Mavericks's Messages doesn't show picture instead it's a file to download

Hi Everyone,
I installed Mavericks and now Messages app doesn't show pictures messages from senders, but it's a file to download. I still see the picture I sent out but not pictures coming in. I didn't have that issue with Mountain Lion. Can someone please help? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Messages 8 in Mavericks seems to handle pictures differently thnan Messages 7.x.x (Mountain Lion) and the iChat versions before that.
It seems it is now a function to "syphon" off pics to an Attachment folder and show only the spyglass item in the Conversations (iMessages) or Chats (buddies) to "recall them causing them to open in Preview.
It seems this will happen at different points time wise but has some relationship to how far the pic may have disappeared "up" the Chat.
This chat with "myself" spread over an AIM and an iMessages chat with my iPhone shows older item I sent not being displayed but one between Christmas and New Year still shows.
If I have the top hat pic on the left that is from my iPhone using the iPhone number.
Some are just the sync coming back which then show the Sig pic of the Mac Send of the iMessage.
I did have an issue where new Pics sent from the iPhone were going to the Downloads folder and not showing in the Chat window at all.
Nor could I iMessages the iPhone.
I could select the iPhone Number to send it too but as soon as I hit the enter key the Conversation seems to completely disappear and nothing was sent.
I deleted com.apple.ichat.plist for ~/Library/Preferences
Open the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder and enter that path in the dialogue box.
find the file and Drag it to the Trash.
Restart the app.

Click here and follow the instructions. If the computer was running Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier and you reach the third set of steps, insert a Mac OS X install disk.

Quick-time film doesn't show picture, sound only!

Repeatedly quick-time film doesn't show picture, sound only! This happened after an update some time ago. The current version is 7.7 PRO under MAc OS 10.5.8. Very annoying...!!!!!!

Use the Movie Inspector window to tell us more about one of these files.

Windows not recognizing my time capsle - I just purchased a new computer that runs windows 8 and it doesn't want to recognize the time capsule as an external hard drive (ie doesn't show up under my compter). I've downloaded airport utility...

I just purchased a new computer that runs windows 8 and it doesn't want to recognize the time capsule as an external hard drive (ie doesn't show up under my compter). I've downloaded and run airport utility, but it seems to have a hard time finding the time capsule...maybe one out of 10 times it will find it.
What's more, when I look under network infrastructure under the control panel, it shows my Broadcom ADSL centurylink Router...so I'm wondering if my modem/router combo is overriding the router function on my timecapsule and the time capsule is not being used as a router...
Any help much appreciated!

In this case the TC should be in bridge mode.
Win8 is still problematic. Try using ethernet instead of wireless. I think the drivers are poor still and it is well worth having a try via ethernet if you haven't already.
Otherwise you will need to wait for apple to release bonjour for windows 8 and airport utility.. which is not out yet.
Also make sure the windows is set to home, not work or public.. even turn off the firewall.
Open windows explorer and type the TC ip address into the address bar.. (none of which is perhaps the same.. I gave away windows at vista.. shudder)

Turn Time Machine OFF temporarily in its preference pane. Leave the window open.
Navigate in the Finder to your backup disk, and then to the folder named "Backups.backupdb" at the top level of the volume. If you back up over a network, you'll first have to mount the disk image file containing your backups by double-clicking it. Descend into the folder until you see the snapshots, which are represented by folders with a name that begins with the date of the snapshot. Find the one you want to restore from. There's a link named "Latest" representing the most recent snapshot. Use that one, if possible. Otherwise, you'll have to remember the date of the snapshot you choose.
Inside the snapshot folder is a folder hierarchy like the one on the source disk. Find one of the items you can't restore and select it. Open the Info dialog for the selected item. In the Sharing & Permissions section, you may see an entry in the access list that shows "Fetching…" in the Name column. If so, click the lock icon in the lower right corner of the dialog and authenticate. Then delete the "Fetching…" item from the icon list. Click the gear icon below the list and select Apply to enclosed items from the popup menu.
Now you should be able either to copy the item in the Finder or to restore it in the time-travel view. If you use the time-travel view, be sure to select the snapshot you just modified. If successful, repeat the operation with the other items you were unable to restore. You can select multiple items in the Finder and open a single Info dialog for all of them by pressing the key combination option-command-I.
When you're done, turn TM back ON and close its preference pane.

[solved] Nautilus on Gnome doesn't show preview img of any video file

Nautilus on Gnome 2.24 doesn't show preview image of any video file. Images are normal. Somebody have this issue too?

Nautilus uses Totem and Gstreamer codecs to show video thumbs. Maybe a reinstall would solve the problem. Actually, I have no idea other then this.

H:Message doesn't show message

In my bean, I do some check and add message to FacesContext ,
than, navigate it to error page, just use <h:messages/> to show error messages. but it show nothing, Why?
here are my source:
in java source:
FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ctx.addMessage(null, new FacesMessage("No such postcode"));

navigate it to error pageHow are you doing it? Sounds like that you're creating a new request instead of doing a redirect. This will reset the "old" messages. I am not sure but you might try to redirect using requestDispatcher.

OS X Mavericks Server.app doesn't show site, but default Welcome to OS X Server page

I am completely new to Mac OS X Server.app, so sorry if I sound dumb .
1. I installed Server.app to Mavericks.
2. Enabled Websites service in it.
3. Installed MySql.
4. Installed Wordpress using this script: https://github.com/MacMiniVault/Mac-Scripts/blob/master/mmvwordpress/mmvwordpres s-README.md
5. Created coresponding website to Websites
6. I opened Safari and navigated to my new created website: http://predstavitev.net:8081 and all I get is server's default page.
7. I checked what is the content of my "predstavitev.net" folder on server and found that it actually contains Wordpress installation files:
Please help me find out, what am I doing wrong. Thanks.

Check the Console.log for details that might be getting logged there related to this issue.
You're probably using NAT here, which means you'll be using split DNS or using an internal domain and an external domain. (Confusingly, DNS centrally matters with the web client accessing the web site, and rather less so with the web server itself.)
OS X Server itself requires DNS, irrespective of the web server — usual setup is the local IP network (not in 192.168.0.0/24 nor 192.168.1.0/24 subnets due to collisions with VPN connections later, and preferably somewhere "weird" in the 192.168.0.0/16 or 172.16.0.0/12 or 10.0.0.0/8 private IP blocks — pick a weird range for your subnet, not the first few ones that everybody else uses.
To verify local DNS services, launch Terminal.app from Applications > Utilities and issue the following harmless diagnostic command:
sudo changeip -checkhostname
That'll require an administrative password, might show a one-time informational message around the use of sudo, and will then display some network information and then an indication that no changes are required, or that there are DNS or network problems.
Do not use .local nor .arpa as your domain. (That works fine for incidental stuff, but network security and secure connections and related underpinnings all expect the servers involved to have valid DNS — not Bonjour.)
Unfortunate, if DNS is actually incorrectly configured, then various services including the mail server and Open Directory and the profile manager all tend to have problems, and all SSL-based security is dependent on proper DNS configurations.
FWIW, I'd be careful with managing a WordPress server, as breached with that Content Management System (CMS) package are common. I'd probably either host the site elsewhere (in the "cloud"), or would configure the WordPress web server in a DMZ to isolate the potential damage arising from a breach. (I use Drupal locally and while breaches with that are somewhat less common than with WordPress, I still lock that down, and still prefer to DMZ that.) With WordPress or Drupal or any other CMS, keep your patches current, too.

New Message Doesn't Show on Icon in Dock

I've created a new Mailbox folder for a client and have a Rule for all messages that come from him to automatically go into that folder. This works just fine but when a message comes from him and is sent to that Mailbox the red circle that usually shows up on the Mail icon in dock when new unread mail is received doesn't appear. So I don't know I have mail from him until I unhide Mail.
Is this just a feature that Mail doesn't have?
Thanks.

There's a program called DockStar that lets you put badges on the dock icon for different folders. It's shareware and available here: http://www.ecamm.com/mac/dockstar/
I've got a smart mailbox named "Unread messages" that just collects ... all my unread messages (I do a lot of automagic sorting) and then have DockStar show how many messages are in that smart folder.

Organizer folder view doesn't show pictures

All of my pictures on my computer have been imported into Organizer (PSE 9). When I choose the display option of "Folder location," and click on one folder, sometimes the pictures show and sometimes they don't. And some of the pictures show and some don't. Most of the folders show no pictures. Right now I want to edit a picture but I cannot get to it in Organizer because in the folder it's in, only 3 of maybe 20 pictures show and it is not one of them. Many pictures show in Windows(7) Explorer that have never shown in Organizer.

Hi ,
Have you imported the files in Organizer. If not then right click on the desired folder shown on the left hand side in Folder View. Choose the third option which says 'Import to Organizer' to import and view all of the folder's files in Organizer.
If I have understood the problem incorrectly and you have already imported those files to Organizer then try this : Switch to thumbnail view for a while. Search and select the file you want to work on. While the file is still selected in thumbnail view, choose to switch to Folder View to verify if the file is still not shown in Folder View ?
Hope this helps. Thanks

Windows Live doesn't show pictures of contacts

Hi,
Since a few weeks I have troubles with Windows Live Messenger.
I have a Nokia N73 with firmware version 4.0812.4.2.1.
I had the latest version of WLM (1.1.9000) but then the whole contact list didn't show up. Also the Windows Live didn't came up. During the installation, at the synchronizing of my contact list, it stayed at 10 %. After a while it was ready.
Then I installed version 1.0.6141 and now the contact list is back, but the pictures of the contacts aren't shown (even my own picture is not shown).
Anyone suggestions what I should do to get back the pictures of my contacts?
Best regards,
Niels

Hi haydnan
It may be a problem of Windows 7 Explorer. First you can try all the different explorer views, title, Large icon..
If there is no effect, you can try to the following methods.
In Windows Explorer
1. left click on the mail folder where your music is stored and select it.
2. Now right click and go to “properties”.
3. Now click “advanced”.
4. Put a check in the “Allow files in this folder to have contents indexed in addition to file properties”.
5.Click ”OK”.
6.Click”Apply”.
7. Click “OK” to apply changes to this folder. Sub folders and files.
Now go to your music library and see if it works.

Apple tv2 doesn't show picture subfolders

Hi, I'm having Problems with my Apple tv 2.
I'm using Win XP and Picasa and everything on the pc is in fine shape, means all Pictures are sorted in subfolders - but on my Apple-tv there is only one folder with lots of pictures in it. No sorted subfolders with no system. Watching Pictures that way makes no sense and no fun.
Does anyone out there have any solution for that... Or can anyone tell me what to do?
Thanks!
Christian

If you select a folder for sharing the Apple TV will see any folder within that folder as a separate album, but it won't see folders within those folders separately.
