Ordering iPhoto books from Australia

Although a year ago Steve Jobs announced iphoto books were now available "world wide" he left Australia way down under! and living here in Sydney I cant order iphoto books without a US credit card. So, my question, Who would like to be my iphoto book buddy? Im looking for someone stateside who I can send my iphoto files to with money and have them order a book for me from there own Macs. Any one out there?
PS I'll send you my own photos of kangaroos, echidnas, cockatoos etc as a bonus for being a helpful, unseen friend!

Although the site says you need a US credit card, you don't and you can use an Australian Credit card just fine, you have to fudge the state and zip code but a bit of crativity will fix that. Helps if you use a different e-mail address and create a new Apple login. So all you need is somebody who is happy to provide the US (might also be possible to get somebody in Canada or Europe if you know somebody there) address, and you just need to send them $10 for express postage.
I've ordered two books this way, with no great problems, just the wait to get them

  • How to order iPhoto book from South Africa - not listed as country option

    How do you go about ordering an iPhoto book from South Africa - it is not listed as a country of option?

    I've found an excellent solution.
    www.24hourphotobooks.co.za
    I just saved it as a PDF and uploaded it to their website... their prices are resonable, the product is really beautiful and of superior quality, and they are super efficient!
    I've since used them twice! Brilliant company... I recommend you try them (also, they are based in Linbro business park in Johannesberg so you can pick up your book if you live in Jozi instead of courier... but for all other areas of SA they deliver to your door! Fantastic!)
    Hope this helps!

  • Can I ship an iPhoto Book from Australia to China?

    I have made an iPhoto book for my friends in China, detailing the good times we had over the years.
    Can I order it and give the address in China, in Chinese?
    It seems a waste to have it mailed to me and then for me to mail it again.

    That option is not available.

  • Iphoto order a book from Canada

    Is it possible to order a Book from iPhoto and to ship it to Canada. My Zip code isn't working when I order.

    If you already haven't done so try changing the Print Product Store to Canada in iPhoto's Advanced Preference pane and try again.

  • Language settings in Store when ordering a book from iPhoto?

    I wanted to order a book from iPhoto but the language was in French.
    How do I change the language settings in the store if I come from iPhoto directly into the store?
    note: I was accessing the Swiss store and it automatically defaulted to French

    Most likely you have a page with a "grey" palm tree or background on it - this is a background that contains a photo
    First go through you book and see if there are any grey backgrounds - if there are either add a photo as the background or change the background to a solid color
    If this does not work then you have a hidden photo background and you will need to go through the book again and select every full page photo layout and change it to a single photo layout that is not full page so you can see the background - when you find a grey background change it to a solid background and change the photo layout back to full page
    You will find your "missing" photo(s) and be able to order
    I also suggest asking Apple to provide some tools to help find these missing photos - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
    I also recommend looking through Liz Castro's web page for additions information on backgrounds and layouts for each iPhoto book theme - http://www.lizcastro.com/iphotobookthemes/

  • Can I order iPhoto prints from Malta?

    The options menu on iPhoto lets you select a print products store based on your shipping address.  Does this mean iPhoto prints are restricted to certain countries only, and will this feature be available in more countries in future?   Can I print copies from a UK store and then ship them to Malta?
    Thanks

    These are the countries that have Print Product Stores:
    You can try setting the store to the UK and order the book from there.  Often, however, the credit card used must has a billing address in the same country as the Print Product Store. But give it a try anyway.

  • How can I copy an iPhoto book from one Mac to another?

    I'm wanting to copy an iPhoto book from one MBP (OS 10.7.3) to another (10.8.3). Is there an easy way to do it?

    You will have to copy the entire iPhoto Library to the other Mac as the library is a virtual entity in the library recorece in the database files.
    Once it's been copied launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the libary in the window that appears.  I
    NOTE:  if the new Mac has  newer iPhoto version than the old Mac check to make sure it has the same theme that you used in the book.  There were some changes in themes from iPhoto 8 (09) to iPhoto 9 (11).  If your new iPhoto doesn't have the same theme you may want to complete the book on the old Mac.

  • Unable to order iphoto books :(

    Hi,
    I've never had trouble ordering iphoto books before.  In fact, I order one every year on our anniversary.  This year, I have tried to order our iphoto book 5 times and each time it makes it to the uploading page and then freezes.  I have to hardboot my computer in order to exit out of iphoto.  Does anyone know if this is a software glitch or if there is a setting I need to change?  I love ordering iphoto books and feel very discouraged
    Thank you, Jenny

    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
    If it is correct boot into safe mode and preview again (note that safe mode disables some fonts) and then order while in safe mode

  • How do I reduce the number of pages in an iPhoto book from 100 to 50

    How do I reduce the number of pages in an iPhoto book from 100 to 50.  I have selected 153 photos to be put in the book and iPhoto automatically designated the book to be 100 pages in length.

    If the auto place put photos on all 100 pages you'll need to reset the layout on the first 50 pages so all photos will fit in just those 50 pages.  Then add the photos to the first 50 pages and delete the last 50 according to the link Larry provided.

  • IPhoto book from multiple events.

    How do you create an iPhoto book from multiple events/albums? I start making a new book based on an album, but then want to add pictures from another event and another album. Can this be done and how?

    Sure - once you create the book it is totally disconnected form teh source - to add simply drag photos from any source to the book project in the source pane on the left

  • How to go about selling an e-book from Australia

    I want to sell an e-book from Australia, without a website, work telephone or US tax ID. What can I do?

    You can use an Aggregator or else a different store (e.g. Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Googlebooks, Sony).
    Getting a US tax ID is not normally a problem, if that is your main concern.

  • Ordering Photo Books in Australia with iPhoto 5

    We've just spend ages building a photo book using iPhoto 5.0.4 in Australia. We couldn't actually place the order though. After a call to Apple support in Australia, we have discovered that you can only order a photo book from iPhoto in Australia using iPhoto 6 & upwards...

    The Apple Australia web site says you can:
    http://www.apple.com/au/ilife/iphoto/print-products.html
    I'd suggest you ask for further assistance in the iPhoto forum. This forum is for old, pre-G3 Apple hardware and hence not the place where you'll be most likely to get useful advice.
    Regards.

  • How can i import and order photo books from older iPhoto versions?

    I have made a photobook which i have not ordered at apple yet. It's on another macbook still running iphoto 07 (unable to update iphoto, because to old for Mavericks)... Somehow i can't import this album on my laptop running iphoto 9.5.1 and order it from here...
    Does anyone have solution?

    Read again - the word "import" does not appear in either answeer - you never ever import one iPhoto library into another one
    books do not actually exist - they are simply database entries - so you have to move the entire iphoto library
    1 - rename it on the source machine
    2 - Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled)
    3 -  drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac
    4 - depress the opeion key and launch iPhoto on the new mac
    5 -  select the library with the book, convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward
    - be sure to
