How do i recover my most recent i-photos after pushing relaunch of the i-photo icon in my i-book, which caused i-photo to reopen without the past 8 months worth of photos?

I went into my i-book to open up i-photo to see when the last time was that my photos had been backed up.  When i clicked on the icon it said would you like to relaunch i-photo because it is already opened and i said yes - then quickly tried to cancel, scared of what it would do, but it was too late.  It immediately shut down the originally opened i-photo through the dock and reopened what I had stored in the i-book.  Of course i apparently haven't backed up my photos in quite some time -which was also news to me as i thought it was constantly backing up and now i can not find hundreds of photos.  I-photo keeps opening up with what was saved on the i-book and not what i had on there minutes before.  Someone please help as I am devastated, because they are all pictures of my sons, including the one born 4 days ago :'(

Hi..
Thanks for the reply..
My original I Phone 5 was running IOS 6.12
My I phone 5S currently runs IOS 8..When I upgraded it, it had IOS 7 on it which made the I Photo app compatible with everything below IOS 8...( which the photo app is not compatible with ) so I just connected the I Phone 5S to my computer and thinking the new phone had IOS 7 on it that these was nothing to worry about..I thought all 900 + pictures in the photo stream would transfer but somewhere in the process, I Tunes decides to just go and install IOS 8 which requires that you run a " Photo Migration App" to transfer photos from IOS 7 & below. The problem was is that I didn't want IOS 8 on my new 5S so I thought I wouldn't have to do that part..
Anyway the phone emerged with IOS 8 on it and the only photos that remained were the ones that were actually on the phone..The 900 + I had in the stream didn't transfer because the Photos that works on IOS 7 and below isn't compatible with IOS 8..I guess you have to use the photo migration app that comes with IOS 8 & I phone 6..But I didn't ask to upgrade to IOS 8...It just did it on it's own!
I still have the I Phone 5 Back up that I did just before giving it back to Verizon but if I try to restore the I Phone 5S running IOS 8 those photos in the stream will not go back on the phone because IOS 8 isn't compatible with the I Photos" that ran on IOS 7 and below..
So I have an I Pad mini that runs IOS 7..should I try and erase it...and put that I Phone 5 backup on it and pray the photos that were in the stream come back on it so I can transfer them back to my computer...then erase the I pad mini again and restore it using it's original backup that I have on the computer and the in the cloud?
I know this sounds confusing but I'm at a loss as to what to do..This is what I found ...http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201386
but it doesn't help me..

  • HT1766 How can I recover my most recent back up after deleting it?

    I've lost all of my contacts and pictures after restoring my new phone and deleting my back ups (since iTunes originally told me to delete the back up).  Is there any possible way of recovering my lost data, even if I don't use iCloud?

    Recover from what?  Per your own statement, you deleted the backup.
    IF the device had been used as designed, contacts would be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service, as such, a backup or lack of a backup would be irrelevant.  Pictures should be copied off to the computer on a regular basis, like with any digital camera.  Then the user can sync back the ones they want/need on the device via iTunes.
    As an FYI, when using iCloud, there are no backps on the computer, it backs up directly to iCloud from the device.

  • How do i find my most recent movie rentals?

    how do i find my most recent movie rentals?
    I'm talking about the ones that were 30 days old and went away.
    I forgot one of the titles and i'm trying to find the list of what I rented

    You could use Spotlight (command-spacebar)
    You could create a "Recent Document " folder on the Dock.
    http://www.macworld.com/article/1160337/dock_access.html
    All it takes is a Terminal command. Open Terminal (found in /Applications/Utilities) and copy and paste the following text at the prompt:
    defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-others -array-add '{ "tile-data" = { "list-type" = 1; }; "tile-type" = "recents-tile"; }' ; killall Dock

  • HT3702 Why can't I download my already purchased music and other files from iCloud, even though I owe money to iTunes for my most recent purchases.  Doesn't seem right that they keep me from accessing those files which I've already paid for!

    - Are you saying that they are not listed in your Purchased section?
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Are they listed in your Puchases history when you log into your account on your computer?
    - Are they still available now for purchase? If not then you are out of luck
    If they are still available and listed in your Puchase History then contact iTunes

    It's possible that you need new drivers from HP, in order to be compatible with OS X 10.8.3. Looking at HP website, they haven't released new drivers since last November. You might need to wait for new drivers or contact HP to push for an update.

  • My iPhoto doesnt allow me to place more photos, says that the space is full but my mac book pro is new (less than 2 weeks) and I only got 500 photos, what should I do?? the computer is almost empty

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

    Hello Debbie,
    I would be concerned as well if my iPad was not recognized by iTunes.  Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue.  I found an article with a few more steps you can take (you can skip the steps you have already taken):

  • How can I retrieve my most recent tabs after I close Firefox?

    This is not a new problem for me - it has been going on for months and months, and I have wasted countless hours looking for a solution - so I decided to post a question on the forum, and hope for the best.
    The Problem: Whenever I close Firefox, it loses my most recent tabs, and there is NO way to get them back.
    Here's what I have tried:
    1. I set Firefox to automatically resume my previous session at startup. ( I did this a long time ago, and have not changed it since. ) When I restart Firefox ( without modifying the sessionstore.js file first ), I get an old session with all 5 of my tab groups present, but with two of them empty.
    2. Before restarting, I right-click on sessionstore.js, select Properties, click on the Previous Versions tab, click the latest Restore point, and apply. ( The latest restore point is always at least a week old. ) Now, sessionstore.js shows a size > 1000 KB. When I restart, I get the "embarassing" screen. Clicking Restore gives me exactly what was promised - the set of tab groups that I had over a week ago. This is the best I can do. It does NOT have my LATEST tabs.
    3. Before closing Firefox, I copy the sessionstore.js file from my Profile folder, and save it in a seperate folder on my desktop. ( This should contain any new tabs I just opened today, no? ) Then I close Firefox. Before restarting, I copy & paste the copy of sessionstore.js that I just saved into my Profile folder. When I restart, I get exactly the same results as in #2. The tabs I just opened today are gone.
    4. When I searched Mozilla support, I came across this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-restore-my-tabs-last-time?esab=a&as=aaq . It said "Note: In order to get your tabs and windows back from the previous session, you should close Firefox from the menu:
    At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button and then select Exit." When I close Firefox in this manner, it makes absolutely no difference - the results are the same.
    5. A page in Mozilla support also suggested using the plugin Session Manager. I tried this, and all it does is make it easier to go through steps #2 or #3 - the results on restarting are the same.
    6. I tried writing a "Bug" to submit to the Mozilla developers, but it's way over my head!
    I can't believe that this is the way things are supposed to happen. Surely other people are having the same problem!

    Thanks jscher 2000. I guess I didn't make it clear. "It restarts with all the addons activated, and resumes with the tabs that were open before closing it." IE, it's running fine now with all the extensions activated. Everything is OK now.
    So something in the Firefox code was causing the bad behavior. It's not essential that I find out what the problem was - I'm just curious. And if anybody else has this same problem, it might be nice to have it corrected at the source.

  • How to display record with most recent date in sapui5?

    Hi
    I have a local json data with me, in which I have number of records.

    Now I want to display the record with most recent date in the records.

    How about sorting your json model descending, and display only first (index:0) item?

  • Hello, I cannot figure out yet how to get Adobe's most recent Flash Player to Install Properly

    Hello Adobe,
    Please advise as to how I can get the most recent Adobe Flash Player to properly install onto my computer.
    I have tried to download: install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih.exe
    Multiple times and install to no avail.
    Please advise, and Thanks,

    Hi Ryan,
    What happens when you try and download from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer?  Does the download start?  Are you unable to find the downloaded file?  Does the installer fail?  If so, do you get an error message?
    Thanks,

  • How do I find my most recent iCloud Mail Trash?

    Today I was going through my email. I accidentally trashed a bunch that I hadn't read. No problem, I thought, I'll just open the trash and retrieve them. However when I open the trash folder the most recent emails are dated 1 week ago. None of the emails I'd just trashed show. Is there a trick I'm missing? Seems odd that every one of the hundreds of emails I've trashed in the past week are not available but everything from the previous 2 weeks is there...

  • How do I scroll to most recent mail message using my iPad's external keyboard?

    If I have been looking at a message further down, the only way I know of to get back to the most recent message is to scroll with my finger (sometimes through hundreds of messages).

    One way to get to the top (latest) is to touch the top of the screen above the list of emails.

  • How do I navigate to most recent message

    I know this is going to be a simple question. Every once in a while my email goes back to the oldest messgae. What is the command to go to most current message.
    Solved!

    ON the Storm models, you can "flick" your finger downwards to the scroll quickly to the top.
    Or press the Menu key > Show Keyboard > press teh "t" (for Top) key.
    "B" for bottom.
