I have a large number of photos on 1.44MB discs. Quicktime flags the files as corrupted but they open with the on board program.  The file has a quicktime xtension.

I have a lot of 1.44MB disks with pictures.  When I tried to open them I got a message that Quick Time was not properly installed. I uninstalled and reinstalled Quick Time as instructed.  Then I got a message that Windows Picture and Fax Viewer was missing,  I corrected that and now get a message that the picture files are corrupted.  But if I use the program that is on the disk, the pictures appear just fine.  Any thoughts as to what is going on?  The file structure on the disc identifies the pictures with a Quick Time icon and as Type PICT.  The properties window shows a .pic extension.  Any thoughts on how I can get this to open in an XP Pro or Vista PC?

Use the on board viewer program to export the file as bitmap or jpg and work with that.

  • I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    If I understand you correctly, when you enter a date in the Adjust Date and Time window, the picture does not update with the date you enter.  If that is the case then something is wrong with iPhoto or your perhaps your library.
    How large a date change are you putting in?  iPhoto currently has an issue with date changes beyond about 60 years at a time.  If the difference between the current date on the image and the date you are entering is beyond that range that may explain why this is not working.
    If that is not the case:
    Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.iphoto
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
    ---NOTE: to get to the "home > library" hold down option on the keyboard and click on "Go" > "Library" while in the Finder.
    Let me know the results.

  • I have a large number of photos I'd like to delete from my ipad 2 however from reading previous comments it seems I have to unsync from the original source computer. I'm in another country now and don't have access to it.  Is there another way?

    You should be able to do this via the iPad directly.  Open the Photos application and the forward arrow, then select all of the photos you want to delete and click the red delete button.

  • .mp3 files that used to play now say 'the file is corrupt' but they play fine in google crome. Do you have problems with your default mp3 player?

    I've posted a number of mp3 file links on our website. All have been functioning and playing well until this week, they are no longer playing when clicked on. The new tab opens, thinks, then says that the "video cannot be played because the file is corrupt". These files are able to be downloaded and played from individual computers and will play fine in other browsers - such as Google Chrome.
    Not sure if there is an issue with Firefox default mp3 player?

    I assume that this is because of the way the MP3 file is encoded.
    Sample rate: 22050 Hz
    Bitrate: 32 kb/s
    If I open the file in a tab then I see a media player, but inspecting the page source shows a video tag with no source attribute, so Firefox seems to have a problem with decoding the media header despite the audio/mpeg content type.
    I don't know what to do about this apart from playing the file in an external player or play the file via an object or embed tag to make Firefox use a plugin.
    Using a bookmarklet like this to force an audio tag doesn't work as well:
    <pre><nowiki>data:text/html,<audio src="%S" controls>
    </nowiki></pre>

  • Selecting large number of photos

    I have recently installed ilife 08. When I am in an event and want to select a large number of photos, I click on the first one and try to scroll down. When I stop scrolling, the screen jumps back to the first photo, making it very hard to select them all. Anyone else encountered this and know why?

    Usually I find that when I want new events the photos I want to use are at the end of the event -- if you start up from the bottom until you find the first photo you want in the new event select it and click split -- that photo and all below it will now be in a new untittled event. You can continue on up the event and do this multiple times if needed.
    If this does not do it select some of the photos you want in the new event and click new event. This will give you a new event with some photos in it - then go back to the original event and select more photos and cut them then paste them into the new event - repeat as necessary to complete the "move"

  • Help in sharing a large number of photos?

    I am looking for a reasonably quick way of sharing a large number of photos with other members of my church as well as on other occasions family and friends.
    The photos are all loaded onto my iPad at their original resolution and are high quality .jpegs taken with a Nikon DSLR (D7000).
    I would prefer to use something "cloud" based rather than a commercial enterprise if possible but don't know how to do it.
    Can someone give me some suggestions?  I am a long time PC user and am pretty adept at Windows but a stymied by the Apple system, particularly my inability, seemingly to really delete individual photos without finding them all over again somewhere else on the iPad.  Delete "everywhere" seems not to be quite accurate to describe what happens.
    Thanks for helping me out.

    Try sharing it via photostream. It makes a link so people with non iOS devices can view them all you do is forware it to their emails........
    heres a link for photstream.  Good luck!
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4379
    Follow the steps below to create a shared photo stream. Note that you cannot share all the photos in My Photo Stream at one time. However, you can select images from it to create a shared photo stream.
    On your device using iOS 6:
    From the Home screen, tap Photos.
    Tap the Photo Stream tab. (Note: You can also share images from your Camera Roll or an album in your Camera Roll. Tap the Albums tab, then tap Camera Roll or an Album. Continue with steps 4-7 below.)
    Tap My Photo Stream, then tap Edit. 
    Tap each photo you'd like to add to the shared photo stream. A check mark will appear on selected photos. Tap Share.
    Tap Photo Stream. (If this is not your first shared photo stream, you'll need to select New Photo Stream from the Add to a Photo Stream list.)
    Enter the email addresses of the people with whom you'd like to share this new photo stream. Type in a name for your photo stream. To share this photo stream on iCloud.com, move the Public Website slider to the ON position. If you will be sharing your stream with someone who does not have an iCloud account, you will need to make the stream public. People without an iCloud account can view the stream in a web browser. Tap Next.
    Optionally, you can add a comment for your new stream to introduce it. Tap Post.
    To share a Stream with someone who wishes to view it from a web browser, or to post a shared photo stream to Facebook or Twitter:
    Find the name of the shared photo stream from your list of photo streams and tap the blue arrow on your iPhone or iPod Touch. Tap Edit on your iPad, then tap the name of the shared photo stream.
    Tap Share Link.
    To share with Facebook or Twitter, Tap either Facebook or Twitter, and tap Post.
    To send the link in a message or email, tap Message or Email.
    You can also opt to tap the Copy a link URL so that you can post it elsewhere.

  • Problems syncing large number of photos while choosing all photos option

    I have 17,800 photos and have experienced problems with trying to sync in iTunes since release day 1.
    If I choose to sync using the all photos option, the iPad will reboot during synch and appears to finish. Ipad will become unresponsive and hang with the apple logo on screen and a hard reset will then be required.
    Then when trying to launch photo app in iPad it displays "updating library" for a minute or 2 and then photo app crashes back to home screen.
    Have tried many options in trying to solve this including restore iPad software, deleting photo cache in iTunes, rebuilding iTunes library, etc.
    Only solution I have found was to break down my 17,800 photos into events and choose to synch events instead of the all photos option and that works, getting all 17,800 photos into iPad. Photos take about 5.8 gb of storage.
    There is definitely a problem with iTunes here in synching large number of photos using the all photos option and I have reported this to AppleCare support via two support calls. There does not appear to be a awareness of this issue in tech supports knowledge base and I am surprised to that there are not a large number of incidents reported as there are a few discussions started here on the issues of photo sync.
    Hopefully this post will help others with the same issue.

    Solved problem of synching iPad with desktop containing large photo library (20,000 photos): In summary, solution was to rename, copy and live iPHoto Library to XHD and reduce size of library on home (desktop) drive.
    In the home directory, rename "iPhoto Library" to "iPhoto Global" (or any other name you want), and copy into an external hard drive via simple drag and drop method.
    Then, go back to the newly renamed iPhoto Global and rename it again, to iPhoto 2010. Now, open iPhoto by holding down the Alt/Option key and opening iPhoto. This provides option to choose library iPhoto 2010. Open the library, and eliminate every photo before 2010. This got us down to a few thousand photos and a much smaller library. Synch this smaller library with the iPad.
    Finally, I suggest downloading a program "iPhoto Library Manager" and using this to organize and access the two libraries you now have (which could be 2, 10 or however many different libraries you want to use.) The iPhoto program doesn't want you to naturally have more than one library, but a download called iPhoto Library Manager allows user to segregate libraries for different purposes (eg. personal, work, 2008, 2009, etc.). Google iPhoto Library Manager, download, and look for links to video tutorials which were very helpful.
    I did not experience any problems w/ iPhoto sequencing so can't address that concern.
    Good luck!

    You don't need iTunes for that. Simply connect the iPhone to the PC where it will be recognized as a camera. You can then select the photos you wish to transfer, transfer them, and delete them.

    Hi jybravo70, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you may be experiencing issues on your non iOS 8 devices because iOS 8 is required to set up or join a Family Sharing group.
    The following information is located in the print at the bottom of the article. 
    Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
    Family Sharing requires a personal Apple ID signed in to iCloud and iTunes. Music, movies, TV shows, and books can be downloaded on up to 10 devices per account, five of which can be computers. iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are required to set up or join a Family Sharing group and are recommended for full functionality. Not all content is eligible for Family Sharing.
    Have a great day, 
    Joe

  • I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files (not i-tunes purchases) which I just can't get into my i-tunes library. File converters don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

    I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files which I can't get into i-tunes. When the library was in Windows, i-tunes would convert the files automatically, but this doesn't happen now. I've downloaded a couple of file converters, but these don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

    iTunes for Windows (but not iTunes for Mac) can import and convert unprotected WMA tracks. If the tracks are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management) then it will not accept them.
    One option would be to install iTunes on your PC, do the conversion, and then transfer the converted tracks from iTunes on your PC to iTunes on your Mac.

  • Hi, I have a large number of products in one column and prices of the products in another. Most prices are different. I want to know if it is possible to increase all of the prices by 5% or 10% etc. Hope someone can help. From Stiffy

    Hi, This is my first time I hope someone can help.
    I am working with numbers and I have a large number of products in one column and the relevent prices in another. All the prices are different and I want to increase the price of everything by 5% or 10% etc. Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance
    Stiffy123

    Ad a new, temporary column (or one you can hide when not using). Let's say the current Prices are in column C and the new column is D.
    you can inflate the prices in column C by 5% by entering the formula in the first cell of column D as:
    =C2*105%
    likes this:
    to fill down, select D2, then copy, then select the D3 thru the end of the column, then paste.  Now select C2 thru the end of column C, now paste over the existing values using the menu item "Edit > Paste Values"
    you can now hide column D until you need to use it again.

  • I have a large number of PDFs documents stored on a windows pcthat I would like to access on my iPad mini even when not cBooking referenceonnected to a network.

    i have a large number of PDFs documents stored on a windows pc that I would like to access on my iPad mini even when not connected  to a network. Does anyone know a solution. Eg maybe card reader and a app.

    Those devices have mixed results depending on the application. If the application does not support the device, then you are out of luck. There is no file manager in IOS to allow you to move files between folders because there are no folders that you can access. An app has to specifically support a storage location to access files.
    It's not that bad. The app has to have the ability to accept data from another app.  The latest memory dongles come with an ios app to access the external storage.  You then transfer the pdf from dongle's app to your app.  If your app can accept data from dropbox, it will be able to accept data from the memory dongle app.
