How can I retrieve "lost" photos?

I have photos in my library dating back to 2007, but somehow I can no longer view them full size. I can see how many are in each album, and can also scroll through the tiny thumbnails at the top of the Event page. But the Event/Photo boxes themselves are just black/empty, and when I click to open one, I get only an exclamation point. Please tell me there is a way to retrieve them, because they have been deleted from my camera memory card!
Thanks,

    How can I retrieve lost photos on my iPad?

    How were they lost? You have provided no background material for someone to work with. If you have deleted the photos and are on the latest iOS, there is a deleted photos album in Photos. If you do not have them in the deleted photos album, you could restore your device from a backup that contains the photos. If these were not photos from the Camera Roll and from syncing, they had to be removed by a sync, and could be synced back as long as they still exist on the computer. There are a few other choices, but I'll wait and see what you may have been doing.

    How do I retrieve lost photos after iOS 5 upgrade? I have never sync'd it to iTunes or iPhone.

    All apps on the iPad should be in the iTunes library with iTunes on the computer the iPad is synced with.

    Install the excellent 'Search Everything' utility and enter 'extreme' as a search term. Note that when you first run 'Everything' it takes time to index your drive(s). After that though it is a nearly instantaneous start.

    how can i retrieve my photos from i cloud ?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Photo stream is not available at iCloud.com. In order to see the photos taken on your new iPad, you need to use another iOS device, mac or PC which is logged into your iCloud account.

    how can i retrieve my photos from icloud

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photos in photo stream...
    You can log into your iCloud account on another computer or device and enable photo stream to see your photos. You should do this as soon as possible because photo stream in the cloud only keeps photos for 30 days and each day you delay, you will lose another days photos.
    Photos in the camera roll...
    If you kept a back up of your device you can use it to restore to a replacement device, this will restore all of the photos in your camera roll and isn't time limited.

    If they were photos taken with your iPhone and you have Photo Stream activated through iCloud they are in the cloud. If not - they are in the wind.

    Restore your iPhone from the last backup you made before you deleted the photos from the iPhone. An iCloud backup (or an iTunes backup) saves the content of the camera roll.

    How can I retrieve lost pictures on my iPad?

    Did you delete the pics, or you just can't find them on your iPad?
    If you deleted them, they are gone as there is no Trash Can or Recycke Bin. If you have a backup, retrieve the pics from your backup.

  • How can I recover lost photos from a restore on an iPod touch 4g

    Ok so I have an iPod touch 4g that I had not used for about 2 months as I have been travelling. When I tried to use it I realised that I had forgotten my passcode and as I sold the laptop that I used to use to sync my iPod to just before I went travelling I have no back ups of data and I couldn't unlock my iPod. So in the end I decided I had to restore the iPod using my sisters laptop so that I could use it again as I didnt know the passcode. However my problem is that I had lots of photos stored on my iPod that were special to me and my family, is there any way that I can retrieve these photos?
    If anyone can help I would be very grateful
    thanks

    Maybe here:

    But they may not work. I have never heard anybody really using them in this forum.

  • Before upgrading my system from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion I had taken a backup of iPhoto in my external drive. But now when I try to open that package, I'm directed to app store to buy new iPhoto. How can I retrieve my photos without buying iPhoto?

    Before upgrading my system from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion I had taken a backup of iPhoto library in my external drive. But now when I try to open that package, I'm directed to app store to buy new iPhoto. Why would apple install iPhoto by default with Snow Leapord and make us import all our photos in it at the first place, and now ask for money if we want to retrieve our photos back on mountain lion? What if they make contacts a paid app with the next OS upgrade, and then bully us to pay money if we want our contacts? This is something very dissappointing on Apple's part. I need answers here.

    I fail to remember if the installer gave me an option to keep my applications.
    The Mountain Lion installer will not delete applications. It will only mark applications, that are not compatible with your current system with a "forbidden" sign in the icon. And you cannot launch them.
    Does your iPhoto icon in the Applications folder look like this?
    Then your iPhoto version is incompatible and cannot run with Mt. Lion. If it is iPhoto '11, with a versionnumber starting with 9.x.x., you can upgrade it by downloading a newer version from the Apple downloads site  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1650.
    But if you have 8.x.x, you need to buy an upgrade.

  • HT201302 I deleted my photos from my i phone thinking they would be on my i pad, they are no where i can't find them anywhere how can i retrieve my photos and videos? anyone help.

    Can I retrieve my deleted photos and videos somehow?  I deleted my photos from my iphone thinking they would be on my ipad.  Now all of my photos and videos are gone some one please help.

    Hello queen cash
    If you have a back up either in iTunes or in iCloud before you deleted the pictures, then you can restore that back up back on your iPhone. Also note you will not have anything that you have currently on your iPhone, as it will remove the current data and put what the back up had on it. If you where using iCloud and using Photo Stream, make sure you are on Wi-Fi and have closed out the Camera app as it will prevent it from uploading the photos.

  • HT4623 ios7 update = recovery mode.  How can I retrieve my photos?

    My iphone 4s is in recovery mode after attempting to install ios 7.  Itunes on my laptop says that the phone needs to be restored.  I would really like to retrieve my photos and videos before it restores.  Is this possible?  Help, please!

    No.  At this point all data on your phone is gone.
    However if you backup, then you can restore to the backup after your phone restores.
    also if you've been importing your pics to your computer, you can sync them back using itunes.
