Images from iphoto appear as a long narrow strip no matter what i do, so i only see the top 10% of image

using custom idvd template, i add photos from iphoto, and they appear as a first chapter in the drop zone. when i go to play the slideshow/dvd i have a long
narrow strip showing the top 10% of the photo. i tried to change the size of the drop zone outline, and i was unable to do so. i have started with 15 images
some music. thank you for suggestions.

The dpi setting is meaningless in the case. You will need to crop the image to the approximate aspect ratio and content you want shown and then reduce the PIXEL size of the image as need.
Keep in mind that for an NTSC DVD the entire screen size is really only something like 640 x480 pixels (in digital camera square pixel size).

I closed the lower image of my persona by mistake- how do i get it back? I can now only see the top image.

There is no more "persona image" for the lower bar, only the top one. For example, i have the audrey hep. persona right now and i can see her quote and image, but then where there should be the persona on the bottom of my screen there is none. So i cannot see the swirls that comes with the persona.

I've upgraded from snow leopard to mountain lion and now my screen resolution and mouse pointer are messed up. My dock doesn't show up on the screen and the login is half off the screen on the right. Only seeing the top left quadrant screen.

I have already tried changing the resolution in system preferences. It didn't do anything.

Please confirm what Mac this is - this is the iMac (Intel) community, but your profile says Mac Pro.
If the latter, provide some info about the monitor.

Difference between importing images from iphoto via drag & drop vs 'media' button

Hi (long time reader of this community, but my first post),
i'm creating a huge document (approximately 200 pages) in Pages (5.0.1, Using Maverick on a 27 inch iMac).
In the new version of Pages the "Media" button only produces small images that makes it difficult for me to choose which photo i want.
Is there a difference between importing images from iphoto drag & drop vs 'media' button.
Or is it better to just drag and drop the original jpegs (which i also have in a folder).
Is Pages the best program to use for this type of project? it is a profolio with about 4 photos, text, text boxes etc on each of the 200+ pages.
any help much appreciated.

Pages 4.3 might be up to the job. I very much doubt Page 5.0.1 is. It lacks more than 90 features of its predecessor and is very buggy to boot. You probably have an iwork09 folder in your Applications folder. I suggest you trash Pages 5.0.1 and use Pages 4.3 until Apple makestheir new "Eddie Cue" ready for prime time (if, that is, they ever do).

Removing Images from iPhoto

I don't know how to remove images from iPhoto 8 or 6. I prefer to use PhotoShop Elements and I want to move the iPhoto images from wherever they are into a separdate folder so that I can put them into Bridge CS3 and use Elements. But I cannot figure a way to do this. Thanks.

I purchased the Duplicate Annihilator that you recommended and with about an hour it had detected almost 5,000 duplicates, so I went ahead and identified them, also did the thumbs and found about 300 there, so I put them in the trash and deleted all that came up and now I am down to 5,000 - pictures. I will run it again tomorrow
Thank you for your help, and a bargain to boot, I must tell my Mac store about this!
Very much appreciated.... the reason that I hesitated to bring over the old iPhoto is that a few months back a bunch of my pictures from there 'disappeared' -so I didn't want to import a corrupt application?
Happy trails

I have Office 2011 which includes Word. Ever since downloading Mavericks, when I try to send a two-page word document, some recipients get only one page. Also sometimes when I burn an image from iPhoto on to a disc, only part of the image appears. Why?

I have Office 2011 which includes Word. Ever since downloading Mavericks, when I try to send a two-page Word document by email, some recipients get only one page. Also when burning an image from iPhoto (usually no larger than 1mb) on to a disc, only part of it appears. It appears to have been magnified so that only a part of the image appears. Can anyone enlighten me as to what is happening? And how to fix it??

How do I Export Raw images from Iphoto to Adobe Photo Elements 4

I recently purchased Photo elements 4 because I could import images from Iphoto in Raw format and work with them. Everything I have read and the instructional video sent to me by Adobe make it look and sound very easy but so far I have had no success.
I have been able to open Bridge and view photos from Iphoto so it seems to me that everything that I have in Iphoto is automatically transfered to Elements 4. However I can not find my Raw images. What am I doing wrong or failing to do and is there some logical sequence that I have to follow to import Raw images.
I am using a Nikon D200 and just to be safe I have been shooting so the images are saved both in JPEG and RAW.
Thanks for any help you can provide

dakota8,
iPhoto and Adobe Bridge are incompatible, so you need to decide which one you want to use (for which photos). iPhoto is a database, with many flexible features for organizing your library and finding your photos. Bridge is a file browser with some organizing capabilities. You absolutely should not use Bridge or any other application (Finder included) to browse the files inside your iPhoto Library folder, as it will damage the iPhoto database. To verify, click on iPhoto's Help and read the section "About using the iPhoto Library."
If you want to keep your RAW files in iPhoto, then you'll need to open them from iPhoto. As Dave E said, this can be done by setting the iPhoto pref to export RAW files. You also need to set PE 4 as the external editor in iPhoto's preferences. With this setup, you can select photos using iPhoto, open the RAW files into PE 4, then edit. Now comes the wrinkle in the workflow. Normally, you would do a Save to cause your edited file to be saved back into the iPhoto library. This Save, not Save As, requires that the filename and extension stay the same. Works great with jpeg files. However, once you edit the RAW, the extension (and file format) must change. Save will not work, because any save at this point is treated like a Save As. So you have to Save As to a folder OUTside of your iPhoto Library, and then import it in as a new file. There will be no link between the edited version and its unedited RAW file. You could organize inside iPhoto to display the edited file beside its original RAW, or keep separate rolls for the originals and edits.
With that in mind, you might not want to save the RAW files in iPhoto at all. You could create your own filing system for them, which you would browse using Bridge. Upload using Image Capture to save your files to a folder of your choice. Once you edit the RAW files and save as another format, you could them import into iPhoto for cataloging or further editing. You'll just have to find the system that works best for you.
BTW, don't save your edited RAW files as Adobe RAW. I tried and discovered that iPhoto refuses to import them at all.
I have been able to open Bridge and view photos from Iphoto so it seems to me that everything that I have in Iphoto is automatically transfered to Elements 4.
There's no transferring involved at all. Bridge is rooting directly inside the iPhoto Library folder. Did I mention that it's best to avoid this?
However I can not find my Raw images.
When you import a file it is saved into the Originals folder. Your RAW files are there, along with any video clips you may have imported.
iPhoto automatically creates a jpeg version of your RAW files and stores it in the Modified folder. It has to do this in order to display the picture on your screen. With video clips, a jpeg of the first frame is created for display purposes.
I am using a Nikon D200 and just to be safe I have been shooting so the images are saved both in JPEG and RAW.
If you import both versions into iPhoto, then you have
Originals - RAW
Modified - jpeg
Originals - jpeg
(Modified - jpeg - if you edit the jpeg version or if they are auto-rotated to portrait orientation)
I don't shoot in RAW, so I can't really comment about which workflow would be the most efficient. I just played with it long enough to realize that there is no easy way to do it.
Regards.

If I barrow an image from iPhoto, that is drag it to another file or the desktop it seems to half disappear. It still shows until I try to enlarge it then I get a triangle exclamation mark in the enlarged field, once I return to Photos or an Album it is

If I barrow an image from iPhoto, that is drag it to another file or the desktop it seems to half disappear. It still shows until I try to enlarge it then I get a triangle exclamation mark in the enlarged field, once I return to Photos or an Album it is there. However it can no longer be dragged into another file. How can I recover these images? Is there a better way to duplicate a image to locate in outside of iPhoto?
I never had this problem in previous versions of iPhoto.

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the link to the original file.
What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

How can I access images from IPhoto on my Mac to Photoshop CS6

How can I access images from IPhoto library on my Mac to Photoshop CS6? I enable jpg with format "Photoshop" and this is what comes up - "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file"

Photoshop is not a format. It's an application.
What you are looking at are not true JPEGs, just iPhoto's "tease" representations of the hidden images it swallowed, as explained above.

I made a reverse radial gradient to look like "sunlight" and I would like to move it to the top of my image to appear like the light is coming from above, but it won't allow me to move the radial gradient anywhere. I have CS6. Help please :)

Assuming you did this with a Fill Layer, double-click the thumbnail in the Layers panel to bring up the Gradient Fill dialog, see to it that the [ ] Align with layer checkbox is set, and (while the Gradient Fill dialog is still up) try dragging the gradient to where you want it on the main display. Then [ OK ] out of the Gradient Fill dialog.

Cannot select images from iPhoto

I made a desktop AIR application that allows users to upload images to our server. Everything works except for Mac people trying to select images from iPhoto.
This is how I have the file selection setup:
private var fileRefList:FileReferenceList;
private var imageFileTypes:FileFilter = new FileFilter("Images (*.jpg, *.jpeg)", "*.jpg; *.jpeg");
private var allImageTypes:Array = new Array(imageFileTypes);
You can see the problem in the screenshot is that the select button won't enable, even though images are selected. Any ideas?

This is an example of the problem. It actually works the first time you select iphoto images, but if you try it again the select button (in the file browser window) is disabled.

When exporting images from iPhoto library to Aperture 3 library the highlights go red and the shadow area goes blue. This happen to all images in the Aperture 3 library, why?

For some reason all the images in Aperture 3 library have had their highlights go red and the shadow area goes blue. I can correct them one at a time with contrast control. This just happen on its on after I uploaded MOuntain Lion. Now when I go to transfer images from iPhoto this happens. The images are all right in iPhoto but this is not the case with Apeerture. I have 15,000 images in Aperture 3 and I can't afford the time to correct them one at a time. What is it that I did to cause this problem?

You have "Highlight Hot and Cold Areas" turned on.
Toggle this on/off from the View menu.
Thresholds are set at "Aperture➞Preferences➞Advanced". (I have mine set to 100% ~ it's not clear what the scale is.)

How can I import images from iphoto with the albums and folders?

How can I import images from iphoto without losing the albums and folders I already created?

In Organizer, you can choose File>get Photos and Videos>From iPhoto.
Importing from iPhoto'09: If in iPhoto, you organize your media using photo references, that is, the media actually does not reside inside iPhoto library package, and are referenced through original locations, Organizer does not create new copies of those media and just refer to the original location. but if your iPhoto media reside inside iPhoto library, Organizer creates a copy all media in your pictures folder, also imports albums and tags and other metadata.
Importing from iPhoto'011: In this case, Organizer always creates a copy of your photos in your pictures folder which resides inside iPohto package. It does not import the albums and other metadata like star rating, caption etc.
Hope this information helps!
