Blurry slideshow photos when exported to iTunes

My photos in iPhoto are crisp and clear, but when I export a slideshow (into iTunes) they come out blurry. What am I doing wrong?

Nope.

Why would I want to change JPEG quality of photos when exporting them from iPhoto?

Why would I want to change JPEG quality of photos when exporting them from iPhoto? Changing the quality of the print changes the size of the saved file and thus impacts the speed at which it is moved on the internet. But other than size of the file, what is the advantage of changing the quality?

I have no idea why you would want to do anything
Some people want lower quality to reduce file size for different reasons
It is an option - if you do pot want to do that do not use that option

Pixilated Photos When Exported for Web

When I export from Aperture to a Web Gallery, my photos get pixelated. The originals in Aperture do not look like this, nor do the photos when viewed as a straight JPEG. I originally started with iPhoto to edit and organize, but have since moved my library over to Aperture. Are there issues with resizing photos? I typically do 5x7.
I've tried several different paths, with similar results:
* Using Aperture to publish from a gallery template
* Using iPhoto to export a photo album to iWeb which I publish to a folder
* Publishing from iWeb to .Mac web page
* Publishing from iWeb to a .Mac Web Gallery
A good example is the middle photo in the second row titled "Hot Bodies". The edges of the white lettering and graphics looks horrible in slideshow.

or this photo from gallery

I'm seeing similar results on Windows and Mac, using Firefox and Safari.
I'm getting a little desperate, as I've invested a lot of time organizing and editing my photos! <sigh> Assistance greatly appreciated.

Check that the export preset you are using hasn't been changed from what you think it should be (in terms of x/y pixel size, PPI, JPEG quality setting, etc.)

Quality Issues when exporting to itunes

I'm a new user to garageband and have been learning quite a lot about it and how to work with it.
My band recorded some songs tonight on garageband. I have a basic mixer hooked into the line in port of my macbook pro. When I tried to export it to itunes, the completed song, the quality from gb3 to itunes was horrible. In gb, it sounded really good, yet when it played back in itunes, it was of quite low quality. I'm curious if there are any preferences or advance options I missed when exporting from GB into itunes.
Thanks in advance.

Hey thanks for everyone's help. I played with the input volume, track volume and master track volume and the songs sound fine (well, still a bit overmodulated, but nothing I can do, it was recorded live).
The songs tend to sound better when I export them from itunes under WAV settings. The sound is tons better.

How to preserve or embedded history in photo when exporting?

Does anyone know how to preserve a photo develop history when exporting to new folder so that editing can continue?

Thanks Jim and DJ - perhaps my process needs to change. I use a folder structure within each photo shoot. Capture (for all raw files) - Master (for working photos that are being edited / developed) - and finally an Output folder for photos being printed or posted to web etc. I export to each. I understand that you can always go back to the original raw capture or any point in the history but sometimes I want to compare different editions of develop settings for an image against each other while preserving both. When using a copy of an image the develop settings only start at time of copy and likewise when using an exported image the history starts from the export going forward
What I want to do is take photos from the various Master folders that have develop changes to them and move or copy them to another folder; as example a "2015 Art Show folder" for an upcoming photo exhibit etc. and then do additional develop changes specific for the Art Show - being able to see the previous develop settings would be useful during this edit phase and you could continue to work in the one folder without needing to hunt around to numerous folders all over Lightroom
I hope that explains what I am trying to do, I appreciate any ideas you may have
Thanks,
Paul

Tracks not lining up when exporting to Itunes

Hello!
I put together a multi-track song, mostly software instruments. Finally, I added a live vocal track. Sounds find on GB, but when I export to Itunes, the vocal track is delayed...How do I fix it?!
Thanks for anyone's help!!

hahahaha this kat's got 9 lives dudes :P
I just finished writing an exam, so that's why i haven't been responding.
ANYWAY.
So the effects I used: I think I had a flanger on one of the guitars, and on the vocal i'm not quite sure, i doubled my choruses and used "ambient" or whatever, but I forget what I used on the original one.
I've been trying to fix this for about a month now.
Thanks for ALL your help!

My recordings sound so different when exported to iTunes. What am I doing wrong?

Google's been useless in finding answers.
I made a couple songs. They sound perfect on Garageband. After exporting, the songs sound awfully mixed on iTunes. I mean, awful. I've tried messing with iTunes EQ, Garageband visual EQ, Garageband compression (not that I fully understand compression), the auto compression when exporting, and good ol fashioned volume control. Nothing changes for the better but it always sounds correct on Garageband and god awful otherwise.
I have a chord that plugs in from my mac to my instruments so I use good mix of both real instruments and software instruments if that makes any difference.
On a side note, the recordings only sound good on my personal headphones. Heaven forbid I use a car stereo or any sort of speakers.
If anything, what can I do to remedy this problem?
Many thanks for any help you can give.

There is a fix coming out soon for this. In the mean time go to settings and put the date forward one year. then try. once you have access then put the date back.
hope it helps

Drum drops out when Export to iTunes

hi, im using DFH2 in garageband and ive got 4 guitar tracks with eq and pynamics processors on them as well as the drums, everytime i try and use export to itunes and try to listen to the final audio file in itunes im getting alot of dropouts on the drum tracks, does anyone know why this would be occuring and how i can stop it?
thanks

I just experienced the same problem this very momemt but with some variation.
I exported 10 songs from GB to iTunes (as mixes), 8 of the songs played perfectly in iTunes but on one of the songs the drums were barely audible even though they were at the right levels during mixdown. Stranger yet: The other song had ALL the tracks completely silent EXCEPT for the drums I always mix with 100% LOCKED tracks so I'm stumped as why this happened. Fortunately all was well when I imported those two songs again. Both songs only contained about 8 tracks each. The other thing that concerns me is that the arrow often appears red during importing but I've never had dropouts before. I don't recall what the color was during the importing of the two "error songs" but all the tracks were locked and there were very few tracks. I thought locking all tracks was the silver bullet in preventing errors. This is kind of daunting because pretty soon I am going to be importing about 100 individual tracks to iTunes which will be burned as audio files and dumped to Pro tools. It would be very difficult to listen to EVERY track for errors but perhaps this won't happen with individual tracks. Besides locking tracks I know the other tips to saving CPU power and such but these songs had so few tracks and uncomplicated data in the instrumentation. It seems very odd.
Sorry for the long post!

How to really resize photos when exporting?

I need to cut and resize images to 170x170px and I am trying to do the job by using iPhoto 08.
No problem for editing and cutting the photos, but when I use the Export command to resize them to 170x170 I see that only photos with a bigger pixel size will be reduced to 170x170 while smaller ones eg. 119x119px are not resized to 170x170.
I know I will loose detail but it is what I need to do. I also want that the pictures are using 72 dpi and not more.
Is there any way to do this using iPhoto08 ?
Which other software can I try to do these simple and common operations?
Thanks

I also want that the pictures are using 72 dpi and not more.
Don't worry about dpi unless those small file are for printing. The only values you need to consider are the pixel dimensions.
To enlarge an image from 117 x 117 to 170 x170 you'll need an application like Photoshop Elements for Mac which can change pixel size, dpi and print size like this.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Slideshow won't export to itunes

I've previously been able to export man slideshows to itunes. I'm now using iphoto 9.4.1 and OSX 10.4.7. I can create and watch the slideshow fine but when I try and export it, the process starts but there is no progress on the progress bar and the picture is black/blank. Itunes opens up after a moment but nothing happens. Have repaired and rebuilt library. Updated flip4mac. Exported slides to desktop. Tried smaller shows with new pics. Have 100GB space available. Nothing is working. Can't reload from app store because 10.7.5 does not support the latest version of iphoto, needs 10.9 or greater. Any tips?

Hi rholcomb01,
It sounds like you are having issues with exporting a slideshow from iPhoto, a frustrating situation to be sure. I would suggest using the steps in this article to troubleshoot -

Blurry Interactive PDF when exporting from InDesign CS6

Hi there, wondering if anyone can help me out with this question,
I've created a new document in InDesign, with intent set to 'web'. I have set the page size to exactly the correct pixels that I need. I've inserted my image, which is 72dpi and the exact pixel size I need. Everything looks good, and seems to be correct.
Problem occurs when I go to export.
I'm exporting the PDF as 'Interactive', but no matter what setting I put it at, the finished PDF seems to push the final view by about 30%? and therefor makes the PDF blurry.
It seems a little crazy to me, as everything seems in place and correct?
Any suggestions?

Acrobat views files at 96 ppi.
You can see this in Edit>Preferences and go to Page Display.
Solution - I'd use 96 ppi images.

Why does my project not end where I want it to when exported to iTunes?

I need help with this. In Logic Pro X, my song, when in the Logic window, lasts 2:08 exactly, immediately after the last track is stopped. The project itself is at 120 BPM and lasts for 64 measures. I, however, have run into a problem where the song lasts 2:15 when I export it to iTunes. This normally wouldn't be a problem for me, but I need my song to end immediately after the last track ends, at 2:08. I have the ending set to measure 65. Can anyone help me?

The Audio Tail box isn't checked, and I have my end marker set to 65 1 1 1.
Is there something I'm missing?

How do I keep the time and date stamp of my photo when exporting from iphoto

Hi,
I notice the time and date stamp changed when I exported the photos from iPhoto 11 to a external HDD.
When I looked at the information about the exported photos on my external HDD the time and date changed to the time and date of when I exported the photos form iPhoto instead of keeping the time and date information of when the photo was taken as it appears in iPhoto.
I thought the time and date stamp is in the meta data of the photo file and can't be changed, am I correct?
Thanks,

Kyzelios,
How can view the meta data from "finder" or do I need a 3rd party app?
"Get info" function only gives me the creation date which is the export date and time.

Slideshows Disappear when Exporting HTML

I just upgraded to the most recent version of Muse Version 6.0 Build 751. I have a small intranet site for my company that I built with muse and have had no issues with it for about the past year (I started out using the beta). I usually update the content on it every week or two and it's all static, mostly things like newsletters and internal memos. Since it's an internal site I just export the html to the folder where it is hosted. Today all of the slideshows on the site disappeared after I exported it. I thought it might be a glitch so I exported it again. Same problem. They are just completely gone. So I thought maybe there was an issue with the old slideshows I had created in a previous version not totally jiving with the newest build. So I deleted a slideshow and rebuilt it. Exported the html and it's still gone. If I preview the site in muse or preview it in a browser everything is there. For some reason when I export it all of the slideshows disappear. Below is a screenshot of the site when I preview it in the browser. The next screenshot is what the site looks like after the export. Someone please help me out!!

Blurry iphone photos when using the flash

Whenever I take photos with the iphone flash they come out overbright in a small section or blurry. I am guessing that maybe there is a protective layer of film covering the flash.
Is there some protective coating the is supposed to be removed from a new phone?
Is there documentation about the distance photos must be taken for the camera to work correctly?
Thanks,
Gregg

Also check to be sure you don't have a case with a cutout too close to the flash. If you think this might be the case try removing the case and taking a flash picture to see that clears it up.
