Windows live photo gallery screensaver just empty?

Salvation for a few months now my screensaver windows photo gallery has just been going to blank it used to work and have done so for almost 2 years. I have redownloaded windows live photo gallery and still can't make it work, any help on this would be thank you very much.

You have problems with any other screen savers (this is VERY important) - even the slide show normal ones (if if you can have a different and wider than just this one problem screensaver Live Gallery - post if it is the case that we need to try a few different options than those offered or maybe at least some additional options)?  Is Aero active and selected - if not available, do?  Now never works or sometimes work (tell you it turns off suggesting it starts OK and then fails - I need to know if this is the case, and on how long it works before going empty)?  When you test (I am not sure that you can test it but if possible, it works or does nothing happen)?  When you say he fails to tell you absolutely everything, nothing happens when selected (which means that you can not select it) or do you mean it is still not listed as an option or you want to say when it should light it does not activate (and if so, whatever it happens to all of the error messages) (, or whatever)?

Go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / Event Viewer and look for any screensaver errors or maybe photo gallery (it should be some if it is not enabled). Here's how to use Event Viewer: http://www.petri.co.il/vista-event-viewer.htm.  Look in the sections of the system and applications.

I hope this helps to identify or solve the problem.  If this isn't the case, post back with the results, but if everything works fine (after trying the above) and there is no errors except this one screen saver, so we consult experts.

Please repost your question in the Windows Live Photo Gallery or Forums portal at:http://windowslivehelp.com/product.aspx?productid=20.  First check to see if your question has already been answered or if none of the articles help.  If this is not the case, go to the Forum and post your question there.  Experts in the photo gallery will be happy to help you.

Good luck!

  • Windows live photo gallery screensaver "folder I chose contains no pictures or videos."

    I don't know if it's the same problem, but windows live photo gallery screensaver gives me a message saying that the folder I chose contains no photos or videos.  But in fact, the record has a lot of photos and subfolders have thousands of photos.  This screensaver works fine on a xp computer that has essentally the same set of files.  Are there special issues with the Vista screen savers.

  • When you use Windows Live Photo Gallery SCREENSAVER, monitor off, regardless of power parameters. The power settings work with all the other screen savers.

    Windows Live Photo Gallery screensaver does not extinguish whatever my power settings.  This is the case with Windows Live Photo Gallery.  When you use any other screen saver, the screen turns off according to the way in which the power settings are defined.  It is quite frustrating because I prefer to use as my screen saver Windows Live Photo Gallery.  But he will stay indefinitely if I stop it manually.  Someone has any idea how to solve this problem?   Thank you.

  • Does not work my screensaver of windows live photo gallery

    I'm trying to implement a video screensaver for room computer Conference of our office to use for customers waiting for meetings. My operating system is Windows 7. I select the Saver screen and then winodws live Gallery option. I find the blockhouse containing my videos. I save all my options and then return to the zapodam. The small screen shows a preview of mini that works. However, when I select an excerpt of my screen becomes all white and nothing happens. When I tried based on apply and ok and wiating two minutes, I've specified as screensaver, it always loads just a blank screen and never play my video. He does the same for photos under Window Live Gallery - I can get the pictures to work and all the other screen savers to work just not the windows live gallery. I really want to use this option if I can use the video function. Please advise what I have wrong or need to do. Is there a certain format that videos must be? Help, please! Thank you

  • Windows live photo gallery: original photos lost the transfer to the new computer

    photos to the new computer, and the originals have not been transferred as im guessing they're saved in the software/program that cannot be transferred.

    If there is not a way to transfer original and edited photos to the new computer, is there a way to return all original with a single click, so that I can transfer the originals on my new computer?

    Thank you.

    Thank you, you saved my originals... I copy paste, but can not work how to connect my pictures changed to the originals so that I can click on my modified photos and click on 'back '.

    Thanks again

    ===========================================
    Sorry, but I don't have the exact solution for re - associate the
    originals with edited versions.  The only thing I would like to know
    to try would be to place the originals in the original Images
    folder on the new system.

    Maybe... I say just that maybe if you copied the photo gallery
    exclusive database of the old system and used it to replace
    the database on the new system. (Just copy and paste the file in)
    the appropriate on the new system folder, and when you see
    ... dialog box you want to replace? with? Select Yes.

    Also... you could instead of replace your new database...
    rename it... Pictures.OLD for example. So if the replacement
    do not re - associate files... you can remove the replacement
    and rename the OLD version in what it was and the Gallery
    must be as it was before the change.

    Depending on the version of your photo gallery might be the database
    Pictures.PD5, Pictures.pd6, Pictures.pd7...

    The path to the version of Win XP is:

    C:\Documents and Settings\ > user name<\Local>
    Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Photo Gallery\
    Pictures.PD4, Pictures.pd5 or Pictures.pd6

    Windows Vista:

    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\
    Windows Photo Gallery\Pictures.pd4 or pd5 pd6

    Windows 7:

    Windows\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\
    Windows Live Photo Gallery\Pictures.pd6

    (Sorry, but I'm not sure of the path in Windows 8 but if you)
    do a search for PD6 PD7, you should be able to find it.

    The former article is a user experience
    with the shifting of the database... maybe it would offer a few ideas:

  • Fault of Windows Live Photo Gallery?

    I just edited a few photos in Windows Live Photo Gallery, and despite an economy of message is to save the changes, when I try and find the image, it has completely disappeared. This feature has always worked and I am devastated pretty that I can't find these aas images that they are for a college course. Any help would be appreciated. They are not in the trash.

    It is a XP forum... If you're running XP?

    In any case...

    This has been spread recently and is apparently related
    at McAfee. Mounting causes photos become hidden.

    The files are not missing... they are hidden.  Try changing the
    next parameter and the photos should reappear.

    Windows XP: Show hidden files

    Reach... Control Panel / folder Options / View tab.
    ... To check "Show the hidden files and folders" / apply / OK.

    Windows 7 - show hidden files

    When the photo thumbs reappear... they can look washed out...
    to clear this up... right click on a photo or a group or a
    folder and choose... Properties, uncheck the box. 'Hidden '.
    Apply / OK.

  • I can't put my wallpaper with an image of Windows Live Photo gallery.

    I am currently using Windows XP sp3, and whenbever I'm trying to set my wallpaper with an image of Windows Live Photo Gallery, the image will be there for a few minutes then goes to blue screen. I can not change to any other image from those available or set it to any other image from the photo gallery.  I tried to do a system restore and my old picrure Office will be there, but whenever I try to change to another is the same thing. Is there anyone that cn offers a solution to this problem?

    I had the same problem and just think about it. The image must be saved in the folder "my pictures." Right-click of your screen and go down to "Properties" there, press the 'Desktop' tab and click on the 'Browse' button and select your image in the menu. After you have finished click the 'Settings' tab and click on the "Advanced" button, which will bring up a new window, under the section "compatibility, select the"restart the computer before applying the new display settings' option. " Apply then hit and your image should appear as background.

  • My Windows Live Photo Gallery has been accidentally removed from

    (continue from above) to my Vista computer as well as 2 000 images.  I found online that I had to load Windows XP Service Pack 2, before I could reinstall/restore my Windows Live Photo Gallery.  Why did you download an XP service pack 2 on a Vista computer.  Didn't want to screw up more than it already is?  Help please if anyone knows how I can recover my photo library program I would appreciate your help.  Thank you

    Photo Gallery does not store the image files, it just reads the.  It's like a DVD player: give him the drive.

    Even without Photo Gallery, all your image files is still in your photo folder (or anywhere where you keep your image files).

  • Can't save editing changes in Windows Live Photo Gallery

    First of all, let me apologize if this isn't the right forum for this question.  I arrived to the music and Photos, but now is under maintenance contract.  So here's my problem:

    I just started using Windows Live Photo Gallery and I have a problem to save my changes of photo editing.  I get "an error prevents photo library to save the Photo.  I look for the time past in the help section and cannot find a solution.

    I would appreciate anyone help how to solve this problem.

    Thank you very much, lifesabeach (Gina)

    Gina,

    In addition to what Brian asked;  You have everything installed third-party software may have come with your camera (Kodak software, for example)?  This error can occur because of conflicts that exist with Windows Photo Gallery and some third party applications.  If you do not have some software like that, and have a way to re - install Pleae try to uninstall and see if you still get the error in the photo gallery.  Thank you.
