How do i get back my missing photos from iPhoto?

i accidentally moved my iPhoto application into the picture folder then clicked on iPhoto and it said create new folder and without thinking i clicked it and all my photos were gone, is there anyway i can get them back? if so how? PLEASE HELP

The panel is showing you the default iPhoto Library that has been created when iPhoto prompted you to create a new photo library.
And iPhoto does not seem to recognise any other library as iPhoto library. You did check the Trash, didn't you?
Search your Mac for other iPhoto Libraries with Find Any File, see Old Toad's post here:

Download and run Find Any File to search for a file with "ThumbJPGSegment" in the file name. These are files common to all versions of  iPhoto libraries.
FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If there's a library hiding somewhere on your hard drive FAF will find it.

  • I tried to save a video to IPhoto, and then when I tried to open IPhoto it told me I can't open the application because classic environment is no longer supported.  What does this mean, and how do I get back all my photos and fix this? thanks.

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know some details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is you library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • How can i get back my missing mini iPad, which was lost on Thursday night?

    How can i get back my missing mini iPad, which was lost on Thursday night?

    Unless you had Find My iPad enabled on it then there isn't any way to locate it. If you did have it enabled then you could try locating it either via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPad disabled on it.
    If you think that it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc, and if it was a cellular model then you should also contact your carrier

  • My old computer is broken, so how do i get my music and photos from my iPod onto my new computer

    my old computer is broken, so how do i get my music and photos from my iPod onto iTunes on my new computer. It says it can only be synced to 1. but my old 1 is broken.

    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    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.

  • Can get back all my photo from the previous iphone

    My 4s was lost and I'm using iphone5 with the same Apple ID.can I get back all the photo from my previous iphone4s?

    If you have an back-up or Photo Stream on iCloud you can. Otherwise your data will probably be lost.
    Do you have a back up? Check this article to restore the back-up on your new iPhone.

  • HT201317 i have enabled photostream on my imac but only a small selection of old photos from my iphone have streamed through.  How do i get all the existing photos from both my iphone and ipad onto my iMac?

    I have enabled photostream on my imac but only a small selection of old photos from my iphone have streamed through.  How do i get all the existing photos from both my iphone and ipad onto my iMac?

    This usually happens because iCloud only keeps photo stream photos for 30 days (even though your last 1000 photos will remain on your phone until deleted).  When you enabled photo stream on your Mac you only received photo stream photos from the last 30 days.
    To get older photos to your Mac, create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99).  The be sure you check Shared Photo Streams in iPhoto>Preferences>Photo Stream.  You can then import them to your iPhoto library by opening the shared photo stream album in iPhoto, then going to Edit>Select All, Control-clicking on any of the selected photos and selecting Import.

  • How do I get BACK to my ipod from I store, with new itunes?

    So I start my I tunes..
    It goes to my Apps.. OOps, I have 1 update available.
    It goes to the down load page.
    I can download it, or refuse it.. and then it takes me to the ITunes store.
    How do I get back to my own Ipod? I cannot find the menu option. seems the only way is to exit Itunes and restart.
    I really do not like this new Itunes format. its so frustrating.
    Thanks.

    You can't put music directly onto your iPod from a memory stick. You can, however, get iTunes to recognize the tracks on the stick without having to copy them to the computer. Go to the iTunes Advanced preferences and uncheck the option to "Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library". Then use the Add to Library command or drag the tracks into the iTunes window. iTunes will recognize the track files on the memory stick and allow you to sync them to the iPod. Note that when you remove the memory stick, iTunes will of course then not be able to play nor sync the tracks until you put the stick back in. It may therefore be better to just clear some space on your computer's hard drive.
    Regards.

  • How do I get back to iTunes 8 from 9 ?

    Hi
    I have 2 Macintosh mashines.
    I dislike Safari 4, so I'm using the 3 version.
    Now I just have installed iTunes 9 and when I wanted to go to iTunes Store I was asked to upgrade my Safari to version 4, which I still do not want to do.
    How do I get back to iTunes version 8 ?
    (Fortunately I still have iTunes version 8 on my other Mac and I mange to get in contact with iTunes Store from iTunes v.8 – so I know it is still possible to talk to iTunes Store from iTunes 8)

    I am having the same problem. I think my computer's too slow for iTunes 9.

  • How do I restore only a few photos from iphoto using time machine?

    I have about 100 photos that have become corrupt and I need to restore from time machine.  When I try to restore the iphoto library, it says it cannot restore because library is too big.  How can I get back only the few photos that are corrupt?
    Thanks!
    Dorothy

    Please expain what you mean by 100 photos becoming corrupt? That is extremely unlikely - it is much more likely that you have a corrupted library
    Probably rebuilding your iPhoto library is the solution but with no information about what you have or what is going on that is only a wild guess
    For iPhoto '11 Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database and see if that resolves things
