Migration completed, but photos not showing up???

Help, I have completed the migration and the new photos file shows to be the same size as previous iphoto file, but when I open up the new migrated file in Photos there are ZERO images to see?? I have tried to do another migration but the old iphoto file is now recorded as having had "migration complete" so it will not let me do anything other than to say I can open with old version of iPhotos.....which I no longer have since upgrading to Yosemite What to do? Anyone having the same experience???

IIt's the first time I'm hearing of the Photos library being totally empty. You're sure of that? Anyway...
1. Start with the basics of restarting your Mac; and repairing Permissions with Disk Utility in the Urilities folder in your Applications folder;
2. Migrating to Photos removes the iPhoto icon from the Dock, but the app remains in your Applications folder;
3. The iPhoto Library file suffix is renamed, but it remain perfectly usable by iPhoto (once opened again, the suffix change will disappear);
4. To perform a fresh migration, move the Photos Library to the Trash (don't empty it just yet); Launch Photos while holding down the Options + Command keys. You should see a dialog window with your existing libraries listed (it might take a while); select your original iPhoto Library.

  • PSE10 Set in iPhoto Pref, Opens on Edit, but Photo Not Showing

    I just installed PSE10 (Upgraded from PSE 09) on MacBook Pro
    I set PSE10 as default editor in iPhoto Preferences
    in IPhoto when i highlight a photo and click on "edit"  PSE10 opens just like PSE09 did, but no image shows in editing Window

    Barbara:
    Yes that was the problem.
    How bizarre that they hide it away like that.
    I, ego aside,  consider myself reasonably computer saavy and able to diagnose and figure most things out, but that one got by me big time.
    And burying it under a "sure to be ignored" file like "Support Files" is totally what my British friends over here in he UK would call "off putting."
    Thank you a million times over - as especially since Adobe support is purposefully inaccessible.

  • Migration complete but data not available...

    I just used Migration assistant to bring apps and folders forward from Tiger to Leopard. This is my second mac so I've never migrated before. My new machine shows in Get Info that the hard drive 117GB on it (about the size of my old data) but nothing is there. No pictures in iPhoto or songs in iTunes. The applications are there but the App folder is only about 8GB. I looked through all the folders under my hard drive but can't find the info (none have over a few MB to a GB in them).
    Thanks for your time,
    Nile.

    you need to log out of your current account and log into the migrated account. all your iphoto, itunes and other files will be there. every account has its own home directory in /Users folder at the top of the hard drive which contans all the personal files for that account.

  • App is open but will not show photos

    App is open but will not show photos.

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see in the iPhoto window when iPhoto opens?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • New Computer and New External Hard Drive - why do folders and photos not show up?

    I replaced my desktop with a new laptop and external hard drive. I transferred photos from the desktop to the external hard drive. Lightroom 2 only shows the mapped hard drive, but does not show any folders or photos. Can Lightroom be set up to house all the photos on an external hard drive rather than using space on the internal laptop hard drive? Do the photos and folders need to be imported again into LR2? The photos are available for viewing when you search folders, but they open up in Photoshop not LR2.
    What should I do to configure imports to be housed on the external hard drive? Is this wise? I will not be able to hold all the photos on the laptop internal hard drive. Photos used to be JPEG and DNG from D700. I am starting to see NEF. Does this replace DNG? Besides RAW I also need to have JPEG for other family members to access photos on other computers connected to the network. I am watching a tutorial DVD and slowly picking up how this all works. Let me know if I am not using the correct terms.
    Hardware: HP laptop w/64bit, Buffalo 1TB RAID hard drive.

    Lot's of questions here. I'll do a few.
    Yes Lightroom can work with images on external drives. As many drives as you want.
    I assume from what you said in your original post that you have had lightroom installed on the old desktop and now wish to transfer your catalogue and all files to the external drive and work from that.
    So what you would do would be to transfer the entire contents of the lightroom folder on your old computer, except for any images, to the same location on your new laptop. This would include the catalogue files and any folders containing previews. Then you would copy all your image files to the new external hard drive. When you open lightroom you can then select the catalogue you copied from the old computer and open it. In the the folder pane in the library module you can then right click on one of the folders and select "locate missing files". Then you just need to point light room to the new location of your images. You may or may not need to regenerate all your previews.
    I store all my images on external hard drives and I even run the catalogue and previews from the same external drives. I have backups of all my images of course. I have light room make backups of the catalogue to the C drive on my laptop so that the original and the backup are stored in different locations.
    NEF is the proprietary file system for raw images used on Nikon cameras. DNG is a universal raw file format developed by Adobe. You can convert your files from NEF to DNG on import, but as Lightroom can read both types of files it is not necessary. At this point in time if you are using lightroom you should get similar results from either type of file.
    To store imports on the new external drive you can you tell light room to copy the files to the new drive or you can manually copy the files to the new location and have light room import From the current location.
    Hope this helps

  • Please help!! I got my iPhone 4s screen fixed, now in my Photos it shows nothing, although in my memory usage it shows 10.5gb of photos, thats 2000  photos not showing up. What happened?! Where did all my photos go?!

    I got my iPhone 4s screen fixed, now in my Photos it shows nothing, although in my memory usage it shows 10.5gb of photos, thats 2000  photos not showing up. What happened?! Where did all my photos go?!

    WOOHOO!!! i finaly fixed the problem. Here is what to do:
    Chances are if you did the same thing as me you either have
    A) No album names at all for ALL your songs in your library
    or
    B) Have the same name for every album for ALL your songs in your library.
    Here is how to fix it (yah it will take a little work but its worth getting your iPod functioning properly).
    Unless you dont want to have to go and actualy set al lthe album names for every song here is what you can do:
    Go through to iTunes and arange your songs by Artist name. Click the top song for your first artist, hold Shift and click the last song for that same artist (to multi select all the songs for the artist) go into get info and check the Album box. Copy the name of the artist to the Album box and hit ok.
    Now when u update your ipod and go into ur Artists section the actual Artist name should show up instead of the song names.
    For some reason having the same album name for all your songs messes up the organization of the iPod.
    Hope this helps anyone else that is having the same problem

  • My Photo Not Showing Up in Messages

    My photo does not show beside my texts in Messages on my Mac. Only a shadow of a generic person in a rectangle is there. I can see the photos of others who write me, though. I have my photo in Contacts and it does show up in Mail, but not in Messages. My photo also shows up in IMessage on the iPad.
    Why is my photo not showing up in Messages and how could I make it visible? Thanks.

    HI,
    Your Pic is set if you have  Buddy list set up/logged in.
    Enable the Bonjour account if you do not have Jabber, AIM or Yahoo IDs set up in Messages.
    Click on the current Buddy Pic.
    You may find it has pulled the Pic from the My Card in the Contacts app (Formerly the Address Book)
    In turn this may be picking up on the System Preferences > User and Groups > your account Login pic.
    That is to say when you set up the (Mac User) Account it asked you to create/chose a pic from the Login Screen.
    Later the process of setting up an Accounts asked for details that create the Contacts/Address Book Card  and the Login in pic is dragged across.
    AS you then get to set up Messages (Or iChat) then the My Card pic is pulled through.
    All three spots can be changed independently of each other.
    Some of the Recent Items can be from either of the others.
    This is my Buddy list pic and th "Recents" I have.
    The Zebra and head in "teeth" pics are from some testing I did with Pics in the Contacts > My Card options rather than Messages.
    Finally once you have a pic linked to Messages then it also show up at your end for the Chat window for iMessages (as well as for you in AIM or Jabber)
    NOTE
    In AIM and Jabber (Or Yahoo) your Pic is Broadcast and is what you Buddy sees next to your Name (They can override this though)
    In iMessages though your pic is not sent and your Buddy's Contacts app supplies whatever pic they have for you. (As yours does for them)

  • HT201272 When I download a movie I bought on my iPad onto my iPhone it downloads completely but doesn't show up in my videos, what is going wrong?

    When I download a movie I bought on my iPad onto my iPhone it downloads completely but doesn't show up in my videos, what is going wrong?

    Hi adtsalmon,
    You can only watch the movie on the device you rented it on. Here's a snippet from the Apple Support site (italics mine):
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
    Here's the link to the Movie Rentals FAQs site FYI:

    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

  • Photos not showing on Apple TV

    What reson would there be for some photos not showing in apple TV?
    Ta

    Yes, tried that but all that happened was that my Home Sharing although shown turned on on both Apple TV and iTunes did not allow me to connect to my Library, could access You Tube so WiFi connection O.K.. Tried switching Home Sharing off and then on again on Apple TV but that didn't access my Library so had to go back into iTunes on my Mac and switch off Home Sharing and switch it back on again there which then allowed me access to my Library. This resolved the problem as photos I had just taken were now viewable ( This however has happened before so not a new problem, suspect the router but as I am changing ISP soon, going to BT Infinity, hope that will solve that problem.)

    how to save mp3 song and then transfer to itune library? i keep coping to library but its not showing up

    Download it to your computer and make sure you know where the file is.
    Right-click the file, choose Properties and look at the General tab. Make sure the "Type of file" is "MPEG Layer 3 audio file" and that the "Size" is at least several MB.
    Are we good so far?
    If so, find your Automatically Add to iTunes folder (which is inside the iTunes Media folder) and drag your MP3 into it.

    i purchased 2 books for my iPad and they downloaded successfully.  They show up in iTunes when my iPad is connected to my Mac but do not show up on the Mac.  Is this a synch issue?  When I click the Synch box I am warned that downloads on my iPad will be erased.  Is that true?  My ultimate goad is to be able to read the books on my iPhone as well.  Thanks.

    You should be able to copy them to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases and you can then sync them to the iPhone (or you could re-download them directly on the iPhone)
