Why don’t WordPress JPGs display on iPhones, iPods or iPads?

This is what you can do when your images don’t show up in WordPress on your iPhone, iPod or iPad:

If you save you JPG as a progressive JPG with scans (ie 3 scans) iPhone, iPods and iPads won’t be able to render the image on your WordPress site.

There is an easy way to fix this though. You can resave your JPG as a baseline optimized JPG. After doing this everything should work properly and you will be able to see your JPG photos again.
