Pics not showing up in "Events" AND "pictures" but "Finder" sees them ok

I am missing some events (with photos) from iPhoto. These pics are also missing from the pictures tab. Finder can locate them on the HD and seemingly has them located in the iPhoto folder. I have tried to import them from Finder and a warning pops up and says "Photos are already in the iPhoto library". Everyone I have asked seems to think it is impossible for the photos to not be shown in the pictures tab.
Any help is appreciated.

I am a newbie to apple . . . .can u tell?

I am having exactly the same problem as is described above -- I will import a bunch of pictures from a camera to iphoto '09 (8.1.2 (424)), I'll split them into multiple events, and then sometimes one of the events won't show up on the main events listing. If I search for the event by its name in iphoto, I can find it. And all of its pictures are in the photos view. But the event doesn't show up in the default listing.
I tried Option 1, but it didn't work -- I know of at least 2 events that still didn't show up.
I then tried Option 2, and it took *over 2 days* to re-process everything (I have 738 events with 28,056 photos and camera movies). This is on an imac 2.8 ghz core 2 duo; not the fastest, but not the slowest, either.
Option 2 seems to have worked -- I now see the 2 events that were missing before.
But just be aware that it may take a long, long time to rebuild and copy everything.

  • When I download photos from a flash drive,everything is fine and they show in Events and Pictures, but when I click on the individual pic I get an error message saying that it cannot locate the JPG. Any thoughts?

    It sounds like your iPhoto Advanced preferences are set to not copy photos during import, i.e. a Referenced library:
    Check your Advanced preferences to see if that's the case. If it is the best solution would be to select the checkbox to copy the photos and reimport the photos from the flash drive.  Then check the new import. It it was OK you can delete the previous event with the "missing" photos.

  • I see events and pictures, but when I try to open a picture, iPhoto quits

    Hello, I need help. Everything seems to work fine with iPhoto9, I see events and pictures. When I click on one picture to edit it, iPhoto quits. Whatever the photo, iPhoto keeps in quitting. Thank you in advance.

    Try this:  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists.  If the problem is not repeated in the new, test library the problem lies in your current library. 
    If that is the case make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Google and all of its related services are not showing as a secure and pictures are being blocked.

    I was forced to add manual exception to even use Google search AND Google email but pictures are still being blocked in Google search. The first 12 pictures will show but the rest only reflect a broken square in the top left corner of where the image preview should be. When I click on the blanks- it shows the picture but I can't work efficiently that way. How do I remove the block on images until the issue can be corrected in another update?
    Google Chrome was doing the same thing (blocking images from trusted MAJOR sites like Facebook and Twitter but considering its own material secure). Chrome did not allow a user to control if the images could show and I switched to Firefox as a result. Please fix this. Thanks!

    All I had to do was update my clock time and it fixed the issue. My clock was showing December 6, 2014 as the date. Sorry. You can consider this resolved, Thank you!

  • IPhoto events and pictures missing from iPhoto after restoring new hard drive and upgrade to iLife11

    My iPhoto events and pictures are ALL missing from my iPhoto Library after I tried restoring my programs on a new hard drive AND upgrading to iLife11!  Over the last few months, I upgraded my 2008 Macbook Pro's hard drive from a 250 GB to a 500 GB hard drive and since then have been manually installing and restoring programs and software.  I decided to do things manually because I had problems with doing Time Machine backups/restores in the past, so before I upgraded the drive, I manually saved everything to a Western Digital MyStudio 1 TB hard drive that I had just for the purposes of a second back up.  Anyway, I tried importing the pictures onto the new library, but couldn't find the hard copies at first, so that didn't work.  I then tried deleting the iPhoto Library that came with new operating system, then copying my old backup onto the new hard drive...that didn't work either.  However, when I right clicked on the iPhoto Library icon on my external hard drive (the original) and clicked on "show package contents," the folder not only contained the originals, but they were still organized by year and event just as I had them originally! 
    So, then I thought "why don't I try just importing the pictures directly into the new iPhoto Library!"
    I tested it out, and sure enough, it worked!  I then tried importing an entire folder (which, was actually the name of the event), and again it worked!  So, I literally clicked and dragged my entire 2007-2009 library of pictures (which was about 35 GB) back into my iPhoto Library!  AND, this only took about 30 minutes to download, enough time for me to write this post and the following instructions to Recap: 
              1. Open your new iPhoto Library
              2. Go to wherever your ORIGINAL iPhoto Library is saved/backed up, then Right-click (or Control click) on the iPhoto icon 
              3. Click on "Show Package Contents"
              4. Go to the folder called "Originals" or "Master"
              5. Click and drag everything INSIDE the folder (not the folder itself) to your new iPhoto Library
              6. DO NOT try Importing from inside iPhoto!  For some reaseon, iPhoto can't see these images, but I promise, they're there! 
    I assume this could work on other iLife programs, but luckily I have MobileMe and my iCalendar updated itself, though I did have to do some tweeking...
    Hope this helps other people out, GOOD LUCK! 

    I'm re-posting the answer to this problem so I can show it has been answered: 
    Open your new iPhoto Library 
    Go to wherever your ORIGINAL iPhoto Library is saved/backed up, then Right-click (or Control click) on the iPhoto icon
    Click on "Show Package Contents"
    Go to the folder called "Originals" or "Master"
    Click and drag everything INSIDE the folder (not the folder itself) to your new iPhoto Library
    DO NOT try Importing from inside iPhoto!  For some reason, iPhoto can't see these images, but I promise, they're there!
              GOOD LUCK!!!

  • Calendar on iPad (OS7.0.4) does not show home calendar events

    I can create an event on my ipad, but it does not show up on the calendar.  It does show up in icloud and iphone, but not on the ipad.  Likewise I can create events on my iphone and icloud.  Those events show up on the iphone and icloud, but not the ipad.  I checked teh settings and the Home calendar is shown as default.

  • AirDrop showing the wrong name and picture with iOS 7

    AirDrop is showing the wrong name and picture on my wife's phone....It is showing my name and picture.  She has an iPhone 5 and I just updated her to iOS7 about an hour ago, same time as I did mine. Is it because we are connected with the same Apple ID and if so, how do I fix it?  She is annoyed by it and not seeing where I can change it in the settings is beginning to annoy me.  Help!

    I don't think that's the issue.  I'm having the same problem.  My wife, my son, and I all use the same Apple ID, but we have different email addresses and phone numbers for facetime and imessage (we've never had an issue with imessage or facetime).  Today, I updated my phone and ipad to ios 7 and tried to experiment with airdrop.  On both devices it showed my son's name.  Then my son updated his ipad and we tested airdrop again.  His ipad shows up on my phone and ipad with his name as well.  The email address that I use for Apple ID is not associated with him on any device.  His name is not listed on our Apple ID account.  One of them shows his photo that he uses for his facebook profile, but the other's just have a gray circle with his first initial.  I'm hoping it's just a bug that will get fixed soon, but if anyone knows a fix, please share.

  • Pb! pics not showing in n85 gallery but in file ma...

    Hi!
    As it is writen in title, my pics not showing in n85 gallery but in file manager!
    I don't now if it is because I have uptdated till share online 4.
    I just have a blank screen with now pics showing. When I click on open, I just have white and grey icons with a boat in it but unable to open one.
    That's is really annoying as I bought this mobile phone for the multimedia advantages...
    Please need help!
    Thanks

    its either the presence of Share Online 4.0 or a firmware issue. the same thing happened with N78 until new firmware 20.149 rectified the problem of the thumbnails not displaying/displaying incorrectly. a new firmware should be on the horizon for N85 i'm sure 
    If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

  • ICal is not showing some past events since I upgraded to Lion.

    iCal is not showing some past events since I upgraded to Lion. I can find the past events in mail but if I click and open them, they are not showing up on the calendar. Advice? I am trying to recreate my schedule from past meetings.

    I love computers.
    Have managed to fix this already. Been working the issue for a few days now, and a few minutes after writing the above post I decided to reset the Time Capsule to factory default settings.
    After entering all my details again (used same network names, passwords etc) the Time Capsule was rebooted. When it came back on line - guess what? Yep, the MyBook WD drive is now visibile. I can connect via the network from my other machines to the drive, and iTunes is back.
    So - thought I would post my resolution in case it helps others.

  • Sign in not show as signed in and and watermark still on paid version 12

    After signing in under "help" tab it does not show as signed in and watermark is still on paid version.
    The adobe website shows that I have a Premier Elements serial number. I sat for 2 hours on hold with adobe chat with no results.
    I uninstalled the faulty program and swep the drive with a registry cleaner and reinstalled the program with the same problem.
    Running windows Vista
    I installed the program on the C:drive adobe folder with all the other adobe programs and its there, but also there is a adobe Premier Elements 12  folder in "Customers" "Documents" is this normal.
    The last time I had a instll problem was with Windows 3.0
    Tech support was better then.

    Your new thread constitutes a duplicate of a very recent thread
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/5965135#5965135
    Duplicate threads tend to be confusing for the person asking the question as well as the persons trying to help. I suspect a moderator should be along shortly to close this thread that we are in now and direct further replies to your issue to the original thread (link cited above).
    For now I will continue here briefly.
    1. What happened with the idea to explore the Event Viewer for Error relating to what appears to me to be an product activation issue?
    2. Have you contacted Adobe via its Adobe Chat to resolve this issue? Adobe is the only one who can resolve an activation issue.
    The link to use is the following:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?product=premiere-elements&topic=signing-in-to-my-accou nt-or-registering-my-product
    When the link opens, click on "I still need help." to bring up the Adobe Chat.
    I have pre-set the topic for Serial Number Issues and Activating My Product.
    In Premiere Elements 12 Help Menu/Sign In Sign Out constitutes Activation and Deactivation respectively. I cannot see that Adobe can interpret that any other way.
    We will be watching for further developments.

    Hi
    I have the a similar problem - only I can't actually get the calendar to show up. I've added the account and it's showing Mail and Notes but not Calendar. But I'd like it to show the outlook calendar.
    I'm going to
    Go to settings > mail contacts calendar
    select your account that's affected
    But under that account there isn't a calendar showing and I can't see any options to add it?

  • FCP X not showing Music, SFX or Still picture library

    Although I have both iTunes and IPhoto operating fine FCPX is not showing either to allow me to select directly from them. Neither icon in the effects window (bottom right) shows anything other than in one case 'Photos' and in the other "Music and Sound". A work-around for the photos has been to import them as an event but that is messy - there are enough events already! BTW I have the latest FTPX version running and am using Tiger 10.7.2. I have also tried running FCPX with the other two programs both open and closed...  nada!

    Yeah you'd think living in Africa I'd know they have no Tigers here - its been a long day in the jungle!
    So LION it is and I am running iTunes 10 (latest) and iPhoto 9 (don't want to upgrade that after the poor experiences people are reporting on the Community. ) I'd rather go Apperture if an upgrade is required.
