Sounds like you are using an obsolete version of your xxxxx.lrcat file. I don't use Apple, but surely there is a way of searching for a file anywhere on your disk drive. Search for all files with the extension .lrcat -- i.e., search for *.lrcat. This should bring up a screenful of your backup and non-backup catalog files. Double-click on the most recent ones to see if they are what you are looking for.

My Macbook Pro is about 4 to 5 years old. I've noticed the last few months that speed was becoming much slower. It slowed to a crawl last week and won't even turn on now. Where do I take this to near Jackson, Michigan for service?.

Things You Can Do To Keep Your Computer From Slowing Down
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion
Boot from your Lion Recovery HD. When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Data Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. SyncTwoFolders
6. Synk Pro
7. Synk Standard
8. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
Additional suggestions will be found in Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file.

That's not very intuitive
Check your mail server setup (mail>preferences>accounts>) choose your MobileMe account and select Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) dropdown box, select Edit SMTP server list, verify that each instance of the me server has a password, if there are more than one and you only have one account then delete the one without a password.

Hi DOC808HI
# I don't know what you mean by "posted RETR solution". Could you please post a link to the suggested solution? Perhaps you are referring to this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/991792 ?
# Anyhow any further troubleshooting information you can provide will be great e.g. Your Operating System Version (XP, 7, Mac OS X Mavericks), your anti-virus if any, your mail provider, your ISP, what you did, what happened with exact error message, what happened
Cheers!

The last 2 months photos have appeared right back at the beginning of my Events out of date order aothough both my digital camera and iPhone are correctly dated

1. The last 2 months photos imported at intervals on seperate occasions appeared in Last Import, but then disappeared when I imported some more. They should have come up as the latest event in Events, but they didn't. Eventually I found them right back at the beginning of my Events. They are dated
1st April 2013 - 27th April 2013,
2nd March 2013 - 18th April 2013 and
4th May 2013 - 20th May 2013
All my photos are correctly dated and have appeared as Events in chronological order. How can I correct this. I have a huge collection of 305 events = 11,000 photos = 58 GB
2. A number of assorted flagged photos have also appeared as an Event right back at the beginning.
I am using iPhoto '11 Version 9.4.3

In the Events mode check the View ➙ Sort menu to make sure it's set as you expected it to be. If it's By Date ➙ Descending the latest Events will be at the top.

I have been dealing with crashing and freezing issues on my iMac for 6 months. A supervisor has been assisting me but the issue is not getting fixed. The computer was under when the issues started. He wants to get us a new computer but is not allowed.

Our iMac was under warranty when it began freezing and or crashing. I have spent several hours on the phone with a supervisor and had the machine in 2x. We have also had a repair done in our home. The problems persist. We feel apple owes us a new computer. Help!!!

Do you have a written record of your attempts to get it repaired? When you took the machine "in" for repairs, did you take it to an Apple Store or to an Apple Authorized Reseller or Repair Facility, and do you have copies of invoices or statements showing what repairs were made? If the answers are yes, you need to be persistent in attempting to get a new computer. Ask to talk to the supervisor's supervisor to "escalate" the complaint to a higher level. Get copies of all your repair information and send a letter to the Apple Customer Service people in California and ask them for help.
If your iMac was under warranty when the problems started and the problems have not been resolved, your position should be that the problems should still be fixed or the computer replaced even though the warranty may have expired in the interim. Do you live in the US? If yes, your home state has a Consumer Protection agency. File a complaint with them and ask for their assistance in mediating and/or resolving the matter.

Aperture 3 Not Showing Pictures in Edit But Otherwise OK

Hi,
Aperture 3 is not showing pictures in the edit screen. Previews are ok. Moreover, when I zoom in in the edit window, pictures are showing correctly. Also they are shown a second after an adjustment is applied (and, actually, if you hold the slider you can see the picture the whole time). It exports fine.
I've tried:
repairing permissions;
repairing database;
rebuilding database;
creating a new library and importing;
manually repairing the library as per https://discussions.apple.com/message/11700059#11700059
re-installing Aperture;
reparing permissions system-wide.
Nothing helps. I don't have the backup, obviously. System is Macbook Air 1.7 GHz i5, 4Gb.
Could anyone, please, help?
Thanks in advance,
G.

OK first off the procedure you referenced re: manually trying to rebuild a library is a last ditch, library is on fire, crashes the world procedure. It is never to be done as a first wave troubleshooting step and it is never to be done without a complete backup of the library. Hopefully that hasn;t added anything to the problem.
Ok that's out of the way. You should start by removing the filter you have on the browser. It's most likely not causing this but there is no need for it and it's only adding a layer of complexity we don;t need now.
What version of Aperture? If it is 3.2.3 (the latest from yesterday) did this start happening the? If it is not the latest you should upgrade.
Does this happen with all images in the library or only some? What type of images RAW or JPG?
If you create a new empty library and import a few images into it does the problem still happen? What if you make a new user and run Aperture as that user on a new library?
When did the problem start? Was it working OK before with this library?
Finally have you rebooted since this problem started?

IPod touch 5th gen. and iPhone 4 will not connect to home Wifi. No issues anywhere else, just at home. iPhone 6 had the same problem, but was able to correct with network reset. Tried absolutley everything the boards say and nothing works. Help.

Brand new iPod 5 and periodically will pick up our home Wifi, but when it loses it, it's impossible to reset. Says "incorrect password" and it is the correct password. No issue at all with Android devices or anything else on Wifi. Only the iPod and an iPhone 4. My iPhone 6 had the same issue, but I was able to correct it by resetting the network. This "fix" doesn't work on the iPod or old iPhone. Just keeps saying "incorrect password" no matter what you do. Connection has been reset, passwords have been changed... Nothing fixes it. And both are operating on the latest iOS update. I just updated it. Still doesn't work. How crazy.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network. Yes
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before? no
Try the following to rule out a software problem: (Not clear what you did)
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. Since it connects to other networks that indicates a problem with your network
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
