When I import photos they show up in the photo tab but not in events. Not sure what's going on.

Today I tried to import photos from my camera into iPhoto 11. No problems up until today. I imported the photos as usual, but they did not show up in the events section. I went to the Photo section and they appeared there. I could even name the event there, but it still wasn't visible in Events. The only way to get it to show up was to merge the events in the Photo section into an event that was appearing and then split the event. Very strange. I imported from my iPhone 5 with no problems. Photos appeared in both Events and Photos. Anyone else have this happen? Solutions? I called support and they did not have any suggestions other than to try to restart computer. That didn't solve it.

You are probably looking in the wrong place - all photos in Photo view and in event too unless you have a corrupted library
most common cause of your not finding them is bad sort - view menu ==> sort events
Nest most common cause is a bad data/time on the camera - this can be corrected using a smart album to find the photos from that camera and then using using the adjust time/date command to fix the bad ones
YOu can alwasy find the event a Photo is in by selecting it and selecting show event

IMovie seems to have developed a glitch. When i try to import photos they show in the timeline but not in the movie.

I just upgraded my old versionj 3 of photoshop elements to v13 when I import photos they are not imported in the same order they are mixeds up

hi can I have a reply to above question: I just upgraded my old versionj 3 of photoshop elements to v13 when I import photos they are not imported in the same order they are mixeds up

In the documents screen - sorry, new to this so not sure if that's the right terminology... Basically the screen showing all documents, if you drag down, there should be two options at the of of the page: Date and Name. Select Name and your list should now be in alphabetic order.
Hope that helps.

I think i hit some important key accidentally. something changed. now when i receive photos, they only appear in the message and i have no thumbnails nor a way to download. those same e-mails with photos do fine on the iPad/iPhone, so it is my computer.

When I import photos they are changing color, what to do to come back to regular download?

Lightroom worked good, I tuned it off and I turn on again and all my photos after import are in different color like black with white and gree, all the same tone. What to do to come back to previous? what have I done?

I use Smart Converter which is free on the App Store. It is easy to use , just drag and drop the files to convert to Quicktime , takes no time and great results.

When I download photos they show in a viewing box but opening it there are no photos. Also, PhotoStream is inoperative.

iPhoto is a mess since 11/3/12 for me. What is going on? Thanks.

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
are the thumbnails displaying OK?
what do you see when you double click on a thumbnail?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

When I launch Finder for the first time the same folders are always open

Hi. When I first boot up and launch Finder the same folders are always open on my boot drive. I close them all and continue to work on the computer, opening and closing folders as needed for that day's projects until I quit for the day. But the next time I start up (normally the next day) the same exact folders are open on my boot drive when I first open Finder or if I just double-click the drive. I've tried switching accounts and then back again and trashing Finder preferences, making sure every single folder is closed before I shut down, but the folders continue to show up as open the next time I boot up my Mac Pro. Any ideas anyone?

Thanks for your suggestion. In the meantime I contacted support at www.bombich.com (creator of Carbon Copy Cloner) and told them what I was thinking about doing and they suggested deleting the hidden .DS_Store files in the folders remaining open. This is the explanation they gave me:
This file, created by the Finder, keeps track of folder view options, icon positions, and other visual information about folders. A separate .DS_Store file is created in each directory about that directory.
So I went online and found the Terminal commands for showing (and hiding) hidden files and trashed, one by one, all the .DS_Store files in the folders that were remaining open and that did the trick. I've tested Finder several times on relaunch and reboot and it's working perfectly again. Folders remain closed as I've left them before shutting down. Big relief. And I've learned something about .DS_Store files.
Thanks to you and Eric Root for your replies and suggestions. They are appreciated.

When I load an Album it often lists the individual songs as Albums. Any help please?!

When I load an album eg David Guetta the individual songs are displayed as individual albums both in itunes and consequently on my iphone...any suggestions to rectify gratefully appreciated

Thank you Niel! I will have a happy son in the morning.

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.

When I import photos taken from my Ipod Touch 4 to My Mac Desktop, I click delete photos on ipod, but they do not delete. Is the only way to delete them individually (I have 1,400 photos!) or is there a way to delete them all in one go?

I realise you can you can delete them on your ipod slowly as you have to click on each one, and you can restore your ipod, but surely there is a way to get around this?

Thanks If anyone can help me.

Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

Imported Photos not showing up in Library of I-Photo

I am converting old slides on a Wolverine SNaP converter. The digital images show up in the "Last Import" window after importing them, and I can drag them into a folder I create, but when I go to the Library they aren't there. Does anybody have a similar experience? How can I get them to show up in the Library?

Thank you. I did find it. I am not familiar with the way things get organized in iphoto. I expected new photos to show up at the bottom of the library as they usually do. I still haven't found them when looking in the library itself but I did find them when looking at the events.

Imported Photos only show up as Rejected

Hey All,
Did some searching but couldn't find anything that described my problem. I recently imported photos from 3 memory cards into three separate new projects. All of the imports worked fine (was importing directly from camera) and I left Aperture to create the previews/thumbnails etc. I came back to everything completed and shut down the program.
The next day I notice the start up screen doesn't tell me I have any pictures that haven't been updated in a vault (odd because I hadn't updated with the newly added pictures). I find all the images in all three projects are not there. I go into the external drive that houses my Aperture library, 'Open Contents' etc and get to the new projects, all the photos are there physically on the drive, inside of my Aperture managed library but do not show up in Aperture at all. Nothing in my 'Added in last week' folder, nothing in Rejected folder, nothing in All Photos, and nothing in the individual projects. On a whim I decide to search rejected photos in each project. Low and behold there they are. Okay, I re-tag every photo with 1 star, they show up now in unrated or better, but this goes away when I re-boot Aperture. Now I have a bunch of photos rated at one star but only show up when I search 'rejected' in the individual projects and don't show up in any of other folders I mentiond or any other search.
I tried:
-updating Aperture
-copy/pasting the projects out of aperture library and importing whole projects.
-moving pictures to different projects
-re creating previews
Nothing has worked, anyone heard of this before?

Just to clarify,
1) is the problem limited to the same exact photos, no matter where they go in the Library?
2) Did you try making fresh new versions from the same masters, and deleting the old probelatic versions, to see if new versions had the same problem?
3) were all photos from the same import session affected, or, all imports from the same day?
4) Have you had any further problem with newer imports (test shoot & import)?
If "YES" to #1, there has to be a common link between these individual photos. It's highly unlikely that the master files are at fault, because rejects/ratings seem to be Aperture-specific metadata tags and therefore assigned only to the versions, not masters. See if generating new versions from the master file might fix the problem, but DO NOT lift-stamp any metadata from old problematic versions onto new ones.
Hope this helps narrow things down.
best,
Jin

Newly imported photos only show up in "photos" and not "events"

When I import photos, why do they now only show up in the "photos" section of my library, and not "events"? I see them in photo stream, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the left-hand column in iPhoto, the sections under "Library." I saw on the answer to someone else's question that photos can only be in one place at a time, either "events" or photo stream, but then why are they also showing up in "photos"? And I use the "events" thing more than I do photo stream, so I'd like to be able to just automatically have all my events there--OR see photo stream organized by events as well. Does anyone have any suggestions?

If they are in the Photos listing then they are also in Events somewhere. These are two view of exactly the same material - two windows into the same room, as it were.
Right-click one of the photos and select 'Show Event' from the resulting menu.
