IPhoto 11 crashed - Lost an entire album

Hi,
I am using iPhoto 11 (version 9.4.3) on a macbook pro with retina display, OSX 10.8.3
iPhoto crashed as I was editing a photo, a message saying iPhoto crashed unexpectatly and asking if I wanted to submit a report to apple or restart came up, I pushed report to apple, it did not seem to submit anything. When I opened iPhoto again the album with my latest import was there but it was empty... This was also the album in which I had been editing several RAW photos. All my other albums are there, nothing else seems be missing. I have had it crash before when editing with RAW files but never have lost photos from the main library.
The photos still exist in the package contents, the RAW files in the original folder and the in the Preview all the JPEGs with color corrected effects. I manually went in to collect this files, to copy and put them some place else in my computer... My question is if there is a way to restore the library so that I don't have to duplicate files by importing photos again?
Thanks for any help in advance.

My question is if there is a way to restore the library so that I don't have to duplicate files by importing photos again?
Couple of things:
1. You don't want to import those photos again to that database as you know it's damaged - either fix or replace it. Importing more before doing one or the other is asking for trouble further down the road.
2. Most simple and surefire fix: restore from your back up. This replaces the database with the one that existed before the problems caused in the crash
3. Some options for rebuilding:
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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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 pushed report to apple, it did not seem to submit anything.
This happens in the background.

    I have also notice that when editing thumbnails (some of the photos do not correspoind the the thumbnails displayed.
    I have read some of the reports on iphoto crashes.  I do not seem to have a 3ivx folder.

    I also tried iPhoto on another computer (which has the same photos on it) with the same error.
    This could be a problem with these particular files then.
    Try
    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. .

  • IPhoto crash, lost slideshows

    Iphoto crashed - it just shut down - and I lost all the content in my slideshows.  Any idea how I can recover them?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see when iPhoto opens you library?  Describe or post screenshots.
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • IPhoto crashed - Lost Project Progress

    iPhoto crashed and I lost the majority of a photo book I was working on (which took a few hours of carefully selecting and composing pages.) Is there any way to recover the file?

    Unfortunately no

  • IPhoto crashes lost all imported files from today

    Upon re-launching iPhoto dos not display the newely accoried media files that were imported and my SD card shows they were imported? I look at events and the media not their then I goto photos nothing. SO I go back to my SD card and click show all media even if imported. I then re-import the files but then iPhoto says do you want to add this file with the file you are trying to add already is in iphoto but it's not cause the first try iPhoto crashed and the photo that iphoto shows as duplicate is a gray space? Were are the 1st imported media?

    what version of iPhoto? 
    Try Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

  • Interesting... iPhoto crashes when editing smart album

    Okay, I'm editing a smart album. Every time I add the second rule, iPhoto just locks up when I click OK. Here's what I do:
    http://web.mac.com/bookofmac/iWeb/Pure%20Bliss/iPics%20problem.html
    If I just leave off the album rule, it will get all of the pictures with "kodak" in the comment area. It just hangs when I add the album rule... what's up with it? Thanks

    Have you tried A: reversing the order of the rules or B: deleting that smart album and create a new one?
    Do you Twango?

  • IPhoto crashing when making new album or almost anything!

    Hi - I've been having this issue for months and am trying again now to resolve it as I'm tired of having it. Here's what I've tried:
    1) Holding down Option when launching to create a new library to see if it replicates (still crashes)
    2) Rebuilding the library
    3) Using the program often reccommended on this forum that rebuilds libraries or creates new ones (can't remember the name now - tried that in May)
    4) Deleting the program and the files associated with it, reinstalling it from the App Store - no effect
    I'll post the source code below - let me know if more code would be helpful. My iPhoto worked fine on my old mac laptop but when I purchased my new macbook pro in March (with Lion) and transferred all my information over with migration assistant all the problems started - it has never worked once. Some instructions on here seem to point to re-installing the OS (Lion) but I don't see why I need to do that given the computer came with it?! If that's truly the only option can someone point me to a threw that outlines in detail how to reinstall it from the beginning (and with Lion I don't have a disc, which makes me nervous).

    I've since re-installed OS X Lion and tried verifying/repairing disk permissions to follow the first suggestion. My iPhoto is up to date (actually on 9.4.2 now), and I am running OS X Lion 10.7.5. I just tried iPhoto again and here is what I am now reading (see below). In re: to Quicktime, I've read on a few forums that it's an integral part of OSX and I can't delete it. I'm not sure how true that is, but I would have thought re-installing Lion would make an impact. Is there any point/help in upgrading to Mountain Lion?

  • IPhoto 9.4.2 crash - images of latest album lost

    I imported images to iPhoto 9.4.2 and deleted them from the sd after import.
    When I was editing the images iPhoto crashed (maybe 30min. after import)
    When I started iPhoto again the album was empty! Now I lost all my images. Is there any way to recover the files?

    You can recover the images from the camera card with an app like MediaRecover
    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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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 have lost my entire IPhoto Library and albums

    IMac OS X  V 10.6.8
    I have lost my entire IPhoto Library and albums. 
    How do I restore?

    Your only other option is to stop using your Mac as soon as possible to minimize precious data being overwritten to, purchase a high quality, fast external hard drive, preferably a FIreWire external hard drive such as these
    http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/firewire/1394/USB/EliteAL/eSATA_FW800_FW400_USB
    using an OS X Snow Leopard install disc, format this external drive as a Mac OS extended (journaled) formatted hard drive with a GUID partition scheme and then, using a install disc of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, install a fresh copy of OS X Snow Leopard and boot your Mac to that external hard drive by using the Startup Disc icon in the OS X System Preferences Panel to boot your Mac to the external hard drive. Once your Mac is booted and running from this hard drive,  then use the OS X Software Update feature to update that version of OS X Snow Leopard to OS X 10.6.8.
    Then, you need to do a web search for a Data recovery software such as Prosoft Engineering's Data Rescue and purchase, download, install and use this software to perform data recovery of your iMac's internal hard drive following the proper instructions on how to use the software. to recover the data.
    Be advised that any images you recover will no longer be in a format that IPhoto will read and most like will just be a folder with just the images alone without any more linkage to the IPhoto library, but I am not completely sure about this as I always have redundant backups of my entire system.
    If this seems all too complicated and complex to you, you need to stop using your Mac ASAP and either contact an Apple Store or Apple Authorised reseller/service/repair center to find out how much it will cost for them to recover your data and bring your Mac in for a more professional data recovery.
    I still strongly advise you purchase a high quality, large storage, fast, external hard drive to use for future data backups to prevent such a catastrophic data loss from happening, again.
    Every  computer user SHOULD have, at least, one external backup drive and having redundant backup drives is even better.

  • IPHOTO crash, pictures lost

    Just recently iPhoto crashed and I've lost all of my pictures that I downloaded. I've tried to locate them through backdoor means but with no avail. iPhoto is a relatively new program to me so I need all the help I can get.

    Hi, Catiepie. Since you were in the middle of re-importing your photos when you posted, we don't know whether or not that resolved your problem. If it didn't, you may now be a bit worse off than you were before, depending on exactly how you went about it. Let us know the outcome.
    When your computer hangs and you force it to restart, it doesn't have a chance to do its normal directory housekeeping chores before shutting down, and the result is often a damaged directory that doesn't properly reflect changes you made before the forced restart. That's one possible explanation for the corruption and apparent disappearance of your iPhoto Library. A more likely explanation, given your additional questions, is that you had been mucking about in your iPhoto Library folder in the Finder, trying to arrange things in there more understandably. If that's the case, your library was corrupt even before the system hang and forced restart, and its corruption was entirely the result of your meddling with the organization that iPhoto imposes on its library, and expects to find in place the next time you open the application. You must stay out of your iPhoto Library folder at all times, leaving everything inside it exactly as iPhoto has arranged it. Simply renaming a file in there is enough to prevent iPhoto from opening the library at all. Use the options within iPhoto for all alterations of the contents of its library.
    If you have trouble locating photos in your iPhoto Library when you're working in other apps, open iPhoto and export copies of the photos in question to the desktop. Then quit iPhoto. The pix will then be right where you can easily put your hands on them, and you won't have to go rummaging through the iPhoto Library folder after them.

  • Lost photos as iphoto crashed- how do I get them back?

    As I was downloading my photos from my exilim camera, iphoto crashed and I lost my photos. I pressed the download and delete from camera button as I usually do- so there aren't any files left on the camera. Can I open one of those files in the picture library that I have no idea what their function is about and find my photos?? Are my pictures possibly hidden somewhere. Please help!!

    Isaac:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The photos in your library are in the User/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals folder. What happened is that the crash damaged the Library6.iPhoto database file, causing iPhoto to think there are no photos in the library.
    You'll have to start over with a new library and import the Originals folder and subfolders into the new library. Move the current library folder to the desktop and launch iPhoto. When it asks you what to do select "Create library". Then drag just the Originals folder from the library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window. That will give you the same rolls as was in the old library but no keywords, comments, albums, etc.
    To recover the files in the camera you can try MediaRECOVER. You can run it in the Demo mode to see what photos it will be able to recover before you commit to purchase.
    In the future for insurance against the occasional iPhoto database corruption that you experienced I recommend that you make a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get you your library back. With that in mind by keeping it current I mean backup after each import and after any serious editing or creating that you might do in the library like making books, slideshows, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Imported photos, deleted originals, then iphoto crashed and lost everything

    I imported photos from my iphone, deleted the originals (i never do this, but figured, it's a new year so i should start cleaning up my phone!), and then iphoto crashed and now the photos i imported are nowhere to be found! help!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There's still a good chance that the photos are in the library but just not being recognized by iPhoto. Backup the library and try the three fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Fix #2
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select last three options.
    Click to view full size
    Fix #3
    Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
    4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    NOTE: this is not the same as routinely backing up your entire iPhoto library folder to protect your photos. It only protects the loss of your organizational efforts that the database file contains.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

    Hi shldr2thewheel,
         it has been a while since we have last spoke, I would like to let you know, I am still working on getting used to the switch from windows to a Mac/Apple system. I do have a new question for you, I did purchase In Design CS5.5 through journeyed.com through Cuyahoga Community College of which I attend as a student, is there a way to purchase an online book through iTunes to learn that as well? Also, you know me, the struggling student, I would also, when and if the book can be purchased through the iTunes, would need to know if you do know of a much easier book for struggling students like myself and at a reasonable price as well for the In Design CS5.5 program. Our campus bookstore had closed early, and, so did the colleges library and our local library here where I do live, so, I cannot go to either place to purchase a book or to take out a book, plus cash funds are low at this moment as well but, I do have money left on the iTunes account to use, if it can be used. So, can it be used, the iTunes money, towards finding a low priced online book? I am in great need of assistance as I have a project due for my one course for this Tuesday, September 4, 2012.
    Sincerely in need of help once again,
    Kim

  • IPhoto crashed during sync, photos lost .. can I recover?

    So I plugged my iPhone in, iTunes opens & I open iPhoto. Whilst iPhoto syncs I choose to delete photos once it's finished. Stupidly started doing something else at the same time and then both iTunes & iPhoto crash. I end up having to restart. Look at my phone and all 100 photos have gone .. check iPhoto and they are not there either
    There are a load of text files that look like they should be the images, but they're not.
    Is there any way to restore lost photos? (I don't think the iTunes sync had finished up either so I can't restore to a previous time). Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Imogen

    If you took the photos with your phone, they might be still part of your last iphone backup, if you did not back up after the crash. "About backups": http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
