IPhoto shows thumbnail for screen snapshots but no image

My mother-in-law just got back from a several month long trip in South America. She has thousands of photos from a camera and iPad2 which she uploaded into iPhoto on her iMac. Almost all of the photos are fine, but she discovered that any snapshot images that she took of her iPad's screen have a thumbnail, but no full-size image attached to it. I found several other threads where an exclamation or blank screen popped up when the person clicked on the thumbnail. When she clicks on a thumbnail, it brings up another photo from a completely different time (several years ago). She has uploaded snapshots in the past with no trouble, and has not updated her OS or iPhoto since then.
Has anyone experienced the same problem and if so, what did you do to find the missing images? I am unable to give her product details right now, but will update once I have access to that information. Her iMac is 4 or 5 years old, and she is probably running on an older version of iPhoto.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer! Cheers, Erika

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. Include the option to rebuild the thumbnails. It can take 3 or 4 goes for this to work

My iPhoto screen previously showed thumbnails for each film roll. Now I only have individual pictures. I have lost my film roll categorization, though I have tried to sort by film roll. How do I get back to thumbnails within each film roll?

what version of iPhto? Of the OS?
there is a thumbnial size slider in either the lower right hand or left hand corner of the iPhoto window - does sliding it resolve your issue?

in on asset class i have created 2 assets by using of aso1 after that i acquired one asset for that i run the depreciation for first 5 periods, it has been showing depreciation for those period but if i am trying to run the depreciation for second asset it is not showing first 5 periods why it is not showing? Is there any reason?

Hi
Repeat run you can do only for the last depreciation period. For the asset which you are tryin to post depreciation from July to Jan, please check the asset value date which you have given while posting the transactions or in the asset master.
If the asset value date is in July, then deprecaition from July - Jan will get posted in the current month depreciation in total. You will not be able to post depreciation individually month wise using AFAB.

PSE 12 Has stopped showing thumbnails for new files

PSE 12 has stopped showing thumbnails for new file imports. Have Windows 8.1 update

In the PSE12 Organizer, the last files imported show an hourglass thumbnail. I am importing from the camera card. Other images have the correct thumbnail. I see the spinning icon on the lower bar showing it updating the catalog. Thank you for your assistance

Cs6 bridge not showing thumbnails for raw file

Just upgraded to CS6
cs6 bridge not showing thumbnails for raw files.
Can see thumbnails in CS5.1 bridge and LR 4.2 which fortunately i did not uninstall.
Bummer since I am up against a hard deadline.
Really Sucks

We can't know. You are not offering any system information or e.g. info about what image files you are working with. Since they do show up in your otehr programs, my assumption would be that you need to switch the Camera Raw engine back to the 2009/2010 version in Photoshop and not use the default new 2012 one. Perhaps your thumbnails will appear then....

IPod screen illuminates but no image; iPod won't power off

iPod hard drive whirrs and screen illuminates, but no image (text or other) appears. iPod won't power off. iPod is recognized by iTunes only when in disk mode. Multiple restores were useless in restoring the screen function. Tools such as Disk Utility and Disk Warrior verified the directories were satisfactory. Can't locate a hardware diagnostic tool that can diagnose an iPod; and because the screen is malfunctioning, I can't run the iPod's built-in diagnostic routines.
Any solutions, or is this iPod destined for the repair shop?

If your iPod will not power off, unplug it from any power supply and wait for it to run the battery down completely. Then it will power off simply because there is not enough power to keep it running. (It may take 24 hours to do this.) Once this has happened, plug the iPod back into your computer. After about 30 minutes, you should see the "Please wait, very low battery" message. After a while longer, the iPod will have enough power and should reset itself. If not, re-post, but see below.
At the bottom of your post you state that you have a 30GB video iPod. In that case, if you need to re-post, it would be better in the 5th generation iPod forum, (either 5th generation or 5th gen late - see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353 for more information) as there will be posts from owners of the same model as you have, and with the same problems.

Changing portal screen works but no image displayed on other applications

Hello Experts,
We have changed the portal logon screen as mentioned in help.sap.com
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/23/c0e240beb0702ae10000000a155106/frameset.htm
1. Make another copy of com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par.bak and modified the new PAR file.
2. Copied back the modified file to <J2EE_Engine_Instance>\j2ee\cluster\server<X>\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\WEB-INF\deployment\pcd.
3. Modified authschemes.xml file with new PAR file name and edited authschemes.xml file through Config Tool and "login.authschemes.definition.file" is pointing to new authscehemes.xml file.
4. Also changed the parameter in Config Tool "ume.logon.branding_image" to point to new image file name.
Everything worked fine and we are able to see the changes in Portal logon screen.
But there is no image displayed on other applications like User Management, WebDynpro. Does these application uses any other PAR file.
Please suggest what needs to be done so that same images are being displayed on all Java pplication - portal, user management, web dynpro,etc.
Thanks
Davinder

Only portal logon screen as contrlled by the PAR file. This is a portal specific tool and does not apply to other Java apps. Changing those other apps is not officially supported, but some people will replace the branding images etc. Just search under \usr\sap\<SID> for the brandingimage files and replace them as necessary.

IPhoto shows as version 9.5, but it's not.. it's version still 9.3

I exhuberantly updated to OS X Mavericks and proceeded to update my apps across the board.    Had no problems at all until I got to iPhoto.   It was originally installed from the iLife '11 DVD's.
When I attempted to update the iLife apps, I was asked to associate the previous versions so that I could download them from the MAS.   No problem... Garage Band downloaded no problem, I got a notification that my video card was not compatible with the new version of iMovie and finally I updated iPhoto and it seemed to download with no problem at all...    In the MAS it showed as "installing", then "installed".
I jumped into the finder to check out iPhoto and saw that the Application Icon had updated to the new icon, but when I launched the app, it opened, did a library update but strangely shows the old interface with none of the updated features.   Doing a "Get Info" on the icon displayed the version as being version 9.5.   Even, selecting "About iPhoto" from within the application displayed the wrong version number, but showed it from within an iPhoto '11 screen.
Now, when I go back to the MAS to see if I can upgrade this further and get the correnct version straightened out, it shows as "installed" and it's not clickable.    Any thoughts on reconciling this?   What should I consider as next steps so that I can use the updated software?
Here's my configuration:
MacPro
2.8 Ghz Quad-Core
6 GB RAM
Running OS X 10.9 Mavericks
Here's a screenshot. Notice the old version of iPhoto running behind the panels saying that it's version 9.5.
Thanks in advance.

Hmm... I expected to see iPhoto look like the version that's in the app store preview stills.   However, I just toggled into fullscreen mode and saw the view they were using in the store.
My bad...   thanks for the help!

IPhoto shows thumbnails & full size as negs

Several of my Black & White photos have gone from being good pictures to something that looks like a neg. These were all showing up properly in the past, but periodically this happens and always to b&w scans. the only way I've been able to fix them has been to drag them onto the desktop and use Photoshop correct them, then reimport them to iPhoto. Using the adjustment sliders does not help.
I just found one that the thumbnail is fine, but when you look at it full sized, It's just a very light gray image.
How do you cancel a change it iPhoto to keep it from modifying the file if the end result is worse than what you started with?

Lynda:
What version of Quicktime are you running. If it's not at 7.1.6 then update it and see if they will display properly then. Also you should be running iPhoto 6.0.6.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

IPhoto 08 imported for one user but not another

We have iPhoto '08 ver 7.1.5 and it worked fine with my login. I could import photos from our Canon PowerShot SD960 into my iPhoto library. But when my wife logged in and tried to import the same photos she got a message stating "Unreadable Files" and "the following file could not be imported".
On her login using Image Capture, she could import the pictures off the camera and save them to her Desktop then she could view and also save them using Preview and could also import them to her iPhoto library from the Desktop folder she had saved them into.
I reformatted the camera's card and I also used iPhoto Library Manager and rebuilt her Library.
We can now both import pictures fine but I'm wondering for how long this will be the case.
Same exact situation existed with another camera we have - it worked for me but not for her.
Just curious to know what the cause might have been in case it's something we are doing that is causing the issue.

HI Bob,
You can test your settings by clicking the big "Test My DNS" button at <https://www.dns-oarc.net/oarc/services/dnsentropy>. If you see "Poor" on any of the tests, don't use that domain name server! Remove it from Apple Menu => System Preferences =>Network =>DNS Servers or similar location in your router if you've got a 'home network'. If all you have is "poor" DNS servers in your list, call your ISP and insist that they give you the address of a name server which is protected against the recently exposed DNS cache-poisoning threat.
Also, open System Preferences/Network. Click the DNS tab. Add these numbers in the DNS Servers box.

See if that helps.

How do i get video from my sony hx100 digital camera to my mac? after connecting the camera via the supplied usb cable, iMovie shows icons for 5 videos, but none will load.

i've connected the camera to the mac using the supplied usb cable. imovie shows 5 icons for videos but all of them have the red circle with slash through them and the box to import them is grayed out.

Get a nice Sony miniDV camcorder. It is not too expensive; it is small and easy to carry around to shoot your video. Most importantly, it will be instantly compatible with iMovie. You don't have to install any software, just connect it via FireWire (Sony calls this iLink) and you are good to go!
I have had several Sonys and love them. You don't need one with fancy editing capabilities because you will edit your movies in iMovie. Just be sure that it has AV In and Out so you can import and export back to the camcorder.
My current version is the small DCR HC-26. There are newer versions of that HC-30something and 40something. Look at the specs on Sony's website
Some of them require the use of a dock to import and export. I am not really fond of that feature. I like just connecting directly to the camera.

Mr.CEO said that once we are updated to ios7 iPhoto ,iMovie are for free. But when I got to App Store it is paid one

Mr . CEO said that once if we are updated to ios7 then iMovie ,iPhoto are free but when I am in AppStore then those apps are paid once

What Apple said was that you will be offered the iWork's apps for free if you activate a new device after September 1, 2013.
