• Photos app cannot import iPhoto library

  My iPhoto library is quite large, 32 GB for 9 500 items.  I've recently updated my operating system and related applications, and when I use the Photo app to import the old iPhoto library, it shows 'Prepare the library' and starts the import process, but hangs up to 24% each time.  When I look in the pictures folder, I find a folder called "Photo library" normal which is fully navigable (I don't have to display the contents of the package), and find a file titled 'Masters' who is the same size as the iPhoto 'Originals' folder.  I then tried to circumvent the import process by default app Photos, creating a new library, and then import the file of masters - it finds about 9 100 files to import, short of 9 500 originals).  If I anything I'll miss 400 originals, not to mention the modified in iPhoto versions.

  I found a lot of people pointing out the import problems, but none that hangs up the same and every time, and no one Ive seen publishes the solution.

  What version of iPhoto do you have?

  Where your iPhoto library?

  Abd you are not importing the iPhoto library - you migrate - if she has not moved on initial launch drag the iPhoto library to Photos icon in the Dock

• BlackBerry App cannot add contacts on whatsapp on z10

  Can someone tell me please how to add contacts on the z10 blackberry whatsapp.  My old whatsapp contacts that were on my old phone appear with the name - but I can not enter all new contacts - faves tried and everything.  You can only manually enter the phone numbers for cat - which is very annoying.  My whatsapp contacts are on my list of regular contacts.  BlackBerry also has to offer the possibility of whatsapp for contacts, as they do with sms, email, options when you view a contact.

  Here's the process:

  (1) enable WhatsApp Messenger to access your contacts database (this is done in the Z10 security options)

  (2) create a contact base (I use one that is related to my email provider, GMail)

  (3) in this database of contacts, create a new entry with a mobile phone number

  (4) after some time WhatsApp will display this contact in the contacts tab. And when that person will use WhatsApp, on their side, the contact will also be in the tab Favorites (so no need to type in their number and more).

• How to import contacts app Windows 8 people in Thunderbird?

  Need advice on how to import contacts into Thunderbird on WIndows 8 - problem seems to be that the people soft in windows 8 is so dumbed down you can't export contacts her. I also can't find the data files in the C:/users/user directory or any what subdirectory of that.

  If the questions are:
  1. where are my contacts in Windows 8?
  2. How can I get these in csv format for import into Thunderbird?

  Thank you very much in advance for your help on this.
  J

  I think that you need to access contacts via browser in your hotmail/outlook/live account: click on the "Services more" menu drop-down next to the Outlook button, then click on people, click Manage / export and save the WLMContacts.csv file.

  To import into TB, see this post: http://gsfn.us/t/2rr4x

• Contacts app - cannot add a group contact

  Contacts app needs a bit of love programmer.

  I am trying to create a new group of contacts (* no * a "Smart group").

  I created the (file-> new group) group.  Tried to created in the section of the sidebar and "on my Mac" iCloud Same behavior.

  I select "All Contacts" and enter a keyword to search for. If the contact is not in the Contacts, but is in the Mail, you * must * "Add to Contacts" entry allows you to drag the contact into a group.

  You * might * be able to do it once or twice, but soon the Contacts won't you allow to drag anything else in the new group you created.

  If you leave Contacts and re - open, you can add one or two people, and then it stops once to answer more trolling.

  All this experience?  Or a solution?

  Hi there, Mark Rushton!

  Contact groups can be quite practical, and I understand your message you are having a little trouble to create yours--you cannot drag contacts you want in the Group shortly after. I know it's important to be able to create these groups with all you need, and I have a few steps, we can try troubleshooting.

  1. Exit the Contacts App. Hold down the SHIFT key on your keyboard. While now Shift, re - open Contacts. Try to add to your group again.
  2. Restart your Mac. Click on the menu  Apple in the upper left of your screen, then select "Restart" in the menu dropdown. When the computer is back on, Contacts open and try to add to your group again.
  3. Test of a new user account. This will help determine if there is no data that could cause a conflict. Instructions on the configuration and test in a new user account can be found in the article from the link below.

     How to test a question in another account on your Mac.

  4. Try to create your group in Mode without failure. Use the following article to help get into Safe Mode. Even if the title is not specific to your question, it's still a big step to take. Safe mode runs checks on your system and prevent execution that might be the cause of some software conflicts.

     Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning

  Have a great day!

• How to load images in the 'People' app that has all my contacts and a lot of white sillouettes. Very frustrating! Rodcliff

  I tried every way I can think to get photos in this app and all the photos that I need are on the same computer, in 'Photos' photography only in that I can put my own photo account. None of the settings or the app command bar downstairs offer me the option. I'm stuck.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your question on the Forums of community of Microsoft. We are here to help you with all your Windows questions or issues.

  You mentioned that you are unable to load the photos to the App to people with all your contacts in it and it is showing a white figure some of these contacts.

  What exactly are you trying to do? You try to set pictures to your contacts, showing the white figure?

  If you try to put photos of your contacts, showing the white figure in the people App, then I'm sorry to inform you that this can be done with the people App. This is because; the people App does not work like the other application to management of Contact where the contacts are stored in a local file on the computer. In People Soft, contacts are not saved to a local file. It is linked with the online account of that special person that you added to the App people.

  For example, if you add your Facebook account to the people App, all contacts that it will be shown in the people App, but they are not saved locally. It is just linked to your Facebook account. Thus, the image of a particular contact will change unless the account holder he spends his account.

• Gmail to people app contacts sync problems

  Hello

  my gmail email account has synchronized with the Mail app without problem (although I seem to have two accounts installed, and they are both the same!), but it won't export my contacts to the people app. I followed all the online help which merely says that if my google account is listed under 'accounts', then I'm done! But still no contacts in the people application.

  Can anyone help?

  Hi Juliet,.

  Added the account to the Mail app should get automatically synchronized on soft People. The people app collects "contacts", it is possible to have several lists, if there is more than one account.

  This problem can occur if the people app is not updated. I suggest you to refer to the help article and check if it helps.

• Why can I not add a yahoo email account to "People" app?

  I'm trying to follow the instructions to activate the application of people to see all the contacts in my mail.  but when I try to add an account, the only choices are Hotmail, Twitter, Outlook and Google, none of which I use.  Sorry, but I use Yahoo and I'm happy with it.  So, I am correct that I can't add yahoo contacts to the people?

  I created a yahoo email link in the pane on the start page email and it works, but only to see and read the mail - I can't send mails (except in typing an address) because my contact list was not imported.  It seems so if I can only use it efficiently using the browser.  Which is OK, but not what I thought was intended... Did I something wrong?
  Thank you!

  PS: Later, after this announcement, it dawned on me that this could really be a software issue, so I'll also it posting in forum Windows RT.  Thank you.
