Why don't photos fill the screen on iPhone5

My screen has black bars on each end when viewiing photos; also in Safari.  Why?

The iPhone 5 camera resolution is 3,264 x 2,448 on a retina display. This is 1:1,33 or 4/3. As it was.
Is not changed because of the new 16/9 screen.

  • How can you shrink the size of an upright picture to make it smaller without losing any of the detail in it??? At the moment, if I view them on my laptop, landscape photos fill the screen, but portrait photos only show the middle part.

    How can you shrink the size of an upright picture to make it smaller without losing any of the detail in it (in Slideshow)??? At the moment, if I view them on my Mac Laptop, landscape photos fill the screen, but portrait photos only show the middle part, so I loose the top and bottom of the picture.  Have tried cropping, but that means I lose top and bottom part of the picture, so that is not the answer!!

    Homestly haven't a clue what's going on there. 
    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • Why wont web pages fill the screen of the macbook, it only fills the middle

    is there something on preferences that allows me to set the web pages to take up the full space provided on the screen, ive maximised the page, but the shown contents doesnt take up the whole page, i want to change this so it does, can some one tell me how to do it

    As mentioned, it has a ot to do with the way to pages are coded. I personally hate it when a page fully expands and the lines of text stretch over the whole screen. It is much better when the text only expands to a certain width, then no further.
    As far as the windows go, it is just one of the ways that the Mac OS differs from Windows. I find it to be easier to use when apps are in a windows rather than full screen, especially when I use Expose to switch between apps.
    I have always found it interesting that Windows users generally do not use their apps in windows. I know I used to use full screen all the time in Windows, but now that I use my Mac more than the PC I find myself using windows instead of full screen.
    Not better. Not worse. Just different.

  • Why don't I have the screen resolution I used to have on my iMac 2400.

    I used to have several screen resolutions on my iMac 2400, now I only have two, 1920 X 1200 and 960 X 600.
    Because I am a senior, my eyes need a resolution that provides clarity and is not too small.  960 X 600
    prevents me from using Microsoft Office because I cannot select all of the options i.e. when I want to
    print because the options are beyond the window and I cannot access them.  1920 X 1200 is too small
    for my senior eyes.
    Please update the graphics driver with the resolutions I used to have.  More and more
    seniors use computers and the younger developers need to understand this otherwise
    they will switch to PCs.
    Thank you

    You must have had find my iPhone on, or it was locked by your phone carrier.
    Call your our cell carrier first.
    then log on to a computer to iCloud to erase your iPhone.  
    NOW... You will be able to setup with a backup.

  • Photos in my iPhoto library will not enlarge when double clicked on.  they fill the screen and then screen goes black.  hasn't happened before.  thanks--

    photos in my iPhoto library will not enlarge when double clicked on.  they fill the screen for a second (or less) and then screen goes black.  hasn't happened before.  thanks--

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/ Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help: As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Why don't some of the photos I took with my iPhone 4S appear on my iPad 3? Both are connected to WiFi and iCloud is activated on both devices.

    Why don't some of the photos I took with my iPhone 4S appear on my iPad 3? Both are connected to WiFi and iCloud is activated on both devices.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • I customize my paper size and print size and am then viewing a photo on my screen. I print it out and it chops off about 5% of all edges of my original photo on the screen. Why does it do that? It is driving me crazy. I use an Epson Photo 2200 printer.

    What print and paper sizes are you using?  Are you trying to print a borderless print?  Does your printer support borderless for that particular size?  Are you printing to the custom stock size or to a larger stock size?

  • Unable to get HD Wide Screen 16:9 to fill the screen on TV.

    12/20/08
    Problem: I am not able to get HD Wide Screen 16:9 to fill the screen on TV. Leaves dark bands on the top and bottom of picture.
    What I'm working with: Mac Pro Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processors with 2GB Memory soon to be 6GB & 30 inch screen. QuickTime Pro 7.5.5, Final Cut Express 4.0.1, and iDVD, 7.0.2.
    New JVC, GZ-HD3U camcorder with QuickTime conversion software, recently updated, provided by JVC with the camera to change native TOD. files created in the camcorder to native MPEG2 files in Quicktime at a size of 1920 x 1080.
    Two TV's, one Wide Screen HD and the other standard screen. I have changed the TV aspect rations back and forth from 4:3 to 16:9 and the only thing that changes is the size of the black bands on the top and bottom of the screen. The black spaces are larger in 16:9, making the picture appear squeezed.
    I am using RW DVD discs so I can continue to try different setups without wasting discs and so far I have tried about 12 different arrangements. Two methods work but they are export conversions to a 4:3 aspect ratio and 720X480DV/DVCPRO-NTSC. Certainly this is a work around, but doing this looses the Wide Screen HD effects provided by the original JVC movies.
    When I import the clips, and I've tried a number of different imports from QuickTime to Final Cut Express, I make sure that the Sequence set up matches or comes as close as possible to the imported clips. I've tried exporting them from FCE without changes and I have exported them using QuickTime to change them to different formats using nearly everything available trying to get the clips or sequences ready to import to iDVD.
    In iDVD I have set up using both aspect ratios and it appears as thought setting up in 16:9 makes the spaces above and below even larger on TV. In fact it creates these spaces above and below even on the 720X480DV/DVCPRO-NTSC clips that work just fine on the 4:3 aspect ratio settings on the same TV.
    If anyone has overcome this problem, I would greatly appreciate your guidance. So far, I've spent over a 100 hours on it to no avail.
    Larry

    Tom, I don't know where to go in FCE to create a AVCHD AIC Sequence. I can find the
    1920X1080i60 in the Sequence format without any problem. And in QT don't know where to select AIC but I select Apple Intermediate Codec, and under compressor I select HDV 1080i interlaced frame rate 29.97. Under Export Size Settings I don't know rather to select 1920 x 1080 HD or HD 1920 x 1080 16:9 and what about preserve aspect ratio using and Deinterlace Source Video?
    Part two: When I create a Sequence in FCE with the 1920X1080i60 designation, and then import a QT HD 1920X1080 16:9 Intermediate Codec clip into a bin and then open the clip in that sequence I'm asked if I want to match the clip to the sequence and if I don't I have rendering. If I match them the rendering, as you said, goes away. However, I notice that when I check out the Item Properties on them after the above process, the Aspect ratio in the clip and Sequence, suddenly becomes HD 1440x1080. Is this normal?

  • How can I make iPhone 4S Video's fill the screen when using them in iMovie 11 on My MacBook Pro

    Hey Guys.
    I am a singer songwriter from he UK.... I recently bought an Iphone4s, Ipad and Mac book pro (haha, apple hero, I know). I have always wanted to make the big jump to apple, just was waiting a little while.
    I am thrilled so far, it's all great. But, I use Imovie (i am still getting to grips with it, but the features are amazing) to make videos of me singing coversand original videos for youtube.
    The Camera on the iphone4s is great.
    But, when I import videos into Imovie11, the videos do not fill the screen in their original form.
    In some videos, I use the Ken Burns effect. Now, on the parts of my video when I use this effect, it fills the screen as it should do.
    Why do the videos in their untampered form not do this?  I have tried importing widescreen, original size, and Large, but it alwys sits in the middle of the screen, fairly thin lookin. It fills the screen when it's on my Iphone, I am very lost.
    plesse help.
    thanks.

    if i can offer any more info please just ask

    I have continuously over the last 6 months struggled with syncing my iphone and ipod with itunes  The app continually crashes during the picture import.  AND by the way it takes 10-15 minutes before it even attempts to import photos.  The screen says importing photoes but doesnt try to optimize or anything for 10 minutes.  I have a 3gs with 16Gb so its not a cheap phone.  I have 10Gb free.  I have 6600 photoes.  This is very frustrating and undermines my confidence in your products.  My ipod is an ipod 4 with 16Gb also.  It does the exact same thing to it.  The last time, I had to import photoes a few at the time and with it taking 10-15 minutes each time for 6600 photos it is a long frustrating process.  But it will import every photo a few at a time.  The error message is just that itunes has stopped working.  no hint as to why. AND of course, my phone is out of use for the entire time.  You guys must not want to believe ur phones are a necessary tool...or maybe you dont want the consumer to believe it is.  I have tried to find solutions on your website as well as through other 3rd party communities.  Ultimately they were of no use.  I stumbled onto my solution by accident since Im a bit of a computer geek...a semi-geek.

    I have this issue too, I went into my Windows event viewer. (should have looked at this a year ago when this started)
    it said this

    basically whenever I try to sync my ipod touch 4G 64GB it crashes iTunes when it begins the pictures. if im lucky ill get 4-5 on there before it stops responding. its not my system or anything im running win7x64 8GB DDR3 ram (Corsair XMS3) AMD FX Eight core processor.
    It is silly that iTunes cannot add pictures to apple devices. it shatters whatever incline I may have to buy apple products. knda like the Airport Extreem router my dad bought the new firmware, caused my router to not function... why release firmware that breaks a product. -_- <-- off topic but still

  • Why don't I have the invite icon on the bottom right hand side of my calendar?  How do I get this? And why wouldn't my 4S have it and everyone else's iPhone 4 does?

    Why don't I have the invite icon on the bottom right of my calendar screen and how do I get it?
    Why wouldn't my 4S have this? But iPhone 4 users do? It is already turned on in my settings but that icon is missing in my calendar.

  • Can you get the album art to fill the screen?

    1)Is it possible to get the album art to fill the screen on the nano?
    2)If you make the gif more widescreen in dimensions will it fill more of the screen at the sides?

    1) If you press twice on the 'select' button, the pic will fill the screen. However, it only stays for a couple of seconds. I don't think you can make it permanent.
    2) No, it is being compressed in iTunes to fit their pre-defined square shape. I haven't seen any settings which would enable you to play with that.
