IPhoto Events disappeared when doing a Backup

I copied my entire iPhoto library to a folder on my desktop . I then dragged the folder to my external LaCie harddrive. Although the photos copied to the LaCie, the Events in my iPhoto libary are gone.
39 Events for almost 5000 photos.
How can I retrieve my Events? Thank You.

After making a Time Machine automatic back up of my G5 to a LaCie harddisk I also lost al my events in IPhoto. It's the first auto back up since installing IPhoto9. Photo mode now shows all 20.000 pics in one single event. All the preferences in IPhoto are set oke as far as I know.
Anybody there with the solution?

Restore an individual iphoto event from a time machine backup in Lion

How can I restore an individual iphoto event from a time machine backup using Lion.
Thanks

If you know the file names of the photos you want to restore you can use Find Any File to search your Time Machine hard drive for that file. When it is found you can drag it from the search window to the Desktop and import into iPhoto from there.
Due to the nature of the Time Machine backup structure each search can take a while. The search results window will look like this:

When doing catalog backup get message " your system is low on disk space, and elements organizer cannot perform the operation. If create a catalog with 20 pictures backup works OK. backing up to a 1TB external drive. Have 16705 pictures in catalog. Total disk space for pictures is 192 MB. Why am I getting message?

Total disk space for pictures is 192 MB.
Do you really mean MB (megabytes) or GB (gigabytes) ?
Even if its GB, the free space may be enough, depending on your files size, especially with videos or raw files.
When you start the backup process, it first shows you the total size of the catalog.

Restore an individual iphoto event from a time machine backup!

Can you restore an individual iphoto event from a time machine backup or do you have to restore an entire library?
Whilst deleting some old photos from my library i seem to have accidentally deleted an entire event of photos. I regularly backup my iMac using TIme Machine, so was hoping that i could restore this one event. Is this possible and if so how do you do it?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Greetings Martyn,
You can restore events from TimeMachine if you like. Read here.
Rather than clicking on individual pictures, you click on "Events", highlight the events you want, and then click restore.
Hope that helps.

Some iCal events disappear when in week view

Hello all,
I recently had a double agenda booking. Today I found out why:
In week view some iCal events disappear... When i switch to month view, they reappear.
So, depending on the view i have open time slots. Not very reliable.
Anyone know what i can do to return to solid bookings again?
Best regards
Fred

Same problem here. I just imported everything from my old MacBook to my new one using Time Machine. My events appear in the Month view but not in the Week or Day views. So I went back to my old MacBook, created an iCal backup file, and emailed it to myself. Opened it on the new machine, restored from the backup file, and . . . same thing!
Very strange!! I need my daily events to be visible. Any help out there?

Hi,
You need archive log to do database restore to a point in time. But for that you need to have level 0 backup (FULL BACKUP) of the database. Oracle then usage the FULL backup and archive log to roll forward to the point in time you want to recover the database. It looks like you do not have FULL backup as well. So my advice will be to delete these archive logs and when you get a change. point the archive log destination to another directory and restart the database. Then take a complete Level 0 FULL backup.

Defer log shipping and RMAN-08137 message when doing archivelog backup

Hello,
in a Primary & Dataguard scenario in which we set to DEFER the log shipping to the Dataguard during a high impact process done in the Primary, we receive the message "RMAN-08137: WARNING: archive log not deleted as it is still needed" when doing archive log backup with rman.
Is it the expected behaviour due to the DEFER status with the Dataguard? or even in this scenario we might we able to delete the logs and therefore we have to look more in deep to find our problem?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,
Had a look on v$archived_log and found the archivelogs that are not deleted and the state for them is
DEST_ID=1
STANDBY_DEST=NO
ARCHIVED=YES
APPLIED=NO
as http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B12037_01/server.101/b10755/dynviews_1015.htm says , they are all Local, were archived and there is no apply needed for them as they are not defined to go to the StandBy Database.
Therefore, why can not still archive them? How can we check if they had been processed by a Streams process?
Regards

All my previous events disappear when I import new photos into iphoto?

Each time I import photos from my Canon digital camera into my iphoto, the new import is the only event that shows. I can't access any menues or events in iphoto; when I open iphoto from the dock, only my most recent event opens. To import photos from my camera, I open iphoto, connect the USB cord to my camera and the USB port on my computer, and click import. The next time I open my iphoto, nothing is there except my last import. When this happened a few weeks ago, I looked at the discussions and found out how to rebuild the library, which I did, but I can't do that every time I import photos. What is happening? What is wrong with my iphoto?

It sounds like you have a damaged database.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
As to why you have repeated corruption - Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
If you're running a Managed library, then it's the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing
If you're running a Referenced Library, then you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced and iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing.

What order are iPhoto events sorted when synced?

When I sync the last xx months from iPhoto to my iPhone via iTunes they certainly aren't alphabetical and they are in no sort of chronilogical sorting when I look in iPhoto. Does anyone know how sorting is decided there in the Events album in the photos app? I'm on iOS 7.0.3 FYI.

So, turingtest2 has it exactly right... Unwatched movies view is sorted by Album Artist. So here's a nice little fix for that... you can go through and manually copy the Name of the movie into the Album Artist field, but if you have a lot of movies in this category, it will be tedious. A better option, is to go to www.dougscripts.com, and download the This Tag, That Tag applet. You can find a link here. You can then select ALL of your unwatched movies, run the applet, and elect to copy the movie Name into the Album Artist field. Boom! And since Doug has done such an awesome job of saving you a bunch of time and effort, throw him a little donation.
Peace,
Jared

Deleted iPhoto events reappearing when syncing with devices

Events deleted from Iphoto and all Photo Streams on devices reappearing in itunes when I sync my devices. Using iOS 8.1.3 and an Iphone 5S and Ipad 2.

Either you need to repair your iPhoto Library, or iTunes is using a different iPhoto Library than you checked. Where i your current iPhoto Library stored? In your Pictures folder or on an external drive? Do you have a second iPhoto Library somewhere on your Mac or on an external drive? Maybe a connected backup drive?
If you have nowhere a second iPhoto Library, try the iPhoto Library First Aid Tools.
But, make a backup of your iPhoto Library, before you proceed.
Which version of iPhoto do you have? In iPhoto '11 do the following:
To launch the "First Aid Tools" hold down the options-command keys ⌥⌘ while double clicking your iPhoto Library.
Keep the keys held down firmly until the First Aid panel appears.
Then select "Rebuild database" from the First Aid pane.
The may take a while for a large library. Run also the "Repair permissions" option.

Calendar events disappear when attempting to edit or delete

I have two calendars set up on my iPhone 4s. I use a gmail account for my personal calendar, and I have my work calendar set up through exchange. The problem I have is only with my work account. Whenever I attempt to edit or delete an event from my work calendar, all the events associated with that calendar disappear. I am able to view them again by going into my calendar settings and choosing to sync only two weeks; however, any edits that I made did not save. I can then go back into settings and select sync all events. But if I try to edit or delete an event the same thing happens again. It is quite cumbersome taking these extra steps to view my calendar entries, and the calendar is basically useless if I cannot edit events.
I have deleted and reinstalled the exchange account several times, and this has not fixed the problem. I do not use iCloud to sync; everything goes directly through my exchange account.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have missed appointments for work, thinking that the blank calendar was accurate for that day.

With Quicktime Pro and Quicktime Player 7 the entire audio track can be turned off.
With iMovie 10 the audio track can be separated from the video clip
and the sound reduced to zero.
