Movies, Music, but no photos... what am I doing wrong?

Hi gang,
I can't figure out how to see my photos from iPhoto on my iPad. I've got 4.3, I can see my shared music libraries, and videos, but not my photos. How do I do that?
Thanks,
dp

ISharing only works for music and video, not for pictures.

After exporting to quicktime file, the file has sound but no video, what am I doing wrong?

after exporting to quicktime file, the file has sound but no video, what am I doing wrong? The self contained movie box is not checked.

Hi
Did You go via Compressor ?
Did You use QuickTime Conversion ?
I don't
I do
• In TimeLine set In and Out-Points to the full Movie/Project
• Select ALL - Clips and Audio
• Go up to Sequence and down to Render Only - down to Mix Down Audio
• then Sequense and Render Selected - Both (Video and Audio)
• then Export and as QuickTime .mov (NOTHING ELSE)
• I use to do - Not Self-Contained as it saves both time and space

Anniversaries are not available as a calendar item in the same way birthdays are. You would need to create a specific calendar and add those manually.

Go to sounds in system pref and select outputs. When the hdmi cable is plug into the tv it will show as an option under output. Just select that option.

Can not use my backup photos, what am I doing wrong?

I am having problems using the photos from my external hard drive. I switch library, and get all the thumbs up in iphoto. When I try to edit them or export in any way, I am not allowed to. This is very frustrating, can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

n555:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The "!" in the edit window indicates that iPhoto has lost the link to the original file in the Originals folder. Check in the Originals folder to make sure you have the full sized image files in there.
Did you rename or move any files/folders in the iPhoto Library folder from the Finder? That's one way to get the situation you're experiencing but it would be only for those you tampered with. Since it's the entire library then you've probably fallen victim to the damaged database file problem that hit a lot of users.
If the full sized image files are there you can try to rebuild the library as follows: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select all of the options. I'm not optimistic that the rebuild will recover your library but it's worth a try.
If the rebuild does not work you'll have to start a new library and import the image files from the damaged one as follows:
1 - rename the iPhoto Library folder that's on the external HD.
2 - launch iPhoto with the Option key depressed and, when asked, select Create a new library, navigate to the external HD and do so.
3 - with the new library open, drag the Originals folder from the old library into the open iPhoto window.
This will give you a new library with the same rolls as the old one. However you'll lose your albums, slideshows, keywords, etc.
To help protect from this type of problem in the future check out the tip at the end of my signature.
Do you Twango?
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.

Emailing photo - what am I doing wrong

I have just purchased photoshop elements 9, I have a mac, and I am trying to email a photo which I have adjusted to the size requested which is 1300 w x 1000 h pix at high res, the photo is of the Beatles from 1965 but when I click email attachments a box comes up with a logo which is like something broken, whenever I try to send the picture via regular email it is never the right size, I even paid someone to do it on to a disc and it is still not right when I email it, IT IS ALWAYS TO SMALL, this picture is going to be used on a website header so it is holding everything up what am I doing wrong can anyone help.
Thanks

Do you use OS X mail? Put the photo on the desktop so you know where it is, start a new message in mail, click the attachments button and navigate to the copy you want to send.
Do not use PSE or the Photo Browser in mail. Either will resize the image.

Muddy photos--what am I doing wrong?

Hello all,
I'm a newish Lightroom user. I feel that my photos usually look very muddy around the edges/details when zoomed in in Lightroom.
I am attaching an example that I shot RAW using Canon 5D Mark II with the 24-70mm lens. Is it something I'm doing wrong either when shooting or with post processing?
Thanks so much for any answer.

Basics are not adjusted optimally, consider:
Exposure: Left (you got the whole thing, including midtones shifted too far rightward - highlights are getting jammed and blacks are unhinged).
Contrast: Left (it's a high contrast photo, with little need for midtone contrast, so it seems contrast reduction is called for - will help lift shadows and control highlights without excessive use of highlights & shadows sliders).
Highlights: Left (to preserve highlight detail).
Shadows: Right (to bring light into the woman's darkness).
Whites: Right (to keep dress bright and maintain sense of "contrast", and expand highlights for dress detail).
Blacks: Left (to get rid of that muddiness , and maintain sense of "contrast"). Note: with -contrast & +shadows, -blacks should not make the bottom end too dark.
Clarity to taste...
PS - As you know, you can also use tone curve for fine-tuning tonal distribution, but consider doing most of the heavy lifting with the basics.
PPS - Consider a touch of paint too, to perfect - e.g. +exposure -contrast in darker regions around face/hair - as long as -blacks is strong enough, this should not result in muddiness (or you could "cheat" and use a radial gradient instead of paint ).
Also, consider clicking auto-tone to see what Lr would do with it - can often be highly educational .
Summary: this is a photo that warrants full dynamic range, in my opinion - ideally there should be some black clipping and some white clipping. Within that dynamic range, basics, tone curve and local supplementation for most pleasing tonal distribution...
eh?
UPDATE:
I processed the jpeg screenshot and found a pleasing result by:
* dropping exposure a little bit (not as much as I expected would be needed).
* decreasing contrast a lot.
* increasing whites a lot.
* decreasing blacks a lot.
* minimal -highlights
* minimal +shadows
* one big radial gradient over shadow side (her right) of face (+exposure).
* one small radial gradient over other (her left) eye (+exposure).
* No clarity required.
* Bumped saturation (often helps restore "presence" when reducing contrast to satisfy tonal goals).
Points:
* Minimal use of shadows slider eliminated the harsh look and obviated need for -clarity.
* lowered exposure, coupled with -blacks assured -contrast did not result in loss of "clarity".
* strong -highlights not necessary once exposure dropped, and minimizing it kept photo looking "bright", despite reduced exposure (along with +whites).
* Indeed, all of this left the bride's face too dark, but that's what locals are for - a couple radial gradients and photo looks bright enough all around, with no muddiness.
About me: I'm not a super photographer, so I have to make up for it using Lightroom .
UPDATE #2:
You also asked about shooting - a little fill light (e.g. via flash or whatever else may have been handy, in this case on-axis (e.g. pop-up) would probably have been fine) would have helped and probably eliminated the need to use locals.
Just remember to remove the lens hood before shooting (wider angles) with on-camera flash, or else it casts a nasty shadow (I forget that regularly, so - note to self if not to you...).

Frames on photos - what am I doing wrong?

Hello,
I am having trouble figuring out something. I have re-sized a group of photos to ultiimately display on a photo gallery page and wanted to add frames to them. Whenever I apply a frame to the photo, the photo gets really small and a large area of canvas is added around the photo - I presume to the size of the original photo. It's okay if the photo is reduced a little to accommodate the frame but this is ridiculous looking - not to mention making it very difficult for me to choose a photo size that is appropriate. Am I doing something wrong? or is there a way to add a frame to a photo without creating such a large area around the photo? Sign me frustrated...
Webmom

Maureen,
I suppose you are using the frames under Artwork and Effects. Looking at
those for the first time, they appear to me as predefined layouts for album
pages or scrap books. I don't think they lend themselves too well for your
purpose. Following is a quote from PSE5 Help:
"To add a frame or theme to an image
When you add a frame or theme to a photo creation, frames appear with a
blank (gray) area for the image. Click and drag an image from the Photo Bin
to the blank area.
In the Artwork And Effects palette, do one of the following:
Click the Artwork icon. Choose Frames from the category menu, and then
choose a subcategory, such as Colorful.
Click the Themes icon. Choose an item from the category menu, such as
Scrapbook.
Do one of the following:
Select a thumbnail and click Apply.
Double-click a thumbnail.
Drag the thumbnail to the blank background.
Drag the desired image from the Photo Bin to the frame.
Use the slider to resize the image in the frame or theme border. When you're
finished, either click the Commit icon to apply the change, or click the
Cancel icon .
Use the Move tool to center the image. When you're finished, either click
the Commit icon to apply the change, or click the Cancel icon."
You will probably be better off doing your frames manually, as described by
Andrei. You can also use the Shape tool to create frames. Or you may want
to Google for some add-on frames, which you can install into Elements.

New computer -- can't find music on external drive - what am i doing wrong?

I have searched previous posts and cannot seem to find an answer.
Up until recently, I ran iTunes from my desktop, and housed the music on an external hard drive. Recently, I purchased a new laptop and transferred applications and files over from the desktop using Windows Easy Transfer.
I thought that simply pointing my laptop to the iTunes Music Folder location on the external hard drive was all I needed to do (F:\iTunes\MyMusic) but I seem to be mistaken, as I am getting the “iTunes cannot find the original files” messages when I click to play songs.
Have I missed something incredibly obvious here? I’ve been futzing around with this for a while now and tend to think I am missing the easy fix.
Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide.

Thank you for your response. The drives are in fact different letters -- I changed the drive name to correspond the original drive letter...but that doesn't seem to have fixed the problem.
Where I seem to stand is:
Old computer (with iTunes library) + external hard drive (with iTunes music) work just fine.
New computer -- iTunes library copied from old computer, iTunes music folder identified in iTunes, but iTunes can't find the music.
At this point, am I better off starting from scratch with the new computer (in terms of installing iTunes and moving my library over from my old computer)?
And if so, what would be the best way to approach this?
Thanks much.

Thankyou for downloading but no download, what am I doing wrong.

I have tried numerous times to download iTunes to a windows XP computer that meets all the requirements. I hit download, the screen then goes straight to 'thankyou for downloading" but nothing is happening. Initially Quicktime was doing the same but I have managed to get that installed. I have deleted history, followed numerous proceedures but still nothing. Even tried a second PC but its exactlt the same. I don't even get a box asking to save/run. In total I have tried for 7 hours continuously, performed multiple searches for iTunes on the PC but nothing. Only thing I have is apple software update in program files. But it doesn't work!
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Could it be something i have done in my settings?
or when i am saving the file to JPEG?

Basically you're approaching this the wrong way around. What you need is the extreme sections to be quieter, not louder. The problem with moving the lower end of the audio is that you'll move the noise floor too, and get what's generally referred to as a 'pumping' effect. So what you do is to use a compressor to tame the peaks, and leave the lower level sound alone. When you've done that, you amplify (or normalize to a level you can determine) the whole signal. So the noise floor will be higher, but constant and not pumping. 'Match Volume' is a completely different tool for setting the overall levels of different tracks so that they sound approximately the same - it doesn't even begin to do what you want.
If it's music you are treating, then I'd almost certainly use the multiband compressor, because you get less artefacts with this. You need to experiment with the threshold levels, and almost certainly not use a massive compression ratio - 3:1 or 4:1 should be sufficient (although it's hard to tell without actually hearing the audio). You can tell what it's doing at any given point because the downward meter indicates how hard it's working. In theory you can apply make-up gain with it as well, but personally I leave that until everything's treated and use the 'Normalize' tool to set an absolute max level.

HT1296 When I sync my iphone with Windows 7, the contact moves to my computer, but the contact is not complete. No phone numbers. What am I doing wrong? I have also tried sync-ing with Yahoo, and that doesn't work either.

The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

I am currently try to download music from Rhapsody to my daughter Ipod Touch 4th Generation. I have made the Apple ID: and went through the whole thing, but once the Ipod is plugged into my computer it doesn't show up in my media. What am I doing wrong?

You have to import the music into your iTunes library and then sync it to your iPod
