Iphoto faces gone after import from icloud

Hi I am using iphoto 9.6(910.29) in Yosemite and have around 8000 photos in the library and faces recognised for about 30 people so there are thousands of entries in the db.
After importing about 5 photos from icloud to prepare for a slide show at a funeral next week I went to id the faces on the imports and list of possible faces seemed to shift to my iphone contacts , not the list of people who's faces I already ID'd in iphoto
So the effect is I have lost the faces already identified and now only have three entries on my faces corkboard. I tried turing icloud shareing off and on to no effect.
Has anyone got any ideas on how to roll this back?

When I click on Faces, it's empty, the import from iPhoto forget to import faces?
Hello Kris,
How did you imort from iPhoto? If you import using the Aperture Apllication menu
     File -> Import -> iPh.oto Library
then all your Faces should be transferred from iPhoto.
Which of the two buttons in Aperture do you use to show your "Faces"? There is the "Faces" button in the Library panel and the "Faces" Button in the Toolbar. Both behave differently. The "Faces" button in the Library panel  will reveal all faces, whereas the "Faces" Button in the Toolbar will only show the faces detected in the in the currently selected item (folder, project). So it may appear that faces are missing, even if they are included in the Aperture Library.

  • Faces gone after import from iPhoto

    Also, I can start adding names to faces, but then after a while, I'm not asked to assign any more names and I only have 12 faces but there should be many many more?
    But the most important question remains : how to get my Faces from iPhoto?
    Thanks,
    Kris

  • IPhoto library chaos after importing from eksternal hard drive

    Hi
    I just got my first Mac Book pro and started to import my 15.000 photos which are stored on a consumer NAS-disk by via old windows PC. 
    The pictures are originally organized in folder by year and months.
    The result is absolutely chaos.....  The number of pictures is quadrupled.
    After (a looong time) I get one "event"-folder where I see my original files and one event (or folder?) named with a bunch of letter and numbers, ( ie "7gdaskk5klj3mjll54kj4lk6j4k4") where the same pictures are stored THREE times. It seems to be one version as the original, one low-resolution and one version with a different aspect or view.
    It's absolutely impossible to navigate through all this. I thought managing pictures was one of the advantages with Mac - I am not sure any longer
    Am I doing something wrong or is there a trick that can streamline my picture library?
    I have tried both to import with and without copying pictures to library. Same result.

    How are you browsing your imported photos? This looks like you were browsing the iPhoto library using the Finder and not using iPhoto's user interface in the main application window.
    When iPhoto imports photos it will store them in the iPhoto library and also additional files to speed up the browsing. It will create a preview of the edited version to share with the Media browser and a thumbnail to be used in the browser. All these files will be stored in subfolders of the library with cryptic names. Browse your photos using iPhoto's interface and don't access them directly in the Finder. You are risking to corrupt the library this way. After all, it is iPhoto's job to manage and to retrieve the photos for you.

  • Merge JPEG and RAW after import from iPhoto

    Hi,
    camera is set to shoot JPEG + RAW, iPhoto manages after import from camera as two separate files.
    I want to transition from iPhoto to Aperture.
    After importing from iPhoto into Aperture, is there any chance to merge the files in a way similar to how Aperture merges jpeg + raw when importing directly from camera?
    Thx
    Axel

  • All clips missing after import from camcorder!

    All clips are missing after import from camcorder - Canon ZR20.  For some tapes all clips are there, for others there are none.  All the files are there in the finder, but I don't know how to have them show up in Final Cut Pro X.
    Any suggestions?

    Ok - this is frustrating.  I have been importing my old miniDV tapes again into FCPX as I wasn't able to transfer all of these projects from iMovie - don't get me started...  After importing about 7 of the tapes the first 3 came in fine, but the last 4 didn't have any clips as I said in my original posting.  Now after restarting FCPX a couple of times all of a sudden the clips are all coming in!  Strange!  Guess I'm OK now.

  • If I delete all the pics n movies from camera roll.r they gonna b deleted from iCloud as well?n is photo stream connected to iCloud?

    Welcome to the Apple Community Hamza.
    Firstly, photo stream doesn't save videos, secondly, it may not have all your photos saved in it, it only keeps photos for 30 days.
    Back up your photos to a computer or online photo storage facility, before deleting them from your phone.

  • How do I delete the media after import from camera?

    How do I delete the media after import from camera?

    The usual procedure with video is you backup the card contents onto an archive drive. You import from the archive drive making a copy (professionals on set make two copies), and once the backups and import are verified, the card is reformatted in the camera.

  • Iphoto 9.5.1 imports from nikon D7100 are flat

    My iphoto 9.5.1 imports from nikon D7100 are flat, and the iPhoto controls do not seem to give as much control as earlier version i am upgrading from.

    Export the photo out of iPhoto via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export  menu option with Kind = Original to the Desktop and view them with Preview.  Do they look flat there?
    Are you shooting RAW or JPEGs?

  • TS4036 iPhone 4S shows no service after setup from iCloud

    New iPhone 4s is showing no service after backup from iCloud. I reset twice . Shows all apps but no phone service.

  • Where can I find un-recovered photos after restoring from Icloud

    Where can I find un-recovered photos after restoring from Icloud?

    They would only be stored in your backup.  If they didn't restore properly all you can do is try restoring the backup again.

  • When iPhoto '11 crashes after importing photos and videos, they are gone. How can I retrieve them?

    iPhoto '11 randomly crashes after importing/editing/organizing photos and videos. When it does, photos and videos that I've been working on are gone. Pictures taken with iOS devices can be retrieved if they are still in Photo Stream, but videos are gone. Is there anyway I can retrieve photos and pictures that are not saved before iPhoto crashes? Also, is there anyway to prevent it from crashing? It seems iPhoto '11 is doing this since the day 1 I started using it. Thank you.

    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library
    this should help with the crashes - it may or may not help with the missing videos

  • Iphoto jumbled after importing from dropbox

    I have a macbook air OSX 10.9.3
    iphoto 9.5.1
    dropbox (up to date)(2.8 GB)
    i have iphoto syncing with my dropbox, and camera uploads on for dropbox
    my dropbox was full, so i went online and deleted the photos that were duplicates
    later, i went on my iphoto and saw that the files were missing for a lot of my pictures. i figured that when i deleted files from dropbox online, they synced with my iphoto and deleted them from my computer.
    so, i restored my iphoto folder on dropbox to get the pictures back. then, i opened the iphoto library from my dropbox folder in Finder which caused pictures to begin importing back. I had to do this repeatedly because iphoto would only import a few pictures at once.
    Now the pictures are all jumbled - there are repeats for some but all my photos still have not downloaded. The Event names are long strings of letters and numbers, and people's individual faces from photos downloaded as separate photos.
    i downloaded my camera uploads to my computer then deleted that off my dropbox. dropbox still has tons of multiples of photos, and iphoto library is the only folder with pictures. i also don't have the pictures still on my phone because I deleted them after my last import (plugging in the cord to my computer).
    is there a quick way to clean this up? what should i have done differently? if i delete the faces and extra photos from my iphoto now will i mess anything up? what is a better way to back up your pictures?

    You can start over by trashing the iPhoto library, creating a new one and importing photos into it - this will have no connection to the photos in the original library
    and you need to purchase an external hard drive about 2 1/2 times the size of your main drive and start running Time Machine with its default settings so you have hourly backups available
    it is probably that you can start the new library with the masters folder from the corrupted library - it probably contains your photos organized by events according to how they were first imported

    "right click on your device in my computer" in itunes?
    i use the default automated import: when i plugin my iphone into my macbook air, it opens iphoto and imports the images.
