Thumbnails do not match image

I finally got through several thousand pictures taken over the past five years, applying keywords and setting up smart folders so that I could begin working on some books for print. And now suddenly, nothing seems right. I'll select a group of pictures by album or keyword and what displays as thumbnails in the library are not right, they are pics in my library but should not appear in this group. So then I click on the thumbnail to view it full size and the image displayed changes to the appropriate image that would belong in that group.
Also, several pictures look stretched or squatty in the thumbnail view.
iPhoto version 5.0, OSX 10.4.2

Hi Melanie,
See if a rebuild of the library will help.
Close iPhoto
duplicate the iPhoto Library folder found in the Pictures folder. This is essentially a backup in case you do not like the results of the rebuild.
Launch iPhoto holding down the Command and Option keys. Hold them down until the rebuild screen pops up.
choose the thumbnail options to rebuild.
Get back with results.

  • Thumbnails do not match video content when imported

    My thumbnails do not match video content when imported. They assume the look of the first video imported into an event, while showing correct source content when skimmed through. Also, audio for every video clip I import is changed to that of the first clip imported in an event. Very awful to realize only when you've just imported every video you've made. Any thoughts?
    Also, my source for clips is an external OneTouch drive, don't know if that plays into the import problem.

    Is your Event source list visible on the bottom left of your screen? You should see all your events there.
    There is a button at the extreme lower left of the imovie window which allows you to show or hide the event list. Make sure that it is in show position, so you can navigate to your other events.

  • In iPhoto, the thumbnails do not match the real photo, they repeat often the same 15 photos over and over

    My iPhoto 9.3.2 (670..63) in Mountain Lion is repeating a grouping of thummnails whose photos when you click do not match.  I have called Apple Care and have reinstalled a new iPhoto library and still have the problem.  We did al this after the update but not the upgracde to MOuntain Lion. This issue is so annoying since instead of easily looking thorugh the thumbnaisl I have to click on each thumnail to see what is under them.  Please help.

    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 rebuild the thumbnails. It can take 3 or 4 goes for this to work

  • Sound does not match image - ????

    I am now having the same problem with my mac mini that I was having with my G4 powerbook.
    When in imovie I choose share and then videocamera and send the movie to a video camera, sometimes the voice of the person speaking does not match the lips.
    Usually if I do a restart, and make the same movements then it will work okay.
    The camera is a JVC.
    Any ideas???

    Robert,
    Try these fixes in iMovie before going to iDVD,
    b even if the problem only occurs after burning

  • IPhoto images appear as thumbnails but not full images

    Trying to e-mail images, using either drag-and-drop or copy/paste shows a warning triangle in iPhoto or an empty file in the e-mail.
    Some images are OK.
    Has there been a problem when iPhoto amends the library after an upgrade?
    I'm running the latest version 9.5.1.
    If I need to replace images using TimeMachine, how far do I need to go back please?
    Thanks in anticipation...
    g.

    What happened directly before this problem occured? Was it directly after upgraded to iPhoto 9.5.1? Did you move your iPhoto library? Delete photos using the Finder? Where is your iPhoto library located?
    warning triangle in iPhoto or an empty file in the e-mail.
    This idicates that iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails in the Browser and the original image files. The originals may be missing.
    Too late   Thry to rebuild your iPhoto library with the First Aid Tools, or, if even that will not succeed, with iPhoto Library Manager.
    The procedure is described here by Old Toad:
    Rebuild iPhoto Version 11: Old Toadhttps://discussions.apple.com/message/22114274#22114274
    Try first "Fix 1", then "Fix 2".

  • ITunes 7.3.2: ArtWork does not match Images on Cover Flow View and iPod

    Hello everyone, this is my first post, thanks in advance for any and all help.
    I have loaded most of my music collection onto iTunes, and authorized it to get album artwork. It has only found about 60% of my cover art (I have a lot of international discs, etc.), and of what it does find maybe 60% is correct. So I have spent a lot of time adding artwork by either scanning in cover art or cutting and pasting from the web. I go to "Get Info" and check the artwork tab all the time to make sure that only artwork that is correct or that I have added is attached to each of my song files.
    However, I have noticed that there is a significant amount of my song files that, when I use cover flow view, or when I play the songs on my video iPod, the artwork that is on the artwork pane and what appears on the cover flow view don't match. Or the artwork that is in the artwork pane (and the only artwork in the get info artwork section) and what shows up on my iPod, don't match up. It is, for an OCD completist like me, rather annoying.
    As an example, I have a lot of compilation albums. I have probably 13 different albums by different artists but which all have the same name of "The Ultimate Collection". There are some tracks for each album where the artwork pane and the cover flow view artwork match, but not all of the tracks.
    I selected "group compilations when browsing", but that doesn't help. I selected all the tracks from the same album and clicked yes to whether it is a compilation, and that didn't work.
    Does anyone have a simple, QUICK solution for making the artwork I have put in the artwork pane override or force itself on the cover flow view? Horrible phrasing I know, but thank you in advance for your help!

    I had the same problem when I updated to 7.3, but I was able to fix it.
    As far as I can tell, itunes 7.3 sees all music files (in your user/itunes/music folder) with the extension .mpg as quicktime movies, not mp3's and itunes won't let you add a cover to them. The problem is that songs imported as mp3's by previous versions of iTunes were all given the extension .mpg and not .mp3 (at least on my machine). I was able to fix the problem by simply changing the .mpg to .mp3 for all of my songs. As soon as I did this, the album artwork showed up again.
    You have a few options for how you change the extension. You can right click on every file in your itunes library and select "Show In Finder" to change the file extension, or if you have many songs to fix (I had 793) you can download 'A Better Finder Rename' (search for it at www.versiontracker.com, it costs $20 to change more than 10 files at a time) which will make the changes automatically. If you are cheap you can always set up an automator work-flow to get the job done.
    Hope this helps

  • Preview and print does not match image in LR

    I tweaked an image in Develop and printed some 5x7s until I got it right and then went to 13x19 (first time ever using that size with my R3000). The print preview and the print  were way too red. I went back to a 5x7 and it was way red as well in print preview, so I didn't print. I replaced a light magenta cart that I think ran out during the 13x19 print, and then some others that were low, and did a nozzle check and that was okay. I have spent hours looking around all of the settings (sRGB) and can find nothing that would explain what changed between my last good 5x7 print and the red 13x19. I went back to earlier versions and had the same problem. Monitor is due for recalibration, but that probably has nothing to do with it since it changed so suddenly. Any ideas of what to do?  R3000, LR 4.3, Win 7, NEC PA 271w, beginner level

    A print that is too red / magenta is an indication for double color management, i.e. by Lr and by the printer.
    Color management must be done only by one: either by the application (Lr or Photoshop) or by the printer but never by both.
    When you select a printing profile in Lr that means that now Lr is doing the color management. Consequently you have to switch off colo rmanagement in the printer dialog (printer driver).
    See screen shot:
    Or, you can do it the other way round: Let the printer do the color management and select <Managed by Printer> in Lr.

  • Preset crop tool not matching image size after crop.

    I am a labtech at a community college and look after 48 mac pros in which the students use the entire creative suite. (I only mention this becuase any answers need to consider variations in system settings or photoshop settings. college students get into everything!)
    But the issue is when you select the crop tool and enter a custom constraint and crop
    The image size is sometimes a full 2 inches off of what you set as a crop?! I havn't run into this before, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
    [I do know you can use the drop down box and use {size and resolution} but I want to know why it doesnt work under custom and unconstrained]
    Thank you again.
    -mason

    Looks  like you are just setting the aspect ratio. You need to enter units of measure (8 in X 9 in) to crop to a specific print size.

  • Numbers in web gallery and resource image folders do not match

    When I create a web gallery in Bridge, the numbers in the resource image folders, (Large, medium, thumbnail) do not match the name and numbers in the gallery and are completely out of order. The numbers are long and random.  My client is trying to email the small files and cannot locate them easily.
    I have never had this problem before....can you help?
    Thanks!!!

    Thanks Think, I've tried that. The strange thing is when I
    open the page in Contribute, it shows the original image. When I
    click Edit page, the image I want on the page is on the page. Not
    sure what I've done. Pages were originally created in Microsoft
    2007 and uploaded to the web. I am using Contribute to edit, it
    seemed like it would be much easier to edit pages.

  • Why are my thumbnails not matching photos?

    Why are my thumbnails not matching the photos in my smart album?

    I am rebuilding my thumbnails--a slow process I am learning.  We'll see how that does.  I believe I have the latest version of both iPhoto and OS.  What happens is that the thumbnail does not match the photo.  The photo in the thumbnail is in the same series, but not the same.  Many of the thumbnails are the same photo from the series.  I'll report back on the success of the thumbnail rebuilding process.

  • Thumbnails not matching photos

    I was organizing photos in iPhoto '11 and noticed some thumbnails do not match their photos. Does anyone know how this could have happened or how to fix it?

    Database corruption
    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your thumbnails - this may take a few attempts

    Any advice??? Hope someone can help!

    iBookstore Publisher Support send me a fast response email which included some helpful info:
    Please make sure that all image files inside the ePub end with one of the following: ".tif", ".jpg", or ".png" and that the file itself matches the file extension type. To check if the image file matches the file extension type, please right click on the image then select "Get Info". Once the info tab appears, please make sure that the file extension type of the image file matches the "Kind" found under "General".
    For further information regarding embedded images, please refer to the iBookstore Asset Guide, which is available for download in the Deliver Your Content module in iTunes Connect.
    And they INCLUDED THE TRANSPORTER LOG (!), the log generated by iTunes Producer as it tries to upload a book. We were able to search for the Validation Error # within the log and find out which image Producer was trying to upload when it encountered an error. Turns out the problem was a corrupted screenshot jpeg.
    Grateful!

  • Thumbnails not matching underlying pictures

    When I open an event in iPhoto '08 the thumbnails do not consistently reflect the underlying photo. When I double-click the thumbnail, a different picture come up, the one that matches the ID info.
    I have a relatively large file (over 20K pix) stored on a USB drive attached to a Time Capsule so it can be accessed from various Macs, all running OS 10.5.5.
    Is there a way to rebuild the thumbnails? I am running the most recent version of iPhoto so the option of waiting for the automatic rebuild with an update isn't in play.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks!

    When I option-launch iPhoto,
    What you’re missing is the apple key
    *hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys* while launching iPhoto.
    The Apple key is also called the Command ket, it’s located just left of the Space Bar.
    Re other users, just me. I only access the Library from one machine at a time to prevent corruption.
    But are you editing or organising over a Wireless connection?
    Regards

  • Image on monitor window does not match red playhead as it moves

    While editing a movie, imported slides do not match the monitor view. As the red playhead moves along to the right, when a slide changes the image on the monitor remains on the previous slide. After about 15 secs the next slide appears, but briefly then it's on to the next slide.
    This is annoying. I have tried everything I can think of to overcome this (eg rebooted, pulled the plists, varied length of slides, started new movie etc). Fortunately, it does not happen with imported movies from the video camera. I can overcome the problem by placing transitions between all the slides, eg use a one-frame cross-disolve, but I'd rather not have to trick it this way. Does anyone have any ideas on this please? Thanks,
    Keith

    I also had the same problem. I have discovered that it is due to the upgrade of Quicktime. To reinstall an older version of Quicktime is quite tricky but I have solved the problem. There is no need to uninstall Quicktime 7.6.6. as this will be done later during the installation of the earlier software. Try this: Download a copy of Pacifist. From www.mac.oldapps.com download a copy of Quicktime 7.6.4. Open Pacifist, drag the installer box icon of QT 7.6.4 onto the Pacifist window. Click open package. When asked click "Replace" check the "all" box. This will over-ride QT 7.6.6 replacing it with 7.6.4 and your problem should be solved. Good luck! Let me know how you get on, please.
