How to restore photos from iPhoto, I didn't not backup, and accidentally empty trash bin

please help, I accidentally empty my iPhoto trash bin, and i do not have backup, how do i restore my photos ?(go back in 2 weeks)....and i did not have iCloud. Please help, thanks.

Look in the system trash - with iPhoto '11 when you empty the iPhoto trash the photos go to the system trash
If you have emptied both then you need professional data recovery or a program like file salvage

  • How do i retrieve photos from iphoto on a time machine backup?

    how do i retrieve photos from iphoto on a time machine backup?

    To restore the entire library do the following:
    For a single photo you need to  know the file name?  If so you can extract photos one at a time out of the TM backups for import into iPhoto.  You would do it as follows:
    1 - download and launch  Find Any File.
    2 - select the Time Machine external hard drive.
    3 - enter the file name and search. It will take longer than a normal search due to the nature of the Time Machine structure, maybe up to 1 miinute.
    4 - select the file that is in the Masters or Originals folder in the search results window and drag to the Desktop where it can be imported into iPhoto:

    How to get photos from iPhoto back onto a SD card. I have a MacBook Pro with built in SD card slot. I have tried "Export" but this does not work.

    It's best to export the photos to a folder and then drag the folder onto the memory card.  Memory cards are usually formatted for PCs, FAT 32, which doesn't permit more than a limited number of files in the root directory. Putting the photos in a folder gets around that limitation.

  • HT204414 how to merge my iPhoto Library into my Photos System Library or how to import photos from iPhoto to Photos?

    Can anyone tell me how to merge my iPhoto Library into my Photos System Library or how to import photos from iPhoto to Photos?

    How many did you trash at one go? iPhoto will baulk and possibly corrupt if you try trash too many at one go. Expereinced users recommend getting rid of them in batches of about 100 or so.
    What's your plan for the remaining images in the iPhoto Library (the 2k photos and 4 videos)?

  • Does anyone know how to take photos from IPHOTO into Lightroom?

    does anyone know how to take photos from IPHOTO into Lightroom?

    Because Apple has dropped "Aperture" and is switching users away from "iPhoto" to a new photo application called "Photo" so that they are more fully integrated with the Yosemite 10 and the iOS 8.3 going forward there are some instructions how to import photos into Lightroom without losing to much metadata or other information. Go under Lightroom help and follow he instructions.

  • I have a LaCie external hard disk. I do not know how to retrieve photos from iphoto that have disappeared. I do not know how to use Time Machine

    I have a LaCie external hard drive. I also have Time Machine. I somehow have "lost" almost all my 5,000+ photos from iPhoto 8.1.2. I would appreciate someone giving me directions on how to retrieve the photos from the external hard drive or Time Machine.
    The last thing that I did that is different from my normal routine was to trash duplicate music tunes from iTunes. I cannot figure out how that would have caused my photos to disappear.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    I remember being cautioned to never do anything with the iPhoto Library. Should I have clicked on the iPhoto Library and then Restore?
    I do not know "how" items are being placed in the LaCie external drive, just that it shows a backup running about every hour. I have taken a snapshot of the Time Machine Preferences I would you to see. Maybe that would answer this question.
    In March 2011 I had to have hard drive on my iMac replaced. I had been using a Seagate external drive for backups. However I was not using Time Machine. When the Apple guru was helping me restore all my files etc on the new hard drive he was not familiar with Seagate and recommended I purchase this LaCie and use Time Machine. I never had any problem retrieving items from the Seagate backup. It was very straightforward. As I mentioned previously, I just don't have a clue with the LaCie and Time Machine.
    I hope this is not TMI.

  • How to import photos from iPhoto to Lightroom?

Please help me., Hey Guys, How do I export photos from iPhoto to Lightroom? I deleted them from the SD Card so I cannot import them directly to Lightroom.

    To simply import the original files is quite a simple process.
    Locate the iPhoto Library (default is your Pictures Folder). Right click on it and select "Show Package Contents".
    Locate the Masters folder and drag it onto the Lightroom icon or an open Library window. This will invoke the Import command.
    Be sure "Include Subfolders" is checked.
    Now you can import all the original files.
    If your goal is to maintain structure of the Events it gets a little more tedious. Drag the event onto the Lightroom icon or the Library window. Once imported you can group them into a Collection Name that mimics the Event.
    Repeat with other events.
    With the impending demise of iPhoto and Aperture, I suspect Apple may be working with Adobe to develop an automated process that will also maintain metadata that was added in those programs. If you can wait a while, it may be worth it.

  • How to export photos from iphoto'11 to portable drive for download?

    I have 2 macs in different locations and a 500gb portable drive. I am about to leave one location for the second location and want to take my photos from iPhoto with me on my portable drive.
    What is the best way to do this? I do have time capsule on the 1st iMac.
    I use Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 for editing on my iMac. I have a backup catalog Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and the folder 'my pictures' from my PC (on way to recycle - at last) on the portable drive.
    I am not currently using organizer from Adobe Photoshop 9 -but using events from iPhoto.

    Depends on what you want
    If your want your iPhoto library then drag it to the external drive - in the new location depress the option key and launch iPhoto and use the select library command to choose the library you want - the local one or the one on the EHD
    If you want to merge them then use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - to merge the library on the EHD with the local library
    If you want just the photos then select them and export them to the external drive and import them into the other library
    Explain exactly what you want if none of these help

  • How to export photos from iPhoto to memory card SanDisk

    Hi;
    I am trying to move photos from iPhoto to a flash drive. In the flash drive I have a SanDisk memory card in a Kodak 50-IN-1 Card reader and I put it into the drive. I have tried to open iphoto click on the photo, go to file click on export and it. The photo shows up in the flash drive port, I can click on it and see it but when I take the disk and try to re-upload the disk the photo will not show up on iphoto nor will it show up in the camera.
    The second way I tried was to create a folder, copy to the folder and the drag folder to the device. I again ended up with the same results.
    Why will it show up in the device when I click on the device but the photo will no show up in iphoto or when I put the disk into the camera?
    Tom

    Most cameras expect photos to be in specific folder(s) on the card and to have file names in specific formats. My Canon G12, for example, uses a structure like this:
    CANON_DC
    ....DCIM
    ........100___01
    ............IMG_0001.CR2
    ............IMG_0001.JPG
    ............more photos
    ........100___02
    ............IMG_0007.CR2
    ............IMG_0007.JPG
    .............more photos
    (My camera is set to create a new folder every month, but there are other options. One of my previous cameras went to a new folder every hundred photos.)
    Examine a card formatted by your camera with some pictures taken by your camera to discover what sort of file structure and filenames your camera creates, then mimic that.
    On the re-import side, iPhoto and Image Capture know about the common file structures and filenames, so it recognizes them when it sees them. Dropping long, random names in the top level of the card as illustrated in the video is likely only to work when you view the card on another system with a general file structure with an application that makes full use of it (like Finder or Windows Explorer).

  • How to import photos from iPhoto Library to Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor?

    I can't use Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor to edit photos from iPhoto Library. If I choose File, Open, and then select 'iPhoto Library', error message is "could not complete your request because of a program error."

    You can't do it that way. Any attempt to poke around in the iphoto library from outside iphoto is very likely to damage the library and cause you to lose your photos, so PSE won't let you. You have two choices:
    1. Set PSE as your external editor, send the photos from iphoto, and save them without changing the name or format (you may need to adjust the editor prefs>Saving Files>On First Save to let you do this). Then iphoto will remember your original and the last edited version.
    Be sure to choose this file in Applications>Adobe Photoshop Elements 10>Support files as your external editor, not the one at the top level of the PSE 10 folder in Applications:
    2. Export the photos from iphoto, use File>Open in the PSE editor to open the images and then save them with whatever changes to name or format you like, and reimport the saved images to iphoto as new files. This way you can save as many versions as you like.
