Problem import to iPhoto when upgraded to Lion!

Hello!
I've upgraded to Lion and now there is a problem when I try to import new photos to iPhoto!
When I drag a photo to the library it seems to go to the library but when I restart iPhoto it is gone...
I've pressed alt when I started so I got the option to create a new library and in the new labrary I created there was no problem...
I can of course reimport all my photos but I have done so much work so that I don't like to do :-)
I have tried to reinstall iPhoto also!
Please can someone help...
PS. The photo that I try to import i found in the master and thumbnail folder but is not shown in iPhoto when I restart as I mentioned above so there seems to be some linking problem...
Jan

Oh I found a solution in the forum that solved my problem... I write how I did so maybe someone else could be helped :-)
If you hold down alt (option) and cmd key you get the option to rebuild your library... I choosed both the first and the last option (1 and 6) and now it works....
Fantastic!

I have Iphoto '09, version 8.1.2 (424). I am having an identical problem. All my pictures are imported into Iphoto when I downloaded them from my camera. Until recently, I thought that the pictures were actually saved in the library. Since I need to crop my pictures for the web, and Iphoto doesn't do that, I purchased Photoshop Elements to do that. To my surprise, when I try to get a picture from Iphoto to Photoshop, it can't be done. That was when I realized, after wasting a lot of time, that the photos are not in the Iphoto library.
I started naming the pictures on Iphoto so I had a recognizable file name to open on Photoshop. Couldn't find it. I looked in the Backup folder and the Transfer software folder (I have a Nikon camera), and the names I entered in the Iphoto display, could not be found.
When I am trying to upload a photo to the web, I get the Finder folder showing with an active folder called "Photos" under "Media", which only displays Iphoto and PhotoBooth. This is a folder name that I cannot find in my HD anywhere when I look for it. If I edit a picture with Photoshop, I am not going to save it back to Iphoto (not sure whether it will work properly). How do I get my folder of edited photos to show when I want to upload a picture to the web?
Where (the name of the folder) do I find the pictures I see displayed on the Iphoto library, including any name changes, keywords added, and so on?

When upgrading to Lion from SL, is it possible to grow the partition?

The partition in which Snow Leopard resides needs to be larger. Is it possible when upgrading to Lion to make it bigger? Is there another way to grow the Snow Leopard partition w/o migrating to Lion?

You have 4-5 internal drive bays.
Extra drive sleds are also sold so you can swap out drives (powered down of course, no hot swap).
Lion creates a recovery partition - and if you install Lion to its own drive it will be fine, then Setup Assistant will run on first restart and import your files.
There are a few more things to look out for on Mac Pro generally, software, drivers, and hardware.
As for using 20%, 200GB, what some people do is move all the non OS/Apps items to a 2nd media/data/user account hard drive.
Limiting the OS to the outer 25% insures reduced seeks and that it uses the outer faster tracks.
If you use RAID, that is another concern.

SuperDuper will optimize your folders and such, but it won't copy a recovery partition.

When upgrading to Lion, will the documents, photos etc get wiped off..?

When upgrading to Lion, will the documents, photos etc get wiped off..?

All it does is update the OS.
Which in no way implies that you don't need a backup prior to upgrading. While extremely unlikely, anything can happen in the process.

Do i lose files when upgrading to Lion?

I am preparing to upgrade to Lion fromsnowleapard, i don't have a back up, but my question is:
Do I lose files when upgrading to Lion? I have microsoft office for MAC 2011 installed and files for garageband which I realy don't want to loose!

If you have files you don't want to lose, you should back up your system regardless of upgrading or not. Buy an external drive and clone your system or use Time Machine to back it up.
The normal Lion upgrade won't delete your data if things go correctly, any hiccups and you'll need that backup.

Problem with Dreamweaver CS4 after upgrade to Lion

I am having a problem after upgrading to Lion, with my Dreamweaver CS4 . When I try to use the bold button the text completely dissapears from the screen in design view The text is still there as it shows up in preview and also shows up in code view. Has anyone else had similar problems since the upgrade? and is there going to be a fix for it.

There are a number of known compatibility issues with Creative Suites and Lion

Can't see your specific issue mentioned though.
Perhaps report it to Adobe via the Bug Report form giving full details

Problems with extrenal drive after upgrade to Lion

Hello,
after upgrading to Lion last week I am experiencing some problems with my LaCie 1 TB FireWire (800) external drive.
The problem is not that big however. When I delete files on the external drive they do not appear in the Trash Bin.
However when I unmount and again mount the partitions using the Disk Utility the deleted files do appear in the
Trash Bin. The external drive has 3 partitions: 2 X Mac OS X Journaled and one FAT. The above described problem
appers on all partitions. I performed repair and verify to all partitions but Disk Utility says that everything is OK! Any idea ?
P.S. With Snow Leopard I have never experienced such problem.
Thank you!

Speed reduced by disk malfunction: 339,474, er make that 340,239, er make that 341,327....
should I stop it or keep going??!!!!

HT2506 Is there anyone else who is having problems printing with Preview since upgrading to Lion OS X?

Since upgrading to Lion OS X, I have not been able to print any of my documents that were created in Adobe PDF. All calls to customer support have been a bust.
When I try to print anything it comes out looking like this:
Apple PREVIEW team!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi Linc...
Here is a copy of your prior post to me on a different forum...
Still no resolution...

Re: Anyone having problems with Preview since upgrading to Lion OS X? When using a pdf form that allows multiline text, I am finding that the printing is completely illegible. The lines are stacking on top of each other.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, selectHelp from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Note: If you’ve activated FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Did all of that yesterday, with the Apple Representative on the phone, and nope, still a problem...it was kind of exciting, really, they kept going up and up the tiers of support until I got disconnected...Fortunately I had the email address of the gentleman who was helping me so that I could email him back and let him know that we got disconnected...as you might imagine, he still has not emailed me back. They were able to receive a copy of the form that I use for charting and try it in their facility on their computers, so we know:
1- it is not just my computer.
2- it occurred only after installing Lion OS X, not sure if they have tried it on Snow Leopard, but that's what I would have done if I was them...assuming that somewhere in Apple someone has not upgraded to Lion.
3- it is not just my software.
I think the problem is with the newer iteration of Preview not communicating well with the Adobe .pdf. probably some line of coding that needs to be written and insertedinto their program for multiline text.
:-) Thank you for your help!

Problems with address book after upgrading to Lion.

I have lost all my contacts and if I try to add a new contact it's gone after I close and reopen the address book.
Same thing if I import for example my gmail contacts.
But there is more. If I add a new group I can't edit the new, so it's stuck as 'untitled group' (and gone if I quit the address book and reopen it).
..and If I add a new contact I can't edit it once it's added. I simply don't have the edit button.
Someone having the same trouble? Or any suggestions how to solve it?
Thanks!
(So this is after upgrading to Lion and with the new address book 6.0)

I'm a super loyal Apple customer for over 20 years. But I have to say, even though Apple has unparalleled customer service, their responsiveness to software issues is non-existent.
I had a problem with iMovie a couple of years back that involved 40 hours of hard work for a client, only to have all my work lost due to a software bug. Many, many others had the same issue. Apple never acknowledged the issue. I doubt that they will acknowledge this issue.
That's shameful.
I email to various groups, including a local residential group to which I add or subtract residents that move in and out of the neighborhood. AddressBook is now totally useless because I can't a new resident to the existing group! AddressBook 6 has been out how many months now? Not a peep from Apple with this issue!

Problem of web service when upgrading to Flex 3

Hi,
We got a problem when upgrading our application from flex 2
to flex 3. The same webservice call code returns different results.
In Flex 2 it works properly but in Flex 3 it only returns partial
data. There is no fault or error returned in Flex 3. Here are the
major code:
In IssueDelegat.as:
public class IssueDelegate
private var responder : IResponder;
private var service : Object;
private var model : IssueTrackerModelLocator;
public function IssueDelegate( responder : IResponder )
this.model = IssueTrackerModelLocator.getInstance();
this.service =
ServiceLocator.getInstance().getWebService("jiraWebService");
if(!model.isWSDLLoaded){
service.loadWSDL();
model.isWSDLLoaded = true;
this.responder = responder;
public function getProjectsNoSchemes() : void
var call : Object =
service.getProjectsNoSchemes(model.loggedInToken);
call.addResponder(responder);
model.lastWSRequestTime = new Date();
In LoadProjectsCommand.as
public class LoadProjectsCommand extends SequenceCommand
implements ICommand, IResponder
public function LoadProjectsCommand()
public override function execute( event : CairngormEvent ):
void
var delegate:IssueDelegate = new IssueDelegate( this );
delegate.getProjectsNoSchemes();
public function result(event:Object) : void
var model : IssueTrackerModelLocator =
IssueTrackerModelLocator.getInstance();
model.projects = event.result;
for each (var proj:Object in model.projects){
if (proj.key == JiraClientConstants.PROJECT_KEY){
model.selectedProject = proj;
break;
The following fields are supposed to be returned in
"event.result" and it does in Flex 2, but in Flex 3 it only returns
<description> field:
<description xsi:type="xsd:string"/>
<id xsi:type="xsd:string"></id>
<issueSecurityScheme xsi:type="ns138:RemoteScheme"
xsi:nil="true"/>
<key xsi:type="xsd:string"></key>
<lead xsi:type="xsd:string"></lead>
<name xsi:type="xsd:string"></name>
<notificationScheme xsi:type="ns138:RemoteScheme"
xsi:nil="true"/>
<permissionScheme xsi:type="ns138:RemotePermissionScheme"
xsi:nil="true"/>
<projectUrl xsi:type="xsd:string"/>
<url xsi:type="xsd:string"></url>
Are there any major changes on the web service in Flex 3.
Thanks for your help!

Problem importing my iPhoto library

Without going into too much detail I deleted my iphoto library and am trying to import a copy from my time machine. Have tried several times, various back up dates. I click on iphoto. It seems to be reinstalling well, even goes through a rebuilding process. But when it is all done I have all of my events with the same cover pic, and when I scroll over that pic, there are my pics behind it. But when I open the event in some the pics are there (along with several duplicates of that cover shot). In some of the events the pics aren't there, but when I double click on one of the duplicated pic, the pic that should be there appears. I know, sounds very confusing. I am thinking there is a proper way to import the iphoto back up, or a way of fixing the library once it is imported. As you may imagine, I am panicing, as it is over 10 years of photos. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to respond. I have done what you have suggested. It gives me a notice that library needs to be rebuilt. I say ok, and end up with the same. I have tried from 2 different back up dates and get exactly the same. I have deleted anything with a refrence to iphoto library from computer before initiating back up, so all that remains is the iphoto app. Any other suggestions.

Anyone had problems syncing iPod Classic after upgrading to Lion?

I upgraded to Lion over the weekend and eventually got all the associated software updates finalised last night. I tried to sync my iPod, but couldn't. So I reset factory settings, which usually works a trick if there's a problem. That worked - it's now empty. I then set about trying to reload it. No joy. Over the last seven hours, I've had several, conflicting, failure messages, the last being Error 13010. I can't find that error message anywhere. I'm getting a bit upset, and less and less competent. Anyone got any bright ideas?

Perhaps this older thread can help regarding the 13010 error.

Problems importing with iPhoto 5

I am having problems importing photos from my Sony DSC-T1 camera.
The import process is very inconsistent. With the first attempt at importing maybe 50% of the images have horizontal lines with color shifts. I will delete the bad imports and start the import process again.This time, of the original bad imports, maybe a third of those will import correctly. The rest will take another two or three import attempts before they import cleanly. In addition new photos will show up between imports that weren't there in the original import.
Help! Whats going on? Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Hi mhdubi,
I just read this article and even though your camera is not listed as one of the ones affected, it could still be your problem.
