• Windows Photo Viewer displays automatically when I plug iPod

  I have an iPod Touch 4 G and I really hate it when the Photo Viewer appears. I always have to press the windows key and tap on the app, I've been on (ex. Google Chrome). It is not a big problem but it is a very annoying problem.

  Hi Vince,.

  You can use autoplay to determine what happens when you connect a device to your PC. For example, set it so that each time that you connect a storage card, the opens the Photos app, and you select which photos and videos to import.

  You may need to disable multimedia transport of your camera before of the AutoPlay control can find it.

  (a) define the basic options: view the laptop settings, tap or PCs and devices, and then tap or click AutoPlay.

  (b) a set of advanced options: open the Control Panel, press or click hardware and sound, and then press or click on Autorun.

  I hope this helps. If you need help with Windows, let us know and will be happy to help you.

• Why windows media player displays only the names of original files?

  Windows Media Player only shows the original file names that can be confusing if I changed the name of a file. The name of the file (usually audio files) is correct in Windows Explorer, but in the component list of WMP, it's often the old file name. Why is this and what can I do about it? Advice would be appreciated. TA. Kevin.

  What the file type of these music files (MP3, WMA, WAV...)?

  WMP usually displays the title tags of the music file, which is independent of the file name. However, WMP always displays the current file name in the path column of the file, which can be activated by right clicking on a column header and select choose columns.

• I have problem rotation tiff file in the Windows Photo Viewer.

  The last time when you use Windows XP, it is ok, but after upgrading to Win7 have problem rotation of files tiff using standard Windows photo viewer or Windows Live Photo Gallery. This happens to the files without administrator rights. Understand that the last time WinXP also had this problem but it had been fixed. Any resolution for Windows 7?

  If I understand correctly, you cannot rotate the tiff file in the Windows Photo Viewer. I suggest you follow the troubleshooting steps to check if this may help.

  1. don't you make changes on the computer before the show?
  2 is the issue limited to the tiff files?
  3. you receive an error message on the computer?

  Photo Viewer Windows can only view .jpg and .jpeg, .tif and .tiff, .png, .gif, .bmp and DIBs, .wdp file types.
  For more information, see this link:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/understanding-picture-file-types

  Method 1:
  You can take all the permissions in the folder of tiff files and check.
  Here are the steps to change the ownership and permissions of files and folders:

  a. right click on the file or folder, click Propertiesand then click the Security tab.

  b. click Advancedand then click the owner tab.

  c. click change, and then do one of the following:

  · To change the owner to a user or group that is not listed, click other users and groups , in area enter the object name to select (examples), type the name of the user or group, and then click OK.

  · To change the owner to a user or group that appears in the area of change of ownership to , click the new owner.

  d. If you want to take ownership of the contents of the folder, select the checkbox replace the owner of sub containers and objects .

  e. click OKand then click Yes when you receive the following message is displayed:

  You are not allowed to read the contents of directory folder name. Do you want to replace the the directory permissions with permissions granting you full control?

  All permissions will be replaced if you click Yes.
  
  Note folder_name is the name of the folder you want to take charge.

  f. click OKand then reapply the permissions and security settings that you want for the folder and its contents.

• Windows Photo Viewer shows the files blank JPEG thumbnails (inside folders) poster white icon, already tried a lot of Solutions - please help! S.O.S.

  Dear all,

  I have this problem:

  

  All JPEG files are normal, I tried to open with the help of Adobe Photoshop CS5. But if I use it to watch my files, it takes too long to load.

  This is the case if I try to open them using the Windows Photo Viewer:

  

  It's when I try to open it with Adobe Photoshop CS5:

  

  So the file is fine, they are non-empty JPEG.

  The difficulties I've tried before posting on the forum:

  - Fix it with Microsoft to photo viewer

  Fix It for animals works well and could not find any problem though, so nothing is fixed.

  - Removal 'External event AMD' Service

  Nothing change

  - Removal of color for the monitor profiles

  Nothing to change also

  - Updated all the drivers and windows

  Nothing change

  - Boot in Safe Mode

  The thumbnails are displayed correctly and "Windows Photo Viewer" display my images perfectly well BUT...

  - Start in Normal Mode with all the Services of persons with disabilities (except Microsoft)

  The problem happens again, that the thumbnails are blank and the images also.

  - Cleaning disc (with checked "thumbnails")

  The problem still exists

  

  - Set programs "Default" for the Windows Photo Viewer

  The problem still exists

  - Run SFC/scannow From The Command Line

  The problem still exists, and the SFC somehow told me that my Windows is fine

  

  - Removal of hidden miniature manual

  The problem still exists

  - Windows Live Essentials installation and use the 'Photo Gallery'

  Photo Gallery crashes all the time after asking if I want to associate files "JXR" or not, but I'm not on this topic, but this does not solve the problem.

  I tried every step, I have found on various types of forum, but not the last magic: Reinstall Windows, I really want to solve this problem without cleaning Windows installation if possible, and I'm so in love with "Windows Photo Viewer" because it's simple, fast, and it is very precious to me. I tried free viewer and FastStone Image Viewer but is a bit complicated, controls are small and it always comes out in full screen, I need this so baaad.

  My computer is:

  A10-7800 Kaveri AMD processor

  RAM 8GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 black

  Western Digital 1 TB Caviar Black hard drive

  Motherboard ASRock FM2A88X +.

  Power supply Corsair VS550

  OS: Windows 7 64-bit

  Thanks in advance :) I really want this wrong, please...

  Dear Ramesh,

  I thank very you much for your time to help me, after tumbling around with other solutions, windows finished in "the RPC server is blahblah" thing a bit, then I reinstalled everything from the ground up and the problem disappeared... I don't know what happened to the previous window, I am now using the same drivers, same software, except perhaps the earlier had too many junks (I think this is the classic problem with windows, after sometimes he collected too and begins to act dumb)

  It seems that the problem came, neither windows nor the drivers... But too bad it should remain as an "Unsolved Mystery": P

  Anyway thanks, see again you and Merry Christmas and happy new year to you

• Problems to tiff in the Windows Photo Viewer files

  I'm having a problem with a multi-page tif 1 MB file in Windows 7 with the Windows Photo Viewer, but can open the file on any of our workstations Windows XP with Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. The error I get is:

  "Windows Photo Viewer cannot open the image because the file seems corrupted, altered, or is too large."

  I installed the Windows TIFF IFilter, and we can get a preview of this same tif file in Outlook 2007 on Windows 7 computers. Just can't understand why Windows XP is not a problem but because of Windows 7.

  Thank you.

  You have great people skills. Keep it up.

  Have a nice day and thanks again for your help.

• Windows Photo Viewer cannot open *.tif files

  Hi Windows Photo Viewer don't open no * tif files on computers Dell desktop running Windows Pro 8.1 and Windows 7 Professional.

  Do not use a drive.

  Tried system restore, but does not solve the problem.

  Windows posted a temporary fix (https://support.microsoft.com/en-sg/kb/2635500), but recommended "If you are not severely affected by this problem, we recommend you wait for the next software update, which will include this fix."

  Windows finally gets out the permanent fix for users?  Still waiting.

  The patch in KB2635500 appears directed at problems with files TIF MultiPage (usually of the faxes).  Do you do business with?  You get the error message that is mentioned in the article?

  If this isn't the case, what exactly happens when you try to open a single TIF file (non-multi-site)?  Is it just does not open or you get an error message?  If the latter, what is the full text of the error message?

  It is possible that the Windows System File Checker can solve this problem.  Open an elevated command prompt (right click > run as administrator) and enter the command:

  sfc/scannow

  See https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929833

  Or you could abandon the Windows Photo Viewer and use the much more versatile application free IrfanView: http://www.irfanview.com/

• Windows 7 photo viewer broken by the software update of Intel Corporation display published February 2012

  I tried the optional "Corporation - display - Intel (r) Intel's HD Graphics" offered by Windows Update.  The patch installed properly.  I also installed all the patches from Microsoft in the most recent update at the same time - my system is up to date with all patches from Microsoft for Windows 7.

  The Intel driver is identified as "Display Intel Corporation software update released in February 2012" with driverid = 20470193 (but doesn't link to winqual included).

  After I rebooted the system, I noticed that the Photo Viewer Windows 7 (Microsoft utility provided for the display of image files) was broken.  It would display usually several images, but after a few, trying to go to the next image would cause him to hang, with an error message and an error logged in the system log files.  The error logged has this information:

  The failed igdumd64.dll DLL is part of the Intel driver patch.

  I was able to revert to the version of the prior pilot with no problem using Device Manager (you cannot remove this hotfix with the usual methods to remove a patch provided by Windows Update, because it's a device driver).

  Once I have returned to the older version of the driver (with the old DLL) flaws with Photo Viewer problems went away.

  I don't use many intensive graphics applications, but I would not be surprised if this driver breaks things.

  I can't find any documentation on what, if any, problem known this updated driver is supposed to fix.  But he clearly presents problems that did not exist with the driver components, it replaced.

  I fully understand that driver development is a challenge, but this driver was clearly not enough tested if it succeeds in breaking simple things like photo viewer.

  The driver in question is provided by Intel and the same update available on their web site.  I could certainly follow your collective advice and completely uninstall the graphics driver (which unfortunately would my system using generic VGA graphics, completely ruin my desktop display) and then download the driver from the Intel web site, but I sincerely doubt that the outcome would be different.  Returning to the already installed driver seems to have "fixed" the problem with the update.  And I scored the driver Intel "fix" hidden in Windows Update, so that I won't be tempted to install again, since it's apparently a bad solution to a problem not specified.

  For what it's worth, the system in question is a HP Compaq 8200 "CMT", which has a motherboard Intel manufactured with integrated graphics Intel hi-def.  I don't have a graphics component snap.  Graphics drivers who settled on the system worked fine for my needs.

  Intel has released an updated version of this driver in February 2011, which, at that time, caused a wave of reports (many of them in this forum) driver Internet Explorer 9, in break with defects occurring all the same Intel supplied DLL. The driver that came with my system seems to have had this problem.

  If I was smart enough to understand how to report directly to the Intel they gave Microsoft a bad driver, I would, but as the component that is broken by the pilot part of a standard software for Windows 7 from Microsoft, I chose the problem here.  I'm sure that most of the Windows 7 users that could see a similar problem will seek a solution here, and for me, the solution was to return the driver (using the same procedures that were presented as the solution to the previous February 2011 broken Intel HD graphics driver "fix").
