Missing movies in iPhoto after termination of the software during watching a movie

Details:
OS X Version 10.8.5, Processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7, memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, storage capacity 250 GB
iPhoto 11 Version 9.4.3 (720.91)
Following has happened today:
After recording and transferring movies from the camera to iPhoto I have watched every transferred movie.
During watching the last movie (about 3 - 5 minutes) iPhoto has closed. I have rebooted the notebook about 3 times. The only thing still there are the 2 folders - but the imported movies are still missing. The program showes "0" entries.
I would be very grateful if the movies could be retrieved and perhaps the cause could be found.
Thanks for helping in advance

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    Hi, Accidentally somebody screw up Photoshop CS4 and InDesign CS4 Master edition on a MAC computer in the school. The install discs did not start to run therefore I can't  reinstall the 2 missing programs. I want to install the softwares, therefore I download those from here.  The downloaded program refuse to accept the serial number which was given to the school when they purchased the Master Collection CS4 MLP A00. Thank you for your help, in advance.

    Hi Jeff,
    Thank you. I am a little bit busy at work, sorry for the delayed reply. I tried to solve the problem, but it still exists. The 3rd of the Adobe disk is damaged someway. I tried to run on my mac at home and it has a failure. So I think we have no other choice that to download the full pack of master collection. I had a discussion with the IT expert and he figured out that company does not exist any more from where they purchased the Adobe Master Collection for Mac and PC. So If you would be kind to help me, what kind of information ID or any kind of document would be needed to identify the purchaser institute (us). I don't think any of us has an account at the Adobe. I will try to figur out. I desperately need to replace Photoshop and InDesign as without them it's really harsh to teach the kids fot the graphic design.
    Sincerely yours.

  • I am using ipod touch 4g 8 gb, with ios6 software. It is getting very very slow even after i reinstalled the software. Apps like temple run 2 and subway surfers are getting stuck and it is very very slow.My ipod has 2.6 gb free space.

    I am using ipod touch 4g 8 gb, with ios6 software. It is getting very very slow even after i reinstalled the software. Apps like temple run 2 and subway surfers are getting stuck and it is very very slow.My ipod has 2.6 gb free space. What is the problem. I am not getting to know. Even after i reinstalled these apps it is still getting stuck and it is very very slow. Is this what i get after paying so much money for ipod. Is this what i get very poor perfomance.

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.

    - 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.
    - Restore from backup. See:

    Your solution will not work!  It has been tried many times by users, and fails every time.
    Other HP Employees have explained why it doesn't work - the lack of a bootloader in update.zip prevents  the ability to roll back to Jelly Bean.

  • What are the limitations of the software during the 30 day trial?

    what are the limitations of the software during the 30 day trial?

    Trials are fully functional.
    The only limitation is that they will stop working 30 days after first launch.
    You remove the time limit by entering a valid serial number which you get when you purchase the software. Or by subscribing to a Cloud membership plan.

  • I lost all my photos in iPhoto after I updated the iPhoto thumbnails.  How do I get my pictures back?

    After I updated the thumbnails, my iPhoto could not even open, but when I did, all my photos were gone.  Is there a way to recover those photos that I lost?

    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.  

  • Missing pictures in iPhoto after 10.6 to 10.7.5 upgrade

    Hello Everyone,
    I was running 10.6 on my iMac 27" 3.06 GHz with iPhoto ('09 I guess ?) Backed up continuously with time machine.
    The HD broke so the local store replaced the drive but pre-loaded 10.7.5 on it so when I backed up the whole uMac I ended up with 10.7.5 [side issue - I have no copy of 10.7.5 !].
    Then I realised that for a few (apparently random) recent sets of images in iPhoto 8.1.2 the thumbnails were visible but the full size images were not. I tried a couple of the iPhoto "rebuild" options but now I cannot see these same sets of thumbnails at all. iPhoto cannot export them in any format
    Its only a few sets so one option is to find the originals and re-import them - but I don't know where to find them in 10.7.5. (obviously search doesn't help !).
    I still have a second copy of my entire iMac on a separate (also time machined) backup drive from when it was 10.6 - does that help me in some way ?
    I hope that I've provided enough info for some constructive help.
    Thanks
    Steve

    Connect the two Macs together and copy the library from your backup iMac backup and replace the existing library.  Then launch iPhoto with the Option key held down, select the newly copied library.
    You should contact the store that installed 10.7.5 and ask for a Lion install disk.
    If the orignals are still in the library but unavailable to iPhoto give this a go:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • The recovery mode is missing and now i can't install the software , what can i do?

    The recovery mode is missing , what i can do to acces again, becalisme now i can'T install the software      

    If you got the Mac new before July 20, 2011, call AppleCare for the original discs.
    If you got the Mac new before March 15, 2010, get the 10.6 retail installer disc from the http://store.apple.com/
    If you got the Mac new after July 20, 2011, boot with command-R.   
    If you have no backup, get a data recovery tool as the hard drive may be failing if command-R doesn't work and the aforementioned solutions don't help.
    If it doesn't work but have a backup, you may need to get a new hard drive, or repair the directory with a tool such as Alsoft Disk Warrior.

  • The software Icon is still on taskbar , after I close the software in 64-bit Windows 7.

    Hi,
    I programmed two labview software. One is bigger and the other is smaller. Both  work fine on windows XP. After I move those software to 64-bit windows 7, I found the smaller one can not close correctly, but the bigger one is good. The software Icon of the smaller one is still on taskbar, after I close it. The windows 7 tasks manager shows 'Not responding'. I can not figure out how to fix it. I have to kill the process manually.
    Please help me
    Thanks a lot.

  • After having updated the software on my apple tv, i cannot set up home sharing on it (let alone itunes!) simply, the apple tv does not recognise my apple id and password anymore

    i have updated the apple tv software (on one apple tv, ihave 2) after having used for 2 years withou any problem.
    i tried to log in again to watch movies already purchased but i cannot. the itunes store is not available and the home sharing does not recognise my id and password. on my pc i have alsoupdate to the latest software my itunes.
    the second apple tv where i am still resisting tomupdate the software works very well as always.
    help!?

    Hi Everyone,
    hope this message finds you all in time. The recent Apple TV update 5.1 is terrible. Apple knows it is which is why (thankfully for some relentless user -I have no idea who but I believe it was under threat) they have allowed to sign 5.0.2 again which means you can downgrade your Apple TV 2 and 3 to a 5.0.2 version via iTunes. Who knows how long they will keep the window open but I have downgraded my ATV early this morning. I couldn't post this earlier because I was out all day but I am doing it now.
    Here's how to do it:
    1) Connect your ATV to your computer via a Mini USB (not included with ATV but included with many other electronic devices) - in order for your ATV to appear in iTunes you must FIRST plug the USB cable to your computer and ATV and only THEN plug the power cable.
    2) Download your ipsw restore file from Apple.
    5.0.2 (ATV 2): AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    5.0.2 (ATV 3): AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
    3) In iTunes select yout ATV, hold SHIFT and click on Restore
    4) Find and choose the downloaded IPSW file in the Open Dialog Box and hit Next
    5) As long as Apple still signs that version the Restore process will begin and will take a few minutes to complete.
    Enjoy!

  • When I try to open itunes I get the following message MSCVR80.dll is missing. It twells me to reinstall the software. When I try to reinstall the install hangs up and tells me there is an error and I need to reinstall.

    My Itunes will not open due to a missing file, MSCVR80.dll. It tells me to reinstall the software. I downloaded the installer for my windows 7 system. When I try to install it tells me there is an error in the install and to reinstall.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Unusual dashed box has replaced missing pictures in Iphoto after transfer...

    Hello Mac community! I recently purchased a new macbook pro OS X (Mavericks version 10.9.2) and had the mac store transfer all of my iphotos etc. from my previous macbook pro to this new one. When opening iphoto on my new mac, the majority of my pictures in my iphoto library are missing, and a strange box of dashed lines has replaced them. What does this mean? Heres whats strange..Many of my pictures did indeed transfer properly to my new iphoto library but there are random events that are completly missing pictures ( being replaced by the dashed box) Why did these pictures not transfer properly to my new laptop? How can i recover these pictures? Thanks to anyone who is willing to help me! Im lost without my pictures!

    really hard to say what was done wrong since we have no idea what was done
    Do you still have the old computer? If so transfer the iPhoto library again properly - Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.
    That probably will fix things
