More (but not all) of my iphoto library is missing after upgrade to the Cape of El

Well, I have an older (21.5 "iMac late 2009) and increasing problems with Chrome and Firefox to complain that my system was outdated, I finally put to El Cap.

Then I tried to open iPhoto. Now I've been through the process at least a dozen times, so I don't know what went down the first time, except that he insisted that iphoto was also obsolete and I needed to update.  So I did. But here's the scoop. Since the "[grade up", my library of over 30 k photos shows only 2978 photos. No newer than 2004 data is invisible (in iPhoto).

The original files are still there, inside the packaging of the library.

I tried to repair the database. No luck. Always 2978 pictures visible.

I tried to rebuild the database. No luck. Always 2978 pictures visible.

I tried to launch the disk utility and repaired until the cows back. Always 2978 f & ^ ing pictures.

I tried to install the Photos and migration. 2978 fixed views.

I tried to grab a copy of my iPhoto library before upgrading any using Time Machine. Well, at least I have 2978 photos more. Now if I choose the library recovered, iPhoto tells me 'to open your library with this version of iPhoto, it must first be prepared. To prepare for the library, use the Library upgrade available from Apple iPhoto. »

So I downloaded the valorization of the library. When I run it on the library, it says "cannot open your current library using this version of iPhoto. You have made changes to your photo library by using a newer version of iPhoto. Exit and use the latest version of iPhoto. "Are you f & * ^ ing kidding me?

So I'm stuck in the endless loop of * and seriously questioned why I have so many Apple devices. Yes, Apple, I have been a loyal customer for decades, but this situation is completely unacceptable. Simply create the * valuation in the latest version of iPhoto, or pictures or whatever you're calling this year. It is not as if someone notices a supplement a few MB in the bloatware. At least this way, you can check that the valuation and iphoto agree if a library needs to be upgraded.

(deep breath) OK, here are my questions for the community.

(1) how can I tell what version of iPhoto created my library? It is not visible in news, and the version of iPhoto that I finally used was wiped out in the process of the stupid El Cap 'upgrade '. If I can't understand this point, it seems more and more like I'm going to need to blow all the metadata for 30 000 images and re - import the originals in Photos.

(2) any suggestions on decent library management software not Apple photo? As long as I have to do it again, I'm not really interested in staying a customer of Apple.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Chris

The original files are still there, inside the packaging of the library.

Are you sure, iPhoto opens this particular library?

You can see the iPhoto library uses, if you ctrl - click on the title "iPhoto" in the title bar of the iPhoto window.

By default, iphoto opens the library in your pictures folder, if it cannot open your main library.

Where your iPhoto than stored library? It is in the pictures folder?

To open a particular library in iPhoto, double-click it. And then check if iPhoto has really opened this library.

Pictures also won't open the library in your pictures folder, if it cannot open your main library.

  • Some, but not all, programs in CS6 Master Collection is more open, inviting the Adobe Application Manager

    Here's my problem. I bought the CS 6 Master Collection when it came out. Everything was fine until recent months when some, but not all, programs won't open. When I run CS 6 Illustrator, Creative Cloud Adobe Application Manager opens. To renew your subscription? When I Subscription Manager, I said I have a free subscription to creative cloud. Agents chat Adobe told me that my creative cloud subscription is good.

    What is strange, but I thank you, is that other programs, such as Photoshop CS6 and Dreamweaver CS6, open very well, without the detour over the impasse of Adobe Application Manager.

    Through four chat sessions, I have been ordered to take various measures, which none have worked. The fuller was an uninstall of all Master CS6 Collection, run a cleaning of Adobe tool, then a reinstallation is complete. It took a while, but left me at the same place: Adobe Application Manager opens for 6, Illustrator CS, but CS 6 Dreamweaver and Photoshop 6 CS open very well.

    After several tries, I somewhat lost a little confidence in agents chat for Adobe. Does anyone have a solution for this?

  • Playlists imported, but not all the songs won't matter

    I exported my playlists my macpro mnt lion and when I used my thumbdrive to import on my macbook pro (mavericks) some, but not all the songs from the imported selections. It just says: the files can be found--just before this that I imported the entire library, so I know that my whole library is on the macbook pro.

    Some files are mpegs and some are AAFC, but there is no correlation with what files are transferred correctly as its both.

    MacPro (mnt lion)--> macbook pro (mavericks)

    You must transfer your complete (in one piece) iTunes folder, which should include all your media files and your iTunes library database (where are stored the data supporting such as playlists, ratings, play count, date added, etc.).  Then iTunes on the new Mac looks like iTunes on the old Mac, with all your songs and playlists, because you use the SAME library. you do not add your media files to a new library.

    If you want more information on how to do it, instead of your playlist Exim problem troubleshooting, please post back.

  • Firefox manages not to display images much (but not all) on the Web sites that I visit, certain images are displayed and some are not even if they are in the same format.

    I recently changed my ISP because I had connectivity problems. Especially my router would be closed sporadically. As part of my attempt to identify issues, I ran some spyware that I was told that I could trust. Since then, I have a problem looking at many websites as much (but not all) images are missing, even on websites that I know very well, including my own. What is odd, is that on one site each page has an image jpg under the navigation bar and all these jpg appear except for one who does not even appear when I reload images. This problem also makes security of sensitive sites as my amateur full site look Bank that scares me. The problem does not occur on other web browsers.

    What spyware software do you run?

    Make sure that allow you pages to choose their colors and you have not enabled high contrast in the Windows accessibility settings.

    • Check the permissions for the domain in the active tab in "tools > Page Info > Permissions.
    • Check that the images are enabled: Tools > Options > content: [X] loading images automatically
    • Check exceptions in "tools > Options > content: Load Images > Exceptions.
    • See the tab "tools > Page Info > media ' for blocked images (scroll all the images with the cursor key).

    If an image in the list is grayed out and there is a check mark in the box "block Images of..." and remove this mark to unlock the images from this area.

    There are also extensions (Tools > Modules > Extensions) and security software (firewall, antivirus) that can block images.

Just a click with the right button on the X and select Remove then import your photo again under the new name or location and click on save project on the file menu.

  • SRM failover for virtual machines but not all VMDK disks to include

    Hi, I have a number of VMs that need failover protection, but not all the VMDK disks must be included when switching to the opposite site. For example, a virtual machine can have 3 discs and players only need 1 & 2, switch to the recovery site - SRM can be configured to ignore the 3rd disc?

    Thank you

    I was not aware of a fact that replied vmdk cannot be detached. I think that this is normal.

    Why you are replicating data, you do not need? You can place these VMDK on LUN not replicated?

  • Installation of blackBerry Smartphones cannot continue, because not all OS requirements have been met. Please upgrade to 10.6.0 or later.

    Hello

    Recently, I injured my 9700's screen "BOLD" from blackberry to the point where it was cheaper to buy a new one, so I did and that you bought a new blackberry curve 9320. Now I need to sync my old bb "BOLD" for my mac so I can get all my old in my new bb curve information, because without it I have no information because it is stored on my bb bold and I never the saved... but I still get this error message:

    Setup cannot continue, because not all OS requirements have been met. Please upgrade to 10.6.0 or later.

    I don't know where to find this version that I downloaed later on the blackberry site. If not, how can I get my information off my old bb "BOLD" on my mac, then in my new curve bb...

    If someone wonderful can come to my rescue?

    Thanking you in advance

    Yes, OK, now I see your problem... I didn't know that your screen has been damaged at this point.

    You get this message because the current version of the "BB Desktop Manager" software claims a newer MAC OS on your machine!

    Can't upgrade you your Mac OS to the newest? Generally, these improvements are very good markets in the Mac world.

    That would allow you to install the software and then (hopefully) make a backup of your machine (blindly?) and therefore to restore the data on your new device!

    So my advice would be to upgrade your Mac operating system. The other reason to do it, is that previous versions of the software BBDM are very difficult (does not say impossible) to find on the internet.

    Good luck and we keep abreast

  • Want to download 10 W but not able to do that, during installation, a problem arises and the previous operating system is restored.

    My laptop is preinstalled with Windows 7 Home Basic.  At the free launch Windows 10 I downloaded the same and after 2 months, the hard drive crashed.  The repair shop trying to fix formatting, but could not revive.  This is why I bought a new hard drive and repair charge shot Windows 7 Ultimate edition.

    Now, I want to download 10 W but not able to do that, during installation, a problem arises and the previous operating system has been restored.  When I posted the question about how to solve this problem, I was told to try the download by way of USB/ISO file.

    Now my question is that

    one) can I reload Windows 7 Home basic as I have the product key?

    (b) I can then download Windows 10 according to the normal procedure?

    I'm not tech savvy, afraid to download files in USB and then load into the laptop, so this question.

    Concerning

    S Subramanian

    Original title: Windows 7 Home basic

    You can directly download Windows 10. Windows 7 complete edition currently installed is not genuine.

    When you upgraded from a previous version of Windows, what happened is that (your PC) hardware will get a digital right, a unique signature of the computer which is stored on the Microsoft Activation servers. The real Windows 7 or Windows 8 license you were using previously will be exchanged with a key to the diagnosis.

    Whenever you need to reinstall Windows 10 on this machine, go just to reinstall Windows 10. It automatically reactivates.

    Therefore, there is no need to know or get a product key, if you must reinstall Windows 10, you can use your Windows 7 or Windows 8 product key or use the reset function in Windows 10.
