Uploaded photos by an SD-Card stored in an album. Next day all photos disappeared.

I live in Germany. After my visit in the U.S. two weeks ago I ´ve got following problem with my MacBook Air:
I import photos to iPhoto as usual and after one day these photos disappeared. I tried to find them through "Finder" without success.
What I do get since that is the message: "Files will be uploaded to the Mediathek". And that needs days and days......
Never had this before and I am really upset, because I think about loosing all these nice holiday memories.
Please, can anybody help me ?

edihei,
what exactly happened when you imported your photos?
as usual
how exactly? You imported the photos from your card directly into iPhoto? And did you delete them from the card or are they still on the card?
Did you see the photos in events in iPhoto after import? Have you worked with them and edited them before you ejected the card and quit iPhoto?
"Files will be uploaded to the Mediathek"
What is the exact message (gerne auch auf Deutsch!)?
This message suggests that you may not have let iPhoto finish the import, before you quit the program and removed the card.
Regards
Léonie

    Recently I downloaded photos from an sd card. When the download was complete all photos were loaded in a random fashion completely out of order.This is the first time it has ever happened this way. downloaded same card to iPhoto and all photos were in order. Help needed. Am working on a job that needs immediate attention and HDR images out of order are impossible to deal with.

    Thanks for your help. The out of numerical order comes before the actual import begins. It happens when first uploaded to Lightroom and prior selection of of photos to imported to the catalog.

  • In IPhoto or IPad, when I edit a photo in an existing album, the photo is removed and placed in a new album with only edited photos. How do I keep it in or get it back to its original album?

    When using IPhoto for IPad, can I move photos from one album to another? For instance, when I edit a photo in an existing album, the photo is removed and placed in a new album with other edited photos. How do I keep it in or move it back to its original album?

    That will depend on the kind of album your photo is in.
    Most albums in iPhoto are created automatic by the way you are using and editing your photos, see: http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/1.1/#blnkb9b1e2a
    When you edit your photo, the edited copy is added to the automatic "edited" album and the view switches to he edited album. But the photo should stay in its original album - do you see something different? Only if you want the edited photo in the camera roll and the photo strea as well, you have to save the edited copy to the camera roll again after editing, otherwise the camera roll will show the original and not the edted version.

  • In Photo 1.0, how does one access the map showing where all photos were taken, as could be done previously in iPhoto?

    Hi JohnDory,
    The information side-bar from iPhoto has been removed in Photos App, and so it's been converted into a pop-up window showing both the exposure, aperture and so technical photo parameters, as well as the comments, faces and LOCATION for that photo.
    This small floating window is shown whenever you click the button in the app title bar, right clicking a specific photo or pressing ⌘i
    If you open the albums view (clicking in the name of the album list, NOT an album name, you can see in your left sidebar - which can be shown or hidden) and press ⌘i without selecting a specific photo the Info pop-up will show the map for your whole library (as well as the total amount of photos, videos, GB used, etc)
    So, I'm afraid the "Locations" view (which I really loved) from iPhoto has been ripped off... and we can only get "some sort of locations view" by this method.
    As for locations... there is no option for manual geotagging (so, setting location to a specific photography which doesn't have it yet)... that really ****** me off 
    Regards,

  • FCP X deleted about 2/3 of events to a project and the project. I uploaded the project to vimeo from FCP X, and the next day when I tried to use FCPX, they were gone, the events are gone from fcp and my ext hd, the project is still on the ext hd.

    FCP X deleted about 2/3 of events to a project and the project. I uploaded the project to vimeo from FCP X, and the next day when I tried to use FCPX, they were gone, the events are gone from fcp and my ext hd, the project is still on the ext hd, but it won't recognize in FCP X even though my ext HD shows in the project tab. anybody any clue how to bring it back?

    Thanks for the reply Andy.
    No, I don't have identical projects on a second drive, only saving to the movies folder on internal HD. The files and media save there fine, but fcp doesn't seem to recognise them the next day, just opens with one new untitled event and no projects.
    I have tried saving to en external HD tonight and will see if the problem happens again with this set up when I restart tomorrow.
    But I should be able to save to internal HD, so something is going wrong...

  • "all photos" album not including all photos. Causing some photo not to be uploaded to iCloud Photo Library

    After updating to iCloud photo library (iPhone 5, iOS 8.1), if I look at my "photos" tab I see over 700 photos, but in the  'all photos' album I only have 420. This results in only 420 of the photos uploaded to iCloud Photo library and not clearing much space off of my iPhone.

    The FAVOURITES and PANOS albums also sort by date and time too. So all the albums sort by time and day except the ALL PHOTOS album! Seems very strange! What's even odder is that the date range listed at the top of the ALL PHOTOS album would suggest that they are sorted by date!
    Apple I hope you SORT this out soon

  • Facebook albums not showing all photos in iPhoto

    I'm trying to export all of the photos (several hundred) from Facebook to iPhoto. Facebook is having difficulty creating an archive, and rather than wait for them to fix whatever that problem is I'm trying to import them directly using the Facebook connector in iPhoto.
    I added the account and it shows up in the list of Web albums. However, when the account is opened, only three albums are present (instead of six) with a total of five photos (instead of hundreds). Does anyone have any suggestions for what to check to make sure that iPhoto is connecting properly and how to get the photos from Facebook imported into iPhoto?
    Please don't suggest downloading each photo individually, I don't have time to right click several hundred photos one at a time.

    The only Facebook albums that will appear in iPhoto will be manually created ones. Auto-created albums by other apps or Facebook itself (Instagram, Mobile Uploads, Wall Album, etc) won't appear. Are those the ones missing?

  • I had all my photos neatly in events on the MAC; with this new upgrade, all photos are renamed by location not what I want; how do I change this back?

    MAC; OS X Yosemite 10.10.3.
    All my photos on the MAC were in events named by me.
    Now, with this upgrade, all my photos are without my event names and named by iphoto by date and location (sometimes incorrect). I do not like this at all. I want to return to my events. How can I do this??

    Moments in Photos are the new Events, i.e. groupings of photos sorted by date taken.
    When the iPhoto Library was first migrated to Photos there was a folder created in the sidebar titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events (which are now Moments) are represented by an album in that folder. To open the sidebar if it's not already open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
    There's a way to simulate events in Photos.
    When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N.  Name it as desired.  It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
    When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window.
    The downside to the simulation is that the Albums/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title. But they can also be sorted manually, either in the sidebar or in the folder's window at the right.
    Ask Apple for more sorting options in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

  • HT204022 i had an ipad and mac air,,my concern is all my photos from my iPad is still there i already tried to delete and transfer  it to my mac air but still some of photos from photo stream still in my iPad how can i completely delete all photos from my

    im having a prob on how to tranfer all my photos from my ipad including the photostream and completely delete all my photos in my ipad,,help,,

    im having a prob on how to tranfer all my photos from my ipad i
    To transfer your photos:
    Transfer and erase the Camera Roll:
    Connect the iPad to your computer and launch Image Capture, iPhoto, or Aperture.
    Select your iPad in the Devices list and click "Import all".
    When the import finishes, you can erase the contents of the Camera Roll, if you want. That would be the quickest way, but deleting it on the iPad in the Photos.app would be safer, but more work.
    Delete photos and video clips you synced to your computer using iTunes: Connect your device to your computer and, in iTunes, deselect the photos and video clips you want to remove from your device. Click Apply, and click Sync.
    Delete the Photo Stream contents:
    How do I delete photos from My Photo Stream?
    You can delete photos from your photo stream the same way you delete other photos from your iOS device or Mac. Just select the photos you want to remove, and tap the trash can icon or click Delete. On your PC, select the photos you want to remove from your photo stream, right-click, and then select delete. When you delete a photo from Photo Stream on one device, iCloud will automatically delete it from the Photo Stream album or view on your other devices. Learn more about deleting photos.

  • Smart Album Not Displaying All Photos for Keywords

    Hello,
    hmmm ...
    I have a smart album looking for a specific keyword. This album is displaying the correct numbers of fotos with the correct keywords - but some fotos are not displayed (white background, filesize 0, exclamation mark when trying to edit).
    I have checked, that the fotos are still on place: they are in the library, the (same) keyword search out of the library is working, spotlight is finding them. I did a database rebuilt.
    But i have still the problem, which seems to exist only with smart albums.
    Any suggestions?
    Happy new year
    Ivo

    Hi Terence,
    You are right. The Photos are indeed missing, i opened the iphoto "original" folder, which ist empty. For what reason ever. The missing photos are others than i thought.
    Now i'm looking to restore them - i hope i have a suitable backup.
    Thanks.
    Ivo

  • Smrt album not syncing all photos to iPhone

    I made a smart album today, and then chose to sync that smart album to my iPhone from iTunes.  However, iTunes syncs only 5 photos.  Aperture tells me there are 86 photos. 
    I figured the problem was that only 5 photos had previews generated.  However, I have used the Update Preview function on 6 photos, as well as the Generate Preview function on 6 photos.  However, iTunes still says there are only 5 photos in the smart album.  (I chose 6 photos because in the best case for my test, I would get 6 new previews, while in the worst case I would get 1 new preview.  In any case, I would get some new previews.)
    When I use iPhoto to "Show Aperture Library", I see only 5 photos as well.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this smart album to sync?  Am I on the right track with the previews?
    thanks,
    nathan

    Huskte,
    Yes, other albums sync, although I have only 1 other album selected.  The rest of the Aperture -> iPhone integration is done by iTunes's "All projects within the past x days" selection.  Come to think of it, I'm not sure if they are all there...  I will have to check that out.
    Good suggestion, however, I'm pretty darn sure it doesn't have to do with the iPod Photo cache.  I tested the Aperture sharing capability by looking at this smart album through iPhoto, and it (like iTunes) says only 5 photos are in the smart album.  It's something to check when I get back to the mac, though.

    In iTunes find your device and navigate to the Photos tab at the top. Uncheck 'Sync Photos from' and click Apply. Do the results change?

  • Ipad mini photos are stored temporary and then disappear (the next day)

    My friedn bought the ipad mini and he has the following problem:
    He takes some photos from the camera and they are stored in the cameraroll album. The weird thing it that the next day the photos disappear from the album.
    What's happenng here?
    Also, there are some factory albums on the ipad mini. How can we delete those albums?
    Thanks in advance for the help

    This does work. Students can save the video on the camera roll and then upload them into their edmodo library. The next day they can open the video and export them to imovie and they are ready to go. I hope this helps.

  • Aperture 3.2.1 not importing all photos from card reader

    Aperture is not importing all photos from the card reader, i tried importing 720 photos and it was only seeing 480 photos, the card reader stopped reading, aperture was saying "loading assets", still,  like if it was still reading the card. and the first time it loaded the pictures the import button was not availllable once not all the photos were not all loaded when the loading assets message stopped.
    i  had to force quit aperture, ejecting the card from the reader, aperture, on relaunch was still seeing the card as present but it was ejected from the finder , and  physicaly on the desk.
    i had to go in Apple Acticity monitor to find a process that was still active , someting called mass media and had to stop it.
    my work around was manually copying the content of the card on the external hard drive about  9 gig of photos on the external HDD where i keep my aperture photos.  copying 9 gig of photos over usb2 took an 50 minutes.
    i had jpegs raw and some videos in 720p
    i have a MBP 2.26 ghz 13"
    a Canon 7D and a Lexar 16 gig compact flash card.

    I'm sorry, but I can't understand this paragraph. It seems like the "loading assets" message stopped but not all the photos were showing up in the import window. Were any of the photos duplicates? How long did you wait until you forced quit?
    When you say "the first time it loadedthe pictures" you mean you attempted before and got the same result?
    It does seem like it is either getting stuck on an image or is taking a long time to read the images off the card since the import button is not available...
    When you copied the files to your external drive, you were then able to import to Aperture?
    Thanks

  • All photos Album Versus Photos

    I've been reading all the descriptions about the difference between the "Photos" library as we were familiar with in iPhoto and the "All Photos" album that Photos has and I think I understand even if I disagree with the logic. I have a different problem. I took about 35 pictures with my DSLR today and inserted the SD card into my iMac and since I am still using iPhoto, I imported the pictures into iPhoto first and then opened Photos to import them. I went to the Photos library (at the top of the sidebar menu) and the pictures weren't there. I looked in the "All Photos" album and they were there. I also had several scans that I dragged into Photos and they appeared in both Photos and the All Photos album. When I checked the number of items in both the photos and all photos they matched but I looked through Photos and couldn't find the new pictures. They seem to be somehow hidden. What am I missing?
