Missing thumbnails. Any way to rebuild them?

I converted over a large (~150gb) Aperture library to Photos and most of my thumbnails are missing. Does anyone know of a way to have these rebuilt? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Note: I have already tried repairing the library. This sadly did not help.
Thanks

At least a month. I was on a beta version of it before the public release. For more detail, the thumbnails disappeared after doing a Time Machine recovery at one point (after a cloud issue resulted in most of my photos deleting themselves). All the content is there, but images only appear if viewing in the individual 1:1 view.
I'm thinking I may have some rare glitch related to importing on one of the betas. The answer is probably just to start a new photos library from Aperture (I still have he old library), but I wanted to see if anyone knew any tricks to fix this (I've put some time into sorting the new library, and have added some photos).
Thanks for the reply.

I've got a iPod classic 80g I've got loads of pictures on there and I want to get them off. I've tried something where the files I get off come up as thumbnails which I can't open. Is there any way of getting them off and viewing them as a normal photo?

Iphoto deleted all my masters, any way to recover them? PLEASE HELP!!

Iphoto deleted all my masters and I cant seem to find them, is there any way to recover them? Iphoto 11 version. The only pictures that are left are some previews and some thumbnails.

Try the following:
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 Library ➙ 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.
Note: your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
If that fails continue with:
Starting over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Open the library package like this.
2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
Note: your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

Iphoto erased all my pictures from my macbook air. I have no back up, is there any way to recover them? Now it is clear why Maverick is free...

iphoto erased pictures from my macbook air. I have no back-up. Any way to recover them?

A few things to check:
Do you have more than one user account? If so, are you signed in to the correct account?
Are there multiple iPhoto Libraries? (Hold down the option key, while opening iPhoto) Also, check the Trash, I've heard of iPhoto libraries ending up there for some reason.
If you are certain the library you are looking at is the correct one, try the iPhoto Library First Aid options by, quitting iPhoto (if it is open), then, holding down the command and option keys, launch iPhoto. Choose the option to Repair Permissions and click Repair. If that doesn't work, repeat the steps and choose Repair Database. And lastly, if the first two do not solve the problem, try Rebuild Database. *It is very important that you have a backup prior to performing any of the troubleshooting steps.*

TS1702 All my entries in 'notes' have disappeared. I had several different 'notes' entered over the last few months but when I opened the app recently, all of them had gone. Any way of getting them back?

All my entries in 'notes' have disappeared. I had several different 'notes' entered over the last few months but when I opened the app recently, all of them had gone. Any way of getting them back? This has happened once before but they just popped back in a few days later. No such luck this time.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic. I suspect this is your problem
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I synced my iphone to a new pc and it updated and a few hundred photos seem to be lost. Is there any way to get them back?

Hi i synced an iphone to a new pc and it updated and restored the iphone to its original settings. some photos were still there after but a few hundred are now missing. Is there any way to get them back?

restore from a backup dated prior to when you synced to the new computer.
ideally... were you backing up to icloud? if so, erase all content and settings and restore from a backup in icloud dated prior to when you synced. Camera roll backs up I believe and those photos will show back up

Also, is there any way to save a group or an open session and then restore it later?

History menu, if it was destroyed in the last session
then use "Restore Previous session:" and then restore all windows also from the history menu.
If done in this session try the restore all windows under the history menu.

I accidently deleted half my music in itunes (600 songs) - and yes, emptied the trash. It's all on my ipod touch...ANY way to get them back??!!

HELP! I bought a new Mac (my first) and used my nano as an external hard drive to transfer my itunes library from my old PC to the new Mac, then re-synced the nano. However, something happened when I transferred because it duplicated every song. So I went through the entire library (about 1400 songs X 2) and deleted the duplicates, then emptied the trash. Then when I tried to listen to the music, I found that about half of the songs cannot be located! I have my entire library still on my ipod ouch - is there any way to transfer them??!! Somebody help me please!!!

If meta data LUN is totaly destroied , is there any way to rebuild the data from the video LUN

If meta data LUN is totaly destroied , is there any way to rebuild the data from the video LUN ????

What happened to your metadata? Are you sure the metadata is gone?
In theory, file carving could be attempted on the data LUNs, but you would need a tool that understands how Xsan lays out data across LUNs in a stripe group and hope your fragmentation isn't too bad. I doubt such a tool exists, but if one does it almost certainly is not publicly available. You should probably contact a data recovery service with experience recovering data from Xsan. Do that before you do anything else if this data is really important.

I suggested contacting Compub in Nassau St as the info is priceless and worth the trouble of trying to regain?
Any thoughts? The poor lady is very distress

If she has backed up her iPhone she can replace that iPhone and set up the new iPhone from her backup.
You can put the iPhone that went into water into a plastic baggie with either new silica gel packets (preferred) or raw rice and let it sit for 4 - 5 days. After that time remove the phone and connect it to power for at least a half hour. While it is still connected to power reset it by holding down the power and hold button, wait for the Apple logo then let go of the buttons. Might take several tries. If it revives immediately back it up.

Having been without my Mac for a month I've been using iCloud mail. The new mail boxes that I set up there do not automatically show up in Mail on my replacement Mac. Is there any way to transfer them from ICloud mail to Mail?

sure pretty simple. make a backup of your current settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
then import pics to computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
you may need to save pics to camera roll first
then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes
Peace, Clyde

HT1766 I just got a 5s and had taken some pictures. Then I plugged it into my PC and set it up using my previous backup from my iPhone 4. Now the pictures I had taken are gone, is there any way to get them back?!

Sorry no as you wipe the current data when you restore from your backup.

TS2529 I had backed-up my iPhone and when I try to restore it it says that the back-up is corrupt or the iPhone is not compatible. I had a bunch of pictures that I need from that restore. Is there any way to get them back? I did the back-up to my Macbook

If the backup is corrupt, there is nothing that can be done.
For what reason did you choose to not copy the pictures off the device to a computer prior to attemping an update or whatever caused the need to restore? iPhones are not intended as sole storage of any media.
