Force ipad to show full resolution photos ?

I am surprised and annoyed to find that all my photos on my IPad have been reduced in size to a preset maximum (2048x1024 or something close to that, I think) during the import process, I have many very large photos (autostitched landscapes etc), and I would very much like to be able to view them on the Ipad in their full detail - ie I would like to be able to pinch and zoom in to 1:1 resolution. Is there any way to make the IPad2 do this ?

Hmm. I tried the Simple Transfer app (thanks for the info) and it did indeed preserve the resolution of the files copied across - but not the size of the file itself. One photo (16394 x 2069 pixels) was 21MB on my computer and became 7.1MB on the IPad. However, when I looked at both photos on my PC (copied the IPad photo back across to PC by connecting IPad as a camera) they were identical, even though one was 3 times the file size of the other ?
It would be great if the IPad would simply zoom in to full magnification......as I expected it would. At least now I know I can take it on holiday and it's not going to ''optimise'' (ie reduce the detail and sharpness) all my photos.

ICloud and Photos app are not showing full resolution photos

Since migrating my iPhoto library to Photos, it has had problems showing the full resolution of photos. I initially had "Optimize Mac Storage" selected, but even when I had space available, it would not download the full resolution version of a photo. The loading circle in the bottom right corner would spin until it would be 'fully loaded' but the photo would not become the full resolution photo. I then checked "Download Originals to This Mac", but after it said it had downloaded the full sized versions of everything, the same problem occurred. I then went to iCloud and the iCloud Photos app and saw that some of my photos were displayed at about 1/3 the size on the screen. This wasn't just zoomed out. When I zoomed in closer the image did not resolve any better.
HOWEVER, downloading the photo from iCloud and opening it in preview gave the full resolution photo. I have attached an image showing the different levels of resolution from os x Photos app, iCloud, and the downloaded image (shown in Preview). I used the zoom slider on Photos until it reached 100%, I set the view in Preview to "Actual Size", but in iCloud to get the same dimension image, I had to zoom to 200%+.
Another thing that I noticed was that this doesn't happen to all of my photos:
It definitely happens to all of my photos taken with a Fujifilm X-M1, where I shoot in RAW, adjust and process in Lightroom, then export JPEGs to iPhoto. These tend to be slightly smaller (largest side 2048 pixels).
It doesn't happen to photos taken with 645Pro app (where I still export JPEGs to iPhoto with largest side 2048 pixels).
It happens to some, but not all, photos taken with the iPhone's native camera app
I am very confused. Also, even after having checked "Download Originals to this Mac" and letting it download everything, the Photo Library is only 3.77 GB. In iCloud it is ~10GB and my old iPhoto library was about ~15GB.

I now discovered that I can't edit photos in the Photos app (presumably because Photos is not communicating well with iCloud and can't download the full resolution photo to edit).

My iPad storage is showing full of photos however the photos app is empty?

the storage on my iPad is showing full. The photos component is the app with the most usage. However there are no photos showing on my photis app-there are no photos in the folder

Counter-check your space usage:

Bug with MP3 tags & full-resolution photo storage...

My birthday was last week and I got a new iPod classic 120 gb......
I am a music (67 gb) and photo buff (22 gb)......and I am having trouble with each. I am using the XP box to do the syncing, since my wife's iBook doesn't have enough storage space to hold all of our photos and MP3s.
1) Music...... for xmas and my birthday I got 7 new CDs.... I ripped all 7 into iTunes prior to syncing my iPod for the first time and all 7 work perfectly on my family's 3 computers (laptop running OS X 10.4.11, laptop running Ubuntu, and an old Windows XP box that I use as a file server). Yet they all don't show up correctly on the iPod.....
a) +Slumdog Millionaire+ soundtrack shows up in iTunes with each artist for each track listed correctly....yet on the iPod all songs are under "Various Artists"
b) +The Best of Clifford Brown+ & +The Juno sountrack+ don't show up at all on the iPod even though they register correctly in iTunes
c) Charles Mingus' +Mingus Ah Um+ & The Soundtrack for the movie Once.......shows up under album view on the iPod with "Charles Mingus" listed as the artist, but does not show up under Artist view.
d) The other two CDs work normally.
I ripped all of these CDs at the same time. They all work perfectly in iTunes and in Amarok on my laptop running linux. Why won't they show up correctly on my iPod? It is only these new CDs, the rest of of my giant library synced perfectly. I deleted the files and restored the iPod and the MP3s on the desktop from my back-up but that did nothing.
What is causing this? Should I re-rip the original CDs?
2) Photos.....I think this is just an Apple thing....but I thought I'd ask....I take LOTS of pics.....my pictures all synced up perfectly with my iPod. I selected the option to upload the full resolution photos as an added redundant back-up since i have the extra space on the iPod......but iTunes didn't take my existing file structure (each folder is an album)...it dumped my 20,000 plus photos into a single folder for March 15th (The day of the original sync) in the iPhoto style file system. The tags are all intact with the correct date, but iTunes didn't read them.
I know this is a personal preference thing.....but I stopped using iPhoto exclusively because it made backing up my photos too cumbersome between different operating systems. I've always found it ironic that it is easier to illegally share copyrighted MP3s out of iTunes then to share non-copyrighted family pics out of iPhoto. It seems my iPod is forcing me back into the iPhoto file system. Is there a way to get iTunes/iPod to just copy my existing file structure so that I can navigate through album folders rather then the giant mass of photos.

Shawn, the issue with the music is likely due to the fact that the CDs in question are compilations (or at least marked as compilations in iTunes).
When an album is labeled as a compilation, the iPod will not list its contents under the artist, instead, you need to enable compilations on the iPod and look there. It will also place the album art for these tracks at the end of Coverflow.
You can undesignate tracks as compilations by right clicking the tracks, choosing "Get Info" and go to:
Options tab (if you are highlighting multiple tracks)
Info tab (if you are highlighting single tracks)
I can't help with your photo issue (I only have music on my iPod), though you are probably correct that this is just the way Apple has chosen to file the photos.

How do i sync full resolution photos from computer to phone?

anyone know how to sync full resolution photos from computer to phone using itunes? itunes does not show the option to "include full resolution photos." photos i'd like to sync include both photos taken with iphone and photos i've taken with another camera. i also don't have to use itunes, whichever program gets the photos in their separate folders back onto my iphone in full resolution is fine. using itunes 10 / iphone 4S / ios 5.0.1
thanks!

As far as I know that's not possible when using iTunes. See this post: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15172235#15172235 and this one https://discussions.apple.com/message/15254581#15254581

Is there a big differnce when you check "include full-resolution photos"

I was wondering the major difference, becuase if I wanted to transfer the images from the ipod to another device, would that be the right way, and will the full res pics take up to much space on the ipod hard drive.
also how much compression is used when you don't use full res images?

if you're looking at tranferring photos from the ipod to something else, it's important to include the full resolution photos. if you have that box unchecked, the only images you get on the ipod are the little "thumbs" that display on the ipod itself.
the full res photos take up some room. i've got a test folder of 4 photos on attractive beast. "Photos" shows as 10.8 MB if i'm including the full res ... but only as 3.1 MB i'm not including the full res.

"Include Full Resolution Photos" option NOT available!

Hi -
I'm running iTunes v 7.5.0.20 on a Windows XP, SP2 machine. On all the tutorials / help topics for this version of iTunes, it states that I can move full resolution versions of all my photos onto my iPod by checking the "Include Full Resolution Photos" checkbox in the photo pane. This option isn't showing up AT ALL in iTunes. My iPod is selected in the "devices" area in the left pane, and I have clicked on the tab labeled "Photos." Here is exactly what appears:
- A "Sync Photos From" checkbox and drop-down that allows me to choose a folder
- Two options for selection. One says "All Photos" and the other says "Selected Folders" with a list of folders.
- the ONLY other thing it says in that pane is, in small type, a brief description of how iPod will sync the files.
There is NO CHECKBOX for including fell-resolution photos, and I need it.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Yes, I do have the touch, thank you for the help.
Since there appear to be only two zoom levels to photos on the touch, anyway, it appears I can't use it the way I wanted to. (I wanted to use a large map and be able to zoom in wherever -- I guess I'll just have to include lots of smaller maps.
I don't quite understand part of your answer -- do you mean that the full resolution photos could only be viewed AT full resolution if they'd been moved back onto another computer?
Thanks!

Iphoto does not support the resolution of my dslr camera...how do i upload full resolution photos?

iphoto does not support the resolution of my dslr camera...how do i upload full resolution photos?

You actually need to give information to get help - just stating an abstract problems (which is most certainly not a problem at all) gives the volunteers hearer nothing to work with to help you
What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? What exactly is the problem (iPhoto does support the resolution of your camera so that is NOT a problem)? what exactly are you doing? What error messages do you get? why do you incorrectly think that iPhoto does not support full resolution?
At this time your question is like my car won't start - why not? Could be anything from you did not put the key jun to being out of gas to having the engine stolen - no way to tell anything - except that the problem you claim is not true (at least in my example I would know that the car did not start)

Upload speeds are a major issue as they are generally much
much slower
than download speeds.
I don't know of any other way to do it faster to be honest.
Jpg, as already mentioned, is the most time effective
solutuion when
transfering huge image files via the net. If you know the
final output
size the image is going to be used at you can cut down on
excess
megabytes by making it that size before upload BUT you don't
always know
at what output size its going to be used.

How do I save pictures from iPhoto iPad app in full resolution?

When I import a large 6-9MB picture into the iPhoto app on iPad for editing, and then save it to my camera roll, the resulting picture is 150-200KB. How can I save it in full resolution after it's been edited?

When i import a large file 6mb to iphoto using itunes it become 1,2mb, maybe its the same to you and after edit it become 150-200kb
It seem that iphoto auto resize the picture, dont know why iphoto didn't give us freedom to choose the resolution when exporting

Full-resolution photos.

I would like to have the option in iTunes to disable optimization when syncing photos to my iPod Touch so I can view them in full-resolution.
How can I suggest this to Apple?

Taking the full resolution photos from my iPod and putting them on an eMac

I'd like to put all the 5000+ photos that are on my iPod (and my new iMac) onto my wife's eMac. HOWEVER, I really don't want to mess with anything else on her computer. (Truth be told, I'm under a "never touch my computer again" order from doing on too many "improvements".)
But I would like her computer as a back up on the family photos. So, how do I do it?
Also, there are several album's worth of somewhat good music that she's purchased using her computer. How do I get it onto my computer? (Again, without endangering her stuff in any way?
Thanks.

If you copied photos to your iPod using the full resolution option, enable disk use, open your iPod in Finder, open the photos folder then open the "full resolution" folder and drag the photos out of that folder to the desktop. For enabling disk use look here.

Mirror iPad Screen at full-resolution on HDTV?

Best I can tell from what I've read, there's no accessory I can use to hook my iPad to an HDTV via HDMI, DVI, or RGB analog, and still mirror the iPad's screen at full iPad resolution.
Is that true?

Thanks for confirming the impression I got from reading this forum, and various other sources.
What I'm mostly looking for some sort of way to have my iBooks (or Kindle books) show up on my big-screen HDTV. That, so that I can read while I exercise on my elliptical machine. I created a ... book rack ... for my iPad and attached it to the exercise machine, but, not surprisingly, it ends up jostling around to the point of being unreadable.
Probably the best bet would be to find some what to attach it to the wall instead of the exercise machine.
I read ... somewhere ... about a rumor that Apple might add iBooks, and possibly Apps capability in general, to AppleTV. As best I understand it, that plan apparently has either been scuttled, or it was just an unfounded rumor in the first place.

My iPhone 5s has no photos but it shows full of photos on iTunes

I have only 5 photos in my iPhone 5s but when I sync with iTunes it says that there are 297 photos.
I've tried doing a back up in my computer, then turning off iCloud, and resetting to Factory settings but then when I sync my iPhone to iTunes it goes back to 297 photos!? why? how can i get rid of all the photos?? Thank you!

Hey ksfarmer,
Check out the recommended troubleshooting steps below, from this link:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
