I updated from iPhoto 09 to 11 and lost pictures

I also checked and can't find them in my pictures folder on my computer. Thanks for the help!

Please explain more.
Are all photos missing or only some?
Are you seeing a completely empty iPhoto Library, or are some events showing?
I also checked and can't find them in my pictures folder on my computer.
Did you keep the iPhoto library in the default location in the Pictures folder?
And how did you upgrade from iPhoto '09 to '11? Did you perhaps uninstall iPhoto '09 before updating? If yes, how?

  • Just updated from snow leopard to yosemite and can't open or update iPhoto

    Just updated from snow leopard to yosemite and can't use or update iPhoto- help??

    i tried to download the free iPhoto 9.6 app but i can't.
    Where did you try to download that? This looks like you tried to download an updater.
    Move iPhoto.app from your applications folder to the Trash.
    Launch the App Store.
    Sign in with your AppleID in the Store menu.
    Click the first tab "Featured" and enter iphoto into the search field. Hit the "Return/Enter" key.
    You should be seeing something similar to this:
    If you see iPhoto, download it.

  • HT1752 Hello, I updated my MacBook with OS X and lost all my photos (about 7 years of photos) on iphoto (now empty). Are they completely lost or is there a way I can retrieve them from my computer?

    Hello, I updated my MacBook with OS X and lost all my photos (about 7 years of photos) on iphoto (now empty). Are they completely lost or is there a way I can retrieve them from my computer?

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - 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?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • HT4431 I'm updating from iPhoto 8.1.2 to 9.4.1 (Good luck!)

    I'm updating from iPhoto 8.1.2. I have 9.4.1 and the other intermediary updates. What I am missing is 9.0.1. It does not seem to exist, though APple points to it on this page. When you click on the link, it takes you to 9.1. What now?

    Gosh, Terence, if I knew that I needed to make a purchase, I'd not be posing a question here. I did already make a purchase, though it may not have been the correct one.
    Before you read on, by all means, let me know what I need to purchase. I say that because the rest of my post is partly a rant, though a reasoned one.
    So I've worked this issue both backwards and forwards. I bought the latest version of iPhoto, version 9.4.1. But when I booted it, i was told that I needed version 9.x.x. The older version kept asking for the next oldest version. OK. So I went the other way. I started with my own version: 8.1.2. I added updates 'til I arrived at this impasse: both the 8 series needed the very first 9 series and the oldest 9 series needed the very first 9 series. That version, acc to Apple, is called version 9.0.1. It doesn't exist on Apple's update/upload pages. I used Google to find a discussion of it. Great! Not only did I find a discussion, the writer was kind enough to hotlink "9.0.1" to the web page on which it, supposedly, was available. No such luck: Both times I tried, I got the same Apple page which did not offer 9.0.1, but only 9.1.
    The goal: use iPhoto and Preview to edit my RAW files. I have downloaded the (free) latest update to do so. Now all I have to do is to get iPhoto (and Preview) to work.
    If, when starting from 8.1.2, a purchase was needed, it sure would have been great had Apple made a note of it. If there was no way to get from 8.x.x to 9.x.x without a purchase, it sure would have been great had Apple made a note of it somewhere.

  • Updating from iPhoto 4.0.3 to iLife 08

    1. If I update from iPhoto 4.0.3 to iLife 08 am I going to lose all my Albums?
    2. When I export an album to a desktop file to burn it to a disk readable by TVs etc, the photos don't appear in the order that they are in the album. What have I done wrong?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    1. If I update from iPhoto 4.0.3 to iLife 08 am I going to lose all my Albums?
    No. But always back up prior to an update. However your library will be fine and exactly as you expect.
    2. When I export an album to a desktop file to burn it to a disk readable by TVs etc, the photos don't appear in the order that they are in the album. What have I done wrong?
    How did you layout the album? Drag the pics into order, for instance? The Finder, which decides the order when you export works on a strictly alpha-numeric basis. The trick is to title the pics in iPhoto and use those titles as filenames on export. I iPhoto 08 this is done in the File -> Export dialogue. I'm not sure how this is done in v4.

  • HT5037 Unable to initiate updater from iPhoto 7 to iPhoto '11.

    After downloading and installing the iPhoto Updater (to update from iPhoto 7.1), the system will not allow updating to the new iPhoto despite having upgrading to Mavericks and downloading iPhoto '11.
    I installed OS X Mavericks. Then I downloaded iPhoto '11. When trying to open iPhoto '11 I get a message "To prepare the library, use the iPhoto Library Upgrader available from Apple."
    I go to the link, install the updater (the system confirms the updater was installed successfully), but now I am stuck...When I try to open iPhoto '11 again (NB: the old iPhoto icon is gone), I get the message "To prepare the library, use the iPhoto Library Upgrader available from Apple." again...even though I just installed the updater.
    Any suggestions for troubleshooting?
    After speaking with Tech Support the updater can be found in the utilities folder.

    Does the contents of the disk look like this in the Finder?
    Click to view full size
    That's a disk created via the Share ➙ Burn menu in iPhoto.

  • I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago avaiable.  Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore which i assume will literally delete any new contacts added...?

    I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I recently sold my macbook air and also my mac book pro, so have no recent backups avaiable.  I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago available on an external hdd as a time machine backup.  Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore?  The reason i wish to do this is because in the update i didnt lose any messages, so all of the people i have met and networked with since that last update those many months ago, i have in my messages listings.  They are all unidentified numbers at present but over time i will be able to work through the messages and based on the conversation recall who each was with.  Also, yesterday, some two weeks after the update had left my contacts list entirely empty... a vast majority just reappeard, though all of them are without any phone numbers, all just emails or facebook contacts.  This is the work of facebook not mac/ios6 isnt it...?  Any help here would be greatly apprecaited.  I am about 2 days from flying to canada and having those contacts would make life a lot easier.

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

  • Update for iphoto ....and i can't find my library or any of my pictures!

    Hello Wayne,
    well recently did the update for iphoto ....and i can't find my library or any of my pictures! I tried the same procudere that you suggested for numbers and pages, but that did not work. I don't even see the previous iphoto...Do you have any suggestions for this?
    Thank you.
    Edna

    Sorry but you need to give details to get help. What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? What upgrade did you just do? Who is Wayne - never sevens anyone named Wayne in this forum? What was the procedure tat was recommended (I doubt that any trouble shooting hints for numbers or pages would apply to iPhoto)?
    Remember we can not see you and only know what you tell us

  • HT1338 I have added photos from iPhoto into Photo Stream and enabled my iCloud but I can't see any uploaded photos. Does this sound right?

    I have added photos from iPhoto into Photo Stream and enabled my iCloud but I can't see any uploaded photos. Does this sound right?

    Enable PhotoStream in iCloud first, then add the photos to PhotoStream in iCloud. Of course, you will need PhotoStream also enabled on your other devices also in order to view them.

  • I am using Quicken 2007 (16.1.4) and had no problems before upgrading to OS 10.10 Yosemite.  When attempting to download security updates from my financial institutions (UBS and Fidelity), I get the following error OL-290.  Any fixes?

    I am using Quicken 2007 (16.1.4) and had no problems before upgrading to OS 10.10 Yosemite.  When attempting to download security updates from my financial institutions (UBS and Fidelity), I get the following error:  Quicken could not connect to the server.  Please try again later.  [OL-290]  I understand this is because of a mismatch between SSL certificates at the financial institutions and Apple's SSL certificate included with OS 10.10 Yosemite.  Any fixes to this issue?

    I have the same problem but Q for Mac 2015 does not meet my needs. Is there a fix for this problem?

  • I can't find my pictures from iphoto. I was downloading Iphone pictures and the library disappeared. How can I recover them?

    I can't find my pictures from iphoto. I was downloading Iphone pictures and the library disappeared. How can I recover them?

    Restoring a backup is specific to the backup program you are using to do your daily backups - consult it's manual, help file or author's support site
    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library starting with the first option and trying others until you are succesful
