All my MacBook Air iPhoto (9.5.1 on OSX 10.9.4) albums are missing; where have they gone?
All my iPhoto (vs.9.5.1) albums (normal, smart and folders) are missing. On MacBook Air (2GB, 128GB SSD, OSX 10.9.4)
Where have they gone, and how can I get them back?
Give this a go:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder:
User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

Lost 2500 photos last night. Mt wife cut and paste a photo into power point for editing. then saved it as a photo. Now in iphoto there is just this one photo and the other 2500 have gone. Where have they gone???????
To answer some basic questions posted to aid people in helping me. These are
I believe it is version 11 of iphoto as i tried to update but it says it has the latest update and Mac is 2 weeks old from new.
OS is Lion.
I have just tried to look everywhere on the Mac to see where the photos might be.
There are no error messages showing on screen and it was fine before my wife did what she did. Even though we have back -ups of 95% of the pictures. I would like to know what happened so that it won't happen again. -
IPhoto Themes - Where Have they Gone?
Recently had to reinstall iLife 09 so iPhoto was also reinstalled. When trying to print a photo the computer states that no themes are located. I go into the HD, library and delete com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. Tried to print but still no themes, reinstalled iPhoto 09, tried to print again but again no themes are located.
Had a similar problem with iDVD but fixed that up but unable fix the iPhoto themes problem.
Any help/tips would be greatly appreciate as none of the forum advice has fixed the problem so far.Check out OT's post in this thread:

Also, note his comments here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6998840�
Look in your User/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If you find it there move it to the HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder and reboot. Then try iPhoto again. That may save you having to go thru the reinstallation.

Al.The MBA seems to cause several problems to several users on boot ups
On start up my MBA would not boot up the apple logo came on but only a blank screen appeared no fan i followed several start up recommendations but to no avail so I took the MBA to the nearest Apple repair centre again the same symptoms on start up ......very sorry sir you need a new mother board that will be $500 not feeling confidant in the product declined and was going to put it on ebay for spares.
On return home I pressed the start up button and it started normally everything was working fine i decided to reinstall all the software what has caused the problem I have no idea but it is after several attempted reboots it finally started on its own so don't give up if you have this problem it may come to life -
Does all new macbook air come with OS X Mountain Lion?
does all new macbook air come with OS X Mountain Lion? if so, where can i find it? cause if i'm right, i remember saw a mountain lion logo on someones desktop. also, if i have it on my mac, why do I find it in the apple store saying that I need to purchase it for $19.99?
All new MacBooks Air come with OS X Mountain Lion, as it's the only supported version in Mid 2013 MacBooks Air. Mid 2012 MacBooks Air come with Lion or Mountain Lion, depending on when they were manufactured.

The Mid 2013 MacBook Air uses a special OS X Mountain Lion version which is different than the version available at the Mac App Store. That's the reason why you see the price at the Mac App Store, but you already have Mountain Lion. If you try to purchase Mountain Lion, the App Store will tell you that it's not compatible with your MacBook Air. To reinstall Mac OS X, you have to use OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718 -
I have a MacBook Air, which I just upgraded to OSX Lion. I also have the latest version of iTunes. When I try to stream to the AirPort, the Airport resets, and the wireless connection on the macbook locks up. Any suggestions where to start?
To free up hard drive space the best bet is to move data files that you don't need access to all the time. Likely candidates are music, video, and photos. Things like word processing and spreadsheet files can also be moved but they tend not to be very large and so don't free up much space. The problem with moving the above mentioned files is that iTunes and iPhoto need to know where the files are stored.
Here's an article explaining how to move the iTunes folder. You can move the iPhoto library using the Finder but there is a slight complication. Start iPhoto, open the Preferences and click on the Advanced tab. The first option is "Copy items to the iPhoto Library". If this option is checked, copy the iPhoto library to your external folder (drag it from the Pictures folder to your external drive) and then delete it from your Picture folder. If this option is not checked, it is a bit more complicated and we'll need to talk a bit. -
I am having problems opening videos on my MacBook Air. I keep receiving the message to download Adobe flash player. I have gone to the site an downloaded it several times. It shows it is actually downloading, but still receive the message.
Hi..
Assuming you are using Safari ...
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Make sure to uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin first.
Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.
BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari. -
New MacBook air problems transferring music from macG5 OSX. Not enough space
Just got a MacBook air and having problems with migration assistant. It is showing I don't have enough disc space to transfer from my Mac G5 running on OSX 10.5.8. The main thing I want to transfer is my iTunes library. Would love to transfer all my photos too. I have tried just checking the music box and nothing else but it still says not enough space. How can I get my music library?
It's probably right. You need to install a larger drive in the MacBook Air or skip those for now and put them on an external drive later.

Does 2013 macbook air use a special version of OSX 10.8.4?
does 2013 macbook air use a special version of OSX 10.8.4?
Don't know about a 'simple data transfer via USB drive'........
Have to make sure 3rd party software (like MS Office 2008 and CleanMyMac 2, etc) make the trip over to the new Macbook Air. Also, my current MacBook Pro does not have USB 3 and that would make a connect slow, very slow. Best bet I think is a Firewire 800 to Thunderbolt connect.
Sadly, this is turning out to be 'like two ships passing in the night' in that OSX 10.8.5 is due out 'soon, very soon' and it reportedly will include drivers, etc that make this issue moot. However, as they say, 'it's my money and I want it now!' , so I won't wait and will settle for 4/5 of the loaf.
Thanks for your help!

I've been given a Macbook Air as a gift (with OS 10.7.5). Garageband is missing and I can't dl the app store version because apparently my OS is too old. Help??
Try to by an iLife '11 installation DVD - perhaps you can find it at Amazon or eBay.
Or try to update the MacOS X version of your MacBook Air to MacOS X 10.9 Mavericks. If your MBA qualifies for the Mavericks update, you should be able to buy GarageBand 10.0 from he AppStore. -
Just bought a nano and want to download some of my iTunes library. The "Music" button shows almost all my selections but some albums are missing, yet ONLY those albums appear on the nano icon on my desktop after being dragged there but none of the others. What's happening?
I've read some of the post here that I thought might help but they refer to titles (Music) and triangles in the "Devices" window which are nowhere to be seen when I open the "Devices" window.
I have iTunes 11.0.3 and Mac OS 10.6.8. Does this make a difference?I should mention that, for the first problem, I do make sure that my new tracks are stored in the folder where I told iTunes that my music is in. Also, when I say the cataloging of my library stops short of cataloging all my songs, I have tried leaving the computer unattended for days (my computer's sleep mode is disabled). It always stops before cataloging all of my music regardless of whether I am doing something else while iTunes is cataloging, or if I just let iTunes be the only program that's open during the cataloging process.

I recently transferred my ITunes library to an external hard drive. I made sure to copy all the data from the saved location. After the transfer I noticed that a lot of albums are missing the first song and some recently purchased albums are missing. Is there any way to recover the data? Thanks for any help.
I may have found an answer here:
http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive
They only thing I can assume is that my external hard drive was slow to start and iTunes defaulted to its old directory (see the last paragraph at the link above). However, once my external was recognized shouldn't everything have fixed itself?

On version 10.5 and was trying to move my itunes music to a larger drive. I had issues and moved it all back to the original drive. Now I see all the music in itunes but when I "explore" the drive many subfolders for my individual albums are missing. Help
really??
Yes, really, I'm sorry to say.
is there anything i can do about it??maybe create another account?
Sorry, but there is nothing you can do about it. There's no place where you could create "another account" that would give you any greater access to media. The content owners do not allow cross-border sales, so you cannot open an account in another country's iTunes Store. So until such time as Apple is able to obtain the necessary licensing and decides that it's practical to open an iTunes Store on your country, I'm afraid that you will not be able to purchase music, videos, or movies from an iTunes Store.
There is only one possibility for you: if what you're looking for are only podcasts, you may be able to find the podcast you want directly from a web site. Apple doesn't host the podcasts, they only link to them, so the podcast you want may be available from another source. You'll have to do a web search and see if the podcast turns up.
