Photos Locked

Hi, I have a MacBook Air with OS X 10.9.5. I have began to use Time Machine to do the backup of the HD and all my photos appear as locked and I cannot unlock them. I want to delete some photos and cannot do that. I read that in the preference panel of the Time Machine I check unlock box and the problem was solved, but I do not have an unlock box to check, even more I do not know if the problem is generated by using Time Machine. 
Can you help me please?
Thanks in advance!!!
Horacio

Hi,
Thank you for contact me. Please find below the screenshot of the Time Machine panel. You can see that there is not a box I can check to unlock the pictures. At the end of this message you can find a screenshot of a picture where says that is locked. I want to unlock the pictures, but I do not know how to do that.
Thanks in advance for your help

    More than likely you can get the phone back by doing a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot.

  • HELP!  Photos locked and can't delete in Windows 7/PSE8

    Hello,
    Appreciate any and all help!  Not a computer gal.....
    Have a 3 day old Dell Studio XPS 8100 with Windows 7.
    Using an external drive transferred from my former Dell.
    Loaded new Photoshop Elements 8.
    Can access and edit my photos just fine...
    but when I go to delete a photo and/or override a photo with an edited version, I get an error message that
    MY FILE IS LOCKED.
    HELP???
    Deal with thousands of photos a month--don't have time for another step--just need to delete or save and delete former version.
    Talked with Dell and Microsoft but they claim I need to "buy software support."?!?!?!?!?
    The Microsoft guy seemed to imply that there is some fix --and the Dell guy thought there was some security thing in WIndows 7 preventing the deletion.
    Please...any ideas!!!  Spent HOURS on this already!
    Thanks,
    Krista in Chicago

    I had the same problem.  I am not exactly sure which changes that I did were the actual ones that solved the problem but here is what I did.  I went to the highest folder (in my case the whole drive) in Windows Explorer (The Folder icon) and right clicked on  the drive to get the Properties dialog box.  I then selected Security.  I highlighted Everyone and clicked on Edit and then gave Everyone permissions for everything (probably laying my drive wide openfor any viruses floating around).  I also found that all of the files and folders were marked Read Only so I removed that from all files and folderss.  That seems to have solved the problem.  This solves the immediate problem.  I am not sure if this is what is recommended for security purposes.

  • Photos locked in discontinued, unsupported edition of Photoshop

    Was uploading photos from Iphone; they were sent erroneously to Photo Album Starter Edition Edition 3.2, instead of My Documents. Cannot retrieve them due to: deadline to register has passed, they are locked in & (again) too late to get an unlock code, and that edition is ineligible for an upgrade. Registry window pops up when site opens and will not let me do anything on the site. When prompted whether or not I wanted to delete photos from my Iphone I clicked "NO", and photos were deleted anyway. Also, tech support will not help me in any way, stating that edition was no longer supported by Adobe...he gave me this site. Can anyone help me with this issue?

    This document might help.

  • Photos locked after i download from Icloud.

    When i download my photos to my PC from the icloud they are locked with a little lock symbol and it wont let me change them or save them. Is there a way that they wont be locked.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
    When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from.

  • Are 'floating' photos (locked) acceptable for ibook publishing to ibookstore

    I'm using ibook author template to sell it in the ibookstore.
    The pdf I formatted had 'floating (locked)' photos that were not transferable to EPUB.
    Can I use floating photos and replace some of the background page colors (fill), lock them in and have that be okay with ibook?
    Just making sure before I transfer and reformat it all.
    Thanks!

    PDFs cannot be imported/inserted in toto.
    If you want to use segregated resources, it's up to you to weed them out of the sourced PDF and bring them in accordingly.

  • Corrupted Directory leaving photos locked in the Library

    When transferring Photos from from my camera, the camera battery collapsed and the transfer corrupted the library. The file is still some 20GBytes so there must be something there but iPhoto comes up with a bank screen.
    Can anybody help reconnect me with my photos

    Try Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and point it at the Library. If iPhoto sees a valid library there it will open it.
    If that fails:
    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

  • Photos Locks Up When Attempting to Share in iCloud

    I've been trying to post some photos to iCloud from Photos on my iPad and every time I get to the point of sharing, the Photos App freezes.  I'm able to share photos via email, message, twitter, facebook, etc.  The only time I have a problem is with iCloud.
    Here are the steps that I follow:
    1.  Open Photos
    2.  Select one or more pictures
    3.  Select the Sharing icon.
    4.  Several icons appear: Message, Mail, iCloud Photo Sharing, Twitter, etc.
    5.  When I select iCloud Photo Sharing, the Photos app freezes.  The only way to get back to Photos is to close the app and restart it by double-clicking the home button and then up-swiping the frozen app.
    In Settings, I have turned on iCloud Photo Sharing.  I have experiemented with also turning on My Photo Stream and iCloud Photo Library (Beta) and the results are always the same - the app freezes.
    I am able to share photos to iCloud from my iPhone 4s and have seen them appear on the iPad.
    The iPad is an Air and is running iOS 8.1.2.

    hmmmmm.
    with the diagnostics freeze, is it a permanent freeze, or does it go away after a few minutes?
    (thinking here that it would be good to see those diagnostics if at all possible.)

  • IPod Photo Locked Up

    Yesterday I was charging my iPod with my laptop.
    I shut down my PC (XP if it matters)and took my iPod which showed no songs.
    I held down the menu and center click button and it started to restart then locked.
    Now I just have the Apple screen.
    I let the battery run out and tried to reboot it again but nothing.
    I can't connect to my PC to update or restore or anything.
    Any ideas?
    I use Anapod and HATE iTunes but I did install 7.1 for the updater to no avail.
    Thanks.
    Toshiba Laptop   Windows XP Pro  

    I downloaded a tune from iTunes and connected my iPod to my computer for the song to be updated and these are my current symptoms:
    "Do not disconnect" on iPod face.
    "iPod update is complete" on my computer's iTunes.
    Upon attempt at "eject", "The ipod cannot be ejected because it contains files that are in use by another appication."
    So now what could this mean in addition to the previous?
    Reset was completed prior to this charging and loading.

  • Update to may photos locked up at 7 of 7 99% how do I correct this

    I did an automatic update and it prompted me that it needed to update my database. I did this but it locks up a Step 7 of 7, 99% complete how do I correct this and get back into aperature.

    Force quit.  Reboot.  Repair your Library.  (Here are Apple's instructions for Repairing.)
    Many have had this problem (scan recent posts here in Aperture discussions).  Afaik, the above has worked for everyone.

  • My 4s is locking up. Seems no reason all all. All apps up to date. Facebook locks up. Photo locks up. It works for awhile then nothing. Replacement only alternative or do I have an Apple virus?

    It works for awhile then nothing. Replacement only alternative or do I have an Apple virus?

    Try resetting it: hold the on/off and home buttons simultaneously for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), release and wait for the phone to restart.

    i've tried the application loader in desktop manager.
    taken the battery out and back in.
    Does anyone have any suggestions for me before i throw the phone out my window????
    What happened when you tried putting different battery in it? Did you ask to borrow one to test from the carrier?
    Or did you purchase a new battery and try it?
    Do you have the right battery for this series phone  and is it an OEM Blackberry battery?
    See the picture below to make sure you have the right battery (note label color)
    Let us know.

  • HT4858 how can i set a restriction to my photo album

    Hii there... did anyone know how to set a restriction onto the Photo album / Camera Roll..?

    You would need to use an app to do this, such as https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hide-photos-lock-videos-keep/id510873505?mt=8 or https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/private-photo-vault-ultimate/id417571834?mt=8.
