Pictures are blue boxes

Hi
My laptop has suddenly started putting small blue boxes in place of some pictures.   It isnt every picture but a lot.  My local Mr Fixit tried to sort it yesterday but it is back today.  Any clues?

  • Craigsphone app pictures are blue boxes with question marks?

    When I use the Craigsphone app for my iPhone, the images are now blue boxes with question marks.  The pictures used to show up fine, but now don't.  Is there a setting somewhere I need to change and if so, where is it?  I've been through my phone and can't figure it out.  I've also restarted and restored my phone and that hasn't worked.
    Thanks in advance!

    I am also running into this problem. net every picture doesn't show though, just maybe three quarters worth.

  • When taking pictures with my iPhone 4S with flash the pictures are blue

    When taking pictures with my iPhone 4S and when I use the flash the pictures come out blue but wen I don't use the flash the pictures come out great. Can someone please answer my question to why that is happening

    Do you have a case on your phone? Many cases get a reflection from the sides and bleed light over the picture.
    The flash is naturally green/blue colour anyway..so it could be just that.

  • Iphone 3g S viewing email pics are showing as blue boxes with question mark

    I am trying to view an e-mail on my iphone 3g S and the pics are not displaying. Instead little blue boxes with question marks are showing. Any ideas on why this is happening?

    The pictures couldn't be loaded due to one or more reasons. Some common reasons are: your email server timed out, the photo was taking too long to load, you had poor signal strength, the file was corrupted, the download failed, or the photo couldn't be displayed because the file type wasn't supported.

  • Blue box with question mark instead of pictures

    Hi,
    I'm having trouble seeing images in emails that are sent to me, they appear as a small blue box with a question mark in it, I'm new to mac, so I don't know much about formats and such. I tried sending one from mail to my hotmail and used Safari to open it, the picture was fine, then I forwarded it to my gmail account on Mac's Mail, and it was also fine. So why can I see some and not others?
    Another issue is the time it takes to send an email, it takes about 1-3 minutes to send an email, even though it's less than 1MB in size, is this normal? My hotmail sends them quite quickly.
    Thanks

    Usually it means that the image/file is in a format your browser or mail plugins cannot read. There are a few Windows proprietary formats you cannot read with a Mac (unless you're running Windows of course); there have also been problems reported with images being sent by an AOL account that would not show, so there could be several reasons. You might want to check with the sender and ask what format the image/file is - readable formats are the popular .pdf and .jpg (among many others). Sometimes there are also problems with PC's sending attachments to a Mac; in Mail, there is an option to check "send Windows friendly attachments" - I bet there is no such option in Windows.... I've had this problem off and on and I attribute it to the fact that I choose to be in the less than 10% world's population with a Mac.

  • Blue boxes instead of pictures

    When ever i go on a page in safari that has pictures, i only see half of them. The rest show up as blue boxes with a question mark. Anyone know what's up?

    That's normal. It means that the server where those images are obtained is not functioning or the image links themselves are no longer correct or no longer active. Nothing you can do about it except report it to the site's webmaster.

  • Why is my mac missing certain fonts and not displaying some pictures, is just a little blue box with a question mark in it?

    When I open documents it always comes up with warnings that I am missing fonts and some cannot be replaced.
    Also now I am noticing that some pictures are now missing and are replaced by a small blue box with a question mark in the middle. Can anyone
    tell me what is going on and how I can fix this?
    Confused and frustrated,
    Amanda

    Do you get a dialog box if you control click the missing image.

  • Incoming emails don't display any pictures only small blue boxes with question marks

    As my question explains I am unable to view any pictures, photos, etc, all in coming mail displays writing only and small blue boxes with ? In their place.
    This problem began occasionally at first and has got increasingly worse, please help

    Try this. Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Mail>Load Remote Images>On.
    If they are still not visible, quit the mail app and restart the iPad, and then look again.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent 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 of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    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.

  • Every photo has a blue sting but not in the level view. What must I do to change this? In other programms the pictures are shown right.

    Open the PSE Editor, not the Organizer.
    Enhance>Adjust Color>Remove Color Cast
    If that does not fix it, you can post a picture here on the forum so that we may provide additional suggestions. To do that, use the camera icon at the top of the reply box.

  • I keep getting an intermittent error on web pages where a blue box with a question mark appears instead of pictures.  For example Facebook and Zappos would load normally on one visit, but if I visit other websites and return I get the blue box.

    HI,
    From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Appearance tab. Tick the box next to: Display images when the page opens.
    If that box is already ticked, from the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset. Relaunch Safari. If you still have problems loading images, go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*
    Make sure Safari is not running in Rosetta. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle so it faces down. Where you see Open using Rosetta... make sure that is NOT selected.
    If you still have problems, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If it's a successful launch, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.

    Reload the page. If it doesn't load, choose Activity from Safari's Window menu, find that picture in the list, and see what it says to the right; this may reveal what the problem is.

  • Getting blue boxes with question marks instead of pictures in ipad 2

    I am getting blue boxes with question marks instead of pictures on my ipad 2. I do not have Wi-Fi.

    I am getting these question marks on many web sites. I thought it probably had to do with no Wi-Fi but I didn't have this problem until the last month or so and I've had the ipad since December.

  • What are these blue box question marks?

    What are these blue box question marks appearing on some websites?
    They seem to not appear on every website I visit, only some.
    I have tried several troubleshooting steps.
    -I reset cache.
    -I changed text encoding.
    -I checked bos to always display images.
    -I went to "develop" and opened in every other browser.
    -I updated my adobe flash player.
    What else can I do?
    It is so annoying!
    I am running Safari 8.0.
    Thank you!
