Question Mark on Place holders.  What happened to pictures

The picutures have been on my pages for weeks as I continue to work on my yearbook for my kids. Today there were question marks on the place holders. I tryed to shut down and restart my computer, and when I did this more pictures were missing. When I try to put the same picture back Pages tells me that "the file is corrupted". This needs to be done in 4 days so I am a little stressed. I saw this question posted before, but there was no answer for it. Does anyone have one now?
Thanks

Just reboot...if that doesn't work, re install iTunes...it won't get rid of your tunes. Trust me.

    My MacBook has a grey screen with a folder and a question mark in the middle what does this mean?

    It means a valid system cannot be found. You need to reinstall OS X.
    If you have Snow Leopard:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    If you have Lion or later:
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • I can't log in to my computer- when it turns on it has a white/gray screen with a flashing folder with a question mark in it.  What does this mean and how can I get it to stop to log in?

    Hi
    I dropped my macbook yesterday and it turned itself off. When I tried to turn it back on all I got was a white/gray screen with a flash folder with a ? in the middle of it?  What does this mean and how do I get it to stop so I can log onto my laptop?

    Deev
    Normally the question mark on the gray screen means it can't find the operating system. Have you tried booting up from the installation DVD? Do that, and when you come to the screen where it wants to begin a system installation you'll notice in the menubar where it say's utilites. Click on that and choose disk utility. from there choose your disk and try to verify and repair the disk. If you can you may want to also try and new install of the system. I don't know how much critical data you have, but reinstalling is an option. did you purcahse you from an Apple store? If you did you may want them to look at it. Hope this helps.

    Why do I get a ? in place of my phone book?

    By "phone book" do you mean "Contacts", the app embedded in OSX? Is the question mark sitting in your dock or in the applications folder in Finder?  Also, can you tell us which version of OSX you're running? (OSX version found by clicking on the Apple icon> About this MAC)

    Hello Ariane,
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive & clear caches.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    If 10.7.0 or later...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.

  • IPad 3 substitutes question marks in place of numbers

    In Calendar and other apps with numbers in headings, my iPad 3 (iOS 8) shows ?? instead. I have a 12 year old who uses it. Any ideas as to what might be causing this?

    Try a reset first. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad start up.
    I Really don't know why this would be happening but things that I would check would be third party keyboards in Settings>General>keyboards. if you have any third party keyboards installed, turn them off. The other thing that I would look at are widgets in the Notification Center. Pull down from the top of the screen to get to the Notification Center, tap the Edit Button and look to see if there are any widgets that you didn't enable yourself. If you see any, disable them.
    I am simply trying to think of things that could cause strange conflicts and that's why I made those suggestions. It's just a hunch, that's all.

  • When i am going to choose my security question the display gets white, what happened¿

    Help me please

    Many usb and firewire interfaces have had some static and audio out problems with os x updates. I have a Alesis Firewire Multimix and a M-Audio BlackBox that have between the two have experienced pretty much all the problems. I e-mailed both manufactures during these problems and they told me that they were working hard on fixes but as soon as they put up a fix Apple made more changes. They said apple was aware of the problems but need to make changes. I bought a Presonus Inspire because it was reported to work flawlessly "hardly" but it did work.
    To make a long story endless in the past few months Alesis and M-Audio and Apple pushed updates that totally fixed my problems. Best thing to do is contact M-Audio with your Mac's specs and os version and see if they have or are working on a fix.

  • Quicktime and question marks on web pages

    Any time I went to a web page that had a QT in it, it was fine. Now when I go to a webpage I see the QT logo with a question mark in it. What happened!
    Thanks in advance

    Regardless of what 'happened', Quicktime with a ? refers to Flash video. No idea why this question seems to get asked several times a day, by which I mean why is it suddenly happening to a lot of users. To rectify it, try this:
    These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
    Assuming you already run OS 10.4.9 or above and have Quicktime 7.2, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer from http://uk.real.com/player/
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    Adobe FlashPlayer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    In Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    The world should now be your oyster!
    You should also have the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.

  • What can i do when i get a get a file with question mark on it during start up?

    i was working on my computer when i froze up i had the spinning wheel would not do anything so i turned it off and back on. when it cam back on it was just a grey screen with a flashing file with a question mark on it. What does this mean? is my computer done?

    The advice Carolyn points out is sound, and hopefully it will work, but Apple needs to add some caveats to some of their "pointers" to resolving problems. If the system was working, you shut it off, then turned it on some time later and the problems emerged, the odds of it being a PRAM problem are good. For it to crash on you outright implies either an indexing problem or a problem with the hard drive or cables. In step 11, Apple should have added the phrase to zero the drive with Disk Utility prior to re-installing the operating system in the event a bad sector has developed on the drive because that would re-map the bad sectors to good, spare sectors. If it's yet another SATA cable problem, all bets are off. You'll continue to get what appears to be file corruption and problems, and it won't be consistent. If the problem is due to an actual surface failure on the drive then even though it might be fixable, you might want to consider replacing the drive.
    The only product on the market that can test for bad cables and bad sectors is Scannerz, and you might not even be able to use that if you can't even boot your system. When they added Phoenix to the Scannerz package I originally thought it was just to make TechTool Pro look bad, but now it makes perfect sense - you could boot off of a so called Phoenix volume and test the system and boot it independently of the internal hard drive and the internal cables, allowing you to isolate the problem.
    I would follow the advice in Carolyn's linked article up to step 11. If you get to that point, prior to re-installing the OS, use the Security Options settings in Disk Utility and zero the drive to correct (re-map) bad sectors. With luck this will be a relatively simple fix. With bad luck it will be the cable, which will cause problems down the line that will get worse and worse.
