Problem on Lightroom4, Aperture but not on iPhoto or preview.app

Hello,
I've got a strange problem and can't find any answer when searching on Google.
I moved my photos (JPEG) from iphoto to LR4 and aperture.
The exported file from iphoto looks the same in mac preview.app than in iphoto. However, once imported in LR4 or aperture the quality is awful (lot of noise).
Strange points include:
- If I export back the image from LR4 and aperture, it looks once again just ok with the preview.app; so it's not some compression happening when I import the photos in the new tools.
- If I take a screenshot of the photo looking awful in aperture or LR4, the screenshot looks ok on preview.app...
- Same problem for photos in sRGB or Adobe RGB.
Can someone give me an hand on this?
Many thanks,
Florian

How is your double-screen setup? What goes on which display? And have you tried to switch the two displays?

Computer uploads photos to Aperture and not to iPhoto

I recently bought Aperture. Now when I add photos they show in Aperture but not in iPhoto. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for comments above. I checked again looking at the "Photos" view of the library as opposed to the "Events" (iPhoto) or "Projects" (Aperture) view. What I found is that in the Photos view I can see the same in both iPhoto and Aperture. They are using the same library| But whereas in Aperture recent projects are added near the bottom in approximately (but somewhat randomly) date order, in iPhoto the new events are added right at the top before my earliest 2003 events.
Any ideas on why that may be and how to correct?
Everything is latest version as my MacBook Pro died recently and I replaced it in May with a new desktop iMac.

I can see a photo in Finder but not in iPhotos

Sorry to be a pain, i am sure the answer tothis question is simple, but as a new convert to Apple i am not familiar with the wrinkles.
i can see a photo in some view but not in iphoto.
Finder gives the file name, all details about the camera etc and even say it is in the Library :- Users/rosedayjo/Pictures/MacB iPhoto Library/Originals/2010/Last 12 Months
But of course when i go to the directory to which it refers i cant import this photo from there to reestablish it in the library because it says it is already in the library!.
So,
1. how does a photo seem to be in a library but is not.
2. how to i get to the file to return it into the library,
All help welcome

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, faces and places 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.
Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.

Full page prints from iPhone but not from iPad using photo app with AirPrint ?

Full page prints from iPhone but not from iPad using photo app with AirPrint ? iPad only prints 4x6 on full size paper. It's an HP 8600.

I also have this problem printing photos from an iPad to an Epson WF-2540 printer. It prints only 4x6 and without border (so print starts at extreme top left corner of paper). Borderless printing is not selected on printer. Printing a square photo just crops to 4x6 size.

If the calendar is on iCoud.com, all you would need to do to get it on your phone is go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, sign into your iCoud account and turn Calendars on. The iCloud calendars will then download to your phone.

Urgent help needed with iPhoto/pdf preview for book order - mysterious pixelated areas show on PDF but not in iPhoto

Hello. I ordered an iPhoto book last week to give to my parents for their 50th wedding anniversary. Tonight, I just checked on the order status and found that my book is cancelled. I received no notification about it, and all I could do was fill out the online form, so customer service will get back to me on Monday via email (if I'm lucky...). There is no telephone number for me to call about this. I decided I'd best do some searching to try to figure out what had happened.
I had thought that the preview I saw in iPhoto was the preview of the book. I found out I was wrong. So I created a PDF preview of the book and found some craziness that I don't understand. In iPhoto (and any other program, i.e. PhotoShop), my photos are fine. They are mostly TIFF format and high resolution with a few high res JPEGs. However, when I view the PDF, there is a band of black and white pixelation about 1/2-inch across the bottom of some pages - not all. The photos in that area are messed up in that band zone. The other photos are totally unaffected. This affects both TIFF and JPEG photos, and both black and white and color.
Has anyone else had this problem, and what was your solution? I would be extremely grateful to anyone for advice or information about this! The anniversary party is less than a week away and I'm beyond my limit of stress right now...

Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new library. Import enough photos for a book (use some of those in the current book) create a new book and preview as a PDF. If you don't see the problem then it's limited to your library which may be damaged. If that's the case make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot and the option to rebuild the small thumbnails.
Click to view full size
If you get the same problem in the test library then log into another user account on your Mac, create a test library and try it there. If the problem shows up there a reinstall of iPhoto is indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,

If you don't encounter the problem in the other user account then it's something in your account that's the culprit. Post back with the results.

Some photos in iphoto library, but not in iphoto

iphoto 5, i have random photos in various folders that used to show up in iphoto, but after a plist issue and rebuild (which mostly went fine), these photos don't show up in the iphoto library or app. as an example, i have no photos showing up for september through december, 2003, although the iphoto library folders in finder show probably 150 pictures during those months. they're just not visible via iphoto, and in fact the filter-by-calendar function just shows those months totally grayed-out. i can't 'add to library' on these pics, because iphoto tells me the originating folder is invalid (meaning, i assume, that it won't 'import' from the exact folder it's going to import into, or something like that. any ideas on how to just tell iphoto to find all the non-duplicate images already in its own folders, and make them part of the 'library'? thx.

I'm having the same issue. I just got a new G5 tower and Leopard. I had a G4 iMac Flatscreen. I imported my iPhoto app.. got rid of plist, press option when I started iPhoto.. so it asks me to choose a library, I chose my iPhoto Library. I have well over 5000 pictures in there, but iPhoto only shows my first 167 pics! Hmmmm???

Hello I thought that I had ordered a photo book in aperture but not sure that it has gone through as I have not had a confirmation email,

Hello I thought that I had ordered a photo book in aperture this morning but not sure that the order has gone through as I have not had a confirmation email,

t I am currently in canada and trying to get the book sent to Australia. Im not sure if apple is picking up my location and that is having any affect on it?
The AppleID you are using to buy the book, must be tied to the location of the store where you are ordering the book from. Is your AppleID associated with an australian address? And are you placing the order at the Australian store? The Canadian store will not shiptoAustralia, see these policies: http://www.apple.com/internetservices/terms/sales_policies.html
Also set the "Region" in the language & Text preferences to "Australia", while you are ordering.

SFTP/FTP Proxy Problems - Works for DMZ but not for Internet Hosts?!

Hi together,
we have a strange problem with our TMG Proxy, some infrastructure informations first
So we have the Client LAN with the IP range 192.168.11.x which is routeable to Server LAN 192.168.3.x but not to DMZ LAN 192.168.200.x.. The TMG is a 2 Node Array, 192.168.200.5 is the DMZ VIP. TMG DMZ IP Adress (192.168.200.5) and physical Adresses have
an NAT relation to one Public IP. HTTPS Inspection is active. We dont use (and dont want to) the TMG Client component.
When i use WinSCP, Putty or Filezilla and connect to a DMZ LAN Host (192.168.200.x) with "HTTP Proxy" (192.168.3.108:8080) everything is fine, it works like expected...
When i connect to an Internet Host it fails regardless which protocol i use - ftp, sftp or ssh. The error i get is
"The token supplied to the function is invalid."

Hi Keith,
ok i found out the problem is https inspection is enabled....
- when i disable https inspection for source, same problem
- when i disable https inspection for destination, problem solved
the root cause why this worked is we had https inspection disabled for dmz destinations.
there is no direct route relation between the lan and dmz.
why is source exception not working in this?

Email @me and gmail work fine, but not from iPhoto

e-mail works fine, checked all connections, PWs etc., but not when sending photos from iPhoto; error message is :The email server didn't recognize your username/password combination. I've checked both in email accounts and reset both.

What are you settings in the iPhoto Preferences > General?
If you have set "Email photos using iPhoto", change this to "Email photos using Mail". This works more reliably.

When I upload pictures to my Air, they end up in a Pictures folder but not in iPhoto? How can I make the folder contents automatically go to iphoto?

I recently had to get a new hard drive installed on my Air. Now the contents of the Pictures folder are not in iPhoto. This never happened with my old hard drive. What do I need to do so that my pictures automatically go to iphoto. PLUS, there are now two Pictures folders....

List the contents of the two Pictures Folders?

Event in iTunes but not in iPhoto

I use iTunes to sync photos in iPhoto with the iPad.
In iTunes there is an event with 0 photos.
This event is not seen in iPhoto.
When I sync now with the iPad, this event with 0 photos is on the iPad.
How can I delete this event which I can only see in iTunes and not in iPhoto?

Indeed. Spoke to support last night and they had me do that. Still not working. I'm convinced it's just a bad download and will call them again to see if they will just let me try it again.

D810 images not displaying properly in preview app

So when I open an image like something I took from Photo Booth from Finder in Preview app, it loads fine. However, when I open a high res image JPG from my Nikon D810, the image loads initially, then quickly blanks out to all white. If I use the magnifier tool, it does show me magnified portions of the image, but the whole image won't show. Is there a maximum size limitation with preview app?
BTW, I don't think this repro'd before I updated to 10.10.3 (was 10.10.2). Is this an issue with Apple decommissioning iPhoto?

You could try some of these options here.

Lightroom 4.1 exported JPEG files are not recognized by Apple Preview App

I just started using Lightroom 4.1 Trial version (coming from Aperture). I exported JPEG versions of some images using an ICC profile. On my iMac running Lion 10.7.5 the pictures do not show a thumbnail, the file on the desktop just shows "JPEG". I could not open the file with the Preview App, but I am able to open it with DPP (Canon software)? Also the file shows that it has 0 x 0 dimentions when I click Get Info even though it is about 25 Megs in size?
The message I get is
"The file “Edit-739820120223Canon EOS 7D.jpg” could not be opened.
It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize."
Does anyone know why this is hapening?
Is it a know issue between Adobe and Apple?
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks for help in advance.

25MB is quite a large filesize for a JPG, and this might be either quite a lot of pixels saved at a very "high" quality (not very much compressed), or it may be an extremely large number of pixels saved with medium compression.
While the technical spec of the JPG format imposes an absolute limit on maximum width and height pixel dimensions, some software employs a lower limit above which it considers the file to be invalid. Different programs, different limits, sometimes.
I have encountered this (for example) with pano stitched images using the full resolution of a large number of component shots - where JPG output could not be made, or if made, could not even be viewed as a whole by my standard image viewer (though TIFF was still OK even at still larger sizes).
If Lightroom has been set to a large printed size AND to a high ppi resolution, it is easy to get into very high numbers and very large output files. One should IMO at least question the utility and benefit of using very high ratios of upsampling from a standard digital photo - which may happen in some cases as a result of using the same output settings regardless, when spreading the same data across both small and large scales. If the file that was imported into LR really does provide an unusually high number of pixels expressing lots of detail, then that will better deserve such a capacious output file. Otherwise, each part of the file may merely show a very highly detailed representation, of a very blurry nothing-much-in-particular.
If the JPG has exceeded the viewer's size limits, a reported width and height of 0 may represent an error message, in effect - not actual reality.
regards, RP
