N00b question re: Library.iPhoto
Hi everyone,
Been lurking here for a couple of weeks and haven't seen this addressed yet...
I'm testing the waters with iPhoto after M$ bought up my favourite cataloging app iView, and I've a question about the files "Library.iPhoto" and "Library6.iPhoto" within the iPhoto Library Package.
Are these the database files for my Photos? If they were to become corrupt could I trash them?
My thinking is that iPhoto would rebuild the files upon relaunch but I don't to test that until I know a little more of what I'm talking about.
Thanks in advance for any direction on this...
It's not that complicated, and you know, the size of the photos - whether they come from a camera phone or a 20 megapixel dslr doesn't matter a whit.
If the database files get corrupted you have three courses of action - and I suggest you would use them in this order:
1. Copy the library6.iphoto file from a back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
if that's not possible:
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.
If that didn't work:
3. You would need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
So, those are your options in the event of a database failure.
Note that your photos, which are stored in the Finder are not affected by the database file being damaged.
Yes, email is easier with iPhoto (and the same is true of Aperture too)
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto. With 10.5 you can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Can't upgrade iPhoto Library - 'unable to write to library "iPhoto Library"'
I apologise in advance if this is a little convoluted.
I have a MacBook Pro purchased a little over a year ago and I'm not sure what version of iPhoto is was running. It had a meltdown when I tried to upgrade to Mountain Lion and was ably serviced and returned to me with all my data heroically saved and stored in a shared folder.
When I got it back I upgraded successfully to Mountain Lion and installed all the iPhoto updates. After a false start, and having to reinstall iPhoto I am now running 9.4.3.
I have shifted my old iPhoto Library out of the shared folder and into the Pictures folder where it sits alongside the pretty much empty iPhoto Library created automatically by the install. When I try to open my old Library it says it needs to be upgraded, which makes sense, but immediately after the upgrade commences I get an error message saying 'Unable to write to library "iPhoto Library" Check that you have permission to write to the library directory'. I am not sure what to do from this point.
I have verified that the photos are all still in the old iPhoto Library Package.
Thank you.
MelanieHang on - I had browsed extensively, but it was only after I wrote my question that all the other similar ones popped up on the side bar. I've followed the advice in some of those and it seems to be working. I apologise, but I seem to be unable to delete this discussion.

Why do I get question marks on iphoto instead of the photos?
Why do I get question marks on iphoto instead of the photos?
Possibly because you have set iPhoto to refer to photos stored elsewhere rather than copying them into its own library; and you've moved the photos.
If you have it set this way, Preferences>Advanced - 'Copy items to the iPhoto Library' will be unchecked. -
I have suddenly become unable to access photo library (iPhoto vers 9.5) on my external hard drive. Also time machine isnt backing up to same external hard drive (LaCie). The drive does show up on the desk top, but when i open iPhoto the library isnt listed, so I cant option click.
First, one should not try to run an iPhoto library from the same volume/drive that is being used by Time Machine for backups. TM will continue to fill up the drive thus squeezing out iPhoto from being able to be opened and used. Also that doesn't allow you to let TM backup your library as it does with other files on your boot drive.
If you partition the EHD into two separate partitions you can run the library from it but that won't let TM backup the library which is important.
Are you able to see the library on the EHD via the Finder? If so copy it back to your boot drive and open it there. You may have to do some fixing on it.
Solution is to either run the library from the boot drive or get a second EHD to run the library from and let TM back it up along with your boot drive.

I just bought a new Mac and I want to transfer some data (not all) from my old Mac. Basically, I want to move my itunes library, iphoto library, and a few documents. I have not even turned on my new Mac yet. Is the best way by an external hard drive?
If both have Firewire ports then you can accomplish your goal by using Target Disk Mode. If this is not possible then you can do using an external drive or if you have a local network connect both to your network and use filesharing between the two computers.

How are you launching iPhoto? From your Dock? The Dock icon may still be linked to an older iPhoto version. Just to be sure, you are opening really iPhoto 9.6, launch iPhoto by double-clicking the iPhoto icon in your applications folder. Your crash log with the the "Library not found" error message should show the version number of iPhoto. Which version is it showing? -
I think my iPhoto memory is full. I cannot get in to delete photos. When I open it I get the Unable to write to library iPhoto libraryCheck that you have permission to write to the library directory" and i can't do anything else. I tried alt/cmd first aid and it didn't work.
I want to get in and move pics over to a USB stick drive but cannot get past the Unable to write to library..message.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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.

TS2551 Library iPhoto Library "is open in (null)"
Running 10.7.4 on my MacBook Pro and using a LaCie as backup for my iPhoto Library (version 11, at least last time opened....) called “iPhoto Library Orange”. When trying to access my backup I get the message
"The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete."
Clicking Upgrade gives following:
"The library “iPhoto Library Orange” is open in (null). To open this library in iPhoto you must quit (null)." Only alternative is Cancel (Continue-button is inactive), which quits iPhoto.
No problems earlier, whats this sudden problem? How can I proceed?
Rgds TomBack up your iPhoto library and depress the option and command keys and launch iPhoto - repaire permissions
If this does not do it
Elijahg
post this response in another thread - some reported it worked - some reported that it did no - I have not tested
To fix it, you need to right click on the iPhoto Library and chooke Show Package Contents. Delete iPhotoLock.data, and then go to Database/apdb/ and delete lockfile.pid. Somehow this lockfile gets kind of stuck, with no PID inside causing the "(null)" part of the error message.

Library.iphoto vs. Iphoto Library
In my Pictures folder, what is the difference between "iphoto Library" and "Library.iphoto" ?
ThanksThe iPhoto Library folder is your library which contains your photos and all organizational effort like albums, calendars, books, slideshows, etc. The Library.iPhoto is the appendix of iPhoto 6 and 7, a file left over from the earlier versions and not needed by iPhoto 6 or 7. However, the file Library6.iPhoto is the heart and soul of the library. It contains the file paths to all of your photos, thumbnails and modified photos as well as what constitutes albums, slideshows, books, calendars, etc. It is most critical to the well being of the library.
The Library.iPhoto file normally resides inside the iPhoto Library folder. If you found it in the Pictures folder check inside the library folder to see if a copy exist there. In any case you can delete the file as it is not needed by either iPhoto 6 or 7.
However, that file is to iPhoto 5 and earlier what Library6.iPhoto is to the later libraries, i.e. the heart and soul of the library.
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 or later), 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.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard. -
Cannot open my library. iPhoto says I opened it before with a newer version which is not true.
Cannot open my library. iPhoto says I opened it before with a newer version which is not true. I am using Snow Leopard and iPhoto 7.1.5 which seems to be the latest update. How can I reach my photos? I don't particually care for iPhoto anymore since I am using Lightroom now, but I would very much like to reach my picture files, HELP
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption. -

Question re. restoring iPhoto Library?
Hi iPhoto community,
For what ever reason I decided to buy and install Lion 10.7 operating system on the weekend. I have always been interested in the spaces/expose feature which is maybe why Lion looked interesting for me. I realized that there would be some tinkering to sort out a few things after the fact.
I backed up my iPhoto Library, Pictures folder, Documents folder and Music folder to an external hard drive maybe a couple of weeks ago, these files especially my iPhoto Library were getting too large to keep on my internal iMac hard drive. I started a new iPhoto Library so my new iPhoto Library was quite small. I use time capsule for regular backups. I also synced my iPhone and iPad to ensure that I had collected all of my current work in one place.
I am having trouble finding all my pictures and setting up my iPhoto library again using time machine. The finder window of the new Lion operating system is differnent and I am not sure where to look. Pictures are not accessible in the new finder pane.
Does anyone know of any instructional webpages that could help me sort things out and retrieve my iPhoto Library with all my pictures. Should I use time machine or is there another way?
curious rHi Terence,
Thanks for the tip!
I followed your answer but with Lion 10.7 it tells me that I do not have permission to open pictures!
regards, CR -
Several questions about moving iPhoto library from PowerBook G4 to Mac Book Pro.
Hello,
So yes I was running an old PowerBook G4 laptop, had moved my iPhoto library onto a 2 TB external hard drive so I could free up space on my laptop. Now that I have a new Mac Book Pro, I decided to move the library onto it. Everything seems to have moved ok, except there seems to be a bunch of duplicates, some even have multiple copies. Now this is me looking at the events, and even the names are duplicated.
Can I safely remove and delete the duplicates, or is this just showing me the same photos / events / whathave you?
Also, I noticed when looking at the photos under library, the index shows a close up of any face that is in the photo. Is there any way to turn that feature off so I don't have to look at the same photo taking up a ton of space? Makes it harder to figure if I have duplicates.decided to move the library onto it. Everything seems to have moved ok, except there seems to be a bunch of duplicates, some even have multiple copies
How did you move the library to the new MBP? The correct way was to connect external HD with the library to the MBP and just copy the library into the Pictures folder. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the newly copied library and open it.
At no time should one library be imported into another. That created multiple duplicates and creates a real mess of the library.

Restore lost iphoto library (iphoto v.8)
Hi, I was making an iMovie and when I hooked up my DV camera it would not load the camera and an error came up and said you should put away in finder or data will be lost. Well I thought that was the camera not my external hard drive. The cables are next to each other and when I unplugged the Hard Drive LaCie Hard drive d2 Quadra, then my camera was found. So I proceeded to install the video. After I finished I went back to the photo library part of the iMovie and all the pictures were missing. I could not save the new stuff I did on iMovie. When I went into the iphoto library on my hard drive all 4,000 pictures where gone...So my question is can I retrieve my photos? Are they on that hard drive somewhere and I'm not seeing them. Time machine does not have them. Please help?
Thanks,
Fam5Fam5:
What has happened is the library's database file, Library6.iPhoto was damaged when the external HD was disconnected. If you have a backup copy of the library or the dB file that's current, i.e. no imports or major changes to the library since the copy was made you can replace the dB file in your working library with the backup copy.
If you don't have a backup copy you have two possible fixes to try:
1 - 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.
2 - if #1 didn't do the trick you'll have to start over with a new library and import the Originals folder from the old one as follows:
Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
Open the library package like this.
Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library if you have the Finder checkbox unchecked in the Events preference pane.
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 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 08 libraries 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. -
First time user questions (managing library, file size defaults, cropping,)
I'm on my first Mac, which I am enjoying and am also using iPhoto '08 for the first time which is a great tool. It has really increased my efficiency in editing a lot of photos at one time. However, the ease of use makes a couple custom things I want to do difficult. I'd appreciate any feedback;
1) I often want to get at my files for upload or transfer to another machine. When I access Photos with my Finder I can only see "Iphoto Library" (or something like that) which does not show the individual files. Very annoying. I have found that i can browse to one of the menus and select "Open Library" and then I can see all the files.
How can I make it default to this expanded setting? When I am uploading pictures via a web application, for instance, the file open tool does not usually give me the option to Open the library. By Default, I would like the library to always be expanded so I do not have to run iPhoto or select "open" to view the files.
Basically, I just want easy manual control of my files in Finder and other applications.
2) Where do I set the jpg size of an edited file? My camera will output 10MB files and after a simple straighten or crop, iPhoto will save them to 1MB files.
Ignoring the debate on file size, is there a way to control the jpg compression so I can stay as close to what came out of the camera as possible?
3) I crop all my photos to 5x7. If I do that once, it comes up the next time. However, once I straighten the photo and then choose crop, it always comes up with some other odd size by default (the largest rectangle that can be fit in the new photos size).
While I know this may be useful for some people, it is time consuming when going through hundreds of photos to constantly have to choose "5x7" from the drop down list. Is there a way to make this the default?
I'm sure I'll have some more questions, but thus far, I've been real happy with iPhoto.
4) The next task will be sharing this Mac Pictures folder on my Wireless network so my XP PC can access it. I'm open to any tips on that one as well....
Thanks!toddjb
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
To upload to MySpace or any site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services.
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
The format of the iPhoto library is this way because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.
Basically, I just want easy manual control of my files in Finder and other applications.
What's above is what's on offer. Remember, iPhoto is NOT a file organiser, it's a photo organiser. If you want to organise files, then use a file organiser.
Where do I set the jpg size of an edited file
You don't. Though losing 9MB off a 10MB files is excessive. Where are you getting these file sizes.
I crop all my photos to 5x7. If I do that once, it comes up the next time. However, once I straighten the photo and then choose crop, it always comes up with some other odd size by default (the largest rectangle that can be fit in the new photos size).
Straightening also involves cropping. Best to straighten first, then crop.
The next task will be sharing this Mac Pictures folder on my Wireless network so my XP PC can access it.
If you use the hack detailed above be very careful, it's easy to corrupt the iPhoto Library, and making changes to the iPhoto Package File via the Finder or another app is the most popular way to go about it.
