TS3989 When I try to add photos from PhotoStream into my iPhoto Library a message appears asking to view the photo in the library (as if it were already imported).  When I click View it brings me to my iPhoto library but the photo(s) are not there?

Hopefully someone can help me with my question.  When I try to add photos from PhotoStream into my iPhoto Library a message appears asking to view the photo in the library (as if it were already imported).  When I click View it brings me to my iPhoto library but the photo(s) are not there?

How exacly are you trying to import from the Photo Stream? Dragging from the stream to the events? Ctrl-clicking or right clicking?
If "Show in Library" does not show the event, then your iPhoto Library may need repairing or rebuilding;  try to run the iPhoto Library First Aid Tools, if you have not already done so. See this post by Old Toad on how to do it:    Rebuild iPhoto Library Version 11:

    When i try to add music from itunes to my ipod, Itune tells me the music on my ipod came from a differnt libray and  wants to erase my whole ipod. i just loaded my ipod two days ago. i don't want to replace everything every time i want to add two to songs. My MacBook Pro is the only autherized computer.

    To prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - hold down the 'option' and the 'command' keys when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - key the keys down until the iPod/iPhone is listed under the Devices list in iTunes - this will prevent a sync from taking place and you will be able to change your settings.

  • I just purchased a new iMac. My iTunes account is missing a ton of music and I cant figure out how to access it. When I try to load music from my ipod to match my imac it only asks if i'd like to sink my ipod with my account. How do I access my library?

    I just purchased a new iMac. My iTunes account is missing a ton of music and only contains "purchased" music. When I try to load music from my ipod to match my imac it only asks if i'd like to sinc my ipod with my account. How do I access my entire library? Thanks

    Unless you subscribe to Match, you will have to transfer your non-iTunes stuff from your old computer:

    If you want to copy non-iTunes music off of your iPod (eg, if your old computer doesn't exist), you'll need to use a third party program.  I don't know of any free ones anymore, but if you google, you can find several in the $19 range.

  • Why does idvd quit when i try to add media from iphoto?

    In iDVD, whenever I click Media & then click Photos, it looks like i should be able to select items from iPhoto: But if I click any of the top-level items listed like Events or Photos, iDVD quits/closes without any error messages. This happens in both new & existing iDVD projects (I've never actually used iDVD before today). Also, in iMovie I can ony see older Events & photos in iPhoto when I try to add photos to a project. This makes me think there might be something up with my iPhoto software or its data.
    I'm pretty sure I'm using the latest versions of iDVD & iPhoto from the old iLife ('08) included with my MacBook Pro: iDVD version 7.1.2 (1158), iMovie version 8.0.6 (821), & iPhoto version 8.1.2 (424), running on Mac OS X version 10.6.8. I assume the Apple Software Update app automatically installed whatever updates I have over the versions that shipped with my computer.

    Try this basic troubleshooting fix :
    1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete IDVD'S cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch IDVD and try again.

  • When I import photos from Photostream into my iPhoto, it no longer organizes them into Events. I haven't been able to creat an Event since November 2013.

    When I import photos from Photostream, iPhoto no longer organizes them into Events. Although I can organize my photos into old or newly created Albums, I haven't been able to create an Event since November 2013. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Flag the pic(s) and select the the Target Event and go Events -> Add Flagged Pics to Selected Event
    i see how to do this
    Drag the selected pic(s) to the target Event.
    i'm struggling with this. i don't see a way to drag a pic from photostream direct to an event. if i'm in photostream, i can drag a pic, but i can't see any individual event to drag it to. i can dump it in Events in the sidebar and drag to an event from there, but that's a bit clunky.
    beats me why i can copy a pic in photostream, but iphoto won't allow me to paste in an event???

  • IPod Classic stores about 6000 songs and when I try and add more from library it detects van iPod in recovery mode and needs to be restored every time.

    How to fix an iPod that only takes 6000 songs and then goes into recovery mode and consistently asks for restore?

    Can you play the song in iTunes?
    If you can't the song file is probably corrupt and needs to be replaced.

  • Using Maverick, when I try to add music to a movie, I get a message that the files are protected and unavailable. How do I unprotect them?

    I recently downloaded to Maverick. Now when I try to add mucis from iTunes to a movie I am making, I get a message that the files are prtected and unavailable. This never happened to me before. How do I correct this problem?

    Well, it sounds as if you are trying to violate copyright protections - trying to use music that you purchased for individual use in a way that is not permitted.
    The fact that you were able to do this before would not change the fact that it is not allowed.

  • Diapresentation: some photo's are not there

    I use Iphoto 7.1.5. I have a problem with the "diavoorstelling"/ slideshow. Some photo's are not displayed. I checked them but I donot see any difference between the photos that are displayed during the slideshow and the photos that are not. All photos are in the same map and have the same characteristics.
    I tried to rebuild , using alt+ cmd , but it doesnot help: als photos are in Iphoto, but only some of them are used in a slideshow of an album that i chosse.
    Is it possible that the use of PICASA gives these problems?

  • I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

    I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

    Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
    It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
    1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
    2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
    I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
    I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
    Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
    If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
    If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
    1. Right click images you want to share.
    2. Select Export version.
    3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
    4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
    This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
    See how you go.

  • When I try to add a photo to my iPhoto library from Safari I get a message that says Safari can't communicate with afar. How do I fix this so I can just add photos direct to iPhoto?

    When I try to add a photo from and email in Safari, I get a message that says could not add photo Safari cannot communicate with iPhoto.
    How can I get them to communicate? Or, more to the point, how can I get a photo from Safari (usually attached to an email) into iPhoto library?

    iPhoto is 7.1.5
    That's much too old. To solve the problem, you'll have to uninstall iLife completely, then upgrade to the current version of iPhoto in the App Store.

  • I am not able to mail the photos from iPhoto.  Its always saying that the email address it's not recognized.  Another situation is that when I try to add my me account in the preferences account, doesn't recognize my @me password. Tks for any help! :-)

    1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
    Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
    Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
    Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
    Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
    How much free space on it now?
