LR3 Flickr upload problem

Keep getting "Connection Broken" when I try to upload.
I followed the instructions to allow LR3 to interact with Flickr.
When I select a group of photo's to be uploaded, a box opens that asks for my Password.
Interestingly there is a box also for User Name but it is not requested?
When I then press Upload, it appears to start but then gives me the message above.
I am using the 30 Day Trial. Could that be it? Is upload disabled in the Trial?
Regards,
Bill

I migrated from the LR 3 beta to the 30 day trial and have a flickr pro account with no issues with connection or publishing other than some minor LR Bugs of photo's occassionally getting "stuck" (see http://forums.adobe.com/message/2910399#2910399 in case interested when you get it working).
You mentioned an "Upload" button or menu... "When I then press Upload". I've not seen that on my LR it is normally labeled "Publish" for me, just checking. If you edit your connection settings does it show "Logged in as ..." with the "Log in" button disabled or "Not logged in"?
If not logged in have you tried it again by pressing the button?
Beyond that I've no ideas, but at least you should know that it is not a tial problem

Flickr Upload problem

Hi,
I am using a Iomega Home Media Network Drive. I am trying to use the Flickr upload using the Active folders option. After I click the big Flickr button to Sign In, flickr website says the following error,
Oops! Flickr can't find a valid callback URL.
This is the URL which is called by NAS,
https://www.flickr.com/services/auth/?api_key=e5ce274e2be7304ce39bb872b9a6b8f0&perms=write&frob=&api...

I have tried on the following web browsers,
Firefox 30.0 on Mac OSX Mavericks
Safari 7.0.5 on Mac OSX Mavericks
Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7
Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 8
It is not working on any of the browsers.
My Home Media Network Hardrive software is up to date. It is on 2.104.
It still saying the error,
Oops! Flickr can't find a valid callback URL.

Facebook & Flickr Export Problems

One of the new features of Aperture 3 I was excited about was the Facebook & Flickr integration. I had previously been using a free Flickr plug-in and exporting my Aperture images to iPhoto to make use of the Facebook integration.
After preparing a project with 26 adjusted/edited "keeper" images, I tried the Flickr upload button. It worked away and after a few minutes said that the process had completed. When I checked Flickr, only a portion (18 out of 26) of the images were displayed. I then clicked the "Publish" icon beside the album in Aperture, and instead of trying to re-add the missing photos to Flickr, it synced the album to Flickr and gave the Flickr images preference, thereby deleting the images that were not loaded on the initial upload. I have tried this several times and get various behaviours including a case where I got duplicate images in the Flickr set.
I tried the same thing with Facebook and had very similar problems. It does not load all of the selected images onto Facebook and a second sync then deletes the non-uploaded ones from Aperture. On another try, it loaded most (23 out of 26) of the images to Facebook, but instead of showing the images, just had empty "image not found" symbols.
Is anyone else having problems with Facebook and Flickr integration in Aperture 3?

I'll second the "stacks" issue...
I had the same issue as the OP, but once I removed stacks from the event that I was uploading from, all of my images made it into Facebook.....
HOWEVER.....a new issue turned up....for whatever reason, now my people/face tags don't make it into Facebook, even though it worked before removing the stacks. To make matters worse, if I manually tag the images in Facebook and re-synchronize A3, the people/face tags are removed on the Facebook size....I can't f-ing win.
So it looks like I have to select from the lesser of two evils:
1. If I want to preserve face-tagging, I have to be prepared for A3 to omit certain images
2. If I want all of my images to be exported to Facebook, I have to live with no face/people tags
....fanfuckingtastic.

Tags/Captions and Flickr Upload w/ PSE4

Not sure if this is a PSE problem or a Flickr problem, figured I'd ask here first to see if anyone else uploads to Flickr.
I caption and tag my pictures in PSE, then do a "write tags to file". When I upload those pictures to Flickr (using the Flickr Uploader), maybe 95% do not have a caption, and 5% does. The difference with that 5% is that those are pictures I've edited within PSE multiple times. It seems like either my PSE captions aren't getting saved with the rest of the pictures, or Flickr isn't pulling them.
Anyone have any experiences either way or ideas? Please tell me there's a way to fix this.

Initially I imagine it not being integrated directly into PSE. In other words it wouldn't be a drop down in the share button toolbar. I've done a little bit of research and poked around in the data files and haven't found a way that I could integrate it just yet but I'm still looking. This would definitely be cool to do.
When you say, "ability to chose to send tags and captions with the pictures without having to write tags to the original file," I assume you mean not writing to the meta data of the image? Here's a quick step-by-step overview of how I imagine the app working that should hopefully clarify this point as well as make it more clear how I imagine the app running.
Let me preface the description by saying I would try and write the application in such a way where it could easily be expanded to support other photo sharing services and possibly other photo cataloging apps (though this is much less of a priority).
1.) Start PSESync (this was just an initial name idea. If anybody has any name suggestions I would love to hear them).
2.) Choose a catalog to work with (file dialog, drop-down, etc).
3.) Choose a service to sync your catalog with (this would initially only be Flickr but could be branched out to another service or even a simple XML output).
5.) Enter in needed parameters for the service (in the case of Flickr the username and password of the account your using)
4.) Press the "Analyze" button.
5.) PSESync will first check to see if your catalog has ever been synced with the selected service before. If not it will create a new table in the catalog database to contain the sync information.
6.) PSESync will then sync your images (including captions and tag information) and collections with the service. No changes will be made to the images at sync time, only the data that PSE keeps (captions, tags, etc). I may include automatic resizing of images when a new image is uploaded but this would probably come after the initial release.
By syncing I mean any information that is newer in the catalog then they are in the service will overwrite data in the service and any information that is newer in the service will overwrite the data in the catalog. The details of how this process would work are still being worked out.
I'm hoping that in the next couple of days I can get the basics of PSESync scoped and also get create the project on Sourceforge (http://www.sourceforge.net) to track feature requests, bugs, etc. I'll post that information when it's available but for the time being if anybody has any suggestions I'm all ears.

Chromium crash on flickr uploader a other pages [SOLVED]

Since a couple of updates chromium crashes on a few pages. Flickr uploader and wordpress.com blogs are an example.
There is no aparent reason. The system is 64bits, Intel graphic card and it's updated. I cannot get some verbose output from chromium executed from shell, so I have no idea of what's happening. I've tried using incognito mode and change flash for pepper flash lib and the problem is still there.
Anything you need just ask me.
Sorry for my english. Thank you in advance.

If you run the system, create another user and try something with that user (which uses a clean chromium profile). If everything goes right, you just need to clean your user's profile (that means losing bookmarks, history, and saved passwords, so think about making a backup).
If the problem persists with the new user, well, no idea, but at least you'll keep your profile as it is right now

LR3.2 import problem on computer with Windows OS

LR3.2 import problem on Windows OS
This is a continuation of a question that I posed on August 22, 2010 in the discussion string "Cannot import CR2". I have not been able to resolve the issue of importing an image into an existing folder location. I had not been able to work on this issue for a number of weeks due to other circumstances, until today.   Note that the following people had attempted to provide answers and suggestions already: ssprengel, JayS In CT.
I use a laptop with a Windows operating system and a Macintosh desktop with Snow Leopard. I run Lightroom on both of them. The Windows laptop has Windows Vista Home service pack 2, version 6.0 [6002]. Around August 12th I upgraded from Lightroom 2 [481478], to Lightroom 3 on the laptop. I left the LR2 on the laptop as well as LR3. On September 12th I upgraded the laptop to LR3.2. No other changes have been to the laptop or its software applications that I know of.
My current attempts at resolving the issue reveal that when I created a new catalog "Test Catalog" in LR3 and saved that catalog to my desktop new folder labeled "Test Catalog" that I can import an image into LR3.2 to a new folder on the laptop's desktop. I then deleted the images via LR3.2 Folders Remove function and tried to import the images into an existing folder as presented in the LR3.2 Import dialog, but get the error message "The following files were not imported because they could not be read.".   When I import images into a new folder placed on the desktop, I can use all functions in LR3 e.g. Develop module. I cannot import images into existing folders on the laptop's hard drive - I have tried importing into the entire existing folders in the following hierarchy: c:\users\Michael\My Documents\My Pictures\2010 but always get the same error message.
LR3.2 does correctly backups upon exiting each time I quit the program, so I know that there isn't any issue of writing to that backup folder which is contained in an upper folder that contains the lightroom catalogs. I have even created a new Word file, saved it into the folder with Lightroom catalogs, opened it up, modified it, saved it, and saw that it works OK, so that tells me there is no problem with a Read-Only folder attribute.
I cannot recall if upon the upgrade from LR2.6 to LR3 that I chose to upgrade the catalog to LR3 version. Would that matter, if yes, what do I verify, how do I manual upgrade the catalog.
History of actions between August 10th that I have taken follows between the [[[[ and ]]]]:
[[[[Preference settings for Default Catalog are set to start with a specific catalog that I call "Lightroom master catalog", it is not set to the "Load most recent catalog".
All of the following were using my laptop: Previously I had no problem with LR2 for any functions. I just purchased an Epson 7000 media storage device, and in early August and practiced importing images into LR2, and those images were pulled in OK. Next, I upgraded to LR3. I discovered that the Epson's images had been placed into a wrong folder when I opened LR3. I used the remapping function in LR3 to move the images into the correct folder. Next, I used a SanDisk card reader to import images into LR3 into an existing folder of images, but the following error message appeared "the following files were not imported because they could not be read" (Import Results said 'some import operations were not performed'). I tried importing a single image, and multiple images, but had the same error. I tried switching the card reader to each of 4 different USB port on the laptop, with the same error occurring on each USB port used.
In order to try to isolate the problem. I took the SanDisk card reader with the memory card and successfully imported the images into LR3 on my Macintosh desktop computer; so to me the problem is not the card reader or the memory card. I also used the SanDisk recovery disk while using my laptop to look at the files on the memory card and I could see all the images correctly while in the recovery program, but I have not copied the images to the laptop's hard disk, and have not tried an import into the laptop's LR3. I did not import images directly from my camera to the laptop LR3 since I did not think it would help with the troubleshooting.
I then ran the Repair from the Adobe LR3 CD upgrade disk, on my laptop. Then I tried doing the import using the SanDisk reader and memory card, but the same problem occurred and same error message, that the files could not be imported (I was trying to import into a folder of existing images). I then used the Laptop's Control Panel function to remove LR3 application. Then I did a fresh upgrade of LR3 on my laptop, but the same error message and I am unable to do any import of the memory card from the card reader. I then tried to do an image import from the Epson 7000 into the laptop, and the same error message and I am unable to do any import into a folder with existing images.   I then tried doing an image import into LR2 on the laptop, and got the same problem to occur when trying to import into an existing folder of images. I have a couple of Canon EOS SLR digital cameras, and the issue occurs for any of the file types of the cameras.
Went into LR3 Preferences, General Tab, I now checked the previously unchecked box for Import Options - "Show import dialog when a memory card is detected".
Connected the Canon XTi directly with a cable to the laptop computer. Note that Canon's information said that Picture Transfer Protocol is automatically used when the XTi is directly connected to a computer, so I did not need to change anything in the camera's menu for communications choices (there is no communication menu in fact). I selected one image and copied it to the laptop desktop. Tried to import it into LR3 into a folder of existing images but got the error message "Could not copy a file to the requested location." While in LR3, I changed the location of where the file would be copied into - any of my existing folders of images; tried 5 different folders, but kept getting the same error message.
With the card reader connected via USB port on the laptop, I copied one image file to the desktop, and then tried importing into LR3 into a folder of existing images. Got the error message "Could not copy a file to the requested location."]]]]

I am not clear if by 'import' you are trying to copy or move the files from a location to another or if you are adding the files to a catalog. My comments may not, therefore, be too helpful.
Firstly, with both LR2 and LR3 installed you will have both catalogs present, but if you try to open the LR2 catalog with LR3 you will be prompted to update the catalog. You will thus know which catalog you are working on.
Secondly, if you are reading direct from the camera, you should connect using the 'PC connection' mode.
Thirdly, there is an issue with reading .CR2 files directly from the early Canon DSLRs (in Europe named 300D, 350D, 400D). While they are visible with the Canon software, they can not be seen with Windows explorer nor can they be accessed with Lightroom.
I suggest that you take the CF card out of the camera and copy the files using Windows Explorer in to the destination folder. You are then sure that the files are on the PC.
If you have the right Codec installed, you can view them with Windows photo gallery; if you don't, you can use one of the Canon software packages to view the files. You are then sure that the files are not corrupted.
Then import the files to your LR catalog using the normal import routine selecting 'add without moving'. I have tried this routine successfully using my 350D using both LR1.x and LR3.x. If that doesn't work - I'm lost.

Need a fix for Muse upload problems to GoDaddy???? I found one!

GoDaddy now has a new cpanel named "Plesk". In that panel you will find File Manager. (I use the Windows version). In the left panel of File Manager, you will see the root directory and all of its subfolders. When you click on any of these folders, you will see their contents in the right panel. You will also see a folder labelled "httpdocs". This is the default folder that is set up in GoDaddy to be your "home" folder. So, to fix your upload problems, do these steps:
1. Click on the httpdocs folder to see it open in the right panel. In the toolbar above the right panel, you will see a green plus sign with the word "New". Click on this drop-down menu.
2. Choose "directory"
3. Type in the name of one of the folders that your site will need, e.g. images, css, assets, scripts, etc. This basically creates a subfolder within the httpdocs folder, right? (There is a way to see how your Muse site sets up these folders prior to publish or upload. You do this by choosing "Export as HTML" in the File menu of Muse, creating a folder on your desktop (or wherever) for the HTML export, then inspecting its contents after your save it.)
4. Continue to create all the subfolders within httpdocs that you will need. Unfortunately, you have to do this one folder at a time.
5. After you have them set up, begin the process of uploading your site, like this:
6. In the File menu in Muse, you'll of course see "Upload to FTP Host ...". Click on it.
7. A dialog box will open. In the top text field, type in your website name ... you must use www. with your entry
8. In the "FTP Host" field, type in your domain name again like this ... "ftp.yourdomain.com" ... NO FORWARD SLASHES!!! (even if you find instructions to the contrary, like in Filezilla) (Also, your domain might be a .org or .net, instead of a .com)
9. In the "Host directory" field, YOU MUST ENTER "httpdocs"!!!! Despite what you learn, DO NOT LEAVE THIS FIELD BLANK!!!
10. Then enter your GoDaddy username and password. (If you set up a different username for your GoDaddy account and your Plesk account, like I did, then use your Plesk username and password.)
11. Click on "Upload: All Files"
The next few steps are tedious, but necessary to keep your site organized on GoDaddy and to keep from confusing things. You can probably get away with it, but, if your site doesn't load properly in a browser after doing the above steps, you'll need to click on each folder in the root directory that you copied as a subfolder in the "httpdocs" folder and delete the files. For example, in the left panel of File Manager, you'll see the root directory. Click on the "images" folder. If there are any images that you need for your site in that folder, delete them. Remember ... you've already copied them over to the images subfolder in httpdocs during your last upload described in the instructions above. If you don't trust that you can delete them, click on the "httpdocs" folder, then click on the "images" folder and check the files. Same files, right? So, go ahead and delete the site files that you find in the appropriate folders in the root directory, making sure that you don't delete the ones that are NOT duplicated within the "httpdocs" folder. Also remember that your .html pages will not require a subfolder to be set up in the "httpsdocs" folder. They can just sit there, looking pretty. But you will have to delete them from the root directory to keep things tidy. Just click on the folder icon next to "root directory", and you'll see those html pages in the right panel. Again, delete them.
REMEMBER: To keep your Muse uploads to your GoDaddy site error free, you must ALWAYS make sure that "httpdocs" appears in the "Host directory" field in the "Upload to FTP Host ..." dialog box in Muse. And all files and folders that your site needs MUST go in the "httpdocs" folder in the root directory of your site in GoDaddy's File Manager (now found in your Plesk Panel).
I hope this wasn't too confusing. If so, call GoDaddy. I called them with this fix and they are using it in their phone support.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I was going out of my mind. And GoDaddy was no help (although they're usually really good.) I put all the folders in "httpdocs" and the website worked perfectly!

A different uploading problem

I have read through the discussions and see that a lot of people are having an uploading problem. I am too, but my problem is a little different. When I upload my photos, everything seems to be fine, all the pages turn from blue to red, and it appears to be done. But, if I quit iWeb, it says it hasn't finished uploading. When I go to the site on the web, everything is there. So, it seems to not be finalizing the last little part where it marks the files as uploaded.
I am using iWeb 1.1.1.
I have tried deleting the files from my iDisk and uploading again.
I have repaired permissions.
I have deleted the file com.apple.iWeb.plist
It's not that I'm trying to quit too soon, I have left it for hours, even overnight, and it doesn't complete.
There's a small circle to the right of the word site that fills in to show progress as it's finishing, and that gets to the point where there's only a small sliver of white.
Any ideas? Thanks for the help!

Flickr uploading

I realize the integrated Flickr uploading in Aperture 3 is limited and I may simply need to move to a 3rd party ap. Still, I have a question.
I have Aperture 3 installed on my iMac and MBP. If I create a Flickr group to upload on the MBP it does not appear in the iMac. I understand that Aperture3 won't see sets created in Flickr unless they were created by Aperture, but is there a way that I can get a group to appear in both instances of Aperture 3 if the group was created by Aperture?

Flickr upload syncing

Using the Flickr uploader changes information in photos. Why is the following happening? Any way to change it.
1. It causes them to take on the date of the upload to Flickr rather than their actual EXIF date. This is annoying me to death since I like to have my photos organized by date correctly.
2. The original file takes on the name of Flickr's custom name for the image. This means that when I import folders, the original file thinks it hasn't been imported yet and tries to again.

I am also of the view that the Flickr publishing in LR (inc 3.4RC) is seriously broken in several respects including a failure to be able to republish a set of photos which are private and not publically searchable – an API error occurs on republishing. Also for your publically published photos if you ever re-publish, they become marked as not-publically searchable when they get to Flickr. This may be relevant if you expect your photos to be publically found based on your tagging or titles showing up in searches.
I too recommend Jeffrey Friedl’s plugin until such as time as Adobe chose to fix this or strike up a commercial relationship with Jeffrey to ship his.

Uploading problem with Ebay and Dreamweaver MX

I am unable to sync websites with Dreamweaver MX 6.01. When I connect to the remote server, it shuts down the program. I have reinstalled the program, but it still does it. Also, when I use Safari, Opera, and Firefox to upload photos on Ebay, the upload process fails completely, and blows me directly into My Ebay, as if I was not on the selling page at all. I have to go to my PC to do the photo uploads. Seems like it may be a related issue, some kind of uploading problem with Rosetta, or something. I am using a Macbook Pro with the 2.0Ghz processor, connected with ethernet cable, and firewall is set to off. Any ideas?

For E-Bay you might try the following:
Type the following command in Terminal (while Safari is NOT running):
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu 1
Then launch Safari, and you will be able to use the new Debug menu.
If you ever wish to disable it again, just repeat the command with a "0" instead of a "1".
Under the Debug menu, you'll see the User Agent sub-menu; select Windows MSIE 6.0 from the list and then try connecting to your web site
Dreamweaver you might need to update your version.
To Dreamweaver 8.01

Flickr upload failures in Mac PSE 9

Hi, I've not yet managed to get Flickr upload working in PSE 9 on MacOS 10.6.6.
The symptom is that the upload brings up a blank, white window which is rapidly replaced by a grey window with the error:
Sorry, an error occurred during the uploading process. Please try again later.
On the first attempt, I was invited to authorise Adobe PhotoServices to access my Flickr account and this appeared to go OK, but then the upload failed. I've followed troubleshooting advie from Adobe on the web but to no avail.
I did manage to upload from a PC running PSE9 and the MAC upload worked once afterwards, but has failed ever since.
Has anyone go any suggestions please?

Thanks Barbara, I assumed it would be the same as Windows.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/elementsorganizer/using/WSFF2996DE-8185-4c18-B961-ED4E89458E80 _WIN.html
Perhaps try the Editor top menu:
File > Process Multiple Files
Then choose an output folder on your hard drive or CD/DVD etc.
Otherwise use iPhoto:
File -> Export, Kind: Original etc.

LR3 - LR5 upgrade problems

I've bought LR5 as an upgrade disk from Amazon. Previously I had LR3 installed on my MAC OSX 10.9.4. Installation from disc was reported ok. After inserting the serial number, the original LR3 serial number is found, but if I hit continue LR5 disappears without any further message. Next time I start LR5, it starts again with asking for the serial number ...

Uploading problems with Safari 4.1.3 -

Hello, I just thought this was a funny question to ask -
On my PowerPC G5 tower, running OS 10.4.11, and my question is in regards to Safari version 4.1.3 uploading problems for facebook and youtube... I always have to use FireFox version 3.6.13... and not without trouble either.
I get it. I need a new computer, but I just thought it fascinating why one works 90% of the time and the other never works.

Firefox is way more upto date than Safari in 10.4.11, but TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
Also I think they Require Flash &/or Java, which may be a problem in 10.4

Is Safari the problem? upload problems after Leopard install...

I installed maximum ram and leopard 10.5 on my old emac and it runs great. I had problems uploading photos to ebay, and attachments to emails, so I installed ilife hoping the upgrade would fix the problem. Nope, when I attempt to upload, the icon just spins and spins, on and on. Could this be a Safari problem? Very frustrated, totally stumped.

I'm not sure how to link to the iPhoto post thread that help me solve my upload problem. But it is solved. I had to resize the jpeg pic files to 640x320 because my files were way to big. Thanks Old Toad!
