After 6.01 photos look blurry

I've noticed that when seeing my pictures with Iphoto they do not look as sharp as they looked prior to the update.They slightly blurry now
However, when I open them in Photoshop they look OK.
Anyone else experiencing the same issue?

Dave,
On both my G4 and G5, I've encountered the same problem from time to time and here's the workaround that fixed it for me:
Apply a filter to the images. I use the 3-Way Color Corrector since many of the photos could stand a little tweaking for TV anyway. Render them and they should retain their original sharpness.
I have no idea what causes the problem, why it only affects some of the images and not all of them, nor do I know why re-rendering them after applying a filter works ... but it does for me.

ps: another symptom that this fix takes care of is when you see a small shift (1 or 2 pixels) in the image's position as it comes out of a transition.

  • Photos look blurry only when using Slideshow

    When I select an iPhoto album to view as a slideshow the photos appear blurry during the slideshow. When not using slideshow, when I open individual photos in iPhoto6 they appear blurred for maybe 2 seconds before snapping into sharp. The thumbnails are fine (sharp). But the photos stayed blurred in Slideshow changing from one blurred photo to the next - in other words useless. The photos are jpgs. I have no problems with any blur at all in Photoshop CS2. I assume I have to change some setting but I can't find any reference to this in iPhoto help. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

  • Photos Look blurry in the canvas when movie plays....CLEAR when I pause???

    I am using BMP scanned picture files here, so first off I wanted to know if this is at all contributing to the problem?
    I don't understand why the photo is blurrier when the movie plays, then gets clearer and more defined when i stop or pause the movie in the time line in the canvas????
    Do i need a filter applied or is there something else i don't know about?
    Thanks in advance guys.
    -Mike

    This problem used to dog me also when I first started on FCP.....but the moves on photos really do look crisp and smooth....
    One way to check the quality of the phots (without an external monitor) is to export a portion of you sequence that has a photo in it as a quicktime movie. Then open and play that quicktime in the quicktime viewer.....you'll be able to see the quality and smoothness of the final product....
    (Basically, when you see the quality of the photo in your fcp sequence (as it's paused), that's the quality you'll see once you export it and burn it to a dvd...)
    Enjoy.

  • Photos Look Blurry on NTSC monitor when played from timeline

    When I play back jpeg photos from my timeline on my monitor, the pictures look a bit blurry, especially right at the end of my transition, such as a cross dissolve...When I stop the playhead on a jpeg, after about 1 second, the image becomes very sharp on the monitor...once I start playing again, the image becomes a bit blurry!

  • Photos look blurry in Aperture (Unknown Lens)

    Hello,
    I see a strange behaviour in Apple's Aperture (latest version).
    When I import new pictures, taken by a Samsung NX1000 and open the pic the first time it looks sharp.
    After less than a second Aperture does something and I see the picture changes from sharp to blurry.
    When I open the pic in Mac Finder the picture looks great.
    Maybe it has something to do that Aperture does not recognize my lens?
    I see that the camera model is correct but with "Unknown Lens"
    Hope you can help.
    - Attached you see a picture in Aperture (left), and the same pic opened from the Finder.
    - The picture on the right is much better. How is this possible? I just import the pic without
      any editing into Apreture and get the mess.
    LEFT > Aperture --- RIGHT > Same pic opened in Finder on Mac, look way better.
    Regards,
    Marc

    Hi Griff W!
    What is the relationship between sharpening and un-adjusted Images in Aperture?  The article you cite says:
    sharpening adjustments applied to the image may seem less apparent than they really are.
    The OP specifies that the effect he is seeing precedes any adjustments made.  Are you implying that the article you cite includes the sharpening controls in the RAW Fine Tuning adjustment as part of its definition of "sharpening adjustments"?  This is important to know.  Thanks for your insight.

  • My still photos look blurry on burned iDvds

    I've been trying to make a DVD of still photos. My DVD from iDVD is blurry when viewed. It's blurry wether I look at it on a TV or the computer, so it's not a screen quality issue. My photos are nice and clear on iDVD when making the disc, but the disc quality is horrible. Looking at the forums it seems that I'm not the only one with this issue, but all the suggestions either don't make sense to me or I can't make them work. It seems as though some have had success making an iMovie and then making a .mov file in HD, then dragging it into iDVD. I can't drag the .mov file into iDVD. I also cannot burn the .mov file to disc. I'm starting to hate Apple for telling me how intuitive my computer is. If it was so intuitive a computer dummy like me could figure it out. Very frustrated...

    Hi
    I think that this have several reasons
    • No DVD can do the same quality as Your Mac Screen - NON. DVD is as standard SD-video and can not be any better.
    • Assemble SlideShows in iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 then Send to iDVD - will make things even worse
    a. iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - can only deliver every second line to iDVD resulting in 50% loss
    b. Share to iDVD - makes iMovie to render and so bad - Better is to Share to Media Browser and from iDVD import from it's Media Browser - iDVD renders so much better
    So to get best quality DVD is not the way - Blu-Ray or photos on a memory stick can be so much better or even projected directly from the Mac - will give best quality possibly
    To get an as good DVD as possibly
    • Use a program that can do SlideShows and export them without any loss eg
    ◊ iMovie up to HD6 (previous versions)
    ◊ FinalCut any version
    ◊ FotoMagico™
    are what I use.
    I let iDVD do the rendering
    I use Verbatim DVD-R disks
    I set down burn speed to x4 (less burn errors and DVD works on more Players)

  • All photos look blurry

    somehow while experimenting in iphoto all my pictures that were there now seem blurry?
    Any way to just make them all back to original look.
    Im also wondering if theres not a better mac program for just storing my photos ?
    Thanks
    Allan

    Allan
    What sort of experimenting have you been doing? Some things to check: look down right a the slider, play with that a little?
    As to "just storing my photos": The Finder will store your files. What else do you want?

  • Photos looking out of focus after I save them.

        My photos look great after my layers and saving, but when I try to upload them online, email, or print they don't look the same.Kind of out of focus/blurry.  I've tried for hours and can't seem to figure out why this is happening. Please, if you know, help is needed!!

    I just realized they are also not as clear looking
    Is the profile embedded and do the programs you use to display the uploaded images use color management?
    As for the blurriness: That sounds like some (automatic) resampling may have taken place.

  • Why do my photos get blurry when they are enlarged to full screen from the disc I burn, or played on the t.v.?  I set the burn on the highest quality.  The photos don't look blurry when enlarged from iphoto on the computer.

    Why do my photos that are transferred from iphoto to idvd, and then burned on DVD, look blurry when the idvd is shown full screen on computer or on t.v.  They don't look blurry when I enlarge the iphoto pics on the computer.  I used the 'prof. quality" encoding setting before burning, and before putting photos on idvd.

    Hi
    DVD is as standard - only interlaced SD-Video (as on old CRT-TVs) and can never be any better than this.
    This is less than a quarter of Your Mac screen resolution.
    That's one part of Why You can see High res. on Your Mac - and not on DVD.
    Next part is what program is used to make the SlideShow.
    If You use iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - to make it - it too degrades the final result as non of them can deliver interlaced SD-Video to iDVD but only half (every second line in the picture)
    I use
    • iMovie HD6 or
    • FinalCut (any version) or
    • FotoMagico™
    As they all delivers 100% of what iDVD or Toast™ or DVD Studio Pro or Whatever needs.

  • Pages documents look blurry after updating to iOS 8.3

    I use the iWorks apps a lot, after updating tonight to iOS 8.3 I discovered that the display of all the documents from Pages looks blurry, and when I open a document it looks still blurry, is there a way to fix it?, Am I the only one having this trouble?

    Just got off the phone with Apple Tech Support, including a Pages specialist. No solutions so far but there have been other complaints. The initial technician had to look up under iWorks rather than Pages. The Pages specialist is filing a report but suggested it would speed things along to go to apple.com/feedback, scroll down to iOS Apps, select Pages, and file a bug report online, which I just did. The more of us willing to file an online bug report the faster the fix. Be sure to include the version number of Pages (Settings/Pages). I checked other native iOS apps (Safari, Mail, Notes, Calender, Contacts) and they are all fine. I updated my iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2 to iOS 8.3 and Pages text is blurry. I did not update my iPhone 5c. It is still running iOS 8.2 and Pages text is perfect. All are running the latest version of Pages (2.5.2). So the problem is definitely with the 8.3 update.

  • Photos are blurry after import

    I just downloaded Aperture.  All photos have been imported from iPhoto and looked fine.  I closed Aperture, re-opened and now the photos are blurry (the thumbnails are clear).  I can't make photo adjustments because it says offline.  What am I doing wrong here?  Why did it work prior to closing and re-opening the program?

    How did you import from iPhoto?
    The correct way would be as outlined here:
    http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/#chapter=4%26section=10
    Also check to see what your Preview size and quality are set to in Aperture Preferences (using Quality '8' and the resolution of your monitor - marked with an asterisk - should work well).

  • Photos on Wordpress Blog look blurry on iPad or Iphone? Why is that?

    Hi,
    Is there any reason why the images on blogs I post look blurry when I look at them on an iPhone or an iPad?
    They look perfect on a PC or Mac but opened on an iPhone or an iPad they look low res.
    Is there any specific way I need to save them before I upload them into the blog?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you!

    I hear what you're saying but I'm not sure how that will effect apps. I can see that my music downloads are not showing but my Apps seem to be in place.
    I tried to sign in with the old ID but the last password didn't work. I requested a reset but the email with the reset link never arrived. What must I do in a case like that.
    PS - I figured out how to sign out manually and I can now connect to the new ID on all my devices. I just need to get the old ID working again.

  • Upgraded to 10.3.1 - photos appear blurry in the albumn but are fine when viewed on a computer

    Hi - I upgraded to 10.3.1 on my Q5 last week.  When I take a photo it takes a while to appear and then looks blurry.  If I turn the phone off and try again it's fine for a little while then the same problem happens.  I downloaded the photos to my computer to double check them and they are clear on the computer, so it's not an issue with the camera as I first thought, but rather when viewing them.  I have no outstanding updates and I have searched all over the forums but can't see a solution.  Thanks in advance for any help.

    can you please take one picture, view it when it is blurred and make a screenshot
    and do the same after turning the phone off ?
    then for both screenshots, you can attach them here so we can see.

  • When I first am looking at my newly uploaded photos in "Library", a box appears near the bottom of the photo that says "loading" (the photo looks good to me), then it is more "faded" and does not look as good.  Is there some setting on that I am not aware

    When I am first looking at my newly uploaded photos in "Library," a box appears near the bottom of the photo that says "Loading".  While it is loading, I usually think the photo looks "good".  After the photo is done loading, it looks more washed out.  Is there some sort of setting that I might have on (or that I need to turn on) so that this does not happen.  I have Lr4.  Thanks.

    Hi Tracy,
    There used to be a way to see if poster was new to the forum.., anyway - welcome to the forum.
    As I was alluding to, biggest differences in initial display are due to:
    * Camera calibration profile.
    * Auto-exposure/contrast settings (for which compensations have been auto-applied in camera, but not in Lightroom).
    So, choose a matching camera calibration profile (whether that's an option or not depends on your camera model - they're available for many but not all models) if you prefer one of them over "Adobe Standard" (the factory default profile).
    Also, your camera covers for underexposure due to non-optimal auto-exposure/contrast setting, Lightroom doesn't, so your options are:
    * turn it off in camera.
    * learn to compensate manually (or automatically via a plugin) in Lightroom.
    Of course, in addition to preferred defaults (alt-click big "reset" button in dev module), come up with some presets which are appropriate for your druthers and type of photography.. e.g. these will compensate Nikon ADL settings:
