Some app thumbnails are blank

How can I get the picture back in the thumbnail that has gone blank on the main menu page?

I don't have the answer, I just have the same problem (I think) your linked screen is all black. I have white icons, that have no description. They used to be fine. It seems like it was the 4.2 update if you ask me. they used to be fine. I was hoping to find an answer here too.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • After importing photos from a digital camera the thumbnails are blank.

    I purchased a new iMac a few months ago and had no problem with transferring (and viewing) my iPhoto library onto the new computer. However, now when I import photos from my iPhone or camera, the thumbnails are blanks (with little dotted lines around them). In order to view the picture I must double-click on the image. This makes it a difficult to locate photos! Help me please.

    I just got the iPod Classic and I don't see anywhere in the manual that I can still do this. Is it still possible to import my photos from the camera to the iPod?
    No, the new iPods do not have a camera adaptor able to do this. Why Apple have decided not to make a suitable adaptor available (the old one won't work with the Classic), I have no idea.

  • Movie thumbnails are blank on webpage but play okay

    I am using iWeb 08 and am very pleased except for one thing. My movie thumbnails are blank. They have a little icon in the corner and they play okay but there is no picture (except on one of them)
    Here's the link: http://web.mac.com/dregerfamily/Site/HomeMovies/HomeMovies.html
    I have tried deleting them, making a new page, etc but still nothing. Please help.
    Thanks!

    Thanks! I realized the thumbnail was black because almost all of my movies started with a black screen. Your suggestion was perfect!!
    One thing though, it seems like the movies load slower now. Could that have had any effect or am I just imagining it?
    Thanks again.

  • Dock application Fan appears but thumbnails and app names are blank

    Something strange has happened on my Dock. I grouped all the iLife apps by creating a new folder and moving links to the iLife apps into it. It works fine.
    Then I dragged this folder to the dock to make a fan of iLife apps. It simplifies my Dock. This worked fine for a while.
    Recently, the fan has come up with blank thumbnails and blank app names. Mousing on the blank entries starts the app, just as before. But of course it now I don't know what i am launching. When I reboot, the fan shows all just as I wanted -- for a while. The it blanks out again.
    what is going on? I want to fix this.

    It appears to be a common problem. A restart will get it working again for awhile. See for instance this discussion:

    There are many others along the same lines.

  • My iPhone 5 has some apps that are no longer highlighted - iCloud, FaceTime, Twitter, Facebook etc

    Some apps are no longer highlighted on my iphone 5. They have always worked no problem previously. This morning iCloud, FaceTime, Twitter, Facebook, Flickr and Vimeo are no longer highlighted. I can use the apps but can't change any of their settings.

    It claims I have 13.2 GB of messages...I just deleted so many of these last week and only have a few open threads with people. what can I do about this? Suggestions?

  • IPhoto thumbnails are blank, but maximized photo shows up.

    I had to power of my iMac while iPhoto was uploading some photographs. When I turned it back on, iPhoto prompted me to restore the library. I said yes. Now the thumbnails aren't appearing, and when you double click a photo to maximize it, it briefly shows up with the grey yeild "!" icon and then the photo shows up, but the thumbnails are still grey. Is there a fix for this?

    Try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
    2 - Run Option #2, Rebuild Thumbnails.  It could take more than one pass to get the job done.

  • IDVD 4.01:  Some menus/folders are BLANK after burn.  HELP!

    I have a eMac, G4, 1GHz, 512mb and up to this point, iDVD has worked flawless.
    I'm working on a large project. Probably the largest I've ever done with iDVD. There are many pictures, several movies, a whole bunch of seperate folders, and everything has audio... The DVD previews perfect. Everything is the way I need/want it. However, the contents of some folders are blank (appearing black) after a burn. I'm stumped? I've tried recreating the folders, movies, images, audio in the affected areas. But, it's almost random! After some burns one folder will come out ok and a different one is affected. I'll fix one and the one I just fixed is blank! Any ideas? (I'm at witts end here)
    I've set iDVD to the 'Quality' setting in the perfs so it rebuilds everything on every burn. I've deleted all assets several times before a burn.
    Thanks in advance...

    Wow. Nobody had a soultion to this one...
    I decided a drastic change was needed. I absolutly had to get this DVD created. I assumed that either there was a problem with OS X 10.2.X, iDVD 4.01 or a Firmware problem with my Superdrive. The Firmware update for the Superdrive required OS X 10.3.8 or greater. So, that's what I did... I upgraded to OS X 10.4.2 and iLife 5. After the 2hr install and updates were applied, I attempted a burn. IT WORKED! I fixed the problem with a $70 purchase on eBay. I'm a happy Mac user once again.

  • Some Blog Pages Are Blank

    Some of my blog pages are blank. This typically happens with longer entries. The problem seems to be with the number of links on the page. When I add links and publish, the page is blank. When I remove some links, it is readable again.
    For situations where the page is blank, if I double-click on the page, it seems to be selecting the "invisible" text. I can copy and paste it into Word and then it is visible.
    I'm using the modern theme with no extra bells and whistles, just plain text.
    Any suggestions?

    How to I report problems? Does the "Provide iWeb Feedback" option under the iWeb menu actually work? Do they read that feedback or is there another place to go for reporting actual bugs in the program. I have a long list of concerns and issues:
    http://web.mac.com/resourcesforlife/journal/writings/Entries/2007/8/19iWebReview.html
    anything is better than nothing, I had my fare share of iweb ranting.
    when you decide to report problems; include your link and this thread.
    if apple sw engineers look at these posts (as much as they looked at my site -so closely- a year ago), perhaps they'll fix the problems.
    until then, chin up and keep smiling

  • How to allow some apps that are restricted by age?

    I have the restrictions for apps on my 10 year old's ipad mini set to 9+.  There are a few puzzle-based apps that are rated 12+ that I'd like him to be able to have.  Is there a way to enable only specific apps that I specify, or, is my only option to change the restrictions to enable all apps rated 12+?  I notice with Safari, you can disable it, but then can allow specific sites that I name.  I can't seem to find that option with apps.  I'm assuming it's not possible, but thought I'd ask in case I'm missing something....Thanks!

    With apps it's all or nothing, so you can either allow all 12+ apps or none of them, you can't just allow some of them.

  • Keynote video thumbnails are blank.

    I have placed video clips into my slides, but the tiles are blank. How can I get a thumbnail scene to give me a visual representation of the video I'm about to play?  I've loaded the mp4 files into the library and then synced through the Photos tab in iTunes. I have inserted and sized them with the media option. They play fine, but there is no thumbnail visible on the slide, so I am shooting in the dark. Any suggestions?  Thanks

    Are you trying to view Silverlight or WMV content? If so, you need the appropriate internet plugin: Silverlight or something called "Flip4Mac."

  • Some input dialogs are blank - no cursor, but chrome ok - why?

    I am trying to set dialogs in a JomSocial profile edit page. Some dialogs are editable, and others are blank and apparently don't accept input. When this is done using Chrome, there is no problem.

    Can you try in safe mode?
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

  • Categories in App Store are blank

    in iTunes for Windows, I go to the App Store dropdown and select a category and It comes up with a blank screen.
    Podcasts, Music, etc. work fine for categories, it's just the
    App store where they don't.
    I'm on iTunes 9.0.2.25

    Same things happen here! The categories in the iPhone app store becomes blank since Friday afternoon. I am in Hong Kong and this happens to the Hong Kong, Taiwan, China iTune stores. I also login to the US and Japan stores, but they were both fine!
    This especially impact me because I am an iPhone app developer and my app was on the top paid app list of travel. Suddenly, people loss direct access to my app in the store through browsing!
    Hope Apple notice and fix this problem soon!

  • Help! The App Store was telling me to update my apps so I did an 'update all'. Half way through they stopped and now I have some apps that are greyed out and I cants open them or delete them. What do I do?

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Hey Pagevc86,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like you might have some apps that seem to be stuck on "Waiting." The following is a past discussion that dealt with a similar issue and may help you as well:
    App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
    Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
    Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
    If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    Sincerely,
    Delgadoh

  • Some Photo thumbnails are black, selecting them crashes app

    Scattered throughout my Photos are dozens of photos with black thumbnails. When I select any of these, the image appears full screen but with the arrow overlay indicating that it's a video (which they aren't). One second later, the Photos app crashes.
    I have tried un-syncing and removing all photos from the iphone and then re-syncing. I have tried removing them again, rebuilding my iPhoto library and re-syncing again.
    The photos that are giving me problems appear to be perfectly fine in iPhoto.
    Image 1 http://cl.ly/4Ry0 Overall Photos navigation
    Image 2 http://cl.ly/4S29 Selected image incorrectly shown as a video. Just after this, Photos crashes.

    I'm having the exact issue.
