My photo won't open. It just shows an exclamation mark. When looking into my photo the "g" has been dropped from "jpg". What happened and how do I fix it? ie, IMG_20160314_125230465_HDR~2.jp

If it’s affecting multiple photos, you can repair the Photos Library. Quit Photos/iPhoto, re open while holding Option and Command, then select the option to Repair.

Hope that helps out and that’s all it needed.
