IPhoto 6 - please help - images lost

pls help if u can! i use iPhoto V6 and have 500 images that I have manipulated usign iPhoto where the original image may have been changed over time up to 10 times to render a new image - all saved correctly and filed under a sub system of changed images - this has been done over the previous 12 months
however on booting up this week my thumbnails in each iPhoto folder show the correct image but on clicking to open the original image comes up
i have never used the 'revert to original' tool - how has this happened?
where are my final (changed images) sitting.....
it looks like all images have reverted to their original when clicked on but this istn something I have manually done..

Ben
Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
- all saved correctly and filed under a sub system of changed images -
Could you explain what you mean by this please?
If you go to the iPhoto library in your pictures folder and look (DO not move or change anything within the iPhoto library) at the originals folder and at the modified folder what do you see? The originals folder should contain the original photos and the modified folder the latest (One only) edited version

  • Editing in iphoto, please help....new to mac

    Hi, I need to put text (text boxes) on many of the pics I take for work....I can't seem to do this on iphoto...any suggestions...PLEASE HELP.

    evassor:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can't do that in iPhoto. You will need to use a 3rd party editor from within iPhoto to accomplish that . Some of those that can do what you want are Photoshop Elements, Seashore (freeware), Graphicconverter and Pixelmator. You can find a number of possible candidates at VersionTracker.com by searching there for "image editor". Here's how you would use a 3rd party editor with iPhoto:
    Using 2 Image Editors in iPhoto
    If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and a 3rd party editor without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected the 3rd party editor as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". Then when you Control-click on an image, you can select "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu to edit in your selected editor.
    Happy Holidays
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making 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 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.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. 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.

    Please help me i've lost my phone as it was off when i lost it as it was flat, Please help. I was never registered with iTunes.

    You did not accidentally "back up" your phone. A backup is the process of making a copy of the data on a device for use in data recovery. What you did was "restore" to your phone a backup that had been previously made of someone else's device.
    You need to force the phone into recovery mode (google is your friend) and restore it as a NEW device. Then either restore it from YOUR backup, or set it up as a new phone.

  • PLEASE HELP I LOST 10 000+ SONGS!!!!

    i just posted in another thread sorry i couldnt start a new one a second ago. anyway...
    my computer froze up & went styupid about 1/2 hr ago & when i restarted my ipod has been wiped!!! ive lost 10 000 songs! please tell me i can get them back!
    ive tried restarting the ipod with select/menu button, didnt do anything. whenn use the ipod itself it says i have no songs or videos but my photos have stayed on there. also when i try to restore it on the computer it says i have 10Gb left which leads me to believe the songs are still on there & something just went wrong. please help it will take me years to get all these songs some were from very rare albums.

    Most of your sources are illegal; friends, LimeWire, etc... Anyhow, try first updating your iPod's firmware; iPod Updater - Version 1.1.1. If that doesn't work, restore your iPod with that same updater. Restoring your iPod will erase all the files on your iPod. You'll have to put all the files on your iPod back on your computer. Check out the following programs...
    PodUtil
    YamiPod
    Both will rip files from your iPod, and place them in a specified folder on your computer.

  • Please help I lost all my messages from E71

    I have a big problem with my NOKIA E71
    This is the second time I lost all my messages  and my Mail Box.
    The story is : when I was chatting using MSN messenger on my E71
    The connections failed   many times so I restarted my E71, suddenly after restart
    I did not find any messages or any emails in my Inbox and Mailbox , the second problem is the design of lock on E71 screen was changed to white circle  form however before that it has a rectangular form.
    Is the problem with the software or with my card memory because I used to save all my massages on memory card?
    Please help me   
    Notice : I had upgraded my E71 software to the version 300.21.012 from
     3 months ago.
     thanks

    My E71  also experienced the same problem. It lost all text messages, emails and some folders on the memory card. Will someone from Nokia please tell us what is happening.

  • PLEASE HELP  I lost my phone. My new SIM is here. I also have a new laptop that my old phone was never connected to. Is there anyway I can retrieve my old contacts?

    Please help. I lost my i phone 4 and have now received my new SIM. My friend has kindly lent me her old i phone 3 until I get another phone. The problem is that I got a new laptop at Christmas and never connected my old phone to it before I lost it.
    Ive downloaded i tunes onto the new laptop and connected the i phone 3 but all the info from my old phone is not there (numbers, music etc)
    Is there anyway I can retrieve the info and transfer it to the i p hone 3?

    Look. It doesn't matter how many times you repeat yourself. The answer is the same.  The only way you're going to find it is by getting up off your backside and looking for it.  Why you're so concerned, I'm not sure. If you find it, you will just have to turn it (or the replacement) over to the insurance company. Unless it's your intent to commit fraud...

  • Please help-i lost all my songs on my ipod

    Hi,
    I have an ipod photo which i have had for nearly two years. I had over 400 songs in it.
    i was listening to my ipod last night on my speakers, and this morning i have tried to listen to it again and all the songs have disappeared. my hard drive on my computer recently crashed and i had to download itunes again. i had plugged my ipod in it with no problems and listened to music after that but now evrything keeps telling me i have 3 songs on it( i don't even know what these songs are- i never loaded them on). I had a few photos on the ipod that are still there but no songs.
    Please help - where are my songs and can i get them back
    Thanks

  • Please help, Im lost

    Hi,
    I previously posted about having 3 ipods for my kids. Here is my problem, which I have read the posts and cannot figure out what to do in my own ignorance.
    My son has a nano, no problems whatsoever. My twins just got shuffles two days ago.
    Shuffles do not show up AT ALL, nothing, nada. My impression was that I did not need to install the cd that came with them since I have itunes etc. Maybe that is the problem? Oldest son is worried his files will be lost if I reinstall from new cds.
    Looking at our ipod files, all that is showing is nano. When I plug nano into the usb it shows up, shuffles do not show at all.
    What the heck do I do, I have twins who are waiting and losing patience on not being able to use their new ipods.
    Please someone help me?
    Thanks in advance!!

    Thanks,
    I called Apple, they had me do the msconfig, try every usb port I have restart, reset retry everything to no avail. I find it virtually impossible that 2 new shuffles are no good, but even Apple gave up and told me to send them back!
    I just reinstalled the itunes, BUT left the serial number for the nano on it when I reinstalled.
    I restarted the computer and nothing with the shuffles is working, still.
    Im really mad now, since I have twins over my shoulder waiting for the past three days to use their brand new shuffles, when their brother plugs in nano in the same usb it works fine.
    Thanks for your suggestions, but im more lost than ever. My last question is this, if I send them back, should I just go ahead and pay the difference and get them nanos? I hate to, since they are only 10 and the likelihood of them losing them is quite large, but what am I going to do? Plus I highly doubt that my ten year olds would listen to more than 120 songs.
    thanks again!!

  • Can't reinstall or use iphoto -- please help

    My problem with iPhoto started last week when it was recommended that I delete then reinstall iPhoto. Apparently I did something wrong. Now, whenever I try to open iPhoto it shuts down right away: it never opens thought the icon appears for a brief moment in the dock. I'll paste the error report at the bottom.
    In short, I need iPhoto to finish editing something due Wednesday, so I'm in a bind.
    I've put the original CD into my iMac and selected Application Bundles and I've tried to reinstall iLife. Neither work. My best guess is that I failed to delete something when I removed the original file from my computer and iPhoto is unable to open because of that. Can someone help me confirm this or give me some other suggestions on how to proceed?
    Thank you all in advance.

    To reinstall iPhoto you must delete the application and any file with "iPhoto" in the file name that resides in the HD/Library/Receipts folder. Then reinstall iPhoto from the disk it came on, run the latest updater and try again.
    You might also reinstall iLife Support 9.0.3 but do it first and see if you can launch iPhoto.

  • Please Help! Lost all Desktop Icons, Finder won't open & Cant shut off iMac

    Hi Mac Users,
    I need some serious help please and thank you --- my iMac with Mac OS X 10.5.6 has lost all its desktop icons, I can't open my finder (i've tried relaunching and rebooting my computer, which won't even do a hard shut off).  I can open apps on my dock and that is about it. 
    I did read in another discussion to delete the preference file, but I can't get access to the library?!?  And I also read to try doing a disk repair from the install disk and when I insert the disk into my iMac I don't get a pop-up window asking what i'd like to do and since the finder does not open I have to way to even start the disk up to attempt to do a disk repair???? 
    Any suggestions/recommendations are greatly appreciated.
    Sincerly,
    desperate iMac kt1611

    When you tried to do a disk repair from the instal disk, did you actually boot from the instal disk?  You should.
    Have you read the manual that came with your iMac and followed the appropriate steps?

  • IPhoto - Please Help Problem Sorting Photos

    Hi everyone,
    I imported pictures into iphoto that had been taken with 2 different cameras, but all have similar dates within a certain time span. I imported my own pictures on the 6. October and the other ones on the 8th October. Although the pictures have both been taken in September, iPhoto puts my photos in the October section and uses this as "date taken" and the other photos are sorted correctly.
    The Background is that I would like to do a slide show and it is very complicated to switch between the pictures and they are around 1000 in number.
    By the way, does anyone know an easy way to adopt the Ken Burns effect of iphoto and then edit text and a audio track in imovie? I was used to Magix Video, which is really simple in handling and now on the mac I think imovie takes such a long time for rendering.
    Thank you for your answers.

    Macbook 2 Ghz 1,25 GB Ram 60 GB HD   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Yes, you can take advantage of the Ken Burns effect for a slideshow in iMovie. Just export the slideshow you made in iPhoto, and then it will be a Quicktime movie that you can import into iMovie to add audio and text to it.
    If I understand correctly, your photos show a date in October instead of September. If you select all of the photos whose date you want to change, you can apply the date change to all of them at once. You can do this in the "information" window that toggles in the lower left corner of iPhoto.
    Please let me know if this helps or if you need further assistance.
