Weirdness when reviewing DVD photos in iPhoto

I have a 20" iMac purchased earlier this year. I have more than one library in iPhoto, and I back up each library to a DVD using the Share/Burn command.
When I insert a burned DVD into the iMac it shows up in the Source Pane of iPhoto. When I click on it the pictures show up. So far, so good, but then weirdness begins when I double click on one of the pictures to view it full screen. A small version of the desired picture appears on the monitor screen with the message "Loading photo.." below it. This is accompanied by a churning sound within the monitor which continues for about 40 seconds before the picture finally appears full screen. The churning sound then continues for about another 40 seconds before it finally quits. This process seems very strange to me. Why does it take so long for the full screen picture to appear, and what is the churning sound all about? Is this normal? I don't experience any of this weirdness when I normally review photos in my iPhoto libraries.

Bob:
Yes, that's about normal. The DVD read speed is not that fast, particularly when compared to viewing on our speedy internal HDs. A good alternative, budget providing, is an external FW HD. Great for daily incremental backups and for running other libraries from. Very cost effective insurance against loss of irreplaceable photos and other documents.
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. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • When ordering enlarged photos from iPhoto, must I purchase them one at a time and pay a shipping fee for each and very one of them.  Sort of a ripoff but I can't figure how to purchase many and pay one shipping fee.

    You may have better luck posting in the iPhoto forum if no one on this forum is able to assist. I'm sure you are doing something wrong though.

  • Why when I email photos from iPhoto do they not show in my sent items in my mail ?

    Why when I email photos from iPhoto using the share option does the email not show up in my sent items box in Mail. The emails are arriving ok but I do not have a record of the email being sent. Bit confused. I am new to my iMac .

    If you are using the iPhoto email client there is no sent mail box
    My suggestion is to set Mail as your email client and then you have everythin in Mail and have a sent mail box

  • When I export photos to Iphoto slideshow they crop more after each play. Is this common?

    When I export photos to IPhoto slideshow they crop more and more after each play. Is this common?

    No. In fact, I've never heard of it before.
    It might help if you could give us some details. What do you mean by "export photos to iPhoto Slideshow"? DO you mean you're adding photos to a slideshow in iPhoto? Or hat you created a slideshow in iPhoto and exported that to the Finder?

  • When I upload photos to iPhoto from my iPhone and then press delete from iPhone it does not delete them, how do I fix this?

    When I upload photos to iPhoto from my iPhone and then press delete from iPhone it does not delete them, how do I fix this?

    I am having the same problems as this person. I see that someone said there is no way to retrieve the pictures once it gets stuck in recovery mode.
    Then further along someone said that there are data retrieval methods except they have something to do with jail breaking a phone.
    My phone is already jail broken. It was kind of a gift from the company I work for- it was a fellow employees before. He jail broke it and then it was given to me. After I got it I activated the 4 and tried to back up everything. It didn't work and "Springboard" forced the phone into safety mode. So I could use it with the old dude's apps and my contacts. I made the mistake of using the phone for wedding dress shopping with a friend. I took tons of pictures.
    After this I found out the messages I was seeing meant it was jail broken. At&t said to force restore the phone - iTunes wouldn't recognize it in safety mode. I'm an idiot and didn't realize what this meant for my pictures. It didn't work (error 1611) - thankfully. Now it is stuck in recovery mode (iTunes icon and USB cable picture).
    Can I access that media in any way? It never suceeded restoring itself so is it still there? The phone is jail broken already so is there a method I can use?

  • When I email photos from iPhoto.....

    When I email photos from iPhoto (usuallly with some text as well) , the sent emails do not show up in the Sent file like they used to before updating to Lion.
    I can cc myself but I would much prefer to see each email as a regular sent email with the recipient readily visible.
    I send a lot photos to various people and find it annoying not to be able to see which photos I sent to whom unless I open each email addressed to me.
    Any suggestions?

    This is an iPhoto issue.
    In iPhoto menu
    iPhoto>Preferences>General-----> email photos using Mail.

  • When I 'share' photos from iPhoto to Facebook they don't appear on the Facebook newsfeed?

    When I 'share' photos from iPhoto to Facebook they don't appear on the Facebook newsfeed?
    The only way I can get them to appear on the Facebook newsfeed is to 'share' the album within Facebook. Does anyone know why iPhoto only puts the photos on my profile wall and not for people to view in the newsfeed?

    I'm having the same problem and I end up having to just post it the old fashioned way. Has anyone figured this out as they appear on my wall but not in my newsfeed???

  • When I email photos from iphoto(9.2.2) the recipients are unable to open the jpegs - why?

    When I email photos from iphoto (9.2.2) the recepients are unable to open the files, and command I tells me they are locked-
    How and where do I unlock them?

    You can't unlock files on their machines.
    iPhoto sends HTML emails and not every email application (or user) knows how to work with these.
    Send Plain text emails via Mail instead. That's pretty foolproof.

  • When you import photos into iphoto, is a copy also saved on hard drive?

    I photographed a wedding a couple months ago, and had all my photos edited, just needed to burn them to discs for the couple. Well when I opened up my iphoto (08 version I believe, also I'm running OSX 10.5.8 if it helps.) a few weeks ago to export them to a CD it had dumped all of my photos from the library, I had to search and search to find them on the drive. When I found them and imported them into Iphoto (here lies my big problem) nearly every one of them is thumbnail size. I've tried everything I know of, I tried resizing them and exporting them under a different file name, Nope. The worst part is it has replaced itself on the HD so that now both the iphoto and the HD copy are thumbnail sized. Some of them are still full size, but not all of them. Any ideas on what to do?

    The Original photos would be inside the iPhoto Library in the Originals folder.

  • Why do i get lines when i print photos from iphoto

    does anyone know why i get lines across my photos when i print them from iphoto to my HP printer. Photos are ok when i print from iphone or other? seems to have something to do with Iphoto??

    Go to your imports for the last 12 months then click on view>sort photos by date, that should group them together.  Click on the first picture in the group, then hold down your shift key then click on the last picture it should select all in between, then delete and empty trash. 

  • Original photos disappear when exporting retouched photos from iPhoto

    BACKGROUND:
    I have a folder of, say, 15 photos.
    I open them in iPhoto and retouch them.
    I export the photos and IMMEDIATELY am confronted with the message that they can't be exported because the originals cannot be found.
    I go to the original folder of 15 photos and it is completely empty.
    The missing photos aren't in the Trash, they are no-where. A search finds NOTHING but the ones in iPhoto.
    If I try to copy the photos in iPhoto and paste them into the original folder from which they came, they create ALIASes and the picture doesn't show up ... just a JPEG icon.
    If I export photos one at a time, the originals don't disappear, but if I try to export even two in the same procedure, all original photos disappear.
    Obviously, this is AWFUL because my photos are gone, vanished, nowhere to be found.
    What's wrong with my machine?
    (I don't even know what version of iPhoto I'm using ... how do I find that information?)

    "Please describe your work flow in some detail ..." (brace yourself)
    =====
    IN A NUTSHELL: Whenever exporting anything from iPhoto, the original photos in Finder VANISH. Poof! They're gone. Thus, I disagree with your and Terence Devlin's comment that  "iPhoto has no ability to manipulate files stored outside the iPhoto Library." My uninformed guess is that I need to re-install my OS or at least iPhoto.
    BACKGROUND: Yes, I held down the Option key when launching iPhoto and chose CREATE LIBRARY from the resulting menu. Ever since doing that, the problem is the same EXCEPT that iPhoto now hangs virtually EVERY TIME I try to export. AFTER deleting the original files, of course
    =====
    INITIAL STEPS LEADING UP TO THE EXPORT PROCESS:
    (1) From my camera, I import photos into a Desktop folder. Let's say, for this example, there are five photos (test1.jpg, test2.jpg, test3.jpg, test4.jpg and test5.jpg).
    (2) I open them in PREVIEW, manipulate them (some need to be rotated). I save all changes.
    (3) I need to remove some blemishes (hey, I'm not perfect). I select all 5 photos, CONTROL+CLICK and choose OPEN WITH ... iPhoto.
    (4) iPhoto opens, and test1.jpg, test2.jpg, test3.jpg, test4.jpg and test5.jpg are in a new UNTITLED EVENT.
    (5) As confirmation, I open Finder, navigate to the Desktop folder and confirm that the five original photos are still present.
    Now here's where things go awry and I'll outline everything I've done:
    NOTE: For all of these examples, I am not going to spend time to EDIT the photos in iPhoto. I am simply leaving the 5 photos I just imported untouched in an UNTITLED EVENT. (If I edit them, the results are the same, so I'm not going to waste my time.)
    EXAMPLE ONE: EXPORTING ONE PHOTO AT A TIME
    (6) I select test1.jpg (from UNTITLED EVENT) and choose FILE/EXPORT.
    (7) The EXPORT PHOTO screen appears, and, without making any changes to the default settings (Kind: Current,  Jpeg Quality: Medium, etc.), I select EXPORT.
    (8) A screen appears: ALERT - The photo test1.jpg could not be opened because the original cannot be found."
    (9) I choose FIND PHOTO and navigate to the original desktop folder containing the original 5 photos. I confirm that test1.jpg is there.
    (10) I choose OK.
    (11) The EXPORT PHOTOS screen appears reading, "test1.jpg already exists. Do you want to replace it?"
    (12) I select REPLACE and a screen appears "Exporting ... 1 of 1" and IMMEDIATELY another screen appears in front of that reading, "ALERT - The photo test1.jpg could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found." (You will recall that just seconds ago, it was definitely there!)
    (13) I choose FIND PHOTO ... and iPhoto hangs and must be shut down using FORCE QUIT.
    (14) Just for grins & giggles, I check the Desktop folder to be sure test1.jpg is still there ... and it is.
    EXAMPLE TWO: EXPORTING ONE PHOTO AT A TIME (and hopefully doing so w/o iPhoto hanging)
    (6) In iPhoto, I select test1.jpg (from UNTITLED EVENT) and choose FILE/EXPORT.
    (7) The EXPORT PHOTO screen appears, and, without making any changes to the default settings (Kind: Current,  Jpeg Quality: Medium, etc.), I select EXPORT.
    (8) A screen appears: ALERT - The photo test1.jpg could not be opened because the original cannot be found."
    (9) I choose FIND PHOTO and navigate to the original desktop folder containing the original 5 photos. I confirm that test1.jpg is present.
    (10) I click on OK.
    (11) The EXPORT PHOTOS screen appears reading, "test1.jpg already exists. Do you want to replace it?"
    (12) I select REPLACE and a screen appears "Exporting ... 1 of 1" and IMMEDIATELY another screen appears in front of that reading, "ALERT - The photo test1.jpg could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found." (You will recall that just seconds ago, it was SO present that iPhoto confirmed I wanted to replace it!)
    (13) I choose FIND PHOTO and navigate to the Desktop folder and, sure enough, there is no test1.jpg. One second ago, it was there but as soon as I chose REPLACE from iPhoto, it disappeared. I mean it's gone. It's not in the trash, it's not in the folder. It has vanished. Only test2.jpg through test5.jpg remain.
    EXAMPLE THREE: EXPORTING ALL 5 PHOTOS AT ONCE
    (I recreate the Desktop folder so it once again contains five photos ... test1.jpg through test5.jpg)
    (6) In iPhoto, I select all 5 photos (test1.jpg, test2.jpg, test3.jpg, test4.jpg and test5.jpg ... from UNTITLED EVENT) and choose FILE/EXPORT.
    (7) The EXPORT PHOTO screen appears, and, without making any changes to the default settings (Kind: Current,  Jpeg Quality: Medium, etc.), I select EXPORT.
    NOTE: In this example, iPhoto voluntarily navigated to the original Desktop folder ... it didn't make me search for the photos.
    (8) A screen appears: FILES EXIST - test1.jpg and 4 other files already exist at the destination. Do you want to replace them?
    (9) I select REPLACE and a screen appears "Exporting ... Exporting Image 1 of 5 and IMMEDIATELY another screen appears in front of that reading, "Alert, The photo test1.jpg could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found."
    (10) I select FIND PHOTO and navigate to the Desktop folder and the folder is complete empty. All 5 photos have vanished.
    ====
    QUESTION: Since all of my original photos have disappeared, how can I recreate them? I spent a month through-hiking the JMT this summer and you can imagine what a tragedy it was to find that virtually every one of my photos has disappeared and I have no way of replacing them. I can see them in iPhoto, but I can't bring them OUT of iPhoto and back into a Finder folder.)
    =====
    AS AN ASIDE ... when I have to FORCE QUIT of iPhoto, I am given the opportunity to REPORT or IGNORE. If I choose REPORT, a screen appears reading that the transmission failed and that I should "try again later." This has been happening for quite some time. I cannot create a connection between my computer and Apple to report any problems.

  • When I upload photos to iPhoto, I automatically have duplicates on my macbook.  One large image, one smaller image.

    How can I ensure I only upload one file when I upload photos from my camera to iPhoto?  Each photo image is so large that my startup disk is almost full due primarily to image files!

    When you import a shot to iPhoto you get the Original copied in, you get a wee thumbnail (which is what you see in the iPhoto Window). IF you import a Raw you may also get a Preview.
    All of these are necessary and required for iPhoto to work.
    If space is an issue you can run iPhoto from an external drive formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)

  • When I edit photos in iPhoto it deletes them

    Hi,
    I'm having an issue with iPhoto '09: when I edit my photos it deletes them. It doesn't seem to happen if I adjust the temperature or tint, but if I manipulate any elements between (and including) exposure and de-noise it deletes my photo. The weird thing is, it doesn't delete the thumbnail - this still appears in my iPhoto library. But if I click on the photo it comes up as totally black. If I want to email the photo it comes up as an empty jpeg. I can get the file back if I go into edit and reset my settings, but obviously I want to use the editor. I'm using an iBook, OS 10.6.8.
    Has anyone had this issue?
    Thanks!

    Same thing with clicking on thumb nail and getting exclimation mark. Some photos I could click on and they would show, but not all.
    Tried rebuilding library and useing time machine did not work. (I tried finding the missing photos in the Originals and Modified folders and they were not in there)
    So I did this. > Aplications. Then on the iPhoto icon you right click and click on the "Show Package contents". In the Package Contents among the files and folders there is one called "Data" (this one had an arrow indicateing it is a short cut) and there is one called Data.noindex. They both seem to have the same folders in them. I clicked on the Data folder and clicked on the folder with the year I was looking for. Then clicked on the folder for the month I wanted. All the pictures were in there. I copied that particular month folder and go back to the iPoto Library and paste the copied file into the Originals Folder. If there was that month in the Originals folder, I would just replace all the photos for that month. I quite iPhoto and restarted it and they are still in there.
    Now I am happy and I hope this will make others happy as well.
