Hello,

It looks like an image was pasted into one of your cards as a raw Base64 data string instead of being saved as a standard image file (like picture.png). This sometimes happens when you copy and paste images directly from certain websites or other apps.

Because the file name is thousands of characters of raw code, macOS rejected it for being too long.

Please try these steps to fix the issue:

1. In the Anki browser, paste the following into the search bar: “data:image/png;base64” (including the quotation marks).
2. Click on the card that appears in the results. You might see a broken image icon or a massive block of text in one of your fields. Please delete it.
   If you do not see the text immediately, click into the field where the image should be and open the HTML editor by pressing Cmd + Shift + X on your Mac (or by clicking the < > icon above the text box). Look for the giant block of code starting with <img src="data:image/png;base64… and delete the entire tag.

Hey when I put in the QIDs it just shows up as a blank screen instead of the cards
