Hi,
Is this the group for iPhoto?
I've been using iPhoto successfully since I got my mac, 2 years ago.
I may not be using many of the features available. I download digital
pictures, and I take pictures of web pictures with the key code ctrl/click
>
Download to iPhoto.
Today I took a picture and got a couple of windows. I can't recreate them
now, but they said something like "Can't find iPhoto Library"
When I open the iPhoto application, none of some one hundred pictures show
up.
I recall starting a full backup to external HD, and learning the ex****t
part of iPhoto. I did it. Then I had to stop the back up because I had
to
do something that the backup interferred with. In an ex****t, don't the
original pictures stay in the application?
I have some things in my Pictures folders. There are a few scatterred
pictures from my collection, but not the whole thing.
Where does "Ex****t"ex****t to?
I see now that many of my photos are scattered in my Pictures folders
along
with my .pngs.
There are also lots of files that look like this <DSCF0001.jpg> but they
don't open. A window pops up that says
"Couldn't open the file. It may be corrupt or a file format that preview
doesn't recognize."
Of course, Iphoto doesn't open in Preview, does it?
I have a feeling I messed something up when I "ex****ted".
Any way I can recreate my collection?
I know I've never gotten past just downloading the pictures and having all
of them remain on one iPhoto screen. I've never gotten into rolls or
libraries etc.
Thanks,
Rafael
