Photo Booth gone please help!

I dont know how this happened, but after emptying the trash stated to hang, I force shut down my MacBook, and now Photo Booth is no where to be scene. I can not find the Photo Booth installer on the MacBook restore disc. Please help!

AppleMacintosh,
Have you looked in Macintosh HD/Applications whilst in Finder or gone to spotlight and done a search. To use spotlight either goto the little magnifying glass in the top right of your screen and type in Photo Booth and hit enter or hit  (Command) + Spacebar and then type in Photo booth and hit enter. Please note you have to put in the space between Photo & Booth.
If it still happens to be on your Mac, Open it, and once its in the dock (ctrl + click) and select (Keep in Dock)
Hope that helps,
Weston

Thumbnails still appear but the photo is gone - please help!

I've already Googled the crap out of this, and it's happened before and I was able to use Finder to recover some of the original files, but I can't seem to do that this time. Maybe I'm not finding the link that helped me before or something but I NEED these photos.
I'm using iPhoto 11 and I use Lightroom 5 to edit. I drag flagged images from iPhoto to LR and then export to desktop first, then I move them into iPhoto and Finder - the same album in each location for easy access and multiple backup. I hear 'dragging' can sometimes mess with files, though I'm not sure why. And besides that I am not good at organizing LR so that may contribute to it. I simply import, edit, export and move onto the next project. I only want to use it like a post processing program, not an uploader or storage program....
When I test an image that isn't already gone like this, from the same album, it doesn't work. It won't drag and I can't even find iPhoto library while inside LR in order to manually upload it.
This must be an issue with LR/user error because the images that are currently gone are images I've already edited/exported. I'm sure to not delete from disk when I delete photos from LR though, so I just don't know!
Help I'm definitely lost here!

You start to go wrong right here:
I'm using iPhoto 11 and I use Lightroom 5 to edit.
Lr is not an editor. Like iPhoto it's a database with lossless processing. Images need to be imported and exported from it. You really need to choose between the two apps as they occupy the same role in the workflow. Using both is like writing your novel in TextEdit and Word at the same time.
I drag flagged images from iPhoto to LR
You're not getting your original files, just the iPhoto previews.
I only want to use it like a post processing program, not an uploader or storage program....
Then you are better off using a post processing program and not a manager instead of one. All your problems come down to that.
So, get an external editor - and in the list below they are all less epensive than Lr, - and your workflow will be a lot less complicated.
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
The Gimp (free)
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
Pixelmator ($50 approx)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Photos libary gone PLEASE HELP

I have just had to do a software reinstall of the operating system and on completion have found that I have lost all my photos. What makes this even worst is that we have just moved and I cannot seem to locate my back up CD. Have I lost my pictures for good or is there a way of locating them deep down inside the MAC HD???? Any help would me more than appreciated.

When you reinstall the OS, you make a choice -- a) Erase and install, or b) Archive and install. Which did you choose?

HT1414 I had a new phone and I clicked some pictures and then I restore my new phone with the old back up and I lost my new clicked photos...please help me how can I get back those photos?

You were already provided the answer. If you do not have a backup of the phone while the photos were on the phone, they are gone. When you restore your phone from an old backup, anything that has been saved to the phone since that backup is deleted. Sorry.

HT1689 Why is my money gone my sister just gave me a card for $25.00 and I loaded it on iTunes and it logged me out and my money's gone PLEASE HELP!!

hy is my money gone my sister just gave me a card for $25.00 and I loaded it on and I got out of my account and now the money's gone PLEASE HELP!?!

Sounds like either the Display or Graphics chip, that will not be cheap to fix. Because it is a 2006 and getting on in years, it might be best to move whatever you want to keep over to your newer iMac using Firewire Target Disk Mode and let it rest in peace.

Hi, my iphoto had a transparent ? mark on it and wouldn't open so I dragged it onto the desk top and now it has disappeared... I cannot find it anywhere in my finder, it seems to be gone, please help!

You have one and possibly two problems.
First problem you tried to open the iPhoto library with iTunes and appeared to have set iTunes as the default app for iPhoto Libraries. That isn;t going to work.
To fix that select the iPhoto library in the Finder and do a File->Get Info. In the middle of the Info window you'll see Open With dropbox. Click on that and select iPhoto, then select the Change All button
This will get iPhoto back as the default app to open iPhoto Libraries.
Double click the library now and if nothing else is wrong iPhoto will open the library. If it does do as Michael wrote and go to the Applications folder and drag iPhoto to the dock to remake the shortcut.
However since you started this thread by saying that the iPhoto shortcut in the dock had a question mark on it it is possible that iPhoto is missing from your Applications folder. If it is post back.

Restore the device using the most recent backup.
If you have not backed up the device recently, then there is nothing to restore.

I have a new laptop and have installed itunes onto it, but i am worried if i plug my iphone into it i will loose all my contacts apps and photos!! please help!!!

hi there
i have just bought a new laptop and have installed itunes onto it but i am worried that if i plug my iphone into it, that i will loose all my apps, contacts and photos!!
please help!!

I will try and be helpful unlike the the first two posters!!
When you say installed iTunes I am guessing that its just the program and not your old library? in which case when you connect your iphone you will get a message warning you that you will be replacing the data on the iphone with the library on the new laptop i.e. an empty itunes.
If this is the case what you need to do is on your old laptop,
1: open itunes and go into preference/settings and go to advanced and make sure that consolidate and keep organised are checked.
2: Then go to file and click consolidate library.
3: close itunes and then go to start and open "My Music" folder.
4: Drag the iTunes folder out of My music and put it on an external drive or network the 2 laptops.
5: on the new laptop open "My Music" folder and drag out to the desk top the itunes folder
6: from the external drive or network drang and drop the old iTunes library into the "My Music" folder on the new laptop.
now close it and restart iTunes and your old library should be visable and when you connect your iphone it will identify its the correct library to sync with.

Ever wish for a corrupted database?
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Update thumbnails - all photos gone, please help

I was prompted to update my thumbnails in my iPhoto library. I chose yes and now all my photos are gone.
I tried already the alt key and I am being asked to create a new library or to choose an existing one. If I choose again the existing one it opens empty. I tried as well the iPhotolibrary Manager but it recovers only my photos, no events, dates and the library is then a bit messy.
Anyone experiencing the same problem? I am using iPhoto '08 7.1.5.

This won't help you know but in the future if you have similar issues the tip at the end of my signature below can help you quickly recover.
*HOWEVER, I think I've found a way you can get that Library6.iPhoto file out of TM:*
1 - while *in the Finder* open the Backups.backupdb folder on your Time Machine drive.
2 - drill down to the Pictures folder in your user account for the date just before the problem occurred.
3 - Control+click on the iPhoto library package and select Show Package contents from the drop down menu.
4 - locate and drag the Library6.iPhoto file to your desktop.
5 - replace the damaged file with the one from TM.
I think that will do it.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

All iphone photos gone, please help

hi. all of my iphone photos are gone. i had received the notice that i had run out of disk space earlier today. took a few more photos on cross process app and saw that they went into library. opened phone just now to dump photos onto my computer and nothing is there. actually 2 photos are... the last two i took. nothing else. i am absolutely heartbroken. please please someone tell me they're not gone.

Okay, so something (I am guessing your iPhone) told you that it was out of disk space, yet you continued to take pictures? Is that accurate?
Not sure there is anything you can do.
You really should be copying pictures from your iDevice to your computer on a regular basis.
If you have backed up recently, you might be able to restore to your most recent backup and get back the pics that existed on the device at the point the backup was created.

Conected ipod to pc all songs gone please help

**Hi ALL,**
**Need help please, my hard drive died on the computer so i replaced it went to sign in on the itunes store and went to sync and all of my songs,photos,games have gone from my ipod is there any way i can get them all back????**
**Please help, thaks for youre time**
*Fletch*

Sounds as if you synced your iPod to an empty iTunes library.
If you have no back up anyplace else, then your only hope is some data recovery software as mentioned in this post.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=931813&#931813
Some people say that they've been allowed a re-download of iTunes purchases for various reasons when they've contacted Apple.
You can only ask but please be aware that Apple are not obligated to do this for you.

Got a new lap top my husband wanted to help me by downloading itunes on it I have not used icloud but do have it on my phone When he pugged it in it asked if he wanted to backup he said yes Then reset my phone now all my pictures are gone please help

I got a new lap top and my husband thought it would be a good idea to help me by downloading itunes on it. Well Not so much... I have not used icloud but do have it on my phone and other items. When he pugged my phone in to my laptop it asked if he wanted to backup he said yes. Then it reset my phone and now all my pictures are gone please help

If your phone was backed up to your computer, the backup would contain your camera roll photos (and videos). Restoring to this backup would recover them. However, if it was backed up a second time after losing them, this would overwrite the backup containing the data and your photos would be lost.
You can try restoring to your backup, but before doing so go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check "Prevent...from syncing automatically". This will prevent the phone from automatically syncing and backing up when you connect it to your computer, thereby overwriting the backup you want to restore to. After doing this, open iTunes on your computer and connect your phone, then right-click on the name of your phone on the left side of iTunes and choose Restore from Backup. (If you have iTunes 11 first go to View>Show Sidebar.)
Again this might work, as long as the phone was only backed up and then not subsequently backed up again after the photos were lost.

My music information- GONE please help!

I am trying to move itunes 10 from old pc to new pc. All my music is on an external HD. I had my music library of over 500 cd's all organized by artist in folders on the external hd. Now, the new itunes install on the new pc has re-organized my external hd and all the folders are gone! Please help me get them back. How can itunes change my own external HD?? It has put all the songs together under a folder called 'unknown atrist'. The title of the song is still there but all my folders are gone!

Maybe turingtest2 (a regular AD poster) can help with his script, TagFromFilename.
Just try one or two files to make sure it works how you want, before you run it on the whole shebang. I think it will help, but I'm not sure.

Good luck. You're going to need it!

HT201210 Ok so I'm trying to update my iPad, and it keeps "timing out." I got to the actual update process, and it failed and asked me to restore my iPad, but I just can't lose all of my apps and photos! Someone please help.

Ok so I'm trying to update my iPad, and it keeps "timing out." I got to the actual update process, and it failed and asked me to restore my iPad, but I just can't lose all of my apps and photos! I payed for a lot of my apps, and my photos are just too important. Someone please help!

If rhe apps and photos are that important you made sure that you took the steps in order to keep them safe in an event like this didn't you?
You did backup the iPad before you decided to update the iPad correct?
And you did transfer all of your apps and other purchases into iTunes before you decided to update correct?
If you did, just restore the iPad and then restore from the backup at the end of fhe process and follow that with a sync with iTunes and you will lose nothing,
Now if you didn't do any of the precautionary steps ....
