IPhoto puts pictures into megazoom when edited

Has anyone found a fix for iPhoto when images are edited and then they go automatically into a megazoom when viewing?

Are you editing in an external editor?

IPhoto '09: Pictures turn black when editing

Now I know there are several fixes for this, but it appears that none of them work.
I have a Kodak camera and I took the SD card out and put it in my iMac. I dragged the photos into iPhoto. The thumbnails looked fine, but when I click Edit or Slideshow, the photos are completely black. I tried rebuilding the library, using iPhoto Photo Manager, and manual rebuild, but it still happens.
Please help me!
Sincerely,
Trae

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you still have the photos on the memory card? If so drag them to a folder on your Desktop and see if you can open them with Preview.
If you don't have them on the memory card try exporting the files using the Original format, to a folder on the Desktop and try Preview on them. Report back with the results.

Importing iphoto 09 pictures into imovie 09 with ken burns movement!

Im making a video on imovie 09 using still images i took and imported to iphoto. Then i import those iphoto pictures into imovie, BUT all the pictures have moving "ken burns" crop effects on them after i import them to imovie!!! i know how to fix it, by going to the "crop tool" and "ken burns" adjusting the start and end effect of this movement but my question is....
how do i change this setting so I dont have to tediously use the cropping ken burns tool on every clip which will probably make all the images appear shaky??????

Go to FILE/PROJECT PROPERTIES and you can set the default behavior when importing photos to the project.

Iphoto combined pictures into a single event

Iphoto took it upon itself to combine all my pictures before a certain date into one event. After that date and before another date, the thumbnails are missing. After that second date, everything is fine.
I have trashed the plist,
restored from a backup
and rebuilt the library using iphoto and iphoto library manager.
Iphoto library manager gave me some good results but left duplicates in the one large event and didn't split a lot of the events properly.
Any other suggestions?

Since rebuilding the library didn't help you'll have to resort to regrouping the photos manually back into Events. One method is to create Smart Albums based on specific time frames. Then select the photos in that smart album and create a new event with them.
When that's done you can create a new library, open the old library in the Finder, go to the Originals folder and drag the new Event folders into the new iPhoto library. That will at least give you the events you created and leave out those duplicates (just import the new events that you created).

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) 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 or later), 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. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. 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.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

Putting pictures into iTunes

I need some help with this. I am trying to put a couple pictures of mine into itunes and then transfer it to my ipod.
When I try and drag the photo into iTunes nothing appears. It doesn't work. I get a red circle with a cross in the middle indicating that it won't let me do it. The picture is in a .jpg format. What am i doing wrong?

you can't physically drag into itunes.
you have to have iphoto. or maybe theres is a windows app that will allow you to do it.
but you have to go into ipod prefs and the photo selection and choose to download an album or something to your ipod.
like I said I'm not particularly sure you can do this without iphoto.

How far does iPhoto preserve the RAW file when editing?

I'm trying to get a better understanding of how iPhoto handles RAW photos and hope you'll answer a humble, possibly misguided question:
How far through the editing process does iPhoto preserve RAW data?
Here's what I mean by this: I understand that iPhoto cannot "edit" a RAW file, but there are a couple of ways it look like it was. Let's take a WB adjustment as an example.
Option 1: "Convert on import." iPhoto converts the RAW to a JPG when I import the file (or begin to edit it). Then adjusting the WB will be a filter applied to a JPG file (meaning there wasn't much advantage to shooting RAWs in the first place)!
Option 2: "Fully RAW." iPhoto imports the RAW file and then "processes" it whenever you display or print it. When you edit it (e.g., adjusting the white balance), it keeps track of the new parameters (e.g., WB, or contrast, or cropping, etc.) and then uses these parameters the next time it processes the RAW for display. This would mean, for example, that there would be no difference in quality between
A. Taking a freshly-imported RAW and setting the white balance to X, and
B. Taking a freshly-imported RAW, setting the white balance to Y, closing iPhoto, re-opening iPhoto then editing the picture again and changing the WB to X.
Option 3: "Somewhere in-between." Files are imported as RAW, but then converted to JPG at the end of the first editing. Subsequent edits are treated as JPG edits (including the resulting loss in image quality with each edit).
Can anyone clarify this? How does the answer differ for different types of edits (e.g., WB vs. image rotation vs., expanding the highlights, etc.)? Is the answer different for Aperture vs. iPhoto?
Thanks!
-Mike

How about the 4 th option... None of the above.
Option 3 is closest. As the Help says:
When you edit a RAW-format photo and click Done, iPhoto applies your changes to the RAW image data and stores the data as a JPEG file (the original RAW file remains unchanged).
It can also be saved as tiff is you prefer.
Here's where it's different from your option 3:
Subsequent edits are treated as JPG edits (including the resulting loss in image quality with each edit)
There is no loss of image quality with each edit because of iPhoto's _[Non-Destructive Editing Feature|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iPhoto/7.0/en/11464.html]_ .
You can, of course, re-process the RAWs if you choose. This will bring you right back to the Original file.
Aperture is quite different. It's at your option 2

Transfer photos from iPhoto (iOS) to iPhoto Mac, keeping original photo when edited?

I've been on a vacation and used iPhoto on my iPad Mini to save and edit a few pics on the go. I want to transfer these photos to my Mac (iPhoto), but I also wan to keep the original photo for the edited ones. This is very easy for iOS devices as you can transfer them wirelessly between the devices, but I haven't found a similar way between my iOS device and the Mac. I can transfer the pictures either via iTunes or the camera roll, but both these ways only transfers the edited picture, not the original. Any one knows?

Use iOS 6.0.1 on your device and a computer running Mountain Lion (OSX 10.8.x) and the latest version of iPhoto.
With iCloud and PhotoStream turned on, photos shared to the Camera Roll or taken with the device are copied to your PhotoStream. When you start iPhoto on your Mac you'll see a PhotoStream selection in the left column your Camera Roll Photos will be there. Copy them to the albums you want to store them in or export them to other folders on your computer for back up.

I have a question that I think I know the answer to, but am looking for confirmation. I have a dell computer at home that has clip art available on it for putting pictures into documents. Do I need to install an APP to get something similar to clip art?

I have a question that I think I know the answer to, but am looking for confirmation. I have a desktop computer at home that has clip art loaded onto it. I recently got an iPad and am looking for something similar. I assume I need to get an APP for it, and if that is correct, does anyone have one that they like?

Sort of. There is an app called art shop that gives you a place to park clip art. But I don't think you really need it.
If you have a collection of clip art you want available, move it to the camera roll on your pad/ phone, then copy paste into your document the clip you want.
You can get them into the camaera roll by putting them in a single event in your picture library and syncing them over, or e mail them to your self, and save to the camera roll, or send them to drop box, and bring them down that way.
The challenge is getting them all in one place to make it easy for you to find, which is why syncing might be the best approach in the long run.
As near as I can tell there is not a ready made clip art collection in app format laying around.

Why does my iPhoto freeze the whole computer when editing?

Every time I edit in iPhoto, the whole computer freezes after about a dozen adjustments of any kind. I have to manually shut down and restart as no key commands allow access to any other app or the Finder.

Hi, Terence ~
I'm using iPhoto '11, v. 9.1.5
with ± 5,000 photos in current iPhoto Library
running SnowLeopard, 10.6.8 --
capacity: 750 GB; available 695 GB
on my Mac mini >>>
Model Identifier:          Macmini1,1
Processor Name:          Intel Core Duo
Processor Speed:          1.66 GHz
Number Of Processors:          1
Total Number Of Cores:          2
L2 Cache:          2 MB
Memory:          2 GB
Bus Speed:          667 MHz
Boot ROM Version:          MM11.0055.B08
SMC Version (system):          1.3f4
The freezing has been happening for quite some time, since before I upgraded to Snow Leopard, before I upgraded to iPhoto '11 from iPhoto '09, before I upgraded my mac mini from a solo ore machine to a duo core with much more HD space, etc. I think it started when I first installed iPhoto '09 , but my memory fails me. I have had other events interspersed with this recurring annoyance, hoping that it would go away during one of the upgrades I mentioned. However, it persists. I have wondered about reinstalling iPhoto, but do not know if that means I will lose all my editing changes.
I do not know about any Console messages you refer to, but perhaps I am missing something. How would I find out? I do know that I am exhausted and frustrated by this. When the editing process causes the freezing, I cannot use any of the key escapes, cannot even shut down other than manually. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you for taking an interest in my dilemma.

Iphoto - organizing Pictures into albums

In iphoto, I drag photos to an album and it bounces back. Album won't take it, like its full. I've been doing it all night and all of a sudden I cant add anymore. Any help

Album won't take it, like its full. I've been doing it all night and all of a sudden I cant add anymore.
Can you drag photos to albums, if you open a different iPhoto library? Try to create a new library, import a few photos, create an album. Can you add photos to this album?
If yes, try, if repairing your iPhoto library will help. Hold down the keys ⎇⌘, while launching iPhoto and keep holding them down, until you are seeing the First Aid panel:
Try all First Aid options in turn. Before rebuilding, make sure you have a working backup.

Importing pictures into iPhoto and Mac

Hello,
I like to store my pictures on an external hard drive that I share with my Mac and other PCs and media sharing (PS3, Wii) consoles. I use the iPhoto to organize my pictures on the Mac by event/faces/places etc. But I do not want to use the iPhoto's library to store my pictures. The pictures need to go into my external hard drive.
I do want to use my Mac as the computer to move the pictures from my camera onto my external hard drive. When moving the pictures to my external hard drive, I like to setup a separate folder for each event and name my pictures with the event name and a sequence number.
I have accomplished some of this by setting the preference in iPhoto to not copy the pictures into library when importing.
I am looking for some type of seamless solution to accomplish the following
When I insert the SD card into my Mac, I want it to allow me to copy my pictures where I want them with the names I want to give it and then finally move them to iPhoto for me to organize them using events/faces/places.
If any of you are familiar with the Microsoft Scanner and Camera Wizard, I am looking for something like that. This software automatically starts up when you connect any camera to it. It brings up all the pictures in the camera and then allows you to select or deselect the pictures you want to move. It then prompts you to enter the file prefix and folder where you want to copy the pictures. Also gives you option to delete the pictures after import. Once you click the button, it starts to copy the pictures and it even lets you publish the pictures to web if you choose to do so.

Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) will do some of what you want. There are other apps that will do batch renaming and so on.
Some comments on your proposed set up:
Having the Library on one volume and the photos referenced from another can be very problematic. iPhoto uses a very simple tool for workign with Referenced Libraries: Aliases. Aliases are perfectly good when the Library and the photo are on the same volume - the alias will track when the original moves and so on. However, if anything changes in the path to a file on another volume the alias will break, and you'll may find yourself repairing it manually for everyone of these photos, one by one.
Another point to bear in mind, the edited versions of photos will not be available to the other devices.
Iphoto may not be the app you want for this job.

Lost iPhoto and pictures

Tonight opened iPhoto and was prompted to select a library. I chose the library I thought was the correct one (I only have two choices iPhoto or Pictures) and now when iPhoto opens I have all the thumbnails but when I click to open them all I get is a black screen with an "!" mark.
I have tried all the usual procedures such as opening with "Option & Cmd" buttons held and rebuilt
all #1,2, & 6, or only "option" held to choose new library all to no avail.
Furthermore, when I went back to my Pictures folder all I have is a folder which went clicked on opens iPhoto. If I right-click on this folder then I can see all my other contents. I have tried to select-all in the this folder to drag onto the Pictures folder but all I get is a pop-up saying it can't be opened because "Pictures" may be damaged or incomplete
Using a cmd line from a previous problem I was able to get my "Pictures" folder back to what it should be (after several goes during which it kept reverting back).
Can anyone offer some advice on how I can open up my photos please?

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 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.
