Portrait photo's turn black after import

Since a few days portrait photo's display as black in iphoto. I don't know what happened, I didn't change settings or anything else.
I have Iphoto V11, update 9.4.3.
I read about rebuilding the library by alt cmd during opening the program. Is there any risk involved? Im afraid to loose my photo's although I have a back up I don't want to mess with the current library if not necessary.
Thank you!

Screen turns black after log in

Hi,
My screen on my desktop turns black after logging in. I can still see the cursor. I hit ctrl alt delete, went to task manager typed in rstrui to do a system restore. I went back a few months of restore but it did not work.
The strange thing is sometimes I wait about 30-45 min the black screen goes away. But then restarting, I have to go through the same thing again.
Any ideas or help would be very much appreciated.
Ryan

Why do some of my clips turn black after they are transcoded?

I've been using the same camera (Canon T4i) with the same computer (Macbook Pro) for over the last two years. I've never had this issue. Tonight, almost all of my files imported without any issues. I chose to "optimize" the clips and kept them in their original location They all showed up in my clip bin, but after transcoding, about 5 of the 36 files/clips I imported turned black with no audio or video. I can look in the transcoded folder and see that they're there, but they do not have a thumbnail and will not play in preview. I tried to duplicate one of the original files with a different name and it still has the problem after transcoding. All of my original files play fine. They don't seem corrupted. Anyone run into this issue?

I have the t4i and a 2013 iMac and developed similar problems when I added an SSD in a OWC enclosure via USB3. I was getting over 300 MB/s transfer rates and thought that this was going to be a great help until I experienced all the drop outs in the video I was importing. I found out that USB 3 has a "burst mode" and I think that was the culprit when writing the video. For complete disclosure, I was using a USB3 Hub to connect the drive to the system (not directly connected.) Since I save my video files onto a separate (firewire 800) drive when I copy them from the camera, I don't know if this is a system wide problem, or just with FCPX. My problem seems to gone away when I connected the USB 3 SSD device to an Akitio Thunderbolt "Dock" which I think throttles the USB3 stream somewhat (not a lot, but SpeedDisk showed slightly slower speeds afterwards) or at least communicates better with FCPX.
Anyway, you didn't state what your media pathway was, and I'm just basically asking: is a USB3 drive involved?

How do I get Lightroom to delete photos from my iPhone after importing them?

Lightroom 4 imports photos and videos from my iPhone and puts them where I want them to go, and names the directories the way I want. All good. But it also leaves the photos on the phone to be manually deleted. Is there some way to have it delete the photos after import?

Not from Lightroom.

Pictures display then turn black after reload or switching tabs

Images on web pages load initially (usually) but then some turn black if the page is reloaded or if switching between tabs. Will also happen with pictures at bottom of pages on initial load. Sometimes the pictures will display normally again after scrolling, but not always. Happens when single tab is open, multiple tabs are open, and both in and out of private mode. Started in version 34 or 35, still happening in 36.

Correction: desktop version works for new reply but not when editing a reply.

6th generation iPod nano automatically turns off when I push het sleep/wake button or when screen turns black after a while. How can I solve this ?

My 6th generation iPod nano automatically turns off (=stops the music) when I push het sleep/wake button or when screen turns black for power saving mode. Does anyone know how to solve this ?
I have already tried resetting, connecting to PC/iTunes to check the software version, turning off/on, I don't have any inspiration anymore.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Hi VeerleD,
If your iPod touch unexpectedly powers off, you may want to use the steps in this article to troubleshoot -
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting (The steps apply for the iPod touch) -
Specifically -
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Where do the photo files end up after import?

Hi Everyone.
After being on a mac for about 6 years and having iPhoto for a couple of years I actually decided to give it a try. Ya ya, I know. Took me long enough.
Anyways. I've gotten all of my photos into iPhoto and have them organized, but I noticed that it imports and resaves them. So I burned all of my photos to a backup disc and then deleted them off my computer.
Where would I find the actual individual files for each photo that iPhoto copied over? I noticed that I can copy them to the desktop or use them in other programs but as of now I haven't been able to find, on the computer, where the actual files are stored for each picture.
can anyone help me locate these?
thanks
Adam

--First thing to know and remember is this...Do not drag any images, folder of images into the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Images have to be imported into iPhoto within the application. Do not scan images and save them into the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. Save them to another location such as the Pictures folder or even the desktop. You can then import them into iPhoto.
--All images that you import are sown in the library view. You can choose how you want to view, by rolls, by date, by rating, etc. When you put images in an Album, slideshow, book, etc, you are actually just putting pointers to those images in the library. You are not adding more images. If you delete an image from the Album it will still be in the library. If you delete an image from the library it is deleted from iPhoto's database and your hard drive (unless you have it backed up somewhere else)
--You have a folder of images on your hard drive and want to import them into iPhoto. Drag the folder of images into an open iPhoto Library window and the folder of photos will be copied into the library, resulting in a new roll with the name of the folder. You now have two copies of those photos, the ones in iPhoto's database and the ones on your desktop. You can keep the ones on your desktop that you just imported as backup or you can delete that folder.
-- you scan a picture/pictures and save it in a folder. You cannot scan directly into iPhoto or the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder.
You want all your photos in iPhoto so you import them into iPhoto.
Now you have two copies of that picture/pictures, so you can delete the originals that were in the scanned folder and keep the one/ones that were imported into iPhoto.
-- You download pictures from your camera into iPhoto.
There is now one copy of each of the pictures.
You want to change something about a picture you imported, such as
cropping it or changing the size, or changing the orientation.
Once you do that to a picture, you now have two copies of the picture
in iPhoto, the original and the edited one. The edited one will be in the library organize view. The original is packed away in an Original folder in your iPhoto Library folder under the date of the roll. You can always revert to the original by control clicking on the photo and choose "revert to orginal" You will not have this choice if you used iPhoto Diet to get rid of the Originals.
(a quick note on cropping within iPhoto...when you are in edit mode, you automatically will be in the crop mode with cross hairs to highlight the crop area. To finish cropping you must click the crop button and then go back to library view and your cropped picture will be there.
3.You want to use Photoshop or another graphic program to edit a picture in your iPhoto library.
You can open up prefs for iPhoto and choose "when double clicking on
photo ..do" choose "other" and select Photoshop. Now you can edit all
pictures in your iPhoto library in PhotoShop by double clicking. If you save the photo with the same name and as a flattened file it will be saved right into iPhoto and you will see the changes. If you don't want to save it into iPhoto then do a "save as" and save to the desktop. You will then have the original photo still in iPhoto and your new edited photo on the desktop.
Or, with iPhoto open, you can drag a picture from the library window
to your desktop (you see a + sign on the pic you are dragging). You now
have two of the same picture, one in the iPhoto library and one on your desktop. You can open up the one on your desktop in any graphic program and work on it. The one in iPhoto stays the same. You can also share/export the picture/pictures to your desktop or folder to work on them or do batch processing, etc. You will still have the originals in your iPhoto Library.
Or, you can open up the ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/folders and option drag any
picture out of the folder to your desktop.

Screen turns black after loading services

Hi
After an update with pacman, then screen of my laptop turns black during boot. At first the screen is working, showing the services that are loaded. Then it turns black. In a flash it shows the messages again, but then it stays black. This happens both in the multi-user.target and in the graphical.target.
I tried:
1) Downgrade the nouvaux driver
2) Full system update
3) Switch from nouvaux to nvida driver
4) Uninstall gdm
But this did not help.
The graphics card is a nvidia GT 650
Below are the folowing log files:
1) pacman.log
What could I try to get the screen working?
Cheers,
Sjoerd

Sections of screen turn black after using LogMeIn

We had a customer call in yesterday and we used LogMeIn to help her out with her email. Today she called in again and we used LogMeIn again, but this time as soon as we connected some areas turned black. After the connection ended and she rebooted, there are still black areas.

(The exception is the parts bloched out with mosaics)
I can't figure out how to fix this. If it was Linux then I would try resetting the X Server settings or go through the window manager settings or reinstall the proprietary driver if one is used. But this is a Mac, so I don't know. Any suggestions?

Not to solve your issue directly, but have you considered using ScreenSharing? It's built it and works quite well.

Every clip turns black after redering

Okay, what is going on? I just finished a beautiful iMovie with no problems. Now, I am ready to start another one. When I use any of the themes and drop my photos in, then apply, the clip goes completely black after redering and nothing plays. I tried adding photos with and without the Ken Burns effect and the same thing happened. What has happened to my wonderful iMovie application?
15 AL Powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Maybe it is this bug you are seeing:
Updating Ken Burns stills works only until you empty the trash in iMovie HD 6.0.2.

Display turns black after every 30-40 seconds

my display suddenly turns black during work! It happens about every 30-40 seconds. Then I have to press to lower the F1 Botton 2 or 3 times and then the F3 Buttonn several times until the light comes back. What happened? How can I fix this problem, which came after several days pause/standby?

Hey lubr,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your internal display. The following resource may provide a solution:

More photos in Photos than in iPhotos after importation

Hello,
after launching Photos the first time and importing my current library, I found photos I deleted months ago in Photos.
Actually, iPhoto current library have 16802 photos while Photos have 18082 (1280 additional pictures).
Any ideas how I can fix that without having to doing it manually?

MBP Display turns black after login

Hi,
When I wake up my MBP (15'' 10.4.10, Core duo, ATI Radeon), login, the screen
sometimes (may be every 4th time) turns black, but the MBP seems to be awake.
When I put it to sleep and wake it up again, it works fine. This seems to happen
more often after using a video projector.
May be the password was entered incorrectly, may be not. But it did not turn back
to the login screen either.
I don't have this issue with my iMac (different use though).
Any advise?
Thanks,
Dirk

Your issue sounds like the same issue i have on my 17" MBP. Are you waking then having to log in to wake from a screensaver?
I have my computer set to ask for authentication after it wakes and every once in a while, i'll wake my computer, and the authentication window immediately pops up, i proceed to put my password in then it goes back to black, although sometimes, it will the show the mouse cursor.
I dunno what happens, but I have noticed that when I do wake it up, the optical drive (i think) makes a noise as if it were reading, and that's usually when i get the black screen.
Anyone have any fixes? Could this be a video driver or hardware issue?
