Parameters for importing Windows Photo Gallery is completed. (They simply disappeared!)

In the photo gallery Windows and Windows Live Photo Gallery the 'import' settings have disappeared. I can open the parameters dialog box and tab 'import' itself is still there but it is empty. There are no settings to change. I am still able to import, but I can't change where pictures import to or anything. The parameters are the same as the last time they were available before their disappearance.

Basically: I open the Windows Photo Gallery (Live) and everything works fine except for one thing. When I click on import one file - Options-, there is nothing in the importation of the settings box tab. (There are no settings to change. They are not there.) It is empty. Why is it empty? (If there is already a forum for this question, would someone please direct me to it?)

  • Nikon d5100 video won't import in Windows Photo Gallery

    I've recently upgraded to a Nikon D5100 to the D5000.  I had no problem at all to import photos and videos from the D5000.  However, only the photos import to Windows Photo Gallery... and the videos are not!  I've tried everything I can think of and nothing will work.  Windows Photo Gallery is not compatible with this device?  Are the videos of the D5100, another type of file than the D5000?  Help!   Thank you! ;)

    Thank you.  So, I understand that the video is in a different format.  Is it possible to change this on the camera?  I tried to download a program of online conversion, but it is very confusing and I'm getting nowhere.  I liked my D5000 and I'm so darn frustrated with my D5100 at this stage.  I just want to be able to download the video so that I can use it.  Ugh!   What do you recommend I do?  I need to convert all the videos so I can use it... and you know a good conversion site?

    I don't have any experience with these cameras, but perhaps the
    more info would help you find a solution that works for you.

    Yes, the video format is different. You could check the owner

    the video in a different format.

  • Import pictures using windows photo gallery

    Can someone tell me what I changed / hurt like when I import my pictures I get 4 copies of the same photo. I get a normal version, a copy of 'fat' "256 x 256" and a "Best Fit". "." Also, when you use the Windows Photo Gallery to import I see is more of the pictures to choose which ones to import and I am sure that this changed around the same time duplicates began.

  • My Windows Photo Gallery has incorrect time for good that my computer is correct. I know how to change the time, but wanted the exact time is displayed automatically when you scan photos etc as before.

    Time is incorrect in Windows Photo Gallery and I would like to do this automatically scanned early for photos instead of my change time.

    Hi Sardai,

    Unfortunately, this information is not always accurate. If you took some of your pictures in a different time zone, for example, the time recorded for these pictures could be incorrect by several hours. The camera can also be set to the wrong date and time. Or, if you're scanning photos, ta date will reflect the date that they have been digitized, not the date on which they were taken. All these anomalies can be adjusted manually.

    To change the date or time

    1. open Windows Photo Gallery by clicking on the Start button, all programs, and then clicking Windows Photo Gallery.

    2. If you do not see the details on the side of the window pane, click information on the toolbar to display it.

    3. click on the image you want to change.

    1. to select more than one picture, hold down the CTRL and click each picture you want to change.

    4. click on the date at the top of the details pane.

    5. click on the arrow next to the date and then click the correct date on the calendar.

    6. click on the time at the top of the details pane.

    7. Select the correct time.

     

    To adjust the time for pictures taken in a different time zone

    1. open Windows Photo Gallery by clicking on the Start button, all programs, and then clicking Windows Photo Gallery.

    2. right click on the image you want to change and then click on change time taken.

    To select more than one picture, hold down the CTRL and click each picture you want to change, and then click a picture when you are done.

    3. in the change to box, type the number of hours to change, or click the up or down arrow to select the number of hours. To make the new start time, type a minus sign (-) before the number.

    This other source had restrictions on what you can do with these photos, if she didn't have everything, it would occur in your my site of photos and not hidden in a place of wall paper or other than my pictures.

    They will usually have copyrights to join them, you will probably not be able to make copies to send or transfer to another computer.

  • How to delete a picture in Windows Photo Gallery tag files or specific files of photo files without deleting the image completely out of all of these places, leaving the image in one place vs. have in several places?

    I'm trying to manage my photos already imported and downloaded on my computer.  There is a master "All photos and videos" folder in the Windows Photo Gallery all in the top left of this program.  Below that is a folder "Images".  Below that are "Tags" with a certain number of 'labelled' folders below.  Lower in another main 'Images' folder with a folder of the yellow file beside him icon.  Here's this file, a number of other folder also named with the file yellow folder icon next to them as well.

    What I'm trying to do is manage all these photos and who want to keep a copy of an image in one of the folders of images with an icon of yellow folder next to him.  However, if I delete an image from anywhere in one of the places mentioned above, no matter which, a copy or copies of the image lies, the given image and all copies in one of the other place listed in the first subparagraph above are deleted and this specific photo is present ONLY in the recycling bin.

    How can I do what I want to do here?  I hope that's clear enough!

    Thanks a lot (someone)...

    Hi EKahn,

    When you delete a file from the library, you do not your computer delete it. If you delete a folder, photo library no longer displays images and videos that were in that folder, although the file remains on your computer.

    You can remove the folders that you have added to the Gallery of photos at any time, but you cannot remove files that are in the default Photo Gallery. Remove a folder prevents him from appearing in the photo gallery. If you delete a photo, it is deleted from your computer as if you deleted the images folder.
