I can't see why this has happened and how I can get the photos back. Any suggestions 2014-04-03T23:05:57+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1041#4590 Derek Wright info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ I have seen the same thing in Aperture after I have sent the image to Photoshop for some editing and returning it o Aperture as a PSD file - it comes up as Format not recognised. Recently discovered if I duplicate the black image via the right click context menu I get anther copy of the image created and shown. This may work with iPhoto - give it a try and let us know. 2014-04-04T13:14:40+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1041#4592 Douglas Cheney info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Thank you Derek for your tip, but it didn't provide anything at all. I am going to have to look through all the photos I have printed for the wife and children to find the originals and scan them I think 2014-04-04T13:40:40+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1041#4593 Trevor Hewson info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Have you tried using spotlight to find the missing files? It could be that they are still there but iPhoto has lost track of them. Failing that, can Time Machine help? 2014-04-04T13:40:45+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1041#4594 Mick Burrell info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Doug, you could try launching iPhoto while holding down both the Command and Option (alt) keys. This will take you to the iPhoto first aid window. One option here is to rebuild thumbnails. 2014-04-04T14:57:55+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1041#4595 Douglas Cheney info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ I have found two folders in iPhoto one has all blank squares the other has thumbnails with this underneath AlbumArt_{E6B09CF3-498B-5B83-7F4F-2B7C4EA9D7AC}_Small, and the are all small pictures. Can these be recovered. 2014-04-04T15:25:17+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1041#4596 Douglas Cheney info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ I have tried all the options on rebuilding and repairing with no luck.
