Use of digital movie picture in iphoto book. Can it be done?
Mac OS X 10.3.9 Mac OS X (10.3.9)
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
As Terence stated you can create a still jpg from any frame in the movie. The resolution of that frame will be 640 x 480 pixels. This is way to small to print at a reasonable quality. At 180 dip the printed size would be 3.5 x 2.66 inches. You'll get a low resolution warning for nearly all the frame sizes in the book but it you really want that picture in the book you can use it. It'll just be grainy.

How do you move pictures from iPhoto to an SD Card on a late 2011 Mac Book Pro 15 inch?
How do you move pictures from iPhoto to an SD Card on a late 2011 Mac Book Pro 15 inch?
Do you have a SD slot? If not you get a USB to SD memory card adpater at the computer/office/online store and use that.
It appears as a drive on your machine and you can use Export from iPhoto or drag and drop methods too.
Make sure you backup

I have been trying to move pictures into iphoto and am now receiving a message the say I "cannot open the application iphoto because the classic environment is no longer supported."
Launch iPhoto the the Option key held down and create a new library. See if you can import those photos into it. If you can then your current library is damaged.
If that's the case make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the three fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
2. delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in the Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select last three options.
Fix #3
Use iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/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. -

how to move pictures from iphoto to word
Word cannot store pictures - do you mean, how to use the photos in your iPhoto Library in Word documents?
Use the Media Browser in Word - when you select to insert a photo, you can open the Media Browser like this and browse your photo libraries - iPhoto, Aperture, ...
Sorry, my office applications have a german language interface, but the icons should be the same.

all my pictures in iPhoto got deleted and i don't know how to get them back so could anyone help me with that ??
We do need more information to help. Are the images gone from your iPhoto library, or is the iPhoto Library missing? How and when did this happen?
If images are missing from the library: Did you check for hidden photos? Did you check the iPhoto Trash?
If the pictures are still in the iPhoto Trash, open the Trash, select the images and and press the liitle arrow in the lower right corner - select "Put back".
If the pictures are still in an "iPhoto" folder in the system Trash (with sub folders named by date), import these folders to your iPhoto library.
Have you checked, if you have opened the correct iPhoto Library? Launch iPhoto with the options key held down, to select another Library.
If the entire Library is missing, have you searched for ".photolibrary" with spotlight?
Do have a backup?
If none of these easy measures helps, report back with more details - your iPhoto version, and anything else that might be helpful to find out, what the problem is. Don't do anything that changes the contents of your hard drive for now.

IPAD2 users, how do I crop/drag profile pictures in Facebook? Facebook gives me the option to drag the picture but it just can't be done.
Well thank you for your honesty. Apple requires you have to have a Mac to develop iPhone apps, ergo my foray into OS-Xland. No way around it that one except for running OSX in a VM, which would have probably saved me some quid, true enough.
BUT for those interested parties: VirtualBox has a startup script in /Library/StartupItems/VirtualBox that will prevent OSX from fully booting on the initial (and required) rEFIt boot cycle. Once I temporarily moved that out of the StartupItems rEFIt went in as expected.
FYI, the openSUSE desktop running native is a little peppier than OSX native which was a nice surprise. Now if the Mac just had more open source software we would have a deal. (: -
Digital Camera for great iPhoto book quality
I want to start making iPhoto books, calendars, and cards and was looking to buy a new digital camera in order to do this. I was wondering how many megapixels I should get in order to ensure high quality pictures when I have the books printed out.
Thanks..... Be happy with your budget. I had a nice Canon that sold for under $300, as I recall. My pictures and videos came out looking wonderful, I feel. (So did others) Unfortunately, it was eventually ruined, by my very hard use under awful weather conditions. I wasn't always careful. It just went off to recycling heaven.
Shooting nature shots, I must say that I did see other people's pictures that were better than mine. Gosh knows how much those big cameras with telephoto lenses and super-fast shooting cost.
Those cameras are almost unfair competition, since these people could simply put the camera on auto, aim at a moving subject and start shooting multiple pics per second. Of course one of them would catch this or that bird in flight with a fish in its mouth, for example. Fantastic Picture! Yet, it was the camera that made the pic, not the photographer, IMHO.
Eventually, I just called them nature paarazzi, and enjoyed myself despite some rude laughter at my real mistakes. Still is fun. Some photographers are just cruel, but that's different story. -
I cannot move pictures from iphoto to the desktop
I have a MacBookPro.
I cannot take pictures from iphoto and then drag them somewhere else, whether its on the desktop, in a folder or on a usb key: they do not want to more out of iphoto.
I have tried to put my computer to sleep and wake it up: it doesnt work.
I have tried to 'export' the photographs: it doesnt work.
I cannot afford to loose any of these photographs therefore reseting my iphoto is not an option.
help please!
Thank YouYou do not ever directly access the contents of the iPHoto library - use the media browser - in the lower left of the insert window under media ==> photos ==> iPhoto
See the user tip on accessing your iPHoto files for more info -- https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/iphoto?view=documents

IPhoto book: Can I use less than 20 pages? and other questions...
Is 20 pages the minimum? I have just eleven photos. Is there a workaround for this? Also, the iPhoto preview looks fine, but I'm wondering what the file specs need to be. My original files are approx. 15 MB TIFF. Should they be jpeg? Resized? Does iPhoto (or Kodak) do this automatically? Thanks for any help.
TW3:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. 20 pages is the minimum. I think it's due to the minimum number of pages that can be bound. I really doesn't matter about the tiff files as iPhoto creates a PDF file for uploading and printing. Just be sure they are RBG and not CMYK.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance. -

Faces is not a standard and has no place to go in metadata - in iPhoto you can export including much of the metadata by chencking all of the boxes when you export - no idea at all what iDVD does - better to ask in the iDVD forum

I updated my OS from 10.6.4., to 10.8.2. I want to buy iDVD and iMovie, but I bought iPhoto and can't get it to work yet. I'm hesitant to buy the others without now having the original applications on my laptop. Do I need to buy the older versions first? They are probably on my Snow Leopard install disc, but I am now running Mt Lion that I bought, and downloaded a few days ago...so I don't want to insert the old OS disc, thinking it might want to reinstall the old OS... Thanks,
KathyH-PDownload 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. -

In iPhoto, how can I find a particular event using the search function?
NO - read my last answer over a year ago
That is because iPhoto is all about photos - not about files
You do not access the piles in iphoto - you access the photos using either iPhoto or the media browser - see this user tip for photo access details

I recently moved pictures from my ipad to my iphoto library on my Macbook Pro computer. I want to now use these photos to sell on EBay. What are the steps I need to do to move these from one place to the other. This needs to be in laymans terms as my husband and I are new to this. Thanks for help.
Put the photos in an iPhoto album. Use the File ➙ Export ➙ File export menu option and export them to a folder on the Desktop. From there you can upload them to Ebay via your browser.

How long should it take to upload pictures for iPhoto books
I have created a book for Christmas on iPhoto. The book is 100 pages. There are two steps to the process of sending in your order.
1. Assembly (which it assembled no problem, under 30 min)
2. Upload (it shows a bar and a blue line moves as it uploads)
I have been uploading for 2 days now and I am 1/4 of the way there. Now while I am waiting for it to upload I cannot do anything with my iPhoto pictures. Which is a problem since I take pictures for my school and I need to edit pictures by Tuesday.
It states under the "Uploading book to the store...." Note: Any interruption of the upload process will cancel your order.
I have enough memory that this should not be the problem. I have turned off every application, restarted my computer, checked for updates. Nothing helps. I have had to cancel this order 3 times now and restart the process as I needed to use iPhoto for school projects.
This should not take more than 2 days! What is going on? Any help would be wonderful. Thank you

OS X Yosemitie
Version 10.10.1
2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 DuoTwo days is way too long for the upload, unless you are having a very slow Wi-Fi.
There may be a something interfering with your connection to the Print Products Store (Anti virus software, firewalls), or you have included unprintable items.
Is the PDF preview of your book correct? Make a review and check it carefully for missing items, see this help page:
iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture
If the preview is alright, try to upload your book again in Safe Mode. That will disable non standard extensions, and prevent them from interfering with your connection to the Print Products Store:
