Locked Re: Heic photo files #photos

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I wish I had ¡®the answer¡¯ for this anomaly. ?I do know what causes it. .heic photos are MAC Format. Why in the hell Mac came up with something that isn¡¯t sharable/viewable by others I¡¯ll never know ¨C I¡¯ve been a MAC-exclusive user since 1987.

All of the pics I take with my iPhone are .heic ¨C because they¡¯re Mac. And I usually have to screw around with copying/pasting and converting in order to share them with non-Mac users.

So, the answer to this ¡°why can¡¯t I see them¡­is they¡¯re Mac Format. The Answer to the problem, I dunno, other than spending time (on the Mac) converting them to a more conventional format (.jpeg, etc.)

One of my members uploaded some photos to her album that have the .heic extension. I could not see those photos at the group website...only a blank screen. I was assuming that IO Groups could only handle jpeg photos, but she told me she could see those photos in her album. I am using Windows 11 and MS Edge. So, is it my computer??

It depends on your browser and whatever extensions/add-ons it might have. If you browser cannot render the images, you won't see them.

Are you sure these images are in the Photos area? Or are they in Files? I thought groups.io wasn't allowing uploading of HEIC to Photos, but things may have changed on that front.
