Iphoto '08, Snow Leopard - after rebuilding all photos are gone
over 16,000 photos appears lost, I do have online storage with Crashplan and can download (I think- but the automatic backup process was going on
during the rebuilding process - may be corrupt too). Iphoto is unresponsive. Iphoto manager shows my default library will appropriate files, but calculated
size is 29GB which I am sure means nothing there. Do I remove all iphoto software and reinstall with the DVD before I download the recovered files
from Crashplan? Today Crashplan phone help is overwhelmed (post holiday?) so I am on my own. Thanks
Try this:
Start over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Open the library package like this.
Click to view full size
2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
3. Drag the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from that open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window.
Click to view full size
This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
Your original library will be untouched for futher attempts and a fix if so desired.

updated to Lion, from snow leopard after updating all necessary programs & system, recieved emails saying it was successful changing to icloud but can i access iclound No - nothing works! webmail & mail - also reset password.
Ok 1st one. The warning restriction message relates to this line in main.cf:
smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated permit_mynetworks check_helo_access hash:/etc/postfix/helo_access reject_non_fqdn_hostname reject_invalid_hostname permit reject_invalid_helo_hostname
The last reject occurs after the single word "permit" and is ignored.
However, that's not the problem.
I'm not exactly sure what's happening, but this might be a clue.
It would appear that either postfix is not being able to create the socket for private/policy or it's somehow created with the wrong permissions. You might need to ramp up the debug level to get a better idea.
You could check if it's being created by "netstat -a | grep private/policy" in terminal.
My guess is that it's not being created because there is no setup statement in your master.cf file, but I don't understand why postfix would be looking for it if it isn't set up. Private/policy I think relates to grey listing. Maybe gives you a hint. -
trying to add album from iphoto into idvd slideshow. Not all photos are loading. Message "creating thumbnail images...(31 remaining). Been there a long time. What is wrong?
Open your iPhoto Library, go to that particular album and verify that you can view the full sized version of each image by double clicking on them. Report back with the results.

Recently updated Apple ID and PW. After change, all the photos were gone from Photo Stream. How do I get them back?
Did you create these notes in the iPad notes App ... I assume?
This support article will explain how you can restore from a backup - which is what you have to do in order to have any chance of recovering your note.
How to backup and restore from a backup
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
But you have to remember, that you will lose any of the notes that you have taken since the date of the last backup. If you synced your iPad last week, then you will lose a whole week of current notes - or whatever notes you have created since your last backup. When you restore from a backup - you restore everything in that backup onto the iPad - that was on the iPad on the time and date of the backup.
If you backup every day, then all of your notes should be recoverable from the backup - except for any notes that you took since you last backed up. There is no foolproof way to recover everything once you start taking more notes or creating new documents or whatever that you do in an app unless you are syncing those notes with iCloud and backing up all of the time or unless the app is set to sync with iCloud as you work on the files - like in Pages, Numbers or Keynote - Apple's iWorks apps.
If you decide to restore from an iTunes backup you should turn off at sync before you try restoring because iTunes will want to backup your iPad right away when you plug it in and you will lose your old or last backup. -
IPhoto on Snow Leopard: importing videos or photos bigger than 1GB
Hi there, I use an iPad 3 and an iPhone 5 and 4S an in all of them I seem to not be able to import photos or videos bigger than 1GB to iPhoto (pre-installed) as it will keep waiting after I import all or selected files!
Any advice?iPhoto has always had a problem with importing larged videos. For large videos connect the iPad/iPhone to your Mac and use Image Capture to upload them to the Desktop before importing into iPhoto.

I just tried to import photos form my iPhone 4 to iPhoto...it seemed to get all the way to the end and then iPhoto wasn't responding in the
"finishing import" stage. I had already chosen (for the first time ever because I didn't trust it) to delete the photos from my phone. I seems to have imported some (though I can't find them) and deleted them from my iphone...so the import wasn't complete but there are photos missing from both my comp
and the phone. CAN ANYONE HELP ME FIND THEM? I restarted my computer and then launched iPhoto holding down command and option buttons and chose to "rebuild library from automatic backup". I still can't find them.
help?hi rosanne,
may i know where to find the modified folder? i have the same problem, unbelievable!
Thanks! -
Upgraded to iPhoto 9.2.1. (lion on powerbook) Photos are gone
Just upgraded to 9.2.1 and my photos have disappeared The initial message was that the library had to be updated and wouldn/t run on earlier versions after the update, it could take hours depending on the size. When the update was complete all the info was correct, numbers and events, but there were no photos in the events. Any fix for this?
What do you see in the Events?

What is current version iPhoto for Snow Leopard?
What is the current version of iPhoto for Snow Leopard? I have used iPhoto ever since 10.6.8 was installed --use Software Update all the time, my current iPhoto says it's v. 8.3.1. Now, suddenly, when I try to open iPhoto, messages says : " The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process may take several minutes depending on the number of photos in the library. (choices are) Quit - - Upgrade"
I am fearful to click the upgrade because I have assumed iPhoto was up-to-date for this OS 10.6.8. Fearful, because I envision losing the whole iPhoto library. I was in our local reseller/retailer yesterday and was encouraged to "just go ahead and click it!" but tho' I'm not a nerd, I need to understand what's going on here ! WIll appreciate any thoughtful counsel . . .9.2.3, which is part of iLife '11.

Retrieve backed up emails from Time machine in snow leopard after downgrading from Lion?
I installed Lion, but after putting up with it for the last month with problems like: computer crashes, slowing my computer to an unbelievably dismal speed and computer freezes at least once a day, I have now reformatted my hard drive. I have reinstalled Snow Leopard and restored all my settings, folders and applications from a time machine backup.
However, I am now back in my desktop (that's another story as all of a sudden it asked me for a password, even though I've never created one to log in) and on snow leopard- BUT I have no address book contacts and as for my email- well my email accounts appear in mail, but all my emails are lost (sent, received, inbox.... nothing there).
I desperately need those emails back as I run my own business and this has just been a nightmare. I thought that after reformatting and then restoring from a time machine back up life would go back to normal but obviously not.
Can anyone please shed some light on where I would find the folder in my time machine back up to cut and paste back over for snow leopard to show my emails again?
Thanks in advance.
AndrewI'm on Lion but iPhoto 09 so it might have changed in iPhoto 11
But this is what I see
If yours is different try looking in the iPhoto Help pages for restoring from Time Machine -
Please could somebody help me I have an iMac which came with Tiger 10.4.10 installed I have lost my disks and I need to re-install after a hard drive failure. Where can I find this? I will upgrade to Snow Leopard after but I cannot go straight to SL
You can go strait to SL, all you need is a retail SL DVD available from Apple for $20. The US online store has them at:

I upgraded my iphotos and now all my photos are gone in all my albums. (1800 photos.) How do I find them
and put them back where they belong?What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

i upgraded to snow leopard but iphoto was not included. How do I install iphoto on snow leopard 10.6.8?
IPhoto is not included in any OS upgrade. It is a seperate application. Unless you choose to erase your drive when you upgrade no application including iPhoto is affected by the upgrade (except potential compatibility issues). If you need to reinstall iPhoto for and reason you do it from the original source. Either
1- the restore disks that came with your computer
Or
2- the iLife DVD upgrade that you purchased
Or
3- the App store

I just created a new iPhoto library with holding the option key down and then opening iPhoto with version 7.1.5. I changed the name of the first library to iPhoto library 1 and now I all my photos are gone. My operating system is Mavericks.
launch iPhoto wile holding down the option key and select the original library - when you create a new library of course it is empty
And you seriously need to backup your iPhoto library and purchase and install iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x from the App store and download and run the iPhoto library upgraded \then run the new iPhoto - 7.1.5 is not fully compatible with Mavericks

PS you also need to update your profile - it states that you have OS X 10.6.8 -
How to explain. OK 1st all photos are visible in my iPhoto library; however, some are stored on hard drive and some are stored on external. All can be marked or unmarked in itunes, but none of the photos stored on the external drive will sync to my iPad. Anybody know what's up with that?
What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization. With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options. If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast. I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why? How is this making it a better program? I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was). But to not give users the option to delete that list? It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating. I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature. It smacks of rank incompetence.
What improvement were they trying to make here anyway? There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions. Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
And reverting to a previous version is no solution. I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS. -
