Displaying photo's vertically from slideshow to appleTV

When I start a slideshow from photo's on my iphone and airplay to my apple TV, the pictures are mostly sideways, but if I just swipe through photo's they seem to be all displaying just fine. Do I need to configure something on my iphone?

I am disappointed and frustrated by the new Apple TV facility to display photo's.
My photo's are stored on my computer in Nikon RAW format (NEF) I don't want to have to convert them to JPEG's just to do a photo session on the TV. I would also end up with two copies of every shot which is a real pain. If google picasa can display raw images why not apple TV and iTunes.
With the old sync model I'd have to disagree - AppleTV would output to devices up to 1080p, so there was little point having video dimensions much beyond 1920x1080ish (non standard for any DSLR or digicam ) except to accomodate zooming/Ken Burns effects.
There was also little point sending 10-20MB files to AppleTV's limited storage when a JPEG would suffice.
With the new streaming model however this changes - itunes should be able to accomnodate RAW file streaming as nothing actually gets stored - it need not send the original RAW only a derivative. Th eonly problem is that for on the fly conversion, many RAW files would choke iTunes in the process, so what it needs is to pre-render the derivative file transparently to the user well in advance of needing to use it.
Personally I see no point in having true native RAW support on AppleTV.
AppleTV should really be used to show either the procesed RAW file content or an as shot derivative.
Assuming RAW display capability would give superior results is wrong.
The RAW file is the starting point, the digital negative, the derivative processed file is the final output.

  • Iphoto won't display photos or run a slideshow. Thumbnails all OK etc. Tried rebuilding library and reset Mac Air but no result.  Ideas please!!!!

    Iphoto won't display photos or run a slideshow - just a black screen. Can't see photos to edit etc. Thumbnails all OK and all else seems visible in the usual way etc. Tried rebuilding library and reset Mac Air but no result.  Ideas please!!!!

    and was told to go home and rebuild the photo library (there are 2257 photos). Did this but problem is still there.
    When you rebuild the library did you rebuild the database?  Also did you repair the library's permissions? Is this the First Aid window that you got?
    Those are the two options to use.
    Here's another fix you can try:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.>Click on the Add Library button,
    2 -  select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
    3 - make sure that in the rebuild window the checkbox  "Scavange orphaned photos" is checked.
    4 - now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    5 - in the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed. Click on the Create button.
    Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
    Note 2:  Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
    You'll have to recreate your slideshow after using this method.

  • Displaying photos when browing from a website..

    when i am on a website and want to add a photo...i hit the browse computer button on the website...the window to search comes up.... i go into the originals file in pictures...all it displays is the name of the pic...but no thumbnail...and since i dont rename every photo i import its a pain in the butt...how can i get the window to display thumbnails instead of names....hope i described this correctly....hope someone can help

    This is not how to upload a pic to a website. Surfing the iPhoto Library with a web browser or any other software is a good way to trash your iPhoto Library.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2Gmail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • How can I display the photos and videos from the Nano to Altec's iMV712

    I am trying to display photos and videos from a 3G Nano to larger display on Altec Lansings iMV712
    While I know I can view it from the cradle, I was wondering if a TV Out would work?
    Has anyone managed to get this to work?

    Jim VanLeeuwen has already given you the answer, but (for your future reference), when I saw your comment -- on an RSS feed -- that "The Apple help site is useless" I went to the Support pages and in the search box at the top, entered, "transfer photos from iPhone to Mac".  The top result was the one Jim VanLeeuwen offers.

  • Displaying photos on TV w/o AppleTV

    Does anyone have a recommendation for displaying photos on the TV? I don't have AppleTV, but I want to have photos continually running on the TV for a party I'm giving next week. I am willing to hook up my MacBook Pro directly to the TV or to burn the photos to a disc... I just don't think the latter is going to play long enough. Is there a recommended configuration for hooking the computer directly to the TV?

    AppleNovice
    A slideshow running continuously would seem to be the best answer. As to hooking your machine to the T.V. best to post on the forum for your specific machine.

  • HT204291 Using Azul media player app on my ipad  Apple tv will only display sound but not video from movies.  Any ideas on a fix.  I set mirroring to on but it still does not display video.  It will display photos and video recorded from my iphone.

    Using Azul media player app on my ipad  Apple tv will only display sound but not video from movies.  Any ideas on a fix.  I set mirroring to on but it still does not display video.  It will display photos and video recorded from my iphone.

    Here are the steps for AirPlay:
    Before starting Azul from your (running iOS 5.x/6.x) home screen where have have all your apps we need to turn on mirroring
    On your iPhone 4S/5 or iPad 2 or 3, double-click the Home  Button to view your recently-used apps.
    Swipe all the way to the right to until you see the  icon.
    Note: If the icon does not appear, go to the "If AirPlay Mirroring is not visible or available on your mobile iOS device" section.
    Tap the  icon to see the list of available AirPlay devices.
    Enable AirPlay Mirroring in this menu by tapping on an available Apple TV, then sliding the Mirroring slider to ON.
    Now you should be seeing your iPad/iPhone on your TV.
    Start up Azul now and using the settings icon on the top right corner go to the option that say "TV out" ON.
    When you do that you will see an Orange screen
    Now click "Done" and play the video you want to watch and it will AirPlay

  • My Mac Air iphoto will display thumbnails but will not display photos in any way - single photo / slideshow etc - any ideas

    My Mac Air iphoto will display thumbnails but will not display photos in any way - single photo / slideshow etc - any ideas?

    Are you seeing this
    when you double click on a thumbnail file?  If so it's an indication that the file path/link between the thrumbnail and original, full sized file has been broken.  Therefore, and assuming you're running iPhoto 9 or later, try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • IPhone 4 album display photo is not the "KEY" photo from Aperture

    Aperture sets a "KEY" photo to best describe the contents of an album of many photos. iPhone 4 ignores this key photo and uses a random, often obscure photo to display. How can I correct this?

    Solved it.
    In Aperture I selected all of my photos, and then from the menu selected Photos > Update Previews.
    Voila.

  • When trying to view photos from a Facebook post, Firefox won't display photos

    I can view Facebook photos on the home page and in photo albums. But Firefox will not display photos on the home page when I click on the photo to see the larger version.

    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    * Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    * Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    * Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    * Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    * Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
    * If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • Export photos FROM slideshow?

    Can I create an album FROM a slideshow?
    I created Album A (tons of photos) and slideshow A. I duplicated slideshow A and deleted all the photos I didn't want to include, that became slideshow B. Now I need to export the photos from slideshow B into a format I can burn to disc - photos, NOT the slideshow itself. Can I do this without having to recreate the wheel, and have to pick out the photos I want one by one in a new album? Thanks!

    There is an easy way to keyword those photos so you can group them for exporting to the desktop.
    1 - in the slideshow double click on the first photo to bring up the edit window.
    2 - type Command+K to bring up the keyword pane
    3 - assign a unique keyword, "xxxx", created for this process to the photo.
    4 - hit the forward arrow key on the keyboard.
    5 - assign the keyword to the next photo. Repeat until all photos have been keyworded.
    6 - create a smart album: keyword is "xxxx".
    7 - export the photos from the smart album.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • In windows live photo gallery it says an error is preventing the photo or video from being displayed

    in windows live photo gallery it keeps saying an error is preventing the photo or video from being displayed

    Hi Frank.
    Thanks for the response.
    Agreed, the pertinent question is why can't my colleague edit the JPG exported by Aperture. It's probably also worth pointing out, the same problem occurs with JPGs exported from iPhoto.
    The Windows software usually plays nicely with JPGs by all acounts, just not the ones I send - which I do via eMail or my public space on Mobile Me incidently.
    So, another key question is: all settings being equal (color profile, quality, etc.) are the JPGs as produced by iPhoto and Aperture indistinguishable from those produced by other apps on other platforms - i.e. does the use of JPG enforce a common standard?
    If that is the case, I suspect ours might be a permissions issue.
    According to the Microsoft support page on editing in Windows Live Photo Gallery, the inability to edit a picture is commonly caused by unsupported file type, or read-only attribute set on the file.
    Unfortunately, he and I are not in the same place, and he's not particularly au-fait with this type of problem solving. Hence, before involving him, I'd like to know:
    1. it's possible (i.e. someone else does it), and,
    2. what's involved (at my end and/or his).
    Thanks again,
    PB

  • Displaying Photo Titles for Photos Moved From iPhoto

    I have added comments in the 'titles' area of a number of photos. When I import the photos to iMovie, the photo titles are lost.
    Is there a way to maintain the photo titles, when photos are imported from iPhoto to iMovie.
    Thanks

    I found the solution, but adding titles in iMovie, rather than bringing the titles from iPhoto.

  • A few questions re displaying photos (Am I missing something?)

    I am a Windows XP user with a brand new AppleTV. I'm generally happy with it but am not impressed with the way it handles photos. Am I mistaken or is there no way to do the following?
    - View subfolders of photos individually (it would seem not, based on others posts here.)
    - View a slideshow that spans more than one folder.
    - Set up a selective slideshow in advance (like a music playlist.)
    - View thumbnails of the images in a folder, and go directly to the one I want to see.
    - Jump ahead several photos in a folder instead of having to page through every single one.
    - Zoom in on a portion of a photo that I have paused.
    - Browse photos from the hard disk without syncing them.
    - View photos by metada (EXIF tags, maybe.)
    I know some of the above are a bit of a stretch, but others seem pretty straightforward. Is it really so hard to display a page of thumbnails? My cheap digital camera does it when I hook it up to my TV. Am I missing some way to do any of the above? What are the odds Apple will enable them in a future update? Thanks.

    I totally agree with regard to the Auto/Advanced modes. Maybe the entire idea of streaming/browsing photos from the HD could be buried in the Advanced mode and hence never be an issue for those who want to retain the interface's initial simplicity.
    It seems like looping could be added so easily. I used to keep my photos in folders arranged by year (2008), containing subfolders of months (2008_01, 2008_02, etc.) which in turned contained subfolders for each day (20080101, 20080102, etc.) I wanted to be able to view each day's folder individually through AppleTV, so I have moved all the individual "daily" folders into the My Photos root level. This is all well and good (except that scrolling through that many folders is a little clunky*), but it also means that no slideshow can display photos from more than a single day. Adding one option -- "Slideshows span folders: Yes/No" would solve that problem and make it much for flexible for me (and others, I presume.)
    I know, I know, I am attempting to use the device for purposes for which it was not intended. Still, it's a fun little box, especially for the price (and who knew I'd get such a kick out of watching YouTube on my tv?)
    On the other hand, whoever incorporated the 24-hour limitation for watching an entire rented movie must live in a household without little children around, but that's a subject for another thread.
    *Here's a crazy idea: Maybe the basic "Auto" version of the AppleTV should remain exactly as it is, and the full-featured "Advanced" mode require the purchase of an optional advanced remote control that incorporates the famed iPod clickwheel for scrolling quickly through subfolders and/or very long lists of folders?
