Pictures duplicated in "moments" view

On my iPad2 (iOS8), when viewing pictures in the "moments" view, all of the pictures taken last 4 months show up as duplicates. The pictures are not really duplicated, in "collections" or "year" they do not show as duplicates. Why is this?

Try this basic fix: 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.)
*What's the plist file?*
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • Photos app only downloads pictures in "moments" view

    I have "upgraded" to the Photos app on all my devices (ipad, macbook air and iphone).  After a few issues (pictures were not uploading from the macbook air) it all seems to work except on the ipad.  There I only see gray rectangles where I should see pictures unless I open them in "moments" view.  (ie in "collections" or "years") nothing downloads to the device. On the iphone, which uses the same settings (ie "optimise ipad storage"); all was downloaded.  I have 11 GB free on the ipad.
    any idea how to get all the reduced size images to download to the ipad?
    thanks.

    I was able to get my Journals working again by syncing all photos included in those Journals back from my Mac to the iPad. However, this has resulted in my iPad being loaded with extraneous photos (not included in the iPhoto Journal) wasting space on my iPad. I've posted a separate thread looking for a soution to that issue.

  • How can I make adjustments in MOMENTS view

    When I choose the top most Photos icon in the side bar, the moments view is evident.  My photos are grouped by day dates.  This makes is very difficult to locate photos known to be within a certain month or even year.  As I scroll down through the listing, I noticed that some of my groups had the same date, yet were grouped separately.  Then I notice some groups have a location listing, then back to days, then back to locations.  A few pictures were listed under locations that were wrong.  Is there any way to make a change on how the moments view is arranged?  The IOS moments at least has a few adjustments.

    A view is a stored query. It gets executed at run time. A view does not occupy any physical space in the database (other than the insignificant amount of space required to store the query in the data dictionary).
    A materialized view actually materializes the results of a query in a separate table structure, so it consumes physical space in the database. It also has to be refreshed at some interval, either synchronously with DML or asynchronously on a set interval.

  • How can I  delete pictures from my moments off the new IOS8

    How can I delete pictures from my moments off the new IOS8 when it doesnt give me the option to delete the photo itself? The icon of the trash doesnt appear what so ever. This is the only thing im dissapointed in the IOS8 update. Theres not even a camera roll where you can delete the photo like the IOS7

    Try this:
    1. Start from the homescreen of your Iphone/pod (for dummies: where all of your "apps" are).
    2. Look for an app on your homescreen titled "Photos", when you find it - Click it.
    3. When the app opens, go ahead and look towards the bottom of your phonescreen.
         You should see a navigation with three different options;
           "Photos", "Shared" & "Albums"; Why don't you just go ahead and click on "Albums", there we go - Very nice!
    4. On the next screen that appears, it should display your different albums.
         Look for "Recently Deleted", and when you find it - Click on it.
           It should be on that list somewhere (or there's a problem!).
    5. Now you should see a screen displaying all of the recent photos you've deleted.
         The term we know as "recent" to iOS is thirty days (that's 720 hours in people-time!).
           You will have to click to each individual photo, however at the bottom left-hand cornor of every photo take notice of the 'Delete' option.
    You're welcome.

  • Are pictures duplicated when they are imported?

    I am new to iMac.
    All of my pictures are in a main folder called "The Photo Album", with many subfolders within it.
    I placed the folder in the folder "Pictures." I then choose "Import to Library" from the File menu.
    So my question is, were the pictures duplicated into the iPhoto Library file? Can I delete "The Photo Album" folder which is in "Pictures," and still have the full iPhoto library? I thought I was just telling iPhoto where to look for my pictures, but it feels like they were all moved / copied into the iPhoto icon under "Pictures," is this correct?
    Along with that, if I want to do a manual backup of iPhoto, do I just copy the "iPhoto Library" icon in the Pictures folder to an external hard drive, and is that the whole thing?
    Thanks,
    -Lee

    This is not necessary - you can import form anyplace including the original location
    So my question is, were the pictures duplicated into the iPhoto Library file?
    Yes - assuming that you have not changed the default settings

  • I deleted over 200 self taken videos and over 500 pictures in the Moments window in my photo tab.  They deleted but still show in my setting in the About window and I haven't gained any additional storage capacity.  What do I do now?

    I deleted over 200 self taken videos and over 500 pictures in the Moments window in my photo tab.  They deleted but still show in my setting in the Setting/About window and I haven't gained any additional storage capacity.  What do I do now? Please help!  Thanks in advance for any assistance!!!

    Check the Recently Deleted album. Deleted photos will reside there for up to 30 days. This allows all those people who accidently delete photos to recover them, something they couldn't do before. To actually free up the space you might have to delete the photos in the Recently Deleted album.

  • Issues with using my iPhoto library on my external hard drive.  Very slow to open and pictures disappear in thumbnail view.

    I have recently transferred my iPhoto Library to my external hard drive (WD MyBook Live) and have some questions.  Since I have done this and used the "alt + option" to select it as my default library I have been having some issues.  When using the library on the external drive as my default drive it takes a very long time to load compared to when it was on my macbook's hard drive. Is this normal?  Also, once it does load the thumbnails are only viewable when scrolling quickly through the photos and they are very blurry.  However, if I were to select one randomly (because of this problem I have no way of knowing which one I'm selecting) it brings it up in the edit view and it is a crystal clear picture.
    Is there a way to fix these issues?  I'd love to be able to use the iPhoto Library off the external drive to free up space on my macbook but if it isn't going to work as streamlined as it would on my macbook hard drive.  I have not yet deleted the original iPhoto Library from my macbook because I did not want to do so until I knew the new iPhoto library on the external drive was working properly.  Does this make a difference?
    Please help!

    The problem lies with occasional dropouts that can corrupt the library's database files if they are being written to as the time of dropout.  It's the nature of wireless networks.  If you have a very strong signal throughout and are willing to take a chance then go for it.
    But as for the speed, it must be iPhoto 11 and it's complexity causing the slowness. I had tried using a library on an EHD connected to my iMac from my laptop wirelessly with iPhoto 7 or 8 and it was pretty fast.  I think it was 7 before faces and places came into being.
    Send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html to improve wireless performance, etc.

  • Gif file opening through MS Picture Mgr instead of viewer

    Hi,
    We have gif files displaying in MS Picture viewer instead of  ECL viewer in sap.
    The bmp files are opening in ECL viewer.
    Please help in what needs to be done.
    Anirudh,

    Dear Anirudh,
    please check if you have installed the ECL Viewer properly. Please see the SAP note <a href="https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1083901">1083901</a> and install the latest available version 6.
    Before I would like to ask you, to uninstall your former ECL
    Viewer before you installed Version 6? To check if the ECL Viewer is
    un-installed please search for WebViewer2d.dll file. If it is present
    then it means ECL Viewer is still installed on your PC. You can also
    check the folders and should be able to see all the dll's for ECL Viewer
    such WebViewer3d.dll/Printing.dll etc to make sure that there is not
    only single file but the whole installation.
    Generally there are two possibilities to un-install the ECL Viewer:
    - Uninstall the version integrated with SAP GUI by using SAP
    Installation scripts. You need to uncheck the 'EAI Viewer' component in
    'General Add-on' option.
    - Check add/remove program and if there is an entry like SAP Viewer,
    uninstall it.
    After this search again, and you should not get WebViewer2d.dll file on
    machine. Now reinstall the latest Viewer.
    Best regards,
    Christoph

  • Whenever i go to open a picture message in full view the black loading screen just comes up with no picture? (verizon iphone 5)

    I have a 32gig iphone 5 on verizon and whenever i go to open a picture message the black screen that says loading just comes up and i can't view the picture... any help? PLEASE!

    Try using the wall charger to charge your iPhone.  Some USB ports do not enough power to charge your phone, or at the very least, it will take a much longer time than a wall charger.
    You will find that after having it plugged into the wall for 10min, it will have enough power to indicate that the battery is now charging.
    Save your money from buying a battery for your next iPhone  :-)

  • I cannot open my pictures in iphoto to view them larger

    Since updating to the new iPhoto, I cannot figure out how to open my thumbnail photos. It is so frustrating. I tap, I click, I double-tap and double-click, I right tap and right click...nothing. Can someone help me figure out this stupid issue? I feel like an idiot but I know I am not doing anything wrong. I just want to view my photos larger!!!!

    Well, when I go to click on an individual picture that is in my photos section, nothing happens. It won't even open up all of my pictures when I go to click on an event in the event section either. The picture gets highlighted but it won't open up into a bigger view or open the events folder to view other pictures within that event. I tried double clicking, tapping, everything. I tried to look on iPhoto Help, but there is nothing about this. I don't know why this is becoming such a problem. I can open other things on my computer just fine when I tap or click on it.

  • Same pictures duplicated on every page folder!!!

    I've just noticed that iWeb08, when publishing in a folder, is making a copy of each picture you use on each page folder, even if the picture is the same!!!
    For example if you're using a logo for your website, and using it on every page, it will be copied on each page folder, increasing dramatically the size of your website folder...
    In the past version, iWeb was creating an images folder, where were stored all the shared pictures.
    to be more precise if I use a picture called picture1.jpg on my welcome page, and then use it on my About me page, the picture will be copied on the welcome folder and on the About me folder.
    This makes your website very large and slower to load on a browser, this is really annoying...
    worst the pictures used on themes are duplicated for each page as well !!!!!
    Anyone know a way to have a shared picture folder like in iweb 06 ?
    PS:
    1-All the pictures are exactly the same, not modified, resized, etc...
    2-You can delete manualy the duplicate Files n each folder, but when you republish they will be re added !!!

    Matcha,
    I loaded the business letterhead template, and I see what you mean. It is a bit odd to have the address defined as a Master Object. Here's an easy way to fix it: select the address Master Object, delete it, then replace it with a text box that has the address in it. You'll need to make sure that the text box is set as Fixed On Page (see the Wrap Inspector), then move and size it the way you want. Doing it this way, the box will appear on page 1, but not on any subsequent pages.
    Does this answer your question?

  • How do I view all my pictures in Photo Library View?

    I have over 4,000 photos. They are all viewable in various libraries but NOT the Photos library. I can only see a few hundred in there.
    See a screen shot here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/978197/Aperture-03.jpg
    Thanks =)

    I too have had the same issue. I can not see any of my pics in "photo" view. As far as I can tell no filter is set. I solved the problem by creating a folder and putting all of my projects and folders into it. It then has become my work around "photo" folder. All my pictures are stored in the Aperture library. I trashed my aperture.plist file and restarted. Didn't help. Pictures show up in all other projects or folders. Seems to be an odd quirk. But I guess I don't need it now!

  • How to enlarge pictures and change reading view

    I've bought an ebook which should contain large Excel screenshots and text. According to the description it should be in 2 columns, one for text and one for screenshots. I can see the text and enlarge it, but the screenshot pictures are very small and I can't see what they're supposed to be. This is just on a regular sized laptop. I searched for the reading view icons that are supposed to be there, hoping I could fix it by changing it to a 2 page view or another alternative view. For some reason I don't see the reading view icons either. Could anyone tell me how to enlarge these screenshot images, and how to change my reading view and find my icons? 

    You need to look at Lightbox for that effect: - includes instructions on how to use it.

  • BBM group pictures in blend: Cannot view fullscreen, ordered incorrectly

    When i open the pictures tab of a group the oldest pictures are displayed first. On the device the newest are displayed first, this should be adjusted accordingly.
    When i open a picture posted in a BBM group with Blend i cannot find any way to view the whole picture. It shows 50% picture and 50% comment area. On a device i can douple-tap the picture to open it fully, but that does not work within Blend.
    Am i missing something? Or is Blend?
