New Photos not appearing in iPhoto but are in Show Contents

Hello,
I am have a few issues with iPhoto.
1. My last two imports of photos do not appear.  the Last import is showing photos from back in 2013.  If I Show Contents I can drill down and see in Master, Original a 2014/04/12  & 13 folder with sub folders and all the pictures.  I made a not of the file names and back in Iphoto I tried to search for the image name but it did not retrn any results
2. I have had to force quit iPhoto 2-3 times in the past two days
3. Today when I open iPhoto, the Events do not show photo is is a black box.  If I scroll up and down it then shows some photos, like I would nomally see.
Do this issue seem to indicate a problem with iPhoto, is there an index type issuse.. can I rebuild iPhoto in some way
For point 1, can i delete the folders in the "Show Content" option and reimport them?
Thanks

For point 1, can i delete the folders in the "Show Content" option and reimport them?
No.  If you know the file name of the photos that are not showing do a search form them with the search tool:
If the image shows up Control (right) - click on it and select Show Event from the contextual menu.
If it does'nt kdo the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • Organizer photos not appearing on iPhoto after I downloaded them

    I have Elements 12 and some photos I downloaded from iPhoto to Organizer now are not appearing on iPhoto, and are grouped together as a folder in Organizer, instead of appearing individually in Organizer

    Memory is getting small
    By memory do you mean free disk space? How much free space do you have? It's strongly recommended that a minimum of 10GB free space be maintained (20 GB if you use iDVD a lot) for optimal system and application performance.
    By searching for thumbnails can you explain further? Do you get a message?

  • Photos not appearing in iPhoto when importing from SD card

    On the first instance of using my camera to import photos to iphoto, I used the SD card reader integral on the new iMACs; this worked fine - all photos appeared, I selected import and there they were. Since then, when I insert the SD card, it appears on the desktop and iPhoto launches. Iphoto then shows all the photos on the card that were previously imported, but not any new photos taken. If I open the SD card itself, the new pictures are there. So, why is Iphoto now not recognising new photos that I've taken?

    Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • Iphone photos not appearing in Iphoto

    When I used to plug my Iphone into my Imac, Iphoto started up and my I phone pictures appeared on the screen and I was given the option to import them, or not, into Iphoto; and I thought isn't this easy.
    Now when I plug my Iphone in it still charges like it used to but Iphoto does not appear. If I manually open I photo it acknowledges that the Iphone is plugged in but no photos from my iphone are shown.
    I don't think I have changed any settings.
    Please help!

    Hi,
    Hmm..it should automatically sync your photos. But sometimes, the problem might be from your iPhoto. Check if your iPhoto on both devices is updated. Try restarting your computer too. I think updating the iPhoto on both devices is probably the fix. Try giving it a shot.

  • Photos not appearing in iphoto after sync

    Some of my imported photos from my iPhone 4 are not showing up in iPhoto.  The import was successful and I deleted them from my phone when prompted.  Could they be somewhere else on my computer?

    I have the similar issue with iPad 2. I initially could view all the photos on the photo gallery via iphoto app, but from a few weeks back I cannot see all the photos shown on the photo gallery via the iphoto app for ipad. I have also got issues with albums created on the photo app which are showing pics from different albums all merged on the iphoto view page. Could someone help?

  • Fonts not appearing in CC, but are shown in CS5.5

    I'm having an issue where fonts are not appearing in CC, when they are active in CS5.5. There's even fonts which do show up in CC but not all the weights.
    For example: ITC Lubalin Graph. It has several weights. All appear in CS5.5 but only 'book' in CC. so that can't be a format issue can it? (TT vs PS or OT)
    It's making the transition to CC frustrating and I'm spending more time working in CS5.5 than I should, as the fonts work there fine.

    Don't seem to be any takers, so I'll ask the next obvious question... can these fonts be seen and used in other Mac, NON ADOBE apps like Word (or anything else which allows you to pick fonts on screen)?

  • I am trying to retrieve folders- they do not appear in Thunderbird, but are on the hard drive.

    1. I have used Thunderbird for 5 years or so, using at least 3 mail addresses at a time. I stow useful mails in folders and subfolders for reference. I regularly use Mozbackup.
    2. Recently I found that one of the main folders was missing, a search of the hard drive revealed that the.msf folders are there, but I dont know how to restore them.
    3. In an effort to retrieve them from a Mozbackup file, i found that email addresses 1,2 and 3 were available.
    This was not useful as email addresses 2 and 3 had been replaced by email addresses 4 and 5 3 years ago. (Mozbackup issue)
    4. Thus I now have only folders from email 1 and all other from emails 4 and 5 have gone.
    Would be grateful for any help

    re: 2.'' Recently I found that one of the main folders was missing, a search of the hard drive revealed that the.msf folders are there, but I dont know how to restore them.''
    *.msf files are indexing files. They do not contain emails.
    If there is eg:
    Inbox file with no extension is an mbox file; this is the file with emails.
    Inbox.msf is the indexing file. Does not contain emails.
    If you have imap mail account, then you would need to synchronise a subscribed folder to get a copy into your thunderbird Profile. Then it will create an mbox file.
    If the Folder was only a subscribed folder, but not synchronised, then there will not be any emails stored in your profile folder.
    Subscribed foldres only download headers and when you select to view an email, a copy of the folder or xx emails if that option is selected, is downloaded to a temporary folder which is used to get quicker access to emails. These emails are not stored in your profile, they are stored on the server.
    So, please tell us what you use.
    re: mail accounts 1, 4 and 5
    Are the mail accounts IMAP or Pop?
    If mail account 4 and 5 were IMAP mail accounts, then these emails will be stored on the server.
    So create new IMAP mail account and you should see all emails on the server.

  • Photos not appearing on iPhoto when uploading to iDVD, facebook, yahoo

    When I try to put photos on iDVD, Facebook and Yahoo mail, the iphoto continually searches for thumbnails. I have no problem with imovie. The only way I can move photos is if I send them to the desktop. I have searched for the correct settings to trash in my library/preferences, but it does not exist. Memory is getting small, but there seems to be no problem with video on iMovie.

  • New contacts not appearing in list, but show up in Spotlight?

    Anybody know why when I add a new contact they don't appear in my contacts list but I can find them with Spotlight? It's very strange. I also have contacts sync to Windows Contacts but they don't show up there, only when I search for them in Spotlight. It says they're in the group "From my PC" (not sure why) but when I go back to the group it doesn't show them! It's like they're invisible.

    I have the same exact problem.
    If I add a new contact through say the "log" or "messages" it doesn't show up. I have to physically add it from the contact "+" for it to appear under Contacts.
    I've managed to narrow it down to the fact that any new contact seems to be saved to "Exchange". I've realised that when I saved a contact from the "log" and then added it physically from contacts and ended up with a "linked" contact. One contact is "Exchange" and the other is "MobileMe".
    The "exchange" contact is the one that doesn't seem to appear under "contacts" and when you find it through spotlight search, you can't edit it.
    So basically, how can we force the phone to save locally when we add contacts outside of the "contacts app"?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is REALLY bugging me!

  • How can I turn off Recently Websites when opening new Safari window? After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed.

    How can I turn off Recently Visited Websites when opening new Safari window?
    After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed. How can I turn this function off? I do NOT want my new Safari windows to have history displayed of previous websites I visited. I only want my Favorites (on the top) to be displayed. Please help.
    Thank you for your time, patience, understanding, kindness, and concern.

    Thanks for replying, but that isn't the answer I am looking for.  Also, there is no + sign, UNLESS you do tap the overlapping boxes.
    Let me try to ask my question a little more clearly:
    When I tap the two overlapping boxes on the lower left (the option to Open New Windows), the new Window that appears will show your Bookmarked FAVORITES. But with my new iPhone 6, and the new iOS 8.0.2, when I tap the two boxes to open a New Window, my Bookmark Favorites show (as they always have and should), but below them, there is a dividing line underneath them, and it says Recently Viewed Websites, and has these websites available to tap.
    So my question is, HOW DO I TURN THESE OPTION OFF?
    *UPDATE  (10.13.14): Since I have asked this question, I no longer see these Recently Viewed Websites under my Bookmarked Favorites in my new Window tabs. So I hope that Apple fixed it, or somehow it was a mistake, or somehow I changed an Option on my iPhone 6 that stopped this for reoccurring.
    Thank you for your help bobseufert! I appreciate your concern, kindness, and the time to try to help. I am grateful.
    Have a blessed day.

  • I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto.  The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all.  How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto?

    I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto.  The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all.  How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto? Even if there are duplicates, I'd like to make sure I get all the photos from my phone into iphoto.  Thanks

    To see all the photos on the phone, including photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, deselect the "Hide Photos Already Imported" checkbox. If the camera contains photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, those photos are hidden by default.

  • My photos are not streaming from my iPhone 4 to my iPad 7.  The settings are correct and it always has before I had a recent holiday in Cuba. Those photos didn't stream and now new photos since home in Vancouver, Canada are not?

    My photos are not streaming from my iPhone 4 to my iPad 7.  The settings are correct and it always has before I had a recent holiday in Cuba. Those photos didn't stream and now new photos since home in Vancouver, Canada are not? Both are updated to IOS 7.1.2

    Hmm... It looks like they are gone forever now then. I can't think of any other way of getting them back apart from restoring from an iTunes or iCloud backup. Somebody else might be able to help but I think they're gone forever. I don't know why they were wiped from your iPod but it could be something to do with security. In the future I would recommend syncing to iTunes or iCloud to prevent it from happening again. You can always make a reservation at the Genius Bar and see what those guys can do because it seems that they are still there, they are just 'hidden' from view. http://concierge.apple.com/reservation/gb/en/techsupport/

  • Why do videos from a shared photo stream not appear in iPhoto?

    why do videos from a shared photo stream not appear in iPhoto?  Within iMovie, it appears as though videos can be imported from the iPhoto library.  However, within iPhoto there are no videos that appear within the Library.  Is it possible to import photos into iPhoto from a shared photo stream?  if not, how can videos be imported into iPhoto?

  • IOS4 photos do not appear in iphoto

    HI!!
    I have an iphone 3g with iOS4. After upgrading, photos taken from my iphone camera or even downloaded from the internet do not appear in iPhoto when I try to sync. I get a blank space with an outlined frame. Any fix? I have all updated software.

    Greetings,
    Ensure all your software is up to date (Apple Menu > Software Update).
    Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
    Home > Library > Caches (I remove the whole folder. It will be re-generated upon restart.)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
    If the issue persists try importing using the Image Capture program found in the Applications folder.
    If image capture works then try rebuilding your iPhoto Library following this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638. Use the bottom 3 rebuild options.
    If Image Capture does not work then there may be an unreadable picture in the camera roll which is blocking import. See this article for suggestions: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3195
    Hope that helps.
