Sounds awfully like a new catalog has been created.
Open "File" in the dropdown menu go to "Open Recent" and seewhat you can find.
There is a very high likelihood that your usual catalog is there ready to be opened.
Let us know how you go.

  • Help! We've lost all our families 'Faces' in Aperture, can you help?

    Can You help us please?
    I've just upgraded OSX to 10.8.2 & noticed Aperture playing up-so I upgraded Aperture to 3.4 hoping it would start playling nice again, but now I've lost all my family pics tagged in 'Faces' It's taken me over a year to organise quiet a few thousand of all our famlily pics, can anyone help please? Any light shed on the subject would be much apppreiciated.
    Thank you kindly,
    Wayne & Family. :-) XXX

    do you know of a way I can reduce it's size?
    Wayne, when you relocate (all or some of) the originals to an external volume, the library on your MBA will shrink considerably. But there is no way in Aperture to delete the originals completely.
    I am nor sure, how familiar you are with the organisation of the Aperture library. Other than in previous versions of iPhoto, Aperture never actually renders an edited image. It just writes textual comments on how to render the edited versions, if you want to export your image. In the library are just your originals and instructions on how to produce an edited version, if the image is needed. This makes it easy to undo edits and to create several edited versions of the same image, without using much additional space. So if you remove the originals, your images are lost. The referenced library is a neat way to get the originals from your system volume, until they are needed.
    Other options:
    Don't import raw+jpeg pair, if you are shooting raw, raw should suffice.
    Rigorously weed out your library and delete duplicate or redundant images
    Render only small preview images, or none at all, but then you cannot share your images with the Media Browser, and some operations will be slower.

  • When I try and launch Firefox, I get this error message A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time." and have tried all of the trouble shooting tips, can you help?

    When I try and launch Firefox, I get this error message >A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time." and have tried all of the trouble shooting tips, can you help? I thought if I were to completely uninstall and re install it might help, but I cannot seem to find instructions to do this....

    See [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]], the image shown in that article is the Windows equivalent of the error message that you are receiving, but the information relates to the Mac.

    If the bookmarks window is blocking the full view in Safari, just tap the solid blue bookmark at the top to get rid of that window.

    Dear .... My brother lost his iphone 4 in dubia how can you help as?

    Nobody here can help. If your brother enabled "Find my iPhone" in the settings of the lost phone he might be able to trace it using the app and iCloud, but if not, it is gone.

  • Hi my name is najji i am from kuwait my ipad it lost i do not where is it can you help me please and thanx

    hi my name is najji i am from kuwait my ipad it lost i do not where is it can you help me please and thanx

    If you set up the Find My iPad service prior to losing your iPad, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPad is turned on, connected to either the 3G or a WiFi network, or has not had the Find My iPad service disabled or the iPad been completely restored).
    If you did not set up Find My iPad, then there is no way to track it.
    Regards.

  • Ive lost my bookmark and backspace icons. Can you help?

    Ive somehow lost these icons. Also Ive got another toolbar-Elf which I cant seem to ged rid of. Can you help?

    * If, on Windows, in Firefox 3.6 the menu bar is hidden then press and hold the Alt key down or press F10, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear
    * Go to "View > Toolbars" and check-mark "Menu Bar" with a click on it to make that permanent. See [[Menu bar is missing]]).
    * Make sure that you have the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then see if you can find them in the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window
    * If you see the missing item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window onto one of the toolbars.
    * If, in "View > Toolbars > Customize", you do not see that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button

  • Lost all my photos... Can anyone help?

    Have been spending the afternoon trying yet again to copy all my photos to an exernal hardrive to make some room. Managed to copy the library i thought, but then realised that when i del;eted something form the library on the mac, it also deleted from the library on the hardrive.
    So i tried again to copy the library on the mac to the hardrive in a number of ways, lost track of all the ways now, and then suddenly all the images disapperared, leaving 1000 empty borders.
    Any ideas how to get them back anyone? Please?
    And also, once theyre back, any ideas about the best way to save them on the external hardrive so i can delete them from the mac?
    And lastly.... 2 years ago, when someone tried to help me and moved 2000 photos to an extrernal hardrive and then deleted the photos from the mac, the whole lot disappeared from both mac and from external hardrive. Does anyone know if theres any scope for getting those back at all?
    Many thanks for any advice offered

    Thanks for answering. I can't find them. There are marks depicting where the photos used to be - like frames - so I'm thinking there must be a way to find them, but am not experienced enough to know how.
    I've tried launching iphoto and pressing alt and command and then ticking all 4 options of how to rebuild... but none of this has worked, the empty frames are still there though, sjhowing the date te roll was taken etc.
    My main problem is I have a load of video footage to put on the laptop, i was trying to make space for this when i lost the photos, as I'm making a film for friends who are leaving the country next week, and so I'm looking for a really quick option.
    Can you give me any other tips about where to look etc please???
    Thanks

  • I seem to have lost all my .mac mail settings. Can anyone help?

    Woke up this morning and could not receive .mac mail. Went to type in my password and all settings were gone for serveers, ports, etc.
    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Hello, check the Users folder to see if maybe your user got renamed & there's another one ion there.
    Then...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    Reboot.

  • I can not export, can you help?

    I have 10.0.8 version of Final Cut Pro X.
    I have a 6 minute video I made and have tried to export it in various forms.  When I export it, it either says: Quicktime Failed :50  or Error with frame 7729.
    If it does work exporting to quicktime it usually changes fonts in the porgram or deletes the audio.
    It will not export to DVD or Youtube.  When I try to export it it is very slow. 
    Can someone walk me through this?

    There are so many threads about this…
    Find the clip at that frame number and replace it. (In preferences>editing>time display, select frames to make this easier.)
    With the range tool, select a section of the sequence  that includes the replaced clip and export as a master file. If it exports, export the same section, Share>DVD. In the export dialogue window. under Settings, set output device to HD. If it makes a disk image, you're probably good to export the whole project.
    If replacing the clip didn't work, delete all your render files. Open a new project and copy and paste your old project's sequence to it.
    Good luck.

  • Suyin Webcam "Not installed or in use by another" error on windows 7 64 Home Premium. I have tried all advice found, nothing works. Can you help me?

    Hello,
     I have an integrated webcam that has not  been working for approx 6 months! I have updated the  Suyin driver/software from Gateway.com. It installs with no problems. I have the webcam icon on
    my toolbar and I am able to open the help menu for the software and directions on how to use the camera. However I can't open the preview window and get an error message "camera not installed or in use by another." In device manager, it shows 1.3
    M webcam under imaging devices with no errors and the driver being updated. The driver is not Suyin but  a Microsoft usb video driver
    6.1.7601.17514 from 6/21/ 2006? I have done driver scans from multiple sites that show the webcam driver is up to date?
    I have a NV53A Gateway laptop with an AMD 4200 Radeon HD Graphic Card which is updated from AMD.com with a 13.1 Cataylst Vision Engine Control Driver for my AMD VGA card. The webcam worked before with AMD updates such as 12.6.

    I don't know if AMD is controlling my webcam? When I click on flash it states no webcam found, the mic is found though. Skype and other sites also say no webcam found. I don't know why I can't install Suyin through device manager?
     The software installed is
    UVC 0.6.47.1:VIDEO Web Camera
    I have multiple registry entries for suyin from the download such as regedit 5.0 Suyin which by default has this error message in many languages? There is also a USB registry that flashes when installed and
    a echo@  registry entry too. These are located in the folder in Windows/ Programs/86 under Video Web Camera. What has taken over my webcamera?????
    I don't know if I need a BIOS update to fix  this from gateway.com??? I haven't done that because I am unsure and don't want to make this worse. I do find at the gateway site the only update is the webcam
    which is 1/21/11. The others are the same  from 6/24/2010, which I already have. I bought the computer in 12/2010 new. The webcam was working in 12/13 , for I had a 2 year warranty and no issues .  I think this is a simple fix but I am not an expert,
    only good at following logical,proper instructions to fix an error. 
    I'd be grateful and shocked if anyone can help me. I have no viruses and have Norton 360 running all the time and done check-ups with Malware and Superspy.
     I have another user on my computer which is myself but logged off. If I deleted the other user, would my webcam work or is it my registry, AMD??? I am sooooo frustrated !!!!!! I am confused why
    device manger states no errors and driver sites find no webcam updates or errors, either. There is no Suyin driver in the driver store and the inf file won't install per device manager? 
    Thank-you for your time and if you are unable to assist me , please advice where to go. Please let me know if you need more information.
    Kindly,
     Victoria

    I did some googling and found alot of topics from you on this issue, to me it simply seems like on of the connectors is broken or loose.

  • I love firefox 3.08 but when I install any improved versions they will not run on my desktop even when I have disabled all add ons and the firewall, can you help?

    my system is Windows XP Media Center 2005 Hp model
    I use Avast anti virus but have disabled it when loading firefox
    I removed the Mcfee firewall which I thought might have stopped it running
    I disabled all the add ons in case that was the problem
    The internet explorer which I dont use as a browser has loaded up the inbox which ss very hard to remove
    I have tried all the suggestions in the support section without success
    please help as the message on the screen reads that the firefox version 3.08 is no longer secure.

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
