How to put photos back into two film rolls which are now emply.

For a few months my iPhoto has been unable to do things it should be able to do according to iPhoto documentation, such as put slideshows in a folder.
Yesterday I titled about 50 film rolls that previously were unnamed and deleted quite a few slideshows. Now, when I look in two very important film rolls in my iPhoto 6.0.4 Library, their over 1,000 photos are no longer there. My iPhoto trash is empty.
I have 3 recent backups. One, a zip backup is (along with my iPhoto Library) in my pictures folder. A backup iPhoto Library & zipped Library are on an external drive.
Can I get just the missing photos from one of these backups into my current library? ______ How? __

I was under the impression it was there so you can back up all your files.
iCloud is not intended as a backup, but rather as a central storage for your documents and data, so you can keep them up to date and  accessible on all devices.
For your photos in iCloud you will need iCloud Photo Library. This is still a Beta version, and has not yet been released for the Mac, but is already available on iPads and iPhones with iOS 8.
See this support document:    iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ
You can enable iCloud Photo Library beta on your iPad, and then your photos will be stored in iCloud. Your Mac can see these photos using the Photos Beta app on the icloud webpage at www.icloud.com .
In a few weeks or so, when Apple will release MacOS X 10.10.3, the new Photos.app on the Mac will be able to migrate your iPhoto Library to iCloud   Photo Library, as described here:   Apple - OS X - Photos Preview
Just wait a bit longer, until iCloud id ready for your Photos library.

  • Can i put photos back into the camera chip once they have been imported into my mac?

    Can i put photos back into the camera chip once they have been imported to my Mac?

    Export them
    File -> Export
    to a folder on the desktop. From there copy them back to your camera.
    Remember, the camera has a quite specific set up of folders, and you'll need to put the files back in the correct place for them to be viewable on the camera.

  • Anyone know how I can transfer my playlist from iphone to Itunes on my laptop. Computer had crashed. I am unable to export. I had backed up songs to icloud which are now on my laptop however without the original playlists folders?

    Anyone know if I can transfer my playlist from iphone to Itunes on my laptop.
    I am not keen to sync my iphone to my new laptop in case it wipes out my playlist.
    My Computer had crashed so I am unable to export a playlist.
    I had backed up songs to icloud which are now on my laptop however without the original playlists folders?
    Any suggestions?

    Hello CDA ENT
    I would turn off the automatic syncing so that way you can see what is on your iPhone. From there, you should be able to see what is on your iPhone and then can export out the playlists and then import them back to your library. I would also recommend backing up your iPhone before going through with this process. To export a playlist, have it highlighted then go to File > Library > Export Playlist…

    Open iTunes Preferences and select the Devices tab. Select the option to prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.

  • How to transfer photo back to iphone camera roll?

    I accidentally click delete after import while importing photo from iPhone to iPhoto. All photos in my iPhone's camera roll were gone.
    I have tried to sync photo back to iPhone but it only created a new folder rather than putting photo back to camera roll.
    Is there any way to transfer photos to camera roll folder?

    You don't - not without a paid 3rd party utility.
    All photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process are optimized for viewing on the iPhone - the original resolution is reduced, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported.
    Transfer the photos from your previous computer to your new computer from your computer's backup along with all other important data.

  • Putting movies back into the camera roll on iphone 4s

    Have some videos that I shot with the iphone 4s, after shooting them I loaded them on my macbook air to free up space on the iphone with iphoto.  I now want to be ablt to reaload them to the iphone so I can edit them with imovie on the iphone.  I am wondering what the fastest way is to get them from iphoto back to the iphone camera roll.  I tried using Itunes, but the movie did not go in the camera roll so I could not open it up in the imovie app on the phone.  Tried a couple of apps that use wifi to transfer from computer to phone but one of the videos will not upload.  Is there an app that lets you transfer the movie back to the camera roll without using itunes?

    Hi,
    Try to drag your videos to the iPhone photos folder in iPhoto. Should work.
    If it doesn't help, you can always upload your files to dropbox or something similar and later download them on your iPhone.
    Hope it helps.

  • Putting photos back onto your ipod (4g) using itunes windows?

    Hi, I have been having troubles putting photos back on my ipod (4g). Its easy talking them off I just plug my ipod into my computer and go into the folder and copy and paste my photos onto my desktop. But I have been having a diffecult time putting those same photos back on. I Go to Itunes, click on my ipod, go to the top and sync my photos from my folder, but when I go on my ipod the photos are in there twice in two different albums and I cant delete them. Is there anyway that I can put these photos back into my camera role.

    You are doing it the right way.  I think yuare seeing the photos twice since one album on the iPod contains all photos on the iPod and ther are then individual album for photos such as synced photos (you can have more than one alubum if you used subfolders in the syncing folder), the Camera Roll album, ones you created on the iPod

  • I loaded my ipad photos from camera and all the pictures sorted by date.  Next, I did a sync with my computer and the photos were all reorganized into IMPRT folders an out of date sequence.  Any idea how to put the photos back into date files?

    What version of iPhoto?
    Select one and rotate it. Then rotate it back. Does that make it appear? 
    A much better work flow is the keep the photos after importing.  Check the success the import, wait for at least one successful backup cycle then use you camera's format command to reformat the card

  • I my harddrive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    The external drive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    Are the photos you want to send back to your mac on your iPad, iPod, iPhone saved to the camera roll? If you have photos in other albums (not camera roll) share them to the camera roll.
    Then connect your device via USB and lauch iPhoto. You will see your device as a camera in iPhoto.  Import those photos like you would import from a camera.

    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
