Screen saver pictures too big

I have read the other posts related to this subject and tried to uncheck and check the energy saver box and it makes no difference. My iPhoto screen saver pictures are zoomed right in. can anyone help ?

Install the 10.6.7 update, comes to mind. Additionally, move any screensaver files in your /Library/Preferences/ and ByHost subfolder to the Desktop, restart, reset the screensaver settings, and see if that fixes the issue. I, for one never use anything but the installed ones, but my mate uses family photos and my experience is that they're resized to fit.

  • Cannot clear screen saver picture after sleep.  A restart is required to resume work.

    A three year old iMac owned by a friend freezes after sleep.  It seems the screen saver picture will not clear.  A force quit or finder restart does not work.  Only way to resume work is to restart the computer.

    Turned out a bad USB device was preventing sleep. Once I removed it the display went to sleep like a baby.

  • My screen suddenly zooms too big w/o me touching anything.  Please help. I recently "upgraded" to Mountain Lion on my iMac

    My screen suddenly zooms too big without me touching anything (i.e. mouse or keyboard).  I can't reduce it.  Part of the menu reappears when I click at the very top, but I can't even get the red-yellow-green buttons to show.  I recently "upgraded" to mountain lion.  Did not have this problem in the past.  My settings appear to be correct.  Any suggestions?

    Hi, have you tried setting a different rez in thje Disply Pref Pane of System Prefs?
    Do those things show if you Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup)?

  • Can I change the screen saver pictures on Apple TV?

    Can I change the screen saver pictures on Apple TV?

    Yes. Use an iPhone browser, such as iExplorer, to access your iPhone's file system. The screensaver photos are stored here;
    /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/AppleTV.framework/DefaultAnimalPhotos
    /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/AppleTV.framework/DefaultFlowerPhotos
    Once you locate these files, you can replace the photos with your own or add more to the folders. Do not change the name of the the folder.

  • ITV Catchup TV picture too big

    We have two laptops – the first one is an HP and works OK in Firefox for all TV Channels
    The second one – an Advent Verona produces the following problem
    ITV and Catchup TV viewed in Firefox - the picture is about 4 times too big
    BBCi, 4OD and Demand 5 all OK in Firefox with this Advent
    ITV and Catchup TV - viewed in Opera - picture OK – size and speed OK
    So it seems to be the result of the – Advent laptop - plus Firefox - plus ITV and Catchup TV

    I will check out Photoshop Elements 6.0, but I have solved my problem. If, after Sharing a iPhoto 16:9 slideshow with iDVD, opening a new iDVD 16:9 file, creating a slide show, and under media/movies, drag the .mov file to the left, and be sure to select, "scale slide to safe TV area," the resulting disc will play on our 16:9 and show the entire contents of each image. The picture does not fill the TV screen, small black bars all around the picture, but at least all of the image shows. I can live with the black bars. One thing, maybe THE thing, I was doing wrong was I was making a movie in iDVD and not a slide show.
    Do you see much difference in the output of FotoMagico2 (FM) during playback on a TV as compared to iDVD? If so, how do you create your .dv files; 16:9 Widescreen, 720p, or 1080p? At the moment, FM cannot work from .mov files, and will not captures iPhoto image captions. This means you have to create a title for each image in FM. Also, unless there is a global way of doing it, you have to zoom each image down inside the dotted line box if you want the entire image to show on your TV. The image does fill the screen, however. I am still comparing.
    Thank you for all your help and support.

  • One hot mail e mail account the screen/font is too big

    I have multiple e mail accounts that are linked. One of the accounts now has a font size too big for the screen. I cannot view anything without moving the bars up and down or left and right. Very annoying. When I go that e mail account with internet explorer the font size, screen is normal for that e mail account just like all the others. What do I do to get firefox to display the screen in default or normal size?

    hi bee, thankyou for your trying to help, but unfortunately you missed a key word in my question. I am asking "mailbox" pane.
    your answer is for the 3rd pane, the email message itself. i have no issue with that. properties has not changed in teh upgrade to maverick OS.
    the 2nd pane (message listing) and 1st pane (listing of mailbox) HAS CHANGED in upgrade to maverick OSX.
    what i learnt from apple support is:
    pane 2: listing of what is in mailbox. -- was possible to change font in classic style. can continue to do this in maverick osx ONLY if you choose the option retain "classic style" under properties/view. else changing the setting in your screenshot has NO IMPACT in the new user interface.  so that in my book is bad coding. defect.
    pane 1: listing of mailbox -- not possible.  and got uglier in maverick OS as now the font is even bigger. plain ugly and needs to be retified. i have about 10 mailboxes so all my screenspace is gone with just the mailboxes and requires scrolling to folders. boring....

  • IPhone on-screen info suddenly too BIG to fit screen

    My iphone 5 went NUTS overnight.  Can't use it today.  Why?
    It worked flawlessly yesterday, even while charging.  Today, I tried to use it and it's impossible.  Everything I see on screen is now, suddenly, too big to fit on screen  --  icons, text, news, mail, games . . . EVERYthing!  I can't even find the keypad or telephone icon.  Nothing works at all.  I changed nothing.
    Any clues, anybody?

    Hi press the menu button 3 times If that doesn't work Try a Reboot press & hold  power button & menu button Hold both down until you see Apple Logo. Cheers Brian

  • Screen saver pictures are showing the wrong way

    Some of the pictures in the Screen Saver are not displaying in their proper direction. The pictures in question show up correctly in iPhoto. Some of these may have been edited in iPhoto, but some of those that display properly have also been edited.
    Not sure how to deal with this.
    TIA!

    lynns456,
    if you select an image in iPhoto and choose File/Export you should get a requestor that lets you scale your photo down to any size.

  • The display on my screen has become too big.  I've tried adjusting the screen size and the zoom isn't set.  Can anyone help?

    I have an iMAC 7.1 running OS X  10.6.8.
    The display has become too big for the screen.  I've looked at the zoom and it is turned off.  I've tried adjusting the pixel setting (currently 1920 * 1200) to no effect.
    The bar at the top of the screen is elongated, and I can't see the time in the top right hand corner.
    This is affecting everything I lookmat, the dock in the bottom doesn't show until I bring the mouse down (hide dock is off).
    I have no idea what caused this and I can't fix it.
    Does anyone have idea what the problem is and how to fix it?
    ANy help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    No wheel, it's a magic mouse.
    Tried safe start.  No difference. 
    The dock and the icons are off the bottom of the screen. 
    I I have finder open and move the cursor to the right to show the time, I lose finder / file /edit from the overhead banner.
    Still no closer to solving it.

  • How to find screen saver picture in photo library

    I use my very large iPhoto library as the source for screen saver photos on my Mac.  From time to time a photo pops up  that I would like to go to in the iPhoto library.  I had hoped that this could be accomplished by just clicking on it — but that, of course, does not work.  Is there a way or app to accomplish what I would like to be able to do?

    Afraid not.

  • Screen Saver picture location in Mountain Lion?

    I was just looking at the Screen Saver tab in System Preferences. And found that photos from the "National Geographic" and "Aerial" sources are excellent photos and I want to choose the once I like to make a customised screen saver slideshow. Does anyone know how to access to those photos in Mountain Lion? I've tried /System/Library/Screen Saver and they are just screen savers but not the photos themselves.

    I went to that website and it does not work?  I have Mountain Lion on a 2011 Macbook Pro.  My library folder was hidden so I looked up how to "unhide" it and now I can access my library.  I followed all those instructions i.s "Macintosh HD > System > Library > Frameworks > Screensaver.framework > Versions > A > Resources > Default Collections" BUT, I do not have a "Frameworks Folder" or anything after that step for that matter.  I have a "Screen Saver" folder but it is empty?  Any suggestions guys??!
