Why are some images imported as "IMG_9999.jpg" and others as "_MG_9999.jpg"?

When importing a bunch of pictures from a Canon 5D MKIII, some of the images have a "IMG_9999.jpg" filename, and others in the same batch have a "_MG_9999.jpg" filename (the leading "I" is an underbar).  Is there a reason or fix for this other than manually creating the names?

Color space setting.  See https://www.google.com/search?q=img+vs+_mg&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&client=safari .
Note these names are supplied by the camera and not by Aperture.
Aperture allows you to change the file names of Originals on import or after.  I change mine to something useful to me on import.  Search forum for "File Naming Convention".

  • Why do some images open in Photoshop CS5  and others not when I'm using Edit With command in InDesign

    Sometimes when I try to edit images from within InDesign Photoshop says it cannot open because of a problem. I noticed that it's not with every image. But I cannot see why. Some are my own images from iPhoto, some are from the morgue files. Anyone?

  • Why are some cells in my spreadsheet higher than others? There's like extra space.

    DreamLife,
    you can adjust the row height byt selecting the separator between rows.  It is possible you made this adjustment accidentally.  To se the row height to be the same as other rows select a row that has the height you want:
    Then open the table inspector.  Look at the row height and note the value.  Now select the row (s) you want to adjust, then change the "Row Height" value in the table inspector.  To view the inspect select the menu item "View > Show Inspector"

  • Why are some items on itunes not available in other countries. like the book world war z by max brooks?

    ok so i want to buy max brooks novel WWZ from the uk itunes store. but i cant becuase its only available in the USA..... why is that? why are some things limited to certain countries? im gonna go to the local book store and just buy a (much cheaper) hard back copy anyway, but it genuinely makes zero sense why itunes does this. very frustrating is a understatement as this happens with music and videos also! ......

    It's the content providers decision, not Apple - the book publisher, record company, film studio have to grant Apple a license to sell their content in each country. So if the book publisher has only granted Apple a license to sell it in the US store but not the UK store, then Apple can't put in in the UK store.

  • Why are some images being exported to Assets folder?

    On my desktop I have the structure of an Assets folder and within that a Images folder.  When I export to HTML it puts a few of the images in the Assets folder.  They are ones that are hyperlinked from a smaller image so that when they click on the smaller image the larger jpg opens in a new window.  I have security on the Assets folder on the server so I don't want these to go in there.  I am having to manually move them into the Images folder and then update the links in the HTML files.  Is there a way to make them go into the Images folder like all the rest of the images are automatically doing when I export?  By the way I don't want them to be a Lightbox slideshow.  They are large images so I want them in a window so the person viewing them can move around in the browser to view the image if they have a smaller monitor.

    Using Acrobat DC and the acrobat arrow tool. By right clicking on an image a submenu pops up. One of the items in that list is "Edit Image".  Ordinarily or historically this would then open the image in Photoshop as a temp file. Edits could be made and saved and the image would be auto updated back into the PDF.  In DC when selecting edit image, the document goes into a edit mode and the entire file gets converted into RGB color.  From here one could again right click on the same image and get the option to edit using another program, (like photoshop).  When returning back to document mode, the RGB conversion remains.
    I determine the files are converted to RGB by using the inspector tool in Acrobat as well as looking at the colorspace in Photoshop
    I determined the files were CMYK by building them that way and again verifying using Pitstop inspector.
    Following screen grabs show image before / and after selecting "Edit Image"

  • Why are some images at a shopping web site not displaying?

    images at JCPenny don't display when I'm shopping a particular item, click on it and the details come up. The photo of the item won't display, just the details. The small block icon at the top and bottom of where the photo would be is visible but the entire area where the item photo should display is blank.

    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    *You can inspect and manage all permissions on the about:permissions page, via the location bar.
    *Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    *Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    Make sure that you do not block third-party images permissions.default.images

  • Why are some songs in a playlist checked an others not?

    I have created a new playlist from some of my music but some of the songs have a tick (check) mark in the box next to them and others don't.  I can't seem to either check all of the songs or uncheck the checked ones.  Does this matter?  What does it mean?  Any advice gratefully received, thanks

    I have the same issue.. seems like randomly.. some songs are unchecked by iTunes (I've never proactively unchecked any).. is this a bug?

  • Why are still images importing larger than their size?

    Per instructions in a thread I had here last week, I created all of my DVD still images at 720 x 534 pixels for Premiere Pro CS5.5. But when they are brought into a DVCPRO50 NTSC Standard sequence, they are being heavily clipped. The original in one example is this:
    But when that same images is brought into PP, it is sized up like this:
    It's still proportionally correct, but a lot of the top and bottom of the image are gone. The encoded MPEG-2 sequence and disk I've done as a test display just like that.
    Why is PP doing this, and how can I get it to use images built to the correct size to be used 1:1 in a sequence instead of being scaled to about 115% of size? Hate to compare this way, but this was never an issue with Final Cut Pro, which I'm switching from. Stills created to the size FCP needed of 720 x 540 displayed and finished exactly as they were made in Photoshop. The only image area lost was the normal bit of overscanning DVDs display at on your TV.

    I guess I don't understand.  This is an excerpt from the CS help.  This seems to be inconsistent with what the last two posts said.
    Composition settings presets for square-pixel equivalents of standard definition formats have changed as follows:
    format

  • Why are some of my photos tack sharp while others in the same series are out of focus?

    My camera is a Canon Rebel XS (dSLR) and I primarily use the 50mm f/1.8 lens. 
    I shoot in Manual Mode with Autofocus ON.
    I am having difficulty with my photos coming out incositant - some are out of focus, while others in the same series (taken a moment apart) are tack sharp.
    I've attached two examples - one of the out-of-focus image, the other sharp images (both have been blown up).
    It is not camera shake and my settings are identical for both photos. (ISO 200 | f/4.5 | 1/100sec in this instance.)
    This has become such a problem that I find myself needing to take 10x more photos of the same subject/pose in order to hopefully get one sharp image from the series.
    I have asked multiple people about this problem (though I have yet to take my camera and lens to a shop due to lack of funds) and no one has any idea of either what I'm talking about or what the problem could be.
    I would appreciate your thoughts and help!
    Thank you! 
    Fuzzy/Out of Focus:
    Sharp:

    This new pair of images does not look like camera motion -- this one looks like it missed focus.
    If you use the included Canon Digital Photo Professional that came with your camera, you can right-click an image and tell it show you the focus point which were used (the camera wont know if you did a focus-and-recompose technique... so if you recompose after locking focus then the focus points indicated by DPP wouldn't be meaningful). But I bring this up because it would allow you to determine which focus point the camera claims it used.
    I think you mentinoned that you used "One Shot" focus mode -- not AI Servo. One Shot should block the camera from taking the shot until it thinks it confirmed focus-lock on the selected AF point (or on at least one AF point it you allow the camera to pick from any of its available focus points.) In AI Servo the camera WILL take the shot when you fully press the button -- whether it successfully locked focus or not.
    That brings us back to the subject of the focus test.
    If you do not own a commercial chart, then you may want to download one from the Internet and print it. Here's a good site: http://regex.info/blog/photo-tech/focus-chart
    Print the chart and follow the instructions. I deliberately run the camera out of focus to nearest focus distance and force the camera to re-focus and shoot... and I repeat this at least a half-dozen times. I then repeat... but this time deliberately run the camera out of focus to infinity before forcing the camera to focus and take the shot.
    Track each shot as you do the focus test. You may see a pattern emerge (e.g. perhaps it nails focus when going in one direction to find focus... but misses in another, etc.) Such a pattern might indicate the lens is getting sloppy and needs service (it's usually not worth servicing the 50mm f/1.8 due to it's low cost.) The USM and STM lenses allow full-time manual focus override (even if the lens is auto-focusing). The basic auto-focus motor lenses (like the 50mm f/1.8) do not support this and forcing manual focus without disengaging the focus system can be harmful.

  • Why are there no login bars on Amazon and other sites on my computer?

    When i go to log in on Amazon or even just go to Kroger.com and try to complete a survey, the spaces/bars do not appear for me to enter my information into.

This problem does not happen when i use Internet Explorer on the same computer. It might also be a problem on the computer itself but I don't know what it could be. Please help!!

  • 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.

    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?

  • Why are some (but not all) of my Muse slideshow widget images rotated differently than when I edited them in Photoshop CC?

    I have a few dozen photographs embedded in the slideshow widget. Most of them appear exactly as I edited them in Photoshop, but several appear rotated clockwise 90 or 180 degrees. Does anyone know why this is happening, and ideally, how I can correct this problem? Thank you.
