IPhoto '08 resizing images (but not all)

I have recently run into a problem which I assume is iphoto related. I never use iphoto because quite frankly I don't like it and I never have, which is why I stuck with '08 and didn't bother upgrading and this issue hasn't helped any.
I decided to do a photo book for my girlfriend for Xmas, however with some pictures from my iphone 4s I was getting the low res error message. These were all photos taken in June and they all appear to be 360 x 270. Eveything before that is the same. However anything taken from September onwards is fine and is at full 8mp resolution. Nothing I've searched for suggests there's an issue with the phone so I'm assuming something happened when importing to iphoto and no message regarding resizing showed up at the time.
I only really use iphoto to get the pictures off my phone. I use a card reader for my digital camera. Once the photos are off the phone I copy them to a folder I make in the pictures folder in Finder then I go into the iphoto library and delete the several copies of the pictures it, for some reason, deems necessary to make. I use it for nothing else, except the occasional slide show and photo book. I don't suppose there's any way to get them back now but has anybody had this problem before? I'd really like to know how this happened. It's really screwed me up because I took some great pictures and now I can't use any of them. Also, is there an alternative to iphoto to get pictures off my phone because the less I need to use iphoto the better.
Thanks

Wrong, wrong.
You never access the photos via the File Structure, there is no need to  - oh, and by the way, there are no duplicates.
With iPhoto you work only in the iPhoto Window. In the Library (Events or Photos view) select an image and drag it to the iPhoto Trash. Empty it. Empty the System trash. Image gone.
To get a image out of iPhoto: File -> Export...

  • Iphoto imported some photos but not all

    I was able to import 45 of the 229 (approx.) photos off my SD card yesterday.  I took the photos all on the same day (battery was getting low but managed to fill the card).  When I looked on my camera (Canon) I saw that it showed no photos on the camera and I had not deleted them off the camera's SD card.  at the same time missing photos were in iphoto ("loading, please wait" was the message).  I waited overnight. Still nothing. They are visibly present in my iphoto application but not finishing the load process. I have been receiving (and not paying enough attention to, shame on me, error messages coming up in iphoto saying iphoto needed repairing.  I repaired or followed instructions each time but did not explore further.  Don't know if 2 events are related or not.
    What to do?  I have imported over 100k photos and never had a problem at all.  Don't know if it's a bad card, probelm with iphoto or what.  Also imported Java and Adobe reader (updated to use an application I had been running called Snagit).
    Think I just got ripped off with freshcrop (MediaRECOVER Mac), apparently a non-reocognized media recovery app (didn't open it, just paid $60).  I've done so many things as of late to my imac (7) running latest OSX version that I'm wondering if it will be difficult to pinpoint what happened.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Yes, my photos are all in iPhoto.  I mentioned other things that I've updated on my computer in case those updates and purchases of new software in any way affected my iphoto.  So in the end the card updated all the photos - in 3 stages total over a period of days and during that time it would not allow me to log out of iphoto so had to do a manual reboot of my system.  The problem was solved but I still don't know the reason for its occurrence or why it corrected itself. The last thing I'll share was that I saw a twirling blue ball (not the usual multi-colored ball that sometimes twirls on the screen when you are waiting for something to go to the next stage.  Sorry for the confusion and thank you for your time.  I hope I never see this again.

    LR 5.6 on Mac desktop all of a sudden will not read any card from any reader but will work on my laptop. I can work on previous images but not import new ones. Even if I create a catalog on laptop and import to my desktop on a thumb drive, the images are only accessible as long as the thumb drive is inserted.

    Sounds like you may need to repair the Disk Permissions on your drive where your images are stored.

  • Some, but not all, albums not displayed after Yosemite/iPhoto 9.6 upgrade

    After upgrading to Yosemite and iPhoto 9.6, photos from  some, but not all, albums are missing. All albums from the previous version are listed in the Library, but 12 of 15 are showing "(0)" with no contents.
    Is recovery possible?
    iMac 21.5in (late 2009), OS X 10.10.2
    3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB Ram
    OS X 10.10.2
    iPhoto 9.6 (910.29)

    Your best solution is to restore a backup copy of the library made just prior to the Yosemite and iPhoto upgrades.
    Otherwise try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • Firefox is failing to display many (but not all) images on websites that I visit, some images are shown and some are not even if they are in the same format.

    I recently changed my ISP because I was having connectivity issues. In particular my router would shut down sporadically. As part of my attempt to clear issues I ran some spyware software which I've been told I could trust. Since then I have a problem viewing many websites as many (but not all) of the images are missing, even on websites that I know very well, including my own. What is very strange is that on one site every page has a jpg image under the navigation bar and all of these jpg's appear except one which doesn't appear even when I reload images. This problem also makes security sensitive sites like my bank site look very amateur which frightens me. The problem does not occur on other web browsers.

    Which ''spyware software'' software did you run?
    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Windows Accessibility settings.

    trying to add album from iphoto into idvd slideshow.  Not all photos are loading.  Message "creating thumbnail images...(31 remaining).  Been there a long time.  What is wrong?

    Open your iPhoto Library, go to that particular album and verify that you can view the full sized version of each image by double clicking on them.  Report back with the results.

    I am batch processing in PS 2014 (watermark and saving as jpeg from ps file). I get the message for some but not all 'this file needs to be saved as a copy with this option'. And then I have to save it manually. Does anyone know why this happens? (It is just a plain photoshop file, a watermark is added, then save as jpeg - the jpeg is saved to a different folder than the original photoshop file.)  It happens for about 10 of 30/40  files approximately . Thank you, Kathryn

    I believe I have figured it out - I need to flatten the image, even though there are no layers except for layer 0, first.

  • Album Art works for most, but not all

    I was reading previous forums on the subject, but no clear answer was given..
    The album art shows up fine in itunes and my library and works for most of my music on my ipod, but how come some album's art does appear? I have it set manually and select 'Get Info' then 'Artwork' and add it from there, then drag in the finished product to my ipod. I've been doing that and it works fine for most of the albums, but every so often, the album art will not appear on my ipod. Am I doing something wrong? I take them all from the same source (amazon.com) but it makes no sense to me how some randomly don't appear.
    I tried deleting the artwork and re-adding it, but nothing happened again. If you could answer why it works for most but not all or how I can get the album art to appear for the ones it will not by re-doing something, it would be appreciated. thanks.

    I encountered the same problem in the beginning. When I compared the size of the original images, the working ones seemed to be smaller in general, so I reduced the size of all covers I intended to upload on the pod to 300x300 pixels.
    This seemed to work - for 2 days. I bought the pod on friday, had pictures on sunday, but on Monday (after the first time the pod was fully discharged) none were left left.
    So I ended searching this forum for related problems...
    And decided to join my problem to this entry.

  • Resizing Image and Not Keep Aspect Ratio

    Is there a free program to resize images and not keep the original aspect ratio?
    I need to resize loads of images to 100x100 pixels and have tried Image well and IResize yet they do not seem to have an option to not keep the original aspect ratio.
    Thank you

    Hi, Downsize does not seem all that great according to reviews. Why not see if you can buy PS E' 3 mac -- maybe ebay/amazon (if I remember I only paid about $70 for PS E3) As PS E4 just came out I'm sure someone has PS E3 for sale. You will then have no problems completing your image resizing.
    2 other questions for you..are you using the Mac side of your intel or Windows?
    if your using the Windows side I can let you have PS 6 (PC) ..freegratus.

  • IPhoto to Aperture 3 import - not all photos get imported...

    Hello - My library is not huge, only about 8000 photos. Just bought Aperture 3 and imported my iPhoto library into A3. Seemed to go without issues. Today, as I re-organize a few folders, projects, etc., I realize that not all the photos were imported. About 700, to be exact. Every named Event in iPhoto imported over into A3, but not all photos within each Event (now Project). Any thoughts on what could have happened and how this could be avoided?
    I could import each Event individually, but then I would loose all my keywords. Any work around you can think of? Thanks!

    Try rebuild your iPhoto Library:
    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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    I would import each event individually, but I would like my keywords preserved
    Using the iPhoto Media Browser (File -> Import -> Show iPhoto Browser) will get your keywords too.
    Regards
    TD
    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.

  • My ios update did not load to my iPhone completely. I have some of the new features but not all of them.

    I have some of the features but not all of them. It seems that the download did not complete.

    Where are you looking for Siri voice selection? It should be in Settings/General/Siri. You must also choose a language that has a choice of voices. US English and Canadian English do, UK and Australian do not.
    What do you see in Settings/Wallpapers & Brightness? You need to tap one of the 2 images to see the selections available.
    As I said, it is impossible that the installation is incomplete; you just aren't finding the new features. If you want to reinstall anyway, upgrade iTunes on your computer to 11.1, then connect the phone using a USB cable directly to the computer (not a hub), click on the iPhone's name in iTunes, then click the Restore iPhone button.

  • Client getting an IP lease on the 64-bit LiteTouch boot image, but not the 32-bit version.

    MDT 2012 U1.  No problem with PXE booting so WDS is not the issue.
    The NIC in question is the Intel I217-LM, which resides on both the new Dell Optiplex 9020 and the Latitude E7440.  I downloaded the Dell drivers and then the Intel drivers and imported them into the WindowsPE drivers folder in the workbench.  Updated
    the boot images to make sure the new drivers were injected.  Both yielded the same result.  I can do everything I need to do when booting to the 64-bit LiteTouchPE_x64.wim boot image,  but not the 32-bit version.  When booting to the 32-bit
    version, I get no IP configuration info at all.  
    When looking at the drivers in MDT, I see only one difference:  the supported OS versions.  The 64-bit driver supports 6.1, 6.1.1, and 6.2.  The 32-bit driver supports only 6.1.1 and 6.2.  Not sure if that's the issue.
    Tried using drvload within 32-bit WinPE to manually inject the NIC driver.  Still no luck.  Ipconfig yields no configuration at all.
    If I can't get these machines to boot to the 32-bit boot images, I can't deploy 32-bit images, unless there's a way of which I'm unaware.
    EDIT:  A little extra background.  My WindowsPE folder has two subfolders called x86 and x64.  Obviously, 32-bit drivers go into the x86 folder and 64-bit drivers go into the x64 folder.  Then in the properties of the deployment share a
    selection profile is selected which points to the architecture-specific folders.

    Specifically what do you see when you are in WinPE, press the F8 button, and run ipconfig.
    1. ipconfig shows no network adapters (see:
    http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/rpedersen/clip_image002_53DA17D4.jpg ). This means you still have not loaded the correct device drivers, check the c:\windows\system32\wpeinit.log file.
    2. ipconfig shows an "autoconfiguration IPv4 Address" with a netmastk of 255.255.0.0. This means that the client did not get an IP address from the DHCP server. Double check the connection between the client and the DHCP server.
    3. ipconfig shows a correct address. There is no problem. :^)

    I get the first result.  Absolutely no network adapters, which I assumed indicated no appropriate device driver.

    At first I thought the first bolded section might be relevant, but when I booted to the x64 boot image, which works fine, I get the same message in its wpeinit.log file.  The only difference between the two log files is that the x64 boot image actually
    shows successful installation of a driver where the second bolded section is.
