Photo icons

Hi,
I want to know how to change my photo icon to display the photo as a thumbnail instead of the jpeg/tiff file icon. Please help it's driving me crazy! I am using Mac Os 10.4.11 Thanks : )

Hiya,
The icons are in a folder i have put them in on my hard drive.
I want to be able to see the photos as thumbnails in my finder window. Some are jpegs and some are tiffs. 
No files of this kind show as thumbnails.

  • I'm running iCloud on a Windows 7 PC. Photoes have been autmatically uploaded from my iPhone. However, the "Photoes" ICON does not load, and I receive an error message of a problem. Then the ICON disappears. How can I access my photoes?

  • IPhone iOS 8: Tapping on photo icon in messages app causes app to crash

    Issue (?ios 8 bug?): Tapping on photo icon in messages app causes app to crash. Present in ios 8.0, and also still in ios 8.0.2. iPhone 6+ 64GB.
    I just wondered if anyone else has been having this problem.
    Initially it worked great. Tapping the photo button next to the text box in message should bring up a menu with your latest photos and other sharing options. However, after the first couple of days, tapping the button brought up the menu, the phone freezes, and then after a few seconds the photo app crashes.
    Deleting most of my photos restored the function, but after another couple of days (and some more photos) it started happening again so I think perhaps it is related to the number of photos. After about 5-10 photos it loads the menu very slowly and its quite buggy. After 20+ photos it wont load the menu at all without freezing and the app crashing.
    My iphone 6+ was set up as a new phone (not restored from back-up).
    I hope this is some kind of bug that will be fixed in ios 8.0.3, but wondered if anyone else has the same problem or has any solutions?
    My workaround at the moment is just to go the photos app and either copy and paste the photo into a message, or share the photo via the photos app.

    I have this same issue with my 128 gb 6 plus.  I've tried restoring as new on a few occasions, but to no avail.  I did notice while my pc was synchronizing my apps, that the feature worked fine a few times until the synchronization was complete.  I seriously hope that the numbers of photos limits one's use of the feature, because i purchased the 128 gb 6 plus so that i could keep photos at my ready.
    Has anyone heard of a solution yet?

  • I can no longer view my photos through th photo icon.  There is not an icon on my "slide to unlock" screen that when touched starts a slide show of my photos.  How do I turn that off so I can access my photos as before?

    Oroilore-
    I do not see a way to disable the Picture Frame icon.  I looked at Settings-Picture Frame, but none of the options turns it off.  The only way I can thinik of, would be if all of your photos had been deleted.  If there were no photos, you couldn't have a slide show!
    One thing to try is to reset (reboot) your iPad.  Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow.  The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes.  Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

  • I still don't totally understand the difference on my iPhone between PhotoStream (with iCloud icon), Photos (the icon) and Albums and Camera Roll (under Photos icon) and and Camera Roll (under Camera icon).  I want to delete photos from my iPhone 4.

    I  don’t  understand the difference on my iPhone between PhotoStream (with iCloud icon), Photos (the icon) and Albums and Camera Roll (under Photos icon) and and Camera Roll (under Camera icon).  They seem to be more or less the same thing, but deleting photos in one place does not delete them elsewhere.
    When I tried to import from my camera to my iMac computer the computer would not recognized 900 of the 920 photos on the camera so I had to (successfully) use the Image Capture application to import them.
    I want to delete photos from my iPhone 4 in order to free up storage (I only have 8GB.)  But in synching I do not want to delete any images from my iPhoto on my computer.
    Is there a way that I can Delete All under Edit in either Photos or Camera on my iPhone and check about 20 ijmages to remain on the iPhone?  I could find no command to Select All and then uncheck the 20 photos I want to keep.
    I have the 8GB iPhone and the iMac with OS 10.9.2 and iPhoto '09 Version 8.1.2.
    Help!

    I have Version 6.1.3 because the clogged storage will not allow me to upload Version 7.1.  Catch 22.  This is basically a storage issue, I believe.  I cannot delete enough stuff on my iPhone to allow me to either back up or upload the new OS 7.  I am unwilling to pay for more storage in iCloud, so I want to delete stuff I don't need.  But I haven't yet figured out how to successfully do that.  I synch my phone and computer.  I want to delete mail on the Mail app and photos and still keep my photos on my computer on iPhoto, but not on my phone.  I seem unable to do that.  Any advice?

  • Photo icon has disappeared - how do I get it back?

    I have just accidentally deleted the standard photos icon and have no idea how to get it back. Any advice please?

    The Photos App can't be deleted. You may have moved it to another page or into a folder.
    Try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout to bring it back.

  • Question about photo icons on songs.

    Hey guys, I got a simple question to ask.
    Well, I just got a new 30GB Ipod Video today, and it works fine. However, after I added all of my songs to my ipod, I also wanted to upload the little photo icons next to them as well when you play a song. So I put one photo on an entire album, but then when I disconnected my Ipod, it's not there! Can someone help me?

    Since the iPod might have updated before you applied the artwork you may have to update the iPod again. Press "File"> "update iPod" to update it without having to disconnect and reconnect your iPod.

  • ITunes or iPhoto do not appear when I click the music or photo icons

    I wish to add music & photos to my production in iMovie. But when I click the music or photo icons, iTunes and iPhotoe do not appear in the boxes that open. I can have them open in another window and drag them in, but this is not what is supposed to happen, what can I do ?

    Do you mean you have checked the box: "Always use private browsing mode"? If so, it's intentional that the private browsing icon isn't displayed as we didn't want Firefox to be showing everyone within view that you're using private browsing mode IIRC.
    There are some easy things you can do to confirm that you are in private browsing mode such as visiting a new website and then confirming it doesn't appear in the history window.

  • I deleted my Photos icon in pictures?

    I backed up all of my photos to an external hard drive. I then deleted all of my photos on my Mac. I must have deleted the Photo's icon and cannot get iCloud photos up and running. How do I reinstall this? The reason that I did this was that I wanted to initiate iCloud storage without having to upgrade the amount of storage that I needed. I was thinking that I would store all of my photos on backup and then bring only the ones that I wanted back onto Mac to stay under the 20g storage limit.
    I am currently bringing all of the contents from my photos folder from a backup from Time Machine that occurred yesterday. I am hoping that this is all that is needed to be done. Any suggestions?
    P.S. I tried just bringing the "Photos" icon from my HD back up into Pictures on my Mac and that did not work.
    Thanks.

    All, I have apparently resolved this after performing the backup of all of my picture files from my Time Machine backup. The Photos program is currently "repairing."

  • TS4022 why when i log in to my icloud account is there not the photo icon?

    Hi,
    Right I'm fairly new to this and a bit behind on current technology.
    In simple terms is Icloud a website that i can log on to on any computer? And if i do will i find all of my photos and phone information on my account?
    If so, when i log on to my icloud account there are only four icons avaliable to me. 1. Contact, 2.Mail, 3.Find my iphone and 4.I works.
    Why isnt the photo icon avaliable so i can click on it and see all of my photos?
    Sorry that this is probably a basic question.
    Cheers
    Lau's

    The link shown in your image is to the Service Plan page for the Connect account (which most likely shows as a white page or throws an error). The server URL you listed above is active and working, but you may just need to log into the server, and then select the desired meeting room. Meeting room URLs should have something after your server URL, for example: meet18787284.adobeconnect.com/myroom

  • Missing Photos Icon in IOS 8

    I upgraded and iPad 4 (retina) to IOS 8 and when I went to iPhoto it requested to upgrade the pictures to Photo or exit.  I upgraded to Photo and then deleted the iPhoto icon.  However, I can not find a Photo icon anywhere.  I can go to the Camera app and access Photo or I can go into a supported app and send to Photo, but there is no Photo icon to be found.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    You can enter new and edit old contacts directly from the Phone app. Open Phone and then tap Contacts at the bottom of the screen. To add new tap + at top right.
    I never use the Contacts App itself, but you should have one. If I remember correctly it was by default on the 2nd home screen or in a folder -- but I could be wrong because I haven't used it in years so I may have moved it somewhere in a folder on the 2nd screen to get it out of the way. If you want to use it and can't find it, another way is to open Spotlight Search by swiping down with one finger on the home screen (don't start the swipe at the very top of the screen or it will open Notifications instead of search).

  • In trying to put a photo icon in my dock, I lost all my photo albums and can't get them back.  Please help.

    I tried to put a photo icon on my desktip dock.  In doing so, I have lost all my photos file, every album, every photo.  Can anyone help me retrieve them in their album form?

    As I said for iTunes purchases:
    See:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    For other music you have to get them from where you originally obtained them.

  • HT5824 i have posted my pictures on I cloud, I am not getting the photo icon on my Icloud desk top computer, how can see my picture on I cloud on my desk top computer?

    I have posted picutre I took from my I phone, and have posted them on I cloud, I am unablet to view those picture on my

    If you delete photo stream photos from your phone they will be deleted from the my photo stream album on your PC.  Before doing that, be sure to copy or move them to a different folder on your computer.
    Deleting camera roll photos won't delete anything from your computer.  If you import them to your computer using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083, you will get an option to delete them from your phone after they are imported.

  • How do I get the Photo icon back to my home screen?

    How do I get the Photo icon back to my home screen?  I don't know how I managed this - but my lovely 'happy' photo icon is gone from my home screen and I can only access it through the double click - I would like it back on the home screen...any ideas???

    You looked on every page & in every folder(if you have folders)? Still don't see it? If so: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout...see if you see it now.

  • Photo icons and the inbox- Mountain Lion

    Hi I just upgraded to Mountain Lion and am liking  some of these features a lot.  One thing I am wondering about: do I have to attach a photo/icon to an actual contact to be able to get the associated photo with incoming mail?  In other words, do I have to have a contact set up to choose a photo associated with a particular sender?  I receive a lot of  incoming mail that I don't need to have contacts established for but would like to see an icon/photo pop up on the left with the mail.
    Anyone?
    P

    Yes, you would need to have the sender in your collection of contacts, and you would need to assign some image to that contact.  If you are the visual type, it's a great feature.  It may take some time to set up, but it can be a fast way to scan through your mail, other than doing a "search".  I use the contact image feature all the time.  I made a folder of images in my picture file to use in addition to those Apple gives you.  For most companies, you can do a Google image search and find their logo, which will usually fit perfectly in the image frame used in your contacts. (You're not taking their logo for profit; you're using it to identify the messages they send you.)  Or find other gifs and jpegs through the same image search to give a more personal touch to your contacts.  Find an image that identifies a hobby, a job related tool, or whatever reminds you of that contact.  Use the same image over again for contacts that are related in some respect-- online shops, accounts, co-workers on a project, etc.  It's probably not something everyone is going to take the time to customize, but as I said, if you are visual, it's worth the time.  By the way, the images don't suddenly appear in your mail as soon as you assign them to a contact.  Set up your contacts and images, close your mail app, and then re-open it.  There they are.  If you have a contact that has multiple addresses they send from, just copy and paste those extra addresses to the same contact page. Set up the ones you tend to save the most. Don't bother with the ones you consider junk mail.  You probably don't want them in your contacts.  As you receive other mail from senders that you do care about saving, add those to your contacts and assign some image.
