Unable to locate photos

I just imported photos from my iPhone into iPhoto ('11, v.9.2.2). I had over 2,000 photos in iPhoto. I exited out of iPhoto for a few minutes but then opened it back up. However, when I opened it again all my recent photos were gone and the only photos that are showing are the ones i imported from iphoto when I bought my MBP last year. I've had this happen before but could always easily find my new version again, however, this time I cannot seem to find my new photos---everytime I opened iPhoto it only shows those very old photos (no photos are there for the last year) and when I search "photo" in finder, only those old ones show up.
Please advise on how to relocate my newer photos, I'm not sure if it's just a matter of finding a different version of iPhoto or a different library, but I cannot seem to figure that out.
Thanks.

what shows in last import?

Finder is unable to locate photos by Title, only by file name

I was able to locate all my pictures by simply typing words from the title (in fact I did that yesterday morning), but now Finder is unable to locate those files unless I search for the file name (For example: DSC005873.jpg). Why did it stop working? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated as it's a pain in the butt when you've got over 2000 photos.

Hello oo:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
It would be a complete guess to postulate what happened.
I think I would do a couple of things:
Run permission repair
Run repair disk from your software install DVD.

Unable to locate photos since iLife 08 updgrade

Greetings. Ever since upgrading to iLife '08 a couple of weeks ago, I have been unable to locate my pictures in the "Pictures" folder. Now there are no folders that are accessible (grayed out or missing). Did this have something to do with moving my pics, within iPhoto, into the events? I frequently attach pic files to outgoing emails as attachments...now I can't find them. In advance, thanks!

There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
To upload to MySpace or any site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.

I just backed up my 3gs iphone using itunes. All my photos and contacts have disappeared from my phone. I am unable to locate them on my computer. HELP!!!

I just backed up my 3gs iphone using itunes. All my photos and contacts have disappeared from my phone. I am unable to locate them on my computer. HELP!!!

OK, I understand. Try this ... it's much safer. It will simply restore your backup, but not do anything to your iOS:
While your iPhone is plugged in to iTunes, right click on the iPhone icon on the left side of the iTunes display.
Choose "Restore from backup ..." from the pop-up menu that appears.
Again, what this will do is place that backup back on your iPhone without changing iOS. So you should be very confident in the backup contents before doing this.

I want to make a slideshow to view on my television with image's duration ranging from seconds to an hour or more and I want to use my iPhone or iPad mini to control the television through my Apple tv. I've been unable to locate an app that will do this.

I want to make a slideshow to view on my television with image's duration ranging from seconds to an hour or more and I want to use my iPhone or iPad mini to control the television through my Apple tv.
I've been unable to locate an app that will do this. The Photos app that comes with the phone or iPad has extremely limited duration controls. PhotoStream seems to load everything from my phone or iPad not allowing me to just load up a set group of images.
iPhoto for iPad is getting some terrible recent reviews. I tried a couple other free apps but they don't use Airplay.
I can do something like this with iPhoto and my MB Air, but it's kind of ugly to have the computer open in order to connect by Airplay to my Apple TV. I've thought the iPad or iPhone would be a lower profile controller.
Am I out of luck?

Thanks for your help. Since I'm uninterested in loading all my photos (the only option) into photostream, I won't be able to use the settings in ATV. I guess I'm just stuck with using iPhoto on my MB Air. Thanks again.

after syncing,my free Memory dropped from 9.7 GB to 6.7GB and my OTHER memory went up from 1.36 to 4.36 for some reason.while Music, photos and APP memory stayed the same.

I checked to see if I have duplicates titles of my music in my ipod, and everything was the same.no duplictaes
I am unable to locate the additional 3GB I have under Others in my memory.
Is there a way to break down the memory Status Other in order to see what are the new 3 GB added to my phone?
HOw can I free my phone from the new 3Gb data?
Hoe to locate or delete the new data? any application that can break it down in order to locate the folder with the new data either in itunes or on my iphone?
I tried resorting but I still got the new memory status since I had synced my iphone several times trying to resolve the issue.
any help on this issue is highly appreciated

How to locate photos in finder through the Photos for Mac app?

Hi, is there an option to locate where the photos are saved in finder through the Photos app. This feature was available in iPhoto but I am unable to locate it in Photos.

I am also curious about this. What's the point of using a photo management app that will not produce changes in the finder? People are already complaining that they've had problems with the upgrade from iPhoto to Photos. If Photos becomes obsolete again, I want to make sure that I have all my pictures properly organized in folders. Is there any way to make this happen in Photos?

Unable to email photos and .pdfs

help!
I am unable to email photos from iPhoto, .pdfs, and photos others forward to me from Mail.
I have tried repairing permissions, moving the mail out to the hard drive and reopening, cursing, and other ineffectual things.
The photos and documents will email successfully from other computers using Mail .
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Nancy
so you set up a new user in system prefs- accounts? - not just a new mail account, right?
well hopefully the problem lies within your mail preferences file - do the following ( carefully!) to force mail to rebuild it, yet retain your messages. Your display settings will need setting again, but messages & rules should remain. You'll backup your mail first, so if anything goes wrong, you can get right back to where you are now.
If you have more than one or two mail accounts ( the account details will all need entering again) - you might look for an alternative fix before doing this.
Make sure you have a note of your mail account(s) details - incoming/outgoing servers, password, username etc . ( I guess you're ok with this, having set up a new user?).
Quit Mail
In Finder, navigate to home/library
locate the 'Mail' folder & alt-drag a copy to the desktop ( a green + sign should show that you're making a copy; not moving the original.
locate the file 'com.apple.mail.plist' in home/library/preferences. Drag this file to the desktop ( no alt this time - you want to move the original).
Open mail - you'll be asked for your account details - enter them exactly as they were before.
set up extra accounts when prompted ( if you had more than one)
You should find all your mail & mailboxes are there - open a few emails just to be certain.
Before changing any mail display/layout settings - test mail to see if your problem is fixed now.
If it's working fine - you've finished & the .plist file you moved to the desktop can be trashed.
I would advise keeping the copy of the Mail folder somewhere safe, & making a new copy as often as you like - preferably on another drive or CD/DVD disk. Then if Mail or your HD go nutso - it's possible to get all your mail back.
Let me know if this works - either way I'll make another post so you know how to restore your mail folder & settings if it didn't work, or if one day you need to use the backup to recover your mail & settings.

Unable to locate timecode in batch capture

Hi there, I have been working on this problem for a while and would really appreciate some help.
I have a documentary project I have been working on for some time and have completed the EDL. I am now trying to batch capture the footage again in full res and am having problems with a couple of the tapes.
First the specs:
The video was shot on a Sony HDR-HC1 in HDV(1080) mode.
I am using this camera to capture the footage.
I am trying to recapture the footage in a sequence with the easy setting on HDV1080i50.
I had originally captured the footage in SD on an older version of final cut pro (I am now working with FCP6) and didn't realise that my 16:9 footage was actually all 4:3 letterboxed. To fix this problem I used the media manager to export and then in the new project batch capture all the footage again from the tape. The project uses 18 tapes, 16 of which were batch digitised with only minor troubleshooting required. However 2 of the tapes are proving to be very problematic. It seems that whatever clip I select on the tape it gives me a message saying "unable to locate timecode".
I have tried setting the tape to the exact location of the clip before selecting the batch capture, but the computer always seems to look for a spot which is 2-3 mins out of sync with the clip. For example, if the in point is 00:10:00:00 the computer will roll the tape to around the 00:12:00:00 mark and start jogging around there for about 30 seconds until eventually giving me the "unable to locate timecode" message. Looking in the information in the bins, the in and out points are accurate, its just that when I try to capture, the computer rolls the tape to the wrong position.
If anyone knows a workaround for this that will help me avoid having to edit the footage all over again I will be extremely grateful.
Thanks
Liam

HI I have the same problem, the capture window says: Waiting for time code, the device must set in vcr mode and then This operation could not be complete as there is no video, the F!#!%$$ problem is very illogical ,at this mooring I do batch capture without a problem but since the second tape this problem starting, I update to FCP 6.0.4 and,. @@#%#@%#$ the first tape capture but the second not capture and the problem starting againd, note that IMOVIE capture the tape and work very well, iI replace fire wire, camera VCR and , I trayu with Canon, Sony, JVC and the problem persist , I have quicktime 7.4.5, FCO 6.0.4, note that I have two Macs with the same problem in both macs IMOVIE work like a PRO edition Software but FCP is very bad, I have with this problem a long time, I formated Mac, reinstall FCS2 many timers and the problem persist.

Unable to locate external device after upgrade

i have been using FCE 2.0.3 and mac os 10.3 to view clips on video monitor (tv) easy set up was dv pal. so i chose view and and then firewire from the FCE menu to review clips on video monitor through my cannon mv750i-worked ok until recently. I have also been able to capture as well. Nothing wrong with the camera as it works ok in another computer (power pc) which has mac os 10.4.7 but fce is still 2.0.3. So is something i am not doing?
i then upgraded to mac os 10.4 and fce to 3.5 and easy set up also at same dv pal and a window message comes up informing me that "unable to locate external device" or you have changed system configurations. I have made sure that the camera is on. so please can someone tell me what i can do?

When I recently upgraded from OSX 10.3.9 to OSX 10.4.7 I found that FCE 3.0 would not recognise the camera.
When I upgraded to QuickTime 7.1.2 the problem immediately disappeared.

I Tunes unable to locate music ?

I have just spent 7 hours updating our i-Tunes account. I successfully deleted the extra copies of tracks,located missing files,updated the library and then backed up the whole of i-Tunes.
I then backed up the whole I-Mac to an external drive and was busy patting myself on the back for an excellent job when I thought I would just check and see everything opened properly after a shut down. I didnt.
When i opened i-Tunes I could see all my albums,all the artwork,all the playlists, all the music files perfectly organised as I had left them.
BUT when I clicked on a tune to listen to it, i-Tunes gave me a mesage saying i-Tunes was unable to locate the music file ? I followed the link path to where the music was stored, user\music\ i-Tunes\ i-Tunes media etc and there was all the music as I had left it ??
When I clicked on any file in i-Tunes it could find it, but when I click on the media folder with the music in it opens i-Tunes up perfectly and plays my tune. I've tried emptying the whole i-Tunes library and then restoring it from i-Tunes folder but I get multiple copies of the allbums, missing artwork, missing files, some albums have one or two tunes missing and some are completely duplicated, e.g. I can see two copies of each track in the album..........I cant believe it ! why is i-Tunes so frustrating ? all I want it to be able to see one copy of each track on each album and keep it that way.
Is it something to do with my library ? is that corrupted ? should I delete the library and create a new one ? how do I do that ? How, (once I've got it back to how I want it) do I save everything and ensure it doesn't go reading something corrupt again. This is a nightmare...HELP

The exclamation mark for missing files is shown if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place. Changing the path to the media folder won't fix the links to files you've moved by hand.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then say no when asked to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions. I can provide a step by step guide if you give me the two paths.
In some cases iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps and locate the lost track. It may then offer to attempt to automatically fix other broken links. Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes. I would suggest you untick Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Keep iTunes Media folder organized before you start so that things don't have to move around as they are repaired.

Unable to delete photos from my ipad2 .

I am unable to delete photos from my ipad2. I am able to select the photos to delete but when I press the red delete button nothing happens. Is anyone else having this experience? Is there a known problem. Is there a solution?

You don't say what type of photos - were they taken with the iPad or synced from your computer ?
Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/wesites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing (if you were able to delete them directly on the iPad, then the next time you synced photos they would be put back onto the iPad, unless you remembered to also remove them from your computer).

HT1918 I am unable to locate where to change the phone number that is associated with my itunes account.

I am unable to locate where to change the phone number that is associated with my itunes account. I have a new number and the old number is no longer accessible by me. I've logged into my iTunes acct and it seems I can only change my appleID itself, my billing address info, and password and things like that. I cannot find where to remove a number and add a new one. I've gone to my mobile devices (iphone, ipad) as well as my mac and I'm getting a bit frustrated with it. I'm sure there's a simple solution and I'm just missing it. Going to settings>messages>send&receive....there is the old number and no option to make a correction. I've unchecked it but why can't I add the new number? On my iphone the ONLY option that shows up is my current number but when I set up my new ipad I have the issue described here. I want this number completely removed from my account there has to be a way to get it out of the system.
Also when going to settings>facetime>you can be reached at: shows email addresses as well as the OLD phone number with no option to make the correction, remove the incorrect number, or add a new number. I figured this was tied in to my appleID since thats when it showed up (right when I signed in on my ipad). So I went to itunes on my mac and went to my account and there I find AppleID Summary, itunes in the cloud, purchase history, and settings. I've gone through each of those and am still unable to figure out where to change it. Somebody PLEASE tell me where to find this data so I can change it. I've seen multiple inquiries about this all over the internet but everyone's solution is to do exactly what I've already done. No resolution to the real issue.

Apple will have it, but if there is ever a question/problem, the store that you made the exchange at will have it on record.
But if you're worried about it call 800-APL-CARE and see if they have it.
