I accidentally ran iPhoto Library Upgrader on my Picture folder and now I have to right click on it to "show contents" instead of looking at it in Finder. Help!

Help! I have 2 problems related to iPhoto:
1: I accidentally ran iPhoto Library Upgrader on my Picture folder and now I have to right click on it to "show contents" instead of double clicking on it and looking at it in Finder. I cannot figure out how to fix my Pictures Folder so that I can click on it and view it in Finder, when I double click on it Terminal opens up with this message "Pictures - Bash 80x24" and

It will not let me replace or delete the folder... I got to my files and backed them up, but trying to avoid reinstalling my OS.
2: When I try to Upgrade my Library.iPhoto file so I can open it in iPhoto it says I need to finish by opening in iPhoto, but then when I do, it tells me it first needs to be upgraded in the iPhoto Library Upgrader... Vicious circle. Please, help! Just trying to recover about 3 years worth of photos...

Hi! Thanks for responding!
I have iPhoto 9.5.1, I am on OS X Version 10.9.5 on a MacBook Pro with 2.66 GHz
My current "iPhoto Library" file is OK (I can open it with iPhoto), however I cannot access the old one from iPhoto 6 titled Library.iPhoto
I tried right clicking and choosing the application, it did not work.
"exactly how did you "I got to my files and backed them up"" - I showed the contents of my Pictures folder, and it opened up the folders in Finder and I copied them to an external hard drive. In my Picture folder I have several folders of Photos plus the iPhoto Library files (old & current)
I do have old back ups, but they are from April, and I recently imported 5 months of photos from my iPhone, so the iPhoto Library I copied after showing contents is the one I need.

IPod Touch 3rd Gen: Battery Draining very rapidly after iOS4 upgrade.

Hello All,
Sorry for the long post:
I was wondering if others are experiencing this issue as well? I have a 3rd gen ipod touch 64gb.
Prior to the iOS4 upgrade my battery life was very decent. I would easily go a couple(2) days before requiring a full charge on the device even with modest internet, game and music use. As a rule I keep my back light as low as I can stand to conserve battery unless I'm in direct sunlight and have no choice but to bump it up in order to see.
After the iOS4 upgrade my battery life has been drasticly reduced. Going even 24 hours without plugging the device in is totally out of the question and in many cases I find myself having to plug the device into my laptop or car pretty much any chance I get in order to have uninterupted use of the device while I'm out and about. Although I've never timed my actual use, my usage habbits have not changed as far as I'm concerned.
I went so far as to exchanging the device at my local bestbuy as I purchased the blacktie protection plan which grants me an exchange of the device for "any" reason; be it manufaturer defect, accidental breakage, or anything really short of losing it. The replacement was a brand new non refurb ipod which I synced and charged fully upon bringing it home. To my suprise, the battery life is just as bad as the ipod I just turned in. I have yet to downgrade to iOS3 but am considering it if only to see if I suddenly see a great improvement of the battery life.
If anyone is having the issue or has some suggestions other then downgrading please comment. If this is an "unknown" bug/issue/flaw in iOS4 I'm sure apple would like to know about it and I'm assuming they monitor these forums for reports of these issues.
Thanks!

Bose Sounddock functionality post ios4 upgrade

Hi all, following my ios4 upgrade to my 16gig Touch I noticed the only functionality that works from my Bose Sounddock 2 remote control are the volume controls ... nothing else works !! I see the 'Home' menu item withing settings has also disappeared so haven't got a clue where to start here. Has Apple cripled my Bose with its latest IOS? Any help much appreciated

BUMP

Iphone3GS + iOS4 problems with Camera picture names.

I use Image Capture to import all my images since i bought my iphone3GS more than a year ago with the delete after import option.
Now, with iOS4, I take 10 pictures then i import & delete and my images come with name IMG_0001.jpg to IMG_0010.jpg so nothing wrong here. The issue comes when i start making more pictures and import them. The image name start again with IMG_0001.jpg instead with IMG_0011.jpg as allways was.
This is a BIG BUG and i do not know how to resolve it. Does anyone have a clue how to do it?
Thank You,
Paulo.

Hi Paulo,
I'm suspecting that Apple doesn't regard this as a bug.
My personal thoughts that it is a silly feature to reset the file count each time you empty the camera roll, or better yet it could have a feature you could turn on/off in the settings like many cameras allow you to do.
If you want them to address it, send a feedback email to them here
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
I suspect that what has happened, is the developers have designed the iOS4 software around iPhoto and not anything else.
iPhoto creates Events based on the digitised time of the file, that is, the time you took the photo. So it effectively creates a sub folder called an Event and puts the photos there. When you download the photos from the iPhone straight into iPhoto and there were multiple days over which the photos were taken, it creates multiple Events. So in saying that, it doesn't really care what the file is called and if there are a thousand IMG_001 files in iPhoto in a thousand different Events, iPhoto and your computer had no trouble in finding them all.
You are like me and use Image Capture to import the photos rather than iPhoto.
My work around is to select the photos by each day in Image Capture and download them to a folder that includes the date they were taken (eg 100925 BBQ at the Beach (I add the date at the start so when I am searching thru finder, the folders are listed in the order I took them)) and have them deleted when imported automatically from the iPhone.
It not great, but it works for me and even though I may end up with a thousand IMG_001 files, they don't all end up in the same folder, left for me to work out which ones they are.
Hope this helps

IOS4 upgrade loses SMS data

It seems that the data restored to my iPhone 3G after the iOS4 upgrade was old/incomplete. Though it ran a backup during the upgrade process, I noticed SMS history for the past 12 hours had been lost. I can't confirm other data recovery issues - SMS was the most obvious and all of my email and contacts exist on other servers that were retrieved after upgrade.

I've also lost all SMS data as part of the upgrade - have tried restore from backup in iTunes and no change. Very very unhappy currently and looking for a solution!

IOs4 upgrade, 3gs no longer charges on Altec radio / iPod player

Ever since my iOs4 upgrade, my 3gs no longer charges on my Altec radio / iPod player.
Any ideas?
TIA

No suggestions. Sorry. But to share the pain. 4 must be the Vista of Apple. Since upgrading my 3gs gets physically very warm, which never happened before. I can't leave the phone charging connected to my notebook via a USB cable, which I could always do before: the phone actually drains. The multitasking feature is lousy: every app I run stays on, I can't control what is running unless I physically turn off the app, which is a design defect. How do I return the phone to the old OS unless and until Apple gets its act together?

IOS4 Upgrade Error -69

Maybe a different take, but the iOS4 upgrade seemed to go quite smoothly...
until it tried to restore all my data.
I now got an -69 error message.
Have no contacts or notes nor have any music sync'd
I've managed to get the phone working, but without any phonebook and when i try and manually add music, iTunes tells me that the source files are unavailable however i can play them from the main lib.

Unplugged my phone and then reconnected.
iTunes now tells me that there was a problem with a previous restore and would i like to try again.
fingers crossed

Itunes not playing while IOS4 upgrade

So Im upgrading my Iphone 3G to IOS4 and its taking for ever. Which is normal, and I expected this, but in the meantime I can't access the Itunes window, to keep playing music, or select my music.
What gives? is this just me? Is this the fault of the 9.2 upgrade (remember a few versions before apple messed up their upgrade by forgetting to add the minimize window shortcut with their upgrade?)

Nope i did not have any success with the other possibilities, other then the one concerning the hardware.
hmmm. okay, if you switched sound enhancer off, that probably would have covered that possibility anyway.
we'd better check your video drivers as well as your sound card drivers. (old video drivers can cause problems with Quicktime that can show up as itunes audio problems, since QT provides audio playback for itunes.)

Issue after iOS4 upgrade

iPhoto no longer recognizes/displays photos on my iPhone that have been saved via mms, email or 3rd party app (i.e. colorsplash) after recent upgrade to iOS4. It does show a photo placeholder and will ultimately import the photo but it will not display the photo. Displaying photos taken with the phone itself does not seem to be an issue.

Same issue, but it seems to get worse over time. At first it was just the 3rd party camera apps that iPhoto only displayed dotted white outline. And as you said, if you highlight it, iPhoto imports the picture.
But, it seems to get worse for me. After awhile, even the native camera app gets the same treatment and when you try to import the outlines, you get an error, where iPhoto says the picture format is invalid.
If you delete the cache --user-->library-->cache-->com.apple.iphoto, it seems to reset things for awhile, allowing you to import the dotted outlines once again.

Pentax k-x: recent upgrade messed up RAW conversion?

Hi there,
Since I upgraded to 3.03 (from aperture 2) and the newer version of RAW definitions (with a special mention of fixing the pentax k-x!) when reprocessing my pictures are totally off. Sometimes it'll look a bit better but often it'll be darker (with irretrievable loss of detail), sometimes extremely green and quite often hideously pink. Pink!
What's happening here?
kind regards,
Benji

Hi,
I upgraded... probably just after aperture 3 came out. I sure my libbrary is already converted. I have a 2007 macbook pro (2.4 ghz core2duo, 2 gb ram, 8600gt w/ 256 mb vram).
My question isn't on the library but rather on the files themselves, when I reprocess a RAW file that was already imported into aperture. When I reprocess using the newer version of the RAW converter half my images are messed up

Photos will not save after iOS4 upgrade

As subject says; wife's 3GS was upgraded. Did a full restore (wipe clean) then synced the backup after installation.
Not an issue with existing camera roll pics. Those are fine.
Camera will take pictures....you can then close the camera app, and picture is in camera roll.
If you choose the pic you have just taken (to MMS, email) an "photos saving" message will appear and never leave. The only way to get out of this is to shut the phone off completely. Upon turning the phone back on, the photo is not in the camera roll.
If you take a picture, close the camera app, open the camera roll, the picture is there. Shutting the phone off (either by hard reset or using the lock button) then turning the phone back on....no picture.
I've restored twice, and resynced the backup twice. Same result.
My iPhone 3GS is having no issues...so you can imagine the glares that I get because I have messed up her phone....
Thanks to all who reply.

After reading and learning more about iPhone backups than I ever thought I would...here is how I (with the help of others) solved this.
-copied all photos and videos from camera roll using the Image capture
-prepared a backup copy of wife's iOS 3.13
-deleted all iOS 4 backups I had of wife's phone
-restored phone to new with iOS 4
-did not restore phone with backup of iOS 3
After all of this....I deleted everything in the old 3.13 backup except the info.plist, manifest, etc files AND the files attributed to the stuff wife did not want to lose (contacts, SMS)
-then, connected phone, instructed itunes to restore a backup...pointed it to the 3.1.3 folder that I had edited...it only had 7 files in it.
-it restored this "backup" so wife had contacts and sms.
-after this, resynced all her apps, media, photos, etc.
She lost her settings and data for individual apps, but retained what data was necessary.
After all this...what had happened was her iOS 3.1.3 backups kept getting corrupted...and this was going to continue unless a different approach was taken. All of these steps came from various postings on other forums.

IOS4 upgrade - details on changes

I am looking for a site or document that explains all the updated functionality that comes with IOS4. I found the user guide, but that is specific to the new hardware as well. I want something that describes the functionality that comes with an upgrade to a 3GS phone.

A) Cover the camera and take a black picture - that is the solution I have heard of
B) The phone will automatically close programs that have been in the background for a while and have not be used if resources are needed. Should be no need to worry about shutting things down all the way any more.
C) Remove your pictures from your phone and re-sync. That has been reported to clear up blurry pictures.

Warning - iOS4 upgrade breaks Excel

we have three physicians using 3gs iphones between clinics and surgery. I was th eonly one to upgrade from 3.1.3 to 4.x. Major mistake. Excel files with embedded links do not open anymore on the iphone with iOS4. The other two 3gs iphones open the files normally and natively.
Went to the Apple Store for a downgrade in the OS. They cannot do it. I was willing to have the phone wiped clean. Still no luck.
Did the search for other methods and if you note carefully, itunes checks with Apple servers to be sure the phone is what it is and will stop the activation if you download the 3.1.3 on your own. Which I did anyway and found out its true.
Doesn't anyone feel it is interesting that there is no method to reverse the update to help return functionality one enjoyed for almost a year? And no, this was not in the upgrade disclaimer, Apple did not even know this was a "bug" after speaking with tech support on 1-800-apple.

I posted this in another couple of threads, but I figured I would post it here in case someone was monitoring it for replies:
If you have an iPhone 3G/3GS and have had problems with it working with your Ford/Microsoft Sync system, hopefully this will help. I seem to have regained 90% of my iPhone/Sync functionality back, though I think the remaining 10% might be due to a bad music file on the iPhone.
Here is a fix that I found while messing around with my Sync System last night:
First, prepare a USB flash drive to use to update your Sync System.
Download the current version of the Sync firmware from your syncmyride account.
(You must do this even if you already have the latest version)
Next, pull the fuse for your sync system. For my Focus, this was under the dash and labeled #13. Keep in mind that yours is possibly different, so look at the fuse box cover and/or your owner's manual to make sure.
Leave the fuse out for approximately 15 minutes.
Once the Sync system has sat for 15 minutes, replace the fuse.
Plug the USB stick into your Sync system and allow the firmware to update.
If you are told the current firmware exists, you may be OK, but I chose to re-flash the unit to make sure.
Make sure the firmware fully installes (the v2.1 release I installed took about 10 minutes to complete, you have to wait for 2 confirmations before it is done)
Next, wipe your phone from Sync if it was previously paired to it. I did a standard delete of all bluetooth devices (two iPhones paired).
Once this was complete, I was able to reconnect my iPhone with iOS 4 via bluetooth, and I can now connect it to the USB port and control it.
