Trouble importing art works

Hello all.
I am having trouble with an artwork which I have been trying to work with after importing it to Flash. The file has been saved as JPEG, PSD, TIFF, and PNG files, but all of those times, the art work comes out just as a block of red.
When i tried creating this same artwork in Illustrator, the gradient (top blue and bottom black) becomes reversed. I cannot flip the files since the top and bottom sides are different.
What could be causing the files to be like this?
Thanks all in advance.

Thanks for the answer! Rookie here in the process of learning flash. I will keep that in mind.

I am having trouble adding art work for itunes 12.0.1.26

I am having trouble adding art work for itunes 12.0.1.26. Trying to add artwork after you go into "get info" and then "add artwork" doesn't work. Can anyone help. BTW, went into the authorization edit and gave my user id permission to modify things as was suggested in one posting, but that didn't work either.

thanks a lot

Media Sync crashes when importing art work from iTune

I downloaded Media Sync from blackberry.com and tried to import musics from iTune. I understand that the newest Media Sync should allow this. However, when I start the import process, I get an error message at the start when it's importing album art: "Media Sync has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for any inconveniences" and crashes. Below is the error log:

Hi Music4lifebeats:
One of the tracks in your iTunes library seems to reporting an invalid Track Length. This is usually the result of a corrupt track. We can help identify what track is causing the problem...check you private messages.
You may be able to temporarily fix this problem by closing MediaSync and deleting the file %appdata%/ Research In Motion\BlackBerry Media Sync/ MediaSyncLibrary.tle.
However, if the corrupt file is still in your library, the problem will show up again.

thank you

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Having trouble importing select pictures from a cd to my iphoto library

I am having trouble importing (and viewing) my vacation photos from a cd to my iphoto library. Some of the photos I can view in finder, but when i click on the rest, I get a message that says "Item xxxx.jpg is used by mac os x and cannot be opened". When I tried to import the photos to my library... the ones I could view imported no problem, the ones I couldn't view will not import and I get a message saying "unreadable files: the following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data)". I am just sick that I cannot find these photos!!! =( especially since I had them on iphoto before I cleaned out my computer (so I've had them in my library before). Any ideas? I am in desperate need of help! =(
P.S. When I try to move the pictures to my desktop, I get a notice that says, "you may need to enter the name and pasword for the administrator on this computer to change the item named xxxx.jpg"... when I click continue, another message pops up and says, "the item xxx.jpg contains one or more busy items that cannot be changed"

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What do you have set in the System/CDs and DVDs preferences to do when a disk is inserted? If the option is not set to the Finder do so and see if that will make any difference.
Otherwise boot into Safe Mode and see if you can copy the files from the CD to a folder on the Desktop. Boot back into your normal account and see if you can import. Or import while still in the Safe Mode.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I can no longer add album art work in iTunes version 10.6.0.40

WHY can I no longer add album art work in iTunes version 10.6.0.40? It is maddening. I have checked many boards and discussion groups but no one has a sure fix. Why is Apple not tending to this problem? They of all groups should know the importance of how something looks.

I had the the same problem albeit with an m4v (same hardware and OS rev too!, iTunes 10.6.3). I was able to add the movie to a new library per Limnos' suggestion here, indicating that iTunes wasn't totally busted. However, I was also able to see the movie in the Recently Added smart playlist (another hat tip to Limnos), although it still did not appear in the Movies section of my iTunes library. (It was also in the iTunes Library.xml file.)
So I called AppleCare, and they directed me to move the file from the external drive where it was living, into the /Users/<Your Name Here>/Movies directory, and to "Add to Library" (Command-O) from that location. Sure enough (and much to my surprise), it showed up immediately (duplicated, actually) in the Movies section of my iTunes library. Subsequent additions to my Library have not misbehaved similiarly.

Trouble importing contacts from a tab-delimited file into Contacts on 10.9.5

I am having Trouble importing contacts from a tab-delimited file into Contacts on MacBook Pro, OS 10.9.5, Intel 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo., 400GB drive, 4GB memory DDR3
So far I have:
- Followed closely the help screen in Contacts app
- Modified my source document meticulously - first in MS Word, then copied and tweaked in Apple's "Text Edit" app
- The problem arises when I go to access the document for import. Specifically, the target document, and all others in that file, are "greyed out" and thus can't be "opened" to facilitate the import process
- Tried changing the extension of the document name to ".txt", ".rtf", and ".rtd". No change or improvement.
- Searched Apple.com/help and found nothing relevant
Can anyone offer some advice or tell me what I may be overlooking in this process?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Hi Rammohan,
Thanks for the effort!
But I don't need to use GUI upload because my functionality does not require to fetch data from presentation server.
Moreover, the split command advised by you contains separate fields...f1, f2, f3... and I cannot use it because I have 164 fields. I will have to split into 164 fields and assign the values back to 164 fields in the work area/header line.
Moreover I have about 10 such work areas. so the effort would be ten times the above effort! I want to avoid this! Please help!
I would be very grateful if you could provide an alternative solution.
Thanks once again,
Best Regards,

Trouble Importing Files PSE 7 to Windows 7 (32 bit)

I am attempting to install PSE 7 into a computer running Windows 7, 32 bit.
The installation was a success to the extent that I was able to connect a catalog containing a huge amount of photos, (180,000 +) to the organizer, and after several hours of "generating thumbnails" the installation seemed to have stabilized.
However, when I try to import new photos, the "get photos from files and folders" operation takes ridiculous amounts of time, and is sort of "hit or miss" in that it sometimes it hangs altogether and I have to use "task manager" to shut down PSE.
Other than this, the program seems to be working normally (!) or maybe (?)
I have tried various compatibility modes, (XP SP2, Vista, Vista SP 1 & 2) with very little difference in results. Well, maybe Vista SP 2 was a tiny bit better.
The computer this is installed in is a Pentium C2D 2.8Ghz (E6300) w/ 2 GB of DDR2 800Mhz RAM. So, it's got plenty of "juice" to deal with PSE's requirements.
My photo files are stored in folders & sub-folders on a separate internal HDD (750GB WD).
Both PSE 5 and 7 work on 3 other computers containing the identical catalogs and photos, in basically the same configuration, including separate storage drives for each. These machines are running Windows XP SPs 2 or 3 (I use multiple computers as a back up strategy, copying the entire existing HDD to another, then install the drive into another machine, import the catalog file into PSE, and change the HDD letter to match that of the existing catalog). Done this way, the PSE installation is identical to that in the previous machine, and is up and running rapidly.
launching such a large catalog takes a bit of time to initialize, or search (understandably), but on these other machines there is no trouble importing, locating, or managing files.
I should add that on the Windows 7 machine, Windows Explorer works quite well in accessing all of the photo files, so this sort of rules out a problematic Hard drive.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Mr. Ellis, PSE 7 is simply not permitting me to drag folders from Windows Explorer into the organizer. It just blows up the dreaded "black circle with diagonal slash", and that's the end of the issue, at least as far as PSE 7 is concerned.
Since I've had to terminate this program abnormally several times, it resets the preferences upon restart. The other day it hung when I was trying to set preferences, so as you might expect, I'm very cautious about making changes. I don't know if changing any preferences would enable drag and drop, I'm just trying to illuminate the eggshells I'm walking in trying to stabilize the program.
In answer to your question, about the "documents and settings folder", no, I'm not using in any of my photo file paths. I realize I may have confused the issue with that statement, it was out of context. But my purpose in doing so was to obviate the differences in file paths that PSE is expecting, and the file paths that I'm using. Perhaps that was a bad example.
I almost never use either the "My Documents" or the My Pictures" folders in Windows, nor do I allow PSE to use them. Storing data of any kind on the OS drive (C:/) is not in my repertoire of "stupid things I like to do, even if they're destined to end badly".
All of my computers have a minimum of 2 physical HDDs, not partitions. All video, music, photos, program installer files, etc. are stored on a discreet, separate, HDDs, (identified in "My Computer" as, (IE) " G: Volume")). The "C:/" drives are exclusively for Windows and installed programs.
That said, a typical file path to a group of photos in my computer would be, "My Computer" > "G:/ Volume" > "My Digital Photos" > "Airshows" > "McGuire AFB 2007" (In case you're wondering, I'm way too lazy to go through that each time, so I add desktop shortcuts to the extra HDDs and even the largest folders).
As you are well aware, that is completely different from the file path that PSE would choose by default. A file path for which I have a great deal of disdain. But, that is another complicated and contentious issue, which doesn't have a clear winner thus far.
Anyhoo, I think that PSE would "appear" more compatible (and probably is )with Windows 7 if it were allowed to follow it's own choices as to where to store the photo files. One supposes the folders that Windows 7 "creates" for earlier programs further aids (supposed) compatibility.
As I mentioned in one of my other somewhat long winded posts, I now have a viable option for importing photos, "find photos by searching", the manual drill down modus operandi. Works great!
I'm not expecting this installation of PSE to do any, "heavy lifting" with respect to editing, or a resting place for un-backed up photos . It's in a new machine I just built for the primary purpose of, extra backup, recording TV, and perhaps installing a Bluray drive. The motherboard has HDMI output, so it plugs into the TV directly, and the PSE slideshow function works perfectly. With a 40" TV, it's even better than a slide projector for boring relatives with vacation photos!
So, although this thread is still marked as "unanswered", I do have a workaround solution. There should be a check box indicating, "it won't ever be answered until Adobe issues a patch"! (Like that's going to happen).
Again Mr. Ellis, thank you very much for your interest in this issue. I might add that I have read your page on problems with PSE and it's obvious that you have applied a great deal of thought, effort, experience, and industry toward helping people deal with PSE more effectively.
As an afterthought I have several copies of PSE laying around, 2,3,5, & 7, (some in multiples) and I've never had a serious problem with any of them. So I'm actually astounded when I see the litany of issues that apparently manifest themselves. This is my first actual issue, and Windows 7 is pretty upfront about PSE 7 being an incompatible application.

Problem changing art work

I have been to the link posted here . clicked on the tune gone to edit and get info go to artwork.
Iv imported deleted dragged and added art work. It stays in the Bottom left of the window but the art work by the tune changes to something els or stays the same . Giving an EG put in AC DC and it show up Buork or something other then.
And the art work does is the same in cover flow. How to fix this?

Same here: since upgrading to 8.1, all albums containing multiple cover art, show anything but the frontcover. It's not always the last one being shown: when you've imported more than two, it could be one in the middle as well. I've noticed when you flip through the art and put it on the first (front cover), then go to another song, and then return to the first one, it seems to have fixed the problem. But when you check it a little later, it has the same bug again.
I'm wondering if it has anything to do with an issue that I'm having already for a long time: Usually I add the art this way: I select all songs of an album, press CMD+I (Get Info), and then I drag the pics in the artwork square. Here you should first add the last one, and then the rest in the right order, if you want them to appear in the right order. So if you have 5 pics, then you first drag 5 and then 1-2-3-4 into the Info window. I've always done it like that, and I've been wondering for a long time now why it works like this, never really found an answer.
Could it be that they fixed this weird importing order issue now, but that it now affects all albums with art imported that way ? Just an idea...
Anyone else having these problem too?

I-tunes wont automatically find any Song titles, or art work.

Not sure if anyone can help, but we have 2 i-tunes libary's on our computer. Mine works fine, the itunes libary, will import the CD, and find the song names and the art work all automatically on my libary, but when my husband then switches to his libary, the libary will not automatically find art work or song names. If he presses get song names it does then find them, but it still wont find artwork at all, we have checked the settings on both systems and it seems to be exactly the same? any ideas???
Thanks!

Is his library connected to the internet or the itunes store? And are you working on the same computer?

Trouble importing font

Hi. Having trouble importing a font -- universe to be specific. I brought it into Font Book and it's working in Pages. But when I select it in Final Cut, I get a bold, italicized text. It doesn't change -- it's bold and italicized -- no matter what style I choose (plain/bold/italic/bold-italic).
Any ideas on how to fix this?

False alarm -- the font works fine in the video panel of the viewer. It's only slanted and bold in the control panel.
Thanks for the help.

Fitting Art Work to Art Board in AI

Does anyone know if this is possible? Please note - I do not need advice the other way 'round (i.e. fit Art board to art work) - as I want the art board to remain static in this case.
Many thanks in advance.

Thanks Brij011
I thought that there was a way to do this. However, it would be neat to be able to upload correct Art Work for album covers so that other could share instead of having to scan / take picture and then import. I guess Apple would be inodated with incorrect pictures if we could upload to them.
Oh well... thanks again !

Presenter 10 - trouble importing movie

Anyone else have trouble importing a movie file using Presenter? I know that movie files need to be inserted via the Presenter tab right?
I've tried both an .avi and .mov file and get an error "There was an error encoding the file".
Thanks for the help.

Do you have another program that can encode the videos to FLV or MP4 before you bring them into Presenter? I've never found the conversion tool in Presenter terribly useful. Maybe it is the loss of control, but I prefer to have more options than Low, Medium and High when converting my videos.
If the videos are converted elsewhere, then it will remove the converter in Presenter from the process, and should work around this problem.

Stop Automatic Art Work Downloading

When I upgraded to 7, iTunes asked if I wasnted it to automatically download art work for my songs to which I said yes. I thought it was only going to be a one time thing...but it wasn't. Everytime I imported a new song it rescans all of my music files (7000+ files to be exact) and wastes some of my processing power doing it.
I can't find an option to tell it not to do it anymore. So far I've been just hitting the stop button everytime it starts to look for art work. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program, but that didn't work becaue the options it asked me weren't present anymore almost like my computer just automatically remembered what I wanted.
How do I get it to stop?
**Note: I don't have an iTunes Store account.**
Custom Windows XP

Bmoner,
Sounds like that is the scanning for gapless playback, not attempting to download album artwork. You have to have a iTunes Store account in order to download album artwork.
Once it has completed through completely, without being stopped, it should not scan on subsequent launches of iTunes.
