I had years worth of pictures on our old Apple computer. About a year ago, I asked DH to back them up on to the external hardrive...which he says he did. Fast foward, I cannot find the pictures on aperture or Iphoto....becauuuuuse - are you ready for this?? - they are only thumbnails.
This is what I can understand so far. DH saved the thumbnails but not the JPegs. Then, supposedly deleted the Jpegs from the computer. I found this out when we recently got our MacBook pro and I wanted to transfer the pictures.
Our other Apple computer is old (about 5 yrs) - it is out of Applecare warranty...and all this happened before Time Machine was around. I was wondering if it was worth it to take it to the Genius Bar to have one of the Geniuses try to retrieve my pictures. I am sure it will be pretty pricey. Or are they (the pictures) gone forever??
I want to strangle DH!! I am so upset that I do not even want to talk to him about it.
