Windows Photo Gallery Editing

I am having trouble with my windows photo gallery editing process. Whenever I try to edit a photo, crop, tag, rotatate, as soon as I am done editing the photo disappears on me. I can't find it in any other folders. Its like I deleted the photo except it doesn't go to my recycle bin either. Can anyone help me out? I would greatly appreciate it as I would like to figure out how to edit without this happening.
Thanks

Try setting Windows to Show hidden files.

    Windows photo gallery fixed my pictures automatically.  Does anyone know how to fix my video sync from sideways to upright?

  • Transfering Windows Photo Gallery tags to iPhoto

    Hi there everyone! I just bought a macbook . I transferred my pictures from my Vista desktop to my new macbook using an external HD. However, the tags from Windows Photo Gallery did not transfer over as keywords into iPhoto . The weird thing is some tags did transfer on a couple of pictures (around 10). Does anybody know any solutions to this?

    SecretPact:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions and in from the Darkside. . If the keywords are written into the IPTC fields in each photo then iPhoto can read them. But they have to be embedded into each file by Windows Photo Gallery. If you can go back to WPG and see if there's an option to write the metadata to the files and do it, you can reimport them and hopefully get the keywords to import. Try it on one or two photo that did not show the keywords first.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Why do I get a Fax prompt window when I try to print from Windows Photo Gallery?

    Trying to print photos from Windows Photo Gallery.  Print job looks as if it goes to the queue, but does not actually print.  Fax prompt window pops up as if I were preparing to fax.  Do I now have to disable the fax in order to print photos?  I take phone calls and faxes on the same phone line.

    1: I am sorry about the inconvinience. 
    The reason you find a check mark on a printer icon is to indicate that its a default printer. If the fax icon has a check mark, everytime you print a fax template will come up. 
    SOlution: Just right click on the other icon and select it as the default printer.
    2: Black lines while printing photos.
    CLick on the link below and check if the solution helps you.

  • Duplicate files appearing in Windows Photo Gallery under Vista Home Basic.

    I am suffering a bout of duplications in my Windows Photo Gallery under Vista. I am getting duplicates, triplicates and quadruple versions of the original file.
    Despite turning off all Autoplay media types to 'No Action', I get random duplicates when I try to enter update pictures from camera or memory chip through a USB port. There is no 'Enter Updates Only' option, and Microsoft says that this is unnecessary as
    duplication is prevented. The duplicates however appear with 'copy' in the file name after the image numbering system. My preference is to view the memory contents via 'Computer' - select and open the port, and view, then copy and paste into Photo
    Gallery.  Photo Gallery kicks in to view the chip correctly, but often/always (?) promptly uploads uncommanded. It did not used to do this, only in the last year or two.
    What do I do, it is driving me crazy ?  

    Hi,
    As I know, for Duplicate issue, it might be caused by a corrupted database, please try to rebuild it as a test.
    Close Windows Photo Gallery
    First show hidden files.Navigate to C:\Users\Usename\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Photo GalleryRename “Pictures.pd” to “Pictures.pd.old” (without quotes) and reopen Windows Photo Gallery.

  • How do you import media and metadata from Windows Photo Gallery database?

    How do you import videos and photos and their metadata from a Windows Photo Gallery database into the Elements Organizer, especially metadata that is only contained in the Photo Gallery database file (pictures.pd6) and not embedded in the video and photo media files themselves?
    And when you import the metadata into Organizer, do you get all of these available elements?
    Ratings
    Tags
    Captions
    People tags
    Geotags
    Also, if the media files in Organizer are ever moved to another PC, is there a way to migrate all of the Organizer's metadata with the files to use with another instance of Premiere Elements?

    OK.  I think we're getting close to the answer.
    The reason I'm asking about this is because for Photo Gallery, media files can NEVER be moved without losing all database metadata.        I'm sorry I didn't know this when I started with Photo Gallery and I think I've learned an important lesson:  Be sure you can move your work BEFORE you start.
    So, to clarify Organizer's behavior, let me ask the question another way.  Let's say that in a few years, after I've added tags, people, places, etc. to hundreds of media files in Organizer, I decide to get a new PC.   When I move all that stuff to my new petabyte drive on the new PC, do we know if Premiere Elements Organizer on the new PC would be able to read the original Organizer's metadata?

  • HT201302 Is it better to save photos using windows photo gallery or windows live photo gallery?

    Is it better to save photos from iphone 4s to laptop ..windows 7... using windows photo gallery or windows live photo gallery? ive used both and it appears to be adding all photos each time i do it despite which one i use.  My laptop is filling up with the same photos 2,3,4,5 times.... Depending what was on my phone at the time.... the older photos have been repeated more often. I thought when importing to laptop only new photos would be added... how do I change this?
    Also now I have so many duplicates i dont know which ones to delete as some have been saved as jpg... , imgJPG...., vcm_s_kf.... and vcm_s_kf_repr.... Why? and which ones do I delete?
    I have deleted some photos and pictures which look like computers, printers , docket printers  etc  Since then my Media Gallery does not work. Have I accidently deleted a driver or something? or is Media Gallery just overloaded?

    As long as you've backed up your photos, what you use is really a matter of personal preference. To avoid duplicates, pick one program. Getting rid of duplicates that you already have is probably going to mean going through the photos one by one.
    For problems with Windows Software, you're probably better off posting on a Windows forum.
    Best of luck.

  • I have bridge open, but it opens images in Windows Photo Gallery

    I have been trying to open some images, but it won't open them in Photoshop,  If I double click on a raw image it opens it in Windows photo gallery.  I have to right click to get it to go to camera raw, what has happened.

    Sorry just assumed you would realise it was PS CC.
    It was opening the NEF files in camera raw,but today it stopped and started opening them in that photo gallery, I don't know how to change it back.  I went to prefences in Bridge and it has photo gallery next to the NEF files, but doesn't look like I can change them. 

  • I Cannot View Pictures in Windows Photo Gallery Viewer

    When I open Windows Photo Gallery, all my pictures will be shown in the gallery but as soon as i click on a picture to actually view it, a message pops up saying that an error is preventing the Windows Photo Gallery Viewer from starting. If I click on a
    video, however, the video will play; its just the pictures that i cannot view. Do anyone know how to fix this problem or what may have happened to cause this problem? Please Help!

  • The image color in Windows Photo Gallery is wrong, same image in other program color is correct.

     This is the correct color form Google Image:
    This is the color from Windows Photo Gallery:
      It looks like it is a issue of Windows Photo Gallery bcause if the same image is opened in another program(Photoshop, paint, etc), the color stays same, the thumbnail color is correct as well. However, it is different in Windows Photo Gallery.
    Does anyone know what the problem is？
    Thanks.

    Windows photo gallery is not colour profile aware, so assumes your monitor is sRGB.  The same is true of the desktop wallpaper.  There is nothing you can do about this, other than use a different default picture viewing application as default, or convert your images to the ICC profile of your monitor (which you can do in photoshop).  I would only recommend this for wallpapers though.

  • Moving from Windows Photo Gallery to iPhoto

    Hi there,
    I have a couple thousand photos I'll be moving to iPhoto when I move to a Mac, and was wondering if anybody knows a painless way to get the metadata from Windows Photo Gallery in Vista across with them. Obviously I could go through and re-tag them all/album them all manually, but if there's a way of dragging albums, captions etc along with them then it'll be much appreciated.
    I've tried getting WPG to sort the folder structure for me and do it that way, but I can't find an option to do that with existing (Only with new imports).
    Thanks guys!

    Just select add when you import them and they will be added right in place.  You can use LR to move and rename folders.

  • Iphone won't download all photos into window photo gallery, downloads old random photos for some reason.

  • Windows Photo Gallery Warning - Not enough memory

    I am currently going through holiday pictures and deleting a fair few. I have folders that consist of around 1500 pictures, which includes both jpegs and NEFs. When I view these I have no problem for the first say 50 or even 100 at times. Eventually it gets to a state where pretty much every second picture reveals the following warning:
    'This photo can't be displayed. You might not have enough memory available. Close some programs or if your hard disk is almost full, free some disk space and try again.'
    The odd thing is that if I go back to a previous picture and then to the one that hadn't worked, it works most of the time. If not, I keep clicking left and right and eventually it works again. I only bought the laptop today, so the space isn't the issue. It's got 8GB of RAM too, so I should be fine.
    My model is: HP 15-G092SA
    I am thinking it could have to do with the limited 2MB cache that the graphics card has. Could that be the problem? If so, how do I solve it. Google doesn't seem to reveal many answers.
    Thanks to anyone that tries to help in advance.

    Hello Yasumy, welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you're having an issue with Windows photo gallery warning you of not enough memory to view your pictures. I will try to assist you with this.
    "I am thinking it could have to do with the limited 2MB cache that the graphics card has" - This is very valid, as you mention loading 50 - 100 photo's a time, there could just be too much data on the page to be processed at that time.
    A few suggestions that may help:
    view a smaller number of files
    Separate file types into their own folder
    Create additional sub folders with catagories. (1 folder with 1500 images is a lot of data to load at once)
    A few questions:
    Are you loading these to view off the notebook directly or are you loading the from another source? (Flash drive, SD card, Sky drive etc.)
    What's the operating system running on the notebook?
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
