My iPhoto show only faces not group pictures that were on the iPhoto before. What happened

My iPhoto are all messed up. It shows faces of all the pictures I took, but doesn't show all the people as a group. I went into my find and checked my iPhoto library and it is the same that shows in iPhoto. How do I get back my orignal pictures?

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:

  • what system are you running?
  • are you runnning iPhoto or Photos?
  • if iPhoto what version are you using?
  • what do you see in the Faces window when you double click on a face?
  • what fixes have you tried?
  • where is your library located?
  • did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
  • are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
  • what type of Mac?
  • how much free space on your boot drive?

I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10.3

I am running Iphoto

The Version is 9.6.1

When I double click on faces it shows the faces that I put in the face file.

I went back to my time machine to bring back all of my original pictures

My Library is stored in my Document files

I guess I did an update to iPhoto on April 12th 2015

This update was to go from iPhoto to photo

The rest of the questions you asked I don't know how to answer them.

On some of the pictures in iPhoto that only show the faces this is the information that is with the date of the picture.

XDgilDBptnG5x7y10kFmda. So I don't even know what that means.
