Help! My pictures are missing after my battery died during an upload!

Help! My mac battery died while uploading pics from my iphone. When I rebooted the computer and opened Iphoto, all of my albums were there with what I assume to be the correct number of photos but in their place was the same photo over and over where the thumbnail should be. If I click on the photo, the correct one shows up. I saw a video on you tube that said to hit alt command while opening Iphoto to rebuild the database, but it says to back up the photos first. 1. I'm scared to do anything at this point. Any suggestions welcome please! This is the past 6 years of my life...marriage, house, baby!!

Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window rebud thumbnails, if still needed repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database

How do i fix my issue: Apple Logo flashes on and off after iphone battery died during IOS update?

I've tried the methods I've seen on youtube and other iphone tech help sites but I am still having the same problem. Today while updating to IOS 7 my iphone 4 battery died and I didnt have a charger, now that I am home an I put in on the charger I notice the apple logo just flashes on and off. I've tried to restores using the DFU mode with the home and power button but that only seem to stop the logo from flashing and even then the iphone still isnt recognised by the pc to restore, Is there any other way i can go about fixing this problem!!!!

You can try the steps recommended in the User Guide. If they don't work bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

Pictures are Missing after Leopard Install

I installed Leopard and received the same blue screen password issue that everybody is discussing here. I called Apple support and was told to do an archive and reload Leopard. Here lies the issue: When I went back in most everything was there under a "Previous Systems" file. However, my pictures were GONE!! All my family memories... gone. The only thing it brought over was my Photobooth pictures. My wife is devastated and mortified. Most of my pictures were backed up, but there were a few very important ones that are gone.
I know there has to be someway to retrieve them or get them back. They must be somewhere on my HD where I can find them. I am begging anyone to help me. I was able to get some off my iPod using a third party SW program, but the quality of the pictures is not very good.

If you intend to make a recovery on the drive, stop using it.
If the files were deleted, you overwrite them with each keystroke.
If they are simply misplaced, which may be the case, you will have to perform a detailed search for them, using the names of the files or at least part of the name.
Once you find one, they will probably be all together in the same folder.
It could simpy be the folder was misnamed.
If you cannot locate them with Finder or SpotLight, then you will have to use the terminal mode to search each and every nook and cranny on your HD.
The command would be something like
find / -name \*.jpg -print
where *.jpg would be the filename with a wildcard. If they were gifs then use *.gif
The \ tells the system to treat the * as a wildcard.
Be prepared for a long search with a lot of things showing up.
You can also use
find / -name \guess -print
where guess is any part of the file name you can recall.
Good searching.

Help- After upgrading to Mountain Lion 10.8.4 all of my default user pictures are missing

Hello,
After ugrading to Mountain LIon 10.8.4 on my 2010 1.4 GHz Macbook air and now all of my default user pictures are missing.
I found a similar situation on the net in which the guy says to do this: "logged in as root and trashed the old user icon images file the copied the folder froma ML factory disk image". I have no idea what any of that means or if is for real as an answer or just a way to screw up my computer even more. I need help, and really basic simple instructions like your talking to some one who barely know how to turn on a computer. I would be really grateful to anyone who will help me. Thank you for your time.

I found a simple solution that worked on my Macbook Air running 10.8.4 which was missing all the User pictures when I tried to access them as the computer administrator even through they wer all there in the User Pictures folder in the Library.
I went into the Library Folder and trashed the "User Pictures" Folder.
I then copied the User Pictures folder from my Macbook Pro (also running 10.8.4) that did not have this issue and installed in on the Macbook Air in place of the User Pictures folder I had trashed. Then it all worked fine.

I installed PS CS 6 and now all my iPhoto 11 pictures are missing.

I installed PS CS 6 last night and now all my iPhoto 11 pictures are missing from the library. I had 45,000 plus pictures and some of them were not backed up. I have tried holding the command and alt keys down while starting iPhoto several times but no luck. Does anyone have any idea how I can recover these photos?

Don't see how installing CS 6 could do this.
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.

URGENT help needed:Address data missing after QA Refresh from PRD

All,
Address data for almost all user-ids are missing after QA Refresh from PRD.
In QA, after importing the User-Master although its shows successful. The detailed log shows:
   Data inconsistency in USR21. Start RSADRCK2 (See Note 459763)
   Exit program AFTER_IMP_ADDRESS3 successfully executed
   SAP user has no address SAP*
   Error while deleting ADRVP for SAP*
   SAP user has no address SAPCPIC...
   ERROR: Type "F" user exit with SYS_ERROR:     SUSR_CLIENTCOPY_USERBUF_RESET
We also do a Table export - import wherein the tables
USR03
USR07
USR09
USR20
USR21
USR30
are included.
The no. of entries exported and imported are same.
Also FYI in the User-master Transport i can see the following Tables included in the object list
USR01
USR02
USR04
USR05
USR06
USR08
USR14
USR21S
USR22
USRACL
USREXTID
USREXTIDH
Has anyone seen this before?
Any body has any ideas?

Hello Bidwan,
I think it is an issue with company address. Just check if company addresses are existing the source client ?After client copy company addreses of target client will only exist in source client. Then if you do impot of the transport containing USR* tables it will try to assign old company addresses to the users but probably they are not exisitng in target client any more.
If this is the case then you need to create those company addresses again using SUCOMP and then once again import the transport for user master.
Regards.
Ruchit.

Text messages and phone calls from March 2012 to date are missing after activating iphone5

text messages and phone calls from March 2012 to date are missing after activating iphone5. I backed up my 4 before activating my 5. Can i retrieve them somehow?

i would not want to bet on nokia ever releasing a patch or update in the software to allow this function on this particular phone.
if you look at nokia phones over the years, they have added functionality like this across a wide range all at once, take for example timed profiles on symbian phones. these have only just been phased in.
i do not think it is a development cop out, more along the lines that nokia is a huge company and as such would have a huge effor in market research. if they didnt pick this out through their market researc, why spend the money adding it?
the comment on annoyance is entirely personal to me, as it is important to you - you may want to consider moving to a symbian (series 60) based handset as these give you a lot of expansion for this sort of need.

I am using Adobe Photshop Elements 11, I just transferred all of my data from an old computer to a new computer, all my pictures and documents transferred fine but, my albums are missing and the date and time that is usually under the picture are missing.

Hi,
Which operating system are you running on?
The date & Time can be displayed by going to the View menu and checking Details - also File Names if you want them displayed.
The Album information is saved within the catalog so it sounds as though you didn't do a catalog backup on the old computer and a catalog restore on the new computer which is the recommended way of transferring elements data. Did you just copy the photos over?

-Connect your iPhone with your Computer
-Open iTunes
-If a notification for restoring from an older backup appers, do that
-If not, do right-click your iPhone (you fond your iPhone on the left side of the iTunes window) and choose "Restore from an older Backup " (I'm not sure if t's exactly named like this, because my iTunes is in German)
Let me know if it works

All music in my library are missing after sync.

All music in my library are missing after synch, but it seems that its still in the phone cause I checked memory usage and it doesn't add up. And when I connect it to itunes and checked the memory usage bar in the bottom, it seems that my music was categorized in "Others". I'm using iPhone 5s with the latest OS.

This has just happened to me, I've had songs in Music on my phone for years and suddenly, and randomly, they're greyed out and unplayable. This applies to some playlists and not others, to songs I've played on my phone even in the last week.
Damned infuriating and I can't yet find a resolution - Apple, what have you done this time!
