When I look in my viewfinder, I do not see an image of my subject.

I am new to photography and think that I must be missing something simple.  When I turn on my shot of power in shooting mode, I see only a bright square on a black background.  By pressing "disp" adds or removes the symbols around the edge of the field, but no picture of my subject.

lol your welcome if you select "problem solved" that will end this thread... it worked and it should be repeated until the shutter relaxes

    }

    Because the image shows according to Java. They could be overlapped by other windows or is reduced to a minimum is not something that Java checks in this method.

    If you want to make visible by the user you will need to use something like:

    if(TestShowing.this.getExtendedState() == Frame.ICONIFIED) {
      TestShowing.this.setExtendedState(JFrame.NORMAL);
    }
    TestShowing.this.toFront();
    

    But make sure it is visible to the user would require native lib I think (or take a screenshot and are looking for your setting here).

  • When I m showing police area I do not see the type fonts? Why? or why I can do to fix this?

    When I m showing police area I do not see the type fonts? Why? or why I can do to fix this?

    Mijail,

    I think that it can fix:

    Open system preferences and go to accessibility. Then select display in the source on the left side list, then check the box transparency reduced.

    It was introduced in this #15 post by TheUlser:

    https://forums.Adobe.com/message/6854594#6854594

    It has been described on this page from Adobe:

    http://capitalmacservice.com/font-preview-working-Illustrator-CS-5-Yosemite-fix/

    It may also depend on the monitor, as shown in the message #29 by Loncar in the same thread.

    Of course, this also affects other things so there can be a downside to it, of course, the influences of transparency reduced the appearance of other things, but so far nobody complained disadvantages.

  • When I open an image in Photoshop, I can not see the file.  The thumbnail on the right, but I do not see the image on the work area. I use Windows 8

    When I open Photoshop CS6, I can't see the image.  The thumbnail is visible on the right side and the work area shows file information, but not picture.  I've updated PS, my driver. The same goes for the jpg or RAW.

    Make sure that your drivers are up-to-date. Try to disable the GPU acceleration in preferences then restart Photoshop.

  • I would like to re - import photos into LR cc but do not appear when I hit import.  When I look through the viewfinder, they are always present.  How to spend it?

    I want to import folders of photos in LR, but they do not appear on the list of the source, although it is on the hard drive. How does it evolve?

    Thank you.

    [Ask in the correct forum allows... Left non-technical Forum Lounge for forum specific program... MOD]

    These images are already in the catalog. Select all the photos in the section catalogue library, hit the-key to bring up the filter bar, select the text option in the upper part, select file name then contains all and type in one of the file names. It should show this image file.

    This image appears as in the LR catalog?

  • I'm on lightroom CC 2015.1.1 review. When I look for to upgrade it does not show the current revision 2015.2.1. It's as if it's not available?

    Why can't I see the latest revision of LR CC 2015.2.1? I'm on 2015.1.1 review

    Thanks, but I tried everything what with no luck. I had a great support from Adobe where the technician had to delete some files, and then reinstall the latest version 2015.3.  That being said, thank you for your reply help.

  • Why I not see the image even when I'm logged in as a user as when I am logged as a tool?

    When I'm logged in as an administrator, all the sites I visit look as they should. But when I connect as long as user many of these sites don't look like just like thay - logotypes and other "layout" - things do not exist.

    I tried updating Java and Flash, but without success.

    See only the red and blue font in the text, but the buttons are missing etc etc. Very dull!

    I use Windows XP Pro, Mozilla Firefox 11.0, latest Java... Is there anything, that I have or what has changed when Firefox has been updated between 9 and 10 and 11?

    When you sign in as a user, I assume that you are actually connect to a separate Windows XP account with limited privileges. Looks like there could be something funny going on in the settings of FIrefox for this Windows account.

    Follow the instructions for how to create a new Firefox profile (which will create a new set of parameters of Firefox, bookmarks, data, etc.) and see if it works better there: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles

    If so, you can also retrieve important drawn from the old profile if you want - just follow the last section of the same article from the link above. I hope this helps!

  • I do not see my images when exporting to HTML

    For some strange reason, my images are just mark-up when I export the page I'm working to HTML

    Once I have download the file on the site it is fine but I don't know how to get the pictures back locally.

    Can someone tell me please in the right direction?

    Export the site in html format, you should get the assets/images folders and these will include the content of the page.

    If existing exported site does not show the files, please try to export as html in a new folder and check.

    Also, after export if you view the page locally in the browser then it should show up the images if the export is performed correctly.

    Thank you

  • I do not see the image when I layer 2 images

    I try to layer 2 in PS JPEG files and tried to open the 2 files and copy / paste it and also tried to drag and drop.  A new layer is created, but I do not see the image so that I can resize.  Went through all the tutorials and answers to similar questions but no luck.  Tired - I'm sure this must be a very simple thing to do.  Thank you.

    I figured well tones to be involved, but with a jpg that wouldn't be a problem anyway.

    What did you do for troubleshooting so far?

    Restoration of preferences after checking all the presets custom like stocks, models, brushes etc. have been saved can be a good starting point:

    Place the cursor over an image and a pencil appears on the side. Click on it and you will get the options including one to change the width and alignment. This seems to be the only option currently.
