Having trouble with Aperture images in a slideshow in iMovie

I've searched for answers to this but can't seem to find out what I'm doing wrong....
I'm trying to put together a slideshow in iMovie with my images from Aperture. They look horrible, color is way off and they're grainy. It was my understanding that iMovie uses the preview images from Aperture for making the movie so I have my settings in Aperture set to the best quality for previews. Is that right? Is there something else I should be doing?
Thanks for any help.

No, thats the right way I do it with my images. I use iMovie 09 and the preview size of my iLife previews are set to 1680 pixel. I do mostly some slideshows in iMovie for displaying on the web and for iPhone, so the output from iMovie will be most times at 480 pixel wide. The colors are fine and images look best as in Aperture.
What I found sometimes is, some outwashed colors - unsaturated - after I export my movie from iMovie. This comes when I use other settings for exporting the movie than the presets for iPhone or Apple TV. The same behavoir did I recognize when exporting a movie from Final Cut Express or Keynote. This behavoir may be outdated in Snow Leopard, because Quicktime X should use Colormanagement the first time.

    I am new to Mac and am having trouble up loafing images from my pictures folder to photography sites and Facebook. Some of the saved images are accessible, while others are not, ( they are light colored and cannot be uploaded) I am not saving them any differently.

    Hi Robodisko,
    Thanks for your prompt reply...... 
    I often proof my work in preview then edit images in photoshop and rename from there.  The dsc images are renamed to correlate the name of the class etc.  i.e. dcs_001 is saved as the file name required 7A.jpeg etc.
    The file names are required to correlate what is what and so on..........

  • Having trouble with spry image slide show

    Im new to dw and i inserted a image slide show into my index.htm file, it works fine when i preview it in dw cs5.5.  When I try it on a web browser I get a dialog box that says that the spry panel selector .js requires spry widget.js and continues thru several other dialog boxes until my website loads only to see my image slideshow as a list.  Im not sure if its in the code or the support files can anyone help?  I would greatly appreciate it if someone can set me on the right path with this, Thank you in advance.

    Since this is a one-column layout, the .content is not floated.
        Logo Replacement
        An image placeholder was used in this layout in the .header where you'll likely want to place  a logo. It is recommended that you remove the placeholder and replace it with your own linked logo.
        Be aware that if you use the Property inspector to navigate to your logo image using the SRC field (instead of removing and replacing the placeholder), you should remove the inline background and display properties. These inline styles are only used to make the logo placeholder show up in browsers for demonstration purposes.    To remove the inline styles, make sure your CSS Styles panel is set to Current. Select the image, and in the Properties pane of the CSS Styles panel, right click and delete the display and background properties. (Of course, you can always go directly into the code and delete the inline styles from the image or placeholder there.) <!-- end .content --></div>

    Your spry assets folder MUST be in the same folder as that of your webpage with the slideshow (html, php... whatever)
    Check your folder configuration on the server by clicking on the "Remote Button" on the DW Assets Tab.
    Example 1:  This will not work:
    WEBPAGE HERE:    /server/public/myfolder/slideshow.html
    SPRY ASSETS HERE:  /server/public/SpryAssets/....your javascript files
    Example 2: This will work:
    WEB PAGE HERE:  /server/public/myfolder/slideshow.html
    SPRY ASSETS HERE:  /server/public/myfolder/SpryAssets/....your javascript files
    Hope this helps.

  • Anyone else having trouble with Aperture 3 constantly quitting?

    Hi
    I've been running Aperture 3 for a few days with no problems than an occasional quit; but today it is quitting every time I try to move a photo to a different spot in the same album, or try to insert a slide into a slideshow. It has become totally unusable. Anyone know what is going on? I just relaunched it and it is doing nothing, hanging and is using 93 % of my CPU!!!
    Help, anyone?
    Thanks

    Check "show activity" to see what A3 is doing. If it's faces related you should probably just disable that for now– there seem to be some issues with it. You can also try the repair options:
    http://aperture.maccreate.com/2010/02/09/repair-rebuild-fixing-your-aperture-3-l ibrary/
    I had occasional crashes that were resolve by repairing the db and permissions.

  • I'm having trouble with saving images to contacts

    When I go into edit a contact and choose an image from my camera roll, it saves ok and I press done. Then the next time that person calls their image doesn't come up. When I go back into their contact, their image is gone. Is there any reason why the images wouldn't be saving correctly? Any help greatly appreciated.

    I am also having this same issue. I've had the problem both with Lion and now Lountain Lion. It's very frustrating. I'm using iCloud to sync contacts so I'm not sure if that is the problem.

  • Having trouble with image processor...help please!

    HI there...First off I just bought a new iMac and haven't a clue what I'm doing so my problem could be related to that.  While I'm waiting for Adobe to transfer over my platform I downloaded the trial of CS5 Extended to get me started.  I'm having trouble with the image processor...I choose file/scripts/image processor...the dialog box comes up and I choose use open files and then try and choose the folder I want to save them in.  I choose my folder and hit run and it keeps telling me specify folder destination.  I can't for the life of me figure this out...what am I doing wrong?  It always worked fine for me on my PC and CS3.  I can't handle saving each image individually in the new folder...
    Thanks!!

    I haven't renamed anything as far as I know.  I made a new folder when I hit Folder option and it's highlighted as well as the path shows up in the processor box.  Just when I choose run it tells me to specify a folder.  The only thing I can think of is that maybe something messed up b/c I'm copied the files and folders over from my PC but it let me save as on the mac.  Also the folder I'm choosing to put them in is on the Mac harddrive.  IDK...

  • Help! I'm having trouble with images on my web page.

    I'm trying to create a page with a bunch of my photos but I need the photos broken up into groups so I can discuss the different groups. So I simply cut and paste the photo area several times BUT now when I click on any picture in any group it only does a slideshow for the last group of photos.
    I guess I could simply break the single page into multiple pages but that is so inconvenient in iWeb since it doesn't let you cut and paste template pages! Apple needs to seriously fix this shortcoming. How can you not allow cutting and pasting of pages??
    Here's the page I'm having trouble with:
    http://photo.braintransplants.com/Site/Astronomy.html
    Thanks!
    PowerBook G4 17 (A1085) 1.5 GHz / 1.5 GB RAM / 128 MB VRAM / 80 GB HD   Mac OS X (10.4.2)  

    You probably realise by now that you're attempting to do things with iWeb which it just wasn't intended to do. Cutting and pasting the photo grid area just won't work as you want it to. To work within iWeb's limitations might i suggest that you use the 'nesting' approach described in several posts here already. Use a single representative image on your main page for each of the situations you want to cover, and link each of these to an appropriate Photo page which has 'Include page in navigation menu' unchecked.
    You could add a link on each of the Photo pages which returns to your main descriptive page.

  • I am having trouble with some of my links having images. For example, Foxfire has a picture that looks like a small world. The links in question are blank.

    I am having trouble with my links/websites having images attached to them. The place where the image should be is blank. For example, AARP has an A for its image. My storage website has a blank broken box where the image should be. I forgot I had trouble and had to reset Foxfire, this problem occurred after that reset.

    cor-el,
    Mixed content normally gives the world globe image, unless you are using a theme that uses a broken padlock instead. Maybe the gray triangle means invalid? I came across that in a few themes (what is invalid was not made clear), but those were not using triangle shapes to indicate that.
    I came across that mention in one of the pages you posted:
    * https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Site+Identity+Button
    I cannot attach a screenshot because I have not seen a triangle of any kind in my address bar.

  • Having trouble with iphoto, will not print full image

    Having trouble with iphoto on my laptop and desk top computers.  On laptop will not let me print full image and having trouble getting correct rotation to print
    On desk top printing too dark and cannot get correct rotation there either, seems like the problem just started recently

    Ronleedek-
    What App are you using with the microphone?  I've used Skype, which has a "test call" feature to check your microphone.
    There is a good chance your microphone is defective, possibly disconnected inside the iPad.  If an Apple Store Genius can not fix it, you may get a new iPad on the spot.

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    volume controls issues are windows, not firefox.
    How your copy and paste your image? from where to where
