OS X :: Picture Previewing On Mac - Cannot Open
Dec 30, 2008
I am a recent Mac user and there is one thing that is bugging me. In Windows, if I wanted to view all the pictures one by one in a folder, I'd just double click and Windows Picture Preview will launch and you can hit the left / right arrow keys to go to the other pictures. In the Mac side, to achieve this, you have to select every picture file for you to be able to hit the right / left arrow keys to advance. You can't just open one picture and have it open everyone in the folder. Anyone know how I can make this work?

I recently bought my Mac Pro off of a friend. He still had it under his name, and I changed it to my name under system preferences. I think it messed up the uploading, exporting, importing, and viewing of my pictures. I can upload them to the computer fine, but when I go to export or view them in iPhoto, all I get is a black screen. Exporting, and it tells me unable to create "users/(friends name)/documents/" I don't want to lose my pictures. I've already tried to rebuild the library with iPhoto Manager and with iPhoto itself.
Info:
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

I'm placing images in both Quark and InDesign. When we go to preview image they appear with there alpha masks activated. Images have to be .tifs and we have to use alpha channels.

I've been using my macbook for a few months right now, and primarily use it for recording me and my band-mates on Logic express, but now, I've not been able to use my iSight on my mac. I don't know what's wrong with it, because I've always been able to take photos with friends in Photo Booth and take movies with it as well. Up till now that is. A few days ago I tried to open up Photo Booth and snap a picture, but all I got was a blank screen. The program would count down, but the screen would just be white instead of showing what it would take. The little green light next to it would go on as well, but it wouldn't take a picture, and nothing is blocking the screen either.

Ok I have been trying to find the reason why this is happening. I am having an issue with the icons disappearing, the file is still there and you can click on it if you click on the words, but the icon is not there just the icon is gone. The icon that is not showing up is the folder icon primarily. I have searched several different sites and can not find an answer to my problem. I have included a link to view what my desktop looks like with the files pictured so you get an idea. URL
I have tried to do the equivalent of a (rebuild desktop) desktop reset which was a program I downloaded from apple: URL
It did not help either and after installing that and doing the reset. Now when I go to open a picture, it opens in color sync instead of preview. The only way I can open a picture in preview is to open preview and then open a picture through it. It is like color sync is the default for some reason. Does someone know how to fix this? But my main concern is tis icon issue I am having. I don't know what to do as it is making it very hard to work. This even carries over to my external drives when hooked up. I need help as I do not know why it is doing this. : (
As far as other information, I just installed Tiger a few months ago if that helps any and this is on a mac mini. Other than that everything has been the same. I have relaunched the finder through opt+cmd+esc but it is not available to relaunch through right clicking the icon on the dock. Also it no longer allows me to drag a picture file over a program like Photoshop in the dock to open it in Photoshop. What is going on here? This getting crazy!!

So this Preview opens automatically every picture on hard drive when I open the program. I haven't found any way to stop it.

As stated in title, the desktop picture will randomly revert to a picture I had up there months ago, usually when I run the battery all the way down on my unibody MB, but also when I change display settings when i plug into an external monitor.
Do I just need just reset the PRAM or is there something else I'm missing.
BTW, I have searched and I know I only have a few posts...

I have a Mac Mini (previous model to the aluminium one) and I have just got a Kanex MDP to HDMI adapter. I plugs into the MDP and USB and it take A/V.However there are no setting that allow me to fit the whole picture perfectly on the screen.
With my old HDMI adapter I used the 1280x720 setting, however no such thing exists now.How can I get round this?

How does one take a screen picture. I have an ibook G4, but I assume one presses the same keys in a Mac Book, (or MBP), in order to get the screen picture.

I have a 2.2 Santa Rosa 15" MBP, and an odd thing happened last night. I wasn't running any unusual applications, and had a few things open and was browsing in Firefox. All of a sudden my screen went black, and wouldn't come back up.
The computer is still running just fine, and it didn't go to sleep. The LED backlight is fine, as the Apple logo is lit up and if I change the brightness I can see the backlight changing (the "black" screen gets less "black", if that makes sense), however the actual display panel isn't projecting any picture at all.
I've restarted a dozen times, reset PRAM, and did the unplug battery and hold power button trick, all to no avail. There's no flicker of a picture or anything... it's as if the monitor is completely dead (aside from the backlight being fine).
If I plug in an external monitor, I can use the computer just fine. So it's not like the video card is dead all the way.

When I first turned on my computer, it had me take a user picture for my login in OSX. It's a really good picture of my friends and myself. I was wondering where this picture is located so I can get a bigger version.

I like putting different background pictures on my various folders, but I cant get the Mac OS X HD background to stick. My user folder sticks around after logout, but the Mac OS X one reverts to what I have set as defaults.
I'm the only user (therefore administrator as well), so I don't see what the problem is.

So whenever I use apps like Preview or JustLooking to view pics, they seem to display all my camera photos correctly, whether they be rotated or not, they will always display fine for me. However, when I send them via email or upload them or whatever, some of them will appear upside down and whatnot. Now it's all groovy that these apps won't even require me to manually rotate the pics, but what that causes is that I never know which ones should be fixed before I send them out.

I have just upgraded from W7 to iMac :P Yay. Just trying to organise my files again and get used to the new system, one thing I can't work out how to do tho is set a picture as a movie thumbnail. On my W7 I used to have all the movies DVD cover's there so I could flic thru them, and once I choose a movie clicking on the picture would open the movie - I dont know if this was a picture that acted like a short cut or what, however with the Mac cover-flow view it would be really handy to have this back again instead of the thumbnail being of the first few seconds of the movie or the VLC cone...

I am looking for a FREE program that I can grid a few pictures with. I would love the grid to be 1 mm x 1 mm if possible? If not, then just a grid would be great.

actually i've been running 10.5.3 just fine for a few days now. but suddenly last night my picture-preview icons disappeared, i'm left with only the plain app-related icons. i hope you know what i'm talking about.
i don't think i changed anything. i'm also running parallels with windows XP hom on it, but again that's been fine and i didn't lose my icons before. it's not a terrible thing, just kind of nice to see, and i wonder why they're gone? i ran disk utility and there was nothing to fix.

It is definitely important to me though. I downloaded the free trial of Pixelmator to my new 2013 Mac Pro and I can not seem to load any images. I see plenty of controls, but the center of my screen is my screen saver and no picture to edit. I am clicking file, open and then the image I want, but nothing happens.

OS X Mavericks (10.9.4), Pixelmator
