Why won't the images load in iphoto anymore?

Iphoto has worked great for several years, all of sudden it has
sort of crashed, must be operator error.
After downloading some RAW photos from a new camera, the library
won't show any images, just blank frames. The actual photos are
in the drive, about 9000 of them, they just don't upload into the
nice, organized, date labeled iphoto library. When an individual
photo is selected, it comes up black.
I processed all the RAW photos into jpegs, thinking that was the
problem, and trashed the RAW ones. Still no luck, rebuilt the
library without success.
Running Iphoto 5, 10.4.11
Thank you in advanced for any ideas.

What camera produced those Raws?
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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.
Regards
TD

    more info would help. If you're using actionscript and
    loading images from a folder maybe your path to that location is
    wrong. It's possible that your images aren't in the right layer or
    level but noticed that when initially published.

    This code is starting a thread with an empty run method :

    }-> GameEngine.java
    public void run() {
    }The singleton pattern used in GameEngine needs reworking (The constructor is not private), and getEngine() returns engine without checking if it exists.
    You should also not be overriding the paint methods, especially for a game as it can be called at random.
    The draw method in Sprite is drawing an Image but the Sprite constructor takes a byte [] and does not actually initialize the Image variable with the byte [].
    I also have absolutely no idea what the Util class is for ...
    Would loading your images as ImageIcons or BufferedImages not be easier?

  • Why won't The Chive load on my MBP?

    MBP 10.6.8
    2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    I've (finally) updated to Snow Leopard and thought perhaps it would cure a problem I had in Leopard, but no luck. I can load just about any page with no issues, but The Chive kills me. It takes minutes to load the home page, then minutes to load galleries. We're not talking 1000s of photos either. 20-60 per page. My download speed is just over 32mbps. This is at home. My Toshiba pos laptop at work (getting almost 4mbps...yes, 4) pulls it up and navigates the site flawlessly. What am I missing?

    You've used the url: thechive.com? What browser?

  • In E-Bay auctions why won't the photos load?

    I am running Vista Home Basic and cannot see pictures listed in individual auctions on E-Bay. I can see pics when I do a search but when I click on the auction there is no picture. Javascript is enabled too! Also, MYSpace does not seem to be displaying properly.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Not sure, been going on for at least a couple of weeks now.

    '''text'''''text'' Hello, this is Shannon again. (The original poster with the problem). I tried all of these things that are recommended in the link you left, though I do appreciate your efforts.
    I'm extremely frustrated because Mozilla is my default browser, but because I have a problem with E-Bay, which I'm on every day, and My Space, which I'm also on every day, I would really like to get this problem solved as soon as possible. Please? I'm hoping someone can help me with this...hopefully very soon!
    Thank you to anyone who takes the time to offer their assistance.

  • Why won't LR 3 load all the images in a cataloged file?

    When I try to open a folder or collection of images (in Library, grid view), some of the images load right away, others take several seconds, and some never load. Instead I see gray boxes, albeit with the proper DSC number in the upper right corner of each. I'm using LR 3.6 on Windows 7.

    Hi Bob,
    The question is: where are your previews stored?
    Normally, without applying some hack, they are next to the catalog.
    On my windows7-system that is by default in
    C:\Users\[your username]\Pictures\Lightroom, a folder named "[your LR4-Catalog name] Previews.lrdata".
    So the previews should always be online.
    It may be that LR4 was not complete in building the previews when you closed it last time ?
    Otherwise I share your puzzlement. So I would render all standard previews for your entire catalog and then expect that it should not happen again...
    Becaues that is the beauty of a complete set of previews: I can do all sort of LR-work apart from Develop while the images themselves are offline - something I would never want to miss!

  • I have created a webpage. The images load on EI and Chrome. But not on Firefox. Why is that?

    I have created a webpage ( luckysquidstudios.com) with basic HTML and none of the images load on Firefox. They load on Chrome and IE. Why is that.

    That is a problem with backslashes in the image links that Firefox sees as %5c.<br />
    You need to change those to forward slashes

    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Are any fo the unsyning songs DRM protected?
    What is the detail format of the non-syncing songs?
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?

  • Why don't the photos load properly

    When i scroll through my photos in my library (in loop mode) why don't the photos load properly and the photos still blurred?

    LR may not have rendered the necessary previews yet.
    Did you render only minimal previews in your import settings?
    How big have you specified your standard previews in your preferences? It should match the screen you are mostly using for image viewing.
    Then you can invoke the command to let LR render standard previews from the Library. LR will first scan how many previews it already has, then actually create the missing ones.

  • Why won't the Avatar Interactive Desktop work on Windows xp SP3

    As said in the title Why won't the Avatar Interactive Desktop work on Windows xp SP3. I have tried everything (uninstalling AIR, reinsalling it etc) I can think of but nothing makes it work. This image shows what I get in return every time I try to install the app. My PC meets all requirements to run Adobe AIR. Why is this occuring? I have the current version of AIR.  

    Hi oxide9999999999,
    For the moment, you have to install the version of AIR linked from their site: http://www.avatarmovie.com/desktop/index.html
    Hope this helps,

  • HT203164 Why won't the song titles transfer with the music when I burn to disc and play on another device?

    Why won't the song titles transfer with the music whaen I burn to disc and play or copy to another program?

    Thank you, reducing the image size worked! I had used a low res file before, and with success decided to increase the resolution/size, and then it didn't work. the image did appear in small preview in the export panel, but wouldn't burn when all was said and done. the dimensions you gave worked fine. unfortunately, it makes the image a little bit fuzzy, but i dont think i can do anything about this. at least it burned it in there. thanks!
