Photo subpages disappearing from album page in iWeb 2009

One of the pages of my website is an album page. Theoretically, an album page should allow multiple photo subpages. Initially my album had two photo subpages. Now, however, I want to add additional subpages.
The problem I'm encountering is that these new subpages keep disappearing. Every time I quit and reopen iWeb, the original two subpages and any subpages created in the last session are present, but any subpages created in earlier sessions have disappeared. The disappeared subpages show up in the column of created pages on the left-hand side of iWeb, but they do not appear in the album page, and all photo content for the subpages has disappeared (although formatting and text boxes are unchanged).
I've tried multiple strategies to get around the disappearing page problem: duplicating existing album subpages, adding a new page within the album, adding a new page outside the album and then dragging it into the album, deleting the iWeb plist file and restarting the computer the page.
Any ideas how to fix this?

Photos disappear from my Pages layout

I'm nearing completion of a layout for a 50-page booklet but have discovered that when I adjust photos (or copy?) in an early chapter, several photos often disappear from a later chapter. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Jerry,
You are using a Pages Word Processing document.
Your images are floating objects.
Floating objects position is determined with respect to the top left corner of the document. These objects do not move with the text.
Floating objects will be visible only if there is a page at that location.
Pages Word Processing documents create new pages only if there is text to be placed on that page.
Your editing of text has resulted in less text in the document, OR
You have removed one or more graphic objects early in the document, allowing text to move up to fill the space formerly occupied by those objects.
In either case, the text now occupies a smaller number of pages, the pages no longer occupied by text disappear, and the graphics objects that were displayed on those pages now have no page(s) on which to be displayed.
Insert a few page breaks at the end of the document, and the graphics objects will reappear.
Regards,
Barry

Pages disappeared from the "pages window"

pages suddenly disappeared from the pages window.
whatever file i open or create and no matter how many pages i add, they do not appear in the "pages window". it is completely blank as if no file is opened. therefor i cannot edit, move or manage the pages within my files.
i have tried deleting preference files but that does not work. very frustrating.
any help appreciated
i am using CS3 on an intel iMac with OS X 10.4
thank you

Not being a Mac user, I don't know if both preference files you need to delete are in that same library folder. You have to remove InDesign SavedData and InDesign Defaults. You might want to have a look at this article: Adobe InDesign CS4 * Setting preferences
Replacing prefs is covered if you scroll down.

All of my photos have disappeared from PSE Organizer 13 (after I upgraded it).

All of my photos have disappeared from PSE Organizer 13 (after I upgraded it). The files are all on the HD. When I try and reimport them, Organizer says they are already in there and will not allow me to proceed. When I highlight a keyword, Get the message "NO MEDIA TO BE DISPLAYED". Perhaps I am dense, but I find the Search function of the Forum to be near useless, unless I just happen to type the Exact name of a topic.
I now have no access to perhaps 35,000 files from 12 years of using PSE!
GFrey

Which operating system are you running on? Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
Which version did you upgrade from? updated from PSE 13 to PSE 13.1
In the organizer, which view are you using - in the View menu is Details checked or unchecked - does it make any difference? was unchecked now checked. Now can see the other files, but the Keyword tags that I had attached in the past does not bring up the selected frames.
In the View menu, select Media types - are all checked? At this point I have only Ohotos and videos checked
In View menu, select Hidden Files - is Show All Files checked? yes
I'm assuming that you are in Media view, what happens if you select People Places or Events? get groupings of files with those keywords.
Brian
Thanks Brian, at least some of my problems are gone, just can't get the keyword sorting to work correctly

All my files just disappeared from my pages and numbers apps on my mini iPad. Under Usage, both still show 350 MBs used for each. Ideas?

Hello r253,
The following troubleshooting steps can help get your documents to reappear on your devices.
Documents I've updated on my Mac or uploaded from iCloud.com don't appear on my iOS device
If you're using an iWork for iOS app (Pages, Numbers, or Keynote), check the iCloud system requirements and make sure that you're using the latest version of iWork. For third party apps, check the documentation that came with the app, or check with the app developer to make sure the app supports iCloud. App Store application descriptions often indicate whether the app supports iCloud.
Go to Apple () menu > System Preferences on your Mac. Click iCloud and confirm that you're signed in to iCloud and the Documents & Data checkbox is selected.
After opening your iOS app, wait a few minutes for the documents to appear. Your iOS device may not have connected to iCloud since changes were made to the document at iCloud.com or on your other devices.
Try creating a new document on your iOS device, then check again for the documents from iCloud to appear.
Go to Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data and confirm that Use Cellular Data is turned on.
Confirm that you're connected to the Internet by checking for an Edge, 3G, 4G, LTE, or Wi-Fi icon in your device's status bar. Test your connection by opening apple.com in Safari.
Try resetting iCloud Documents & Data service.

Why are most photos disappearing from albums in iWeb?

I'm having a problem with the photo albums on iWeb.
I drag a photo album from my iPhoto window in iWeb to the photo album web page and it becomes an album with slideshow capabilities. If I publish the site, everything appears fine. I save iWeb and exit.
Now if I open iWeb again, all three of the photo album pages still exist, but on each page, only four of the original photos remain. The albums are supposed to have 29 photos, 35 photos, and 46 photos total. Now they each show four.
I thought it was a fluke, so I added them all again including captions. Then I saved, closed and reopened iWeb. The photos in the web albums were gone again.
I'm using iLife '09 with the iPhoto that exists on my laptop, but all the source photos are located on a Mac Mini in my local network. Any ideas on why this is happening and how I can fix it?
Note that the complete album as uploaded to the actual website still exists and works great. But if I publish the changes, the album will disappear.
Thanks.

Look under "More like this" on the right of this page, specifically "Re: no photo selected"; the discussion there may be of help.

Photos disappear from Album and Photo webpages in iWeb after publishing.

I just installed iWeb 9. I made some great new photos albums and blogs and published. After 4 unsuccessful attempts and publishing errors, I finally got the new web pages published. When I go back into iWeb, the photos on the album page are gone. All the photos from the photos page are also gone! The Albums page, which had 10+ albums now has 1 space that says, "Drag album here."
The website shows the photos as I would expect. I thought this was a fluke, and started from scratch, recreated the pages, made sure my iWeb patches were up to date... Same thing... No photos in iWeb.
The Blog doesn't seem to have this problem. Only the Albums and Photos webpages.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
1 - close iWeb.
2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
3 - go to your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
4 - reboot.
5 - launch iWeb and try again.

Album vanished from album page

After doing some editing on my site I published it and found that when I looked at it to check it one of the albums on my Album Page had disappeared. It is still in iWeb however.
Any help, please.
Also, I had created links ( Back to Album Page ) on my photo pages because some of the folks I send it to may not realize what the " Back to Index Page " link is for. The links I created did not appear after publishing.
Any help,please.

Hold everything guys, and this is for Cedric, Roddy and Cyclosaurus and before I go any further I want you all to know how much I appreciate your assistance, and your patience with me.
The plot thickens...I previously started another thread with this question :
" I started with a trial,and before it ended I paid for a year but I keep getting reminders that in a few days my trial will end. How can I contact a living person to straighten this out ? "
I found out, during my trying to straighten this out, that I wound up with 2 accounts, lorrdon, which was marked as a soon - to - expire trial, and lorrdon1 which was marked as a paid account with almost a full year to go.
I had contact with billing support at .mac trying to sort it out and was told that I was now lorrdon and that I could not transfer data from one account to the other.
I sent them a strongly worded e-mail telling them I had to have this corrected and although I have not actually had a reply from billing support I just realized, a few moments ago, when I was trying to see the result of applying Cedric's last fix suggestion , which was :
" In the page browser bar of iweb (left panel) you have the Our Albums page and at its left there is a triangle. Click on it and the photopages of the album contained in the Our Albums page show up. Now you select the 'Round the house page and drag it somewhere else in the iWeb page browser. It will not appear in the Our Albums among the albums anymore. Publish the Our Albums page. Now drag it back on the Our Albums page and it will reappear in it. Republish."
that I could access the webite either as lorrdon or lorrdon1 but that as lorrdon which now shows as the paid account and for which the Albums page was complete, and as lorrdon 1 where there was still an Album missing.
I'm wondering if billing support made the change I wanted and simply hasn't told me that directly.
I can login under either name, but if I login as lorrdon1 and then click on " Account details " the next window shows as lorrdon, not lorrdon1.
What do you think ?

More and more photos progressively disappearing from the Book

Hi,
Please help me! I've invested a ton of time into this book and am hoping that someone can have a fix instead of me doing the book over. I've bought Apeture for the next time I do one, but please, please tell me there is something that can be done to fix this!
I uploaded about 700 photos to my library. Some of the photos came from the same camera and thus had the same names. I assumed this would be okay as I figured that iPhoto would append something to the name/not use the file name as the key/or however this thing works. I've also posted this as a bug and have tried all the things the genius bar people told me to do/had them do some of the things for me, though this didn't help.
Basically, after importing the photos, I put them in an album, sorted them, and deleted some of them, then I made a Book with about 170 photos in it, about 60 pages long, with several intro pages in there. During this process, I weeded out more photos from the book - I started out with more pictures then 170 and I got down to 170 by looking to see which look nicer in the layout and deleting the ones that were not as nice, just from the book, not from the album. I've also emptied my trash since then, both in iPhoto and in the trash on the macbookpro, to make room for the back up library later, to try to fix the problem as below.
Symptoms:
1. Thumbnail images in Book above page display when in page mode not updating the text on intro pages for days on end, despite a restart of the app, computer, rebuilding library, etc.
2. Pictures are progressively disappearing from my Book
Pages not updating - Thumbnail shows a page filled with pictures when in page mode, but when you are looking at the page itself, below the thumbnails, the picture is missing
3. The pictures in the thumbnails and the pictures on the pages when in page mode went missing - in both places
4. When you try to drag a picture that has disappeared into the book from the album, it "bounces back" - thinks that it's already in there. When you make a duplicate, you can drag the duplicate in (and this has been my pathetic workaround, which I am hoping not to do if you have something better!) And in any case, this is a bug and you should be able to replicate it by uploading pics with the same name, then moving some into the trash with the same name but a different photo then those in the book.
Anyway, I think that what's happening is that the Book is "confused" and thinks that the pictures deleted have been moved to the trash, when they really have not, they just have the same name. Somehow, the book is possibly ignoring the _copy that it's supposed to have in the name. Good grief! Help!

Ben:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Thumbnail shows a page filled with pictures when in page mode, but when you are looking at the page itself, below the thumbnails, the picture is missing
What do you see if you try to view one of those "missing" image in the main library in the edit mode? Do you see a blank window with an exclamation mark in the middle?
If that's the case, that means that iPhoto has lost the link to the original file. Since you've rebuild the library and that didn't bring them back, I'm afraid your only option is to start over with a new library and import the original files from the old one as follows:
Creating a new library while preserving the rolls from the original.
Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
Drag the Originals folder from the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
This will create a new library with the same rolls as the original library. However dates on the rolls may be different but can be edited as you would the roll title.
Once this is completed you can delete the Originals folder from the desktop and the iPhoto Llibrary folder. If desired, you can keep the older library folder to try other fixes on it.
In the future I recommend you make a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto file after each import and after doing a lot of editing and organizing in the library. Then if you experience a similar crash all you need to do is replace the damaged database file with the backup copy and you'll be back to the same place in the library as when you make the backup. See the tip at the end of my signature.
Hint: I create a separate library for each book that I create using iPhoto Library Manager. Then, like you, I put all of the photos I think I want into an album in my primary library and copy it to the book library with iPLM. I can add more at a later date the same way if necessary.
When the book is complete, ordered and delivered I burn that book library folder intact to a CD in the Finder. This gives me an archived copy of the library that I can use at a later date to order another exact copy of the book regardless of what I do to my primary library.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

My photos have disappeared from iPhoto 11

My hard drive was replaced at the beginning of this year by apple because of the possibility of premature failure. Just before Christmas 2013, i discovered my iPhoto was blank. sometime in January, the photos all reappeared but as of yesterday, they have once again disappeared from iPhoto. The pictures are still on the harddrive as they can be seen using Finder but are no longer grouped by albums. Also, they are locked in Finder. The iMac is running OSX 10.7.5 and the iPhoto version is 9.4.3.
I would like my photos back in iPhoto and would like them to be reliably there when i go to view them. Any suggestions? Apple Support advised me they had never heard of this happening.

If so, try your Admin and other Account(s).

Adding additional albums on already-create album page in iWeb??

Question-
i am adding photos to my page and would like to be able to double click on a photo and have it expand to full size viewing in another page or the same page.
How do i acheive this?

Pictures disappeared from album

I had a lot of old pictures in albums on iPhoto. I even had them posted on a public website. It seems these pictures have totally disappeared from my album, and the website has also disappeared. These were old pictures, of my father's family, and were being used for genealogical purposes. One picture went back as far as 1890. I tried to recreate the wheel. I have these pictures in a folder on my desktop, but when I try to import them into iPhoto, I get the following message: "The following file could not be imported (Import failed): /Users/rshea1/Desktop/'ShiplettPics2/IraMenzo Later Years.jpg". These pictures will not import into iPhoto, even though I had them there once before. What happened? I really want to get these pictures back onto the website, but don't know how to do it. If this were the first time I tried to do it, I would just give up, but since they were there once, I don't know why they disappeared. Can anybody please help me with this?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Sounds like you may have a damaged database file.
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.

Photos just disappeared from library - iphoto2

I only noticed that my collection of photos had disappeared when I uploaded a new batch from camera. I simply cannot find them anywhere on my computer.
Recent changes to my habits:
1. I was recently in Paris using my hotel's WIFI and I uploaded a batch of photos from camera
2. I recently did a series of tasks on cocktail - doesn't seem likely there's a connection with the disappearance though.
I guess they're gone forever?
But why after 5 years would they desert me?

TD:
Yes I've looked in 'Pictures', used spotlight with some keywords and I've done a random check of other folders in HD.
I've got an Olympus Master app. and HP Photosmart Studio which have photo editing facilities but all my checks there draw blanks too.

Some of my photos have disappeared from my iPad and iphone

I Have lost a large number of photos from my collections/albums. Random dates. How can I retrieve these. Everything is backed up to the cloud.

Howdy Jan,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like some photos are missing from your iPhone and you want to know how to go about recovering them from an iCloud backup. Take a look at the articles linked below, the first will walk you through the restore process and the second provides information that’ll assist you in recovering photos after restoring from an iCloud backup.
iCloud: Restore or set up your iOS device from iCloud
Get help finding missing information in iCloud after restoring an iOS device - Apple Support
Your photos
In iOS 8 with iCloud Photo Library beta turned on, your photos and videos are stored in iCloud. They aren’t included in your iCloud backup. When you restore from iCloud Photo Library, your device downloads thumbnails of your photos and videos, and any original photos stored on your device.
If you’re using iOS 8 and haven’t turned on iCloud Photo Library, or if you’re using iOS 7, iCloud backup includes photos and videos in your Photo Library or Camera Roll. They’ll download to your iOS device when you restore.
Photos in My Photo Stream are already stored in iCloud, so they aren’t part of your backup. iCloud stores the photos that you uploaded to My Photo Stream for 30 days. To keep these photos on your device and make them part of your backups, save these photos to your Photo Library, Camera Roll, or another album.
To view a My Photo Stream album, make sure My Photo Stream is turned on in Settings (If you use iCloud Photo Library, the My Photo Stream folder is removed).
To recover photos that originally synced to your device from your computer, sync your device using iTunes on a computer.
To restore Photo Library (or Camera Roll) photos to an iPhone or iPod touch, the iCloud backup must be from an iPhone or iPod touch. To restore Photo Library (or Camera Roll) photos to an iPad, the iCloud backup must be from an iPad.
Ciao,
-Jason

Some of my photos have disappeared from iphoto

Hi
I'm running iphoto 09 (version 8.1.2 424) on my Mac Book (Mac OS X 10.5.6).
I've just noticed that several photos are missing from various events. In some cases there is only one photo left. This appears to have happened randomly - some of the events are unaffected, others have just a few missing, others most.
Are there any suggestions as to what might have happened and how I could retrieve the photos? There are no thumbnails or anything. They just appear to have vanished!
Many thanks.

OK so I've been digging around in this forum and seen a post which says that dragging photos from iphoto to the Trash Can in the Finder sidebar rather than iphoto's trash can, can corrupt the iphoto Library.
I've always deleted photos from iphoto by doing this - I didn't realise this was something I shouldn't be doing. Could this be the cause? And if so can I do anything to remedy it?
I regular back up everything to an external hard drive but I have never had cause to restore anything from it. Would I be able to do this without losing what I already have, and is there an optimum way to restore photos I don't currently have on the imac which might still be backed up on the external hard drive?
Thank you.
