Help! My placed images aren't showing.

I'm placing low quality images and they're showing as either black boxes (high quality display performance) or lines (typical performance).

I have no idea how to fix this!

Which version of InDesign and OS?

Details of the file format and size would be helpful, do they open successfully in other applications such as Photoshop?

Hi Derek!

Sierra 10.12.6

Creative Cloud 2017.1

JPEG 324kb as an example (but I have about 30) opens in PS but has this warning.

I saved the image off dropbox.

Does this occur with all images, or this one or this batch?

If you select the image and check the details in the InDesign Links panel what does it state regarding effective resolution and ICC profile?
