Data retrieval in I Photo 09

Help! My daughter-in-law and I both have Mac Book Pro's, not the latest version, with OS 10.6.3 and I Photo 09. She has not backed up her laptop and it crashed, and won't boot up. I removed her internal hard drive and placed a spare I had and her Mac Book Pro works perfectly. I put her original internal drive into a USB enclosure and opened it on my Mac Pro's desk top. I've been able to transfer most files although some are corrupted. Her I Photo data file containing all her photos won't transfer because some of the JPG's are also corrupted. It gets about a quarter of the way and I get the error message. I've tried opening her data file with my I Photo but it won't open. Is there any way to open this file so you can see the individual photos and transfer the ones that are OK? By the by, I've tried Teck Tool Pro, Drive Genius and Disk Utility to repair the drive, no go. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried depressing the option key and launching iPhoto and selecting her library on the USB drive? If that works then you have a good iPhoto library and can move it as a single entity
the iPhoto library is a single entity and you can not move it in pieces - you need to drag the entire iPhoto library intact as a single entity from one drive to the other

  • I have an ipad 2 and just upgraded to IOS 8 I have never back up my photos and I lost all of them after upgrade is there a way to retrieve all the photos I lost?

    I Have an ipad 2. I have never back up my photos ever since setting it up or ever since I bought it. Wiith all the previous upgrades that I have  I never lost any photos and videos taken from the ipad itself. Now I upgraded to the new IOS 8 and all my photos and videos are all gone. Is there a way to retrieve the lost photos and videos?

    Did you have I cloud that automatically back up you data to iCloud backup happens when you charge your iPad Have a look in Settings iCloud backup If you do then all your photos will be safe When you have iCloud if you buy a new iPhone / iPad And you use the same Apple ID all your Apps & photos will download to your new Device Cheers Brian

  • Need data retrieval recommendations for the UK only please

    Hey folks.
    I just wanted to say that I had a problem with strange sounds off my hard disk, the lengthy restarts and problems waking up the computer after battery being empty and finally my hard disk died completely.
    With 17 months under its belt this Hitachi 80GB hard disk ought not to have died but this happens. Sadly I was ABOUT to back up (isn't that always the way?) but had not managed (due to the problems) and so lost some EXTREMELY valuable data. ie photos (numbering 400 and about 600 others) of my grandfather who was taken into hospital for heart failure aged 91 on the VERY SAME DAY.
    Now- I am NOT letting this hard disk go. I have been told by the kind but very slow (Apple took over a fortnight to send them a replacement disk and they had it for 16 days in the end- I went mad) folk who repaired it, it is the mechanism which failed and not the platters which melted or otherwise warped.
    So- this means that the chances of data retrieval are high. BUT- I have had one quote from the firm they recommended and was told it could be as much as £1,300 on the slowest service. Now, as you will appreciate, there IS no value which can be placed on such precious things as memories of a loved one but SURELY there is a chance that someone here has knowledge of a more- erm- cost efficient method?
    LOOOOONG story short: Can you recommend anyone in the UK area who does a good job retrieving data from what has been deemed a high probability recovery?
    Anything I need to know about the subject? All I can tell you is that this WILL involve removing the platters from the mechanism and placing them to another, functioning one with the probability of needing to back up in the region of 20GB.
    Your help in this is so very gratefully received. I am thankful you users are here to hold my hand on this.

    Posted this under the correct header as well- 15 Powerbook. Resolved it myself- went on the net and just picked one. Was semi-successful and if you are needing info check it out- I have explained this there.

  • UK data retrieval recommendations?  REALLY value data is currently MIA!

    Accidently posted this in 12" PB (not sure how!):
    LOOOOONG story short: Can you recommend anyone in the UK area who does a good job retrieving data from what has been deemed a high probability recovery chance internal G4 Powerbook Hitachi hard disk?
    Anything I need to know about the subject? Like is an expensive company necessarily that much better? Quote I have so far is for upto £1,300 for this and I will pay it if it need be but thought I'd ask for word of mouth recommendations first.
    All I can tell you is that this WILL involve removing the platters from the mechanism and placing them to another, functioning one, due to the fact that my old hard drive died suddenly from mechanism failure according to the Apple folk who replaced it with another and who could not "spin it up".
    Probability is I need to back up in the region of 20GB.
    Your help in this is so very gratefully received as the data missing includes 400 photos of my 91 year old granddad who was taken ill the same day as the failure and hasn't got long.

    OK- this is an update for those who come after.
    I sent this hard disk as is to Fields Data Recovery who quoted me a free appraisal and £465 for the job if it proved possible. This compares rather favourably to Ontrack Data Recovery who charge £85 plus VAT for the appraisal and anything between £450 to £1,200 for the job depending on the complexity.
    I warn anyone- you only EVER get what you pay for. So- work out how precious your data is to you and deal accordingly.
    I took a gamble and won- I got PART, and the right part, of my data back.
    Lesson? Back-up, back-up and BACK-UP! I now own a smart 250GB Lacie (such a smart machine!) and it does well- backing up data on a weekly basis for the eventuality. Another tip- if you can possibly afford it, have TWO back up external drives! One to be stored in a completely different location. Nice tip from my lovely technicians who repaired my beloved laptop.

  • Query Error Information: Result set is too large; data retrieval ......

    Hi Experts,
    I got one problem with my query information. when Im executing my report and drill my info in my navigation panel, Instead of a table with values the message "Result set is too large; data retrieval restricted by configuration" appears. I already applied "Note 1127156 - Safety belt: Result set is too large". I imported Support Package 13 for SAP NetWeaver 7. 0 BI Java (BIIBC13_0.SCA / BIBASES13_0.SCA / BIWEBAPP13_0.SCA) and executed the program SAP_RSADMIN_MAINTAIN (in transaction SE38), with the object and the value like Note 1127156 says... but the problem still appears....
    what Should I be missing ??????  How can I fix this issue ????
    Thank you very much for helping me out..... (Any help would be rewarded)

    You may ask your basis guy to increase ESM buffer (rsdb/esm/buffersize_kb). Did you check the systems memory?
    Did you try to check the error dump using ST22 - Runtime error analysis?

  • WAD : Result set is too large; data retrieval restricted by configuration

    Hi All,
    When trying to execute the web template by giving less restiction we are getting the below error :
    Result set is too large; data retrieval restricted by configuration
    Result set too large (758992 cells); data retrieval restricted by configuration (maximum = 500000 cells)
    But when we try to increase the number of restictions it is giving output. For example if we give fiscal period, company code ann Brand we are able to get output. But if we give fical period alone it it throwing the above error.
    Note : We are in SP18.
    Whether do we need to change some setting in configuration? If we yes where do we need to change or what else we need to do to remove this error
    Regards
    Karthik

    Hi Karthik,
    the standard setting for web templates is to display a maximum amount of 50.000 cells. The less you restrict your query the more data will be displayed in the report. If you want to display more than 50.000 cells the template will not be executed correctly.
    In general it is advisable to restrict the query as much as possible. The more data you display the worse your performance will be. If you have to display more data and you execute the query from query designer or if you use the standard template you can individually set the maximum amount of cells. This is described over  [here|Re: Bex Web 7.0 cells overflow].
    However I do not know if (and how) you can set the maximum amount of cells differently as a default setting for your template. This should be possible somehow I think, if you find a solution for this please let us know.
    Brgds,
    Marcel

  • My iPhone 5s on ios 8.1.2 is stuck at Apple logo or recovery mode.. To fix this issue, i need to update it to ios 8.2 through itunes.. I want to ask that my data i.e. Photos and other personal data would be removed after updating it or not..?

    My iPhone 5s on ios 8.1.2 is stuck at Apple logo or recovery mode.. To fix this issue, i need to update it to ios 8.2 through itunes.. I want to ask that my data i.e. Photos and other personal data would be removed after updating it or not..?
    if yes then how can i save my data or get out of recovery mode.. Is there any safe mode or something like that on which i could access my data..
    P.S. I have not taken any backup of my iPhone on itunes..
    Please help me sort out this issue..

    Recovery mode doesn't mean that all your data is already lost. You only lose your data if you restore it.
    When you plug the phone is into iTunes hold down the home button. iTunes may then give you the option JUST to update the software first. This should not get rid of any data.
    However, if iTunes is only giving you the option to RESTORE and update, then you will lose your data I'm afraid.
    Hope that helps!

  • How to print date & time stamp on photos?

    How to print date & time stamp on photos?

    Three methods:
    File>process multiple files>labels. Be sure to uncheck "same as source", or the originals will be overwritten. It is best to work on duplicate files, esp. while learning.
    Use the horizontal or vertical type tool to add the information manually to each picture file
    If the same information is to be applied to several pictures, e.g. a copyright notice, use  of a brush made in PSE is very efficient

  • Real tough data retrieval - assistance needed

    Late 2011 Macbook Pro with 500GB hard drive
    Lion 10.7
    One morning out of absolutely nowhere I get this grey screen with a flashing question mark folder. I take it to the geniuses at the Apple store and they tell me my hard drive has failed (no explanation). My mac is under warranty so they gave me a new hard drive for free, bagged my old hard drive and told me "good luck" retrieving the data.
    I'm on a mission to retrieve the data without paying for services. I have never retrieved data before but I've been doing a lot of forum reading and I have been getting protips from an IT friend who has saved my PC data before.
    As of now, I have been unable to even access the hard drive and so I am reaching out to the community to help me conquer this project.
    the problem is not the OS (according to Apple store)
    when hooking up with the dongle, neither Finder nor Disk Utility detect the bad drive
    the drive will spin when forced by the dongle (so I've ruled out the freezer method)
    I was advised (by friends and forums alike) to download so powerful data retrieval software:
    Data Rescue [did not detect bad external drive]
    Disk Drill [did not detect bad external drive]
    TestDisk (http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk) [I can get it up and running but I have no idea how to use this software]
    So that seems to be the big problem, when I hook up my failed drive as an external hard drive, there is no acknowledgement from my MBP that it is connected and as such data recovery programs cannot access it. When I still had it installed in my computer, there was no clicking sound and it doesn't seem like any of the components are jammed up as it still spins.
    Where do I go from here? Please keep in mind that I am new to resolving my own technical problems but I'm willing to learn. Tired of being one of those people who look at computer parts and get anxious.
    NOTE: I haven't tried Target Mode as I do not have a firewire cable or access to another mac (yet). If you think I should try this, please let me know.

    A hard drive that will not divulge BOTH its Make&Model and a reasonable size/capacity to the likes of Disk Utility and data rescue programs has died, and connot be repaired with any software.
    Target Disk mode will not improve anything. The drive is read as a Mac Volume by software. If it won't mount under Mac OS X, it won't mount under Target Disk Mode.

    I dropped my iPhone 4 in water and now it won't turn on at all, will i lose all of my data, for example my photos and messages etc? and is there any way you can back the phone up without having it switched on?

    If you had previously been backing up to iCloud (or a computer with iTunes), you would possibly have a backup.  That said, if you can't turn the phone on, you cannot create a backup of the device now.  Sorry.

  • Should I use a data retrieval service or software to recover data ?

    Please pardon the length of this post.
    Here's the setup for our office:
    Computer 1:
    10.4.8 OS X
    1 GHZ PowerPC G4: silver grey tower, grey apple
    1MB L3 Cache
    256 MB DDR SDRAM
    Computer 2:
    10.4.8 OS X
    Dual 450 MHZ PowerPC G4: blue grey tower, blue apple
    256 MB SDRAM
    Computer 3:
    10.4.8 OS X
    1 GHZ PowerPC G4 IMac Flat Screen:
    256 MB DDR SDRAM
    I have 2 LaCie Big Disk d2 Extremes daisy chained and connected to the IMac. We use the first to store all of our data to keep our local disks free. The second d2 is the backup to the first. The other 2 computers connect to the d2's via an ethernet hub. The d2's are each partitioned into 4 compartments.
    A couple of days ago I started the system up when I got in in the morning, and the main d2 would not open. I ran disk utility, but it said that the drive was damaged beyond it's ability to repair. I ran DiskWarrior, and it gave me this message:
    "The directory of disk 'G4' cannot be rebuilt. The disk was not modified. The original directory is too severely damaged. It appears another disk utility has erased critical directory information. (3004, 2176)."
    I contacted Disk Warrior tech support and after a series of exchanges that had me send him dated extracted from the terminal function, he said this:
    "It appears that the concatenated RAID inside your LaCie
    drive has failed (your 500GB drive is actually 2 250GB
    hard drives). That is why we only saw 2 partitions
    on "disk3". A possible cause could be a failed bridge
    in the case.
    You may be looking at sending this drive to a data recovery service.
    However, it is possible that we may be able to recover data
    from the partitions that we CAN see. What we would be doing would cause no damage to your data
    unless the hard drives were having a mechanical failure (ie, the
    head crashed and was contacting the platters, similar to scratching
    a record). But from what I've seen, I don't feel that is the case.
    I believe the piece of hardware that 'bridges' the two drives to
    make them act as one has failed. that's why we can only see data
    about 1 of the 2 drives in the case.
    We would only be attempting to gather data off the drive. Since
    data recovery services sometimes charge for amount of data retrieved,
    it's up to you how you want to proceed."
    Most of the data from the past 5 years for our business stands at being lost. Only some of it had been properly backed up on the second drive, due to some back up software issues. I want to do whatever I can to retrieve all of, or at least some of the data. From what the Alsoft technician said, do you think that the data recovery software available to the consumer is going to be robust enough to retrieve at least the data from the one disk in the drive that is recognizable (there are 2 250gig disks in the d2X. Only one is responding at all). If so, do these Softwares further damage the disks? Or should I just send the drive to a data recovery service?
    I'd like to try to extract some of it myself via over the counter retrieval software, but I don't know whether to trust these programs?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    My 2 cents:
    I have used FileSalvage
    http://www.subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?mainpage=product_info&productsid=1
    to recover files from damaged disks. It works as advertised, within limits. Some files may be too damaged to recover. More importantly yo get to scan the disk before actually recovering, and it will give you a list of what it thinks it can recover.
    My experience was that it recovered approx 85% of the data.
    YMMV but they do have a trial.

    Re: My Macbook 2009 model was recently upgraded with a new hard drive and upgraded to Mountain Lion OS. I am battling to retrieve all my photos that were ''saved'' in iCloud. Can someone help?

    If you are trying to recover photo stream photos, they are only held in iCloud for 30 days.  All you would be able ro recover is photo stream photos from the last 30 days.
    If you have an iOS device that still has the photo stream photos one it, you can save them to the camera roll by opening the my photo stream album, tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  Once in the camera roll, they can be imported to iPhoto on your Mac as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
