Iphotos there but not really???

I have photos in my library that are there. And like usual when you open iphoto, they are along the top. But I cannot open them (if you want to edit or just see them larger). It just shows this swirling icon. Any ideas....your knowledge is appreciated!

This sometimes indicates a file permissions problem: Download BatchMod from
http://macchampion.com/arbysoft/
And apply it to the iPhoto Library Folder using the settings found here:

Contacts there but not really?

I just got an iPhone 4s. This is my first Apple product and I'm learning the ins and outs. I noticed today that my contacts seem to be doing something weird. They are all still there, but it's like they're not. When I text with people, the name I have for them in my contacts list does not show up, their phone number shows up like it's a new number that I don't have in my list. So instead of my wife's name being there with the texts, her cell number is there. I checked the users manual and all pictures of the text screens show a person's name in the banner, not a phone number. Also, when I went to my contact list I saw that all of my phone numbers are not listed as (123) 456 7890 like the users manual shows; they are listed as 1234567890. All of the digits are run together. Does this have something to do with it? Is this different than normal or is this normal for iPhones? Thanks for any help someone can give me.

I don't know of a way to do them all at once. Maybe it's faster on a computer. It's good to get in the habit from now on to enter numbers that way. You can also just change the most common ones right now, and then little by little change the rest.

Podcasts There But Not Really(?)

Hi there. I know the boards are lighting up with complaint about v7, but if someon could find the time to help me, they would be my hero.
Problem: Podcast episodes
ARE showing up in one smart playlist,
NOT the podcast section,
and NOT in the Libray.
Even after I deleted the artist's folder and tried to manually edit the Library.xml. The podcast now tries to sync w/ the iPod, but cannot, because the files have been deleted.
I need the podcasts to disappear from my playlist, because they are not even there.
That's about as clear as I can be, sorry if it isn't.
Thanks you're awesome,
Taylor

Are pocast just not updating with V7
I have made several updates well over 24 hrs ago
and they have yet to show up on the podcast page
but they do show up in my library

I can't load pictures to online site... Iphoto works but not aperture. I have edited photos that i exported to an external drive but they will still not load to Walgreens for printing. Does anyone know what I can do?

Are you shooting RAW? Are you exporting masters or versions? Is there a size limitation on the Walgreens site?

I am having trouble with iMessage being activated. It has worked up until yesterday and now won't activate and is saying no address in the send and receive section. My number is there but not ticked. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

iMessage and FaceTime went down yesterday for some people. Mine is still down. My iMessage is saying the same thing about being activated. Sounds like you are still down too. Ignore the status page that says everything is fine - it lies.

How can I get the iTunes music on my phone on my computer as well? Some of it is there but not everything...

How can I get the iTunes music on my phone on my computer as well? Some of it is there but not everything...

I had the similar problem last night and found a solution (although it takes more than a few clicks). Highlight all the album tracks in itunes on the pc and right click "get info". Check the artwork box in this window. I found that the now playing art was showing up in the itunes window, but on songs that were missing artwork showed nothing in the get info box. When I replaced the artwork by using the artwork command, or manually adding it into the "get info" window. It was annoying but my iphone updated every album.

Firefox 14.0.1 is NO longer showing the Norton SAfe Web icon in seacch results. The toolbar is there but NOT the safe web icon next to the URL in search results

After updating to Firefox 14.0.1 my search results NO longer show the Norton WEB Safe Icon next to each result. It worked fine before the upgrade. The Norton tool bar is there and when you click on the site the safe web report is there but NOT the icon in the search results.

Norton released updates for Firefox 14 early the same morning as the release of Firefox 14. Norton usually releases updates on the same morning as new Firefox versions. Have you updated Norton through their LiveUpdate?

IPhoto 6 - photos there, but not there!

Hi some help would be appreciated:
After some major issues, I had to wipe my HD, reinstall OSX 10.6 and then restore my system from Time Machine.
Things seemed to be ok at first. But now when I open iPhoto 6, although the file names of all my photos, albums and camera rolls are there, the photos themselves are not displayed. Instead, there is a blank square where each photo should be.
The strange thing is when I drag one of these photos onto my deskstop, I can open it and see it normally in other applications.
I've tried the rebuild cache option by pressing control + alt when I open iPhoto, but this did not seem to work.
Any suggestions?
Also, I am thinking about upgrading to iPhoto '11, but this seems to have had some terrible reviews. Have these problems been fixed? Is a new iPhoto '12 planned anytime soon?
many thanks!

Control(right)-click on one of the thumbnails and select Show File from the contextual menu.
If you've edited the photo then select Show Original File.
You should be taken to the folder housing the orignal and that original selected. Do you see the original? If you do see the original file then
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
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
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
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 but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Photos there, but not in Albums?

I recently upgraded an iPhoto Library to iPhoto 08. All of the Albums I created before the upgrade are there, but there are no photos in any of the Albums. Is there a way to remedy this?
I've been using Brian Webster's iPhoto Library Manager to use multiple libraries.
Thanks,
Russell.

Russell:
Go to the View menu and select Event Titles. That will display the events as it did rolls in iPhoto 6.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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 written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), 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 08 libraries. 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.

Songs there but not there??

Hi,
There is one album that I put on iTunes a long time ago that started uploading via iTunes match to the cloud at a time when I needed the bandwidth for something else, and I cancelled the iTunes match process while it was uploading. I thought I would run iTunes match again later so it could finish uploading, but when I went to run iTunes match later it did not start uploading the album again. The result is that there are some songs that are "there" but when you go to play them on any device (except my main computer with the original) it says that the song is not available. The song appears in iCloud, and on my main system it says that it is uploaded to iCloud, but the song recording itself doesn't appear to be, just its information.
I went on a second computer with iTunes with iTunes Match on and went and tried to delete the messed up songs from the cloud. It asked me if I wanted to delete the song from the cloud, I chose Yes and nothing happened. I am able to delete any other songs from the cloud with that second computer, and the delete, but with any of those songs they don't delete. It is like iTunes Match is getting confused because the song info is there but no recording, like it's failing to delete because there's no recording!
It's really annoying when I put my ipod touch on shuffle and it hits one of those songs and then the music stops because it can't play that song and comes up with an error message, and I have to hit OK before it will move onto the next song.
I have also tried to delete the album on my main computer and delete it from iTunes, and readd the aif files into iTunes and Update iTunes Match. It still doesn't reupload any of the songs because it thinks they are already there in iCloud.
Any help would be appreciated.

wait it is set to update manually, I dont see how that could affect me. i dont want it to automatically fill the ipod w/ stuff o dont want. or am i misunderstanding what update manuallt means?

I copied our entire music folder from old PC on tovnew iMac, all our muisc is there, but not our individual libraries have gone. and holding down the alt key when opening iTunes, brings up no options to choose or create libarys, can i recover our liba

Hi
I copied our entire music folder from our old pc on to the new imac, and all the apps, music etc is there, but no individual libarys, we had 5 very different ones, when pressing and holding the alt key on opeing itunes, nothing happens it just opens into itunes, no option to choose or create a libary, what am i doing wrong?

Did you copy the entire iTunes folder, not just media? This includes the critical library.itl file.
Image of folder structure and explanation of different iTunes versions (turingtest2 post) - https://discussions.apple.com/message/13025536 and https://discussions.apple.com/message/17457605
Now you say you had 5 libraries. If you really mean that then you would have to have copied 5 different iTunes folders in their entirety, not just one folder. Anyway, something makes me feel you did not copy a whole iTunes folder and all its subfolders and files, you only copied the music.
On the starting with the option (alt) key held down I really don't know what to advise. It works for me hundreds of times and just about everybody else here. The only thing I can suggest is to hold the key down longer or perhaps start iTunes and then 1 second later hold down the key for a few seconds.

Iphotos there but not really???
