Why are my photo icons scrambled? IMAC, new!

why are my photo icons scrambled? when i open them they are fine but this so not what i'm willing to live with. this is a brad new imac!

You really will need to give some information before anyone can help. Is this in the Finder? Or some application? What on earth does "scrambled" mean?

  • Why are some jpg images scrambled when they appear in my screen saver?   The same images look fine in Preview and Finder.  Some images appear scrambled in the screen saver 'preview' window and the actual screen saver. Other jpg images look fine.

    The desktop image is fine, taken from the exact same pool of jpg photos.  However, as soon as the slide show screen saver comes on, the images are scrambled.  What is it about the apple screen saver algorithm that scrambles the pics?

  • Photos icon showing 1 new photo but nothing there!

    The new 'Photos' icon shows a new photo but nothing new is there.  Is this just a glitch with the 2015 app or should the desktop icon be showing a '1' with the Photos icon?

    I am having the same problem mentioned here. I see there is no response to your posting. Have you figured out what is going on yet?
    I looked through all my account settings and my email rules. I found a rule that may have been the cause of some of the problem but not all of it. This morning "Mail" indicated it was downloading 17 messages from my POP account but only 4 were in my inbox. The missing 13 are gone for good (into the bit bucket I guess). I know that I am not getting mail from a specific correspondent whose email address is in my address book. I'm at a loss.

  • Why are the photos I copied onto a DVD from I-Photo not viewable by a Windows PC?

    Why are the photos I copied onto a DVD from iPhoto not viewable on a Windows PC?

    Because you did it wrong? It's hard to know unless you tell us what you did.
    What should work:
    Select the photos you want to share
    File -> Export and export them to a folder on the desktop. Burn that to the disk with the Finder.

    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

    What has happened? Where is my iPhoto and why are my photos now in Photos? This *****. The whole reason I bought a Mac was the ease of iPhotos. Horrible. Bad move.

    iPhotos is still in your Applications folder. The iPhoto Library is still in your /Home/Pictures/ folder.

  • Hi why are my photos after downloading twice ,once in photo library and once in a file with the date why cant i delete a file its an iphone 4s please help

    why are my photos after downloadon twice one as photo library the other as a file with date how can i delete one file same pics

    Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
    It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
    1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
    2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
    I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
    I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
    Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
    If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
    If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
    1. Right click images you want to share.
    2. Select Export version.
    3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
    4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
    This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
    See how you go.

  • Why the portrait photo icon isn´t in my ipad 2?

    hello! somebody can help me? i don't know why the portrait photo icon isn´t in my ipad 2?

    I assume that you mean the PhotoBooth app has gone missing.
    Swipe from screen to screen to look for it.
    Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't restrict the camera app or something in the privacy settings with regard to photos.
    You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • Why are some photos on camera roll but not in photo stream. Unable to backup as camera roll size is too big for free 5gb.

    Why are some photos on camera roll but not in photo stream. Unable to backup as camera roll size is too big for free 5gb.

    I assume you have Photostream on, correct?
    In order for the photos to be moved into Photostream, you must exit the camera app, and be on a wifi connection.  Both of these criteria must be met before the sync occurs.

  • Why are the photos i print much darker than the monitor image?

    why are the photos i print much darker than the monitor image?

    Please read this post then provide some details.  What printer model? What operating system? What program are you printing from?
    Some programs such as Photoshop give the option to print to CMYK or sRGB color spaces.  Even though the printer uses CMYK inks the driver is expecting sRGB data.  If CMYK is selected the prints will be much too dark.
    Another thing to check is the media type.  If you are printing on plain paper and have seelcted Photo paper the prints have too much ink.

  • Why are my photos importing from my sd card out of order?

    Why are my photos importing out of sequence when uploading from an sd card?

    The card is probably sorted alphanumerically in ascending order, i.e. a1, a2, a3, etc.  So set your view option to: Sort by Title Ascending. Then check to see if that's correct.  If not change it.

  • Why are my photos from iphone not on my computer?

    why are my photos from my iphone not on my computer?

    Someone actually responded to me in another thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16418849#16418849
    Told me to try unchecking the box to sync Photos.
    Do a sync.
    Then check the box.
    And sync again.
    Going to try that now. Let me know if it works for you James
    Cheers

  • Why are my photos now appearing in very low resolution?

    What happened to my sharp and clear photos? Why are my photos now very low resolution with a progress image appearing as a circle on the photo and filling in 1/4 of the circle.  Why are the photos very low resolution copies that look like crap? Where are the good sharp photos I took?

    Latest iOS on iPad Air in photos. It appears server was slow. Progress bar circle now filling in complete circle and resolution is good.  Why do I have to download my photos from iCloud i have plenty of memory space on my ipad ?  Same with movies and music I purchased.  I bought extra physical
    memory when I purchased my iPad so I could view my stuff regardless of whether I had a wifi connection...apparently not.
