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 compress photos when emailing from iphoto? current photos are 7-8Mb each

How can I compress photos when emailing from iPhoto?
current photos are 7-8Mb each if I just attach them directly

Aperture won't delete the photos from your iPhone. Most users have settled on using Image Capture ater importing into Aperture to delete the photos from the iPhone.

Eurosign not displayed correctly when picked from database

Hi ..
I'm having a problem getting a eurosign stored in an Oracle Database to be displayed correctly in my Crystal Reports 11.5.
When using the built in (preview) Crystal Viewer, the eurosign is displayed correctly, but when I want to print the report directly to a printer or to export it to pdf the eurosign is displayed as a box?
It only haapens when i need to pick the eurosign from the database. If I insert in a textbox on the report, it will show correctly.
Please Help.
Best regards,
Jacob

What is the source of the text stored in the database. I ran into an issue a ways back where someone was copying news articles from a website into their database and the euro symbol would not display correctly (unless the option HTML Text Interpretation was used).
You might want to do a quick check to see if it is stored as an ascii character using a formula similar to the following;
asc(mid({database, x, 1}))
where x = the position of the euro symbol in the string.
The formula result should be 128.

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.

Lost photos,when transfer from a PC to Seagate External Hard Drive n then to Mac

Lost many photos,I have a lots of photos since I carry a camera constantly ,when transfer from a PC that crash to 5T Seagate External Hard Drive I thought I was saved(in a way) I use Time Machine to save most of my work n transfer then to IMac just the first time worked I saw the photos but when I did try to use it again, I can't see them, most are encrypted n many are lost without even touch the key to delete them from my library notice that while Organizing ,any ideas how to recover them from the Library o recovered from encrypted from Iphoto version 8.1.2 ?

You can use File Sharing in iTune to copy files over.

Direct print a pdf document when download from a website

Hi, all
Is that possible to print automatically when a pdf is download from a website with a acrobat plugin?
Jack

Don't think it is possible. If so, it would be with JavaScript. Be prepared to get complaints -- I sure would.

Why is Lightroom 5.4 not recognizing existing photos when importing from another catalog?

I have lightroom 5.4 now updated on my studio desktop computer and my laptop when working in the field. I have a folder of images on both computer catalogs and that inlcudes the negatives on each computer. I made a bunch of edits and changes on my laptop of that folder of images and then exported the changes as a catolog to import into my studio catalog but lightroom doesn't recognize the photos when I import from another catalog. Lightroom tries to add the photos as another folder even though the negatives are there and they are already imported into the desktop catog. Why doen't lightroom recognize they are the same images when I'm importing as catalog? I've always done this with past versions of Lightroom with no problems. I'm just exporting the previews since the negative files are already on both computers. What is wrong?

The folder hierarchy has to be exactly the same; the slightest thing can throw it off, an upper case on one machine and lower case on the other or a misspelling.

When downloading from a website I get error code - OSStatus -128 what is this?

What is the error message OSStatus -128? I get this when trying to download from a website.

Is this all sites, or just one in particular?

My problem using iPhoto Having the horizontal lines going through the photo when printing of a website

My problem is using the I Photo and printing a picture with horizontal lines going through it

Your topic title and topic content are a bit confusing? Are you printing a website page? That would be thru Safari or other browser.
Or is a photo from a website? If so how was it imported into iPhoto?
Also what system and iPhoto version are your running?
Does the photo print correctly from Preview or other application?
What's the pixel dimensions of the image?
How much free space do you have on your boot drive?

27" Cinema display flickers when woken from sleep

I've noticed that my 27" Apple Cinema display flickers briefly when woken from sleep.
I have had the display for 8 months, and haven't noticed this before.
It flickers (or flashes), just once when the display wakes when the computer is woken from sleep. It only affects the bottom third of the display.
Once it has properly woken, and flickered once, it then works o.k.
Has anyone else had this?
Thanks.
Bob.

Yeah - I'm trying to verify that 100% right now. I know that I won't get full functionality from the TB dispaly (no TB, FW or ethernet on the back of the monitor) but if I can get video and USB between the Mac and the displays, that would be enough. I haven't seen any docuemtnation anywhere deatailing wether or not that TB displays will work with existing video cards / Mac Pro's, or if I'll have to do a full round of upgrades including my Mac Pro and the ATI 5770. And as you know, there are no TB video cards on the market at this time. My timing basically *****...
My plan was to return the Cinema Displays while I still can, fall back to a spare Dell 21" that I have lying around the house for a few weeks (yukkkk..), and then figure out what to do with the TB diplsay as they get closer to release. I'm contempling upgrading my Mac Pro, but if I can stick with what I have, it would save me some cash.I woudln't even mind upgrading my video card, but I just dropped $2000 on these 2 Cinema Display's last week, and I feel like they are already outdated.
PS - I am constantly selling gear, so resale value and having the "latest and greatest" are pretty important to me, hence the interest in the TB displays.

Missing photos when importing from a Fuji s602zoom digital camera

I noticed that when I import the photos from my digital camera (as above), sometimes there are some missing. No error messages displayed and the import seems to finish OK.
This makes life difficult as I cannot now trust iPhoto and have to check every import.
Any suggestions would be helpful.

Neville:
On those occasions where the camera drops some photos are there any movies on the card?
A workaround is to use Image Capture to upload either to a folder on the Desktop first or directly into iPhoto. It's not recommended that you have iPhoto erase the card after import as there have been too many cases, yours for one, that have incomplete uploads and complete erasures.
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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Blurry photos when imported from iPhoto?

I'm noticing that when I insert photos from iPhoto into a movie project, they are blurry and this is hurting the quality of my projects. Does anybody know if there are resolution issues or compatibility issues that will help me with this? I've tried just sharpening the image in the editing pane but it's never very good! What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Here's the deal a little more clearly. I'm simply taking photos on my digital camera on "super high quality" - 3072 x 2304, and when I import them into my iMovie project, they go a little blurry.
Not sure if you are referring to preview window, full-screen previewing, or the final output video being "blurry" here. Suggest yo start off by tracing the image flow. Start off by opening your project package by "Control-Clicking" it in the finder and selecting the "Show Contents" menu option. Then look for a movie file names "Still Images" at this level. Double click this file to open it in the movie player but do not "Play" the movie. Instead, use the right and left arrow keys to step through the file and examine your images carefully. These images should be scaled down from your source images as previously explained. These are the images that iMovie '08 will use when creating your export/shared movie file later. How do they look and what are their dimensions? If all looks okay here and your "softening" is only in the "preview" display, I would likely try making a test export/sharing to see if the actual output looks as "poor" -- i.e., try to determine at what point things may be "going bad." At this point I'm not sure if you are simply "hyper-sensitive" regarding you photos, if iMovie is actually introducing a "normal" loss in quality due to processing, or if you may have a more serious application problem unique to your install for some particular reason.
Can I change settings anywhere so that the resolution's match? How do I know for example, if my project is set at 1920 x 1080 (all I know is I'm working in iMovieHD. Is it possible to import photos so that the resolution isn't automatically scaled up or down?
You can of course pre-scale or crop/scale manually before import into iMovie. However, if you do so in iPhoto/Aperture, I suspect the same scaling algorithm will be used as in iMovie. Have not done so myself, but if I did, I would likely use Photoshop to do this since you can try various resampling options to see which you may prefer for the given content.

Grayed out, weird photos when importing from Camera Roll

OK, wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? I use Photoshop's Bridge import to pull my photos of my iPhone 3Gs. When I do, I often have these weird photos - I'm not totally sure why they are happening. And, the good news is that once they are pulled, they appear to be fine, but I'm just looking to see if I'm not the only one.
They seem to be possibly related to:
a) being taken by an alternate camera app (I've tried several, Camera Genius, Snapture, CameraFlash and CameraZoom - yep, trying to get a better photo!),
b) being altered in some way (I've used Photogene to improve some, but it makes a duplicate?), or
c) being copied or saved to the CameraRoll from another program (I'm a Phanfare user and their Photon app is phenomenal).
So, some pictures of examples below, but as long as they images are OK when they come in, is it just fine? I always worry when something is not what it should be on an Apple device or within an Apple software.
Thx - Alexa
(Saved to Camera Roll from Photon - you can see though that others saved the exact same way are fine?):

Hi Lawrence -
Thanks for your response! I'm on a Mac so my options are different, but I think about using a more basic viewer and went to iPhoto and looked at the pictures on my phone as a device, and they all look fine (or some are not duplicates) - so maybe it's just a Photoshop import thing or ghosting issue?

MacBook Pro with retina display freezes when streaming from Vudu

I don't know if anyone has experienced this before. I have been trying to watch Non-Stop on Vudu tonight with a lot of issues. After streaming for a while, perhaps some 15-20 minutes or so, the video starts buffering non-stop (ha!). The problem is that once that happens, I cannot click on anything. The buffering doesn't stop, but even if I try to quit Safari, the thing freezes Safari and freezes the entire computer. I have been working with Apple for the past 2 hours and nothing that has been done seems to fix the problem. I even ran a diagnostic and it said that I had no issues.
This is the first time I have streamed from Vudu. I never had issues streaming from anywhere else. I am running a Netflix video in the background to see if it will freeze. Since it's not a full screen, I don't know if it will do the same. Nothing else seems to cause a problem, but what is bizarre is that it freezes the entire computer. In the case that the website was messing everything up, I don't know why it has to freeze the entire computer.
Has anyone else experienced this, and if so did you get to a solution and how?
Thanks!

I had this exact problem when watching streams on my Macbook pro retina 15". For the sake of testing, I tried opening the same stream i was testing in chrome, using 120 % of cpu, in safari, where it uses roughly 3-10 %. dont't know if this will solve your problem, but I advice trying it.
