I have then all my family photos (about 300 GB) on an external drive about 2 years ago. Today I tried to open my iphoto on the external hard drive and I got an error message that says "iphoto cannot be opened white it is updated. As far as I know, its not actually updated anything. I could use help open iphoto or at least get all in his library please. Any ideas?

  • Photos will not open the iPhoto on an external drive, already "migrated" library

    I moved my iPhoto to an external drive library, updated, then "migrated" photo library with the drive connected. Once I opened the Photos without the drive connected, and there is a library 'Photos' of 9 seemingly random photos. Now, the pictures will not open the old library with the drive connected. Is there a way to change the pictures in the library accesses?

    Here's the disclaimer that I get: the contents of the iPhoto 'iPhoto Library' library has already migrated to the Photos.  Open the Photos to display your library or use a compatible version of iPhoto to open the iPhoto library.

    (But it does not open the library on the external hard drive).

    Search and select the library located on the EHD and click Choose library.  The location of the selected library will appear just below the window.

  • IPhoto migration from an external drive: stuck with hard links to the external hard drive

    I got my IPhoto library on an external drive. To migrate to pictures, I dragged the IPhoto (on the external hard disk) file to the Photos icon.

    Migration went well, but instead of importing data to the external hard drive to my macbook, Photos stored links on the external drive. Now whenever I start the Photos, the system tells me it takes the external drive to view the contents of the library.

    To resolve this problem, I tried to copy my IPhoto library on my macbook and redo the import. It does not work: Photos, said the library has been upsized already (I noticed that the IPhoto library has been renamed 'iPhoto Library.migratedphotolibrary')

    Is it possible to reverse the migration or mark the IPhoto library as not yet migrated? Any other suggestions?

    Thanks for your help!

    Rename the copy of the iPhoto library on your internal drive to 'iPhoto Library.photolibrary '.  Then drag the library renamed on the Photos icon and pictures will create a new photo library on your internal drive.

  • Copy of iPhoto/iTunes to external drive for upgrade

    I would like to transfer my iPhoto (5.0.4) and files iTunes (9.2.1) of my old iMac G5 (running 10.4.11) to my new iMac (El Capitan running).

    My iTunes library is now on an external drive (and iTunes is headed there), and I would like to copy my iPhoto on the same drive - to move together on the new iMac while maintaining the structures of files etc.

    Can someone tell me what is the best way to do this? I'm not clear what iPhoto files files, I need to move or copy on the external hard drive to retain the current structure of the organization/etc folder or the process then bring them into the right place on the new machine.

    Simply drag and drop them where you want libraries to reside. As iPhoto is plu included you will use the Photos app. You can learn how to move the library iPhotos to Photos for Mac on http://osxdaily.com/2015/04/17/move-iphoto-library-to-photos-mac/.

    Insofar as your iTunes library, yet once just drag and drop. 'Teach' iTunes where the library is simply double-click the library and iTunes will find it and then "know" where the library.

  • I copied the folder iPhoto to my 'images' on an external drive and all photos disappeared both external drive and the iPhoto library. Do you know where they are?

    Hello! I have a big problem!

    I copied the folder "Images" that is default in my Mac on an external drive.

    Inside the 'Images' folder, there is the iPhoto folder.

    When I reopened iPhoto, all photos disappeared from the iPhoto library and the external drive. I left alone with very little, very old photos.

    Do you know where my pictures maybe? Photos in iPhoto has also lost all the flags...

    Thank you in advance for the answer...

    What software (name and version) are you using? What format is the EHD? How is it connected? What exactly did you do step by step

    Bottom line is that correctly copy a package does not remove anything so you did something wrong and we need to know exactly what you have and what you have done to help

  • Difficulty finding a WD external hard drive after update to 10.11.4

    Hello
    last week I updated my OS to El Capitan 10.11.4.
    After that, I have problems, make a backup on my external drive (Wester Digital MY Passport Ultra).
    After reset total of my iMac, the backup runs once, but the hourly automated backup stops.
    A manual start is not successful.

    The external hard drive is visible in the finder, but clicking the map Backups.backupdb, nothing happens. After a reboot all backups are still visible.
    It seems that the external hard drive is dismantled after the initial backup.

    Time Machine is running, HD connected properly.
    Latest version of the WD software is installed.

    Does anyone know the solution for this problem.

  • How to view the old libraries of iPhoto on an external drive without importing it?

    In iPhoto, I used to keep all my libraries of photos on an external drive to save space (a different library for each year).  I would just choose which library I wanted access at the launch of iPhoto and it would launch from the external hard drive.  In the new photo app, I can't understand how to display these old libraries without actually importing them I won't do for space-saving reasons.  Anyone know how I can do to check/change photos from an external hard drive via the Photos app?  Thank you very much!

    Pictures of launch with down option, click library and choose them.

  • Mac App Store is writing updates on an external drive!

    Hi people,

    I recently added an external USB3 drive of my Mac Mini, which is in place and it works very well. It is journaled HFS +, property is 'ignored' and it is mounted in /Volumes as you would expect. (I also have to stress is the fourth disc I added in this way.) My main drive is unchanged, still mounted on / and is always presented as my boot drive in system preferences. It was also around 450 GB of free space.

    However, when I update an application such as Pages or via the Mac App Store numbers, it creates a folder in the "new" external drive and place the .app file here. Also, it creates a directory/library and places receipts in there, too. Applications updates do not appear in the Dock or dashboard.

    The behavior is completely recreatable and persists reboots of the system.

    I can't find an obvious preference setting to control the target disk. is it possible that I can configure or reset the Mac App Store to use my main drive?

    Thank you very much in advance for any help or advice.

  • the iPhoto on external hard drive library hangs in the print mode

    I use iPhoto 9.6.1 on OS X Yosemite (10.10.2). I have a photo library on an external drive. I tried to print a photo several times, but it failed to print. Since yesterday I'm hanging in print for this particular library only mode. I don't have this problem with all other IPhoto libraries. Before my attempt to print the photo, there was a message noting that the external drive was not properly ejected.  I do not eject the disc. However, it can come off as I move the laptop. I left the program without needing to force to leave. I can't reopen this specific iPhoto library without result. The library needs to be repaired or rebuilt? I won't touch the iPhoto on laptop computer library. How can I only repair / rebuild iPhoto library? I need to access this library to complete my printing projects.

    Save the library in question then press the command and option keys and double-click on it to launch Photos - keep the keys pressed until it appears the first air window - repair permissions and then rebuild the database

  • No external drive no free space, or if it is said

    Hi all

    I have a Sansa 8 GB fuse with an extra 8 GB external

    On the external hard drive, I have 1 already loaded audio book.  I tried to add my latest acquisition.

    When I go in the "info" screen under settings, I am told that there is some 7572 MB of remaining memory,

    Yet when I try to add to this external hard drive, even the smallest file (as a test) I tells me memory is full.

    I probably need to reformat the external hard drive, but I'm not sure if that's what I have to do, or even

    How to do it without creating problems if I jump in without notice and that you're wrong.

    What's happening in the files, how I recreate, etc..  Is there firmware for then reload?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated... I am a real novice at this!

    Thank you...

    Hello again, I have some successes to report, and for those who have the same problem, here is what happened:

    You are in Mode MSC (under Settings/Control Panel)? He should just drag - move. The update of the firmware goes to default auto-detection or DPW.

    I have in the past used the PSG to drag / move.   In this mode, I removed the book audio which was on the external hard drive, if it was 'empty', no file showing, yet 'Properties' showed a PCI full height.

    You can also run on that error checking (right-click on the card in the computer or workstation, properties / tools/error checking) to see if a bad file hurts.

    In MSC Mode, did not recognize the external card.   Thus, while there, I made a Volume control on internally and found no errors.   The volume showed 3.3 GB used; 4.23 GB of free, so both sets of memory were not recognized in MSC Mode, only the inside.

    If you do not need to format the micro SD card, do it through the windows. (In mode MSC, detonators, find the drive, right click, Format.) There is no firmware to reload the card.

    I did a format of external drive while I was in MTP mode, it was not recognized as a MSC.

    I apparently managed, after refreshing, MSC, audio books and Podcasts files reappeared.

    So no worries on this concern.

    The internal memory of own Fuze can be formatted under Settings/Control Panel, without disturbing the firmware of the rocket.

    I'll keep this tip for another time, I seem to be upward and work and I thank you for your advice.

    I don't know how this mark as resolved, but it is, hooray... and thank you!
