Hi everyone
On going to Photos projects today, got this message - see image. Does this mean that you won't be able to order calendars and books directly through Apple in future. Did I miss something?
Thanks

VentureBeat has an article out today saying that RR Donnelley is the company printing Apple photos since 2005.
Mimeo is not named in this article, but someone above says their were 2 providers? I don't know why they would leave out one from the article.
Here's our recent press release with even more details about our partnership with Apple.
If you’ve ordered photobooks, cards, or calendars from Apple, there is a good chance that it was made by Mimeo.

Hi Old Toad,
Apple has partnered with Mimeo for years to provide its customers with photo projects. You can read all of the details in our recent press release.
Mimeo Photos offers the same Apple themes, book sizes, materials, and print quality. Users have access to additional features for designing and creating photobooks, cards, and calendars.

That's good to know. Do you offer the full, glossy dust jacket with books? If so do you prefer the production PDF file that Apple creates for uploading that has the full 32+" page for the dust jacket? That's available thru iPhoto 9.6.1 by holding down the Option key and clicking on the Buy button.
Yes, we do provide dust jackets for our hardcover photobooks.
Currently, we don't offer the ability to generate or import PDFs. However, this is a popular request and is a feature we are actively exploring for a future update.

Do you ship to Canada?
Yes, we do. Mimeo Photos offers international shipping, including Canada.
If you happen to be bilingual and in New Brunswick, Ontario, or Quebec Mimeo Photos supports language localization. This means that all text within the app automatically translates to support 12 languages including French.

Being able to generate a PDF would be a big plus in my world as I like to create a video DVD slideshow from the PDF file for each book I give as a gift.
Will the conversion function (Apple book to Mimeo book) be available in German version of Mimeo Photos?
In case it's available I guess I also can order in Germany.
Btw. the quality of conversion in current version is a disaster. I really hope this improves a lot to have a real copy of my former Apple projects.
I've downloaded the Mimeo Photos extension and was very pleased with the easy transition & options. I have started a photo book and have been working on it for the last 2 days. Today, when I try to open the project I get this: "
Project extension “Mimeo Photos” terminated unexpectedly." Any idea why?
Hi Sara.J.133,

I am having a similar problem since the recent update to Mimeo version 2.0.3.
When I try to create a new project I am just seeing the beach ball spinning after I select the book format.

Yes, our conversion service is in the works and will be released globally.
This means you will be able to convert your previous Apple photobooks to Mimeo Photos photobooks from Germany.

I missed the announcement (and press coverage) also, but that's how I read the message.
Isn't this just an encouragement to update to a newer version of MacOS ? don't get that warning on High Sierra.
Yes, Presto Photos will at least allow us to print the saved PDFs of our books.
Did you try reaching out help@mimeophotos.com? They're pretty responsive.
I've produced photobooks and cards with Mimeo Photos in the past - very pleased with the UX.
Is the photos built in print services finishing on September 30 2018
