Can't open recent photos to view, explanation point shows up!!
Hello!
I have no idea what happened! I uploaded 1500 photos to iphoto after my vacation yesterday and made 2 seperate folders in iPhoto for them so I could send them off to friends and family and then I deleted them off my camera once uploaded. I got a message shortly after I downloaded DropBox saying that there were 1400 photos not dowloaded yet and do I want to download them, I said YES and now I can't even open the photos in iPhoto, but I can see the thumbnail small ones, when I open the photos it is an explaination point!!! I have never had this happen in 5 years since I've owned my computuer, please HELP!!!
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. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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.

I am using Mac after recent download I can not open a photo without it crashing
Can not open a photo with out it crashing, after a new update with the new Mac OS X system
Did you trash the prefs after updating to Yosemite? It is usually necessary.
Quit Elements.
Launch Finder and find the user Library by clicking the Go menu whilst holding down the Optn (alt) key (n.b. the library is hidden until you press the optn key) and inside the Library folder select the preferences folder. Then trash the following folder/files:

Ik kan in Bridge mijn foto's via photodownloader niet openen omdat RAW bestand van camera (Canon EOS 650D) niet ondersteund wordt, ook niet na updates?
Beste,
Ik heb Photoshop CS6, maar blijkbaar wordt mijn camera Canon EOS D650 niet ondersteund.

Welke versie van Photoshop heb je? Voor die camera heb je minstens CS6 nodig.

I can not open CR2-photos (Canon)
Hello,
I can not open CR2 photos (Canon). :-(
Both Bridge and Photoshop CS3. Although I have installed the plug-in Camera Raw 4.6.
Lightroom 4.3 runs everything fine.
What should I do?
Thanks for your help!!!
Hallo,
Ich kann keine CR2-Fotos öffnen. :-(
Sowohl in Bridge als auch Photoshop CS3. Obwohl ich das PlugIn Camera RAW 4.6 installiert habe.
Lightroom4.3 läuft alles prima.
Was muss ich noch tun?May I thought CS3 Camera Raw to version 4.6 supports only?
Have I said differently?
If you have decided to stick with an outdated version of Photoshop you have to accept that support for newer cameras will elude your similarily dated version of Camera Raw.
But the free current DNG Converter supports the same cameras as the most recent version of Camera Raw.
In any case you may want to post on the proper Forum. -
I can't open Icloud Photos.
I can't open Icloud Photos. It says It is preparing my library but it won't open even after waiting for hours. My storage isn't full. I've tried different browsers and I have turned my computer on and off.
iCloud doesn't work that way.
You take images on your iOS 5.1 devices and Photo Stream "pushes" the images via Wi-Fi connection to your other devices and computers.
You take a picture using your iPhone and it is sent to your computer or other iOS 5.1 devices. You can't view the images online unless you use iOS 5.1 version of iPhoto ($4.99) to create "Journals". Journals are Web based viewing. -
can't open my photo library after upgrading to iphoto 11. Is it possible to download iphoto 9.0.1 after installing '11. Have followed all the other instructions and am in a loop which doesn't allow me to access iphoto or my photos.
when iphoto wouldnt open we read the trouble shooting info and it said that we may have needed to download 9.0.1 if we had an older version. We obviously didn't download it before the upgrade and wondered if it would cause problems or indeed solve the problem if we downloaded it now!
When we try to open iphoto is says:
To open your library with this version of iphoto it first needs to be prepared
To prepare the library use the iphoto library upgrader available from Apple.
We have downloaded this twice now and it still sends us this message when we try to open iphoto. -
I have a G5 mac using ver 10.4.11 and a newer mac using ver 10.8.4 these are networked. using the new mac i looked up my my photo on the old mac. It then said you need to upgrade your library which it did. Now the old mac can not open the photos and say that I need to upgrade my I photo to a newer version. The old mac has no more support from apple in software update so I am not sure where I should go from here. can I use new soft ware with the old mac
The other part of the upgrade message was a warning that once you upgraded you would no longer be able to open the library with the old version which is exaclty what you did and what happened when you choose to continue
The iphoto library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iphoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process may take several minutes depending on the number of photos in the library. Cancel or upgrade.
So now your choices are to not use iPhoto with the previous version using it onky with the newer version, restore your backup from before you did this upgrade or purchase iPhoto Library Manager and use it to rebuild the library using the older version of iPhoto (instructions are on their web site) thereby downgrading it (without projects)

I just backed up my photos by copying my iPhoto Library onto an external drive. Now the Library on my MacBook won't open. I can only open the photos if the external is plugged in. How can I resolve this issue?
Exactly what did you do?
The correct steps are
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
My guess is that that you have not switched iphoto to use the external drive yet - opttion launch and select libary

I can not open my photo, opened in lightroom, in photoshop CS4. a plug-in camera raw xx is missing. Advice to update does not work. There is no plug-in in the map photoshop plug-ins.
This is expected. CS4 will never be able to open files from a current version of LR and a modern camera.

Can not open Events photos in iPhoto 9.5.1
can not open Events photos in iPhoto 9.5.1
We need detaoils
What does show for the ones that do not have the picture?
Is is an ! - if do
This indicates a disconnect between the Thumbnail and the original
this can be caused by two things
1 - User action deleting items from inside the iPhoto library - can be directly - can be from the All images list (never delete from there) - can be from running cleanup software like MacKeeer, CleanMac2 or other dangerous, defective software that improperly deletes or changes things in the iPhoto library - if you have done any of these things you must restore your backup from before you did them and damaged your iPhoto library - and I recommend getting rid of any "clean up software" ASAP (although being essentially MalWear it is not easy)
2 - corruption of the iPhoto library - If it is not #1 then Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - repair permissions and then rebuild your database

Why can't I can't open RAW photos (from an new canon eos 5.1) in Bridge (cs 5.1)- just get the logo, no thumbnail, works in Finder.
Ah ha!
At long last, do we now know the true identity of "Yammer"? Keith Nuttall?
Hope so. With all the experience and intelligence shown in Yammer's previous posts it would make total sense.
I for one cannot understand why people do not post under their real names. And I'm not prepared to say why. I'll let you guess.
If it is you Keith, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by letting the community know who you really are. It would give much more weight and authority to your posts for the casual forum participants who have not had a long-standing familiarity with your previous very insightful and helpful contributions.
Just my 2 cents. Don't care tuppence whether or not anyone disagrees with me. -
IPHOTO -I can't open my photos by clicking on them
I can't open my photos by clicking on them when using Iphoto although everything else seems to be working OK.
Any ideas??Try resetting the PS CC preferences and check if it's an issue with corrupt preferences : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776
Try to open PS CC in Plugin Disabled mode and check the same. For that Press Shift+PS CC icon and hit Yes.
Let me know if that helps.

Can't open RAW photos on elements 10 using windows XP. is there a solution?
i'm using a Nikon D3300 and can't open RAW photos on elements 10 using windows XP. none of the plugins i've tried worked.
please help. i really don't want to have to buy a new version of elements or a new computer.Hi,
Unfortunately the Nikon D3300 requires camera raw 8.4 which is not compatible with PSE 10.
Even worse, the DNG Converter 8.4 will not run on a XP or Vista comtuter.
I don't know if the software that came with the D3300 will run on the XP system but if it does, your only option would be to use it to convert the NEF files to TIF files and then PSE 10 will be able to use the TIF files.
I think that you really need to think about upgrading your system sooner than later.

Had to update to lightromm 4.4 for raw photos and now I can't open my photos
I had to update to LR 4.4 to edit raw photos and now I can't open my photos in order to edit them. Please help
Canon 70D requires Lightroom 5.2 or later. The raw files from this camera cannot be imported by Lightroom 4.4. You can however download the free Adobe DNG Converter version 8.6 and convert these RAWs to DNG which can be read by Lightroom 4.4.
