Photo edits not visible in finder

Although I have ticked "automatically write changes into xmp" I cannot see any of my edits if I see or open my photos through the file manager.
Why can't I see my changes?
Please note that I'm still using a trial version. Could that have something to do with it?

The trial is a fully working program, just with a deadline of 30 days.
The images are left untouched, until you export. Your edits are saved in the LR database as well as in the XMP sidecar if selected as you did. To see the changes the edits need to be applied to the images. This can be done in LR by exporting. Other programs can only show your changes if they can read your edits from the XMP sidecar and apply these to the images. Finder will always show your original images.
You should read some more about the main principles of LR, specially 'Nondestructive Editing'.

Yosemite: Thumbnails not visible in Finder

I ran into a strange problem immediately after updating to Yosemite.
I have a 2014 mbp dual-video, 16 gb ram.
In any folder on my drive icons are not visible. They are there, I can drag and copy-paste folders and files, but the finder only shows a blank white window. Everything looks normal in List, Columns or Cover Flow modes.
I did a safe mode boot and restarted normally and everything went back to normal, including visible icons. But now I have the problem with an external ExFat drive. Anyone know how to solve this or what's going on?

Here's my problem, that continues with newly created folders. You can see that this folder has 5 items in it, with one selected. But they are not visible when Finder is set to icon mode.
Also, when I drag a corner of the Finder window to make it bigger, i get some "dragging" visual artifacts that are not visible in the screenshots but appear on my screen.

Applications not visible in finder

I loaded Mountian Lion on to my Macbook Pro and now my applications subfolder is not visible in Finder? I can't seem to find it anywhere? Any ideas where it went to?
Thanks!

Your Applications folder should be in Macintosh HD/Applications.
Not sure what you mean by a sub-folder?
Can you launch your apps from the Dock?

External hard drive not visible in Finder or Disk Utility

Hi everyone,
My Wester Digital 2TB external hard drive has disappeared, so to speak, with all my photos. I work as a freelance photographer. Mostly on Lightroom 5.6
When I plug it in, with firewire, I can feel the disk rotating normally however it does not appear in finder or disk utility.
I've tried using a USB cable, restarting my mac, forced restart, changing firewire ports (HD has 2 ports), plugging the HD into a different laptop and nothing.
Ive also searched Finder prefrences and visibility is enabled.
I have no idea what could have caused this as I was using the HD the night before. I didnt pullout without properly ejecting. Maybe the HD is full or almost, but I dont think that would the cause of these troubles.
I'm using a late 2011 Macbook Pro OS X 10.9.4
Any suggestions??
Thanx

An update for anyone who can help me:
I have tried the external hard drive in other computers (mac and windows), each time I get the same problem above.
I have removed the HD from the enclosure and purchased a docking station for it (3.5" SATA). When I plug it in to the laptop it disconnects itself straight away before it is visible. With the windows computers it installs the drivers and says that the device is ready to use, then disconnects before it shows up.
As the HD is not visible there is no option to re-format or anything.
This is very frustrating as I was using the HD with no issues and it randomly disconnected and I have not been able to access since.
Thanks in advance for any help.

My new folders are not visible in Finder

New folders (generated by a application, SABNZB+, that runs in the background as a web service) will only show up in Finder once I have run a search in Finder and are not visible before. I have tried a disk repair and a permissions rebuild.
Any ideas anyone?

Yes they do, no problems there.
I am starting to believe it might have to do with the fact that the folders are created by an unarchiver that reassembles files after they are downloaded from my newsgroup. The strange thing is that there never used to be a problem, it started somewhere around the second update to mountain lion. But it could also be a new version of the application SABNzb+, I am not sure.
What is also weird is this: I can find the folder when doing a search in Finder, then open the folder, all files are there and the folder is then visible normally.
Edit: The files are reassembled by the unarchiver on the main Macintosh HD, then moved to a different volume and deleted from the originating volume.

Camera not visible in Finder

Just installed 10.5.1 and iPhoto update.
When I connect my camera to my iMac, iPhoto opens....but the camera is not visible in the Finder !
Any suggestions ? Or is this a new bug?
Best regards,
Roeland

You are asking about iPhoto on your Mac, right? And not about iPhoto on your IOS device? This is the iPhoto on IOS forum. I have asked the community hosts to relocate your post to the iLife iPhoto forum - you will get more help there.
What is your iPhoto version? Assuming you are having iPhoto '11, you'd should see the photos in the iPhoto Library package using the Finder, if they are there; but dont move them, only browse them, if you can find them.
Reveal your iPhoto Library and in the Finder; it is probably in your "Pictures" folder, ctrl-click it, select "Reveal Package Contents". In the Finder window that will pop up, select the "Masters" folder. This scores the original images, organized by the date of the "Import Session" o f the event.
If your images are still there, I'd copy - not move! - them to a folder on your Desktop and then try to rebuild the iPhoto library. Make a backup of the iPhoto library, then hold down the key combionation option-command and select "rebuild database" from the dialog that pops up.

Photo album not visible on all devices.

Hi,
I created an ablum on Cloud and moved many photos into it from one for my devices (iphone 4s) and this ablum was visible from all my devices. I used to view/delete them from all my devices (2 iphones and 1 pad) which use the same appleid. But recently I noticed that this ablum is not visible from one of the iphones, however the other iphone and ipad can see this ablum. I also tried creating a new ablum and this is visible to all the three devices but not the first one. What should i do to make the older ablum visible on the iphone which use the same apple id as other devices. Please help or give your suggestions.
Thanks,
Kumar

Many thanks to the dev team at iFunBox. Using this application I was able to drill down into the iOS file system, find the photos, and make a backup to my local hard drive.
As said before, we don't know how the photographer transferred the photos, but being as they were in an album, I assume iPhoto.
When drilling down into the file system, there was a Camera folder(even though there is no camera) which contained all of the photos which were visible on computers.
Addtitionally, there was another folder called Photos which housed all of the vacation photos in folders labeled "Fxx" xx being a reference number. All 1472 photos in this directory were not visible on computers.

After Import photos are not visible in IPhoto

I have a problem with IPhoto 8 (7.1.5)
When I import photos from either the Iphone or a Photo DVD the photos are first visible. After closing and restarting Iphoto, Iphoto tells me, that some photos are not in the liabrary and will be recovered.
Both, the imported photos as the recovered, are not visible. If I'm opening the library file, the photos are still there and I can look at them.
Do you know how I can fix it?
(Background information: My HD crashed and I've got a knew one, the restorage of the photos was successful the problem started afterwards)
Thank you!

No. He problem is with the library. Re-installing the app will make no difference to that.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Internal Hard Drive is not visible in Finder or Desktop or anywhere

The problem first and then the details.
I cannot see my systems hard drive, No icon shows up on the desktop, and it is not visible in the Finder.
It does however show up in Disk Utility.
I have repaired permissions and repaired the disk, both from within the OS and also from the install disc during a reboot.
Not here are some details. This is both a fresh install of the OS AND a brand new drive. I just had it installed today and then reinstalled the OS.
While going thru the process of reinstalling all my software, something froze for no good reason, and I eventually had to force quit the finder and when the system wouldn't shut down, I had to physically power it off.
Upon rebooting, my systems HD is no longer visible.
I suppose I can try and reinstall again, but I feel like there has to be a smarter way to deal with this.
Any suggestions?

Have you confirmed that in Finder > Finder menu > Preferences > General and Sidebar tabs that the boxes to show hard disks are checked?
Assuming they are checked, you may a victim of the 'invisible drive' problem. See Francine's helpful tutorial for the fix:

External hard drive not visible in Finder, but is operating

iMac, 2 Gb RAM, Snow Leopard 10.6.4.
It has 4 external USB drives attached through a powered hub. All of a sudden, after about a year, one of them no longer shows up in ‘Finder’. However, all four drives have an icon on the desktop. The drive is visible and verifiable in ‘Disk Utility’. Double clicking the desktop icon opens the drive and I can copy a file from it. iTunes can see it. From a Macbook’s ‘Finder’, over WiFi, I can see and copy files to and from the drive. Finder Preferences shows nothing amiss. I’ve shut down and restarted the iMac several times with no change. The drive just does not show up in Finder on the host iMac.
Searching this forum has not helped. Any suggestions?
Max

Well, this is embarrassing. A suggestion from an older thread on Macrumors.com called "Hard Drive does not appear in Finder / Desktop", solved this problem. Simply drag the missing drive icon from the desktop to Finder! Perseverance and different search wording AND reading a lot of stuff pays off.
If other's problem is not solved with this fix, you might benefit from this 10.5-based thread. They also mention an Apple 10.5 fix. Both URL's below.
The op's problem was that the drive did not appear in Finder OR the desktop but was operational. There was a lot of in-depth information with this fix embedded.
Thanks for the interest and suggestions.

IOS 5 photo edits not really saved?

I cropped and applied auto-enhance to photos on my iPhone 4S running iOS 5then uploaded what I thought were edited photos to Facebook.
It turns out the edits were not really saved even though I saved the edits.
Original photos before the edits were uploaded Facebook.
Is this a bug? What would be the point of editing photos using the iOS 5 photo edit tools if the edits are not really saved for export?
Is there a fix?

This is interesting, because I had the opposite experience, but then I touched something. :-)
It seems that the Photos app behaves like iPhoto in that you can revert your edits. It can be done directly in the Photos app (clumsy) or in iPhoto once you've copied the photo to your Mac (easier).
I cropped a photo and uploaded it to FB. It looked cropped both on FB and in my linked iPhoto album. I thought that Photos had overwritten my photo because I didn't see an obvious way to revert it. After discovering how to revert the image, I did so in iPhoto. Now the image on FB and in the linked album show the image as uncropped.
I don't know if this helps your situation, but it explains a bit more of the weird Photos behavior that's been observed since iOS 5 dropped.

(Harmful) edit not visible in WkiHistory in "Feature Requests"

Maybe this should be a discussion.
I've just removed a porn link from the Forums table in "Feature Requests for..."
The disturbing part is that the edit I removed first appeared in Rev.233, but was not visible in the WikiHistory. I can construct a lot of scenarios here (but I won't!) and all of them are scary. I cannot construct a scenario with a "harmless"
rating.
I'm only a newbie, it's not for me to take this further. But I am sufficiently experienced to know that a revision of best practise access control should be undertaken. Yesterday would be a good time to initiate it.
Gordon.

Hi Richard -
Thanks for answering. It's the comment to the edit that's missing.
I believe (I have not tested) that blank comments are not listed as part of the edit, so all we get is the user's edit listing, but no clue of what was done in the edit.
I draw your attention to Wikipedia, where all parts of the edit are summarized in the History List. I don't believe the Technet Wiki History needs that amount of data, but OTOH that is the sort of thing computers excel at. But I do believe Technet
Wiki should record blank comments as well as filled comments. Maybe a blank comment could be filled with the first 10 or 20 words of the edit?
Gordon.
Okay, please add the feature request to the Wiki section:

You removed a dead link and a spam link!
And the history tab showed me all that!
We're actually thinking of migrating to the Wikimedia platform. Then that would give us your feature request. But it's best to capture it on our list so we don't lose sight of it.

"Home" folder not visible in Finder

My "Home" folder is not anymore visible in Finder under "Users". This affects some programs that cannot find my files unless I copy them to the "Shared" folder.
If I list folders in the Terminal application, I can see my Home folder under /Users.
Any hint?

Paste this command into Terminal and press 'return' on your keyboard.
