a lot more learning than iPhoto. If that doesn't interest you, then respectfully, I would suggest that you just shoot Jpeg.

IPhoto won't open and images have disappeared
Hi,
I'm at a complete loss on where to start with my problem. This week I bought an external hard drive and set up Time Machine to back up my files because I had not done this and didn't want to lose anything important.
Today I tried to open iPhoto and I get a message asking me 'What library do you want iPhoto to use?' but there are no libraries to choose from
I've looked for my original images and can't find a single one. It appears that I have lost every photo I ever uploaded onto my Mac and when I look in Time Machine and on my hard drive the pictures folder is empty. I'm now getting messages that I don't have the permission to view the contents of folders, even though I am the administrator for my computer.
Being new to Time Machine I don't know if i went wrong somewhere, but i thought the whole point was that it's easy and backs up your files. I'm now wishing I hadn't bothered as I have lost the first year of daughter's life in photos. Gutted doesn't even start to cover it.
Can anyone help? I don't really know what to do or where to begin as I'm not all that techical.
Thanks for reading.Thanks for the tip. I did a fair bit of research and used Data Rescue 3 in the end. It's done a pretty good job of reconstructing files as far as i can tell (around 90gb worth) - i could preview the Jpegs and while some were corrupted there were a lot that werent. However I cannot preview the RAW files through Data Rescue. my question now is this: is it safe to boot up my iMac and view them on there (the recovered files are on an external hard drive) or could this risk any overwriting of the existing data on the internal hard drive? Or should I check them on another computer ? If so, is it safe to plug the HD into a pc to view and will that work?
I don't want to do anything to risk these precious files until I have them backed up... And is there a way to safely copy them to another hard drive without using my iMac?
I hope I'm making sense... -
Iphoto won't open the pix from iphone camera role
i've rebooted the phone and all that shows in iphoto when it's mounted the iphone is the white dotted thumbnail frames, but no pix and when trying to still import, says cannot import the numbe rof pix there...not sure how to fix this..this happened once before with an ipod from years ago, and someone gave me a fix, and i wonder if something similar would work...except if it would, i still don't remember it... any help would be appreciated...
I have the same issue after upgrading to iOS4 my iPhone 3GS. It transfers pictures though, I just cannot see thumbnails, not a worst thing in the world by irritating nevertheless. If you will remember that trick you were told - post it here

My iPhoto won't open after reverting from mavericks to mountain lion! HELP!!
I recently upgraded to mavericks & quickly discovered that protools was not compatible with the new OS.. so i called apple & they suggested i back up my files & completely restore my computer so I could return to mountain lion..afterward i realized my ilife was no longer in my applications & had use the applications cd that came with my computer to upload ilife. now when i go to use iphoto it says " You can’t open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto." & forces me to quit. I dont see any ipdates for iphoto & at this point dont know what to do!! please help!
Older version of iPhoto cannot open libraries that have been created or opened with later versions.
You can downgrade the library to 9.4.3 by following this iPLM tutorial: Fat Cat Software - iPhoto Library Manager Help - Downgrading a library to an earlier version of iPhoto

Iphoto won't open certain pics
iphoto won't open certain pics from the thumbnail (which still exists)... A circle with an exclamation point comes up instead of the image.
The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager 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.

Preview won't open JPG image on a USB stick.
Preview won't open 'JPG' images downloaded from a USB stick. I get this message, "The image"IMG_0091.JPG" could not be opened" It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise.
I can see the thumbnail, but they won't open. Can I change this in some way? And, no, I can't download them again as I have erased them from the memory card, but they are saved in iphoto.You can try deleting the .plist. Quit Preview first.

How can I back up the iPhoto library when iPhoto won't open and I can't simply copy the iPhoto library packet because "some of the data canny be read from or written to"?
Regarding not being able to open iPhoto. As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Were you able to create a new library?
If so then your current library is damaged and needs to be repaired.
Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start

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, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ 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.

I run Tiger OSX on one MacBook and SnowLeopard on another. Photos were downloaded from Tiger to SnowLeopard, and now iPhoto won't open on the Tiger Mac. Will upgrading iPhoto fix this problem?
What matters is the version of iPhoto you have on the different machines. Can you tell us what they are, and what exact error message you get.
