What´s happended to my iPhoto?

By a mistake I moved some files around, ad all the photos in iPhoto disappeared. I managed to find them again by trying something I found on these pages. They came back in a "Recovered photos" folder. Unfortunately I cant edit them, open them in edit mood, open them in another (HP Director) program. I cant transfer pictures from HP Director either. Get a message saying the program doesent recognise the file type.
Please help.

What "files" did you move around, and were there any other consequences?
You did not mention that you could not open the photos in iPhoto. Can we assume that is the case?
Select one of the photos, then get info (Command + i). Under Kind, what does it say?
Further down Open with, is there an application selected?
Good luck.

  • Macbook pro over 5 years old phoned up because it fell onto the floor and mad a big bang looked at screen it was cracked and battery looked liked it had exploded i explaind what had happend and was told that it was normal how dangerouse is that no warning

    mac book pro 17 over £2000 when new in the middle of the night i heard a loud noise found out that my laptop was on the floor looked and seen screen was craked and that what looked to me the battery had exploded coursing it to fall on to the floor the was nor warning and have had no recal letters from apple warning me that this may happen . so i phoned up apple and was speacking to some one i have thare name but wont say explaind what had happend an he said that it was normal to my shock as if it landed on any one or poss a pet as it was random .he said it was normal more than once and also i was on speaker phone and had some one else listening .i asked for him to send me what he had said via email but he said he could not so he put me through to some one called katalin who said to ignore what he had said . but at this stage i had two isues one that my expensive laptop is damaged .and the second it thta thay admited liyability by saying it was normal
    after many emails and phone calls i think there best offer was if i spend about 184 pound thay would give me a £54 discount which as i have just spent over £2200 on new macbook pro was a bit on an insult
    i do under stand that batterys do charge but as i had no warning especial if this was going to happen
    if as thay said this is normal as it was bourght from apple direct should thay have sent a letter or email as thay would have had my details warning me that this can randomly happen as in my case .
    the battery in my opinion has exploded ref defonition and .
    my consern is that this could have been alot worse and no warning even thay admited that it is normal
    .that sent me a letter basicly say all about my waranty .but how can this be so defently a safty isue regarding my case
    i cant just buy new battery because screen craked and dont no any other things wron ref fall fery disapointed with apple but i do not have the money or time to take any further .i and my familey have many apple products and were due for upgrading but hard to think are thay save.as iphones /apads/macbook /macbookpro/and other products very disapointed .dont think i would have been treated this way by dell

  • What does one do when iPhoto version 7.1.5 only opens one event without showing all photos?

    What does one do when iPhoto version 7.1.5 only opens one event without showing all photos or any other events?

    Depends -what other clues? What recently changed? Do you have a good current backup?  best guess is to Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - and repair the database - if that does not resolve things rebuild your iPhoto library database

  • What are the differences between iphoto ios5 and iphoto ios6?

    what are the differences between iphoto ios5 and iphoto ios6?

    There is no difference unless you update iPhoto.
    The iPhoto.app was updated and now version 1.1 is available. This version includes the ability to create Shared Photo Streams if you have iOS 6.

    You should get your keyboard checked as it's repeating  on a lot of keys and makes you look silly.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

    Oops - for some reason, this problem now seems to have gone away. May have had something to do with Flash. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

  • What does it mean in IPhoto repairing library database?

    I opened iPhoto and it gave me an error regarding my library database.  What does this mean?  It is now "repairing library database".  What is this doing?

    iPhoto is essentially a database index that keeps track of the photos in its library. When something goes wrong with that database index, it can be rebuild to fix errors.
    You can read more about this in this article  iPhoto 6 and later: Rebuilding the iPhoto library

  • What profile to use in iPhoto 6?

    What's the best colorsync profile to use in iPhoto?
    The reason I ask is that I have over 4,000 pictures going back to 2001. Some have no profiles embedded, some have CameraRGB, some have AdobeRGB(1988), and who knows what else. Every time iPhoto gets updated it screws up some of my pictures. I've spent the last day figuring out why and think it's because some of the pictures have no embedded colorsync profile. These are the ones that differ all over the lot when viewed in iPhoto, Photoshop, or Preview. An embedded profile seems to make them all look the same. I checked some of these profiles in ColorSync Utility and noticed that AdobeRGB(1988) seems to have the biggest color gamut. Is that meaningful?
    Anybody?

    I don't have to visit every web site manually with a web browser to see if there's new material to be pushed to me. My RSS client polls for updates (at a time and rate suitable for me and my ISP's network provision) and presents me with a list of things I might like to view.
    I would think a notification would be far more timely and less taxing to networks than hourly polling of any number of RSS feeds.
    I can then choose which to view rather than having them shoved down my throat with yet another notification. It's bad enough on the iPhone when someone decides their news item is so important they have to notify me about it. I'd rather decide for myself to be honest.
    I'm a bit confused about this one. If you want to subscribe to an RSS feed, why wouldn't you want to be notified. Notifications are pretty unobtrustive. If you don't click on them, they go away in a couple of seconds.
    Then again, without Mountain Lion I don't get the notifications either do I?
    Nope

    What is the problem with IPhoto ´11 when I am uploading a photobook to apple store, there is always an error. Anyone ???
    evrything is right wite my appleID.

    First try to create a pdf file of the book as described in this Apple document: iPhoto '11: Preview a book, card, or calendar before you order or print it.
    If you are unsuccessful in creating the pdf file then boot into  Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode and try again.  If that works you can continue and order the book while in Safe Mode. 
    Be sure to keep the pdf file of the book to compare with the printed copy when it arrives.

    I have an iMac 2013 running OSX 10.9.4. I want to use Carbon Copy Cloner to backup user files to an external hard drive to free up space on my iMack Hard drive.
    So, say I make the backup today, delete iphoto libraries from my iMac, and then backup my iMac in a week. What happens to the iphoto libraries that are on the external backup drive now that I am backing up the iMac where they no longer exist?
    I will have them backed up to a separate second external drive as well.
    I'm just very cautious about removing them from the hard drive.
    Thanks for helping and understanding my crazy caution!

    I'd like to store my Aperture /IMovie Libraries on an external hard drive.
    That is fine and recommended.. use the fastest disk you can afford.. ie Thunderbolt>USB3>FW800>USB2.
    In addition, I'd like to partition the external hard drive so that Time Machine can use it to both back up my IMac and the external library drives.
    Let me be clear.. you want to partition the one disk.. use it for TM and move your files to the external disk.. and then backup to the same disk.. You can do it.. but that is not a backup.. that is an experiment in how long you can get away with running files and backups on the same disk before you lose everything.. like Russian Roulette.. pull the trigger enough times and laws of probability will do you in.
    You must have backups on a different disk .. otherwise it is pointless.
    Can I set up a RAID 5 format for redundancy?
    No.. you can buy special USB and Thunderbolt external drives that support RAID..
    BUT that is still not a backup.. let me show why.. you make a silly move and corrupt your file in aperture.. it is not that rare.
    Raid will corrupt all copies of the files.. it is replicated across all disks.
    Delete a photo it is deleted across all disks.. you have no recovery.
    Alway, always consider RAID system one disk.. backup onto another disk.. and if the photos or movies are at all important to you.. ie your family .. make another copy and store in a relatives house.. There is no such thing as too much redundancy.
