Why do 31 photos have to reload everytime I use my iPhoto?

I have the '06 version of iPhoto, but I don't think iLife offers enough for me to buy the 08 version. However, even though I'm using an outdated version, I don't think I should have to watch the same 31 photos reload EVERYTIME I use iPhoto. Also, as a part of the reloading process, I am continually asked if I want to load this or that duplicate.
How can I get these 31 photos PERMANENTLY reloaded, and how can I get the computer to stop asking me if I want to load the same duplicates? Incidentally, these 31 photos are not all of my photos, I don't know many are now in my iPhoto files, but there must be hundreds of them. I have no idea what makes these 31 special.

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'll have to try again tomorrow. Today, I did get as far as placing the library management file (I believe that's what it was called) in my applications folder and then taking whatever step I was supposed to. After that, I didn't get anywhere. The process seemed to take forever, but not knowing what to expect, I let it run for several hours. However, when I saw that no progress was being made, I stopped. I then went back to the beginning, and it was the same old problem: the same 31 photos had to be reloaded. This is where I came in, so I left. Maybe tomorrow I'll have better luck but I'm going to look for detailed instructions first. This is by no means an automatic process. One is continually confronted with decisions to make, and they are difficult to make when you don't understand the choices.

Potentially, yes. The standard Preview is 1024 pixels, longest size. Some people (like Omke) have displays 2560 pixels longest side, potentially increasing file size by over 500%.

Why do my photos have a green tint when placing them into Muse?

I am placing photos of portraits into Muse and the colors look terrible. There is a green tint that dulls down the pictures.Top is one of the originals, and bottom is a screenshot in Muse.

sorry maybe Im not making my issue clear...thanks for answering anyway:
over the last years- but 15 weeks specifically I have downloaded photos from my camers card- putting it straight into the apple mac and then opening IPHOTO then i am able to click and put the pics into my folders in IPHOTO but as of 2 days ago - the camera card went in, the pics opened BUT there is an error message which states iphoto cannot save them to file......as they are JPEGS
I can see that others too have had this issue and there are 'answers' but I am a complete novice and cannot understand the answers given and need someone to 'hand hold me' through a step by step this is what you must do....
so hope that now is cleared as to why there is a 'problem'
hope you can still help me thanks for you time

Why does my photo have a ! instead of viewing the photo when I double click on it? Some work some don't.

What is wrong with the photo?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
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 <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> 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 can you not have the same Siri voice used in the US version in the UK and Global search should be available

I have just recently purchased the new iPhone 4s and it is great.
I am now using Siri a lot,however I don’t like the fact that in the UK only the man's voice is available.
I think we should have a choice of a Lady / a man assistant and not just a man who's voice is the same/ very similar to the one used for voice control on the iPhone 4.
Now that we all know that Siri is useless without an internet connection then why only allow Siri to search for items, businesses, addresses etc only in the country you’re in i.e. the UK.
Where if you just go onto the internet or use the built in maps application you can search anything you self without restriction.
I think Apple should really consider thinkingabout this in there next software update for the iPhone 4s.

Why Doesn't Adobe Have a Cool Logo to Use?

I was looking for the "official" Adobe logo to place on my Photoshop portfolio with tagline "Built with Adobe" and can't seem to figure out what is their logo and where to download it.
The image searches all look like knockoffs.
Apple on the other hand, has the Iconic Finder face and Apple logos everywhere...does Adobe frown on people using their logo — why isn't it easily available (or am I somehow missing it)?
Where is it?

I agree about the Apple sticker. I have two in the side windows of my Bug. Actually they're more of an "ice breaker" than they are a way of saying Made on a Mac. My VW was made on an assembly line in Wolfsburg, Germany, but people see the stickers and they say, "Hey, I just switched to Mac!" And even if they don't know about forty-year-old air cooled german cars, they have something to talk about with me. Come to think of it, I can't recall ever seeing a "Windows XP" or "Vista" sticker anywhere but on the tower of a PC loaded with it. I've seen a few HP stickers, but they were on company cars, so I doubt it was solely product pride.
Here's a good example of why I don't stick logos on stuff anymore. The last four sites I built for people, I told them how I was going to be using CSS for layout design, PHP for their contact forms, Javascripts, and whatever else I was building. All fourof them said, "I don't know anything about any of that stuff. That's why you're building it and I'm not. They didn't really care if I built it on my MacBook or my Toshiba laptop, they didn't really care if I hand wrote the code, or if I let Dreamweaver do most of the back end work. As long as it looked right when I was done and they got a good place in a Google search, none of it mattered to any of them. As long as the header logo matched the company logo, they didn't care if I used Fireworks, Photoshop, or Corel Draw to put it together.
99% of the people you meet won't give a crap one way or another what you use to make what they want. As long as you make it the way they want, that's all that matters. My mother is a painter. She doesn't affix little stickers to her artwork with the labels from the paint and brushes she used. The people she paints for don't want or need to know what she used. They want their paintings. Can you imagine if McDonald's put little lettuce, tomato and beef stickers on your burger telling you what brand they used to make your lunch?
Steve Jobs has always had a different apporach to things than Bill Gates. That's why you pay less for OS X, (and there's only ONE version of it) than you do for Windows (which has anywhere from five to seven different builds). OS X doesn't require a product key and have a strictly enforced limit of five installs per disc, including reinstalls on the same system. And you can loan your OS X disc to a friend without having to call Apple for permission to install it first. I prefer OS X to Windows. I prefer iWork to Office. I prefer Photoshop to Paint or Corel Draw. But I'm not going to proclaim it to people who don't care. Here is about the only place I'll even mention it, unless someone brings it up in conversation.

Why won't photos from external drive stay on my computer (iPhoto) once I disconnect the external drive?

I'm trying to move photos from my external drive to my new computer. When I connect the external drive, I'm able to view all the photos in iPhoto, and I'm able to drag photos to a desktop folder and/or directly into iPhoto. But, when I disconnect the external drive, I no longer have access to the photos on my computer. I'm sure there's a step I may be overlooking but I'm using the same process I've used in the past and cannot determine next steps.

Thanks so far.
I'm currently working on a 2012 MacBook Air 13", running OSX 10.8.
Upon opening my external drive, I've dragged the iPhoto Library to my computer's desktop. When I've opened iPhoto and tried to import the library (from external drive and/or from the desktop), I'm unable to do so, i.e., the library is not highlighted (it won't allow me to click on it).
I can open and view the library from my external drive in iPhoto when the external drive is connected to the computer. But, once the external drive is disconnected from the computer, I'm unable to view the library
I've tried all of the aforementioned when the "Copy Imported Item(s) to the iPhoto Library" is checked.

Why do my photos on my iPhone show up twice in iPhoto?

When i connect my iPhone to my iMac all of my pictures show up twice. (with the same number i.e. IMG 101.jpg IMG 101.jpg IMG 102.jpg IMG 102.jpg)
If I select just one of the pictures to upload and delete from my phone both photos are deleted... If I select all then two photos show up in iPhoto. How can I fix it?

I had this issue as well. Quick fix - with iPhoto Open, disconnect your iPhone from the computer, then reconnect it. This resolved it for me (without having to update software as several other posts have suggested).

Why don't I have the screen resolution I used to have on my iMac 2400.

I used to have several screen resolutions on my iMac 2400, now I only have two, 1920 X 1200 and 960 X 600.
Because I am a senior, my eyes need a resolution that provides clarity and is not too small. 960 X 600
prevents me from using Microsoft Office because I cannot select all of the options i.e. when I want to
print because the options are beyond the window and I cannot access them. 1920 X 1200 is too small
for my senior eyes.
Please update the graphics driver with the resolutions I used to have. More and more
seniors use computers and the younger developers need to understand this otherwise
they will switch to PCs.
Thank you

I know some of my photos have NOT been imported in to the iPhoto library. How can I find which ones?

In error, for a period, I had iPhoto set up such that photos were not imported into the iPhoto library but left scattered around my iMac. How can I find which ones without selecting each individual photo - there are nearly 9,000?

Are you able to view them in full size in the library, i.e. don't get this
when you try to view the photo in full size? If you can then you can do the following to consolidate all of the master image files inside the library.
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.>Click on the Add Library button,
2 - select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
3 - make sure that in the rebuild window the checkbox "Scavange orphaned photos" is checked.
4 - now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
5 - in the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed. Click on the Create button.
Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
Note 2: Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

I have installed Apache Open Office. Each time I try to open, I have to go into security preferences. How can I get it to download and show up in my launchpad that I don't have to download everytime I use it?

I have unlocked it each time, relocked it and each time I go to use the program, have to go through this procedure. How can I get it downloaded to stay downloaded since it is from an unidentified developer?

You need to install it - just downloading does not necessarily install it. If you double click it, does it open an installer window? Or, can you simply drag it into your Applications folder (if it is not showing in Launchpad)?
FWIW, your downloads folder is just a temporary "holding" place for your downloads - once you have installed applications or moved other files where they belong, you can empty that folder.
PS - If this is what you downloaded, it is a disk image (.dmg) which means you need to double click it; you then need to move the icon and install it.
Out of curiosity: is it working well? I'm curious because it is rather dated software.

I just downloaded OSX Mavericks and all my photos have disappeared; it's telling me that iPhoto is no longer supported on my Mac. How do I get all my photos back?

Thanks!

Here's the current version of iPhoto. Try installing that, and see if things work better.
