Corrupted file structure in iPhoto library?

This is a little like the "disappeared library" problem that someone else reported, but my library looks OK. It's just that several years worth of photos have disappeared (i.e. folders show as empty).
A quick check into the library folder suggests that originals and modifieds are still there. There seems to be a "disconnect" in linking the library structure to the contents.
As with the other guy, I wouldn't want to restore everything one roll at a time and rebuild my folders.
I have daily backups (using Backup). 10 days ago everything was fine; but if I do a Restore from 15 days ago, I get a successful restore msg, but nothing has changed. Maybe there are bugs in Backup too. You put some faith in Backup working, but I've had Restoring problems with Backup of Mail files as well in the past.
I'm no expert at this sort of thing, but it might be helpful to just know what the iPhoto file structure is supposed to look like. Then maybeI could try to restore specific items on a trial-and-error basis.

Thanks for the prompt reply, TD...
You've come close to describing my situation, but I don't see the solution.
In my case I have the following in my iPhoto folder (quite similar to your list...
In my case I have folders labelled 2001 through 2007 in my Originals folder, and the same for Modified, although oddly enough there's no 2002. It's possible that I didn't make mods for that full year, but doubtful.
If this is the case you have nothing to worry about.
In earlier versions of iPhoto the folder structure
was based in Date. With v6 a new structure was
created:
Originals are the photos as they were
downloaded from your camera or scanner.
(ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that
you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
This allows the Photos -> Revert to Original command
- very useful if you don't like the changes you've
made.
(iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app
needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
OK, you've explained that well, but here is the real problem. If I can call that thing on the left of my screen a Table of Contents, I have folders labelled by year, Last 6 rolls, Last 18 months and dozens that I have created myself... plus some slide shows. That whole structure seems intact from the way I left it before things went wrong.
The issue is that it's the most recent years.. 2006, 2007 have (0) beside them and don't show any photos when clicked on. The same is true of all of the folders (albums) I've created with pictures from those years.
I can see from a file listing of 2006/2007 that I have 3GB of photos in Originals and another 1 GB on Modified. Sampling the photos in Preview shows that they're OK as far as I can tell. What I'm calling the Table of Contents simply isn't accessing them.
Hopefully you have a simpler solution for me, but what would happen if I did an import on the 2006 and 2007 files? I suppose the 100 or so albums I've created would all have to be created???
And, I still don't understand why my Backup Restore isn't recreating what I had working fine just 10 days ago.

  • Importing File Structure into iPhoto

    I need help (or perhaps someone could kindly point me in the right direction) importing the file structure I had set up for my photos. Currently, I have my photos filed in an external drive. The structure I have created is, for example, 2008 folder, then under that 2008 folder I have a folder for each month, then in each month I have an events folder (christmas, tree cutting, etc...). This would look something like this: 2008/12/Christmas Day. Is there a way to import this structure into iPhoto?
    Thanks for the help... (if you've made it this far!)!
    -Ann Marie

    Ann Marie:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can achieve that by using virtual folders, 2007, 2008, etc. and the have smart albums in each of those folder for the months. The criteria for the January smart album would be "Date is the range 01/01/2007 to 01/31/2007".
    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) 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), 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. 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.

  • How do I maintain the file structure in iphoto 6 the way i want them?

    For the past few years I have been scanning forty years worth of slides on my windows based PC. I have approximately 9500 scan as this point. Each scan is given a number such as "009500" followed by the names of persons or places shown on the picture. They are generally in chronological order. Obviously the creation of the scan has nothing to do with the date of the actual shooting of the picture. They are in the order that I want them in.
    I can import them either from an external hard drive or from cds containing a few hundred scans each.
    Is there anyway that I can maintain that kind of file structure in iphoto 6?
    Frankly, I am somewhat disappointed by all of this. My kids told me how easy the mac was for photos and I now find that it may well complicate my computer life even more.
    Mad Judge

    MJ,
    Once your files are imported into the library you can view them in many ways. When you import a file, iPhoto uses the filename as the photo title. I think you can achieve what you want by using View > Sort Photos > by Title. This will display all of your scans in the alpha-numeric order of their titles. You could then move the size slider toward the left (to reduce the thumbnail size) and quickly group your photos into Film Rolls. Click on the first photo, shift-click on the last photo, and all photos in between will become selected. Then use File > Create Film Roll to group these photos together into manageable chunks. Each time you create (or select) a film roll you can give it a descriptive title and edit the roll date. When you set the View to Film Rolls, each roll is listed in chronological order by the date of the roll - not the date of the photos within the roll. This is handy, since you can easily set the date for each roll, and it's a much less daunting task than redating your entire library. Photos within one roll will display in chronological order based on the date of the photos. I realize that with your scans these will not be accurate. So you could either change the date in iPhoto (but you said this would be a huge task) or don't worry about it. [You could use Photos > Batch Change to quickly redate the photos in a roll. Even if you don't take the time to set the exact dates, you can assign the group to a date or series of dates. By doing this you can use the calendar tool to filter your library by date. It is just one more way to make iPhoto a powerful organizer. Click on a year, month, or date in the calendar tool, and iPhoto filters your library to show the photos with those dates.] This is where your grouping into film rolls helps make your library organized - if the photos in a roll are from relatively the same time frame, then perhaps the internal order of the roll will be less important. And you can always switch your View back to Sort by Title when you need the photos to display in the exact order you have designated with your filenames. Just don't re-title the photos once they are in your library.
    If you divided your library into Film Rolls, then you could create an Album for each roll (by simply dragging the roll to the Source Pane). The advantage there is that with regular Albums, you have the option to sort the photos manually by dragging them around. (View > Sort Photos > Manually) You can switch to another sort order, and iPhoto remembers your manual order when you return to it. You do have the option to reset your manual order if you wish.
    iPhoto is very flexible, and with so many views, sorts, and filters you may well find a method that works for you. There is a shift in thinking from the way Windows software works, and if you are used to file browsers then you have to learn to play by the rules of using a database. If you can be patient and work through the learning curve, you may be rewarded. If I can clarify anything for you, please let me know.

  • How do I reconnect files referencing my iPhoto library?

    Hi, I have a bunch of files that I've imported from iPhoto but Aperture is saying are offline.  I know I have to reconnect them to the masters in the iPhoto library, but when I try, using the Locate Referenced File command, the "iPhoto Library" at the bottom pane doesn't show me the folder structure to locate the file.  i.e. iPhoto Library > Masters > etc. > etc.
    How can I reconnect images that are referening my iPhoto Library?
    Thanks!!
    Sal.

    iPhoto stores pictures in a combined package file. To archive part of your library, you would have to select the photos and export them.

  • File structure in iPhoto

    I made a couple of mistakes when I started using iphoto to organize my pics. First, I started renaming files and of course iPhoto then could not find them. Second I reset my camera file naming a couple of times, so I ended up with multiple pics with the same file name.
    I want to get my files straightened up so I need to understand how iPhoto uses the directory structure.
    1. Are all pics saved in the Original Folder by default?
    2. When you modify a pic, is the original unmodified in the Original folder and the modified pic is now in the Modified folder?
    3. Does iPhoto build from the Original folder and store copies in the Data folder?
    4. If I wanted to rebuild my iPhoto library, could I safely delete the Data folder and re-import all pics back into iPhoto?
    Thanks

    Dr Scud
    1. Are all pics saved in the Original Folder by default?
    Yes.
    2. When you modify a pic, is the original unmodified in the Original folder and the modified pic is now in the Modified folder?
    Yes. This facilitates the Photos -> Revert to original command.
    3. Does iPhoto build from the Original folder and store copies in the Data folder?
    No. What's in the data folder are the thumbnails that you see in the iPhoto Window - and they represent the current version of the pic - original if not edited, modified if it has been.
    4. If I wanted to rebuild my iPhoto library, could I safely delete the Data folder and re-import all pics back into iPhoto?
    Hmm. Best to start right over:
    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.
    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 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.
    BTW: filenames are utterly irrelevant in iPhoto. It assigns each pic a unique identifier so you can have several pics called DSC_0078678 and it will handle that with ease. In iPhoto you can add a title to the pics and use that as a filename on export.

  • Using Adobe Bridge file structure with iPhoto (latest version)

    I use Adobe Bridge and have all my pics in named folders in Pictures/PICS/Folder Names.  Inside the PICS folder is the iPhoto Library (only a few pics in it).  Is there any way I can use the file structure I have set up with Bridge and iPhoto (latest) simultaneously?  I really dont want to import (copy) all my pics into IPhot because I am pretty sure I will end up with two versions of each.  I havent been able to manage pics manually the way I like to in older versions of iPhoto. 

    Here's some info to help you setup Photoshop for use with iPhoto:
    Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Note 1: screenshots are from PSE 10
    Note:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

  • Is it just me or is File Naming in iPhoto Library Wack-a-Doo?

    After eight years of using iPhoto on a MacBook, I finally upgraded to an iMac in 2013 and the latest version of iPhoto. In the previous version, I would name my albums (I have a nomenclature that includes the year, month, day, general geographic location [i.e. EU, US, SA, AFR, etc.], specific location or event [Vienna, Paris, Dubai, Grandpa’s Funeral, Denise’s Birthday, Fetes de Geneve, etc.]) and, when I had finished editing them and uploading them either to my blog, FB, or my photo sales site, I would then archive/back-up the folder on my external hard drive. After that, I’d delete the folder from my MacBook HD and from iPhoto.
    In previous versions of iPhoto, I would use the following path to get to my photos and transfer them from my Mac HD to my external HDD. To wit: Finder > Macintosh HD > Users > jayemkay > Pictures > iPhoto Library. Then, I’d right click on the folder and choose “Show Package Contents”. This would then take to me to set of folders that included two important folders: Originals and Modified. When I would open these folders, I would find my photos in folders using the nomenclature described in the first paragraph (e.g. 2013-0514_EU-FR-Ferney_My Birthday). Transferring the files from the Mac HD to the external was easy-peasy. I use this nomenclature, because it allows me to easily find and identify sets of photos or events quickly and without a lot of fuss. (And yes, I tag photos, but more often than not, I’m looking for something by date and event and this is the quickest way for me to do that. It’s also the best way to organize, for me.)
    In the current version of iPhoto (9.5.1) and Aperture, when I follow the same path — Finder > Macintosh HD > Users > jayemkay > Pictures > iPhoto Library, right-click and “Show Package Contents”, I now get a series of folders that make no sense. I’ve identified that Masters and Previews seem to be the current version of Originals and Modified. Fine, no problem there. I’m even encouraged that the folders then divide into years. In this case, I have a folder for 2013 and 2014. But now, instead of finding a series of folders that reflect my nomenclature when I’m in iPhoto, I have a series of folders that make absolutely no sense. Instead of 2013 > 2013-0514_EU-FR-Ferney_My Birthday, I now have 2013 > 07 > 26 > 20130726-205233 > and then the images (IMG) or digital files (DSC / NEF). Some folders contain the full album. Others have one or two photos. Still other folders seem to then have a nomenclature that looks like someone took an alphanumeric series and threw it in my folder for the helluva it (e.g. 2013 > 07 > 26 > 20130726-205233 > 2vdHumRtRcqZt53dunOSAA) and there will be one photo in the folder, but multiple alphanumeric folders within 20130726-205233. 
    This is patently unhelpful and will require that I go through every single file and rename each file such as I have out in iPhoto. This is a waste of my time. Is there a way to change this so the files in Masters and Preview in the iPhoto Library reflect the effort I have put into using my chosen nomenclature?

    It is just you
    You are not using iPhoto correctly
    Direct access to your photos is not (and never has been) supported - yoou access using the supplies methods and tools as described in the user tip on access your iPhoto files
    No - there is no way to change it - iPhoto is a SQLite database and its database structre in not controled by you and can not be changes by you - and you can not make any changes to its content or structure without loseing data
    iPhoto is not required - if you do not like the way it works then simply switch to a different program

  • Corrupted files in my iPhoto bin

    Hello
    I had a few issues with dropbox which ended up corrupting my iphoto database. i fixed most problems (i hope) but i still have issues with my bin. see the screenshot: http://twitpic.com/2l6gnk
    - the layout of the bin is bizarre
    - some pics have no image
    - when i try to empty my bin, iphoto freezes and i need to kill it
    Any idea how i can fix this?
    Thx
    Sebastien

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 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, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Controlling File structure within iphoto

    Aloha,
    I am new to the macs and am trying to figure out the filing system with iphoto. I am interested in doing the following with my files in iphoto:
    1. Is there a way that I store the images in folders that mimic my organization in iphoto? If not how can I navigate to a particular photo?
    2. If I have a folder structure that I want to import to iphoto how do I go about doing that? As I belive iphoto uses 3 main picture storing folders (data, modified and original). Am I to drag my additional files into original? and will it mimick that structure within iphoto?
    Thanks
    macbook Mac OS X (10.4.7)

    nayrsmith
    I'll take these one at a time:
    Can I do a mix of how the images are stored? aka some that are imported in the file structure that I have them organized in, and others (presumably new images) that are imported directly into iphoto? How would this work
    Not comfortably, though you could do it using aliases I guess. You could certainly experiment with a few shots. My worry would be the complexity of the system would leave open the possibility of Human Error.
    2. If I use filing outside of iphoto, I have to manually delete files? aka trashing then iphoto will not delete them from the files? What about if I rotate or modify the image in iphoto, does this then become permanent aka I cannot revert to the original?
    Yes you would have to manually delete the files. No, you can still Revert To Original.
    3. If I do use the filing outside of iphoto is there a way to use automator to delete pictures when I trash them
    Not that I know off. I'm no Automator expert, but I looked in the Automator Library and could see nothing. The difficulty would be trying to make an internal app event (empty iPhoto Trash) match to a system event (Move to Trash) without a hook of some form from the Automator Library, Might be worth a post in the Automator Forum.
    4. Iam concerned about space; does iphoto create a duplicate file for each image that is modified in iphoto (what constitutes modifcation, just cropping etc, or rotating as well?).
    Yes, iPhoto makes an apparent duplicate of each file that is modified, and yes, modification includes any change. If your concerned about space, move the entire library to an external disk.
    I am still skeptical about not having any control over how the images are stored, thus my hesitancy about just going with iphotos database storing.
    The iPhoto Safety Net: If you go with the default setting in iPhoto your photo are stored - in plain view - at Home/Pictures/iPhoto Library Folder in the Originals folder, where they are organised in Rolls (really just a folder) based on Date. You can go there and visit them anytime. They are just as accessible as in your own file structure.
    The iPhoto Library Folder is organised as follows:
    There are various files, which are the Library itself and some ancillary files. Then you have three folders
    Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
    (ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
    This allows the Photos -> Revert to Original command
    (iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
    But remember, It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss.
    So essentially, the storage on iPhoto is as plain and secure as your own file system.
    Feel free to ask more if you need more.

    There are some tutorials here
    http://www.apple.com/aperture/tutorials/
    one of which is specific to Aperture/iPhoto
    Essentially though what you are wanting to do with your referenced master files is to
    File/Consolidate Master/
    Definitely worth having a read of the pro's and cons of managed vs referenced files.
    RB maintains a great site with a wealth of ideas on workflows, worth having a erad of these.

  • Error message: There is a problem accessing one or more files in your iPhoto library. Do you want iPhoto to repair permissions for this library for you?

    I have been using iPhoto for years.  Today when I tried to upload pictures from camera, I received the above error message.  I select "Repair", enter my password, and then a message "iPhoto was unable to repair permissions for the library" appears. I select "Quit" and it closes iPhoto.  Quit is the only option.  What has happened?  I have tried to access the photos via other avenues such as uploading to gmail, and the photos load fine.  I have about 28,000 photos.
    I do not know what version of iPhoto I am using as I am unable to access the software.  I have a iMac OS X (10.7.5).  What should I do?

    Select the iPhoto application in the Applications folder and type Command+i to bring up its Info Window. There will tell the version number. If it's iPhoto 9 or later apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • I went into the original files in the iphoto library and organised the photos there, now when I try to look at the photos in iphoto the tiles are there but when I try to enlarge or put into a slide show a big grey explanation mark occurs?

    I tried to organise my iphoto originals to it would be easier to back them up onto my hard drive, so I renamed them and grouped them in the orinigal file. Now when I go onto iphoto to view the photos in a slide show a big exclamation mark comes up and if I click on the photo to see the original file it can't find it. Any ideas?

    You won't be able to run the rebuild function and restore your library becaue you renamed and regrouped your original photos from the Finder.  I doubt if you can change the names back to their original names and put them back in the folders they were in originally so your only option is get your backup library and replace the one you damaged. 
    If you don't have a backup copy of the library from just before the problem that contains all of your photos you will need to start over from scratch as follows: 
    Start over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1.  Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    2. Open the library package like this.
    Click to view full size
    3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    4. Drag the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    Click to view full size
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    In the future stay out of the iPhoto Library package and only access the photos using iPhoto.

  • Changing the file location of iPhoto library...????

    I have a 13' Macbook since early 2008 with an 80gb hard disk.
    I also have a 500gb Time Capsule..
    Due to the size of my hard disk and my music collection amassing already 80gb+ I changed the file location of the iTunes music library to the Time Capsule.. this wasn't too difficult to work out how to do, but, i now have over 50gb of photos and videos in iPhoto and do not want to delete any. This has resulted in my hard disk/start up disk being full to capacity.
    I now of course need to change the location of my iPhoto library from being on the MacintoshHD to being on my Time Capsule, but unlike with iTunes i can find no way of doing this... can anybody help??
    thanks in advance

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    but
    1. Have you a wired or wireless connection to the Time Capsule? A strong warning: If you're trying to edit the Library (that is, make albums, move photos around, keyword, make books or slideshows etc.) or edit individual photos in it via Wireless be very careful. Dropouts are a common fact of wireless networking, and should one occur while the app is writing to the database then your Library will be damaged. Simply, I would not do this with my Libraries.
    2. Are you also using the TC for back ups? because the device is not intended for both back ups and general storage uses.

  • How do I back up AVI files from my iPhoto library to a CD or DVD?  I

    I am using iPhoto 8 , exporting album, save as jpegs named sequentially. I did not think about the avi files from my camera, that are now on the cd or dvd as jpegs.  I'm doing this as I want the original files, not just the iPhoto library and plan to reinstall on a new Mac.

    Create a smart album with either of one of these criteria:  Kind is Movie or File Name conatins .avi.  Then select all of the movies and export them to a folder(s) on the desktop via File ➙ Export ➙ File Export with Formate = Original.  This will get the movie files into folders ready to be burned to disk.

    UPDATE: Image Buddy will work with V5 libraries that were converted to V6 but won't recognize fresh V6 libraries. iPhoto Library Manager does recognize fresh V6 libraries as well as converted V5 libraries.
    As a note, I imported (leaving the originals in their original location) 3362 image files into a library in 28 minutes.
