I accidentally put all my photos on my Desktop HELP!

Hi, while trying to export my iPhoto on an external hard drive I accidentally put my 5,000 + pictures and videos on my desk and it is now slow to a crawl, couldn't do much. The spinning wheel is almost constantly, even in safe mode. I was doing this to update safely the last OSX. At this time the iMac running 10.8.6. Help me please!

  • Photobook: How can you look at layouts different photobook BEFORE you put all your photos? I want to see inside pages of styles before choosing one to put my pictures in.

    You cannot prevent, the pages will be automatically informed initially.

  • I accidentally lost all my photos

    Can you please help I accidentally deleted all my photos. I have backups on an external hard drive, the Catalogue is available in a folder named "AA-LightRoom-catalog-BackUp" and images (raw files) are in a folder named "Lightroom-Gen-cat-BackUp and photos or in a subdirectory named my pictures."

    I don't know how to go about recovery, can you please help.

    B.Gravestock.

    I don't know if this is related. But a couple of weeks, I open Lightroom and all files were missing. I had noticed, but when I would right-click on an image is displayed in the file Explorer everything was empty. Even when I open just the file Explorer if there are no files, just folders. After suffering a heart attack near, I decided to restart my computer. Everything has been resolved, the images were back, business as usual. I don't know if this is related to a flaw in Lightroom or if it had to do with the SSD I had just install.

  • How can I put all my photos in one file? right now they are everywhere

    My photos and my photos are so divided in many different files. I would like to be able to put them in one place, so I can access without having to search everywhere

    Hi Michelle,

    You can arrange to switch all your images to the 'My pictures' folder located in "My Documents", you will need to manually place images, select them and move it to the folder my pictures...

  • How can I put all my photos together in the Gallery of photos after restoring an accident?

    A year ago, I was infected by the Trojan Aleuron and had to completely restore my computer.  Fortunately I was able to restore my backup, but now, after a year of trying to find the photo in my GALLERY of PHOTOS in the files and the 'restored' files, I wonder if you can help me put them altogether in one place, so when I want to 'Browse' to upload a picture on a website, I don't have to search in files on my computer!

    Thanks for any help I receive.

    Hi delraybuzz

    You must manually move all the files in one folder to a location on the hard drive. You can use the photo folder to store all of the picture files and check.

  • Help! I accidentally deleted all my photos on my computer!

    I'm new to Lightroom CC.

    For some reason any he imported every image on my Mac 15 ' retina (2014) in its catalogue. Thinking that "remove disc" meant simply to get rid of the images of the program - now thousands of files are sitting in the trash! How their return to their respective folders. Help, please! This is a nightmare!

    Unfortunately, when you use the 'remove from disk' in Lightroom on Mac trash does not give you an option put back.  The option put back works if you use the Finder to delete files.  I think that the only option now is to hand.  On the plus side, at least, they are still in the trash and don't go or a possible disorder using an undelete program.

  • How can I select all the photos to download icloud on a Mac?

    I do the thing IT Manager family.

    My daughter moved into a House with the lousy broadband (0.5Mbit / s!).  She had already signed for storage iCloud and used pictures of iCloud for several years with his iPhone & iPad.  She has now a large number of photos & videos (ex iPhone & iPad) in iCloud, but also a large number of old photos in her photo album on his MBP (which she didn't register to iCloud Photos with).  I would get all of his photos on iCloud and in Photos in his MBP, and she can stop trying to use the thing iCloud until she gets a better broadband connection (and just sync with USB, in the traditional way!).

    I use iCloud Photos myself and find it very confusing - iCloud Photos, photo, pictures of iCloud sharing stream...

    However, I don't see an easy way of simply by downloading everything.  If I access iCloud Photos via Safari, I can download photos, but there seems to be no option "Select all", then by selecting several hundred photos will be tedious say the least.

    If I sign his MBP Photos up to iCloud, it goes, I guess, download all her photos to iCloud, ok, BUT, it will automatically download all her old photos on iCloud and probably exceed its storage limit, but also take a long time (45 GB - if I have fiber at home, so perhaps tolerable).

    I did a little research and can find no easy answers.  One possibility is to create an empty photo library on the MBP, sign up to iCloud, wait for synchronization, the export of all photos in a folder, re-import the old library of Photos and then delete again.  Seems possible, but tedious.

    All the best ideas?

    FWIIW, my daughter MBP is a mid-2009 13 ", just updated (by the family IT Manager!) to el Capitan. a little slow and only 250 and only 70 GB available.

    Go to a place where the internet is faster. Turn on iCloud photos on Mac.

    This will put all the photos in the cloud and on Mac.

    Once done, turn off iCloud photo library.

  • Hello. I have windows 7 home... I had accidentally put in the trash... and deleting photos

    Hello.

    I have windows 7 home... I had accidentally put in the trash... photos and then cleaned out the trash... lost all the pictures... did a system restore and got back records, but not photos... ANY IDEAS on HOW I CAN get BACK MY PHOTOS > please... !!!

    It was a possibly a big mistake to do the system restore. There jepoardised your chances of recovering anything because it may well have used disk space previously allocated to your photos.

    Some people on this forum have reported success with Recuva

    Do not recover files to the same drive that you are trying to recover files from. This is likely to have the same consequences as restoring your system. In fact, it is preferable to stop using the hard drive which has (hopefully) the files lost and place it in another PC before run Recuva on the other PC. Install Recuva on your hard drive can also cause files become unrecoverable.

    Good luck, I think that you will need. If something like Recuva recover everything you want, the only recourse is a (very expensive) data recovery lab.
