chaos4499 198 Posted August 12, 2011 I just took some photos on a Canon Rebel XT and they are in the JPG format. This is a problem because I cannot view them or upload them. Is there anyway I can view them or convert them to JPEG? I have tried looking around on the interwebs (probably not well) and I could really use some advice/help.

ElectronicDrug 7496 Posted August 12, 2011 JPEG and JPG are the exact same..jpeg and .jpg are the exact same.The problem is something else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ctark 1983 Posted August 12, 2011 might have something in his Reg fucked up.Might not be mapping the .jpg extension the same as a .jpeg.alright as everyone else has said, just rename the .jpg to a .jpeg..if you do not see the file extension (ex: picture.jpg) then you have to enable file extentions, go to the menu bar in windows explorer, click: tools>folder options> view. Uncheck: Hide extensions for known file types.Now press apply, and ok. you should now see picture as picture.jpg, right click> rename rename to picture.jpeg.try to open, if it opens fine (I would guess probably with microsoft photo viewer or something similar) then you know it's just a file mapping issue. if it still doesn't open, right click the file (picture.jpeg) and click: open with.find something like "windows photo and fax viewer" OR "microsoft picture viewer" OR anything else that sounds like it would open a picture files, if you can't find anyhting, use paint.UNCHECK the box that says something like "open files with this extension in the future" or some shit like that. make sure it works first.get back to us on what happens, Ctark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UltaPonch 80 Posted August 12, 2011 You need to convert them into a .png, then convert them to a .gif, before you can convert them into a .psd, so that they can easily be exported to .jpeg. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paperwastage 0 Posted August 12, 2011 You need to convert them into a .png, then convert them to a .gif, before you can convert them into a .psd, so that they can easily be exported to .jpeg.you forgot something about making a screenshot, using a camera to take a pic of the monitor of the screenshot and uploading the photo again.... this process makes the picture clearer, as the camera does some tricks...Start -> search for "default programs"Click on Set AssociationsScroll down to .jpg or .jpeg (or whatever you want to change)right now, mine (for both) is set to Windows Photo Viewer. double click on the one you want to change, change it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
