Photocasting:  Trouble receiving photos from friend's photocast

A friend send me a link to her new photocast. It opened up just fine in Safari and I was able to view all 24 photos. When I tried getting the photos in iPhoto, only 18 of the 24 photos showed up. The remaining 6 have the white dotted line around them with an exclamation mark in the center. I left my computer on for a couple hours, after it stopped loading the photos, thinking it just needed more time - but they were still missing this morning. I tried again,putting the url into the box in "Subscribe to Photocast" - but nothing happened. The information in the "Source" panel in iPhoto says Album title & 24 photos there!
I could not close iPhoto even after a couple of hours - it thought it was still loading the photos. I had to "Force Quit"
Any ideas or help?
Thank

The ! or ? turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Try rebuilding the database. Hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys and launch iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.

    I AM HAVING TROUBLE UPLOADING PHOTOS FROM PC TO IPAD. I GET SOME PHOTOS UPLOADED AND THEN TRY TO ADD MORE.. AND ALL THE PREVIOUS ONES DISAPPEAR! THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING. CANT I ADD NEW PHOTOS ONCE I  UPLOAD ANY!

    If you REALLY want to use the stock Photos (I wouldn't as it has major problems as is also explained both at http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/all-one-photo-viewer-roundup-70-price-drop-bes t-image-viewer and in the https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3812013?start=345&tstart=0 thread here - look directly at the first two messages), you need to ceate subfolders in parallel to the original ones. Then, the previously synched pics won't disappear.
    But, again, I do NOT recommend using the built-in Photos. Using third-party apps like Photo Manager Pro is the way to go until Apple fix the issues with Photos.

  • Receiving payments from friends

    I created an account with the sole purpose of receiving payments from friends to pay me back when I make a payment on everyones behalf for a soccer club our kids are in.  I do not ever want to receive payments for goods or services on this new account.  Is there a way to block those kinds of payments to make sure my friends are selecting the correct way to pay me.  I've already received two payments that got fees taken out of them because my friends didnt follow all my instructions correctly.

    No you can't block them. Personally i would ask them to do a direct bank transfer using online banking direct to your bank account rather than using paypal.     *************************************** I give up my time to help you so a thank you or kudos would be cool.
    Marking one of my replies as a solution would be appreciated if I sorted your problem.
     

  • Trouble removing photos from iPad

    I'm having trouble removing photos from my iPad2 running iOS 5.0.1. In iTunes I've told it not to sync ANY photos. When I first changed this it asked me if I wanted to remove the photos currently there, I said yes and they disappeared. But when it finished syncing they had reappeared despite the fact that it now claims I don't have it set to sync any photos. I don't have photostream enabled. I've tried syncing a couple of times, but no luck. Any ideas? (I searched the forums but everything I found was people who didn't understand how to use iTunes to manage iPad content...that's not my problem..) (also it is like 3 gigs of pics so I don't really want to delete them all by hand since there isn't a way to batch delete...)

    Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then select and sync an empty folder to the iPad and see if that removes them - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

  • Trouble emailing photos from iPhoto

    I'm hvaing trouble emailing photos from within iPhoto. I'm constantly getting this error message. I've checked the accounts and the usernames and passwords are all entered correctly. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

    That's been a problem for a number of users lately.  Go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, delete your email account there and then add it back from scratch. Then try again. 
    If that fails reset your mail client to Mail in iPhoto's General preference pane and use Mail.  Mail has stationary photo templates similar to iPhotos but also saves a sent copy of any emails your send.

  • I am having trouble deleting photos from iPad that we're imported from PC  how do I do this to free space on ipad

    I am having trouble deleting photos from iPad that we're ported from PC. Already deleted from PC but still showing up on iPad following sync

    Tap and hold your finger on the X
    You should get a message in some cases that it will delete your stored app data - say OK if you want to proceed
    The wiggle mode should stop with a press of the home button - not a hard reset
    Reset your phone and see if the behavior changes - there is no data loss - Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • TS3274 Having trouble transfer photos from iphoto to ipad mini.  Any suggestions?

    Having trouble transfer photos from iphoto to ipad mini.  Any suggestions?

    What problems are you having ? You should be able to sync photos by connecting and selecting your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders (or iPhoto albums/events) to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.

  • I have the system requirements for icloud, but can't recieve photos from friends who use a MAC (I have a PC).  Why?

    Why does my PC not receive photos from relatives who posted them through icloud from a MAC?

    Windows.
    I pay for it every month through a subscription, however, photoshop isn't 
    appearing in my menu on any of the computers which it was installed through 
    creative cloud. Nor does it appear in the menu as an app that I can
    download  when I access the files on creative cloud.  All of the other applications
    have an icon to download, but photoshop does not appear as an option. 
    If I can't use it...I don't want to keep paying for it.

  • How best to receive photos from PC users?

    How can I receive photos in Apple Mail from a PC user who says photos have been either attached or embedded in email? There is no evidence in his email of an attachment. Any guidance for me or that I can offer him would be appreciated. Thanks.
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Hi Jim
    The photos should just show up the same as if a mac user sent them. If they don't show up, it may mean either:
    1 that your friend forgot to attach them
    2 that your friend is behind a firewall that's been set up to strip away attachments (which is an annoying way of trying to stop the spread of viruses), or
    3 that you are behind a firewall that's been set up to strip away attachments
    There is one other possibility. In Apple's Mail, if the Junk filter is in training mode, and it thinks that the mail is spam, it may not automatically load the images. When you view the mail from your friend, does it have a brown stripe across the top and is there text saying something like "mail thinks this is junk mail"? If so, then there should be one button so you can mark it as "Not Junk" and another button to "Load Images".
