Iphoto restored but problems
My Mac crashed 2 weeks ago and restoring iPhoto has been a nightmare. All of my "events" are gone, I have duplicates, triplicates, etc. My photos have jibberish under them like "hyvSMkMfS2mpzg1LnmCDsA". I have over 20,000 photos and have most backed up on another mac. Is there a way to take that photo library off that one and move it to my restored (new hard drive mac) - or is there a way to repair / restore what I have?
As your back up is hosed your nest step is to recover the original files from the damaged back up and then make a new Library and start over from scratch. Easiest way to do it is with iPhoto Library Manager

I have an original iPad running 5.1.1. It has started throwing me out of safari to the point it is now unusable. Have tried everything including full restore but problem persists?
Try a few things:
First, try double tapping the home button. You should see a row of apps at the bottom; these are your recenty opened apps. Hold your finger down on any of the icons until they start to shake, and a red minus() appears. Tap the red minus for each app. This will close the app, not delete it. If you have too many apps open, this can cause crashes.
If it still crashes, try the basic troubleshooting steps here:

when using apps or running safari my iphone glitches then takes an age to reboot,done a full restore but still getting same problems any ideas
The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup... Restore as New...
If you have tried all these Steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step... Be sure to make an appointment first...

I am got error while trying to restore,, but i just only error file with 3194. I try many step by install lastest version and fix host file, but still fail. Anybody can give me any key point to solve this problem? Thank you
Error 3194:
This device isn't eligible for the requested build
It means that Apple has stopped signing the version of iOS that you have, try downloading the latest iOS version, then try Restore again. -
Ipad suddenly runs only in a low resolution. Did an itunes restore, but still same problem.
Ipad2 is stuck in a low resolution, icons are large, can't see normal screens. I shut down and restarted the ipad but did not help. Did an itunes Restore, but still same problem. It's like the resolution is now stuck at a high resolution. Anyone seen this problem?
Yes, I just discovered it before getting your reply. Evidently I 3-fingered the screen without knowing it.
I thought I had corrected my "low/high" error, but guess not. ( my first try at posting).
Your comment is right on target.
Thanks, problem solved. -
please,I need your help ! I was updating my iphone ios to ios4.2 and then problems begins when it shows that it needs to restore the factory software to I was trying to restore ,but that didn't happen it begins restoring but then it shows unknown error 1015
Stop being impatient.
From the article that the question was posted from:
Errors related to downgrading iOS
The required resource cannot be found: This alert message occurs when your device has a newer version of iOS than what is available in iTunes. When troubleshooting a device that presents this alert message, go to Settings > General > About and check the version of iOS on the device. If it is newer than the latest released iOS version, the device may have a prerelease developer version of iOS installed. Installing an older version of iOS over a newer version is not supported.
Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.
You cannot downgrade.
If you have a 3GS, you can only install iOS 6.1.3 which is the current version of iOS for the device. -
I am unable to text after update. Also, the dock buttons are frozen. I've tried restoring, but it doesn't fix problem. Any suggestions?
You posted in a thread that has not had any activity in 2 years! Please start your own topic. Also, please describe in detail all you have attempted to do in order to resolve the issue.
It is very difficult to offer troubleshooting suggestions when the "os version" you are using is unknown as each os has their own troubleshooting solutions.
Please complete or update your system profile so the users here can properly help you. -

I'm using iphoto 11 and trying got make a trip map of our cross country trip and the map deletes city names indiscriminately then leaves the point on the map, usually Pittsburgh...
I did export it to iphoto as a pdf then lost Lafayette. I think this is just a bad update and the map program isn't working well. When I changed the font sizes (made smaller) of the cities then letters started disappearing and then iphoto crashed twice. I am going to open the pdf in photoshop and try to replace the missing cities and then use My publisher instead of iphoto for making a photo book. It just is too buggy a program.
Also it's annoying that if you change a photo in the photo book, you lose all the font, size and position changes on anything you've written on the page.Every time I open iPhoto 11 it wants to upgrade the photo library. I let it, check around
iPhoto and look at pictures, and quit iPhoto and it saves the library all 25000 pictures.
So I open iPhoto again and it is asking to upgrade the photo library AGAIN.
And it repeats every time I open iPhoto.
I seems to me as if you have a corrupted iPhoto library. Not bad enough to stop it working in iPhoto 9 but bad enough to cause an upgrade problem.
FWIW I had a corrupted iTunes library that didn't stop iTunes working but every 2nd time I connected my iPod classic it would claim that the iPod library was corrupted. Connect the iPod to a different Mac then back to the first and iTunes was happy for 1 sync -(: go figure.
I have a feeling that it has something to do with Time Machine backups,
because after upgrading my library it started backing up all 120GB of photos again.
I am waiting for Time machine to let me know about the backup size, but would not be surprised if it backed up the complete iPhoto library again.
Just think how difficult it would be to restore from 2 different library versions.
You usually just modify a single library version so then just the change make sense but after a major upgrade of the library version a new backup makes sense to me. -
Hello,
There are major problems in the new iPhoto '11 and I am wondering if anyone is having the problems listed below.
Every time I open iPhoto 11 it wants to upgrade the photo library. I let it, check around iPhoto and look at pictures, and quit iPhoto and it saves the library all 25000 pictures. So I open iPhoto again and it is asking to upgrade the photo library AGAIN. And it repeats every time I open iPhoto.
I also noticed this on other apps such as iMovie and Garageband. iMovie will upgrade all movies made on iMovie, and Garageband scans for Jam mixes every time I open the apps. After quitting iPhoto, iMovie, or Garageband it seems like it never saves changes. I have not tried iWeb or iDVD yet to see if the problem affects those apps aswell.
This is the first time I am angry at Apple for selling software for $50 when it doesn't even work properly.
I have a feeling that it has something to do with Time Machine backups, because after upgrading my library it started backing up all 120GB of photos again.
I have also heard cases of other people loosing photos, thank god I have a back up, all 120GB of it.
Please Apple release a fix ASAP!!!!Every time I open iPhoto 11 it wants to upgrade the photo library. I let it, check around
iPhoto and look at pictures, and quit iPhoto and it saves the library all 25000 pictures.

Edit - solved - needed to remove present mdbdata folder contents before starting a restore.
Bit of a long post, sorry - trying to tell the whole story.
I run SBS2003 in a virtual machine. I stop the VM and copy the virtual disk file to another drive once a week as part of the backup routine. I also take full ("Normal") online NTbackup of Exchange each night. There is only one storage group, containing
a mailbox store and a public folder store. At one time I tested the restore process for exchange and it worked as I recollect, but it isn't now.
I took one of my backups from last week and restored last night's full Exchange backup from the active server. I dismounted the stores in Exchange System Manager (ESM), marked the databases as able to be replaced by a backup, and ran the bkf file in NTbackup.
I was able to watch the files being replaced and rebuilding in the explorer window while the NTbackup was running. I had marked the NTbackup as "Last Restore" and "Mount after Restoring". The NTbackup restore process completes successfully.
When I go to ESM I find that the stores are not mounted. I try to mount them manually and get an error c1041724 from ESM on each store, saying restart ESM or the Information Store Service. Restarting both still gives me the c1041724 in ESM when I try to mount
the stores. restarting the server vm completely leaves me with the stores still unmounted, same errors from ESM.
I check the application events after I try to mount the stores, and I get these events:
1. ESE event 100 database engine started.
2. ESE event 102 database engine started a new instance.
3. ESE event 619 database from backup set on which hard recovery was not started or did not complete successfully
4. MSExchangeS event 9519 error 0xfffffde0 starting database
5. MSExchangeS event 9518 error 0xfffffde0 starting Storage Group.....MDB failed to start
then two ESE events saying database engine stopped.
RE event 619, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/810199, case 1, says "This issue may occur if you do not select the Last Backup Set check box."
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/253931 says the same thing, Last Backup Set not checked during the restore. But I did select that box. (FYI, NTbackup calls it "Last Restore Set" - same thing?)
RE event 9519 error 0xfffffde0,
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258529 says "the Storage Group attempted to restart after a crash, and that the database was restored (but not hard-recovered). In other words, the hard recovery log file replay process was not successfully completed,
or was possibly interrupted."
RE event 619, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/810199, case 1, says to run eseutil /cc on the temporary path where restore.env is located. I do so and get error -939523485. I am directed to
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/328639/EN-US and I see the four events on the KB article are in my event viewer. The article says "old log files are out of sequence with the log that is mentioned
in Restore.env" Event 458 says "The logfiles E0005C75.log and E0005C9D.log are not in a valid sequence". Log file E0005C75.log is in the temporary folder with the Restore.env file. There is no E0005C9D.log in either the temporary folder or the
mdbdata folder. The mdbdata folder has only an E00.log and an E00.chk, and res1.log and res2.log. I do find in the working server that there is a E0005C9D.log.
It sounds like I'm missing some logs from the backup. But it's supposed to be a full Normal backup. I find no mention anywhere that one needs to go back into the running server to copy logs out. What am I missing?OK, so here's something interesting. Noting that the errors implied I was missing logs (from my "full" backup-?) I said why not also back up the whole exchange database folder too? Then I might get those missing logs. So I set NTbackup
to do an online backup of the Information Store, and the exchange mdbdata folder's contents, in the same bkf.
I try to restore the bkf first to my test server, doing just the information store first and leaving the extra mdbdata folder unchecked. Also, the "Last Restore" box is UNchecked so the logs won't be replayed when the restore is done. After that
restore runs, I then uncheck the information store backup and check the mdbdata folder, and run the restore again. The new logs come in now. (I can't run them both in the same restore, information store has to be first, then mdbdata folder.)
After NTbackup is finished with both restores I go to ESM, right-click the stores and Mount them - no eseutil commands. The databases mount just fine, no errors, and I can log in with remote exchange on a test client's IE, no issues; all emails and
calendar posts from the previous day, up to 5PM when the backup runs, are present. The only problem, besides no Microsoft or other websites that I can find saying a full backup needs a supplemental backup to be full, is that my backups are twice
as big as they were before, from copying the databases twice.
So a "full" backup from NTbackup isn't full enough, and a non-documented shot in the dark gets the restore to work.
Is my server issue-matic, or is something not right here with NTbackup? -
Upgrade to Firefox 4.0 has caused nothing but problems. Unable to click links, access websites, etc. How can I downgrade to previous version?
Check that the Bookmarks Toolbar is visible and that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is still placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar.
If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
* Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" or other items that are missing in the toolbar palette or on a toolbar then click the "Restore Default Set" button
