I will try to explain the best i can. My main OS is Windows 10 but i have Linux Mint on a USB to try out. I use both OS. I put all my obits on a USB on Windows. I then went on Linux and put these obits in a folder, these obits on Linux off that USB only shows text how do i fix this? I tried to add a screenshot, i kept error ( file is to big ). I will try to show you. example= shows only ABC obit name Thanks Charles
What are obits? Or what is an obit? I do not understand that statement at all. Adding punctuation would help, maybe. Do you have error messages? Usually error messages are one line, cut and paste the message here. That may help figuring out what is wrong.
Sorry i should have explained much better. I have obituary,s of passed away Family And Friends in a folder on the laptop desktop theres near 100 obituary,s when i go to open one i can only get text it wont show grave stone pictures or other pictures in that obituary. I tried the copy and paste that didnt work very well. I will take a screenshot of my error when i try to send a screenshot of example obituary. I must be doing something wrong. Iam the same Chuck Davis i had to make accounts on both OS Linux and Windows. Thank,s Chuck
OK, it does not matter what files those are, but it does matter what program made the files. What program do you use to view the files on Windows? Is the same program available on Linux? Are the pictures separate files or embedded in the obituary file? Is the text the text you expect to find in that file? So only the images are missing, otherwise the file is OK? The screenshot you included looks like it is error from when you tried to upload a picture, not the error you are experiencing on your obituary files when looking at them on Linux. Start a terminal window on Linux, and issue the commands below to see what type of files those obituaries are. Paste the results here in CODE tags. Code: ls -lh /mnt/media/stick/ file /mnt/media/stick/ where you replace the /mnt/media/stick with the directory where those files are located on your computer. A terminal can be started from Application menu or pressing Control-Alt-T, if these do not work find how your GUI works and use those methods to start a terminal.
In your case, Code: ls -lh ~/Desktop/obits file ~/Desktop/obits/* In addition to that, what would help is answers to questions: What program do you use to view the files on Windows? Are the pictures separate files or embedded in the obituary file? Is the text the text you expect to find in that file? So only the images are missing, otherwise the file is OK?
