No longer able to create cards in iPhoto?

I have previously been able to create cards in iPhot using photographs from my iPhoto library. I recently created a thank you card and went through the purchase process as I previously have done, however after entering my payment details the order process failed, iPhoto just kept telling me to try again but I always got the same result.
Since then I have not been able to create any new cards in iPhoto and I am unable to access any of the cards or calendars I have previously designed. Any previous cards are just blank when I click on them in iPhoto and when I attempt to create a new card, iPhoto lets me chose a design but WILL NOT let me add any photographs to the card?
Please help, I recently got married and my wife and I are desperate to send out the thank you cards to our guests and I do NOT wish to have to go to an online service like TruPrint! Thanks.

Try this, go to https://appleid.apple.com and see if updating security settings in "Manage my Accounts" corrects the problem.

I am no longer able to upload photos from iphoto to Facebook. The "publish" button is now "grayed out." Any suggestions?

The window doesn't automatically pop up now. When you plug the card reader in, you should see a 4th option on the lower bar of the photos app. I think it says camera. Tap on that then you can see and inport your photos.
If you are still having issues, try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. It won't hurt any data but can clear gliches.

No longer able to create a new message window in Apple Mail

Please help! When I am in Apple Mail, I am no longer able to create a new message window (Command-N), and so cannot send any mail. This just started after the most recent OS update yesterday.

Have you tried
1. clicking on the New Message icon?
2. File menu / New Message?
I am trying to figure out if your problem is because Mail is not working, or whether it is a problem elsewhere, e.g. the keyboard.

I am no longer able to create chapters in my Apple TV files

I am no longer able to create chapters in my Apple TV files. When I first started editing on the Mac (November 2009) I had a brand new iMac and Snow Leopard. With Snow Leopard came a 'special' version of QuickTime (QT X?) which were told not to update to 'Pro' (QT 7 Pro). My process was to use FCE with chapter markers to export my home videos to a QuickTime file. FCE created a beautiful .mov file with embedded visual chapters as I had marked them. It imported fine into iDVD. The next step was to 'Save As' within QuickTime and choose to save with the Apple TV profile. The .mov file would be converted and everything, including Chapters, would go with it. From Apple TV, I could peruse my home movies and dig deeper via chapters. Amazing and totally cool.
About 9 months ago, maybe a year, the chapters were no longer saving with the Apple TV format. This meant that each hour long home movie could not be accessed via chapters.
Was this functionality removed from QuickTime X? Is there any way to get it back? I am almost a year behind in my editing since I can no longer easily get the chapter markers in.
Thanks,
D.

im glad that somebody is atleast trying. perhaps i need to be more clear.
i will step by step describe the issue in detail.
1) i open an email that contains an attachment .dxf or .pdf
2) i click on the attachment shown in the email and aprompt comes up asking if i want to open or save the attachment.
3) i select save. (by default it saves to a downloads folder. but i have also chosen to use other folders (when i did that it wouldnt save them)
4) i highlight the downloads arrow on the right top side of my browser and click it
5) it pulls down a list of the files that i USED to be able to click and drag onto my destop, or anyplace i chose
6) used to be when i clicked and held the left mouse button down on top of a file of my choosing it would highlight and as i began to drag, a ghost image would appear of the file i was dragging. showing a (/) symbol next to it showing i couldnt drop the file within the browser and a + simbol showing that i could drop the file when the file was hovering over a place where i could drop the file such as my desktop or other folder. now, when i click and hold on the file.... I DONT get anything. when i drag. nothing follows. while i am "dragging" in the area that is my browser, i get the pointy finger icon. as soon as i enter an area where i could have dropped the file as before, i get my standard cursor arrow.
its really as if the drag and drop feature just dosent work IN FIREFOX.
i can drag and drop files all day long everyplace else.

Thanks for the reply ed2345.
It doesn't help me. I used to be able to have WAV as my default import setting. Then if neccesary I was able to 'create ALAC version' by right clicking and selecting it in the menu. I can no longer do that.
Regards, Artman
Artman,
iTunes has always allowed exactly one import setting, and it applies both to CD ripping and to format conversion!
However, it is not that hard to change it and then change it back if you need a different setting for a different purpose, such as creating an ALAC version.

After installing PSE 10 on OS X Lion, no longer able to select pictures from iPhoto library

I've downloaded and installed Photoshop Elements 10 on my MacBook Pro, which is running OS X 10.7.4. After installation and importing the photos from iPhoto, I noticed that I am no longer able to select images from my iPhoto library from other applications, such as Facebook, Address Book, etc. (ie; typically in a dialog to select a photo or image, simply browse to iPhoto library to get access to all Events, Albums, Faces, etc.).
This capability now seems to be broken even if I browse to the iPhoto Library using Finder. Showing Package Contents on the iPhoto Library reveals that all the images are there.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Drilling into the file structure of the PE Organizer is painful at best.

You assume too much. I am not mucking around with the iPhoto Library.
Here is an example of my problem:
Open Address Book
Select a Contact
Click Edit
Double Click the Photo icon
A dialog appears for me to "Choose" a photo
Click Choose...
Another dialog appears for me to browse to the photo that I would like to attach to that conract
I select my username under "Favorites", then expand the "Pictures" folder
When I click on iPhoto Library, I am no longer able to expand it and presented with the photos, events, faces, albums within it, but only get an icon for the iPhoto Library instead.
This is part of the way a Mac works, and is now broken. It exhibits this in Address Book and any other program, and it was working fine until I installed PSE 10.

WGM no longer able to create ACL

I have created some users and wanted to adjust ACL settings - but when I try to drag&drop a user into the ACL list, it just does not work.
Has anyone an idea where I can look ?
I even have removed all created users (maybe I had made a mistake there), but still the same. I'm not able to create a ACL.

I have solved the problem by myself:
ACL were not enabled, or better said, they were disabled for unknown reason.
I enabled it by opening WGM, tab "Sharing", "All", click at the volume and enabling "Enable disk quotas on this volume" and "Enable ACL on this volume".
But I ask me, why they were disabled ? Have I just missed to enable them overall (I try to configure two servers and so may have really mixed up things) ? I thought that both (quotas and ACL) are enabled by default, aren't ?
I tried to created some users via the WGM and got some error messages, may this be affiliated with ?
Can anyone explain the different permissions in my previous post of the /Users directories ? Here I'm quite sure that I haven't changed them, at least not without knowledge.
I look forward to any hints on this ghost issue

HT2534 Are we no longer able to create accounts without a credit card?

I saw the instruction of how to create an account without a credit card on the support website, but I can't create my account doesn't matter whether I use my laptop or my ipad.
Why? why??
Everytime I choose "none" as an option for credit card, the system tells me to seek assisstance on this support website.
I watched a video on how to make a no credit card account online, the system didn't stop him, so I wonder if we have to choose a credit card when creating an account now I have a point card but I can't use it now because of my account.....

Those instructions do still work, I used them yesterday in response to another thread and was able to download a free app with it. Are you currently in the country where that is account is based ? You need to be in a country to be able to use its store.

No longer able to create home directories

I'm having a slight problem here. Recently after adding some new users, with PHD activated I have been having problems creating home directories on the server.
If i am in local node I can create home directories, but once i switch over to LDAP/myserver home directories are no longer created ---> this leads to me no longer being able to sync homes or do anything.
Does anyone have any advice for me? I've deleted the users directory, created new ones, turned the ldap service off, restarted, turned it back on, restarted, added new users tested tested tested to no avail.
Any help would be appreciated.

My Woes continue :
So far I have reinstalled OSX server, re-set everything up for an OD master, dns ,afp ect. And I am still having issues with WGM to create home directories for my users. SO, i decided to create all my users and than type in terminal : createhomedir -s --> the end result no changes.
Next I tried
Createhomedir -b and voila I get all my home directories built. Fantastic. Or so I think. so i start to log all my PHD users in, everything seems good. Than i start a test, simply downloading a file to my desktop. I hit sync now. The sync window comes up, few conflicts but other than that everything looks great. I goto the users home directory on the server and no changes.
So where are my PHD's syncing to?
This is getting very frustrating because I am pretty sure nothing is being backed up anymore.
any advice would be great.

Epson V500 scanner no longer able to create "PDF" file.

No longer able to delete photos

To make it easier to access the iPhoto library from multiple users on our computer, I moved the iPhoto Library to /Users/Shared/Pictures and set up permissions so that only the owner has write permission and other users are read-only (we had to do this to sync photos to multiple iPods; sharing via network doesn't allow this). However, despite the library and all subdirectories and files being owned by the user with write permission (and read permission, and execute permission for directories), that user is no longer able to delete photos in iPhoto. Whenever that user tried to delete a photo, iPhoto just beeps.
This seems strange. Why should the library directory location matter? All that should matter is file permissions, and that user has "rw" for ordinary files and "rwx" for directories. So, what's causing this trouble?

As Terence mentioned the Shared folder just doesn't work anymore. Here's Apple's document on sharing a library between multiple users: iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users. The disk image method does work and you can set it up in everyone's account preferences to automatically mount then they log in. It would act just like an external HD. You would have to make sure to size it to accommodate growth in the library for some time to come.
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.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Problems printing Greeting Cards from iPhoto 6 and 8

I've had this problem since I tried it in iPhoto 6, and that is printing greeting cards in iPhoto doesn't work with my inkjet printer. When the first page prints, it's not centered, so when I flip the page and print page 2, they are not aligned and won't cut correctly. My Aunt is able to print cards from iPhoto but only by doing some long 20 step process of exporting them to jpgs using Preview, then printing them from some custom template in Pages. When Mr. Jobs said "Home Printing" was going to be fixed in '08, I got all excited only to see I'm having the same problems. Any one have any luck with this from inside iPhoto?

If you have a 3rd party editor that can handle layers take a look at Tutorial #8.

When I import photos from Photostream into my iPhoto, it no longer organizes them into Events. I haven't been able to creat an Event since November 2013.

When I import photos from Photostream, iPhoto no longer organizes them into Events. Although I can organize my photos into old or newly created Albums, I haven't been able to create an Event since November 2013. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Flag the pic(s) and select the the Target Event and go Events -> Add Flagged Pics to Selected Event
i see how to do this
Drag the selected pic(s) to the target Event.
i'm struggling with this. i don't see a way to drag a pic from photostream direct to an event. if i'm in photostream, i can drag a pic, but i can't see any individual event to drag it to. i can dump it in Events in the sidebar and drag to an event from there, but that's a bit clunky.
beats me why i can copy a pic in photostream, but iphoto won't allow me to paste in an event???

I have a MacBook Air and recently downloaded the new operating system. Since that time, I am no longer able to access my personal ITunes library to add music to IPhoto slideshows. I put I tunes library on my desktop, as suggested. How do I drag it?

I have a MacBook Air and recently downloaded the new operating system, 10.10 OSX Yosemite. Since that time, I am no longer able to access my personal ITunes library to add music to IPhoto slideshows. I put I tunes library on my desktop, as suggested. How do I drag it to the I Photo slideshow?

That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots 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.
