Events in photo are scrambled
Since I upgraded to Yosemite and ios8.1 Events in Photo on my mobile devices (iPadAir and iPhone 5s) are scrambled although they are in alphabetical order ascending (sort event) on my Mac. I sync selected photos with iTunes and they are in alpha order there.
How can I have in the same order on my mobile devices as on my Mac?
When I want to find a photo on my mobile I have to find the disorganised Event. Let's hope Apple fix this.
Frankly, I am a bit sceptical. If you enable the iCloud Photo Library Beta, syncing iPhoto libraries with iTunes will be completely disabled, so the only future way to get photos to your iDevices will be iCloud.
You may want to send feedback to Apple to increase the probability for the fix. Apple - iPhoto - Feedback

For some unknown reason, events and photos in my Iphoto are appearing blank. The photos have a title / placeholder but no picture. I use time machine and have back ups, my goal is to restore the photos without creating duplicates. Unfortunately iphoto sees the blank photos as if the picture exists? Help
If you want to use your back up you need to restore then entire Library from Time Machine, and then replace the damaged Library with it.

Iphoto 08. Event photos are not all visible under "photos"
I have a number of photos that are visible when I look for them by event. However, when I switch to photo view they are not there. Any recommendations?
Events and photos are simply different ways of viewing the same iPhoto library
Do you have "event titles" turned on in the photos view so you can verify this?
My guess is that the photos view has event titles turned off and that the photos your are "missing" are simply sorted somewhere different than you expect

MAC; OS X Yosemite 10.10.3.
All my photos on the MAC were in events named by me.
Now, with this upgrade, all my photos are without my event names and named by iphoto by date and location (sometimes incorrect). I do not like this at all. I want to return to my events. How can I do this??Moments in Photos are the new Events, i.e. groupings of photos sorted by date taken.
When the iPhoto Library was first migrated to Photos there was a folder created in the sidebar titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events (which are now Moments) are represented by an album in that folder. To open the sidebar if it's not already open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
There's a way to simulate events in Photos.
When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N. Name it as desired. It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window.
The downside to the simulation is that the Albums/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title. But they can also be sorted manually, either in the sidebar or in the folder's window at the right.
Ask Apple for more sorting options in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html. -
I uploaded around 200 photos into iphoto, I worked on these photos breifly, cropping and deleting some, then iphoto crashed.. and when I relaunched it the photos were missing from both the events section and the last import showed nothing. I also looked in the Trash for the deleted photos, and that was empty too..
Now the photos are reappearing in PhotoSteam, all be it very slowly... I cant seem to find the orginals anywhere... I have tried to reoganise the events by ascending and descending to see if they are hiding... but I am unable to see any evidence of them.
Can anyone help. My computer is about 1 week old, however I did take all the photos from my Mac Notebook, which I think has taken some dodgeOption 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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, 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.

I imported about 300 RAW images yesterday and worked with them for about an hour. iPhoto locked up on me and I rebooted. After I did the event icon for that event is now gray and it says there are no photos. I know the photos are there. Any idea how I can recover them?
a best practice to is to never have any computer program (including iPhoto) delete the photos from the card but to import the photos and keep them and then after at least one successful backup cycle has completed and then reformat the card -- I use three very large (32 GB) cards in rotation so I do not reformat for typically a year or more giving me one more long term backup of my photos
Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

I copied my iPhoto library to an external hard drive and the event windows show up black.
The photos are still there once I click on an event but they don't show in the window.
My next step is to delete the iPhoto library from the internal memory to free some memmory space but I don't want to do this until I see that the library works fine on the external hard drive.
How do I fix that?Hold down the "option" + "command" keys and launch iPhoto.
Select the "Rebuild Thumbnails" choice. -
I need instruction and not understanding Photos. When I put photos from my Canon Camera through the Apple Connector - SD Card Reader, the photos are displayed in the Photo App. They are duplicated in many areas: Photos, PhotoStream, Albums, and Events. Is this the way Apple does this? Can I just have photos in one place in the app? BTW: my PhotoStream setting is on on the iPAD4 and on my iPHONE 5. Should I turn off? If they are duplicated in all areas, are they taken up space on my iPAD?Please advise.
Also, can I delete multiple photos on my iPAD4 without selecting each one? I don't seem to see a Select All option. Also, I am not sure when I see this dialogue box on the iPAD4, but it seems I only get Delete Everywhere instead of just Delete. Why? Is there a setting I need to know about.
When I connect my iPAD4 through the hardwire to my PC, can I just create a folder and copy my photos on my iPAD4 to my PC. They will not remove them from the iPAD4, correct?Basically within the photo app, there are sever views available, each having a different purpose, but only one file per image (at least I'm fairly certain that's how it works). Start off with the Photos section of the user guide (link below). It may not answer all of your questions, but will give you a good starting place.

When I connect my iPod touch to my computer, I have a list of Events on my iTunes-iPod-Photos. I want to erase these Events. However, the photos are NOT on my MacBook Air-iPhoto. When I check one of the Events and then hit Apply, the photos appear on my iPod. And one last thing: When I connect the iPod and open iPhoto, iPhoto tries to load New Photos (I think), but nothing happens. Any ideas?
Resolved.

Some of my photos are suddenly not showing inside the event. The event is still present as well as the title and number of photos in the event, but the photo is not showing. I get a black thumbnail with a dashed white box inside it. Any suggestions? It has not happened in all events, only a handful.
ThanksThat's an indication that the link/file path to the original file has been broken. Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
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
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
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 but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory. -
On iPhone IOS6 i have events and photos which are not in my iPhoto 11 event library.
On iPhone IOS6 i have events and photos which are not in my iPhoto 11 event library.
I have noticed that on the itunes photo sync some more events and even several event per day are created but these photos are not in my iPhoto standard pictures (more events on iPhone tha.
Some of these pictures i have trashed them but they still appear in sync on iTunes.
How can I clean this?
These pictures are even not in trash bin because i empty it.

How do you transfer photos to external backup and keep the photos in events with event name or with description name. Each time I have tried to transfer them they only transfer with a jpg number so you don't know what photos are what. When you have several thousand photos it is difficult to determined what is what.
Why does iPhoto have the ability to put photos in events and to give them descriptions if it doesn't transfer this info with the photo. I want to back my photos up to an external drive.The simplest way to achieve what you want is to back up the iPhoto Library. That will get everything.
You sem to be exporting from iPhoto to the Finder. The Finder does not have the same organisation capabilities as iPhoto. If you're going to do that you need to understand some of the differences between the two.
Event Name will become Folder Name.
'Description Name' I guess is the Title you give the Photo
Jpeg Number is the File Name assigned by your camera.
So: File -> Export
Set your Kind to Jpeg
Select your preferred Quality
Check the Boxes at 'Titles and Descriptions' and Location Information
Under FIlename select 'Use Title'
Click on Export. In the Next Window choose a New Folder as your export destination and then Name that as you prefer

Photos are being added to my iPad, without choosing any events in iPhoto or having them sync with iCloud
I just upgraded to IOS6, and now my ipad is full of pictures I did not choose to sync.
I cannot delete them without deleting them from all sources.
Actually, the message is when I go to hit EDIT, select a picture, and then choose DELETE: "This photo is used in an album. Do you want to delete it everywhere? Delete Everywhere"
Does that mean "Everywhere" on my iPad, or everywhere including whatever place on my computer it found the photos to begin with?
PLEASE HELP
Ps:
I've already done this:
To delete photos from your device
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Click Apply.You can still sync the photos and keep the photos that are already on the device. You have to include all of the albums or events in the pictures folder that you sync from. If you are using iPhoto, select that in the Sync Photos from drop down menu and then select all of the albums or events that you want to sync. Make sure to check Selected Albums, events, faces and automatically include (no events). Using that option will allow you to choose exactly which albums and events to sync.
You have to remember that all photos must be included in every sync so you cannot sync photos from iPhoto today and then try to sync photos from another folder tomorrow, or you will erase all of the photos that were synced from iPhoto. You need to maintain one main Photos syncing folder for the photos that you want to transfer to the iPad. You can have subfolders within that one main folder and you can selectively sync those subfolders. You just have to place all of the photos that you want to sync into one main iPad syncing photos folder.
There are WiFi transfer apps that allow you to transfer photos to the iPad without having to sync with iTunes. I use this one. This app (and others like it) will allow you to use multiple computers to transfer photos.

My key photos are not showing up in Events anymore.
Can't think of any changes I've made since yesterday. The photos are still there when I click on the thumbnail. But the thumbnail itself is blank. By blank I mean a greyed out palm tree. The titles and dates show along the bottom of each thumbnail but not the number of photos in each event. The number is given as 0. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Many thanks.Have you restared your system recently - if not try it

My Photos are not showing up in Events
When I import photos from my digital camera, I can't find the photos in my events. I can find them in my "Last Import" however, there is no event created with these photos in them. Can you help me find the event and put it in chronological order?
If the photos are in last import then they are in your library and therefore in an event
The most common reason for users not being able to find the event their photo is in is having the camera date set wrong - in last import select a photo and click info and see what the time/date of the photo is and then go back to events and (be sure they are sorted in time/date order - view menu ==> sort events) and look at that time/date
If the photos have the wrong time/date select them and use the adjust date and time menu item to correct them
