IPhoto 9.4.3 builds but does not upload book

I have put together a book and I am trying to send it to be printed. I have checked for updates and I am good.

I have restarted iPhoto and I have also rebooted the computer. I have tried with the firewall both on and off.

Using the link below :

iPhoto "buy book" order fails at end of upload

I have deleted the NetServices in Keychain.

Find the "NetServices" entry in your Keychain Access window.
Select the "NetServices" entry and press the delete key.

I am running out of ideas.

Mac Pro (Mid 2010)

what exactly does happen? Does the book preview correctly - Preview a print project in Photos, iPhoto, or Aperture to avoid issues - Apple Support ?

Made the book in iPhoto. I try to send the book to be printed. I builds the book (first progress bar completes). It tries to upload the book. No progress is ever made. It always times out.

Currently it seems not to bepossible to have boks printed using older iPhoto versions. See this discussion:

I spoke to Apple support yesterday who advised that the photo book feature in iphoto is undergoing maintenance and was not able to advise when this would be available again. Has anyone had similar issues and if so did you find any workaround?

There have been several similar reports.

It still seems possible to print from iPhoto 9.6.1 on Yosemite. Would it be feasable for you to update?

I am currently using Lion. I would prefer not to update OS because I have older software that is not supported beyond Lion.

There's an online book printing service, PrestoPnoto, that advertises that it will print and bind books from iPhoto pdf files created according to this Apple document: Preview a print project in Photos, iPhoto, or Aperture to avoid issues - Apple Support

I've not used it so can't comment on it one way or the other.
