Error trying to open .jpg from an SD card image using Windows Photo Gallery: this file format is not supported, or you do not have the latest updates of photo gallery
Vista - Photo Gallery
Tried to upload a .jpg from an SD card image (the image was scanned with a Pandigital Photo converter, slide, negative (model # 05 PANSCN).) This message appeared in the photo gallery, "Photo Gallery can't open this photo or video. This file format is not supported, or you do not have the latest updates to the photo gallery. "I inserted the SD card even in a HP Photosmart C6280 printer; the printer has recognized the file and print the photo. The converter from Pandigital is useless unless the Vista updates can 'cure' photo gallery. What do you, Microsoft?

=====================================
Just one question... when done scanning and recording of the scans...
you select the options to reduce the file size by compressing
the photos?
If you have only a few of these scans... you could open their
one at a time in Windows Paint and go to... File / save as...
Enter a new name, choose a backup folder and choose .jpg.
This will create a new version of the same photo and I suspect
It will be compatible with Windows Photo Gallery.
Also... it may be interesting to try to install Windows Live Photo Gallery.
(FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
Restore point before installing software or updates)
Download Windows live Photo Gallery
http://explore.live.com/Windows-Live-Photo-Gallery
(There are other applications included in the download...
Uncheck the ones you don't want)
No guarantee... but there is a possibility that reinstall
DirectX can improve this problem.

Hello
Thank you for using the Microsoft Vista answers Forum.What is the file format of the images?
All the pictures have the same symptoms?
Disable the antivirus software on your computer and check if it works very well.
Make sure you have all updates for your version of Vista.
You can also try the new Windows Live Photo Gallery, as it has more features and should solve your problem.

Hello
A very complicated problem. that I ran.
I created a panorama with Photoshop CS5 (running Windows Vista). There is a number of images BULLIES that have been sewn together using Psalm I flattened the image and saved in the jpg format. This jpg image can be read by Windows Photo Gallery application
I want to create a larger image (72 "long) to print. I went back to the PSD file and increased the size of the image in increments of 10% ~ 49 to 72 long. Then, I saved this image to jpg (same options jpg). As this image is corrupted when I try to see in Vista (Windows Photo Gallery). It cannot be read in Microsoft Paint either.
In the end, I need to send this image to get printed but I fear that it is corrupt. I tried 3 different computers to Windows Vista (laptop computers for desktop computers) and the corrupt message is the same
What is strange, is that Photoshop can open the jpg image. Apple Image Viewer can open the image and my laptop with Windows 7 can read the image.
So I don't know if the image is corrupted or if it is a problem with vista or photo gallery
I also tried to open with Microsoft Paint and it doesn't work.
Thank you

New PC with Windows 7. Photos taken before the new PC either cannot be a spectator, or can be displayed but are in the right folder with the incorrect file names (e.g. cat photo is labeled as DOG)
In my case, when I plugged in my phone on my desk, it prompted me to update the software to communicate better with my phone. Immediately after completing the update was when I lost the ability to open images in Photo Viewer.
To solve the problem, I went to control panel, and then uninstall a program and then uninstalled the newest program associated with my phone. It was easy since I knew exactly when he started to act up. Some of you may need some trial and error to find the problem.

Others have had problems similar to mine and I read all the posts but nothing seems to solve my problem.
I saved a bunch of pictures in a folder on an external flash drive that were originally attachments in e-mail messages. They run very well on the disc and I opened and one closed the reader a couple of times but now I can't seem to open it in the viewer of photos or any other viewers. I have other pictures on the same drive in other folders and they open without any problems.
The first time it happened I display thumbnails but could not open them. I just insterted my flash drive to see what was going on, and now I can see only 3 thumbnails on a total of about 50 photos. A lot of disk space too.
Any suggestions anyone. Thanks a lot if you can try to help him.
Hello pentax12,
It should not make difference if the folder has been shared or not to see the photos.
I suggest you see if you can copy them to the hard drive and then try to open in the Gallery of photos or a different default viewer.Let us know.
Thank you

I am trying to download the demo version of 'WoW' World of Warcraft. I get to the part where he is configing its parameters to my computer and get a runtime error that something caused my program is complete. I read the other posts which had similar problems so I ran sfc/scannow in the command prompt window. It reads... Resources Windows Protection found corrupt files but was not able to fix some. Details are provided in the CBS.log newspaper. I've shortened, but it is easy to understand that there is a question that the scan will not fix. I tried to access the CBS.log newspaper and opened a text doc, that was a bunch of YYYYYYYYY. I'm a little lost here and my 10 free WoW trial days is weathering away without me =)

Borrow a Microsoft Vista DVD(not Dell, HP, etc Recovery DVDs) to do a repair installation
If you see a startup Neosmart repair disk download here, this is NOT what you want.
You want a good Vista DVD that contains the operating system files.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you need a recovery media for your laptop back to factory settings, read this info:
How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.
There is no Vista free download legal available.
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.
They will tell you how to do this.
Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu
