Re-importing library & Problems

Hi all,
First time writing to the iPhoto board. How y'all doin?
History:
I exported my original iphoto library from my ibook to an external HD (holding down the option button and since then I've bought an intel imac.
What happened:
I've tried importing my library "File">"Import Library" (I have over 12,000 pics) to my imac but it only organized it by year 2004, 2005 and forgot my albums, their names, the way they were put and placed.
Question:
Can I import my library from the ext. HD to my imac and have it match the external drive exactly???
btw... I have the newest iphoto (if that helps)

I exported my original iphoto library from my ibook to an external HD (holding down the option butto
Do you mean to say you copied the entire iPhoto Library folder over the the external HD via the Finder? If so, you only need to copy that folder back to the Pictures folder on your new Mac and launch iPhoto. No need to import into a new library from the folder on the HD. All you'll get that way are photos in the library, no albums, keywords, etc.

Intermittent import library generation failure building 64-bit binary in Visual Studio 2013

I have a 64-bit c++ project that randomly fails to build because the import library generation silently fails in the link step. I have scoured the "diagnostic level" log trying to find some hint at why the import library
fails to be created, but there doesn't seem to be any information.
It's pretty random. When it fails, I can do a clean build and everything builds. After a successful build, I can do another clean rebuild and see it fail again.
The 32-bit version consistently builds fine. I see the 64-bit problem regularly in any configuration (Release or Debug).
I'm running VS2013 Update 2 RC.
Any hints on how to debug this? Is this a known issue for which there is a patch?

Hi Anna, thanks for the reply. Yes, this does reproduce in MSBuild if you specify a rebuild. As mentioned previously, if you do a clean and build, even through MSBuild, the build succeeds every time.
There's no way for me to create a sample project. Our codebase is quite large and this doesn't reproduce for simple example projects.
There is no error message when the iTunes.lib import library fails to build. The import library is used in a dependent project and that fails in a way you would probably expect (complains about a missing .lib)...
Here's the relevant section from my diagnostic build output.

The missing library problem.

I understand that there's already a lot of threads about the sudden disappearance of iTunes libraries, however I'm typing this up because I'd like to point out in a bit more detail what I'm seeing happening to my computer, and maybe have a collective of what's going on. This issue has happened to me five times in the last two months since I've updated to iTunes 11. After searching on google I know the missing library problem has existed since the early 2000s; why this glitch has yet to be fixed 13 years later is beyond me. I have personally never had this problem until updating to 11, and seeing the many other threads on here this appears to me to be an issue with this version of the software more than it has been in previous versions.
Before I continue, I have tried the following to fix it:
Simply readded my whole library. It was only wiped again a few weeks later.
Completely uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes. That didn't work either, so it's not just an updating problem.
What I haven't tried
Changing where on my computer iTunes is installed. I have no idea where on the computer might be better or if it will change anything. I have iTunes installed on its default location on my local C: disk.
Importing the music directly from my iPod into iTunes. Can this be done? If so, how? Not everything on my iTunes is a store purchase, most of it is imported CDs and also amazon purchases too. So I don't know if the transfer purchases option works. While this wouldn't fix this current issue, I would like to know how to do this if possible since it would just be a quick fix whenever this happens.
What is happening:
So each time this has happened, what occurs is that like many other people, one day I open my iTunes and everything is in order. Then the next, for no reason, all of my libraries are gone but the music is still on my computer, organized in their files the way iTunes had them done so upon importing. I can't use the .itl files in the "previous libraries" folder because they have also been re-written. Upon opening them, even if their last save was on a day I know everything was in working order, opening them does nothing but give me the same blank default page.
What isn't mentioned in a lot of the posts regarding this issue, is the sudden crop of temporary files in the iTunes folder.
The ones that have cropped up for me personally are the following:
iT 1.tmp
iT 2.tmp
iT 3.tmp
iT 4.tmp
Temp file 1.tmp
Temp file 2. tmp
Those were not there the last time I used iTunes, and they're never there on the days I've used it before and it has worked correctly. However every time my library is wiped, these files suddenly appear without fail, every time. I can't open them, I can't do anything with them except delete them. I believe I remember reading somewhere that this might be an issue regarding with how the program is saving the progress of your library changing, and that the temp files are there until it can "officially" save what has happened to your library. While I didn't change anything in my library in the last couple of weeks, I'm assuming this also counts things like play count.
My own personal opinion
Seeing just how many threads with this issue are popping up, this leads me to believe that this isn't just a problem with my personal computer or my personal install of iTunes 11. These temp files also lead me to believe that as well. In other words, whatever glitch has existed with iTunes since the early 2000s is for some reason running rampant in version 11.
TL;DR:
Please developers, actually look at this library glitch within the program itself. It can't just be an individual user's problem because way too many people are experiencing it.

No worries. You've probably run into one the other threads I've posted to but I'll add my thoughts here anyway...
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be copied and renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to an earlier state. Look for a recent .tmp file that is similar in size to the .itl files in the Previous iTunes Libraries folder. If it has happened repeatedly you may want the earliest such file generated since the last iTunes upgrade.
If applicable, see iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
I've noticed more of these missing library posts of late and a common factor to most since I started asking is AVG Anti-Virus. It seems in some cases it might be at least part of the reason why the library file disappears. Try excluding the iTunes folder from any AV scanning process.

Can't get imported library items to appear on stage

Hello,
I am new here and I am trying to get my imported library images to appear on the stage. I am using the CS4 version and when I click on the library item and drag it to the stage, there is nothing there. It is just a blank canvas and it's like the image(s) are hidden behind the stage or something. When I do a Publish Preview, I can see the .swf file with all the images, but in the .fla, there is nothing showing but the text files, and then that is even hidden in a newly created file. I am not sure if I accidently turned something on/off that is preventing my images from not showing on the stage or what. I really need to find a solution to this problem because I need to create a Flash file for a project I am working on in one of my classes. Does anyone know what could be causing this? I have done Google searches and Forum searches to no avail unless I'm not using the right keywords in my search. I have downloaded every available update that is out there for Adobe and it didn't fix my issue. Thanks in advance.

No, this didn't work. When I went and viewed the same files on another computer, the .fla shows everything. I just may have to work on that computer for now until I can figure out why my images aren't showing up on this one. I'll compare the settings on both and and may just have to uninstall and reinstall the software to get it to work. Thanks!

Aperture 3.1 won't Import Library over Local Area Network

I have upgraded three Macs on an ethernet LAN. One is the "master" and I periodically Import its Library to the other machines to bring them up to date. This has worked fine since v. 3.0 came out.
With 3.1 I can't Import Library over the LAN. On the target computer I navigate to the "master" computer, select its library, hit go, and Aperture on the target machine does nothing for a few seconds and then hangs with a spinning beachball. I have to force quit.
I have made small test libraries on each machine and confirmed that I can't Import to any machine from any other over the ethernet. But I can use the Finder to drag a Library from one machine to another's desktop over the LAN--and then Import Library from the desktop works fine.
I've done all the usual: repair permissions, database, and eventually restore from Vault. I've reinstalled v. 3.0. Get Info informs me that all the libraries are 3.1. As far as I can see, nothing else is broken. LAN networking works fine for everything but Aperture.
Does anyone else see the same problem? Any suggestions?

Me too. Upgraded both libraries to 3.1, rebuilt both libraries to see if that would help ... but no ... no way I can get one to merge with the other over Wi-Fi. Used to work fine in 3.0. I suppose I will have to try with a FW cable and the MacBook Pro in Target Mode - hopefully that will work in the short-term.

Can you find the imported Library ? My system can't !

Dear People,
In making a first attempt to do an applet in JBuilder7 rather
than from the Dos prompt my imported library is not being found . Here are the steps I did.
1) deleted all the premade source code on the scrren and
keyed in my applet code "MakeBox.java"
2) went to Tools | Configure Libraries
I saw on the left "User Home " and under that i saw
"objectdraw"
3) under the class tab I saw:
[ C:/WINDOWS/jbproject/objectdraw.jar ]
4) at the Required Libraries tab I saw:
"objectdraw"
the error message I get when I try to compile the class is:
"MakeBox.java": Error : cannot access directory objectdraw at
line 6
below is the source code
Thank you in advance
Stan
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.applet.*;
import objectdraw.*;
public class MakeBox extends WindowController
public void begin()
public void onMousePress(Location point)
new FilledRect(30,150,30,20,canvas);

I don't know if this is your problem or not, but whenever JBuilder decides it doesn't like me I usually have to go do this:
1)Project Menu
2)Project Properties
3)Paths tab
4)make sure your working directory is right
5)get rid of the /test in the path of the second radiobuttoned option
maybe that will help, maybe not...its what I do and it usually work.

Imported Library - NoClassDefFoundError

Imported Library - NoClassDefFoundError
Hi
I created a shared library and imported it in my application using orion-application.xml
<imported-shared-libraries>
<import-shared-library name="amc.common" max-version="1.0"></import-shared-library>
</imported-shared-libraries>
When I run the application I get NoClassDefFoundError when accessing a class in the Shared library.
I Know the Jar is Ok as the application works fine when I build the .jar into WEB-INF/lib
When I check ClassLoader using system Mbean, I can see that the shared library is imported by my Web Application. So why it is failing to find the class ?
What else need to be done in the application to load the classes that are in the shared library ?
Aimey

Hi,
there is nothing specific that needs to be done on an application side. However, my best advise is to ask this question on the OC4J forum as I am not an expert in share libraries and known issues with it

Import & Library handling Question!

Is it possible to do the following 100% successfully?:
1. Import images from CF card into LR
2. cull in another program
3. create a new folder on hard drive & move all RAWs to be edited into this new folder
4. Import the choosen images to be edited into LR - from this new folder created on the hard drive (without them being linked ot the original import library when they were uploaded from the CF card)
5. send them out as small DNGs to editor
6. then receive the XMP files back in LR to update the RAWs with edits by dropping the XMPs ito the new folder that was created for images to be edited and let the RAWs update
7. save the updated RAWs that now have the edits applied from XMPs somehow (in RAW format still)
8. move onto Photoshop (ACR) to do any last touch-ups of my own, save as JPG, submit to client.
Thank you in advance!!!

As I said, there is no such thing as "small DNGs", maybe they mean "Lossy DNGs"? Perhaps you ought to confirm that's what they mean.
They edit my images and return them as XMP files.
Well, that's interesting. Lightroom offers no way to create XMP files from editing DNG files. Perhaps they have a plug-in or other way to do so. Technical correction ... they don't return the images as XMP files, they return the edits as XMP files
They instructed me to drag and drop the XMPs into the file folder that the RAW images are in and watch them update in LR.
This doesn't happen by itself. You would have to go into Lightroom, select the desired RAW files, and then issue the command Metadata->Read Metadata from Files
Once they are updated, they can get converted to JPG for client
Once they are updated, you can Export them as a JPG
What I want to know is, if I were to use LR to import and rename my files for me, save to one file folder on hard drive. Then cull the images manually, and create a "to be edited" fil folder - drag and drop the RAWs into that file folder. Can I re-import the files into LR from that new folder? ***Will LR recognize them as previously imported images linked to the orginal uploaded library, OR will LR link these reimported images to the "to be edited" folder that I created????
You are creating extra work for yourself. The idea of moving photos to a specific folder and reimporting is completely unnecessary here. Once they are in Lightroom, select the desired photos, assign a piece of metadata to those photos you want (color label, flag, keyword or whatever), and export as DNG for your editing service. No need to move the photos, and no need re-import. This takes you much less time than creating a new folder, moving the photos and reimporting.
Why are you even using Lightroom here, as you don't seem to need any of Lightroom's features. Why not use Bridge/ACR?

No Import Library option in iTunes 10

I just had iTunes throw the "locked library" error on me, and one solution I heard of was moving all db out of the iTunes folder and then re-importing 'iTunes Music Library.xml' into iTunes.
According to step 7 in the knowledge base article on Apple's support pages (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451) from last September, I was supposed to accomplish this simply by +7. Choose File > Library > Import Playlist.+
In my iTunes 10 this is not an option! I can backup, export, and organize, but not import. Wonder what the use of backup your db is when you cannot reimport it ... Any ideas on how to import the xml version of the db?

I really need to learn how to read and write some day.
I was focusing so hard on finding the option "Import Library", that I actually thought the KB article said just that in step 7. It was not until you said there was indeed such an option that I recognized the fact that it said playlist.
It did indeed work, but I still find it curious that they dumped the functionality concerning importing of +music libraries+ into the same option as the one concerning +importing of playlists+.
Anyhooow, thanks for pointing out the obvious. I actually needed it

Can't import library from another computer

I used to be able to sync my aperture libraries from my iMac to my MacBook Pro. I just would use the import Library/Project option and it worked perfectly. Now Aperture just hangs when I try to do it and I can't get it to work.
Does anyone have any ideas?

On the new laptop, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.

Ovi Suite 3.0.0.290 - Music library problems...

Hello,
Just bought a Nokia E5, looks to be a sweet phone so far...
Only, Ovi Suite is just annoying. Very slow on communicating with the phone (USB connection) and some big problems.
Impossible to delete music from the library ! How is that ?? And also the library takes ages to add a new folder.
Also, not seeing the playlist i've made on the phone ? Either on mass storage connection, in the playlist folder of the phone, nothing... But should be on a other threat.
Hope you can solve the library problem because it's quite annoying.
Thanks in advance for any answers.

@satari
Yeah, alright already!
We get that without you plastering this message over EVERY single thread dealing with issues of that truly useless and pathetic piece of software called Ovi-Suite.
Especially since the new version DOES NOT SOLVE ANY OF THE ISSUES AT HAND IN THE THREADS YOU MASS PASTED INTO!
Ovi-Suite 3.x still no longer syncs music, which IMHO is a basic function. Who on earth wants to be forced to manually update the phone playlists and songs whenever songs are added on the PC? That is beyond backwards.
Hello? It's 2011, not 1991.
Ovi Suite 3.x still randomly refuses to add songs to the library on the PC (e.g. it skips several songs from an album folder, yet they play fine when added to the phone manually outside Ovi-Suite), an issue that can only be corrected by deleting the entire library on the PC and recreating it. A "repair library" function is notoriously absent.
I'd like a so called Smartphone to make tasks easier and more comfortable instead of harder.
Newer Nokia handsets may be slightly less bad, but the N97 with Ovi-Suite is still the smartphone/desktop combo from hell.
The fruit phone/ITunes combo is sadly restricted by the greed and desire to control everything of Apple, but at least the products work reliably and consistently for the most part. The same is true for 'Droid devices.
Ever seen a black lemon? They turn black when they rot. My N97 is black. 'nuff said

Older itune version 10.6 trying to reinstall, library problem?

I reinstalled older itune version 10.6 on Win7 after I reformatted the drive.
1. Now i have a library problem? the itunes will not open and i get a message "itunes library.itl" is from newer pgm. how can i work around it?
2. i want to restore my itunes music library like it was before with the old libray i had from my backup, how can i do that?

your serial number is for an upgrade version. you need to prove you have a qualifying upgrade product.
after you enter your upgrade serial number and the installer failing to find a previous version, you should be given the option to choose the previous version and enter its (the older version's) serial number.
if that's not working, what version are you trying to install and why didn't the above work?

Aperture 3 - Error Importing Library

Hi folks!
My Macbook's hard drive crashed so I had to reinstall OSX 10.6 and use the time machine to bring the stuff back.
After reinstalling everything I also updated OSX to 10.6.7 and and finally updated Aperture to 3.1.2 via App Store.
Then I tried to open the Aperture 3 and this happened:
Error Importing Library
Now if I go to File/Switch to Library/Other/New... there is a new library called "Aperture Library (current default)" (Version 3.1.2) including zero versions and masters.
My old library is automatically renamed as "Aperture Library_Original" including 17xxx versions... (Version 3.1.1)
I've tried to rebuild the library etc etc but it won't do it and gives the same Error Importing Library error all the time.
Now I even reinstalled everything again, installed 10.6.6 and now my Aperture is also 3.1.1. Still the same error comes..
Do you guys/girls have any idea what to try next?
Thank you in advance!

Oops, not sure whether using References or Managed.. But I would bet that Managed..
Those other 2010 folders are from the time before Aperture 3, I purchased Aperture about 2 months ago via App Store.
Default Picture folder contains Aperture Libraries, iPhoto library, Photo Booth folder and few of those random 2010_ picture folders.. Don't even know why those are there anyway..
but but.. I'm now already starting to think that I've almost all of the pics in iPhoto..
If in Finder I right-click my old Aperture Library and choose "Show content" (or something like that, my OSX is in Finnish) - I'm able to find those few new albums and their photos which are not in iPhoto.. If I just copy those to iPhoto and Import it again.. Naturally I would loose the project structure I've created in Aperture and few edited photos.. but at least I would get my Aperture back again and forget that this incident ever happened..

Import library

I try to import a library in aperure, it seems all working ok but the library is not imported and i have no masters in file library

but the library is not imported and i have no masters in file library
Do you import the library with "File > Import > Library"?
When you import, are you prompted, if you want to "merge" or to "add"?
If you do not see this prompt, try to add an extra image to the library that you are importing, an image, that is also contained in the library you are importing to. Adding a duplicate image usually will force the "Add-Merge" dialogue to appear. Then select "Add" and not "Merge".
