Only have folder with question mark when I turn on imac
i need to put the os x 10.4 tiger in my mac but I insert disk and i hear it spinning but nothing happens. Do I have to have a mac keyboard or will any usb work?
Here's an article on the subject.

Sorry, didn't read the whole question. Hold the Option or Alt key down and the boot manager will start giving you the choice of the DVD or disks. -
Some photos do not populate in Safari, only blue box with question mark
Examples: In Facebook and Pinterest some of the photos are showing, others just have a small blue box with a question mark in the middle.
Any help would be appreciated!Blue box with a question mark means that images are not available now.
Servers storing those images may be down.
Best. -
Why am I getting a blue box with question mark instead of logo image? It happens in my signature (in gmail) and in mailchimp (again, only with the logo).
The question mark in the box, if it looks like this: means that safari cannot find the linked image. On windows machines, this would be the equivilant of the small "page-with-a-red-X" logo that appears in the same scenario. Check the reference to the image and make sure that the image is in the correct location, and is accessable by the reference.

HELP! Getting Blue Q with question marks when visiting web sites
I see from the replies to similar posts that is is recommended to use the default settings under Advanced/ mime settings, in Quick time
I always had all boxes checked in all the categories as my preference would be to have Quick time play every thing. And encountered no problems .
I recently purchased flip4mac studio and now every thing is all messed up, web pages that used to work fine as far as saving content to my desk top or downloads folder, or copying and pasting urls, for sharing now work no more, I get the blue Q with the question mark as shown in these web sites I am completely hobbled as far as sharing my videos.
[Post Edited by Hosts due to adult content]
What are the correct settings for quicktime preferences ?
and please explain kiosk mode , I do have Macromedia flash player installed, and I guess Adobe, when I visit different sites with video, and I control click on the player I am able to tell which player is playing the media, only quicktime offers the save to my computer option, this is how I wound up with flip 4 mac, it was recommended to play content , I also just upgraded my safari to the beta version
iMac G5/G4 12 inch Power book Mac OS X (10.4.9)"What are the correct settings for quicktime preferences ?"
Make sure you have the latest versions of Adobe Flash Player Software
QuickTime Preferences > Advanced > MIME Stettings > Miscellaneous.
Deactivate the "Flash Media" option.
This tells the browser not to to display Flash Media and lets the newly installed Adobe software work its magic.
==================
If the above thread doesn't help, try this...
Thanks to QuickTimeKirk........
Quit QuickTime.
Open User (Home)/Library/Preferences and delete any .plist file with QuickTime in its name. Don't worry as a new one will be created.
Open System Preferences/QuickTime and see if the window and tabs work as they should.
The following post should be helpful also: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=779076&tstart=0
===================
Since you are using Safari then I suggest that you check out Safari 2.0 Help Webpages aren't working (indicated by boxes with question marks)
"I recently purchased flip4mac studio"
Then you should contact Flip4Macs technical customer service and/or post in their forums if none of the above suggestions works out.

Safari Image turns to Tiny Blue Box with Question Mark
Hi all,
I get tiny blue question mark a lot in Safari.
Many Website where i visit almost everyday, the images appear as "tiny blue box with question marks". My Firefox also fails to load the images and had the same problem with "tiny blue box with question marks". Before every site work fine. I have been searching through Google and many others search for almost 12 hrs for a solution to solve this problem but none of it really works out. Basically, I have tried everything, I just can't find and still not able to fix this issue in Safari and Firefox.
Is this a Safari 3.0.4/Firefox 2.0.0.9 problem, or is there some setting on my Mac wrong or is it a new virus recently?
If anyone has any solution to solve this problem, an very much appreciated...
CK Lee (From Thailand)Hi guys, I am also in Bangkok and working (I use the term loosely) with True. Like you, the images have not been loading over the weekend and I have been trying to track this down. I went through all the motions of restarting, clearing caches, etc., but that was no good.
On Saturday morning, I went into my office where I have access to another network (I don't usually use it as it is a bit flaky), but when I tried that, the images did load.
Back at home, I tried again and the blue squares reappeared. I checked some of my own web pages which also had the squares, but only selectively (images in the same directory were OK; those that were accessed via internal links were not). Using FTP I checked the website: images were all OK as were the links on the pages themselves.
As an experiment, I uploaded one image. When I tried the page again, the image appeared. I then uploaded both of the affected directories and the pages were back to normal after a couple of reloads. What this indicates to me is that the cache, either at True or upstream, has a problem.
I do think however that it is True as the other server I used would also access the CAT caches and they seemed OK.
A series of notes to the True helpdesk might jolt them into some action on Monday morning after they have had their starter coffee. I have had some success in the past with [email protected]
All the best. -
Suddenly I see the usual blue box with question mark inside mail messages instead of pix
Suddenly I see the usual blue box with question mark inside mail messages instead of pix.
That did not happen before.
It happened only on certain pages with Safari, like the google news feed which did not display pix.
However, this new mail problem is really disturbing.
I checked Little Snitch and port 80 is open.
I checked java pref.
I am at a loss.
PLEASE HELP!Suddenly I see the usual blue box with question mark inside mail messages instead of pix.
That indicates that your Mail preferences are setup to not display remote images in email messages. You should check Mail->Preferences->Viewing and make surre the box to 'Display remote images in HTML messages' is checked.
I checked java pref.
Java has nothing to do with Mail, or displaying images in it or any browser. -
Mail has blue boxes with question marks
I have a new MacBook Pro. In mail when I receive anything with images, I just see blue boxes with question marks. Yes, i have tried reloading Mail, I have tried clicking on and off from Display remote Images, I have checked all my preferences and it just won't work.
How can i fix this - there must bean answer.
I am running Mail 5.2...it doesn't do this on my son's machine which is the same. OS 10.7.4Hello Linc,
I'm not one to normally thread jack a post, but I am having the exact same issues, i found your posts while trying to solve the problem. Like tmack101, when I boot into safe mode the images load correctly, so something is loading up at startup thats causing the issue. I am very PC proficient, but am still new to OS X. I will post my results below to your terminal commands:
The domain/default pair of (/Users/darkster/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist, PreferPlainText) does not exist

Craigsphone app pictures are blue boxes with question marks?
When I use the Craigsphone app for my iPhone, the images are now blue boxes with question marks. The pictures used to show up fine, but now don't. Is there a setting somewhere I need to change and if so, where is it? I've been through my phone and can't figure it out. I've also restarted and restored my phone and that hasn't worked.
Thanks in advance!I am also running into this problem. net every picture doesn't show though, just maybe three quarters worth.

Hello, sometimes when I open up mail messages or web pages I get little blue boxes with question marks where there should be images? What am I doing wrong? Is there a setting I'm missing? Thanks!!
I have the same problem. I tried refreshing the email but it doesn't work. I'm able to see the images on my iPhone. Maybe my internet connection is causing it. It began happening a month ago but I haven't changed anything with my internet nor notice any difference in anything else I do internet wise.

Iphone 3g S viewing email pics are showing as blue boxes with question mark
I am trying to view an e-mail on my iphone 3g S and the pics are not displaying. Instead little blue boxes with question marks are showing. Any ideas on why this is happening?
The pictures couldn't be loaded due to one or more reasons. Some common reasons are: your email server timed out, the photo was taking too long to load, you had poor signal strength, the file was corrupted, the download failed, or the photo couldn't be displayed because the file type wasn't supported.

Getting blue boxes with question marks instead of pictures in ipad 2
I am getting blue boxes with question marks instead of pictures on my ipad 2. I do not have Wi-Fi.
I am getting these question marks on many web sites. I thought it probably had to do with no Wi-Fi but I didn't have this problem until the last month or so and I've had the ipad since December.

Small blue boxes with question marks
I was on a web site recently, and two white bunnies playing Badminton popped up over top of the web page. I accidentally click on them trying to move them out of the way, and I wound up on a strange web site in a foreign language. After closing that page and restarting Safari, some of the images and graphics were no longer displayed. Instead small blue boxes with question marks in the center of them are in place.
As well, I can no longer log on to my gmail account. It just fashes a bunch of stuff like this below, over and over and nothing displays.
Welcome to Gmail
Did something change on my Safari setup?
If anyone has any experience with this I could really use your help.
Thanks
