My MacBook is broke and all my photos is on my AppleTV
Hi!
My MacBooks harddrive failed And I have no backup of all my photos ... other than the copy which is on my AppleTV . Is there any way to get the photos of my AppleTV and back to my new empty macbook drive?
Sure, I have read of all the the hacks you can install on a AppleTV - but I dare not risc it, since the AppleTV now is the only place I got my photos.
Best Regards,
Magnus
I open up the AppleTV. Took the harddisk out and mounted it on my macbook. It was pretty easy. Pictures are stored in a special directory structure on the AppleTV, but I was able to restore mig photos - but orignal filesnames were lost.

I have a macbook pro with only 128gb of hard drive. I have lightroom installed and all my photos on an external hard drive. Can I store my lightroom library on the external hard drive too?
Yes. Find the LR catalog file by looking in Edit/Catalog Settings/General. Close LR and navigate to that spot. The catalog file is the one that ends in .lrcat - move it to wherever you want. Next to the .lrcat file is a subfolder called Previews.lrdata. You can move that over as well, but if you don't LR will generate new previews. Double-click on the .lrcat file in its new home and LR will open with that catalog. Set Preferences to When Starting Up Use Most Recent Catalog.

I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?
And I cant work out why all of my pictures are not diplaying in iphoto?
Is this iPhoto on your Mac? Are you referring to the photos that were in your iPhoto LIbrary prior to the upgrade to iPhoto 11? If so then apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - 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.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - 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.
If that's not what you're referring to then you should describe what is happening in more detail. Remember we can't see your Mac or your iPhone so need detailed and accurate descriptions of what you're experiencing.
Also we need infomartion like do you have an iCloud account and are you logged into it on all of your devices, iPhoto and Mac? do you have Photo Stream enabled on both.

Have just updated my phone with the latest update and all my photo's have gone to internal storage. how do i get them back in to my camera roll so i can view them on my phone.
Pictures are not designed to be kept in the Camera Roll... that is simply temporary storage for when you are taking pictures. Try reading this and this to see if it clears it up for you.

My father's macbook just broke and i suggested an IPad 2. Is it possible to have an IPad 2 without a computer to sync it with?
Once iOS 5 is released this fall you won't really need a computer to sync to, especially with the introduction of iCloud. http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/

I just purchased a new iMac, and can't get into my Wordpress blog. The username and password work on my old Macbook, iPhone4, etc, and all my other password-restricted sites are accessible...just not Wordpress. Ideas? New to all this...Thanks! JP
Try holding down the Shift key in Windows when opening iTunes. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to an existing one. The default location for your iTunes library is in C:\Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\ (or C:\Username\Music\iTunes\ in Vista). Look in there and see if you have more than one library file (they have the extension .itl) If you have more than one try opening them in turn, you may find your original library is still intact: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file

I just updated my iphone with iOS 5 and all my photos in my Camera Roll are gone. What gives...
I just update my iphone with the new iOS 5 and all my photos in my Camera Roll have disappeared. I did use iTunes for the upgrade. Are the photos in another place?
If you have failed to make sure that any apps purchased on the iphone were transferred to your computer before updating, then you will have to redownload.
Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links. -

As the title says, my previous macbook broke, and now I have a new computer...PC :/ and I can't sync my iphone 4s to the computer properly wihtout losing the data on the iphone. It says i have to wipe my iphone.
Only iTunes content and any photos transferred from the computer that was used for syncing the iPhone.
Transfer your iTunes library from your computer's backup which should include other important data such as documents and photos, etc. -
Macbook OSX 10.5.8, iPhoto 8.1.2. I just tried to import some photos using Nikon software (View NX2) for the first time. When I next looked into iPhoto it was empty (so was iTunes but that's another story). I had backed up photos fairly recently but don't use time machine. Searched in vain everywhere and must have done something wrong because iPhoto wouldn't then open at all, saying it was unreadable. After a lot more attempts to recover I uninstalled iPhoto and the receipts and reinstalled from my original disc. It seemed to be ok and imported some photos from my iphone but as soon as the import is complete iPhoto crashes and when opened again it is empty. Have tried this several times and have shut down and have tried rebuilding with the alt and cmd buttons but nothing seems to help. Any ideas?
not a reply but not sure how to add something to my own thread! It seems that Desktop was damaged too as when I try to open it a screen says there is no application selected to open Desktop with. No idea what I should choose! Any help appreciated, have really made a mess of my MacBook this time.

Before the arrival of my new iMac due to damaging my old one, I decided to delete some photos and tidy them up a bit so that the migration would be faster. In my launchpad suddenly two iPhoto icons appear and one said iPhoto (copy). Unfortunately I deleted this without checking it and emptied the trash can which then said 'deleting 3500 photos'. I had deleted a lot of photos so did not realise that I was deleting all my photos and let it continue. When I fired up the mac the next morning the iPhoto would not open and made me set up a new library which of course had nothing in it! Before you ask;
1) I had not backed them up (I know feel free to shout at me!!). You will be pleased to know I have now bought an external HD BIG lesson learnt.
2) I have tried to rebuild iPhoto following advice on the forums, this just rebuilt the new one.
3) I have tried to find the old iPhoto file by following advice on apple support and you tube.
4) I have recovered some photos from photo stream and luckily I had lots on Facebook that I have been able to pull through. I still have about 2000 missing
Everyone I speak to says don't worry it should be on your hard drive! But I am worried because I can't see anything anywhere that relates to my old file. Any help or advice would be GRATEFULLY received.CSOUND is correct.
Get a copy of Data Rescue 4 by PROSOFT.
I have used older versions in the past with some success.
However, if this is a hardware failure of the hard drive, no data recovery software would be able to recover much data.
I lost the magnetic heads to a laptop drive many years ago and nothing worked.
Of course the computer would not boot either.
Be sure to read the directions before loading any software including Data Rescue.
You want to avoid using that machine so data that you want is not overwritten.
Good luck.
After doing this, be sure to get a pair of external hard drives.
Use one for time machine.
Use the other for a SuperDuper bootable back up.
Finally, sign up for an internet back up service such as Crash Plan.
With three backup schemes, your data should be preserved for many years.
If one mechanically fails the other backup should work.
If your computer systems and hard drives are destroyed by a fire or stolen, the internet backup will save you. -
If I change to a IMAC will I be able to upload all my photos and word and excel documents? Also does it have USB ports like I have already used?
Is there a DVD player on IMACS? It is scary making the move until I am sure I can use everything I already have. I also have NEAT for all my recepits also.When the new Mac first starts up, you get the opportunity to migrate your files from another computer, including a PC. This link tells you how to do it from Windows.
As for the iMac's features, you can look through this website to get all the details.
It is possible to install Windows on a Mac and run your Windows applications within it. It's also possible to use programs that are for the Mac which can work with most MS Office files. One good example is LibreOffice.
