Photos missing from iPad after ios8 update

MY iPad is three years old, and all my travel photos are ( were) on it. I updated to iOS 8 today, now there are no photos visible prior to man 2015. Any suggestions, and no I don't own a Mac , and I never actives iCloud before.

Obvious: restore from the back up you made prior to upgrading.
If that's not possible:
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.

Photos missing from iPhoto after operating system update

I recently updated my Macbook pro operating system to OS X version 10.10.1 and iPhoto to version 9.6 (910.29). After the updates, most of my albums in iPhoto are empty and in the photos folder, all photos pre-dating 2010 are missing. How do I recover these photos?

Effects missing from clips after PP update

I have asked this question before, but nobody responded with any useful suggestions. Let me try again.
I spent an incredible amount of time keyframing Beauty Box effects on a timeline in Premiere Pro 8.0 during fall 2014. When I upgraded to 8.1, all the effects are simply gone from the timeline. To be clear, there are no "missing effects" messages; they are just gone.
Beauty Box is still installed and is an effect I can add to my clips with ease, but somehow, the update stripped all the effects off the timeline when it the project is updated to the new version.
Luckily, there is one machine at work that is still on 8.0 and recognizes my old project correctly. But - PP crashes literally every single time I try to adjust the Beauty Box effects that I spent many, many hours tweaking already.
Exporting an AAF also doesn't work: PP crashes every single time I try.
Short of adding the effect all over again to every clip and starting from scratch, is this a known issue to Adobe and is there a solution? I hesitate to upgrade Beauty Box, as updating any software in the middle of a project is a bad idea (see above).
And here are bonus issues: I use a Saffire Pro 14 for audio on my system. Everything was fine until the other day, when it stopped playing AIFs. If I try to import one and place it in the source monitor, everything locks up and PP crashes. There have been no hardware or software updates in these areas for literally months (aside form "upgrading" to the latest PP version about a month or so ago). The files play normally outside of PP. The solution to this, I found after a good bit of experimenting, is to switch to the Adobe audio driver. But why?
Also, I have a two monitor system. The right monitor is my program view. I usually set it nearly full screen (but not quite). Suddenly, it started taking up the entire screen with no borders (and no accessible controls) yesterday. I can't find a command to restore it to normal. (~ doesn't do it).
Another frustrating issue: warning boxes that normally appear on top of everything onscreen have begun appearing behind other PP windows, giving me the annoying system error noise whenever I try to touch anything. the only way I have found to reveal them is to switch to another program then toggle back to PP.
All of this has made it virtually impossible for me to get any work done on this project. Gotta say I'm not loving PP right now.er literally a month,

UPDATE - after literally a month, all my missing effects re-appeared on my timeline tonight. Why? Who knows? But I'm glad they're back.

I have almost the same problem. As a workaround, I can check "sync all music" rather than "sync checked music" in iTunes. (By the way, it worked for a couple weeks and now it doesn't). I'm fortunate that all my music fits on my touch (though just barely). The only album that still exists on my ipod (officially anyways) is one that I bought from iTunes after upgrading.
Also, I listen to a lot of podcasts, and I haven't figured out how to make that work (they disappeared too).
Anybody know how to get back to a position where I can decide what I want for music and don't have to put everything on my touch?

Had to restore iPad2 from itunes after IOS8 update with no option to restore from icloud backup.

since i lost everything on my ipad due to the IOS8 update, i thought i'd try to do a manual restore from my icloud backup, but the only backup listed is one from the day i did the update/restore. i'm pretty sure it's not going to help me recover everything that i lost since it's only 1.8gb. i know my ipad backed up to the cloud every couple of weeks when i charged it, so shouldn't there be other backup dates available? also, when i go to settings>icloud>manage storage>ipad, the backup options list every app i had on my ipad before the update/restore, but those apps are no longer on my ipad, so i'm not sure why they're listed in the backup options. apparently i can't even contact apple to help with this issue without paying $20, and i live 2 hours away from the closest apple store. any thoughts?

My philosophy is if you lost everything already anyway, you have nothing to lose by restoring the iCloud backup at this point. Besides, your apps will download from iCloud, if you were truly backing up with iCloud and not using iTunes. Apps are not part of the backup, app data is.
I would give it a try. If it doesn't work out, you are no worse off than you are now. But - your apps should still all download from the cloud even if the data is gone.

Side bar missing from iTunes after the update o oct '14

Please let me kow if there is side bar option in Itunes after the update.

It's not missing. It's no longer used as you remember it. But there is no loss of functionality if you take some time to work with iTunes.

I had hundreds of photos on the iPhone that were synced with iCloud.
THis morning I was able to see those images on my iPad and so was happy they were not lost. tonight I went into photos in my iPad and the photos are no longer there.
Where did the photos go and how do I get them back?
All my contacts and notes still seem to be synced.
Please help.

Yes iCloud is being used. It syncs my photos mail notes etc with my iPhone and iPad.
LIke me I said yesterday morning I could see photos taken on my iPhone on my ipad. Later that night when the phone went missing the photos have disappeared.
i Checked and in the settings I have auto backup turned on.

Sound not working on Ipad after ios8 update

I updated to iOS 8.0.2 and the next day, while watching a TV show on my ipad, the sound completely stopped. I did a hard reset, thinking this would solve it, but it didn't work. Sound is not on mute. I tested out all apps that play sound, nothing was playing through the speakers; however, I can hear sound if I use headphones. I did the ipad reset suggestion I saw in a few articles, but still that hasn't work. Any other workarounds or am I going to have to go into the apple store?

Hello jggarcia,
It sounds like you have done all the troubleshooting from the article below. I know it is for iPhone, but the troubleshooting is still the same. After everything that you have done, check with the article to make sure you did not miss anything and if it is still giving you issue, then I would recommend making an appointment with your local Apple Store’s Genius Bar.
iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker

Recent photos missing from iPhoto after dragging from Time Machine backup

Hi,
So I recently got back from a trip, and I imported all 400 photos from three cameras - my Canon, and two Olympus'.
When they were done importing, I also backed up my HD with Time Machine. Everything was fine, I could browse them all - edited a few, etc.
Then I wiped my HD and made a fresh install of OS X, because it was being rather sluggish. I dragged the backed up iPhoto Library (the most latest one from my external HD) to it's new place - opened it up, and the event key image of my trip is blank.
When I open the event, all the photos from the two Olympus' are missing - only remain the pictures from my Canon, and blank placeholders for the Olympus pictures - with titles, sizes and everything.
I went into the package, to see where they could be hiding - and have had no luck finding them (I even did a Finder search for the missing picture names).
What has happened?! Isn't iPhoto meant to store all files in one place when backed up via TM?
What should I do?

Maybe be a bit more succinct and reference this topic. Here's an alternated backup strategy that might work.
1 - copy the iPhoto Library to your TM hard drive via the Finder.
2 - use a 3rd party backup application like Synk Standard to make incremental backups as needed: after any use of the library for any reason. Incremental backups only copy new or changed files.
3 - once you're confident that the backup is a good one you can go into Time Machine and remove all of the iPhoto Library backups using the Action button in the top bar of the Finder window.
Then you can do your own backups when needed (and don't slack on it!). You can also check the backup by opening it occasionally to make sure all is well.

Photos missing from project after initial import

I'm having an issue where after initial importing pictures into Aperture, I can no longer find them within the project. Initially I can see them fine after the import, but when I relaunch Aperture, they are gone. The project itself exists and I when I move the cursor over the project icon, I can see the images (and they also appear in project info), but when I click on the project, it has no photos inside it. I have checked and it appears all filters are turned off from the browser view.
Also, when I try to re-import the photos, Aperture identifies them as duplicates.
I did have an issue a month ago where Aperture crashed a few times while trying to import. I repaired permissions and the database, but am still getting a warning to repair the database each time I open Aperture. I have not yet run rebuild, as I am concerned about this messing up the library (I am current on my backups).
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Independent of Tony's suggested fix, it looks like you are having a more general problem. We need to know more to see, what might be causing this. What version of Aperture are you using? What is your MacOS X version?
It would be good to know, if your frequent "repair" problem only occurs for your current Aperture library. Create a new, empty Aperture library and import a few test images.
Do you have the same problem with a new library?
If not, where is your Aperture library stored? In the default location in "Pictures" or on an external drive? Are you sharing your library with other user accounts? How much free disk space do you have?

Why are key functions, such as the "back" button, missing from Firefox after involuntary update?

I noticed that there is a new version of Firefox on my computer, different from the last time I had my computer on. There are few issues that I have noticed thus far. 1) The back" and "forward" buttons are disabled. 2) Whenever I open a website the address bar is missing the URL. 3) Firefox doesn't save my tabs and I lost all of my tabs from the previous session.
Please help me. This makes browsing a frustrating task.

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

If you keep having problems with your current Firefox Profile Folder then try to create new profile or reset Firefox.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Photos missing from iPhoto after Maverick upgrade

Down loaded the updated Maverick on July 6, 2014, today July 8th all of the photos have disappeared. Some of these photos are not replaceable. help!!!

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 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.

Photos missing from iCloud after repair

I picked up my iPhone 5 from being repaired, and now my photos are all gone--even though my wallpaper and lockscreen still have the photos from before, my camera roll is zero. The useless AppleCare chat people told me that my photos were all gone, but if I backed them up, is there any way to get them back?

Well, the link that I provided will get you specifically to the iCloud team.
It doesn't sound like you have been importing your photos to a computer or saving them on a cloud service of any sort. You really want to start doing this. iCloud or iTunes backups of your device are just backups, they are not a permanent collection of all of your photos. Every time you do a backup, it overlays the oldest backup, so if you have deleted photos from your device between backups, they will, eventually be unrecoverable because they simply won't be there. Don't know if you have a Mac or a PC, but this support article tells you how to import your photos to both. You should import them on a regular basis. If you have a Mac and iPhoto, you can actually set up your iCloud Photo Stream to automatically import into your iPhoto library, so if you forget to import, your Photo Stream photos will be saved to your Photo Library. Here's how to do the import from your Camera Roll into a Mac or PC Photo Library:

How to get photos back after ios8 update?, How to get photos back after ios8 update?

HHi everyone, I just finished updating to ios8 and all my photos have gone! Can someone please help me get them back or tell me how to do it! Thanks

Agreed, I have all my photos on my iMac but only about half of them transferred to iPad on ios8 update, everything else OK just a photo problem. Deleted them all using settings on iMac and took them back in, but same problem occured.

It's very possible that you did just as you suspect. One of the later Note file over wrote the one stored on your iPad when you synced.
When one does a sync of their iPad a backup of the iPad is created first. If that backup was still available you might be able to find the Note file there. But more than likely, if you are letting the iPad and iPhones sync on their own over Wi-Fi you have over written that back up as well.
