Photoshop pics not displaying in iphoto 08

Photoshop pictures are not displaying. Just a black photo appears. However, the photos do appear normal in Apple Preview. Why is this?

scubanut
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild the thumbnails.
I can't tell the difference b/n the black and white image that our photographer created in photoshop and the photos that I create in iphoto using the effects black and white feature. I've heard there is a difference and was wondering whether I would notice it more when I printed
I have no idea what such a difference might be, nor would I expect there to be one - but print a couple and compare.

  • IMovie '08 not displaying my iPhoto videos

    For some or other reason iMovie '08 does not display my iPhoto videos. Even when I do a seperate import using the file import feature and browse my iPhoto video library, do I still not end up with a selection of my imported iPhoto videos. What is causing this? I thought at first the movie files' format might not be compatible but using finder I can clearly see that the movies recorded from my Sony DSC-N1 camera are MPEG file formats. Shouldn't these files show up automatically in iMovie if they are in my iPhoto library?
    I have created separate albums in iPhoto, making sure that the movies that ere in the events section are also in the corresponding album but still the movies do not show up in iMovie. This is extremely frustrating so I hope someone could help me with this one.
    Many thanks.

    Shouldn't these files show up automatically in iMovie if they are in my iPhoto library?
    No. The N1, like most Cyber-shot digital cameras by Sony, employs MPEG VX (MPEG-1) storage of video clips. MPEG-1 files are "playback only" QT supported. This means that they are neither "edit" compatible with iMovie '08 nor are they conversion compatible by the QT structure alone. (I.e., QT applications will drop the audio track if used to convert the clips.) In this case use any of the readily available MPEG-based, third-party applications available on line -- iSquint (free), MPEG Streamclip (free), FFmpegX (donation-ware), Visual Hub (pay-ware), etc. to convert these files to an iMovie '08 compatible compression format. Non-proprietary versions of DV, AIC, M-JPEG, Photo-JPEG, MPEG-4, and H.264 compression format have all been found to be "edit" compatible with iMovie '08 as long as the file container does not contain "extraneous" tracks (e.g., a "Tween" track in the MOV file container). DO NOT IMPORT Apple Animation or Apple Video files. They will import and edit in an apparently normal fashion but will only export the audio with a "black" screen display.

  • Why are my new iPhone 4S photos not displayed in iPhoto?

    I have just started using a new iPhone 4S and have taken photos that will not display in iPhoto.  My previous iPhone 3GS worked fine, but now the image files from the new iPhone 4S show as dashed outlined files with the file numbers showing. But when I try to import them, they are indicated as unreadable. What is the problem and what's my next step?

    Type "iphone not recognized in itunes" into the search bar at the top of this page by "Support" and read the resulting help articles.

  • 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?

  • ICloud Photostream pics not displaying

    Okay,  so I've successfully converted my iPhoto library, made the Photos library my "system" library and activated only "My Photo Stream" in Photo's Preferences. On my iPhone, I have 336 pics in my Photo Stream. Photos says 252 and is not displaying many pics. I can click on them and open the blank spaces but they are not being displayed. ??? See screen shot.
    I've disabled/re-enabled iCloud Photo Stream in Photos and rebooted (re-logged in to icloud) but no joy. Anyone else experiencing this?  
    The version of Photos says it all.... 1.0. We're starting all over again folks...

    Hi jgraffunder,
    So the switch you are referring to is:
    If so, then the fact that you have iCloud set up on your Mac implies that you may need to update iPhoto. What version of iPhoto are you running?
    Cheers,

  • Albums not displaying in iPhoto 11

    I upgraded to iPhoto 11. My pictures were not displaying and I imported  them.  I now know I never should have done that. The photos show but the albums are gone. I have a bacupk of my iPhoto library from the old version of iPhoto.  Can I use the library from my backup and have the photos and albums display in iPhoto 11?

    Do  you mean Event or Album. If they all are in one Event you have two options:
    1 - restore a backup copy of your library from just before the problem occurred.
    2 - set the Autosplit option to what you want in the iPhoto General preference pane.
    3 - in the Event mode select the Event.
    4 - use the Events ➙ Autosplit Selected Events menu option.

  • ICamera photos are not displayed in iPhoto

    HI!
    I have a big problem: Whan I make photos with the included camera in my iPad,
    these photos are not displayed in the iPhoto app supplied with my iPad. I can't find
    them.
    I'm using IOS 5.0.1.
    Any help? PLEASE!!!

    After you snap the photo with the iPad, and that picture shrinks down to the corner, you should ba able to tap that little picture - and it should open in the Camera Roll in the Photos app.
    I'm not sure what to suggest other than the basic, first try, troubleshooting steps.
    Quit the camera app and restart. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Tiff (or tif) file created in Photoshop is not displaying in Firefox 2 or 3 with Quicktime plugin

    I embedded a tiff file that was created in Photoshop but it is not displaying in Quicktime/Firefox.
    It works in other browsers but not Firefox 2 or 3. And another point is that if the Tiff file is created in any other graphics application then it works!
    It leads me to think that Photoshop might be adding some metadata to the file that Quicktime/Firefox is not liking.
    Any ideas on what might fix this?

    There are different types of TIF files with different kinds of contents (compression schemes, channels, bit depths, etc). It is no surprise that you might get different results with different browsers/plugins.
    What kind of TIFF are you using? Why are you not using a more standard web image format that does not require the overhead and hassle of an optional plugin?

  • Trial version of photoshop will not display picture, why?

    Two days ago I downloaded a trial of Photoshop Creative Cloud.  I played for a bit then suddenly the pictures I brought into photoshop would only display in the side bar while the normal display area had a blank transparency.  Anyone have any ideas as to why?

  • GPS location on iPhone 4 pics does not displaying in iPhoto Places

    I recently upgraded to an iPhone 4, and I noticed that the pictures I've taken do not seem to contain GPS location information. I was hoping to use them to geotag my pictures and access them via iPhoto Places feature, but they do not have any location info.  I have turned "On" location services for the camera. 

    Problem solved - the information was not transferred with the photos when I uploaded them to Dropbox via PhotoSync app and then downloaded them to my iMac.  Not sure where the info got dropped, but it was in the original files so I was able to recover it.

  • Photoshop CC not displaying 30bit color

    PS CC does not seem to display 30bit color as per the Ramp.psd file from AMD. PS CS6 displays 30bit color just fine.

    http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2012/07/photoshop-basic-troubleshooting-steps-to-fix-mos t-issues.html
    As for the specifics:
    The image size is 4.31M. If I go to double the size and change nothing else, the image size jumps up to a whopping 17.2M.
    If you double the dimensions of an image the area is increased fourfold – so what is the problem there?
    The image dimensions are 500px x 135px, 300DPI, 8bit, RGB color. This is at 100% zoom. Those are the settings I normally use, but for some reason it’s showing the file as about half of the size it should be. (Tumblr post for comparison—they are 500px wide.)
    The introduction or Retina (and other high resolution) displays and browsers actually up-scaling images to accommodate those screen resolutions seems to have confused some users about the concept of pixels.
    Could you please post a full size screenshot on this Forum of the image at View > 100% in Photoshop and on tumblr?

  • Camera Roll pics not showing in iPhoto....

    Plus, I read somewhere here about deleting any pics in Camera Roll that I didn't take with the iPhone 3G, so I deleted the picture that normally shows on the iPhone when it wakes up and I still can't get my photos taken with the 3G to appear (as they always did until just now) in iPhoto 8x for importing. I don't think I did anything unusual to cause this problem, so don't know how to fix it. I will try repairing disk permissions just in case but can't imagine that will change things. Please...can someone help!?

    yes.....because someone had a similar problem (of iPhoto not importing from iPhone 3GS) that was solved by removing the wallpaper picture from the Camera Roll (hope I can get it back somehow!). It didn't import before I deleted the wallpaper pic and it doesn't import now. Strange....it always opened iPhoto and asked to import when I plugged in the iPhone before now.

  • Photoshop edits not saved in iPhoto

    I've set up Photoshop CS4 as my external editor in iPhoto, and this has been working well for quite a while. I usually edit in Photoshop and save over the original (both jpeg files) in iPhoto. However, today I noticed that my edited work was not showing up in the gallery view (i.e. even after saving over, the original version of the photo was shown in my gallery). On close-up I can view the edited photo, but once I edit another photo the previous photo I edited reverts to its original form. I've tried repairing the library and permissions by pressing option + command on startup, but the problem still remains. None of my edited work is saved once I close and reopen iPhoto. Please help! :-(

    You are saving as a jpg (if the original file is a jpg), right? Check this workflow and see if you're doing anything significantly different than what's described.  Screenshots are from Photoshop CS3 but should be similar to later versions.
    Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Screenshots are from PSE 10
    Note 1:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.
    Note 2:  editing a RAW file with either PSE or PS creates a new file which must be saved outside of iPhoto, i.e. the Desktop, and imported as a new photo into the iPhoto Library.

  • IPhoto pics not appearing in iphoto folder in finder

    Hi
    I'm unable to find my pics in the iphoto folder in Finder.  They are definitely in iPhoto but it as though the two are not in sync.  So when I want to upload a photo to my facebook profile, for instance, I can't find the photos in the iphoto folder that are on the iphoto software.  I think this is a recent development, possibly since I upgraded to Lion but I can't be sure.  I've definitely been able to access my pics via the Finder folder before.
    Help!
    Cheers!
    Steve

    What version of iPhoto did you have before upgrading to Lion?  Ever since iPhoto 8 the iPhoto library has been a closed Unix folder/package and we've not been able to open it in with the Finder.
    Yhe following is from a post by Terence Devlin on accessing photos for use outside of iPhoto.  It's the definitive treatise on the subject.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running: 
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation   which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3.Show File:
    a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 
    b. On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 
    iPhoto 11 has a Facebook option with which you can upload directly to FB.
