Hi Ive moved photos but they appear as duplicates in iPhoto. When you try and open them it says Photo can't be found. I have thousands. How do I get rid of these images?
Also I have many duplicate photos (from backups) It would be great to be able to remove all duplicates at one time, like in Itunes.
Can this be done?

You moved what photos from where and to where?
Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

I created an image in Photoshop and saved it as the PSD file. Now when I try and open it it says it is not compatible with my version. How could this be when I created it in this version?

That depends on why it won't open. Most of the time it means the file is corrupted and unlikely to be recovered. If you saved it right after adding or copying a LOT of layers - then it might just be the layer limit and we can attempt to recover it.

Make sure all of the videos used in the project that is having that problem are from the same event. If they are from multiple events, move them all into one event.

Have CS 5 Installed on my iMac and works ok. But installed on my new MacBook Pro it won't open NEF files from my Nikon D810. Displays NEF icons, but when I try and open them the response is: Make sure latest RAW updates are installed. If problem persists

Have CS 5 Installed on my iMac and works ok. But installed on my new MacBook Pro it won't open NEF files from my Nikon D810. Displays NEF icons, but when I try and open them the response is: Make sure latest RAW updates are installed. If problem persists follow link: http://www.adobe.com/go/kb407111. Have installed Bridge 5.0.2.4; Raw Ref Version 7.0.0.308; DNG converter_8_7_1.dmg; Bridge 5.0.2 Update 2. Also same problem with Lightroom which I don't normally use. Lightroom_3_LS11_mac_3_6.dmg installed.

In the link you posted it states that the Nikon 810 requires ACR 8.6 or newer.
Version of ACR are specific to versions of Photoshop. You cannot use 8.6 nor even 7.0.in CS5.
I believe that ACR 6.7 is the latest that will work with CS5, so make sure you have this installed and get rid of ACR 7.
Having 2 versions of ACR will cause problems.
You have already downloaded DNG Converter 8.7.1.
Have you double clicked the DMG file to allow you to install DNG Converter on your computer?
Be aware that DNG converter is a stand-along application and not a plug-in.
You need to open DNG converter at select the FOLDER that contain your .NEF files.
Don't open the folder and try to select individual files, it doesn't work that way.
After converting your D810 files to DNGs you can then open the DNGs in CS5
The problem is your camera didn't exist when CS5 & its version of ACR was developed.
i don't use Lightroom, but the list mentions Lightroom 5.6 as needed to open D819 so your 3.6 version of LR won't cut it.

I recently downloaded a series of instructional videos. They are in mp4 format and rather large (~500MB on average). When I try and open them with Quicktime (default) they will not play. Are there file size restrictions? Any suggestions would be great

Try VLC Media Player. It has a reputation for playing just about anything you throw at it.

I have some photos in i photo that come up with a black ! when I try to open them. What is the problem ?

I have some photos in i photo that come up with a black ! when I try to open them. What is the problem ?

It means that iPhoto can't find the file.
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?

Up to now, spam could be deleted and then eliminated in trash. It no longer works. Have tried many ways to get rid of these messages but they keep showing up back in spam. Suggestions, please.

I no longer can get rid of spam. I would delete them while in spam; then I would delete them again in trash mode. Recently, the same messages reappear in spam. I've tried deleting them one at a time and in a group but nothing works. Two of the items are from apps and one is from Africa. Are there any other ways to trash spam? Please help!

MacBook Pro & USB frustration: Why is it that my USB files appear in an "unrecognized format" when I try to open them on my Mac?

Hello, I recently bought a MacBook Pro and every time I insert my USB, it appears on the desktop. However, when I double-click it to open the files, the files appear in "an unrecognized format". They all end with this: ".lnk"...if it's a video file it ends with .lnk, if it's a picture file it ends with .lnk, if it's ANY document it ends with .lnk. I'm getting tired of this situation and I've only had this laptop for a week. Please, open my eyes and show me that the sacrifice I made to buy it was worth it. I wanted a Mac so bad, and now this is making me hate them and prefer PCs. What do I do??? How can I change that and make this laptop read these files??? Please help. I need to copy some video files from my USB to my Mac as soon as possible.

An lnk file in Windows is a shortcut that points to the actual file. Rather than copy the actual files, you made a shortcut to them on your USB drive. Try going to the Windows machine and selecting the files then choosing Copy, change to your USB drive and choose Paste.
If you were to open a Finder window and right click one of those files then choose Get Info, you'll probably find that it's way to small to contain the movie or whatever.

Have you upgraded to iPhoto 9.6 for compatibility with Yosemite? If not, try that first.
It looks like iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails and the original image files.
This can be caused by a corrupted iPhoto library, or the originals have been deleted or moved.
Try first to rebuild your iPhoto Library:
If you do not have a current backup of the iPhoto library, make a copy of the library, but do not overwrite any previous backup.
Launch iPhoto with the ⌥⌘-key combination (option-command) held down.
Select "rebuild" from the first aid panel. This may take a while for a large library.
Can you now see your photos again?
If not, rebuild the library with iPhoto Library manager as described by Old Toad: Re: iphoto crashed

I have the iPhone 4, and yesterday I synced my photos onto iTunes, but now I have albums on my phone that cannot be deleted, and there is not an option to delete the items in the albums individually... How do I get rid of these unwanted albums? Windows 7

If you used iTunes to get the photos on the phone, then use the same iTunes and uncheck the music you don't want and do another sync.

Just got a new MacMini. Migrated files using Time Machine. However, now, on Launchpad, I see several Firmware updates that were relevant for the old machine, but not for the new one. How do I get rid of these updates? They won't delete!

My iTouch will not show movies, but they are showing on my iTunes. When I try and play them through my iTunes it freezes on me and does not work. This problem only occurs whenever I am using my netbook. It doesn't happen when I use a different computer. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes and am not sure what else to do from here.

I cant seem to open some photos on Iphoto. I downloaded like 3 months ago from my phone into the iphoto. I could access ALL of my photos back then but when I try and access them now I cant seem to open the file

I cant seem to open some photos on Iphoto. I downloaded like 3 months ago from my phone into the iphoto. I could access ALL of my photos back then but when I try and access them now I cant seem to open the file. When i open iphoto and open the folder thats on it, i can see ALL the photos that are there but when I click on different ones some appear in the larger screen but A LOT of them dont appear. Iphoto seems to have erased the file or I dont know.
Also I tried clicking on the photo that doesnt appear and making it "Reveal it on finder" - "original file" and it says 'The operation can’t be completed because the item can’t be found.".
I really want those photos because they involve a really special family vacation, please help me find those photos

A LOT of them dont appear.
What do you see in the window when you click on those? A blank, black window? An exclamation mark? What?

HT1229 Ive move photos but they appear as duplicates in iPhoto. When you try and open them it says Photo can't be found. I have thousands. How do I get rid of these images?
