Ordering photo book from Slovakia

I know that normally it is not possible as Slovakia is not listed in the supported countries. However, I would like to check if someone has an experience for example with exporting whole book to PostScript and then sending via e-mail to Apple shops in Austria for example and let it print there. Technically it should not be a problem. Or even going there physically (less then hour by car).

The books are not printed at Apple Shops but at specialist print houses which also have the binding capability. As fas as I know in Europe the books are actually printed and bound in the Netherlands.
Also, the Apple Stores have no role in the process at all. It's highly automated and you cannot buy a book unless you have a credit card issued in one of the supported countries.

Ordering Photo Book From iphoto

I am finished developing a photo book using iphoto. However, the book only has 13 pages, and iphoto tells me I cannot order a book without at least 20 pages. My book is two-sided, so if I one-side it, it will be more than 20 pages. I see where there are options for one-sided pages, but I cannot tell how to convert an existing project from two-sided to one-sided. It would be a hassle at this point to go outside iphoto and use an internet vendor. Do you know how to convert 2-sided book to 1-sided?

Move them in the page thumbnails so the even numbered pages are blank
And before you order preview your book - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference

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
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.
there may be differences in the book due to a new system

I have just ordered a photo book from iPhoto, do I not get an email confirmation?

I have just ordered a photo book from iPhoto but after it generates nothing happens, has it sent? Do I not get an email confirmation?

I solved the problem. Had nothing to do with Mac or iphoto. Problem must be my the internet connection to my provider.
Upload at my office worked without any problem. One problem solved, now i am aware with a lot of discussions with my providers helpdesk ;-)

Create / order photo books

Just received my photo book from Mpix. Looks fantastic. Sure would be a
lot easier if I could create and order these photo books from within LR
(similar to creating a web gallery) without having to export and use another
application. I look forward to the eminent release of the LR SDK so that LR
can be extended with this and many other useful enhancements.
Best,
Christopher

> Am I missing something here?
Yes, I think so. You claim every print company has it's own requirements.
I do not disagree. That's why the SDK is needed, so that each print company
may supply their own LR plugin. To create my Mpix photo book, I downloaded
the Mpix photo book application and used that. After the LR SDK is
released, rather than use company-specific applications, companies will have
the opportunity to develop company-specific plugins, thus allowing us to
work within LR.
Think about the vast number plugins for AE and Photoshop. Many of them are
fanctastic, and seemlessly extend the AE / Photoshop architectures. That is
why I eagerly await the release of the LR SDK. It will allow third-party
developers to extend the LR architecture, and each of us can pick and choose
which extensions / plugins we want to use.
Best,
Christopher

Re-order photo books

Does anyone know if there is a way to re-order additional copies of an apple photo book from my apple store account so I don't have to upload the file from aperture again?

Is there an answer to this? When I order photobooks (from other services, e.g.), I tend to order only one to see if it looks good in real life -- and then order more later. Is that possible with Aperture and Apple?

Ordering photo book

I am wanting to order a photo book from iphoto. I am not living in one of the supported countries. Does anyone know when or if this service will become available in Australia? Thanks.

Apple prints up to 100 pages. there is a warning i you try to add more.
if you want/need another size, choose "print book"... there you willget a dialog box with options to export the book in PDF, JPG or other form.
but some layout will be lost: full bleed double page spreads can only be exported in the PDF that goes to APPLE....
lastly, using standard sizes, even if you don't want to have the book ordered, following the procedure (almost) to the end allows you to review a PDF of exactly the potential apple book. You can then keep the PDF and abort the order. this will get you the full bleed doubles...
cheers

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.

HT204364 Help on Ordering Photo Book

I submitted a 62 page photo book for publication and after paying and, thereafter, gathering done, the order seems to get stuck in download at about the 1/2 way mark (according to Apple's completion bar graph; I know not necessarily accurate). Left it going 2x overnight and still stuck in the morning. Checked for updates to software. Turned compueter off and tried again. My internet speed is good. I have ordered photo books in past and orders were completed without a problem. Thoughts?
By the way, it seems ridiculous that I can't ask Apple these questions for free when I am spending money to purchase products from them (I have three books for holidays lined up). Is there a way when the problem is a purchase problem and not a computer problem?

Here are a some other tricks that helped users get their books ordered. Maybe one will work for you:

Re: book upload fails
Nov 30, 2013 3:02 PM (in response to pablo123)
Just got off the phone with apple support. If the photo book completes the assembly process but fails during the upload process the problem is in their overloaded servers.They just started a free shipping promotion for the holidays which has increased the traffic dramatically. I bought a calendar a week ago and it went right through. I'm going to try again during less peak times.
Next:
Here's a fix that worked for some users:
Make sure this checkbox is checked in the System/Sharing preference pane:
If it is, uncheck it and then recheck and try ordering again.
And lastly:
Quit iPhoto.
From the Finder menu bar, choose Go > Utilities to access your Utilities folder (or press Shift-Command-U).
In your Utilities folder, open Keychain Access.
Find the "NetServices" entry in your Keychain Access window.
Select the "NetServices" entry and press the delete key.
Reopen iPhoto and attempt to place your order again.
You should be prompted to enter your account information if you deleted the Keychain entry successfully.
After entering your account information, you should be able to complete your order.
Happy Holidays

Mac OS X does not offer a Clean install option. If by clean install you mean erasing the system, that is not recommended unless:
1. You bought a used/refurbished Mac and there is software on it without any accompanying discs, and it is older than July 20, 2011 in model release:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6413
Or if it is at or newer, then erase it if it has applications installed that would not have been prebundled with it and you have no CDs for those applications.
You don't want someone else's software keys, or accounts, or to be running unlicensed software. At and newer Macs offer a built-in internet restore for their software with a command-R boot that lets you erase the system with Disk Utility, and then install from the internet the latest operating system.
2. You have a hardware issue and want to eliminate possible software issues as the cause when troubleshooting a problem all at once.
Issues affecting a new install have to be isolated before you attempt it. Unless you know it is software or hardware, erasing may only mask other problems.

My computer freezes up when trying to upload photo book from iPhoto '11. This happens during the upload process.

My computer freezes up when trying to upload photo book from iPhoto '11. This happens during the upload process.
When this happens I need to close down the computer and restart.
Any ideas ?
I've got Mountain Lion running.
I'm on a 13" white MacBook with 8GB RAM installed.
I recently had a 1 TB hard disc installed at the Apple store.

can you preview it? -
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 that works fine and you still have problems boot into safe mode 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/

How can i create a photo book from 2 libraries easily?

This is my situation.
I want to create a photo album of my child for the past year for parents/grandparents etc from the photos on mine AND my wifes macbooks. Before iphoto 9.5 i would simply look at her shared library from my iPhoto and use hers and my photos to make a book.
Now there is no shared library in 9.5, so after doing my homework on how apple wants us to do this now, I started a shared iCloud photostream ('kid' 2013) and invited my wife to it. I started adding photos from my library, and she did the same. All good i thought, but no. Becasue the photo stream only sorts by 'date added' not date taken, and in fact I cannot even see the date the photo was taken in the photostream, it means making a chronological photo book from both our photo libraries has now been made impossible.
Anybody got any other ways to do this?

Create an album, and then select all photos in the Shared Photo Sream and add them to the album. In the album you can see the dates of the photos in the Info panel. Then sort your album by date, and create the Photo Book from the album, not directly from the shared stream.
