Pictures on websites print as black squares instead of the actual picture.

I don't have this issue when using other browsers like Internet Explorer or Chrome. I'm wondering if there's a setting in Firefox that needs to be adjusted. Never had this problem before until now.

I had the same problem today with a CP1217. Went to Devices and Printers, Preferences, Advanced, Print Processor, and changed it from ZIMFPRINT to HP Color Laserjet. It works now.

Where is your Calculator application located? Before you can put it into the Dock you need to remove the Question Mark. Select it with the mouse and drag it out of the until it "poofs" away. Now locate Calculator and drag its icon into the Dock.

How come everytime I view a pic from an email on my iPad, there's a black square instead of the pic?

Whenever I pull up an email, instead of displaying the pic, it displays a black square. How do I fix this?

I'm sure there are plenty of people that you knew what you meant but I just wasn't familiar with the terminology. I assumed thats what you meant but I wasn't sure. After I posted my son explained it to me as well.
I don't know that much about this issue but from what I've read in the past, I assumed that it normally indicates that the photos are being sent in an unrecognizable format which would be really hard to believe if it happens with every email that you have been receiving.
Do you have load remote images turned on in settings? Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Load Remote Images>On?
Have you tried emailing a photo to yourself and see what happens? if not - try sending an email to the iPad from you computer. Have you tried tapping and holding down on the photo to bring up the save or copy option to see what happens? Maybe save one of the photos and see if it opens in the photos app?
Have you tried resetting your iPad? Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the re slider?

When I try to put a PNG watermark that I made myself into a "Picture in Picture" it just gives a black screen instead of the watermark

My channel is partnered with TGN. And they gave me a watermark. When I put the TGN watermark in it's fine, but when i put my custom watermark in I get a black screen.
Please help me. I am using Imovie 9.0.8 Macbook pro OS X 10.8.3

In the iMovie menu item File > Project Properties for Initial Photo Placement choose Crop - NOT Fit in Frame or Ken Burns (iMovie's default setting is Ken Burns). The latter 2 options will convert the .png image to a .jpg image.
If you've already placed the png image into the timeline as a Picture in Picture, you will need to delete it then change the preference setting to Crop. Then you can insert the png image.

When I send emails and then check the email in sent items, the pics i attached are black squares instead of the image, why?

It does tis on my iPad, iPhone too, so is it an issue with muy carrier and home wifi or an apple issue?
I'm just checking my sent mail foldr and it doesn't display the images i sent, just black squares

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It's probably quite simple, and nothing to do with your Address Book group.
It is a matter of 'junk mail' or 'spam' filtering on the recipient end, I think.
1. Apparently not everyone in your Address Book group (12 of 15 apparently?) has your current email address among their 'permitted email addresses', so, your original email message ends up in their 'junk mail' or 'spam filter' or whatever it is called by their email provider. Some businesses and schools also filter incoming messages for subject, language, content, or by sender's address (one company I dealt with prohibited all incoming email from Hotmail, for example), so it could be filtered at that level. In that case, the recipient might have to specifically ask the IT department to add your email address to a 'permitted' list.
2. When someone else in the group hits 'reply all', THEIR email address IS among the 'permitted email addresses' for everyone else, and they are in effect 'forwarding' your message from their email address, so the filtering affecting your email address does not affect their re-sending of your message.

How can I get a picture to go with my email signature when sending emails from my iPad? Only a square box shows up on my signature not the actual picture I iploaded in my settings.

Only Apple Account Security could help at this point. You can try calling Apple Support in Canada - you'll have to find one of the several ways, such as Skype, to call an 800 number from outside of the relevant country - and ask for Account Security and see if they can help. Or you can find a friend who speaks Chinese and ask them to help you talk to Apple Support in China. There are really no other options that I know of.
Note, by the way, that these are user-to-user support forums. You aren't speaking with Apple when you post here.

Chess piece image of king showing instead of the normal picture we had chosen. Have we been hacked or does this happen for another reason?

While ATT was the one who made the news this time, it has been long reported that most of the major providers (google, Facebook, AOL, etc.) have been monitoring data trafic on their networks, and providing back door access to government agencies for years. (If one recalls, kinda the point Edward Snoden made with his secret government messages release.) At least, they seem to be backing off, as the public becomes more aware or their privacy invasions.

Bookmarks are saved yet after using the page icon is still displayed instead of the actual icon for the website. I have followed the directions for "Favicons do not display".

My bookmarks, on a HP Pavilion dv-7-2273cl notebook, are saved yet the page icon is still displayed after using the bookmark instead of the actual icon for the website. I have followed the directions for "Favicons do not display" without any success. This problem is not experienced on my much older Gateway desktop.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

My hp 7160 wants to print in black only after replacing the yellow cartridge. Any suggestions?

My hp 7160 wants to print in black only after replacing the yellow cartridge. Ink level shows full amount. Test page prints fine.
I have tried different programs to color print in, all return the same error message.

Hi @obxgirl,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are running into some print quality issues on your HP Photosmart 5510, you are unable to print in black ink.
I would like you to continue here: Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages, I understand you may have done some of these steps already but I need you to complete all steps in order to resolve the missing black issue you are experiencing.
Please note: There are three printhead cleaning stages. Complete all three stages if necessary. If the printhead is badly clogged, it might require another cleaning cycle. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last (third) cleaning stage to start the first stage of the cleaning process over again.
If you are still unable to print in black ink, I suspect the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. Please let me know which Country/Region you are in as well as the product Warranty status: HP Warranty Checker
I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,
HevnLgh
I work on behalf of HP

When I try to open a specific album, the pictures from "last 12 months" comes up instead of the pictures in the album

When I try to open an album, the pictures from "last 12 months" come up instead of the pictures in the album.

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.

I need help sending pictures by email. I add picture a picture and send it but if I send a second picture in another email the same picture from the first email is sent instead of the second picture

I have been sending pictures to people while organizing my iPhoto. Usually it is one picture per email. Unfortunately, it ends up that the same picture is ending up on each email instead of the picutures that I am picking out. Usually the first picture that I send is the picture that is send in all the emails. HELP!

Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it does try the following:   make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
     User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
     User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
If the problem doesn't appear in the test library do the following with your original library: make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
