Find lost pictures

clicked on photo icon to discover 3000+ lost pictures, iPod was not backed up, any suggestions?

- If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up 
you said no backup
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Otherwise they are lost.

  • Find lost pictures from my disk app

    I pluged my iphone to a different computer and by mistake syncronised it. In the process I lost many apps but worst is all the privet document I had stored in the "My Disk" app. Does any one knows how I can get those document back?
    Thanks

    No, unless you have a backup.
    iPhone sync only with one computer. Syncing with another will delete iPhone content and replace with the new iTunes library.

  • Find lost pictures while exporting

    I somehow deleted my edited photos while exporting.  My library is showing zero pics.  Please help.

    First try restarting Lightroom and/or your computer, if still no go:
    Try renaming your preferences file, if still no go:
    Try a backup catalog.
    I think either Lightroom itself is wrapped around it's axle, or your catalog is on the blink.
    You can always try re-installing Lightroom, although my experience is that the problem is more often a data file than a program file.
    Good luck,

  • Lost pictures---cannot find volume

    I recently installed Leopard on my IMAC. Did the archive and erase method. More recently I installed an update from Photoshop CS2 to CS4. Now my wife gets "cannot find volume PICTURES" error message and has lost all her pictures. I lost all pictures except those that had been opened or worked up in PS.
    Under Finder, left side, the Picture volume seems to be not connected, but if I go to the hard drive Icon, I can find a pictures folder containing some recent additions to the folder. So it seems to be there, but it is not in the finder below Documents.
    On my login Pictures works, but most of my photos are gone. Help!
    Anybody got hints on how to find the pictures, and re-connect the pictures volume?

    Did the archive and erase method.
    NO you didn’t. You did either an +Erase and Install+ or an +Archive and Install+. There is no “archive and erase method”.
    Now my wife gets "cannot find volume PICTURES"
    The Mac is looking for a Volume called Pictures - not a folder, a Volume. A Volume is a disk, a partition of a disk or whatever.
    but if I go to the hard drive Icon, I can find a pictures folder containing some recent additions to the folder.
    This is the Pictures folder on your on your Start Up Volume.

  • I was importing photos to iphoto and somehow lost access to my iTunes library. when i open iPhoto, it asks me to select a library, but there are no photo libraries for me to select. I cant find my pictures and have no access to my iPhoto..

    I was importing photos to iphoto and somehow lost access to my iTunes library. when i open iPhoto, it asks me to select a library, but there are no photo libraries present for me to select. I cant find my pictures and have no access to my iPhoto.

    somehow lost access to my iTunes library.
    What does iTunes have to do with this?   Also more specific information might be helpful.
    What system and iPhoto versions are you running?
    Where are you being asked to select a library?  What kind of library, iPhoto or iTunes?
    What do you see when you first launch iPhoto?

  • I lost my last import when iPhoto quit. Is there a way to find these pictures?

    I lost my last import when iPhoto quit. Is there a way to find these pictures?

    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 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 Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    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.

  • How / where can I find my pictures/videos that's been lost from my iPad?

    I am just wondering how and where on my iPad can I find my lost pictures and videos4 months ago?

    Did you ever back anything up with iTunes? If not, at this point, those pictures and video are long gone. Sorry.

  • I can't find my pictures on iCloud.  Have I lost everything?

    I had the settings on my iphone to automatically backup to iCloud my camera roll, accounts, documents, etc. My iPhone's touchscreen went out and was unable to be fixed.  I cant find my pictures on iCloud.  Have I lost everything?

    Pictures are not saved to iCloud, they can be synced to PhotoStream.
    PhotoStream is accessible from other iDevices and the AppleTV. 
    If the device had been used as desigend, pictures taken with the device would have been regularly copied off the device to a computer.

  • I need to find my pictures as I had to backup my data and lost my pictures.  How can I restore them please, I need to find my pictures as I had to backup my data and lost my pictures.  How can I restore them please

    I have lost my pictures as I had to do a backup for data on my iphone and could not find my pictures.  Please help me to find pictures also on WhatsApp.

    That has not changed:
    Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
    If necessary
    iOS: Unable to import photos to computer - Apple Support
    If they were synced to the iPod then yo need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView

    I was warned and I went straight to the site and they were gone.  I didnt was any time. Either way, there should be a way to either store or restore such items. Have you ever lost pictures that were so important to you that you couldnt sleep or eat for some time. I have and it wasnt fun. I'm glad that you were able to get yours unlike some of us.

    I am still wondering why iTunes tries to confuse me every time I try to make changes in my preferences, telling me that I "don't have enough permissions", although I am the administrator.
    That's clearly a fault. Whether it's an iTunes problem or a Windows problem I can't say at this time. If you search the Using iTunes for Windows forum for "permissions", you should find threads that can help you sort out this problem.
    Then, changes to the format are not obvious, and I get no notice that I am burning music files as data.
    If you click on a playlist and look at the lower-right of the iTunes window, it says right there what format it will use to burn the playlist.

    Hi dreamafrombartow,
    I hope you are able to get your pictures back. Do you have a backup anywhere else?
    I did find a couple articles that may help with your recovery.

  • Lost Pictures, Help!!

    I cannot find any pictures after May 2012 on my external hard drive even though I did a COMPLETE back up in Feb. 2013. Where can I find my pictures on the external hard drive?
    I went to Users > "MaW1028" > Pictures > Right Click on Iphoto to show package contents
    However all I found were folders from 1999-2012. I really need these pictures back!!
    Any ideas?
    Thank you

    I'm happy to help out a user who's so good keeping good backups. Not everyone is as smart as you.
    Instead of using iPhoto, see if you can perform a Spotlight search (command-space), and see if you can locate pictures you know should be there; i.e., look for familiar image names that might lead you to your lost photos. Also, in iPhoto, see if you can find the photos in the Trash. I'm presumimg that the recent photos might still be on your computer's HD, somewhere.
    In Time Machine and even CarbonCopyCloner, you still might be able to retrieve your photos.

  • How can I find old pictures

    How can I find old pictures I have lost ?

    Pictures from where? Did you shoot the pictures with the iPad which would have them saved them to the Camera Roll? If so, you can restore from a backup if you have a backup with the photos in them.
    Do you ever backup your iPad? If not, there is no way to recover them.

  • Problems by moving folders - lost pictures

    Using LR 4.4 on OS X 10.7.5
    I have transferred some folders from my internal drive to an external (FW) drive. Whereas most of the transfer worked fine, I had the following problems:
    - one folder (at least) completely disappeared from LR. The files were moved to the new HDD (I can see them in Finder), an empty folder remains in LR under the "old" drive and there is nothing in LR at the new position.
    - an empty structure remained at the location of the old files
    - on some folders, I had the message "could not complete the folder move..." and only part of the pictures (or none at all) were moved.
    I am at a lost and quite disappointed by the whole process...

    It's ok, there is no damage in term of lost pictures. They are still somewhere to be found in the Finder. They just disappeared from LR (and yes, I have backups if needed ;-))
    I would just want to be able to correctly move everything within LR and still see all my files in the catalog without needing to import them again (and thus loosing the processing, ...)

  • How can I retrieve lost pictures on my ipad

    How can I retrieve lost pictures on my iPad?

    Did you delete the pics, or you just can't find them on your iPad?
    If you deleted them, they are gone as there is no Trash Can or Recycke Bin. If you have a backup, retrieve the pics from your backup.
