Anyone had this issue with Flickr?

So I uploaded about 41 images and created an album (or tried to). After arranging the images as I wanted them in the album, I went to save changes and got this error:

Quote:
There was an error and the album was not created: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <rsp stat="fail"> <err code="2" msg="Invalid primary photo id ()" /> </rsp>


Anyone who uses Flicker here ever had this issue? Any idea what might be causing it?

For the last couple of months, Flickr has been having lots of problems. I would wait a day and try again. If you still have problems, send a note to their help desk. They got back to me in a few hours and fixed the problem I was having (a different problem). They will get back to you quicker if you are Pro (ie. paying member), which I am. Good luck.

Flickr had the hiccups lately. The same thing happened to. I just waited a couple of hours, and everything worked fine.

Thanks, I'll do that. I am a pro member.

For the last two weeks, I have had one continuing problem with uploading MP4 videos. Customer Service has been very responsive but there is still no fix after trying all of their suggestions so far. Basically, only the smallest of my videos have loaded. I got another suggestion this morning that I will try 🤞🤞🤞 P.S. Have not had problems loading pictures, just videos. Most recent album had about 190 pictures with no snags.

Well, it's good to know that from the replies thus far that I'm not the lone ranger.

I haven't tried to upload a big bunch of images lately, nor to make a new album. I have, however, had other problems, such as Notifications not showing anything at all on my iPhone app. I sent them a note, and, although I received no communication back from them, a couple of hours later it began working normally again.

There is a flickr Help forum where one can see problems other Flickr users are having and, sometimes, Staff responses:

Basil, I have not had any issues and upload continually to Flickr. I am controlling Flickr from LRC Publish Services. This includes removal of content. I also post many shots on FB and control the FB feed from Flickr. The system is working well. Using LRC might help.

Best response yet.

Folks on UHH are lucky to have at least one person with a good response. I'll bet some here are saying to themselves, "Why didn't I think of that?"

Good job Ricardo!
