Why are my pictures from my Powershot SX130IS blurry on the left side only?

I have had my Powershot SX130Is for less than a year.  Initially it took lovely pictures.  Now all of the pictures are blurry on the left of each image.  I use the easy or auto setting.  I am very dissappointed with the picture quality.  Any suggestions?

LibbiePayne,
I agree that making sure the lens is clean may be all that is needed here.  You can clean the lens by gently wiping it down with a soft, lint free cleaning cloth, similar to what you would typically use to clean eyeglasses.
If the images are still blurry on the left side, this may require more in-depth troubleshooting. Feel free use this Contact Us link to contact us directly if you continue to experience this issue.

  • Have a new macbook pro and on the display there are 2 lines, one blue and one green on the left side.  Does anyone know what the problem is.  Happened after 2 weeks.

    I just purchased a new macbook pro.  Have had it about 2 weeks.  Last night there were 2 thin lines that are on the left side of the desktop, 1 green and 1 blue from top to bottom.  This happened after I added a printer.  Anyone know what this is.  Fearing that is a flaw in the screen.

    Sounds like a hardware problem.  You'll need to contact Apple ASAP.  Since it's so new, hopefully they will just replace it rather than making you go through the repair process, but that's up to them.

    Dirty lens, poor light, shaking the iPad when taking the picture, could be lots of reasons.

  • Why are my pictures green after itunes uploaded them to the iPhone5 and iPad 3?

    Hello all,
    Thank you for your time as i have ran into a strange problem with iTunes 10.7.0.21. Photos being synchronized to my iPhone 5 and iPad 3 are becoming green when iTunes is used to synchronize the folders. The system used is a Windows 7 X64 Sp1 with iTune 10.7.0.21. Previously i used a iPod (second generation) which is now being replaced by something more advanced. Once i synchronized the photos they all showed greenish whereas i have reached out to apple care without success in resolving the problem.
    To fix the problem the following troubleshooting steps were performed:
    1. Restore the iPhone 5 using iTunes 10.7.0.21 to it's defaults and resynchronize the photo library ( No Change - still green )
    2. Remove the iPod Photo Cache from the disk and started resynchronization  ( No Change - still green )
    3. Remove the iPod Photo Cache from the disk and Restore the iPhone 5 using iTunes 10.7.0.21 to it's defaults and resynchronize the photo library ( No Change - still green )
    4. Reinstalled windows 7 and iTunes 10.7.0.21, Remove the iPod Photo Cache from the disk and Restore the iPhone 5 using iTunes 10.7.0.21 to it's defaults and resynchronize the photo library ( No Change - still green )
    I have ran out of options and would like to learn if more people have the same problem; and how they resolved the problem if possible?!
    The following image is the image that is being synchronized to my iPhone:
    This is the original photo:

    I think iPhoto for iOS is designed to optimize photos for use on sharing sites like Facebook and photobucket. Supposedly sharing the photos to iTunes will allow you to copy them over to your computer at full size. She then to iTunes after editing them and before doing anything else with them.
    The iPad optimizes photos when they are imported via the sync process. This downsizes them before they even get to iPhoto for you to edit them. Importing the photos directly from the camera using a Camera Connection Kit keeps them at their original size. iPhoto will work on photos up to 20 mp.

  • Why are my pictures grainy (not clear)?

    why are my pictures grainy?

    The resolution of the cameras on the iPad are very low, something like 1 meg, and they are mainly for things like Facetime. If you have very good light then you may get acceptable photos from it, but you are probably better off using a digital compact or even your phone for photos

  • Why don't pictures from a slideshow made in iPhoto and then burned on to a DVD in iDVD not use the full screen?

    Why don't pictures from a slideshow made in iPhoto and then burned on to a DVD in iDVD not use the full screen?

    All I want to do is send my family the pictures for them to be able to see them on most dvds and use manually control.
    If you want set top DVD player playback, I suggest you create a a series of slideshows IN iDVD that each contain a MAXIMUM of 99 images. Do not create the slideshow in iPhoto or iMovie.
    Is there an easier way to do this, bypassing iDVD?
    Some DVD players will play a disc containing jpeg images

  • Why are 16x9 photos from PSE8 not filling screen when exported to PRE8?

    I batch cropped a bunch of photos to (JPEG) 16x9 and created a slideshow in PSE8 (about 100 slides, 3.2 sec duration, random pan/zoom, random 1 sec transition). I had to click on each photo "properties" and choose "fit on slide" since it was defaulting to "crop to fit" (which was further cropping my 16x9 photos down to something not desirable).
    When I "Output to PSE8" it shows up in the sceneline as not filling the entire space. If I click on this slide show in PRE8 and use the "properties" then "motion" and increase the size of the pictures, they come out blurry. However, if I insert one of the 16x9 photos directly into PRE8, it fills the entire screen and is perfect focused.
    PLEASE tell me there is an easier solution than having to create the entire slideshow in PRE8. I really like the random transitions, easy batch duration pan/zoom, control.

    Thanks for such a quick response Steve. I will attempt to add more information to help clarify your addtional quesitons
    The pan and zoom I am using is the default (very minor- just enough to give the perception of movement).
       If I import directly into PRE8 the picture(s) look perfect. It just seems to occur after I port to PRE8
    I am not sure what workflow I am following but will be a bit more specific as to the steps I have been taking:
    1. I open the PSE8 workspace and choose "organize" (not edit)
    2. I click on "create" then click on "slideshow"
    3. Next I set my specific defaults (for this project) 3.2 sec interval, 1 second Random transitions, apply pan and zoom to all slides and leave the "crop to fit slide-landscape" checked ( thanks for the tip to uncheck this next time, so I dont have to do it to every slide!!)
    4. I then import my media from "add media" "photos and videos from folders" place the photos in the order i am looking for then save the project.
    5.I next click "output" and "edit with Premiere Elements" - which open PRE8
    6. in PRE8 setup I choose the "HDV 1080i 30" configuration.
    The slideshow has now ported over to PRE8. The slideshow bundle does not utilize all of the space in the sceneline, hence my problem (black bars top and bottom of screen). Ironically, when I import via get media (directly from PRE8) the same pictures from my computer file (not in the organizer), they fill the entire space in the sceneline (no black bars on top or bottom).  I have this problem regardless of whether or not I am using the pan/zoom or the unchecking of crop to fit slide landscape in PSE8.
    I can send a screen print if you think that might help??
    I sure hope this helps, all the other video items that are not related to this slideshow are perfect and this is killing me!!
    Thanks, again, Mike

    Told me to try unchecking the box to sync Photos.
    Do a sync.
    Then check the box.
    And sync again.
    Going to try that now. Let me know if it works for you James

    Why is the print area on all envelope templates more than 1/2 inch from the left side of the envelope.. ? Can this be fixed or changed.. ?
    I have pages 09 version 4.1... It is a small aggravation.. The left 3 or 4 characters on the return address would not print until I realized that by clicking on
    " View " & " Show Lay-Out " that it was out side the printable range ...

    It seems to be a Pages template  " Print range " issue..  Both the Epson and the HP printers were doing it and it was today that I realized why..  !!
    When I move it to where it will print there is large gap on the left margin of the return address..  Just wondering if anyone else knew about this.. ? My Pages is ' 09 ' version 4.1...

  • Why are old apps from different user account still on iPad 2 when I changed to a new itunes account?

    I am a teacher and we are setting up accounts for our iPad carts, and we originally had one account for all our iPads, and have now switched to using three separate accounts.  When I logged into iTunes with our new ID for the cart, and tried syncing an iPad, it still had the old apps on the iPad that I was trying to sync with the new account.  The apps were also still in the iTunes Library, which I thought was odd since they are from the different account.  So are these apps supposed to still be on the iPad, and if not what should we do?

    If the apps are still in the iTunes library on the computer that you are syncing them from then they will remain on the iPad - more thatn one account can be authorised on a computer's iTunes (via the Store > Authorise This Computer drop-down menu option), the account doesn't need to be the one that is logged in. If you don't want those apps on the iPads anymore then you could delete them from that computer's iTunes
