Help- I can't see my pictures!!!

The thumbnails are showing up, but I can't see them full size. I did go through and delete some things, but i put them all back. The pattern of pictures that I can see doesn't make sense either, even with the pictures taken on the same date- i can see some and can't see others. If anyone can offer any assistance, I will be VERY grateful!
Thanks Again!

Intrepid 007:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I suggest you take a look at this tip. It can help you prevent that type of loss:
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Do you Twango?

  • When I connect my iPad to my new Mac Pro, I can't see my pictures

    When I connect my iPad to my new Mac Pro, I can't see my pictures on iPhoto in Mac Pro under devices.I want to import my photos from iPad to Mac Book. Can you please help me?
    Thanks and regards,

    Oops ... You are correct. I misread your question. My sincere apologies. You want to import the photos from the iPad into iPhoto - not the other way around.
    Connect the iPad to the Mac with the cable and launch iPhoto. Your iPad should appears under the devices heading in iPhoto - in the left sidebar - just like it does in iTunes. Click on the iPad name. Then you can import the photos.

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.

  • HT4759 how can i see my pictures  iCloud

    how can i see my pictures in  icluod

    If you mean photo stream photos, you have to view them in iPhoto or Aperture if your Mac is signed into your iCloud account, or on your iOS device.  To see them on the web, you have to add them to a shared stream with the public website option enabled (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99).  This will give you a private url to view them on the web from a computer browser.

    You cannot view Photo Stream photos on iCloud.com.
    To view Photo Stream photos on your desktop you need a Mac running OS X 10.7.5 or later or a PC (via iCloud Control Panel) running Windows Vista or later.
    Mac: System Preferences > iCloud > Sign In > enable Photos
    PC: Install iCloud Control Panel > Sign In > enable Photos
    iCloud Control Panel 2.1.3 for Windows Vista
    iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows 7 or later

    My photos shrink in size when emailed from IPHOTO or attached - How can I fix this. My friends say they can't see my pictures... thanks!!

    When you email from iPhoto, you have a choice as to the size of the picture - choose medium and your friends will be able to see them.  By the way, do your friends click on the photo attachment  in the mail to open it?

    You should get the mobile version of YouTube which sends Firefox a notice to open it in the YouTube App. That will have a much better playback experience than running Flash in the browser.

  • Can't See My Pictures--Just Empty Boxes

    I just did a download of new pics from my camera to iPhoto. Somehow during the download I can't see my pictures in my library or in my albums. Just empty boxes show up. The count of the number of pics is accurate for both the albums and the library.
    I restarted my computer, and rebooted with no luck.
    I did a reboot holding down the "apple" and the "alt" key, and followed instructions, and still no pictures.
    Any ideas of what I can do?

    Danny:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What do you see in the library, empty thumbnail spaces or empty edit windows? Is it all the photos or just some? Check in the Originals folder to make sure you have the full sized image files in the subfolders. They should all be there. Also do you have folder in the iPhoto Library folder titled "Recent Imports" or something like that?
    Do you have a backup copy of the iPhoto Library folder or the iPhoto library database file, Library6.iPhoto?
    If not and since you've tried rebuilding the library with no success you're going to have to start with a new library and import the image files from the Originals folder of the current library. Here's how:
    Creating a new library while preserving the rolls from the original.
    Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    Drag the Originals folder from the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    This will create a new library with the same rolls as the original library. However dates on the rolls may be different but can be edited as you would the roll title.
    Once this is completed you can delete the Originals folder from the desktop and the iPhoto Llibrary folder. If desired, you can keep the older library folder to try other fixes on it.
    In the future I recommend you make a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto file after each import and after doing a lot of editing and organizing in the library. Then if you experience a similar crash all you need to do is replace the damaged database file with the backup copy and you'll be back to the same place in the library as when you make the backup. See the tip at the end of my signature.
    If you have a recent backup copy of the library post back and we can go from there.
    Do you Twango?

    Hi Susan. Try a reset: Push and hold the Sleep/On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. Release buttons.
