How to restore "black" pictures in IPHOTO

I have recently had a lot of problems with my iphoto 11. All updates are done, and i am currently working to restore a 16 000 picture library. It began by Iphoto
refusing to open, so I corrected by ATL and COmmand, and it seemed to repair itself. Now the problem is a random selection of pictures in my events have gone black and I am unable to see them. This really is stressing me out! Should I return to an earlier saved version on time machine? But then the original problem of iphot not opening was present. What can I do???

Is their any way to fix the iphoto without dowloading the iphoto library manager?
Using iPhoto first aid - but this did not work for you so - no
There is no restoring your library -
download iPnhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function - this will create a totally new seperate library leaving your existing library intact if you need it
You will have two libraries and can switch between  using the command launch
Will I then have two librairies when opening IPHOTO?
yes - but if the new one is good then you would trash the old, bad one later

  • How to restore particular pictures in iphoto backed up via time machine

    cant we open an app like iphoto via time machine for a particular date ??
    like i want a pic that i deleted from iphoto , how can i do that without restoring full iphoto library???

    As AnaMusic said, iPhoto library can't be opened via Time Machine to restore photos separately, so you will have to restore the whole iPhoto library.
    1. If you don't want to lose changes made after your last backup, copy the iPhoto library, that it's on Pictures folder, to another folder.
    2. Open Finder, select Pictures in the sidebar and open Time Machine.
    3. Navigate through the backups, select the iPhoto library you want to restore and press Restore.
    4. Double-click the iPhoto library to open it on iPhoto.
    5. Drag the photos you want to transfer to your "existing" iPhoto library to the Desktop. You can select more than one pressing Command key.
    6. Delete the "restored" iPhoto library on Pictures folder and copy the "existing" iPhoto library to Pictures folder again.
    7. Open iPhoto and drag the photos on the Desktop to iPhoto, so the photos will be on the iPhoto library.
    If you have any problem restoring the iPhoto library, see > http://pondini.org/TM/E9.html

  • How do you move pictures from iPhoto to an SD Card on a late 2011 Mac Book Pro 15 inch?

    How do you move pictures from iPhoto to an SD Card on a late 2011 Mac Book Pro 15 inch?

    Do you have a SD slot? If not you get a USB to SD memory card adpater at the computer/office/online store and use that.
    It appears as a drive on your machine and you can use Export from iPhoto or drag and drop methods too.
    Make sure you backup

    I had a similar problem in that my wife's iphone 5 could not send pics with imessage.  Had to set the settings to default to SMS or whatever.  After laboring many hours on the web I coincidentally was on the phone with the internet people to question my internet speed.  They changed the router channel, which is something that I am capable of doing myself.  After that, the pics go over imessage.  My own Iphone didn't have the problem.  We are both latest IOS 7.0.6.

  • How to I export pictures from iphoto to a sd card

    how do I export pictures from iphoto to a sd card?

    Exporting from iPhoto to the SD card is preferable. Dragging to the card will only write the lower quality  preview files and not the high resolution originals.
    Export to a folder on the Desktop and then drag the folder to the card. If the file system on the SD Card is not MacOS Extended (Joournaled), you'll avoid a problem with the limit of files, that can be stored on the top level of the card by collecting all files in a folder.
    Actually I found the opposite was true.
    As you can see in the following picture, the dragged photo, which is the one named IMG_2268.JPG  retained more metadata and had a larger file size than the one I exported which was reduced in file size, and lost a bit of the meta data in the export.   Including the creation date, and the latitude and longitude.
    I think Dragging is the better option.

    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 the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see when iPhoto opens?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your 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?
