IPhoto Image Properties

Im totally confused about image properties and the effect on images when downloaded into iPhoto of different releases:
I have Canon digital camera. I always shoot at max image and file size...not Raw.
I had my MacBook on a vacation in Europe and pulled images into iPhoto (V6)every day to preserve in case of loss. I then made a daily CD for double keeping.
When I returned home I wanted the images on my iMac so I loaded into iPhoto (V5) from the backup CD made from the MacBook iPhoto (V6).
I noticed differences in image properties (file size and resolution) when opened in Photoshop so I did the following experiment:
I uploaded from the camera the last set of images directly into the iMac (iPhoto V5). I then compared image properties between the same image, from the CD via the MacBook and from the camera directly...and the iMac direct loaded images were larger, 3.2 MB v. 2.3 MB. I also checked the direct loaded images on the MacBook (iPhoto V6) and it is also 2.3 MB. I concluded the CD had nothing to do with the image quality/size.
It appears that iPhoto V6 for some reason loades the image as a smaller and thus lower quality image than the iPhoto V5 on the iMac.
Can anyone explain where the differences are coming from...???

Welcome to Apple Discussions,
What model of Kodak is it?
There is a discussion thread on this topic: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11942367&#11942367
Try using a media card reader (sometimes built into printers) to see if that allows the import. Others seem to report having luck by importing the movies off the card using a different computer, deleting them, and then importing the pictures.
Hope that helps.

  • Downsize iPhoto images & export them to a folder using Automator?

    Please bear with me. I wasn't sure where to post this since I can't find an Automator string in the Discussions window. This is what I'd like to do. I'm making web site using iWeb and I love it. However, when dragging and dropping images into iWeb from the iPhoto media browser, it imports the original iPhoto image into iWeb and not the edited one. This seems stupid to me but there it is. So as some have suggested I thought I'd grab and album and have all the photos in it downsized to 800x(constrained proportion). Can Automator do this? When i poke around in the iPhoto actions in Automator I don't see much. I've searched AutomatorWorld also and can't find anything there. Am I being dim about this?

    I can't help you with Automator, but there is an Automator forum under the Mac OS X 10.4 folder, where I'm sure they'll help.

  • IPhoto images missing in Edit window after importing iPhoto albums folder

    A friend of mine with new macbook tried to import her iPhoto images from an external hardrive. She move it to her user photo album and then i believe she tried to point to it after launching iphoto. She told me there were some options windows popping up and she does not remember what they said but the current result is that many of her photos do not appear when she clicks on the thumb nails to edit them: said there is a grey field with a questin mark.
    My thought was to somehow repoint to the file or dump the .plst file.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you,
    todd

    The question mark shows up when the link between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window loses the location of the file it points to.
    The most common cause of this is User activity in the iPhoto Library Folder. It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss.
    As your friend now sees.
    Unless your friend nows exactly what changes she has made, I'm afraid the best way to fix this is to start again, importing from your originals folder.
    There are comprehensive instructions for moving the iPhoto Library Folder in the Help, or if you need more you can most on here.

  • TS3195 My mac mini (Snow Leopard, v10.6.8) does not acknowledge my iphone 4, iphone 4s or ipad2 in iPhoto, Image Capture, iSync or Preview but it does in iTunes.  I am at a loss for importing photos, short of emailing them.  Glitch with OS X 10.6.8 ?

    My Mac Mini (v10.6.8) does not acknowledge my iphone as a device in iPhoto, Image Capture, iSync or Preview although, iTunes does.  I am at a loss for importing photos other than emailing them to myself. Same problem with my iphone 4, iphone 4s, ipad2 and New iPad. Is this a problem with OS X 10.6.8 as I read some posts claim? Please help.

    I was able to import photos in iPhoto and Image capture when I was running SL 10.6.8 on my older MacBook.
    Did you try quitting everything, restart the Mac and then try again?
    Are there any updates at all for the Mac? I was helping one user not all that long ago and there were updates for her Mac software that had nothing to do with the OS and when she downloaded the updates - the iPad was then recognized in iTunes.

  • Image properties

    Anyone know how to extract image properties.
    I've a file upload which enables users to auto upload their photo.
    Restrictions on the upload need to be file size which I can do, and height/width to ensure the photo fits into a fixed window size. This is the bit I'm stuck on.
    The file upload uses jsp and java.
    Any help appreciated
    Thanks

    Please tell us more about your code.
    Do you have a Image or BufferedImage object at some point?
    If so can you use
    int w = yourImage.getWidth(null);

  • Where will i find iphoto images in my backup

    ok so i backed up my macbook pro but can't seem to find my iphoto images.  there isn't the option to search for all pictures like there would be on the mac and when i click on the iphoto icon in my pictures folder it just brings up a box and tells me how many kb it is.
    i've looked everywhere but can't see it and don't want to download mavericks till i'm sure i have everything i need backed up (just in case)

    Make a note of the size of the iPhoto library in your Time Machine backups.
    Close Time Machine
    Click the  Finder icon at the lower left of the dock on the Mac's screen
    Open the Pictures folder
    Click on the iPhoto Library to highlight it
    Click the gear icon above the window and click Get Info
    Note the size of the iPhoto library
    The size of your iPhoto library should match the size of the iPhoto library in your Time Machine backups
    Assuming that is the case, your iPhoto library is backed up

  • How to get image properties in PDF using javascript or plug ins

    Hi
    How to get the image(all the images) properties in PDF using javascript or suggest plug ins
    Thanks in Advance

    HI,
    In the PDF Edit API's ( as has already been suggested) there is the PDEImage and using this you should be able to find out everything you need to know about any image in a PDF file.
    I would recommend starting with PDEImageGetAttrs
    Hope this helps

  • How to see iPhoto images in finder?

    How do I see iPhoto library images in Finder, and also how do I access iPhoto images to download them as album artwork in iTunes?

    In general, you don't see the iPhoto images in the Finder. iPhoto replaces the Finder for everything you do with your images.
    For help accessing your photos in iPhoto see this user tip:

  • HT201250 Time machine include external iPhoto images?

    Hi,
    I have my iPhoto images held on an external drive. When I use time machine (incidently the same drive) with iPhoto open, will it save the iPhoto files from that library?
    Ta

    Thats a tricky one...
    My time machine settings has the time machine drive excluded under options in the preference pane.
    Coincidently it isnt backing up anything on that drive (there other files other than the time machine backup).
    My iPhoto Library lives on another external drive and it is happily backing that drive up....
    Hope that helps.

  • Upgraded to iOS4 on my iPhone 3GS and now iPhoto images are blurred...WHY?

    I've just upgraded to iOS4 on my iPhone 3GS and the iPhoto images are blurred? WHY?
    They were fine before...so now my screen saver is blurred and looks low res...all my images are crap quality...what is going on Apple?
    Checked the photos on my laptop and they are crystal clear...anyone else have the same problem?
    I wish I'd stuck with the old software now.

    I also had the same issue. I upgraded my iPhone 3Gs to the new software about a week ago. Yesterday the photos on my phone were blurry. I "googled" the issue and ended up here. Synced my phone and now all is well! thanks for the help.

  • Bulk Edit Image Properties

    I'm creating a site with numerous slideshows (sometimes with 50 pictures or more) and it's looking like the only way to enter the image properties is to click on each thumbnail image to bring it up at the top and then right click on it and go to image properties.
    Please someone tell me there's a better, more efficient way to do this!
    Thanks

    mykellysue, I think you may have misunderstood the original post and Sachin's reply. The original post was about setting the properties of an image (referring to alternate text and/or tooltip text). Those properties are normally set by right clicking on an image, selecting "Edit Image Properties" and entering the values. In this case the customer had many images. In that case you can select multiple images in the Assets panel and set their properties all at once.
    As far as how to use a Composition widget, a composition widget is made up of a set of related containers. A trigger container (which you click on or mouse over) and a target container (which appears in response to interaction with the trigger.
    For the most part you can put anything you want in the trigger container or the target container and you can add or remove pairs of containers to/from most Composition widgets.
    Some of the Composition widgets in the Widget Library panel contain sample content. Ultimately these are just samples. You can select and delete the sample content and drag in whatever is needed for your design.
