My photos have disappeared from iPhoto

I worked with my photos in iPhoto, the night last and this morning. Was having some issues when you try to send or share one of my albums to iCloud. This morning, he left unexpectedly and when I opened it, it says it must rebuild. After more than an hour to tell him that he's rebuilding, he leaves again. When I restarted it, it had NO pictures in it at all. I had thousands of pictures. I had not had the chance to save all those I take it morning and evening. I can't understand how to get back them. Help.

P.s. in the finder, under 'photos' and 'iPhoto library' this folder is GB 135.6. But he also says "last open Thursday, October 29, 2015."  I use it almost every day.   I can't understand this.

I do regular backups on time machine, but have not backed up in two weeks. I don't know how to recover from that either.

Try the following:

1 - Launch iPhoto with the command and Option keys to open the window of first aid. Don't forget to follow the recommendation circle in the screenshot.

2 - Apply the Option #4, rebuild the database.

    My Photos have disappeared. How to recover?

    There are several options for data recovery if you remember the name of the file associated with the file in question and do not forget, if your Spotlight index does not work right, using any tools at the bottom of this tip can help you find these files:

    The Photos and iPhoto use XML files to manage their library.   Once you discover an XML library, usually you can use the command option key while you open iPhoto or Photos to redirect where is the Photo library file, so the application opens again the library from the file.

    Note, it is unlikely an older version of iPhoto or Photos will be able to open a library was updated to a newer version.

  • All my posts have disappeared from the Inbox.

    I realized there is a similar problem posted, but proposed solutions don't work here and the details here are different.

    All messages have disappeared from the Inbox. The sent box is fine, but deleted from the Inbox messages do not appear in the Recycle Bin.

    A search of the Inbox for messages of size > 0 allows me to see the messages and respond to them.
    If I move a message to another folder the moved message is invisible but believes it is search.

    Deleted messages are in the trash folder, but is not visible. A search in the trash finds them.

    Messages in the search boxes reuse (response, delete), but try to delete a selected message in the search box list has no effect.

    I found a solution. I can't take credit, but I tell you that I was almost embarrassed the simplicity of the solution and the problem.
    AT & T ConnectTech technician admitted that when I could left click and select the message in a tab, it was probable that nothing was clicked in the "select to display columns" in the top right of the CT. He clicks on a selection of articles and automatically that my messages appeared.

  • All messages have disappeared from Thunderbird Inbox.

    All of my emails have disappeared from Thunderbird Inbox. "Sent" and "Trash" messages are OK. I tried to delete the file "Inbox.msf", as some have suggested, then restarted TB, but the mailbox is still empty. My messages are apparently still in the "Inbox" file (under 'profile'), but all the gobblety-gook with loads of codes and numbers. I copy all of this mess, but don't have a clue how it back in my Inbox and make it readable. Can anyone help?

    I don't know why the size has changed... maybe I deleted something?

    I tried importing and had nothing but issues (details on my previous answer).

    I spent 3 days on this now and I'm tired. I guess I'll try using some email recovery program.

    Thanks for the help.

  • Some favorites have disappeared from my bookmarks bar (after the update?)

    Basically, the question says it all.

    All of a sudden a lot of my favorites have disappeared from my bookmarks bar. I can't find them anywhere.

    I used to have many of them, some in directories/folders, some 'free' - but never more than two branches down.

    If you open the dialog box (Ctrl + Shift + b) library and explore there, can you find in a strange place?

    If they're really gone, it is possible that the database file that stores the bookmarks and history is corrupted. COR - el has a few suggestions for it here: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/956965#answer-428511

    Alternatively, you can immediately make a backup copy of your folder bookmarkbackups. This folder can be placed using:

    Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

    I suggest you copy (not move, simply copy) the folder bookmarkbackups set to another location, such as your Documents or a USB flash drive. In this way time passes, you will always have older backups to restore if necessary.

    Hi desperateme

    Your recent photo (in the last 30 days) should be in the photo stream assuming that you use.

    Otherwise you can just clean up the phone (settings > General > reset > erase all & content settings) and restore the phone again to a more recent backup.
