Pictures won't show on Messages

Hello, so this just started happening today. I haven't done any changes on my iphones, just today I woke up with this issue.
When I go to my messages, I can't see any of the pictures people have send me before today. I just get a JPEG square and that's it.
I have an iPhone 5S, iOS 8.1.2
I did a hard reset, and nothing. I read in here to do a network setting reset, and that didn't help.
Any suggestion on what might have happen? All the new pictures I received today are showing, but before today I can't see
Here's a picture of what I'm talking about. None of the pictures are loading...

Hi,
The spyglass would reveal the item as a file in the Downloads folder which can then be opened with Preview.
Alternatively you can use the Window Menu > File Transfers as this should list them.
Again Preview should open them.
I have the same issue and have not worked out what is different in any of the settings.

HELP!! My picture won't show up on photostream

I took a picture with my iphone 5s. The picture shows up in the bottom left corner when I'm on camera view, but when I click on it, the picture doesn't show up. It takes me to the picture I took before the most recent one. I tried going to my photos app, but it doesn't show up there either. I know the picture took because I can see it in my camera view, but I can't seem to find it anywhere and it's really frustrating. Any picture I take now shows up in my photostream, except for that one picture that I want. I tried turning my phone on and off, and I tried connecting it to my computer and syncing the pictures. I've also tried using dropbox but that didn't work either. Someone PLEASE help me, I'm desperate. I've tried just about everything I can think of.

I know you say you have tried everything, but sometimes people miss steps, so do all of this (Even if you have done it do it again)
Try the 5R's (You might not be able to do "Restore" thats OK) http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
THen connect the ipod and see if it list in iTUens OR in windows under "My Computer" as IPOD or Removable storage.

Check online with the web site of the maker of your video card for an updated driver (assuming you're running Windows).

My pictures won't show up on my Hard Drive when I try to view them from my MacBook Pro

I just came back from a trip and have been trying to get my pictures off my iPhone and other camera to put on my external hard drive (it's about 17 GB, so I don't want to waste the space by keeping them on my MacBook). I transferred all the pictures from my phone to iphoto and then to my Hard Drive, and they showed up fine. I had to use the family PC though to get the pictures off of my camera and then transfer them to the same folder on my Hard Drive.
After having consolidated everything, I plugged my hard drive back into my MacBook to view my pictures, but although the folder was there, it appeared empty. I was really worried I had lost all my pictures, but that wasn't the case. When I plugged the hard drive back into the PC they were all there.
I tried taking the folder off the Hard Drive and putting it on my desktop. This worked- all the pictures were back. I didn't want to leave it there though, because they take up so much space, so I deleted the old folder on the Hard Drive and put that folder back. That seemed to work- I was able to see all the pictures again. However, when I plugged the Hard Drive back into my MacBook this morning, the pictures were gone again in the same way *** before.
I am really baffled as to what's going on here. I was hoping someone could tell me how I can keep the pictures on my Hard Drive and be able to view them there.

This is true of course, but doesn't cover the situation where some files are in the iTunes Media folder and others are on an external drive. In my case I keep my music in the Media folder and all my films on an external drive (there are too many to have on the internal drive). In iTunes 11, and before, it was easy to add those external files by holding down the alt/opt key while dragging to the sidebar. In iTunes 12 this is no longer possible. There are several workarounds: use TuneSpan to move the file after it's been added; delete the file from the Media folder and empty the trash then use iTunes Get Info which will report the file is missing and allow you to locate it; constantly switch the Add to iTunes toggle on and off as required. All of these require a lot more work than just holding down the alt/opt key while adding.
It constantly gets harder.

Mail won't show new message windows

This is weird.
I needed to email a photo to a friend. I drug the photo from iPhoto to the Mail icon in the dock and nothing happened (a new message window didn't pop up with the photo attached) I tried this 3 times and still got nothing. I swiped to another desktop (in Lion) and i could see the new message windows, all three of them, with the picture. When I landed on a space they disappeaered again. When I swipe to a new space they appear and then disappear when I land on that space.
I've shut mail down but haven't done a full restart. Any other ideas why this didn't work and then now how do I fix my problem?
Thanks…
Here's a picture of what I'm talking about…I don't know why it's upside down?!

I've never seen anything like this reported before. Verify/repair your disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
If the problem persists, proceed as follows:
1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that the Console application displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
3. Try to reproduce the problem, and look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that could have been written there as a result. Do you see anything that could provide a clue as to what's going on?
Now, try this:
1. Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts, and create a new user account for testing purposes.
2. Either log out of your main user account or just quit Mail so that it does not interfere with the other user account.
3. Log in as the newly created user and set up Mail anew there. Does the problem happen there as well?

Picture won't show up in my Photo Album; big white blank rectangle space

There is a picture of Sammy Lee, the Olympic Gold Medalist diver, that refuses to show up in one of my Photo Albums on Safari.
I have done everything that everyone has taught me. I have cleared the cache many times. I have clicked onto a site ourside my own site (actually Allyson's site about the tips for iWeb). I have published all to .Mac. The photo still shows up as a white rectangular space.
It is not like other times when a photo doesn't show up, because in those cases, there is a question mark in a blue box. With this case, there is no question mark inside a blue box. There is only a white space where the picture would be/was.
I even went back to iPhoto and put in another copy of that picture, all to no avail.
QUESTION:
What else can I do to make the picture show up on my Photo Album page?

I think it could be the comma causing the problem, actually. Here is a line from the slideshow.html file
new SlideImage('http://web.mac.com/lorna6/iWeb/Lorna%20x%203/395844EC-4CEE-4545-8AD 3-7E66F83391ECfiles/W%3ASammy%20Lee,%20swimmer2.jpg', 321, 450, 'With Sammy Lee, Olympic champion diver & Gold Medalist. He went on to coach Greg Louganis. At L.A.U.S.D., Office of Bilingual Instruction (It no longer goes by that name.) Mid-80’s'),
The colon has transferred ok, but there are a lot of commas used in the code to call up the photos in the slideshow and the comma in the file name (and, possibly, the caption) could be causing some problems.
I don't know enough about this to know for sure (need to consult a higher source...), but it sure couldn't hurt removing it to see if it helps.

ITunes Store Won't Load, Won't Show Error Message

Alright--I've worked my way out of messy computer problems before, but this one's got me pretty well stumped. I mean, even for a PC using Apple products this is a bit ridiculous.
When I open up iTunes, all of the media works just fine, but when I try to navigate to the Store, the white "iTunes Store" page comes up (which I know it does while loading), and the loading bar locks up about halfway through "Accessing iTunes Store" without showing any error messages of any kind. Obviously, refreshing the page does nothing, and neither does opening it up in a separate window. iTunes allows me to sign in, and to view and edit my account/billing information, but even from there I can't worm my way into the Store (via the black menu bar atop the page). Before you say anything, YES my internet is working--hence the online discussion post, so I don't even want to hear it. And I know it isn't the actual store because I can access it on another computer.
I've had this problem for at least a week...possibly since I updated iTunes, but I can't say for sure, so I'm not about to assume there was something faulty in the update.
I found out that the Apple Mobile Device essentially murders my processor (the CPU was maxing out at 100% whenever the program ran, and it was slowing the entire computer down significantly), so I shut that down to see if iTunes was just freezing up under CPU stress like the rest of my computer. While other programs went back to functioning at normal speed, the Store still wouldn't load.
My OS is Windows 7 64-bit.
I have the latest version of iTunes 64-bit.
As far as I can tell I don't have any firewalls or bizarre security problems that are blocking access to the site.
I've tried removing iTunes from my computer and downloading the most recent--and supposedly the most compatible--version.
Admittedly, iTunes never really worked properly on my laptop--syncing, for instance, will take an ungodly amount of time and then crash, resulting in a wiped iPod that needs to take an hour to reload everything--but this is new.
I don't suppose there could be any consistent compatibility problems with running iTunes in a 64-bit OS?
I've read on some of these discussion threads that even in iTunes 64-bit a goodly amount of the programs are still 32-bit, including iTunes itself, and when I run the 64-bit version of iTunes, TM shows itunes.exe 32 gearing the program.
Sometimes problems that are this particular can result from removing important files or programs from the computer, not realizing what part they had in other programs. The only iTunes-related program I've ever deleted was Bonjour, and from the sounds of it, Bonjour doesn't (or at least shouldn't) affect the funcionality of iTunes at all, so I've ruled that out, too.
So I've exhausted my personal knowledge of what could possibly be the problem.
Either it's something simple and I'm just overcomplicating it (which happens a lot to me, actually), or it's one of those quirky, untraceable issues that exist for the sole purpose of inconveniencing people, in which case, C'est la Vie.
I'm not so much concerned with the fact that I can't access the Store as I am with the fact that I simply cannot figure this one out.
It vexes me.
Any input is welcome--I'm way open to suggestions. I figured I'd try discussions before calling Support, just in case it is something trivial.
I wanted to tag this discussion, but the Powers That Be wouldn't have it.
~D.

Ditto. I am having the exact same problem. There is no doubt in my mind it was the latest update that has caused the problem. I too have followed all the suggested fixes and nothing. A second laptop which uses an older version of iTunes has no problem accessing the store. I guess I can still make my purchases there and transfer them to my computer. I was also having CPU issues as a result of the update and went to my Start programs and disabled iTunes Helper (the only iTunes that appeared there). Coincidence or not, my CPU issues are solved for now. Can you tell me how you shut down the Apple Mobile Device in case I need to do that too. Also, I was going to Restore my computer to an earlier date to revert back to the older iTunes version, but I seem to be past that point. Does anyone know if you restore to the earliest point possible (about a week in my case, will even older Restore points come up then? I really would like to undo this stupid update, Yes, Apple needs to do something about this because no one will be able to purchase stuff anymore once they update to this latest version. I submitted this issue to Tech Support and waiting for a response.

HELP! Just got iPhoto 6 w/ my Tiger upgrade, and pictures won't show up

Last week, my 1 1/2 year old Powerbook G4 was having issues that eventually led to me having to replace the hard drive. The new hard drive came with the Tiger OS (was previously on Panther) and the new iLife suite, including iPhoto 6. All of my photos, music, and documents were able to be transferred to the new hard drive.
When I go to open up iPhoto, all of the thumbnails show up and my albums are intact, as well. However, when I double click to open one of the pictures, I get a blank screen with a spinning progress indicator that never goes away. I can open the photos with the "Preview" app, but I want my iPhoto to work!
Any suggestions...?

Jackie:
That will happen if, for some reason, you have "no access" in the permissions. Run the following on your iPhoto Library folder:
Setting Permissions for iPhoto Library Folder
Select the iPhoto Library folder and type Command-I.
When the Info window comes up go to the Ownership and Permissions section and make sure You have Read & Write permission and that the Owner and Group have Read & Write also. Others - Read Only.
Then click on the "Apply to enclosed items..." button.
See if that will help the situation.

Skype won't show old messages

Recently I got a new computer. At first there were no problems, but today I noticed that Skype wouldn't let me access messages older than a week for most of my contacts. For the ones where option to go back further than seven days is available, it says the earliest message is in June 2003 (I didn't even have skype back then) and it actually only goes back to January 11th of this year. Everyone else it won't let me go farther than a week. I am also certain that this is a new development - I know that when I first used Skype on this computer it let me view my full conversation history. And there's important information buried in those logs so I'd kind of like to be able to **bleep**ing access them.
Running Windows 8 and Skype 6.21.0.104 (I was running the latest version but downgraded in an attempt to fix this problem and also because I really dislike the newest skype anyway)

Have you checked your computer's clock time? Has it been wrong in the past?

My pictures won't show up in my iPhoto after I upload them.

I upload my photos and after I close the iPoto to shut off my computer the next time I log in my pictures are blank. I cant see them unless I double click to make them bigger. My iPoto shows about 12 blank folders that should be holding the pictures I uploaded. How do I get these pictures to show up?

Backup your iPhoto library, depress and hold the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and from the resulting menu rebuild thumbnails. If this does not resolve rebuild the library

Aperture pictures won't show up in finder/itunes

I was recently having some weird issues with my OS. So I backed up all my files, did a clean install, and manually moved everything back into place. Everything seemed to be working great. I didn't realize it until today when I tried to put some pictures on my new iPad, but I cannot access my pictures in iTunes to put on my iPad or through finder (photos) to upload to something like facebook.
When I try to upload pictures to my iPad it says:
your aperture library could not be found. Open the preference window in Aperture and enable the preference to share previews with other applications.
Went and checked the preferences in aperture and it shows always allow.
When I go to upload a picture to facebook or Flickr I choose photos and the only option is iPhoto, no aperture.
Any suggestions?

Think I spoke too soon. I just synced 7000 photos with my Apple TV and thought everything was good to go. Now I just took some more pictures and imported them into Aperture and now iTunes says my Aperture Library has 0 photos! I repeated this routine of switching to an empty library and back, but it doesn't work any more!!! Help!

Q5 won't show text messages

When I open text messages sometimes it will freeze and I am unable to see the conversation. The only fix is reopening the program several times and waiting till it returns to normal (takes about 5 minutes). It happens regularly

Samething for me. Bought a Q5 10 days ago, had all my contacts and messages transfer from my old Blackberberry Curve and my messaging is a nightmare. it freezes all the time. Chnaged the Q5 yesterday and did not help at all. Still having a problem with my text messaging which freezes all the time (sometime for more than 2 hours). Seems to always happen when i am receiving a text or call while texting!

Skype won't show incoming messages on my phone

Hiii

Recently I have encountered an issue that I can't see any messages I receive on my phone, but I can still see the messages I send whether it be via my phone or either my pc or laptop: I've tried anything from resetting my settings, clearing my data, erasing my history, reinstalling skype multiple times, cold booting my phone, manually reinstalling skype and deleting all cached data, changing the time on my phone, downgrading to an older version, which you apparently can't do anymore for whatever reason. I'm out of ideas, I don't ever get any notifications, sometimes I see some older messages pop up if I keep the skype on my phone open for a while (after 10 minutes of actually receiving the messages on my pc and laptop). My phone's connection is perfectly fine, I tried using both wifi as well as phone internet, but that made absolutely no difference. There is absolutely no issue on my pc or laptop, the messages appear instantly and have no delay to them, while on my phone, they appear insanely delayed and only when I have the app open, and sometimes they don't appear at all.Help? My phone is Motorolla Moto G with android version 5.0.2 Edit: Apparently after reuploading the image I hadn't noticed that the board had changed from the one I selected (Android), to this one.

Word to PDF - Pictures won't show up

Hi guys,
I've done many online searches and remain unable to find a solution.
I am creating a PDF document from a Word 2007 document at work.
I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard.
My word document is 270 pages with links, bookmarks, pictures.
Once created, the document is missing 90% of pictures in the original document.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Does it work if you click the location field of that image and use Ctrl+A and Ctrl+C to copy the URL to the clipboard and paste the URL in the location bar and open that image in a tab?
Do you have any extensions installed that can block images?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

OVI suite won't show Archived Messages synced from...

I recently transferred my old text messages from my old Sony Ericsson K800i to my new C3-00 using my sim card. The texts appeared on the new phone fine and can be read no problem on the phone's archive. However, whenever i sync them to Ovi Suite, the content of the texts fail to appear. The exact number of messages come up, but what was on each one doesn't.
