Dear WAMUG,
Just hit a problem with iPhoto. I ran it and imported from my camera,
with "delete after import" checked. I went away and came back, it
appeared to have done the importing and said the camera had "no
photos". I was a bit shocked when the import only showed the three
oldest of the 22, and Last Import showed the same. I closed it and
reopened - and even these photos had disappeared off iPhoto.
I found that the disc was pretty full and got an error to that effect
when I tried to boot Preview as well. So I have now freed up half a gig
and re-run iPhoto - still missing those imports. Searched using finder
- managed to find the three which did show up initially on iPhoto,
dragged them in and all's well there.
I'm a bit shocked at this point and desperately want to retrieve the
other pictures if they exist. Any hints as to where I could look? Any
way of revealing hidden files on the memory card? Would iPhoto really
have deleted them off the camera if it had run out of disc space,
before writing to disc?
Thanks for any advice. Panicking,
David
