Q: Hundreds of photos not showing since update from Time Machine to Photos on new MacBookPro
I have followed the instructions for updating the operating system and then rebuilding the Photo Library from my back up on Time Machine, onto my new MacBook Pro.
Most of the 33000 photos have transferred beautifully, but there are hundreds (maybe a few thousand) that are not showing thumbnails or the actual photos. I did the Command + Option Key and Library Rebuild twice. They are not showing still.
I can tell the photos are "there" because the locations and dates are showing as well as the shapes that indicate the photos. But there is no photo I can open or see in either thumbnail view or even when I select the photo and try to open it.
This is what I see:
Any thoughts on what I need to do? I know the back ups are still on TimeMachine. Should I begin again?
I did have to switch from iPhoto to Photos and made all those updates... just want all my photos back.
Thanks!
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014), OS X Yosemite (10.10.3), Photos
