Photos in iPhoto have lost "Places".  How do I recover them?

I spent many hours add "Places" to our Alaska Vaction Photos.  When I went to show them to family and friends, the "Places" information had disappered.  What method can I use to recover them?

What system and iPhoto versions are you current running?
Did you upgrade to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5.1?  Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • I imported about 300 RAW images yesterday and worked with them for about an hour. iPhoto locked up on me and I rebooted. After I did the event icon is now gray and it says there are no photos. I know the photos are there. Any idea how I can recover them?

    a best practice to is to never have any computer program (including iPhoto) delete the photos from the card but to import the photos and keep them and then after at least one successful backup cycle has completed and then reformat the card --  I use three very large (32 GB) cards in rotation so I do not reformat for typically a year or more giving me one more long term backup of my photos
    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

    Some of my mailboxes have disappeared. How do I recover them?

    If they were on your phone when you last backed it up to iCloud, with some effort you may be able to restore them by following Winston Churchill's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22600445#22600445.

    Your problem is that she used your icloud ID to connect to icloud and thus had all your data synced to her device.  Contacts are not saved in a backup to icloud, since they are stored independently in the Contacts section of icloud.  If someone deletes them, they are gone.  If you had them on the PC would they be available in some backup you frequently make of the PC?

    There is a slight chance that those images may be cached in icloud backup, if they were in camera roll or library OP would not be here would he, T.

    Your question topic says you have all your photos backed up in iTunes. If so they are on your computer. When you get your new phone you can sync those photos from your computer to your phone.

  • I changed my outgoing pop settings and my stored emails have disappeared, how do I recover them, please?

    I am using the Mail app on my iMac in OS Yosemite 10.10.2. My talk talk.net account would not let me send emails, so I changed the  port setting from 110 to 25 and when I went back into my email box all but today's emails have disappeared. How do I recover them, please?

    Now I cannot access these photos.
    You need to update to iPhoto 9.6.1. Only that is fully compatible with MacOS X 10.10.3.
    You can no longer buy iPhoto from the App Store anywhere, and also not update it from the "Updates" tab of the App Store. You can however reinstall it, if it is showing among your Purchases at the App Store and associated with your AppleID.
    Sign into the App Store and look at the Purchases tab.  If you do not see iPhoto there, try to unhide your Purchases as described on this page:   Hide and unhide purchases in the Mac App Store - Apple Support
    If iPhoto shows on your Purchases tab, reinstall as described in this User Tip:
    Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
    The main idea is to move the incompatible iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the App Store by pressing ⌘R, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.
    So move iPhoto to the Trash (don't empty the Trash), relaunch the App Store. The button to the right if iPhoto should change to Install on the "Purchases" tab.
    Alternately, you could migrate your iPhoto library to the new Photos.app.
    When you launch Photos, it will try to migrate your iphoto Library, if it can find the library.  Where is your iPhoto Library stored? If it is in your Pictures folder, simply drag the iPhoto Library to the Phots icon in your Dock to migrate it to Photos.
    Photos will make a migrated copy, so you still can use your iPhoto Library with iPhoto.

    If for some reason you failed to make sure that everything was on your comuter before updating , then you will have to redownload:

    I have just upgraded to os x lion 10.7.4 and I seem to have lost approx 4000 photos from iPhoto.  Is there a way to recover these photos?

    The Lion upgrade does not touch iPhoto. However, you may need to purchase an iPhoto upgrade.
    Look in your /Home/Pictures/ folder for the iPhoto Library file.

    When I upgraded my iPhoto thumbnails, my photos disappeared.  How do I recover them?

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 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. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain 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.

    By mistake I deleted all my photos from my Ipad Retina Display, I don't have backup. Please, how can I recover them?

    If your photos are in iPhoto or on your computer, then they are not lost. If you delete them from the iPad you have a major problem. You can check this out: iPad Data Recovery - Undelete & Rescue Lost Files from iPad.

  • Help!!! the app Iphoto is closed marking a erros. I go back and open the application and are not photos. How can I recover them? Are not in the image folder.

    I was editing my photos and adding them to a album and suddenly the app is closed marking a erros. I go back and open the application and are not photos. How can I recover them? Are not in the image folder.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (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.  
    Regards

  • Lost my iPhoto Albums (MY LIFE) How do I get them back?

    Downloaded the latest OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks and lost my iPhoto Albums (MY LIFE) How do I get them back?

    Can you explain in a little more detail.
    Two things can and have happened that might help.
    1) iPhoto needs to be updated. Go to the App Store, Updates, and update iPhoto.
    2) You created a new account and logged into that. Log out, then see if your old account is there.

    I recently turned off iCloud photo sharing and lost all the photos off my iPhone 4S. How can I get them back onto my phone?

    IF you have successfully imported your pictures to your Mac http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083  then it's safe to delete it from your phone.
    If you want the pics back on your phone, just sync them back using itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
