Q: Corrupted Photos / Coloured bars on photos.
Hi,
Recently I have been transferring Photos from an Iphone 6 (but that were taken on a second generation Iphone) onto a new macbook using the Photos application. However, around 600 of these photos (especially the old ones) failed to transfer, throwing error -9337. I then attempted to manually retrieve these using a windows computer. This succeeded more, with many of the photos being retrievable, however, around 100 of these photos, seem to be only partially complete. These photos have coloured bars on them, the colour of the bar is dependant on the background color of that particular photo, and it seems like there is simply missing data. These boxes or bars take up a significant portion of the photo, and I don't know whether the photos are simply corrupted or if there is any way to retrieve them. I have attached a screenshot of one such photo. The strange thing about these photos is that often the thumbnail will be complete, and the original picture on the iphone from which I am importing these files, seems to be always complete, it is just in importing the photos to a computer that there are problems.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
