Photos present in I Photo but not appearing in folders on hard disk

OK so I have been warned about the idiosynchronies of I Photo but this? ...Help! I am able to successfully load from the camera into IPhoto and I am able to open the pics in Photoshop via various roundabout methods yet the new folders that appear in the file lists on the hard disk are empty despite the fact that the images are obviously somewhere in the computer. Anybody got any ideas? Thanks.

Hi Mephisto,
follow the next instructions to find out the path to photos in your iPhoto Library.
There is a way to find out where the original photo is that you have in your iPhoto Library. On this page there are iPhoto Applescripts. One of them is "show image file" I tried it and it does work for iPhoto 5. If you click on the image in your library window and then use the applescript it will open up a finder window with the image file, and you can see it's path of where it is.
http://www.apple.com/applescript/iphoto/
Download the scripts from the link
Once downloaded, put the folder "iPhoto Scripts" in ~/Library/Scripts
Now navigate to Applications/Applescript
In that Applescript folder is an icon that says "Install Script menu"
double click that icon to install the Script menu in your menu bar. You might have an item called ScriptMenu.menu instead. follow directions on next link
http://www.appleclub.com.hk/applescript/script_menu/
It will look like a little black scrolled paper.
Or you might have an item named AppleScript Utility.app in the folder. Double click to open it and make sure you have show script menu in menu bar checked.
Now open iPhoto, click on a photo to highlight it
Go to the menu bar and click and hold on the Applescript icon
scroll down to iPhoto Scripts, then scroll to "show image file"
Wait for the Finder top open a finder window showing you where the image is.
OR:
Or you can download Joe's iPhoto Applescripts
He gives instructions on the page for the installation of the scripts.
You can also just do a search in Finder for "iPhoto.db" This is a file that is in each iPhoto Library folder. If you have more than one iPhoto Library folder, more than one of these files will come up in the search. Note the path the the files that come up in the search to find the library/libraries.

  • HT5824 photos taken on my Iphone are not appearing in ICloud/IPhoto. ( to my knowledge, the settings are set for "share/upload"

    Photos taken on my Iphone do not appear in ICloud. I've checked the settings but am unable to determine
    what, if anything, I need to do inorder to syn the photos.
    Technically, I need to review the settings on my Iphone and ICloud that will enable a seamless transfer of photos.
    Additionally, I need to review the computer (microsoft)setting that enable a sync of photos with ICloud.

    Everything is fine, because there is no web application for photos at the moment. These are the options to view your Photo Stream:
    -On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, your photos will appear in the Photos app in the Photo Stream album.
    -On your Mac, they appear in the Photo Stream view in iPhoto or Aperture.
    -On a PC, your photos download to the Photo Stream download folder. By default, this folder is located at C:\Users\Apple\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream. You can change this location by visiting Photo Stream Options in the iCloud Control Panel for Windows.
    -On Apple TV, your photos will appear in the Photo Stream view under Internet in the main Apple TV menu after you sign in with your iCloud account.

    When taking photos on my iPhone they do not appear on my ipad although I have photo stream set up on both devices

    You can do it from the iPad or from a computer, whichever is easiest:
    Set up an Apple ID in iTunes - Apple Support
    And then set up the iCloud account for that Apple ID:

    Open the PSE Editor, not the Organizer.
    Enhance>Adjust Color>Remove Color Cast
    If that does not fix it, you can post a picture here on the forum so that we may provide additional suggestions. To do that, use the camera icon at the top of the reply box.

  • HT201317 My photos taken from my iPhone are not appearing in my iCloud account

    My photos taken from my iPhone are not appearing in my iCloud account home page. In fact there isn't even a photo icon on my iCloud homepage. In the settings section of my iphone, I have the Photo Stream turned to "on" within the iCloud setting so i'm not sure what the problem is. Any thoughts?

    Was your phone locked or unlocked when you used the camera?
    If your phone was locked and you used the camera the picture will be in the camera, once you have unlocked your phone then you will see the pic in the photos - camera roll.

  • I am using Office for MAC 2008, when I switch to other applications on my MAC and then go back to Office window it never brings me back to the window I was working on.  I have to click on the Window tab, but my window is ticked but not appearing. Why?

    I am using Office for MAC 2008, when I switch to other applications on my MAC, to copy and paste something for instance and then go back to Office window it never brings me back to the window/worksheet I was working on.  I have to click on the Window tab in excell for instance, but my window is ticked but not appearing. I then have to click on one of the other open files and then click back to the sheet I was working on for it to appear.  Can any one tell me why?

    Does that happen only on web pages that are running a Flash presentation? <br />
    When Flash "steals focus" from Firefox, you need to click outside the Flash presentation in the browser window, to regain focus in Firefox. A major problem arises when the Flash presentation is in the entire browser window, though. The Firefox developers are working on fixing that in Firefox, but it doesn't look like a fix is going to make it into Firefox 4.0, though.

  • Schedule lines present on R/3 but not available on BW.

    Schedule lines present on R/3 but not available on BW.
    It is observed that some schedule line records are uploaded to BW with recordmode ‘R’ causing deletion from ODS, though they are present on R/3 side (in EKET). We use 2lis_02_scl to upload schedule line data system BI 7.0. Anyone faced such problem?
    Points shall be assigned if found helpful.

    Kalyan ,
    refer to oss notes : 690106
    here he talks about what is the real motive for changing R mode to X mode .
    So but this notes does an undo operation for the same .
    We need to re do the same again in start routine if we want to maintain the deleted records . Also search the OSS by giving the data source name & record mode R , then you will also get the original problem in extractors with R mode .
    i forgot about the OSS numbers

  • I want to take the photos off my iPhone and put them directly onto an external hard disk. I want to bypass iPhoto altogether. When I link my iPhone to my computer, it only opens in iTunes, which only gives me the option to save my photos to iPhoto. Help!

    I want to take the photos off my iPhone and put them directly onto an external hard disk - I don't have any room left on my computer. I want to bypass iPhoto altogether. When I link my iPhone to my computer, it only opens in iTunes, which only gives me the option to save my photos to iPhoto. Help!  This is seriously frustrating!.
    Additionally, I'd like to be able to take the 2000+ photos out of iPhoto and put them on a disk in a folder. I have managed to export them to the hard disk but it's just plonked all 2000+ photos in a list - not ideal if I want to use it for anything else. And then I have to manually delete the photos from iPhoto. Is there not a quick and easy way of dealing with this? 
    Anyone got any bright ideas? Thanks for your help!

    I too would like to be able to do this. Just put them where i want the. IFTT a scripting app will put the images in dropbox for you , but its been pretty iffy.

  • The Fan option does not appear for folders in the dock.

    The fan option does not appear on folders on the Dock. Stack option is checked, but all I get is grid list and automatic....running 10.5.2
    any ideas?

    Not that I know of. When on the side no fan for folders and no 3D look, which I prefer. Background of the Dock very dark so the white dot showing an app is open is easy to see and it all looks very sophisticated.
    You might check with third party apps to see if anyone is changing that, but most people don't like the fan so I doubt if anyone is working to add it in.
