Missing Photos in iPhoto and Unreadable Files in Time Machine
I seem to have a gap in iPhoto from 2009 and 2011 -- meaning my photos from this time period are missing and the monthly folders I created are empty.
I found the photos I'm looking for in Time Machine and tried to restore, but got the following result:
-- thumbnails displayed as exclamation points for all the "missing photos"
-- when I try to restore, I get an error box listing the path to the photos with the statement: "Unreadable Files. The following files could not be imported. (The file was missing.)"
I've tried Rebuilding the Photo Library 5-6 times to no avail. I am running iPhoto 7.1.5
I do not have trouble importing new photos as I have seen in other discussions. I am only trying to restore the photos from an earlier time from a TM backup.
Thanks for helping!
