Iphoto told me to restore from back up due to corrupt file.  When I restore it, it gets all the way to the end and then it tells me it needs to be restored.  HELP!

So my iPhoto told me to restore my library from a backup due to a problem with the file.  First, there wasn't enough space so I deleted all kinds of stuff.  I finally got it to restore and then it told me it needed to repair, thumbnmails, etc.  It gets almost all the way to the end and then it tells me the file is damaged and to restore from a backup.  It is like I am in an endless loop and I can't get to my photos.  HELP ME

I restored it again last night.  After the restore I have 52 GB left of space.  The library is 71 GB.  I opened iphoto and it says there are inconsistencies and it needs to repair.  It is doing the repair now.  What usually happens is that it does the repair and then starts the rebuild thumbnail part and gets to the very end of that before failing

    You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
    Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

    Far as your Safari problem do these things until it's resolved:
    1: Software Update fully under the Apple menu.
    2: Check the status of your plug-ins and update (works for all browsers) also install Firefox and see if your problems continue. You should always have at least two browsers on the machine just in case one fails.

  • HT1339 trying to restore ipod and gets to the end and says service interrupted

    i am trying to restore my ipod and i get to the end and it says service interruped, disconnect and try again..   why is it saying that?

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

    Now You lost me (without using a computer?) - Most probably due to that I've not got an iPod Touch but mine is seven Years old - so it most probably work in a totally different way.

  • Is there any REST API to get all the Site and site Collections from Sharepoint Online

    Hi,
    I have one SharePoint Online tenant. We are using REST API to integrate SharePoint to our internal System.
    For my use case I need to get all the SharePoint sites ans Sitecollections. From each SiteCollection I need all the subsites under this.
    I have used below REST Query
    http://<Base site url>/_api/web
    This doesn't give me all the Site collections
    Could any one please give me some way to get all the Site collections and sites from my sharepoint tenant through REST API.
    Thanks,

    Hi Abhiram,
    There seems no such endpoint in SharePoint REST API can retrieve a list of site collections in a SharePoint Online tenant:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj860569.aspx#Reference
    If Client Object Model can be an option for you, you can use Tenant object to achieve what you want:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/24050.perform-basic-admin-operations-using-csom-in-sharepoint-online.aspx#Scenario_3_Fetch_All_Site_Collections
    Anyway, I would suggest you submit a feedback to the Office Developer Platform if there any expectation about the future version of REST API of Office 365 SharePoint
    Online:
    http://officespdev.uservoice.com/
    It
    is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products. What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft
    Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.

  • Can someone help me when Firefox closes randomly it removes all the cookies and cache, and I am not able to restore lost tabs...?

    For a while now Firefox has randomly shut down for reasons unknown. Sometimes windows reports the error but not always. When I start Firefox back up again, it does not restore my tabs. Also as an added bonus it deletes the cookies and cache, and I don't know why. Furthermore this occurrence has become more and more frequent. Just in the last hour along before writing this complaint, Firefox crashed three times right as I switch users, but not every time I switched. I am a taboholic, addicted to tabs, sometimes 70+, and this is the final straw. This frequency became more and more prominent a few days ago. When it first crashed, Windows was kind enough to let me know of the error which first occurred one to two weeks ago. It has become the very bane of my internet surfing. Someone please help, or I will have to renounce my allegiance to Firefox and switch to the dark side that is Crome.

    <blockquote>... or I will have to renounce my allegiance to Firefox ...</blockquote>
    There is no citizenship oath involved in using Firefox, it's a piece of software.
    Look, if Firefox isn't generating any crash reports, you more than likely have an operating system or hardware issue. If Firefox is generating crash reports you can retrieve that information and post the report numbers here.

  • My contacts suddenly disappeared from my iphone 6,i dont have a backup on icloud i think,but i have a backup on my computer ,so i made the backup i saw the contacts and then they disappeared again .i need help?

    i cant restore my contacts from computer or icloud ?they disappear when i restore

    HI
    I contacted Apple & did as below as advised & I got my contacts back.
    Before I started I made sure that I had  a Icloud backup for my IPhone ( which was before the problem started ).[ Settings > ICloud > Backup. ]
    IPhone reset - by 'Erase all contents & settings...
    after the phone starts, choose to restore from Icloud backup.. & choose the Backup you think is without the issue.
    VERY IMPORTANT.. Once the phone restores from the backup & the Home screen comes, put the phone in Airplane mode Immediately.
    Now go to settings > Icloud > put the contacts OFF. ( Keep the contacts )
    Now OFF the Airplane mode & go to settings > Icloud > put the contacts ON & select Merge.
    I got all my contacts back which was there until that Backup.
    Thanks again  - Apple support.

  • Photos in my iPhoto library will not enlarge when double clicked on.  they fill the screen and then screen goes black.  hasn't happened before.  thanks--

    photos in my iPhoto library will not enlarge when double clicked on.  they fill the screen for a second (or less) and then screen goes black.  hasn't happened before.  thanks--

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: 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. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: 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.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/ Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help: As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • I am unable to fully download iPhoto on my iPad 2. It downloads nearly to the end and then I get a message that says"unable to download at this time." This time has now lasted two weeks. What do I do? Many thanks!

    How do I download iPhoto to my iPad 2 iOS 6? It refuses to fully download. Towards the end of the download, I get a message that says "unable to download at this time." This time has now lasted two weeks. I already have iPhoto on my MacBook Pro. Many thanks.

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
