Motorola Droid Razr :: Cannot Open Downloaded Photos
Dec 1, 2011
When I download photographs to my PC from the Droid Razr and attempt to open them I receive an "invalid image" notice. I have tried Picasa, Windows Media Manager and Adobe Acrobat, all unsuccessfully. The three programs open other .jpg photos successfully. I can successfully email the pictures from the Razr and then open but cannot open after a USB cable download. A downloaded photo file which I cannot open is attached.
I have Jelly Bean, Google Music Play and all my CD's stored up in Google Music through my PC. Somehow, I have downloaded two albums to my phone, at least Music Play in the phone says they are on the device, the phone.Where are they? And how can I see them, or delete them? How can I assure they go on the SD card and I'm not filling up the remaining native storage in the phone?I've used My Computer to browse the files in the phone storage and on the SD, I can't find the albums.
I downloaded Motocast to my new RAZR. However, all of my document files have a question mark in front of them and I cannot open them on my phone. Is there something more that I need to do in order to open my documents?
The stock camera app on my Droid Razr Maxx will no longer open. I have had ICS for several weeks without issue. It was yesterday that the camera stopped working.
I select the camera icon and the screen blanks like it is going to open, but it does not. I come back to the original screen where the camera icon is located.
I have cleared the cache. I have performed a full factory reset. Still no camera. I also tried downloading a third party camera app, and it will not open, due to a camera error. Don't remember the exact words in the error message.
Bottom line, the camera no longer works. I still have my photos, and I can view them using my gallery.
I can get my calendar to open with a voice command. But is there a way (or an app) to actually get it to make an appointment (such as: Meet John on Decemebver 29th at 10am) with just voice commands.
I need to export a few photos from my RAZR to my 2011 mac pro... The computer reconizes the phone but can't figure out how to export them. I thought i did as it was syncing but a message popped up saying the photos were not the right format or something like that... Phone is plugged in using USB?
Using win7. Downloaded Motocast from website. When it is opened the motocast icon appears in taskbar but no program. When I open my music and try to configure set up motocast on phone it does not recognize my computer. It keeps saying that I must download motocast to computer.
whenever I open Chrome on my phone and choose bookmarks, by default it brings me to the Verizon Bookmarks (which it won't even let me delete). Is there anyway I can get the phone to open to my bookmarks by default instead of Verizon's? Extra points if someone can tell me how to delete Verizon's bookmarks permanently.
So, when using most camera apps, the EXIF data (specifically Date Taken) is not filled in for any picture taken with this phone. Is there a way to enable this field? I have tried at least 4 different apps and was hoping the ICS upgrade would do it, but no love. What is up with this major failure?
With all the digital media in my life, I have automated a lot of processes to organize and make things consistent, so when I find something that makes the job harder, I really loathe it.
I am wondering about the speed potential of the Razr. I am not to concerned about having 4g at this time, my primary use of my current Droid (D1) is so I can have my photo albums with me and organized the way i need them to be (that's why I will not get an Iphone) when I go to conventions as I need to be able to go through them with vendors. My current issue with the D1 is its slow response time when going through the albums and apps, how do you think the Razr is going to perform when dealing with photo albums and opening and closing pictures in a quick manor. The lagging is irritating when most of the vendors I deal with have Iphones and can go through the pictures a lot quicker then I can.
How and or what do you use to Sync Photos from Razr Maxx to a Windows PC?? Also can you Sync both ways? I have photos on my Phone that I would like to find a simple way to sync with my PC, and of course I have some photos that I would also like to Sync with me phone.
I moved photos manually from the internal storage to the SD card and now when viewing in My Gallery the photos appear to be stamp size instead of screen size
I thought it was saving pictures sent in text messages to the SD card. After all it says it is saving to SD card rather than phone internal storage. But it isn't. None of the photos are on the external SD card and they do not appear when I attempt to move the files under settings-storage-move to SD card. I noticed there is a slight difference in the path names of the camera and Handcent....the camera has the sdcard-ext in the path and Handcent does not have the ext portion in the path. However when I try to type the path into where to save them, it tells me invalid path. how to save texted photos to the external SD card?
Recently I have been unable to view my photos successfully on my laptop. It has been happening for several weeks now...When I transfer the photos to my laptop via USB (before you ask, I have tried as USB Mass Storage, PC MODE, and Windows Media Sync) and try opening them, I get the message 'Window Photo Viewer can't open this picture because the file appears to be damaged, corrupted, or is too large.' I just now figured out today how to get the Motocast application installed and running, and it synced up ~400 pictures from my phone to laptop.
However again, when I try viewing any of them on my laptop, I get the message. I have been emailing the photos from my phone, but for some reason that stopped working today also. I go to the photo gallery and do a multi select>Share>Email, and the draft is created. I see the photos attached, put in my email address, but the email never sends...it just pops up with an orange triangle next to the subject and says Send Action canceled. Not sure what all information is needed...software is updated, is a RAZR MAXX, my laptop is Windows 7. About 65 of the photos/videos appear to be in Internal Storage and the rest are on sD card.
I just bought my wife the Razr Maxx HD phone. She had an HTC Thunderbolt with a 32gb microSD card containing music and photos. So, when we got her new phone, I put that microSD card into it. The phone found the music instantly, but it did not find any of the photos on the microSD card. I was able to find the photos on the card through the file explorer app on the phone located in a DCIM folder, but I cannot figure out how to get the phone to "see" and upload them to the phone's library.
The My Gallery app on the Razr/Razr Maxx automatically chooses photographs to display on the opening screen of My Gallery. Some of these photos are of contact photos of people I don't want to look at all the time such as business associates. I would prefer to replace the photos of my choosing such as pictures of my family, friends , vacation etc.
Is there any way to re-select the photos that are displayed on the opening My Gallery screen?
I have a couple of problems with My Music. When connecting to my computer (iMac) over wi-fi or 3g I can access the files and stream without a problem but recently I decided to download an album to my phone and although it showed all 10 songs downloaded in the notifications bar, only 2 songs appeared in the app. I tried repeating the process, again it was downloading for a while and showed all as done, but nothing new appeared in the album. I checked the location of the files and they're there - really no idea what the problem could be. I rebooted the phone - nothing.
I noticed that some of the files are mp3 and some m4a but in both types there's more than 2 files so compatibility rather unlikely. The music app is incredibly slow, even when playing files from the phone, not over the internet. I posted a separate discussion on the phone being really slow in comparison with iOS5, but I notice it especially with My Music. Does anyone else have the same problem and is there a solution? Something in settings maybe? I'm new to Android so it's likely no answer will be to basic.
I purchased the Moto Elite Sliver because my Plantronics Pro HD would drop its bluetooth every single time a call was answered or placed. I did a little research and found it may be related to a conflict with the 2.0 headset and 4.0 phone. Moto Sliver is BT 3.0 and was working great until this week. Now every single time a call is disconnected, the headset disconnects and reconnects. Reboots galore, problem still exists. Uninstall/reinstall Motospeak, problem still exists. Sometimes the bluetooth will not connect at all (reboot required). The Droid RAZR Maxx and the Elite Sliver are supposed to be state of the art MOTOROLA, I make a living with my phone and headset.
I have WiFi enabled. Often when I am near a wireless access point, my RAZR M still uses 4G. It's as if the WiFi is going to sleep when I power the screen off, but it doesn't wake up again. Turning WiFi off and on makes it reconnect.It seems to happen mostly when I'm at home, where I also use the Motorola flip stand with "ESP" smart charger, and a NetGear dual-band wireless router/access point.
Brand new Car Dock and Razr. Installed and all good working no problems for first 2 days,then when I dock the RAZR it does not change to the car navigation screen or start to charge.Power light on the power cable. RAZR charges and transfers data via other cables.
