Not all iphoto photos showing up in My Pictures folder

I'm wondering why all of my photos that are in my iphoto don't show up in my My Pictures folder. When I back up with Time Machine, is it backing up my entire iphoto library, or just the ones in the My Pictures folder? When I look at my backups in Time Machine, not all of my pictures are there. Can anyone help?
Thanks

Since iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is a Package File. This is simply a folder that +looks+ like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Standard Warning: 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.

Moving many but not all iPhoto photos between users

My wife and I share an iMac with separate user accounts. We'd like to move lots of photos from iPhoto in one user account to another. But after we exported original images and video from one account to a shared drive, about a third of the exported images and video failed to import into the other iPhoto account. Is there a better way to do this? Thanks.

Thanks. The error message I get is "Unreadable files. The following files could not be imported. The files are in an unrecognized format." It's odd, because they are all jpg's, they are all photos taken by iPhone 5's, and they all exported from one user's iTunes library in original format. So I wouldn't expect problems.
We previously shared a library but for us it might be easier to manage the family photos if we each keep the set of photos that we take in our own user libraries.

Not all iPhoto albums showing up in iTunes iPod options

Not sure when exactly this happened but I guess with the installation of iTunes 6.04.
Some of the albums I've created in in iPhoto do not show up in the iTunes iPod options.
I first noticed when trying to view photos on my iPod that images that had been there before were no longer available.
Anybody else experiencing this? Any idea on how to fix this?
I've already tried to restore my iPod and delete the iPod Cahe folder but that didn't help.
Thanks,
Heiko.

Heiko,
I had the same problem and noticed that the missing albums had been PhotoCast. Apparently these albums are not available for transfer to your iPod. When I Stopped Publishing the album, the problem was solved.
I hope this helps, Jim

Because you haven't read any book on iPhoto, or consulted iPhoto's Help. If you had, you'd have found this:
Importing: Copy items to the iPhoto Library
This preference is turned on by default. When you import photos from a hard disk, iPhoto copies (duplicates) the photos to the iPhoto library and uses the copies. The original photos remain untouched in their current locations.
If you have an extensive collection of photos on your computer and you want to keep your current file organization, you can have iPhoto point to your original photo files instead of importing them into your iPhoto library. To have iPhoto access your photos from their current locations on your hard disk (rather than making copies of them), deselect this checkbox. Note that if you edit one of these images in iPhoto, the edited version is saved in the iPhoto library and the original file remains untouched.
If you turn off this preference, be sure not to move the photos from the location from which they were imported. If you move the files, your iPhoto library won’t work correctly.
they must be filed/stored/saved somewhere.
Sure. They're stored in /dev/null.
It is incomprehensible
Do you want the facts, or do you want to argue?
What possible purpose could this have, I'd really like to know...
Ask someone who has 50GB worth of photos on his hard disk and wants to organise them with iPhoto if he's interested in using up an additional 50GB for the privilege.

All stacked photos show on iPad/iPhone

Has anyone worked around this?
I stack images in Aperture. I set the pick to be the result of several images and several versions. Unfortunately, on the iPad/iPhone, ALL the photos show. All the physical and virtual versions are there for all to see.
Aside from separating the pick from the others and only including the pick in an album, is there any other way to not display all photos on the iPad/iPhone?

BRILLIANT!
I'd like to thank all three of you looking, testing and responding. It appears the correct answer for me is to use the Stack Pick option in each smart album under Aperture.
I thought the problem was more pervasive, but after running several tests, that's what it was. I do still see some duplicate photos, but it appears to be unrelated to stacks. I do have photos showing on the "photos" tab, and I cannot figure out where they're loading from, but that's another issue.
I would have never though to look there, so I very much appreciate the help. I love Aperture and how configurable it can be. I'm glad someone was able to figure this out.

Not all payment history showing in FD33 or F.35

The payment history flag was set at customer level at time of go-live in 4/2007, but not all payment history shows with transaction FD33 or F.35. No changes were done to customer affecting this flag.
I was able to confirm payment history was applicable to the customer back to 2007 because the DEV environment is old backup and shows data back 2/2008 to 4/2007. The QE backup is more recent (still old) and shows data 8/2007 to 12/2008. Production only shows 4/2008 to 9/2009.
Is it possible to configure the system to show ALL payment history? How does the system determine what to show? I found another customer that shows 4/2007 to 4/2011. What's the difference between the two customers?
Regards,

SAP provides table KNB4 Customer Payment History which permits 16 entries per customer/company code. Therefore, anything older than 16 periods with values will drop off.
The customer that had more than 16 entries was because two company codes had entries. (The company code itself does not show on the screen). Still only 16 entries were permitted per company code.

First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
What computer do you have?

MacBook Pro OS X 10.6.8   I reloaded Snow Leopard and now can not find iPhoto. Can I retrieve the pictures from the system?

ProtectMac AV alerted to a trojan and was unable to remove it. The Geeks at Best Buy could not sort it and recommended reinstalling the OS so I off-loaded the files and 1200 pics from Europe to a flash drive. I reinstalled Snow Leopard, iWork, and upgraded from Office: Mac 08 to Office: Mac 2011.
Once the system was proved up the files were reloaded but the flash drive failed before the pictures could be reloaded. Is there a way to recover the pictures that were in iPhoto which is not here even with a search. All I can find is:

I could get into the registry on a widows machine safely but know nothing about a Mac. I read up a bit on the Terminal and Commands but prefer to not be trolling around with the unknown. Any idea where iPhoto went and why? Thanks! /joe

When you backed up to the flash drive did you copy the iPhoto Library that was in the Pictures folder? If you had copied it intact and then back you would have your library back.
You can try using   MediaRECOVER or SubrosaSoft FileSalvage to try to recover what's on the flash drive. Both will let you run it in demo mode to see if you can recover the photos before you have to purchase.

Iphoto 9.5.1 will not import videos with .mpg extension from my pictures folder and keep getting a OSStatus error-54. Is there a way I can import such videos to the iphone library?

iphoto 9.5.1 will not import videos with .mpg extension from my pictures folder and keep getting a OSStatus error-54. Is there a way I can import such videos to the iphone library? Pls help.

This is what that error means:
-54
permErr
Software lock on file; Not a subscriber [permissions error on file open]
Download and launch BatChmod. Put the videos into a subfolder and drag that folder containing the video files into the Batchmod window. Make sure you are the owner and have R,W, X access as well as the group. Everyone will have R only.
Check the Change ownership and privileges, Unlock and Apply to enclosed boxes and then click on the Apply button. When done try importing the files again.

Not all iPhotos sync'ing issue

I recently discovered that my iPhoto library isn't completely syncing with my ATV. I have had the same setup for over a year.
My software is all up-to-date on all devices.
I have a NAS that my library is stored on, along with my iTunes library. No issues other than some quirks of having to sometimes resync photos on my ATV.
On the photo tab when the ATV is selected in iTunes it used to show me how many photos were in each album, etc. Now it just says 0 (zero), but it still sync's 3102 out of my 3673 photos. Basically it syncs up to our summer vacation in August. I cannot for the life of me resolve this...it is like either iTunes or iPhoto has a list somewhere and it is stuck and doesn't see the new photos. Same camera, same setup, but no go. This is what I have tried so far...
Rebooted ATV...no change.
Rebooted computer...no change.
Repaired computer permissions...no change.
Unchecked sync photos and applied changes, ATV deleted all photos, reapplied syncing photos...no change...still the 3102 photos.
Sync'd iTunes with other iPhoto library, it would sync and show me quantity of photos in photo tab, then selected original iPhoto library...no change still 3102 photos and back to not showing quantities of photos in photo tab.
Rebuilt iPhoto database plus repair permissions...no change.
Now I do not have any problem viewing all photos in iPhoto and I can edit them and all is well. There is just some link that is messed up between iTunes and iPhoto which is preventing it in seeing any new pictures.
I have searched for a solution and cannot find one that I haven't tried above.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Repairing permissions was a radio button in iPhoto when you open iPhoto with option-command.
I have solved the problem...though it is quite weird the way I did it.
I knew it had to be something corrupt within the iPhoto Library. I noted that I couldn't select any pictures from my Library in my desktop/screen saver settings...when I used to be able to.
Hmmm, couldn't understand what was up. Searched and searched for a solution but never came up with anything. Any suggestions didn't work. One thing that I did do before performing a rebuild function on my library was that I duplicated it. During one of my reads on a forum someone else had a different problem with the albumdata.xml file. They too duplicated before working on the library. Out of a whim, he opened up his copy of the library and everything worked fine.
I did this too and low and behold everything works. I have no idea why this would work since it is a duplicate of my original library. I will note that when I first duplicated the library it said it couldn't copy all files. I continued anyways and then checked all the files within each library package...everything looked the same with same sizes and such. When I performed the rebuild on my original library with the repair permissions enabled, I did get a statement saying that not all permissions were correct and if I wanted iPhoto to fix it. I answered yes. The second time I did the rebuild on the same library with that enabled it gave me that statement again, which I thought was weird. I also noted errors in the logs with regard to rebuilding of the thumbnails. All this and iPhoto seemed to be function fine. However, now my photo count is a bit lower but all my photos are there.
Again, I am no expert and don't understand why duplicating the library solves this issue, but it did for me. I renamed my duplicated library to the default iphoto library name and deleted my original library. Then moved the new library to the original location.
Wonder if is should rebuild the new duplicated library or just leave well enough alone?

Not seeing iPhotos 'photos' in Photo Library on iPhone.

I have some photos in the Photos, Events folders in iPhoto.
However, they are not in the Photo Library on iPhone.
They are in the Photo Stream folder on iPhone. I am confused they are not showing up in the iPhone Photo library when they are in iPhoto.
The one thing I do notice is the photos not showing up on iPhone were created using iPhone software. Would this be the reason?
Thanks and I look forward to your reply.
...B

I'd ask that on the iPhone forum.

The photos imported in iPhoto cants be seen in my "picture fold".What is to be done so that all the photos can be seen in the picture folderr

I am not able to see the pictures imported directly to Iphoto library in "Picture Folder"( Picture folder show only the libraray and not photos. Because of this I am not able to attach photos to my email.

The following is from a post by Terence Devlin on accessing photos for use outside of iPhoto. It's the definitive treatise on the subject.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3.Show File:
a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
b. On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
