  • Click on the Photo icon and it does not open. I recently downloaded and installed El Capitan and it seems to have slowed things. How can I solve this problem?

    I click on the Photo icon, but it does not open. I recently downloaded and installed El Capitan 10.11.5, and I wonder if it is slow things down.  My iMac has 2 GB of memory and 124,75 GB of free space. Picture worked fine, then I wonder what is happening. Can anyone help?

    Yes, it's probably slow things down a GB of s2 on memory is the absolute minimum - you need to update your memory which is cheap and easy - a reasonable and a reliable source is Other World Computing- there are others including Apple

  • Since the update of the 16 to 17, shortcuts to office created by dragging show generic Windows icon instead of the Firefox-page icon.

    During the upgrade of the FF 16 or 17, I can always drag the icon that is to the left of the url on the desktop (or even quick launch of XP, shortcuts to files, etc.) to create an internet shortcut to the current page. However, with 17 this method produces a shortcut that shows a generic Windows icon instead of a Firefox-page icon. Even if a generic Windows icon shows normally "no associated program," these always open with FF when double-clicked. But it does not look good. (BTW, all of the shortcuts created by this method in FF 16 or less preserved the FF-page 17 updated icon.)

    No idea why this has changed and how to fix it so that it looks the same as before?

    Pending the resolution of the present (and another question) I went back to 16 FF, and it works normally again. However, shortcuts that were created while I had 17 always display the generic Windows icon.

  • (Redirected) Photo icons

    Hi, I use Windows 7 on a computer Dell desktop and for some reason that my photo icons are all transformed into the same image which is a pine tree on the hills of yellow.  I have thousands of pictures and to have glimpses of these pictures as icons but this changed recently and I don't know how.

    I tried right clicking and changing properties and also to the opening with different programs, but nothing works.

    Is there anything I can do to recover all the previews. I also changed the sizes of icons etc, but it does make a difference.

    This makes it very difficult to find photos.

    Another method is to do a system restore.

    If you remember a time when you did NOT have this problem, and if this date is not too long, use this date or before as your restore point.

  • Faces no display photo icon

    When on the faces, I select a face, but the next screen shows some of the photo mode icon. But if I select one of the empty icons, the photo will appear.

    Someone else had this problem?

    How thumbnails of faces are missing?

    Photos have no way to force the recreation of miniature faces. You can try to repair the photo library, but it is not certain if that will fix the database of faces. and if you use iCloud photo library, Photo Upload all the photos again to iCloud after repair of the library.

    If only a few pictures have disappeared from thumbnails of faces, it might be faster to export the photo with missing thumbnail faces, then delete the photo library, empty the recently deleted album and then reimport the picture.  Photos it will still search the faces and create a thumbnail of new faces during the import.

    If several thumbnails are empty, you can try to restore your library of Photos from the last backup that you made before the problem first occurred.
