Somehow I've changed something that hides my pix. When I go to Photo Gallery now, I see the thumbnails as a generic but with the picture data. How or what do I do to make it so that the pictures themselves show? thanks for any help

Post Scrip Print Settings

Jacko — 2010-01-18T21:46:55Z

I bought a Epson Stylus 1400 printer in June and have been using the Adobe Elements 6 program that came with the printer. I print all different size photos plus text. About a week ago a window has been showing up after I push the print button that says: 'some post script print settings (interpolation, calibration, encoding) will be ignored since you are printing to a non-post script printer' and now the text does not line up. The letters are distorted and it looks terrible. I just spent 4 hours on hold with adobe to have them tell me they don't deal with Adobe 6 anymore. Anybody have any suggestions?

JonnyDub — 2010-01-12T17:16:28Z

OK - what's the deal with 'Not enough memory or disk space to complete this operation or program files are corrupt ...' This continues to be a problem when I try to save my slide show (video) files. I know I have plenty of memory and I've removed and reinstalled Photo Story 3 and Windows Media Player several times. I know I'm not alone with this problem but what's the fix ?

Sending photos by email in Windows Live Photo Gallery

pugwashtizzie — 2009-12-29T19:03:02Z

I am using Windows 7 Professional and am unable to email images to send in Outlook 2007. When I select a photo (or photos) in Windows Live Photo Gallery and click E-Mail Outlook freezes and in the process of unfreezing (Control + ALT+ DELETE) I receive the following message: 'The operation failed because of network or other communications problems. Verify the connection and try again'. When this happens I am connected to the internet. Does anybody else have the same problem? Does anybody know how to fix it?

Advantages over Windows Media Center?

Rex — 2009-01-29T15:57:22Z

Hello, I wanted to say that I love this site. There is a ton of useful information here! I had a question and was wondering if some users could fill me in (I am a novice). I have been running Windows Media Center edition in my home for a while but mainly use it for photos and some music streaming. What would be the advantages of making the switch over to Windows Home Server? A friend of mine has been tinkering around with it and loves it. What features would make me switch?

Is Windows Live Photo Gallery networkable and multi-user friendly?

kmcgrail — 2009-01-21T19:32:50Z

Hello! I'm looking for software to catalogue/organize images offline that have been taken over many years at a public library. I'm looking for software that includes the ability to attribute IPTC tags to the images to facilitate easier and faster searches. Also, I need software that can be used in a network environment and that does not require multiple installations AND that can be used by multiple users. I've been researching this for a few days now and PicaJet Photo Organizer looks good. However, it says on their website that though multiple people can view/read the database, only one user at a time can make modifications to the content of the database. Since we mostly use the Windows XP platform at the library (some computers have the Vista OS installed on them), I'm thinking that Windows Live Photo Gallery should work on our network, but I'm also curious as to whether the software can store the catalogue offline and be viewed/used/modified by multiple users at the same time? Sincerely, K

Helpful Solution for Live Photo Gallery not Starting

Rex — 2009-01-29T16:04:33Z

Hello All, I recently ran into a problem where Live Photo Gallery would not start at all. No errors, no nothing...just wouldn't start! Short of doing a full uninstall and reinstall, I hunted around and found this solution. Just thought I would share it in case someone was having a similar problem.Basically, you need to tell Live Photo Gallery to rebuild the photo database.
