In trying to put a photo icon in my dock, I lost all my photo albums and can't get them back.  Please help.

I tried to put a photo icon on my desktip dock.  In doing so, I have lost all my photos file, every album, every photo.  Can anyone help me retrieve them in their album form?

As I said for iTunes purchases:
See:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For other music you have to get them from where you originally obtained them.

  • I took photos and they saved in my camera roll. they were there the next morning. I took more pictures and they are all gone. why did they not save and can i get them back ?

    I took photos on my iPhone on yesterday and they all saved. I looked at my photos the next day and they were still there. I took more photos and now none of the last photos that I took in the last two days are there. Why did they not save? Can I get them back? My storage was not full. I just updated my iPhone to ios 7.1 a few days before.

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • I had pictures and videos on my I phone 4 s which I wanted to put onto my laptop, and I dunno what I pressed on I tunes it totally wiped out all my stuff. How can I get them back??? Help???

    I had pictures and videos on my I phone 4s which I tried to put onto my laptop and I don't know what I pressed on I tunes it just completely wiped out all my data, how can I get all that back I've been told e everything is still in the phones hardware does anyone know how I can get it back??? Need help please???

    Do you see them on the phone? If not, they are NOT "still in the phones hardware".
    It's hard to suggest a course of action when we don't know what you did and you are unable to tell us.
    If they are not on your computer, and they are not on the phone, I don't know what else to suggest...
    Were you using iCloud? Did you have photo stream enabled? If you did, they would have been uploaded to iCloud. If you did not, then they are gone.

  • TS4036 I deleated pictures from my photo stream that were in albums.  I did not know that when I deleated from photo stream they would automatically deleat from the album.  Can I get them back?

    I deleated pictures from my photo stream that were placed in albums.  I did not know that by doing this I removed them from the albums as well.  Is there any way to get this photos back?

    Not unless they are still in your camera roll, or backed up on your computer.  Photo stream photos are not automatically backed up anywhere.

  • HT4623 The icons for my camera and facebook have disappeared.  How can I get them back

    I installed IOS6 recently on my IPhone and now my camera and facebook icons have disappeared.  How can I get them back?  Help!

    For your camera, go to Settings>General>Restrictions and be sure that Camera is set to On.  Don't know why you can't find FB, be sure you checked all your screens and inside all your folders.

    You can get your information back if you have previously done a backup in iTunes or iCloud.

  • My friend took my phone and tried to guess my password to unlock it, and he locked me out of my phone for a minute, but when it unlocked and i tried to use my phone all of my apps, photos, all my data had been deleted. how can i get them back?

    As Ocean20 say, your only shot at recovering the photos and data is to restore from a backup (with iTunes if you took the backup with iTunes, through iCloud if you took the backup through iCloud).
    The erasure is to prevent your data from falling into the hands of somebody who takes your phone and eventually guesses your password. If you feel that the inconvenience caused by this feature and your friend outweighs the trouble that somebody could cause if they got possession of your contacts and other data, you can change this behaviour.

  • My photos are out of chronological order after the os 5 upgrade.   How can I get them back in order?

    My photos are out of chronological order after the os 5 upgrade.   How can I get them back in order?
    If its not possible, how do I go back to the old  os?

    I had tried that several times with no luck.  Late last night I was finally able to get through  to the Verizon technical support who then called in Apple technical support.  It took 1 1/2 hours for them to figure it out and guide me through a fix.  So here's the deal .......... I use Yahoo mail and had left the "contacts" button in the on position.  Apparently Yahoo likes to go into your contacts and gather information and can leave it in shambles.  My advice is, go to settings, then mail, contacts, calendars.  Select any and all of your email accounts and go in and turn off their access to your information.  Leave it on for Icloud but none of the others.

  • I'm running iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5. My collection of 25,000  photos on iPhoto library is completely empty. How can I get them back?

    I'm running iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5. My collection of 25,000  photos on iPhoto library is completely empty. How can I get them back?
    I dragged one photo to the My Pictures folder in Finder. I knew it was just one photo because it was the only one highlighted in yellow. When I saw it in Finder, it was labled iPhoto. I thought it was the wrong picture, so in Finder I deleted the file. When I got back to iPhoto, EVERYTHING was missing. Events, photos, recent, and even trash. At this point, I went into my Trash. I searched for iPhoto and iPhoto was there. I opened it and it was still empty. All I want to do is to get my collection of photos back!

    Best solution is to load your backup from before you did this?
    Where did you drag the photo from?
    Have you tried dragging it from the trash to the desktop?  What size is it?
    What size is your iPhoto library in the pictures folder?

  • I deleted some photos off of my iphone and I lost them off of my computer too  I was in photo stream  Can I get them back?  They were pictures of my newest grandson...over 200 photos!

    Hi..I need help.  I downloaded my photos off my iphone4S and put them on my mac.  I then deleted them off my phone and it also deleted them off my mac.  I am a grandmother and the photos (around 250) were of my newest grandson from the day he was born until his first month.  I was with them all that time.  I have since return hom some 1000 miles away and noew i lost all these photos..  Is there anyway I can retrieve them?  I believe photo stream had something to do with it.  My daughter will be so disappointed in me and I can't get them back.  Thank you!

    Apparently they were backed up the day before this happened but I don't know how to get this back.  I am new to all this technology...what would you suggest I do next?

  • When my photos were moved from iPhoto to Photos in the last system upgrade, they lost all their titles. How can I restore them?

    In the latest Yosemite upgrade, my photos were migrated from iPhotos to Photos and lost all their titles. How can I restore them?

    There is an Applescript, File Name to Title,  provided by user léonie that will put the file name of any selected photos into the Title field for that photo.  If there already is a title in that field under the thumbnail it will not replace it with the file name. 
    tell application "Photos"
      activate
      set imageSel to (get selection) -- get a list of selected images
      set counter to 1
      set currentfilename to ""
      if imageSel is {} then
      error "Please select an image."
      else
      repeat with im in imageSel
      set title to the name of im
      if not (exists (title)) then
      set currentfilename to the filename of im as text -- retrieve the filename of image "Im"
      set newname to currentfilename & "." & counter
      set counter to counter + 1 -- increment the counter
      set the name of im to newname -- write the newname to the title field
      end if
      end repeat
      end if
      return currentfilename -- return the filename of the last image
    end tell
    Copy the script above, open Applescript Editor and past it into the open window.  Compile and save as an Applescript application.  Put the app in the Applications folder and drag into the Dock. Now you can select images in Photos and launch the app from the Dock and it will do it's thing.  It is a bit slow so can take some time for a large number of images depending on the speed of your Mac.
    Just to be on the safe side create an album with a few titled and untitled photos and run it on them.

  • The sound on my ipad 3 suddenly stopped working i dont know why i tried the last two days to fix it and also restored it and the sound never came back, please help.....

    the sound on my ipad 3 suddenly stopped working i dont know why i tried the last two days to fix it and also restored it and the sound never came back, please help.....

    Do you get sound on any apps e.g. Music and Videos but not others ? If you do then have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • IOS 5 Cleared My Apps/Photos/Videos - WHY? Can I get them back?

    I backed up my iPhone before updating to iOS 5. After installing iOS 5 and restoring the phone, my apps, photos, and videos are all gone.
    No other iPhone updates have this this, why did iOS 5?
    Can I get them back?
    Thank you

    I just encountered a similar problem, but just as frustrating.
    Yesterday I updated my iPhone 4 to OS5, and as it finished restoring, there was a message prompting an 'unknown error occured'. I found that all of the original data was present though, apart from the fact that all of the apps I ever had were now on my phone, randomly arranged. I decided to deal with it later today.
    Meanwhile, today I took a couple of hundred pictures. So tonight, as I wanted to sync them to iPhoto, iTunes prompted me to continue restoring first, as it found the process wasn't complete yet. Unknowingly, and given the fact that I've been through this process more than once, I opted for the restore to be completed, only to find my apps nicely arranged, and all data from the last day erased. This is highly frustrating.
    For the sake of completeness: I tried resetting, never interrupted the process nor disconnected my iPhone.
    If anyone knows a remedy, I'd be most thankful.
