When deleting photos that have double and or tripled they have not deleted-

Ok I have posted here once before and have never resolved my problem and would really like to try and get resolved some how. I have four apple computers in my home network 1 eMac 1GHz, 1 G4 dual Processor 867MHz, 2G5 1.6GHz, 1.8GHz iMacs. All them have double if not triple photos from the same photo files from our external Hard drive that we have connect to our Apple air port extreme 802.11. now inside the external hard drive shows only one file that we all back up onto. But everyones machines were fine for awhile after doing a clean install of operating system. After a while slow but surely everyones machine started getting double and triple photos. all the same with the same id info. So I found a discussion on here before how to try and remedy this problem, but seems to have no effect and now my photos on all the machines are quadrupling for some reason cant figure it out but would like to get this fixed. I also would like to remove photos that have been deleted and clear up needed storage space.

Do I undertsand you correctly? You are trying to share a library across 4 machines and you keep getting duplicates - or more?
How have you this sharing set up? How do the various iPhotos access the pics? Do they have a single shared library? Or 4 seperte libraries sharing a single pool of pics?
As much detail as possible please, but it sounds like there iPhotos are re-importing pics rather than actually sharing.

Every time I open iPhoto a window opens telling me that there are 3 photos that have not been imported. Recovered folders are opened with no photos and I cannot find which photos have not been imported. Help please!

Every time I open iPhoto a window opens telling me that there are 3 photos that have not been imported. This happens twice. When I answer yes then nothing happens and if I answer no then a recovered folder is opened with no photos in it. These recoverable folders keep opening with no photos in them. I cannot find which photos have not been imported. Can anyone assist please?

Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?
If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

Photos that have not been imported message

Every time I launch IPhoto a message appears that there are photos that have not yet been imported. I click yes to import and a new message appears that says the photos are unreadable. IPhoto then creates a new album titled "recovered photos" which is empty. How can I stop this?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Control-click on the iPhoto Library package/file and select "Show Package Contents" from the resulting menu:
Click to view full size
Look for a folder titled "Import" or "Importing" and move it to the Desktop ( NOT "Auto Import"). Do not move or otherwise alter anything else in the library.
Close up the library and launch iPhoto. That warning should be gone. Look in the "Import" folder and see if the image files there are those you want to keep. If so drag them into the open iPhoto window to import. Otherwise, drag the folder to the Trash.

How do I save photos that have been synced to my Ipad2, so that they do not get deleted when I sync with a different photo file on my computer.

How do I save photos that have been synced to my Ipad2, so that they do not get deleted when I sync with a different photo foder on my computer (Pc win7).

Place that first folder of photos that you synced to the iPad within the main folder of photos that you sync from and select them to sync again. You can place any number of subfolders within the main folder that you sync from and select those folders to sync. Just "tick"(select) the folders in the photos tab in iTunes.

I have been saving photos that have been emailed to me. They show up in the camera roll and then I put them in separate albums. My camera roll when I try to open it freezes and the thumbprints are a jumbled and blurred. This is on my ipad.

I have been saving photos that have been emailed to me on my ipad. They show up in the camera roll, but when I open the camera roll the thumbprints are jumbled and blurred and frozen. I can't get out of there unless I shut my ipad down and restart it. I can use other parts of my ipad ,but my camera roll remains frozen....help!

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
No data will be lost.

Whenever I try to open iPhoto, a message comes up saying that 148 photos have been found in the iPhoto Library that have not been imported. It asks me if I want to import them and I say NO but then it places them in a recovered photo folder. I keep deleting the empty recovered photo files but it just keeps asking me every time I go to open iPhoto! I'd love to just get rid of the "found" photos (I can't open them anyway!)
How do I get rid of them so that I can just open iPhoto straight up without this?

Open your iPhoto Library package with the Finder.
Click to view full size
look for a folder titled Import or Importing and move it to the Desktop. Launch iPhoto to see if the message goes away. If there is no message check the contents of the Import folder to see if you want to keep any of those image files (usually they have not been imported into iPhoto). If you want to keep them then drag the folder into the open iPhoto window to import.

Error message when compiling book "file is corrupt" referring to a photo. Or "cannot find original photo". Can you use photos that have been "edited" out of "Book Mode"?

I did copy it to my desktop, but it still won't let me open it. I think the file on the disc might be corrupt or something like that though the cd itself checks out fine as far as viruses go. I was able to verify the disc, but that's about it. My husband tried it on his iMac and we have the same issue. It's unzipping the folder, but won't let us open the folder on both the Mac Book Pro or the iMac by double clicking, going to file/open or right clicking. It just keeps saying the same message as I posted above. I think I'm just going to have the client put the pictures on either a memory card or a USB memory stick so she won't have to compress the files for zipping purposes. It's been too frustrating trying to open this folder on this cd she gave me. She said she created/zipped the cd on her Mac Book Pro but it sure won't open on mine.

Photos that have been deleted to aperture trash cannot be viewed. Any assistance is welcome in fixing this bug. The showing all files option is selected in the filter. System is 10.8.4, aperture version 3.4.5

Photos that have been deleted to aperture trash cannot be viewed. Any assistance is welcome in fixing this bug. The showing all files option is selected in the filter. System is 10.8.4. Aperture version 3.4.5. Used to be able to view the files then all of a sudden they have stop appearing. Once the aperture trash is emptied the files can be viewed in the system trash. Becomes quite annoying if you want to review the aperture trash files before deletion.

Cookiemonster, previously Frank Caggiano's magic helped in this situation - have you tried the double, double Caggiano as described here?

In the most recent version I cannot get this trick to work, however. But try it anyway, maybe it is just my macthat has an issue.
Did this happen directly after the update? Where is your library located, on an external or an internal drive? Are your originals managed or referenced?
I'd try next to check, if this is caused by the library, by creating a small test library and trying to trash pictures there. If it works well in a new library try to repair the database and the permissions on your regular library. See:

How do i retrieve photos that have been deleted from my ipod touch if i have windows operating system?

how do i retrieve photos that have been deleted from my ipod touch if i have windows operating system?

Yest it will restore photos deleted from yur iOd probvide that the photos were taken before the the last synce/backyp was made. Make syre yu have automatic syncing turned off (Itunes>Preference>Devices>Check the box that says prevent auto syncing when connected). Otherwise when connected, a backup that reflects the deleted photos will be made and will replace the previous backup.

How do I delete photos in Iphoto library that have not been imported?

How did they get there and how do you know that they are there?
If they were not imported and iPhoto is not aware of them then you can be sure your current backup is up to date and tested, quit iPhoto and drag them to the finder trash - But be very careful because if you trash any items that iPhoto knows about you will corrupt your library
Before you empty the trash, launch iPhoto again and be sure everything is working correctly
It is recommended that you never modify the iPhoto library using anything except iPhoto or iPhoto aware programs like iPhoto Library Manager including adding, modifying or deleting items, files or folders within the iPhoto library
Your current case may be one of the very unusual exceptions to this - if they were put there without iPhoto's knowledge

How can i delete photos that have been synced from my computer to my i-pad?

I want to delete photos that have been copied from my computer to my i-pad,i can delete albums but not phots?

If photos were synced from your computer then they can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need to remove/de-select them from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

HT201077 Is it possible to retrieve photos that have been photostreamed thru icloud to my mac from my daughter in Europe who has deleted 1000 photos from her ipad that I didn't know I had to save ?

Is it possible to retrieve 1000 photos that have been photostreamed thru to my mac from my daughter in Europe but not saved on my mac. These same photos have been deleted from my daughters ipad in Europe ?

If the photos have been deleted from Photo Stream, then they are gone unless they have been saved elsewhere. Are they not in the Camera Roll of the iOS device they were taken on?
Photo Stream is not a permanent storage solution. It stores up to the last 1000 photos taken on an iOS device for a maximum of 30 days.
