Well that's a lesson learned.

    I have a iPhone 5.  In usage, it says i have 2.1 gigs used because of photos and camera.  I have deleted all my photos via iPhoto and now reset the phone back to factory settings in order to try to solve this problem, to no avail.   Both iTunes  and the phone say that 2.1 gigs are being used, even though the phone now has nothing on it.  What is going on?

    Yeah it works fine over wifi the problem is when I try to use it over my 3G. It's really stressing me out now.

  • My phone was stolen, but I had no data left and so can't locate it till the person who has it tries to use the internet. I backed up all my photos on iCloud, and want to get them on my PC. I installed iCloud onto the PC and still can't find my pictures?

    My phone was stolen, but I had no data left and so can't locate it till the person who has it tries to use the internet. I backed up all my photos on iCloud, and want to get them on my PC. I installed iCloud onto the PC and  followed the instructions and still can't find my pictures, says my photostream folder is empty, but it shows on iCloud that i've used most of my storage which is true, so they must be there somewhere?
    Any ideas? I'd really appreciate the help! Thanks

    Yes, I filed police report, but there is nothing they can do until I get back to them on the tracking. It's been offline. I'm sure the whoever took it can find a way around breaking in the ipad..i really was hoping to get my pictures and videos of my kids back

  • Hello i accidentally synced all my photos from Iphoto and they doubled, i removed them all eventually to re-import them again, but i have no camera folder anymore and i have a folder called "From Mac" how can i turn it back to normal?

    That is normal for photos synced from a computer to a phone using iTunes. Synced photos were never placed in the Camera Roll. Additionally since iOS 8 there is no Camera Roll: http://appleinsider.com/articles/14/09/19/goodbye-camera-roll-where-to-find-your -photos-in-ios-8

    If you have deleted all the photos from your iPhone you can't get them back.  The only place they might exist is if you backed them up to iPhoto if you have a Mac.  If you have iCloud and Photo Steam enabled, then the last 100 photos would be saved in your Photo Stream.

  • Whem i'm doing the backup it automaticaly saves contacts.....because i've synced with another computer anf it deleted all my contacts...and i really need them!!!!!

    Whem i'm doing the backup it automaticaly saves contacts.....because i've synced with another computer and it deleted all my contacts...and i really need them!!!!!

    If you haven't been using your phone as recommended, then you've lost all your contacts.  Contacts should be synched to your computer (Address Book, Outlook) or a cloud service (MobileMe, Google) for safekeeping.  The iPhone was never intended to be a storage device.
    If you haven't been using your phone as recommended and synching your contacts as above, frankly, you've no one to blame for your loss of data but yourself. 
    On that topic, are you making regular backups of your computer's data as well?  Hard drives WILL fail.

  • Hi guys i update my IPOd 4G with the new iOS5 .I made a Backup and I load it but all my Photos are lost how can I get them back ??? thx for Help

    thx for help !!!!!

    Which photos? If the missing photos were synced to the iPod then you have to get them from where you got them the first time. Synced photos are not in the backup that iTunes makes.

  • When I delete all my contact from iCloud, How I can restore them?

    when I delete all my contact from iCloud, How I can restore them?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    To restore from a back up made through iTunes, follow these instructions.
    To restore from a back up made through iCloud, try the following:
    The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs.
    Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
    Start the restore from iCloud back up.
    Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
    As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
    Wait for the time out confirmation.
    Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn off contact syncing (keep contacts when prompted).
    Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
    Delete any iCloud contacts from iCloud.com on a computer.
    Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn on contact syncing (merge contacts when prompted).
    May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now.

  • I deleted all my pictures from iphoto and emptied the trash but in storage it still says i have photos

    I deleted all my photos however when i go into storage it still says i have photos.

    iPhoto is an Application to manage and edit images.
    The images do not reside in iPhoto - just thumbnail links (think "like web pages show images"). The files themselves, and duplicates and thumbnails actually reside in (but do not delete, move or rename any of these files or you'll "confuse" iPhoto) the User/Pictures/iPhoto Library (which is itself actually a container of 21 items 8 of which are folders)
    You should reindex your drive after making massive changes... you may be looking at old (cached) data in the Storage report.
    Open the Spotlight system preferences and then drag your hard drive to the Privacy list, then back off again. This action will clear the index and cause the system to rebuild it from scratch. The second approach is to run the following Terminal command, which will likewise erase the Spotlight index:
    sudo mdutil -E /
    After the index has been erased, you will see the indexing progress bar appear in the Spotlight menu. Reindexing may take a while to complete (sometimes several hours depending on the type and size of the drive's contents), but after it's done, the system information utility should properly report file sizes.

  • I lost all my photos in iphoto and picture project

    I have a Mac OS X version 10.3.9, and the iphoto is version 4.0.3
    i emptied my trash, and then went through the applications and deleted the ones i don't use (such as PDA and palm pilot applications and the games that i will never play). After i was done, i went back to iphoto and all the albums and pictures were gone. I went into picture project (a nikon software) and those pictures were gone, but had the little boxes of blank pictures. My desktop originally had a picture on it that i downloaded from a camera was gone as well. when i logged onto another account those pictures were still there. When i logged back onto my account, my desktop picture came back, leading me to believe that my pictures are still there. But those are gone too. Is there anyway i can retrive my pictures? I really hope they are not gone! I have too many pictures...and only half of them backed up! =(

    i'm talking about the desktop trash. I don't know how to empty the iphoto trash.
    No, i didn't delete anything with iphoto. i know i can delete duplicates, and still keep one of the pictures, i have done that before. I did delete Chess, Deimos Rising, Ambrosia Software Web, Kinoma, Palm, PDA Shop Lists, PDA Money, PDA Safe ID, Splash ID, Splash Money, Splash Shopper.
    I logged under a different user name, and all those pictures were still in iphoto and picture project.
    No, i did not contradict myself. The desk top picture did come back, leading me to believe that all the photos were still there. However, when i checked the iphoto and picture project, those were still gone.

  • Automatic Delete all duplicate photos in IPhoto ?

    How can I delete all duplicate photos in my I Photo ? I have 6000 photos with many duplicates.

    Where are you seeing these duplicates? In iPhoto or via the Finder? If it's in iPhoto then try using Duplicate Annihilator. It can detect and identify duplicated image files that have been imported into iPhoto.
    If it's via the Finder then it's very likely you don't have true duplicates like you think you do.

  • I lost allmost all my photos from icloud how i can get them back?

    I had ipad 2 and i backed up to icloud.then i bought ipad3 tryed to get all the photos (around 1000)and only 65 came to my ipad3 and to my iphone 5 am i doing something wrong?

    That happened to me. I had the 4s and I just got the 5. You have to go to Settings. Then general. Then click reset which is at the bottom. Then click erase all content and settings. It will restart your phone and erase everything but it will let you choose a backup to restore. So you click the backup that was before you got your new ipad. Everything should come back. The same thing happened to me and I lost all my pictures but I got them all back. Hope this helps.

  • I've deleted the recently added and recently played tabs and want to get them back, how?

    Hi
    I've deleted the recently played, and recently added tabs on the left hand side of itunes, but I now want to gewt them back. I've tried to look online for solutions but they don't work, I get the icon up again, but nothing gets added. Am I doing something wrong.
    Heres what I've done - Go to file - Create new smart playlist - then in the box marked random, drop down box to most recently added - then name the folder when it appears on the left. Thats great, but nothing appears in that folder. I've also tried clicking on the + sign bottom left then hitting shift, which brings up the same box, but it still doesn't work..... Help!

    You need to specify what the values/attributes are for the two smart playlists. The below screenshots are from iTunes on my Mac (as that is what I'm currently logged in on), but I assume that the values are the same as they would be on windows :

  • Loaded photo into iPhoto and wanted to make a movie

    I have 40 images, one song and wanted to make a quicktime movie and post for friends
    Made the movie, 128 mb looks nice. (480x640) now I want to share it with friends. I tried to load it to my .mac public it get to the end uploading and locks up the computer. notthing is running, cant delete it it says its in use.. I did the same thing with Small size 240x180 its still 35mb
    How can I make a movie with a song and share it
    I cant run iDvd or iMovie I'm still on G4 with 1.2 ghz
    myspace has a limit of 100mb and NO option for .mov (quicktime movie)
    help please

    There are a couple of things you can do. One is to resize it during export from iPhoto to 320 x 240, a common size used for posting. Another is to use a video editor like VisualHub to reduce the size down to something more manageable. Possibly reducing the frame rate to 15 from 29 if it's at 29. Quicktime Pro can also resize movie files.
    If you visit the iMovie or Quicktime forum you should find some more knowledgeable users in this area.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
