If you are receiving an error message such as "FlickrDest#processSyncItem: check source path - source file does not exist path=<path>", please download the latest release. The way PhotoCopy handles this issue has been changed in PhotoCopy 1.0.4. In versions before 1.0.4 PhotoCopy would post this error message and stop the copy. In PhotoCopy 1.0.4 and later photo copy will post a warning and then continue with the copy. The warning will look something like:

Image 'Test.jpg' was not uploaded. Could not find file at '<path to Test.jpg>'

Downloading the lastest version of PhotoCopy does not make this issue go away, it just changes the way PhotoCopy handles the issue. This issue happens when the iPhoto library says that a file is at a certain location but it is not. It is an internal iPhoto problem which should be addressed. You should still try to diagnose and fix this problem in your iPhoto library, because if PhotoCopy cannot find the file where iPhoto says it is, the file cannot be uploaded to your Flickr account.

Fixing the underlying problem with missing files in your iPhoto library is beyond the scope of this article. Here are some things which may help:

  • Try viewing the item in question in iPhoto. Double click on the item in iPhoto to view the full sized image as the thumbnail file may exist but the full sized image file may not. iPhoto displays the thumbnail when viewing events and albums and the full sized item when you double click on the file in an event or album.
  • Try searching apple.com/support for your specific problem.
  • Read the Apple Support article on rebuilding your iPhoto Library.
  • Contact Apple support.
