iMac, iPhoto question.
 

I'm trying to back up my iPhoto library onto my extermal hard drive (designed by Porsche no less) :p but I get the message that it can't be completed because "so- and so jpeg is currently busy". I don't have any images currently open or in use.
TIA.

I have had this happen when the external harddrive was not "ejected" properly the previous time you used it.

I also have the Lacie "Porsche" drive and a Mac - and I just drag photos from iPhoto onto the Lacie icon. Then when you're finished make sure to eject the Lacie icon by clicking on it and ejecting

thaks --I'll give it a shot.

or just force quit (relaunch) the finder. go to top left pull down under apple to force quit, select finder in the pop up and hit relauch.
