Why are imported images not visible any more in My Catalogue?

I am trying to find out if there are limitations in PSE's Organizer that make it pointless for people with large numbers of photos to bother buying PSE 12.
I imported 1050 JPEGs into My Catalog without problem using PSE 8 but all subsequent imported JPEGs show up as Thumbnails that are Opague with an Hourglass design on them. This makes organizing these images impossibly slow.  When I created a new catalog -- good advice from "andalebbfatima.1" --imported thumbnails were visible again.
But what to do about the 1050 images in the original catalog? I've got two thick "how-to" books and they say nothing about copying images from one catalog to another.
More important, to have confidence to buy PSE 12, I need to know what caused the 'invisible' thumbnails in the original catalog and is it something that could happen again after another two years of scanning, importing and trying to organize?

Glad you got it working.
For creating multiple catalogs from this original one, you can create copies of the original catalog. Check your catalog location using Help > System Info in Elements Organizer.
Now copy paste the catalog folder (i.e. the folder having same name as your catalog) in the same location. So now, you have say folders say- MyCatalog and MyCatalog-Copy.
You may open MyCatalog-Copy from Elements Organizer using File > Manage Catalog. Once this open, you can remove images from it so that only a selected set of images can be organized in this catalog. Now images get deleted from the hard disk in this process. Likewise, you can organize the original catalog.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

  • LR5- Map-Saved Locations-My Locations: The white circles showing the position of "my Locations" are not visible any more. What can I do?

    Hello,
    from one day to the next the white circles and the dot in the middle are gone. I could not find any setting for on/of. When I click on a location the map centers to the location.
    Maybe someone knows what to do.
    Thanks.

  • Why are my images not showing up?  Worked fine before yesterday...

    First, Happy Thanksgiving!
    I use iWeb for my photography business (www.rosiejohnsonphotogaphy.com). All has worked fine until yesterday. Now the images on my linked pages are not showing up. They are imported from iPhoto. Now one image is at the top (it is not imported from iPhoto) and at the bottom of the page is this "comments widget". I swear that I did nothing to my website yesterday - didn't even have iWeb open.
    Any ideas why this is happening??
    Thank you in advance!

    Wyodor,
    Thank you for taking a gander. I mistyped: www.rosiejohnsonphotography.com. Must have not had enough coffee at that point....
    So I checked my website from our other computer (not the one I use to update it) and all images loaded and looked fine. I then tried it from this computer (the only one used to update the website) and no pictures! Why is this?! I think it has something to do with this "comment widgets" statement at the bottom of each web page and the RSS box at the end of the web address bar. Any ideas how to fix this and get it back to where it was working would be appreciated!
    Thank you.

  • Any thoughts as to why iWeb software is not updated any more

    hello all,
    I'm wondering why apple is not updating iWeb software any more. Does anyone think they will continue to support it?  Doesn't make sense to me that they have abandoned it. With as much as we all use the web, you would think that Apple would want to have the best software out there for us to use with our iMacs,iPhones, and iPads. I can imagine iWeb software out there that would take our web sites built with state of the art web software that would format the sites we build to work and look the best on all the devices apple makes. Seems to me they are making a big mistake. what are your thoughts about why the have pretty much abandoned iWeb. I don't have a clue. Also seems like they are throwing a lot of people under the buss.
    thanks for your opinions
    donald

    It is now is apparent that iWeb, and iDVD, will no longer be supported by Apple since  new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.  iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features Unavailable When Publishing to a Non-Mac Server:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ RSS Feed Widget
    All of these issues can be replaced with 3rd party optionsl  There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and myself have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.

  • Why are shared files not visible when iPhone4S connected to iTunes?

    What makes this problem mysterious is that I have exactly the same settings on the same or eqivalent Apps on iPad2 and iTunes4S but when my iPhone is connected to my iTunes (running on my PC under Win7) it shows no files on Apps like Pages, iBooks, Keynote, and Print-n-share.  Each of these Apps has files and each shows files when  I connect my iPad2.   I cannot export or import filesto/from itunes and iphone because the list of files inside the Apps is not visible in itunes. 
    PS I CAN, btw, export and import files by using the amazing App and service "DropBox" which is the only route in and out of my iPhone (I am not ready to use iCloud).

    This is not a reply but an addition.  While searching for answers as to why "Shared" files in original Apps in my iPhone4S did not appear on itunes I came across a similar discussion on another Forum in which Jim described in some detail how to get the two devices (my iPhone 4S and my iPad2) to recognize similar embedded files in similar Apps.  https://discussions.apple.com/message/16690584#16690584
    I went through this promising procedure but it did not help.  Since the two devices are independent (I think -- they are on the same accoubt but ar different devices) I should be able to make them work the same way with regard to what is seem in iTune.

  • Undeleted mail not visible any more

    Hi,
    I've got the strange thing on iPhone - whenever I delete an email through built-in iOS mail client and then undelete it (move from the bin to the different folder) it's not visible on the iPhone any more. I can see it through web client but on iPhone it's imposible to see undeleted mail (it's not in the bin nor in the Incoming).
    Is it only mine phone with this bug and is there any way to overcome this? Thanks.

    Glad you got it working.

  • Why are web images not loaded on Safari?

    In many cases, as I open my Safari browser most web sites are not showing any image or picture. This happens for example for:
    - Google MAPS
    -  airbnb.com
    I have tried many times to empty cache and restart Safari, but it does't work at all. The same behaviour happens on Chrome browser.
    I've got a MacBook Air 11' (End 2010) with OS X Lion. Even with Leopard I had the same issue.

    Could this be a Flash issue.  Is Flash installed on your machine?
    I believe the Air does not come with Flash installed so you have to install it yourself.

  • Why are imported images rotated?

    When I import images (jpeg) into Pages, they are rotated 90 or 180 degrees. In Finder, iPhoto, and even Powerpoint this does not happen.
    How can I prevent images from being rotated when imported into Pages?
    iMac Intel 2.16Ghz 20"   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    iPhoto can easily rotate photos. It is easy enough that you could do a lot of them in one session:
    1. Rotate all your photos in iPhoto using the rotate icon on the toolbar. (Select the photo and click on the rotate icon.)
    2. Quit iPhoto (this saves the photo in the new rotated format.)
    3. Open Pages and import your photos using the media browser. They should all be rotated correctly.
    You can also batch rotate photos.
    1. Select them all in the iPhoto window. Hold the ⌘ key down while selecting to select non-contiguous items, or shift to select contiguous items.
    2. Click on the rotate icon. All photos will be rotated.
    3. Quit iPhoto

  • Why are the images not printing from InCopy? Why is the relink button in Links panel ghosted?

    I am having a problem with printing from Incopy. All stories are editable and that is working just fine. I am able to view the images although AD has set the graphics to not be editable yet I can still see them of course.
    My problem is upon wanting to print the layout. Getting a message that the image links are missing. I have not moved the original folders (they are all set up on the same level in one main folder). I am working remotely, layout based workflow via dropbox.
    My client would like to have the option to print layouts also initially. How can I relink the images if the "relink" button is ghosted. Can somebody help me please? I have tried doing a restart… Any ideas? 

    the-edmeister, you are a genious. I went to "view" then "toolbars" and de-selected "yahoo toolbar" and then moved the curser over my firefox page and it now works completely including the problem area (the top 3 cm of each screen). Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. You have no idea how good I feel know on this otherwise cold, windy and rainy day.

  • Why are security headers not visible when viewing "sent" mail for mail sent with S/MIME certificates?

    I am using an S/MIME certificate to sign my emails using Mail on Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  I have a trusted S/MIME certificate for each of my email accounts.  The certs and private keys are properly installed in the keychain.  I am able to successfully send signed (and optionality encrypted) email and the recipients are all all receiving the emails showing a trusted signed email without having to acknowledge or trust the signature.  So technically the certificates are working.  Obviously the encryption option is only offered when I also have the recipients certficate in my keychain.
    What I am noticing is that when I look in my sent items - (regardless of which email I used as the "sender") - I don't see any indication in the mail headers that the mail was sent with a signed certificate - even though I know the recipient is seeing that the mail is signed with a cert.  I have no way of telling whether I sent the mail as "signed" or "unsiged".  The default is to use the certificate for all outbound emails - unless I specifically uncheck the secure signing option before sending.  In mail that I recieve - sent from others with certs or sent from one of my email accounts to the other - I see the the certificate indication in the email header.
    On rare occasion - I do see the certificate when viewing sent mail - but only for  random sent mails - and so far I believe I have only seen the certificate show up in mail that is sent from my iCloud account.  I can send subsequent mail from iCloud - and still not see the certificate in the sent items.
    Why am I not seeing the Security Header showing the certificate when viewing mail that I have sent in my sent items folder?  Is there some setting that I am not seeing that controls this - or is this a bug in Mac Mail?  Also why does the security header show up for just a handful of sent emails - when hundreds of signed emails have been successfully sent.
    Any help would be appreciated.  The behavior is the same on my other Macs - at least the ones on which the certificates are also installed.
    Also - I don't have my certs installed on my iPhone yet - so I can't tell on the iPhone if the certs are showing up in the sent folder - but I can see the certs on mail that I send to myself from the Mac but receive on the iPhone.
    ~Scott

    I stopped using the S/MIME certs and stopped signing my emails.  Too many recipients were receiving them as "attachements" especially if the recipients email account was on an Exchange server.  My certs have since expired and I have not done anything to further analyze the situation.  My original post was over a year ago and I have long since been on Mavericks.
    To: iddontknowwhoiamsowhat ... I am not totally following your response.  You say you are seeing the exact same issue - yet you are also saying you can look at the sent mails from os x and ios - does this mean that you see the security badges on the sent emails in both os x and ios?  I assume you are on Mavericks?

  • Why are my emails not visible in Mac Mail?

    I have a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012), 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB.
    Running 10.10 Yosemite.  Have not had trouble until this morning. Was working in mail and suddenly  I could no longer see any emails.
    I closed out of mail & opened it again, that did not help. Turned off the computer. No luck. It still shows that I have emails and I can even send
    & receive emails. I just can not see them.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
              Envelope Index
              ExternalUpdates.storedata
    Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • Why are background images not showing in pdf?

  • Why is the pathfinder not working any more ? Too many nodes ?

    Hi there, I use Illustrator CS5 for geographical purposes and use to make maps.
    I'm making a huge and detailled map for about 6 months and discoverd last week that the pathfinder (the tool I use the most) does not want to work anymore.
    In this exemple :
    [url]http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/4606/help1f.png[/url]
    I wan't to soustract the white shape of the yellow shape but whatever I do, it won't work.
    The yellow shape is quite complex and have A LOT of nodes (I hope it's the correct name in english). Why don't you look at this unzoomed screen to check it out :
    [url]http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/5958/help2q.png[/url]
    Is it possible that I've reached a limit where i cannot use the pathfinder because my shape is too complicated ?
    Help me please because I'm stuck and cannot do anything anymore and I'm only at 30% of all I have to do with this map.
    Thank you all.

    @Jacob Bugge :
    Thanks for the advice. I've ust found out how to count my anchor points. The path used to have 30.000 anchor points and I discoverd that when cutting it, the pathfinder worked for a bit, and now I'm back to ~30.000 (31.986 exactly) and it stopped working again.
    Yes i use a single path at a time to use the pathfinder.
    @Monika Gause :
    When I click on the small icon for soustraction (substraction?), nothings happens at all. No error message. No lag or frozen screen. Just the normal way as if the pathfinder worked but unfortunately it doesn't... 
    Thanks for your advices anyway

  • Why are my images not loading?

    Hi there,
    I am trying to place an image inside of  VBox in my application, but when I run the application, all that is displayed is the placeholder for where the image is supposed to be.
    This is the code I am using to place the image:
    <mx:Canvas width="698"
                               height="35%"
                               right="0"
                               top="0"
                               verticalScrollPolicy="off"
                               horizontalScrollPolicy="off">
                        <mx:Image id="aviationNightFlight"
                                  maintainAspectRatio="true"
                                  scaleContent="true"
                                  height="100%"
                                  width="100%"
                                  source="assets/Aviation_Night_Flight.jpg"/>
                    </mx:Canvas>
    The image is located in the assets directory and the spelling is all correct.
    I have also tried source="@Embed(source='assets/Aviation_Night_Flight.jpg')"/> but that doesn't work either.
    Where is my error?
    Thanks so much!

    Where is the "assets" folder in relation to the src folder?
