Still Pictures Appear blank

I am using imovie HD6 and when I import simple pictures into imovie, they appear fine when they are loading but then they turn all white. Why is this?

Hi w
Think more info is of need.
- Where did You import Your photos from ? iPhoto or desktop/folder.
- What format is Your photo in ? .jpg, .tif, .bmp, .pic, .pin, .gif or .psd
- What size ? 780 x 640 pixles (or XX Mb)
- Did You use "Ken Burns effect" or turned it off ?
- When did they go white ? after iMovie did rendering in TimeLine or
after export to iDVD and rendering then ?
AND
- Mac OS X. ??????
- iMovie 6.0.?
- QuickTime 7.?.?
Yours Bengt W

Photo appears blank in dotted framework

since I install leopard on my powerbook 15", 1.250 gigabytes ram, I have time to time difficulties in browsing my pictures in iphoto application updated at latest version.
The pictures appears blank, within a dotted framework; I could check that the iphoto database really cointain the real data, so I am afraid it could be related to leopard which does't perform well on my old powerbook.
Thanks for advices.

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
If that fails you may have a damaged database:
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums back.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Changing the length if still pictures

I'm having difficulty changing the length of time a still picture appears in my movie. I set my default to 5 seconds, but some ended up longer so I tried to manually change it by right clicking on the picture and entering in the new time, however, for some reason that did not work. What am I doing wrong? Is there any wat to change the time for all pictures at once?

Select all the still images and right-click and use duration. If those does not work could you explain exactly what you're doing in your sequence and what happens when you do it.

Clicking on a picture or link that will automatically open up a 2nd window to view, but the window will open up but it appears blank

When clicking on a picture or link that will automatically open up a 2nd window to view, the window will open up but it will just appear blank and says Type a Web address in the top bar.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

My OWN personal contact picture/icon appears blank/white in Contacts/Mail!

My own personal contact picture/icon appears blank/white in Contacts/Mail!
This is very frustrating since I work very hard to keep up my contacts all up to date. Everyone seems to work fine, except for my own picture! Why???
I took various advice such as:
Try deleting the photo on each of your devices, once you are sure your photo is not attached to your card on any of your devices, re-add it on your Mac.
You might also check, if you have a user account on more than one Mac, that the picture used in system preferences >users & groups do not contradict each other.
Alas, nothing works. I chose my new picture in "System Preferences" but it appears blank in Contacts and in Mail. I kept my icon picture in my iPhone 4 clear and nothing yet has appeared their either.
I think that the most frustrating part about all of this is that the minute I try to Edit my own picture in Contacts, I add the same picture that in my System Preferences (Users & Groups) and as soon as I press "done", the picture dissapears and becomes blank/white again. To add insult to injury, if I go back to edit my picture in Contacts and choose "recent", there's a blank (white) icon that appears as the latest utilised picture. I'm not 100% sure what that white image is, but I'm sure it has to do with iCloud somehow.
Please help me, I would actually love to have an icon picture (Like all my other contacts!)

File created in InDesign CS5.5 appears blank in InDesign CC.

When I open a file originally created in CS5.5, the pages appear blank. Moving my mouse over the page boxes highlight, showing that the original elements are still there but not showing. Links and text are there but do not show unless zoomed out to 25%, but disappear again once zoomed back to full screen. What's the fix for this?

Try exporting to IDML, preferably from the original version. See Remove minor corruption by exporting

Cannot Export JPEG still picture from MPEG

I am trying to use Quicktime Pro 7.1.3 to export a still picture (in JPEG format) from an MPEG video, but this is not working. I followed the directions in the QTPro User Guide: I play and then pause the video once it reaches the desired frame. Then I select FILE->EXPORT and in the "Export" selection box, I select "Movie to Picture". Then I click on the "Options" button, and select the Compression Type of "Photo - JPEG". I must say I am puzzled as to why I then see a ".PCT" extension added to the filename. Also, I don't understand why, in the "Save as" selection field, there is no selection for "JPEG" file extension, and instead there is but a single type available which is called "All Files (.)". It makes me think I am not understanding how to use this function. After I click on the "Save" button, a small popup windows appears, and it shows that a file is written. When I try to open that file (on my local hard drive) with my Firefox browser, I get a plain text message in my Firefox screen which merely names the file. I also tried specifying other compression formats under "Export to Picture", and also tried using Firefox and other programs to open the files written by this Export operation, all without success.
If I use s different Export operation (Export to BMP instead of Export to Picture), I can get a usable BMP, and I can use another tool to convert this BMP to a JPEG, but the resulting JPEG is only a little over 30k in size, and I believe I am getting a lot lower picture quality than what I might get if QTP could directly Export to a JPEG.
Here is some info on my environment: I am running Windows XP Home Edition with SP2. Hardware is a Dell Pentium 4 with 2.8GHz cpu, 512MB ram, and over 50GB of free space on the hard drive. I just installed QuickTime Pro 7.1.3 today (and I have already tried de-installing it, and re-installing it, and this did not help).
Am I mis-understanding the instructions in the User Guide? Can anyone suggest how I can get QTP to Export a still image from an MPEG video directly to a JPEG file? Thanks!

QT Pro does not export to jpeg or other image formats. Instead, the picture export (Movie to Picture) creates a PICT format file which contains the frame in the specified compression inside the PICT file. PICT is thus a container file format which can contain image in many different compression formats. If you need an actual jpeg format file you will have to export to one of the uncompressed formats and then use some other graphic utility to convert that file to jpeg format.
Alternately, you can use QT Pro to Copy (Edit menu) the frame to the clip board and then a graphic application to import that frame from the clip board and export it in jpeg format.

Hello Maxayla,
It sounds like you are getting error code 1 when you were attempting a restore. I would use these troubleshooting steps from the following article which mentions that error code:
Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694#1
Check for hardware issues
Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

Import to iphoto8 from HD - image appears blank

Help!
I shoot raw with my nikon d80 and use capture one to convert to jpeg before i import into iphoto. this has not previously posed any problems, but yesterday when i imported all the images appear blank/black both when i view all events and if i open the specific event. However, i can open the blank images from there and view and edit them (though in edit the smaller thumbnails on top are still blank). This is more than just irritating! Please help!

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.

How to set the default duration for still pictures ?

Hi there,
At the moment, when I drag a still picture from Viewer window to the Canvas window, a default 10-sec duration of the still picture will appear on the timeline.
How do I set this default to 8 seconds ?
I tried looking at User Preference and System Preference but cannot locate them. Maybe I miss them ?
Can someone help me on this, please ?
Thanks

Also there is a bug in FCE and FCP which affects PAL.
If you set the still for 8 seconds it will come out at 6 seconds and 20 frames.
So if you want a really exact figure you will have to set it longer by maths or trial and error.
Yes Ian, just noticed that there is a bug !
Mine was set to 12 secs & I always got 10 seconds.
Now I set to 12 secs & I got 8 seconds.
It looks like it is always 2 seconds less from what you set ?
Thanks

My subform page is appearing blank as page 2 when I preview??

When I preview, my subform page is appearing as page 2, blank. Shouldn't I only be seeing my Page 1 and not a blank 2nd page? I only have the text fields in the subform and also have it setup as hidden.

TY Radzmar for responding, my pagination is set to 'following previous'.
I have set up in DocReady for subforms to be hidden. Still getting 2nd blank page.

Why does my photo's not email on the classic or journal view? It appears blank.

Why does my photo's not email on the classic or journal view? It appears blank and no photos are emailed. I don't want to always use the themes

Make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot and the option to rebuild the small thumbnails.
Click to view full size
Now those two templates again.

Safari Downloads Window appears blank

While I am downloading something, anything, the downloads window in Safari appears blank. At the bottom of the window, it still says "Downloading 1 item" or whatever the exact words are, and the downloading object can be found in my downloads folder with the loading progress bar on it. The download completes just like normal, and all ends up well. But I don't know how to make the item come up in the downloads window. There is nothing listed although it is obviously downloading. Any help would be appreciated! Also, I am using Safari 4.0.4.

Well, I can't add much useful to this topic, but I just wanted to say that I've just found I have the same problem.
The only way to tell if my downloads are progressing or not is to keep checking the files themselves in Finder. A real PITA, that!
