Pictures not opening

When I open a pdf document there is just a gray box where there is supposed to be a picture, do I have something besides my brain turned off?
I open all these documents ok and print etc ok but for pictures just a plain old gray box.
Help! and thank you ! Rick M

>do I have something besides my brain turned off?
Yes. You need to turn on "Display Large Images" in Reader preferences>Page Display.

Pictures Not Opening in iPhoto

After rearranging my photos within the iPhoto Library folder, they will no longer open. The thumbnails appear, and the photos will open in Preview. Is it possible to arrange them to my preferences if I keep them in the Originals folder in iPhoto?

Macinaction
It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss
so therefore: Is it possible to arrange them to my preferences if I keep them in the Originals folder in iPhoto?
No it's not.
iPhoto is a photo organiser. It's a database and like any database it will not work if you manipulate the data outside of the application. So everything you want to do you must do via the iPhoto Window. The good news is that anything you need to can be done from inside the iPhoto Window.
To cases: To get iPhoto working again you must return it to the way it was. If you cannot do that, then you need to create and populate a new library. To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same film rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library Folder to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library Folder on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual rolls 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 Folder 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.
Some further info: Were organising things to make it easier to find photo files? There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
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: 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.
Also the Film Roll view (View -> Film Rolls) corresponds exactly to the Roll folders in the Finder. Rolls can be named, created, photos can be moved between rolls - as long as this is done via the iPhoto Window and then these changes are reflected in the iPhoto Library Folder.
If you need help in achieving anything specific or clarification of anything here by all means post again.

Pictures not opening in Editor

Windows 7 - 64-Bit
Photoshop Elements 11
I have all my pictures in a Photoshop Elements Catalog
I open the catalog & choose the picture I want to edit in Photoshop Elements Editor
The majority of the time, when Photoshop Elements Editor opens, the picture is not there.
If I reboot my computer, I can get it to open 1 or 2 photos, then the same thing happens again
I have searched the discussion groups for an answer, but don't find it anywhere.
I am having other issues with the program as well, but I will post those as seperate issues.
I am trying to edit & preserve my family photos for my 90 year old mother, but at this point I am ready to find another program to do this.

Pictures not opening with QuickTime

I recently upgraded some software on my desktop (one of the automatic updgrades that pop up when you restart your computer....since doing that, there are certain pictures that won't open when I go to certain websites. Instead there is just a box with the "Q" and a "/" in the middle of it....anyone know how I can fix this so that I can see photos again?
Thanks!

Did you repair permissions after updating?
Double check your settings in the QT MIME Settings.
Quicktime>Quicktime Player Preferences>Advanced
Click on the MIME Settings button.

Pictures not opening correctly

When I try and open an image in Photoshop it appears as the image below -
I have checked and my Graphic card is on the approved list and I have updated it today but I still have the problem.
If I make a duplicate layer I can see the full image OK, its just when I open the image to start with. Most frustrating.

This is almost certainly a driver issue. It only affects some card models, and some driver versions.
(though, it's also possible you just have a defective GPU or VRAM, but I would expect more problems if that were the case)
At the time that we tested that card, it was working - so we listed it as compatible. Subsequent driver updates have introduced bugs in the driver that cause the display issues you are seeing. Please understand that GPU vendors are updating their drivers every 2-4 weeks.
Since the current driver is not working, you may have more luck rolling back to an older version of the driver.
What changed in ACR is that ACR in CS6 now uses the GPU, where it did not in CS5. So it is now exposed to the same driver bugs as Photoshop (unless you turn off the GPU features in Photoshop's preferences).

After updating my MacBook Pro to yeosemite I want my old screen saver picture back. I did a full back up before the install. I found the "Settings" folder in Time machine but when I try to open it I get an error message saying "You can not open this

After updating my MacBook Pro to yeosemite I want my old desktop picture back. I did a full back up before the install. I found the "Settings" folder in Time machine but when I try to open it I get an error message saying "You can not open this folder. It is in TimeMachine".

Can you browse the Time Machine drive from Finder?
If you can and you know where the picture was stored ie on your desktop you can browse through the folder structure to the picture copy it and paste it somewhere on your new install before right clicking it and 'set as desktop background'

I need these photos, to complete the video, not to mention I don't want to lose them. I have had trouble ever since upgrading to Maverick.

Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

Are all three libraries under your account or are they in different accounts? Any other errros on the system?

I tried hard reset on my iPhone. I tried restarting laptop and iPhone. I tried a different laptop. I tried removing driver and reinstalling from Device Manager but did not find a driver other than "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" under "Universal Serial Bus controllers" which I heard shouldn't be uninstalled.
Anything I haven't tried?
HELP!

Are you seeing your music listed in the iPod screen, or in Win explorer as in your earlier post?
I can see all the songs in my Edrive>al's Ipod> Ipod Control> Music folder.
A corrupted iPod database, will report zero music used, and have your music size reported as others, so you wont see the music in the iPod screen. Sorry, I thought there was some hope for you with iPodAccess, in recovery of the corrupted iPod database with your ratings.
You can try to borrow and use the Mac Disk Utility ->First Aid ->Repair.
Of course, if your iPod Hardisk is in a bad state, from the Disk Diagnostic report, then all my suggestion are futile.

Adobe now hides the editor - what looks like it is not - you want the editor hidden in the support folder - see http://forums.adobe.com/message/3955558#3955558 for details

PS5 will not open camera raw pictures...all made with Canon 5D Mark III and Canon 5D Mark II

PS5 will not open Camera Raw Pictures made with Canon 5D Mark III

What version of camera raw do you have? You should have at least 6.7 for PS to open Canon 5D Mark III raw images.

I have downloaded Adobe camera raw 8.4 so that I can open raw files with pictures taken with the Sony a6000 camera. However it is not opening the images in camera raw. What can I do?

Close and restart Photoshop if you have not already done so.
In Photoshop, go to the Help - About Plug-in... menu then choose Camera Raw. What version does it say there?

It relates to Elements 10, but it's the same for 11.

When people text me pictures to my iphone5, I can not open them. This was not a problem until I downloaded iOS 6.1.3. I also can't open attachments from e-mails sent to me on my phone.

Try a reset hold home/sleep buttons until Apple logo appears
If that does not improve try a restore
