How can I restore a whole folder which (containing multiple albums) has disappeared - has disappeared from my iPhoto Library (using Aperture 3.5.1)?

Last time I saw the folder, it  had somehow moved inside another large folder, so I remember trying to move it back to its correct place.  Now it has vanished completely - along with all the albums and as far as I can see the events and photos to boot. Searching for some of the album titles brings up none of them.  And they're not in the trash.However, if I open the Library in iPhoto, the search button does find some of the missing photos - where Apertues found none. Why should that be?  I'm trying to restore the iPhotoLibrary from an arbitrary date a month ago in my CrashPlan database - this will take over two days. I used Time Machine to restore the Library as it was one month ago, but no dice. Does anybody have any ideas??
Many thanks in advance!

I assume, you already checked, if the search filters in the Browser and Viewer are cleared?
Have you tried to repair or to rebuild the library?
To use the Aperture Library First Aid tools:
Press and hold the Option and Command keys as you start Aperture. The Aperture Library First Aid dialog will appear and offer the following three troubleshooting options:
Repair Permissions. Some issues in Aperture may be caused by incorrect permissions for items in the library. To correct the permissions for your library, select the option to Repair Permissions then click the Repair button. You must authenticate with a user name and password for a user account with administrative access to perform this operation.
Repair Database. Sometimes internal structures within the library may become damaged and cause unexpected behavior; you can use Repair Database to try to correct the issue. Select the option to Repair Database then click the Repair button.
Rebuild Database. For more severe issues that can't be corrected with Repair Permissions or Repair Database, you can try Rebuild Database. It is strongly recommended that you have a complete backup of your Aperture library before performing this operation, either in the form of a recently updated vault, or a Time Machine backup. Select the option to Rebuild Database then click the Rebuild button in the Aperture Library First Aid dialog.

  • Save/Open dialog crashes on opening a folder which contains multiple app. alias

    Hi:
    This is my first post in Apple forum, I've been searching some pages here, obviously I'm not the only one having this (or similar) problem but all existing threads are suggesting "Safe Mode" or "Disk Util" these useless things and never worked for me.
    I believe this is a bug from os x / Finder, not sure if this has been filed or not against Apple bug db.
    The problem:
    Save/Open dialog hangs up when loading / opening an existing folder which contains multiple application alias
    How to reproduce:
    1) Use any browser (I use Firefox and Chrome) to open a page and  print the page / or download something, or print something as PDF
    2) When Save dialog ( some people call it file picker or location selector, whatever) pops up, select a folder which contains multiple application alias
    3) Dialog hangs up, and the application icon on those  alias will not be loaded successfully. Need to Force Quit the browser.
    4) Issue cannot be reproduced always, but frequently enough if you have many application alias and files / subfolders in the target folder
    5) By removing all the application alias, can workaround the issue.
    6) The icons of application on those alias are loaded slowly in a successful loading (seems there are some performance issues)
    7) This issue has not been observed before upgrading to Mavericks
    Env:
    27 inch iMac Late 2012, 2.9GHz i5, 8G DDR3, NVIDIA GTX660M 512M, OS X 10.9.1
    Please anybody (not sure if Apple monitors this community) who knows details in regards to this, share some info. (or maybe there already is a fix ? ) .
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Lyle.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • How can i restore my purchase folder?

    After initializing my new iPhone 4S and restoring my music and apps, I notice that my purchase fold is missing.  How can I restore the folder and music?

    You should probably contact the "official" Apple customer support.  This is a user discussion forum.  You can use the "Contact Us" link at the bottom right corner of this web page.

  • How can I download the whole folder at once?

    hello everyone,
    is there a way to download the whole folder from the cloud? I have many small files there and some subfolders and want to send it to my client so he can download it.

    Currently you cannot download a folder.
    One option is to Collaborate with the client from the Files page at https://creative.adobe.com/files and then the client can use the file syncing in the Creative Cloud desktop application to sync the folder down to their computer.
    Another is to provide a zip file of the folder. This can be shared with the Send Link feature.

    PS: I have tried a full unistall/reinstall.
    Strangely enough when I reinstalled from scratch and launched iTunes, there were songs in my library, including those which I thought I had deleted earlier today. I am really confused.
    I just want a simple, automated iTunes solution.
    I hate Windows.
    FWIW if it matters, I'm using an HP Mini 110 (good bang for the buck and great for travel).
    Thank you.

  • How can I find the yahoo toolbar which contains "identity safe" which contains all of my passwords?

    I can't find the yahoo toolbar which included identity safe, where all my automatic passwords were located.

    While Finder is active, press Command-F (Find in the File menu).
    In that window you can set search criteria. In the second sub-toolbar should be a couple of buttons representing pulldown menus; by default, the first usually shows "kind". Click that one.
    In the menu that opens, if "Size" or "File Size" is not available, select "Other". Then in the new window select "Size" or "File Size" and okay the window. From then on that choice will be available in the first pulldown menu.
    You can use that to search your drive.
    Note - by clicking the "+" button at the far right of the strip containing the pulldown menus, you can add additional search criteria, thus restricting a search to exactly what you want.

  • My computer with my original library has crashed, how can i keep all the songs on my iphone, but still add new songs from my new library?

    My computer has died and will not be working ever again. Problem is, i have all of my songs on that computer in my itunes library as well as on my phone. Now i want to add some songs to my phone from some new cds and it tells me i will loose all my songs on my phone right now when i perform the sync. How can i keep all of the songs on my iphone because now i do not have copies of these songs anymore except on my iphone?????? From what i have read, itunes is a joke because it only goes one way apparently. Not happy with itunes right now, more then a bit of a joke

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.  Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup, big mistake, then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to the computer:  File>Transfer Purchases
    You may be able to buy a 3rd party program to get any other music off of the iphone ( not supported by Apple).
    When you sync the iphone, it will erase the current content and replace with content form the new computer.
    "Not happy with itunes right now, more then a bit of a joke"
    Not itunes fault that you did not do the very basics and maintain a backup copy.

  • How can I create a new folder in the photo album?

    I have photos in "camera roll" on my iPhone4 that were taken on my iPhone3 and I would like to start a new album so I can separate photos taken with my iPhone4.

    I have the same problem. I have no idea where my photos are syncing to when I sync with iTunes. I know they're syncing because when I went from the month-old 3GS to the new 4 back in the beginning of July, all the pics from my 3GS were there. When I click on the Photo tab in iTunes, it's not like the app tab that shows me all the apps. Only thing Photo tab does is ask if I want to sync all my photos from my computer. NO! I have every picture I have ever taken with every digital camera I have ever owned, thousands of pictures dating back to 2007. I don't want to deal with all those old pics, I just want to organize the pictures that I have taken on my iPhone! Right now, I have 164 pictures in the camera roll and I can never find what I'm looking for. This shouldn't be this complicated!

  • How do i recover photos from my iPhoto library using my time capsule?

    I have a shared time capsule between my iMac and Macbook pro.  Now that my Macbook pro's hardrive was replaced I lost all my pictures at iphoto.  I am trying to locate them from my Time capsule. Help.

    Don't confuse "Time Capsule", an Apple Wi-Fi base station, with "Time Machine", backup software included with OS X since version 10.5.
    What you want to do is to recover files from Time Machine backups on your Time Capsule.  Start by mounting the mounting the disk drive in the Time Capsule, probably still called "Data".  Look in the "Data" volume for a "sparsebundle" named after the MacBook Pro.  Mount that.  Then click-and-hold on the Time Machine icon in the Dock and select "Browse Other Time Machine Disks".  Select the old backup, then navigate to the iPhoto backup.

  • How do I restores my iTunes folder?

    I had been using a 2" USB external drive to store all my iTunes music folder, which I over via the "Edit/Perference/Advanced/General to provide the folder, e.g. F:\iTunes.
    It had been working fine for a whole year until my XP crashed. Restored C drive from backup, and reset the iTunes folder, only see 55 songs listed under the normal iTunes folder. Changes to the iTunes folder location did not take effect.
    How do I refresh the folder changes? Shutdown and restart iTunes after folder change did not help.
    Thanks for any info
    Jeff

    1. close itunes
    2. drag the whole folder, which should contents both the music and some files like iTunes Library.itdb iTunes Library.xml etc, over to the external driven...
    3. make sure you either moved it, or you copied it and deleted the folder in the original location (if you want to keep itunes music in original location until you have confirmed everything is right before deleting, jump to step 5)
    4. start itunes and it will ask for to create a library or choose a library, click on choose library and use pop up finder to select the new location
    5. if you do not want to remove your original music library until you have confirmed everything is working first, simply start iTunes by pressing ALT (keyboard button) + click on iTunes icon... you will see the same pop up as step 4 asking you to either create a new library or choose an existing library, in which point you can browse to the external drive and select...
    hints: you can always navigate between multiple libraries this way.

  • In Module, the Basic panel (white balance, color saturation and tonal scale) disappeared.  How can I restore these tools?

    In Develop Module, the Basic Panel (white balance, color saturation and tonal scale) disappeared.  How can I restore these tools?

    When you say the Basic panel has disappeared, do you mean the whole right side panel or individual tools such as the White Balance tool is gone? If it is the whole right side panel that is missing, you may have hidden it. Using the Tab key, you can cycle between hiding and showing the side panels. You can also move your mouse over to the far right side of your screen to get the panel restored but it will disappear when you move your mouse off the panel. There is also a small triangle on the left edge of the right panel that you can right click on in order to determine the show/hide behavior (I personally use the manual mode).
    Regarding the individual windows contained in the left/right panels, they can be opened and closed by clicking of the triangle that is displayed next to name of the tool in its header bar. While you can elect what modules will be shown on the LR Top panel, I am not aware of any mechanism to completely hide individual tools in the left/right panels. If all else failes, you can hit the Shift/Tab key combo a few times to restore all of your windows the the default behavior.
