Streaming photo's from synced library

Okay, can someone confirm this. I can set up TV to sync or stream all my iTunes content, except for my photo's. It seem that photo's can't be streamed, only synced. The only way to stream photo's is to set up TV to stream all content only.

You can stream and sync photos at the same time, the only limitation is that you us the same list to do both and hence you stream and sync exactly the same photos, the benefit is that when you are in your "my itunes library" (ie you are streaming other content) you don't need to switch to your "tv library" (your synced content) just to see your photos.
This is exactly how mine works.

How do I stream photo's from my desktop's harddrive (windows 8) to my apple TV?

I am unable to stream photo's from my desktop's harddrive (runs on Windows 8) to my Apple TV. I turned Sharing on on both devices. When I go to my apple TV (and my PC is on with Itunes running), and I click the Computer app on apple TV, I can only see my music in my library. There are no photos or no other folders.

In itunes
Ctrl B to turn on the top menu. Then
File > Home Sharing > Choose which Photos to sync to apple tv
This pops up a box where you can select Apps or folders to send the photos to Apple TV

You're using iPhoto 6?
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> 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 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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

You can't.
AppleTV 1 does not support Airplay only Airtunes for audio.
There will be no upgrade. It's Apple's way - they want you to upgrade to newer hardware all the time.

Syncing/Streaming Photo's from iPhoto

Good evening
I'm attempting to sync my iPhoto library with my Atv and it says that I have insufficient space to sync the photo's. Elsewhere in support I came across a note that effectively said if your Atv is full of movies and tv episodes the photo library won't sync.
so, my question, and this is based upon my current level of knowledge of the Atv is; I thought once the Atv was full, it would go from syncing to streaming, regardless of the media? I have only just begun ripping my DVD library and it has more than 1.5TB of content. I assume once the Atv is full it will just stream the content. That being the case, why can it not do the same for photos'?

Thanks Winston, you are correct "sync". In fact I found the answer in a slightly different way. There is a check-box in the photo's tab that provides for syncing photo's before any media. Therefore this will in fact create the necessary space on the ATV for the photo's by moving other media content from syncing to streaming.
Of course the alternative, as you point out is to limit what actually gets synced in custom sync.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Photos missing from iPhoto Library - iPhoto 6.0.4

I am a MAC newbie so please bear with me. I have searched various forums and have not found a situation precisely like mine. Because I am new to the OS and don't want to make an irreversible error, I decided to submit this question.
I have been using my MacBook without incident since late May. Yesterday, I was showing off the MacBook and iPhoto to a friend. When I I opened iPhoto I got a dialog box I had not seen before that referenced updating thumbnails(?) and changing resolution(?). As as PC user for over 30 years, my habit is to screen capture unusual dialog boxes - but, of course, not this time.
I believe I chose an option called "skip" or possibly "cancel." iPhoto continued to open, but when it finished, there was no data, there were no Albums or Rolls. And no, I had not yet backed up my data - I know, I know.
My system never froze and I wouldn't know how to force quit an app or shut down in such a situation.
I found the data in the Pictures folder on the HD, but cannot access them or get them "back into" iPhoto.
So, before I do anything that will destroy my photos for ever, I was wondering if anybody had the same problem and tips on how to fix it. Am I missing some critical update? Did I download and apply an update that caused this? I do not recall doing so.
Thank you all for your patience and help.

TM:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. It looks like the database file, Library6.iPhoto has been corrupted/damaged in some manner. You're image files are still in the Originals folder so you'll be able to create a new library with the same rolls but will lose your other organizational efforts.
Here's how to create a new library and at least have the same rolls as the original.
1 - move the existing library folder to the desktop.
2 - copy the Originals folder from that library folder to the desktop.
3 - launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
4 - drag the Originals folder from the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
This will create a new library with the same rolls as the original library. However, some of the dates on the rolls may be different (the import date) but can be edited as you would the roll title.
In the future I recommend you make a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto file after each import and after doing a lot of editing and organizing in the library. Then if you experience a similar crash all you need to do is replace the damaged database file with the backup copy and you'll be back to the same place in the library as when you make the backup.
Once this is completed you can delete the Originals folder from the desktop and the library folder. You can keep the older library folder to try other fixes on it.

Just set up our Apple TV and it works fine for NetFlix. However want to stream photos and I Tune library from home computer but this computer accesses the internet thru a VPR at my wife's place of enployment. Other than a 2nd computer any suggestions?R

Just set up Apple TV on home network. Works fine for NetFlix but we can't stream I Tune libruary or digital photos thru it to our home TV as because of my wife's work we bypass COX and access the internet thru a VPN offered by her employer. Was told we either have to buy a second computer (two expensive for just these two functions) or keep turning on and off the VPN(not practical). Any other ideas? Thanks

Does she need to access the internet through her employer, or is she just trying to access her internal network at work?
If it's the latter, split-stream VPN clients (like Cisco AnyConnect) will split traffic so that only that directed at a particlar domain gets tunneled.
I have an AnyConnect client at home, but I normally only activate it when I'm using it, so I've never tested it with HomeSharing. I'm currently traveling, but when I get home tomorrow, I'll try it out and let you know if it works. If it does, your wife can check with her employer to see if she can configure AnyConnect to work with them.

Share Photo Flux from iPhoto Library

Picking a photo from my iPhoto Library to share it on a new Flux of Photos on icloud doesn't work on iPhoto, on my side...
When I try to share one (or several ) photo, a new photo flux is created, but no photo updated inside...
Is that a bug on iPhoto ?

Not sure what you mean by Flux. Are you doing the following:
1 - select the photo you want to share in Photo Stream.
2 - click on the Share button at the bottom right and select Photo Stream.
3 - in the next window select either the New Photo Stream, My Photo Stream or an existing shared Photo Stream icon
4 - click on the Publish button in the drop down menu that appears..

Uploading photo album from iphoto library

New at Mac. I have 2 thousands photos on my Mac. I have created many albums for these on Iphoto. When I want to upload these albums , i do not have access to my iphoto library . Instead i get the library where the photos have been downloaded by the hundred and some are not related. Why when uploading i cannot have access to my iphoto library with my albums.. This is very frustrating ..thanks again for the answers.

There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 and later*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and later* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and later:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Importing photo album from older library into new library

Hi, I have thousands of pictures and my iPhoto app is starting to stall and freeze. I'd like to reduce the size of the library by creating a new one ( which I've done) and then moving my picture albums from the older library into the new library. I can't seem to find any info on how to do this. I'd appreciate any information that you might have. Thank you.

5k images is a tiny Library. There's a reason it's slow. I would try rebuilding it:
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 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. .

Where did second streaming photos come from and how do I get rid of it?

I used to take pictures and videos that later could've been found under photos app. Now there are two choices in the photo app. One I think says streaming. I cannot delete anything there and the are even pictures of my home page. It's useless to me, so how do I get rid of it and only have one place to view the pictures and videos taken? Thanks!

If you what to keep your pics in the photo app, just turn off photo stream.
Settings - icloud - photo stream - off.

How can I delete a photo album from my IPad?

How can I delete a photo album from my I Pad?

You can turn off photo stream via Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream 'off' , I don't think that it is possible to remove individual photo stream photos. From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486 :
Individual photos cannot be deleted from your Photo Stream. You can, however, delete all the photos in your Photo Stream by clicking the Reset Photo Stream button in your account at icloud.com. The Reset Photo Stream button will instantly delete all Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud, but it will not remove any Photo Stream photos that have already been pushed to your devices.
After deleting the photos from your Photo Stream in iCloud, you can remove the Photo Stream photos from your devices as follows:
On your iOS devices, go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream and turn Photo Stream off. This will delete all the photos from your Photo Stream album. If there are any photos you want to keep on your device, make sure to add them to an album or save them to your Camera Roll first.
