How do you get the screensaver that takes your iPhoto pictures and make one big picture? Used to have it on 10.6.8 but cant find it

Used to have it on 10.6.8 but cant find it. It took all the pics from iPhoto I think then made a pic out of them as a screen. Help?

Ah, welcome to my world...the world of progressive vs interlaced, RGB vs YUV, compression/decompression,10 bit or 8 bit, 4:4:4 vs 4:0:1 vs 4:1:2, color space (etc, etc, etc..!)
There's HD, DV, HDV, NTSC, PAL and more - its a place where acronyms roam free and multiply daily.
You're in for a fascinating journey that will soon have you understanding things you never dreamt you'd need to know, then when you think you've got to grips with 'em, you'll discover you don't really know the first thing about them...!
Fortunately you've got Bogie, Patrick, Shane, David and more to take you along for the ride.
I will suggest (and probably be corrected) that what you're seeing is probably interlaced footage on your progressive monitor. (You mentioned you're watching the DVD on your computer.) Your TV has far fewer lines of resolution than your computer monitor, so FCP works within those constrictions. Also your TV runs at 29.97 frames a second, which is actually 60 frames a second as each frame is divided into two fields, which comb together to for one frame. These combs are very much evident when watching a DVD on a computer. Even high budget Hollywood films have this problem, especially when the camera or subject is moving. There is no way around this if you're outputting on DVD or NTSC.
You could create an Progressive file, which won't do this on your monitor, but thats a whole other ball of wax...
Welcome though. Its all good. (And the people on this site are very helpful, I've learnt a lot over the last 5 years by simply reading these posts.)

    if you deleted a  device off of find my iphone.how do you get the device to start back up agian and put it back on find my iphone? becuase i have delted my dads iphone acedentily of find my iphone and it is nownot working. his phone is just staying at a black screen with a loading circle on it. i need to know how to fix this..like do i go the to apple store or the carrier store or can i fix it at home?

    Try these two ways to fix the iPhone (in order).  If neither works, you would have to take it to the store.
    1.  Reset the iPhone.  Hold the on/off and home buttons togehter for about 10 seconds.  If it works, you'll get the Apple logo and then something good should happen.
    2.  Try recovery mode as described here:

    If one of these work, you can then re-introduce the iPhone to Find My iPhone by doing Settings > iCloud > Find My iPhone = "On" on the device.

  • How do you get the iPhone to take you to a direct message when you search for something in Spotlight Search?

    Everytime I search for  a message, the iPhone takes me to the bottom of the text screen. How do I find that exact message without having to search by myself? Are there any options to change this?

    You aren't crazy.
    Adding the photo to contacts on the computer gets you the smaller pix when people call.
    Assign the photo on the phone itself and you get full-size pix.
    Additionally I took a few test photos from the iphone and tried setting them to contacts. This didnt work either.
    So, that certainly should work. Try it again? Try it with a brand new contact, maybe it is not overwriting a previously existing picture.
    I suppose there is a small possibility that Apple thought this differing behavior was a bug instead of a feature and "fixed" it with a recent update, but I doubt it.

  • How do you get the photos/videos off your iPod touch?

    Is it through itunes because I can't seem to figure it out. Would appreciate if someone can help me out with this.

    I'll solve my own (and others I'm sure) problem. The Appir iTouch iOS 4.1 .pdf manual was of no help as all it says is: "PC: Follow the instructions that came with your photo application." No help there.
    When you connect your iPod Touch 4th gen via USB, you should see it in the My Computer list of hard drives as a Digital Camera. You can open it up and see the camera files. Note: This in not the Photos as in the ones you put on your iPod via iTunes. Repeat: You cannot use iTunes to get the pictures & videos you take to your computer via iTunes. Strange.
    Also see Apple tech note: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1500 This is how to disable the popup that happens to many when you connect your iPod and Windows whats to know what application to run.
    For me, I could not delete the files nor could I Drag & Drop (Copy / Paste) all the files from the iPod to my PC. It would stop transferring data after about 750 files. So I had to find a solution. I searched for programs that supported WIA protocol, which is how files are transferred.
    I tried all of the apps at http://www.photo-freeware.net/transfer-tools.php and the only one that worked.
    That was Cam2PC. One problem I encountered was that after transferring, it opened a Preview window. Unfortunately it doesn't do Quicktime, so when trying to display a thumbnail view of movies, it crashed. You can configure it not to open the preview window after transferring.
    Another program to use is FastStone Image Viewer 4.2. No problems transferring or previewing. It doesn't show all files transferred when it opens it's preview window, notably Quicktime files. It does show screen dumps (.png) files. It is fast, small and so easy to use.
    At last but not least, Nikon ViewNX 2 software. It transfers fast, has many options. Just what you would expect from a digital camera company. It previews Quicktime but not screen dumps. Downside: The program takes longer to load than the others.
    So I'll be using FastStone Image Viewer 4.2 mostly. Hope the above helps out anyone that had the same problem as I did.

  • How do you get the passcode on reset your iPhone

    how doyou get your passcode to reset your iphone

    If you don't know the passcode you will have to restore the phone. If you use the computer that the phone last synced to it will remove the passcode. For any other computer you will have to use Recovery mode, which will erase everything on the phone.

  • How do you get the previous user of this computer off and put your name on the mac

    This is a used computer and the previous owners name is till on everything. How do I get rid of hers and put mine in the system?

    When you get your 10.6 install DVD. Put your 10.6 install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window.
    Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. You should see your hard drive in the left hand column along with your other drives. Click on the drive and select the Erase tab. Set the format value to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and click the Erase button. After that has finished select the Partition tab. Type in a Name for your hard drive and select how many partitions you want from the Volume Scheme. The usual setting is one partition. Click on the Options button after you've selected a partition to make sure it's set for GUID. Then click the Apply button and after the Partitioning is done quit Disk Utility.
    You can now follow the instructions on the install screen 
    After you’ve installed 10.6 then use the 10.6.8 combo updater to finish it off. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399

  • How can you get the itunes app onto your computer so I'm able to get music off my ipod?, how can you get the itunes app onto your computer so I'm able to get music off my ipod?

    i got a new computer and im unable to get the itunes app on there to conect my ipod to it and get my music and pictures off of it. does anyone know how im able to download itunes on a laptop?

    Click Itunes at the top of this page and download it.
    The ipod is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You should copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • How do you get the indicator that marks emails as "read" to work properly?

    Every time a new email comes in it's never marked as unread. The computer is on a wired network in an office where no other Mac users have this problem. The usual diagnostics have been performed and the computer seems normal in all other operations. Any ideas? The office geeks are stumped as well.

    There's an option in Mail > Preferences > viewing tab > check "Display unread messages with bold font".

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    The link will only appear if you have a rescue email address. Creating one requires supplying two of the answers.
