Q: Hi, My Iphoto (on Mavericks) shows me a thumbnail but actually it is another photo whan you open it up...any idea what the problem could be? big thanks!

This has happened since my snow leopard update to be fair. I continuously mess up all of my "events" with photoes that shoul now be there due to this mistake.

 

Anyone know something about it?

 

Big thanks in advance

    given the time this problem has existed hard to say what the results will be but Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your thumbnails - this may take several tries
