Blurry images in Cover View?

When I view my "Pictures" folder with the Finder set to Cover View the previews stay blurry. When I view a different folder containing pictures I've downloaded from the web, they resolve very crisply. It doesn't make sense. Anyone?

I have many Finder Cover Flow preview pictures appearing blurry - particularly those jpegs created in Photoshop Elements 2.0. However if I search for the same files in Spotlight the same Cover Flow preview pictures appear crisp and clear.

  • Distorted Album Cover Images In Cover View Mode

    I have recently developed a problem where a number of album covers appear distorted (lines, dots etc.)when in the cover view only.
    The same album when viewed in the grouped or list mode displays the correct image in both views.
    Please Help

    i am probably being bad taking this topic to three different threads. strange thing there is no button for me to start my own new thread.
    try this...copy album to artist album and grouping, each album done seperately of course. its a work around for me. i think artist ablum and grouping is redundant. if i sort by artist, thats fine to split them all up, but if i click album, it should group them all together in any view. (i can see the use for grouping, but then playlist or genres can do the same job.

  • Blurry images in cover flow view

    why do my tiff files (primarily) look so blurry when I switch to cover flow view on my new mac? I've seen posts about this issue as far back as 2007- has apple still not fixed this, or is it just me? As a photographer it's a major annoyance to have to zoom in on each image to get a good look at it. Little help?

    I actually figured out the answer to this one myself, with the help of someone's previous post about creating new thumbnails with a little app called CocoThumbX, which can be used to strip image files of their thumbnails and create new ones. I almost gave up on it, because the new thumbnails I was generating from it didn't show up any clearer. But then I used it to remove thumbnails only, without creating new ones afterward, and the images now look as they should in cover flow. I don't know if there are any negative side effects of not having thumbnails, or even where the original thumbnails were located in the system, but wherever needed, the computer seems to be generating it's own thumbnails for the images, and they're looking good. Hope this helps.

  • How can i Display my images in cover flow view in Keynote?

    I am working on a project .I am on Mavericks . I need to make a presentation of my project ideas . My project involves showing some images in cover flow view . So, is there any way i can show my images in cover flow view in keynote or pages app or by using any other app .

    Keynote is an screen based presentation application
    Pages is a page layout application for print output
    Coverflow is a viewing option of the finder to look at the contents of a folder
    To create a slideshow of your images, open Keynote and drag and drop images from a folder into the Navigator pane then press the play button
    The Navigator panel is the side panel on the left

  • I have blurry artwork in Album View thumbnails.  Deleting the cache makes all the artwork sharp, but once iTunes is restarted, the artwork goes back to being fuzzy unless i delete cache again.

    I have blurry artwork in Album View thumbnails, but not in Grid View/Cover Flow.  Deleting the cache and forcing it to rebuild makes all the artwork sharp, but once iTunes is restarted, the artwork goes back to being fuzzy unless i delete cache again.

    Responding to your request here.
    I can't say it's a problem I've noticed personally, though now you've made me look it does seem that the large thumbnail is slightly fuzzier than the same image in the artwork panel. I have the artwork panel as small as it goes (small screen) and it is still slightly larger than the image in the browser so that might be all there is to it.
    Here's an example from my screen.
    Perhaps iTunes is storing a thumbnail at say "medium" size which it then blows up to create the large image. Are you seeing a similar effect or is your "fuzzy" art much fuzzier? A screenshot would be helpful.

  • Issues with finder going out of sync with file images in cover flow.

    Hi All,
    I'm having issues with files going out of sync with images in cover flow since updating to Mavericks. Typically, if I had for example 10 pictures listed as 1 to 10, if i deleted images 6&7 the images remain in coverflow but the file listings are removed, then if i click on image 7 the file listing of image 8 is highlighted, then to make matters worse, if i click on the file listing for image 9 in shows image 8 in cover flow. To stop this I have to shut down finder and restart it, then the whole thing repeats itself if i delete more images. Its a nightmare when your working with 50 plus images at a time!!! Help!!
    Thanks all.

    com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and com.apple.finder.plist
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Preferences/. Move the .plists to your desktop.
    Re-launch Finder by loggin out/in and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the same, return the .plist to where you got it  from, overwriting the newer ones.
    Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
    You might need to redo the View settings after an update.
    If you look at the 'More Like This' box (top right) it seems the Cover Flow view is having problems.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • Help needed with simple image enlargement when viewing a gallery

    Hi
    I have a gallery component linked to a data thumb list. This all scrolls fine and works. When someone clicks on a thumb it shows the
    image larger. Then I would like it if you click on the larger image it fills the height of the page to see an even bigger view. I have managed to do this but some of the buttons do not work in the area were this image is even if the image is not showing and the image will not go back to its off state even though it has an interaction to do so. If I drag the image component down the layers panel so it is behind all the other bits on my page it all works, the image enlarges and disappears so the previous state is shown. The problem with this is I want the image to cover everything behind it, not be behind everything. I have included a couple of screen grabs just to give you an idea.
    sc 1 simple data list and image component
    sc2 Enlarged image but can not get it to go
    sc3 enlarged image can come and go no changes except I have moved the layer panel down
    to the bottom
    Any ideas how I can get this to work properly would be much appreciated
    many thanks

    I have sorted this out. There might be other ways of doing this but I added a button to the large image gallery component.
    constructed a rectangle the same size as the large image and set the opacity to 0. The whole area is now a button you can not see.
    One click anywhere on the image removes it with an interaction back to the first state which is off.
    hope this help anyone

  • When I burn a 1.3 GB movie on DVD on the highest quality setting, the result is a blurry image.  How can I fix that?

    Why did I get a poor quality DVD result when the quality is good when I view it on Premiere Elements?

    piboss314
    What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
    What is the project preset for the project and what are the properties of the source media for the project.?
    What is the screen size of the TV being used for viewing of the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc? Do you have the
    same problem if you view the DVD-VIDEO on DVD using a computer player?
    We need to explore if this is a problem of expectation or something else.
    a. If you take your Timeline content to AVCHD format on a DVD disc, what is the quality of that end product?
    Just in case note, DVD-VIDEO standard 4:3 and widescreen 16:9 have the same frame size, 720 x 480 (NTSC) and 720 x 576 (PAL).
    The widescreen has a 16:9 flag that stretches the video for display after encoding....in the case of NTSC to about 856 x 480. So, if you
    have a high resolution Timeline content, what you are seeing in the end product DVD-VIDEO may not be faring well in the comparison.
    b. Please define "poor" quality - not clear, blurry, images smudged looking, something else.
    If you are starting with interlaced video with field order = Upper Field First, you may be running into a problem with the field order
    that is part of DVD-VIDEO, that is, Lower Field First. We can correct that in 2 ways.
    Please review the above. Your reply with details will direct us in customizing an appropriate troubleshooting plan.
    Thank you.

  • Firefox shows blurry images (and none of the best-known solutions work)

    No matter
    * if I run Firefox under safe mode (plugins disabled),
    * if I update my graphics drivers,
    * or if I disable Harware Rendering under Advanced Options,
    Firefox keeps showing blurry images.
    Here is a comparison screenshot between Firefox (left) and Opera (right) rendering the same image:
    http://imgur.com/7GksG7Z
    This has been happening for a long time, even through several Firefox updates. None of the solutions I've found on the web (listed above) will fix this problem.
    The image blur is tiring on the eyes, not being able to see images correctly is so annoying, and I hope someone can help me fix this issue.

    Changing Firefox's zoom behavior so you can enlarge just the text but not the images can lead to site layouts breaking. If you want to take a look:
    View menu > Zoom > ''check'' Zoom Text Only
    (If you do not normally display the classic menu bar, tap the Alt key to display it temporarily.)
    Firefox 22 was the first to tie your Firefox content zoom level to your Windows DPI setting. You can break the connection and set Firefox to use 100% resolution (the classic 96dpi resolution) if you like. Here's how:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''pix''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click '''layout.css.devPixelsPerPx''' and change its value to '''1.0''' for Firefox 21-sized fonts.
    This will return the content to normal, but the toolbars may appear a bit smaller than your Windows standard for UI (100%/105%). There is an extension to enlarge fonts in that area: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/theme-font-size-changer/ Theme Font & Size Changer].
    Can you get it to work the way you want?

  • Display Image in Power View and Power BI

  • What happened to cover view? It doesn't seem to be available in the latest version.

    I really liked the cover view. Now since the latest download, it seems to be awol.

    Roboform have made a marketing decision to only make version 7 of their toolbar compatible with Firefox 4, and you need to pay to get the upgrade.
    A free alternative is the LastPass Password Manager - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/lastpass-password-manager

  • Lightroom 5 is distorting my images in Develop view

    When working on images in Develop, Lightroom 5 is distorting them. For example, let's say I'm looking at an image in Library view (fig.1), then switch to Develop view (fig.2) — the image is suddenly compressed horizontally (or stretched vertically, however you choose to describe it).
    At other times, images get distorted and rotated (fig.3). And at other times, images were appearing as though a sharpen filter had been applied with accented highlights — but this particular distortion doesn't seem to be happening anymore.
    This does not happen to all images in the catalog. I'm running LR 5.2 on a 15" MBP with 16GB ram and a 1.2TB fusion drive.
    Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm late on a deadline beause of this, and other local (NYC) experts, as well as Adobe phone support, are as stumpted as I am.
    fig.1    
    fig.2    
    fig.3    

    Did you find an answer?  I'm having the same issue with LR 4.4.  It didn't happen with 4.3
    The only thing I've found to fix it is re-reading the MetaData file for each affected photo and it is taking forever.

  • Podcast syncing & Podcast cover view in iTunes 11

    Hello,
    One of the features for iTunes 11 was podcast syncing. It was supposed to sync what podcasts you had between your computers and mobile devices, and also sync position. Was quite looking forward to this feature. Where is it and how do you make it work ? There is no cloud symbol beside Podcasts, was the feature dropped ?
    Also I quite like the new Album cover view for Music, is it possible to get that for Podcasts ?
    Thanks.

    Ah you can get the nice Album view for podcasts. Create a smart playlist which adds all podcasts ("is kind podcast"). Select Music > Playlist. Select the smart playlist on the left. Gives you nice album view for podcasts. Also in the new mini viewer you can choose between podcasts in the pop up list.
    No podcast syncing yet though.
    Also it would be nice if you could force permanent cover art for podcasts. So many are missing even though they have a cover in iTunes.

  • Double clicking an image in Browser view

    I see that the behavior for double clicking an image in Browser view has changed between Aperture 2 & 3. In version 2, double clicking an image would jump from Browser view to zoom in on that image in full screen mode. Now in version 3, double clicking just switches to that image in Viewer mode in the main window, without entering into full screen mode.
    While I guess this change makes some sense given the changes to full screen mode in v.3, my old fingers have gotten used to doing things the old way. To recreate what I used to do in v.2 I need to double click, then hit 'F' to do to full screen mode and then do the reverse to get back where I started.
    Is there anyway I can change this behavior to the old v.2 way? I see lots of ways to customize hotkeys and commands, but nothing to change behaviors for a double click.
    Thanks!

    I can't find anything, but I'm still finding my way around!
    I don't think you need to double click and press F..... just pressing F should change views.
    Another way is to drag the "Full Screen" icon into the toolbar, and you can just click that.
