Iphoto quit unexpectedly and I lost all the pictures I downloaded

Iphoto quit unexpectedly and I lost all of the pictures I had downloaded and one I edited.
They were all gone
I had just did the major update that morning
Has anyone else been experiencing problems like this?

Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS.  So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • My previous ipod touch quit working and I lost all the songs I had purchased on it. How can I recover these songs if I can't sync the iPod?

    I had a 1st Gen iPod Touch that quit working on me. I had 30-40 songs on it that I had purchased from the iTunes App that I didn't sync back to my computer. How do I recover those lost songs so I can put them on my new iPod?

    You buy one and only one download.  It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
    You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

  • I was working with iPhoto downloading pictures and it quit unexpectedly and i lost a bunch of pictures what do i do can they be recovered ? Please can someone help it took me 12 hours between scanning & transferring & dating old family slides

    I was working with iPhoto downloading pictures and it quit unexpectedly and i lost a bunch of pictures what do i do can they be recovered some where on my computer?? Please can someone help it took me 12 hours just today not counting yesterday between scanning & transferring with a flash drive then dating old family slides in my iphoto. I lost alot

    I was working with iPhoto downloading pictures
    Do you mean importing photos? If so what were you importing from? If it is a flash drive why not just re-import from it? Where did you scan them?
    As to backups - you really need to always have your backup running - without good backups you will lose all photos sooner or later

  • TS4095 iPhoto quit unexpectedly and erased imported photos

    After recently importing photos from my memory card into iPhoto I opted to erase pictures from memory stick because of limited space. When I clicked erase iPhoto quit unexpectedly and now my photos are not in my library or on the memory stick. Are they gone forever or are they floating around somewhere? Thanks.

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

    The hard disc of my laptop has crashed and i lost all the data. Now I want to take back up of my I phone and transfer contacts , messages and music etc back into my laptop , how can I do that. Also let me know how I can transfer the contacts into Windows contacts from I phone. Pl help

    Your content will only be where you put it.  It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone: File>Device>Transfer purchases.
    You can import your pics taken with the iphone as you would with any digital camera.
    You can e-mail the other pics to yourself, they will never be of the original quality.
    You can out a unique contact and calendar entry on the computer.  You should get the option to merge the data when you sync.

  • Every time I fire up my iMac a window pops up saying "Mount notification quit unexpectedly" and it gives me the option to either "Reopen" it or click OK, which gets rid of it. What is this please and how can i stop it?

    Hopefully this will help you.  Try placing your iPad in recovery mode again.  You may have to try this a few times.

    Looks like you restored your backup file to her phone. If you didn't back up your wife's phone first, then the data is gone, sorry.

  • My pc crashed and I lost all my pictures and music that was stored on the pc.  Now i have a new pc and when i connect to itunes using my password all my music and photos are not available.  they appear to be lost.

    my pc crashed and i lost all my pictures and music that was stored on the pc. now i have a new pc and when i log into itunes all my music and photos are not available.  I guess i dont understand the pupose of itunes and its worth.  I thought it backed up all my photos and music, but apparently not.  So what do I use so that when i lose data on  my pc i can retrieve it again at a later date or after a crash?/

    I need help please.
    thank you

    The backup does not include synced media like apps and music. You can redownload them by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If you used PhotoStream get them from your stream. See:

    I had to reset my settings on my iPhone, and seem to have lost all the pictures do my camera roll, how can I restore them

    restore from your backup.  IF you don't have a backup then your pics are gone.
    If you import your pics to your PC - you can use itunes to sync it back to your phone.

  • I have lost all the pictures on Aperture.  What can I do to get them back?  I have not deleted anything.  Help!!!!

    I downloaded Aperture and transferred all pix from Iphoto.  Everything was on Aperture.  Suddenly I have lost all the pictures.  I have a handbook, etc., but to no avail.  Help!

    When this happens to a new user the two most likely causes are:
    Aperture opend a different library that is empty. To check this go to File->Switch to Library. You'll get a window that looks somehting like this:
    Of course the names for the libraries will be different. What does yours show? Is there more then one library listed. If you select Other/New you get this:
    The first library in the list is the currenttly opened Library. What does you window say?
         2. The other possibilty is that you have a filter set on the library keeping you from actually seeing the images           in it. Go to the Library tabb of the Inspector and select the Photos icon. Make sure the search box looks           like this:
    If neither of these two actions clear up your problem post back.
