Viewing photos from library?  Please Help...

I just bout a new black macbook and downloaded images from my camera to iPhoto. When I double click on a photo from my library, instead of an enlarged picture, I get a grey box with a question mark. I never had this problem on my PPC computer and I am wondering what I am doing wrong.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Eddy Sparks

If the  ➙ Force Quit method won't let you shutdown iPhoto try this command in the Terminal:
killall iPhoto
followed by the Return or Enter key
It might take more than one go for it to take.
Failing that close all other applications and hold the power button down until the computer shuts down.  Reboot and try iPhoto again.

    If you didn't import them to Photos or copy them to the hard drive there will be no way to recover them. 
    How did you view them?

  • Is there a way of viewing photos from a USB stick without adding them to my iPhoto Library

    Is there a way of viewing photos from a USB stick without adding them to my iPhoto Library? I am using OS Snow Leopard.

    Use the Preview application. If you have it in your dock you can drag a group of photos to the icon and they'll open with the first picture large and the rest as thumbnails to the side. Use the buttons at the top to go to the next picture and zoom in or out.

  • I have a new laptop and have installed itunes onto it, but i am worried if i plug my iphone into it i will loose all my contacts apps and photos!! please help!!!

    hi there
    i have just bought a new laptop and have installed itunes onto it but i am worried that if i plug my iphone into it, that i will loose all my apps, contacts and photos!!
    please help!!

    I will try and be helpful unlike the the first two posters!!
    When you say installed iTunes I am guessing that its just the program and not your old library? in which case when you connect your iphone you will get a message warning you that you will be replacing the data on the iphone with the library on the new laptop i.e. an empty itunes.
    If this is the case what you need to do is on your old laptop,
    1: open itunes and go into preference/settings and go to advanced and make sure that consolidate and keep         organised are checked. 
    2: Then go to file and click consolidate library.
    3: close itunes and then go to start and open "My Music" folder.
    4: Drag the iTunes folder out of My music and put it on an external drive or network the 2 laptops.
    5: on the new laptop open "My Music" folder and drag out to the desk top the itunes folder
    6: from the external drive or network drang and drop the old iTunes library into the "My Music" folder on the new    laptop.
    now close it and restart iTunes and your old library should be visable and when you connect your iphone it will identify its the correct library to sync with.

  • I accidentally removed iphoto from dock, please help?

    I accidentally removed iphoto from dock, please help?
    iPhoto isn't in my applications to I can't drag it to dock.  All images and movies are still on Mac (heart did stop as I thought I'd lost everything and nearly cried) but I don't know how to get iPhoto back.  I'm worried about trying different things as don't want to lose anything on Mac.  Noticed that I haven't been using Time Machine and bought a couple of years ago so not sure what operating with.  I have our 2 CDs from when we bought the Mac - 13-inch Macbook Pro (Mac OS X Install DVD) and 13 inch MacBook Pro (Applications Install DVD).  My photos are not backed up so not sure if I need to do this first - can I back up to iCLoud or do I need newer software?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated - need lots of step by step instructions though!

    All images and movies are still on Mac
    Of course they are.  Deleting an app doesn't delete the files that's in it.

    Can't view doc corrupted file .How to recover unsaved documents WORD? how to view corrupted word files, please help

    It could be Word or even Windows that is having the problem. Before you start trying to restore a backup or repair a file, try opening other documents.
    Try opening your "corrupt" document from another computer. Also you can try to make a copy of corrupted files. (It could work) : http://www.filerepairforum.com/forum/microsoft/microsoft-aa/word/968-i-would-be-grateful-for-any-help-to-repair-or-the-procedures-word-files

  • Cannot view photos from Zire 71 Handheld

    Hi,
    Newby here
    I'm having trouble with viewing photos from my handheld, the "Photo" option doesn't appear on Photo Desktop.
    The expansion card is empty (when viewing My Pictures on Windows).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Post relates to: Zire 71

    What version of Palm Desktop are you using?  Was it installed from the Installation CD that came with the device, or downloaded from Palm.com?
    If you're using the download, it often does not come with the Media/Photo conduits included.  Best bet is the version on the CD.

  • HT1414 I had a new phone and I clicked some pictures and then I restore my new phone with the old back up and I lost my new clicked photos...please help me how can I get back those photos?

    I had a new phone and I clicked some pictures and then I restore my new phone with the old back up and I lost my new clicked photos...please help me how can I get back those photos?

    You were already provided the answer. If you do not have a backup of the phone while the photos were on the phone, they are gone. When you restore your phone from an old backup, anything that has been saved to the phone since that backup is deleted. Sorry.

  • How do I time / date stamp photos from library

    How can I print photos from library with a time / date stamp to use for legal purposes? Please help

    All photos captured with the iPhone are date and time stamped, but not shown on the photo. Plus those metadata can be changed easily with modern photo editing software so it is not always admissible in court.
    To post those to the pictures, you need a 3rd party app for that. Try the free Exifwizard app.

    It sounds like it still has her information on it, so it might be efficient to navigate to Settings, then General, then Reset, then Erase All Content and Settings. You can then set up the phone again, using your information. This way the phone will be yours, officially, and her data and information will be removed.

  • HT4623 After i updated my iPhone i realized i do not have my camera anymore how to get it back? I also using a new notebook so I do not have a back up to transfer it from.  Please help

    After i updated my iPhone i realized i do not have my camera anymore how to get it back? I also using a new notebook so I do not have a back up to transfer it from.  Please help

    I'm assuming you mean you don't have your camera application (which is not saved on any backup anyway).
    One way to find it is to get to your home screen, swipe the screen from right to left, and type "Camera" in the search field.  Camera is a core Apple app and cannot be deleted, so it must be there somewhere.
    An alternate approach is to do Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout

  • Viewing photos from an SD card

    Is there a way to view photos from an SD card without actually importing them to iPad 4 (I'm low on available storage)?

    Not currently. Maybe Apple will change the iOS firmware to allow this.
