IPhoto 11  slideshow mode decreases the image sharpness and quality

The images that weight over 5 MB and are fine and sharp become somewhat blured when displayed in the iPhoto '11 slideshow mode. The loss of image sharpness is just too big. The pictures look like they were made with a 100$ camera or even worse. I know the images are fine and big enough. I used picasa slideshow mode just to check. I saw a much better image quality and no noticable lose of sharpness.
Anyone has an idea why the iPhoto 11 slideshow mode looses so much image sharpness?

We all like iPhoto and its ease of use, good looks and fancy features.
However Aplle must concentrate on the core .... sufficient quality of the displayed images. The colors, sharpness, tones - the essence of photography
I understand that iPhoto is not the Aperture. But if the Slide Show mode virtually washes the sharpness away from the pictures than something is not right! Picture that is not sharp is worth the trash
If picasa slide show can do it I am sure iPhoto slide show can do it even better! We are waiting for the upgrade

  • In Lightroom 3 I am in Library mode in the Grid View and need to rearrange images, but it is not allowing me to move them.

    In Lightroom 3 I am in Library mode in the Grid View and need to rearrange images, but it is not allowing me to move them.

    I don't do a lot of dragging to custom arrange my images. But the custom order is right at the bottom of the list of sort orders on my computer.
    Added later: But don't worry about the custom order. It doesn't make any difference on my system. Are you sure you are dragging the image itself, and not the border around the image?

  • How to decrease the OLAP/DB and Frontend time of query

    Hi,
    While  I am excuiting the query, it takes time to dispaly the query output. Reason behind is it have the high OLAP/DB and Front end time.
    Can anyone help me how to decrease the OLAP/DB and Front end time.
    Regards,

    Probably Existing Aggregates are not useful .. you can edit them based on below factors
    You can also check ST03N - > BI Workload - > select Weekly/Monthly - >Choose All data tab - >dbl click on Infocube - > choose query - > check the DB time % > 30% and Aggregation ratio is > 10 % then create aggregates.
    Now goto RSRT choose query - > Execute debug mode - > check 'Display Aggr found' and choose 'Display Stats' -> now you can check records selected Vs records transferred in % .. it should be > 10 % .. That means the query is fetching records from Aggrs which will also improve query performance!
    Also check RSRT - Execute in Debug and choose display aggregates found.. If it found aggregates then the query is using/fetching data from aggr's

  • I created a book on iPhoto. I click on the buy button, and I get a connecting message with a blue striped rectangle. I am connected to the internet and I have made books before without any problems. I have tried for the past two weeks at various times.

    I created a book on iPhoto. I click on the buy button, and I get a  message that says Connecting with a moving blue striped rectangle. I am connected to the internet and I have made books before without any problems. I have tried for the past two weeks at various times and I get this same message each time. Any ideas about what is going on? 

    First confirm that you can create a PDF file of your book as described in this Apple document: iPhoto '11: Preview a book, card, or calendar before you order or print it. Post back with the results.

  • How do I find the image name and media_link for an ubuntu image in the Gallery?

    I am trying to create VM using Python API.

    Thanks in advance...

    hi sir,
    Did you try to use "List OS Image"? we can get the property form the results:
    result = sms.list_os_images()
    for image in result:
    print('Name: ' + image.name)
    print('Label: ' + image.label)
    print('OS: ' + image.os)
    print('Category: ' + image.category)
    print('Description: ' + image.description)
    print('Location: ' + image.location)
    print('Affinity group: ' + image.affinity_group)
    print('Media link: ' + image.media_link)
    print('')
    Please try it. Any questions or it doesn't work, please let me know.
    Regards,
    Will

  • When I use a tool on an enlarged image the image freezes and I can't get it to move unless I change tools. I tried resetting tools and uninstalling and reloading CC. What should I do?

    When I use a tool on an enlarged image the image freezes and I can't get it to move unless I change tools. I tried resetting tools and uninstalling and reloading CC. What should I do?  Once any tool is used I can't change its size or move the image.

    Howdy,
    Sorry for the lack of info. It is Adobe Photoshop CC, I have been using
    CS5 and am trying the trial version of CC to see if it worth changing
    to. Any tool works once but freezes the tool sizing and image movement.
    I am also using the Beta version of Mac Yosemite. But the CS5 version is
    working fine.

  • I made an iPhoto book but now all the images are gone?

    I recently made a book in iPhoto and never finished it.  When I re-open the book in iPhoto, the formatting and all the text exists but the images are all gone.  Is there a way to try and rebuild it?  Thanks-M

    Do the following: make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and  apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Start a slideshow that picks the image in the catalog randomly?

  • Imported RAW images badly corrupted, looks like red paint splashed all over the sky.  Photoshop and Iphoto have no problem with the images from my D800E.  Aperture worked fine for me in June with the same camera.  The Nikon software shows no problem.

    I am having a problem importing my images into Aperture 3 from my Nikon D800E.  The images appear as if red paint was splashed across the sky.  The Nikon software used to transfer from the camera does not show this problem and Photoshop 6 is fine with the images exported as jpg from the Nikon software.  Aperature does not even like the jpg images usable by Photoshop.  I am suspecting that Aperture is not correctly using the camera raw file.  Also, the histograms are radically different between the corrupted images and the Photoshop (good) versions.  Aperture worked just fine for me in June with the same camera.  All drivers and software are current as of this posting.  Anyone else out there seen this before??

    Are you sure you do not have Highlight Hot & Cold Areas turned on? (View->Highlight Hot & Cold Areas)?
    The bug in Digital Camera raw only affected Raw images. In your first post you wrote:
    Aperature does not even like the jpg images usable by Photoshop
    If the JPG's have the same problem then it isn't this bug.

  • How do you change the image size and resolution in photoshop everytime I change the width the height changes my measurements will not stay

    Can someone assist me with changing image size and resolution.  each time I change the width the height changes and vice/versa?

    There's a chain link between width and height. The point is to keep the aspect ratio the same, otherwise your picture would get stretched.
    You click on the chain-link to shut that off and you can adjust width and height separately.
    Also could you give us your version of Photoshop, what OS you are running it on (Windows 7 for example) and what exactly you want to do with your document?
    Resolution is the print term for how many pixels will be printed on an inch of paper. It doesn't apply if your image is intended for screen viewing.

  • Get an error for changing the windows authentication mode to the both SQL and windows authentication mode

    I installed the SQL server Express 2008 R2 and then SQL Server Management Studio 2008 R2 . But during the installation, I could not choose the both SQL and windows authentication mode and an error accrued so I did that just with windows authentication mode. 
    Now, I want to change the windows authentication mode account to the SQL authentication mode but it shows me an error which is you do not have permission (Although I am the administrator in windows), what can I do?
    Following steps are the steps that I went but I got an error:
    Server properties >> security >> choose the option of SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode 
    and the error that I got is attached(access is denied)  
    Can you please help me?

    You can change the setting after you gain admin rights to your SQL Server. You don't admin rights automatically, you have to explicitly add yourself during the install
    Here's a guide on how to (re)gain those rights:
