HELP, All I can see are thumbrpints from my camera download...
I downloaded pictures from my camera and made sure there were there. The next time I went to look at them all it would pull up were the thumbprints, it would not open up the picture in iphoto. I may have updated my iphot software in the mean time...please help these pictures are very special and the only memories I have of a very special day.
Thanks!

Where? In iPhoto?
it would not open up the picture in iphoto
Did you get an exclamation point !?
If so, did you change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder? The exclamation point means that iPhoto has lost the lonk between the thumbnail and the file to which it refers.
The most common cause of the exclamation point is the User changing something in the iPhoto Library Folder. 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.
If you have not changed anything in the iPhoto Library Folder then try rebuild the iPhoto Library. To do this, hold down the Apple and Option keys when opening iPhoto and the resulting dialogue will give you the opportunity to rebuild the Library.
In the meantime, have a look into the iPhoto Library Folder at Home/Pictures/iPhoto Library Folder. In there you will see a folder called Originals. Are your pics in there?
Post back with your results.

We just downloaded a movie from Itunes but the picture is completely scrambled. Audio is fine but all you can see are funny color pixels on the screen..how do we fix this?
The movie is from iTunes. You would think that a download from iTunes to a MacBook could be watched on an HDTV using Apple TV without any headaches bit this does not appear to be the case.

Text tool not working in photoshop CC, all I can see are small boxes event with giant font
Hi there,
I am not sure what is going on here. I cannot get the Text to show up using the Text tool. All I can see are tiny boxes even made the font 60 points. SHould be huge. Been happening for more than a week and I ran an update via the cloud just last night. Did not fix it yet. Ideas?I find Points are not the most predictable unit to use for text, and p[refer a linear size like inches or mm. Have a look at your image size. If it has a very high pixel size, together with a low dpi (72) then that would give you what you are seeing. If your image size is 4 inches by 8 inches, then regardless of what the dpi is, if you used inches instead of points for text sizing, then you would know to expect 2 inch text to be one quarter the hieght of your document.
Does that make sense? -

can I move all my photo that I can see on iPhoto from my Mac hardrive and put them on an external hard drive and still be able to see them as thumbnails in iPhoto? Thanks! The reason, I need to know if I can do this is b/c I am running out of HD space!sp
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library 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.

I'm 67 yrs. old.I live in the U.K. I want to use my credit in i-tunes to find the Yoga Studio app. for my MacBook Air laptop.All I can find are apps. for i-phones,i-pads and i-pods.Can anyone help please.
Apps for OSX aren't in iTunes: they are in the App Store in your Applications folder. The payment method is the one registered in iTunes. There's no app actually called Yoga Studio, though there are several Yoga apps. There is an iOS app called Yoga Studio but it appears to have no OSX equivalent, though I haven't done a detailed search.

I want to create and then email holiday cards from my iMAC, preferably in spanish but english would be OK. All I can find are IOS apps. Are then any OS X apps to do this? Thanks!
Two apps that I have that do different types of greeting cards.
The Print Shop Pro.
Swift Publisher
And, if I remember correctly, the free image editor, Gimp, has templates for different greeting cards, also. -
My iMac holds my main iTunes account and it shows 4 devices are authorized to play iTunes. I can only name 3. How do I find out a list of all the devices that are authorized from this computer?
I don't believe this is possible, but you can deauthorize all your computers and start over if you are concerned.

Best of luck -
All photos can see in small icons in iPhoto,but can't open it or see it!
Dear all,
I got problem in iPhoto, please help!
All photos can see in small icons in iPhoto, but I can't open it or can't see it when I click on photos (it always appear black & white "!" inside big circle. I even can't sync any of these photos in my iPhone.
Kindly helps!
Many thanks!
FannyThe ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
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 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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* 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.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
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 (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) 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.

I turn on my computer and all I can see is 2 lines?
All I Can Seee On My Screen Is 2 Lines!!
Hello,
Sounds to me like your iBook is suffering from a problem with the display or graphics chip. It could be something a simple as the video cable that runs from the base to the screen.
In the first instance I would reset the PMU just to see if that can help. -
I have a large library of music on my iphone 5s. I have just upgraded to iphone6. I believe I need to have all my music in my itunes library to transfer it to my new phone - however all I can see in my itunes library is music I have purchased recently. This library of music is from years ago. Ho can I get all my music on my new phone ? Thanks
See turingtest2's user tip on Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. You should, however, maintain your library on your PC and maintain a regular backup of it. iPhones are neither designed as nor suitable as data storage devices.

All my old photos are missing from iPhoto on my Mac- any one have ideas on how to retrieve?
All my old photos are missing from iPhoto on my Mac- any one have ideas on how to retrieve?
Do you have a Time Machine backup or any backup of your Mac? Then you could try to restore from the backup.
If your photos are very important documents, you could also try data recovery software. Usually the trial versions are free, but if you want to safe the recovery photos you have to pay. Disk Drill works well to recover jPEG photos, see: http://www.cleverfiles.com/
It is still not obvious what might have happened to your iPhoto Library. Have you searched for different iPhoto Libraries?
You can search everywhere with FindAnyFile, where Spotlight will not search.
I learned this from Old Toad , see his post here:
Re: My iPhoto Library disappeared...how do I get it back?
Download and run Find Any File to search for a file with "ThumbJPGSegment" in the file name. These are files common to all versions of iPhoto libraries.
FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If there's a library hiding somewhere on your hard drive FAF will find it.
