Slideshow Themes Have All Disappeared

I lost all my iPhoto and Aperture slideshow themes after upgrading to iLife '11. At first everything worked fine and I was able to access the existing and new slideshow themes in Aperture from the new iPhoto '11 upgrade (as advertised). Then it all broke.
Now I have no slideshow themes (or functionality) in either app. I'm not sure the exact moment that this all happened but just noticed it when trying to edit a few existing slideshows. The structure and music is all there but the slideshows are blank because there are no themes at all, just blank.
I repaired permissions, checked file structures, did a clean reinstall of both apps AND Snow Leopard, did every routine maintenance procedure there is. Nothing works. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Maybe there is a corrupt file that is shared by the two apps to manage slideshows? I've looked and looked, so far nothing works.

Success!
I'm documenting this in case anyone else encounters the same problem. There are three files that can be found in HD>Library>Application Support. These files are: iLife, iLifeMediaBrowser, and iLifeSlideshow. They somehow got corrupted in the upgrade process to Aperture 3.1 and/or iLife '11. The thing is that trashing the corrupted files in hopes that a clean reinstall will rebuild them does NOT WORK. It simply makes shared media unavailable to any of the apps. I had to restore the files from Time Machine from a previous state.
This took an entire day of troubleshooting to figure out. I hope this helps avoid this for anyone else.

No you won't be refunded, it's your responsibility to keep copies of your purchases. Have you not got copies of them on backups ?

HT204053 On several serarate occassions my notes and reminders have all disappeared from my phone...These are importants appts, etc. how do i get them back? I back up regurally

On several occassions when I open my phone and go to add a new note or reminder as soon as I open the app the stored messages all disappear...These are important appts. and reminders, etc. I back up regularry.....Is there any way i can retrieve these?

Need to find out what is your default notes and reminders. check corresponding websites. Example - my notes default is icloud - I go to icloud.com. My default notes are yahoo - yahoo.com and so on.

My yahoo e-mail folders have all disappeared except the inbox and trash.

I had a full list of folders in each of my yahoo accounts. They've all disappeared and I can't figure out how to get them back. I've already tried the procedures below:
1. I've right clicked on the account already and there is no "subscribe" button.
2. I went to the menu and clicked on "view" and "folders" and "all" was already checked.
3. I went to the settings and clicked on "server settings" and "advanced". It does not have the option of showing unsubscribed folders in it. It actually just says "when downloading this pop mail for this server, use the following folder for new mail. Then it give a choice of "inbox for this server's account" and "inbox for different account" and then there is a box that says "include this server when getting new mail."
Please help, I use my folders for storage for organization for knowing where things are more easily. I need them to be able to refer back to. Thanks with whatever you can assist with. PJ

I had looked at the Troubleshooting Info before but couldn't quite figure out how it would help.
With the help of Google I have now figured out how to kind of "see" the contents of the folderTree.json file. This file shows at lest some of the missing folder names but I have no idea to restore visibility of these folders.
The Upload images wouldn't accept the .json file but I have attached a SNIP of part of the file as displayed by "notepad". The entry "mailbox://nobody@Local%20Folders/Eudora%20Mail/Stans%20Mail/Funy-inspirational%20collections" is clearly one of the missing folder names.
So I know that some and probably all of the folder tree exists in memory somewhere and I also have daily B/U of the entire Hard Drive. The question is how to get them back where I can use them?

Podcasts have all disappeared after name editing

I used copytrans manager to edit podcast names on my ipad, there were 160+ podcasts, after they were all edited, i updated my ipad, all was fine, then clicking on the podcast folder on my ipad, i couldnt open the folder, however i could find all my podcasts under the search on the homepage. A couple of days later i synced some photos onto my ipad, and now NONE of my podcasts are there apart from the ones i didnt change the names of (about 5), they wernt backed up to my computer because they were downloaded directly on my ipad, they cant be downloaded again because they are radio podcasts and only go back a few months where as i had them from the very start of the year. How do i get them all back?? Any help would be much appreciated!

Were your podcasts IGN podcasts, perchance? I went into my app about an hour ago to listen To a new episode of Podcast Beyond and it started downloading, then disappeared and now there are no episodes in its feed. I looked at all of my other feeds and the IGN ones are the only ones that are like this. I have Unlocked, NVC, and GameScoop all acting this way. I went to the storefront and tried downloading the Beyond episode from there, but that didn't work either. It added it to my feed, but when I try downloading it, it just errors out immediately.
Edit: I thought I should add that I am on an iPhone 6 Plus with iOS 8.1.1.

I have lost all of my regular pages stored in "current" or possibly "favourite", I can't totally remember. However, since upgrading to iO7.0.3 they have all disappeared. Please help!

Since updating to iOS 7.0.3 all of my icons stored under Current or possibly Favourite have disappeared. Can you help me to get them back and also store new web pages in the same place?

You can go to the websites and bookmark them as favorite. If you can't remember the web addresses they should be in bookmarks history.

I've lost all the files that were on the desktop. All the folders are still there with subfolders but the files have all disappeared. Someone please help!

It's been over a month since I accessed my files for work. (microsoft office, photos, videos) Today when I came in to work I realized that all the files on my desktop had disappeared. (it's just the desktop) I didn't do anything with my computer. I didn't use my computer for almost the entire month. I don't know where they are or what happened. I really need these files back ASAP..... help please!

Unless the files were dumped in the Trash unintentionally, your files are still on your computer, somewhere. It's pretty easy to put files or folders in places without knowing it, but there is a good technique to find your data.'
Think over a file or folder whose name is familiar. Then, press Cmd-Space at the same time, which brings up Spotlight - the easiest way to locate files, folders, history, and much more. If you end up with a blank the first time, try again until you have a hit. If you have a hit, note the location of the files/folder; it's likely that all of your lost documents are in the same place.
Post if you have success, or need more help!

what could have happened to all my data files in pages, numbers and keynote? they have disappeared - though i'm not using ios8

I have the same problem. For about 1 month ago I extended my iCloud storage account (+20 GB) in order to maintain my backups for iPHONE and iPAD as my account would expire 14/10. In spite of this, I got an email 15/10, which said that iCloud was reduced to 5 GB. 2 hours later I received a new email with comfirmation on the purchase of +20 GB storage plan. However, I only have access to 5 GB on my iPad and iPhone. Called Apple Support but they couldn´t help me. Did you find any solution ?

Community profile pictures have all disappeared

It seems that all profile pictures in the community have disappeared.... All I get is the blank default picture.
Clearly, my pictures are still there, why else would I get a remove/change option (see image).... They simply don't show.

Purchases and Music have all disappeared !!! Please help!

1. I had a hard drive failure. I had to reinstall the OS. I lost everything.
2. I reinstalled itunes and tried to sync it with my iphone.
3. The sync removed my purchased apps, music, and ringtones.
4. I'd like them back. How do I go about doing this?

Unless you have a backup of your itunes media, its gone. Purchased apps you can re-download for free, the rest is history unless you have a backup.
By design, the iphone will sync itunes content with ONE computer at a time. Any attempt to sync such content with a second computer will result in ALL itunes content being first erased from your phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. This is a design feature & cannot be overridden.
When you reinstalled your OS, your iphone saw your computer as a new computer, hence the itunes content removal from your phone. Its expected that you maintain a backup of this content, as well as all other important data on your computer.

Apps have all disappeared from my account

I upgraded to the new iPhone software - had to do a restore as there were errors.
Now all of my apps have gone from my phone and i can not re download them as they have gone from my account so the apps store say there is nothing to download.
I have evidence that i have them as i have most of the receipts.
Have contacted Apple but they dont appear to understand the issue and seem to think it is reasonable to send me one message every 24 hours.
Has anyone had this problem and know a fix?
Does anyone know the procedure to complain to Apple about their service (or lack of)?

3rd party Filters have all disappeared in latest version PS-CC 2014.2.2 (20141204 r310 x64)

Hi
I Upgraded just a few days ago, I think they were there yesterday (but I wasn't looking for them, so could be wrong). Now, they've all gone - Topaz, Nik, & others. So the upgrade may have magic'd them away . . .
Any ideas . . . ? . . .
thx
MJ

well maybe, but first I wanted to see what anyone else with the same problem did . . . it's a pain, it shouldn't happen, exactly what testing are Adobe doing . . . but I digress . . . just like to see if anyone's found a "1-click solution" . . .

My thumbnails have all disappeared. If I view events there is the same one for all 270 events and if I open an event I have clack thumbnails. I can only see the photo if I open it individually.

If I view events there is the same thumbnail for all 270 events and if I open an event I have black thumbnails. I can only see the photo if I open it individually.The only way I can then see the thumbnail is by editing each photo. Then to even further complicate matters the last editted phot is replaces as the thumbnail on all events foders!...grrr. This is what I awoke to two mornings ago after inly backing up my machine which I do every night.

No. Quitefrankly I didn't know I could even use iPhoto on iPad, I just have the photos app that came on it. This is on my laptop. I don't particularly like iPhoto I use it essentially to take photos off my camera and store all the originals. I use Photoshop. To work on them and store them in Dropbox (don't get me started on iCloud!). As I said this is a problem that seemed to crop up overnight after backing up to my external HD.
