Previously uploaded photos now are gone and show up as blank events. Where did they go?

I uploaded pictures onto iPhoto from my Europe trip about a month ago, and spent a lot of time editing them and separating them into different photo albums. When I opened iphoto tonight, all of the photos are gone - the names of the events still exist and the albums still exist, but they are totally empty. When I plugged in my memory card, iPhoto says the pictures are already imported, but they are nowhere to be found! I will be so disappointed if all of the edited photos are gone. Any help is greatly appreciated!

What has changed since it worked?

HT4910 I can't find my notes in my iCloud account. I checked my iPhone 4, and it says that they are still being saved to the iCloud. Where did they go?

I'm not familiar with the PC end of things, but in a recent post I read about someone using notes.exe to access notes (I'm assuming they knew what they were talking about) - would your installation of icloud app(s) include a notes program? At least do this, log into icloud.com with a computer browser and look in mail. There should be a notes "folder" listed along with the others you may have defined. Are you notes there? If not, that's the problem. Be sure notes is turned on in Settings>icloud on your device. if they are there, then it looks like the PC end is the problem - but I can't provide help concerning that.

An entire playlist "can't be found"; these titles are also missing from my music/media folder--where did they go?

I had a Christmas playlist that worked until this year. All songs appear on the playlist w/exclamation point. All say "can't be found." They have disappeared from my music/media files. What happened? Where did they go? How can I get them back?

There's not much to go on since we don't know what you've done to your computer over the past year, etc.
Have you used Spotlight to search the hard drive for the files? Did you perhaps drag them to the trash or a different directory sometime over the past 12 months?
If they are iTunes purchases you can download them a second time. If they are from a CD you can rip them again. If you have an old computer backup you can restore them from that.

When I updated to the new version for the IPhone and selected ICloud for backup location, my Notes have disappeared and you are no longer on my Desktop either. Where did they go?

When I installed iOS5 on my IPhone4 and selected ICloud for my storage location, all my Notes disappeared off my IPhone & Desktop. Where are they?

There must be a big pile of notes somewhere cause the same thing happened to me. If you find them let me know.

The Property Inspector is missing the V Space and H Space fields in DW6 - where did they go?

I just downloaded DW6. The Property Inspector is missing the V Space and H Space fields, therefore I am unable to add space around my images. Suggestions?

It is no longer available because the problem with that was that it applied spaces around the image rather than where the user actually wanted them. You now need to use CSS and apply margins and paddings and target exactly where you want them by using something like this:
img {
    margin-bottom: 0;
    margin-right: 0;
    margin-left: 0;
    margin-top: 0;
    padding-top: 0;
    padding-right: 0;
    padding-bottom: 0;
    padding-left: 0;
img {
     border: 0;
     padding: 0;
The second style is generic to set margin and padding for all four sides.
Good luck.

Only half of my collections show on my iPad. Where did they go?

I created approximately 75 collections on my Mac and on my iPad. They were visible on all devices but then they disappeared on my iPad and phone ibooks apps. The books do still show in Purchased. Help?

See:
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
Note that for non-iTunes purchases like music from CDs you need a third-party program like those discussed in the above link

I downloaded the software update to my iphone and lost all of my contacts? Where did they go?

I updated the software on my iphone 4. In the final stages, it asked me if I wanted to merge my contacts to ICloud? I said yes and it finished the sync. Now I have no contacts on my phone. Where did they go?
I am lost without my contacts?

check icloud.com..it will ask you to enter your apple id password..and then into contacts in there you should find your contacts

HT204150 Contacts were deleted from my iphone 5 and now are gone on icloud. Is there a way to find them from a previous icloud backup?

I updated my iPhone 4S and now all of my photos in the photo stream are gone

I updated my iPhone 4S with the latest software update OOS 7.0.6 and now all of my 1000 photos in the photo stream are gone. How can I retrieve them?

Only 1000 photos can be in Photo Stream and they will only stay there for 30 days.
After 1000 photos, the earliest get dumped.

They should still be in your Camera Roll.
You should sync photos to your computer using by connecting the iPhone or using iCloud.

I have uploaded photos from the past and they are grouped by dates. How do I seperate those photos into their own folder/album so that I can easily identify the contents. Also, what is the difference between Album, Smart Album and folders?

I have uploaded photos from the past and they are automatically arranged by date. As a result, there are many events grouped into one library/event/folder/album (not sure of the proper terminology) I'd like to separate them into folders/albums/smart albums so that I can easily identify the contents. How do I do that and do I delete the originals?

It would be good to take the tutorials and learn iPhoto - these are for the previous version but the concepts are the same and much of the command is the same - and it would be a worthwhile investment of time to take the iphoto tutorials - http://www.apple.com/findouthow/photos/ - they are very helpful and will save you a lot of time and frustration. - also the tutorials in iPhoto Help will be helpful - while iPhoto is easy and intuitive it does have a learning curve and it will save you time and pain if you spend a few minutes learning the basics
as to organization - events are generally time based and are the basic automatic organization - you can merge and split them to make them work better for you but they are not a good way to do detailed organization - best to leave them time based
albums are logical things that contain photos and are just pointers to the photo in the event so they take no extra space and all changes to a photo anywhere are reflected everywhere
Smart albums are the same except they are automatically filled based on the criteria you set when you create them
Folders are containers that you create and a folder can contain albums, smart albums or other folders so they are a big help in organization - like a vacation folder that holds folders for France, USA, China with each of thos folders holding albums of photos from the country

HT204406 I bought iTunes Match enabled it on my ipad now the 1800 songs in my library are gone and all I have is the music my daughter purchased from itunes how can I get them back. for her ipad.

I have ipad 3 & daughter new ipad mini with RD. She has nano and I have classic. Her nano syncs to her own laptop and mine to my desktop. I bought iTunes Match and authorised both iPads and both iPods. I have now enabled iTunes Match in my ipad and was warned it would replace my library. I pressed "enable" and now the 1800 songs in my library are gone and all I've got is the music my daughter bought from iTunes. What have I done wrong and how can I get my songs back. When I bought iTunes Match I got 1 e-mail confirming subscription and another providing receipt but nothing else no links etc. any assistance would be appreciated.

You can only upload music from your computer's iTunes, you can't do it from an iOS device - when you subscribe to iTunes Match on your computer it should have scanned your music library on it and matched or uploaded any non-iTunes purchased music to it.
Do you have copies of those tracks anywhere e.g. on an iOS device or on your backup of your downloads/library ? If they are iTunes purchases then they should be in the cloud. If they were copied from CDs or bought from other sources then if they are only on an iOS device (i.e. you don't have them on a backup) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

My Firefox has been crashing every day sometimes several times a day. I have emailed your staff back many times looking for a reason for the crashed without any response.

Thanks,

Nick, sorry to hear about that. I'm not sure where you are sending the emails, but if you use the form to submit your crash information, that goes into a database for review by the developers instead of coming to the support volunteers here.
Did you try the History > Restore Previous Session command? Firefox sometimes saves form data in the session history. This data may age out, so you should use that menu item as soon as possible.
Going forward, consider installing the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lazarus-form-recovery/ Lazarus: Form Recovery] extension if you are filling long forms and Firefox is unstable.
With respect to the crashes, there are many possible reasons for Firefox to crash. Have you reviewed the help articles for diagnosis? For example: [[Firefox crashes - Troubleshoot, prevent and get help fixing crashes]].

When I deleted and then recreated the same account all the emails are now gone. Where did they go?

I was having problems with getting mail from my verizon email account. Suddenly stopped working when checking mail. Sending was fine. No server settings were changed. So as a last try before the nightmare of finally giving up on them I deleted the account and then set it up again. I now get the emails but all the old ones are gone. Where did they go?
I've read all the posts about the verizon smtp ssl issues but this (the missing emails that were alreadiny in thunderbird) seems to be a TB question.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Jack

While synching iPhone, box popped up and said changes will be made to my contacts. If I didnt allow change, it wasnt going to continue to sync. Now half of my contacts are gone and I have all of my wifes contacts. Any way I can get mine back?

While synching my iPhone, a box popped up and said that so many of my contacts are going to change. That happened before and my contacts and my wifes contacts ended up in each others phones. So we just had to go through and delete the ones we didnt want. When I did it this time, half of my contacts are gone and I have all of my wifes. Any way I can get my contacts back?

You should have been sycning them with your computer all along. Sync them from your computer back to the iphone.

Previously uploaded photos now are gone and show up as blank events. Where did they go?
