Tagging Facebook albums created in Aperture not working

I'm trying to publish a Facebook album from within Aperture (3.6), and am having trouble getting the tags to stick in Facebook. When I go visit the album on Facebook, the tags are there, but not actually linked to the people. For example My friend John Doe, would be tagged in the photo in grey writing, but it is not a clickable link, and when I go to John's Facebook page, he hasn't been tagged in it.
I suspect the issue is related to this forum post: Facebook contacts not syncing
When I go to John Doe's Faces entry, it shows the correct contacts entry.
When I go to the contacts entry, it has his Facebook profile under the "Facebook" field, but there is no small F under his contact picture, and when I tell os X to update all profile pictures his does not get updated. Also, it seems that my Facebook syncing is not syncing all my Facebook friends, only a select few, who I suspect meet the criteria discussed in the above thread. So, what I suspect is happening, is that Aperture thinks that John's faces entry is connected to a Facebook account (possibly from some legacy link with contacts) but Facebook's new policy is making it so that John's contact is not being synced from Facebook to iCloud.
I can't figure out a way to manually link his contact card to his Facebook account. Entering his Facebook homepage web address does nothing as far as I can tell.
Any help would be appreciated. It ***** spending all the time tagging faces in aperture and then having to re-do it in Facebook.
PS: Running Yosemite, all programs up to date as of nov 22, 2014
Edited for spelling

It shows for me within a minute.  I don't have Facebook enabled.  I would:
- reboot and see if that forces the tieing of any loose ends, and thus allows this feature to work
- maybe try it on a new Library, or a Library used in another User Account on your machine
- see if someone who does use Facebook tries the feature and reports on whether it works
I'm confident Library size/number of Images is not part of the issue, unless you have several thousand named Faces.
Just to make sure we are "on the same page":  you go to Contacts, select a contact, double-click the picture assigned to that contact, and never see "Faces" in this dialog:

  • I just imported 70 photos successfully, edited them, and then attempted to upload them to a Facebook album.  It did not work and got hung up, so I force quit IPhoto and was going to try again.  The 70 photos have DISAPPEARED!!  Help !!!!

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, 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.

  • Photos shared in a Facebook album are listed as "not shared" in metadata

    Hi all,
    I have the following problem : if I share a photo from Aperture 3.5.1 on my Facebook timeline, it does show as such in the "shared" page on the info pane. However, when sharing several photos to a Facebook album, none of them are marked as shared. What's more, these photos in the Facebook album synced in Aperture are listed as independant versions, not linked to an existing Aperture photo.
    Am I the only one having this issue ?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply! I found the folder and it did, indeed have ALOT of stuff in it, most of the photos I've imported in the last couple of days. I dragged it to my desktop, but iPhoto still says it's finding unimported photos when I open it. When you say to "trash the folder" do you mean the one I dragged to the desktop or the one in the 'Package Contents?" Can I delete the stuff in that original 'Package Contents' folder? I've seen a few people say not to mess with the folders within the iPhoto library, but it doesn't seem like it would need all of those files inside the "import" folder. Thanks for the help!!

  • Problem linking to MobileMe album created in Aperture

    I use multiple computers and I'm trying to sort out synchronising photo albums between them.
    On my main iMac I use Aperture and have created and published a number of photo albums to the gallery. I can view the albums from any machine via the Safari web browser and can download individual photographs.
    On my Macbook or any of the other machines, when I try to subscribe to an album using the "subscribe in iPhoto" option, iPhoto starts up, tries to link and comes back with a message 'There are no photos in the subscription “MobileMe Atom Feed.”'
    I can set up a subscription in iPhoto by accessing MobileMe and copying the URL, but this doesn't allow me to add photographs to the album from within iPhoto.
    Any suggestions of what I might be doing wrong or how to resolve this situation. Incidentally, I'm using iPhoto '09 on both of the machines I am trying to get to set up a subscription to an album on.
    Thanks, Brian

    Glenn: Thanks for the reply. I've gone back through and examined things again and here is what is happening, although I can't explain why it's happening.
    You are correct about the differences in the URL formats for Mobile Me. However, it is not possible while on the http://www.me.com/gallery to send an invite to a friend to subscribe to your gallery. That ability is not there. You must click on the other link in the upper right corner that takes you to the actual gallery with the URL format http://gallery.me.com. Once you are at that location, then and only then is the button available called "Tell A Friend".
    True. I only mention the other link because there is, within iPhoto itself, a "Subscribe to Photo Feed..." option under the File menu. here you manually type or paste the URL pointing to the gallery you wish to subscribe to. If you pasted the incorrect gallery link, you will get the same failure you reported earlier.
    I wonder if using that option on your end would succeed or not, Try it and let us know.
    So, while on the http://gallery.me.com website gallery, I can click on the "Tell A Friend" button and send an invitation to someone to view the gallery. The e-mail that it creates contains the correct link format. I then send this e-mail to myself (using a different e-mail address) and upon receiving the mail click on the link provided and it takes me to the correct URL web page gallery where I can view the photos and now there's an option at the top called "Subscribe". When I click on this button it asks if I want to subscribe via an RSS reader or to iPhoto. I select iPhoto and iPhoto then opens automatically and then asks me if I wish to subscribe to the gallery. I click "yes" and an error message pops up that says there are no photos published (even though I'm looking right at them). All of the links are correct in that they are pointing to the http://gallery.me.com/username/galleryname address. But it still does not work.
    The only way I can get it to work is to go into Aperture - click on the mobile me gallery that I have published and then click on the button at the bottom of the page that says "Tell A Friend". Once again it generates an e-mail with an invitation to view the gallery. I send that e-mail to my other address and when I receive it I click on the link, it takes me to the correct URL web gallery where I can see the photos just as before. When I click on the "subscribe" button at the top, iPhoto launches - asks me if I wish to subscribe - I click "yes" - and the photos begin downloading into iPhoto with no problem.
    So - to sum up. If I send an invite to a friend to view and subscribe to an album from the actuall gallery web page it does not work. If I send the invite from Aperture (which is where the gallery was published from) then the subscription process works. In both instances the URLs that are being referenced are the correct http://gallery.me.com web site.
    Nothing has changed at my end and I'm pretty sure there is a bug here on the Mobile Me website that is generating this problem. I've seen this same problem now on my wife's computer and on my parent's computers - so it's not just an isolated issue on my computer.
    Nice summary of the issue. I have to admit, all methods of subscribing to a Photo Feed are working on my end. If you don't mind, you can send me an invite to one of these troublesome galleries, and I'll see if I can subscribe to it on my end (Check my profile in the upper right of this page for mt email address).
    I guess I should report it to Apple. The only problem with that is you never hear back from them. Thanks for the suggestions anyway and let me know if you have any other ideas.
    True. However, it is possible to signup for a free Apple Developer Account here:
    http://developer.apple.com/products/mac/program/
    You don;t actually need to be a develper, but you will be able to submit Bug Reports that get assigned a case number and the engineers respond and even may ask for further information. I've done it myself.

  • Organizing images for a photo album (to be printed) not working as expected

    I am trying to create a group of selects from a vacation from which I will print 40 non-snorkeling photos to put in a physical photo album. Here’s what I’m doing:
    Created project Hawaii, imported about 400 images.
    Created keywords "Hawaii", “Snorkeling Trip” and “Everything Else”
    Created Smart Album “Land and Air” with keywords “Hawaii” and “Everything Else”
    Created Smart Album “Snorkeling Trip” with keywords “Hawaii” and “Snorkeling Trip”
    Created empty Album “Photo Album”
    At this point I have about 400 images in the project Hawaii, 350 in Smart Album “Land and Air” and 50 in Smart Album “Snorkeling Trip”. So far everything is working as expected.
    Next I selected the Smart Album “Land and Air”, switched to the Ratings & Keywords view, walked through all images and found 40 to rate 5-stars. I also cropped and made some adjustments.
    Next I re-arranged these 40 selects to an order that better depicts a story. Note: At this point the sort field indicates “Custom” as expected.
    Next I dragged these 40 selects into empty Album “Photo Album”. This is where the problems begin:
    In the Album "Photo Album", the sort order changed to “Image Date” and “Custom” is now grayed out. I can not change the order of the images.
    All of these images are “- version 2”. If I click on the Smart Album “Land and Air” these 40 “- version 2” images appear there, too, in addition to the ones that are already there. I.E. There are 40 more images in “Land and Air”, 40 of the original images and 40 of “- version 2”. Interestingly, the originals and “- version 2” images are identical – they are both cropped and adjusted.
    I’m confused as to why there are “- version 2” images when they are the same (with crops and adjustments) as version "1”. What I expected was to just have the 40 images I selected out and arranged in the Album “Photo Album” and the original 40 in Smart Album “Land and Air” not duplicated and would (or perhaps would not?) reflect the crops and adjustments, and keywording.
    How should I be doing this? What am I doing wrong?

  • Full screen mode PDF created on Mac not working on PC?

    I've created a PDF presentation on a Mac in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional with about 80 pages. I've set it to open in full screen mode when viewed, which works fine on Mac when tested. When opened on a PC however, in my clients corporate environment, it does not work? Has anyone else come across this problem or have any suggestions to remedy it? Could it be something to do with the system it is being opened on blocking full screen mode?

    Check this out in Acrobat help type : Full Screen Mode
    look at the following topics:
    Defining initial View as Full Screen Mode
    Defining initial View
    It appears Fullscreen mode is based on OS Specifications So you need to reopen on a PC version of Acrobat  and set it again.
    Looks like they could have both settings in both programs that is a Line that says set full screen mode for Mac PC Unix Linux set for all.

  • 'Create New Contact' not working in Phone app

    I want to Create New Contact after a call from a new number (selecting the "circled i" button next to the "unknown" phone number in the Recents tab) but while I was entering data in the Contact app, I was interrupted, the iPhone went to sleep and my extensive Contact entry was lost because no data is saved until the Done button is manually selected which closes the record.
    When I go back to the Phone app and select the "circled i" button next to the "unknown" phone number in the Recents tab, both the "Create New Contact" and the "Add to Existing Contact" buttons to take me to the Contact app do not work...i.e. nothing happens when I press them, even after putting the iPhone to sleep. After several tries, I let it sleep for 10 minutes and now these buttons linking to the Contact app from the Phone app again work as usual.
    So we have two unacceptable defects in the iPhone basic Apple apps here:
    1- interruptions while entering a new Contact app record causes the new record to be lost because it isn't automatically saved when the iPhone goes to sleep or an incoming call, etc, but only when the user manually selects the Done button in the Contact app record, which closes the record and one must then select the Edit button to resume data entry (repeat often to simply save as you enter in case there is an unexpected interruption...how dumb is that?. This is just poor iOS implementation that doesn't consider common usage situations that cause data loss, and it could be data that isn't easily retrieved. If Apple doesn't know how to implement auto save at frequent intervals, or upon certain events like sleep or incoming call, then they should at least put a Save button next to the Done button so we can manually save without the stupid Done and Edit button pushing, repeat, repeat, repeat.
    2- A bug in the Phone app that causes the link buttons to the Contact app to stop functioning in at least the situation I describe above. This is unacceptable in a mature iOS basic usage app.

  • Drag and drop from Aperture not working?

    This sounds like a pretty stupid issue but... when I attempt to drag & drop an image from Aperture (to anywhere, e.g. desktop, iweb, mail) it usually doesn't let me. Some photos will drag out but most won't (Two pictures of the identical format and size - one will let me drag&drop it and the other won't), and the export feature takes forever. I tried making sure that aperture is maintaining the previews and that the file to export is half size but still not working... any ideas?

    Not stupid at all. That's a feature I use all the time and I'd be pretty PO'd if it wasn't working.
    Your profile doesn't indicate whether you're running Aperture 3.x or not. Did the problem appear after an update or has it always been that way on your installation?

    iphoto 9.6 on yosemite is deleting all of the pics from the former library, iphoto 9.6 can't share with Facebook despite that it is oke with the account. no sharing with iMessage and no sharing with iCloud possible the choices stay grey. also print orders are not possible it's stay also grey.

    here is one
    I had the same issue, email, iMessage, Facebook,etc.. plus print all greyed out. I went up to the File menu, clicked on the Switch to Library drop down. Since I only have one library it was already selected, hit choose and all of the functions work again. Seems the system wasn't acknowledging my original library once I updated to Yosemite or 9.6. Either way, it works now.
    If that does not work here is another suggestion
