Trouble saving images when viewing directly

I've noticed recently that, when trying to save an image I am looking at after using "View Image," what tends to happen is that the download "starts," but no progress is made and the image won't be downloaded unless I were to close Firefox and restart it, at which point the image would then download and be saved to my computer.
Canceling the download does not work-that is, it can be canceled, but Firefox will still think it is downloading, as indicated by the prompt that appears if I attempt to close Firefox in this fashion.
I thought this was limited to Tumblr, but it seems to happen on other sites such as Pixiv and typically when I choose to view the image directly and then attempt to save it-saving an image loaded onto an existing page produces no problems, it seems. This does not affect all such images, however, but I am unsure what the criteria are for reproducing this.
Another issue related to this is that sometimes, if I restart Firefox to download any images I "queue" in this manner, they end up producing 162-byte image files that Windows Image Viewer naturally can't quite read.

I do not have any plugins or anything for saving images outside of Firefox's native "Save Image As" feature.
As for those articles:
* Download history size doesn't seem to matter
* The folders should be fine, no need to switch to a different folder
*Don't think I should try a reset just yet...
*Changing file type settings might work, but I think that's only for if I'm downloading an image from, say, a link versus the Save-As I tend to use.
*As mentioned above, no plugins are being used to my knowledge
*Haven't checked my anti-virus, but I doubt that's the issue
I think my problem seems to be highly unique.

  • Trouble saving images on cRIO-9022

    I'm having trouble saving images on my RT target cRIO-9022 (VxWorks). I get "error 53 occurred at Write GIF File.vi LabView: Manager call not supported" when running the code. What I'm trying to do is save periodic snapshots of front panel charts/graphs locally on the cRIO and download them at a later time.
    I've also tried some of the report generation VIs and had broken arrows and compile errors. from what I've read in help and online, It seems perhaps it is not possible to do what I'm trying to do with my particular target. Is there any reason that I shouln't be able to save images locally to the RT target? has anyone else had a similar problem generating reports or saving images on the cRIO-9022?
    Thanks for any help you can provide,
    truth204

    I've run into similar problem before... I was unable, at the time, to find a good workaround for saving front panel images to file on RT because the necessary report generation functions were unsupported on the RT environment. If you are just saving data from charts and graphs, you might want to consider saving the data as a binary file or a spreadsheet/.csv style file. This is ultimately what I did in my RT application, and then I created a separate desktop application that would read the data from those exported files and reproduce the charts/graphs that were created on the RT target.
    Here is a KB describing your error, for reference: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/39B5B135F32902388625723B00683B27

  • Loading images twice when viewing directly

    When I view an image directly (direct url of image) and reload the image I notice my logs show that the image was loaded twice for each time the image was refreshed. The timestamps in the logs are exactly the same. If I close Firefox and leave the image as the last page viewed then restart firefox it only loads the image once. When I hit refresh it loads the image two more times (total of three times).
    I tried in safe mode with same result.
    I tried with firebug watching net activity and it DOES NOT happen. When it's NOT watching net activity it continues to happen.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Just noticed it

    I do not have any plugins or anything for saving images outside of Firefox's native "Save Image As" feature.

  • No thumbnail images when viewing pictures folder via desktop & screensaver

    When I go into system preferences and then Desktop & Screensaver I chose the pictures folder. It does not show any thumbnail images of any of the contents of my Pictures Folder, yet clicking on a blank area of space applies a desktop???? I have never seen this before anyone have any ideas?

    There may be some minor issue or glitch in the system; and perhaps even
    starting up in SafeBoot and using Disk Utility's repair disk permissions, then
    quitting the utility, and restarting normally may help repair this situation.
    Some file types, in some cases, may not appear in icon or thumbnail view;
    and there are a few image editor applications whose custom icon thumb-
    nail views actually appear as a generic icon w/o an image; but an original
    import from a camera will have the correct thumbnail captured by Finder
    and/or Preview (or iPhoto) by first-contact with the image from the camera;
    but Photoshop or other third party shareware or freeware may not show one.
    For a normal situation where a thumbnail image icon should be present:
    Open up a finder window and do like this: from Finder=View=Show View Options
    =Show Icon Preview. That will give you a thumbnail view of whatever document it is.
    You can select to do this setting for all windows
    Apparently your situation is different in that there may be a permissions or other
    issue going on in the system; so try routine maintenance and also see if the images
    are in the correct location for the system to see them. If the system is really messed
    you may have to consider repairing it; try booting from the native disk utility in OS X
    boot/installer disc, repair disk and repair disk permissions; then reboot using Startup
    Disk in the boot disc's utilities menu (in installer menubar) and immediately press &
    hold the Shift key on startup to engage SafeBoot; and re-repair disk permissions
    from the System's hard drive located Disk Utility to re-correct these permissions, as
    they will probably not be proper for the fully updated system running in the computer.
    Then restart normally.
    There may be file damage, so if that is discovered through additional troubleshooting,
    you may have to consider a new system folder, as in "Archive & Install" then update.
    Repair disk permissions between all update & install steps of system and other software.
    If you have and use a utility interface tool such as OnyX (runs free, is donationware) from
    Titanium Software, download from their site; and run all the checkbox items in Automation,
    and then restart the computer - or set its preferences to do that also, automatically - this
    may help general system health. It may not be able to fix something deeper in the system;
    but a third party disk utility such as DiskWarrior or Drive Genius2 may help in other matters.
    In some cases, depending on what images are involved and where they came from, be
    they a chosen set of personal images you've directed the system to use as background
    desktop images in Finder, or a set of Apple-supplied images, the results can be different.
    I use a folder of camera created scenics as desktop backgrounds and use ToyViewer to
    edit and rotate at a most basic level, since I try to make photos in the camera and not edit.
    Sometimes, these will have generic non-image icons and not thumbnails; there is a way
    to work around the issue should a whole folder of them go bad or change over w/o notice.
    Hopefully someone who has fixed this problem will write a follow up; it is getting late in my
    timezone and I am running on empty per this topic, among others... You may resort to an
    Apple help or Apple Support documents search for a matching topic. That's a huge library.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Highly pixelated image when viewing at 100%

    Dear Forum:
    I'm using Aperture 3.0.1 on a MacBook Pro 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3. Using Mac OS 10.6.2.
    I'm making a photobook, extra large size. I placed an image in a photo box that covers the entire page (in other words, the photo has no borders) When I look at it in 100% view. The image is startlingly pixellated as if it's a low res image (The image is not a super-cropped image of the original) Will the book print out that way or is it okay for the image to look low res when making the book?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Dear Thomas,
    I don't see the yellow triangle on the image which is good. But the image is nevertheless low res when viewed at 100%. If I move the image in one or two directions, the image clears up and becomes sharp as it should be. But, when I come back to image after working on another page, and do 100%, the image is once again low res. I'm wondering if this is just a preview issue or if it will actually affect the PDF file that will eventually by generated for printing.
    Thanks,
    Steve

  • Why won't FCP X burn the menu background image when sharing directly to DVD?

    At one point recently I was able to drop in a jpg file so that FCP X would display this image in the menu background when a disc is burned directly out of FCP X when sharing directly to DVD. It worked at first, and then I decided I needed a higher quality image, but this one won't burn. My DVD now just has a black menu background. I can't figure out why this is happening. Please help! I'm using a late 2008 MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz 15" with OS 10.8.4. FCP X is up to date as well. My harddrive is fairly full in case that might cause some errors. Are there any specs on what type and size an image FCP wants for this function? Thanks for any help!
    Gregg

    Thank you, reducing the image size worked! I had used a low res file before, and with success decided to increase the resolution/size, and then it didn't work. the image did appear in small preview in the export panel, but wouldn't burn when all was said and done. the dimensions you gave worked fine. unfortunately, it makes the image a little bit fuzzy, but i dont think i can do anything about this. at least it burned it in there. thanks!

  • Im having trouble saving images from photoshop to my samsung tablet any ideas

    im having trouble saving photoshopped imsges onto my samsung tablet any ideas ?

    I have no knowledge of the Android OS.  I do have an iPod and its OS iOS is not really comparable my Windows  OS.  The iPod does mount as a dive on windows and the iPod camera roll is accessible. The jpes images can be copied to my pc.  However the PC does not have access to the iOS file system even apple user don't have real access the iOS file system.   Image need to be synced between the iPod and PC through iTunes sync.  Itunes messes with your PC images and creates some sort of image database and syncs that database between PC and Apple mobile devices.  There are also apps that help you share file between PC and Apple mobile devices.  I have no idea how files are shared between PC Operating Systems platform versions and Android OS versions.  Photoshop may not be able to save to Android files system.  Photoshop Can not save to Apple mobile devices. Photoshop may be able to save to Apple's Mac unix file system through some form of network share.
    How does one share files between Android devices and PC OS devices?

  • Why am I having trouble saving images consistently with Photoshop 5

    I have been trying to save images from one file to a final modified one.  Two problems:  1) Some images are unedited and save sometimes but not always.  Why?    2) Some are a combination of an original plus a transformed close-up from another image.  When the finished edited image saves, it is much smaller than the few unedited images that did successfully save.  Why?
    The images are digital photos of my jewelry.  In order to decrease the number of pages on my impending website, I am attempting to transfer, when one is available, a resized close-up to the other shot of  the full set (close-ups are what sell the work!).  Some of the images show 25% on the top bar but that doesn't seem to make a difference as to whether it will save or not.  Others (I notice they seem to be more horizontal images) are 16.7% ?  Does anyone still use Photoshop 5 or is this a fix that is so basic, it is the same for newer editions???  Anyone?
    Also, while we are on this page:  I tried to upload example images to illustrate what I am trying to do but kept getting an error message.  Any advise?

    For web use the resolution of the file has no meaning only the pixel dimensions.
    It depends on the site your uploading to, some have specific sizes for the photos (pixel dimensions) that is usually listed somewhere on the site, but to give you a rough idea, the size might say something like no bigger than 800x600.
    That would mean 800 pixels x 600 pixels (resolution doesn't matter) and the usual file type is jpeg. The 800 is for the long side of the photo.
    To see the pixel dimensions of a particular file, go to Image>Image Size and i agree with the others on the % being the viewing (zoom) percentage of the image on the screen and doesn't mean anything as far as saving files. 100% is actual pixels.
    If you double click on the zoom tool in the toolbox that % should change to 100% (actual pixels) In the photoshop 5 help, look under Looking at the Work Area-Viewing Images.
    Do any of the files your saving have layers (more layers than just the Background layer)?

  • Reduced images when viewing a forum with safari

    Hello all,
    I was trying to view an image that had been posted on a forum that I am subscribed to, using safari on my iPhone. I know that the image is 800x600 because I saw it full size with my office computer BUT when I try to view the same image on the same forum it only shows a tiny little image that fill a tenth of the screen even if I zoom in.
    Is there something that prevents safari on iPhone to display the image in full size? Maybe a setting that needs to be turn on/off?
    Thank you

    Thanks but it did not open in a new window. It's directly inside the forum posts.
    I would have noticed if it was a new window.
    Funny thing is that I see the image in full size when the page first loads up then it shrinks to a pityful size which, BTW, is not a clickable thumbnail.

Review the image copy steps to make sure you copied the images to your /i/ folder c:\apex\images as Varad suggested - on the other hand, when I forgot to do that in 3.2 Apex did not work at all due to .css files it needed not being there.

  • Problems with dark Artifacts on images when viewed on PC screens???

    I have a very urgent problem concerning Adobe Photoshop CS3, my Apple Cinema 20 inch Display and my SpyderPro2 on my Mac Pro Intel Dual Core Xeon 2x 2.66GHz.
    I have been using the Spyder for some years now, but recently I have been having big problems with the results. I only use Photoshop CS3 to enhance digital products images.
    I have a major contract with a jewellery company in London, where I clean up digital photos. Images that I have lightened up to look great on my Cinema Display have been reported by my client to look pretty dark on their PC's in their offices.
    Some of these images show lines and grubby patches??? To check this I opened files in Photoshop and moved the levels 'black' slider down quite some way, and did see evidence of what the client could see at their end? It seems that when I have used a faded eraser brush it leaves a light patch in between the shadows of the jewellery. This shouldn't be visible to the naked eye though?
    I must point out that when I use the eyedropper tool on images, to read the amount of grey or colour in the white areas around the peices, I am shown values of 1,2 or 4 maximum in the CMYK values. 4 percent out of 100 is nothing and should not be visible to the naked eye?
    How is it that my clients PC's can see dark shadows and where my eraser brush has rubbed out???
    I have tried many re-calibrations and also tested all of my older calibrations dating back a few years. I have also tested the same faulty images on Intel iMac's, an eMac, and a few PC's. On the iMac's I can just about make out the artefacts that my client can see, but nothing that I would deem as unacceptable.
    I am at a loss as to the fault, but It may be the Spyder2 Pro's inability to calibrate my Apple Cinema display properly? I may lose my contract which I cannot afford to do, and I simply have to find the cause ASAP.
    I have my Mac's in my office apartment next to two bay windows. I have vertical blinds there. When calibrating I have always turned off all the lights and pulled the blinds right back so that only the light from the two large window doors is coming in.
    For graphic design the calibrations seemed to be okay for quite some time, but recently it is getting harder to achieve good results with the Spyder? This could affect all of my workflow which is very serious. But I must stress that overall the Spyder results are not terrible. I can see good colours and dark levels and in general across all of my calibrated profiles, the jewellery looks acceptable on my Cinema Display?
    I did say to my clients that they should calibrate their PC screen properly but their offices have many Screens and they all show the same artefacts (some much worse than others)? I know that PC Screens are darker than Mac's but a 4% grey should not be visible????
    As these are a web company the images will be seen by PC users around the world and most of these will have no calibration on their screens. What can be done to prevent this and what is the cause of this? I can't possible please everyone, but as a creative professional I have to be 100% certain that my workflow is at its best.
    I need urgent help to solve this or loose valuable business? I hope that you are able to help solve this mystery. Could this possibly be something with Photoshop?
    I have just purchased the new Spyder3 Pro which I hope will give perfect results but I have to find out what the cause of this is. If some of the fault lies with the client, I can charge these for all the testing and calibrating I have done.
    Kind regards,
    Jason Conway

    Thanks for all your comments and so quickly.
    To be clearer, I am not working in CMYK for image enhancing at all, but windows RGB in photoshop, which is darker than working CMYK or Monitor RGB. I just use the CMYK colour scale in the photoshop colour picker window to see what values are around the object.
    its not 4 across all four but on average C4, M2, Y1, K0.
    When saving in save for web the images look fine on my screen, pretty much the same as the photoshop tiff file.
    Each image has adobe RGB 1998 embedded when saved as a tiff file.
    The client looks on internet explorer 7 on their PC's and also within Photoshop.
    Colour settings within photoshop are using MacUser magazine's recommended setting from 2006: RGB: Adobe RGB 1998, CMYK: Euroscale Coated V2, Grey: Generic Grey, SPOT: 20% dot gain. Engine: Apple CMM, Intent: Relative Colorimetric. Also Black point compensation and User Dither are checked.
    Also the monitor calibration is set at 6500 at 2.2 gamma.
    To be clearer about the dark shadowing and the artefacts. When using levels I click on a shadow point to remove all but a slight shadow. Then I sometimes need to use the faded eraser to clean up or lessen the shadow. The image looks fine on my screen, but in the levels window I drag the black pointer about a third of the was across the screen to simulate what the client is seeing on their screen. This is quite a long way to drag the slider. I can sometime see the edges of the image, or white holes where the eraser has been. The lines are areas around the object that have been rubbed out a bit.
    I agree that colour values will show on a screen, but the effect of the shadow should be smooth and not clearly visible with an edge?
    http://www.ideo-sync.co.uk/p110741.jpg
    also p110741.tif
    I have uploaded the layered tiff file and the web jpeg to my server, so you can hopefully see something odd?
    If there is a problem with my cinema display at least its under warranty, and the new Spyder3 pro should help when it arrives in a few days time.
    Hopefully I can pinpoint the exact cause to this and take steps to stop this ever happening again. I am very grateful for your advice and help.
    Kind regards,
    Jason.

  • Trouble saving images from safari

    I'm running into a strange issue and wondering what's going on. Sometimes (not every time) when I save a jpg from safari, it will show up in my saved photos but it will be blank, all grey with a camera icon and jpg under it. Then, any time I save a photo after that it doesn't show up.
    Deleting the blank photo and saving it again works, but this is a hassle as I never know WHEN the error will happen and would rather not check after every photo to see if it occured.
    Any ideas why this is happening? It's not the image itself since if I try again after deleting it, it will save properly.

    I'm having this issue and have a detailed post about it as my first post on this forum.    Good luck.  I really hope someone can help us out with this...

  • Difference in images when viewed in CS5 and CC

    When I view the an image in CC, there is considerably more noise in the image than when it is viewed in CS5. Being viewed on the same PC.

  • Trouble saving image from CCD

    I have an Andor Newton EMCCD Camera which I am interfacing with Labview 8. I have modified a VI supplied by Andor for capturing cooling the camera and capturing data. The data returns from the Acquisition vi as a 1D array. It is reshaped into a 2D array and then viewed on an intensity graph that is 1024 x 256 (the number of pixels on the camera). This works fine- the image is shown as blue and black in the intensity graph (although greyscale would be preferred). If I try to flatten pixmap and save the image as a jpeg, the image looks different. It seems to have lost detail, even if I turn it into a 24 bit pixmap.
    Below is an image that I got using Andor's software. You can see two emission lines showing as bright regions across a grey background. The same image is shown as blue and black on the Labview output, and the bright lines are very hard to distinguish.
    I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. How do I take data acquired from the CCD and output it as a jpg? Why does it look great as an intensity map but it doesn't work in jpg format?
    If you want me to post the vi, just let me know.
    -Tim
    ANDOR Image (desired):
    LABVIEW image (want it to look like Andor image):

    It's probably a bug somewhere with your VI. So we'll need to see that (with a sample array of the data, that works in the intensisty chart but not saved).
    You can post attachments and link to them to add pictures. Like so (your image host doesn't like hot linking).
