Why has iPhoto deleted my latest events?

I recently upgraded my new current-model iMac to Mavericks and the latest iPhoto, then installed my existing iPhoto library, which was dutifully upgraded etc.
All seemed to be working well and I imported a large number of recent photos that were correctly indexed into new Events. However, now when I open iPhoto it won't show any Events since approximately 2010.
These photos are all visible when I click on Photos, and they are still correctly sorted into Events within the Photos view – so I know they are in the iPhoto database. However, they are not showing up as Events even though they did so when I previously imported them. iPhoto simply seems to have forgotten them, and forgotten other events added in the last three years for good measure.
Any tips on how I can fix this? Thanks!

Select one of the affected photos in Photos View and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show Event'
If the pics are in Photos view then they are also in Events view. Photos and Events are just two ways of looking at the same Library - different doors to exactly the same room. It can happen that Events are not where you expect them because the Sorting have changed (View Menu -> Sort Events) or the date on the camera is wring.

  • Ipad3, using iPhoto, running the latest IOS6, I'm a photographer, please tell me why has the delete (X) been removed in iPhoto?

    Ipad3, using iPhoto, running the latest IOS6, I'm a photographer, please tell me why has the delete (X) been removed in iPhoto?

    Ralph, again thanks for the input, but I respectfully disagree.  I have been using iPhoto with the iPad3 since it was launched.  I have taken and imported at a minimum 6-7k pictures and have used the same methodology of editing and deleting photos (inside of iPhoto app), using the delete (X) on the task bar.  I'm an IT project manager as well as an certified software consultant, in other words, I have a better than average knowledge and understanding of apps and the functionality.  My only point is that something that was quite functional and very user friendly has now become far more difficult. It was only 9 bucks and a pretty good little piece of software, I'll just find something else that is less time consuming and will check back for iPhoto update and from time to time.  Again, thank you for your feedback.

    That was the first thing I check, my X no longer exist, the app still works fine and does everything it did in the past, the the x (delete) option is no longer there.  I have deleted and redownloaded the app and did a complete reset, X still not there as an option.  Is anyone else experiencing this problem? 

  • Why does iphoto delete placeholder text?

    why does iphoto delete placeholder text when I try to send photo in email?

    When I downloaded photos from a camera SD card using an adapter, I noticed two Albums were created in the Photo app.(Last Import & All Import). Like you stated, there is no option to delete excess photos without deleting all of them. So this is the lengthy steps I went through to delet the extra album (I hope someone comes up with a shorter process):
    1) Connect iPad into your PC (Make sure you configured to Sync with iTunes)
    2) Go to My Computer > right click and open Apple iPad > right click and open  Internal Storage > right click and  open DCIM. (This will show the photos from those to Albums only)
    3) Right click on a empty space on the desktop
    4) Click on New > Folder
    5) Go back to the DCIM files and right click on each file(one at a time) then copy and paste each file over the New Folder.
    6) Go back to the DCIM files and open each folder and right click and delete each photo.
    You will notice that all the same photos are being deleted on the Photo app simultaneously.
    7) Then drag the New Folder into you Pictures on the PC.
    8)Then open iTunes on your PC and click on the Photo tab and click Sync on the bottom right to import those photos back to your iPad.
    I hope my scenario can apply to you.

  • Why does ical delete my past events when all settings indicate that it should not?

    All of the boxes, about deleting past events, in ical preferences are unchecked, so I can't figure out why ical deletes my past events.  Could it be because of a setting on either my iphone or ipad causing this to happen?

    I had the same problem a few weeks ago and called apple support.  The solution is as follows:
    Most apple users have multiple devices using icloud such as an iPdad, iPhone, and other computers.  In my case, I had two computers, two iPads, and one iPhone.   After speaking to apple support, I realized that one of my ipad's setting were set to delete events older then 2 weeks.   In short, if you are expeirienceing problems with ical deleteing events, you better check all your devices.  If just one of them is set wrong in your preferences, you will lose past events.   Even check computers you gave to your cildren or other members of the family.  You will probably find out that the settings on one of these machines is causing your problems.

  • Why cant I delete photos from event in Iphoto 08?

    Set to edit in external editor. After trying to open movie, return to event and cannot delete photos. Open and close program a couple of times, reset to edit in new window, re-open program and I can delete, but only by dragging to the trash located in Iphoto window (cannot drag to desktop trash, use delete key, use command-option-delete etc). Works on a couple of photos, then will not let me delete in any manner again.
    Any idea what's going on?
    Thanks

    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
    If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.

    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..

  • Why does iPhoto delete my photos I have deleted off my memory card?

    I have an 8 gb memory card for my camera. Sometimes I want to show pictures to people off my camera, so I don't delete all my photos off the memory card. I pick and choose. Recently, I was looking through iPhoto at old events and saw that the pictures that are no longer on my memory card were also no longer in iPhoto. This is extremely frusterating because I lost hundreds of pictures!! Does anyone know how to stop this from happening?

    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

  • Why has iPhoto tripled my photo quantity?

    one day I went to check out my photos and now there is 3 times each photo?
    I cannot understand why or how this has happened?
    Can anyone explain? And how do I get rid of the duplicates?

    For anything other than a wild guess you need to provide more information
    With no information except the number of photos tripling the best wild guess is that you imported an iPhoto library into another iPhoto library. NEVER do this

  • Why has iphoto stopped importing from iphone

    Up til now iPhoto has always opened automatically when I connect my iPhone to my computer and started importing photos. In the last week it has stopped.  I have looked at iPhoto preferences and iTunes preferences but can't find how to change settings.  Can anyone help?  Thanks

    IMPORTANT READ THIS: disregard everything else i said about photostream because that is not your problem.
    ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SIMPLY SIGNOUT OF MAC ACCOUNT AND SING BACK IN AND PLUG YOUR IPHONE AGAIN
    once you have done this iphoto will pop up to import photos. the problem was that you probably quit out of iphoto when it was triying to import iphone photos once. If you do this, as long as your sighned in to your mac account, iphoto wont pop up, no matter how many times you plug your iphone nto the mac.

  • Why did iphoto delete all of my albums without me clicking anything?

    I was looking to upload a photo online, just browsing through photos, all photos were there, but I decided I wanted to edit it first. I click out. I go open iPhoto, it says it needs to be updated, I decline, it closes automatically. I open it agian, this time allow it to update, then all of my photos are gone. It says the last update was April 2011, when I know I have uploaded probably 50 different albums since then. I restart hoping this fixes things. It doesn't. I restart again, no dice.
    What happened? How could it have deleted all my photos? They aren't anywhere - I searched all images and pictures folders. I searched the iphoto library. What can I do?
    I'm particularly upset because it deleted my engagement photos and engagement party photos. Not to mention all of my holiday photos from this year.

    Assuming you're running iPhoto 9 or later do the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.
