Single Pictures fail to display

In iPhoto '11 (9.4.3) when I double-click on a photo in an album the picture tries to open but the screen goes dark.  The size slider at the bottom is at smallest but even moved to largest no photo appears.  The flag is there and the navigator (showing the photo), but the photo itself fails to appear on the screen.  When I double-click in the middle of the dark screen the photo briefly shows and then I quickly see the photo return to the album collection.  So the photo is there in single view, but it just doesn't appear.  Strange.  I should mention that I recently installed the new iTunes software on my iMac (where the iPhoto problem is taking place) and updated my iPad to the new Apple software and then sync'd it with my iMac.  Can anyone help with this?  Thanks very much.

A few people have fixed this recently by simply restarting the Mac.
If that doesn't help:
There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: 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. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: 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.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/ Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help: As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Contents of events folder suddenly displaying single pictures only, not a thumbnail of all photos, what has happened?

    Suddenly the contents of the events folders in iphoto is displayed with single pictures only, and not thumbnails. I wasn't aware I had changed any settings, but having looked at all the settings I cannot figure out how to change the display back. Anyone know what has happened?

    Does the zoom slider down left of the iPhoto Window help?

  • Can't click on photo when slider set to single picture

    Prior to Iphoto 08, when you set the slider to show a single picture (all the way to the right), you could double click on it to edit, drag it to a folder, etc. With iphoto 08, you cannot do this. It is rather annoying to use the large view to determine which photo I want, then move the slider to a smaller photo size (where you can see multiple pics) and then click on it or drag it. (as an example, if you click on a photo in the tiled mode, it brings up the picture info in the bar on the left, if you do it when that is the only photo on the screen, the info will either show the event or photo library info.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Jeff

    this is a known issue in iPhoto '08 and has been discussed many times at length on this forum - there is no know workaround except to slide the slide to the left and display multiple photos

  • Windows 7 x64 Pro, desktop GUI fails to display correctly, or crashes, when High RAM load, and even after. HW changed, same issue. Please Help.

    Hi Guys,
    I have have this horror issue with my PC. I have even changed the hardware configuration and the problem still persists. My PC fails to display the desktop correctly after using highly RAM intensive applications, especially Chrome, but even after getting
    the chance to close it, or waiting for it to crash by itself, the PC is still not able to display correctly the GUI, even on other browser/applications as shown in the screenshots. 
    1st Hardware Config:
    Intel Core2Quad Q9450
    4x2GB DDR2
    MSI P43 motherboard
    Ati Radeon x550 video card
    Software used, that seemed important for me to mention:
    NOD32 v4.2
    Comodo Firewall 5.12
    Chrome
    Screenshot Captor
    SpeedFan
    Other mentions:
    Aero is disabled, because I've considered that it's one of the causes.
    So, I've considered that it's a RAM issue or a videocard issue, and I've upgraded to:
    Intel Core i7 3770k
    4x8GB DDR3
    Asus P8Z77V-LX motherboard
    Intel GPU integrated in the 3770k CPU
    The problem just happened 2 times on this rig also, and the RAM was not even coming close to  it's maximum capacity of 31.7GB. It was at ~20GB's.
    Also, this is another videocard(Intel's integrated GPU), so we can exclude the videocard from the suspects.
    My suspects:
    1) some desktop manager bugs, or other similar issue
    2)  video memory allocation - I'm still suspecting that it can be caused by the amount of RAM dedicated to the videocard, currently, I think  that it is at 256MB.
    3) some poorly designed components of Chrome/Screenshot Captor - still very questionable since there are enough resources on this system, so there should be no fight over resources. And when the system is barely used there are no issues.
    4) Adobe Shockwave Flash - maybe this one????
    I have attached a set of 20 screenshots here, these were taken on the 1st configuration of my PC, using Q9450:
    http://imgur.com/a/Mc8hI#4
    Notice how it distorts the image by duplicating it and showing it in a smaller space, or how does it displays those black rectangles. In those moments, the PC is fully functional(the apps are running the background), without being slowish or something, but
    you can hardly control it like that. For example, I've tried to remove the mouse from the USB, and then I've insterted it back, the image was not displayed correctly, but the mouse was recognised instantly and the pointer was controlable.
    Same thing still happens on the new configuration. Please advise me.
    LE: OS is Windows 7 x64 SP1 Professional and it's Geniune. There is no cracked software on this PC. No games. I've tried to maintain it as clean as possible.

    Hi,
    First, please be ensured that you have installed the latest drivers and all the updates.
    Then check whether this issue will not in
    Safe Mode. If it didn’t occurred, I suggest you narrow down the cause in
    Clean Boot mode.
    In addition, try to create a new profile to see how it works.
    Hope this helps.

  • Bug (possibly?): SelectManyShuttle fails to display selected items

    Bug (possibly?): SelectManyShuttle fails to display selected items when valuePassThru="true" in ADF 10g
    Hello all,
    When run, the example below shows a Select Many Shuttle with four choices in the leading list. When items are shuttled to the training list and the page is submitted the trailing list is rendered with no items selected. Is this a bug?
    Configuration
    This example was constructed using jDeveloper 10.1.3.5.0.
    A new application was created using the Web Application [JSF, ADF BC] template although no business components are used.
    Steps to Reproduce
    1. Create the following backing bean class.
    package com.fmcna.adf.test.view;
    import java.util.ArrayList;
    import java.util.List;
    import javax.faces.model.SelectItem;
    public class ShuttleBean {
        public ShuttleBean() {
        private List availableItems;
        private List selectedItems;
        public void setAvailableItems(List availableItems) {
            this.availableItems = availableItems;
        public List getAvailableItems() {
            //populate with a List of SelectItem instances on the inital call to this method
            if(this.availableItems==null) {
                this.availableItems=generateSelectItemsList();
            return availableItems;
        public void setSelectedItems(List selectedItems) {
            this.selectedItems = selectedItems;
        public List getSelectedItems() {
            return selectedItems;
         * Build a List of SelectItem instances to be used by an af:selectManyShuttle
         * @return A List containing SelectItems instances
        private List generateSelectItemsList() {
            List initialItems = new ArrayList();
            initialItems.add(new SelectItem(new Integer(11),"First Choice"));
            initialItems.add(new SelectItem(new Integer(22),"Second Choice"));
            initialItems.add(new SelectItem(new Integer(33),"Third Choice"));
            initialItems.add(new SelectItem(new Integer(44),"Fourth Choice"));
            return initialItems;
    }2. Configure the ShuttleBean class as a session scoped managed bean as in the following faces-config.xml file.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
    <!DOCTYPE faces-config PUBLIC
      "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD JavaServer Faces Config 1.1//EN"
      "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-facesconfig_1_1.dtd">
    <faces-config xmlns="http://java.sun.com/JSF/Configuration">
      <managed-bean>
        <managed-bean-name>ShuttleBean</managed-bean-name>
        <managed-bean-class>com.fmcna.adf.test.view.ShuttleBean</managed-bean-class>
        <managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>
      </managed-bean>
      <application>
        <default-render-kit-id>oracle.adf.core</default-render-kit-id>
      </application>
    </faces-config>3. Create a JSP page containing an af:selectManyShuttle with a nested f:selectItems component. Wire the values for these components to the properties in the managed bean.
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    <%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252"%>

    <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>
    <%@ taglib uri="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces" prefix="af"%>
    <f:view>
      <html>
        <head>
          <meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
                content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"/>
          <title>testShuttle</title>
        </head>
        <body><h:form>
            <af:selectManyShuttle value="#{ShuttleBean.selectedItems}" valuePassThru="true">
                <f:selectItems value="#{ShuttleBean.availableItems}"/>
            </af:selectManyShuttle>
            <af:commandLink text="Postback"/>
        </h:form></body>
      </html>
    </f:view>4. Run the JSP. Validate that the trailing list is initially empty.
    5. Shuttle one or more items to the trailing list and click the Postback button. Validate that when the page refreshes the trailing list is again empty.
    Thanks for any input you might be able to provide.

    I'm holding my Nano in my hot little hands with ALL of the things you listed, but here's the sad, simple truth: you CAN'T use iTunes to sync everything. It works well for:
    1) Music
    2) Videos (except sometimes in Vista)
    3) Photos (as long as they're not too large)
    but is terrible for:
    1) calendar
    2) contacts
    3) To-Do lists
    For the latter use something like "iGadget" (www.ipodsoft.com). I also edit/store notes w/iGadget plus it allows you to export files, etc.
    I gave up on syncing iTunes w/Outlook long ago. Good luck.

  • Pictures do not display in my yahoo emails, but they show up if I go to forward the email, since I went to version 5.0 please help, win7

    Since I updated to version 5.0 of firefox, 95% of pictures do not display in the body of emails using my yahoo account. If I go to forward the email however I can find them displayed in the forwarding window. I do have all pictures set to display in the ff settings, and have not made any setting changes before or after the update. At first I thought it was the "New" yahoo mail, which I switched to from the "classic", but I cannot switch back. I finally opened my yahoo mail in IE, and the pictures show right up.

    -> Tap ALT key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar
    -> go to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled"
    Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. Now do this:

  • On windows 7 machine, safari fails to display web sites

    on windows 7 machine, safari fails to display web sites

    what happens is you type in the url and press enter then nothing.  the fix was to run "netsh winsock reset"
    If the winsock key reset helped things, that usually indicates trouble with a LSP. (That's also consistent with a 'silent" Safari page-load failure.) If you run into the problem again, perhaps try the following document:

  • I have restored my new replacement iPhone 5s from my latest iCloud back up. However my camera roll pictures are not displaying. Its not saying i don't have any pictures, it just shows empty white squares? How do I get my pictures back? Thanks!

    I have restored my new replacement iPhone from my latest iCloud back up. However my camera roll pictures are not displaying. Its not saying I don't have any pictures in my camera roll, it has all the spaces for them, but it just shows empty white squares? How do I get my pictures back? Thanks!

    It's difficult to say whether it's stuck or not as the time to restore a backup can depend on many factors.  You'll have to decide when you think it's just not continuing.  You could try turning the phone off (hold the power button until you see the red off slider, then slide to turn off), then back on to see if that would get it going again.
    When you're convinced it's just hung, you can go back to settings and tap Stop Restoring iPhone to stop the restore.  You'll then have to try restoring it again (Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup).  Be sure it's connected to your charger and wifi while it's restoring the backup.
    You might also try the approach posted here by ezjules: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589.  This seems to have worked for some people who had trouble restoring their photos from an iCloud backup.

  • Chinese characters failed to display on songs in rip from my own CDs

    My old hard disk was dead and I lost some of the songs that I had on my computer.  So I tried ripping my own CDs into iTune.  Unfortunately, all the Chinese characters failed to display properly.  The songs in my old ipod showed those characters nicely and properly so I do not even have guts to sync my old ipod now. Did some research on the net and it said that I can try convert ID3 tags.  Sadly, the new iTunes no longer provide this function.  Went to apple support site and they need me to buy apple care plan!  I have a ipad still in the warranty period but I am extremely disappointed that iTunes, a software, also needs me to pay for support.  This has cast me shadow of having my 4th apple product.  I am using the latest iTunes version 12.0.1.26.  Help on support of local language is truly appreciated. 

    You wrote "with my last ipod update". Are we talking about syncing your iTunes to the iPod function of your iPhone? Because if not you might be in the wrong forum. If so, then you need to remember that there is no "drag and drop" functionality for transferring your music onto the iPhone. You must first create a playlist within iTunes (I called mine simply iPhone) and then tell the iPhone to sync that playlist to your phone when you connect it to your computer. As you are probably familiar with creating playlists within iTunes you know that you can then drag and drop whatever you'd like into one, including both purchased and imported music.
    Hope that helps.

  • Ability to process several raw files with the same content but with different exposure into the single picture

    Can you add to the Lightroom an ability to process several raw files with the same content but with different exposure into the single picture?
    Base raw files can be given with exposure bracketing during shooting, for example.
    The goal - to get maximum details in darks and lights (if we use the "ligths recovery" or "fill lights" we lose the quality because raw file just have no all required information).
    The similar (but not the same, only the idea) thing - is High Dynamic Range Photography in Adobe Photoshop
    Thank you

    The plugin LR/Enfuse does this already. And of course Photomatix have a plugin available for Lightroom. This essentially amounts to pixel editing, which is beyond the range of Lightroom's metadata editing.

  • Motion 3, DVD Studio Pro 3, Compressor...fail to display interface

    Macbook Pro C2D, Leopard OS X 10.5.1. All apps were running perfectly before this happened...
    First, all the apps of Final Cut Studio 2 crashed on startup.
    I recall that the last thing I did is trashing the newly installed trail version Aperture.
    After checking the crashing log, I found the problem comes from Prokit.framework. I did a thorough search, the answer is quite clear that the Prokit.framework comes with Aperture 1.5.2 is a PPC version, it replaced the intel version that was in my OS. So the solution is replacing the PPC version back to Prokit for Intel. Finally I found some provided download links of Prokit for Intel. BUT..
    All the Prokit online are extracted with Pacifist from either Tiger OS disc or ProAppRuntime4.0.2.pkg(from apple's website). So they are either version 3.1 or version 4.0.2. After replacing my Prokit.framework with version 4.0.2, all my FCS 2 apps except Final Cut Pro (but Log and Transfer inside FCP 6) stopped crashing but failed to display any interface. But the icons are in the dock.
    So finally I cleaned up all the files related to Final Cut Studio 2 and Prokit.framework and did a fresh reinstallation of FCS 2.
    Same thing! No interface at all.
    At this point, I doubt if the Prokit.framework in Leopard OS disc is different. It's too bad that I'm traveling for a project and my Leopard DVD is not in hand. So I asked a friend using Pacifist to extract Prokit.framework and Browser.framework from his Leopard DVD and sent them over. Now I found that they are indeed different. The one from Leopard is version 4.1. I did a replace again. Now, Motion 3, DVD Studio Pro 3 and Compressor start up, but with black windows and a few images, and the menu bars are really weird. I guess I should install this two framework with Pacifist instead of replacing them with the extracted folders?
    The last resort I guess is to reinstall Leopard? My dilemma if I don't finish my project, I have no access to my OS DVD, but I need to use FCS 2 to finish the project.
    Has anyone run into the same situation? Any enlightenment will be appreciated!

    I have just installed Leopard ans having problems with DDVDSPRO crasshing, can you please expand on how i may install prokit.framework and Browerkit frame work with Pacifist. I am not an expert please bear in mind!!
    many thanks

    Hi,

    When I run risk analysis for 20 users in background mode, the job got successful but the spool file is empty. But at the bottom of page there is a message:  "Failed to Display Result".

    Hi Alpesh,
    You are correct. The issue is due to multi node environment.
    But when I tried to define a custom spool folder path: usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance No>/log/virsa/bgJobSpool (in RAR - Miscellaneous - spool files location for background jobs) & run the risk analysis report in background mode, still RAR is saving the spool files in default location only.
    Can you suggest me if I am wrongly defining the location of folder?
    Should we define the complete location of the folder i.e starting with drive letter or path starting with user/* is sufficient?
    Regards,
