Photos in album do not appear in finder

I have run into a strange problem w/ iPhoto (version 2): I copied 96 photos to an album, but when I check the album in the Finder, it shows that there are only 78 photos present. There seems to be no reason I can think of that would explain why 18 pictures did not make the transfer. I noticed this problem when I uploaded the photos to be printed at Cost-Co--since I was uploading from the finder, only 78 of the 96 photos were printed. I've printed tons of photos before, and have only run into this problem now. (Previously, all photos in the album showed up in the Finder, and were uploaded.) I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has had this problem, and if anyone knows of any solution(s). Thanks.
12" Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.8)

To avoid this (and some other potential problems) see iPhoto Help, and search on "exporting photos".

I just want to organize my photos to albums and not appear anywhere else. Photos appear in Photos and no indication if they have been dealt with.

I want to load my photos onto my MacBook Pro, sort them into albums and not have them appear in other locations. If I go to Photos all of the photos in the computer seem to appear. I can't tell if they have been put in an Album or have been edited. Is there a simpler system that I can use.

iPhoto works similarly to iTunes. In iTunes, every track is in the Library and each playlist is a sub-set of the Library.
So, in iPhoto, every image is in the Library and each Album is a subset of the Library. So, your photos will always be visible in the Library and in any album you use them in. That - of course - means that any image can ne used in a multitude of albums, and use no extra disk space. So that shot of your son, daughter and their puppy can be in the Son album, Daughter album, Puppy Album and even a favourites album.
Photos and Events are simply two views of the Library - two doors to the same room as it were.
It's easy to find photos not in an Album - with a Smart Album:
File -> New Smart Album
Album -> is not -> any
and another will find Photos not editoed:
File -> New Smart Album
Photo -> is -> Edited.
As you edit a photo, or add it to an album, they will be dropped from the Smart Album.

Photo album does not appear on the web but does in a published folder

**** everyone,
My problem is the following: I started to create little webpage with iweb. At the moment it just consist of a photo gallery, one blog entry and one video. To test it I published itto a folder on my hardisk and the website worked perfectly. So I uploaded it to my server (I have no .mac account). When opening the site over the internet the start page looks perfect, as well as the video page but on the album page the album doeas not appear!!!
The URL is: www.voyage64.com just click on "Photoalben" (it´s a german page) and there is just nothing, There should be an album which also appears in the page published to a folder on my harddrive.
Another thing that does not work is the blog. When you enter "blog" you will see the list with one entry listed, that works fine on the web but if you click on that entry it tells you that the file was not found on the server but it is there, this also works on the published folder on my hardrive. The confusing thing is: I´ve another website on my server with a blog with more entries that just works fine.
Maybe it´s something with the RSS because I tested other stuff and whenever the RSS logo is visible in the adressfield in the browser something does not work. I actually don´t need any of that RSS stuff but there is no way to disable that.
Maybe it´s a fault with my server but I´m not a specialist in stuff like that.
So thanks in advance for your replies,
kind regards,
David

Hi all, I upgraded my MBP to Lion , but on the screen where i need to type my password, click on my photo and it does not appear the place for me to type my password and it stay stuck there. Can anyone solve this problem for me?

Hi all, I upgraded my MBP to Lion , but on the screen where i need to type my password, click on my photo and it does not appear the place for me to type my password and it stay stuck there. Can anyone solve this problem for me?

Reboot the machine holding Command and r keys down, you'll boot into Lion Recovery Partition
In there will be Disk Utility, use that to select your Lion OS X Partition and Repair Permissions.
After that is done reboot the machine and see if you can log in.
If not repeat the above steps to get into Lion Recovery, get online and reinstall Lion again, it will overwrite the installed version and hopefully after that it wil work.
Reboot and try again.
If not follow my steps to create a Snow Leopard Data Recovery drive, then option boot from it and grab a copy of your files off the machine.
Then reinstall all your programs onto the external drive like setting up a new machine, then use Disk Utility to erase the entire internal boot drive (select the drive media on the far left, not the partiton slightly indented) format Option: GUID , 1 partition OS X Extended and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the external to the newly formatted internal drive. Once that is finished reboot and disconnect the external drive.
Once you go that, boot into Snow Leopard and update to 10.6.8, use the AppStore and option click on Purchases and download Lion again and install.
Lots of work, but there is no Lion disks.

Thumbnails Not Appearing in Finder

I posted this in the Leopard forumn, but I haven't gotten any response. I hope someone here can help.
I am having a strange problem with image thumbnails not appearing in Finder. I am editing some very large TIF files on a Macbook that is running Lion. These images are edited on an external drive, and when I hook the drive up to my main iMac, which is running Leopard, the new images I have created in Lion do not have thumbnails. The only way that they will appear is if I open the images in Photoshop and just resave them on the machine running Leopard. This method poses a problem because each image takes about 5-8 minutes to open, and another 5-8 to save. I have hundreds of images and don't have the time to do that to each one.
Does anyone know what could be causing this problem?

I've tried repairing disk permissions, as well as deleting the finder plist file, and neither of those things work.

Document content do not appear in finder preview, quick look or cover flow

The contents of all types of appleworks documents do not appear in finder preview, quick look or cover flow on both of my computers. The generic AWKS logo appears.
Why does this happen and what can be done to correct this?
I have repaired permissions a number of times and have restarted the computer.

AppleWorks 6 was written before OS X & long before Leopard & Quick Look. There hasn't even been an update since January 2004. The ability to create the image for Quick Look likely will never happen.

Superdrive not appearing on Finder on my iMac will not burn JPG files

Superdrive is not appearing on Finder and in drive Utilities it will not burn JPG files - says doesn't recognize the file type. The more I am exposed to Apple the more they look like Microsoft. If the drive doesn't work with the IMAC then why the **** do they list it with the iMAC site?

all external usb optical drive readers and burners works
not just the superdrive if the device does not show in finder it's not working properly

Time Machine cannot back up to G-Drive slim which is connected, but does not appear in Finder.

my MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2013) using OS X Yosemite10.10.2 has properly connected G-drive Slim, but it does not appear in Finder;
On Screen pop up Warnings:
"Back up Failed Time Machine couldn't back up to "G-Drive Slim" " and
"Disk Not Ejected Properly Eject "G-Drive Slim" before turning it off."

Does the drive show in Disk Utility? Try a restart.

Try one of your other USB ports. Be sure to insert it with the plated fingers pointing upwards.

do you have a more recent backup and that's what it's saying you can restore from? it's possible that backup overwrote your previous one. in itunes on the computer go to edit > preferences > devices, and see what backups you have there

Photo albums do not appear

Hi everybody,
I have looked around the forum for this issue, and I didn´t get to find it so any help would be appreciated.
I upload my website to a non .mac account, and everything is ok, except for the IE users that can´t get to see it properly, the thing is that everything is ok except for the albums, the page appears with its design but the albums that link to my pictures do not appear, so it is empty.
Anyone has had this problem? , how did you solve it?, is it bc I am not usin a .Mac account and this feauture is only for .Mac accounts?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Rachael,
I have no ideas sorry... I hope someone else does...
I had serious problems (not just me, everybody else too) with Firefox version 2.0.0.10 but that issue was solved in the release of Firefox 2.0.0.11 only two days after the release of .10
Do you see them in Safari? Did you upload everything? (if on .Mac a 'publish all' instead of just 'publish' might help, uploading through an ftp be sure to publish everything, if not working when publishing to folder opening the files in the folder I don't know sorry)
Regards,
Cédric

Some albums don't appear in finder (Pictures)

For some reason not all of my albums from iphoto appear in my "Pictures" folder in the finder. About 3/4 do, but not all. I have made sure that I haven't used any odd characters, etc. Is there a way to ensure they appear. That seems to be the best way to get the photos into other applications.
Also, my "photos" folder under "pictures" in the finder will not open to show all of my photos. When I double click on it, iphoto opens. Is that standard?
thank you,

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
1. What version of iPhoto are you using? (iPhoto Menu -> About iPhoto). I ask as you're posting in the v7 (iPhoto 08 forum) and in this (or indeed v6 or v5) no albums appear in the Finder at all.
There is no way to make you albums "appear" in the Finder. Albums are virtual entities, there is no corresponding folder of images. An Album is an entry in the database.
That seems to be the best way to get the photos into other applications.
Not at all. Never access you photos via the Finder. Doing so risks damaging your Library.
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 iPhoto2GMail
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.
All of the above are faster and safer than rooting through the folders of the Library.
lso, my "photos" folder under "pictures" in the finder will not open to show all of my photos. When I double click on it, iphoto opens. Is that standard?
Yes. With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Unix Style Package File. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
