IPhoto '11:  Vertical (portrait) pictures are cropped in a slideshow.

All portrait and landscape pictures in my library and albums are not cropped, yet when I play a slideshow, the portrait pictures are cropped. The landscape ones are not. Some of my subjects heads are partially cut off! Does anyone know how to fix this?

What is the theme you are using? Some themes, like reflections, will crop the slides that do not fit into the templates.
Try, if using a different theme will help.

    How did you rebuild?
    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> 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 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.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

    1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.

    2)
    Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Then on the iPod go to
    - Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
    - Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
    - Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers

  • HT201317 Photos (portrait orientation) are cropped and white sides are added. Why?

    I have set up iCloud to sync the photos that I make with my iPhone (4S) to my iPad (3). To view my Photo Stream from my PC (Win7 prof SP1), I installed iCloud Control Panel for Windows (v1.1). This also enables me to add older photos to the Stream.
    Landscape -orientation pictures are added without problem, but portrait orientation pictures are both cropped and have white sides added. This looks bad on my iPad. Is there some setting I could change to make the upload leave the format of the pictures alone?
    I think I have seen this issue addressed before, but there was no solution with it. Any help appreciated, Regards, Dirk.

    I have had the same problem as this.
    I recently went to Paris for a short break but was without wifi for the whole time.  I took about 300 photos on my iPhone 4. When I returned to the UK (and wifi!) the photos did not sync with my iPad via photo stream. I made sure I had 100% battery, was plugged into the mains, was connected to wifi etc.. I posted on here and was told that they should have synced automatically.  However, I had by then disabled and re-enabled photo stream on my iPhone (according to instructions I found elsewhere) and it seems that photo stream only syncs photos taken since it is enabled.
    ... So in a further attempt to get my photos from Paris onto my iPad I transferred them onto my windows laptop via cable, and put them into my "uploads" folder in my photo stream folder.  This didn't work either until I uninstalled iCloud on my pc and reset photo stream on iCloud.com. The photos eventually began syncing and appearing on my iPad. The problems now are as follow:
    1) The photos are not in the right order, and there is no way on iPad to sort them.  Why in earth has this happened? Is there a way to sort them correctly? It's obviously frustrating to look through the photos in the wrong order, and even worse when trying to show them to friends and family! I can't work out which order they are now arranged in - its not in "file name" order or "date taken" order. Nonsensical!!
    2) The portrait photos, as the original poster describes above, have all been cropped at the top and bottom and have horrible white borders at the sides where other photos taken on iPad/iPhone would have clean black spaces.
    I've been back in the uk for 4 days now and been trying to sort this out on and off since then.  It really is a pain.  Does anyone know if there are ways to transfer the photos more easily and reliably between devices when photos stream fails, and if there are ways to rectify the 2 above issues?

  • Images with "Portrait" orientation are stretched out

    I've taken photos with "portrait" (vs landscape) orientation with my camera then imported them in iPhoto. Then, I've rotated them in iPhoto so that they display with the correct orientation (i.e vertically), and everything so far looks OK.
    However, when I try to build up a slideshow with iDVD, those portrait oriented photos are stretched out sideways in order to fill out the displaying frame (I would have expected them to show as in iPhoto with a black band on each side) .
    I've read in the iDVD Help that this may happen whenever landscape AND portrait pictures are mixed together in the same slideshow. So, I carefully isolated each set of photos but with no success.
    From what I've read in the iDVD forum, it seems that this is a recurrent problem no matter which iDVD or iPhoto version is used (I use iDVD 3 and iPhoto 2).
    Thank for any help.
    1.8 Ghz PowerPC G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Well, I tried to use iDVD without reading the tutorial and I confused the drop zone and the slideshow.
    Actually, when you drop more than one photo into the drop zone, the width over the height ratio is determined by the first picture. Whenever the first photo is landscape oriented, any subsequent portrait photo appears stretched out. Conversely, if the first photo is portrait oriented, then the following landscape photos will be squeezed.
    In any case, the slideshow itself is always displayed correctly.

  • Reformated system, can't get iphoto to take my pictures back

    I had to reformate my harddisk. I put back on original systems disk with updates and just got done putting on Tiger again. I updated software but everytime I try to put pictures back in iphoto it says the pictures are a newer version and can't be imported into iphoto.
    Are there additional updates to iphoto that aren't released in the "update" on the computer?

    The latest version of iPhoto which can operation with OS X 10.4.11 is iPhoto 7 which is part of iLife 08.  You might be able to find a copy of iLIfe 08 on Amazon.com or Ebay.com.
    iLife 08's full system requirements are:
    Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 processor
    iMovie ’08 requires a Mac computer with an Intel processor, a Power Mac G5 (dual 2.0 GHz or faster), or an iMac G5 (1.9 GHz or faster)
    iDVD ’08 requires 733MHz or faster processor
    512 MB of RAM; 1 GB recommended; high-definition video requires at least 1 GB of RAM
    3 GB of available disk space
    DVD drive required for installation

    I have Iphoto '09, version 8.1.2 (424). I am having an identical problem.  All my pictures are imported into Iphoto when I downloaded them from my camera.  Until recently, I thought that the pictures were actually saved in the library.  Since I need to crop my pictures for the web, and Iphoto doesn't do that, I purchased Photoshop Elements to do that.  To my surprise, when I try to get a picture from Iphoto to Photoshop, it can't be done. That was when I realized, after wasting a lot of time, that the photos are not in the Iphoto library.
    I started naming the pictures on Iphoto so I had a recognizable file name to open on Photoshop. Couldn't find it.  I looked in the Backup folder and the Transfer software folder (I have a Nikon camera), and the names I entered in the Iphoto display, could not be found.
    When I am trying to upload a photo to the web, I get the Finder folder showing  with an active folder called "Photos" under "Media", which only displays Iphoto and PhotoBooth.  This is a folder name that I cannot find in my HD anywhere when I look for it.  If I edit a picture with Photoshop, I am not going to save it back to Iphoto (not sure whether it will work properly).  How do I get my folder of edited photos to show when I want to upload a picture to the web?
    Where (the name of the folder) do I find the pictures I see displayed on the Iphoto library, including any name changes, keywords added, and so on?

  • Vertical Photos are cropped

    I am trying to prepare my first digital presentation using Keynote and I have sized the photos to 1000 pixels on the long side. When reviewing my slides, the horizontal images look great, but the vertical are cropped at the top and bottom (almost a square) How do I fit the verticals into the presentation?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi J-Paul,
    click on the image and see if it is masked, even if you did not apply the mask yourself if it is a place holder it is a mask of sorts. When clicking on the image if the image is masked a little semi-transparent menu appears on or near the image that controls the size of the image you can also move the photo around in the mask.
    I hope that is it because there is no other vertical control as you describe in the other application.
    You may also try to add a slide with a vertical photo already planned in and move your picture there, arrange it the way you want and see if it works. A cut and past would quickly solve the problem.

  • Imports from iPhoto Are Cropped

    All of the pictures I am importing from iPhoto to iMovie end up being cropped so heads are being cut off when viewed on iMovie

    Duh..I found it under photo settings. It was set to enlarge all imported photos. Never mind.

  • After installing OS Yosemite I have been unable to update iPhoto, It's been 2 days.  All pictures are gone.  Need help.

    I installed OS Yosemite and I got the following message "The Photo Library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. I clicked Updgrade, but it  has been two days and it hasn't been able to upgrade my library and none of my picture are showing. Don't know what to do. Please help.

    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.

But there is one corrupt file which i also cannot open :(
    I need help :( thank you

    1. Reinstalling iPhoto has no effect on your photos. The iPhoto application is totally seperate from your iPhoto library
    2. Is you backed up correctly and restored correctly nothing would change
    3. Given your report it is clear that you dopi somethinfpg incorrectly. However since you do not tell how you backed up or how you restored it is impossible to guess what you did wrong or if itpt is possible to fix
    4. Exactly step by step howvdid you back up your iPhoto library and exactly how did you restore it?
    5. Do you have a TimeMachine backup or clone of your iPhoto library from before you did this?
    6. What version of iPhoto '11?  There are many different versions
