Hopefully someone else will come along and help you.

Trying to order a book and getting message "Unavailable Images Detected in Book" How do I fix

I am trying to order a book for a Holiday gift. It is giving me the following message:
Unavaible Images Detected in book
One or more of the images in your book are not presently available at full resolution. Please reconnect to these files by mounting the volume(s) containing the original images.
I have read a bit about doing this through Reconnecting to an offline refenced image and tried this with the majority of the images that I am having trouble with but after I hit done I get the same picture again that is casuing the issue. All of the pictures have been improted via dropbox, emails, scans, or a portable drive. None of the pictures that came directly from my camera are the issue.
How do I fix this? I do not understand the way in which Aperature files or stores my pictures. Do I need to relocate them to an Aperture file somewhere? Can I export a version into Apertures file to then put that newer picture in my book?
How can I import pictures better for the future so this doesnt happen again?
Thanks, Trina

Trina,
you are saying, only the images from Drop box, email, etc, are missing:
All of the pictures have been imported via dropbox, emails, scans, or a portable drive.
What were the settings you used when importing? i.e. the "Store Files" pop-up menu in the "Aperture Library" brick of the "Import" panel.
Did you move the image files into your Aperture library, picked a folder on your system drive, or did you pick "In their current location"? With the last setting, your images will be only available, if the drive is connected, where you imported them from, and if no other application moves them around. Do not use "In their current location", if you are importing from a drive, that you want to remove again, or when you are importing from the network, from your drop box folder, or from Mail.
Can I export a version into Apertures file to then put that newer picture in my book?
You cannot export versions, if the referenced file is missing. First you need to reconnect (again).
To fix this, locate the original files you imported (in your Dropbox, in your Mail), reconnect them again like you did before, and then let Aperture move them to a safe place on your system drive. You can either use the "File > Consolidate Original" command (this will move the files into your Aperture library) or use "File > Relocate Original" to move them to a folder on your system drive.
I do not understand the way in which Aperature files or stores my pictures.
Perhaps Kirby Krieger's excellent User Tip will help you to understand Aperture's filesystem better:

I am trying to order a book, I keep getting the same error message," A network error occurred while processing your order, please check your network connection and try again"

I am trying to order a book with iphoto, I keep getting the same error message.
" A network error occurred while processing your order, please check your network connection and try again"
I get the billing part up, it has even uploaded my jpegs but at the final process, I get the same message.
I have ordered two books a few months ago without any problems.
Now I keep getting the same message either half way into
the order or at the final hurdle after the images have been uploaded.
Any ideas?
My shared Network has been fine and that does'nt seem an issue.
Help.

Try again in a couple of hours - sometimes it is a temp condition

I'm trying to order a book in iphoto. everytime it begins to upload, iphoto shuts down in the middle of the process

i'm trying to order a book in iphoto. everytime it begins to upload, iphoto shuts down in the middle of the process. Whats the problem?

Hi TD,
Yes they do appear in full size and I can edit them. I've just realized that it's not just photos from the Net that are not appearing - it seems to be happening for all photos I've imported into iPhoto after a certain date.
After spending many more frustrating hours trying to work this out, I found that if I click all of the 'events' which contain the photos I'm after and then create a Book - all these photos appear in the selection window strip. However I still need to work out a proper solution as this still limits me to only those photos in the highlighted 'events' and no new pictures can be added to that particular Book.
Heeeelp please!

BUG! iphoto stalls when trying to create a book and no event is selected

however, works fine when trying to create a book and an event or an album is selected... obviously a bug.

Solution - do not do that
and report to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
But it is likely that updates for '09 are over since it is a couple of years old and '11 is out

I have asked them and have now been told the below
We have carefully reviewed your iTunes account "................." and I regret to let you know that this account is not in compliance with our iTunes Store Terms and Conditions. We are unable to provide further information regarding this situation. I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

this is absolutely ridiculous, which steps do i have now?

I ordered 5 books and a rental movie with a gift card The movie will not download and I have not received my books. When or how long does this all take. I am a first time user!

How long does it take for a movie that I rented in I-Tunes to download? I ordered one on the second of Sept and I am still waiting. I have a blinking arrow that tells me to download but it stops in mid stream! And, I ordered 5 books and still have not received them,

Wow.......You plug the 30 pin connector to the botton of your iPad and the USB to the USB port on your computer.
But first, you can download the movie and books to your iTunes account without having your iPad connected. After you've downloaded the material, then you connect your iPad and sync it all over.
I'm sorry I have to sign off. I have to be up like 6 hours. I'll check in tomorrow and see if you made any progress.
If nothing else, this will get your iPad and your iTunes account speaking again. They should be regularly connected and your iPad routinely backed up.
One more thing. If it's been a while since you even opened iTunes on your PC, make sure you check for iTunes downloads and update iTunes with the latest version.
Good Luck........

Trying to create a book and have sorted 900 photos in manual order...the book application resorts my photos and i have to search 900 photos each time. how can i set the sorting

trying to create an Aperture book and have sorted 900 photos in manual order...the book application resorts my photos and i have to search 900 photos each time to place a photo. how can i set the sorting to stay in my manual setup?

1. If you manually sort Images in a Project, and then create a new Book w. "Include selected Images" checked, your manual sort order will be preserved.
2. As a workaround for when you have already created a Book, batch rename your Images with a leading index or counter after setting the order manually. You'll have to create a Naming Preset, e.g.: "{Index}_{Version Name}". The renaming should go in the order that you selected the Images, so be sure to select the first one first, and then use "Edit→Select all" to extend the selection to all Images. Once the Images are in your Book, a sort on Version Name should be the same as the manual sort you created.
3. At the risk of stating the obvious, you could create the Book, import the Images, and then sort them. The Book -- it is, to Aperture, just a special kind of Album -- retains its own manual sort order. I recommend using Albums this way. Use Projects to cull and develop Images, and use Albums for output. Sorting for a Book (or any output) is better done in the container devoted to that output (and not in the Project, which is more general).

Problem ordering photo books and calanders???

every time i try setting up an i photo account to order a book or calendar it doesn�t let me go past the 3rd step. the step after i enter my credit card info. Error comes up saying it won't let me conect and to check my network conection??? I have internet conection and tried to set up at 3 different locations...
Anyone one know the problem????
Thanks
<edited by host>

I have been trying to upload my calendar since last week - I've tried so many times that my credit card company blocked by account because Apple received so many authorizations on my account. I got my credit card unblocked - I had AT&T check my internet service - I reviewed each and every page, each and every photo, reduced all file sizes, and even tried a different layout and I cannot get the calendar to upload......I get to about 5 mb of my 24 mb calendar and it says to retry. It mentions an error with uploading a photo once in awhile, but I cannot find what it would be and I even deleted each unused photo from the calendar's library. I printed each layout to a pdf files so that I have a backup and I guess I may end up at Kinko's. I have NEVER had these problems in past years and as the Dec. 18th deadline approaches, I'm totally stressed with this project because I had planned to change birthday/anniv entries and do at least 3 more calendars!! ANY suggestions would be much appreciated!!

HT4059 I pre-order a book and now that it is available to download, I can't download it?

I pre-Oder a book and now that it is available for download,
I can't download to my phone.

Hello mari215,
I would be eager to download and read my pre-ordered book as well. I found a couple of resources that might help with downloading this purchase.
First, I recommend checking to see if the download was interrupted. You can use the steps in this article:
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
If the book does not download after following the steps in that article, I recommend trying to download the book from the list of past purchases. As long as you are signed in with the same Apple ID you used to purchase the book, you will not be charged again. You can find the steps to do this in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
If you are still not able to download the book, I recommend reporting this issue to the iTunes Store:

I tried to order iPhoto book

Approx 5 days ago I tried to order an iPhoto book but my computer timed out. I tried twice. I never received an order confirmation email therefore assumed it did not proceed. However two charges have appeared on my credit card. i then went into my iphoto history and there are no photo books showing. I have emailed the apple support, however their response was that without an order number they can't help me. Any ideas where I can go to from here?? I want my money back!
Thanks

First tell you credit card company you want to challange the charges and get them removed.
This Apple Help page has instructions on returns and refunds: Help - Apple Store (U.S.) but personally I believe it's rather vague on how to contact Apple.
You can try this phone number, 1-800-MY-APPLE, and aske for a product return supervisor and tell your story.

TS1398 I have followed this advice and still unable to get my iphone to connect to my home router. This happens way too frequently and very frustrated

I am very frustrated to come home and find my phone not connecting to the router. This is happening frequently and not sure how to correct it.
Help anyone!

When you say it happens frequently I assume that you can connect but the xconnection drops often
