Blue ? instead of pictures

Hii, i have a 15inch macbook pro (latest one available), and in my email and safari certain pictures dont appear but what does is a little blue question mark. ive had this laptop since february and i've done all the updates. this is really starting to annoy me!!
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks

Those are usually picture files that have not been properly displayed. I don't use Apple's Mail, but I'm sure that there may be some default to downloaded all pictures, even if only for 'approved' email addresses. I don't use Safari, either, but there should be some setting to download all pictures on a given page.
This assumes, of course, that the link is not 'broken' - that can happen and there's no remedy for that.
Maybe a Mail/Safari user will chime in with the 'correct' settings.

  • 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.

    If you mean web pages in Safari, try this:
    Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found

  • I keep getting an intermittent error on web pages where a blue box with a question mark appears instead of pictures.  For example Facebook and Zappos would load normally on one visit, but if I visit other websites and return I get the blue box.

If I restart the problem will go away temporarly. However, normally returnes in time.

    HI,
    From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Appearance tab. Tick the box next to: Display images when the page opens.
    If that box is already ticked, from the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset. Relaunch Safari. If you still have problems loading images, go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*
    Make sure Safari is not running in Rosetta. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle so it faces down. Where you see Open using Rosetta... make sure that is NOT selected.
    If you still have problems, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If it's a successful launch, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.

  • Exclamation Mark instead of Pictures

    Until last week I was using 10.4.11 and iPhoto 7.1.1 without any problems of any kind. I then had a larker hard disk built into my MBP. The Service Technician installed 10.5.1 onto the new disk by accident and sinced then i keep getting exclamation marks from my folders in iPhoto instead of pictures or when i try to work on the pictures the window is blank though the strip shows th picture that should be being seen. Before i update to 10.5.4, I want to see if there is anyother way of solving this. The stores are open tomorrow but the technicians are not there till monday.
    The problem is somewhat critical because I need the pictures for my lectures and supervision this weekend.
    thanks in advance

    It sounds like your library got corrupted in the upgrade process - do you have a currect back up of the library6.iphoto file and/or of the entire library?
    If you have a backup of teh library6.iphoto file replace the on ein the corrupted library. Or If you have a total backup you should drag the iPhoto library from the pictures folder to the desktop and load the backup - if everything is ok delete the one from your desktop
    If you do not ahve backupas then quit iPhoto, backup your iPhoto library and try rebuilding the library - launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) and command (apple) keys - use the resulting dialogue to rebuild the library
    It that does not work download iPhoto lLibrary Manager and use it to rebuild the library (it creats a new library so you will still have the old one)
    If none of those work you will ahve to start over - quit iPhoto, drag the iPhoto library from the pictures folder to the desktop, launch iPhoto and create a new library - open the iPhoto library oin yoru desktop and drag each folder from the originals folder onto the running iPhoto (or onto the iphoto icon in the Dock) to create a new library with yoru old events - but no projects, albums etc

    The first thing I did was UPDATE. I have all the latest updates available (according to the updater). The Camera Raw Plug-in says it is version 8.0.
    The RAW files are from a Canon T3i. It's a very common camera, I can't believe it wouldn't be supported.

  • I can't view video on imported clips on FCPX, it shows blue instead of image

    I can't view video on my imported clips on FCPX, it shows blue instead of image on the clip. I can hear sound but no video. What is the problem. I wish someone can help me on this issue? Thanks.

    The camera is Sony Handycam HDR-CX550. I used the internal hard disc to record. I can's use MTS clips if it is recorded on the internal hard disc. I converted clips into MOV, MP4, and Final Cut formats, non of them worked on Final Cut Pro X. I tried to import the same clips on iMovie, it worked but super slow. MOV and MP4 formats used to work for FCPX, the only difference is I recorded the footage with HD 1920x1080.
    The clip I imported showed as a blue thing with two rectagle shapes on it. I can hear the sound, but no video. I also imported my old clips with sam format, it worked. I tried a lot of things, no use.
    By the way, what is spwecs?

  • Grey boxes instead of pictures in pdf

    All pictures in my pdf is grey boxes instead of pictures - what's wrong?
    I use Acrobat 9 Pro (just startet with cs4).

    Hi Bad AD,
    Doubt you still have this issue but the quick fix to being able to view the document is to go to:
    Acrobat
      >Preferences
         >Documents
           >Find the Header:
                   PDF/A View Mode
                   View Documents in PDF/A mode:  Make picklist value: "Always"
    This should resolve it. 
    PDF/A mode is the international standard for long term document archiving. If you are interested in learning more about it, Click here to go to Wikipedia's explanation.
    Hope it helps for you and anyone else who gets this message!

  • Some of the apps previously downloaded have now become blank - white box instead of picture. Name of app still appears. Have tried hard reboot and sync to make sure everything is up to date. Anybody ever had this? How can I fix?

    Some of the apps previously downloaded have now become blank - white box instead of picture. Name of app still appears. Have tried hard reboot and sync to make sure everything is up to date. Anybody ever had this? How can I fix?

    One more thing to try.  Double click on the home button.  Scroll in that bottom line of icons (swipe finger to left) to the app that are all white.  Hold your finger on the app until the - sign appears.  Tap it to close the app.  Hopefully it will then show up correctly.  (As they say about chicken soup curing a cold, "can't hurt")

  • What do you use instead of picture package in photoshop cs6

    What can you use instead of picture package in photoshop cs6. You cannot import it anymore to make pictures. I do not want to print one at a time.

    I think the Bridge Output Module comes as standard with CS6, but I might be wrong.  Even if you have CC, you can download the Output Module.

    Hi,
    Please try right clicking the image and select Update Thumbnail.
    If the problem still persists, please go to the location of catalog folder mentioned in Help > System Info
    Rename the thumb.5.cache file to thumb.5.cache.old and now relaunch the application.
    Please note if the file size is large, application will take some time in generating thumbnail.
    Thanks,

  • Should my text messages be blue instead of green after the iOS 5 update?

    Should my text messages be blue instead of green after the iOS 5.0 update on my iPhone 4?

    Blue messages are iMessages. Dont worry they work pretty much the same as txts
    Instead of being sent via the sms service through your operator they're sent either as cellular data or wifi if you have it. The idea being that it functions in much the same way as BBM does on a Blackberry.
    You can IIRC turn them off.
    iOS 5 automatically determines if the intended recipient is using iOS5, and if they are, automatically sends the message as an iMessage rather than a txt. The colour change is designed to let you know whats what.

  • Why are some of my badges blue instead of red?

    Suddenly some of my badge notification numbers are blue instead of red.  Anyone else having this happeneing or know why?

    I've become a serious Mac user only in the past year, and Terminal is one area that I have not learned to work with. It sounds kind of like the old DOS commands in early PC days. I'd love to be able to apply and use such things, but maybe I need to do some serious leanring first?

  • When i open .jpg picture in photoshop on MAC the the background thumbnail in the layers panel looks like a white box with the brush inside instead of picture thumbnail. how to fix it?

    when i open .jpg picture in photoshop on MAC the the background thumbnail in the layers panel looks like a white box with the brush inside instead of picture thumbnail. how to fix it?

    Very easy. That means you have a "no layer thumbnails" option selected.
    Go into the Layers Panel menu at the upper right of the Panel, choose Panel Options and you will see Thumbnail sizes to choose from.
    Select one, click OK.
