Apple TV problems viewing photo events

I have recently updated my second generation Apple TV. Since then the events when viewing the photos on the TV are in age order, oldest first. With over 13,000 images spanning a number of years I have a lot of events and so scrolling through all these to get to the ones I've just added is very annoying and time consuming. I have tried altering the order in iPhoto, restarted itunes and also have been all through the Apple TV menu settings. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get the order back to the original settings which was most recent first?
Also, not nearly as annoying but when listening to music with the screen saver on occasionally instead of a picture showing a album cover pops up, does anyone know how to stop this?
Both of these only started happening since updating the Apple TV to the latest software.
Thanks in advance

I have to unplug my skybox whenever I want to use it in order to be able to switch it on, then occasionally it will disappear in the middle of something and then I need to remove my card, wipe it, put it back in and restart again.
Time to get rid of it then.
I did in August and don't miss it one bit.

Problem viewing photos in PE Organiser

Desperately need help with a problem viewing my pics in PE 9 Organiser. Many (most) of my photos will not display properly - instead, in their frames are yellow (?)'s in the upper left hand corner and blue (?)'s in the center. That is the situation whether I am in the "thumbnail" display or the "import batch" mode of "Display".
Strangely, I have used a number of these photos in an album recently and they displayed perfectly then.
Anyone have a clue???
Thanks tons.
Sam

Saurabhh:
It seems you are absolutely right on about the missing files. My only problem now is to figure how to restore about sixty
photos to the links -- maybe I should just delete the links?
I have another problem whch you may be able to help me with if you don't mind. I've discovered that my DVD Player only recognizes .jpg or .mpg format and my Photo Elements wants to create the slideshows in .wmv. Any suggestion sfor changing that.
Thanks

I have problems viewing photos in blogs using Blogger

I have a couple of blogs that I frequent and lately (within the last month or so), I am having trouble viewing photos the bloggers have posted. Sometimes the first photo will seem to load, but by the time the entire page has loaded, where there is a photo, all I can see if a small rectangle. These are bloggers who are using Blogspot/Blogger. No one else seems to be having a similar problem.
I have Firefox 3.6.13.
I have tried all the recommended things, clear cache, cookies etc. and I still can't see the photos.

Thanks cor-el
Tried all of the suggestions and it seems not to be due to an extension or theme.
The problem only seems to occur on blogs at the *.blogspot.com address, who are using Blogger software.
I wonder if there is some incompatibility between a recent version of Blogger and Firefox?? I have tried contacting Blogger, to see if there are problems, with no success, although I have found 2-year-old posts on the Web indicating some problems at that time -- nothing recent though and no suggested fix.
Any ideas?

Problem viewing photos on Facebook app

For some reason I am unable to view photos on SOME of my friends on the Facebook app. When you go to the 'photos of....' tab it says there is a problem connecting with Facebook. But when you go to another 'folder' on the same profile, you can view all of the pictures in that particular folder with no problems. Also in ANY folder I am having a problem looking at pictures over the number of about 24 or 25. It says "more pictures", and when you touch the highlight, it acts like it is loading them, then just stops.

I did once. I had a strange problem happen once where it would leave some of the pages blank where you could see your friends statuses and new photos, without having to go into their profile. The problem started before I did the recent itouch update, but has grown in the number of profiles afterwards. But I have not reinstalled it after I did the update I bought. Could that be it?

Problem viewing photos in specific events

Recently, when I click on an event, it will not show me the grid with all my photos in that specific event. It will only show me one photo that is enlarged, and i cannot select various photos to copy over to another album or whatever i would like to do. In the past I have been able to view the set of photos in the event, but no more. I am not sure what happened. I checked the preferences and the box is checked for show event photos for Double Click Event -
Any help would be greatly appreciated-
thanks bunches

Recently I post this Message:
"two days ago when I opened iphoto program, last 3 years events are no more at my events list. I didn't deleded them, I'm the only one user of my macbook. I kept photos from 2002 up today, after I lost last 3 years events I only have 9,000 photos at library (may be there were more than 20,000 before they disappear). I found all missing photos in the iphoto library carpet, but iphoto doesn't show them for me. How can I view again these photos??"
Check these out (open iphoto library with right click mouse on it, select Show Pack content"... something like that) Your original photos must to be there

Apple TV: Problems displaying photos properly

I have sync'd the Apple TV to my "My Pictures" folder. For some reason when viewing a slideshow of these photos some of them that are shown in "portrait" on my computer are displaying in "landscape" on the tv. I'm stumped on how this happened and what to do to correct it. It doesn't turn all photos to landscape so I don't know what is unique about the ones it has done that to. Any ideas for me? It's driving me nuts!
Thanks!

These are probably JPGs.
Photos are either truly portrait i.e. they're saved from an editor with data organised in this orientation, or have their orientation set by various flags.
Many cameras will set a 'flag' to indicate the camera was held portrait during shooting but not all do.
Resaving JPGs as portrait will usually recompress them losing quality due to reordering rows and columns, but there is a flag in the JPEG header that can control orientation without affecting the data and is referred to as lossless rotation, and some software can change this setting.
If an image is truly Portrait then it should show ok on AppleTV.
The potential problem lies with the other 2 methods.
Sometimes only the manufacturer's display/editing software knows that a shot was portrait (due to a manyfacturer's flag in the EXIF data) - consequently it shows it ok, but other apps or devices still think it's a landscape image.
I can't remember if AppleTv handles lossless JPEG rotation or not.
Windows XP's image preview rotation function isn't lossless (last time I used it anyway), so any photos rotated with that should show as portrait.
Can you remember how you rotated images to portrait, or if the viewing software on XP just knew they were?
A portrait image could also have a rotation flag set that makes it show landcsape even when it isn't.

Problem viewing photo in full screen in PSE10

Hi. Since I bough my new equipment for photo ( Canon 5D Mark III ) it is impossible to view full screen photo in the organizer of version 10 of Elements. All the update are done.
I can see 1 ou 2, and the it shows like a scratch picture. This is very important, because it is the only way I can choose between 2 or 3 pictures.
It is not my graphic card the problem, since in Adobe Lightroom 4, I dont have this problem.
What can I do, to correct this ?

Use F11 in Organizer. Use floating windows in editor.
Ohh, ok, sorry.

The beauty of floating windows is that you can maximize and minimize them individually. When cascading and tiling you can also press the tab key to temporarily get rid of all the pallets and tools. That will give greater screen real estate for examining your images. Simply press the tab key again to bring back the pallets.
Thanks, I will try using this.
Concerning F11 in Organizer, no that is my problem and what bring me here.
Like I first said, it begin with my new camera. Picture are 25 to 27mb and 5760x3840 ... taking very long to show in full screen and does not show at all after viewing 2 or 3 at the row.

Problems viewing photos in iPhoto 11

I recently upgraded to iPhoto 11 and I am running Lion. In Events, no key photos show (all are black) although all the photos are there, because I can see tiny thumbnails when I am in the Photos screen. Also, when I double click to try to open a singular photo, I get a black screen with a triangle/exclamation point. Any answers out there for why my photos are not viewing properly? Thanks.

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
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 Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
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.

Problems viewing photos and videos

Hi
I have just got my Z1 compact and noticed that when I open camera and select to the pictures (little box bottom right of camera gui) if the phone is in the normal upright position the selection panel (panel where you select which application you want to view the photos with) is incorrectly orientated as if the phone has been rotated like landscape mode see screen shot below but I was holding the device in the normal useage position upright so basically the picture should be rotated right by 90 degrees - is this the normal way it works?
Also there doesn't seem to be a gallery application or should I use Albums or photos as shown in the screen shot
Regards

Problem viewing photos after restoring new iPhone 6

Got a new iPhone 6 yesterday. Followed the basic steps to duplicating my old 5 to the 6 and synced perfectly. However, when I went to view my photos, I noticed that nearly all of them were blank/white. The phone recognized that there were photos but would not show them or load them. Can I get some help on how to get my photos to show? I also have iCloud Library Sharing turned on.

Greetings kspenrath,
After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing an error with the Camera app on your iPhone. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
How to restart
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
How to reset
You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,
BobbyD

Problems viewing photos im iPod5G when using camera dock connecter

Apple TV,Problems viewing a purchased movie?

I am somewhat new at this. I have a new Apple TV and have successfully rented and viewed movies using it. Today there was a movie I wanted to watch that could only be purchased. I decided to purchase. Went through the process and received the alert that the movie was ready to be viewed. When I selected it to be viewed, I received an error message that stated that this Apple TV was not authorized to view this content. I am sure I paid the 9.95 through itunes and now I can't view the movie. Did I do something wrong in set-up?
