10.7.2 pictures folder has become a package: is there a fix?

Hi,
When I click on it in the sidebar I get terminus window with the current login date/time; when I click it on the list next to the sidebar I get a picture of a folder, saying it's got 6 g of pics in it, and that it is a package.
Is there a fix for this, eg via terminal?
Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi - SUCCESS ! It suddenly (after much searching) dawned that : 'if it thinks it's a package, treat it like a package' and did right click - open package contents, and blimey, there it all is! I have several libraries in the pictures folder, and had to do the same for each library. It may work in Snow Leopard too, saving having to deal with terminal commands.

Desktop folder has become a "package" mac os x v 10.7.2

My Desktop folder has become a "package"; each time I click this "folder" it launchs the aplication "Terminal".

Lynn, try to relax. There is nothing about the upgrade itself that would cause those problems.
In here, you'll find tons of problems, it is the ER for 10.7 problems. Most users upgrade with no issues at all and don't ever come here.
Usually, problems are pre-exisisting and are exacerbated by the update process. I know that isn't what you want to hear but it's true. Did you run Disk Utility > Repair Disk before updating?
Have you tried starting up in Safe Mode and test?
Do you have any existing backup? Are they WD drives?
There are new items on the Dock in 10.7 and if you don't want them just drag them off and "poof" them.

Desktop folder has become a Package

I know about the 'freezing' desktop issue but i don't think my issue fits into that category..
When i click the Desktop folder from Finder i get "There is no default application specified to open the document 'Desktop'".
If i drag and drop a file to the Desktop my icon switches to the prohibited icon. If i do a screen grab, in order to see the output i need to "Show Package Contents" on the Desktop package.
I can't find any occurrance of this elsewhere on the net, any other sufferers?
Thanks..

That is odd. Try starting in "Safe Mode" If that works go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. (EDIT: if you have no desktop to drag them to drag them to another location temporally.) Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving ~/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
It will take a bit more time to startup because it runs a directory check.
If that's not it, while still in safe mode trash your desktop folder then, then create a new one in your Home directory with exactly the same name. If there's anything you need from your old Desktop, save it off.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.

Desktop Folder has become package

The Users/myname/desktop folder has become a "package" rather than a folder. No idea how this happened and the result is too many bizarre things to go into. "Get Info" on the blue desktop icon shows all permissions at read/write - but instead of saying that it is a folder - which it does on my other 3 macs - it has become a package.
TIA for any advice about how to correct this.

Look in it by right-clicking and using "Show Package Contents". If it contains any files you want to save, drag them to another folder. Delete the Desktop package and logout. It should create anew Desktop folder when you login.

Screensaver from slideshow Pictures folder has bad resolution

Since Leopard, I have noticed that almost every other picture in the screensaver slideshow (from the "pictures Folder") has a very low resolution resulting in blocky slides.

Had chosen wrong file for pictures.

Visible folder has become "invisible"

Visible folder has become "invisible":
I thought I'd lost a folder but when I was doing a search for a possible copy of one of it's content files, I found the contents along with the "trail" for that file's location. Within the chain of files, there was my missing folder.
I don't know how I made the folder invisible BUT how do I get that folder back into my real-world?

Hi Charles,
the "/" means that the original folder is directly in
the root directory. Open File Buddy, select "New List
Window" from the menu "List", then click "Add" and
add your hard disk. Now double-click it once which
should show the root directory with folders such as
"Library", "System", "Users" and so forth. One of
these folders should be the invisible folder you are
looking for (given that you selected to show
invisible items in the Preferences of File Buddy).
Gulliver,
Did as directed. File did not show-up when I did the double-click. It DID show up when I did a single click to create the sub-listing. However, trying to make it visible in the "information" window gave NO changed results. Finding the folder was not a problem, making it visible "outside" the disc program is my goal. That and figuring out how it became invisible in the first place. As far as I can determine, NO symbol (.) or (/) appears in front of the folders name.

Pictures folder has turned into a package!

I'm hoping someone may be able to help with a strange problem. My Pictures folder has transformed itself into a 'package' and wants an application to open it, but there isn't an option to select the finder! I can open it by right clicking and everything is there, but it isn't accessible from 'Image Capture' or for iphoto, which appears to have started a new library for itself, perhaps mistaking the 'picture' package for the library as there are files in there which are usually in the iphoto package. Is there any way to tell the folder not to be a package any more??? It seems to have happened after I restarted the computer (which I did because there were some photo files in the trash which I couldn't empty, and restarting sorted that!!)

Thank you. I tried deleting the plist as you suggested but no change unfortunately. I also tried repairing permissions, and there are some items it says cannot be repaired but no idea what they are?

My /Users folder has become suddenly hidden

My /Users folder has become hidden.
I can restore his visibility with Terminal "sudo chflags nohidden /Users", but when I restart it returns to invisibility.
Any help?

What I did as a workaround was in Finder/Go/Go to Folder type Users. That made the User folder visible. I created an alias of the folder and put it in Finder's Sidebar. Repeated procedure typing Shared, making an alias, and putting it in the Sidebar. Restarted and the alias links will take you there even after a restart.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable. How do I fix this?

Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable. How do I fix this?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

There appear to be big problems with Mavericks Mail, particularly if it's used for Gmail. Have other users noticed that it slows to a crawl and can't reload the contents of a folder instantly....Is there a fix coming?

There appear to be big problems with Mavericks Mail, particularly if it's used for Gmail. Have other users noticed that it slows to a crawl and can't reload the contents of a folder instantly....Is there a fix coming?

There is a large thread relating to Gmail, but nothing that sounds like that.
Nobody here knows what Apple is going to do.
You might try removing the Gmail account and then add it back in.

I have 8000 photos in my iPhoto library. Many are duplicated in the "Pictures" folder in the Finder. Is there an easy way to detect and delete duplicates in the "Pictures" folder?

Anyone know how to detect and delete duplicate photo files that exist in the Pictures folder in the Finder that are also in the iPhoto library?

There's no way to compare the photos in the library with those outside the library. However, as long as you're running a "managed" library
You can import batches of the photos, i.e by folder, into the library. If the photo is already in the library you will be given this notice:
Check that checkbox and clik on the Don't Import button. When that folder is finished importing (or not) delete it and go to the next.
If you need to check for duplicates in the library you can use one of these applications to identify and remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free
Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported into another.
PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
DeCloner - $19.95 - can find dupicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.

Received message: your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable". How do I fix this???

iPhoto will not open. "Your photo library is either is use by another application or has become unreadable. Shut down & restart your computer….". I did this and it still will not open. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Do the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

IChat picture (video) has become noisy as if trying too high aperture / iso

I have been one of the lucky with nil problems with iChat.
I today noticed that my picture in iChat is 'noisy' - that is the picture on MY end has a lot of colour noise (digital) in it, that look as if you'd take a camera and have it at 3000 iso or another insane amount. It works 'fine' but the noisy picture is markedly different than before.
I can't exactly place if this started right after a recent upgrade or not...
I am using an iChat (latest version before its demise)....
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
Dan

Hello Ralph and Dan.
If the "Improve your picture...." suggestions do not help, I suggest using the "How to test your iSight to ensure it is functional" suggestions at this link:
http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage4.html
Those suggestions should let you determine whether the trouble is peculiar to certain apps or user accountsor whether it is an iSight hardware problem (ALL apps in ALL accounts.)
Cheers,

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.
