When opened up iPhoto, it said it was rebuilding thumb caches
I thought a file was an old duplicate iPhoto library so I put it in the trash on my dock. Then when I went to open up iPhoto, it indicated that it was rebuilding thumb caches and then I couldn't view any of the pictures, although the library still indicated that there were 7000 pictures. So I dragged the file out of the trash in case that was the problem. But then I couldn't open up iPhoto anymore and it asked us to choose or create a new library. My husband clicked create a new library and of course, that's blank. But there's no other library to choose from even when I try. I seem to have two back up photo libraries, but they only seem to contain pictures from a long time ago. Where can I find the 7000 pictures that were in my latest library? I really hope it's not lost!
Would really appreciate any help!
Yes. Since iPhoto is now linked to the proper library you can delete those other library folders.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

I opened my iPhoto library today which was stored on an external hard drive and several of my videos now will not play at all. The weird thing is that each file shows a duration of 1 second and when I open them it just shows one frame. What the !&%$#@ Where did my original video files go?
Sounds like a good plan, you can never be to safe and having a second External HD is safer than one.
The only thing that I would do different, is setup the 3T as my TimeMachine Backup and then erase and move my Photos, Videos and perhaps even iTunes Media to the 1T. That way you will have room to backup both the Internal Hard Drive and the 1T External Hard Drive to the 3T using TimeMachine.
Take your time, study and use the > Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions if you get stuck or aren't sure how to make the move.

older (tiger) cd photo library shows no pics when opened in iPhoto 11 (Mt. Lion) how do i get to view those pics ?...thanx
That library was created by iPhoto via Share ➙ Burn menu, correct? It's old enough that you may have to drag that library to the desktop and open it with the Finder. Then drag the subfolders from the Originals folder into your open iPhoto 9 library window to import.

I was in a conversation with a colleague and a text (identical) came to both of our phones, when he researched it, it said it was blocked and I thought I might see where it came from through my phone. Is it possible to get a spam like that to our phones at the same time.If the text came to my number marked from him, it could only have been from him?. Is there a possibility that someone else sent it to both of us at the same time?
Yes, it could be spam. I get spam text from time to time. Yes, you both could have gotten the same spam at the same time. Spammers re sending out thousands and thousands of messages.

I followed the instructions on the Web site to uninstall Photo shop elements 12 in windows 8.1 and when I did as it said there was no box to tick for deactivation so I carried on.. Can I just go ahead and install on another computer ?
I don't know what instructions you may have followed, but as long as you "signed out" , then you will be fine.

In a hurry, I opened an email that said "order was shipped from "ammazon". I downloaded the order document and it ended up being a zip file. I then realized what it was, and did not actually open the file. This was on my Iphone 5. What should I do now!?
Delete the email. The zip file will have no effect on your iPhone.

When opening Iphoto (Iphoto 9 version 8.1.2) I went from hundreds of photos to 0. I looked in my harddrive and could not locate the pictures under library or photos. I tried rebuilding the system (ctl. alt. and opeing the program). I would assume all my pictures are lost except for when my screen saver runs, I still see all of my old photos. How can I retrieve my photos?
go in to finder than photos they should be somwhere in there. after you find them select add to iphoto

I downloaded Firefox. When I opened the file though, it said it was corrupted.
It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"

i just got my mac, and created a apple id, but when i tried to accept iphoto from the app store, it said: these app cannot be accepted by your apple id. it was already asigned to another id's purchases list. if you don't have accsess to that apple ID and want to receive future updates you will need to purchase.
but i shoulndt have to buy iphoto, should i? what should i do????Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple Id to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new ID. -
IPhoto 6 crashes when opening with iPhoto Library Manager with external sto
I've had stored many iPhoto libraries on my Freecom Mobile Drive 160gb, accessing them via iPhoto Library Manager, for years. Suddenly, when I try to open a library, iPhoto crashes. I'm still able to go into the storage disk so I don't think this is damaged. I've also reinstalled IPLManager (using original 3.2.3), without any luck.
I get this crash report (greatly abbreviated)
PID: 809
Thread: 0
Exception: EXCBADACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERNPROTECTIONFAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000000
Does this make sense to anyone? I can't understand why one minute everything is fine, and then the next a procedure which has worked for a long time, doesn't. BTW, I've taken off lots of junk from the Freecom external drive (have 44gb available) and 3gb available on my iBook.
Many thanks in advance for any help or advice.That
Exception Codes: KERNPROTECTIONFAILURE
is always a Data Related issue.
So use iPhoto Library Manager to rebuild the Library. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Preview When opening files not showing up in PS6!
Hi,
I've recently upgraded from Photoshop 5 to Photoshop 6. When opening files in PS5 a preview was available when selecting PSDs and image files.
This made it extremely easy to view files and PSD's without having to fully open them. But this feature is not showing up in PS6.
I'm not sure if this is actually an Adobe problem but I appreciate any and all help.
Here is an attached image to help understand - http://i.imgur.com/2v862OD.png

Thankyou, Seb.
P.S Apologies if this the wrong section.Good day!
Maybe one of the Adobe employees’ posts in this thread may help explain.

Iphone 4s new handset is damaged when opened from pack
The new iphone4s handset is damanged when opened from pack. The phone was ordered online. What is reson for the same, is it due to lack of quality check.
I suggest you take that up with the carrier that delivered the package. They are responsible for delivery and if it was damaged in delivery, they are responsible. If it doesn't seem the damage occurred because of shipping damage, then contact Apple, describe the problem and they will advise you what to do. Things happen, however, since we are users here just like you we cannot tell you how to handle the situation. I certainly can't tell you the reason it was damaged.
