Incorrect size & quantity of photos and available capacity

Hi,
Recently, I imported and subsequently deleted many photos on my iPad. There're only 17 photos left (and as indicated in "General" under Settings). However, under iTunes Summary, it shows a total of 678 photos on my iPad. More strangely,
- iPad: the 17 photos add up to 4.68MB in size, with 8.7GB available in capacity;
- iTunes: the 678 photos add up to 3.6GB, with 12.3GB free space.
How do I locate the rest of the 661 (678-17) photos that iTunes detected? I want to get rid of these "hidden" files as they're eating up my free space. I did a restoration to my iPad but the size of the photos and available capacity are still not showing right.
Please help~~ I would greatly appreciate any advice given. Thanks!!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. It appears to be a bug. Be sure to report it to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html. I get varied results when selecting multiple events or photos, deselecting and then adding them back. iPhoto then tells me the disk is full even though I've not selected enough to fill it.
But we have to remember that there's a lot of overhead when burning via the Share->Burn option. In addition to the original files we also get the thumbnail, modified and many database files. That adds up fast. It's just not clear what's happening.
Even though you get those screwy numbers does the burned disk contain the correct number of photos?

    Yes, that's exactly what I'd suggest for the vast majority of users.

  • I have tried to use File - Export to reduce the size of my pics to send via email and all I get is a blank pic.  How do I reduce the size of the photo and still have the photo?

    I have tried to use File > Export to a folder on my Desk top to reduce the size of my photos and all I get is a blank, grey screen.  How do I reduce the size of my pics so I can email them?

    Where are you getting this screen?  In iPhoto after selecting the File ➙ Export menu option? If that's the case try this:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/() Library/Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences..
    You can resize photos outside of iPhoto with 3rd party applications like Resize!.
    Click to view full size
    With it you can change both the pixel size and file size of the photo to the size that suits your needs.  For other such apps go to MacUpDate.com and search for "image resize" to get a list of potential candidates.

  • How do I find out the file size of my photos, and change them to the size

    This will sound inane, but I cannot figure out where to find the file size of my photos in iPhoto. I need a jpeg of a certain file size and image size for my blog background, but can't figure out how to even start.

    If the limited quality options do not get you the file size you need export the full size image files to a folder on your Desktop and use Resize! to batch resize the image dimensions and file size (jpeg compression level) to what you need.
    Click to view full size
    With Resize! you can fine tune the pixel dimensions and file size.

  • Is there a script (or plugin) that will take a photo and break it up into parts?

    Is there a script or plug-in out there that will take a picture and break it up into various parts (squares for example.)  The idea would be that you could automate and rapidly create a photo collage of a single image.  (See examples of what I mean in attached pics.)
    Thanks!
    This image has been resized to fit in the page. Click to enlarge.
    You get the idea.

    OK, I'm going to edit this post now that I'm at a computer with an actual step by step.
    Create a new comp the size of you our final delivered project.
    Add a photo to the timeline
    Note the size of the photo and the scale to position the photo at it's final resting place
    Calculate twice the height and width of the photo and create a new solid that is this size
    Place the solid above the photo
    Create a mask in the solid at the exact center that is the size shape you want for your photo frame
    Either invert the mask or set the mask property to Subtract to reveal a small portion of the photo
    Set the solid as a alpha inverted track matte for the photo (you should now see only a portion of the photo
    Add a rectangular shape layer with only a stroke to act as the photo frame over the mask. You may have to use two shapes or create a mask on a shape if you want to simulate polaroids
    Make the shape layer the parent of the solid you are using as a track matte so the matte will stay lined up with the frame
    Here comes the fun, select all layers and duplicate them using Ctrl/Cmnd + D
    Immediately hold down Shift + Ctrl/Cmnd + } to move all duplicates to the top
    Select the top shape layer and move the shape layer frame into a new position
    Pre-compose the top 3 layers
    Press the y key to select the Pan Benind or Anchor Point tool and move the pre-comp's anchor point to the center of the top frame
    Repeat step 11 through 15 until you have arranged your montage (it might be a good idea to have a template set up as a guide layer so you know where to put the frames
    Select all pre-comps and press Alt/Option + P to set a position keyframe for each pre-comp
    With all of the keyframe selected move them down the timeline about 3 seconds
    Now, with the CTI at the first frame drag each pre-comp into a starting position for that frame
    Preview and adjust the timing, then turn on motion blur
    Your images will now assemble themselves into the final montage.
    There is no script that I know of that will do all of this automatically, but it would not be too hard to write a script that would do the pre-composing if you have a ton of these to do. I'm guessing that with a little practice you could have a new picture frame created and moved into position in less than a minute. It takes me about 30 seconds. That means a 20 frame sequence should take you about a half hour. It might not be worth writing a script unless you have a ton of these to do. Select the bottom three layers and duplicate (Ctrl/Cmnt + D), group them at the top (Shift + Ctrl/Cmnd + } ), move the top frame layer into position, then Shift + Ctrl/Cmnd + C to pre-compose, then move the anchor point of the pre-comp, then do it again.... When you're done set a few keyframes.
    As I said, you could write a script, but you'd need a different script to move each frame into position and the script would only work for one layout. If you made a template to put on the bottom so you knew where do place the frames and which order you wanted them you could do this by hand very quickly. The sample project that I'm including which was just quickly thrown together took me less than 10 minutes. Replace my photo with one of yours and you'll get the idea.

  • Spry Slide Show-how to use one size photo for large photo and thumbnail?

    Hi all,
    I'm am using Adobe's Spry Slide Show. I can only use one size photo 640x480px for both the large photo and the thumbnail.
    I changed the size of the small thumnail on the html:
                     <li><a href="Photos/TestPhoto640x480.jpg" width="490" height="367"><img src="Photos/TestPhoto640x480.jpg" width="63" height="47" alt="photos-1.jpg" /></a></li>
    The thumbnail looks fine until you hit Live View or Preview in Browser then photo comes in full size and you can only see the upper left hand corner.
    I assume that the java is doing this. But I have no training in Java.
    How can I change the Java Code so the thumbnail comes in at 63x47px?
    Many thanks.

    Wish I could use scaled down versions of the thumbnails-but I can't.
    Why not?
        img.src = info.src;
        img.style.width =  "490px";<!--Large Photo size on internet-changed from info.width + "px"; to "490px";  *********-->
        img.style.height =  "368px";<!--Large Photo size on internet-changed from info.height + "px"; to "368px";  *******-->
    You're shooting yourself in the foot with this.  It's overriding your HTML and CSS  values.
    As an FYI, Adobe Abandoned the Spry framework late last year.

    I have a iPhone 5.  In usage, it says i have 2.1 gigs used because of photos and camera.  I have deleted all my photos via iPhoto and now reset the phone back to factory settings in order to try to solve this problem, to no avail.   Both iTunes  and the phone say that 2.1 gigs are being used, even though the phone now has nothing on it.  What is going on?

    Yeah it works fine over wifi the problem is when I try to use it over my 3G. It's really stressing me out now.

  • Firefox is scaling down the photo sizes, along with chrome and internet explorer but Firefox's photos are usually smaller

    I sell products on a site, along with other sellers, that is owned by someone else.
    We have many sellers there. Some of us are having problems with how we are able to view the size of our photos taken of our products that are up for sale.
    From seller to seller, we have different versions of Firefox that we are using. I have the newest Firefox, which I believe is 4.
    I was having, like others who use 4, the same problem seeing smaller photos before I did the upgrade as well.
    It seems to be the case for most of us who are having the problem, that Firefox photos scale down smaller than Internet Explorer and Chrome.
    We have been told that this may be a browser issue as the site owners say they have not made any changes. At this point we are unsure since there are so many variations from seller to seller (keep in mind that some sellers are not seeing the photos scale down through their computer).
    We have asked the site owners to look into this problem further. I also wanted to see what the Firefox community had to say. Do you think it may be a browser issue? We would greatly appreciate your input.
    Below are some examples of photos that have been scaled down for the sellers who are seeing a problem with smaller photos while both in Firefox; all using different versions of Firefox:
    One photo that was originally the size of 419px by 1, 007px is being seen by one seller to a scaled down size of 81px by 64px.
    Another seller is viewing this same photo scaled down to 163px by 329px.
    Another seller is able to view this photo as the original size it was intended to be, which is 419px by 1, 007px.
    The above scenario has been the worst scaled down size we have heard of so far.
    Typically a photo that is the size of 1, 000px by 930px has been scaled down to 420px by 391px.
    There are other examples as to size, but you can see that the photos have been scaled down quite a bit.
    You can see that it has been scaled down to less than half of the original size. This can pose a real problem for us depending on the type of product that is being photographed.
    Thank you!!

    Thank you!!

  • TS3195 I can upload photos and smaller size videos but when a video is 24 minutes long for instance, it doesn't upload at all from my iPhone to the PC. How do I upload these videos that are longer in length?

    I can upload photos and smaller size videos but when a video is 24 minutes long for instance, it doesn't upload at all from my iPhone to the PC. How do I upload these videos that are longer in length?

    Are you using any software to import videos? Did you tried Picasa or you just open your iPhone from My Computer?

  • How do you change the font size under the event and iphoto view photos?

    I would like to change the font size in iPhoto under the photos that appear in the Events view and in the Photos view. I was told by a tech at Apple that it cannot be done because it is built into the software. What you see is what you get. That seems unusual because the font size in the Photo view is smaller than that in the Events view. The Font control that exists in File/Edit are for fonts used when you open a photo and add your own captionI and have nothing to do with the various views. Does anyone know a way to do this?   Thanks

    I'm afraid it really is WYSIWYG. It can't be changed.  You can send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • IPhone 5s photo and video file size

    Does anybody know what the filesize of photos and videos on the iPhone 5s will be?

    So that's it then. I ran out to an AT&T store, dropped $550 to do an early upgrade to the 3Gs and re-up my contract for another two years just so I could get the option to send photos via text message/mms and I can't do it because AT&T has a size restriction of 300kb? I spent two days trying to figure out why my text messages wouldn't complete sending. Hardly any of the photos in my photo album are that small. What a total frigging waste of my time and money, yet again.
    This whole MMS "improvement" was not thought through thoroughly by Apple and AT&T at all.

  • Export photo but size is too big and magnified for uploading to web

    Hi
    I have tried to export a photo from IPhoto using Export function, selecting small then exporting to Desktop.  When I tried to upload to the web, the picture is very large and takes up the whole screen.  Even if i demagnify the picture before saving it, it is still very big.  I have tried to crop but this does not help.
    Please can you advise a quick and simple way to make pictures smaller visually.  (When I used Window, I used Paint which did the job).
    Thank you

    Thanks for the link.
    I'm not clear as far as size of file goes, and also to preview how it looks before exporting it.  I went to the File Export tab and should I wish to select "Size" then "Small", what size will that be on the screen? Or should I goto "Web Page", then if I goto "Image", I am sure what to reduce the 640 down to, but say if I half it, would that be a reasonable size on the screen/web page?
    I'm just trying to find a quick way to resize pictures for uploading to the web... but it's still a big vague to me.
