Retrieving Deleted Photo Files

Somehow the files holding all my photos were deleted from my iMac and I was wondering if any one else as experienced this and if there is anyway of retrieving the files after they have been removed from Trash?
iMac (Intel dual core) Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Another place you can recover digital photos from is your camera's flash memory.
If they are recent photos and you haven't overwritten them with new photos, they could still be on the flash memory, even if your erased or reformatted the flash memory.
There are inexpensive programs for Mac and PC that let you recover them.

I accidentally deleted photo files, can I retrieve them?

I accidentally deleted photo files, is there any way to undo or retireve them?

I spoke too soon! The Picassa 3 photos do not import well into my elements
program! I just don't understand why, when I accidentally deleted the
files from elements, they don't show up in the trash bin. I looked/searched for
the pictures...they seem gone! Is it time to call in a tech? I really
appreciate your help with this, you can imagine how distraught it is to lose
about 6,000 pictures!!!

Can I retrieve deleted photos on my IPad?

Can you retrieve deleted photos from your IPad?

I suggest you search data recovery for ipad on the internet. There are some programs able to recover lost data nowadays. But some are just able to recover from iTunes backup files while some are able to recover directly from iPad.

Hi my question is how can I sort and delete photo files which I have had backed up multiple times? Another way how can I get rid of from the duplicate?

Provide the name of the program you are using so a Moderator may move this message to the correct program forum
The Cloud is not a program, it is a delivery process... a program would be Photoshop or InDesign or Muse or ???

Retrieving deleted photos from iOS 8

Is there a way to retrieve deleted photos after downloading iOS 8? I have iCloud but I do not know how to access it. I am not technical at all so any instructions are greatly appreciated.

I have the same problem. I plug in my iPhone 5s and all my photos were in the folder with pictures but I had more than a half less in my gallery on phone. If you have backup of all your photos on laptop, you can sync them to your phone via iTunes but you can't delete them when they are on your phone. I tried.

If they were photos taken with your iPhone and you have Photo Stream activated through iCloud they are in the cloud. If not - they are in the wind.

Restore your iPhone from the last backup you made before you deleted the photos from the iPhone. An iCloud backup (or an iTunes backup) saves the content of the camera roll.

If you have an older backup that contains you deleted photos you could extract them with 3rd party software such as http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/.

If they were in the camera roll on your iOS device when it was last backed up, they would be included in the backup. Restoring the entire backup should recover them.

I can't delete photo files to make room for iOS 8.

I can't delete photo files to make room for iOS 8.

Ive had this and solved it an entirely different way very quickly.
Connect the ipad to the imac (i assume its an imac);
Fire up itunes;
while thats happening create a new folder called EMPTY in your Pictures folder on the imac;
go back to itunes;
select the ipad;
go to photos on the ipad;
select SYNC FROM SELECTED FOLDER;
select your EMPTY folder;
then hit SYNC and the photos / videos in photo albums / the albums will all instantly disappear.
We had 7.98 Gb of syncd fotos and videos on the ipad and tried all the more lengthy [and unsuccessful] ways suggested elsewhere.
There was so little space we couldnt u/d the IOS !
OK, so we werent bothered about keeping the fotos that were on the ipad (they'd all been filed in iphot on the imac so not 'lost').
Nice to find a solution for yourself when you're a silver surfer in your mid '60's

How do I delete photo files on my Iphone?

How can I delete photo files on my Iphone?... I am able to delete pictures I take with the Iphone, but am unable to delete photos from my computer???

Photos in the Photo Album are synced one way from the computer to the iPhone. If you connect the phone, then click on the Photos tab you can see what folder on your computer will sync to the Photo app. To remove photos from the Photo Album on the phone you must remove them from the folder on your computer, then sync the phone.

How do I retrieve deleted photos?

I deleted photos from the computer files but can still view them on pse 9. I accidently deleted them from the recycle bin, so can't retrieve. Is there any way to restore them?

PSE only keeps reference and a preview thumbnail. If you have deleted or moved the photo from the original place, the reference will be gone and you can see only the preview in organizer but organizer will mark it missing. There is no way to retreive the deleted photos in Organizer.
Yes syncing online is a good option. However, if you choose to delete the photo from organizer, it will delete the same from the online too. But deleting from organizer does not mean deleting from the hard disk.

IPHONE 5 RETRIEVE DELETED PHOTOS WITHOUT BACKUP

Hi,
Hope anyone could help me.
Is there any way to retrieve my photos (taken last night then accidentally deleted earlier this morning)???
Just got my new iphone 5 (last week) and I forgot to ON my icloud that's why I dont have the backup files.
Please help me, I hate this feeling. I really need to retrieve all the important photos.
Thank you.

You can use iOS data recovery, I've tried and test it on iOS 6 on my iPhone 4, so I can't guarantee anything for an iPhone 5 but I would be fairly sure it would work.
First restore your iPhone 5 from backup so it has all your pics which you want to save on your phone (among the useless extra stuff you don't want). Then back up your phone and open iOS data recovery and locate your most recent backup. Find photo file and select then and export them to your desktop (along with the info which it asks, required to restore into a backup).
Then restore your phone to new and do not restore from backup. Once it's back to factory settings, back up your phone (obviously this will backup practically nothing as you have just restored it). Then open it and locate the clean backup you just created. Then choose "import" and select the pic file and import them into your backup. Once this is done, go to iTunes and choose restore from backup and select this backup. This should keep everything clean, and just put the photos back onto your phone, aka your photos and contacts.

When using a Seagate 1T external hard drive and Time Machine to back up hourly, if I delete photo files from the Mac hard drive before the next back up, are these retained on the Seagate drive or will they be lost (overwritten) in the next backu in the ne

Does Time Machine erase previously saved files if, say, photos are deleted from the Macbook upon the next update, or will they be stored indefinately despite the current status of the files stored on the computer? Eg. can I bckup photo files to a Seagate 1T disc and then delete them to make more room on the computer in the knowlwdge that they are always going to be on the Seagate disc? Sorry if this is very elementary but I have not used a back up before like this, and am not sure how successive backups are overlaid or retained. Thanks!!

TM is not designed to do what you ask. As Allan wrote TM is an incremental backup not an archival solution.
If you delete a file from the HD it will eventually be removed from the TM backup (if it ever makes it on to the backup at all).
How long before it is removed depends on a number of factors, TM disk drive size being one factor but not the only one.
Material that is impossible to replace and is important to you (image files usually fitting that description) need to be backed up to as least one other drive and preferably more for long term storage.

How do I stop deleted photo files from restoring themselves?

I've had this problem since Mountain Lion: I will delete image files (JPG and PNG) just to have them reapear a few days later in Finder. I've tried "Secure Empty Trash" but they still come back. I thought it might be Time Machine restoring the files, so I unplugged my USB hard drive that it backs up to only to find the files are still coming back. Please help!

If you're syncing, you have to unselect the photos you no longer wish to sync, and they won't show up on your phone anymore.
