How can I view photos I downloaded 2-3 years ago and which suddenly seem to have disappeared. Only photos taken within the past 12 months are visible.

How can I view photos I downloaded 2-3 years ago and which suddenly seem to have disappeared. Only photos taken within the past 12 months are visible.

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto. Version 8.1.2
- What version of the Operating System. OSX 10.9.4
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
When I open iPhoto, only the most recent photos are shown (last 12 months)
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages? This has been going on for several weeks now. There are no error messages, but yes, I had an update in the system (QuarkXPress 10.1), and the problem has occurred from that day.
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue. I tried to find out where the problem came from, but found no solution.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto? No
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.
Thank you so much for offering help. I am not a proficient user of the system.

    How can I view my pictures that were backed up to iTunes? I no longer have an apple product but need to view the pictures for very important reasons.

    If you mean backed up as part of an iPhone backup in iTunes?  If so, you would have to use 3rd party software to extract them from the backup, such as iPhone Backup Extractor.

    Just download, install, and activate using your serial number.  You are allowed to have the software installed and activated on two machines.  If you do not wish to retain the original installation as a backup you can deactivate it by opening one of the programs and choosing Help -> Deactivate.
    Here is a general link for where you can find download links...
    Download and Installation Help -
    https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install.html
    If you would like a more direct link you will need to name the software and the version.
    If you need your serial number you should be able to find it in your Adobe account online if you registered the software when you first installed it.

    Hello, I have been experiencing similar problems and followed the suggestion and yes, the raw icon comes up as illustrated but there is nothing there to indicate any further action can be taken.  So I am presuming that means it is installed and no further action required?
    Here's my problem:  I have had no problems  getting my pics into my organiser in Elements 12 from either my Nikon D7100 or my Fujifilm X100S - until last week.  Suddenly when they are imported all I see is the timer icons but they don't open to let me view them.  If I click on one it will open and I can then edit it but it will not save an image onto the grid for me to view so it's really frustrating not being able to view all my photos in order to decide what to edit and compare them.
    Here's what action I've taken so far - restarted the computer (endlessly), checked the updates and installed them, checked I have the latest raw plug in (I do) and gone into edit/update thumbnail (doesn't do a thing) - and torn out a fair amount of my hair.  So anyone out there experienced this and can give me some advice? Please?

  • Can I find photos from an entire event that were just loaded but seem to have disappeared?

    Can I find photos from an entire event that seem to have disappeared?

    Larry,
    I have a Mac Book Pro  2.53 GHz  Mid 2009
    Using OS X lion 10.75
    I don't know what version of iphoto....just what was originally installed but I use an external storage drive for my photos and use time machine for back up.
    I loaded the photos Friday night- thought they went into an event, deleted photos from my camera (dumb, I know) then in the morning a grey box with event date shows palm tree and sunset image but no photos.

  • HT203180 how can I sync a movie downloaded on itunes from my personal computer that is authorized for my daughter's ipad, but the purchased movie was done under my apple id

    To start off, I absolutely do not understand iTunes.  I feel that with every new "upgrade" it becomes more difficult to use.
    We have 3 apple ID's for our home to make syncing easier and not have complications with devices.  I have a window's computer with itunes which is "authorized computer" for all 3 apple ID's in family (mom, dad, child).  We purchased a DVD with digital copy, installed and redeemed the code for the digital copy.  However, it would not allow me to "redeem" on my child's apple ID.  therefore, the digital copy went into my apple id.  Now I can not sync the movie to my child's ipad/apple id.  How can this be done?  Please help!  I know it can't be that hard, or is Apple just making iTunes worse and worse.

    The movie is from iTunes.   You would think that a download from iTunes to a MacBook could be watched on an HDTV using Apple TV without any headaches bit this does not appear to be the case. 

  • How can I get iTunes Store to properly function on my windows 7 laptop? I have tried numerous things such as the MDos Promt, checked for firewall, checked for applications allowing iTunes to not be affected by anything. "Can't connect to network"

    How can I get my iTunes to function properly. It stopped working a couple of days ago and I can't figure how to get back and running. I have tried numerous things such as rebooting, checking for the network connection, applying it to open without security measures. Error message "Your connection time out. Check your connection." Even though I can get into the internet, iTunes is still not responding! Technical support help isn't helping!

    Just to close out ... the 'supervisor' was clueless as it turns out.  Apple does NOT have a deal with UPS on handling the Mini, so the person who gave me the info was wrong.  Did he call back?  No ... he just let me go out and find out myself.
    So I called again, and this time eventually ended up with a manager, who told me that the UPS Store thing wouldn't work, but that a box would arrive and then there would be a 'forced replacement'.
    About 10 minutes later he called back and said he discovered that EVERYTHING the supervisor did was wrong ... he didn't actually properly flag for auto-replace, so I would have gone through an identical cycle again!  So he had to restart the whole process, meaning I would get TWO 'coffins', but that I would then get an auto-replacement and would see that indicated in my support email.
    I got the email, saw 'auto-replace'.  Got the box on the 28th and immediately turned it around.  Apple got the box on the 31st, and on the 1st I got emails that my Mini would arrive on the 2nd and it also had the new serial #.
    Yesterday I grab the box from FedEx and go home to check it out.  As expected, it IMMEDIATELY worked on my WiFi without issue ... and has worked perfectly since.
    So ...
    - it was NOT my home network.
    - it WAS a hardware issue with the Mini
    - Apple does NOT do proper testing on the Mini to detect what appears to be a fairly common issue.
    - non-retail customers ARE treated as second-class by support.
    This issue took FOUR WEEKS to resolve, involved FOUR shipments back & forth, and the ONLY reason it got resolved was that *I* did the troubleshooting that Apple either would not or could not do.
    For someone who has been an Apple customer for more than 30 years, this has been a sobering experience ... I quite frankly expected much better from them.

  • How can I retrieve deleted history from 2/3 years ago?

    I want to retrieve deleted internet history from within the last 2/3 years, not just from SafarI but from other browsers I have used. I would be willing to pay for software to find it, but is there anything you can recommend?

    (user)/Library/Application Support/FireFox. I should replace the entire folder; back up the current one first so that you can put it back once you've done.
    Note that this is the Library in your Home Folder, not the one at root level of the hard disk.
    (Apple have hidden the user’s Library folder in Lion and above to casual viewers, in an attempt to stop new Mac users messing their machines up. To access it, in the Finder go to the ‘Go’ menu and hold down the Option (Alt) key; the Library folder will appear as a choice. In Mavericks you can make it permanently visible - open your Home Folder the from the Finder's View menu, choose show View Options and check Show User Library.)

  • HT201077 My Iphone 4s was replaced by the Apple store today. I previously backed everything up to Icloud. I'm downloading everything from Icloud onto the new phone. The pictures seem to have stalled on number 215 for the past hour or so.

    I had my I phone 4s replaced today at the Apple store. I previously backed it up on ICloud. I'm downloading from ICloud to the new phone. The pictures have been stuck on number  215 for an hour now. I've turned the phone off and on several times, but it won't progress in downloading the pictures. This happened the last time the phone was replaced and there was something I could do to get things moving, but I don't remember what?

    Then you'll have to decide when you think it's hung and unlikely to restart.  At that point, you'll probably have to reset it (by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release) and try restoring the backup again.
    The only "solution" I've seen posted on photos that fail to restore from a backup that seems to have worked for others, is the on posted by ezjules here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589.  If you restore the backup again, you could give it a try and see if it works for you.

  • HT4623 Hi how can I get pages to download from my mac to my iPad? Do I have to buy it again?

    Thanks

    On the mac, you can save a Pages document to icloud and on the ipad (yes, you have to buy the ipad version of Pages) you can access the document.
    If instead you mean how to download the Pages program from a mac to an ipad, then you can't.  Different operating systems need different programs.  Just like you can't download Word in Windows to a Mac (unless you use a Windows simulator on the Mac).

  • How can i prevent deleted application download on my iTune Store?

    Thanks in Advance,

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    It sounds as though you are sharing and iCloud account with someone else, you need to have a separate iCloud account, otherwise there is no way of stopping other sharers from accessing your photos in photo stream.

  • I'm trying to purchase Guy Sebastian's (Australia) albums, but I keep getting a link "view in iTunes" which doesn't respond.  How can I purchase music that's a few years old?

    I'm trying to purchase Guy Sebastian's (Australia) albums:
    "Beautiful Life"
    "Closer To The Sun"
    "Just As I Am"
    "Twenty Ten"

      How can I purchase music that's a few years old?

    Guy's older albums have been on other countries' Itunes in the past.  I don't know why they come and go.  Guy keeps promising to spend more time overseas, releasing and promoting his music.  I'm sure they'll all become available again then.  You could import CDs, of course, but that becomes expensive.  Online, Sanity and JBHiFi in Australia will mail overseas.

  • Can't rate photos in Bridge - options seem to have disappeared and Bridge is not responsive?

    When I'm going through my photos to begin culling, I can't seem to rate any of my pictures.. I don't know how or why this has happened because I could do this a few days ago. When I use the hotkeys to rate photos now nothing happens, and even the Ratings filter option seems to have disappeared. I've purged the cache from the folders and nothing seems to help. I'm using OS X Mavericks and the latest update on Bridge.

    I'm in the same boat. I used the same computer to rate some of the photos and after a repair and complete re-install I can't rate anything anymore.

  • Mountain Lion Recovery DVD - How can I make one, ML was installed on my iMac and BBP

    Mountain Lion Recovery DVD - How can I make one, ML was installed on my iMac and MBP when I purchased them. When I look at the App Store, it dose not show ML as purchased (to download again) - do I have to purchase it again to make a Recovery DVD?
    Thanks for your help.
    Regards
    NGI

    do i have to purchase it again to make a Recovery DVD?
    No. You can still make a bootable recovery DVD, but you will not be able to make a full bootable copy of ML without purchase.
    1) Enable the debug menu for Disk Utility via Terminal Application. Navigate to terminal by typing "terminal" in   spotlight. Copy the bolded text below and enter it into the command prompt:
    defaults write com.apple.DiskUtility DUDebugMenuEnabled -bool true ; open -a "Disk Utility" ; exit
    2) From the Debug Menu > Select Show every Partition > Recovery HD should appear
    3) Right click (control + click) the Recovery HD partition and select "Mount"
    4) Right click again the partition again > "Reveal Recovery HD in Finder". Leave this window open
    5) At this point, you will need open terminal again and enter the following command:
    sudo chflags nohidden /Volumes/Recovery\ HD/com.apple.recovery.boot/BaseSystem.dmg ; exit
         Type your password when prompted.
    6) Navigate back to the Recovery HD finder Window > com.apple.recovery.boot > BaseSystem.dmg
    7) Drag "BaseSystem.dmg" into Disk Utility's sidebar.
    8) Insert your DVD
    9) Select "BaseSystem.dmg" in the sidebar and hit "Burn"
    Once the burn is completed, hold option down at startup and select the DVD to boot. This is a bootable Recovery partition, not a bootable copy of ML.
    Note: to disable the debug menu,
    defaults write com.apple.DiskUtility DUDebugMenuEnabled -bool false

  • How can i make more room on my 6-year old MacBook Pro?

    How can I make more room on my 6-year old MacBook Pro? I already have an external hard drive.

    Two options:
    Delete files from your Home folder you no longer use or need (but do not delete anything from the /Home/Library/ folder.)
    Buy and install a larger hard drive. You can find suitable drives at OWC. You would need a 2.5" notebook drive that is SATA II or SATA I compatible - 1.5 or 3.0 Gb/s.
