Strange error occurring /only/ on landscape photos

I'm using iPhoto '11 version 9.4.3   I noticed today that a very specific set of images in one "event" are giving an error when I try to view them. All thumbnails work for every single picture. The pictures that are giving the error _do show up_ in the full window size when I press spacebar to look at them, but as soon as the image comes up, a dialog box pops up and says: "Alert   The photo "_MG_1490.JPG" could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found." with two buttons, (Cancel) (Find Photo...). 
My photos are stored in the iPhoto Library so choosing Find Photo would help me none. As soon as I select Cancel, the image that was just there goes away and I'm left with a black screen and a white triangle with an "!" inside. I can press spacebar again to back out of that image and look at the event again. And, I can then press spacebar again, on the same image, and the same exact events take place (image shows, then disappears when cancel is pressed).
The curious thing about this is that in this event, every single picture that is in Portrait orientation opens without error. However, every single picture in this event that is oriented in Landscape is giving the error I described above.
every. single. image. (in this event)   ... very strange.
I have tried the Cmnd+Option method and rebuilt the library, rebuilt the cache, etc, all four of the options it gives. I have also tried the iPhoto Library tool that is often recommended here and rebuilt the library that way. It rebuilt and what turned out was that event only had the portrait pictures in it, all pictures that were landscape are just not in the rebuilt library.. I have also removed and reinstalled iPhoto from the App Store again with the same results each time.
Is there anything that could have happened that is causing one event to throw errors on _only landscape_ pictures? And again, when the picture is opened, it does show the picture under the error message, but then disappears once I click a button on the error...

That problem happens when one is running a "referenced" library
and the source files have been moved from the location they were in when added to the library.  You can check your iPhoto/Advanced preference pane to see if that checkbox is checked or not.  If it is it could have been unchecked for that one import but that's unlikely as it would have had be be rechecked or the iPhoto preference file was deleted and regenerated.
Select one of the thumbnails and use the File ➙ Reveal in Finder ➙ Original menu option. You will be taken to the folder inside of iPhoto that should house the original file for that thumbnail.  Does it. Is the original file there?
Another reason this could occur is that the original files for that event were moved via the Finder somehow.

    Why am I getting this error message? An error occurred while joining this photo stream. Please try again later.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Have you tried again later. Have you asked the owner if they can access the photos.

    I keep getting this error when I click on the link inviting me to join a Photo Stream: "An error occurred while joining the Photo Stream. Please try again later."
    I was the one who set up the Photo Stream and sent the link to myself. I called Apple and they said I did everything right and the server must be temporarily down, but it has been the same for the better part of a day.

    None of the fixes above worked for me.  Continued getting the "try again" error message. 
    Tryed a bunch of things, such as going directly to icloud on Safari to open the mail message, no luck.
    Tryed the following;
    Went to iCloud and logged in via Safari, clicked on my account name in top right corner, selected "Advanced" on drop down menu, and selected "Reset Photo Stream".
    Turned off Photo Stream on all devices and iPhoto.
    Turned on Shared Photo Stream option on Mac iCloud preferences.
    Tried the "Join This Photo Stream" button in my Mac Mail app .me account again.
    Still got the error message.
    Forwarded the original mail message to a yahoo account, selected "Join this Photo Stream" in the yahoo account mail (still in my Mac Mail app), and lo and behold, iPhoto opened and displayed the photos. 
    Could be this would have worked right from the start.
    Oh yea, still get the "try again" message if I click on the Photo Stream button in my .me account.

    Hi,
    I'm from germany so no 'best buy' but I think I will lock around sleeve/bag for a different product with same measures. Any tip?
    The clear plastic case is not what I want. I would like to use the player without such protections. I just want a sleeve to protect the player while its in my jacket/pants.
    Btw, i have bought this version: Creative Zen (maybe european version?). I also doesn't seem to have your mentioned sleeve. I also couldn't find it on the website.
    Anyway, thank you,

  • "An unknown error occurred while moving a photo" - LR 2.0 on Mac

    Lately, I've been seeing this error message with some regularity. It appears whenever I move photos containing a psd file. The scenario is as follows: I have started to use the 'edit in CS3' function to use the Silver Efex Pro plugin. I then save the image as a PSD and it shows up in LR2. However, when I move photos from the folder to which they are imported in LR2 to their final destination (on an external), I receive this error message. I am able to move all CR2 files without a problem. When I check the folders in Finder, I see that the files have been moved to the correct directory despite this error message. I then have to run the sync command on the target directory to get the files to show up and I promptly remove them from the source directory. Anyone else seeing similar error messages? I'm thinking of trying LR 2.1 RC1 to see if this resolves the issue.

    I am getting this error whilst attempting to move NEF (Nikon RAW files) either between folders on the same hard-drive or between hard-drives (which are incorporated into my Lightroom catalogue).
    Whenever I receive this error, a strange (locked) file appears in the directory/folder to which I intended to move the file and on examining this file in the terminal I can see that it contains the following error message: "cannot execute binary file...logout". The filename of this strange file is usually very random such as 470F00FF-9FBC-4517-84BF-26E52251B2B9-449-0000020C6A4DD5FD
    I do not have any problems with missing sidecars and always select "save metadata to files" before attempting to move the files...can anyone figure this out?

  • Please help: Strange error occurs when loading courseware

    Hi all,
    We have developed numerous training packages using Captivate 5. For the most part they seem to work nicely, however, three of our users (out of hundreds) have reported the following error (please view attached screenshot).
    One user is using Firefox (dont know browser or flash version),
    Second User is using Internet Explorer 8.0.7601  with a flash version of 10.2.1.53
    Third user tried both IE and Firefox and has a flash version of 10.2.15.1
    I myself am using IE 8 with a flash version of 10.2.153 and am not able to replicate the error.
    I have done a search on the forums trying to see if anyone else has come accross the same error and found the following thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3269584   However we are not using the aggregator for our projects, and although we do use a preloader, the vast majority of our users are not experiencing problems. For those users who are having difficulties two of them seem to be able to open some modules but not others (yet the same pre loader is used throughout all our courseware).
    One interesting observation that I have had is that for one user the error only occurs on modules that are using a table of contents (in overlay mode) and they are able to open all other modules. Yet, for one of the other users the error is occuring on all modules, even those without a table of contents.
    I can't figure out what may be causing the problem because each user is experiencing the error under slightly different circumstances (In terms of flash versions, browsers and whether or not the module has a table of contents or preloaders).
    Has anyone else experienced the above error. If so did you figure out what was causing the problem?
    thanks!

    Hi,
    Would it be possible to share that swf file, so that i will try from my end and see whether i can reproduce the issue?

  • An unknown error occurred (-50). Videos/Photos won't sync! HELP!!

    I have been getting this error ever since i updated to iTunes 7. I can update my music files just fine, but I can't put my podcasts, photos, or movies onto my ipod. I have tried restoring it, which didn't do anything except erase all the photos and movies i had on before. I am completely up to date with the ipod and itunes software. Can someone tell me how to fix this?
    Oh, and I also get the "disk cannot be read from or written to" error every once in a while, usually when I'm trying to put on the videos or photos. It's not usually a problem, though I don't know why it's still showing the error. I've tried switching USB ports, and my computer updates are up to date so I'm not sure what the problem is. I am aware of the article on this problem as well.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Error 1055 occurred at Property Node : Object reference is invalid. This Error occurs only in built application

    I am using a WaveformChart to display multiple traces of data, the number of traces is variable, I use property nodes to set the number of traces and whether the digital display is visible or not, as more data is available the number of traces is increased and the digital displays are made visible. Within the Labview design environment everything works well. However when running the built application if two or more traces are to be charted I see error 1055. I suspect it is related to making the digital display visible on two or more waveform traces. See VI attached.
    Why is this error happening ?
    Thanks.

    WF Charts only create their plots at development time.
    If you attempt to access a plot that was never there you get that error.
    To work-around this detail, simply size the legend for more plots than you ever expect to use at development time so that the plots are created and availabe when you do the build.

  • Photostream - error occurred while joining the Photo Stream

    I have read/tried out the suggestions from other users with the same issue but I am unable to resolve my issue.
    I originally was able to join the Photostream on all my devices.
    On the Mac, suddenly I was no longer connected to iCloud.
    I eventually managed to log in successfully.
    Then Photostream was out of date, as my other device has further received new photos on the stream.
    Logging back into iCloud and restarting didnt update the Photostream.
    I then  Unsubscribe.  I thought this would mean that I could "easliy" Subscribe again.
    But it is now not possible.
    I have tried re-subscribing via other devices and it is saying "This photo stream is no longer shared" (But I know it definately is)
    I did goto the Message Log and found the following information on clicking the link :"Subscribe to this Photo Stream:

    Please can someone assist me?

    Hi newMacUser09,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The first thing I'd like to address for you is the issue that the photos in the photostream are different on different devices.  Here's how to "reset" it.
    iCloud: My Photo Stream troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989
    I see different photos in My Photo Stream on each of my devices.
    Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they are older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so all devices may not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream.
    If you prefer to have only the most current photos in My Photo Stream on each of your devices, and delete the older photos:
    If there are any photos in My Photo Stream that you want to keep, save them to your Camera Roll, then back up your Camera Roll and other data using iCloud or iTunes.
    Turn My Photo Stream off in Settings > iCloud > Photos (on a device using iOS 6, go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream). Confirm that you wish to Delete Photos.
    Turn My Photo Stream back on. iCloud will automatically push your stored photos to your device.
    Repeat these steps for each device.
    Regarding your shared photo stream, the articles below may be helpful:

  • Proxy to file scenario - strange error

    Hi,
    we r finding a strange error occurring in our prd system. we have many scenarios of proxy to file and they all are running fine. the problem which is arising from the last few days is that - for some outbound interfaces at random, the message is generated in ECC, sent to XI and its file generated in local system of XI - this is fine - but what is happening as strange is the message is again getting processed in SMQ2 queue of ECC - this is the duplicate msg of the original msg - we can say this is duplicate msg becoz the msg id of the original msg in ECC, is available in XI with the same msg id and this erroring msg in SMQ2 is having the same msg id again - suggesting that somehow ECC is trying to process the same msg again.
    has anyone seen this type of error before. pls suggest how to rectify this error.

    hi,
    no upgrade happened recently.
    in ECC in SMQ2 queue the msg is erroring with error XI server CLIENT_RECEIVE_FAILED. INTERNAL Queue stopped. In SXMB_MONI in ECC the msg is erroring with :
    <SAP:Category>XIServer</SAP:Category>
      <SAP:Code area="INTERNAL">CLIENT_RECEIVE_FAILED</SAP:Code>
      <SAP:P1>402</SAP:P1>
      <SAP:P2>ICM_HTTP_TIMEOUT</SAP:P2>
    Error while receiving by HTTP (error code: 402, error text: ICM_HTTP_TIMEOUT)
    the scenario is async outbound proxy to file scenario. it is happening randomly for any interface and only a few times eg 1 msg out of 300 msg in a day is having this duplicate msg error.
    Please suggest.

  • Myfaces Tree2 - strange error

    Recently i came upon a strange behaviour using myfaces Tree2.
    I have a tree2,a textfield(required =true, id="code") on my screen.
    Iadd nodes to this tree (increasing depth), until i reach tree depth >44.
    After this point: if i select ANY node with depth<44, things are fine.
    BUT, if I select ANY node with depth>44, i get a validation error:
    "code": Required <-- comming from the textfield that was always there
    e.g.
    Root
    |--- Node with depth 1
                 |-------Node with depth 2
                                          |-- Node with depth >44 Can anyone help me on how to avoid this? The same code, but validation error occurs only for nodes with depth>44.
    Thanks
    Note: I found that the ID generated is 130 chars wide for depth=44148 chars for depth=53
