When I try to use places, iPhoto tells me I'm not connected to the internet. However, I certainly am connected to the internet, and everything else works fine. I'm using the latest version of iphoto (version 9.1.5)
There have been other threads with the same problem, but they are all archived now and as far as I can see, no solution has been provided for the problem.
thanks.

It has been solved many times - most often it is solved by eliminating a gatekeeper like Little Snitch - do you have something LikeLittle Snitch loaded on your system?

Thanks for your suggestions. No, I do not have anything like that.
I wonder if you could give me the URL of the discussion where this has been solved.
I appreciate your help.

Search teh iPhoto forums for many more
If the internet works form Safari and not iPhoto then you have something blocking it
What are you trying to do when you get that message

I'm not trying to do very much. I'm just starting to figure out how to use these features. Up to now I've been using iview.
All I do is click 'PLACES', and I get a big banner saying I'm not connected to the internet. I thought there might be some iphoto preference that I have to toggle, or something.
I'll take a look at that link you gave me and see if it throws any light on this mystery.
I appreciate your prompt replies, but I should say that I haven't actually figured out a use for Places yet, so it is not particularly urgent.
Dude,
If I ever, EVER, EVER!!! see you walking down the streets of melbourne....I will give you the biggest fist bump of all time. It would be an epic fist bump like no-other!!!! thank you!
