I have uploaded photos to iPhoto but on completion my Mac crashed and the events are present but no photos remain. My iPhoto is managed version 11 9.4.3 (720.91)

Is there anythinh I can do to retrieve the pics? I uploaded from 2 SDHC cards, one of 230 pic (which I deleted from the card) and another of 1,200+ pic, which I did not delete.

a best practice to is to never have any computer program (including iPhoto) delete the photos from the card but to import the photos and keep them and then after at least one successful backup cycle has completed and then reformat the card --  I use three very large (32 GB) cards in rotation so I do not reformat for typically a year or more giving me one more long term backup of my photos

  • Why don't my photos appear as they do in iPhoto on my Apple Computer. Even though I specify to sync all Events, Faces, etc. the iPad 2 is missing Faces categories and the Events are in a different order.

    1) The best way to relocate the iTunes library folder is to move the entire iTunes folder with all subfolders to the new path, then press and hold down shift as start iTunes and keep holding until prompted to choose a library, then browse to the relocated folder and open the file iTunes Library.itl inside it.
    If you've done something different then provide some more details about what is where and I should be able to help.
    2) Purchases on the device should automatically transfer to a Purchased on <DeviceName> playlist, but it my depend a bit on whether automatic iCloud downloads are enabled. If there is a cloudy link then the transfer might not happen. You can use File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. In iTunes you should also check out iTunes Store > Quick Links > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer.
    3) Backup the device, then immediately restore it. In some cases you need to add a restore as new device into that equation. Obbviously not to be attempted until you're sure all your media is in your library. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device should it be needed.
    4) I believe there is complimentary 1 incident 90-day support with hardware purchases, but no free software support for iTunes itself. AppleCare gets you a different level of support.

  • I have two computers and one iphone, one computer and the iphone are synchonized but how can I copy the contents to the second computer?

    I have two computers (1 PC and 1 iMac) and one iphone, the PC and the iphone are synchronized but I cannot copy or sync the contents to the iMac. How can I copy the contents? Can I connect the PC to the iMac so that I can use the PC as a hard-disk? Will that affect the system to work smoothly?
    Thanks

    Did you already try to reset the iPod by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data.
    If this does not work, try to reset the network settings in Settings/General/Reset. After that you'll have to put in the passwords for all known networks again.

  • I cannot see my photos in iphoto library - I tried to restore with Time Machine and that doubled the number of photos (copies) but I still cannot see the images - the events are there but no thumbnails although the number of pics per event is correct...

    Can someone help me see my pictures again in iphoto? 3 weeks ago while uploading a video from iphoto to Facebook, my events thumbnails all disappeared and were replaced by black squares - the event names and number of pics in each remain but when I click on the event, I only get squares where the pics should be - when I click those squares, I get  a square with a triangle  and an exclamation mark in middle.
    Apple had emailed me about defective disks in iMacs so I took mine to the Apple Store and they replaced my HD then reinstalled from my backup via Time Machine - I still cannot see my pics! I tried to reinstall from an earlier Time Machine date - that copied everything and now my HD has double the amount of data but I still cannot see my pictures!
    I would be thankful for any guidance on how to retrieve my pictures...
    Thank you.

  • Clicking on Transition and Title browsers causes '11 iMovie crash and projects/events play audio but no video

    After several years of working fine, my old iMovie started acting funny. Clicking on the Transition or Title browser would cause it to shut down. I just bought/downloaded the "upgrade" to '11 iMovie, 9.0.4, yesterday, and now, not only does it still do the same thing, but the projects or events won't play any video portion, only the audio.
    I'm running 10.6.8 on an iMac

    I seem to be having the same problem. I'm running a mac mini and I have like 5 photos, 1 song, and 2 movie clips (not a lot of stuff) in the movie, and when i go to preview it... I see the pictures, and hear the music... but no video.

  • Why isn't my mouse opening anything when I click on it? It's moving around and the batteries are fine but it's not opening anything!

    My mouse is not working with my computer. The batteries are good. The cursor arrow will move where I want it but when I click,nothing happens! Ugh! Is it thecomputer or the mouse? How can I fix it if the mouse doesn't work?

    I was having all kinds of crazy mouse and trackpad problems after installing Lion.Reset PRAM and that helped briefly. Then found out my main battery was bad. Now that I have replaced it my mouse  and track pad are behaving.  It may have been coincidence or it may be that Lion is more sensitive to battery issues?
    Worth checking your battery as this can cause all kinds of problems apparently.....

  • My mac timezone and iCal events are suddenly an hour early but my iPhone is correct

    After traveling a few hours from my home but staying in the same timezone, my MacBook's timezone was suddenly set for an hour earlier and my iCal events too. Except when I enter an event on my iPhone (which is on the correct timezone), which syncs the correct time. So now my iCal is totally messed up. Some events an hour early (the ones that were there before traveling) and some that are accurate (the ones entered on my iPhone). I've tried the simple fixes but nothing is working. Any thoughts?

  • Tried to reinstall iPhoto library from external hard drive, it shows that the photos and events are there but there are no thumbnails and if you click on an image or video nothing comes up.

    My hard drive crashed recently and we took it to apple to get repaired. The apple employees said that they would have to replace the hard drive but they didn't have the equipment to get the data off my hard drive. So I took it to a computer store who had the right equipment after a month and a half of waiting they finally got all the data off my hard drive and put it on an external hard drive (Seagate Expansion Portable Drive). I then took it back to apple who replaced the hard drive. Now I'm in the process of reinstalling everything. I have never done a Time Machine back up or backed my laptop up to . Which I now will do very often once I've reinstalled everything. I have reinstalled all of my desktop images and folders as well as my iTunes library with no issues. However when i went to reinstall my iPhoto library it came up blank. I then Rebuilt the library several times and this was the result.
    It shows that the photos and events are there but there are no thumbnails and if you click on an image or video nothing comes up.
    Please help i have three years worth of images from holidays on here and would be devastated if i lost them.

    iPhoto cannot find the thumbnails or the original pictures.
    Go to your iPhoto Library in the Pictures Folder.
    Right-click on it and from the resulting menu, choose 'Show Package Contents'.
    This will bring you inside the iPhoto Library package. There you should see a Folder called Masters. Within that, there should be folder containing your actual photos.
    Are they there?

  • When I updated iPhoto, many of my photos disappeared.  The events are still there but no photos in them.  How do I get it back?

    When I updated iPhoto to iPhoto 9.5, many of my events with the photos disappeared.  The "events" are still there but there is nothing inside.  I have been unsuccessful in trying to get the photos back. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks,
    Greg

    Yes - backup first in case something goes wrong
    And if the iPhoto first aid does not resolve things download iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  and use its rebuild command to create a totally new library leaving the current one untouched if you still need it

  • Is it possible to reorder an iPhoto book 2 years later? My hard drive crashed and the photo book is no longer in my iPhoto but Apple printed it for me before the crash.  Would Apple still be able to print another copy?

    Is it possible to reorder an iPhoto book 2 years later? My hard drive crashed and the photo book is no longer in my iPhoto but Apple printed it for me before the crash.  Would Apple still be able to print another copy?

    For future books you might consider doing what I do:  create a separate library for each book andcopy the photos for the book from your working library to the book library with iPhoto Library Manager. 
    When the book is completed and ordered burn the library package to a CD, DVD or external HD to archive it so it's available for editing and reordering at a later date if needed.

    Same problem here, and it's not isolated.

    I believe you will find you can again sync Photos if you delete the "iPod Photo Cache", but predict that any subsequent attempt will fail.  In my case, the enxt sync removes all the photos again - I've seen other reports of error messages upon sync.  Mine just fails silently. :-)
