Cant find the pictures I imported from my digital camera using iphoto

Hi,
I have a macbook pro and imported part of some photos from my digital camera using Iphoto. When it prompted me whether the photos should be deleted from the camera, I chose 'yes'. It deleted the pictures from the camera, but I cant find them anywhere on iphotos. I have tried searching for the pics on my mac using the 'finder', but had no luck.
I repeated the same thing.. took some more pictures and tried to import part of them and then delete the same pics from the camera. Iphotos did the same thing..
I usually import all (and not part) of the pictures from my camera and then use the same option to delete the pictures from the camera after importing them to iphotos. This has always worked.
Please help. Thanks,
Kanchan

In the Event mode make sure the sort order is By Date ➙ Descending. That will put the newer Events at the top of the window. Check there to see if they are there or not.
The safest method to get photos from a camera to the library is to upload them to a folder on the Desktop first. That makes sure they are safely on the hard drive. From there you can import the folder into the library and when you've confirmed they are in the library you can delete the folder from the Desktop and have the camera reformat the memory card.

Iphoto cant find my pictures

I am using iPhoto 08. Went to it and all my pictures were missing. All the albums were listed on the sidebar but they were empty.
I went to the library and imported everything. Now the albums are empty and I have all the pictures in the 'album' called Last 12 months.
In addition to all the pictures I have a lot of things I never saved. They are numbers, icons, curves, etc.
What is happening and can I just trash these strange pictures or are they being used by the computer as icons etc.

duggg:
By importing the contents of the iPhoto Library package back into the library you've duplicated many of the files in there and did not resurrect the library as it should have been resurrected.
Do you have a backup copy of the library? If not you're going to have to start over with a new library and import only the large image files from the old library. Here's how you'll have to do it.
1 - move the old library to the desktop, open it and move the Originals folder to the desktop.
2 - open the Originals folder and do a search with the following criteria:
File type = image
Size is less than 100 KB
3 - in the search results window you'll see all of the small icon files that were imported as normal files. Select them all and move to the Trash bin in the dock.
4 - launch iPhoto and create a new library.
5 - drag the cleaned out Originals folder from the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
This will give you a new library with somewhat the same events of your old library.
To prevent similar losses in the future be sure to keep current backups of the entire iPhoto library package and see the tip at the end of my signature.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 or later), 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger 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.

I just upgraded to OS 10.8.1 and now iphoto cant see the photos on my iphone. i can't download them to my laptop at all. not what i had hoped for from an upgraded OS. any suggestions? thanks, Carrie

just upgraded to OSX 10.8.1 on my 2008 macbook pro, and now when i sync my phone i cannot download photos to iphoto.
can't pull them in using image capture either.
changed my sync settings but that just tried to pull all my iphoto images onto my phone, which was not what i wanted either.
the old OS worked fine for this function but 10.8.1 not so much.
how to fix? need to be able to pull the photos off the phone, and need to be able to NOT pull all iphoto ONto the phone at each sync.
thanks,
-carrie

I opened the iPod with iFunBox.
Can find no relevant documents other than the single image in the 9th of 9 Cameras.
The other 8 Cameras appear empty.
Am now trying an iCloud sync which appears to be showing the images.
Curious.

Hi shldr2thewheel,
it has been a while since we have last spoke, I would like to let you know, I am still working on getting used to the switch from windows to a Mac/Apple system. I do have a new question for you, I did purchase In Design CS5.5 through journeyed.com through Cuyahoga Community College of which I attend as a student, is there a way to purchase an online book through iTunes to learn that as well? Also, you know me, the struggling student, I would also, when and if the book can be purchased through the iTunes, would need to know if you do know of a much easier book for struggling students like myself and at a reasonable price as well for the In Design CS5.5 program. Our campus bookstore had closed early, and, so did the colleges library and our local library here where I do live, so, I cannot go to either place to purchase a book or to take out a book, plus cash funds are low at this moment as well but, I do have money left on the iTunes account to use, if it can be used. So, can it be used, the iTunes money, towards finding a low priced online book? I am in great need of assistance as I have a project due for my one course for this Tuesday, September 4, 2012.
Sincerely in need of help once again,
Kim

Cant find the Iphoto Library

Hi,
I use an external HD for my Iphoto Library. Today, the HD disconnected by accident while I was using Iphoto. All the pictures in IPhoto went blank because of this. After reconnecting the harddrive, I reimported all the photos on the external harddrive into IPhoto (replacing the old blank ones). I soon realised that IPhoto was no longer using the Library folder on my external harddrive, because Iphoto can still open all the photos without the external harddrive being connected. The problem is that I can not find any Photos or Library folders anywhere on my computer, so I have no idea where Iphoto picks up the pictures. I have tried to restart the computer several times, but the same thing still occurs.
Can somebody please explain to me what is going on?
Thanks in advance,
Morten

I reimported all the photos on the external harddrive into IPhoto<<<</div>
That was your mistake. You created a second library on your main drive. I expect that it's located inside HD/Users/YourName/Pictures. You probably should trash it but don't do that just yet.
Hold down the Option (Alt) key while opening iPhoto. When you get the query, direct iPhoto to the library on the external drive. After iPhoto opens with that library, do everything that you're able to do to confirm that all photos are present and accounted for. When finished, you can safely trash the library on the main drive.
The problem is that I can not find any Photos or Library folders anywhere on my computer<<<</div>
Depending on how "Spotlight" is configured, it might not be looking in the correct location.

I was importing photos to iphoto and somehow lost access to my iTunes library. when i open iPhoto, it asks me to select a library, but there are no photo libraries for me to select. I cant find my pictures and have no access to my iPhoto..

What does iTunes have to do with this? Also more specific information might be helpful.
What system and iPhoto versions are you running?
Where are you being asked to select a library? What kind of library, iPhoto or iTunes?
What do you see when you first launch iPhoto?

Iphoto library lacks the picture icon

Hi all-
I noticed a few weird things recently with my iphoto-- many video clips lack thumbnails (ie the only way to tell what clip it is is by actually viewing it). Some are just black/ no video. Same with some pictures- they're just black/gone. I tried to recover using time machine- didn't help. I noticed that in finder, the iphoto library lacks the 'picture' icon and is a "package" file (see attached screenshot). But- it's the right size and other than what I describe above it seems to work ok. I made a backup of entire HD with carbon copy cloner. Even when I reboot and select the external HD iphoto library it looks the same (no icon)- and in fact it won't let me select that "package file" as the library. I tried fixing with iphoto (permissions, recreating thumbnails etc) to no avail. At this point I think I should re-load iphoto and see if that helps-- but my concern is that if I delete iphoto and reload that I won't be able to use the library on my external drive since I can't use it currently.
any suggestions?
I'm using OS X and iPhoto '11, both updated.
thanks in advance,
Brad

If rebuilding the database doesn't solve the problem you might have to give this a try:
Starting over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Open the library package like this.
2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
Note: your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

Can't find the pictures after moving the library to EHD

I followed the instructions of moving the iphoto library to the external HD. I created an alias and moved it to the Pictures folder. I opened IPhoto and I can see all the events and thumbnails, however when I try to open any picture and I get the message that the picture is not found. I guess is that the picture files are located outside the library. the library has the pointers to the old folders....
I have 17000 pictures, how can I find each of them?
I tried opening IPhoto with the "option" key pressed and choosing the library in the EHD. I get the same result. I can see all the events and thumbnails but It can't find the pictures.
Message was edited by: calfon1

Did you try opening and checking the validity of your library before you copied it back to the EHD? By not finding some of the photos do you mean you get the "!" window when you double click on a thumbnail?
If so then try the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in the User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select options #1 and #6.
If all else fails create a new empty library on the EHD and do the following: sart over with a new library and import the Originals folder from your original library as follows:
Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
1. Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
2. Open the library package like this.
Click to view full size
3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
4. 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.
Then you can compare the number of photos between this library and the other to see if either is more complete.

HT4236 i cant find the photo tab under the ipad at the left side

hello
i got dell vostro. i got back from a trip, whike i was at the trip i download pictures ti my ipad from the sd.
i edit the pic in ulbums.
now i want to move my albums to the pc.
i read the support answer about it but i cant find the photo tab on the left side under the ipad device.
thanks
amit

It doesn't appear on the left-hand side, a Photos tab appears on the right-hand side of your computer's iTunes when you've selected the iPad 'device' on the left-hand side - but that is only used to copy photos to the iPad, not to copy them off.
To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard

Why doesnt iphoto find my pictures from my iphone?

I find my iphone in Itunes but not i iphoto. I cant find the pics in my macbook pro from my iphone. What do i do wrong??

Try 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.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

Crystal Reports Cant Find the table

Hello ,
I have a problem when i try to preview a report Crystal Reports says that cant find the table , it happend when add a table that in his name has an underscore example "SALES_REP" , im working with CR 2008 and open access ODBC driver.
Can you help me with the problem?
Thank you
Manuel

Hello,
Try installing all CR patches and then test using OLE DB. If not an option we need to know more details of the database and driver/client?
I recall this may be an issue and not sure if it's been patched or not. Try searching here to see if anyone else has had this problem.
Thank you
Don
