Pictures not visible in 'faces'' folders

I need some help with faces within Iphoto.
I tagged all the people in my pictures. Most of the people are added in the right folder in ''faces''. However some are missing. When I go back to the particular picture and press the name of a specifi persons it takes me to her folder in ''faces'' where this particular picture is missing.

Hi Mike,
Thanks very much! That did the trick!
Just so you know, there is one additional file I edited to make the folders appear with the desired name. Basically if you just add the text to Collections.plist it will display the folder but with the name on the identifier tag. If you want the folder to show a name other than the identifier you have to edit the Collections.strings file in the English.lproj directory.
Here are the instructions I've put together for this whole procedure:
--------------------INSTRUCTIONS------------------------
- cd /System/Library/PreferencePanes/DesktopScreenEffectsPref.prefPane/Contents/Resou rces/DesktopPictures.prefPane/Contents/Resources
- sudo vi Collections.plist
- add additional items in the following form:
identifier = myPatterns;
path = "/Library/Desktop Pictures/My Patterns";
showScalingPopUp = YES;
- save file and exit
THEN
- cd English.lproj
- sudo vi Collections.strings
add line entries in the following format:
myPatterns = "My Patterns";
(the tag on the left of the '=' sign must match the identifier noted above)
save file and exit
--------------------INSTRUCTIONS------------------------
The only thing I haven't been able to figure out is how to get the scaling drop-down box to appear; you know, the drop-down box that gives you the following choices on how to display the image: Fill screen, Stretch to fill screen, Center, Tile.
I see in the Collections.plist file there is a tag for showScalingPopUp and I've set this to YES on some folders, but it doesn't bring up the drop-down box when I select an image within that folder.
I can certainly live without this b/c it's not that critical, but still it's curious...

  • Some pictures  not visible in iphoto09library unless i double click on them

    Ever since I loaded iphoto 09, my iphoto library is there but several pictures are not visible in the library and only a blank frame is visible. When I double click it, I see the picture but it is still not seen in the library. Other pictures are fine. Confused

    Launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) and command (apple) keys and rebuild the thumbnails

  • Folders added to "Desktop Pictures" not visible in System Prefs...

    Hello,
    I am trying to add additional wallpaper images to the "/Library/Desktop Pictures" directory. I can add images to this dir and they are visible in the Desktop & Screen Saver preferences, however newly added folders are not (I would like to add folders so I can keep the pictures organized).
    How do I get Desktop & Screen Saver prefs to see new folders?

  • Some Media Card folders within 'documents​' folder not visible in Windows XP Pro SP3

    I have tried renaming these folders on the device (eliminating '.'s and generally shortening the folder names) and then connecting to a Windows machine again afterwards, however, I have two problematic folders (within the 'documents' folder) that are still not visible in Windows.
    One thing that is kind of troubling is that I thought I noticed that when I was moving files out of the 'documents' root directory (only place I can put files from the Windows machine [while connected] because I can't see the target folders in Windows) on the device to one of the problematic folders (again, because I cannot accomplish this in Windows), the original full-length folder name was still being referenced in the path displayed in the intermediate confirmation dialog.
    Does it matter whether the folders are created within the (connected to) Windows environment or done on the device?  Are there folder name length considerations or illegal characters?
    I have created (in the Windows environment, while connected) some rather long folder names (including ''' & '.' characters) within the 'pictures' directory and have no trouble seeing them later in Windows.
    What could be going on here?
    Thanks, FFF

  • Gmail spam folders not visible in Mavericks mail.app

    I have upgraded the operating system to Mavericks on one of the Macs I use. In mail.app, I find that the Spam folder in my gmail accounts is not visible; the same is true of a number of other gmail folders that formerly appeared as subfolders of the main [Gmail] folder. I have found no mail.app preferences that might explain this disappearance. By accessing my gmail accounts via a web browser, I have confirmed that the Spam folders are still present in each.
    Thanks in advance to anyone else who reports this issue and all the more so to anyone who can suggest a fix.

    You have sub-folders of the Inbox???
    I did see a post on Mountain Lion forum where the person had the same setup and got it back. I know I was part of the thread, but I can't find it.
    You may need to remove the account and re-add it to Mail.

  • My new folders are not visible in Finder

    New folders (generated by a application, SABNZB+, that runs in the background as a web service) will only show up in Finder once I have run a search in Finder and are not visible before. I have tried a disk repair and a permissions rebuild.
    Any ideas anyone?

    Yes they do, no problems there.
    I am starting to believe it might have to do with the fact that the folders are created by an unarchiver that reassembles files after they are downloaded from my newsgroup. The strange thing is that there never used to be a problem, it started somewhere around the second update to mountain lion. But it could also be a new version of the application SABNzb+, I am not sure.
    What is also weird is this: I can find the folder when doing a search in Finder, then open the folder, all files are there and the folder is then visible normally.
    Edit: The files are reassembled by the unarchiver on the main Macintosh HD, then moved to a different volume and deleted from the originating volume.

  • Can Not send pictures and documents with my webmail, the link is Not visible on Safari Browser

    Hello, i can Not send pictures and documents wit my tele2 webmail, the link to so this is Not visible. I tried Safari, Opera, and Dolphin.

    Safari doesn't support the attaching/uploading of files. If you want to send documents or photos that you have stored on the iPad then you can use the Mail app - if you've set up your email account on it, then you should be able to start in the app that contains the document, and then use that app's functionality to select the document and attach it to an email e.g. in the Photos app you can use the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it to select and email a picture

  • Cache folders not visible

    Has anyone else noticed that the cache folders are not visible under OS X 10.7?  I found a forum where a user had posted a supposed 'fix' by using the Termial App, and the following command:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library/
    However, this did not seem to work for me.
    As an aside, I bought my frist Apple IIe when I was in 7th grade, been a LOYAL Apple user ever since.  However, Lion just flat out *****.  No pretty way to say it.  Hangs, Safari crashes, email crashes, Time Machine hang ups, etc, etc, etc....  If I had a dollar for every minute  I have sat and whatched the pinwheel................
    Thanks for any help/advice.

    Yes.   That must be the issue.  When I tried your suggestion, I received the following message:
    The file /Users/yourHome/Library/Caches does not exist.
    I first noticed this issue when I was trying to locate the cache folder for Opera (browser).  I can see it is saving files to `Library/caches/Opera/temporary files.  I just can't locate the Opera cache folder.
    Thanks for the suggetion.

  • Personal folders not visible in Thunderbirds after migration to new computer

    I moved my Thunderbird profile to a new computer (and edited profiles.ini to point to the backed-up profile. Now in Thunderbird on the new machine I have the Local Folders Inbox, Sent, Trash, but the Personal Files folder with my saved and categorized mail sub-folders is not visible in the left-hand panel. It appears to be intact in the /Mail/Local Folders/Personal Folders.sbd/Archives.sbd folder, just not visible when I run Thunderbird.
    What do I have to do to get these folders and their subfolders back again.
    ...Doug

    Doug,
    I had the same problem, and believe I found the solution. I was transferring a profile from one computer running Win XP to a new computer running Win 7.
    I could see the file folders evident, as you did, using Windows Explorer to look in the profile folder, but they were not showing in the left hand pane of Thunderbird when it was running as they did in the XP machine.
    I went to the "Tools" menu, selecting "Account Settings," and then clicked on "Local Folders" in the left portion of the dialog box. Then in the right portion of the dialog box under "Local directory:" I selected the "Browse" button. I then browsed down into the "...AppData\Local\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\Mail\Local Folders\Outlook Express Import.sbd" ( in my case - the very last portion of yours might be different but should probably still be a ".sbd" file, and of course, the eight x's would be the random name Thunderbird assigns to your Profile file. ) I then clicked the "OK" button at the bottom of the dialog box. ( I believe the program then informs you it must close and restart. ) Anyway, go ahead and close Thunderbird and restart at this point.
    When it restarts, my old folder structure appeared as it did on the earlier machine, and all the files were intact.

  • Some OSX folders under bootcamp (Win7) not visible - why?

    Hello,
    a few months ago I set up Win7 via Bootcamp on my MBP 13.3" (mid '09) and I noticed that sometimes (when in Win7) I was searching really long for a specific folder (just a folder with some music in it, nothing special). I gave up and thought I might have accidently deleted it. But when back in OSX I directly found the folder, so he was there. The name folder is named "Ambient/Chillout". But interestingly the problems also exists vice versa. Some Word documents (written under Win7) are not visible for me when in OSX. They are not even visible when I copy the document to an external device (flash usb drive).
    Does anyone have an idea what is going here?!
    Thanks so far.

    Well, somewhere there is/was a question? I guess.
    Without the driver from MediaFour or Paragon you can only see some folders, and not be able to see or mount folders, drives and partitions outside the limits of the AppleHFS and home folder or share folder.
    So if you want to use an external drive, you can't.
    With a driver you don't need to copy back and forth - word and itunes need write access to open those items.
    I don't like Spotlight reindexing Windows partition over and over or leaving hidden ".DS and ._DS" files in every folder so I place them in Privacy tab.
