I manually rebuilt my iPhoto, but cannot find newest roll of images

A few weeks back I noticed after syncing my iPhone that a majority of my pictures (or thumbnails) were blank, gray squares where the images used to be. However, the weirdest part was that I could see all the thumbnails to the newest roll that was added to my iPhoto. I read some of the forums here about how to fix my iPhoto and eventually realized I had to manually rebuild my iPhoto library. Just in case I wouldn't lose any images, I copied my entire iPhoto library and put it in another folder. However, after rebuilding my library, I noticed that the newest roll that I could see are no longer in my library and I can't find them anywhere. I went back to my time machine file from before rebuilding the library, and when I brought that back, the images were still missing. I have no idea where they could have possibly have gone and while all my other photos are now visible in iPhoto, I would like to know if there is any way of retrieving the images that I lost after rebuilding my library. I would really appreciate any help or advice as to how to proceed.

Welcome to Apple Discussions,
Search your computer, external hard drives and your copy of the iPhoto Library for the missing images as described in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1995
If you cannot find the images that would suggest they have been removed from the computer (deleted).
You might have turned off the copy to iPhoto when importing images. Check iPhoto > Preferences > Advanced > Make sure that "Copy Items to iPhoto Library" is indeed checked. With this option unchecked, images are not imported to iPhoto, instead they stay wherever they are when imported (like on the camera for example).
If you don't find the images by searching then data recovery would be the next step I would take.
If the images were recently taken with your camera you could recover them (Assuming you've already deleted them from the camera. If you haven't just re-import them.) from the media card using a product like this: http://joesoft.com/products/klix.php
You can contact a local Apple Authorized Provider to see if they offer data recovery services: http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/
There are many nationwide / worldwide data recovery companies out there. Here are a few examples:
http://www.ontrackdatarecovery.com
http://www.drivesaversdatarecovery.com/
http://www.totalrecall.com/
You can also use data recovery software to retrieve accidentally deleted data yourself. Here are a few examples:
http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php
http://www.macintosh-data-recovery.com/
http://www.subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?mainpage=product_info&productsid=1
_ In the case of data recovery software you will most likely need an external hard drive for the software to recover data on to.
Hope that helps.

Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again.

My MBP has Mountain Lion installed. The iPhoto version is 8.1.2. Cannot install iPhoto 9.4 without installing 9.0, but cannot find 9.0. Solution, please.

If you're running Mac OS X 10.8.x ou can purchase iPhoto version 9.x from the App Store. If you purchase iPhoto at the App Store you will automatically get the most up-to-date version and you won't need to install the 9.4 update.

Using Gmail in iPhoto and cannot find any of my groups to email. I have at least seven or eight groups that I email, each containing over 50 addresses. Is there a way to locate my email groups using iPhoto to send out mail in Gmail? Using version 9.5.1

Using Gmail in iPhoto and cannot find any of my groups to email. I have at least seven or eight groups that I email, each containing over 50 addresses. Is there a way to locate my email groups using iPhoto to send out mail in Gmail? Using version 9.5.1 (902.17) OS is Mavericks 10.9.1.

Your question and description is not very clear to me, so hopefully something here will help:
1. Gmail is a service not an app or a place. So you need to access the service with an app - that can be iPhoto, Mail, Outlook or any other mail client, or even a Web Browser like Safari or Firefox.
So you can't "go to GMail" as you write, but instead you go to an application set up to use the GMail service.
2. iPhoto is not a mail client. It's a handy way to email pics to Grandma, but for what you're doing you need to use an app that supports all of the Gmail service. iPhoto doesn't. There is no way around that.
3. How to send to groups will vary depending on what app you use to access the GMail service. All of these apps can receive photos from iPhoto, either - as in the case of Mail and Outlook, via the Share function - or, in the case of all the rest - via a Media Browser.
For help sending to Groups using any of these other apps you need to ask omn their respective forums. But the workflow is quite simple:
Using Mail or Outlook set in the iPhoto Prefereneces:
1. Select the pic(s) you want to share.
2. Choose email from the Share function
3. Make your selections re size etc
4. The email opens up in Mail or Outlook
- from there you need to figure out how to use the email client.
Using any other app:
1. In the mail app create a new email
2. Click on the Attach button or link
3. Use the Media browser to select the pic(s) you want to send
4. Attach them
- from there you need to figure out how to use the email client.

HT6114 My i-Photo icon on my dock now has a big "x" through it since I upgraded to OS X Mavericks. I have tried to upgrade but cannot find where to do so.

Iphoto has an "x" through it since I upgraded to Mavericks. I need to upgrade but cannot find where to get iphoto app 9.3. I have searched for it at App store.

I cannot add a Wi-Fi guest network. Gone to Utilities>Airport Utilities and all I get is an image/browser of my Airport Extreme. Looking for the browser window which has the title Wireless but cannot find anywhere. What am I doing wrong?

Open AirPort Utility. The first screen looks something like this:
Click on the AirPort Extreme and another screen will appear. Click Edit, then the window with the Wireless tab will appear.
If you do not see these screens, you will need to start over and configure your AirPort again.

My iPod 5th gen will not completely turn on it shows the apple symbol then shuts off I have restarted it and tried to plug it into my computer but cannot find it to restart it
Its been like this for awhile and I can not fix it

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I am trying to set up my apple tv on a sony KDL - 40xbr4. The remote is a sony RM-V302. I plugged it into the HDMI IN on the side of the TV but cannot find out how to get to that input. I am at a winter rental property and brought my Apple TV with me.

I am trying to set up my apple tv on a sony KDL - 40xbr4. The remote is a sony RM-V302. I plugged it into the HDMI IN on the side of the TV but cannot find out how to get to that input. I am at a winter rental property and brought my Apple TV with me. I did check internet for solutions. The instructions I found said to use a "home button" on the remote. There isn't one. I sure would appreciate help if someone knows a solution. My first post - hope I did this right.

if its anything like my Sony, theres a button top left corner that upon each press i get an audible bleep and the AV inputs come up on screen, i then cycle down to whichever input i wish to select!
in case your remote is different, the button on my remote has a square with a slightly smaller square just overlapping the first square.
hope that helps?

I have connected my ipad to my computer and logged into iTunes website. On my iPad to restore my my data Ipad I have chosen language, country then it asks you to connect with cable and log into iTunes, I have done that, but cannot find this other information I need to restore from the website. Can you help me please? the 2 replies, I thank you, but this has not helped with my problem.

Your post is somewhat confusing. To restore your iPad you use the iTunes application on your computer and connect your iPad. Select your iPad in the left column of iTunes on your computer and select General in the right column. You should find the restore choice there.

I havev installed a new Hard Drive on my laptop but cannot find my Photoshop Elements product box with the serial number to install Elements 10 or Elememts Premier 10. How can I find out the serial / installation codes for these?

How can I find out the serial / installation codes for these? I saw a reply however, it was not my name and assumed it was for someone else. Now timed out. Can UI still have help on this matter please?

If you registered PSE before, go to the main page of adobe.com, sign in and go to your account and you should find the serial number there in your purchases.
