Why cant I see image I am placing on black background?

I am trying to design a postcard with one image on a black background. I've made the area black w/rectangle tool and when i physically place image I cannot see it. Ive tried to move it to front? What am I doing wrong? Any help on resizing images would be helpful also. When I "placed" the image it was huge so I used the "transform" to reduce its size. How will this effect resolution? What is proper way to import image that you need to make smaller but maintain ratios? Many novice questions, I'd be grateful for help and answers.

Here is the 72 ppi warning.
Then I went to check what you suggested and here's what I found.
and the link
which isn't a linked image?
I am trying to do something that seems so simple, an image from a .jpg on a black background???? I just cant get the 300 dpi like they say I need
to do. I am far from a computer genius and screwed up the last postcard I made so I've got to get this right.
I appreciate any and all the help.
Hope to solve this in the am with all of your help, especially yours mr. falkner. Cheers.

    Why cant I see my CSS styles in the new Admin Editor?

    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 #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - 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.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - 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.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • HT201317 why cant i see my photos

    why cant i see my photos when i log onto my icloud account on my pc

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • Why cant i see my photos that i have on my phone on the computer?

    Why cant i see my photos that i have on my phone on the computer? For some reason, since i moved my itunes to an external hard drive, all sorts of issues keep happening. I cant see any of my photos when just plugging into a computer not with my itunes. It ays apple, etc, but 0 pictures show. Help?

    First close the Photos app, then remove it from the multi-tasking bar: double tap the Home button, tap & hold the Photos app until it starts to wiggle, tap the red minus sign. Tap Home button when finished.
    Then, reset your phone:
    Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.

  • HT3819 why cant i see my shared button on my itunes after i sync my acounts together?

    why cant i see the "shared" button thing when i sync my itunes together?

    Whats happened then is iTUnes basicly "Copied" its empty library file onto the iPod. When you connect the iPod to iTUnes it copys music over AND the library/database iTUnes has. Id say the music is there, but the iPOd Library hhas no "Link" or "Direction" to ponit to these files so it shows nothing.
    The only option you have now is using yamipod http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/home/ and seeing if it can recover these songs for you off the ipod. Read the "docs" on yamipods home page here to learn how to use it and what feature you need to use to recover off the iPod (Like Find lost music and repair iPOd) http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/docs/
    If it can not recover songs off the iPod, and you have no backups made, your going to be VERY limited in your options. you will have to "Re" import all your CDs. All songs you bought online you will have to email apple and see if they will offer a "Re" download of them. Keep in mind there under NO obligation to do so, but most have had success in emailing them and getting an offer to redownload songs they bought and have not be modified on the store. here a link to email the music store if you need to as a last resort http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/download/
    To backup music once you recover everything you can go here and follow steps http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/backup/

    Why cant I see my iphone on my computer

    Try clicking the link in my post above and then working through the 6 troubleshooting suggestions. It'll walk you through checking the Apple Mobile Device service.
    If you don't want to try anything that involved, you can just try uninstalling the security software on your computer and then testing again. If it doesn't work, you can download and reinstall iTunes, then test again. Just make sure you reinstall the security software on your computer, if you removed it.

  • Why cant i upload images from pc onto website

  • HT4972 Why cant I see software updates in my setting?

    why cant I see software updates in my settings?

    Because your iPhone 3G cannot run any version of iOS higher than 4.2.1, which came out before the "Software Updates" was added (in iOS 5).

  • Why cant I see BOTH video tracks at the same time?

    I read all the manuals,I swear.
    I make film collage and want to do multiple layer exposures of different clips.
    So far I just have two video tracks-
    Why cant I see BOTH video tracks at the same time,I mean each track will create another layer,or exposure that will both play back viewable simultaneously right ?Or would that be considered "layering"?
    Does this have anything to do with the source vs. destination thing ?

    FCE plays back video tracks in a "top-down" manner: that is what's on track 3 obscures what's on track 2 which obscures what's on track 1. You can control scale, position and opacity of each clip on each track so that you can get the layering you seem to be after.

  • When I select an image, why do I see a grey warning triangle and black screen?

    When I select an image, why do I see a grey warning triangle on a black screen?  I can see the image in the Event review, but it won't let me see it independently.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    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. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.
