Images being arbitrarily pulled from cache?

Recently I've been having trouble with images and applications. Whenever I transfer an image through iChat, say soomething taken with Photo Booth, it arbitrarily selects a recently viewed image rather than the image that was specified for transfer; once this incorrect image has been sent, no matter what I look at afterword and what I try to send, it's always that same wrong picture.
Similarly, when using a conversion tool recently, rather than putting an error image up, it displayed a picture I had viewed online early that day but that I had not downloaded; it existed only in my browser's cache.
What on Earth is going on and what can be done to rectify the issue?

HI,
It does seem a bit strange that a pic that only exists on your computer in the Browser's cache is showing upon in another app.
I could see a case where all the photos stored in the PhotoBooth folder were in fact the same pic or even different pics have somehow ended up with the same icon.
I would start with launching Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities) and using the First Aid tab then Repairing Permissions.
Some say it is less effective than it used to be  but I think it would make an effective starting place with this.
I would would follow  that with a PRAM reset.
Shut down the computer.
Restart it holding down Apple/CMD ( or ⌘)+ALT( ⌥)+P+R Keys until you have heard three Start Up Bongs.
If you have a second computer I would try logging in to this one and accessing the pictures  and see if they open correctly on the second computer.
(Alternatively put this one in Target Disk Mode with another computer).

  • When I close Firefox and re-open it, all previously cached images are NOT loaded from cache. Why?

    I have a website. Google recommended page-speed and I had previously installed fire-bug. I open Firefox and inspect my website - the home page loads in approx 2 seconds. I may follow a variety of links and all images ( expiry life of 3 months ), css and js files ( expiry life 1 hour ) are cached so that each screen loaded takes less time. If I close firefox get on with other work and then re-open it, its like the images were never cached - what's the point of caching if its ignored?

    Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox or use cleanup software that clears session data (sessionstore.js)

  • Recieved images being auto-deleted from history?

    I'm not sure why, but when a friend in any chat (group or private) sends an image lately, I've been getting this:  I don't get to see them, it just instantly pops up that way.And this issue is DESPITE this:  I can't remember any changes I've made recently that could have caused this except for telling IE to block Skype cookies - but I have not only removed skype from the block list, but also entirely reset IE's settings just in case and unfortunately this has not remidied the problem.  I've already attached a current DirectX diagnostics tool txt (zipped) if that helps. Thanks in advance X~X Edit: Also I am completely capable of SENDING images, and my own images show up for me within skype. I just can't recieve them, apparently. 

    Windows 8.1, Skype for Desktop version 7.7.0.103, and it's happening no matter who sends me an image, as far as I'm aware. I've had at least five different contacts attempt to send me images in private chats, and a few others have sent images in group chats - all of which returned the same error.

    How Do i create a list that will show in a dropdown box with the list being pulled from another tab and not the cell data format junk?
    I currently run OS X 10.10.1
    Now i have been trying to work on this for a while now and what i want to do should be simple but its apparently not.
    Here is an example of what i want to happen.
    I will have 2 tabs: Contact | Sales
    Now Contacts will have the list of names and various information about a customer, While Sales will have one drop-down box for each Cell Row that will show the names of the person in tab contacts
    for what i am wanting to do i cant use the data format pop-up menu because the list is edited everyday several times a day.
    Now how do i do this, Excel can do this so how can numbers do it?

  • Need help with adding lightbox feature to images pulled from .js

    Hello,
    I've been attempting to add a lightbox to separate images (no group) in a responsive one page portfolio template. Unfortunately I'm not savy with this topic.
    The template came with a hover action to apply what I would believe to be a light box image but no other documentation on how to add it to the images. I've looked everywhere.
    The portfolio gallery is built in .js Here is some code The image code you see is just copied over and over to add images.
    BTW - Lightbox mxp only allows you to add to an image when clicked on in the properties. These images are pulled from .js

  • Why are images being copied from a linked library that aren't modified

    I'm trying out the linked library feature and that is my preffered way of using iPhoto but I notice that many images that haven't been modified in iPhoto are being copied as full res modified images. My camera Nikon D2x supports auto rotation of verticle images which keeps me from having to manualy rotate these images. I understand that when I modify an image using iPhoto's tools that a full res image will be copied into a modified folder but why are images that have simply been tagged in camera as needing rotation being copied as well. Vertical images account for at least half of all images I shoot and diplaying them properly should be a look at exif or other metadata and applying rotation but since they are images straight from camera they shouldn't show as modified. Anyone have experience or suggestions on how to avoid having auto rotated images show as modified?

    blinden:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I ran into that but in a different way. I had all of my image files in folders on a second HD and used another application to manage them. I decided to use iPhoto's alias method to work with the same files. I got a lot of files that were copied over as modified. Have no idea why. I ended up doing global revert to Original several times, watching the Modified folder via the Finder, until it became empty. I then closed iPhoto, dragged the Modified folder to the trash and then launched iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and rebuild the library using the first three options. That worked and got me a pristine library.
    I had not figured out why that happened. I've had the auto-rotate turned off for about a year now. Had I know what was causing it I could have checked to see if all of those bogus modified files occurred before I had turned off that option in the camera. I'm guessing now that that's what I would have found. Thanks for the info.

  • Prevent SVG image from caching

    Hi
    I am working on an assignment in which I have to generate an SVG image. The SVG image is dynamically created depending on the users input.
    Unfortunatly the image seems te cache in Internet Explorer. And therefor the user can not see the changes he/she made.
    I can prevent the page from caching but not the image. I've tried META tags, response.setHeader etc. but it does not work
    Can anybody tell me how to prevent IE from caching an image?
    I am using NetBeans 3.6, Apache Tomcat 5.1 and IE
    Thanx for you're help

    The browser caches by URL. You may be able to prevent the browser from using the cahed image by changing the url. Try adding a timestamp to the url.
    So when you create you page (it will have to be a jsp) instead of using an image tag like:
    <img src="/images/myImage.svg">
    Use something like:
    <img src="/images/myImage.svg?time=123456789">
    where the time value is just the return of date.getTime().

  • Number of records being pulled from OLAP/ SQL in BPC 5.1

    Hello BPC gurus,
                         We are experience performance issues with EVDRE.basically the report errors out and the error log states " Decompressing request failed". We are in BPC 5.1
           We were trying to understand how many number of records the evdre is pulling from from OLAP / database  so that we can look into some fine tuning opportunities of the EVDRE. 
          In the BI world we have RSRT where in which we can view the number of records from database, number of records transferred. Is there any such feature in BPC, where in which we can information on record counts.
    We have turned on the error logs , but none of them give us an idea of the record count.
    Appreciate your help in advance.
    Thanks

    Hi Sorin,
                   Thank you very much for getting to me on my clarificaiton on the record count. As per your suggestion, we have already looked into this OSS note, and changed the entries in the table. After making these changes, the queries that normally execute in 1 min, now take 30 minutes to complete. Believe this was the observation also in some of the threads related to this issue. 
    You had mentioned that there might be an issue with the communication between application server  and BPC Client. or SQE generating MDX query.  Can you please give us some pointers on how to investigate this. Have turned on error logs evdataserver_debug.txt & EVDATASERVER_TRACE.txt on the file server,  but i believe there is an OSS note 1311019, that talks about these logs not workign with SP9.
    If you can guide us in the folllowing that would be helpful
    1  how to bebug this issue that we are currently facing.
    2. How does the concept of compressing / decompressing work in BPC.

  • Files pulling from same folder show up differently when uploaded to my site

    When I publish my html files on Adobe muse and I launch them from my file folder, they look great, but when I try to access them from my domain, the images are skewed and it looks awful but it is being pulled from the same location.
    I have published this site many times before and never had this problem.
    What is going wrong?

    I upgraded to the latest Muse version and after I republished I did not have a problem, maybe my computer was no longer compatible with the old one?
    In any event, it is working now. Thank you for your quick response. I appreciate it very much

  • New files being overwritten by FTP cache

    I have Dreamweaver set up to connect to my ftp server; there are about 100 sites in my /sites/ directory that I access to make changes to.
    On one site, whenever I open a file and edit it, all of the related files on the server are overwritten with old files being pulled from *somewhere* when I save the file.
    I'm guessing Dreamweaver has a cache of files from the FTP connection that it's pulling from; my question: How do I either a) disable caching or b) update the local files?
    And telling me to set each individual site up in DW is not helpful - there are just too many sites, that's why I use the FTP connection to pull the files I need directly.

  • Inserting Image into BLOB field from URL

    Is it possible to insert an image into a BLOB field from a URL? I don't have access to the filesystem on the server and I have a page that uses PL/PDF to generate dynamic PDF files from data I pull from the database. I would like to include my companies official header with logo on the top of the PDFs I generate and need to somehow get the image which I currently have uploaded to the images section in Application Express and can access from the "Shared Components => Images" section of the Application Builder. I just want to be able to either query whatever table holds those images or copy the image I need to a blob field in one of my tables so I can use it in my PDF document.
    The other alternative (which is what I first mentioned above) would be to try and perform an insert into the BLOB field in my table but the location of the image file would be like "http://www.myportal.com:7777/pls/htmldb/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=1234567&p_flow_id=111&p_fname=myimage.jpg".
    Is this possible? If not, what can I do?
    Thanks in advance.

    The reason why I am asking this question in this forum is two-fold:
    1. I am using Application Express (AE).
    2. Since I am using AE all images that I upload to my workspace are stored in a table in a database and not as an actual file in a directory structure like in Windows etc. This being the case, I can't ever reference any of the files that I upload to my workspace in order to insert them into my BLOB field unless I know their physical location on disk (which of course does not exist b/c they are stored in the AE database somewhere). If I knew AE's database and table structure I could do a "select into ..." from whatever table stores my uploaded images and save those images to my own custom table in my BLOB field.

    (The phone hold system at Apple should really get an iPod.)
    I eventually spoke with CPU Senior Advisor, J.T. Thornton, and I asked him to explain which mandatory feature was added to the 2007 iMacs that wasn’t present in the 2006 models. He pulled up the technical specifications of the 2006 iMac next to the 2007 iMac, and even he was unable to identify what changed in 2007 that would cause the incompatibility. He went on to explain that it was probably an algorithm that caused my Mac to be incompatible.
    I asked (somewhat facetiously) if the algorithm was if build year<2007 then FAIL, and then to my surprise, he agreed with me.
    Why isn't there a smarter algorithm to determine compatibility? I can clearly see that my system exceeds the minimum system requirements, with the exception being, of course, the year it was built.

    But if you do remember that your needs may not have changed, but technology has. 32 bit machines are vintage now, they will not run moderns operating systems. So unless Mavericks has something that you must have don't upgrade. And if you do, a new Mac will be needed.
    $1199 divided by 8 years is a cost of about $3 a week, a pretty good rate for a machine that works as well as it did 8 years ago.
