My images are still in the catalog, but the Folder name has disappeared. I need to get the folder back into my structure with the images in place

Help: I have a very well defined folder structure. Folder are located in a Master location and organized by State. Inside of these are my master RAW file folders organized by location. For example: West Virginia > BIRI_RAW_2012, BLFA_RAW_2013, NERI_RAW_2013, etc. After I set up the masterful following a shoot, I go to LR and import the images. At one time I inadvertently imported the NERI_RAW_2013 masterful set as a subset of something else and it was not appearing in my LR Module in the organization I prefer. So I went to my master folders on my drive and moved the NERI file into the West Virginia state folder. When I went back to LR, as expected the NERI folder was grey with a question mark. So I right clicked to find the files and relink, and it did not work. The folder name disappeared. The RAW files are still in the catalog and show up in a missing photos search. I can't reimport because they are already there. I just need to restore my folder structure and get the images back to the right spot.

So I right clicked to find the files and relink, and it did not work. The folder name disappeared.
It didn't disappear, it moved (because you told Lightroom to move it). It moved from the incorrect folder location, to the new folder location. Please look in the new folder, in whatever location it is in, not in the old folder and the old location, and you will find the photos.

DId you fail to make sure that all of your music was on your computer before updating?
If so, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I just got an email receipt for use of my itunes account. Someone must have hacked my account. Spent all the money in it. How do I contact itunes to get my money back into my account?

I recently traveled in Egypt with my iPad. Iam back in the US, but I wanted to download an app, and I get a message that I cannot download from the Australian store, and I need to switch back to the USA how do I do this?

I recently visited Egypt with my iPad. I am now back in the USA. I tried to download a new app, and I got a message that I could not download from the Australian store. I was told I need to switch back to the USA store. I did not deliberately switch to the Australian store. Why doesn't the iPad automatically switch back to the USA.

1. Tap "Settings"
2. Tap "iTunes & App Stores"
3. Tap on your Apple ID
4.Tap "View Apple ID"
5. Enter your user name and password.
6. Tap "Country/Region."
7. Tap "Change Country/Region"
8. Select the country/region where you are located.

How could i get Mountain lion back if it came with the macbook i bought?

Hey everyone!
i bought a Macbook pro 15 mid 2012, it came with Mountain lion, could i get it back having OS X Yosemite now?
Also, and more important, how?
i heard that it's possible from Internet recovery (Restating pulsing Cmd+Option+r, i guess??), but then it would download the OS from apple (Which probably is Yosemite, i don't think their servers still have mountain lion, do they?)
it's not on the Appstore anymore (Not even Mavericks), and i really don't want to get it from a Torrent.
Thanks!

Are you sure i will get Mountain lion after recovering from the internet?
because that sounds amazing! but i am afraid i erase the whole HD and then i get Yosemite again haha
After you restart in Internet Recovery and you get to the OS X Utilities Menu, BEFORE you erase your drive look at the OS X icon to the left of the option to Reinstall OS X. THAT will tell you what your machine came preinstalled with and if it's a Mountain Lion, you're good to go.

Getting playlists from backed up iTunes combined with the current one.

I have backed iTunes several times and upgraded OS and computers. I have some playlists on the B/U drive that did not get brought forward at some time. I would like to add these to the current library and not affect the latest music access.

File > Add Folder to Library, and navigate to the folder containing the music.
If you have a group of songs you would like to keep together as a playlist, you can create the new playlist in iTunes via File > New Playlist. Open that new playlist and drag the songs into the open window. iTunes will then add them to the library and to that playlist.

The "recently used programs" section on the start menu has disappeared - how do I get it back?

On the start menu, the top few programs are those that I use frequently. There used to be a line, and underneath the line appeared the programs that I have most recently used (other than the frequently-used programs above the line). This bottom section has disappeared - how can I get it back? Running XP with Firefox 33.1.

This is a Windows question, not a Firefox question. Try using a search like www.bing.com/search?q=restore+recently+used+programs+windows+xp for help.

If I get the Apple Universal Dock , what cable do I then need to get video from the dock to my HDTV . What about audio ?

If I get the Apple Universal Dock , what cable do I then need to get video to my HDTV ? What about the audio portion ?

OK, so that part is correct. Then, do I just hookup and it automatically goes onto my computer? What will capture it, or will it simply show on my desktop and I need to open it with...what?

I have allowed remote content from one specific newsletter but images are still not displayed, is there anything further I can do?

I receive a regular newsletter from the manufacturer of a railsim. I have allowed remote content for this email address only in the security section of the options window in Thunderbird. However, the remote content (images) are still not appearing - only those little box thingies which, if I click on them, take me to various pages on the manufacturer's website. I want this facility but it's a real drag independently clicking each box to see if it is something I wish to add to my railsim.
So, having set Thunderbird to accept remote content from only this email address (all others are blocked), why is it not displaying the content?

What exactly have you got in this location.
Tools > Options > Privacy
click on 'Exceptions'.
what is entered in 'Site' and 'status'...word for word.
It may be easier to post an image.
''re: various pages on the manufacturer's website.''
Is the 'manufacturer's website - various websites or the same website that also owns the email address.
So email address may say 'info @ foobar .com'
and the website is www.foobar.com and different pages of that same website?
eg: noreply @ marshalls-seeds.co.uk Enter: marshalls-seeds.co.uk
but not sub domain - in example the 'cs' is sub domain:
eg: noreply @ cs.hm.com Enter: hm.com
else you would need to enter each sub-domain as a separate site.

Since update of my MAC my Notes no longer appear on my Mac but are still available through iCloud on my iPhone and iPad. How do I get my MAC to sync with the other devices as e'thing else has synced on my MAC through iCloud.

Since update of my Mac Book Pro my previously drafted Notes no longer appear on my Mac but are still available through iCloud on my iPhone and iPad. How do I get my Mac to sync with the other devices as e'thing else has synced on my MAC through iCloud. Also since the update Notes no longer appear as a folder in "Mail" but are now a distinct programme-is there any way of returning Notes to the Mail programme?

Thanks, but I've been on the phone with AppleCare US (where I am and live) and AppleCare UK. They continue bouncing me back and forth without helping resolve the problem.
Perhaps someones knows how to further escalate the issue at Apple?

How can I find movies created in past versions of iMovie? They are still on you tube but I want the original higher quality versions and I can't find them anymore.

Paul -
I'm sorry you've lost files, but when you set up an account as Guest, there's a message that clearly states "When a guest user logs out, all information and files in the guest account's home folder are deleted". If you want an account where files are retained, you should create an Admin or Standard type.
You will need to use data recovery techniques to see if your file can be recovered. The more that you use your computer, the greater the risk that the file will be overwritten. You can contact a professional data recovery service such as DriveSavers (which will be expensive, but you can judge the value of the file) or try something like Data Rescue. The latter has a demo which you can install to determine if your file can be recovered, and then, on purchase, you can actually recover the file.
Good luck!

I understand that many versions of any pictures are still on my computer (Masters???). If I have a final I like, how do I delete all the others that are taking up space?

I understand that many versions of any pictures are still on my computer (Masters???). If I have a final I like, how do I delete all the others that are taking up space? I have already put the originals into albums, edited them, and renamed them. Can I/should I delete all other versions located in Masters, I think? If I want to keep events, but want them to include the newly edited albums, can I delete the specific event and somehow bring the photos used in the album into a new event. Understand iPhoto just keeps space or manages photos, so how can I have events that include the edited pix and clean up disk space. Thanks.
iPhoto 11 v9.4.2
using Lion, updated, on iMac Pro.

It's very simple. If you want to use iPhoto, just let it manage things as it does. Other than that: Export from iPhoto and delete the image from iPhoto. That will remove the master and all versions.
If space is an issue... use an external disk.
Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things, deleting them or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.

Updated to LR 5.4, images now importing extremely slow. After importing and rendering images are still very slow to go through and develop. No issues in LR 5.3 which was very fast.

After importing and rendering images are still very slow to go through and develop. No issues in LR 5.3 which was very fast. Canon,Nikon, Leica and Fuji files all rendering slow. iMac 2.9 ghz 16gb RAM OSX 10.8.5. Catalogs and images are kept on external drives. Drives running fine. Really need a fix on this since I'm norally imported and processing at least 4,000 images per LR Catalog. Is there way to revert back to 5.3? I can't use 5.4 is its current state. Thanks.

Download LR 5.3 and install it
By the way, lots of people have this complaint about LR 5.4, and the advice I give is to use LR 5.3 unless you need one of the new camera models supported by LR 5.4

I have my photos in iPhoto but my iPhoto library is empty.When clicked message reads could not be opened image capture cannot open files in the photo library format. How do I get my photos back into my library?

When what is clicked?
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.
