How do you import while using full screen in iPhoto?

I am running Lion with the latest version of iPhoto, and have been getting used to the full screens.  Is there any way to import photos into iPhoto while the full screen function is enabled?  I am using an iPhone 4 and a Sony NEX-5, each of which would normally open iPhoto when they were plugged in.  Now either nothing happens, and the full screen stays open, or the full screen goes away and I have the menu bar, but it does not default to the import interface.  I have image capture set to open iPhoto with each of these cameras.  Just a bug?   Thanks. 

what's the point of this "full screen" mode when one actually loses features of an application?
i think apples full screen mode is close to being the worst implementation of this feature ever.
not to mention that when running two monitors, the second monitor is practically useless.

    Also try Esc key.

  • How do you exit out of full screen mode for FCPX? ESC does not work.

    Hi guys. I cannot seem to find the exit to full screen viewing mode in final cut pro x. Escape key doesn't do the trick. There are no "exit full screen" buttons that pop up. It is confusing and I have to force quit the program every time I use full screen! Please help!

    There are two full screen modes in FCP X when running in MacOS X Lion.
    Fullscreen playback:
         Enter using the double arrow on the viewer or with command-shift-F.
         Exit with the Escape key.
    Fullscreen editing:
         Enter using the double arrow on the top right of FCP X's windows or control-shift-F.
         Exit using escape or control-shift-F.
    This is how it works for me.

  • When viewing a note in the bridge how do you switch to landscape full screen mode?

    When viewing notes in the Bridge, there are two modes after pressing messages.  One is portrait where the note being viewed shows in full screen after going to it from the inbox list.  The other is in landscape where the inbox list is on the left and notes on the right.  I want to zoom to a full screen landscape view of the note.  I know that the device is capable of displaying a note this was as this is what you see when you touch the icon in the upper left corner to go directly to a new note or an urgent one, but I can't figure out how to get there from the normal note display.

  • How do you remove the Firefox full screen app

    I installed the full screen app to watch videos, but now I have no controls to do anything. I would like to delete the "full screen" app. This is installed on a nexus 10 running 4.2.2 jellybean.

    Is it this one: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/full-screen-252573/ Full Screen mobile]? In order to get to the menu, you might need this information from that page:
    ''To return to normal mode, press and hold on a web page (or press your device's menu button), and choose "Full screen" again.''

  • How do you import  (or convert) XMP metadata into iPhoto '08?

    Having recently made OS X my primary operating system, I switched from using Picasa/Windows Photo Gallery on Vista to catalogue my photos to iPhoto '08. However, the 7,000+ pictures I have all have XMP metadata tags. None of them show up in iPhoto '08 after import. Needless to say, I am not looking forward to having to retag 7,000+ pictures in iPhoto.
    I know people in various forums, here and elsewhere, have said that iPhoto '08 does not do XMP at all. Is this true? Is there a workaround or plugin? I find it weird that XMP has been an open standard since May, and 6 months later, there isn't a plugin or solution, especially from Apple. Unless I am just daft and missing something obvious, which is entirely possible.
    At any rate, I would really appreciate any help in me not having to retag over 7,000 pictures...thanks in advance!

    mrbofus:
    Do you still have the PC and the photos on it? If so you might look into the demo version of iView MediaPro and see it if can read those Picasa files and embed the metadata into the files like it can when reading an iPhoto library on the Mac platform. If it can, you'll be able to write the metadata to the files and bring them over again to the Mac and import into a new library. This is only speculation as I'm not conversant in Windows at all.
    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 created 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 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.

  • I have recently upgraded to Firefox 5.0. I am now unable to use full screen mode when watching you tube. i've never had this problem before.

    i can't think of anything else to add. i've always been able to use full screen mode in firefox, it still works on vimeo and it still works on NEtflix..

    What happens when you try to use full screen mode -- button is ineffective, video doesn't display, etc.?
    By the way, Adobe has issued a couple of security updates recently, so you might want to update your Flash plugin.

    Highly appreciate your help.
    Thank and Regards
    Pramod

    Hi Pramod,
    This FPM navigation is achieved using settings made in Launchapd Customizing ( LPD_CUST ).
    a) Execute Tran LPD_CUST
    b) Go to Role HAP - Double Click to open it.
    c) Open the second folder on the LHS menu - there you will find 2 entries
    d) Click on second entry - in the entry setting you can see that it is configured for WD Application  - HAP_MAIN_DOCUMENT
    e) Click on button Show Advanced Parameters
    f) There you will find a input box named as Window Features - here you can specify window features like
    height=700,width=1100,position=center,menu=no,status=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,toolbar=no
    save the settings come out and test ur app again.
    change the height and width and other features as per ur req.
    Regards

  • IPhoto 11: How to view "all photos" while in full screen mode

    In iPhoto, when it's not in full screen mode, if you click photos in the sidebar (under Library), you get a nice view of ALL your photos, and you have the option to sort them by event. When you go from this view straight to full screen mode, it stays this way, which in my case is particularly useful since I like to move photos around from event to event. However, staying in full screen mode, as soon as I click an any other of the menus at the bottom (events, faces, places, albums, projects), I cannot find anyway to get back to the "all photos" view, other than to take it OUT of full screen mode, click on "Photos" in the side bar, and then go back to full screen mode. Either I am missing something that is glaringly obvious, or this is a rather annoying oversight by Apple. It seems like it would be natural to have "Photos" be one of the options along with Events, Faces, Places, Albums and Projects in full screen mode. Right now the only work around I've been able to come up with (aside from going back and forth with fullscreen mode), and to hit "command F" while in full screen mode, and then type "i", which will give me what I am want only because all my photos start with "i". Not a very elegant work around, I know, but perhaps I am missing something very obvious.
    Thanks for any advice!

    In case my description isn't clear, here is a screenshot of exactly the view in full screen mode I am talking about  that I can't seem to return to once I leave it, other than to go back to non full screen mode or use the search trick.

    Hello,

    many thanks,

    Running Mavericks, yes:

    With Mavericks, you can use full screen apps on each display independently. Open an app full screen on one display. On your other display, open an additional app as either windowed, or full screen.
    To switch between full screen apps, move your pointer over to the app and click. You can also use Mission Control or press Command-Tab to change your focus.
