How can I get to movies and photos from a dead iPhoto application?

I have pictures backed up..  but the movies that are in Iphoto, have not been backed up (I thought they were).   The data is there and seems to be NON-corrupted, I have Iphoto library manager and it's able to get to the photos. 
Launching iphoto drops me into a dead slide show showing no photos or data anywhere..  and no way to get around this dead end on launch.
I've tried re-installing Iphoto application, but I'm sure there must be some library catalog file that's corrupted.  Is this possible?  Perhas there is a way to replace or delete the catalog file?  If there is such a thing.
Any suggustestions would really be appreciated by my autistic son Gavin!
Thanks very much
Todd

Have you tried Rebuilding with Library Manager (File -> Rebuild)?

    Keep in mind that the recovered photos will not be in their full resolution, but instead will be the scaled down versions that were optimized in size and resolution to fit your iPod's smaller LCD screen.

    Hi you can take to Apple Store they may Replace with a Refurbished, one but you will need to pay part of cost. Make an Appointment, if you do get Another iphone when you set it up Just use the same Apple, id & password then you will get all your Apps & Data back. Cheers Brian

  • I'm new to Mac. I have an iPhone and a Mac Mini.  My original iTunes was on a Windows computer that crashed.  So, all of my iTunes Music and Movies are gone.  How do I get the movies and music from my iPhone to the new Mac Mini?

    If you still have the crashed Win computer, you may be able to recover your music and movies from the hard drive. If you have a friend with a hard drive USB connection kit and a PC, they should be able to help.  Otherwise, check locally for computer services that might do that for you (I think Best Buy Geek Squad may be able to help). If the drive itself is in good shape, it shouldn't be too expensive. 

  • After restoring how can I get my notes and photos back?

    I plugged my iPad then it shut down and when I plugged it again and it showed that I need to restore it..
    Now how do I get my notes and photos back...

    You'll have to resync using your own computer. It should restore from your backup.

  • I found an old iPod classic of mine.  It's not synced to my new MacBook Pro.  How can I get the music and photos off of it and on to my new computer?  When I plug it in to my new computer it wants to erase what is on it and transfer from my new computer.

    I found an old iPod classic of mine that is synced to a computer that is long gone.  I want to get the music and photos from this old iPod onto my new computer.  Every time I hook the iPod up to my new computer it wants to delete what is on the iPod and replace with the contents of the iTunes that is currently on the new computer.  I don't want to do that.  I want to keep what is on the old iPod and transfer it to iTunes.  Any help?  Thanks!

  • Hello...i have lost my all my data because i restored my phone, how can i get all contacts and photos back?

    Hello, I have lost all my data from iphone as i restored it, how can i get my old contacts and photos back ?

    Connect to the computer the last backup is on, right click on its name in iTunes, and choose "Restore from backup". If the latest backup is in iCloud make sure you have a WiFi connection, then go to Settings/General/Reset and tap Erase all content and settings. After erasing you will be prompted to restore the iCloud backup.

    The 2 videos place in a folder called Video or Videos
    Pictures extract to the folder Pictures
    The demo video extract and you should have a folder named demovideo and 1 video inside - Place the folder on the root of your phone and to activate it dial *#*#73556673#*#* Bear in mind that in doing so it will disable and or reset any customizations you have made - To deactivate dial the same code

  • How can I get the username and password from Oracle Forms to PJC !

    Dear Sir,
    I have username,password and push button fields in oracle forms. When user clicks the push button, I need to get username and password field contents to my Pluggable Java Program to authenticate the user trying to login. How can I get those text field contents to my java program..? Looking forward from you soon sir.
    Thanks in Advance,
    S Ramkumar

    I tried that trigger but nothing reflects. I write that method in WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED trigger.
    In the form module I written,
    Set_Custom_Property('BL.USERNAME',1,'NAME','');
    Set_Custom_Property('BL.PASSWORD',1,'PASS','');
    Implementation class of the push button I gave my java class file name.
    In Java Code I tried register the form fields like,
    public static final ID userName = ID.registerProperty("NAME");
    public static final ID passWord = ID.registerProperty("PASS");
    In Java Code I tried get the contents from registered properties,
    public boolean setProperty(ID property, Object value) {
    if(property == userName) {
    System.out.println("Just I wish to see the name entered" + value.toString());
    if(property == passWord) {
    System.out.println("Just I wish to see the pass entered" + value.toString());
    But even System.out.println() is working.
    What's wrong with this code sir ???
    Can you tell me How to register and get those field values in Java ?

  • I took a video by accident. How do I get just a jpeg photo from it in iphoto'11?

    I took a video with my iphone when intending to take just a photo. How do I get a jpeg photo from it in iphoto'11?

    When you double click the movie in iPhoto, you can select to open it in QuickTime Player. PLay the movie and advance it to the frame you want. Then either simply take a screenshot (best in full screen view) or select to export your movie fro the web (from the File menu in Quicktime Player). This will create a jpeg as poster frame. Import this to iPhoto.
    iPhoto has no built-in option to extract a jpeg from the movie.

  • How can i get my movies and episodes back on my account?

    all my stuff has been lost on itune there is no way to get it back my last computer crashed and i only have this one i need help retriving my old purches.

    You only get one download of movies/tv shows.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comptuer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup ( not good), then itunes purchases can be transferred from an ipod:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • I have an iTunes account with my iPhone 3GS.  Today I upgraded to the iPhone 4.  When I plugged the iPhone 4 in to get my music iTunes created a new device.  How do I get the music and photos from the other device?

    I would like to delete the new device and just sync the iPhone 4 with all the info that was on the 3GS. 

    You can get the photos by importing them from your 3GS to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and then syncing them back to your iPhone 4.  Your music should already be in your iTunes library if you have been syncing the 3GS with your computer so all you would need to do is select to Sync Music on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync your iPhone 4 to transfer it to you new phone.  But there is no way for iTunes to see your iPhone 4 as your iPhone 3GS; it will see it as a different device no matter what you do.

  • How can i get my pictures and music from my ipod to my itunes library after having to get a new computer where none of my file exist

    please help i dont know how to do this and i dont want to loose my pictures or music that is on my ipod and not my computer i had to restore my windows and i lost everything but its still on my ipod touch 8 gb

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    Use this to put everything back.
    The music and pic sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good) then you can transfer itunes purchases:  Without syncing - File>Transfer Purchases
    If the pics are pics taken with ipod, then you can import them as you would from any digital camera.  otherwise you can e-mail them to yourself.
