EOS T3 JPEGs wont open in photo viewer software

I am a beginner photographer and purchased a Rebel EOS T3.  I am having a reoccuring issue where about half my JPEGs will not open in any software I try.  Even the Canon software will not open them.  I was experimenting with a faster shutter speed to shoot my daughter playing basketball, and I think the files that wont open are after I changed from my 200 zoom to 50 mm prime.  I would like to salvage the JPEGs, but if I can't, at least figure out what is going on because I am losing memories.  I may abandon the camera if I can't find an answer. Thanks

Here are three activities from daily life that require about the same time and effort to learn to do adequately:
a)  Driving a car.
b)  Using a computer well enough to do anything that isn't totally pre-canned.
c)  Using a moderately serious camera well enough to get better results than one would get with a low-end point & shoot.
Most people understand that a) belongs on the list, because some governmental jurisdiction requires them to take a test to prove that they've acquired the necessary skills. But a sizable percentage of the population don't realize that b) and c) are on the list and naïvely expect computers and cameras to be as easy to use as an electric can opener or a coffee maker. It ain't so and probably never will be. Sometimes the best advice one can give is "Get used to it."

  • All Files Try to open with Photo Viewer

    I was downloading some pictures and when finished ,now all files try to open with photo viewer. (ie Word,Excel,Paint,just all files lised on the menu. If someone knows how to fix this pleas reply.

    Hi ObiWanKanobe,
    I recommend you check the Default Programs. Follow these steps:
    1. Click Start – input “default programs”(without quotation)
    2. Click Set your default programs.
    3. Choose Windows Photo Viewer in the left panel, then Choose defaults for this program.
    4. Make sure you don’t check other types of files, like doc and so on.
    Then check if the issue persists.

  • Bridge opens JPEG files in Windows Photo Viewer not Photoshop

    How do I tell Bridge to open my JPEG files in Photoshop and not Windows Photo Viewer? I see that Windows Photo Viewer is selected as the default in my preferences and I do not see Photoshop as an option. I do see COM Surrogate 6.1. I just upgraded from CS5 to CS6 yesterday and I am just noticing this issue. I never dealth with this problem with CS5. Any suggestions? Thank you all for the help.

    If you deleted CS5 after installing CS6 you are one of the unfortunate that also fouled up the file associations. 
    The safest way to restore function is to uninstall CS6, run the Adobe script cleaner and reinstall.
    There is a registry fix that I include as an option, but on vacation so can not find that references.
    Some have had succes with running CCleaner, but registry cleaners can cause some problems of their own if the delete "good files".

  • PE 12 organiser wont open, edit photo yes open

    win 7,  PE12 photoshop and premier element are install. Photoshop organiser wont open. I open it if I go in C/ program file 86/ adobe....but not directly on desktop.

    Does anything happen if you select a thumbnail in the Organizer and then click the Editor button on the bottom toolbar?
    Did you buy the download from Adobe or from a store?
    Do you have a desktop icon and what happens if you double click? Normally you should see both options; Organizer & Editor.
    What computer and operating system are you using?

    What version of iPhoto?

  • Iphoto wont open landscape photos

    All of my photos which are in "landscape" display in iphoto won't open.  I get a black and white ! mark.. Photos in portrait in iphoto are fine.  Can anyone tell me how to rectify this?

    It didn't delete the pictures you have. You created a new Library. Obviously this doesn't have the same content as the old library.
    As I say in my post above, this is a test. It tells us that iPhoto is working and the issue is with your old library. So, to try and fix that:
    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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    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. .

  • Apps wont open all photos album

    Since updating to the new software whenever I want to send a picture from my 'All Photos' album via whats app, imessage or upload to instagram or instacollage etc, my phone freezes.
    Any help with this would be great as it is really frustrating!
    I am up to date with all updates and on ios 8.2
    Thanks!

    I'm afraid you may need to wipe the device. 
    To perform a Security Wipe please follow the instructions below. Be sure and use BB Link to make a full backup before proceeding with the wipe:
    http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB33591
    Once the wipe is complete you can restore your backup.  However, keep in mind that data in the backup may be the source of the original problem and restoring it may restore the problem, as well. To alleviate this I recommend not restoring the Settings portion of the backup.

  • Bridge opens in Windows Photo Viewer

    This is a pain previous version opened directly into Photoshop, is this a bug can this be changed from Windows Viewer default to Photoshop

    I actually WANT my BMPs to open with Windows Photo Viewer, but they don't For some reason PNG files DO open with Windows Photo Viewer by default in Bridge, but BMPs open with Photoshop.
    The time to load photoshop is like loading a cannon to shoot a goldfish oftentimes when I just want to look at a picture quickly rather than edit it, sooo, I was wondering is there any way to change items TO use Windows Photo Viewer, since it's not listed as an option for anything but PNG?
    Of course, in the File Associations setting of Preferances, you can Browse for a new program to add, but it doesn't like the input of %SystemRoot%\System32\rundll32.exe "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Photo Viewer\PhotoViewer.dll", ImageView_Fullscreen %1 (where %1 is the filename) which is what Windows uses normally to open Windows Photo Viewer since it's part of a DLL rather than a separate program...According to a google of windows photo viewer location
    .... Yet, of course Bridge opens PNG files for me with Windows Photo Viewer, so there must be some way to add the option manually for BMP somehow if I can copy whatever set up it's using to open PNG files with it?
    Thank you for any help anyone

  • My iphoto wont open since i updated my mac, please help? it says i need to install an iphoto library upgrader which I have installed but still cant see my photos.

    my iphoto wont open since i updated my mac, please help? it says i need to install an iphoto library upgrader which I have installed but still cant see my photos.

    What version of iPhoto are you using? 9.6 is the current version.
    Do a backup.
    Quit the application.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
    Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
