Images is corrupt, can open but channels are messed up

I have some jpg's that have been corrupted. I think it happened while transferring from one mac to another via cat 5 line. (although I am not entirely sure that is where they are corrupted, still investigating). I have spent hours looking for a solution. I have found several software programs that'll recover images from a memory card (for example PhotoRescue) but have yet to find something that will let me fix one's that I CAN open.
The images opens in preview, but seams to be "sheared" and/or have discoloration (sometimes there are red streaks, other times it looks as if I changed the levels on half the image). Furthermore, the images are inconsistent in error. I may open it once, and it's red on the right side, another time in green in the middle. I was even able to "recover" a few by opening them up in various programs...Safari opened one up ok and I was able to "save as..." and change the name. PLEASE HELP!!!

UPDATE: Last night, I was going through my images and they were all FINE!!! This leads me to the conclusion, that the images were not corrupted while transferring, rather, something is seriously up with my g4 (desktop)! I spent the whole night backing-up, 'cause who knows what will happen tomorrow! So now, instead of looking for answering about 'fixin my pics,' can anyone tell me what is up? Here is a little history:
I recently installed an extra 512mb of Memory: pc2700, as specified. I also have used the same EXACT type of Memory, including brand (ultra) before-with no problems.
I have NOT installed any 'unusual' programs. In fact the computer in question is not currently hooked up to the net. Running OS X 10.4.8.
One final thought-when the images in question were opened (when they were corrupted), I DID NOT save. However, when I put them onto a disk AND transferred them to a thumb drive, the errors came along with them (those images are staying corrupted), even though the originals are NOW fine.
Finally, I have been plagued with a screen that reads something along the lines of "You must restart you computer" (the screen in a black transparent box white text, with about 5 different languages, presumingly saying they same thing...). This has happened twice in the past two weeks (after RAM was installed, but not sure if problems are related).
So, what is going on-is it the memory? Is it the quartz filter? Is it hardware or software related???
Grrrrr!!

  • When opening my home page  or safari icons, they open but they are shaded and don't work, it's like they are frozen. I can tap on google and the keyboard come up but it won't search. Any ideas how to fix this?

    Hello,
    I am a new Ipad2 user and have a problem that I'm not sure what to do. When I try to open my homepage I created or the Safari icon, it opens fine, but they don't work. The page is shaded, does not scroll and is locked up. I can tap google and a keyboard come up and I can search but the results are shaded and are frozen(does not scroll). Does anybody know whats going on? I appreciate your help.
    Thanks

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Unable to save images in certain directories/folders; but properties are fine.

    Linux, FF 3.6.17 under Ubuntu
    When I attempt to save images embedded in a webpage by right-click->"Save Image As...", the result depends on the directory in which I attempt to save. In some directories, I get a Download Error message that reads "....could not be saved, because you cannot change the contents of that folder. Change the folder properties and try again, or try saving in a different location." The directory mode (permissions) are just fine. Saving the file in my normal Downloads directory and then moving the file by hand in a terminal window works fine as well. Disabling all add-ons had no effect. Running in safe-mode had no effect.
    Investigating this further, I appear to generate this error message when I try to save the image to a directory located on a different file system than the one on which my homedir and default downloads directory are based; this is true regardless of whether I navigate the file browser to that directory on another file system and try to save, or whether there's a symbolic link to that other file system's directory in my homedir. Attempts to save to directories on the same file system as my homedir/default downloads dir work just fine.
    Any advice here? Thanks.

    I'm not sure if it sounds the same or not, but it sure doesn't sound "normal," but I don't work much with network-stored images and other users who might have linked to them. As far as I know there is nothing in link in ID that would cause it to appear to be open, but as I see inthe other thread I once had the problem myself, so who knows.
    Are you patched to 6.0.6? I don't see anything in the release notes specifically related to the can't save problem, but there were a number of image and link related fixes.

  • Photoshop file corrupted, can open it but it only shows lines, preview looks just fine

    Dear fellow photoshop users,
    I got a serious problem.
    today I had opened my photoshop file which I was coloring ( a comic page) I allready spend 3days on this comic and I just don't wanne start over .
    I was working on it in CS6,
    As friends suggested I had opened it aswell in CS5 to try if it works there but no it didn't. I also placed it in AI, but sadly again the ugly line picture shows up .
    Can someone help me?
    Thank you soo much

    The preview is stored separately.
    Yes, the file is corrupted -- you need to check your disk for other problems.
    No, it is not likely to be recoverable.

  • I click on a link inside an email and it won't open so I can print the coupon, response is http error 400 or I have it blocked. Others in my area aren't having any problems with the same link opening but they are using IE. What's up with Firefox?

    gohollywood.com, register, message came back from Hollywood Insider with a link to click on to "Download Coupon". Click on link and you should get the coupon and you print it out. All my friends have done it but I can't. I get various error messages including : "HTTP error 400 - the request is badly formed".... or you have a blocker set.....
    Unless it is a Gmail/Firefox blocker or firewall, I don't have anything set up as a blocker on my email. Had a few friends go in my account on their computers and they had the same thing happen. However when they go in under their names they get to the link with no problems. HELP.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Why on two computers, ArialNarrowBold is missing (adminstrator can open; but not non-administrators)

    I have two odd and frustrating problems involving only two DELL desktops that for the most part only Freelancers use.
    Both computers have CS2.  When an ai.file tries to open up, i get the following msg: "FONT PROBLEMS, ArialNarrowBold: Default Font Substituted for Missing Font." 
    Recently, when i had an employee sit at one of these computers, i had him try to open up an ai.file using his log in, and he got the message too; as does any freelancer using freelancer login ID at these two computers...no other computer in our studio has this issue.
    Our outsourced IT company has done as much as they can e.g. make sure fonts are not restricted, etc...but everything is ok
    The second odd problem is that when an Administrator logs on with Adm rights, the msg does not appear.
    I have unistalled CS2; reinstalled, and the same msg appears.
    Adobe Tech support said they do not support CS2 and told me to try the forum..so i am...i hope somone has an answer or insight to why this is happening.
    thank you - hope this made sense to someone out there!

    It sounds like the permissions and ownership for users other than administrator is set to read only. It could simply be the folder that arial is in a higher directory or perhaps the font itself you can go to the top directory and mark it as read write for each account and have that apply to all directories below.
    Directory is a folder or a volume.
    On a Mac this is fairly easy if you have administrative privileges.
    On the Windows side you will have to get that info from one of the Windows person but it is more manual and a bit more difficult.

  • ITunes won't open, but there are no error messages

    top fixes for a new iTunes install/upgrade are
    - turning off security software such as Norton before the install as Apple suggests
    - installing QuickTime standalone, not regular

    - setting up Norton to allow iTunes
    - scanning for malware with ewido (Free at www.ewido.net/en/)
    - last but not least, using MSCONFIG to find Windows conflicts

  • I have just rearranged my app icons on my iPad.  I put one at the very end of the last page and an icon disappeared to make room for it.  Where has it gone, can I get it back. The app is still in my App Store and can open but no icon on my iPad or is my e

    How do I re-estate an app icon that has disappeared from the very last page of my icons because I in effect, pushed it away?

    Thanks for your help
    You are correct, in settings I can gain access to my apparent.
    What I went on to do was "reset" my app screen in settings and all my apps came back on the home pages.
    I understand that we only have twelve home pages but you can make files that contain many files on the home page by superimposing file icons while in file moving mode.
    Thanks so much for your help

  • RH 10 - chm opens but topics are not displaying

    Hi,
    I generated a chm file, and save it on our network drive for others to open and review. When they open it, the topics are not displaying. Should it work that way? Should the chm be on my local machine for it to display the topics properly?
    Thanks in advance!

    Are you using Chrome? Try opening it in MSIE and see if it opens properly. From my experience the Chrome bug seems to be fixed – but perhaps not?

  • Applications are open, but windows are not showing up!

    This has started happening recently. I first noticed this with iTunes but it's started happening with TextEdit as well.
    These applications will be open and functioning correctly, and then all of a sudden, the window disappears. I can see the application is open in my menu bar and in my dock. In TextEdit for example, I would go to new, and then nothing will happen. I can close these applications and reopen them, but no window shows up. In order to fix this problem, I have to restart my computer, but this only solves the problem for a few hours.

    Yes, sorry. Even though I had Spaces disabled, it's like it was enabled somehow. I fixed it by opening up System Preferences and taking out all of the applications in the application assignment window.
    What is weird is the enable spaces checkbox was unchecked, but the applications were acting like they were being put into another space and not switching to that space. This is a bug that Apple really needs to fix.

  • [TV@Master] Not all availabe channels are detected

    A few weeks ago I bought the TV@nywhere master card. I downloaded the driver from this forum and MSIVPS.
    I already recorded some programs and movies and burned to DVD. In my experience this works best using WinAvi. When I use WinDVDvreator, sometimes the sound gets behind after burning to DVD, although the original file playes ok on the PC.
    The remote control works fine when you install MSIPVS after installing WinDVDcreator. The other way round it does not work. Then the Wincinema manager is set incorrectly (I suppose).   
    Altough the card is working I still have some problems:
    - I attached the Cable, but channels are only found setting the software to Antenna, 
    - Not all channels are found. I live in the Netherlands. The 2 main Dutch channels are not detected, many other channels are. When trying Christv it found these channels, so I suppose it is a software problem. Maybe something to do with the frequency range, but this cannot be adjeusted in MSIVPS? Does anyone have a solution? I is very annoing not being able to receive all channels.       
    After installing the beta versions of the driver and MSIPVS3, it appeared that some channels are detected in antenna mode and some channels are detected in cable mode. Why not all channels in cable mode?
    Is there something to adjust in order to fix this?

    jaksun5,
    have you searched or browsed through this forum to see if your problem has been solved?
    if you cannot find an answer you should have started your own thread, giving as much information about your system (including your location, local TV standard and connection) and your problem, and what steps you have already taken to remedy this. at the moment your post makes you sound lazy (which i'm sure you may not be) by expecting others to find solution for you. by demonstrating what you have already attempted in order to solve problem, other users will be more willing to help you
    if no answer then becomes apparent, you should contact your local MSI support office, to see if they can assist you. who knows, you might get a solution off them, if so, then post back here. in future, someone may have your same problem. by doing all the above steps, they will come to your thread, with your solution, and you will have helped someone down the line
    How to contact MSI.
    good luck!
