IPhoto didn't create a new event for my last import

I imported some pics from my DSLR via an SD card just now.  The photos are visible if I select "Last Import", but not otherwise.  iPhoto has always defaulted to creating a new event each time I import (one for each date on the imported photos).  I haven't changed any settings whatsoever, but I can't see these photos anywhere except "Last Import".
Any clue why??  And how to fix it?
Tks!

If the Photos are under 'Last Import' or 'Last N Months' then they are in the Library somewhere, just not where you are expecting them to be. We know this as both Last Import and 'Last N Months' are not places, just listings of elements in the the Library.
The two most common reasons that they can't be found is either an incorrect date on the camera or the Sorting (View Menu -> Sort Photos - or Sort Events, as appropriate) has changed.
Quick route to find them: Right-click on one of the images in Last Import and select 'Show Event'. This will bring you to the image in the Library.

  • How do I create a new event entry for a specific calendar?

    In my iMac Calendar app, I have created a few calendars for different functions.    But every time I try to create a new event entry for a specific calendar, the app seems to prefer a different calendar instead by default.   I cannot enter events in other calendars.   Is there a way to do this?   In previous versions, I would highlight the particular calendar I wanted to work with and the entry would go into that calendar.   Thanks!

    You don't.  Moments in Photos are the new Events, i.e. groupings of photos sorted by date taken.
    When the iPhoto Library was first migrated to Photos there was a folder created in the sidebar titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events (which are now Moments) are represented by an album in that folder. To open the sidebar if it's not already open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
    There's a way to simulate events in Photos.
    When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N.  Name it as desired.  It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
    When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window.
    The downside to the simulation is that the Albums/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title. But they can also be sorted manually, either in the sidebar or in the folder's window at the right.
    Ask Apple for more sorting options in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

  • Why do my events change in the day view, when I create a new event? (iCal for iPad 2)

    Every time I create a new event in the day view in iCal on iPad, the other events (which I created before for the same day) change their starting and/or their ending time.
    Please help!

    monkeyde,
    You are getting entagled in the two confusing meanings of the term pixels, namely as a unit identical to points and equalling 1/72 inch, and the basic component of raster images (and effects).
    You can read on in this very recent thread:
    Is there a way to get Illustrator to know how many pixels are in an inch?

  • When I create a new event how do I select a video on iPhoto to import into the event.

    I am using iMovie 10.0.5. I create a new event and I want to import a video which I can only find on iPhoto. I then have to open iPhoto and it loads everything rather than just the one video I want. Is there a better way of doing this does anyone know. Thanks

    is there anyway to stop iPhoto 9.6 creating a new unnamed album within a named album when I drag a new photo into the named album.  for example:  There is a album called Fred.  I have a new photo of Fred imported into the Last import Folder.  I wanted to drag it into the album called Fred but iPhoto creates a new unnamed album within Fred.
    Any ideas please.  I am using Yosemite 10.1.1
    Many thanks Jaz Eilles

    Sounds like you have a folder with an album named fred inside of it.  Folders can only hold other folders, albums, slideshows, etc. but not just photos.  So you must be sure to drop the photo directly onto the album titled fred that resides inside that folder otherwise it will create a new album.
    So expand the folder so the fred album is visible and drop the new photo onto the album.

  • How do i create a new Event in the new Photos?

  • How can I create a new event without it automatically being an all-day event?

    When I create a new event in iCal, it automatically creates an all-day event.  (By create, i mean double-clicking in the month view.)  Is there any way to change it back to hourly when you create an event, like in Snow Leopard?  Although this is easy to get around, it's just annoying as I rarely create all day events.

    I was really frustrated by this change in Lion as I prefer to use the month view and I hate the way it defaults to an all day event.  So I was very pleased to find this solution in the Mac OS X Hints.  Simply type "Dinner at 6 pm" and it enters "Dinner" at 6 pm for one hour.  If you want anything other than an hour, put "6 - 8 pm" (or whatever period you want.  Brilliant.  Just wish Apple figured out a way to tell me that without having to search the communities here for an answer.
    Thanks Ferd II.

  • Can't create a new event in iCal

    Odd thing is happening in iCal when creating a new event, clicking on the plus button creates a new calendar and not an event.
    When clicking on the day and from the pop up menue clicking new event I get an error message relating to mail?
    Doesn't happen all the time but very frustrating when in does. Is there a fix?

    This is normal. You can create a new event by double-clicking within the day in any of the views (in Day or Week view double-click on the time for the event): select the calendar you want to add to in the sidebar first.

  • Creating a new Event in event structure

    Hi
    Can i create any event on my own in the event structures? For instance, one can always find the key down and key up events in the structures!!
    But what if i want to create a new event such as add/remove hardware in it? Is it possible?

    Hi Somil,
    see the attached picture as an example.
    If you use LabVIEW 2009, then you should be able to insert the picture into your vi, to get the code.

  • Steps to creat a new event in Calendar

    Are there guides for Built-In Apps...or all Apps for that matter?
    Seems pretty basic but how is a new event entered into Calendar...what are the steps?

    Open the calender app.  Go to the day you want and double touch it.  (depending on what view you are using, this will open up the day).   At the bottom right of the screen there is a little+ sign. Touch it to create a new event.

    The files that weren't inside the media folder on the original machine need to be copied over to exactly the same paths as they had on the source machine. See this thread for an ongoing discussion of a similar problem. See also this post on migrating the iTunes library.

  • When I create a new event in my calendar in my local time zone, my invitees receive it in GMT. Why how can this be fixed?

    When I create a new event in my calendar in my local time zone, my invitees receive it in GMT. Why how can this be fixed?

    Greetings jsubacus,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that your calendar events are appearing in GMT on your calendar in Yosemite. This was a fix in iOS 8.2 for iCloud calendars. I would suggest that you make sure all of your devices are updated to the current software release to help resolve the issue.
