Photo Frame DPFC 1000

Contemplating purchase of this model but found the description of screen size somewhat confusing:
"Screen Size : LCD screen size: 10.1" (measured diagonally)Actual viewable size 9.1" (measured diagonally)"
What does that mean?
Thanks.
Solved!

Hello and welcome to the Users Discussion Forums.
Sorry for any of the screen size descriptions might have confused you. When looking at the photo frame picture, the viewable area (9.1'' measured diagonally) does not include the black border around the LCD panel (10.1'' measured diagonally).

Digital Photo Frame df1010v2 - how to download photos in the order they appear on USB?

Photos installed nicely into my df1010v2 digital photo frame, but not in the order I wanted them. I had painstakingly named all of them by date, and they appeared chronologically on the USB drive I copied them from, but they downloaded in random bunches. Does anyone know why this happened and whether there is a fix? Pictures are for my 90-year-old mother, and the weird order will confuse her. I do not have frame set to view in random sequence, but that's how they will appear to her P.S. Many of the photos are scans of old photos, so setting them to appear by date taken will not work here. Thank you for any help!

Hi,
If you are happy with PSE 6, why not continue to use it?
PSE 13 can display the images in date/time order like PSE 6 does. The time doesn't appear when you hover over a thumbnail but can be displayed below the thumbnail. The best thing is for you to download the trial version (select version 13 from the following link) and try it for 30 days to see if you like it.
Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10
If you use the trial, to see the date and time under each thumbnail you need to go to the View menu in the organizer and ensure that Details is checked.

Having trouble connecting Ipod to a digital photo frame

According to the photo frame manual, I follow the directions on page 7 to listen to my music - I did that. It tells me the file format has to be wma or mp3. I assume they are.
I've plugged ipod Nano into its USB cable and the USB cable into the frame in the correct location. Once the cable is connected, it lets me choose the option to hear my music, but none of the music on my ipod is showing up on the screeen. Frame says "no music in current deviced" (it thinks the ipod is blank, but I know it isn't).
When it's plugged into the frame it says on the ipod screen that it's "connected - eject before disconnecting" like it does when it's hooked to the laptop. It won't let me select music on the actul ipod when it's plugged into the frame.
I've emailed technical support at SmartParts for the Sync Pix photo frame, but I don't know how much help they will be.
I'm truly stumped, and I'm sure my random explanations are probably not helping. ;(
Thank You!

Good day Chakari. The photo frame supports images compatible with the Design rule for Camera File system (DCF)format. If the original images are not compatible with the DCF format, convert them to the DCF format before or after copying. The following are the DCF standards.
Image file names must be named DSCxxxxx.JPG , where the x represents a numerical digit.
Image files must be stored on the media in the DCF file structure
Its important to know, the DCF file structure requires a folder named DCIM on the media. Inside the DCIM folder should be a folder named 100MSDCF or 101MSDCF . The image files must be stored in one of these two folders.

Photo frame export from iphoto

i bourght a digital photo frame recently but am having trouble exportin from my iphoto library.
I need to export to the native resolution of the frame which is 480x234 to optimise the number of photos I can fit on the memory card (any larger is just a waste of memory because the frame shrinks the oversized picture to the frame resolution).
The problem is that when I uncheck the "full-size image box" I can't enter the desired size in the fields below, I get 480x380 as iphoto tried to preserve the 4:3 aspect ratio.
is there any way around this? can I change the aspect ratio to 16:9?
any help please?
cheers
Steve

Steve:
You can get exactly what you want by using Resize! as follows:
1- create a new folder on the desktop and drag your chosen photo into it.
2 - launch Resize! and under the Box resizing section put in your dimensions. You can also set the quality level for the files also in order to reduce the overall file size even more to what you want. I found that Decent (60) was plenty good enough for the digital frame that I have. It took my 2272 x 1704 files (at 1.7-2MB each) down to 480 x 234 and around 20KB each in size. That helps the frame read and transition the files much quicker.
The application creates a second folder with the resized images. So you can experiment with several settings to get what works best for you.
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.
I've written 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Photo frames

Does anyone know of a photo frame compatible with TIFF? There are hundreds out there but the only one I have found which takes TIFF is the new Toshiba DMF102XKU. (mark that down in case ever needed). It's 10" and would have to do for home use (many frames go to 12, 15, and even 19) but is too small for an exhibition space (business use). [I know I can convert all to JPEG, or somehow batch process, but don't want the bother.]
Also, as alternative, could use a tv/dvd combo but would need to put photos into a slide show DVD using software like ProShow Gold. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks for help.

There are some techniques people are using in print templates to get frame effects. Try searching for "lightroom print templates frames" in your fave web browser.

Photo Frame Question

I know that this is not an Apple Question but I haven't found a forum for this and I was curios if anyone else had run into this issue:
I have a Sylvania 10" Digital photo frame (I do not recommend this frame to anyone. Support on it is lousy to non-existant and I am still waiting for a replacement remote control for it which I ordered in March. I am using my harmony remote to control it right now.) which displays photos pretty well. It's resolution is 1024 x 600. The issue that I am seeing that I wonder if anyone else has seen on their digital photo frame, is that when I transfer photos from the mac to the photo frame and then view them with the quick view progam, the images are corrupted. Even Disk Verify shows that the jpg images are corrupted yet the photo frame has no problem displaying them. They look normal with no corruption at all. The files on my hard drive are fine with no corruption at all. Since I won't be using the frame as a backup for my photos anyway, its not an end of the world issue but I am curious if this happens with other digital photo frames. Interestingly enough, the disk utility sees the frame as having an unknown or unspecified partition with an MS-DOS Fat 32 format on it.
Thanks,
Patrick

Hello tweetybird53,
Thanks very much for purchasing the HP Digital Photo Frame. I regret that you are having some product and support challenges. Please email me with your HP case number or your product number, serial number and contact information so that we can get your issue resolved quickly.
The answer to the question, "Is there an HP service depot near where you live that you can take it there?" is no. Currently, customers can not drop off products at an HP service center. There is a process to follow that entails mailing in the product if it is coded for repair. In some cases, the defective product is simply replaced.
I look forward to assisting tweetybird53.
Regards,

I've created a photo book in iPhoto on my iPad. When I go to order it, it says that "Your Book contains Empty Photo Frames" but when I check each page, they all have photos. How to I order the book?

I've created a photo book in iphoto on my ipad. When I try to order it (by clicking the price of the book in the top right corner) it says that Your book contains empty photo frames - add photos to the empty frames, or change the page layout to include fewer photos" but when I look at each page, there are photos in all the frames. What do I need to do to order this book??????
Thanks so much for any help offered!

It doesn't appear under the iPad device on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes, you need to select the iPad device on the sidebar and then select the Photos tab on the right-hand side of iTunes e.g.
And then on the right-hand side :

IOS 5 - Photo Frame

Just wondering if anyone else is having the same issue...
Since updating to iOS 5, I can no longer use the lock screen photo frame while streaming music/slideshow to the Apple TV2.
Is it because I need to change a setting I'm unaware of?

Wish I had an answer... I may be having the same problem. A few weeks after installing iOS 5, I started noticing that the pictures I was taking were looking really pixelated and bad. Thought something was wrong with the camera. Then some photos started disappearing, replaced with either blackness or a fuzzy-looking gray photo frame. Then the ap started to freeze while scrolling. Then my albums started to shuffle the order around. Now some albums just disappear temporarily. I'm still able to sync photos to my Mac, but I just erase them from my phone, because they're useless there now.
Is this similar to what you've been experiencing?

Export iPhoto slide show to Sony DPF-D70 digital photo frame?

Can I export an iPhoto 08 slideshow to the memory of a Sony DPF-D70 7" digital photo frame? If so, how is it done?
I would forever be grateful for any assistance.

The only thing you can do is export the slideshow as a Quicktime movie. You can do this in the File -> Export dialogue. Can this device play a Quicktime movie?

Compatible Digital Photo Frame?

I'm trying to find a digital photo frame which is reliably compatible with Mac files (i.e. iPhoto), for both photos and video. I didn't think it would be such a big deal but now that I've started researching it, I'm finding all sorts of complaints about incompatibility, especially with, for example, .mov files.
The product I'm seeking is intended to be a gift for my elderly grandmother (90 years old) so it has to be simple to use (in other words, I'm not going to get her an iPod touch-- just a simple frame, on which I can pre-load photos and videos, would be ideal.)
Any ideas?
Thank you so much in advance, and forgive me if this question should be posted elsewhere.

Old Toad (love the name!)-- Thank you for the response, and the tip on converting the video files. I think I will try that out, and maybe take a card or thumb drive into Best Buy or Fry's and see if I can test it.
Can anyone confirm success with putting short videos (created on an Apple device, such as an iPhone) on a digital photo frame? I spent hours Googling yesterday and could find no actual testimonials of such...
Seems like a pretty basic thing that people would like to be able to do these days, with all the file/video sharing. I know most people just physically hand over a phone or other device and say, "here, look," but I'm sure I'm not the only one with elderly grandparents who never got much beyond using an electric typewriter, and when you can't be physically there to show them something on your own device or computer, there needs to be a simpler solution. I'm looking at frames because those seem to be the least intimidating for an elderly person, as they don't "feel" as much like space-age electronics.
If anyone has any other options other than a digital frame (I was even considering a small, portable DVD player that would play photos & vids burned to a disc, but that's getting sort of ridiculous), I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks so much.

Using a Samsung Digital Photo Frame SPF-83H as USB monitor

I have a Samsung Digital Photo Frame SPF-83H that I can use as a USB monitor in a PC but does'nt work in my Mac Mini.
Any driver or adaptator?
Thanks a lot!
Jaume

Did you ever get this working - the Samsung photo frame as a second monitor?
DisplayLink released a Mac driver on 10/17. You can get it here:

Photos from computer to empty card for digital photo frame?

I've downloaded 1,000 photos from my camera to the computer and want to empty the card and use it afresh. Is it possible to then load a selection of photos from iPhoto 6 onto an empty card so that I can play a short selection in a digital photo frame? and please how do I do it?
Thanks,
Elizabeth

If you want to clear a card simply use your camera to Reformat the card. It takes a couple of seconds to do it. For specific details on doing it on your camera see your manual, or root around in the menus
To put pics on a Card for a digital frame:
Select the pics in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export them to a Folder on the desktop. Then drag that folder of images to the Card.
Most cameras will mount their cards on the Desktop. However some brands (not mentioning Canon and Kodak in particular, just in passing) don't. The only way around this is to pop the card in a USB Card Reader, and it will turn up on the desktop.

Best Resoltion for the 7" Digital Photo Frame

Hello,
I have got a
*Digital Photo Frame II, 7"W, 720 x 480, Sensor Touch, MP3 Player-Funktion PA3637K-1ETC*
The Manual doesn't tell me about the best Resolution for the Pictures to put on.
on the Web you can Find: 800 x 480 Pixel WVGA-Screen (720 x 480 Pixel sichtbarer Bereich)
The samples are 726x 480 pixel.
Now my Problem:
When you put Pictures on it - *It cropps a bit on the right and left side and much more on the top and bottom.*
I have tried a lot of sizes. Even on 720 x 480 it cropps.
So my question is : What is the best Resolution for the PICs ?
Best Regards
Markus

Sorry,
check your calculator: 800:533 is NOT 1.562... Mine Says : 800:533 = 1.5009380863039399624765478424015
That is less wrong than it cut's off.
Try it: take a white pic with 800x533 and draw a black frame of 10 pixels on the border. you won't see it on all sides !
That makes 20 pixels (10 on each side) of 533 cut off ... that is more than 0.0009380863039399624765478424015 error.

Wireless photo frame connection to a private ovi a...

Hi!
I'd like to get a wireless photo frame for home (currently considering Samsung SPF-105V), and give some to close relatives as well. I'd like to configure them so that I can upload a picture from my phone to a private family album in Share on Ovi, after which that picture should appear on all the wireless frames tracking my photo album.
Now the issues / problems:
1) I found http://share.ovi.com/feeds/ and was able to connect to RSS feeds on my public albums, private of course not. There's currently a mechanism to send an email link to a private album to a non-registered user, but I'm not aware of a way to construct an RSS or atom feed address in a same way?? I wouldn't need any tight security for this purpose, just keep the photos out of publically searchable indices would be fine. So, a similar solution as the mail-in "!passwd" postfix in the address and no appearance in the Share on Ovi public feeds or searches would be enough.
2) As alternative solutions, the Samsung frame seems to have special support for Microsoft Live Spaces. I'm not currently using that so no big interest to do so for this purpose. Frame channel (http://www.framechannel.com/) has mail-in support for adding pictures to the feed, but it seems that the incoming pictures must be separately approved by channel owner, which seems like unnecessary extra effort in this case.
Any creative solutions around?
Thanks!

After learning a bit more basics over the weekend, I can continue a bit on my earlier post (the problem is not solved yet, though):
1) Framechannel seems to offer light protection on their RSS-feeds: The feed address contains a username and a PIN-code. This kind of security would be enough for me: Use the mail-in password of a privat album as a password in the RSS-feed of a private album. As this doesn't give very good security, it should be selectable in the album parameters, whether an RSS-feed is created in the first place. Or maybe this is already possible, but I just don't know it?
2) Framechannel can sign into some accounts (e.g. Flickr, Facebook, the usual suspects) and pull out also non-public material. Having Share on Ovi support in framechannel would also solve my problem.
So, as a next step I'll probably try to address Share on Ovi support on 1) and Framechannel support on 2).
Still, if you know a good solution, which is already available, I'd be glad to know. :-)

Widescreen display on photo frame

How can you format or resize the photos as wide screen format so they will display in wide screen mode on Sony photo frame players?
Thanks

A photo is the shape it is. You will need to either make a crop so that only the part of the image you want shows, or create extra canvas so that the photo is letterboxed on the frame. You can't make a normal aspect image into a widescreen image without distortion unless you do one of those things.
