Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I was working on a newsletter and inserting photos from my I Photo library. Next thing I knew my entire I Photo library was gone. Apple Care says it is gone. Isn't there any way to retrieve it?
MacBook Pro (13-inch Early 2011), iOS 6.1.3
You need to start a new thread as your problem is nothing the same as the thread you threadjacked
It also is not helpful to threadjack multiple threads - simpy start a new thread, supply the information needed to help you (what you have (version), what is happening and what recently changed)

I have just had this happen to me, 5000 photos gone. I am lucky that I have everything 'backed up' on a LG Device. Problem is, I don't know how to get them from the device and back to the computer. Any help for me out there?
Use the restore functionof the backup software you used to backup your library

Try the following you your only library:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.>Click on the Add Library button,
2 - select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
3 - make sure that in the rebuild window the checkbox "Scavange orphaned photos" is checked.
4 - now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
5 - in the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed. Click on the Create button.
Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
Note 2: Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
