Placed Images are transparent, only the outline can be seen, HELP!

I have been producing a brochure over the last couple of days and all has been fine with placing my images but yesterday afternoon when I tried to place a new image, the image becomes transparent and all I can see is the outline of the image and the other content on the page can be seen within this outline.
I have tried to restart indesign a few times, have looked into the different settings on the flattener preview, have changed the display performance settings, any other suggestions would please be more than welcome!
Thank you
Chloé

If the image is from Photoshop with a clipping path, open it in Photoshop and examine the path. What you describe sounds like something that has a clipping path made from a selection of white space around an inner object, but the selection was not set to inverse before converting to a vector path. Instead of clipping out the white area surrounding the center item, the item was clipped. Just a guess, but have a look.

  • Iphoto5, all thumbnail images are gone, only ghost outline remains, tried rebuilding, no results.  Does anyone have a solution?

    Can anyone tell me how to get my iphotos back?  Only a ghost outline remains in the iphoto library and all the albums, 19,500 images dissapeared.
    We tried rebuilding, but no success.  Thanks!

    Thank you very much - this is the solving of my problem. For any reason all my content was unchecked. So iTunes deleted music and movies on the ATV and did no synchronizing. Now it is working fine.
    Kind regards. Friedrich Guenter.

  • CS6 InDesign - Default display is high-quality. Four placed images are Illustrator files. Three images look the way they should - high-quality. One image looks pixelated. Why?

    InDesign CS6 - Default display is high-quality. All four placed images are Illustrator files. Three images look the way they should - high-quality. One image looks pixelated. Why?

    Not sure if this will help, but what is your inDesign file's "Transparency Blend Space" set to? It's under the edit menu.
    Also, when you are placing your images, are you selecting "Show Import Options" and making any selections there?

    What is the problem specifiaclly?
    If the images are intended for web use I would recommend converting them to sRGB which could be done with Edit > Convert to Profile or with File > Save for Web, but as including a Save step in Actions and applying them as Batch can sometimes cause problems I would go with regular converting.
    You could also try Image Processor Pro.

    Works perfectly fine for me with the latest Reader version (11.0.09).
    You write that it worked "before"; before what?  An update?  Update from what version to what version?

  • Developer Module only shows blue square with a white cross, images are displayed in the library ok but not im developer Module

    Ive just updated to LR 6 from LR 5.
    The app seemed to launch ok but as I was looking around none of my photos will open in the developer module, they just have a blue box with white cross??

    It seems to be something to do with Lightroom 6 accessing the GPU. I had this problem and under the "Performance" tab in "Preferences" (Edit menu), there's a box that says "Use graphics processor". I unticked this box and now the images are displayed in the developer module. I'll need to investigate further to find out why Lightroom is not working with my GPU but at least I can use it now.

  • How do I spot what images are RGB using the separations preview?

    2 Questions: 1. How do I spot what images are RGB using the separations preview? 2. Is there an easy way to convert those to CMYK without opening each one in PS? I did this before all the time but I'm rusty and can't remember how I did it. I'm on CS6.

    You can one of several methods to find out:
    (1) You can use the Links panel.  Open the Links panel. Go the panel menu and choose Panel Options. In the Panel Options dialog, Under Show Column check "Color Space". Now when you view your Links panel it will show the color space of all linked images.
    (2) You could use Preflight, and set up a Preflight Profile. In the profile, go to the Color section > Color Spaces and Modes Not Allowed, and check RGB. Then any RGB images would be flagged.
    (3) If you need to know BEFORE you place the images, use Adobe Bridge. Open the folder where the image are. Use the Metadata panel and view the color space of the images.

  • Only the Admin can view the data in the Discoverer Reports

    Hello,
    Discoverer Version Info:
    OracleBI Discoverer 10g (10.1.2.3)
    Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Plus 10g (10.1.2.55.26)
    Discoverer Model - 10.1.2.55.26
    Discoverer Server - 10.1.2.55.26
    End User Layer - 5.1.1.0.0.0
    End User Layer Library - 10.1.2.55.26
    Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
    Everything was working fine until we applied some database patches.
    Users cannot see any data in the discoverer reports. Only the Admin can see data. Even the LOVs do not populate any values for the regular users.
    Can someone please advise as to what is happening?
    Thanks.
    Thanks.

    Hi Akshaj,
    It would certainly be hard for me to replicate (I am on 10g), but perhaps you could identify the patches that were applied and this would help people discern the problem.
    I would narrow down this problem to one business area. Next, identify what users or responsibilities have been granted access using the Discoverer admin tool. Has anything changed?
    Confirm which users have been granted access. Has this changed because of the patch?
    I would look at the session sql to see if there is some change after the patch (something like this):
    select
    from
    v$sql
    where
    parsing_schema_name = 'APPS'
    and module in ('Disco10, DISCOADMIN:Discoverer_login_responsibility','dis51ws@apps_server_url (TNS V1-V3)')
    order by first_load_time desc;
    Hopefully you have a test or development environment which has not received this patch and you can juxtapose the authentication behavior.

  • Invitation Error: Only the Organizer can change this event

    After doing a clean install of Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro, I was getting the following error when trying to edit some iCal events:
    Invitation Error: Only the Organizer can change this event
    The iCal events that I couldn't edit had all been ones where I had sent invitations to someone else. When I double clicked them to attempt to edit them, I received a popup that would allow me to accept/decline the event, but not edit it. I noticed in the popup that it had the email address of the original invitee plus my own email address. I'm sure that my own email address wasn't there before.
    I took a look at "My Card" in address book and it only had my name and no email addresses.
    After the install I had synced iCal and Address Book with MobileMe. The sync said there was a conflict with my Address Book entry and I accepted the one from MobileMe, thinking I hadn't put anything in the one on my laptop yet anyway. I ended up with the original of my Address book entry, but not marked as "my card" and an entry with just my name marked as "my card".
    When I merged the two cards and made sure the resulting card was marked as my card, I could then edit the iCal events. I think it was the fact that "my card" now had my MobileMe / .Mac email address in it that allowed me to edit the iCal events.
    So if you're having this problem editing events, check your My Card in Address Book and make sure it has the appropriate email addresses in it.
    - David
    PS - There was an earlier post with this topic, but it didn't mention this solution. I would've replied to that post but it had been archived and replies were not allowed.

    I have found a way around this. If you drag the event to your desktop, it will create an .ics file. If you open this file in TextEdit, you can delete the line that begins with ORGANIZER:. Save the file and bring it back into iCal. iCal will now assume you are the organizer, allowing you to edit. You may also want to delete the other attendees in TextEdit, as iCal will also want to send updates if you make changes to the file (because it thinks you're the organizer making changes to your own calendar event).
    This isn't an ideal solution, but it lets you make the edits. Hopefully Apple will change this in a future Leopard update or in Snow Leopard.

    This changes the way swfs are written out when they contain embedded lossless images,
    such as PNGs and GIFs. The old code had a loop to write a byte at a time; the new code
    does a single biblt. The result is a modest compilation speedup, on the order of
    several hundred milliseconds when compiling Flexstore.

    Hiya, Mike,
    It's pretty tough to work through pasted-in code. If you can, please upload a page to a server, so we can see your pages in context. We'll be able to download it and look at it.
    That said, you can do this: Find the beginning of an editable region in Code View. It will look like this:
    <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="nameofregionhere" -->
    Click anywhere in that tag, between the opening bracket and the closing bracket.
    Then, on the vertical toolbar on the left side of the Code window, click on the "Collapse Full Tag" button. It is the one with two arrows pointing at each other. This will collapse that entire editable region. Then click the button with the two arrows pointing away from each other. That will re-open the editable region, but will highlight it.
    If you have nested regions, you will find the other inside one of the editable regions. If you copy the <!-- InstanceBeginEditable and do a search on it in that document, you will find the nested region.

    Thanks John,
    I've downloaded the exif tool + the gui - I can see how it's meant to work and have successfully processed a single file (even when I got the name wrong it still copied exif time data!)
    I'll investigate further on how to do a batch and use command line
    Really appreciate your prompt response to my problem. 
    I will let you all know how I get on - will take quite a few weeks but I am confident I can get there!
    Thanks Mike
    A week later I've now got back into this.  I used the exif gui tool - which was very simple to use once I sat down with peace and quiet for 10 mins!  I successfully copied and updated the correct exif data including capture time from the original backup files.  My metadata keywords remained untouched when I then updated the metadata setting from disk in lightroom.
    exif is a great tool, and I found it easier to use than AM pro - I couldn't  see the photo attributes in the trial download so made it hard to sort by date.
    Anyway my problem was overcome thank you

  • My Photos Are All Over The Place Can I Move Them?

    Yes you can do that within Lightroom. I recommend you look at Julianne Kosts Lightroom videos on AdobeTV regarding cataloging - they are free.
