No picture after upgrading to OS 10.3.9

I have three old B/W G3 and all of them has the same problem, 10.3.8 worked fine, after using the automatic upgrade everything seemed to bee ok. But after pressing reboot the screen is black. It sounds as everything works, i can hear the hard drive work for a while as it does when the computer starts.
Two of the macs as its original graphic card still installed, one as a sligthly better ATI card installed.
I have tried to move the graphics card to another slot, with the same result.
Any suggestions anyone?

I have a G3 B&W that I have done alot of work to. I went from a 12.1GB HD to a 160GB HD, but it only allows me 128GB. I replaced the rev1 motherboard with the rev2. Upgraded the processor from 350Mhz to 400Mhz which is still a little bit of a problem. Installed a super-drive in place of factory cd-rom. Still running the same video card Rage128 (ATI). Plus I installed Tiger, iLife 05, and iWork 05. Some things run well, some don't. New video card and a new processor I should be good to go. Anyway in what might be an answer to your question. In doing all of what I just rambled on about, I ran into this problem several times. I have an ex-girlfriend who was a Mac Tech, I learned a little trick. It might work for you it might not, but it worked for me on a couple of different occasions. Drop the side panel and touch some metal not the board itself, then leave it alone for about 5min. Let the static get out of there. Take out the video card very carefully. Take an eraser and run it over the teeth/connector pins whatever you want to call them. Reinstall the card, zip up and see if that doesn't fix your problem. Sounds pointless I know, but it worked for me.

  • Cannot change account picture after upgrading to Mountain Lion.

    After upgrading to Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard I cannot change account picture anymore.
    The box which is supposed to contain picture previews just says "No items".
    Screenshot attached:
    This is not limited to a particular account, trying to change the picture within any account leads to this problem.
    Is there any solution for the issue?
    Thank you in advance.

    Thank you for the answer.
    Sure I can drag a photo to the users profile and it works but those Default ones were quite useful for having no mess with setting custom picture.
    MacBook Pro with same Snow Leopard -> Mountain Lion upgrade did not have such issue.

  • Ghost pictures after upgrading to iPhoto 9.2.3

    I had to reload my external hard drive onto my Mac Pro after I needed a new harddrive. When opening iPhoto, it told me I had to upgrade in order for iPhoto to open so I did. Most of my photos & albums are there. However, there are a few albums that have "ghost" pictures in them. The album says it has the correct number of pictures in it and there are spaces/icons there for them, but the pictures are just black. When I scroll through quickly, I get a flash of the pictures but they stay black when I stop. I tried reloading all the pictures from my camera and they uploaded to the "Photos" window, but they are not in the "events" window at all. Any ideas?

    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

  • IPhoto library contains lots of gb but will not open pictures after upgrade to iPhoto ´11

    Upgraded from iPhoto ´08 to iPhoto ´11 (9.5.1) and to OS Maverick (10.9.1).
    In "Finder" the library still seem to contain lots of gigabytes of data, but when iPhoto open the library it reads 0 photos. I have tried rebuilt (option+cmd key when opening iPhoto), iPhoto library manager, I have purchased aperture which acts just like iPhoto. Quite a few pictures missing, starting to become desperate - anyone with other ideas? Any help appreciated!

    Give this a try:
    Starting over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1. Open the library package like this.
    2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
    This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

  • Contact pictures after upgrade

    Xperia with Facebook stopped syncing contacts from fb after the update, so I need to use the Facebook account to sync contacts.The contact pictures are in a very low resolution, they are useless. Removed the facebook account, deleted the facebook app data, still having the same issue. Also have this issue, with the google account pictures. Is there any solution to sync those pictures properly?

    Hi zsolesz79, this cannot be changed as Google only allows this level of resolution. I advise downloading a third party Contacts app to sync them with.

  • Lost pictures after upgrading to ios6

  • What happened to my pictures after upgrade?

    I did the upgrade, now my picture are out of order and only have the backup photos and some of them are missing. What do I do to get my photos back? Some day I will learn not to do the upgrades always screws something up.

    If you have proof of the configuration you ordered and you did not get it, I would call HP and ask them to just send a 320 gig hard drive (lowest cost resolution) or contact your local State Atty General or Better Business Bureau if HP refuses to help. There is not much more to say.

    What happened to Snow Leopard's desktop pictures after upgrade to Mavericks?
    New OS X versions sometimes comes with new OS X default desktop pictures.
    I'm sure you can find them on the Internet or better ones here and elsewhere
    http://interfacelift.com/wallpaper/downloads/date/widescreen/1920x1200/index1.ht ml
    Your personal desktop pictures should be still of course in your iPhoto and Pictures folder you might have to retarget them again in System Preferences.
    If you can't find the pictures, you can install Snow Leopard onto a external drive and boot the computer and get them, or find out where they are located and just copy them.

  • IPhone photos not syncing to Pictures folder after upgrade to OS 10.6

    I recently switched MacBooks, using a Time Machine backup, and am now on OS 10.6.3. I'm running iTunes 9.1.1, and my iPhone OS is 3.1.3
    Before switching computers, the photos on my iPhone would sync to my Pictures folder on the MacBook. They are no longer doing that, but I don't get any error messages. I have selected to sync from the Pictures folder, under the Photos tab in iTunes. Other items appear to be syncing successfully, such as iCal appointments that were entered on the iPhone.

    Did you do any OS X filesystem troubleshooting after updating to 10.6 - i.e. Disk Utility verify and repair (if necessary from install disc) and repair permissions? This should always be done after upgrades or installing new software.

  • After upgrading to Yosemite (I don't have iPhoto anymore, only PHOTOS) my pictures will not import from my iPad or iPhone 5s or any picture from web, it shows "Database Error: failured to persist version"

    After upgrading to Yosemite (I don't have iPhoto anymore, only PHOTOS) my pictures will not import from my iPad or iPhone 5s or any picture from web, it shows "Database Error: failured to persist version".  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Sorry,
    Yes, the error message is exactly like that  ("Database error: failured to persist version")
    No photos will import at all.  I use USB to import from iPhone 5s or iPad 2. 
    About the difference?  iPhoto and Photos .  Are there two softwares?
    I also will like to merge and/or synchronize all my photos I had saved to iCloud backups, Macbook Pro,  iPhone 5s and iPad hard drives using iPhoto.  It's call iPhoto library.  At one point I turned off streaming. 
    Thanks again Larry HN.

  • I lost hundreds of pictures from iPhoto after upgrading to Mavericks

    I lost hundreds of pictures from iphoto after upgrading to mavericks. does anyone know why or how to retrieve them. i cannot find them on time machine either.

    and
    Why do you think you have lost "hundreds" of pictures?
    What exactly are you seeing
    You can try Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

  • Can't Find My Pictures Folder in Bridge after upgrading to CS5

    Can't see My Picture folder after upgrading to CS5. See My Videos, My Favorites, My Music. I must have something I need to enable in View.
    Checked Preferences and My Pictures is check in Preferences.
    Can see all my picture files just fine when I plug in my external drive with the files all brought it by date.
    Thanks.

    If you mean My Pictures it is on the C drive.
    I have four internal and two external drives and all picture files show up in Bridge for immediate access except the My Pictures folder under my name on the main drive.
    There is only one partition on the drive and there is 350 gb free space.
    The set up, programmes,security software and drives are identical to when I was using CS5 with Vista, which is why I am thinking it is something to do with Win 7.

  • After upgrade to ios 8, some pictures in the album became blur?

    Hi,
    I'm using 5S, and after an upgrade to IOS8 (from 7.1 i think), i realised some of the photos that was previously in my photo rollbecomes blurry. I am very sure those original photos were not blur in the first place.
    I have tried re-starting the phones but problem still exists.
    Update: I realised when i click those photos, it has a revert option, but the pictures will automatically revert to the "sharp" condition (without further actions.). Is there a way to do it for all automatically? P.s i have deleted some photos thinking they were blur.

    at jpetr1
    Your observation is right. I am facing the same issue after upgrading to iOS 8.3. The trial and error was common with Microsoft .. it seems Apple is catching up with MS .
    I hope they address this issue quickly.
