Movie in iPhoto won't upload to mobileme gallery

I am trying to upload a short video to my mobileme gallery imported from my digital camera to iPhoto. I have several others that I have posted using iPhoto 08. Every time I try to do it, it starts the process, shows the video with pending underneath it, you see it listed on the sidebar with the spinning arrow, then iPhoto just quits. When I relaunch iPhoto it shows up on the left under mobileme gallery but if you click on it nothing is there. When I go to my web gallery and log in, same thing. There is a place for it, but when you click on the video nothing happens, there is really nothing there.
What I have since done is bring the video into iMovie and share to my mobileme gallery and it works perfectly.
I really should be able to do it straight from iPhoto, as I have always done it that way before.
Anyone else having this problem?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Start with the troubleshooting basics:
1. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
2. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

My iPhoto won't upload pictures to Facebook...

My iPhoto won't upload pictures to Facebook. It lets me hit share and even choose the album I want to put them in. But when I click share the photos never show up on Facebook. Help?

Estou tentando há dias compartilhar fotos do iphoto para o facebook e não consigo, já desistalei várias vezes os dois aplicativos e não resolve. Acredito que depois da atualização do app facebook gerou esse conflito, como posso resolver isso?

Iphoto won't upload certain jpeg files from my camera?

i uploaded the files off my Nikon D7000 (not the first time) and iphoto gives me a message it cannot upload certain files (121 of them) as they are not recognized. the images are still on my camera, but won't upload onto iphoto. can someone help me understand?
the file names look like this: _DSC4337.JPG

What version of iPhoto?
Is that _DSC format the same as the ones which did import? I'm curious about that leading _
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
Post back with the result.

Newly downloaded movies from iTunes won't upload to my iPhone 3Gs, Newly downloaded movies from iTunes won't upload to my iPhone 3Gs

I recently downloaded both "Planes" and "Cars 2" from iTunes (available via the digital downloads included with the blu-ray discs of each) and neither will upload onto my iPhone 3Gs. The phone has other movies on it (and has plenty of room for new ones), but for some reason it completely ignores these 2 movies and won't upload them.

If you had a backup from before your old phone died, try using the backup (though if they are different models that probably won't work). Also, under the "Music" tab for your phone, make sure your choices are set so that they aren't excluding those songs. DRM might also be causing a problem. Finally, make sure the songs will play in iTunes and that they haven't been lost or anything. If you see an exclamation point by the song, it means iTunes can't find it. You'll have to manually tell it where the song is.

Iphoto won't upload pictures from iphone anymore

Hi there, whilst I was uploading my photos from my iphone to iphoto, my macbook battery died (eventhough it said 35 mins left-but that's a different story!) when i reconnected everything iphoto won't let me upload - it keeps saying 'iPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem downloading an image.' No pictures are actually in iphoto from the upload when the battery died so I don't know why it keeps saying this. I tried using Image capture but this didn't work either...Can someone help please?

I updated my phone to iOS 7.1.1 since writing my post, and that seemed to fix the problem. Thank you!

Iphoto won't upload to fb!!

I have never had trouble uploading albums to fb. But now, they won't upload. If I click on the album on the side bar, it will try but then an error message comes up and says to check login information. I am logged in to fb on my computer. If I click on the album in events, the publish button is greyed out and I can't click it. I have went to the change accounts button, it pulls up my fb without issue, I have logged out and back in several times, but still no luck. Any suggestions?

When I said,
It does not show in in Photo Stream on my Mac or anywhere else
I meant, "I'm an idiot". It shows up, in time sequence, not at the end of the photostream. I just didn't look back far enough in the stream to see them.

Videos Won't Play in Mobileme Gallery App

Hi. I recently downloaded the MobileMe Gallery app. The app displays the Photo Albums and Videos in my gallery but, when I try to play the videos, I get this message: "This video can't be played on this device." The videos were created in Imovie and shared directly to my MobileMe gallery, so I'm not sure why I can't play them on my phone. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Me too - iMovie video, uploaded to My Gallery, accessed via Safari 4.0 on my MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard, is displayed on the screen with the Apple equivalent of the Microsoft spinning hour-glass (you know, the clockwise tick thing) with a question mark sat in the middle of it all. And the video completely refuses to play.
I know it's a Safari problem because the video plays fine when I use Firefox. I have even tried uninstalling Safari (drag and drop to the Trash) and then reinstalling. I've got to the point where I'm thinking of dropping Safari altogether, even if it does have nice MobileMe sync settings...
Come on Apple, what's the craic here?

A3 unable to upload to MobileMe Gallery

I've been trying to upload 8 RAW and JPEG shots to my MobileMe gallery so a colleague can download. Each time I try I get a server error. Would appreciate anyone's ideas/suggestions.

I haven't tried today, but it's been working OK for me. If you're in a hurry, you could upload them to your iDisk and make them available for download there as a work around.

Uploading to mobileme gallery crops my movie on the sides.

How do I prevent this and get the full image?
Thanks,
Kimcam

My thought is that a 19 minute movie at medium might take about 1 to 2 hours to upload (with my internet speed). But it should work.
You have already tried the obvious thing, which is a shorter movie.
Part of the problem is that the upload does not use FTP. Instead it uses WebDav, which is not as robust. If there is in error, or a dropped link, you have to start from scratch, and the odds of this get higher with longer movies.
If I were you, I would go to the Mobile Me web site, log in, and go to the Help section. Find the document that seems closest to your problem, and try the solution. That same page should have a button to contact MobileMe support by a chat session. I figure if I am paying them $99/year, I might as well use their support. If "first level" chat support cannot resolve your issue, they will buck it to a "level 2" support person. You might hear from the Level 2 person by email with additional things to try. They should stay with you until it is resolved.
Another thing to try is to do it very late at night or very early in the morning before the internet gets congested.

My iPhotos won't upload to say an email or ebay

I have recently had my MacBook hard drive replaced and iPhoto was not on it. It is now OS Lion so I used a Life 09 disc to download iPhotos. This has worked fine but when I try to upload photos from it to say an email or ebay I can not get the iPhoto events up to select photos. When I click on the iPhoto library the coloured uploading icon appears but nothing happens.

There are server problems right now with iMessage effecting some users. See http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/.

IPhoto won't upload pictures from iPhone

I'm having trouble uploading photos from my iPhone 4 to iPhoto on my MacBook. When I connect my phone to the computer, iPhoto doesn't automatically open like it use to. However, if I manually open iPhoto it recongnizes that my phone is connected. When I click on my device it shows that there are no pictures to import, when infact, there are. The last time I uploaded photos from my phone to my computer was at the end of December. I believe there has been at least one or two updates to the iPhone since. Could that have something to do with it? Does anyone have any advice? Thanks!

I updated my phone to iOS 7.1.1 since writing my post, and that seemed to fix the problem. Thank you!

IPhoto won't upload to Facebook

Over the past two days, I've been trying to upload two separate groups of photos to Facebook using the iPhoto app for the new iPad. iPhoto repeatedly fails to upload more than half of the photos, taking sometimes up to an hour to upload just 10 photos. When I try to upload the remaining photos, some will post, but again, more than half will fail. Additionally, they upload out of order.
I haven't had this issue before.

I ran across this post by Paul Griffin today:

Re: My iPhoto will not longer let me hit the Facebook icon and immediately post to Facebook. Now it says, "Do you want to set up iPhoto to publish to Facebook?" which you still can't do. What gives?
Dec 30, 2012 7:26 PM (in response to laurafromhamilton)
Just solved it here after an hour+ of experimenting.
Try this:
• When you get prompted "Do you want to set up iPhoto of post to Facebook?" confirm and it will bring up your regular Facebook home page in asmall viewer window.
• Go up to the upper right corner of the Facebook page and log out, then hit the "Close" button at the bottom of the small viewer window.
• You'll probably get the same "Do you want to set up iPhoto to publish to Facebook?" prompt again. This time hit Cancel
• Now try to share your pictures to Facebook again. You'll get the "Do you want to set up iPhoto to publish to Facebook?" message again. Do it and this time hopefully you should get a prompt to login to your Facebook account. Enter your Facebook name and password. This should reset your connection.
• If successful you should get a prompt from Facebook that you can close the page. Close it and fingers crossed, all should work again. That's what worked for me.
If that fails the workaround is to export the photos to the Desktop from iPhoto and use your browser to upload.

IPhoto won't upload my photos to facebook

I created an album in iPhoto and I click on Share in the bottom right of my screen and select facebook. It creates an album on facebook and says it's uploading thumbnails then finishes. I check Facebook and the album is there but none of the photos are uploaded. If I try and manually add photos from Facebook the ones in the album cannot be selected. I'm having the same problem with an existing album on Facebook. I added some new photos to it within iPhoto and selected them to share and it only uploaded a few.

It's a know problem with iPhoto so we'll have to wait until the next iPHoto updater is released. In the mean time we you'll have to upload photos the old fashion way like you've already done, manually.

Movies in iPhoto won't sync

Over the years I have imported into iPhoto quite a few video clips shot on a variety of cameras and phones. Once in a while I'd load one that wasn't properly formatted to play on my iPhone 4 or 1st gen iPad, but a quick trip thru Handbrake solved most of those issues. Suddenly last night one set of clips taken during a visit to Park City Utah began to misbehave and actually blocked 136 new photos after them in the library from being synced to/from my iPad.
I've unchecked that particular event in the photo section of my iPhone in iTunes, but now two more clips have refused to sync, although they didn't block anything after them in the library. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this or a similar problem. I just ported over to Lion (profile info is obsolete) and ICloud this past week, but didn't have any syncing problems until several days later. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Ideas? . . . . Anyone?

Should I be able to see my MobileMe Gallery photos in iPhoto?

I posted this problem a couple of months ago but received no answer - I'm hoping that someone else may have experienced the same problem or someone can explain what it is that I'm doing wrong -
I upgraded from iPhoto '08 to iPhoto '09 in June 2009. I have nine MobileMe Gallery albums. Eight of these albums were created and uploaded using iPhoto '08 and only one with iPhoto '09. I have just noticed a problem which, I believe, has only happened since my upgrade and it's a strange one.
While scrolling through the Photos in my iPhoto 09 Library I noticed that for those photos that appeared in an album uploaded to MobileMe Gallery using iPhoto 08 I have the photo and immediately next to (after) it a white dotted outline of a blank/black space with the Title of the previous photo under it. If I select this 'blank' photo and drag it to the Trash it removes the photo from my MobileMe Gallery album!
This applies to every photo uploaded to all 8 MobileMe Gallery albums with iPhoto 08. The behaviour is not repeated in the images uploaded to the one album I have uploaded to the MobileMe Gallery using iPhoto 09.
Before I realised the significance of these 'blank' photos I selected them as I was scrolling through my Library in Photo view and moved them to the iPhoto Trash! Then I discovered that doing so removed them from both the album on my MobileMe Gallery and the MobileMe Gallery album that I see in the left hand column of iPhoto.
WIll I have to live with these 'blanks' in my Photos view forever?
I would be grateful if anyone can suggest how I might be able to fix this problem.
Cheers
Tricia
PS I have now created another 5 MobileMe albums using iPhoto '09. All these display correctly in my iPhoto 'Photos' view as well as on my MobileMe Gallery so I can confirm that the 'blank' problem only relates to MobileMe albums I created and uploaded using iPhoto '08.
Surely other people have experienced the same problem??

Many thanks for your prompt reply. I don't have a backup drive with me at the moment but as soon as I get back to my Time Capsule I'll backup and do as you suggest. Hopefully, that will solve the problem.
Cheers
Tricia
