DigeratiPrime Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Check the file and folder permissions, make sure your user has at least 'read' rights to those files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamohd70 Posted January 18, 2009 Author Share Posted January 18, 2009 permissions are alright.Only recent .jpg files are the problem; older .jpg files can be manipulated without problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripredacus Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 It sounds like an ownership issue? Try to change ownership on a file to your account and see if that lets you view them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamohd70 Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) Yes permission was the problem . i had to change the permission to individual files for it to work.Thank you all for the help.
