Q: Some of my albums are "gone", but still exist (somehow)
I discovered that some of my albums are sort of gone, but do exist.
I have all my albums in a folder of the year they are made. Some folders with their albums in it are gone. I will not say hidden, because that sounds like the 'hide'-feature. It's not that. They were at some point just gone. All ( ! ) faces data is gone.
When I make a smart album with "album is", I see all (or nearly all, I didn't check) the albums that are not in plain sight.
It seems all photos are there. How do I make the albums visible again?
What I did?
- deleted and disabled iCloud Photo Library on iPad and iPhone
- deleted and disabled iCloud Photo Library on Mac, enabled it in a new library and let it all download.
- albums are gone on iCloud.com (so there is consistency. i though there was not, hence the actions on iPad/iPhone)
- i did a library repair action. did nothing
- called apple. it wasn't a problem they said. i have must done something wrong.
