Returned from trip and downloaded several hundred photos. I photo will not allow identifying faces on most pictures. why and is there a fix

Returned from trip and imported several hundred photos to Iphoto from a Nikon 3200.  I photo will not allow me to catalog Faces on most pictures. Some randomly will accept Faces.  Key words and Descriptions work.
Why and how do I fix this?

As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import a few photos from your camera and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

  • Have downloaded the latest PhotoShop CC but will not allow me to use Perspective Warp, why?

    I am trying to use the latest tutorial about Perpective Warp. I have done the most recent download update today but when I go to edit, the Perspective Warp option is grayed out.

    Photoshop grays thing out when some condition does not allow it to be use.  The condition could be related to the current state of the active document, or related to hardware and software.  Like Perspective Warp requires a GPU and may also require some amount of VRAM.  Photoshop CC requirements state Video Adapter with GPU and at least 512MB VRAM.  Check you  Photoshop Preferences.
    Photoshop menu Edit>Preferences>Performance  GPU must be seen and enabled.

    BTW I have just discovered that iPhoto and its' libraries are still there, so I can go back but be left behind and frozen in time on this version if I do.
    Photos now take up 700Gb whereas it was 350Gb  #@!$#@!@#!@#
    Thanks

    That are all good points - but Photos is a completely new application. and it is only version 1.
    Continue to use iPhoto, girraween; the next update to Photos will probably add a few more features.
    iPhoto 9.6.1 is working very well with MacOS X 10.10.3.
    The migration let iPhoto installed and also your iPhoto Library will still work with iPhoto.
    If you did not uninstall iPhoto, it will still be there in your Applications folder.  And if you had updated to the latest version iPhoto 9.6.1 before you upgraded to MacOS X 10.10.3,  you can simply drag iPhoto back to the Dock from your Applications folder and continue to use it. Double click iPhoto and confirm, that you want to open iPhoto and not Photos.   It is not compulsory to use Photos, while it it still the first release. When you launch iPhoto, you will see a warning, that the iPhoto Library has been migrated to Photos, but simply click the "Open iPhoto" button.The library will still work with iPhoto. ()see: If Photos won't open a library that you already migrated - Apple Support
    If your iPhoto version is not iPhoto 9.6.1, you need to update it.
    See this User Tip:
    Usually it will work to reinstall instead of updating:
    Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
    The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.
    Meanwhile you may want to send a feature request to Apple using the feedback form. Apple - Photos - Feedback
    I hope, Apple will listen and add more features to Photos to make it usable for large Photo Libraries.

  • TS1398 In "Set Up" I try to select our secured WIFi router from the list of available networks.  However, it will not allow me to select it. This then prevents me from going to the next step. What do I do?

    In "Set Up" I have tried to select our secured WiFi router from the available list shown.  It is listed.  However, when I try to select it, it will not check off or remain blue when I lift my touch.  This then will not allow me to go on to the next step.  What do I do to connect to a secure WiFi router? I do know the WEP Key number but there is no place to type then in.

    The trial can only be loaded 1 time as far as I know. You could try http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, remove any left over parts of the Acrobat folder, and reboot. Then try an install again, but my guess is you will have to purchase Acrobat at this point.

  • My system needs internet explorer for a application I need to down load, however I need to down load the latest yahoo tool bar for internet explorer to work properly and firefox will not allow the down load of yahoo toolbar. How do I fix this?

    I have not used Internet explorer since downloading firefox and I need IE for a trading platform that I need to use. In order to get IE working I apparently need to down load the latest version of Yahoo toolbar, however when I try to down load the tool bar Firefox will not allow the down load of that file.

    Thank you so much, for once in my computer life I knew what the problem was, what caused it, why it was caused, what it did, what it made it do and most importantly how to fix it and to do it correctly and expeditiously. I can not Thank You all enough for all of the help!

  • I have a 2008 macbook and everything is to date except Adobe Flash player which I can no longer download. When i try, it will not allow me to push "install." Is there another product I can use or is there a way to install this? I am using Firefox 4.0 btw.

    For some reason my adobe flash player will not load or reinstall. I keep getting a screen from adobe that says quit or intall but there is no button for the install to push. Only the quit is useable. I want to be able to view video but can't. Does this have to do with Firefox 4? I have deleted multiple unable to be downloaded installs or misinstalls of adobe flash player. Help!

  • While downloading 3.6.4 with auto update, I needed to pause the download. It is now frozen & will not allow me to resume the download.

    You can NOT downgrade iOS.
    That said, millions people have updated to iOS 5 without experiencing the problems you report. Why don't you try some basic troubleshooting before you resort to drastic measures.
    Restoring from your backup will NOT revert the phone to iOS 4.
    First, try to reset all settings. This will re-set the network settings and clear any personalization (wallpaper, custom assigned ringtones, etc.) but you will not lose any data.
    Then, try a simple re-set. If that doesn't work, try restoring from your last backup. If that doesn't work, Erase all content and settings and set it up as a new device.  It's possible one or more of the apps you are trying to use

  • Replacement phone has iOS 7.2 backup from old phone is in iOS 7.1 it will not allow me to restore replacement phone to backup, anyway around this?

    Replacement phone has iOS 7.2 installed backup was created in ios 7.1 anyway to restore replacement phone with my backup files? I tried updating the software on the broken phone but it says it is up to date.

    You must mean that the replacement iPhone has iOS 7.0.2 since there is no 7.2 version, 7.1 is the current version.  If your backup was created with iOS 7.1 it will not restore to an iOS 7.0.2 iPhone.  If the iPhone will not update to 7.1 for you, take it back to the Apple store and have the genius bar staff update it so you can restore your backup.

    You're dealing with two different Apple ID's so that won't work and according to Apple, they cannot be consolidated.

    Thank you agian for trying to help.
    I should have looked closer at your system info on your OP. You're on 10.7 (I'm not) and apparently things are set up differently there. My apologies. I hope someone else will post here. If not, you should probably start a new thread in the 10.7 forum. Good luck to you.

  • Updated to yosemite and can no longer access iPhoto.  Will not allow me to see my pictures stored on computer???

    My children updated system to yosemite, but i am now locked out of iPhoto and unable to access my pictures.  Tells me i need to install and app, and when i go to store, it tells me this app is not available.  How do I regain control of my photo library....

    iPhoto did not come up in Spotlight and it was not in the applications folder and I did not delete it.  I also did not remove it from the dock, but it was gone. Thus, it is my assumption that the 10.10.3 update removed it.  If not, then it disappeared and Apple should allow you to get your old iPhoto back, but that also is now not available and I certainly did not remove iPhoto from the app store.
    I usually perform updates, especially point updates to incorporate security fixes. I have used Apple products for many years and this is the worst mess I have ever seen.  The new Photos application crashes instantly and iPhoto is gone. They could have at least left iPhoto alone for a few months, instead of removing it from my system and from the store.

  • When i try to open firefox i get a message that says Windows has encountered a problem and will notify when there is a solution. Then you can click on the explanation and it says DEP will not allow it to open. Can you tell me how to fix this?

    I was able to install and have an icon on my desktop. When i click on it it automatically pops a box up that says: Firefox has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Then it highlights an icon at the bottom to show what the problem is and it is DEP (data execution prevention. I tried a few suggestions there but it didn't work. So it said to see if there is a download version compatable with DEP

  • I am using Telerik Web controls Q4 2006 and noticed linkbuttons inside an ajaxified radgrid do not allow Response.Redirects within the ItemCommand event. Is there a fix for this?

    Technology Telerik radcontrols for asp.net Q4 2006
    An ajaxified radgrid that is wrapped around a radpanel and radgrid has property of EnableAjax = true, Response.Redirects do not work. So basically our whole site is broken.
    Is there a hot fix for this?

    Hi Charlotte,
    You don't say what your version of Windows you have. Assuming XP, go to Start | Run, type DXDIAG and click OK. Click the Sound tab and run the tests to eliminate a hardware problem first of all. If you don't hear anything, check your cables first of all. Also make sure "Mute" isn't checkmarked in your sound setup. You'll find that in Windows Control Panel.
    Which browser do you use? If you have Firefox 4, sign up to the HTML5 trial @ http://www.youtube.com/html5
    HTML5 is the latest video standard and doesn't require Flash player. Google is in the process of converting all its files to work with the new format. It may solve you problem. If you don't have Firefox 4, you can get it from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/
    IE8 doesn't support HTML5.
    To clean out your temp files, go to Start | Run, type: CLEANMGR and click OK. Click OK again to start the utility. Tick all the boxes except "Compress old files" because the latter takes too long, and then click OK. You can run this utility any time you wish by the way.
    The above steps will hopefully fix your problem. If not, post here again please.
