Hidden photos are really not hidden

With the new photo app, I am able to "hide" photos in the "hidden album" on my Mac and actually hide the album so that the photos are truely hidden.  However, the "hidden album" appears as an album in my iPad and iPhone and when tap the album icon, all the "hidden" photos appear.  In other words, the photos are not hidden, they are there for anyone and everyone to see that taps on the icon.  Anybody know how to fix this?
iPad, iOS 8.3

As far as I know, there is no fix because that is the way it is supposed to work. This is the message that pops up when you hide a photo.

  • Some of my photos are really small in iPhoto.

      I have several photos all taken by the same camera, on the same settings.  But some of the pictures (even from the same day and import) are small and hard to see (and iPhoto says the resolution is 360x270) , while others are ten times that size. It's really annoying because I can't zoom in far enough on the smaller pictures to even see them.  They were both imported from the same camera, with the same settings, at the same time.  It seems to be random as far as which are big and which are small.

    Not unless you still have the library from before you imported a different library into it - do you have that?
    Other than that you probably have multiple versions of each photo - you can delete the two smaller ones leaving only the largest one - this must be done using iPhoto

  • Some of my photos are not displayed in events. The event is there and still named but photos won't display. Suggestions?

    Some of my photos are suddenly not showing inside the event. The event is still present as well as the title and number of photos in the event, but the photo is not showing. I get a black thumbnail with a dashed white box inside it. Any suggestions? It has not happened in all events, only a handful.
    Thanks

    That's an indication that the link/file path to the original file has been broken.  Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    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
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    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 but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Is Apple phone like a normal computer? When you delete something is it really not deleted?

    I Was downloading my photos on to my laptop from my phone when something happened (have no idea what) but my phone just turned off and wouldn't turn back on. Then it said I had to up load the newest download to phone to make it turn back on. Anyway did that but all my contacts and all my photos were gone (they didn't even get to go on my laptop because it shut off 1/2 way through) even my back up I cloud was wiped... Everything!! well I took it to the apple store and they said that it could of been a virus and They re booted it. It still does something like just turn off all of a sudden, go in and out of apps, the sound just stops working!! Anyway I just want to see if I can get all my photos because some of the photos are really special to me and there the only ones I have (that's why I was downloading them to my laptop)... Really hope you can help  
    thanks

    It sounds like your iPhone may have a hardware issue. It's definitely not a virus... there is no known malware capable of infecting an iPhone that has not been jailbroken (ie, hacked to allow apps from outside the App Store).
    If the photos have somehow been erased from your phone, there's no way to recover them from there. Check your photo stream, as deggie has suggested, to see if they're in there. If not, check your computer to see if any of them might have been transferred. You can try manually examining your iPhone backups to see if you can find any of the photos there.
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP,  Windows Vista and Windows 7).

    IF you don't have a backup of your phone either thru icloud or iTunes, where do you expect to restore your pictures from?
    No backup no recovery your pics are gone.

  • Hidden photos in iPhoto not hidden in aperture after import

    After importing all of my iPhotos into aperture, my hidden photos are being shown in aperture.  Is there a way to have my photos hidden in aperture as well?

    Not really.
    Aperture has a seven-level rating scheme: no rating, 1-5, and "rejected".
    I'm pretty sure (I don't know for certain) that photos hidden in iPhoto are assigned a rating of "rejected" when imported into Aperture via the iPhoto importer.
    Rejected Images are not shown in the default Browser view of any container.  The purpose, however, is less to hide Images than it is to remove them from view prior to deleting or relocating them.
    If you have Images you wish to hide from view of someone who has access to your Aperture Library, you should not include them in that Library.

  • How to find out the objects are behind(not hidden) an image?

    Could you please advise me is it possible to find out if the texts (or) objects are behind (not hidden) an image (or) any tinted boxes using scripting via "illustrator cs3".
    Thanks for looking into this.

    Hi Maria,
    if an text or object are behind an another object, i think you need to test position of this text and his layer.
    for exemple:
    layers[0] a rectangular pathItems [100,100,200,200]
    if there is text or other object, it should be on layer[1] or [2] [3] ...[0+x] ( i didn't talk about sublayer, but it's same thing) and it should have same position than rectangular pathItems or included (x>100 && x<200 && y>100 && y<200) and it should have color.
    But in some cases, we will see the text if object is hollow / concave, and script will return "hidden"

  • After migrating data from Time Machine, some of my photos are not showing up in iPhoto. I get a 'dashed rectangle." When I click on it I get ' ! in a Triangle" When I click on that, I actually can see the photo. I want to see my photos

    After migrating data from Time Machine, some of my photos are not showing up in iPhoto LIbrary view. I get a 'dashed rectangle." When I click on it I get ' ! in a Triangle" When I click on that, I actually can see the photo. I want to see all  my photos in 'Library' view, and I can't figure out how these photos seem to be arbitrarily hidden. Help, please.

    Try these for the first attempt:
    First be sure to have a backup copy of the library if you already don't have one.

  • My photos are not streaming from my iPhone 4 to my iPad 7.  The settings are correct and it always has before I had a recent holiday in Cuba. Those photos didn't stream and now new photos since home in Vancouver, Canada are not?

    My photos are not streaming from my iPhone 4 to my iPad 7.  The settings are correct and it always has before I had a recent holiday in Cuba. Those photos didn't stream and now new photos since home in Vancouver, Canada are not? Both are updated to IOS 7.1.2

    Hmm... It looks like they are gone forever now then. I can't think of any other way of getting them back apart from restoring from an iTunes or iCloud backup. Somebody else might be able to help but I think they're gone forever. I don't know why they were wiped from your iPod but it could be something to do with security. In the future I would recommend syncing to iTunes or iCloud to prevent it from happening again. You can always make a reservation at the Genius Bar and see what those guys can do because it seems that they are still there, they are just 'hidden' from view. http://concierge.apple.com/reservation/gb/en/techsupport/

  • Please help! i have broken my iphone, screens is totally smashed and black, photos are not on my icloud on pc for some reason, how do i get them onto my icloud without being able to use the phone? despratly need to acsess these photos on my pc.

    please help, i have smashed my iphone 4 and the screen is black, but phone is still turned on and ringing. i had set it up icloud on my phone and pc before hand but not sure if i did it correctly as no photos are showing up on my pc, is there anyway i can get the photos from my phone to icloud via the pc, not being able to use the phone atall? or would i need to go on setting on the phone? please help i really need the photos of my children

    Don't try to use iCloud for this.  Instead, import them to your computer using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  That will import photos and videos from your camera roll.  You might also want to back it up before repairing or replacing it.  You can do this by connecting it to your computer, opening iTunes, then going to File>Devices>Back Up; and to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  This backup can later be restored to your repaired or replaced phone to recover your data.

  • Elements 10, windows 8, 64 bit, epson artisan 835 printer: prints are really dark even after using enhancements like adjusting lighting. Prints are darker than photoshop edit screen. Prints are acceptable using paint, windows photo viewer, or gallery.

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • Photos are showing up in Places and not in my albums, organization.

    I have the 3GS. I recently upgraded to the new software with the 4.0. It's really cool so far, except the fact that it took some of my photos out of already organized "albums" and put them into "places". I like the fact that they are recognized in the places section/tab. But I also would like to keep them in the album itself so I don't have to go searching for a specific picture that I know I have on the phone but can't find. It's just kinda a pain in the butt cause now my pictures are kinda all over my phone between "albums" and "places". And some of the places location are really off by saying some were taken in a different town when they weren't. Is there any way to reorganize them.

    The photo streams are not available at the icloud.com site. The are only available on mobile devices or Macs with iCloud capatible iPhoto.  If you create shared photo streams they will be online but at their specifie URL and not at icloud.com.

  • Imported pics not showing in 'photo' area since 3 weeks

    When I open iphoto on the left under Library I have Events, Photos, Faces, Places. In 'Photos' it shows all my photos not split into events simply ordered via date. Each time I import new photos, they should appear in this section.
    For the past 3 - 4 weeks new photos are importing fine and creating new events, but these pictures are not showing in the 'photos' section. This is so annoying as I often want easy access to my most recently imported photos ('last import' not always helpful as I may want 3 recent imports worth).
    I have done the reboot thing where you open iphoto with command + option pressed, tick all the boxes and restore your entire library and this had absolutely no impact.
    Can anyone help? I really don't want to call support on the telephone and apple offers no email support- I'm pretty disgusted with their service so far.
    Thanks!

    Telling me I don't have a problem when I have already said I do, isn't that helpful.
    I did have the foresight to check the sort (by date, ascending as always) and change it around however I've just looked at the date of the most recent photo in 'photos' (12th August) and compared this to the date of the photos in 'Last Import' (which was done today) and can see that the photos I've imported for the past 3 weeks all have the date of February 2010 despite being taken (on my iphone) in the past 3 weeks.
    The date setting on my mobile is correct but I must have amended a setting somewhere on there, rather than in iphoto.
    Thank you anyway I suppose.

  • Is it REALLY not possible to add captions to a Photo Book?!

    Hi. I have spent the last several days compiling a book of my travels, and overall I'm happy with it except that I CANNOT figure out how to add captions to any of the photos if I haven't selected the ONE format (w/ "postcards", etc) that already leaves space for them. This is really frustrating, since I don't want every single page of my photo album to have the exact same "cutesy" setup, but as it is a gift for my parents I really would like to at least be able to add a few simple captions noting where the photos are from! Is this possible? If I'm gonna drop $40 on a photo book I want it to be the way I want it!!! Please answer whether it's what I want to hear or not! Thank you in advance!
    p.s. I don't think it's possible to change the format out of Travel for only selected pages...is it???

    Yes as posted
    1 - You need to use your Apple ID - see this article for set up instructions -http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    2 - And this one to reset your Photo Stream - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4890
    Did you go through the steps in suggestion one - if soe then report what exactly happened
    likewise for suggestion 2

    You aren't running iOS if you are using iPhoto, or a Classic operating system.  Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac and find out what you really are running, and then use this link to post in the right place:
