Some Photos are blank after conversion from Aperture

Library contains 45K photos .. migrated from Aperture.  For some reason a large number of the photos have meta data but are blank.  Where have they gone?

Partial CLUE ..
Two photos .. appear to be dupes .. but the case of the file NAME is different.  The UPPERCASE JPG is blank .. the lowercase .jpg is not.
Ok -- Apple Engineers .. here's a start .. go fix.

  • IPhone 6 plus - SOME contacts are lost after restoring from iPhone 5

    PLEASE HELP!!!
    Went today to an Apple store for them to help me to do the restore from a backup as something was going wrong with iTunes.
    They seemed to "successfully" to do it - from iPhone 5 to iPhone 6 plus - all the apps moved, the interface, everything BUT after a couple of hours I've noticed that some contacts from the phone were missing and nowhere to be found AND now in the list of favorites ONLY SOME contacts don't have the names to them but only the numbers show up? WHAT'S UP with that?
    This is my 5th or 6th phone and the whole backing up and restoring never been this difficult... grrrr!!!

  • Some photos dont work after importing from iPhoto 4?

    Hello,
    I recently upgraded from iPhoto 4 to iPhoto 6. I updated my library by copying the iLife 04 photo library to my new iMac. When I opened up iPhoto 6, it updated the library, and everything worked fine, or it seemed. All the pictures and thumbnails were there, but on around 1/3 of the pictures, I only have a thumbnail. If I click on the thumbnail, the picture never loads. On ones with a picture it loads very fast.
    Any ideas?
    I have the library backed up on DVD, so im not worried about losing the data, just want it to work.
    Thanks,
    Adam

    Adam:
    It may be an ownership/access problem. Manually set the ownership and access on the iPhoto Library folder as follows:
    Setting Permissions for iPhoto Library Folder
    1 - Select the iPhoto Library folder and type Command-I.
    2 - When the Info window comes up go to the Ownership and Permissions section and make sure You have Read & Write permission and that the Owner and Group have Read & Write also. Others - Read Only.
    3 - Then click on the "Apply to enclosed items..." button.
    See if that may help. If not try selecting one of the files in the Original folder and type Command-I to bring up the Info window. In that window set Preview as the default application and click on the Apply to all button. Good luck.

  • From some reason (i'm not sure why..) my whole iphoto library got deleted. I restored the whole library from my backup. The photos are blank but steel have the photo info. (date, res., size etc.) Do you know what's the prob.? why can't i see my pics.

    It's says that file does not exist. How come? And why does it still show the image info.?
    Where can i find those files (i have a daily backup)
    The original image files are missing form your iPhoto library or iPhoto cannot find them, because the link to the originals has been broken. The image info is stored in the internal libraries, independent of the original files. That is, why you are still seeing them.
    I restored the whole library from my backup.
    Try restoring from an older backup, from before you first noticed the problem. 
    How large is the library, that you restored? Is the file size large enough to hold all your photos, or has the size been reduced?  If the library is still large, the photos may still be inside, even if iPhoto cannot find them.
    It's says that file does not exist. How come?
    What happened, before your iPhoto library got deleted? Which applications have you been running, or which new software have installed or upgraded?  Have you moved the library to a different disk or tried to use it from different user account or access it over the network?

  • 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...
    spyderman

    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.

  • HT201317 So if photos are deleted after 30 day from icloud

    If photos are deleted after 30 days from icloud, why doesn't my available storage increase if I have had "backup device" turned off for more than 30 days.

    That refers to photo stream photos, which don't count against your iCloud storage.  They also aren't contained in the iCloud backup; only camera roll photos are, which are not deleted after 30 days.  They stay on your device until you delete them.

  • Some images are blank in the windows

    Ads appear normal but photos and other images, like the calculator in the yahoo home page or news photos are blank squares. The imac G5 is new. It has a 2.16 GHx processor. It worked normal then developed this problem after a fooled around with the mouse settings. Anybody know how to get the images to appear? If I open the image in another window it appears.

    I have experienced similar problems; i.e., Quicktime logo with a question mark displayed in place of frame content or simply blank. Experience varies by webpage.
    Go to /Safari/Preferences/Security. You will see 4 choices under Web Content. From experimentation it appears that for website optimized for Explorer, un-checking "Enable JavaScript" will fix the problem but on other websites; e.g., Apple sites, this will disable some links. In other cases leaving JavaScript active and un-checking Enable plug-ins has the opposite effect.
    Appears to be a bug in Safari - 10.5 compatibility. Under 10.4 you can try moving QuickTime Plugin.plugin to the desktop from /Library/Internet Plug-ins.

  • Page numbers incorrect after conversion from Excel to pdf

    Page numbers incorrect after conversion from Excel to pdf
    ""This above link (thread:834599) is from a case back in 2011 that claims to solve this problem, but it does not solve this problem. I think that customer only cared about having continuous page numbering, not discrete page numbering per sheet.
    ========================
    I still have this issue in Acrobat XI and MS Office Professional Plus 2010. I keep upgrading to no avail. This regression has resulted in a huge time drain for me. If you fixed it, please explain how I can get my hands on the resolution.
    Previous versions of Excel and Adobe Acrobat enabled flexibility around the "Page #" of "Number of Pages" (Page &[Page] of &[Pages]) token, depending on context and usage. The "# of pages" token could represent EITHER the number of pages in the workbook OR the number of pages in the tab/sheet, depending on how you generated the PDF:
    You could select "Selected Sheets" and then select all or some of the individual sheets in the workbook, and the PDF would honor the discrete numbering of each of the sheets, so the first page of each sheet was p1 and the "# of pages" was the number of pages in the sheet; not the number of pages in the workbook; or
    You could select "Entire Workbook" and the PDF would honor continuous page numbers across all sheets, as a single document.
    Now, it only honors the total number of pages in the workbook, regardless of the method you use to publish to PDF: saving as PDF, printing to PDF, using "createPDF" from Acrobat plugin to Excel's menu ribbon; selecting all sheets, some sheets, or Entire Workbook; automatic First page number or "1" under Page Setup > Page> First page number. (This last option, btw, does restart every sheet at p1, but it hardly makes sense if the total number of pages is still the total number in the workbook instead of the number in the sheet.)
    I spent a lot of time trying each which way that the blog posts recommended and have tried this on multiple versions of Excel and Acrobat now.
    NONE of these time-consuming experiments gave me what I wanted.They all insist that "Page #" of "Number of Pages" (Page &[Page] of &[Pages]) is the total number of pages in the workbook or the total number of pages in the selected sheets combined.
    The numbering are correct in Excel Page Layout.
    The same issue happens when using LibreOffice calc. (Although, I never tested with Libre Office before, so I don't know that it ever worked).
    The workaround now is to create PDF for each spreadsheet one at a time, and then compile them using the Acrobat combine/binder feature. All alternatives are extremely time consuming and tedious. It used to be automatic. This is a major regression that has gone untreated for over a year now, maybe two years.
    My task takes infinitely more time to complete than it did with previous versions of Acrobat. That means that days are added to my project, when the functionality used to enable a quick pdf generation that was ready for review, now I have to do this very manual time-consuming set of steps to generate a draft. As the project has grown and more tabs are added, my pdf-generation task takes that much longer. We require lots of drafts. It used to be easy and fast. Now it is hard and time-consuming.
    In my opinion, the problem is not Excel; it is Acrobat because it was introduced with an upgrade in Acrobat, not an upgrade in Excel. The problem was introduced in Acrobat 9 or 10. Please provide a patch or add-on or something.

    If you are setting up the page numbers in Excel, the resulting PDF would display the the page numbers created in Excel. On Excel 2010 support page, (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/insert-and-remove-page-numbers-on-worksheets- HA010342619.aspx#BM2) is stated the following "tip" which indicates by default Excel 2010 starts numbering each tab with 1. Exel's workaround tip is below - 
    Set a different number for the starting page
    Tip   To number all of the worksheet pages in a workbook sequentially, first add page numbers to all worksheets in a workbook, and then use the following procedure to begin the page number for each worksheet with the appropriate number. For example, if your workbook contains two worksheets that with both be printed as two pages, you would use this procedure to begin the page numbering for the second worksheet with the number 3.
    On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click the Dialog Box Launcher next to Page Setup.
    On the Page tab, in the First page number box, type the number that you want to use for the first page.
    Tip   To use the default numbering system, type Auto in the First page number box.
    Also helpful in the same section is the note on viewing page numbers. To see if the page numbering dilemma originates in Excel make sure you are using the Page Layout View see below:
    Hide All
    If you want numbers shown on pages when you print a worksheet  you can insert page numbers in the headers or footers of the worksheet pages. Page numbers that you insert are not displayed on the worksheet in Normal view — they are shown only in Page Layout view and on the printed pages.
    Overall it may be easier not to create the page numbers in Excel but instead create then in Acrobat using the Headers and Footers option in Acrobat.  I hope this helps - it sounds like a frustrating issue you are experiencing.

  • My mail messages are blank after upgrading to OS X Mavericks. How do I fix this??

    My mail messages are blank after upgrading to OS X Mavericks. How do I fix this??

    Hi, I had this same problem. I have a load of work subfolders and was showing the message header but no content. I think it lost the link to the original messages.
    There may be a simpler way but I fixed it by going to the mail folders in finder. I took the following steps:
    Go to user library (hold down the alt key whilst clicking the Go menu in finder to access user library)
    Go to user/Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes. You should be able to see your mailboxes and your original messages (ending .emlx) after clicking down the hierachy in each mailbox. For some reason mail added a "-2" onto the end of each mailbox which I think has caused the problem.
    Copy each required mailbox (.mbox) onto desktop. I removed the "-2" at this stage to clean things up.
    In Mail, choose File/Import Mailboxes....
    Import data from: Apple Mail. Click continue, navigate to desktop and choose the relevant .mbox folders. Click Choose.
    It should then import the mail to a new folder called import in mail. You can then rename that folder or move the subfolders out.
    I moved the .mbox folders on my desktop to my documents folder as a backup just in case. I then deleted the problem mailboxes from the finders mailboxes folder.
    Problem solved - for me anyway!!
    Hope this helps.

  • Since updating to FireFox 29. there are a lot of FaceBook Friend's posted photos are blank now. How do I make them show?

    Since updating to FireFox 29. there are a lot of FaceBook Friend's posted photos are blank now. How do I make them show?

    If images are missing then check that you do not block images from some domains.
    *Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu bar.
    Check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    Check "Tools > Page Info > Media" for blocked images
    *Select the first image link and use the cursor Down key to scroll through the list.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and "<i>Block Images from...</i>" has a checkmark then remove this checkmark to unblock images from this domain.
    Make sure that you do not block (third-party) images, the <b>permissions.default.image</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page should be 1.
    Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.
    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"
    Note that these settings affect background images.
    See also:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Website_colors_are_wrong
    There are extensions like Adblock Plus (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images and other content.

  • In the last 36 hours my photos have jumbled within various albums. Random photos have attached at the end of an unrelated album, old photos have appeared again on Recently Added, some photos are missing but still on "collections". No date order

    Within the last 36 hours my photo albums have turned into a real jumbled mess. Random photos have appeared at the bottom of my Recently Added album. In most cases it's a copy of a photo that was taken months or years ago so now it appears twice.. 200 random photos have appeared in an unrelated album.  Some photos are missing completely. The date order is correct in some places and then it goes back and forth over the months and years. The "collections" appears to be okay.  This morning when I went into the photo app About 50 photos that were permanently deleted 3 months ago reappeared on the Recently Added Album which  I deleted again.  if  I delete these irreplaceable photos from the unwanted album it will delete the photo completely. Help please - this is so annoying and frustrating. I hate to think when I turn the iPad on tmoor row what else will have changed .

    Quick Update:
    I usually have my Mac laptop up with Messages running on it.  As you know, it will receive the same messages you send/receive on your iPhone.  I thought all my old photos would be there too, but they have all disappeared as well except for the last few.
    Messages is supposed to archive all old photos to  a directory called ~/Library/Messages/Attachments.  On my mac, this was a 0 byte file that was created back in Jan 2014.  As a result, none of the old photos got saved on my Messages app either.  I looked at a Time Machine Backup and it has been the case since September (no earlier backups available).  So, it's unclear how long this issue has been going on for my Messages app and how related it is to my iPhone problem.
    In any case, if any of you use Messages, you may be able to recover your photos in that directory provided it didn't get trashed like mine did.  I moved the file and created a new Attachments directory.  Upon relaunch, Messages started properly storing new photos in there again.
    Either there was a really terrible bug in the Apple software or something malicious has happened.
    P.S.  I'm running OS 10.9.5 Mavericks.   There is a thread of people with this problem on Yosemite here:
    No pictures are shown in Message om Mac
    This seems like a pretty seriously terrible bug.  I will be talking again to AppleCare on Wednesday and I hope they can escalate this.

  • How to get MobileMe photo galleries into iWeb or from Aperture?

    I currenlty use MobileMe for an iWeb  published site, on which I have a link to a several dozen photo galleries, all pub;ished from Aperture.  iPhoto has an iWeb "button", but Aperture does not so far as I can see.  I am trying to find the easiest way to keep all of my stuff intact once MM dies next year.  How can I migrate, not link, my MM photo galleries into iWeb, and/or publish them from Aperture into iWeb?  Once I have the photo galleries as part of iWeb, then I'll be able to use it to publish to another web hosting service.  Thanks!

    Do you have the original image files used to make up those MMe Galleries?  If so you can group them into albums in iPhoto and use the iWeb Album page or Photos page and ignore the MMe galleries.
    If the files are in Aperture and there's no Aperture section in iWeb's Media Browser you will have to export those files out of Aperture as originals and drag them either into iPhoto or into an iWeb photos page.  I don't use Aperture so an unsure of what can be done between Aperture and iWeb.
    If those galleries are the only copy of the photos you have you'll need to download the file (if the gallery allows it) and import into iPhoto before going into iWeb.

  • Suddenly all my albums in Photos are blank.  The photos are still in the camera roll but not in the albums.  What happened and how do I recover them all?  Are they in my icloud?  Also the photos are clear as thumprints but when I touch it to zoom are blur

    Suddenly all my albums in Photos are blank.  The photos are still in the camera roll but not in the albums.  What happened and how do I recover them all?  Are they in my icloud?  Also the photos are clear as thumprints but when I touch it to zoom are blurry.  what gives?  They were all completely clear and in the albums when I last used my ipad??  Would doing the "Reset" under General settings do that?  When I returned from Europe I reset my ipad to get it in the right time zone etc. 

    Reboot.   Press and hold the home and sleep buttons until the apple logo appears. Ignore the red slider.

  • Lightroom 5.6 Win8 64 import of some photos are not possible

    When Lightroom greys out a photo in the Import dialog box, it means the photo is already in the catalog. It doesn't mean that it is matched with an older photo with the same name ... in order for there to be a match, the file name and capture date and file size must be identical.
    So Lightroom thinks you have already imported the photos, and you think the photos have not been imported. Now I'm sure you are a very nice person, but I believe Lightroom. What you need to do is to find the photos in your Library Module and use them there. The photos can be found by searching for them by file name, after turning off all filters, and after clicking on All PHotographs in the Library Module.
