Unable to rotate downloaded photos- missing file properties

I copied/pasted my photos from Windows Explorer. I tried rotating the pictures to the correct position, however it throws an error indicating that the picture contains missing file properties. Has anyone encountered the same thing? How can you fix it?
BTW, Using iphone 4S with iOS 5. Never had any issues with my 3GS.

Well that message is a Finder error.
As to the iPhoto problem:
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 check and repair library permissions.

TS3195 Unable To Rotate My Photos.

I am not able to rotate my pictures when I import them to my PC. Whenever i try to rotate,it says, "Windows can't save this file because there is a problem with picture's file properties.Please help me on this. I am currently using Iphone 4S
Thanks.

I am using Windows Photo Viewer. But it is not able to rotate it. I think i should try to do it by using some other program.
BTW thanks
Yeah, By mistake i posted it in the Ipod forum.

Adobe Bridge CS 4 missing file properties

I'm working with photoshop files (CS 4) and a few seem to have dropped some of the metadata from the file properties in the bridge browser. Dimensions, Resolution, Bit depth, and Color Mode are missing, and the Color Space is listed as Untagged, even though it is in fact tagged as Adobe 1998 in the Photoshop file. It's as if I inadvertently hit it a quick key to dump the information, as it has only occurred on a couple of files. The thumbnail appears smaller too. Any ideas?

I tried all of the above to no avail. I saved a copy in another folder and the file still had the diminished thumbnail and missing data. I added another layer (the files contain many layers and adjustment layers) to the file, cropped and re-saved and it picked up the missing data on the new version. I made some benign changes on my original, but alas it didn't work.
When I get a chance I'll do some more testing on this. It may have something to do with I import certain layers. I have been flowing layers in from both Aperture and Bridge, and from the latter, sometimes as smart objects. So maybe there is something going on there.
Except for this minor glitch, and some more serious PS stability issues, I am preferring the Bridge/Photoshop workflow to the Aperture/Photoshop workflow, and I'm thinking of jettisoning Aperture altogether in favor of the "browser" method of managing files.
I appreciate all the suggestions and will get back to this problem soon. But for know I have to meet a deadline.

Hi Kerstin,
the note also says: "This restriction is no longer valid".
With SP19 I do run tests continously that test content up to 2GB.
Amit: What portal version are you running? What repository implementation is the file stored in? If the file is stored in a file system, what is it's file size limitation?

Linux .tar.gz download is missing files

Hello,
The .tar.gz installation archive download is either missing files or the installation instructions need to be corrected. When untarred, only the file "libflashplayer.so" is unpacked. Per the installation instructions, "a directory called install_flash_player_10_linux will be created" and it should contain a file "flashplayer-installer":
~/downloads$ tar -tf install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz
libflashplayer.so
~/downloads$
I've downloaded it 3 times, so I doubt this is an instance of random corruption. Also, if libflashplayer.so is placed in the Firefox plugins directory, it causes Firefox to segfault upon loading any Flash-using web page. Investigating with strace leads me to believe this is due to missing libraries (which, I'm guessing, should be installed by the nonexistent flashplayer-installer script).
Am I missing something obvious here?

I was able to get Flash working by installing libCURL and manually installing libflashplayer.so. I would like to point out that the libCURL dependency is not mentioned in the installation instructions anywhere. Maybe the non-existant installer program is supposed to notify you if you are missing dependencies?
Either way, something is broken.

Unable to view downloaded photos

why can I not open photos downloaded from Ipad and iphone to Iphoto library? When I try to open the file directly it tells me "You do not have permission to open the documet"

Well that message is a Finder error.

How to download photos to file folders and not iPhotos?

I want to keep my photos in my own photo folders, do I use Image Capture for that? I notice that iPhoto only keeps photos in iPhoto Library if I download with iPhoto.

Yes, use Image capture for that.
Mind you, iPhoto is much, much more flexible for organising your photos that folders full of files.
Are you concerned about accessing the files?
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 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.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* 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.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Satellite L850-1HP unable to configure downloaded Windows Update files

My laptop had issues from day one which were first the CD-ROM not opening, then the webcam and microphone turning off forever and not being able to be turned on again ever, and last but not least, this summer, my laptop would not connect to any WIFI network at all, it wouldn't even find one.
I went to the place where I bought it for support, they sent it for repairs, a week later, I get it back, it's been restored back to factory settings, everything seemed fine, CD ROM functional.. webcam and microphone too.
So I thought I'd check around and start tyding things up to my liking, then I realise that I need to download some updates from Windows Update, so I do, about 100+ updates needed, I start downloading them, but they don't download up until the 20th minute that it's stuck at 0%, which seemed shifty to me, because then it just jumped up to like 10% and progressed forward.
After downloading the updates, or so it said that it had, I restart the laptop in order to get them working and configured properly.
It didn't. After I clicked restart, it started shutting down, saying that it's configuring and at about 20-30% it rebooted, then it loaded up the same screen saying that it's configuring updates, then it says it failed and says that it's restoring data back to normal, which it never freaking does.
After about two hours of waiting for it to do anything at all, I reboot the PC, same stuff.
Reboot again but this time I restore things to factory settings once more, takes me about 1hr again with a complete wipe of data (of course the OS stays and toshiba apps too), set everything up, name and stuff, accept terms and conditions, blah blah, OS starts up, I check everything and restart.
After the restart, I decide to not configure anything until I've downloaded all the windows updates, so I do just that, BUT, I get the same error again, shifty-slow download of updates, restart and get the same message that it cannot configure updates, and the forever-long wait for the laptop to "restore" data back to normal, which it hasn't done, again.
I'm completely clueless as to what I should do, I've restored factory settings once more but this time I'll just wait for some feedback or try to do whatever I find on these forums that is useful.
Please help.

Hi
The Satellite L850-1HP was preinstalled with Win 8 64bit.
Do you have problems installing the Win 8 updates?
Usually you will get an error message if an update has failed.
Could you post this error message?

How can I quit my iPhoto screen that as crashed and locked on. The locked screen has no iPhoto file list on the left and the part of the screen that should have uploaded photos is blank except for the rotating download icon in the centre of screen. Help?I

My SD card reader has caused my iPhoto screen to be locked with no list of files on the lefthand side and a blank main photo area apart from the rotating download icon operating in the centre of the photo part of the screen.
I have tried to quit iphoto but when I restart it the same locked screen appears.
I believe I caused this problem when I removed my SD device without first ejecting it when the blank screen appeared without downloading my new photos.
Can anyone help a 66 year old computer illiterate fool ?.
Regards

Use Force Quit (under the Apple menu at the top) to close iPhoto. Then try opening it again. If it locks up again force quit and try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists.
If the problem does not persist try the following: make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If the problem persists in the test library do the following: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - 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 down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

Photos from iPhone 4S are unable to rotate after copied on PC...

If I try to rotate photos ported from my iPhone 4S onto my Win 7 64x laptop I am unable to rotate them.
This is the error message I receive:
"Windows Photo Viewer can't save the changes to this picture because there's a problem with the picture's file propertie."
Weird part is that some of them I am able to rotate using the same program (photos are in the same folder)
I am an admin on my computer, I have full rights on the folder I am copying the photos into.
I tried porting in the photos by simply Copy / Paste from the "Internal Storage" folder that opens up as soon as I connect the iPhone and by using the "Import Media" option that come up when iPhone is connected > no dice!
I tried opening the photos with Windows Photo Viewer, PictureViewer, Paint > no dice!
I have no problemas with the photos from iPhone 3GS or any other type of media, just with the iPhone 4S that is currently up to date.
Does anybody have a fix for this?

Just used SteelBytes software to resolve the issue of not being able to save rotated images in Windows (1500 x iPhone 4S pics took 3 seconds). The tiny (83kb) program just strips all non-essential metadata from images, so all you retain is the picture, picture properties and optionally the date/time taken. I can confirm this resolves all problems with rotating pics using Windows-based software without touching the actual photo in any way.
I used this to modify my working/viewing copy of the kids photos, as there are so many they are stored in folders by month/year, and Apple numbers the files in order for sorting purposes (but again, date/time taken can be retained if you like). That said, I have kept the original images as my backup copy as a fix will eventually be developed for this.
The free-ware from Steel Bytes has no advertising or malware onboard (as at today anyway). Link is at bottom, but just in case Apple Forums don't allow that - go to steelbytes.com > Freeware > Misc > JPEG & PNG Stripper > Download > English > USA (regardless of country) > Save As.. Then open your download folder and double click on the file (depends on what software you are running as to the next steps). Once installed and running (just a little command line window), grab a folder or file (IMPORTANT: Ensure the original files are saved/copied somewhere else) and drag it into the little window. That's it, the files have been changed and can now be edited.
Good Luck !

I downloaded some videos to Premier Elements 13 from external hard drive but now the external hard drive is damaged. I tried to open the videos on the organizer which it shows the video but with a yellow ? and says missing file. Is there anyway I can open

I downloaded some videos to Premier Elements 13 from an external hard drive but now the external hard drive is damaged. While setting up my new MAC the external hard drive was dropped and I have been told by an outside source they could not retrieve the files. It had 4 years of photos and videos on it. I remembered that I had downloaded some of the videos from the external hard drive (before it was broke) to Adobe Organizer 13 when I installed the Adobe 13 on my MACOS X 10.9.5. I tried to open the videos on the organizer which it shows the video but with a yellow ? and says missing file. Is there anyway I can open these videos?
Any input is greatly appreciated!! I am sick over losing the videos and had a little hope on Adobe Organizer until I was unable to open them. I am thinking it is due to my external hard drive not being plugged in. I thought when I transferred from the external hard drive to Adobe 13 that it would be there without the external hard drive needing to be attached but maybe I did something wrong.
Thanks again for any help!!!!

It had 4 years of photos and videos on it.
To what did your camera record those photos and videos - camera's internal memory, inserted memory card, other?
Any remote chance that the latter may still exist for you to use to download the camera files to your new external hard drive?

SINCE INSTALLING I.E. 11 IN WINDOWS 7, UNABLE TO DOWNLOAD OR SAVE FILES IN FIREFOX; HOW DO I CORRECT THIS PROBLEM?

This is what I wrote to the Microsoft Community seeking a correction of the issue (still no reply to my request for assistance with this matter from them):
Can I go back to I.E. 10? Ever since I installed version 11, I've had an unstable desktop. It appears to have damaged the Windows Explorer interface in other browsers, such that when I open the popup window to save downloads and/or other files, all that shows up in the window are the "Save" and "Cancel" buttons, but it does not show the interface to choose where to save the file(s), thus I cannot save anything at all in those other browsers. I primarily use Firefox, and every time I want to save a file, I have to startup I.E. 11 to save anything and everything.
I would much prefer going back to I.E. 10 which caused me no such problems; but, if I cannot go back to I.E. 10, how do I correct this issue so I can save files in other browsers? This situation has been going on for months now, and I've waited patiently thinking that there would be an update for Microsoft and/or Firefox (as well as Chrome and Safari) that would correct this problem by now; but, even though I have all of the latest updates and versions installed, no updates have corrected the issue at all. I would very much appreciate any help you can give.
Oh, also, I have tried uninstalling Firefox completely at least twice, and rebooting before reinstalling it to the latest version, but that has not corrected the problem either. I additionally tried turning I.E. 11 off in Windows, and then tried running Firefox to see if the download interface would be restored, but it still had the very same issue(s) [no ability to choose the place to save files, and thus being completely unable to save any downloads and/or other files]. I can't believe that this problem has been going on for so long now without any update(s) resolution.

The following is the latest that I've written to Microsoft about this entire matter:
You're still not getting it. I've never had a problem with downloading and/or saving files in I.E.; and I very clearly explained to you guys that the problem is in the other browsers, but it's caused by a malfunction in the Windows Desktop.
Why can't someone with English as their first language, please help me?
But, regardless, just in case your recommendation(s) had anything to do with anything, and were perhaps creating the problem in the other browser (though I was pretty sure that it had nothing to do with my problem), I made I.E. the default browser; yet, of course, that did NOT correct the problem. Also, when I set I.E. as the default browser, the explorer.exe file crashed and restarted.
Nevertheless, because I (wrongly) thought that I couldn't uninstall I.E. 11, because somehow I missed the listing for it in Windows Programs and Features, I went to the latter again and found I.E. 11 listed this time, and uninstalled it. After it completed, I rebooted the laptop. Then I went into Windows Update and looked for what version of I.E. it was then going to want me to update to since I.E. 11 was uninstalled.
I saw that I.E. was taken all the way back to I.E. 8 and had updates for it as well as to update to I.E. 9, so I did the former updates first, rebooted, then updated to I.E. 9 and rebooted again. Then I ran Windows Update again checking for new updates, and found that there was a cumulative security update for I.E. 9, which I installed and then rebooted once again.
Then, upon checking for new updates in Windows Update again, I found that the option(s) to update to I.E. 10 or 11 were now optional, which they weren't before, and then I updated to I.E. 10 and rebooted once more. Upon Windows restarting, I checked again for new Windows Updates and there were some security updates, so I installed them and restarted the laptop.
This time upon rebooting, I checked Windows Update for further new updates and there were none; so I'm now completely updated to I.E. 10; but, because going back to I.E. 10 corrected some of the instability with the Windows Desktop, I am ignoring the optional update to I.E. 11, and I am NOT going to update to it again.
Throughout the update process, upon restarting Windows, I kept starting Firefox to see if the "Save As" window then worked, but throughout the entire update process, as well as when I completed it, I still could not download or save files [because the window still doesn't show where to save the file(s)---please see the Print Screen copy of what it looks like, attached to this message (sorry, but I.E. won't let me browse for the file, and the tab or windows crashes and reloads every time when I click "Browse" to look for the file to attach)].
So, I decided to try uninstalling Firefox for the fourth time, rebooting and reinstalling it, hoping that might correct he issue this time since I downgraded to I.E. 10, but the "Save As" window still looks the same, and I am still completely unable to save any files or downloads while in Firefox.
Oh, I also tried resetting all of the Windows Folder Options again to default settings, and reset all of the folders, in case that had anything to do with the problem, but that still did NOT correct the issue either.
I am now going to try creating a new user account also with Administrator privileges, changing Users, trying to run Firefox in it, and see if the problem with the "Save As" window is still an issue....
In the new User profile, the situation is even worse. When I try to save any file(s) in Firefox, Firefox crashes (latest version).
I wrote to Firefox a couple of days ago, but an arrogant "techie" is giving me the run around and is not helping me, and no else is helping with the matter so far.
Postscript: Now Windows Explorer (the explorer.exe file) that runs the desktop crashed and restarted again twice while I was trying to print a file, and it appears that it won't let me print at all anymore.

HT4101 I have a NIKON COOLPIX P500 but am unable to download photos through the IPad camera connection kit. I have tried to use the Sandisk card also - no result. Any suggestions? The Ipad does not "see" the card or camera?

I have a Nikon Coolpix P500 but am unable to download photos from it to my iPad2 via the iPad Camera Connection kit. The iPad does not see either the Sandisk 8GB card or the Nikon camera. I have turned the camera on, but it seems that the camera just want to recharge its battery through the iPad as the iPad states that the devices draws too much power?? Anybodu solved this problem yet? Advise please?

One thing to check is the format that the camera is saving pics to the card in. Many are selectable and, in most cases, if PTP is one of the options then you need to have that one selected for the files to be visible to iOS and the CCK (connection kit).
Another thing which sometimes comes up, especially with older cameras and therefore probably not with yours, is the filenaming conventions used by the camera. iOS is quite strict about what it expects to see and if files are being stored with unsupported name formats then they simply won't be seen at all.

I am trying to download photos to mac from iphone 4s and keep getting message (unreadable files:315) which I say (OK). Then it throws me out of downloading. What can I do to get my photos downloaded to Mac?

Trying to download photos from iphone 4S to a MacBook Pro. The process keeps getting interrupted/stopped with a notice (unreadable files:315). When I click (OK), thinking it will download all other photos other than the 315, it stops downloading. I did this thru Image Capture and also Import Photos in iPhotos. Both did not work. What can I do?

Try:
- Try another cable.
- Try another USB port
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
If still problem then it appears the photo files on the iPod are corrupted or you have a hardware problem with the iPod
