Need to recover Facebook albums from iPhoto

I was using my sisters MacBook to import photos from my iPhone to her iPhoto. She deleted ALL of the albums from her iPhoto, and it not only deleted the photos i had just imported, but it deleted ALL of my FACEBOOK ALBUMS!!!! How do I recover ALL of my Facebook Albums and photos i uploaded?

  but deleting iPhoto Facebook albums does not delete albums on facebook.com.
It does next time you log into facebook.The idea is that you're using iPhoto to manage the material on FB and Flickr, so changes on iPhoto are synced to FB...

  • Duplicate/Triplicate photos uploaded to Facebook albums from iphoto

    When I upload photos from Iphoto to Facebook, the same photo is uploaded two or even three times, and I then have to delete the duplicate & triplicate photos. How can I prevent this from happening? Thank you very much!

    Give renewing your iPhoto preference file a shot -
    A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
    This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

  • Is there anyway to recover Facebook albums deleted in iPhoto?

    Here's my problem. I was sorting through a bunch of pictures in iPhoto. I deleted the facebook albums in iPhoto, not realizing it would delete them off facebook. Is there any way to recover these albums so that they go back on facebook? Preferably with any comments people left on facebook intact? Thanks.

    i have got the same problem only thing is the albums were never on my macbook just the album covers.
    basically my g/f used my macbook pro and found a picture in iphoto she wanted and uploaded it from iphoto so linked her account to my iphoto. i was doing a bit of cleaning up and thought id just remove the link. well it turns out its deleated all the facebook albums on her profile. ive got time machine back ups but its only got one photo from each album in it.
    can anyone please help.

  • Uploading albums from iPhoto to Facebook isn't working

    I used to be able to upload an album from iPhoto on my mac to Facebook, now this doesn't work.
    I used to be able to select the album, click on the Facebook icon, select who can see my photos, then click publish, but publish is now greyed out. Why.
    Also, when I click on the existing Facebook Albums in iPhoto, I get an error message saying the log in details need updating, but it doesn't point me in the direction of where I can update this information.
    How can I resolve this?
    Thanks
    Regards
    Robert

    Have this problem too with Lightroom! The sudden spike in views for this post would suggest that it's only a recent thing. Have you notified Facebook of this?

  • I'm trying to order some photo albums from iphoto for chistmas gifts and there is a notification that keeps popping up telling me I need to send to a p.o. box, the mailing address IS a po box and it still won't let me order. What do I do?

    I've not seen this message but would think that it might say that you can not send to a PO Box - exactly what is the error message?

  • I'd like help troubleshooting moving albums from iPhoto to iPhone

    Help! I'm having trouble moving iPhoto (OS 10.7.4) albums/photos back to iPhone 4S (OS 5.1.1). I previously uploaded all photos from iphone to iphoto and parsed into albums. I deleted all photos from iphone. I followed apple instructions to move selected albums from iphoto to iphone, and iTunes shows synched, but no albums or images on displaying on my iPhone.
    Thanks in advance for assistance!

    It is not an iPhoto library-- it's just seperate pictures on a USB stick. I never said you can run a library on a USB stick.
    Free up space on my HD
    Move current photos to my "Mac My Book" 1TB
    Insure moving forward all new photos are stored and accessed to and from the My Book
    This is clearly a request to move the iPhoto library to an external hard drive and run it there
    The instructions for doing that are
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
    It is NOT possible to do that on a USB Stick!

    I'm out of space on my hard drive. How do I move move entire photo albums from iphoto and save them to an external drive to free up space?

    You do not move the albums - you move the entire iphoto library intake as a single entity
    Make sure your external drive is formatted Ma OS extended (journaled) - then

  • I cannot delete albums from iPhoto

    I cannot delete albums from iPhoto.any advice?

    Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 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. Basic things like :
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained 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.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. More information means you get better assistance.

  • Seven of my albums from iPhoto 9.5.1 are no longer visible. The photos are still in iPhoto - is there a way to get the metadata back?

    Seven of my albums from iPhoto 9.5.1 are no longer visible. The photos are still visible in iPhoto, but the albums are completely gone (another 10  albums are still visible). The missing albums are visible in iPhoto Library Manager (I downloaded the free version and when it loaded the library the missing albums were visible)
    About 6 months ago 4 different albums disappeared and I assumed my kids had accidentally deleted them; however, they haven't been allowed to touch the computer since then, so I can't blame them this time! Last time I lost albums I spent hours re-creating them but I am hoping that there is an easier way of getting the metadata to function again - I know I could create a new library with iphoto Library Manager but I would have to buy the full version and can't afford to do that.
    Not sure if it has anything to do with updating the application? (I updated recently and I'm not sure exactly when the albums disappeared.

    Use the rebuild function in iPhoto Library Manager. That does not require a purchase. (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.

    You can't.
    And advertising that you are breaking the rules with your account here in public just alerts Apple that they have a user who believes that the rules don't apply to them.

  • HT4236 I've run out of room on my hard drive. I bought an external drive and exported all my albums to the external drive then deleted the albums from iPhoto. I want to sync both from my ext drive and new albums in iPhoto. No dice. Help!

    I've run out of room on my hard drive. I bought an external drive and exported all my albums to the external drive then deleted the albums from iPhoto. I want to sync both from my ext drive and new albums in iPhoto. My photos on the devices get wiped out when I sync to iPhoto since I deleted all the albums. But when I sync to my hard drive (where I maintained the album structure) the photos are copied to my iPad but lose all the hierarchy and folder structure. Now I have to scroll through thousands of photos to try to find the one I'm looking for. Before I sync any more devices I want to know the following: 1) can I restore the album structure on my iPad by using the photo cache? 2) is there a way to sync both new iPhoto albums AND pictures in the folders in my hard drive? And 3) how can I keep the photo hierarchy structure from my hard drive intact on my devices?

    Don't do that.
    Copy /Photos/Photo library/ to the external.
    Hold Option and launch iPhoto.
    Select Choose library and select the Photo library you copied to the external.

  • I need to recover deleted data from my iPhone 4S but don't have a recent backup. I thought by pressing sync on my macbook this would back up-but I was wrong. There are no backups on my macbook and the latest backup on iCloud was Jan 2012. Please help

    I need to recover deleted data from my iPhone 4S but don't have a recent backup. I thought by pressing sync on my macbook this would back up…but I was wrong. There are no backups on my macbook and the latest backup on iCloud was Jan 2012. My mum died in May and I had lots of text messages that I wanted to keep. I really want to get them back. Is there any way at all I can get that deleted data from the phone?

    Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer.  As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
    You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you.  I'm sure you'll pay, however.
    Let this be a very important lesson learned.
    Best.

  • I cannot view/sync albums from iPhoto on my iPhone whilst iCloud photo library is on. Why? and is there a way of doing it.

    I cannot view/sync albums from iPhoto on my iPhone whilst iCloud photo library (beta) is on. Why? and is there a way of doing it. It is especially frustrating given I have subscribed to more space yet I have to turn it off to view!

    I found the answer in another discussion group, so I have just erased everything through settings on my new iphone and in Backups on itunes, I have clicked on restore back up. So it appears to be working.

  • Trying to add album from iphoto into idvd slideshow.  Not all photos are loading.  Message "creating thumbnail images...(31 remaining).  Been there a long time.  What is wrong?

    trying to add album from iphoto into idvd slideshow.  Not all photos are loading.  Message "creating thumbnail images...(31 remaining).  Been there a long time.  What is wrong?

    Open your iPhoto Library, go to that particular album and verify that you can view the full sized version of each image by double clicking on them.  Report back with the results.

  • I tried moving an album from iPhoto to Pictures.  It took the entire iPhoto Library.  Now I can't use it, and I cannot open it.  How do I get it back to just iPhoto?

    I tried moving an album from iPhoto to Pictures, but the entire iPhoto Library moved.
    I now cannot open iPhoto.  How can I get it back?

    A folder named Library popped up in Pictures.  I didn't want the entire Library, just the one album.
    When I open the Library Folder in Pictures, I get sub folders dated with years.
    When I open the subfolders, I just keep getting more folders.
    This looks like you were viewing your iPhoto Library; the contents of the Masters folder. Is your original iPhoto library still there?
    Where do you keep your iPhoto library? In the default location in your "Pictures" folder?
