Photo events thumbnails bug

Hi, I recently bought an iPhone 4S and after syncing all my iPhoto photos and events the thumbnails are all messed up in the events view on my iPhone.
I really want to fix this as it is bugging me. If you have any ides please let me know.
I've tried erasing all pictures and re-syncing and nothing worked.

Mine too. Anyone have a clue how to fix this?

  • IPhoto - Hidden Photos - Events Thumbnail Display Bug

    _*iPhoto - Hidden Photos - Events Thumbnail Display Bug*_
    iPhoto 08 contains a bug affecting the display of images that the user has marked as "hidden." Specifically, when the user toggles the View-Hidden Photos menu option, the Library-Events thumbnail view does not refresh quickly or reliably to show or hide Events containing "hidden photos."
    Sometimes all "hidden" photos remain visible when they should be hidden.
    Sometimes all "hidden" photos remain INvisible when they should be visible.
    This affects the Event thumbnail "key photo" if this photo was designated as hidden.
    This also affects any hidden Event photos when the user "skims" over an Event thumbnail to preview its contents.
    The issue is isolated to Events thumbnails. The problem does not exist:
    a) while browsing thumbnails inside a specific Event.
    b) while browsing photos in Library-Photos.
    c) while browsing photos in an Album.
    _*"Fixes" that do NOT work:*_
    Software updates... I have the latest version of OSX 10.5.2 and the latest version of iPhoto 08, including all the recent security and graphics system updates as of 02/16/2008.
    Maintenance... The issue is NOT resolved by rebuilding the database, rebuilding icons, or deleting the iPhoto preferences file. The issue can be reproduced in a separate user account after creating a new event in an otherwise empty iPhoto database.
    After much tinkering around, the following is the closest I've come to a
    _*TEMPORARY WORKAROUND:*_
    To *NOT DISPLAY* hidden images, go to the View menu and make sure Hidden Photos *is not* checked. Restart iPhoto, and the hidden images should now be invisible.
    To DISPLAY hidden images, go to the View menu and make sure Hidden Photos is checked. While the hidden images are now visible elsewhere, they may still be invisible in Events thumbnails, so restart iPhoto, and then wait about 10 seconds for the Events view to refresh with all the hidden thumbnail images now visible.
    If after carefully reading this you feel you have a definitive solution, please post a reply with your suggestions. Otherwise, please post to confirm if you can reproduce the problem on your computer running iPhoto 08 on Leopard. If so, please also file an official bug report with Apple. The more people report this, the faster we'll get it fix.

    My Acrobat Pro 9 has also this bug. I am using XP SP2. I have reported this bug at Adobe web site many times. I wrote to the Adobe customer care. I wrote about this on many different forums and I was hopping an update with this bug fixed. I installed all updates till now bu the problem still exists. I do not know why Adobe is not caring about this stupid bug. It is really, really annoying. In my experience with Adobe Acrobat for about 10 years, Acrobat version 9 is the worst version I ever worked with. There are a lot of glitches and bugs in it, expecially with fonts, web version creation, password protection encryption etc etc.
    If you find any fix please post back on this forum.
    Many thanks,

  • Photo Event/Album Thumbnail not Synched with iPhoto

    Hi and tnxs for reading.
    Is there a way to sync my iPhoto Album/Event Thumbnails with my iOS devices? I am noticing that on them, only the first photos are used as thumbnails.
    Tnxs, cheers

    1) why is this not an automatic feature? I mean, do I have to manually trash that folder every time I do modifications and need to sync them or is it supposed to autoupdate automatically sometimes?
    You shouldn't have to. This should update automaically.
    I see that my thumbnails are not synched aswell. In iPhoto Events/Albums I can select a thumbnail. However, on my iOS devices photo library, the thumbnail is the first photo of the Event/Album. Any chance to syncautomatically the same thumbnail I have in iPhoto
    I have no idea. I'd ask that on a forum for your Phone/Pad/Pod...
    Regards

  • Photo Thumbnail Bug?

    I just noticed a strange Photo album thumbnail display bug on both my iPhone and iPad runnign 4.2.1. If I save a PNG file (which has a transparent background) to my album, the thumbnail on the iPad shows the PNG image overlapping an image I have previously deleted. If I save more images off the internet that either have transparency or are narrow, the thumbnails keep showing the images overlapping previously deleted images. On the iPhone, the thumbnail itself shows up correctly, but the thumbnail of the image on the Albums page shows the same overlap issue.
    I assume this is widespread since it occurs on both my iPad and iPhone. I have reported it through feedback, but thought I would mention it here as well to assure myself this is on all iOS devices. Seems like a potential lack of security, if perhaps you deleted an image you didn't want anyone to see, then it shows up in the thumbnails, overlapped, but still clear enough to see.

    I have encountered the same issue. This is problematic for me because I had been capturing PNG images of confidential medical documents (using the "home+sleep" screen cap function) for brief reviewing of key patient information. Even in the small thumbnails it is possible to identify some personal information when these ghost images appear behind new thumbnails. There should be some way to dump old thumbnails or prevent their storage after being "deleted" altogether.

  • Photo events empty to other apps

    Hi all, since updating to 4.3 on the iPad
    (original), some (maybe half) of the events in the photo app dont show in other apps, for example, Pages and graphic apps. They show fine the actual Photo app though. The events that are empty to other apps also show a scrambled image as the event thumbnail when looking through the events.
    Anyone else have this issue and/or found a fix.
    Thanks!

    Open Iphoto.
    Select all events
    Open "Batch Change"
    Set "Date" as current date
    It will then set all time the same
    It will then sort by event name
    Sync and all events will be in alphabetized ord
    got this from another thread, def fixed the problem but makes all the dates the same (forcing it to use alphabetical).  Hopefully new OS will solve this nuisance bug/feature!

  • Photo Gallery thumbnails in business catalyst render in different sizes in different browsers

    Photo Gallery thumbnails in business catalyst render in different sizes in safari and chrome but are fine in firefox. What is the issue with Safari? I have tried the different algorithm options such as fill_proportional etc and firefox is the only browser that displays correctly. I thought safari was the most standards compatible browser - what's the problem here?

    Hi,
    If you have seperate XML file but with the same basic structure then you can change the XML a Spry dataset refers to and regenerate the spry region without reloading the full page.
    So on my photo gallery page I can change the album the photos are shown from via the seturl sprydata function as below.  dsPhotos being my Spry dataset that points to the relevant XML dataset with my image references and captions etc.  My XML is actually dynamically generated from Picasa RSS feeds (and RSS feeds are XML) but the principle will be the same with your static XML.
    First I add an event listener for when someone clicks on an album (the li tag within my div with the id "albums" holds a photo and title for each album.)
    function Albums()
    var myalbums = Spry.$$("#albums li", "TabbedPanels1")
    var rows = dsAlbums.getData();
    var setListener = function( element, value )
      Spry.Utils.addEventListener( element, "click", function(){ showAlbum( value ); },false );
    for( var i = 0, length = myalbums.length; i < length; i++ )
      setListener( myalbums[i], i );
    Then this is the code which changes the photo album to be shown. (when the user clicks the relevant album)
    function showAlbum(i)
    pauseShow();
    pImage = 'No';
    var rows = dsAlbums.getData();
    var albumid = rows[i]["albumid"];
    var url = "xml/PicasaAphotoFeed.asp?albumid=" + albumid;
    dsPhotos.setURL(url);
    dsPhotos.loadData();
    var rowcount = dsAlbums.getRowCount() - 1;
    var nextalbum;
    var navnext;
    var n;
    The page is here www.thehmc.co.uk/photo5.html is you want to see it in context.
    In your case showAlbum would switch between Frank.xml or Wolfie.xml depending on how you decide to name your xml datasets.
    Regards

  • After a rebuild/repair of my photo library thumbnails are missing for RAW images.

    Every few months I rebuild my iPhoto library to make sure the database stays clean and up to day. This time was different though - after the rebuild/repair of my photo library thumbnails are missing for all RAW images (Canon). Images from other cameras and jpegs are all fine. Only the events with Canon RAW images have no thumbnails.
    I am rebuilding the thumbnails once again but has anyone else seen this issue? Losing thumbnails to RAW images during a rebuild?

    Every few months I rebuild my iPhoto library to make sure the database stays clean and up to day.
    There is no need to do this. It doesn't achieve anything.
    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

  • Can't see event thumbnails

    Hello. Just updated to 7.0.1 and most everything is fine. However, I cannot see the event thumbnails - I just get the "boxes" where the thumbnails should be. Two odd things: 1) when I drag the cursor over the box I get a gradient - light to dark gray, 2) if I scroll down quickly I do see some thumbnails at the bottom of the page but they then disappear. Lastly, the thumbnails are visible when I am in "photo" mode. Any suggestions? Thanks.

  • Photo and thumbnail missing

    I have some old photos that are showing up black, (this happened to them a few versions ago). Is there a way to recover these photos, all the information seems to be ok, just no image.

    I also just upgraded to iPhoto 9.1.2 and have OS X 10.6.7.
    I found this thread because I am missing about a month's worth of photos.  Specifically, the last major upload I did from my camera before I did the iPhoto upgrade.  (Where it asked if it's ok to update the iPhoto database, making it incompatible with older versions of iPhoto.)
    Anyways, I am missing the photos and thumbnails.  If I go to iPhoto and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original, it tries to pull up Time Machine. 
    If I just use Finder to search on the missing photos by file name(I can display the photo meta tags, along with the event names such as my daughter's 5th birthday) then Finder will show the file, with correct date, but as soon as I click on it, it launches iPhoto, and it jumps to a different picture with the same file name (but taken on a
    different date)
    Now get this, this is really bizarre.  Back toiPhoto.  If I scroll slowly through the missing photos, I just see the empty box instead of thumbnails.  But if I scroll quickly, it flashes the thumbnail of the correct photos, but as the scrolling stops, the thumbnails turn back to empty boxes.  For example, I can see the images of my daughter's 5th birthday flash by as I scroll through photos quickly, but as soon as I stop scrolling, the thumbnails and photos are back to their missing status.
    When I first upgraded to iPhoto 9.1.2, I noticed that certain cropped photos I had were missing.  And the currently missing photos were displayed fine.  (At least, the thumbnails were...)  It was only after I kept on clicking around on the missing cropped photos, trying to display the meta tags and additional info, trying to open up the full size pictures and scroll through the photos, that I noticed that suddenly about a month's worth of photos were no longer visible. 
    I have not yet reverted my iPhoto via Time Machine, but I figured I'd ask around before doing so.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

  • Scrubbing event thumbnails on iPhoto

    Hi. I am having problems previewing pictures while scrubbing mouse over event thumbnails. It used to work before, but now when I move the mouse over the thumbnail event nothing happens. Is there a way I can correct this?

    Quit iPhoto, delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and try again.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Event thumbnails are missing

    My event thumbnails has dissapeared but all the pictures are still in them, however one picture appears as the thumbnail in all my events. I have a iphoto libery of 45,000 pictures. Help why and how do I fix this dissaster.
    Thanks

    I found another thread and it looks like basically you're hosed if repair/rebuild doesn't work and you have to re-create all the events:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/11633855#11633855
    suck.
    Anyway I tried Autosplitting Events which split the files (which was great) but just means I need to go through and resort and rename all the of the fracking events again, going back 10+ years.
    <sigh>
    I guess the only good thing for me is that I have a 12 hours flight back to the states, and 12 hours back to the east coast so have ample time to do this, but may switch to another photo program because of this.
    Anyone else if you have any suggestions or ideas to try to fix I'd apprecaite it.
    Any ideas or recommendations on alternative to iphoto would be great. I'm leaning towards picasaweb due to the fb and picasa integration...
    Thanks,

  • OH MY GOD HELP!!! lots of black event thumbnails and lost images with (?)

    I opened iPhoto today and over HALF of my photos events are BLACK! when i go deeper into that event, the thumbnails show (phew), but if i choose an image to enlarge i get a big FAT ( ? ) for an image!!!! WHAT IS GOING ON??? are they gone? i'm freakin out, i've guarded these nearly 4,000 missing photos for years! I have backups of most, but what gives with the black events and question marks?? do i have to delete an event and re-import it?? help!

    Experianced this problem just yesterday. After rebuilding the iPhoto database and all the other options to try and repair it I followed directions to recreate the library which solved the issue. All of the created events will still be retained using this method but I believe any edits made to photos might be lost. Although if you import the modified folder in the same manner as before you should have your edited copies again but I don't think you'll be able to revert to original on them.
    First move your existing iPhoto library from your Pictures folder to the desktop.
    Start iPhoto and tell it to create a new library.
    Ctrl-click your iPhoto library on your desktop and show package contents (might be listed as something else but don't have access to my Mac to check).
    Drag the originals folder from there into the iPhoto window and it should import your photos.
    At that point all should be back as they were. If you've edited a bunch then drag the modified folder in just like you did for the original folder. Then you should see both your edited and the original photos side by side in your library.
    Try the other options first but if nothing works then this certainly does. Even if it's not the best way to do things.

  • How do I move Flagged Photos Event back to original event?

    I made the mistake of thinking that I was making an event from flagged photos within an event.  Instead, it created a Flagged Photos event of photos from ALL my events.  I've read the instructions on how to put them back, but I can't get the events close to each other to drag from one to the other.  Is there another way?  Or can someone explain how to move the Flagged Photos close to the original Event?  I have over 400 that I want back in their original places.
    Thanks!

    If you didn't make a back up then you don't have one. And you should. Immeadiately.
    If you want move photos to a specific Event, flag them, select the target Event and go EVents menu -> Add Flagged Photos to Selected Events

  • I have imported my I photo library into Aperture.  all the old i photo events are now in the aperture library showing number of photos but when clicked none display.  I can see the photos if i run the cursor over the project.  Help please.

    I imported my i photo library into aperture.
    I can see the i photo events in aperture library as events with the number of photos in each event.
    When you click events in the aperture library no photos appear although if you roll the cursor over the event icon it show the photos.  If you click on the event either on the event icon or in the library no photos appear.
    Help

    Check, if you have any filters set. The search fields in the Insector panel and the browser should be showing "All items" or "Showing All".
    The Browser search field could be set for each project and album individually, so you have to check it for each project.
    Regards
    Léonie
    For example: The projects count shows "20 items", but the browser is empty, because the project's filter is set to show only rejected items.

  • Photo events not showing up in alphabetical order

    Hi there all, why aren't my photo events showing up in chronological order? It appears like it starts with events from 2007, then works backwards from there as I scroll down. Then, after it gets through my earliest pics, it gets to my latest stuff. Very odd.
    In iPhoto, they're in chronological order most recent to oldest.
    thanks,
    dp

    Talked to Apple support- we figured it out. In case anyone has the same problem: one of my events in the iMovie events folder was corrupted, once I deleted that file, all was well.
