Thumbs show but large pics don't show.

I finally did the big move of 15gigs of pics to my external hard drive. Now when I use iPhoto from my external hard drive a good portion of the pics only show up as thumbs. When I click on a shot it just spins and spins with no pictures showing up. When I make the thumbs larger a good portion of the thumbs disappear. This is not good at all. All the old galleries show up as well as many of the pictures in full form. But seems like about half are not reading. What can I do? I startup the iPhoto with the option key and direct it to the hard drive and this is what happens. Yikes.

So you tried it and it ran and the problem persists?
Or you just couldn't get it to run?
I'm not interested in having a discussion on an "outside program" either. One of the possible reasons that you're having this issue is because of file permissions problems. BatchMod is a solution for that.
Other than that:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107947
gives you instructions on rebuilding the database, and if that fails, how to recover your files from the Library and start over.
So. Ya.

    You iPod has been jail broken.  Unfortunately you are on your own here. I can offer that you need to find out which method and software was used to JB.

  • I have taken all the steps to reset my tool bar so I can see the customized settings I make, but they still don't show up.

    I downloaded a new version of Norton 360 on 10/28/2012 and a couple of days later, I am unable to see the buttons I added to customize my Firefox tool bar. Norton says it is a Firefox issue. I have tried resetting Firefox and reapplying the buttons on the toolbar, but they still don't show up until I click on View|Toolbars|customize. I just want to be able to to see the "Print" "Zoom" and "Home" buttons every time I open Firefox. I have Firefox version 16.0.2 which Norton told me was downloaded to my computer 2 days ago. I guess this must be done automatically, because I didn't download a new Firefox version.

    You can try click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • "How do i add more than 2 downloads in Downloads window?" "Downloads window" only show 2 download and don't show third one and else

    How do i download more than 2 downloads in "Downloads window"?
    "Downloads window" only show 2 download and don't show third one and more, They be wait until one of first or second complete.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Downloads

    You have some extensions that related to downloading listed in the Troubleshooting information.
    It is probably one of them that is causing that problem.
    What kind of files are you trying to download?
    Are all the files downloaded from the same server?

  • In iPhoto, my thumbnails show but larger images do not, why?

    I am having trouble with some of my larger images not showing up in iPhoto. I click on "Faces" and go into pictures of my mom that I have tagged. I see all the thumbnail images of her, but when I click to view the images larger, it doesn't show the picture. It shouws a triangle with a !
    I am running iPhoto '11 (version 9.2.1)
    Please help me.
    Thanks.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    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. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 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 and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • HotSync works for backup, but addresses/contacts don't show on Desktop Palm

    Hey Folks,
    I have recently moved over to the Mac platform (love it, btw) from a PC (Windows XP).  I have spent a while scouring over the forum notes and have not found an answer to my problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Here it is: I have a Tungsten E, and use Docs to Go as the only 3rd party app.  I installed the Palm Desktop 4.2.1 for Mac.  I performed a Hotsync sucessfully, as well as, had the Docs to Go install an expense XLS and sync that perfectly.  The problem is when I go to view the contacts and addresses that have been backed up to the Mac from the Palm Tungsten - they are not there.  I have checked the Users.  I have changed the users.  I have created a new user, and deleted the old - then I re-sync-d the palm again and had the Desktop software re-create my username.  When I pull up a Finder window and I see the information that is backed up.  I cannot get the Desktop software to "see" my contact/address information.  All settings and paths are set for the default.  I am getting really frustrated at this point, as this is the only reason that I have to mess the PC world anymore.  Is there something that I am just being stupid about?  Shouldn't I just be able to move the data in the Palm from one desktop to another ?
    Thanks for looking into it, in advance.

    My system stats are:
    MacBookPro OS 10.5.6
    Palm Desktop: 4.2.1
    PC: XP SP2
    Palm Desktop: 4.1.4
    Tungsten E Palm OS v5.2.1
    Post relates to: Tungsten E

    As a long-time Palm and PC user who recently switched to Mac, I can relate to your frustration. I'm sorry to tell you that many of the capabilities we took for granted on the PC desktop are broken or changed on the Mac. A partial list:
    Records don't sync (as you describe). I found that if I open an individual address record that has, for example, a phone number in the email field, the opened data entry box has the correct information in the correct field.
    There is no password security on the desktop. On the handheld, you can choose to show, mask, or hide records that are marked private, and you can assign and require a password to unhide those records. There is no password capability on the desktop. You can "hide" private records, but it's like a kid covering his eyes with his hands and thinking no one sees him.
    The Help feature doesn't work. You get a glimpse of a help page but then it disappears and you're left with a page that says "Internet connection required."
    And, my favorite: The Note that is part of a Contacts record has been disassociated. Those Notes are now stored as Memos. On the desktop you can find the Note by clicking on the paperclip icon. But if you create the Address record and a Note on the desktop, they won't retain their relationship on the handheld. I.e., you can't get to the Note from the Contact record on the handheld. You can do a linear search through the Memos to find it.
    There are many more such annoyances. I imagine that when faced with all the possibilities that Unix/Leopard permitted, it was hard for the designers and developers not to take advantage of them. I appreciate that there are more possibilities with the new desktop environment, but they should have been left to another release, with an upgrade path spelled out. As it is, the Palm desktop on the Mac is useless. I'm now trying to figure out if I can get my Palm handheld contacts, including Notes, into the Apple Address Book.
    If anyone has solutions that I've missed, I'd be happy to retract my expression of disappointment. And, G-Manmac, I wish you the best of luck.

  • Pics don't show up in mail hotmail

    Why do I get a blue square with a ? Mark when looking at pics in email off my hotmail account?  If I login to my email using safari the pics show up fine!  Why can't it do that with the mail app???

    You’re missing that tinkering with the contents of the ~/Library/Mail/ folder in the Finder is not the same as importing messages into Mail.
    Mail 2.x keeps a reference to every message in a file called Envelope Index. You cannot tinker with the contents of ~/Library/Mail/ without taking Envelope Index into consideration and expect that to work. The right way to import mailboxes into Mail is doing File > Import Mailboxes.
    That said, you may be able to fix the problem by rebuilding the affected mailbox, i.e. select the mailbox in Mail and do Mailbox > Rebuild.

  • I created folders in iphoto on my imac, synch using itunes and selected all photos from iphoto but those albums don't show up...most my albums do but a few don't!??

    I have a new iMac and I'm a new mac user....I have an iphone5..and ipad2.
    I have created folders on the imac in iphoto.
    I am synching the ipad and iphone with mac using itunes...selecting all photos, 3,500+ and although all the pictures may be sharing on all devices, the folders aren't.
    I have created several folders and copied pictures into those folders and they look fine while in iphoto....but I can't get the to synch into ipad and iphone using itunes.

    Folders in iPhoto do not contain photos. Albums and Events do. Folders can contain albums, but not photos on their own.
    So, do you mean Albums?

  • Firefox3: photos now OK but movies still don't show

    The Firefox3-iWeb patch at http://tinyurl.com/6q9hd5 has restored photos on my webpages, but the QuickTime file that I imported from iMovie still doesn't appear. It works OK on Safari.
    Any suggestions about what I do to restore that too?

    Search for music and then buy it.
    If you already have music you want to import to the iPhone, connect it to your computer and open the iTunes application on the computer, and start a sync (in the lower right of the window).
