Pictures from iPhoto not showing up properly on iPhone 4s

With my iphone 3G I wanted my photos organized into groups so I could look through specific photos rather than a cycling through ALL my images. So I took some advice I found online and organized my photos into albums in iPhoto and had my iPhone sync the albums from iPhoto. I also upgraded my phone later on and all the photos worked fine for a while, but now it barely works at all. When I click on one picture, it will jump to another or show the image of a camera with a clock in the center. Some of the images which were clear when they were originally on the phone(i.e. when taken or downloaded) now appear really fuzzy as if they are still loading. On my computer the pictures still look fine, but on the phone they are a mess, and it seems like some pictures are in the wrong albums too.
Any help?
Using an iMac with Lion, iPhoto '09, and an iPhone 4S with ios5

First try
Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)
If that didn't help then delete the albums and sync them back again.

Pictures from iphoto not available in pictures folder

I have downloded pictures from my camera to iphoto 08. I have events & albums created. When I'm on other websites or even in Word (Office: Mac), I can't attach or insert a picture from here. When I go to my pictures folder, I click on iphoto library & either nothing happens (an iphoto icon comes up, but none of my pictures), or, when I'm in Word, clicking on iphoto library isn't an option (I can only click on photo booth). How can I make my personal pictures available to send as attachments?

There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
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.
To upload to MySpace or any 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 use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
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. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.

Pictures in iphoto not showing

I just purchased a new MacBook pro and transferred all my files from my 2007 MacBook. Everything worked well but now, there are many pictures in my iPhoto library that are showing up as grey squares. Sometimes, when I'm scrolling, I can see the picures for a second but then they go grey agan.
I've tried to rebuild my library but this didn't work. The pictures are still showng up okay on my old MacBook.
Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
You have corrupted your iPhoto library by not having enough free disk space for iPhoto to save everything - you should always have 10% of your total hard drive with a minimum of 10 GB of free space to assure safe operation of your computer -- Hopefully only your database description file was corrupted
Just to be sure tha tyou are using the correct library launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) key and use the locate library option and point to the iPhoto library on the external drive
If this does not fix it Do you have a backup? If you do this is the time to load it - if you do not it is a great time to start keeping one
Try rebuilding your iPhoto library - launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) and command (apple) keys - select all options
If that does not work download IPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - and use its rebuild option
If neither works you will have to create a new library - quit iPhoto and launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) key and use the create library option (create it on your external hard drive), check the iPhoto preferences and be sure that the option to split items imported from the finder into events is not checked and open the old iPhoto library and the originals folder and drag each folder in the originals folder to the iPhoto icon in the dock - this will recreate your events with the original photos - the edits, keywords, books, slideshows and other projects will be gone

Why are my photo stills from iPhoto not showing in my iMovie?

In the past (June 2011) I had no problems putting photos into my imovie project. Now, when I slip photos between videos, the Ken Burns effect is applied to the last frame of the video before the photo, skips another photo or two and repeats the KB effect on the last photo before the next video.

Raw files need to be opened and saved before the adjustments are applied. I have no clue what your "batch save" does.
A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).

Pictures from iPhoto on Mac to my iPhone?

Anyone knows how/if I can transfer/synchronize pictures from iPhoto on my Mac to my iPhone?

Yes you can. You do it via iTunes.

After upgrading to Yosemite (I don't have iPhoto anymore, only PHOTOS) my pictures will not import from my iPad or iPhone 5s or any picture from web, it shows "Database Error: failured to persist version"

After upgrading to Yosemite (I don't have iPhoto anymore, only PHOTOS) my pictures will not import from my iPad or iPhone 5s or any picture from web, it shows "Database Error: failured to persist version". Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Sorry,
Yes, the error message is exactly like that ("Database error: failured to persist version")
No photos will import at all. I use USB to import from iPhone 5s or iPad 2.
About the difference? iPhoto and Photos . Are there two softwares?
I also will like to merge and/or synchronize all my photos I had saved to iCloud backups, Macbook Pro, iPhone 5s and iPad hard drives using iPhoto. It's call iPhoto library. At one point I turned off streaming.
Thanks again Larry HN.

I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library?

I imported some 24P HD videos from my DSLR to Aperture but these videos do not show up in iMovie '09 for editing purposes. Although my previous 24P HD Videos from iPhoto '09 show up. Why can't I access these videos stored in Aperture library? I assumed that like the videos in iPhoto, I would be able to access the videos in Aperture through iMovie. Come on Apple! I am starting to get frustrated with your products here. And this is saying a lot when I have been using and loving apple products for the last 4 years.

Hi. My camera is a Canon 600D. And yes my videos are stored in the Aperture library and they are not referenced. Even then I tried to select all the videos in Aperture and clicked 'consolidate masters' and there was a messge that said all 'none of the files are referenced',... so they didn't need consolidating.
I also tried preferences> export> external video editor > choose > iMovie. And then right click on the video to edit with imovie. Even then the video didn't show up in iMovie. It seems like the only option for me is to import the videos directly to iMovie which means there will be two versions of the same file stored in my computer eating up space.
APPLE. What are you doing?

When I try to upload pictures onto iPhoto, it shows up, but it won't let me import my pictures. And when I want to close iPhoto it says "Photos being uploaded to iPhoto library, please wait to finish uploading," but I am not uploading anything.

When I try to upload pictures onto iPhoto, it shows up, however it won't upload. The "import" button, I can't click on it. It won't upload. And when I want to close out the window of iPhoto, it won't close, I get a message saying "photos being uploaded to iPhoto library," but i can't even upload. This has been like this since late April...

What version of iPhoto?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Copy pictures from iphoto 08 to sd card

Can someone tell me step by step how to copy pictures from iphoto 08 to an sd card using a card reader?

hi, is there a way to have the SD card appear directly in iphoto in a way that allows you to drag and drop photos into it the same way you might do so with an album? I tried doing this with the default format of the SD card and it would show up but not let me view the contents or copy photos onto the SD card. They I tried using disk utility to reformat the SD card as a macOS Extended device and now it doesn't even show up in iPhoto. The main reason I'm trying to do this is so that my father will have an easy way to transfer photos from iPhoto to his digital photo frame using the SD card. Any ideas would be much appreciated.

When I try to include a white and black photo in a iMovie the result is a black totaly black picture which does not show in the movie. Why? Can it be fixed?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Other than that, what version of iPhoto do you have? Assuming 09 or later try
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

How do I put just pictures from iphoto to idvd to make a dvd?

Okay. I had a lot of trouble today. I wanted to get pictures from iphoto to a dvd. So I did that by going to iphoto then share then burn. Well, that worked on my blu ray. The pictures would come up sorta like iphoto (the rolls and everything) But my videos did not work however. But I figured out that they were .mpg and they need converted. But I heard that what I did (using iphoto) won't work on reg. dvd players but for some reason it works on my blu ray. Anyways, I heard that using idvd will work. How do I get my pictures over to idvd and burn it to a dvd? I tried doing this once but the themes were what was messing me up. The pictures would show up in a theme and I don't want that just the pictures. Any advice, tips, etc would be appreciated!

Hi lace66
Welcome to apple discussions. You may wish to pose the very same question to the iPhoto Forum also since I'm not 100% certain if any of the following apples to iPhoto 6 => iDvd. It's really a question for that particular forum. It's been months since I've worked in earlier versions of iLife. However, w/in ilife'08 as well as the latest iLife version '09; you could do it easily like this:
click here
Essentially you simply select the photos you want within iPhoto, go to the top menu where it says "Share" => Send to iDvd. Or (another option) you could burn your photos directly one step down on the drop down menu where it says "Burn" (directly below "send to iDvd") if I'm not mistaken.
Hope this helps but if not just come on back.

Cannot import pictures from iPhoto into iMovie!

When I try to upload my JPEG pictures from iPhoto, I can successfully drag them into the storyboard, but they all show up as the same picture (the picture right before all of them). When I try to drag them into the workspace below the storyboard, I see the number of them (doesn't matter how many) in a red circle, not allowing me to drag them over from the browser.
I don't know what I am doing wrong. Can anyone help out with this?

Open the photo Browser in iMovie. Find your Album. Drag the icon for your Album into the iMovie Project.

Cannot import picture from iPhoto to set mail

I tried to drag a picture from iphoto to birthday greeting in mail but the picture in greeting is not opening up.
What am I doing wrong?

Have you managed to get it into an email but it shows as an icon rather than an image? If so, control+click or right click on the image and select 'view in place'.
If you are creating an email using Mail's Stationery feature you may want to save the image from iPhoto to the Desktop and then drag it from the Desktop into the template you've chosen.
