Picture won't show up in my Photo Album; big white blank rectangle space

There is a picture of Sammy Lee, the Olympic Gold Medalist diver, that refuses to show up in one of my Photo Albums on Safari.
I have done everything that everyone has taught me. I have cleared the cache many times. I have clicked onto a site ourside my own site (actually Allyson's site about the tips for iWeb). I have published all to .Mac. The photo still shows up as a white rectangular space.
It is not like other times when a photo doesn't show up, because in those cases, there is a question mark in a blue box. With this case, there is no question mark inside a blue box. There is only a white space where the picture would be/was.
I even went back to iPhoto and put in another copy of that picture, all to no avail.
QUESTION:
What else can I do to make the picture show up on my Photo Album page?

I think it could be the comma causing the problem, actually. Here is a line from the slideshow.html file
new SlideImage('http://web.mac.com/lorna6/iWeb/Lorna%20x%203/395844EC-4CEE-4545-8AD 3-7E66F83391ECfiles/W%3ASammy%20Lee,%20swimmer2.jpg', 321, 450, 'With Sammy Lee, Olympic champion diver & Gold Medalist. He went on to coach Greg Louganis. At L.A.U.S.D., Office of Bilingual Instruction (It no longer goes by that name.) Mid-80’s'),
The colon has transferred ok, but there are a lot of commas used in the code to call up the photos in the slideshow and the comma in the file name (and, possibly, the caption) could be causing some problems.
I don't know enough about this to know for sure (need to consult a higher source...), but it sure couldn't hurt removing it to see if it helps.

HELP!! My picture won't show up on photostream

I took a picture with my iphone 5s. The picture shows up in the bottom left corner when I'm on camera view, but when I click on it, the picture doesn't show up. It takes me to the picture I took before the most recent one. I tried going to my photos app, but it doesn't show up there either. I know the picture took because I can see it in my camera view, but I can't seem to find it anywhere and it's really frustrating. Any picture I take now shows up in my photostream, except for that one picture that I want. I tried turning my phone on and off, and I tried connecting it to my computer and syncing the pictures. I've also tried using dropbox but that didn't work either. Someone PLEASE help me, I'm desperate. I've tried just about everything I can think of.

I know you say you have tried everything, but sometimes people miss steps, so do all of this (Even if you have done it do it again)
Try the 5R's (You might not be able to do "Restore" thats OK) http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
THen connect the ipod and see if it list in iTUens OR in windows under "My Computer" as IPOD or Removable storage.

Aperture pictures won't show up in finder/itunes

I was recently having some weird issues with my OS. So I backed up all my files, did a clean install, and manually moved everything back into place. Everything seemed to be working great. I didn't realize it until today when I tried to put some pictures on my new iPad, but I cannot access my pictures in iTunes to put on my iPad or through finder (photos) to upload to something like facebook.
When I try to upload pictures to my iPad it says:
your aperture library could not be found. Open the preference window in Aperture and enable the preference to share previews with other applications.
Went and checked the preferences in aperture and it shows always allow.
When I go to upload a picture to facebook or Flickr I choose photos and the only option is iPhoto, no aperture.
Any suggestions?

Think I spoke too soon. I just synced 7000 photos with my Apple TV and thought everything was good to go. Now I just took some more pictures and imported them into Aperture and now iTunes says my Aperture Library has 0 photos! I repeated this routine of switching to an empty library and back, but it doesn't work any more!!! Help!

Photos not showing up in my photo album

I am using an Iphone 3g OS 3.0. All of a sudden any pictures i take, or pictures that i save from the internet are not showing up when i open my photo album. however when i look at my photo album screen it shows that i have more pictures in my album than are actually in my album. It says i have 307 photos but when i open the album it only shows that i have 292 photos.
Can anyone shed some light on this issue?

Same thing here. 3GS and OS 3.1 and cannot sync camera roll with iphoto. Doesnt even open iphoto anymore. Have tried all resetting and reinstalling but nothing. Living with emailing photos from phone to laptop and from there downloading into iphoto as the only way to save taken photos.
I thought it was me but now see its a more general problem.
ANy ideas?

Photos showing up in Wallpaper Photo Album, but not Main Photo Album

I just switched to iPhone - love it. Just transferred all of my photos from my old device into my iPhone via iTunes. They show they are in the iPhone when I check the iTunes capacity at the bottom, and they all show up as options for my wallpaper in the wallpaper settings. However, when I just go to the Photos app on my main screen they aren't in the Photo Album there (not the camera roll either but I expected that).
Thoughts on this? Did I do something wrong in the transfer? None of the files are corrupt - I was able to open them all in the wallpaper area but they just aren't available in the normal photo album.
Thanks

How did you correct this issue? i am having the same issue!

How do you select some pictures as opposed to an entire in Photo Album

I am Trying out Light room and so far notfinding it not very friendly. when I open a Folder of pictures. even though Ichoose certain one to create a Photo Album to put on a Website it wants to put everything in not just what I select.

You select an image by clicking on it - either in the Grid View or in the filmstrip at the bottom.
You can select more than one image by clicking on the first image and then Ctrl / Cmd + click on the additional images (i.e. hold down Ctrl / Cmd and click on the additional while Ctrl / Cmd is still pressed).
Alternatively you can click on the first image and then Shift + click on the last one to select the first, the last and everything in between.
If multiple images are selected, only one of them is active. It has a lighter shade of grey.
See the image in tyhis thread that explains it: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5180996#5180996

HELP! Just got iPhoto 6 w/ my Tiger upgrade, and pictures won't show up

Last week, my 1 1/2 year old Powerbook G4 was having issues that eventually led to me having to replace the hard drive. The new hard drive came with the Tiger OS (was previously on Panther) and the new iLife suite, including iPhoto 6. All of my photos, music, and documents were able to be transferred to the new hard drive.
When I go to open up iPhoto, all of the thumbnails show up and my albums are intact, as well. However, when I double click to open one of the pictures, I get a blank screen with a spinning progress indicator that never goes away. I can open the photos with the "Preview" app, but I want my iPhoto to work!
Any suggestions...?

Jackie:
That will happen if, for some reason, you have "no access" in the permissions. Run the following on your iPhoto Library folder:
Setting Permissions for iPhoto Library Folder
Select the iPhoto Library folder and type Command-I.
When the Info window comes up go to the Ownership and Permissions section and make sure You have Read & Write permission and that the Owner and Group have Read & Write also. Others - Read Only.
Then click on the "Apply to enclosed items..." button.
See if that will help the situation.

My pictures won't show up in my iPhoto after I upload them.

I upload my photos and after I close the iPoto to shut off my computer the next time I log in my pictures are blank. I cant see them unless I double click to make them bigger. My iPoto shows about 12 blank folders that should be holding the pictures I uploaded. How do I get these pictures to show up?

Backup your iPhoto library, depress and hold the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and from the resulting menu rebuild thumbnails. If this does not resolve rebuild the library

My pictures won't show up on my Hard Drive when I try to view them from my MacBook Pro

I just came back from a trip and have been trying to get my pictures off my iPhone and other camera to put on my external hard drive (it's about 17 GB, so I don't want to waste the space by keeping them on my MacBook). I transferred all the pictures from my phone to iphoto and then to my Hard Drive, and they showed up fine. I had to use the family PC though to get the pictures off of my camera and then transfer them to the same folder on my Hard Drive.
After having consolidated everything, I plugged my hard drive back into my MacBook to view my pictures, but although the folder was there, it appeared empty. I was really worried I had lost all my pictures, but that wasn't the case. When I plugged the hard drive back into the PC they were all there.
I tried taking the folder off the Hard Drive and putting it on my desktop. This worked- all the pictures were back. I didn't want to leave it there though, because they take up so much space, so I deleted the old folder on the Hard Drive and put that folder back. That seemed to work- I was able to see all the pictures again. However, when I plugged the Hard Drive back into my MacBook this morning, the pictures were gone again in the same way *** before.
I am really baffled as to what's going on here. I was hoping someone could tell me how I can keep the pictures on my Hard Drive and be able to view them there.

This is true of course, but doesn't cover the situation where some files are in the iTunes Media folder and others are on an external drive. In my case I keep my music in the Media folder and all my films on an external drive (there are too many to have on the internal drive). In iTunes 11, and before, it was easy to add those external files by holding down the alt/opt key while dragging to the sidebar. In iTunes 12 this is no longer possible. There are several workarounds: use TuneSpan to move the file after it's been added; delete the file from the Media folder and empty the trash then use iTunes Get Info which will report the file is missing and allow you to locate it; constantly switch the Add to iTunes toggle on and off as required. All of these require a lot more work than just holding down the alt/opt key while adding.
It constantly gets harder.

Pictures won't show on Messages

Hello, so this just started happening today. I haven't done any changes on my iphones, just today I woke up with this issue.
When I go to my messages, I can't see any of the pictures people have send me before today. I just get a JPEG square and that's it.
I have an iPhone 5S, iOS 8.1.2
I did a hard reset, and nothing. I read in here to do a network setting reset, and that didn't help.
Any suggestion on what might have happen? All the new pictures I received today are showing, but before today I can't see
Here's a picture of what I'm talking about. None of the pictures are loading...

Hi,
The spyglass would reveal the item as a file in the Downloads folder which can then be opened with Preview.
Alternatively you can use the Window Menu > File Transfers as this should list them.
Again Preview should open them.
I have the same issue and have not worked out what is different in any of the settings.

IPhoto won't show my older iPhone photos anymore.

I always import my photos onto iPhoto. I upgrated my phone from iPhone 4s to iPhone 5. Now my old photos from my iPhone 4s will not show up on iPhoto. On the iPhoto preferences I made sure you can view photos from the past 18 months but still only the photos from my new iPhone 5 show up. I even rebuilt the library but it's still the same. I was wondering how I could get my old photos back.
Thank you,
Emma

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
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. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 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. .

Word to PDF - Pictures won't show up

Hi guys,
I've done many online searches and remain unable to find a solution.
I am creating a PDF document from a Word 2007 document at work.
I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard.
My word document is 270 pages with links, bookmarks, pictures.
Once created, the document is missing 90% of pictures in the original document.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Does it work if you click the location field of that image and use Ctrl+A and Ctrl+C to copy the URL to the clipboard and paste the URL in the location bar and open that image in a tab?
Do you have any extensions installed that can block images?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

After pulling pictures into slide show -- when hit run ... everything is blank

I created a slide show from organizer.
All the pictures are there, pan and zoom selected, etc.   Then when I try and preview it - there is nothing on the scree
n it is blank. the bottom layout shows the movement from one picture to the other but the slide show picture
is not working.   I tried to just take the show to file .. which I did. when i then tried to run the .wmv file .. same thing ...
everything was blank.

This black for the image on the preview screen seems to happen if you are missing some type of Windows authorization or permissions.
Playback in the Slide Show Editor in the Preview seems to require additional Windows authorization or permissions: a black screen in the Preview area while there is movement of the thumbnail images below during playback is the symptom of the problem.
-- running from a Windows userid which has administrator authority usually (but not always) avoids this problem.
-- if the userid administrator authority is not sufficient in your particular case, then try starting PSE by right clickin on its desktop icon and choosing Run as Administrator (which does have a different effect than administrator authority of the userid).
Note: for future reference
For a question like this is good to post both the version of Photoshop Elements and the version of the Windows operating system.
Because this specific problem can happen with both multiple PSE versions and different Windows versions, I went ahead and posted guidance.

I pre ordered a single and an album and the single won't show as part of the album. Why?

I downloaded the new Walk the Moon single a few weeks ago and pre-ordered the new album. The album was released yesterday, but the single (track 3) does not appear as part of the album. When I check purchased items, it just shows the song as purchased and there isn't a way to download it separately so that it is part of the album. Do I need to log into iTunes on my PC and rename the single so that it falls in line where it should on the album? Shouldn't it just do this automatically? Otherwise, it's a bit of a pain to pre-order if you have to constantly go in and reconfigure albums and singles.

Hello wengdiesel,
I would be eager to download and listen to the available songs on my pre-ordered album as well. I found a couple of resources that might help with downloading this purchase.
First, I recommend checking to see if the download was interrupted. You can use the steps in this article:
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
If the songs do not download after following the steps in that article, I recommend trying to download the songs from the list of past purchases. As long as you are signed in with the same Apple ID you used to purchase the album, you will not be charged again. You can find the steps to do this in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
If you are still not able to download the album, I recommend reporting this issue to the iTunes Store:
How to report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBooks Store purchase
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1933
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.
