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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 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, 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.

  • Syntax error in DW...cannot figure out what's wrong

    Hi,
    I seem to have a problem adding a new slideshow to the JQuery slider.  I've taken snapshots of the code.  First photo shows the #slideshow code from 1 - 7.  This is the way it is when I took over the job and they work.  also there is no syntax errors in DW when I open this page up:
    I also wanted to show you the bottom portion of this script so you can see the code before I edited it.  Here it is:
    Next, I've now added #slideshow8 and so far so good - no errors:
    Here is where I add the bottom portion of the code for slideshow 8 and it seems to mimic all of the ones above (7, 6, etc.).  However, DW says I have an error on line 139.  Here is what I added:
    Keep in mind that as I type all goes well, then as I type some more, that error comes on (the line 139 error).  also I did not add any code down in that section:
    Also after I added the code, all of the slideshows stop working (1 through 8).  So I'm really confused and hoping someone can help what the problem is.  Keep in mind I just took over this job so all of this code on the page that you see was done by the person before me.  Not saying I'm a great coder myself but just wanted to point this out.  If you'd like to see the live page without my code, you can go to the link below.

  • Once I downloaded the new IOS 5.0 I've lost all of my photos that were stored on my PC, and I no longer have access to them on the IPOD.  Cannot figure out what has happened.  Please help.

    Once I downloaded the new IOS 5.0 I've lost all of my photos that were stored on my PC, and I no longer have access to them on the IPOD.  Cannot figure out what has happened.  Please help.

    Thanks lllaass, but I am not computer literate and do not understand exactly what it is I am supposed to do.  All of my photos were stored on Microsoft Windows Live Photo Gallery.  When I now access the gallery the only thing that is there are the folders with the title of the folders.  The pictures that were in those folders are now gone. I can no longer access them on my IPOD either.  My photo library on my IPOD is now empty. 
    Thanks again for your help.

  • I cannot figure out what the "other" is that is taking up space on my iPOD.

    Please help! I am in the process of burning my songs to my iPOD and I noticed when I synced it up that I had alot of orange, "other" stuff taking up space. I have a few television shows and am building up my music files. I cannot figure out what the "other" is. When I clicked the tab for photos, it had 23 photos that it pulled from My Pictures. However, I played around with the settings and it said under "photos," (0). However, it still has space that it is taking up.
    I have alot of music to download and I don't want to have 5.38 bytes of used up space for which I don't know what it is.
    Thanks!

    Other can be album artwork, contacts, notes etc. If you feel that the Other is being incorrectly reported you could try restoring your iPod. Just be aware that restoring will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings, so if you have songs on your iPod that aren't on iTunes you will lose them if you have no back up. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists choose no and it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

  • I need help figuring out what is wrong with my Macbook Pro

    I have a mid 2012 Macbook Pro with OS X Mavericks on it and for the past few weeks it has running VERY SLOW! I have no idea what is wrong with it, i have read other discussion forums trying to figure it out on my own. So far i have had no luck in fixing the slowness. When i open applications the icon will bounce in dock forever before opening and then my computer will freeze with the little rainbow wheel circling and circling for a few minutes... and if i try to browse websites it take forever for them to load or youtube will just stop working for me. Everything i do, no matter what i click, the rainbow wheel will pop up! The only thing i can think of messing it up was a friend of mine plugging in a flash drive a few weeks ago to take some videos and imovie to put on his Macbook Pro, he has said his laptop has been running fine though... so idk if that was the problem. Anyways, could someone please help me try something? Thank you!!

  • I cant figure out what is wrong i keep getting this an OIEception that says "{"The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."}

    I am trying to move a file from a folder to another folder.
    here is my code:
    //storage of the all files
    string[] folderContentNames = Directory.GetFiles(@"C:\Users\Jonah\Desktop\Test Pictures");
    private void historyPictureBox_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    destinationFile = @"C:\Users\Jonah\Desktop\Test Test";
    File.Move(folderContentNames[1], destinationFile);
    updateListBoxFileName();
    updateImageBox();
    each time I hit the bolded underlined part I get that error message.
    if you need anything else just ask.
    Thanks in advance,
    Thor Orb

    Hi Thor,
    If you want to move a file from a folder to another folder, I think you could get the sourcePath and TargetPath. The code below shows a simple demo:
    string[] folders = Directory.GetFiles(@"D:\Test\VSC#\01\WindowsFormsApp\WindowsFormsApp\Test");
    string desFile =Path.Combine( @"D:\Test\VSC#\01\WindowsFormsApp\WindowsFormsApp\Test - Copy\"+Path.GetFileName(folders[1]));
    File.Move(folders[1], desFile);
    In addition, the link below might be useful to you:
    # How to: Copy, Delete, and Move Files and Folders (C# Programming Guide)
    >> The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process
    The message seemed that the file was opened in other process. Did you operate the file with other code?
    I think you could check if the files and the folders were opened, and review your codes if they were used in other places.
    If you have any further questions, please feel free to post in this forum.
    Best Regards,
    Edward

    Ya, Thanks I figured about the path and destation. yes I am using the file in another area, the file is an image jpg and I am displaying it in a picture box. Now I have been doing a little research I see a command called Dispose() and this is suppose to
    release the handle on the image, but I can seem to figure out have to use it correctly.

    when I first start the program the first picture displays, but when I trigger historyPictureBox_Click(), it does that error again. Another things is that I already looked at that link and it didn't help.
    I just super confused, I would like your help on this.

  • Can't figure out what is wrong with recovery DVDs

    Last year, right after turning my laptop ON, I've created 4 DVDs as such: http://i56.tinypic.com/6i79rn.jpg
    Recovery DVD Disk 1
    Recovery DVD Disk 2
    Recovery DVD Disk 3
    Windows Recovery Environment 64-bit
    My Laptop is Qosmio F60-14R, with Windows 7 Home Premium.
    Now all I want to do is format my laptop and re-install windows 7 Home premium using those 4 DVDs. However I can't figure out why I cannot re-install or get the laptop back to the factory state.
    This have wasted 8 hours straight of my time and frustrated me by great deal. Can you kindly tell me what I have to do? I am lost!

    Here is what I have done so far:
    I inserted 'Windows Recovery Environment (64-bit)' DVD and booted the laptop from it.
    First thing that loads up is a window with two options:
    - Toshiba Recovery Wizard
    - System Recovery Options
    Taking Toshiba Recovery Wizard as choice, clicking Next.
    It asks me: "Please set 1st Recovery Media and press Next to Continue.
    So, I insert Recovery DVD 1 and then click Next. However it ejects the disc drive (seems Recovery DVD 1 is not the correct Disk!).
    So I repeat the same process with Recovery DVD 2 and Recovery DVD 3 and again the Disk Drive ejects the Disks.... As a desperation attempt I even put the Windows Recovery Environment Disk inside but that as well get ejected.
    Okay, so the Toshiba Recovery Wizard is not the right choice 'it seems'.
    So, I restart the laptop and inserted 'Windows Recovery Environment (64-bit)' DVD and booted the laptop from it.
    First thing that loads up is a window with two options: (First choice failed, now trying second choice)
    - --Toshiba Recovery Wizard--
    - System Recovery Options
    So, choosing System Recovery Options this time and clicking Next. I Choose US as Keyboard, then click Next. A small window appears which gives me two further options:
    - Use Recovery tools that can help fix problems starting Windows. Select an Operating System to repair.
    - Restore your computer using a system image that you created earlier.
    So, I already tried the first choice and it takes me to another window with several recovery tools. One of the tools is System Image Recovery but when I click it, it gives a Warning messagebox that says:
    Windows cannot find a system image on this computer. etc.
    But when I insert every disk, still the warning messagebox shows up as if all the four recovery DVDs are irrelevant.
    So, it seems the first choice doesn't lead me anywhere. So, remains the second choice:
    - Restore your computer using a system image that you created earlier.
    Turns out it is exactly the same 'System Image Recovery' from first option mentioned few lines earlier. So, there you have it, checkmate.
    Please guide.

  • I can't figure out what's wrong with this code

    First i want this program to allow me to enter a number with the EasyReader class and depending on the number entered it will show that specific line of this peom:
    One two buckle your shoe
    Three four shut the door
    Five six pick up sticks
    Seven eight lay them straight
    Nine ten this is the end.
    The error message i got was an illegal start of expression. I can't figure out why it is giving me this error because i have if (n = 1) || (n = 2) statements. My code is:
    public class PoemSeventeen
    public static void main(String[] args)
    EasyReader console = new EasyReader();
    System.out.println("Enter a number for the poem (0 to quit): ");
    int n = console.readInt();
    if (n = 1) || (n = 2)
    System.out.println("One, two, buckle your shoe");
    else if (n = 3) || (n = 4)
    System.out.println("Three, four, shut the door");
    else if (n = 5) || (n = 6)
    System.out.println("Five, six, pick up sticks");
    else if (n = 7) || (n = 8)
    System.out.println("Seven, eight, lay them straight");
    else if (n = 9) || (n = 10)
    System.out.println("Nine, ten, this is the end");
    else if (n = 0)
    System.out.println("You may exit now");
    else
    System.out.println("Put in a number between 0 and 10");
    I messed around with a few other thing because i had some weird errors before but now i have narrowed it down to just this 1 error.

  • Master page size conflict? Can't figure out what's wrong...

    Hi community,
    I posted this ticket earlier, but I think I should post it in English, for a larger audience...
    So here's the story :
    I got a really odd issue while moving (or adding) pages...
    Here's a very basic layout :
    Now, lets place page 2 after page 3. Here's the result :
    As you can see, pages don't seem to relate properly to master pages.
    I can't figure out why...
    If I apply masters onto my pages, InDesign says there's a size conflict.
    Assuming I would apply again my master, ID will replace elements at the right place for now, but doesn't solve the problem at all.
    Any idea ??
    Here's a download link for this document :

    Thanks a lot for your help!

    Hi Willy.
    I didn't use the page tool (I never do), but it's a collaborative project, so I can't be sure nobody did.
    As you might have guessed, the attached Indd file is not the real file: I did remove all styles, variants, blocks,... everything from the original project to reduce it to a very basic template...
    If I create a document from scratch, obviously there is no problem. If I don't find the solution, I will recreate the document from scratch, but you'll understand I'd like to avoid spending my time that way...
    So...
    I tried changing the orientation from document setup and crtl-z... didn't do the trick!
    Now, here are more information for a better understanding:
    The original project was landscape orientated (A4).
    I had to adapt it to a portrait orientation version (still A4). Please note I didn't use the page tool. Obviously, something got wrong there and did create the problem...
    Now, if I right-click my page panel and set its view "by variant", the name of the (unique) variant is the same than the original project, even though it has a different orientation.
    The strange thing is that the name is a personalized one (it should have been "A4 H"). Why is that? I dunno... Why (anf who did?) change the name of the "variant" is a mystery... But I guess this could be a clue...
    Well... still stuck on this puzzler...
    Thanks all for your help anyway...

  • When I boot up my Mac, Messages opens automatically. I quit the app, but it just re-opens itself. It won't stay off!!! I can't figure out what's wrong with it!

    For the past few months, my Mac has been acting weird. EVERY time I boot up the computer, Messages opens automaticallly (I am runing OS X 10.8.x). I quit the app, but it just re-opens a few seconds later! It just won't stay off! I've looked it up online and nothing helps. I have no idea what to do!!!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • I feel like my phone got hacked, but it isn't jailbroken. Can someone please help me figure out what is wrong ?

    Alright, so like 2 hours ago i was playing with my sudoku app, and the password screen for iCloud kept popping up, so I put i my password not really thinking anything of it but it came up again, and I put the password in maybe twice more before I just hit cancel; still came up. So I closed the app completely and then went back into it and it didn't come anymore so that was that. But then I was trying to text my boyfriend who also has an iPhone and it wouldn't send iMessages, and  when I was texting him with regular texts he said it there were no letters. So I went into settings to turn off iMessage and turn it back on again and when it asked for my apple password to turn it on again, it kept saying that I wasn't putting in the right password even though I know that I was. Went to change my password through email, and lo and behold my mail app says 'Cannot Get Mail Failure to connect to server.' Alright, try to sign into my account on the internet (still on my phone), says I'm putting in the wrong password, I know that I wasn't. So reset that password as well, and I noticed a bunch of emails from Urban Outfitters about my 'forgotten password' ... I haven't tried logging into that recently and even still I know that password. But as for the messages between my boyfriend and I, they went back to iMessage after 'he' restarted his phone (?) weird but alright. I've tried restarting my phone, turning wifi off and on, nothing is working. Does anyone know what could be going on ?

    The thread running through your explanation has to do with connectivity to your server. (iCloud out of the blue asking for password, unable to message your boyfriend, unable to access e-mail). You said that you boyfriend restart his device and then the two of you were able to then imessage. My best advice for you would be to go to settings to reset to reset network settings. Once this has been done you then will need to enter the name and password of your wifi. ONce this is done you then can attempt to check to see that all passwords are enter correctly.
    Good luck.

  • Please help me figure out what's wrong with my girls fairly new Toshiba lap top.

    OK as of late my girl got a nice new laptop. It started off really fast and she was really happy with it. But in the past three weeks or so it's been acting up. It's not connecting to the Wi-Fi properly, and won't read and other available confections. If we reset and restart it one of two times that usually does the trick but the last time took 3 restarts before connecting to the right the way it was made to. To top it all off though. We were just laying down and she had heard the cooling fan going in it. This is odd because I had used it last and i always meme site to shut it down properly. But to my dismay when she picked it up and showed me I could clearly tell it was the cooling fan and that the lights on the side indicated that it was still on. What would cause these things to happen like this and more importantly, what can I do to not only fix the issues, but to stop this from becoming potentialy a bigger and worse problem? Please, anyone with any knowledge on this matter. Please help me out to prevent this from becoming a bigger more expensive issue. Thank you everyone for your time and you only would be greatly appreciated. The model number for this lasso to is XXXXXXXXX. Again thank you
