New MBP - Pinch (Zoom in and out) not working in iPhoto

Hello...I know it should work as it was working on the demo MBP in the apple store. Pinching is working in Preview and safari but not on desktop for icons and iPhoto.
Please , please help

I've also noticed that the iPhoto zoom is erratic. Sometimes I try to use the trackpad to zoom, but the image just blurs for a second instead of zooming in.
I experimented a little and found that it helps, when zooming in, to make sure that your two fingers are very close together when starting.

  • Cut and paste not working in iphoto

    I can't cut and paste between events in iPhoto any longer.  i tried flagging a photo but the add flag item to event was grayed out. how can you move photos between events.  i tried dragging but page didn't scroll very well so was a little inefficient

    I see, in the "Photos" album I cannot cut and paste either. I can cut the photo from the event, but not paste it into a different event, because It is impossible to select the event for pasting in the Photos album.
    @ Terence Devlin, is pasting into an event supposed to work inside the Photos album?
    I can paste into an event in the Events view. And dragging and dropping between events is working well in the Photos view.
    i tried flagging a photo but the add flag item to event was grayed out.
    This cannot work in Photos view, because "Add flagged items to the selected event" requires an event to be selected, an in the Photos album is no selected event. You can create a new event from the flagged photos and drag this event on top of the event where you want them to go.
    So, I am afraid you will have to switch between the Photos album and the Events view to move your photos around.

  • Drag and Drop not working in iPhoto

    I have a brand new MacBook Pro running Lion, and recently when I try to drag and drop in iPhoto, it stops working.  I want to drag photos from iPhoto to a folder on my desktop in order to upload those pictures online.  I have never had a problem with drag and drop in Snow Leopard, but suddenly Lion does not want to let me do it.
    I checked around and found out about repair permissions, which I did, then I restarted the computer.  Drag and Drop worked for a few minutes, then all the sudden it wouldn't let me again.  I was in the same album, trying to drag and drop the same group of pictures, and nothing had changed when it just stopped working again.  I really don't want to have to restart the computer EVERY time it wont let me do this.  Does anyone have any other advice?  Command copy/paste works for now, but drag and drop is just easier so I'd like to get the issue resolved!  Oh, and my software is completely up to date as well.

    Does anybody have any ideas?
    I've updated to the new version of iTunes since I originally posted this,
    but the drag and drop feature is still not working. This is making it
    impossible for me to update anything on my iPod.
    Thanks!

  • Addressbook and Messages not working with iPhoto-Faces

    Hey
    I've set up ML with an clean-install.
    I also set up iPhoto 11 (Mac-App Store updates installed directly after installing iPhoto 11) with my existing picture-library (upgrade of the library on first run was successfully).
    My problem: I cannot select any faces from iPhoto anymore. In Lion, I was able to set a Addressbook-picture from iPhoto, this doesnt work anymore
    Next, Messages is not showing my Addressbook-picture (currently set one) - but Mail does!
    If I try to select a new profile picture over Messages, Iam still not able to select something from iPhoto.
    So, where is the iPhoto-Faces integration?
    Thanks for help

    Hi,
    After setting up the iPhone and the Mac they should remain in fairly close contact as the Mac uses the iPhone's Carrier service to send the SMS.
    Whilst the setting up does not mention it the procedure looks a lot like Pairing Blue Tooth devices which gives you a range of 30 feet or so depending on surroundings.
    Having said that the specs say they two should be on the same WiFi Network (or network that the iPhone is WiFi Connected to be be correct) which would also limit coverage somewhat but  larger area than Blue Tooth.
    You then have to decide if it is possible your son went out of range of a suitable carrier service or whether your phone was moved too far form your Mac.
    If both your Mac and the iPhone are not maintaining the connection it would seem it is at the far end that the issue is happening.
    Is your son's phone maintaining:-
    1) Connection to a suitable service ?
    2) an SMS ability during that connection ?

  • I am trying to back up my new iphone through my itunes and its not working

    I am trying to set up my new iphone, and i need to back it up through itunes since i never backed my old one up with icloud, but once i select the "back up with itunes" on my phone startup, it tells me to connect to itunes, which i do and then my phone syncs, but nothing is transferred to my new phone, and the screen is stuck on saying "connected to itunes"

    I'll reload it tonight when I get home...basically, I bought a new iPhone and downloaded some new medical apps. also had to download an update for iTunes into my mac laptop so I could access iCloud (which was NOT on my prior iTunes software)
    When I synched my new iPhone with the newly downloaded iTunes, I registered my iphone and tried to "back it up" to iCloud and the message indicating that "the required file was not found or has a permissions error...." popped up.
    How do I correct the permissions error, or...am I able to do this somewhere? Or...how do I find the file that is missing?

  • Pinch in and out on trackpad not working to zoom in and out in firefox

    Ever since i bought my macbook pro (early 2011) I was able to use the pinch in and out trackpad feature to zoom in and out in firefox. This suddenly stopped working a couple of days ago. It still works in safari so this seems to be Firefox specific. All other trackpad features are still working too.
    I uninstalled Firefox on my mac by moving the Firefox icon to the trash and downloaded/installed it again. Note that i didn't delete my profile (just deleted the Firefox icon) so all bookmarks were preserved even after downloading and installing Firefox from scratch. This didn't help fixing the issue.
    Any ideas on this problem ? how to fix it?
    Thanks!

    All these programs seem to be for windows. I am facing the issues with firefox on a macbook pro.
    I wasn't suggesting resetting Firefox. I have already done this step a couple of days ago as I was facing connectivity issues with some websites completely freezing and not loading. reset didn't help. I started seeing the trackpad issue around the time i did the reset.
    I am wondering if uninstalling Firefox and deleting all data associated with it (profiles etc) would fix the issue. Can you advise on what should be deleted with firefox?

  • Firefox with my mac is not letting me pinch and close to zoom in and out on web pages

    Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4+ versions.
    You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.

    * browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    * browser.gesture.pinch.out -> <b>cmd_fullZoomEnlarge</b>
    * browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    * browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> <b>false</b>
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).

  • I have model A1458...been acting possessed.... apps opening and closing on their own...zooming in and out... not always responsive to my touch... what could be the problem?

    i have model A1458...been acting possessed.... apps opening and closing on their own...zooming in and out... not always responsive to my touch... what could be the problem?

    The two most likely culprits would be a faulty cable/charging block or a bad digitizer. Try charging the device with a different charger and cable. If the problem goes away, then the problem is with your charger. If it does not, try the basics of resetting, restoriing from back up, restoring as new. If you still have the problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store for evaluation.

  • Firefox 4 doesn't allow MacBook Pro Trackpad features to work, for eg. zooming in and out by "pinching"

    I downloaded Firefox 4 and immediately noticed I could not zoom in and out by using the two finger "pinch" action used on MacBook Pro trackpads.
    I reverted to Firefox 3.6 and it works just fine.
    Could you please advise me how to rectify the fault on Firefox 4

  • In version 4.0 I can't use the pinch feature on my trackpad to zoom in and out. Is there a setting in Firefox for this?

    I installed v4.0 of Firefox and can no longer use the pinch feature on the trackpad of my MacBook. It seems to work OK in Safart and I'm wondering if there is a setting in Firefox to enable me to use that feature. The way the feature works is that you pinch your thumb & forefinger together or spread them apart to zoom in and out.
