IPhoto had a question mark

I can not find iPhoto now. It had a question mark on it. I tried moving to another spot in the dock and mistakenly tossed it off the dock and it has disappeared. I can't find it anywhere. How do i get it back

in the finder in the applications folder do you have the iPhoto application? If so drag it to the Dock to recreate the alias there

IPhoto has a question mark over it. Wont open! Help?

iPhoto has a question mark over it. Wont open! It is completely inaccessible. How can i restore this to my computer and get my pics back?

iPhoto has a question mark over it.
You mean in the Dock? Then the Dock icon is no longer linked to the application.
Did you upgrade MacOS X, so iPhoto is no longer compatible?
If you moved or deleted iPhoto, reinstall it. It will depend on your iPhoto version and MacOS X version, how to reinstall.
If your profile signature ""OS X (10.6.8)" is still valid, reinstall iPhoto from your system install disks, if iPhoto came preinstalled on your Mac, or from your iLife install disks.
If you already upgraded to Yosemite, you can reinstall iPhoto from the App Store.

ICal had a question mark on it

I couldn't open iCal. It had a question mark on it. I tried moving to another spot in the dock and mistakenly tossed it off the dock and it has disappeared. I can't find it anywhere.

Use Pacifist to extract it from the Mac OS X 10.5 DVD, and then install the 10.5.8 combo updater.

No, I can't see, to see it. It was working ok a week ago. Do you think I could have accidentally have deleted it from the applications folder?

My imovie had a question mark over it after updating and now imovie is gone.

After updating my imac the imovie icon had a question mark superimposed on it, after clicking on it it disappeared and now imove is gone, how do I retrieve it?

What did you update from and to and how old is the version of iMovie you have?
Sounds like the iMovie you have there is a PPC app which is no longer supported in Lion or Mountain Lion. If that is the case you will need to purchase a new version of the app.

IPhoto email shows question mark instead of email template

I sent some photos using iPhoto last night, i have gmail account i use to send photos. I learned after i had emailed the photos through iPhoto my receipts received the email with a question mark instead of the iPhoto template. I tried sending a couple to myself and my wife (she has hotmail if it matters) but all of them showed the question mark i attached a photo below. Any help in fixing this would be great.
Thanks

probably not right format....
i think that the iphone only supports .jpg or whatever but i am not 100% on that

IPhoto disappeared. Question mark in its place. Help

Help! My iPhoto application disappeared and there is only a question mark in its place. I do not have the disks to restore. what do I do??

If yhou have Time Machine running on your Mac go to the Applications folder, enter Time Maching, go back till iDVD is there and restore it.
Otherwise you can contact Apple and for about $10 get replacement disks for hyour Mac. Lastly, you'll have to purchase iLife 09 and do a custom install of iDVD from it.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

Some pictures open in iphoto as a question mark

Some of the photos in iPhoto open as a question mark. There was an Apple fact sheet out a couple years back on how to correct this problem but I can't find it on my computer. Can anyone lead me in the right direction? Thanks!

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 Library Permissions.

How old is this Mac? It is also possible that the hard drive has failed. If nothing works, take it to the  Retail Store

Hi, my iphoto had a transparent ? mark on it and wouldn't open so I dragged it onto the desk top and now it has disappeared... I cannot find it anywhere in my finder, it seems to be gone, please help!

You have one and possibly two problems.
First problem you tried to open the iPhoto library with iTunes and appeared to have set iTunes as the default app for iPhoto Libraries. That isn;t going to work.
To fix that select the iPhoto library in the Finder and do a File->Get Info. In the middle of the Info window you'll see Open With dropbox. Click on that and select iPhoto, then select the Change All button
This will get iPhoto back as the default app to open iPhoto Libraries.
Double click the library now and if nothing else is wrong iPhoto will open the library. If it does do as Michael wrote and go to the Applications folder and drag iPhoto to the dock to remake the shortcut.
However since you started this thread by saying that the iPhoto shortcut in the dock had a question mark on it it is possible that iPhoto is missing from your Applications folder. If it is post back.

Question mark in mountian lion launch control were app icon should be

I have just purchased a new mac book pro which came with OSX lion installed. As a result of that I did a time machine backup from my old macbook to the new one. All went well and everything was updaed. I then installed OSX Mountain lion. It said on compleation that all was well. All dock items were there, everthing open and closed from the dock, however when I opened launch pad the following apps had a question mark icon instead of the app icon. They were MOUNTAIN LION.CALENDER,CONTACTS,NOTEPAD. They all launch from the dock but not from launch pad, anyone have any ideas whats wrong.

I cannot find it in the applications folder on those accounts, just on the main account
Safari is supposed to be in Macintosh HD --> Applications
If Safari is not in that folder, move it there.
It should not be in Users --> yourusername -->Applications

How do I get rid of the question marks in front of my images in LR5 so that I can edit those images?

My images were automatically transferred from Photoshop Elements 10 to my new Lightroom 5, but many images had a
question mark in front of them in LR5. I cannot open those images to edit them. How do I remove the question marks.
Thanks.

Apps replaced with question marks?

I just bought an iPhone 5s from ebay. It arrived with a US plug and US instructions even though i live in the UK and the sender was from the UK. I plugged it into my mac computer and it loaded up on iTunes then instantly chrome had to force quit and I had to report the problem. I then restarted the mac and when I logged in, all the apps were unaccessable and had large question marks where the app icon would have been before. I can still access my files and safari however iTunes, app store, chrome etc have all disappeared. I have read that they could have been deleted or moved and to relocate them back to the dock via applications folder however the apps are not in the applications folder or anywhere on the computer after doing a search. Please help!

I would return the phone for credit or contact eBay and claim the product was not as advertised.
As an aside, I would never buy a used electronic device (iPhone or anything else) on eBay (or anywhere else) unless I knew the seller personally.

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
