IPhoto-Lost Library of Images

Am new to G4 and have now lost my 3000 images loaded into iPhoto library. How does one find a lost Photo Library.

Bic Ford:
Look in your Pictures folder and see if there are more than on iPhoto Library folder. The second may be named "iPhoto Library_1". If so then launch iPhoto with the Option key depressed and, when asked, locate and select the "iPhoto Library" folder. That should be your original folder.
If there is only one iPhoto Library folder in your Pictures folder check in the Originals folder to make sure your image files are there. They should be. If that's the case then the database file, Library6.iPhoto, has been corrupted. You probably will have to start over with a new library. Here's how:
1 - move the current iPhoto Library folder to the desktop.
2 - move its Originals folder to the desktop.
3 - launch iPhoto and it will ask you to either create a new library or find one. Select a new one.
4 - drag the Originals folder into the open iPhoto window. This will import your photos and give you a new library with the same rolls as you had in the first library. However the roll dates may be different.
Do you Twango?

  • Iphoto lost library

    My Iphoto lost the connection to the library. Suddenly I can only see iclouds pictures and imagines of the other happening maps.
    Can somebody support me what to do. Theire are approx 8000 picture. In the finder the iphoto library tells that their are 60 Gb, but I can´t connect to them.

    Simple solution is to restore from your back up.
    However, I've never heard of any error message that says your entire iPhoto Library no longer exists. Can you give us the exact wording you get?

  • 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

  • Evelyn question:    I Photo, I lost all my images and am getting nothing up on preview or iphoto.  I did drage the icons to the bottom of my monitor.

    Evelyn -  question:    I Photo, I lost all my images and am getting nothing up on preview or iphoto.  I did drag the icons to the bottom of my monitor from
    applications and nothing happened.

    Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

  • I seem to have lost my original images and unwanted images have moved into my library. I couldn't access lightroom 3 as usual and was provided a default option which I clicked. I ely heavily on lightroom and have spent countless hours fixing images, ple.

    Hi, I seem to have lost my original images and unwanted images have moved into my library. I couldn't access lightroom as I would normally and was provided with a default option which I clicked. This all occured while I was trying to free up space on my computer while viewing saved images on my hard drive, which are linked up directly to a photoshop elements program. Please tell me this can be fixed.....

    Hi there,
    I don't believe I did move or delete my catalogue. Where can I look for my catalog file. Why does my Lightroon now contain more images and ones I don't want on it, without my physically importing them?
    Thanks
    Pablo

  • Lost iphoto 6 library

    I have iphoto 6.0.6 and just tried importing some photos off a CD copied from a friend's Mac running Leopard. A box appeared saying the photos were not compatible with my iphoto version and I should update it but there are no iphoto updates when I check for them.
    Then a box appeared saying do I want to upgrade my photos to the newer version and (foolishly) I clicked it and it took several minutes to 'convert' my library.
    Now when I open iphoto there is nothing in it and it says I should update iphoto; but still there are no updates available.
    My pictures folder has a iphoto6.library file (white) but I cant open it.
    What I want to do is reconvert my pictures back to their original format. I do not want to upgrade the rest of my computer to Leopard.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    Here is a recap TD's advice
    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 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 iPhoto 6 library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    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 on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll 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.
    It appears that you may have misunderstood part of these instructions
    When moving the iphoto6library file (a white icon with nothing apparently in it) onto the desktop and then back into iphoto a box comes up saying it's a unrecognized format. Whatever happened changed the format of the photos; they weren't corrupted.
    There is nothing about moving the library6.iPhoto file and bringing it back into iPhoto - the library6.iPhoto file is a file within the iPhoto library that describes the iPhoto database and there is nothing you can (or should) do with it
    To create a new iPhoto 6 library (Not to be confused with the library6.iPhoto file discussed above) you follow the instructions starting at 3.
    Is there a system restore like in Windows to a previous date that might work?
    Only if you have a backup to restore
    I dont really want to buy ilife if I can avoid it but I will if its the only way to get my photos back (and yes I should have made a back up)
    Purchasing a later version of iLife will not fix anything - your library is corrupted and you must fix that for things to work - there is nothing wrong with your iPhoto application

  • Iphoto 11 does not recognise iphoto 9 library stored on external hard drive

    Hi anyone,
    Been tormented for a full week now where I have "lost" nearly 100Gb of phots. It is driving me insane! I have tried all the possible remedies - the Comd Option functions on iphoto start up, the rebuild, the rebuild on iphot manager, changing the "show package contents" options - but nothing.
    The problem. I recently upgraded my mac and with it the software - going from iphoto 09 to iphoto 11.  I had been using a smaller library (15Gb) stored on my Mac which migrated fine. The issue was when I tried to connect into my external library that things went haywire.  The photographs on the external harddrive show as black squares on iphoto 11, sometimes it briefly flashes the underneath image, but none of them are able to open. The migrated images are fine.
    I've tried to then create copies of my external hard drive library  but even when I play around with these copies the problem persists. I am terrified that I've corrupted the parent. The external library still opens fine on my old machine on iphoto 09. When I look at "show package contents" under preview on the iphoto 11 mac, the images come up fine so I know they are (at least the majority, there seems to be some phots missing!). 
    I am at the very limit of my technical ability and sanity. I don't have a time machine backup, my parent library isn't fully backed up so if I revert back to a stored master I will lose a couple of months of photos which included last summers Olympics.
    The other threads don't seem to cover this exact problem - has anyone else suffered? Any remedies would be gratefully appreciated and would move me down the stress ladder by at least a couple of rungs. 
    Kind regards,
    John
    iphoto 11 iphoto11  iLife11 iLife_11 iphoto09 iphoto_09 iphoto9 external hard drive corrupted blank photographs disappeared

    Well here's the first problem:
    The drive is in MS-DOS (FAT) format (a 500Gb Lacie).
    iPhoto needs to have the Library sitting on disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Users with the Library sitting on disks otherwise formatted regularly report issues including, but not limited to, importing, saving edits and sharing the photos. So, get the Library onto an appropriately formatted disk.
    If you're thinking of reformatting that disk, remember that doing so will erase it, and so make sure you back it up first.
    I would try open the Library from an appropriately formatted disk. If the issues persist them try the rebuild with Library Manager again.

  • IPhoto 08 - Library Corrupt?  Pictures start vanishing...

    I have my iPhoto 08 library on a backup external drive that is connectd via FW800 to my G5 Tiger...my other machines are using Leopard now.
    Recently something happened with my Macmini (Leopard OS) where iPhoto just froze stating it needed to rebuild thumbnail cache...After leaving it running for over 8 hours and seeing the progress bar was not moving I rebooted the Macmini and tried again...This didn't help and it did it again. I forced quit iPhoto and checked on my G5. iPhoto loaded fine so I rebooted all my machines and shut down my eternal drive.
    When I rebooted and tested iPhoto on all machines it appeared to be working but with a new bonus feature...Photos are now vanishing when I scroll around or select different events. The photos are displayed for a quick second and then they are replaced by a grey/blank outline that has an "!" if you select them.
    Have I lost all these photos now? I am afriad to launch iPhoto again for fear of more photos of my son vanishing.
    I checked the iPhoto properties and the file size is still what it should be (around 32gb) I also see the originals and modified folders within the package contents do in fact have a lot of photos in them.
    Any suggestions?

    What happened when you rebooted the mini from the freeze was the database file for the library got damaged. Look inside the iPhoto LIbrary package and confirm that the Originals folder contains your image files. Unless you have a recent backup copy of the library or the library's database file, Library6.iPhoto, you'll have to start over with a new library and import the Originals folder from the old library as follows:
    Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
    Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    Open the library package like this.
    Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library if you have the Finder checkbox unchecked in the Events preference pane.
    In the future I suggest you try the tip at the end of my signature. You'll have to modify the Automator application to look for the library on the external HD. It's designed to look in the Pictures folder.
    Do you Twango?
    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.

  • Iphoto lost my original files

    I have several folders in iPhoto, the one in question, I have opened several times, and have edited some photos. For reason unknown, I tried to open, and enlarge a photo to full screen image to view it, and I suddenly could not. I got a warning that iPhoto could not locate the original file. I neither deleted or anything else with these files other than some editing, they are recent pics.I can still share the pics in iPhoto, but can no longer open the files to full image to view. My concern is that iPhoto lost my originals, and it could happen to my other folders. I did backup my photos, but when I redownload to iPhoto, I get the same warning of "original files lost"? What can I do to fing the originals on my MAC book, and how to prevent in the future?

    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

  • IPhoto rebuilding library freezes

    Two days ago I was sending images from iPhoto over Messages. I sent about 50 images fine in groups of ten. When sending the last four (or five?) images the images stayed on the top of all other applications. I quit iPhoto and the images stayed visible. I shutdown all applications (quit, not force quit) and rebooted my MBP. When I started iPhoto again all my images were gone. I shutdown iPhoto and tried the option+command key sequence when starting iPhoto. The first two options, "repair permissions" and "rebuild thumbnails", did nothing. The third option, repair database, returned my images but lost all my "faces". When I choose "rebuild database" my MBP freezes when iPhoto reaches the "restoring faces" step.
    A few weeks ago I had a freezing problem that eventually turned out to be some software (Sierra Wireless) while "cleaning up" my MBP. I haven't removed any software recently. This freezing seems to be isolated to iPhoto.
    - I have moved "~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist" and "~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist.lockfile" out of the way.
    - I have deleted/uninstalled iPhoto from Applications and reinstalled from the AppStore.
    - I have downloaded "iPhoto Library Manager", but have not tried it yet.
    What to try next?
    Mike

    - Photos was unchecked in iCloud preferences
    - moved iLifeAsset Management out of the way
    - booted
    - started iPhoto with option+control, selected "rebuild library" (fourth option)
    - iPhoto hung again when "restoring faces"

  • Iphoto lost links?

    I have been using iPhoto for a long time and have about 10K pictures there at present.  Recently links seem to be lost to certain images and although I find them and relink, next time iPhoto is opened, I get messages that (the same) images can't be found. Has anyone had a similar experience and found a solution? I have tried "cleaning" my photo library and deleting albums and pictures. Using Mac Pro with Lion (10.7.4) and iPhoto 9.2.3.

    Option 1
    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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 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. .

  • How can i share my iphoto 11 library with another user on the same mac?

    hi
    i recently added a new user account for my wife on my macbook pro. now we want to share the existing iphoto 11 library, which is on my account, with the new user account. i'm using os x lion.
    many thanks!
    davide from sitzerland

    For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
    What you mean by 'share'.
    If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
    If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
    Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
    (You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
    In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
    However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

  • Iphoto 6 : library structure

    Greetings ;
    I'm new to mac. I've been reading thru the various posts and haven't found a matching situation at least described this way.
    i've done what i now know what not to do by somehow through finder altering something in the IPhoto Library.
    This is a finder view of the 2006 library structure:
    Iphoto 6 Library
    Data (this i understand to be thumbnails)
    2006
    rolls 1 - 13 exist (each populated)
    Originals
    2006
    rolls 1 - 13 exist (each populated)
    Iphoto 6 was used to import photos from Canon.
    The photos were viewable from within Iphoto 6.
    Now they are not.
    While in Iphoto 6
    Library - has some photos in it
    Early Photos (no photos)
    2003 (no photos)
    2004 (no photos)
    2005 (some photos)
    2006 (no photos)
    Last 14 Months (changed via preferences)
    Last 12 Months
    Trash
    The good thing is Rolls 1 thru 13 (data and original) contain all the images per each download via iPhoto 6 (even tho they are repeats as i was experiencing download problems with my camera and repeated the download about 8 times hence rolls 6 - 13 are partial duplicates of each other.
    i created a duplicate of the iPhoto Library in the desktop for now.
    by the various posts i attempted the command option iphoto rebuild and selected the all options - it completed ok but the rolls 1-13 in the HD file structure are not corresponding while in IPhoto app.
    While in iPhoto app:
    i see no rolls and the 2006 year is completely empty.
    likewise the 2005 year and the library have some pictures in them but there is no corresponding 2005 or library in the finder view of both the data and the original.
    The Finder view of the structure only shows 2006 (rolls 1 -13) for both data and original.
    Further : I'm not positive of the sequence here as i'm new to mac and did what i thought was ok but now know otherwise. I created albums and copied/moved (not sure) photos from the library to the albums then moved/ copied from the library to the iPhoto trash (most of which are still there).
    I can only tell you where things are now and not exactly how they got this way.
    So...
    1) So How do I sync up the 13 rolls viewable in finder with something that makes sense while in iPhoto ?
    2) What did the rebuild do for me as I hoped it would solve the 13 roll phenomenon?
    The per import from camera creating a new roll within iPhoto as I now understand is the way it operates is where i'd like to get back to so I can at least start from ground zero.
    Thanks for the assistance.
    wb

    restuart:
    Isn't the cache folder titled "iPod Photo Cache"? It has to do with adding photos to an iPod. Even if you don't sync photos to an ipod there'll be that folder if you've ever connected an iPod.
    The Data folder contains the thumbnail files for each photo.
    Regarding the year folder with the old structure, I believe it's like our appendix, no longer needed. I had a 2005 folder with just photo in it. I moved it to the desktop and opened iPhoto, went to the roll that had that picture in and it was there and useable. I've since trashed that 2005 folder. Give it a try. and see if there's any problems with removing it. Make a backup of the library folder beforehand just in case.
    There is some sort of bug with the roll dates. When you import an old folder of files it uses one of the modified dates instead of the captured date on many of the rolls. I haven't figured out how it determines which date on which photo to use. It's easy to change the date of the roll so it is located in the proper chronological position among the other rolls.
    The current folder structure is a result of many requests to get iPhoto in line with other more professional image management applications. iPhoto's new capability of being able to use alias files instead of copying the entire file into it's new folder system allows it to be able to use soruce image files that are on another HD/CD /DVD and if the source files are not mounted iPhoto can still see the thumbnails, make and manipulate albums but cannot edit or work with books, slideshow or calendars. Once the photos come back on line iPhoto can use them again. This way users can develop their own folder/cataloging system and iPhoto will construct it's library in accordance with it.

  • Iphoto unable to import images from card or from desktop

    A recent update to the operating system for my imac with Maverick has rendered my iphoto incapable of importing images, creates a mirror shift of the frontpage as it is opened up and requires a long time for iphoto to open. When I try to import a photo from the desktop or from a card the program spins into dysfunction and I am forced to force quit. Program functionality seems to be impaired as I look for images, select, etc. Permissions verified and fixed in Utility disk. Restart computer several times.....I would be grateful for assistance. Kind regards to the community.....HP

    Well that suggests the issue is with the main Library. So
    Option 1
    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 Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.

  • Newly imported pictures not appearing in iPhoto '08 Library

    So, while I was importing a whole slew of photos today, iPhoto became unresponsive (I think because of two RAW images I inadvertantly left on the camera).  I had to force quit iPhoto and when I relaunched it, none of the photos imported show up in my library.  They are available if I browse "All Images," but if I try to drag and drop any of them into the iPhoto Library it says they're already there. 
    Advice?

    Never access photos that are managed by iPhoto in your All Images search. It's a good way to damage your Library.
    Surefire fix: restore from back up.
    Other than that:
    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 <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> 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 *iPhoto 08* 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.
