My pictures in I photo deseppeared after installing Lion

I can't find my photo in I photo after installing Lion they all disapeared?

If you are having the same issue, then it will work for you too.  The key is activating Quicktime 7.  If you have not done this, then it will not work.  You also may need to pull the iPhoto plist. 
- close all open windows and quit iPhoto
- in the top menu, you should see "Finder" beside the apple.  You also should see "go" in the top menu
and then hold down your option key on your keyboard.  This will make a "library" appear under your home in the Go drop down.   Select the library, then go to your preferences folder. 
There, look for the following files, and drag them out to your desktop:
     - com.apple.iApps.plist
     - com.apple.iMovieAPP.plist
- select "go" in the top menu bar and select utilities
- launch Quicktime 7 by doubleclicking it
- you should see a small quicktime window appear
- quit Quicktime
- launch iPhoto and test the video playback

  • Why am i getting poor quality photo prints after installing lion using canon pixma 6120?

    After installing Lion, I began experiencing poor quality photo prints on my Canon Pixma 6120 printer.  Prior to Lion, my picture prints were all high quality.  Now, anything black in the picture is faded.

    Lion should not cause the blacks to print faded. The printer drivers used by Snow Leopard and Leopard are the same version as that used by Lion.
    For starters I suggest you check that you have the latest version installed. This Apple KB article shows the MG6100 series has v10.51.2.0 as the latest version.
    I also recommend you do a Nozzle test print. This can be executed from the MG6120 control panel or via the Printer Utilties window (via Print & Scan, select the printer and then open Options & Supplies and then select the Utilties tab).
    If the nozzle test print is okay but the blacks still look faded when printing photos (note the printer has two black ink tanks - one for photos and one for text) then try a reset of the printing system. This will remove the MG6120 from the Print & Scan pane but not the supporting drivers. So you will only have to add the printer again.

  • Where is my I Photo Library in Time Machine Backups as I seem to have lost photos after installing Lion?

    Can anybody tell me how I can locate my photos from I Photo in the Time Machine backups as I seem to have lost most of 2011 after installing Lion.
    Many thanks

    To recover individual photos open iPhoto and use the File ➙ Browse Backups menu option.
    Click to view full size
    That will take you into iPhoto in Time Machine where you can search for the phtoos and restore them.
    To restore the entire library, close iPhoto, go to the Pictures folder, enter Time Machine, go back in time till you get the library you want to restore, select it and use the Restore button.

  • HT201317 when do photos download to my photo stream after installing it on my PC

    Hi,
    When do photos download to my photo stream after installing it on my PC?
    I have already waited for over an hour and my iphone is connected to W-Fi
    Would my McAfee have something to do with the delay?
    Thanks.

    Photo stream photos will be deleted once you reach 1,000 unless you import them into iPhoto. You can set your iPhoto preferences to import them automatically.

    After installing Lion, iMovie09  no longer sees my Canon AVCHD.  It finds photos. Anybody found a way to fix this?

    Is that with the camera directly connected or with the card in a card reader?
    I haven't tried in a while, but I know it worked in Lion at some point. I did all my uploading with a card reader, so that may be the difference.

  • IWeb not showing iPhoto library after installing Lion

    It keeps on showing, "Loading photos".

  • Time capsule problems after installing Lion

    After installing Lion, I need to regularly shut down iMac(Intel) in order to have Time capsule do the next backup. This method allows me to manually back up the automatic function to back up no longer exists. Also unable to connect to the backup disk.

    Mine needs backing up immediately after its just backed up!! Its crazy!! IOS5 was supposed to be free but as a result I had to pay to upgrade to Lion then I had to pay to upgrade to iPhoto 11 just to be able to transfer photos from my iphone!! On top of this, Lion runs as slow as a PC, asks to backup constantly, I'm losing iDisk and iWeb next year and they've removed the bounce facility from Mail. Blinding. Well done Apple - who's brainwave was Lion and IOS5? Bill Gates?

  • After installing lion, my computer is running slower and having delays connecting to network

    please help me resolve my problem.  after installing lion my system was running great for about a week.  suddenly it is having trouble connecting to the internet, running slow and the history pages are appearing without asking for them..  unable to get my homepage when opening up, just get a white screen. if i go to the history, i can get the homepage.  Only able to access my homepage by waiting for ever or getting it from the history.
    please help

    Peter, thank you for responding.  No, I am not referring to the initial start up.  I downloaded Yosemite over a week ago and feel it is running very slow when switching websites.  Also, I have experienced numerous hangups causing me to force quite much more than before.
    I just cleared my Safari history (I am guessing that is what you meant by "clean the old internet-caches" and restarted Safari.  I will see how it goes.
    I uses a file called "Desktop" from my IPhoto library for my desktop pictures. It contains about 20 pictures.  I configured it that way in Preferences, but it seems whenever I shut down and restart my computer it reverts to the generic picture of Yosemite.  As for the question mark and "Update Needed" showing on my startup log in screen, I think I fixed that by changing my password in Preferences.
    No that I have cleared the Safari history, I will see how things go.

  • My mac has become very slow and crashes frequently after installing Lion

    My mac has become very slow and crashes frequently after installing Lion. I have a 4 GB DDR3 ram and 2.4 GHz Processor. The Mac was running just fine on Snow Leopard. Has anyone else faced this issue?
    Any suggestions on how to solve it?
    Thank you

    I refer you to the TM expert

    As a extra precaution I would copy the user file folders of Music, Documents, Pictures etc to another external drive and disconnect, just in case.
    Always maintain TWO backups of your data at all times, since your messing with one, you need another until your back at two again.

  • Is there a way to darken the dates (numbers) on ical. After installing Lion I can barely read the dates of the month in ICal

    Is there a way to darken the dates (numbers) on the ICal calender. I can barely read mine after installing Lion.

    I should note that the time stays on the left of the event name when I re-enter the text (which I had to do all the time before I found the "show event times" button) so I feel like there's a way.

  • Unable to load many web based games after installing lion

    After installing Lion, I am unable to launch several online games (Pogo e.g.). What compatibility issues are being addressed?

    I didn't think reinstalling was gonna do me any good except for getting rid of every single thing I have ever installed since getting this MBP.  I'm thinking it has to be something that is on my computer causing this, especially since it only affects my ability to get to this one site and I only started seeing this problem yesterday.
    So, I went ahead and disabled all my Chrome extensions and I don't have any Safari extensions at all.  That didn't fix my issue.
    I've been trying to run Sophos on here, thinking that maybe I've got a Trojan or some kind of malware, but it never seems to finish a full scan of my hard drive.  That "Plugin" that I mentioned above has me very suspicious, except that whatever that is, it's been on my computer since basically when I first got it.  Maybe it's malicious, or maybe it's just a poorly named piece of software.  In any case, it got updated last night around 11pm, about the same time I noticed my problem.  After trying everything I have, it's hard for me to overlook that as coincidence.
    But, where do I go to gain more information about what that could be?  I should mention that this MBP is basically my first Apple computer.  I've been a PC guy (still am mostly) forever, but I finally dove in and got a Mac to start iOS development.  So I'm sure there are ways to get more information than I am currently aware of.
    Also, apologies if I posted this in the wrong forum.

  • Although I am new to mac, I am not new to computers and purchasing online.  I can't sign into the App store after installing Lion.  I have had to change my password 4 times in 2 days .  I am so sick of this.  I am trying to buy a tutorial for Lion.

    I recently downloaded Lion and since have had nothing but problems with my new i-Mac.  My problem with the App store is only one issue.  Has anyone out there had any trouble with their components after installing Lion 10.7???????   After several hours on the phone with a tech my situation isn't any better.  I think the tech is sick of talking with me.  He was supposed to call me today and the phone never rang.   He told me he was working on something to repair my problems and needed to talk with engineers.  How long could that take????   If it wouldn't hurt the person who gifted me this i-Mac, I would give it back.

  • How do I recover space on my hard drive after installing Lion

    My hard disk is full after installing Lion - before it had 80 GB free out of 320 GB.
    Maybe it happened during the disabling of File Vault from Snow Leopard - I had to move a lot of files to get space enough for decrypting before using the encryption on Lion.
    I have seen somewhere that the multi version way of saving files is what takes up the space and that it can be disabled.
    How?

    Are you sure you don't have duplicate copies of the things you moved?
    Did the old sparsebundle containing the encrypted version of your home folder get deleted?
    If you're using Time Machine, the space may be taken up by Local snapshots.  See #30 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
