Q: Upon Photos taking over iPhoto, it appears that all my "Events" (the most important part of y portfolio) have disappeared and been replaced by not only all my photos apparently jumbled, and mixed with other images. How can I recover the "Events"?
To give more info: although I have various albums, I spent ages putting all my photos into "Events". One advantage is that there are no duplicates in "Events" another is that the pics are where I want them for viewing or sharing or putting on CDs for safety (except I had not got around to putting them on CDs).
Now everything has gone from iPhoto (and iPhoto Library Manager) and I appear to e left with a jumble of images apparently taken from odd documents on my Mac Mini, mixed with a jumble of all (I assume) of the photos from my albums, including many many duplicates.
If I got my "Events" back I could always go to another photo enhancing system, as I have read that the "Photos" system is simplistic. I found that using all the facilities of the iPhoto enhancements there was rarely any need to use Photoshop Elements - and it was quick and easy to use.
I'm using OS X Yosemite
Thanks for any advice.
Mac mini, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
