Macbook/iphoto and elements 10
On my Mac working in iphoto I can choose in a photo menu : edit in extern programm. The Photo opens in elements.
With the same preferences working on macbook pro, only the program elements opens and not the picture I want to edit.
is there anyone that can help me? Cisca
Check your iPhoto preferences is pointing to the Editor application and not an alias. It's usually located in the support files folder. See image below.

Color discrepancies between iPhoto and Elements...
Okay, enough ******** about iPhoto ’08. I actually like it, but I have had no problems, so far. Anyway, there is something a little quirky I have been noticing: I do like the new editor in iPhoto, but I still jump between iPhoto and Elements. I have noticed that my on-screen images are generally a little lighter and with much better skin tones while viewing them in Elements. In iPhoto they are a little darker and skin tones are more red. What am I missing? Is there a setting (Color Settings in PSE, Color Sync) I should be paying attention to? It would seem to me that the image should look identical regardless of which editor I am viewing the image in.
Thanks for your thoughts…Old Toad wrote:

Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder. If you're still at 10.4.9 update to 10.4.10 via the COMBO updater. Also make sure you're at the latest Quicktime version.
Next, log into another account, create a library if there is none, import a couple of photos that are showing bad in your primary account and compare. If those photos appear correct there may be some conflicting preference files in your primary account. Here's how you can weed them out if that's the case:
Trouble Shooting Preferences
Go to HD/Users/Your_name/Library. Move the Preferences folder (in its entirety) to the Desktop and make a second copy of it so you have Copy A and B. Now try the the process again and determine if problem is fixed.
If the problem IS fixed, then go to the new Prefs folder that the OS will have created and open it up.
Open Copy B on the Desktop and select all of the items inside. Drag them into the open new library folder. When the Copy window comes up check the Apply to All check box and then click on the Don't Replace button as seen here. That will keep the new files created and bring back all of the others.
If the problem is NOT fixed, trash the new Prefs folder and move the intact Copy A folder back to the Library folder .
Lastly, rebuild the library as follows: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.

Old Toad,
Thank you for the advice. I have done everything you have suggested, except for the updating to 10.4.10. That is not an option. It trashed 5 of my machines and I am just now getting my main machine usable again. Thank God for backups.
I have taken the worst pictures and viewed them in every photo viewing application that I have including the Finder/Finder Window in column mode, iPhoto 6 and 4, and they are as they should be. This is clearly an iPhoto 7.x issue.
Thanks again! -
I have just bought a Macbook Air and I have a iTunes and iPhoto library in excess of the storage on the Air. I am trying to store the media on a NAS. This appears to be possible for iTunes with the iTunes server, can i do something similar with iPhoto?
Use the disk image method that Larry suggested but use a sparse bundle disk image. It's easier to manage than a regular disk image.

YIKES Photos disappeared from iPhoto AND Elements
Why are my pictures no longer appearing in my iPhoto program since I downloaded Photoshop Elements 12 to my MAC and imported all my photos? Only boundary boxes exist where the old photo used to be.
I tried restoring those files from my "Time Machine" backup, but this did not solve the problem.
ALSO...
I decided to create "catalogs" out of my folders. Perhaps this was a big mistake as I tried to do it intuitively. I selected a folder, then chose "new catalog. I found myself with a dialogue box that had no "cancel" option, so I went ahead and created a new catalog selecting some random pictures and figuring I could delete it later. Oops. WHOA! Now the only this new folder is visible. WHERE are the other picture/folders that existed prior to the creation of this new one? How can I access them? I do not have a backup of the files to restore.
Thirdly, when I WAS able to see all the media and scrolled I noticed that there are still duplicates (even though I thought I had previously and tediously deleted them). Is there a way to actually, purely and simply, delete duplicates?
Fourthly, and lastly (for now) just a comment that I was quite surprised by how many "face shots" Elements created out of a simple import. It seems that most of the photos had faces extracted and enlarged. Kinda cool, but not what I asked for.
Anyway, I'd sure like to find see the photos in tact. If you can help, I'd be most appreciative.
Thanks for listening.
Warm regards,
ZangmoYou totally rock!!! thank you, Barbara. Just ignorance of the program on my part. I knew I did not delete the originals (only a few that I did not want anyway). It seems so simple in hindsight. Problem solved, at least for elements. I need to study the manual! I appreciate you taking the time to respond.
I know where all the photos are so I wasn't too freaked out. Understanding that all is impermanent, I'll go with the flow and re-import iPhoto pictures.
Thanks a million,

I chose the option in iphoto preferences to have edit in elements 12. Elements 12 opens right up from iphoto but says it can't recognize the file. I am using JPEG files.
I have a hard cropping in elements 12 and it is so easy in iphoto.
So I was going crop in iphoto then finish editing in elements 12.
Thanks for any help.First of all, just to be sure, you are choosing this file as the external editor?
Assuming that's okay, is there anything about the file naming, like using forbidden characters, that may be getting in the way, like a using a period (my.pic.jpg, for example)? Slashes, dots, punctuation marks, etc. can all cause this. -
I hope this is the right area for posting this.
Sometimes I can drag a photo from iPhoto to my desktop and then to iTunes. I've done it once. Other times I can't. I was trying to do it today and the photo will not move from iPhoto.
Any hints?I hope you haven't bought the USB storage just yet. You already have the usd/ethernet dongle so transferring files should be very simle with an ethenet cable.
On your G4, in network preferences turn on file sharing and make sure your computer has a name.
then link the MBA to the G4 via ethernet. On the MBA, in the finder menu, pull down go, and select connect to server.
A new screen will appear and type in the name you gave your G4 and hit enter. Your G4 will then appear on the MBA desktop and you will be able to drag the files across to whichever location you want them in. -
I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive. I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto. How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive in Iphoto?
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

Using iPhoto and editing with Photoshop Elements 4
Hello
I am new to Macs after many years using PC and I am struggling to set up my photo workflow. I shoot in RAW format and input into iPhoto from iPhoto I double click on the photo and which opens the RAW editor in Photoshop Elements. After making changes I open the file in Photoshop and then save as a TIFF.
My problem is I do not see the changed and saved file in iPhoto and if I double click on the photo again it opens back up in the RAW editor not as a TIFF.
Can any one point me in the right direction to solve this or is what I am trying to do not possible
Thanks
GrantGrant
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
What you're trying to do is not possible.
When you save as a TIFF you create a whole new file that needs to be imported into iPhoto anew. iPhoto will track an edit as long as you stay with the same file - so, edit your jpeg in PSE and use the 'Save' command and the change is reflected in iPhoto. However, you cannot Save RAW files, it's always a Save As... and so the resulting file has to be imported.

I just got a macbook air and i thought that it was supposed to come with ilife already installed? But there is not ilife apps...how do i get it on the laptop without having to buy them all from the app store if it was supposed to come with it?
From the iPhoto Licence:
3. Transfer.
A. Apple Software obtained from the Mac App Store is not transferable. If you sell your Apple-branded hardware to a third party, you must remove the Apple Software from the Apple-branded hardware before doing so.
B. For any preinstalled Apple Software, you may make a one-time permanent transfer of all of your license rights to the Apple Software (in its original form as provided by Apple) to another party, provided that: the Apple Software is transferred together with your Apple-branded hardware; (ii) the transfer must include all of the Apple Software, including all its component parts, printed materials and this License; (iii) you do not retain any copies of the Apple Software, full or partial, including copies stored on a computer or other storage device; (iv) you have not associated the Apple Software with your Mac App Store account as set forth in Section 2B; and (v) the party receiving the Apple Software reads and agrees to accept the terms and conditions of this License.
If the previous owner accepted the preinstalled software (iPhoto, etc) to the AppleID, it cannot be passed on to a new owner. Even if the previous owed would use her or his Applied to install it for you, you would never be able to reinstall it or to update it.
In that case buy your own copies of the software. -
I updated the latest version of iOS software on my Macbook Pro and now when I try to open up iPhoto it says that I need to update the latest version. But when I go to update on iTunes, it says the latest version is unavailable to the U.S. I wouldn't mind leaving it be but I can't access any of my photos. What do I do?

I had a repair done on my MacBook Pro and had to have a new hard drive installed. The Apple Auth Repair Shop then updated the OS from 10.6.8 to 10.7.5. Now my iPhoto v 9.2.3 will not open and it sounds like it will not work with this OS. Can you please advise?
You may need many other updates to retain compatibility with Lion. I suggest you reinstall Snow Leopard. Unfortunately, you will need to erase the drive first. Be sure to backup your data if you haven't done so already.
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
(Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
you will be running a fresh install of OS X. You can now begin the update process
by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
installation current.

I currently have iPhoto 8.1.2 on my macbook pro and am trying to update to the latest version. I have had to work backward, but I can only get back to 9.1, which will not install because it says I need at least 9.0 to install it. Is 9.0 available? Will I need to go back even further? Thanks
Upgrading from iPhoto 8 to iPhoto 9 requires a purchase. There are two ways to get to iPhoto 9:
1 - purchase a copy of the iLife 11 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com or eBay.com.
2 - if your MBP meets the requirements upgrade you system for free to Mavericks. Then you can purchase the latest iPhoto version, 9.5.1, from the App Store.

I recently upgraded to Yosemite on MacBook Pro - unable to open iPhoto and Photo Booth
I recently upgraded to OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 on my MacBook Pro (bought in 2011). Since the Yosemite upgrade, I have been unable to open both iPhoto and Photo Booth at all. I have lots of photos and need to access them. Both icons of iPhoto and Photo Booth have a circle with a bar across them, in my dock.
When I click on iPhoto I get the message " In order to open “iPhoto”, you need to update to the latest version. The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac is not compatible with OS X Yosemite. Download the latest version for free from the Mac App Store". I have tried upgrading iPhoto on the App store but get an error message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store" .
Since I cannot even view my photos, I cannot store them elsewhere. Please, can someone help me resolve this problem!!!
For Photo Booth, when I click on it, it says "You can’t use this version of the application “Photo Booth” with this version of OS X. You have Photo Booth 3.0.3" - gives me no option to upgrade at all.
Would appreciate help for both iPhoto and Photo Booth issues described above, with iPhoto being the most pressing concern. Thank You.The new app is called Photos. It's icon was added to the Dock. Both, Photos and iPhoto, are located in your Applications folder.
If you need to upgrade iPhoto, follow these instructions prepared by Barney-15E: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-8431 -
I have photo stream setup on iPhoto on my MacBook Pro and on 2 new iPhones that have the same AppleID as the MacBook Pro. However only one iPhone will stream photos to iPhoto on the MacBook Pro. All these devices were purchased in the last 2 weeks. What setting is wrong?
Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back. -
