Images won't saty rotated

On several occasiosn I have reviewed a large group of images and corrected their rotation using the arrows ot the bottom of their boxes in Grid view. However, I've discovered that when reopening the collection, they have reverted to their original orientation. I'm obviously doing something wrong, but don't know what.
I'd really appreciate help.
Many thanks!

I had the same problem. It seems the scripts that control the transfer of images from LR to Photoshop got deleted or messed up. The fix I found on the LR forum was as follows:
This solution allows you to run a repair installation without uninstalling Photoshop CC 2014. If you've already uninstalled Photoshop CC 2014, install it from the Apps tab of the Creative Cloud desktop application.
Open the Creative Cloud desktop application.
Select the Apps tab.
Scroll down (if necessary) until the Find New Apps section displays.
On the same line as Find New Apps, select Filters & Versions > Previous Version.
Click the Install button next to Photoshop and select CC 2014.
Click Yes, install this version.
Once I did this, the interaction between LR and PS CC 2014 started working again. I did notice that Photoshop showed up as needing to be updated in the Adobe CC application so I just clicked on the update button and after a few minutes photoshop had been updated. The importing function still works so I think everything is OK.
Not sure if this was part of the problem, but after updating the PS CC 2014 application the first time, I uninstalled the original PS CC application as I didn't need it anymore. I'm thinking that may have caused the scripts to be uninstalled along with the PS CC application. Rerunning the installation put things back to normal.
Hope this helps.

Screen images won't rotate when I rotate phone

Screen images won't rotate when I rotate phone

It depends on what image you are referring to. Not everything will rotate on the phone, the home screen being one of them. Check to see if Orientation lock is on, it will display a small lock and circular symbol near the battery icon. It is controlled in Control Center. Swipe upwards from the bottom of the screen and Orientation lock is the icon on the far right side of the top row. Tap to turn on or off, white is on, black is off.

PSE8 - images won't rotate in Organizer

I can't get jpg images to rotate landscape/portrait in PSE8 organiser. If I open them in the editor - rotation works properly. I never had this problem in my pervious version PSE5. I am working on Windows XP. Any hints why this is happening?
Thanks!

No, i never got any error messages - the images just refused to rotate in organiser. When clicking on the "rotate right" link - the dialog box appeared to show progress, but when 100% completion was reached, the image was still not rotated.. This only happened in Organiser - the Editor rotation went fine.
Loggin on as Admin didn't change anything. I uninstalled the program, and then re-installed it from the downloaded file. now the rotation works.
thanks for your help!

N96 Photo Editor - Edited image won't save

When I open a photo, and select 'Edit' from options, I rotate my photos to the correct composition (as they were taken upside down!) and then from options I select 'Save'. The progress bar appears to indicate the device is processing the change.
However on returning back to the image menu, the photo simply reverts back to how it was before. Which is annoying as with the auto rotate switched on its impossible to look at photos when are upside down!
Am I missing something out or is there a bug in the image editor?
Hope you can help, thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
I've just tested this and you are right - it does revert back to displaying the original photo after saving. If you then just click "Back" to return to the menu, you may no see the image depending on which option you selected when you went into "Photos".
The new image won't appear in "Captured items" because it is not an image actually taken with the phone's camera. If you go back to the Photos menu and select "All", your edited image should appear in there.

Snow Leopard (10.6.8) Web Browser, App Store, iTunes Store image won't finish loading.

Hello,
I've recently upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard by clean installing. Once I upgraded to Snow Leopard (10.6.3) everything seemed to work perfectly except for the new keyboard that I purchased (requires upgrade to 10.6.8). So as I upgraded to 10.6.8 by "Software Update…".
Once the update was completed and the machine restarted I've noticed when I opened opened couple of common sites in Safari (such as: Flickr, YouTube, and Amazon) and some of the images won't finish loading with a "?" in the middle where the image would be and browser assumes that the site was done loading. First I thought this was a refresh problem so I hit refresh on the browser but nothing really happened. I thought this was strange so I decided to download Google Chrome and Firefox to try it out as well. Same situation as well… Then I opened the App Store and iTunes Store and the same things happened there as well. I'm assuming that all these images exists online so anything that access the web to load images will just crap out. One odd thing is that this problem don't seem to happen on any of the sites on Apple when I view it in the web browsers.
I couldn't figure out the reason so I decided to reinstall Snow Leopard (10.6.3) again by cleaning out the hard drives as before. Once it finished installing I opened up iTunes Store and Safari and the images loads fine. So went ahead (crossing my fingers) to "Software Updates…" to 10.6.8 and the the problem happened again.
I naively went ahead and tried to clean installing it again, thinking "Third time is the charm!" But same situation once I upgrade to 10.6.8. After the third time I let the browser sit there after it didn't load those images. I waited about five minutes and hit refresh and the images loaded. This happened the same with App Store and iTunes Store images as well. This is very odd because my interment connection hasn't been a changed before I upgraded to 10.6.8. Seems like browsers just cuts off the loading time of the whatever that's lagging instead on that site.
Is there a solution in the preferences for this or is this some kind of a bug that I'm having with my OS disc or network card? I don't think this has nothing to do with my modem or my interment service because it was working fine before I upgraded to 10.6.8.

I get that same problem too-you could try checking your network settings, release and renew your IP address, see if that helps. There is a tweaking menu you can get in Firefox that can help somewhat (google Firefox tweaks) but you'd have to raise the hood in FF and tinker a bit, but it does help. How much RAM do you have on your Mac Pro?, also update your Java and shockwave

DVD burned from a disk image won't work on different computers???

Under the directions for how to burn a DVD from an disk image, the Apple Help document (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93006) says this:
"Note: When burning a disc from a disk image, the burned disc will have the same format as the disk image. If you need a disc that will work on different computers, burn the disc in the Finder."
Does this mean that the DVDs that I am burning from the disk image won't be able to be played on a PC? a Mac other than mine? Neither? WHAT? I am planning to sell the DVDs of a workshop I present -- to people who may be playing them on PCs. Should I not be using this method (burning from a disk image) to burn my DVDs?

Video DVDs are in the UDF format. The disk image you created is in the UDF format. When you use Disk Utility to burn the disk image to writable media, the new discs will be in UDF format and all will be well.
You are doing things correctly.
BTW, unless you have an external burner with lots of cooling, if you expect to use the burner in your Mac (which DOESN'T have lots of cooling), it's a good idea to pause between discs to allow the burner to cool down. (BTW, this comment is based on the reported results of several people in the forum. If you don't allow the cool down timer, you will start to create 'bad' discs. Also it is VERY important that you reduce the burn speed in Disk Utility to 4x or lower in order to create discs with maximum compatability with players. (You should see a way to change the speed in Disk Utility afterr you have inserted a disc.)

CDs, DVDs, disk images won't appear in Sidebar or on Desktop

Hello,
Brand new iMac 2.16, right out of the box.
CDs, DVDs, and Disk Images won't appear on the desktop or in the Sidebar. Nothing is shown over the horizontal gray line at the top of the sidebar, no Macintosh HD, Servers, etc. Disk Images are fully functional, ie Disk Utility recognizes and mounts them just fine.
I checked Mac Help and followed its instructions:
(1) In Finder preferences:Pane:General, all 'Show These Items on the Desktop' boxes are checked.
(2) In Finder preferences:Pane:Sidebar, I checked all boxes under "Show These Items in the Sidebar. BUT these changes are NOT retained. After I close the Preferences, the Sidebar does not change. If I re-open the Sidebar preferences, the relevant boxes are now unchecked, as if I'd never done a thing.
Restarting was the only way to fix the problem. Thereafter, the upper items in the Sidebar (Macintosh HD, external drives, iPod, CDs) sometimes SPONTANEOUSLY disappear. They still show up on the desktop, but tweaking the Sidebar preferences is again ineffective. Restarting is the only solution.
Thank you for your help,
Andy

Hi Andy, Welcome to Apple's Users Help Users Forums.
1] Everything elmac says is helpful and correct.
2] An upgrade to 10.4.8 with the 10.4.8 Combo from blue apple / Mac OS Updates might fix your hiccup. If you don't want .8 then .7 combo.
3] [OT] For some minor security issues, it is better to surf the internet in a standard account. If you are surfing in an admin account then here is how to switch and maintain prefs.
Set up a new account in System Preferences / Accounts / +
and make it have admin priviledges. Be sure to remember short name and password since you will be asked to "authenticate" when running in your standard account. This new account is often called "test" in these forums.
Once that is done convert your regular account to standard.
Good Luck, JP

My Images won't open in Photoshop CS5 when I click on Edit in Lightroom - even though this option has been selected? To edit in Photoshop I have to export image from Lightroom then import into Photoshop. I have other programmes such as NIK and if I wish

My Images won't open in Photoshop CS5 when I click on Edit in Lightroom - even though this option has been selected? To edit in Photoshop I have to export image from Lightroom then import into Photoshop. I have other programmes such as NIK and if I wish to edit in these everything works fine.

Same here. I've never had trouble with this function before.
It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1 Lightroom is version 5.7 Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
FWIW, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... . Makes me think Photoshop, not Lightroom, is all wacky. I tried dumping PS preferences

JS CS3 flag duplicate images with scale and rotation differnce

I've been trying to cut down on the number of images a script I have would produce. The old script would look for links that are being used multiple times and then just version the link which is fine. What I am finding this that although a document may have one image linked 9 time 6 times out of the nine the image is scaled and rotated the same amount and the other 3 times the rotation and scaling also match. In this example the image only needs 2 versions the first as the original and the second with the scale and rotation of the image used 3 time let say.
So to the code:
The following code will work through the doc and create an array of the links as duplicates:
function LinkUsage(myLink) {
    var myLinkCounter = 0;
        for (var myCounter = 0; myCounter < myDoc.links.length; myCounter++) {
        if (myLink.filePath == myDoc.links[myCounter].filePath) {
            myLinkCounter++;
    return myLinkCounter
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;var myNumLinks = [];
for ( var t = myDoc.links.length-1; t >= 0; t-- ){
    if(LinkUsage(myDoc.links[t])>1){
            myNumLinks.push(myDoc.links[t].id);
Is there a way to loop through the array and only flag the differnent scale and roatations. What I should get is that out of the multiple link uasage the image is only changed twice out of the 9 times used.
I was trying to loop through the array and then loop through it within the loop to compare the link but this does not work for obvious reasons.
for (var i=0 ; i <myNumLinks.length; i++){
    var valLink = myDoc.links.itemByID( myNumLinks[i]);
        if(valLink.parent.constructor.name == "Image"){
            for (var j=0 ; j<myNumLinks.length; j++){
                if(myDoc.links.itemByID( myNumLinks[j]).parent.constructor.name == "Image"){
                    if(valLink.parent.parent.images[0].rotationAngle != myDoc.links.itemByID( myNumLinks[j]).parent.parent.images[0].rotationAngle){
                        $.write(myNumLinks[i]+"\n");
Is what I am trying to do possible and if so any suggestions would be appreciated.
Cheers, John.

I think I might be one step closer to getting this to work. I've been able to just capture the file path of the duplicates using:
//count the number of times the link is used
function LinkUsage(myLink) {
    var myLinkCounter = 0;
        for (var myCounter = 0; myCounter < myDoc.links.length; myCounter++) {
        if (myLink.filePath == myDoc.links[myCounter].filePath) {
            myLinkCounter++;
    return myLinkCounter
//check if the filepath has been added to the array
function chkVal(val){
    var compCount = 0;
    for(var arr = 0; arr < myNumLinks.length; arr++){
        if(val == myNumLinks[arr] ){
        compCount++;
    if(compCount >=1){
        return false;
        }else{
            return true;
//check the links inthe doc
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var myNumLinks = [];
for ( var t = myDoc.links.length-1; t >= 0; t-- ){
    if(LinkUsage(myDoc.links[t])>1){
        if(myNumLinks == 0){
            myNumLinks.push(myDoc.links[t].filePath);
            }else{
                if(chkVal(myDoc.links[t].filePath)){
                    myNumLinks.push(myDoc.links[t].filePath);
for (var i=0 ; i <myNumLinks.length; i++){
    $.write(myNumLinks[i]+"\n");

Images won't show up in edit mode

Okay this one really has me baffled.
When I go into Aperture 3.6 and go to edit images in either split view or viewer mode, the images won't display. I can see the thumbnail preview, but nothing else.
Help!

That's not good .
Many — perhaps most — UI issues are resolved by deleting your preferences. Instructions are on the Apple Trouble-shooting page. You might first simply reboot if you haven't already. Let us know how it goes.

Disk images won't unmount/eject for admin user, DVDs & iDisk also affected

This problem started when I was on Tiger, and seemed to follow me onto Leopard.
It only affects me, the primary user on my Mac. *One other user on the computer; she also has admin level access and does not have any of these problems.*
Here's the deal:
*Once mounted, disk images won't eject/unmount.*
- Dragging to the trash can doesn't work. The eject icon appears, but nothing happens.
- Ctrl-click does not show Eject as an option when highlighting the mounted image.
- CMD-E doesn't work
- EJect doesn't appear as an option in the finder menu
- Clicking on the Eject button in the sidebar of the Finder window doesn't work.
- I've logged out, rebooted, repaired permission, and installed a new OS (clean install of 10.5, then did the import of my old user settings. Since I had the problem in Tiger, it's clear the problem followed me, but what the heck causes it?)
*The only way to unmount/eject a disk image is to use the Disk Utility Program.*
*DVDs also can only be ejected via Disk Utility*
The iDisk connection can only be killed by opening Activity Monitor and killing the webdavfs_agent process.
Would love some help. I've searched a lot and have a fair amount of folks with this problem, but no real solution.

That'll work; however, then the OP has to reset all of his preferences. Easier would be to log into the newly created admin account, backup the bad account's folder, delete the bad account, selecting the save data option (which is stored in /Users/Deleted Users/ as a disk image), recreate the bad account using the same username/password combo, log out and back into the recreated original account. Mount the saved data dmg file in /Users/Deleted Users/, open the /Library/Preferences/ folder from the saved data, open the current /Users/restored account/Library/Preferences/ folder, and slowly copy plist files from the saved data folder to the current one. Log out and back in to ensure there's no conflict and things still work correctly. Resolving these kinds of conflicts is a laborious process, but not as laborious as resetting preferences or even remembering what you set weeks, months, or years ago.

When I drag an image into IBA, it rotates 90 degrees.

I'm having trouble dragging a particular image into iBooks Author. I took a picture and imported from my camera to iPhoto. The image had to be rotated 90 degrees, which I did in iPhoto. I'm using the "Contemporary" template in iBooks Author and I'm trying to drag my image from iPhoto to replace the red, space themed image at the top of a section page. When I do so, the image reverts to its original instead of the rotated form. I can't figure out how to rotate the image without rotating the mask.

Hello Abram1,
Not sure of the reasons but I would imaging it might have to do with iPhoto and its non destruction approach to editing.
Have you tried exporting the image out as a new image that would then have the new rotation that you wish applied to it.
I hope this helps,
Regards,
Nigel

Image won't save in my e-mail signature

Hoping someone can help me, I have tried adding an image to my e-mail signature by going into mail preferences and then dragging and dropping and image into an existing mail signature that I have created previously.
The thing is, every time I close mail and open it back up again the image never is saved to my e-mail signature.
The account I have set-up is link hosted by GoDaddy with my own domain name.
I have 5 accounts set-up and each account has it's own assigned mail signature.
I don't know why the image won't save in my e-mail signature????

I am having this same issue. I am not using a pic or html. Its just Text. This is on my .ME Email Account.

Disk Image Won't Mount - Reason: Device Not Recognized

As I've searched the discussion forums, I've seen plenty of postings for "Disk Image Won't Mount" and for "Device Not Recognized" but not the way I'm seeing it on my laptop.
After a backup and restore, my mac will no longer mount any... and I mean any images. I have downloaded several security or software updates from different vendors and each .dmg file will not mount. I still have the .dmg files in hopes that after I get this problem solved, I'll be able to install them, but...
It always gives the same reason for not mounting and I'm at a loss on what to do next. I've run Software Update hoping it will be a quick fix, but have had no success.
Any suggestions?

I have a similar problem. Using FireWire disk mode, I put a disk image of my entire iBook onto my iMac as a back-up. (For an unrelated problem, Apple told me I needed to erase my iBook completely and do a clean install of the system.) Well, I screwed something up. I don't know what exactly--maybe I didn't "put away" the device correctly, but the next day when I flipped on my iMac, the disk image of my iBook was just gone, and not to be found anywhere. I finally succeeded in restoring the image using TechTool, which scanned the entire volume of the iMac for directory information. And it's all there, because the img file is more than 10GB. But when I double-click on it, I get the following error msg: "The following disk images failed to mount...reason--not recognized." I've checked the app it's supposed to open with, permissions, and run Disk Utility volume repair. No dice. Any ideas??? Did I mention that this is EVERYTHING I had on my iBook???
