Hi everyone,
I recently noticed that Tonfotos no longer seems to like my photos in HEIC format. All the older photos work fine but starting in December 2024 most of the photos in HEIC format don’t have thumbnails and when I try to open them I get the message “Image is corrupted”. Some without thumbnail do open but lack their metadata. All of the photos can be opened without problem using the mac preview and the problem persists on local as well as external hard drives.
Interestingly, only photos taken with my iPhone 15 are affected, the photos taken with my girlfriends iPhone 14 work just fine (she also uses HEIC).
I read that HEIC can be problematic on windows computers but I couldn’t find any reports with problems on Mac.
Any ideas what’s the problem here and how to fix it (other than converting everything to jpg)?
