IPhoto photo size limit

I heard the presenter in today's keynote mention "up to 19Mb" limit for new iPhoto.  What does this realistically mean?  What if I have 21 Mb photos?

Sorry to have been unclear.  The NYT article was just mentioning the availability of iPhoto for iPad.  if you read the last two paragraphs of the article on page 2, it is mentioned there.
I also saw mention of it on DP Review in the Mac forum.  (I had a lot of time on my hands today while backing up and downloading things related to my iPhoto crisis.  Way too much time to kill where I couldn't leave the computer.)
Here is a link to the app store:  http://www.apple.com/ipad/from-the-app-store/apps-by-apple/iphoto.html
Here is an article from a tech publication. 
http://blogs.computerworld.com/19845/apples_new_ipads_iphoto_app_and_a_future_fo r_photoshop
Apple's head engineer for photo and video application, Randy Ubillos, demonstrated the new app. When he did, he noted that the software can work with images of up to 19-megapixels in size (bigger images than you can edit using Photoshop Touch).
In other words, photographers in the field will be able to perform a series of image improvement tasks on their pictures while they are on location. Using their iPad. Which they can then use to upload the image in many different ways. The new iPad

  • Increase photo size limit

    I have an 8100 and would like to be able to receive photos.  I was told be T-Mobile the current file size limit for photos is 300 kb; is there a way to increase that?  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks,

  • IPhoto Book Size limit

    Hello
    Can anyone tell me if there's a limit to the number of pages you can get printed in a book?
    And... can anyone tell me why, when I try to buy the book online, the quantity drop down box is shaded out?
    Thanks...

    Hi Mary,
    I am using iPhoto 6, and I see in another of your posts that you say you are using iPhoto 5, so I do not know if how I make an iPhoto Book movie will work for you. Would it be possible for you to update to iPhoto 6?
    So remember, these directions are for iPhoto 6 which I have. No, I do not "put music just to the photo album that feeds my iPhoto Books and then play a slide show in iPhoto". Rather, I create a book in iPhoto. Then when I click "Play" to "play the book" in iPhoto, a screen/menu shoots down that allows me to choose my "Settings" and/or my "Music" that I want to go along with my book. Under "Settings", then under "Transitions", I like to choose "Page Flip" to look like a real book with turning pages, plus I can choose which direction I want the pages to flip. I can also set the number of seconds per page that I want each slide/page to show. Then under "Music", depending on how long the book is, I can choose the appropriate length/style of music from Sample Music, or iTunes music, to go along with the book I have created. Once I have chosen my "Setting" & "Music" I then click on "Save Settings" still on the shoot-down menu. I then play/preview through the book, with pages flipping, and music in the background, just to check if I need to make any corrections, or if I am okay to proceed.
    If I am happy with the photo positions on each page, the music, & the transitions, I then go to the Main iPhoto menu at the top of my computer and under "Share" the "Send to iDVD" can be chosen [I am assuming that you have an iDVD burner, Mary [although you will not really be burning a disc for this project]?
    At this point, Mary, I am repeating what I had typed into my original post on this topic:
    Once I have prepared my iBook, I can use the pull down menu in iPhoto for "Share" and there send the iBook project to "Send to iDVD" where the iBook is converted to use by iDVD. This may take a few minutes, but iDVD will open it. At that point, just quit it and click on "Don't Save" when you are asked if you want to save. Next, check in your finder where your movies are saved. There you should find the name of your book if you named it, or "untitled book" if you did not. Yep, it is saved. Once you locate your book, you can double click on it and watch your book in Quick-Time Player. I not only watch the books I make on my computer, but also load them on to my iPod.
    I hope this is clear, but if you have any more questions, just let me know. I love the way this method for preparing a book/video turns out for my own uses. It really looks like a book with the photos positioned on each page as I choose them to look.
    This is a different topic than the above: I only used the PDF method of making a book/movie that has been suggested to me, and to you, when I created a book OVER 100 pages which iPhoto will NOT allow. With the PDF pages, I was able to create two volumes to the book, and then save them to PDF pages, and then combine those two files, and put them together in my iDVD program by making a slideshow that was put together to resemble a page flipping book. That book/movie had 165 pages of photos with music.

  • Video file size limit in iPhoto??

    I recently used my entire 2 gig memory stick in video mode on my Sony H1 digital camera. Upon connecting the camera to my iMac, iPhoto did launch, but after repeated trys, there was no 25 minute video in my iPhoto gallery. This has always worked before, although always with shorter clips. I am wondering if iPhoto has a file size limit for video clips?
    iMac G5 20 1.8 GHz - 512MB Ram   Mac OS X (10.4.1)  

    Hi Forest,
    When iPhoto 5 first came out I really think it was programmed to import the smaller 30 sec video clips that cameras were taking at the time. Since then, digital cameras, at least my Canon S2 can take clips as large as your memory card can hold. The first time I tried to download my images and movie clips with my new camera, iPhoto stalled at the movie clips. I wasn't going to take any chances messing up my iPhoto Library so I started using Image Capture to download all my images and Movie clips. I actually like doing it this way a lot better. My movie clips are downloaded into my Movies folder where I then put them in a dated folder.
    My photos are downloaded into my Pictures folder, where I then put them in a dated folder. I import the dated folder into iPhoto. I also keep all dated folders from photo downloads in the Pictures folder till I get enough Movie folders and Photo folders to fill a DVD. I burn them and then delete them from the hard drive.
    This way I have the photos in iPhoto and I also have just the photos backed up to DVD.
    The Movies I keep on the hard drive in their dated folders until I use all the clips for my iMovie projects for the Year. I then make sure they are all burned to DVD, then I delete those from my hard drive.
    Using Image Capture to download images and video clips:
    Open up Image Capture which is found in the Applications folder.
    When it is opened, go to Image Capture/Preferences
    Under the General button choose
    Camera: When a camera is connected, open Image Capture.
    The next time you connect your camera Image Capture will open.
    In the window that opens you will see an Options button. Click on that button to set your options.
    To find out more about Image Capture (it can do a lot more) Click on Help in the menu bar when Image Capture is open.
    iPhoto: How to Change the "Open Automatically" Preference
    If you find you can't change any of Image Captures preferences or can't access any drop down menus or they are greyed out, check to make sure Image Capture is loose in the Applications folder and not within a sub folder.

  • I have a problem with iPhoto on my iMac.  Under the view site, I am unable to get to the photo size function.  It is grayed out

    Under the view designation in iPhoto, the photo pane and photo size options are grayed out.  How can I get them turned back on so I can modify the size of small old photo I have scanned in.

    There is no way to increase the size of a photo image once it's been scanned/taken.  If you want larger images from a scanned image scan it at a higher resolution, dpi.
    Additionally, with the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you mean by "view designation"?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • Is there a size limit on photo attachments that can be opened

    whenever i try to open a large photo attachment (most recently, i tried a 3.5mb jpeg i sent myself from one email account to another), the iphone will download the entire file, but instead of opening the file i am given the boxed ? (question mark) with the blue background as if the iphone does not recognize the file format. however it is definitely a jpeg file. this only happens when i try to open files of larger size (maybe 2.5 mbs and up..)
    is there a size limit that the iphone will recognize photos?
    i am using a 16gb iphone 3G
    Message was edited by: Abbstrack

    There is no file size limit that I'm aware of.
    When I receive an email with a large photo attachment or with a number of photo attachments, the photo or photos may not appear automatically opened as inline or viewed in place depending on my internet connection at the time - wi-fi or the cellular network, which requires selecting the attachment to download and open the attachment. I haven't received a boxed ? mark on a blue background - not yet anyway.

  • Photo Sizes in iPhoto

    When I import directly from my digital camera, the photos are "manageable" in size - about 1.0MB. However, I just imported photos from a professional photographer for an event and each photo is 4.0MB or larger. I want to upload some of these to a website, but they need to be under 0.8MB.....Can I set iPhoto a size dimension to import at a max size?  Also, how can I reduce the photo size of the ones I just imported to a manageable size?

    Select the photo(s) and export (file menu ==> Export) using the custom size option to set the maximum pixel dimension you want

  • After installing Aperture and leaving photos in iPhoto library, why did iphoto library size almost double?

    I installed Aperture and chose to leave all my images in the iPhoto library until I became more comfortable/familiar with Aperture.
    I was looking at my hard drive space and see that the available space went way down.  In Finder, the Aperture library.ap library is 17.97 gb and the iPhoto library is 122.75 gb.
    When I open iPhoto, it says that it contains 19349 images/87 gb.
    What happened?  Is that extra size related to the Aperture referencing the images?  Should I delete and start over, and move all the images into Aperture so that they are managed there?
    I'm just figuring my way around Aperture, and I'm trying not to over-think the organizational differences, but this size discrepancy seems a bit too much.

    I wish I had more info for this but I'm stumped. As I said there is no reason Aperture would increase the iPhoto library size by importing iPhoto's library.
    BTW how did you do the import, that might shed some light on the problem.
    The image count between the backup and the live iPhoto libraries seems fairly consistent so why the jump in size I can't say. And as for the increase in the number of images in Aperture, you started with an empty Aperture library, correct? And did you import anything directly into Aperture since you did the iPhoto import?
    I'm still a little confused on the whole thing where Aperture shows both original and edited versions of an image, and some show both RAW & JPEG versions of an image,
    Well Aperture really doesn't show both the original and edited versions, all you ever see are the versions unless you specifically ask to see the master. When you import an image into Aperture a version of the master is automatically made and displayed. Because at this point the version is no different then the master (you haven't made any adjustments to it yet) the version looks exactly like the master but it is the version you are seeing.
    As for the RAW & JPG thing, if you shoot both RAW + JPG's in your camera when you import them you have the choice of which to make the master or to make each one a master. Not sure if that is what you are referring to.
    I'm wondering whether I would have been better off just moving the whole iPhoto library into Aperture at the beginning, and deleting the iPhoto library.
    That is definitly one option and the option most users who switch eventually make. You're not going to want to have both programs handeling your photos. But you should probably hold off until you;re more omfortable with Aperture and make sure you have a good backup of the iPhoto library before you do anything.
    Remember when you import the iPhoto library into Aperture you're only choice is to copy the images not move them. This is done so that you can make sure all went OK before doing anything with iPhoto.
    If you have the room you could try bringing in the iPhoto library backup, and trying the import again into a new empty Aperture library.

  • I to want photo sizes given in inches in iPhoto on my new iMac. How is that done?

    How can I change photo sizes in iPhoto on my new iMac to inches, not cm? Also is it possible to print 2 "4x6" photos on 1 11x8 photo paper? Thanks in advance.

    You don't need to get to preview to take a screenshot.  Here are the key combinations for screenshots:
    Command-Shift-3
    Capture the screen to a file
    Command-Shift-Control-3
    Capture the screen to the Clipboard
    Command-Shift-4
    Capture a selection to a file
    Command-Shift-Control-4
    Capture a selection to the Clipboard
    Use Command-Shift-4 to capture just the part you want to save.

  • IPhoto book - How to ensure if photo size is enough ?

    How to ensure if photo size is enough for the XL size I select? It appers good on the preview, does it confirm it will turn out to be same when printed out? Thanks!

    If you do not have am image size warning and you preview your book it will be fine -
    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.

  • Is there a file size limit of each pic /or total of all pictures for iBook

    I am putting together an iPhoto book using pages of several pictures each I have composed in Photoshop. I then import these pages as a jpeg or psd to iPhoto. I am finding the jpegs often do not import (with message explaining, etc) but that the psd documents do import. These are rather large documents because of the several pictures used on each page. I am planning to do 30 double sided full bleed pages and I am concerned the finished book will be refused because the completed book file is to large. Should I be? Another way to put this could be: is there a size limit of each page or the total size of the book that iPhoto will accept for an individual book?

    Your best bet would be to make duplicate of your iPhoto Library folder and then open the duplicate and delete all the photos that do not belong to the book. Keep the book in the Source pane however. If you think some photos might be added later then keep them also.
    Now the iPhoto Library folder will be small enough to burn to disk (just drag the folder onto a mounted, blank disk and burn via the Finder). That folder can then be copied from the CD to the desktop of the other computer and opened with iPhoto to continue with the fine tuning. I'd rename the library folder to something like "Book Library" before burning to disk. This method is also a great way of preserving the book after you've ordered it in case you want to order a second copy at a later date. I create a special library for all my books for that exact reason. Once ordered and burned, I can reorder the same book later on even if I have a catastrophic drive crash in the meantime.

  • Photo size and uploading to Apple

    I'm in the process of making a quite large iPhoto book for my SIL for her b'day. The photos are a compiltion from many of mine, and others sent to me by family members. They are all different sizes, resolution, color and B/W.
    After getting them organized, doing a bit of fixing on PS, I now am ready to get them into iPhoto.
    Is it wise to take them all into Lightroom where I can do an easy batch change of the resolution? I have read where they should be around 300. It is easy to change them and the test prints I did at home looked ok, even on the small ones that aren't too big to start with. On the export menu of Lightroom, I have the option of stating whether I want them to be exported at JPG, Tiff etc., and I can change the resolution and photo size too.
    I probably would export them as JPG, 300 res. and not change their size. Is this ok for the iPhoto books?
    Also, if they are of a higher resolution, I assume it will take quite a while to upload them to Apple even with high speed fiberoptic cable internet service.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.
    Thanks, Allie

    Allie:
    DO NO USE Lightroom as it messes up the metadata and makes the files not useable in iPhoto. You do not have to preprocess the files to set the dpi to 300 specifically. The only important feature of the file is the pixel dimensions. If the pixel dimensions are large enough as you state you can leave them as is. iPhoto will fit them into the frame you choose and the dpi will be determined that way. No matter what size the files are the book is converted into a pdf file for uploading and printing. My last book of nearly 100 pages came in at approx. 25MB.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Ideal photo size (pixels) for viewing in iPod Touch?

    I would like to move some of my photos from iPhoto to my new iPod Touch, but the photos are very large. What would be the ideal high resolution photo size for viewing in the iPod?
    Thanks.

    I'm guessing that you are looking for the actual screen size in pixels .. maybe someone will know that but I do know that on the apple site they mention the video being 640x480 pixels, so that might be a size to try.
    http://www.apple.com/ipod/compare-ipod-models/#moreinfo
    Though so long as you have it in the same proportions .. when the image should transfer even at higher resolution to the size of the screen and avoid the black bars that I guess is the reason for taking the trouble with this

  • Belle email transmit 2MB size limit - what exactly...

    There are multiple threads here which claim there is a 2MB size limit on sent emails - unless when you set up the email account you DECLINE the terms and conditions.
    HOW ON EARTH DOES THIS WORK????
    Maybe Nokia are providing an email service (like Yahoo or Hotmail, etc) in which case, yes.
    But any "normal" email user is going to configure a POP server for receiving, and an SMTP server for transmitting. Surely, if you transmit emails via your configured SMTP server, there cannot be any Nokia-imposed email size limit?
    The only way there might be a universal limit would be if Belle, quietly and transparently, ignored the SMTP server settings and actually sent the email to some Nokia-operated SMTP server, together with the login details of the SMTP server which you configured in the phone, and the Nokia server then passed the email on to your one.
    There is a separate issue with sending attachments from the Gallery (photos or movies) whereby the invocation of the email app (via the Send / Email menu) crashes the email if the attachment size is bigger than about 500k bytes. It happens only if the email app is thus invoked. It happens with both the Nokia Gallery app and with 3rd party picture album apps. It does not happen if one starts a fresh email and then attaches files to it (which just happen to be images) and I have successfully sent myself 40MB emails that way.
    However if the email app crashes, or fails to send the email due to persistent poor mobile data connectivity, any attachments will be left orphaned in the 1000484b folder and will eat up your c: space, so one needs to do this with caution.
