1bassoon Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 OK, I just need to spout for a minute. . . . . . . . I went to open iphoto today - (we have a mac) - and - MY PHOTOS WERE GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :ack2::ack2::ack2::scared::scared::cursing::cursing::cursing: That feels only a little better. I have NO IDEA where my iphoto library went to. And I'm talking about 4 years of pictures. . . . No. I did not back most of them up. And - the best person to help is my Dad, who's a Mac guru - and he's been after me for a long, long time to put my photos on CD. SO I really don't want to call him and listen to a lecture that will go like this. "I don't know where your photos are. Why didn't you back them up?" I'm done now. Somebody tell me my 3yo won't rob a bank because her mom has almost no pictures of her. I think I'll go have a good cry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I'm sorry that your photos are gone. And no, your 15, 11, 9, 7, and 3 year old will not rob a bank because the photos are gone (esp. the 3 year old)! :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karenciavo Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Did you do a search? Look in the trash to see if the 3 yo dragged the folder there by mistake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1bassoon Posted April 5, 2008 Author Share Posted April 5, 2008 Yeah, Karen - When I do spotlight search for "pictures" - NOTHING comes up. It's weird. I'm about to call apple care but I think we're DONE FOR. The strangest - on my dh and dd's screens, their picture folders are fine. Just on mine, there's nothing. My 15dd and 11 ds "swear" they didn't delete them when they were making space on the computer to edit their Star Wars takeoff movie. And it does seem like I have the same amount of space on my drive available - these were over 1100 pictures, so you'd think I'd notice a difference once they were gone? Sigh. I did call my dad, who didn't rub it in too badly. . . . . . Thanks for the encouragement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
readwithem Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Maybe search your recent history - click on the apple in the top left hand corner and then click on "recent items" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
