Two issues with iPhoto '09

First of all, I'm running iPhoto 8.1.2, on a system running 10.6.8. The issue described below isn't something that occurred suddenly after an update, as far as I can remember.
There are two issues: first of all, iPhoto won't import my JPEGs that I processed with Lightroom. I did that so many times, and there was never an issue, but for some reason, now I get the message that the file is in an unreadable format. To find out whether the problem resides in iPhoto or in the files, I took a picture that I already had in my library, renamed and tried to import it again, to no avail. Also, I opened the new pictures in Preview, and there was no problem there.
Secondly, I can browse through my events, and see my thumbnails. However, when I then double-click on any picture, iPhoto just shows a black void -- even though it says '1 photo selected in 1 event'. This applies to all photos in the library.
I would really really appreciate feedback on this issue, as iPhoto is my main image displaying/sharing application.

Thanks for the tip. I tried it, but the problem persist in the other account. As I said before, I also tried to reinstall iPhoto, after using AppCleaner to uninstall first. Something else I could do is uninstall all iLife components, and then reinstall the whole suite. Is it enough just to clean up iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD and Garage Band?
Another thing I (re-)tried is to use iPhoto Library Manager to rebuild the library. To no avail, alas, but at least it provides a log with the error message, part of which I reproduce below. At the same time, iPhoto complains about the 'unreadable format' after every Event that ILM tries to rebuild.
Here's the log message:

All of a sudden File compatability issues with IPhoto & digital camera

Anyone have issues or solutions for solving file compatability issues with IPhoto & digital camera? Worked okay for years but all of a sudden giving me error messages about file format. My camera uses Jpeg.

There is an issue ongoing between 10.6 and Kodak cameras. Workround: use a USB Card Reader.

Problems with two iPhones with iPhoto

I have one computer which I sync two iPhones with.
Both phones sync fine in iTunes and I have had no issues.
However, only one of the two iPhones will show up in iPhoto. Looking at the Image Capture program, it does not even see the second iPhone either. I have tried rebooting both the phone and the mac, but nothing seems to work.
Any ideas?

Do you have any pictures taken with the iphone on the second iphone?
If so, you might need to delete a few and then try to see if iphoto will recognize the iphone.
Also, try a reset on the iphone.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305740
If a reset does not work, you might want to try a restore.

Any suggestions on how to fix installation issues with iPhoto & iMovie on used Mac mini?

I bought a used, mid 2011, mac min. The selller deauthorized all his applications and resotred it to factory settings for me. When I received it, I added myself as an administrator and deleted the dummy user the seller had created after restoring the OS. The first thing I wanted to do was install applications I already have on my iMac (also running OSX Lion). It would not install iPhoto or iMovie. It said these applications were assigned to a different apple id, the previous owner. I decided to erase the hard drive and reinstall Lion myself. I ran into some snags (due to my internet connection) and had to use recovery thumb drive, but it worked.
I successfully re-installed Lion on the newly formatted hard drive.
I still cannot install iPhoto and iMovie. It just give me an error now. Couriously, it installed Garage Band just fine. I haven't had any other issues with other applications I purchased on my other iMac.
Anyone have any suggestions, besides purchasing iPhoto and iMovie on the mac mini?

Ethernet cord connected to the router solved it. This is exactly what I had to do when I reinstalled the operating system. For some reason my wireless internet is highly inreliable. It drops out constantly. I've always had my iMac hard wired to the router, but I'll have to figure out a fix for this Mac mini. I can't have a 30ft ethernet cord running through the middle of my basement. Thanks.

Major issues with iphoto 09' v 8.1.2

I am having a lot of dificulty with iphoto and one of my issues is that my photos are showing that they are very poor quality (65kb) but my camera is not even capapble of taking such poor quality. (Canon SX20is)
Is there any way to restore the original resolution or is that info. lost forever; and how do i stop it from doing this in the future???
I would really appreciate help.
Thank you,
Brian

In your OP, it was unclear just what was going on, so I looked to see if it was possible to get files that small. If you would have mentioned the library debacle, I wouldn't have bothered.
I think you are going to have to manually rebuild the library.
I would rename the library you have and start iPhoto to create a new one.
Copy the images from originals folder from the old library to another temporary folder somewhere sort the trash by file type and drag all the jpegs to this temporary folder. Sort by name, and discard the smaller of any duplicate filenames.
Then go to iPhoto and select file->import to library.
Once it is done, select the event that is created and use event->autosplit events.

Wanting to go "back in time" due to issue with iphoto 8.03

Everything was great on Sat. before I downloaded iphoto 8.03. Instead of jumping through hoops to try to fix my issues, can't I simply go back using Time Machine to iphoto 8.02? I've made minor changes otherwise to my mac since Sat. that I can duplicate no prob.
Can I revert back to my machine the way it was Friday or the time of my last back up?
Thanks!

tamara, actually, the following would be even better than trying to restore the application from a Time Machine backup. Reinstall, iPhoto 8.0 from your original iLife `09 DVD, then update the application to the update just prior to the one you began having issues with.
First, open the Applications folder and drag iPhoto to the Trash.
Now insert the iLife `09 DVD and launch the installer.
Accept the license agreement.
When you get to "Installation Type" click the "Customize" button on the left.
If you removed iPhoto as described earlier then there should be a check mark beside iPhoto.
Click "Install".
When the installation is complete go to the Apple Support website and download the iPhoto 8.0.2 Update (I believe it was 8.0.3 that you had trouble with?):
http://support.apple.com/downloads/iPhoto8_0_2Update
Install the update.
Now your iPhoto application is back to the version it was before the 8.0.3 update. However, your photo library was likely converted when you applied the 8.0.3 update. As a result iPhoto 8.0.2 will alert you that the photo library is not compatible with this version of iPhoto.
To fix this, hold down the Option & CMD keys and launch iPhoto.
A window will appear giving you various rebuilding options.
Place a check mark beside "Rebuild the iPhoto Library from automatic backup".
Click "Rebuild".
This will convert the library back to a version compatible with 8.0.2.
Let us know if this resolved your issue. Cheers!

ICloud photostream issues with iPhoto 9

MacbookPro 2013, running 10.9.1 with iPhoto 9.5.1
I have set up a new photostream with iCloud and it's fine on all my devices, but when I try to open the pics through iPhoto it takes me to my 'trash folder'.
I can see the folder and the thumbnails are all fine?
When I then try to play the slideshow, the images appear but are overlaid with the word 'trash'
Very wierd.
Any advice?

#1 is an indication that the library is damaged. Make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Two issues with JnlpDownloadServlet and JDK1.6.0_03

hello everybody,
i recently tried to deploy a simple java application via webstart using the JnlpDownloadServlet of JDK1.6.0_03. thereby i encountered two issues for which i could neither find a solution nor a bug report. has anyone experienced the same?
issue 1:
when setting an explicit timestamp (e.g. TS: TS: 2007-01-01 00:00:00) in my jnlp file, jws always prompts me for an optional update (e.g. when accessing the jnlp the second time via browser) even though i haven't changed anything.
i checked the code and in my opinion the problem is that in line 139 of JnlpDownloadServlet.java a new JnlpResource is created upon every request (esp. for the request to my jnlp file which should be macro-expanded). the lastmodified-attribute of this resource is always the timestamp of the (jnlp-) file on the server (see JnlpResource.java) which is of course NOT the same as the one i explicitly set vie TS: ... in my jnlp file. however, in order to detect if something has changed, line 159 compares the explicitly set timestamp (which is sent with the ""If-Modified-Since"-header, see 131) with the actual file timestamp of the server ("jnlpres.getLastModified()") instead of using the explicit timestamp of the jnlp-file. the latter is retrieved too late (during construction of the response).
issue 2:
in case i ommit the "href"-attribute of the "jnlp" tag in my jnlp-file, my application gets installed without asking me beforehand (which is wrong when creating shortcuts and the like). this is not the case if i use the "href"-attribute to point to itself. however, jws will fire multiple requests then. see related post in this forum.
any ideas or experiences with these two issues?
thanks in advance,
stephan

From the description you have I would first make sure that you have adequate coverage everywhere you need it. Make sure that the phone can see an AP at -67dBm or better at all times. Using the site survey utility in the phone would help you verify this.

HT1373 I have a new Ipad with retina display but two issues with itunes 1) I can not syncronize films&music with the library on my mac and 2) When I download music or films from itunes to my ipad from itunes store the download never finishes. Any help??

I have a two problems with my new Ipad 2 operating system iOS 6.1.3
1) I can not syncronize with my itunes purchaces that I have on my mac book pro (operating system mountain lion)
2) When i purchase items from itunes store the downloads never finishes
I have tried starting and re-starting. Resetting the Ipad to original settings and non of this have worked. Any idea to what I should do?
Thanks a lot, Josephine

That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...

Two issues with latest update for Windows

I have noticed 2 issues with the new update. When I have a file transfer I don't want, there is no longer a cancel link. Also, when saving a file transfer that I do want, it saved it to the default location and updated my preferences to always do that. It should respect the option setting to prompt me for a download location.

KenMadsen wrote:
My options are set to "choose a folder to save the file in each time", which is not being respected anymore. The above reply does NOT address the missing ability to cancel an unwanted file transfer.
Try again please.
As long as you have a bullet in "choose a folder to save the file in every time" then it will not save files to a folder or automatically accept incoming files. The main exception to that is the initiation of a file for the first time on the newer clients. If it pops up about the new automatic saving you would click on "settings" and toggle it back to you preferred setting. The only other exception to that are images. Images sent to you via a mobile are sent to the cloud and will be cached/downloaded into your media folder. That cannot be avoided. You can cancel ongoing transfers on your end but not pending transfers.
I made this graphic to better break it down:
If you find your Skype is not listening to your configuration changes beyond what was already mentioned, you can use the following program to reset your Skype configuration. You will need to exit completely out of Skype beforehand, otherwise the reset will be incomplete.

You can then rerun through the wizard, perform an initial file transfer, reconfigure your settings and those settings should hold.

I'm having a weird issue with iPhoto.

My MacBook is running OS 10.6.8 with iPhoto version 9.2.3.
A few months ago the motherboard of my previous laptop, an iBook, died. I put the hard drive in an enclosure and used Firewire to link it to my present MacBook. Somewhere along the way the vast majority of my photos disappeared from iPhoto. I see dotted line squares against a grey background when I open the application. Clicking on those squares produces a black field. Once in a while, an actual photo opens. If I scroll quickly through the grey squares, I see photos, which quickly fade back to the dotted line squares. I can make out many photos that I thought I'd deleted long ago. It's like some kind of data link was broken.
Connecting to my backup hard drive has been no help and I've opened iPhoto while holding down Command/Option to rebuild it.
What the **** is going on?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
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.

Audigy 2 ZS Gamer Splinter Cell (I have two issue with this ga

.) Hello, I got my soundcard for Christmas. I got around to playing Splinter Cell but I cannot update my game at all. The latest patch from UbiSoft .2b will not install at all. I get an error that tells me there was a problem with finding my version of the game. Does anybody here that also has an Audigy 2 ZS Gamer have this same issue with Splinter Cell? And is there anyway I can resolve this issue?
2.) I finished the game but during one of the extra mission called Vselka Infiltration, I get stuck after activating the PC in the compression room that raises the submarine. I would like to see if an update to my game will work but since I can't I have no idea how to complete this mission.
Please help me out if you can
Thank you

Bsoddart,
Try moving the Audigy 2 ZS to a different PCI slot and see if that fixes the conflict as this is most likely the cause of the problem.

ITunes issues with iPhoto

I've created a slideshow with iPhoto and have added music from iTunes. Further on I have put in start and stop points in some of the tunes, but apparently it takes a long time for the settings to update. Any ideas?
