Is there a save option on iPhoto? Sometimes iPhoto does not retain the name on a face I've added to a photo.

Sometimes iPhoto does not retain the name on a face I've added to a photo. I have 'added a face' then flipped to the next picture then back to that picture and the label has disappeared.

No.  It's supposed to be automatic.  You might try repairing the library's database and then see if it still crops up now and then. If that doesn't help try rebuilding it the same way.
Launch iPhoto with the Option+Command keys held down and select the database repair option in the rebild window:
Then the rebuild option if necessary.

  • IPhoto does not retain the names I give photos - please help

    When I rename a photo in iPhoto, it will retain the new name and adjust all children copies (e.g. in albums and on facebook sharing page), but when I close the iPhoto program, the new names are erased. I have used the same proceedure before and not had a problem. Any suggestions?

    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. .

  • I have a MacBook Pro running 10.7.2.  I am trying to import photos from my older Canon EOS-1D for the first time since my OS upgrade.  iPhoto does not see the camera nor does Image Capture.  IC says there is not a camera connected.  Cable is known good.

    If neither iPhoto not IC can seethe card it might suggest an issue with the card or the ports on the camera/mac.
    Try reformat the card, change the ports and/or use a USB Card Reader.

  • There is a problem with the proxy server's security certificate. The name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the target site "Mailserver"

    Good day Guys
    First of all I am not an Exchange Expert, and I might be asking a very stupid question, but please bare with me. :) 
    While I was on leave our Mail server fell over and The company got a Specialist to help out for the time being.
    We where\are on Microsoft Exchange 2007 , which Fell over, and the specialist was able to recover as much data as he could.
    They then installed Exchange 2013 and tried to migrate everything from 2007 to 2013 and not everything migrated over.
    But the problem is, Outlook Anywhere was enable on 2007 and worked a 100% (before the disaster)
    With Exchange 2013 I get the following error message when trying to connect With Outlook 2013, using an external connection:
    "There is a problem with the proxy server's security certificate. The name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the target site "Mailserver"
    Outlook is unable to connect to the Proxy server. (Error Code 0)"
    Has anyone had the Similar when migrating over from 2007 to 2013 or is this an Issue on IIS and nothing to do with Exchange migration?
    Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Firstly, I would suggest we use Exchange 2013 FE as the Outlook Anywhere proxy server.
    For the certificate issue, it mostly occurs because the host name that Outlook are trying to access does not match the certificate SAN. Please check with this point. If they do not match, you
    can change the host name by referring to the following article:

  • Iphoto does not support the resolution of my dslr camera...how do i upload full resolution photos?

    iphoto does not support the resolution of my dslr camera...how do i upload full resolution photos?

    You actually need to give information to get help - just stating an abstract problems (which is most certainly not a problem at all) gives the volunteers hearer nothing to work with to help you
    What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? What exactly is the problem (iPhoto does support the resolution of your camera so that is NOT a problem)? what exactly are you doing? What error messages do you get? why do you incorrectly think that iPhoto does not support full resolution?
    At this time your question is like my car won't start - why not? Could be anything from you did not put the key jun to being out of gas to having the engine stolen - no way to tell anything - except that the problem you claim is not true (at least in my example I would know that the car did not start)

  • IPhoto does not see the camera

    iPhoto does not see the camera, although it worked really well for two years. Computer has been regularly updated. Please help, thank You.

    Image Capture doesn't see the camera. I have tried with two different Sony cameras, that I have been using for a long time on this computer. It is iMac 27''. Both of these cameras work normaly in MacBook Air, that means that the problem is not in the camera, or the cards. Those are the things I have tried so far. Only difference I created on the computer is that I have, two or three days ago, installed external hard drive WD My Book Studio which is connected to the computer by FireWire 800.

  • The new iPhoto does not include the border option on the print feature

    The new iphoto App that I upgraded this morning does not have the option for the borders, different dessings and multiple pictures in the same page on the print option, as my old version of i Photo had, I can not get anyone on apple to help me, they said this is how it is now. It is upsetting not to have a feature that was very good being replace for a very simple one, very dissapointed about this.

    First crop the photo to the size you want printed. Select the photo to be printed and type Command + P.  In the next window you'll see these options:
    Select the print size (not borderless) and the Fit layout.

  • Iphoto does not use the proper display profile

    Hello.
    I just bought a 20' Apple Cinema display and connected it to my Macbook. I have noticed a very strange behavior of iPhoto and Preview.
    I will first describe the expected (right behaviour).
    When I drag an image opened in Adobe LG or Aperture from the Macbook display to the Cinema display (or the opposite) after a very small delay the color of the image adapts to the color profile of the display where it was dragged. Which is the correct the behavior.
    With Preview or iPhoto this adaptation does not happen and the image is displayed with the right profile only on one of the 2 display. Besides being a very annoying issue, the very strange thing is how you can choose on which one of the displays the image gets displayed with the right display color profile:
    - With Preview, the display color profile used (for both displays) is selected based on which is the default display in ColorSync display settings.
    - With iPhoto, the display color profile used (for both displays) is selected based on which display the munu bar is (!!!). That is, if you want to have your image displayed with the right display profile on your cinema display, then you MUST have the menu bar on that display. If the menu bar is on the Macbook display the image on the cinema display will be displayed with the display profile of the Macbook display. Crazy!
    You can try all of the above remembering that after any change you need to quit and reopen iphoto or preview or ColorSync for the settings to apply.
    My question is: why neither iPhoto nor Preview act in the right way like Aperture or Adobe LG? Or at least, why iPhoto does not behave like Preview allowing me to choose where I want the menu bar without having this choice affecting the display color profile used to display my images?
    Thank you,
    Marco

    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), 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.

  • IPhoto does not memorize the export path

    Hi,
    I imported some photos into iPhoto. Now I want to export some of them, one after another into a specific subdirectory.
    The subdirectory I want to export the photos into is like this:
       .../Pictures/Subdir1/Subdir2/Subdir3
    The problem is that every time iPhoto exports a photo it starts in ".../Pictures" and does not memorize the whole path! Between the exports I don't close/quit iPhoto so that it could "forget" the path! I have to go through the subdirectories every time that is a pain!!
    This is something that is usually working perfectly in many applications. The question is whether there is a way to make this strange application (in many aspects) keep track of the subdirectory I am working in?
    Thanks!!

    Thanks for your feedback!
    Well, I don't know what is going wrong with my iPhoto, but I always have the same issue!
    This application is generally a bit messy, like you cannot turn off the face recognition functionality, but that's another problem of me as user...
    So, let's see whether there are any other ideas out there...
    Thank you again!!

  • IPhoto does not recognise the raw files(.NRW) from my new Nikon camera model P7100,any advice please as running latest version of iPhoto(9.2.1)

    Since changing my little everyday camera to a new Nikon Coolpix P7100 iPhoto cannot import any of the raw files(.NRW),says it does not recognise them.
    I have updated iPhoto to the latest version(9.2.1) but still cannot open them.
    Any ideas please

    The raw from the P7100 is not supported at this time.
    The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
    Therefore the Raw for every camera model needs to be added individually. If yours is not supported then let them know you want it:

  • IPhoto does not retain slide show settings

    I'm making a simple slide show using the Ken Burns effect. Some of the transitions work well, but others cut off the tops of heads and titles I imported from another program. I find Title slides very difficult to create in iPhoto but that's another story.
    There doesn't seem to be any way to save or finalize a slide show. Just when I think I've set it the way I want, it takes over and starts cutting off pieces of the images. I have tried cropping within iPhoto, or editing in Photoshop using the "edit in external editor" option. My changes do not get saved so there are ridiculous unprofessional chopped-off slides. I'd like this to look right before I post it at my organization's website and am getting frustrated.

    Success! Thank you so much. I would have replied sooner but I spent the morning going through your advice step by step and every time I gave my slide show a tweak - it worked.
    As I enter this reply I am exporting the slideshow so it can be uploaded.
    In case this should be helpful to another user I'll go through your queries:
    Are you creating the slideshow directly from an album of photos or user the iPhoto Slideshow mode?
    • I am still blundering along figuring out the distinctions between Events and Albums. In this case I imported my slides into the Photos section, in carefully numbered sequence because on my previous import they ended up in a confusing mess. I dragged and dropped the numbered files into the slideshow I was creating.
    Are the cut off photos in the portrait orientation?
    • Mostly, but not always.
    Are you using the Ken Burns theme or applying KB to selected photos?
    • I used KB, even though I knew I was asking for trouble…
    What theme are you using?
    • KB was the theme I picked because it seemed to work best for this set of images. I tried Classic with dissolves but after tweaking using your information, preferred KB and am using it.
    First guess is that you have the optiion to Scale photos to fill screen selected:
    • I was completely ignorant of this feature. Very important!
    If you're using a specific theme some of them do not handle portrait oriented photos well. They do get cut off at top and bottom.
    • I will keep that in mind for future slide shows.
    Also set the aspect ration to TV: 4:3 unless the photos are in the widescreen size ratio: 16:9
    • This may have been the final setting for success.
    Now I can face my boss

  • Sometimes it does not find the HDD

    My MBP is behaving strangely. When it comes back from sleep everything hangs and the HDD (i assume) makes a sound like "click zzzzzzzz, click zzzzzzz, click zzzzzzz". Then after a while the screen goes black.
    When I reboot: grey screen, no Apple logo, just gray screen and that clickzzz-sound. I boot from the installer CD and start Disk Util. No hard drive. I connect my external backup drive (which is a mirror of the internal), boot from it, fire up Disk Utility. No HDD. I shutdown, disconnnect the USB drive, and get ready to bring it to the service partner.
    Just one time I would fire it up again and guess what: everything is back up normal! It boots up, the HDD sounds sane, like nothing happened - not even "recovered files" in the trash.
    It happened today and about 2 weeks ago. I'm a little bit reluctant to bringing it to a service partner since it's the only computer I can use at the moment and need it for work. And chances are good that it works at the service partner and they might not see a reason to fix anything (I can already see me driving back and forth for weeks without a result....).
    The Apple Care guy would not help me either, he just said I should bring it to a service partner. So I'm curious. Are those early signs of a dying hard drive? Or is it just some kind of hiccup when waking from sleep?
    Thanks for your opinions

    - "click zzzzzzzz, click zzzzzzz, click zzzzzzz"
    - fire up Disk Utility. No HDD
    Are those early signs of a dying hard drive?
    It's definitely not normal behavior. The HDD could be dying, or there could be data corruption. Either way... not good.
    I strongly recommend that you back up any important files as soon as humanly possible.
    Get anything you need off that drive... and send the computer in for service.

  • Mouse wheel stops scrolling page, and sometimes refresh does not refresh the correct tab, but the first one in the window.

    I have 27 firefox windows open with a grand total of 141 tabs.
    Some times the input is directed to the wrong window. I will click refresh and it will refresh the first tab in a window, but not the tab I am on. Apparently this also happens when I try and use the mouse wheel or the up and down arrow to scroll a page.
    Some times it works correctly on 1 window, but when I switch to another scrolling stops working.
    Usually rebooting the computer helps, but I should not have to do that.

  • HT2480 When I type a text message the name it puts as "to" does not match the name that I have on my contact. i.e. shows John and Jane Doe when contact just has Jane Doe. Is there some old data that should be cleared? Can I stop the auto selection?

    See question above

    Do you have Facebook contacts turned on? It may be at some time you got an email message from them and that is the way they have their return address set. All previously used addresses are in a cache on the phone and the only way to clear that is to restore the phone as a new device, which deletes all data from the phone. You cannot restore from a backup because the information is in that and will just be put back on the phone.
