Vcard contact photos are not imported in Snow iMac address book
I use the Address Book export feature to get all the contacts of my Lion MacBook Pro in a vcard file. This file contains the base64 coded photos of my contacts. When I import the vcard file in a Snow iMac, the photos do not show. Any suggestion?
Thanks
Hi -
This question has also been posed by others (if I am understanding you correctly). I have tried this myself and it seems the only workaround we can come up with. Go to this post where it explains the way this poster found how to make it bigger -

Whenever I import photos recently they will be in the Last Import folder but when I click my photo library they are not in it. And then when I go back to last import they aren't in there anymore. I have already lost a lot of pictures since I always select the delete off of memory card option after importing. I think it is ever since I upgraded to Lion. HELP!
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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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. .

I'm using Mail 5.3 and Address Book 6.1.3 on X 10.7.5. I want my contact photos to show up in the message list on Mail, but only some of them do, even though the message will link to the contact card in Address Book with the photo in it. I've even tried replacing a photo that doesn't show up with a photo that does show up for a different contact but no luck. I am syncing to one other Mac, an iPhone and an iPad via iCloud.

How to delete an iphone contact that does not show up in the address book
hello--
i am a new iphone 4s user and i had a quick question that i have not been able to find an answer to.
when i am using imessage, there are a few contacts that come up as options but yet they are not located in my address book or contacts list-- they are simply only an option when creating a new text imessage.
i would like to delete these contacts from the imessage list of options because they are numbers that i no longer need but i am not able to delete them.
someone please help me fix this problem so i can get rid of these contacts and not send any messages to them instead of the actual correct person!Do you see any exceptions listed?
* Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Exceptions
Do you see any empty entries in the Show Passwords window?
* Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"

Imported photos are not appearing in iPhoto...
Beginning in late August, all of my newly imported photos are not showing up in iPhoto. However, I see them within the iPhoto directory. Everything imported prior to late August is just as it should be. Does anyone know the cause of this and how to fix it? Thanks!
Damaged database.

When Lightroom greys out a photo in the Import dialog box, it means the photo is already in the catalog. It doesn't mean that it is matched with an older photo with the same name ... in order for there to be a match, the file name and capture date and file size must be identical.
So Lightroom thinks you have already imported the photos, and you think the photos have not been imported. Now I'm sure you are a very nice person, but I believe Lightroom. What you need to do is to find the photos in your Library Module and use them there. The photos can be found by searching for them by file name, after turning off all filters, and after clicking on All PHotographs in the Library Module. -
hi can I have a reply to above question: I just upgraded my old versionj 3 of photoshop elements to v13 when I import photos they are not imported in the same order they are mixeds up
In the documents screen - sorry, new to this so not sure if that's the right terminology... Basically the screen showing all documents, if you drag down, there should be two options at the of of the page: Date and Name. Select Name and your list should now be in alphabetic order.
Hope that helps. -
After Import photos are not visible in IPhoto
I have a problem with IPhoto 8 (7.1.5)
When I import photos from either the Iphone or a Photo DVD the photos are first visible. After closing and restarting Iphoto, Iphoto tells me, that some photos are not in the liabrary and will be recovered.
Both, the imported photos as the recovered, are not visible. If I'm opening the library file, the photos are still there and I can look at them.
Do you know how I can fix it?
(Background information: My HD crashed and I've got a knew one, the restorage of the photos was successful the problem started afterwards)
Thank you!No. He problem is with the library. Re-installing the app will make no difference to that.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Why does my iphoto continue to say " photos are being imported to the photo library" every time I try to close? I have not been imported and this has been keeping me from closing for weeks.
What Operating System are you running?
Mountain Lion there seem to be a glitch that continually ask this on quit.
You have Apple Menu ()>force quit>iPhoto -
I cannot close or import or any function to iphoto. I have been getting the same message for many days "Photos are being imported to the photo library. Please wait for import to complete." I do not know where the photos would be importing from. How do I get it to proceed?
After Force Quitting, as LarryHN recommended,
Select the iPhoto Library in the Finder. By default it is in your Pictures folder.
Ctrl-click or right-click the iPhoto lIbrary. Select "Show package contents" from the panel, that will pop up.
Look for a folder named "Importing" or "Import". Remove this folder, but don't touch anything else.
Then launch iPhoto again.
If iPhoto now is working again, check the folder you removed, if there are any photos that you want to keep and save them. -
my pc crashed and i lost all my pictures and music that was stored on the pc. now i have a new pc and when i log into itunes all my music and photos are not available. I guess i dont understand the pupose of itunes and its worth. I thought it backed up all my photos and music, but apparently not. So what do I use so that when i lose data on my pc i can retrieve it again at a later date or after a crash?/
Your content will only be where you put it. It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone: File>Device>Transfer purchases.
You can import your pics taken with the iphone as you would with any digital camera.
You can e-mail the other pics to yourself, they will never be of the original quality.
You can out a unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. You should get the option to merge the data when you sync. -
I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.something (something about the speakers) to get rid of a notification and it went into recovery mode!!! My photos are not backed up or on icloud. i havent restored yet because i cannot lose my photos/videos, etc. but tinyumbrella wont work to exit recovery mode. HELP! please:(
i tried tinyumbrella (and another similar software) to exit recovery but it only remains on the apple logo stuck there. please is there anything else i can do? i've contacted apple and they have told me the only choice i have is to restore and lose all my data.
my iphone isn't jailbroken and i've updated before without this problem so i'm not sure what has happened. is there anyyy hope please ???First I would try to hold down the power and the home button for about 15sec, but at least as long as the iPhone restarts, if it is still stuck or still in recovery mode then I can suggest you the tool "Wondershare Dr. Fone for iOS", it is both a Windows and Mac tool and I just used it today to get my iPad out of the Recovery mode.
Tell me if any of these options worked for you. -
Photos are not adjustable in Aperture v.2.1.4.
Photos are not adjustable in Aperture v.2.1.4.
17200 photos can not adjust?
This applies to pictures before 02/28/1910?
All the pictures have a yellow mark with a ! in the bottom right of the picture.
Also appears in the box Badger.
Also get the message "Image not found"?
What have I done?
Help me.Hi all.
Now everything is in order.
I had an upgrade of Aperture. It deleted a main folder called "All photos". Luckily I had saved the library to an extra hard drive. Imported the back and everything in order.
Was too much interested in looking at the World Championships in snooker. Sorry.
Thank you would help me.
I'm from Norway. Take a look at my kingdom, so you will understand why I take so many pictures.

Address Book Contact Photos will not sync over to iPhone 2G
So here is the deal. I just bought a new 21.5" iMac w/ Snow Leopard. I had a iMac G5 with Leopard previously and rather than using migration assistant, i just copied over the applicable folders and files (per my research) so that my contacts would be present on the new computer. Everything seems fine except the contact photos will not sync over to my iPhone. Has anyone run across this? Help is greatly appreciated!
Cheersany body?

my iPod touch needs to be restored. however, all of my movies/apps/songs/photos are not backed up on my computer because the shop on my computer does not work. can i still get the memory on my iPod touch 32gb back?
If you weren't able to sync the purchases to a computer previously and now your iPod needs to be restored so you can't sync it now, then you may be out of luck and will need to purchase your content again. Officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
You can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it.
Good luck.
