Web Gallery strangely rearranging/deleting some photos in iPhoto 7.0.2?

Hi - I created a Web Gallery with iPhoto and .mac... Now whenever I try and edit the gallery in iphoto it duplicates, rearranges, and even sometimes deletes photos at randomly. I'll move one photo to the first position, and 5 seconds later it will automatically rearrange the photos randomly. Occasionally when I open iPhoto all/some of the photos in the Web gallery will have been duplicated. When it duplicates a picture in the Web Gallery folder, deleting one duplicate for some reason deletes BOTH.
Anyone else experiencing this? Know what to do about it? It makes the .Mac Web Gallery totally and completely unusable.

Jeremy:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder. See if that will correct the problem.
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.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • I backed up my iPhoto library to my EHD then deleted some photo in iPhoto on my iMac to make more HD space. I want to back up iPhoto again to my EHD again but do not want it to overwrite the whole library. How can I make sure it backs up the new photos

    Ok so how can i just back up the newer photos to my iPhoto library on my EHD? If it overwrites the backed up library it will delete the older photos that I backed up and then deleted from my iMac HD.

    Do you want to back up only your photos and not your current library? Then you will not get a backup of your albums, books, calendars, ..
    A lot ofyour organizational work will not be backed up, if you only save the newer photos.
    To find the new photos create a smart album:
    From Photo's main menu bar:  File > New > Smart album
    and add a rule: Date is after ....  ; enter the date of your last backup.
    Then export the photos from this album to a folder on your backup drive.
    File > Export > Original
    But it would be much better simply to copy the iPhoto library to the external drive, after renaming the older library, so that it will not be overwritten.

    You might consider to let TimeMachine do the work and keep track of changed versions.
    Use Time Machine to backup the library regularly, so you always can restore a current version aand can find older photos that have been deleted, and make occisiona snapshots of the whole library on a second backup drive.

  • I have mistakenly deleted some photos. Is there a way of recovering them? No time machine is being used.

    I Hvae mistakenly deleted some photos. I am not using time machine and I have been advised there is some data recovery software that may bring the photos back. Can any one help please.

    Hi, John. Here is a direct link to the web site of Data Rescue 3's developer. You can download the demo version from there and use it to see exactly what the full version would be able to recover.
    http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php
    Do NOT go to a recovery service before trying this. A service will cost a minimum of ten times as much as the full version of Data Rescue, and if there is plenty of free space on your hard drive, the likelihood that the small downlod of Data Rescue will overwrite data you hope to recover is pretty small.
    CSound's point is well taken about not using the computer before downloading and running Data Rescue. You are much more likely to overwrite files you want to recover if you use the computer before making the attempt.
    Note that you must have a second hard drive on which to save whatever you recover. You can't save recovered files on the same disk they're being recovered from.

  • I'm trying to download a movie, but I keep getting message error that I have no more room and that I must delete some photos or videos in order to download more movies. How do I delete the videos in order to order more?

    I'm trying to purchase and download a movie, but I keep getting message error that I have no space. The error states that I must delete some photos or videos in order to download. I've gone to iPod then edit and deleted some videos, but I'm still getting the message. What is the correct way to delete the videos and should they still be there.

    They wont still be there if you delete them,but if you have those same photos on the main computer.

  • I can't delete some photo/video iPhone 4S iOS7.0.4 (11B554a)

    Hello,
      I am not able to delete some photos and videos on my iPhone 4S, (32gb, ios 7.0.4).  It is 3gb worth of videos and photos.  The photos are not in my camera roll (i deleted that to zero) and the videos are not in the video app.   When I go to album view I cannot delete some albums, I can delete some but not others.  There is a folder/album called video and that is where I have a bunch of videos.
      I tried to go to iTunes and just resync my photos to nothing (sync with selected photos and select nothing) and that is not working because iTunes is saying that it is not Authorized.  I try to re-authorized the computer only to be told that it is authorized.  I backup and sync again and basically cant even sync my iphone anymore.  Backup yes, sync no.
      This must be an ios7 problem because I had no trouble before.
    How can I delete the 3gb worth of photos and videos?  how can i delete the albums that are not offered to delete ?
    thanks for any input!
    Olias

    Never mind guys, I found out how to fix my problem. The problem I had was that I downloaded an app on my iMac, and used it to import videos and pictures from my ipad to my computer because for some reason, it wouldn't sync, and I didn't want to use the cloud. Anyway, I had to go on my iMac and delete it from the app I downloaded and viola! The videos that I wanted to delete are all gone

  • HT4847 i deleted some photos from my camera roll on ipad by mistake trying to get more icloud storage.  can i get them back?

    I was trying to free up icloud storage in order to back up my iphone 5 using my ipad.  I mistakenly deleted some photos from my camera roll and they were deleted from both iphone and ipad photo albums.  Can I retrieve them somehow or are they gone forever?  Now I read that doesn't help to free up space...not sure what does free up space so I can back up my phone again.  Help!

    Are you sure you deleted them from your camera roll and not from photo stream.

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has some steps you can take if your iPhone isn't being recognized by your computer or iTunes:

    You cannot unless you backed up your phone. If you had PhotoStream on, they might still be there as well.

  • I deleted some photos by mistake, can i get them back?

    i deleted some photos by mistake, is there any way to get them back?

    Hi,
    First, don't give up and DO NOT restore your ipad. That will guarantee your pictures will be gone. Can you give more info? Has it been synced with itunes before/after you took the pictures? Please let us know all info including whether or not you use icloud backups.
    Meanwhile, you might want to read this - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5463971?start=0&tstart=0.
    More info might help you get more specific info to retrieve your pictures.
    Also, I just googled the question "how retrieve deleted pictures from ipad" and a list of sites/links came up. I haven't/don't have time to read them right now, but if you google it you might get some answers. However, don't act too fast. Know the source of the links and consider those sources. Read them and user reviews/responses to see if the different solutions work.
    Hope this helps.

  • PSE 10 Error Message, when I try to delete some photos.  Can delete others normally.

    I recently have not been able to delete some photos.  Didn't make a copy of the actual error message. Will record more info the next time I get the message. Have more than 60,000 photos in my database. any ideas, suggestions at this point ?

    Use File...Catalog to open the Catalog Manager.  Highlight your catalog in the lower section of the dialog and hit the "Repair" button.  Repair the catalog anyway, even if it says there's nothing to repair.  Then repeat, using the "Optimize" button.

  • I want to delete some photos of the user pictures. Where can I find them?

    I want to delete some photos of the user pictures. Where can I find them?
    I mean those pictures, which come on when clicking on the user-picture, here "latest".

    Unfortunately I don't speak German.
    Go back to Recents (Letzte), select a picture, and then hit the delete key. Delete all that you want to. At this point the 'Done' button will be grayed out.
    Click the Show All button at the top left.
    Then go back to see if the user pictures were removed. It worked for me.

  • Why do I get the spinning ball when I try to delete some photos?

    Why do I get the spinning ball when I try to delete some photos?
    I then have to Force quit everytime.
    What should I do?

    Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). A Finder Window should open with the file selected. Does it?
