what are my pictures doing?

Hi ladies, this morning I was looking threw some recent photos I took, and to my surprise, when I view the photo, its a totally different photo? They are all #, so when I'm looking for a certain photo, I have to "preview" till I find it, cause when I look at them as "thumbnails" it is something totally different ? it isnt doing it with all photos, just some, that I've noticed so far? Does anyone know what the deal is with this??
I'm thinking it might be time for a new computer maybe, but I dont know where I'm going to find the $$$. Any one need their hair done? lol I do it on the side
Thanks, Nichole

Oh man... I have never heard of that! And, I need my hair done in the worse way... but that would be quite the trip!!!

I hope someone with better computer skills comes along soon =)

That has happened to me before... just one folder on my PC laptop. I never figured out why or how to fix it though. I might have tried to figure it out if it were my all my pictures, but just one folder wasn't a big deal, just frustrating. Sorry I can't be of any help.

That has happened to me before, too.
I had to force Windows to rebuild the thumbnail file. To do that, select all of the photos in the file, then right-click. Choose "Refresh Thumbnail."

Hope it works for you, too

I think this can also happen in Windows if you have a large number of images in one folder. I've forgotten the number but it is many hundreds. If you do have a huge number in one folder, try splitting the images into a couple of separate folders and see if that helps.

man oh man, I have been putting all my pics in folders by month, now that I have 2 kids it's just easier, and I don't think that there are too many, but who knows my computers a few years old lol.....I did the refresh thumbnail and it seemed to work, you gals are truly the best lol what would I do without you? Cry more and be bald lol
THANKS!!!
