Messages won't display images, sandbox violation?

Can anyone help me figure out why, when I receive an iMessage that contains a photo or other image, Messages on Yosemite won't display the image? It appears to be a sandbox permissions issue, but I can't figure out how to resolve it.
Briefly, when I receive an iMessage that contains any image, the image displays just fine on my iOS devices, but in OS X Yosemite (10.10.1, build 14B25), it just shows up as a generic icon (attached at the bottom of this question). Clicking the icon or magnifying glass doesn't load it, double-clicking it doesn't load it, Quick View won't show it... nothing. If I look in /var/logs/system.log, any attempt to view it generates sandbox-related errors:
Messages[30820]: [Warning] Transfer: unable to create image for IMG_2758.JPG.jpeg
kernel[0]: Sandbox: Messages(30820) deny file-read-data /private/var/folders/7l/cn4n4k4n4p31ncqq9qqk1klrydkmkm/T/IMG_2758.JPG.jpeg
If I manually open up that directory (/private/var/folders/7l/cn4n4k4n4p31ncqq9qqk1klrydkmkm/T/) I can see the image and open it myself, but Messages can't do it... and I can't for the life of me figure out how Messages's sandbox is configured and what is going on here.
This all happened when I upgraded to Yosemite; prior to Yosemite, everything worked fine. I've tried to blow away /private/var/folders/7l/ and let it get rebuilt, to no avail. I've also hunted for Messages's sandbox config file, to no avail.
Help?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
That does seem odd.
I mentioned the Containers things as this is the Read and Write route that the app uses (normally to the aliases in the /Data/Library/Preferences that pints to ~/library/Preferences)
I also looked in those places but for IDS, SOAgent and IMAgent that are also involved but no luck.

A Different view if it helps
I am not sure what to suggest at this point.

Mail Messages won't display on iphone 4

I have a .mac and a gmail account set up on my phone. I can see the messages in my inbox for all accounts but the individual emails won't display when I go to read them, the message portion of the email is blank. I can see the "from" an "to" and just the message is missing! Any thoughts?

Rebooting the phone seems to have solved this for the time being. I will let everyone know if it recurs.

Lightbox won't display images

I am using lightbox in dreamweaver and am having a hard time getting the pictures to display on the website. When you click on the image on the website, there is a continuous loading screen for the image. I thought I was having a hard time adjusting the right size of the image, but when I click on live view in dreamweaver, they show correctly. Why does it work in my live view, but not actual website? Am I not connecting it correctly?

A couple of my images won't display. I am cropping to make them fit in Photoshop. Is there a way I am saving or cropping them wrong? Thank you!

Random messages won't display in Mail

Hi,
Using Mail 2.0.8 on a MacBook Pro 2GHz running Mac OS X 10.4.5.
Main account is set-up as IMAP. Recently, I began noticing that some messages will not display in Mail, nor will they be marked as read. The message shown in the preview pane is:
The message from <sender> <sender email> concerning “subject” has not > been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in > order to download it.
However, the account is online. All other messages received at the same time display properly. There are no characteristics common among or unique to messages that behave like this, at least as far as I can discern. Ultimately, without any specific actions, the messages will display properly.
If I go to my webmail account and read the message, Mail will update soon after to show that it has been read. So clearly the account is online, as Mail can send and receive commands to set the status. Still, the message will not display.
Has anyone experienced similar behavior, and have you found a solution?
Thanks!
Patrick

Ernie, David, et al,
Perhaps I spoke too soon. I continue to have the same problem with Mail and my IMAP accounts, which are advancing beyond annoying. I am now considering moving to another email application, which is something I really don't want to do. Following is a brief update:
* After moving the Mail folder and plist file to my desktop, restarting Mail and entering my accounts again, it worked properly for a short period of time. The behavior reappeared soon thereafter. (I had mboxes on my Mac, not on the server, and for some reason I cannot import them again).
* I have a bad habit of using my email as a file system, so my inbox was huge. So I took the time to create a bunch of mboxes, file messages, and otherwise clean my inbox. It's now 1/4 the size it was. I'm also trying to habitualize dealing with email and attachments to either file or delete messsages when the come in (so far, so good).
* When I get a message that exhibits this behavior, I can now Rebuild the mailbox and the message will show. Rebuild occurs quickly because my mailbox is so much smaller, and I've not lost any messages. The messages that previously would not display at all now display properly. However, I must Rebuild every time I receive a message of this type, which occurs several times per day.
* It appears that messages with attachments display properly, but those without do not. It also appears to be highly likely that all the messages originate from an Exchange Server (I know this to be true of several clients, and others are very likely). I also know for a fact that many that I receive properly are not using Exchange Server.
* Calendar invitations from Notes work as intended (show up in Mail as ICS files, notifications appear in iCal which allow me to set my status and reply); however, those from Exchange Server only show as text messages (and don't display until I rebuild).
It appears to me that the problem may lie, at least in my case, to how Mail handles Exchange Server items in IMAP mode, and not just an IMAP bug, but again, I cannot isolate this and be 100% certain.
Will keep you posted.

My email messages won't display. The preview shows but when I enter the mail it is completly blank

My email messages have stopped displaying in both my mail accounts. I can see a preview but when I enter the individual mail the screen is blank. Not even the preview text is displayed. I have not changed any settings. Does anyone know how to resolve this.

Reset your phone: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release.

Won't display images - Its probably something simple!

Hey ,
Ive been trying for ages, looked throught the tutorials (i have even tried just using java pasted from the site for one of the simple programs) and looking through old forum questions but can't find out why my GUI wont display images. It compiles fine but then when i run the program ... no pics!
I suspect its something to do with the directory, i have tired:
- putting the images in the same directory as the java classes,
- putting in the entire image location paths (for this i get illegal characters error because it has '\' in the path but i get round this using '\\' ) but still no joy.
Like i said am just using the example programme from the site so i know its correct, Any ideas??
Thanx
Lisa

Here is a simple program to test:
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
JLabel label = new JLabel("image.jpg");
frame.getContenPane()..add( label );
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);a) Place "image.jpg" is the same directory as the source and class files.
b) Don't use any package names for you class.
c) Compile using javac, not through and ide or anything.
d) Make sure your classpath includes ".", so it will search the current directory.

QuickPreview and Preview won't display images

OK. We're on a MacPro 5,1 and have been running mountain lion for a week or two now with no issues. all of a sudden, preview has stopped displaying images when you open them. The finder window, when in column view, will not display the preview, and hitting spacebar to go into QuickView will just open a blank white screen in the size of the image. Image icons for the pgs do display. Interestingly enough, Screen sharing also is displaying blank white screens.

Any suggestions as to what's gone wrong?

Try deleting the Finder .plists.
You need to look in your user Library/Preferences for the .plist. Hold down the option key while using the Finder "Go To Folder" command. Enter ~`/Library. Delete the .plist(s) for the application or move them to your desktop so you can put them back. Since there are several .plists, you may want to try them one at a time You'll need to Force quit Finder to get it to relaunch (command - option- esc).
If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
http://osxdaily.com/2011/07/04/show-library-directory-in-mac-os-x-lion/
You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.2. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

IPhone Messages won't display pictures after clicking on thumbnail.

On iOS6 either sending or recieving a picture in messages will yield a thumbnail in the thread view, but if you click on it instead of the full image being displayed it says "Loading..." then never shows the image.

Just do a hard reset. Hold your power button and home button at the same time until you see the Apple symbol. Then let go and let iOS reboot. It should be fixed after that.

Mac Mail 4.5 won't display images

This is driving me crazy! I've tried to find an answer for this in the posts. It seems that some people out there have had the same problem and haven't found a resolution.
When I try to read emails from both of my addresses from two different mail servers, the images don't display, I only get a little blue box with a question mark. I have recently completely reloaded the OS and software and the "Display remote images in HTML messages" box is checked. Images do load correctly in Safari if I use my old Earthlink account. They also load correctly in Gmail.
In addition, I don't seem to have a load images button on the bar between the mail list and the message but I do get it in the spam folder. I can't find anything in preferences that changes that and I'd settle for having that option. What's going on, anyone know? Thanks in advance.

Some more clarity of differences, if any, between the behavior of the Gmail account, which I presume is IMAP, and the Earthlink which is POP. Or do you have another account?
With an IMAP account, in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced, if you have selected to Keep copies of messages and their attachments for Offline viewing, then the Load Image button would not be needed or displayed. But in the SPAM folder, the action is to not pre-load those images.
But any images on remote servers are not attachments, and will not be loaded, but are only links. Therefore you must be connected in good order to view those images. Having the blue question mark is an indication of lack of connectivity to the origin server.
More info, please.

Hi, I've been trying to get this code to show an image for quite some time and just don't understand why it isn't. I run the program and it just shows a black square on my marker. Is there something wrong with it?

Thanks for helping me get through this bobo, I really appreciate it

After update to OSX, cannot scroll in Mail, messages won't display

My mailbox will not allow me to scroll through my messages. I must click on a message and use the up or down arrow keys.
Also, the short display works, but the message doesn't show over to the right. Sometimes I can click on the message and it will display in a new window, but sometimes it does not, only the headers.
Any help would be apreciated.

Rebooting the phone seems to have solved this for the time being. I will let everyone know if it recurs.

Messages won't display unread count

Since the last update the unread count on the icon will not display. Anyone have any ideas? It's turned on in the notifications centre.

UILoader won't display images from PHP/MYSQL query

I'm working on an online photo catalog, it works in straight PHP/HTML http://www.buckleyphotos.com/search/index.php but the photos are too easy to grab (Facebook and myspace are loaded with my photos). I know anything on screen can be grabbed, I just want to make it a little harder.
I've got a version of the ordering page with a SWF on it that will hopefully display the photos, http://www.buckleyphotos.com/searchtest/showpic.php?num=1&showpic=21_71909_6908.jpg&el=200 9-07-19+NEMX+Crow+Hill&riderno=21, but so far no luck.
Here's the PHP:
<?php
$page = $_GET['num'];
$el = urlencode($_GET["el"]);
$riderno = $_GET["riderno"];
$showPic = strtolower($_GET["showpic"]);
echo "$showPic";
?>
This is the Actionscript:
import fl.containers.UILoader;
var loader:UILoader = new UILoader();
loader.scaleContent = false;
loader.source = "showPic.php";
addChild(loader);
The SWF is in the same folder as the images.
Any help will be much appreciated.

I'm stil woking on this one,
http://www.buckleyphotos.com/wsp5706/source/image/showpic.php?num=1&showpic=21_71909_6487. jpg&el=2009-07-19+NEMX+Crow+Hill&riderno=21
Here's the PHP code
<?php
$page = $_GET['num'];
$el = urlencode($_GET["el"]);
$riderno = $_GET["riderno"];
$showPic = strtolower($_GET["showpic"]);
echo "$showPic";
?>
You can see the file name of the photo above the light gray SWF, that's the result of the PHP query, echo "showPic"
This is the AS 3 code:
import fl.containers.UILoader;
var loader:UILoader = new UILoader();
loader.scaleContent = false;
loader.source = "showPic";
addChild(loader);
This is the HTML:
<param name="movie" value="http://www.buckleyphotos.com/wsp5706/source/image/Main2.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<param name="swfversion" value="6.0.65.0">
<param name="expressinstall" value="../Scripts/expressInstall.swf">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always">
<param name="loader.source" value="$showPic">

Standard Forms messages won't display

I developed 6i forms using the standard template on Oracle 11.5.4. When I run the form within Apps 11i environment I cannot get the standard messages to display.
example: '1 record(s) saved'
Any help would be appreciated.
Phil

Thanks for your reply. I put the form module property - console window to my root window which is 'BLOCKNAME' and now receive the error:
FRM 47023 Error Parameter G_Query_Find Not Found
I am not passing parameters to this form. This is a dumb form, that is, it only queries and updates the detail block called BLOCKNAME.
Any Ideas???
