Left side menu missing in iPhoto

For some reason, the bar on the left side of iPhoto is no longer visible. This is where it shows all my folders, etc.
I suspect it was some keyboard command that I inadvertently used. Any suggestions to get them back?

Move your cursor very slowly over the left side until it turns into a "+" and click and drag to the right. If you have trouble doing that delete the iPhoto preference file as follows:  make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
     User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
Click to view full size
2 - launch iPhoto and reset its preferences as required..
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 down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • How to make a left side menu?

    I need to know how to make a left side menu for my site,  can anyone help me? I am new to macromedia dreamweaver MX. Thanks

    I prefer to use CSS styled lists for menus.  Very easy to edit later.  Web friendly for people and search engines.

  • Favorites in the left-side menu

    Hi,
    Can you consider the possibility of adding Favorites in the left-side menu, where currently Development Areas and Collaboration Areas are available?
    So for example I could jump to ABAP Corner or ABAP forum or whenever within SDN with one click.
    It'd require the possibility to mark areas as favorite.
    It's more a nice to have, but you might add in the end of your long SDN wish list:-)
    Thanks,
    Peter

    I second that!!

  • 6.0 upgrade..still seeing left side menu

    I have just upgraded a 4.x install to 6.0 and am still seeing the left nav sidebar. In a new install this, of course, is replaced by the second layer of tabs.
    is this a settting I need to change in a config file? Or does the upgrade somehow keep the old .jsp files?
    thanks.

    Hi Dana,
    I've not tried to update any of previous IDM to 6.0, but once I've had similar issue after upgrade. It has occured when I've modified the .jsp files... An evidence of this can be found in some directory in your IDM root... savedObjects or something like that.
    It's just a shoot into a darkness, but maybe it's the same issue.
    p.s. Have you tried another browser? (to exclude cache issue)

  • "events" is missing from iPhoto source list / left-hand menu

    The "events" menu option is suddenly missing from the left-hand side menu of my iPhoto library.  See screenshot:
    Photos, Faces, Places, but no Events!  It used to be there and now it's not, not sure what happened.  When I open a different iPhoto library it is there, so it seems like a problem with my iPhoto library?  I tried rebuilding the iPhoto database and that didn't fix it.  The event data still seems to be there, when I browse the photos view pictures are still grouped by events.  Anyone have any suggestions?  I'm using iPhoto v 9.6 on Yosemite.  Thanks in advance for your help!

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • I just upgraded to the new Photo and find a few things missing. May find more later. My Events are gone. Also, the Albums and Projects that I created that were on the left side tab of iPhoto are now gone. Where are they?

    Where are my Events from the old iPhoto? Also, where are the albums and projects I created that were on the left side tab in my old iPhoto?

    After importing my iPhoto Library no Events became Albums. Some of my Albums are still Albums, but many are missing from the Albums tab and Sidebar. One of the Albums listed has no photos when it should have 142. Another is missing nearly all of its photos. I found some missing Albums by name via the search window. Yet they remain missing from the Albums tab. Very strange indeed. This is one big mess right now! Thank goodness iPhoto still works.
    Yes, it's a mess for sure, and I've lost confidence in it for now.  First attempt, 5 photos came up missing.  Delete and start over, then after second attempt 18 photos go missing.  Even one single missing photo is a real confidence breaker for me.
    After conversion, and activation of the sidebar, all of my Events were migrated into a single "Photos" Album called "iPhoto Events".  Why would I want "legacy" Events segregated into one big Album?  What the heck am I supposed to do with that?  That's useless if new photos are going to be organized in some other way moving forward.  I cannot imagine new photos automatically putting themselves into a new Event inside of the "iPhoto Events" Album... because they won't.  I'll be stuck with my old iPhoto Events in this one Album, and the new stuff organized as per Photos.  Weird, just weird.
    Also, in the "all photos" view, there are dates that are just blank.  I think I know why.  In iPhoto, I merged various photos into single Events.  For whatever reason, within the Library, this left empty folders behind.  iPhoto's fault, not mine... I simply dragged & dropped photos to combine Events.   Then during Photos import/conversion these empty folders got converted into "blank" days within Photos... this is simply ridiculous.  When programming for an import, you'd want to ignore a folder if there are no files inside of it, not convert it into a block of photos that contain no photos.  It's nonsensical... you cannot have an iPhoto Event with zero photos, yet that's what was converted over.  LOL.
    I'm certainly not going to invest the time into cleaning up and moving hundreds of Events and 18,000 photos if Photos can't even do a simple library conversion.  Heck, what about the dozens of photos that my iPhone 5S fails to geotag for whatever reason?  Can't edit geotags.  Can't bulk edit meta data.  These are pretty basic functions.  Total fail.
    I'm going back to iPhoto for a while, hoping Apple eventually cleans up this mess into something usable.

  • FaceBook button missing in iPhoto 8.0.4, menu option does nothing

    I can see the MobileMe, Email and Flickr buttons in iPhoto (latest version). The FaceBook button is missing. Clicking an album and then the FaceBook menu item in Share does nothing.
    Neither does the Flickr button or menu item. MobileMe does bring up a dialog box but I have no idea where the FaceBook button disappeared to and how to bring it back and actually make it work. I have posted albums OK in the past.

    You remove that file.
    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.

  • Is there a way to open the right click menu on the left side of your pointer?

    Whenever I try to right-click an object that's located on the right side of the screen, the pointer always automatically click whatever entry in the right-click menu which just happens to be under the pointer the moment the menu is opened. I noticed that the reason this happens is because the right click menu always forces itself to open on the right side of the pointer, and when there isn't enough space, the right-click menu will open underneath the pointer. Since this is horribly inconvenient, is there a way to open the right-click menu on the left side of your pointer?

    Are you saying you have an icon on the far right side and when you rt click on it, your pointer ends up opening wherever it lands? That is a two step process, or normally should be at least a two step process. Do you have a Mouse in your Control Panel? You should check, because there may be some properties with which you can play. For instance, I can switch primary and secondary functions on my mouse buttons by checking a box.
    When I rt click on right side, the menu opens on the left.
    When I rt click on left side, the menu opens on the right.
    In order for me to take an action, I then have to move to an area in that menu and click.
    I hope I understood your question correctly.

  • Mozilla crashed yesterday and now bookmarks are not showing along the left side of page as they did before. They are on the menu bar but hubby does not like this location. Anyway I can get it back to the left side of the page?

    This spring we changed from IE to Mozilla after upgrading to Win 7. Everything has been fine with Firefox until yesterday when it crashed when I attempted to open an email. Since then the bookmarks (or favorites as my husband calls them) have not been in their usual place which was along the left side of the page. They are located in the Bookmarks bar at the top of the page but husband prefers the old IE way which we had until yesterday PM. Is there any way that we can get them back to the left side of the page other than going back to IE? Now that I have gotten used to Firefox I like it just fine.

    *You can open the Bookmarks in the sidebar via View > Sidebar > Bookmarks (Ctrl+B)
    *You can open the History in the sidebar via View > Sidebar > History (Ctrl+H)
    Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
    You can find toolbar buttons to open the bookmarks (star) and the history (clock) in the sidebar in the toolbar palette and drag them on a toolbar.<br />
    Firefox 4 versions and later have two bookmark buttons with a star in the Customize window.<br />
    One star button has a drop marker that open a Bookmark menu.<br />
    The other star button without the drop marker opens the bookmarks in the sidebar.<br />

  • Lost the 'file, edit' etc'task bar on the left side of my mail menu.  my upper left screen reads 'welcome to lightroom moblie.  I never had nor can use these.  how do i back to basic LR and upper left task bar?

    I have lost my 'file,edit, ...' task bar from the upper left side of my LR screen.  My upper left corner now reads something about welcome to Lightroom mobile. ( I have never had or used the mobile version and I can't use it anyway. )  When I push my mouse pointer up again the top of the screen the 'file, edit,...' does not reappear and stay as it has been doing for the last 3 years.  How can I get it back?  And, maybe what did I do so I can avoid this from happening again?  Thank you.  (I am not PC knowledgeable, please bear with me.)

    Does the menu bar appear when you move your mouse pointer to the top of your display. If so then you could change the behavior of Lightroom via the menu Window->Screen Mode
    Hope that helps

  • Search Tab Goes Missing from the Left-hand Menu

    Hi, I am using Spotify version 3.1.0.1117 in my trusty Toshiba Thrive (AT100) that runs Android version 4.0.4. I think it has just updated to the latest Spotify version and I notice that after initialising, the Search tab would go missing from the left-hand menu after browsing my playlists and not come back. The tab lists would start from Browse, and so on. Anybody else having similar problem? Any help is kindly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    The triangle next to the main Playlists folder is pointing down.
    I set up a subfolder for a few streaming radio stations. The missing (and non-missing) playlists have not been put into a subfolder. They are all smart playlists (I don't know if that makes a difference).
    I have the latest Itunes. Should I try re-installing?

  • Vertical Menu on Left side

    Hi,
    I am new to coldfusion. My application need a vertical menu on the left side. This menu should be displayed on all the pages. I decided to use cfinclude tag for this.
    I thought I will use <table> tag to make the menu.cfm appear at the left hand side and page.cfm(Actual content page) to come on right side. But my menu.cfm is going out of table. I tried to make the width of the table to 20%. But nothing is working out.
    Can you please help me!
    Regards,
    Anjana

    check menu.cfm to find any closing tags,
    create a "header.cfm" page as follows:
    <table>
         <tr>
              <td valign="top"><cfinclude template="menu.cfm"></td>
              <td valign="top">
    Then on all pages at the top
    <cfinclude template="header.cfm">
