Photos in Folders not displaying picture!?

I’m having a strange problem that keeps getting worse.
Currently I’m transferring thousands of photos from an external hard drive to Iphoto. However, the photos on my external hard drive, in folders, only show the “JPEG” logo and not the actual picture, making it impossible to organize anything. If I log out or restart my computer, the photos will again, for a while, be visible, but eventually (sometimes just a few minutes) all the photos will again only show the JPEG logo. This seems to be happening more and more frequently and is extremely aggravating. Could someone please help me fix this issue??

Nobody else has ever had this problem?

Photo's are not displayed in iPhoto

I can see Events and can click on them to see pictures, but when I click on the individual photos, they are not displayed, although I can see them in the "filmstrip' at the bottom of the screen. iPhoto will show the names if someone is tagged in the photo.
Using osx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 11. Everything has worked just fine for several years, but suddenly this started happening. It appears it took place after my last download of photos from my iPhone since that is the last time I used iPhoto.

There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: 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 check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: 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.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help:
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Third party apps will not display pictures upon OS upgrade

Hi
I recently upgraded my 8520 to OS 5 and I've noticed that my Time Mobile App and Viigo will not display pictures in the articles or news feeds anymore. I've tried the apps support but no luck.
Is there a possible solution for this?

I don't know about Time Mobile, but I noticed that Viigo started having some issues with displaying photos correctly a while back after an OS update as well. One suggestion you can try is to simply do a battery pull - while the phone is on, remove the battery for 15-30 seconds and reinsert. After the phone has rebooted, see if you have any better luck.
Now then, Viigo is still intermittent for me - some feeds load pictures no problem, while others have a lot of issues (or simply don't load pictures period). My guess is that there is something that changed slightly in the OS update that is influencing how pictures are downloaded from the internet and to these apps. Unfortunately there is little that can be done though unless the developer(s) update their apps as well.

Photo App does not display all photos

Running iOS 7.0.4 on an iPhone 4S. The new Photo App does not display all photos properly. All photos show up as thumbnails. However, when you tap on some of them, only a blank page is displayed. The rest is fine. This issue started after the upgrade to iOS 7. Is this a bug? Hardware-related?

Upon closer inspection it appears that the missing photos are in a folder called IPhoto Library. This folder is greyed out when I choose the import folder.
When I use 'show package contents' it reveals the missing photos (below). Why is my iphoto library so scrambled! Thanks for any insight.

Photo size is not displayed accurately

After cropping a photo to 4x6 it displays as 3.5 x 7 This makes the photo distorted. How do I fix the display to be accurate? People look shorter and fatter? Help!

Photo comes from Nikon SLR camera disk and I was cropping photos size to 4x6. (Photoshop Elements 10) I had been using Photoshop Elements 7 prior to this and never had this problem. I pulled up some photos that I cropped in Photoshop Elements 7 last year and the measurement are correct when I pulled them up in Photoshop 10. I just can not figure out why the photos using the 4x6 mode in Elements 10 are coming out as 3.5 x7 Any ideas? Merribeth

Websites with flash photo galleries do not display photos in firefox.

I manage several websites that use the 'expose' photo gallery. Expose uses flash to display photos in the photo galleries. When you go to one of these web sites and click on the photo gallery link, the photos are not displayed, the page shows the gallery buttons but no photos. Using Internet Explorer or Chrome browsers, the photo galleries work fine. Here are 3 web sites to view;
www.wishardgallery.com - click on photo gallery
www.applemanart.com - click on art gallery
www.jewelimages.com - click on any of the gallery links on the left menu
Do the same with IE or Chrome to see the photos displayed.

Some galleries are displayed via JavaScript, so if they aren't working the make sure that you aren't blocking JavaScript.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key). 
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

Desktop Folders not displaying content?

One of my Designers has developed the following issue on his G5.
Folders on his desktop do NOT display all items contained in it? He may see nothing at all or only partial items?
However, if I take the Desktop over remotely (Chicken VNC) I see all items as normal.
Also, if folder contents are viewed through an Application "Browse" (Photoshop, Illustrator Etc) all items display as well.
I thought this may have been a RAM issue so I doubled what was in the MAC with no results
Obviously this is driving me batty and numerous searches on the forum her and elsewhere have generated no results. So I'm reaching out to the Apple masses
Specs:
G5 2 GHz DualCore
4.5GB RAM

So your designer at that workstation logs in using the same account as you?
If the designer is using a different account, that account would be the Owner his Desktop folder and any new files he creates. A GetInfo on a particular folder or file will show the owner and what group access is allowed.
For backup purposes, i set up my small networks so that each user is the owner of their own files, but the Admin group has read access (so I can see and copy the files to a Backup device).
Also, starting in 10.5, what appears to be the same account gets differentiated on each workstation, so Admin at one station will not be the same as Admin at another.

Photos page does not display photos in some browsers

Hi All:
I published my "Photos" page,
http://web.mac.com/funkyoldude/
It appears to work fine on Opera v. 9.24, Firefox v.2.0.0.7, and Safari v. 2.0.4.
It does not display my photos on Mac IE v. 5.2, AOL v.10.3, and Mozilla v. 1.7.13
On these browsers I get the message:
# Exception: ReferenceError
# Message : detectBrowser is not defined
Any ideas? That's a lot of folks that can't view my webpage.

Hi
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Best way to reach Apple is to send a Bug Report via the Safari Menu>Report Bugs to Apple. While Apple doesn't respond directly to these notes, the information gets in the hands of Software Engineers at Cupertino.
Specific to the referenced site, there are multiple code errors, which would contribute to the rendering problem. Safari is a lot more specific about following correct code than other browsers. I suggest passing the Validation report on to the site developers. Good code practices (W3) makes for better uniformity and security on the Internet.

Mail does not display pictures in MT Lion

I do not get pictures in Mt. Lion. I have tried the html selection both checked and unchecked to no avail.
For other mail I get a link to display in browser, previously it displayed in the body of the email.
Is this an added "benefit" of Mt. Lion or am i missing something?
I need some detailed help to restore mail 6.2 to respond as it previously did.

I am at a loss here! Mail should by default automatically 'download' the pics inline (sometimes with a big file that takes some time). I have no idea whether the att.net email server has any special settings that are required, if at all. Why not try deleting the account inside of Mail on your MBPro and recreating it again from scratch just to see whether it works!

Library Photos images suddenly not displayed, though they are available

I have been running Aperture 3.1.3 under OS 10.6.8 on an iMac for many months. Suddenly there is a problem: at the far left of my Aperture window is a vertical band in which there are tabs for Library, Metadata and Adjustments. The Library tab (the Library Inspector) shows at the top the choices Projects, Faces, Places, Flagged and Trash. Below that are various projects and albums. The problem now is with the display of images in the Photos item.
Hitherto when I select Photos in the Library Inspector the large right hand side of the window, the Projects Viewer?, will display thumbnails of all my thousands of stored images. I use the Browser display to see them. But today, in trying to set up yet another Smart Album to display images that have a particular keyword somehow I have entered the Smart Album criteria as limits on what images are displayed when I select the Photos choice. My images are all still in their libraries, and I can see them correctly in all my many folders and smart albums, and in Projects and Faces I see everything , and Aperture functions as always, but when I select the Photos of the Library (that is, I place the cursor over the word "Photos" and click to highlight it), I see only three images, all of which have the properties I was trying to create a smart album for. Hitherto I would see thousands of images.
The user manual says that selecting Photos will show all images in the library, just as selecting Projects will make all the projects appear (and they do) .The Library Inspector search field is empty. It says All Items. There is a search box at the top right of the Display window. It is empty. It says Showing All. Next to it there is a camera icon , and it has no selection checked. In fact, the three displayed images are exactly what will be selected if I check one of the keywords, but I have unchecked it. My belief is that I inadvertently checked the keyword here, and now for some reason the system does not accept that it is unchecked, although the check mark is not seen.
I have quit and restarted Aperture, and I have rebooted the iMac. Nothing helped. How can I reset the criteria for displaying Photos?

You may have an ivisible filter on your "Photos" View - try the "Double Double Reverse Caggiano"; see this user tip:
Images not appearing in browser, search filter is cleared

Help! My Safari shortcuts do not display pictures of the page anymore on my iPad.

I use shortcuts from web pages for various reasons and after a recent update, when I try adding shortcuts to my home screen they no longer display photos of the page but ugly white boxes with lines throughout. The previous pages I have shortcuts to all still have a photo of the page on their thumbnail but the new ones I am trying to add do not. I have tried deleting and readding the shortcuts, restarting Safari, restarting my iPad, and restoring from a back up. None of these have worked though. Is there something I am doing wrong? A setting that needs to be changed? A new way of adding shortcuts from Safari? I am in charge of the iPads for my work and I cannot get any of them to have pictures for the thumbnail instead of the awful ugly white square with lines (7 total iPad2s having the same problem). Please help! Thank you!

I actually fixed it now, don't worry, I just followed this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKFFFe0r-T4
