Since upgrading to Maverick my iPhoto does not consistently download my Nikon or my Canon camera photos.

Since upgrading to Maverick my iPhoto does not consistently download my Nikon or my Canon camera photos. Occasionally it will recognize and download photos, most of the time though it hangs in "loading" mode with nothing downloaded. I've unplugged, replugged numerous times, tried a different USB port, tried the two cameras so it's not the camera or line that's the issue, turned the computer off, turned iphoto off, turned everything else off and stil nothing. I need my photos for my work and can't get to them, this seems to be an issue with Maverick AGAIN!!! Is there a fix? HELP! Thanks!

iPhoto Version 9.5.1
Thank you for your help Terence. I had 140 photos on my Nikon, none were viewable in iphoto, in Image Capture 5 were viewable, 135 weren't. I tried importing one to my desktop but it remained static and didn't move over. I just deleted all the photos on my camera, took a fresh photo and after waiting a good 4 minutes finally uploaded to both iphoto and Image Capture. As this took so long for one photo I'm wondering if the memory in my computer would impact the speed. I have 350GB used and 150GB left
By reformat the cards do you mean the flash card in the camera? I don't know how to do that, it's less that 6 months old.

After upgrading to Mavericks my iMac does not see Sony camcorder in iMovie anymore. It still works on MacBook, so nothing wrong with camera or connections.

After upgrading to Mavericks my iMac does not see my Sony camcorder anymore. I tried the new iMovie as well as the old version 9.0.9, which is still in Applications. I checked the camcorder and connections in iMovie on my MacBook (not upgraded) and that still functions properly, so the problem does not seem to be in iMovie, old or new, or in camcorder and connection.
Anybody with the same problem or a solution?
Thanks mbkom

Try this

Since updating to Maverick, my screensaver does not show my iPhotos anymore and I can not find how to reset this.

My screensaver preference was set at showing the last 12 months of iPhotos on my Mountain Lion. Just updated to Maverick and now it shows "no photos." Tried to reset, but it does not give me the option to personalize using my iPhotos as an option to do so. I do not want to use what Apple has chosen, but want my pictures. How do I get this back?

You need to upgrade to the latest 64 bit Mavericks optimized, compatible version of iPhoto.
Older versions of iPhoto will no longer work under OS X Mavericks.
What will happen is that the new iPhoto library will be updated to work the new version of iPhoto an Mavericks and the updated iPhoto library will no longer be accessible to older versions of iPhoto or older versions of OS X.
If you want to be able to access the current configuration of your Libary with older version of iPhoto an older versions of OS X, then you need to create a copy of the IPhoto lIbrary and move this copy to another location
You can save the duplicate iPhoto Library anywhere on your Mac's internal hard drive.
I created a new folder in my Home folder/directory called My Photos and stored the duplicate iPhoto library there along with other images I didn't want to be in iPhoto.
As long as the copy of the iPhoto library is made before you let the new version of iPhoto convert it, it will still be intact for older versions of iPhoto and OS X to access at some future date, if needed.

I'm using an iMac running OS X 10.9.2 and since i installed mavericks my iPhoto will not open. Can anyone help please?

my iPhoto will not open since I installed Mavericks. Can anyone help with this please?

Do you have one of the versions that are shown here with the forbidden symbol over them:
If so you'll need to upgrade iPhoto to 9.5.1 from the App Store. It'll be a free upgrade.

Iphoto does not consistently use filename as title

I am importing photos from a Finder folder into iphoto (09). For some photos, the program automatically uses the file name as title; for other photos it does not assign any title. I can't make out any pattern. Since I gave the files names that have meaning, it would be very helpful if I could see them in iphoto. (If I look at the Extended Photo Info, the file name can be seen, but it does not show up in the regular view as titles.) Can anyone help? Thanks!

Have you looked at the files with other programs, for example Preview?
If you show the Inspector in Preview (Tools > Show Inspector) and open the IPTC and Exif tab, you can see the metadata tags of the photos. Do the image files in question have different IPTC or Exif tags set? Some cameras write empty captions to the photos, that might be read by iPhoto as empty titles.

Since upgrade to iOS 4 Safari does not remember Wi-Fi auto-login passwords

On the university campus where I work the public WiFi wireless network requires you to enter your university username and password. A login screen pops up in a special Safari window and asks for this information shortly after the iPhone connects to the access point and the DHCP server gives it an IP address.
After entering the info the first time Safari asks if I want it to remember the information. In iPhone OS 3.1.3, when I tapped Yes, it would actually remember the information and autofill it on subsequent visits. In iOS 4 it asks, and I say Yes, but it never remembers or autofills.
I suspect this is just a regression defect that we can't do anything about (other than complain, which I've done and I encourage others to do too if it's not just me), but I might as well ask, has anyone else noticed this, and is there a fix or workaround?
Complain here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

It's not just you - I've got exactly the same problem. I use a university network, and I've always needed to log in every day, but now (since iOS4) my iPhone doesn't remember the ID and password. Every time I re-type the data, it asks me "Do you want to remember this?", and I say yes, and I've been doing that every day... and it still refuses to remember.
Very annoying.

TS3276 Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, Mail does not let me send e-mails using Comcast mail server. Why?

Why is this? Comcast's SMTP outgoing mail server is set for my e-mai account but I keep getting an Apple error dialog saying the server can't be used.

I solved it by going to Comcast's website which had slightly different instructions for setting up an e-mail account than it did 4 years ago when I first set it up. Comcast's SMTP server always worked notwithstanding many Mac OS and Mail upgrades over those 4 years. Apparently, with my upgrade to Mountain Lion, something got sideways.
After following the Comcast instructions, the Comcast SMTP outgoing server now works just fine, as before.

Cannot Access Disks on Time Capsule Since Upgrading to Mavericks

Hey folks...
So I've had this set up for several years, and it's worked out well. I have a time capsule with an external (self-powered) harddrive connected to it via USB. I usually access it via ethernet as the connection is more speedy than wifi, and my laptop generally remains stationary. For what it's worth, I'm using a Macbook Pro (mid-2010), with the original time capsule (500gb) as well as a connected Western Digital (1tb) external harddrive.
Since upgrading to Mavericks, however, I have not been able to consistently access the remote disks, either by wifi or ethernet connection. The time capsule shows up under my "shared" section of the finder window, but the drives (which are usually visible and accessible from within the time capsule) are not there. Strange enough, when I go into my Airport Utility for Time Capsule preferences, the disks are visible under the "disks" section.
The time capsules' firmware is up to date, as well as the laptop's. I have tried reseting the time capsule as well as my computer in addition to simply unplugging/plugging it back in. I was able to access the disks on a fluke once in the last few days, but after moving the computer away from it's standard spot, the disks are once again no longer accessible.
I had Server 2.0 but am unable to use it since upgrading the OS and haven't purchased Server 3.0. Any suggestions for solutions? Could residule configurations having to do with the Server functionality be affecting it? I'm guessing it is something to do with Mavericks. Thanks for any help or feedback.
Mitchel

I don't have a guaranteed solution to your problem, just some suggestions:
1) Try powering down the Time Capsule for at least 15 minutes, then plug it in again and see if it works better.
2) If you suspect that heat might be a problem, try raising the Time Capsule to give better air flow below it. I have mine on an inverted plastic-coated-wire basket of the type used to organize kitchen drawers.
3) If AirPort Utility can "see" the Time Capsule, you should be able to use the "archive" function (in the Disks panel, Disks tab) to write the disk's contents to a drive connected to the Time Capsule's USB port.
4) In the worst case, you should be able to access the files on the Time Capsule's disk by opening up the Time Capsule, removing the disk drive, mounting the drive in an external enclosure, and attaching the enclosure to your Mac.

Iphoto does not allow me to update

Since installing Moutain Lion my iphoto does not allow me to update. It asks for it, but does not complete it. What should I do?

I have the same problem. I have iPhoto 9.1.5 running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2, I open iPhoto and select Check for Updates... It says iPhoto 9.4.2 is available so I push Launch Software Update and it launches the App Store but then it says No Update Available. This doesn't surprise me since I never bought through the App Store but instead installed from the iLife '11 install DVD. All of iLife updated fine until Apple started releasing automatic updates through the App Store ONLY. So I tried going on Apple Support and manually downloading the next available update (Tried 9.2.1 & 9.4.2), I launch the installer and it says iPhoto 9.1 or greater is required to install this update. I have 9.1.5 so I don't understand why it won't work. I even tried installing iPhoto 9.1 update and it says it requires iPhoto 9.0. I don't know what else to try except maybe calling Apple to see if they would give me a free download through the App Store (Highly unlikely). I refuse to purchase the whole suite AGAIN just because it won't update but I want my updates so I can use iCloud and Photo Stream. So frustrating. I have been dealing with this for a year and now I am finally deciding to speak up and get some help with this. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

IPhoto does not see any changes after editing a photo in Camera Raw

Hello everyone ,
I have some small problem with my iPhoto. I have set up Camer Raw in iPhoto as External Editor, so when I click on edit in IPhoto,
automatically opens my JPG in Camera Raw. After editing in Camera Raw I'm clicking on ,,Save image" then destination is ,,Save in same location" When I go back to iPhoto to the same photo, iPhoto does not show any changes I have made in Camera Raw.
What could it be or should I set something in iPhoto or in Camera Raw?
Is there a chance in order to deal with this?
I will be grateful for any assistance and
I'm waiting for advice
Dawid

Any time a RAW file is edited in any 3rd party editor from within iPhoto it MUST be saved to the Desktop and imported as a new file. There's no other way to do it. So the photos you've edited and saved are somewhere in the iPhoto Library folder system but cannot be recognized and used by iPhoto.
The following is geared for Photoshop and Photoshop Elements but might have some info relevant for you:
Using Photoshop CS3 or Photoshop Elements 9 as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's Advanced Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
Click to view full size
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
Click to view full size
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
Click to view full size
s I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Click to view full size
NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS/PSE without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in iPhoto". That will let you either edit in iPhoto using the Edit button or Control-clicking on the thumbnail and selecting "Edit in iPhoto" or in PS/PSE by Control-clicking on the thumbnail and selecting "Edit in External Editor" in the Contextual menu.
Click to view full size
This way you get the best of both worlds.

IPhoto does not recognise iPhone since upgrade to iOS 5.1

iPhoto does not recognise iPhone since upgrade to iOS 5.1. Have tried every suggestion I could find but to no avail. Using iPhoto 9.3 and IOS 5.1. This has only started happening since upgrade to IOS 5.1
Image capture does not recognise iPhone device either, yet iTunes synchronises ok

Any helpful suggestions to resolved this issue welcome!

HT4236 Ever since I got the iTunes upgrade, iPhoto does not open and take the photos from my iPhone. I have the older version of iPhoto, so Photo Stream does not work. Can you please help?

Ever since I got the iTunes upgrade, iPhoto does not open and get pictures from my iPhone. How do I fix this? Thanks.

You can stop new photos being automatically added to Photostream in iPhoto from iPhoto preferences > Photostream.

I just upgraded to the maverick and, of course, the iPhoto does not work with it. How do I upgrade to version 11? I cannot find it anywhere

Recently upgraded to Maverick and the version of iphoto does not work with it. How do I get and download the version 11? I can't find it anywhere

Which iPhoto? 9.4.6 and 9.5.1 work here.
FWIW, iLife '11 is available here: http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MC623Z-A-iLife-VERSION/dp/B003XKRZES

I have a MacBook Pro running 10.7.2. I am trying to import photos from my older Canon EOS-1D for the first time since my OS upgrade. iPhoto does not see the camera nor does Image Capture. IC says there is not a camera connected. Cable is known good.

If neither iPhoto not IC can seethe card it might suggest an issue with the card or the ports on the camera/mac.
Try reformat the card, change the ports and/or use a USB Card Reader.

Since upgrading to Maverick I cannot send/share photos through iPhoto. Dropbox says "not connected to server". All other online email activities work just fine.

Since upgrading to Maverick I cannot send photos while in iPhoto. Dropbox says I am not connected to server.
All other internet email activities work just fine.

And again why do you think Dropbox is involved in any way? There is no connection of any sort between iPhoto and Dropbox
THis sounds like you either need to (my personal suggestion) change your email client to Mail in the iPhoto preferenceemail if you want to use the iPhoto client under the accounts tab delete your account and re-enter it
