Some "events" on "all events" stay black. Photos in them can not be opened in full size, why?
Some of my "events" on "all events" stay black. When i'am with the cursor over these "events" the pictures in it are shown. Why do these events stay black and why can't i open the pictures in it in full size? When i zoom them up they become a black triangle and the diashow shows only these black triangles.
Has anyone an idea how I can make those events and the photos in it to be seen and open in full sizes?
The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

How do I consolidate all of my events into one big group of photos so I can see them all?
The title says it all. How do I consolidate all of my events into one big group of photos so I can see them all? Instead a bunch of events.
drag them together
Or click on Photo in the source pane on the left and under the view menu uncheck show event titles

I just downloaded 950 photos on iPhoto and deleted them off my camera and now under last import there is only 4 photos and i can't find the others?? There is a whole bunch of blank events in the library with no photos in them all with todays date? Help!!
Yes - you need a min of 10 GB just to operate - with just 1 you certainly can lose photos and other critical things - you need to make space immediately - probably by moving your iPhoto library to a volume formatted Mac OS extended -
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

I created a new collection and put all of my same photos in them as a previous collection, then I changed them to black and white and both collections changed. How do I keep the first collection colour and make the second collection black and white.
For the second collection, choose the option to make virtual copies. Then you can turn the virtual copies to black & white, leaving the first collection in color. If you want file copies of the B & W images you can export copies.

Transferred backed-up data from external hard disk to new hard drive on my MacBook Pro which seemed to be successful. I now find that some (or maybe all) old emails have been resent. Can anyone tell me what has happened?
Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,

I have a problem with Iphoto '06. I have approximately 28000 photos. Recently all but 5000 have disappeared. I can not find or restore them. Any suggestions?
This is what the inside of an iPhoto 6 library looks like:
Where in there did you look for the image files?
Did you run any updaters pror to discovering the missing photos? What fixes have you tried? Do you have a backup of the library on another hard drive?

IPhoto can not be open, can i get back my photo?
Hi all,
My iPhoto is not woring, it can not be open , but no any message. It just can't and keeping loading for a longgg time.
What can i do? i have a lot of photo inside , and i don't wanna lost it.
Someone told me to take it back in the iPhoto Library Manager, but where is it ? i can't find it in my 'Picture' folder'
P.S I tried to open iphoto with another, it's work!
PLZZ help me to fix that! i can't live without it.
Thanks a lotTry these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption. -
The photo "Image.jpg" could not be opened.
Every time I launch iPhoto, I get this annoying error message: The photo “Image.jpg” could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found."
I think I know what it means, that there is possibly a broken link between a photo and a pointer to that photo in the library? But I don't know how to go about fixing it. Any suggestions?

Thanks.Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I recently synced my iphone 5s to itunes. It erased my photos and I can not locate them on itunes. They are nowhere to be found. How can I restore them back to my phone?

The pic sync is one way - computer to iPhone.

how did you do these delations? in the iPhoto window or using the finder
do you have a referenced library ( (The iPhoto advanced preference to "copy imported items to the iPhoto library" has been unchecked) which is strongly NOT recommended. ) or a managed library (that option is in its default checked state)
