Following an upgrade I can't see any of my photos

Hi,
I have just upgraded my iPhoto but it is acting as if I haven't got any photos in my library. When I go to the iPhoto Library icon, I can see that the file size is 118GB so I checked the package contents, and there's nothing in the Masters folder but there's a new folder called "Old Masters" where all of the files are contained. Is there any way of either showing the photos from this folder in the application of getting them moved to the Masters folder so that everything can go back to normal?
Thanks,
Jordan

Yosemite, iPhoto 9.6 upgrade, large photo library is not recognised.
and note User Zaxe's post on the second page. This is only known resolution for this issue short of making a new library and starting over from scratch.

Did you turn photo stream on in Settings>iCloud? If so, you will only get photo stream photos from the last 30 days as earlier photo stream photos are no longer in iCloud.

Help - Can't See any of my photos

Hoping that someone can help me - I am really at a loss here.
I am using Lightroom 1.3.1 on a Vista 64 system with 8G RAM. Things had been working fine, but suddenly I cannot see any of my picture, either in the Library module or in the Develop module.
In the Library module, I just see gray boxes for the thumbnails. When I originally open the Lightroom, there are no thumbnails, but when I mouse over them, the gray thumbnails appear. They also appear very disorganized - for example the gray thumbnail box for the "2" frame is upside down and the "2" label is reversed (mirror image). The filestrip view is similar.
If I go to the develop module, all I see is a gray box instead of the picture itself.
I've tried a few things - I deleted the preferences file and recreated it. I verified the integrity of the catalog. I tried creating a new catalog and I tried uninstalling and re-installing Lightroom. Nothing that I have done changes what I see.
Help - I am at a loss as to what to try next!
Thanks,
Paul

Well it actually uses the Profile which many another app wont bother to do, so if it is a corrupt profile it reacts differently that other apps.

Upgraded to LR 5.6 now can't see any of my photos

I upgraded to LR 5.6 but none of my photos are visible. All I get is a grey box. If I go into develop mode the histogram is displayed but again no photo.

Further to my previous reply. In Lightroom 5.6, if I go into Develop mode the histogram for the photo appears but no photo. I can then open the photo Photoshop CC and my photo is displayed with no problems.

Since recent upgrade, I can't see any of my projects in Shutterfly. Their customer support says it may be issue with Java app and Adobe Flash Player

see above-- are there known issues with these apps?

Your Java player (if relevant) is not clearly indicated in your plugins list, and your Flash player is several versions behind. If Apple has an update site, you might check that first. Mozilla's site is here: http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/

Iphoto crashed after "successful import" but during the "finishing import" stage - i had selected to delete the imported photos on my phone...iphoto crashed after 90% of the photos had been deleted. Now i can't see any of the photos on iphoto

Hi guys, I was importing about 5000 photos from my phone onto my computer. it said the import was successful but did i want to delete or keep the photos on the original device. I opted to delete photos. The photos started to count down as they deleted and the computer said "finishing import". Once it had deleted down to about 600 photos iphoto simply disappeared, and a message popped up to say it had crashed. I opted to reopen iphoto and saw that not one of the photos had imported! Not only that but now all the photos have been deleted from my phone. I'm really upset if i've lost the last year of photos/ videos....does anyone know what has happened/ if i can recover them?
thanks so much in advance x

Not sure where you got those ideas - simply import your photos and keep the rather than deleting - then after a successful import and at least one back up cycle you can format the card if you want or you can do what I do and keep the photos moving to a new card when that one is full giving you yet another backup - if problems occurs then trouble shoot them - no need to trouble shoot if there is no problem
ad personally I find removing the card and plugging it into my card reader is faster and easier than finding the USB cable and hooking it up, turning on the camera, verifying that tty e battery is charged, etc - and it eliminates a point of failure in the USB cable and the chance of the camera battery running out - but that is clearly a personal choice
You are overthinking this - it is simple
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

Can't see any of my photos in iPhoto for Mac

I've had an iMac Late 2012 for two years. Since then, I've kept all my photos from my camera and my iPhone in the iMac's iPhoto app.
For some months, I'd been having a constant problem: The events' icons were empty and it said the event's name and that it had 0 photos (each one had lots of photos). However, if I double clicked on the event, I could open it and I could see all the photos correctly.
But, since last week I have a very serious problem with iPhoto. When I open iPhoto, it says something like how to import photos (as if I hadn't ever used it before), all my photos, events, etc. are gone. However, I realized something that maybe didn't make me so sad. I went to Finder > Photos > iPhoto library, I right clicked it and selected "Show information" (I'm from Argentina and my Mac is in Spanish, so I'm trying to translate the things of the Mac to English the best I can), and Finder says its size is 86 GB (so I hope all my photos and videos are here!!!).
Extra data: 1. I right clicked the iPhoto Library folder in Finder and chose Show the content of the package, and there are two folders with the iPhoto Library icon called: Library.iPhoto and Library 6.iPhoto, both size is 22 bytes. Maybe could help you realize which is the problem.
2. I also tried to updating my Mac to the last beta version, but the Photos app didn't solve my problem.
That you sooooo much for your help,
Greetings,
Nicolas.

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 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.

Now that my PSE 11 trial has ended, I can't see any of the photos/albums/layouts I made in PSE 9.

I simply can't afford the upgrade at this time, but I did a lot of stuff during the month I used the trial and don't want to lose it all!

In E11, one can't open Elements Organizer too after the trial has expired.

I've just spent the last three hours importing photos from a portable hard drive. Now I can't see any of the photos I imported instead there is a black/white photo of a palm tree, setting sun and water? HELP!

Help!

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.

FROM MY IPHOTOS I COULDN'T OPEN ANY PHOTOS EVEN I CAN'T SEE ANY THING ABOUT PHOTOS

HI,
WHEN I CLICK MY IPHOTO , IT'S CAN OPEN IT BUT ITS SAYS LIKE THIS - Shout down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command keys pressed. You can also try restoring your photo library from a backup...... so i did shout down so many time, then i restart it but its shows same thing again and again, and i still couldn't open it

and when you restored from your backup?

I honestly don't know if DW CS5 is compatible with Win 8.1. The OS compatibility FAQ only mentions DW CS6 & CC.

Maybe someone else can shed more light on this.

I installed Prokit 7 upgrade and now I can't see any of my type 1 fonts when in Indesign or Photoshop

I installed Prokit 7 upgrade today and now I can't see any of my type 1 fonts when in Indesign or Photoshop. Not sure if the upgrade did it, but it seemed to coincide with the problem. I am a graphic artist spend all day everyday using these programs, hardly ever have a font problem. Anyone have a similar problem?

I reinstalled Prokit 7 upgrade and it did not fix the problem.
I put my fonts in user/library/fonts, where I have always put them and when I am in any Creative suite app. the only fonts visible in the font list are open type and TT fonts. No type 1 fonts appear in the list even though I have them in the fonts folder. They do not appear in fontbook either.

I can't see any animated wallpapers after upgrade of ios7 on my iphone 5, only my wallpaper when I started the upgrade process

I can't see any animated wallpapers after upgrade of ios7 on my iphone 5, only my default wallpaper selected when I started the upgrade process. Can I download the default animated wallpaper of ios 7?
thank you
ps. I'm apologize for my bad english language

A different approach would be to:
1. Delete the contents of the library on the desktop Window 7 computer;
2. Turn off iTunes Match;
3. Copy the contents of the Music folder from the working Windows 7 computer to the desktop Music folder;
4. Import the new contents of the Desktop music folder into the library;
5. Close / restart the iTunes client and confirm that the library has all the Songs as anticipated;
6. Turn on the iTunes Match service and allow it to run to completion.
This is a proven process on my Windows 7 computers and works very well.

I have been working on a wedding slideshow for days and have over 3,000 pictures in albums on iPhoto. It suddenly will not open without upgrading to Aperture and I can't find any of my photos!!!!

I have been working on a wedding slideshow for days and have over 3,000 pictures in albums on iPhoto. It suddenly will not open without upgrading to Aperture and I can't find any of my photos!!!! I need these photos, to complete the video, not to mention I don't want to lose them. I have had trouble ever since upgrading to Maverick.

Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

Following an upgrade I can't see any of my photos
