Changed computers. Now Photos not recognized

I have moved all my files from one computer to another. Everything seems to be working fine. My pictures are in the usual directory in the home directory. I have the latest iPhoto. When I open iPhoto, it does not see the photos. How can I fix this?
I have gone from a MacBook Pro back to PowerBook. Could that be a factor? I had latest iPhoto on the MacBook Pro too.

Kaveh:
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. It very likely that some of the permissions, ownership ,etc have been changed in the move and this will set them right for the new Mac.
Do you Twango?

  • IPod Photo not recognized on Windows XP

    I bought my Ipod Photo more than a year ago--and I've had numerous problems with it. Before my one-year-limited-warranty expired, Apple replaced my first iPod Photo for a brand new one--the one I have now.
    The iPod itself seems to be working fine. However, one day it froze so I had to reset it--losing all of my music. Then I plugged it into my computer, but to my surprise, not one of the songs on my iTunes was transferred to my iPod.
    When plugged into the computer, the "Do Not Disconnect" screen appears, and iTunes does open. However, nothing more happens. It seems like iTunes may recognize the iPod for a bit, then that's it.
    Please help with me with my problem!

    I have had much the same problem. I originally ordered the 40G ipod, and was 'upgraded' to the 60G (this was when the 60G was first released). The thing has NEVER worked properly! When it does connect and upload music, it's OK....until I would try to connect it again to add new stuff. More often than not, it would need to be completely reset, losing everything in memory. Needless to say, I haven't used it much. Now I am planning a trip and wanted to bring along some tunes. I've charged and reset the ipod, I'm running the latest iTunes version, and still nothing. It's not recognized in either windows or iTunes. The best it can do is tell me it needs to be reformatted, but then it just sits there forever saying 'Do Not Disconnect'. I'd love to be able to just get to the point where I could restore or update the software, but that seems impossible.
    At this point, I really would like to upgrade to a movie-capable ipod, but my experience so far leaves much to be desired. Any suggestions?

  • IPhone 2g. Failed restore. Now is not recognized by any computer.

    Hello. I have the 1st generation iPhone. The other day I was restoring it, to transfer it to my sister. It came unconnected during restore. I've dealt with botched restores before, you're just supposed to get it into recovery mode and restore... Just one problem now... I can't get any computer to recognize it. I have 3 computers and 4 connection cords.
    Computer #1: Dell with XP SP2. Has USB 2.0
    Computer #2: HP/Compaq laptop. Vista 64-Bit.Also 2.0
    Computer #3: Thick Mac that came with OS X Leopard
    I have 2 Thin, no press connection cords and 2 thick, squeeze-to-disconnect, cords.
    The iPhone will go into DFU and Recovery mode.
    I have tried every port on every computer with every cable. I have tried it in Recovery mode , and DFU mode. Both windows computers just say "USB device not recognized" and "Unknown Device". The mac doesn't do anything. iTunes does not recognize on any of them. I have absolutely NO idea of if I can fix this. It also seems to be out of warranty. What can i do?

    This is really pathetic Apple. Sad and pathetic. I call my local Apple store, they say call national help. I call national, spend an hour on hold, and finally get some person in India. I tell them everything
    I've done and they walk me through it again. Finally after another hour, the tell me they can't fix it and to check here. I post here and noone replys. I go to the genius bar. They can connect it to a mac, they say, "It's a 2g, out of warranty, buy a new one". It didn't fall on the floor, the cord came out of the computer. and now it doesn't work. This is total BS. Unless some magical pixie helps me, and apologizes for all this, I'm boycotting Mac and Apple for the rest of me entirety, and I'm going to burn my i-Phone 2g in effigy. Then, I'll go buy a WORKING and SUPPORTED smartphone with a WINDOWS OS! They actually work!!!!

  • Installing IOS 5.1.1 on my iPhone failed and now is not recognized by PC or itunes.  All troubleshooting has failed.  HELP!!!

    Installing IOS 5.1.1 on my iphone failed and now the phone will not show up on itunes and is not recognized by my PC.  I tried all troubleshooting Apple says to do minus uninstalling itunes.  My wifes iphone still works fine with the same cable and itunes on my PC.  ----- Help!

    Hello. I was like this yesterday after upgrading 5.1.1. The proccess failed and the iphone only showed the USB cable with the iTunes logo.
    What I did was connect the iphone to my wife's PC, and there, with a clean itunes installation, install a clean 5.1.1. Then, went back to my iMac and connect it again, and now it works.
    But now, with my iphone working as new, it still cannot be showed up in itunes. I am still working on it.
    Good luck!

  • HP L7680 suddenly stopped working Mon, 2 computers get device not recognized

    We are totally frustrated. The printer worked fine on Sun.  On Mon, no luck.  We have it directly connected to a Compaq running Windows 7 and occasionally switch it to a Toshiba laptop running XP.  Both machines now say a USB device is not recognized.  We have tried switching the cable, rebooting all devices.  Nothing works.  When I tried to get the Solution Center to recognize it, it went to 98% and into never-never land.  After 20 minutes, I gave up.  Any ideas?

    Hello retiredinsc,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    Sorry to hear about the recent printing issues on the L7680, it is very strange that on Sunday it will work and then Monday it will not.
    With the USB cable connected, to either computer, run the Print and Scan Dr. This will check for hardware issues on the printer, driver, software and communication issues on the computer.
    Let me know what the results are, what passes, fails, etc.
    Cheers,
    JERENDS

  • Updated to 1.1.1 now iPod not recognized

    Hi, I just updated to 1.1.1 today and all was well and I was happy enough with it. I've just went to plug my iPod in again and nothing happens. The back light comes on but the main menu stays there, it doesn't show in itunes or my computer. Annoying as ****, any suggestions?

    Does it reboot itself over and over only while connected, or all the time?
    If it's all the time ...
    Leave it alone and let it fully discharge the battery, then manually put it in disk mode, run the Mac version of ChkDsk (not sure what it is), and then do a restore.

  • Changes in xmp files not recognized n Lightroom

    In my workflow i have setup for changes to be made to the xmp files by a program other than lightroom. In the previous version of Lightroom i had tested this, it worked fine. When i made a change to the xmp file, Lightroom recognized the change and displayed/rendered the image appropriately. Now, I am using version 2.2 and this is not happening. I see the option in th Metadat dropdown menu for "Read Metadata from File". If i click this it works. Is there an option for this to automatically happen that i am missing? If there isnt, why not? Also, I have noticed that Lightroom does not automatically write/update the xmp file if that option is enabled when using the develop module. Can anyone help me with this?

    Read has never been automatic, and write is automatic but not instantly - it does it when time is available. You can use synchronize instead of read if you want to, but again, it's not automatic.

  • Photos not recognized and files unreadable

    I have iPhoto 5.0.4 and was recently importing some images from a CD burned by a friend. The images all came in fine, but iPhoto started hanging up, so I quite and rebooted.
    When I rebooted and started iPhoto again it now says there are no photos. I can see the library in the Finder and I can see the images also. I've tried to add the photos back in using "Add to Library" but iPhoto tells me that the files are unreadable; "they may be an unrecognizable file type or the files may not contain valid data"
    Any ideas on how I can get iPhoto to recognize my library again?
    Thanks
    Tom

    Hi Tom,
    It seems a data file got corrupt somehow.
    You are getting the error message because you are trying to add images to the library that iPhoto thinks are already in the library folder in the Finder.
    Here's what to do.
    Close iPhoto
    Rename your messed up iPhoto Library to "iPhoto Library_old"
    Drag this library to your desktop
    Hold down the Option key and launch iPhoto
    This is the window you will get
    Create a new library or choose a library to open
    Choose to create a new library
    Once this new empty library is open it is time to import the images from your old library
    Go to File>add to library
    Navigate to the old library on your desktop and choose it.
    iPhoto will start importing the images from your old library
    This is what to expect:
    Your images will be imported in nice dated rolls. (make sure your view is set to sort by rolls to see it) There are a couple of caveats to this. You will get rolls named "Originals" These rolls will contain your video clips and your original images that you had edited. If you had RAW files they would be in those rolls too (I don't do RAW, so I don't know for sure) Delete what you don't want from those rolls. You will also get the jpeg pointer files to your video clips imported. They will just be jpegs and will not point to the video clips anymore as iPhoto made new ones when the clips were imported again. You can delete those. they should be in a roll right next to the newly imported video clips so they are not hard to find. The thumbnail files don't get imported as iPhoto makes new ones when the images are imported.
    Once all you images have been imported, check through the library and make sure everything looks ok.
    You can now start making your Albums, and do your keywords or any other organizational steps.
    You can also delete the old library on the desktop.
    It is also a good time to backup this new library to CD/DVD by burning the iPhoto LIbrary folder in the Finder, or copying the iPhoto Library folder to an external drive formatted for Macs, or copying the iPhoto LIbrary folder to an iPod.
    Good luck!

  • Had an Error Installing new iOS software, Now Ipad not recognized by itunes

    This morning I was updating the iPad with the latest software from itunes.  There was an error.  Now itunes doesn't recognize the iPad.  The screen on the iPad when it is plugged into the PC is the same one when you recieve a brand new iPad.  How do I get the iPad to be recognized by iTunes? 

    Thanks for trying.  I have tried shutting down and restarting the iPad and the Computer to no effect.  For what its worth when I shut down the iPad the red slider does not show up.  Also in PC's Device manager the iPad is in Recovery Mode.  But, I do not see the black screen on the iPad.  I see the connect to iTunes Screen.

  • Changed dns now emails not coming through

    Hi,
    I've changed the dns to point to BC from my old host and now emails are sending but not receiving.
    I tried to input email details to BC but it said I had to do this from the host of my email account. I have been to the account but can't see how to transfer the email account to BC.
    Please help.

    You need to revert the DNS changes you made to your nameserver.  Call up your domain registrar where you made the changes and ask them if they can change it back for you.
    Then, depending on which datacenter your site is on for BC, (US, Europe, etc.) you need to add an A record for your base domain name pointing to an IP Address:
    Europe
    54.246.209.120
    or
    54.246.209.119
    United States
    54.236.190.114
    or
    54.236.189.64
    Australia
    54.252.148.183
    or
    54.252.148.191
    After you setup an A record for your base domain "no www", and the "www" record.
    The problem with what you did is you had email hosted at your old web host so when you changed nameservers to BC, BC is now handling routing all your traffic for your domain.  But, if you revert your nameservers to what you had before those nameservers will control your traffic (and your email) and you can just update the DNS record to point them to BC for just your www and non-www domain records.  Your MX records control your email routing and those would still be as you had them setup before.
    Best of luck.

  • Upgraded to 10.4.10 and now device not recognized

    ...and the status says "no airport hardware found" Apple tech support says i should move any microwaves...
    Whoever you talked with doesn't know what they were talking about. The Mac's ability to detect the card has nothing to do with RF interference.
    Try resetting the PRAM.
    If that doesn't work, try resetting the open firmware. The procedure is
    Start up into Open Firmware by pressing and holding the Command-Option-O-F key combination during startup.
    At the Open Firmware prompt, type: reset-nvram
    Press Return.
    At the Open Firmware prompt, type: reset-all

  • Photos not recognized

    Hey all -
    did a clean install of 10.5 on a MacBook. Archived all my pictures to an external FW drive. When I brought them back onto to the MB, iPhoto '06 would not recognize them as valid files. Is iPhoto 06 valid for 10.5.5? I can open these JPEGS in Preview, Photoshop, etc., but cannot get them recognized by iPhoto06.
    thanks in advance.

    How did you do this? Did you quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library to the EHD (this is the proper way)

    If you do not have a valid iPhoto library on the EHD then you will need to import your photos into iPhoto
