My Photos are not showing up in IPhoto 9.6. I am using Yosemite.

My IPhoto says it is 9.6. I am using Yosemite. When I clicked on IPhoto in my dock, it comes up, but there are no photos. Same if I click in Applications. I was able to bring in 1 event and 9 photos by highlighting them, but now I don't remember where I found them. And I don't want to do that for 5,000 photos anyway. Please help!
Thanks

I'm sorry, I guess I don't know the correct terminology and I don't understand how things work.
When I click on Seagate HD on my desktop, and then All My Files, it says I have over 8,000 images. I see my pictures there. If I go down the list and click on Pictures, I see the list of 1125 items with names, dates and sizes. If I go down two more on the list to Applications and click on IPhoto I see Oct. 21,2014 and 1.7 GB, and can see the 23 pictures and 2 events that I have moved there today.
If I click Time Machine and open Preferences it shows Seagate HD as my Backup Disk. If I enter Time Machine the only reference to IPhoto in the list is iphotoqt.pdf Aug. 2, 2012. If I go down to Pictures there it shows the same list of 1125 Items as the Seagate.
If I launch IPhoto while holding the option key I get one option: IPhoto Library (Default).
Is there something else I need to find for you to help me?
Thanks so much!

After migrating data from Time Machine, some of my photos are not showing up in iPhoto. I get a 'dashed rectangle." When I click on it I get ' ! in a Triangle" When I click on that, I actually can see the photo. I want to see my photos

After migrating data from Time Machine, some of my photos are not showing up in iPhoto LIbrary view. I get a 'dashed rectangle." When I click on it I get ' ! in a Triangle" When I click on that, I actually can see the photo. I want to see all my photos in 'Library' view, and I can't figure out how these photos seem to be arbitrarily hidden. Help, please.

Try these for the first attempt:
First be sure to have a backup copy of the library if you already don't have one.

TS3989 my photos that i took on my ipad are not showing up in iphoto or aperture

I have photos that I took on my Ipad that are in photos. They are not showing up in Iphoto or aperure on my Mac? All software is up to date,photostream turned on on mac and ipad....is there something else I need to do?

OK, you'll have to upgrade to iPhoto '11, available in the Mac App Store, in order to get photo stream and shared photo stream on your Mac. After doing so, you'll be able to go to System Preferences>iCloud and check Photo Stream. Then your photo stream photos will appear in iPhoto on your Mac.
As mentioned earlier, photos added to photo stream more than 30 days ago can be added to a shared photo stream (as discussed here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99), then invite yourself as a subscriber and they will appear in iPhoto as well.
Be sure to check Automatic Import in iPhoto>Preferences>Photo Stream if you want your photo stream photos to automatically be added to your iPhoto library as well.

Photo stream not showing up in iphoto

Upgraded iPhone 4 to iOS 5 and enabled photo stream and upgraded iPhoto on my MacBook Pro and enabled photo stream on it as well but new pics taken on iPhone are not showing up in iPhoto. Any ideas?

I am having exactly the same issue so would be very keen to find out how to fix it.

Mountain Lion, photos are not showing up in photo stream

I recently installed Mountain Lion, now photos are not showing up in photo stream on the computer. What should I do?

Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

My photos are not showing up as layers in the layers panel, only as one layer, so I can't make any changes to the layers. Does anyone know why this is happening? Am I downloading them from my camera wrong?

My photos are not showing up as layers in the layers panel, only as one layer, so I am not able to make changes to the layers. Does anyone know why this is happening? Am I downloading them from my camera wrong? I have watched the video and the photos don't open that way on my layers panel. Any help would be appreciated, I would like to edit out the background and turn it a different color.

Any help would be appreciated, I would like to edit out the background and turn it a different color.
Photos from cameras or scans have only one layer (the 'background' layer).
You can start with that 'background' layer and duplicate it or add other layers in the editing process. For instance you can make a selection of a subject and put it on another layer; a common use is to desaturate the 'background' and to keep the color in the selected subject in your newly created layer.

Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I can not find an album for photos before 2012.

Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone5 after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I cannot find an album or year for photos before 2012 (in the photo app). The iphone says the photo content is there when I check in "about" under general in settings. So the pictures seem to be somewhere but I just can't access from from the photo app. Any suggestions. I also know that they were there before the iOS7 upgrade as I was looking for a pre 2012 picture last week and it we there.

I'm editing a video in imovie '08 and adding iphotos to the movie, but some of the photos are not showing. Help

I'm editing the video of a presentation one of my clients has delivered, I'm adding the slides of the presentation in as photos from iphoto, the problem is that some of the photos are now showing up in the video even though they have been added. Also where photo number 7 should be it is showing photo number 12? I really need to sort this out and need help. How do I get the photos to show and show properly in the right place?
Thank you in advance

I've got a list of things to look at and tryout to see if we can narrow down what's happening. Try any one in any particular order see if the problem keeps happening.
1. What format are the original photos in?
Are the all the same?
If they are different, do some work and others do not?
File formats that are “raw” may be a problem.
File size may also be a problem if they are very large files.
2. Duplicate the project in the Project Library
Try dragging a photo into that copy of the project
Any differences? If you can import photos into the Duplicate, try copying then pasting into the original and see if the image shows up.
3. Duplicate a picture inside of iPhoto
If you want to have a particular picture and can find it within iPhoto try making a duplicate.
Does it show up in the Photo browser? And can you drag that duplicated picture into the project? What do you see, what result do you get?
4. Clean the iMovie cache
Quit out of iMovie. Then go to your Movies Folder > iMovie Events > Project folder name
Drag the folder "iMovie Thumbnails" to your trash. Then open the folder "iMovie Cache" and drag the file "Cache.plist" to the trash.
This should regenerate any cached thumbnails for the project, may be helpful.
5. Try tossing out the iMovie preferences
Quit iMovie.
Open a Finder window to your user's Home folder>Library >Preferences folder. Find the file named "com.apple.iMovie.plist" or "com.apple.iMovieAppl.plist" and move it to the trash.
Try opening iMovie again, then opening the project and dragging a photo from the Photo Browser into the Project timeline.

Photo Count is Correct But Photos are not Showing

I just imported my old photos to iPhoto. All 19,000 of them. Photo shows correct number of photos but when I look at the photo view area, not all the photos are there. But there's an album that appeared below where I can view the new photos i just transferred. How is it that they are not showing in the Photo are but shows on an album? Faces still running. Will it show after Faces is done?

but when I look at the photo view area, not all the photos are there.
What do you see?
Regards

Photo edits not showing up in iPhoto when using PSE

I have recently purchased Photoshop Elements 13 and have set iPhoto to use it as my editor. That is working, however, when I save the file, the new file does not show up in iPhoto. It does, however, show up in Organizer. Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks Larry, I don't doubt that I'm not doing it correctly, but I don't know what I am doing wrong. I have selected PSE to be my external editor in the iPhoto preferences and when I select a photo in iPhoto to edit, it comes up in PSE. I edit the photo and select save (or click on the X in the top right corner of the image, I have tried both and gotten the same results both ways. I get a dialog box that indicates PSE is going to save the file in psd format. I have let it do that and I have also changed to JPG, neither has made any difference. I have also gone in and changed the preferences in PSE to replace the original file on the advice of help at Elements Village. It didn't change the file in iPhoto before that change and it hasn't changed it after that change either.
The file I originally was working with was in RAW format, and I read in another thread that there was no way for PSE to save the edited RAW file back into iPhoto directly, that it would need to be saved somewhere else, such as to the desktop, and then imported back into iPhoto. So, I edited a jpg file and saved it and that edited file did not show up in iPhoto either. From reading other threads, it seems to work for other people, but I don't know what I and doing wrong or what else to try. I have spent a ton of time trying to get this to work because I don't care for the PS Organizer and would prefer to use iPhoto to organize my photos and PSE and ACR to edit them, but so far I am not having any luck with it other than saving the edited file somewhere else and then importing it again into iPhoto, which is a pretty clunky way to have to do it.

Photos do not show up in iPhoto yet still in user/pics/iPhoto Library. Why?

I opened iPhoto 6.0.3 today only to find it void of all my pictures and of any sourcer folders I created for each year pictures were taken. However, all my pics are still in user/pictures/iPhoto Library along with all the Data folder, created folders etc. I've tried to drag some of the pictures to iPhoto but it warns: "The following file could not be imported. (The file is in the iPhoto Library)". So if my pictures are correctly located in the user/pictures/iPhoto Library, why are they not showing up when I open iPhoto? Any ideas?

First, if the photos are in the Originals folder they they are already in the library even if the don't show (unless you placed them in that folder via the Finder).
Try the following: download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, substituting your account name for mine. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field.
Now launch iPhoto and see if that helped.

Photos are not showing up in Finder

I am using Aperture 3.2.4 on an iMac purchased in July 2011.
This is a new problem...suddenly none of the photos that I have imported into Aperture and then renamed are showing up the Finder. By renamed, I mean it is a photo I gave a new version name to by using the metadata tab. (Ex: "IMG_5678" was renamed "6.1.12 John & Jane").
I imported a bunch of photos last week after returning from a vacation. In the Finder I can see most of the projects, but inside the projects only the versions still labelled IMG_XXXX are showing. Any versions that I renamed are not there. And the project I created called Photo Album - which has only renamed versions in it - doesn't show up at all. This was not the case 4 days ago, because I downloaded the photo album to Facebook. (I did so manually through FB, choosing the photos in the Finder, not through the FB button in Aperture).
Its not just an issue with these new vacation photos, but with all photos I have imported directly into Aperture...
When we bought this iMac last July, the Apple store downloaded a bunch of our PC data into it, including loading all of our photos into iPhoto. About a month later I moved all the photos from iPhoto to Aperture. The photos imported from iPhoto are all showing up in the finder just fine, and are organized into the folders just like they are in Aperture. Ex:
Main Folder: Photos 2010
     Subfolder: Thailand April 2010
          All the projects then show up, with all their versions (renamed or not), including the Photo Album project
     Subfolder: New Orleans May 2010
          All the projects then show up, with all their versions (renamed or not), including the Photo Album project
So these are still perfect in the Finder.
When I click on the Photos 2011 folder, the photos pre-August (the ones imported from our old PC and then from iPhoto) show up just fine. But from August-December, all I get are projects (not organized into their folders), and the renamed photos have disappeared, as have the Photo Album projects. (Again, the Photo Albums contain only renamed versions. But the Photo Album project doesn't show up empty, it simply doesn't show up at all).
When I click on the Photos 2012 folder, all photos imported directly into Aperture, I get the same problem: a list of projects, not organized into their folders, all of the renamed versions within the projects have disappeared, as have the Photo Album projects.
I've tried restarting the computer, hoping it would 'reload' the photos into the Finder, but no.
Can anyone help?

"Photo" has no useful meaning in Aperture.
You import files. Once imported, Aperture refers to them as "Masters" (prior to 3.3) or "Originals" (3.3). Keeping with this new change, I will refer to them as "Originals". Every Original shows in Aperture as an Image. Every Image has a Version. The Version has a name. The Version is actually a text file that contains instructions on what changes to make to the Original in order to show you the Image. The Version and the Original are not the same (one is an image-format file, the other is a text file), even though the Image of the Version and the Image of the Original may appear to be identical.
Within Aperture you work with Images. Since every Image has a unique Version, Images are often called "Versions".
Originals can have several Versions.
Aperture never alters your Originals.
Aperture either stores your Originals inside the Aperture Library (in which case they are called "Managed" Originals) or lets you put them on any locally mounted drive on your system (in which case they are called "Referenced" Masters).
When you want an image-format file to share with another program, you create one by exporting a Version or an Original. "Export" means "make me an image-format file that looks like this". You set the format and the parameters for that format in an Image Export Preset.
Aperture is an image-manager, not a file-manager. There _cannot_ be a one-to-one correspondence between Images in Aperture and their locations in the Library structure you create, and files in Finder and their locations in the Finder folders you create. Images are not files; Aperture Folders are not Finder folders.
I can't tell from your description whether you have any Referenced Originals or not.
Once you import a file into Aperture and it becomes an Original, you must never move or alter it with any program other than Aperture (or -- as of Monday -- the newest version of iPhoto).
My general suggestion for those having difficulties like you are, is to select all your Images (by, yes, clicking the misnamed "Photos" near the top of the Library tab of the Inspector) and run "File➞Consolidate Masters". This will move any Referenced Originals to inside Aperture's Library (and thus convert them to Managed Masters). Take advantage of Aperture's strong and robust organizing tools. Build a structure of Projects, Albums, and Folders that gives you the storage and retrieval capabilities you want. Use it. When you need image-format files to share with other programs, create them by exporting. Do not use Finder to organize your Originals. Do not use Finder to look for your Originals. Do not use Finder for image-management.
HTH.
