Download to library ok.Trying to select get White circle with !t

Download to library ok.When I try to bring up the picture a white circle appears with !
Any ideas please?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/">iPhoto Library Manager</a> 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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

I recently purchased Foo Fighters Sonic Highways on iTunes. Where is the album artwork, liner notes and pictures? When purchasing/downloading entire album on iTunes, do you get this information with the purchase?

The album cover art should show on the album in the Music part of your library. For other pictures and/or notes, does the album description page in the store say that it's an iTunes LP (does it have an LP label against it in the store) ? If not then you will just get the tracks.

I have used Firefox for years on my Mac laptop for years, I tried to update to version 4 and now I have no Firefox and every time I download the the Firefox the emblem has a awhite circle with a cross through it, so I can't drag it to applications.

The support page is ridiculous, it assumes you already have Firefox and that the install went fine. I am having trouble with an update to Version 4. I have an ibook G4 running OS X. I have used Firefox for years. When I downloaded the update, the Firefox logo thing that you are supposed to drag to the Applications folder has a white circle with a line through it. I have rebooted many times and have updated all other software.

Hello,
I wouldn't trust any Firefox "update" from a non-Mozilla website. Sometimes, unofficial builds contain adware or malware. If you want to use Firefox for AOL do so at your own risk.

When i try to see some of my photos the photos appear and when i click on the individual photos I get a circle with an exclamation point. What's going on?

Apple dropped playback support for .swf formats in QuickTime almost ten years ago.
Adobe Flash Player is the only way to view them.

Photos from the Internet will not load correctly. I get white boxes with blue question marks inside. This has only been happening for the past 3 weeks so I'm not sure why it is happening.

Photos from the Internet will not load correctly. I get white boxes with blue question marks inside. This has only been happening for the past 3 weeks so I'm not sure why it is happening.

Yes - email & text work fine but when I use something like Google Images or search a blog with imbedded photos I get the empty white boxes with question marks. If I click the question mark it opens the photo but I can't possibly do that for EVERY image on EVERY page I search!?!?! I've rebooted the iPad & my wireless card several times but neither action helped. Have any clue what I should do now?

I get a circle with a slash when I hit f8, F9 or f10 to backlight keys

My keyboard back lighting doesn't work much but I reset PMU and PRAM then suddenly it worked. Now though, about an hour later, if I hit any of the keys I get a circle with a slash as if it is turned off, illegal, or not installed. Anybody know what it means? I have the backlight checked off in the energy manager.
I'm confused.
Also, the lower memory slot is kaput.
thanks,
Connie

I fixed it by putting the install disk in and verifying/repairing the disc and the permissions.
The memory slot was not repaired. I understand it was a problem with some powerbooks but the repair program ended in July 2008.

What happens if you try to Option-drag the library to the EHD? The same icon?
Make sure the EHD is formatted Mac OS X Extended (journaled) with Ownership set to be ignored:

Trying to type on a path (CS5) and get small circle with plus sign???

I am trying for the first time to type on a path that I have made. I go to the type tool, type one letter which never appears...but the small circle with a plus sign inside it appears right at that spot on the path. Would love to know what is happening...and how I resolve it. Have googled and searched my books to no avail!

I had been doing what you suggested...but in going back this morning to try it again, I discovered that the box for centered text was selected from an earlier project...and obviously that doesn't work on a path!
Thank you.

While performing Yosemite update this evening get a Circle with line thru it

When I came home today I noticed I had a pending Software Update (to Yosemite).
I applied the update and after downloading and installing the Yosemite it rebooted a few times.
During one of the reboots it froze and a black screen appeared with a Circle and a line running through the circle.
Now when I manually reboot my MacBook Pro it displays the Apple Logo and then displays this Circle with a line thru it and stops.
Was I suppose to have updated to this Yosemite? Why did it crash my MacBook?
Any assistance would be really appreciated.

I would be remise if I didn't post my solution to this issue which I toiled with for over 4 days. I too got this got this circle with a line through it after the first install, the second install after a restore from my Time Machine, the third install after I installed clean then tried to migrate my data from time capsule, and finally my fourth install after installing from a USB follow by a migration. Each of this took about 14 hours a piece as I have close to 1TB of data (gotta get rid of some stuff).
Finally I was convinced I could boot in SAFE mode, but even that didn't work but I was able to boot in Verbose mode(command-V). While watching it boot up I noticed an error that lead me to my final solution. I can't remember it exactly but it said something about PGPwde whole drive encryption. After racking my brain I finally remember I had installed PGP tools or something like that. I booted into recovery mode (command-R). Pulled up the console and followed these steps to remove PGP manually.

Keep in mind I had to find my data under the Volumes directory of the root drive. So instead of /Library it was /Volumes/<name of your hard drive>/Library. If the drive is not there you might have to mount it, but there are plenty of references on the internet on how to do this.
This did the trick and after a restart Yosemite came right up. Not sure if this is exactly the fix for everyone, but if you book in Verbose mode(Command-V) I would bet you will see whatever culprit is causing the issue.
Hope someone finds this useful.

My MacBook won't restart..only get a circle with line thru it..

My computer froze,so I tried to reboot it and when I go to start it,it gets like a 1/3 of the way thru the rebooting stage and then it's go to a grey screen and a circle with a line thru it comes up and nothing still works...please help!!!

Can you boot into your Recovery partition (holding down the command and R keys whilst booting)?
If not, try booting into Internet Recovery by holding down the command, option and R keys. EVENTUALLY you'll see a globe on screen and, after that, the Recovery screen.
If you're able to get to the Recovery screen by either method, open Disk Utility and see if your boot drive (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you've changed it) is shown in the column to the left. If it is, select it and click on the Verify button. If you get a message in red text that your disk needs to be repaired, click on the Repair button. If the drive can be repaired, you'll get a great text message telling you that the drive now appears to be OK - you should be able to just restart if everything fixed on the drive. If the drive can't be repaired, however, you'll get a red text message telling you that the drive cannot be repaired.
If the disk can't be repaired, you'll just have to purchase and install a new disk.
Call back,

I get white screen with logo after update OS 10.6.6

Please help!

Try booting from your install disc again. Make sure that error was corrected.
Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
(In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first from the installer menu)
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your startup disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. Make sure there is always 15% free space.

Cannot start up, get Grey circle with slash through it

My 12" gets hung up at grey start up screen, i have tried to reboot from 10.3 disk and holding option key, the screen then goes to a "not allowed" grey circle with slash through it. No clue what to do. HELP
thank you peter

Hello Again peter,
As I asked HERE,
Why are you using the "10.3 disk", and not the Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD?
As the computer specs, in your Above Post, re displayed as: G4 PowerBook 12" Mac OS X (10.4.4).
Here's an additional KB Article You see a blank, gray screen, to review.

Start up problems, get the circle with slash symbol then hangs forever

I did a bad thing, I downloaded some software from the Internet. It was from Smith Micro. After the first re-start after installing, I had start-up problems with the "not allowed symbol" (a circle with a slash through it) coming after the Apple symbol then hanging forever.
The Smith-Micro programs I down loaded were Spring Clean-up and Internet Clean-up. I have not used either program, just installed them.
I have run Disk Utilities from my start-up disk, everything tested out perfectly. Tried a Safe Boot, computer started up but I couldn't do anything (useless for me). Tried to Zap P-RAM, didn't work. Tried booting in target mode, got a weird symbol ( can't even explain this one) and it just hung there. Unconditional reboot works, and I can use the computer like normal. Does the unconditional boot mess anything up. Should I use it from now on?
I used the included uninstaller for both Spring Cleaning and Internet Clean-up, the computer still won't start-up normally.

There's hardly any circumstance that requires the so-called "clean" install; it's a windoze-centric thing. Just reinstall, ensure that fixed the issue, then run Software Update. Snow Leopard's installer only replaces the OS components and basic Apple apps, such as TextEdit, Mail, Safari, Terminal, and Calculator, leaving *everything else* in place. In the future, always make a restorable backup before installing new stuff.
