Photo's get cropped when I try to make an album - help

Hi
I'm trying to make an album in iphoto '08 but my photo's keep being cropped because they aren't the right size for the templates. (I'd saved a lot of my landscapes 16:9 so the right and left edges are cropped out.)
can anyone tell me what the template sizes are, i can't work it out.
thanks very much

Right-click on a photo inside its frame in the book and see if there's a command "Fit photo to frame" or similar. That will allow you to keep the proportions of your photos.
I don't have experience with iPhoto '08, but in v6 most of the frames are 4:3
Here's the explanation from the iPhoto 6 Help:
*Aligning photos evenly on book pages*
iPhoto books are designed to display photos that have a 4 x 3 size ratio, the most common ratio for consumer digital cameras. Photos may not line up evenly on pages where they appear side by side if your camera does not capture images at this ratio or if you cropped a photo in your library without constraining your selection to 4 x 3.
To ensure photos are properly aligned, crop them to a size ratio of 4 x 3. (See Related Topics below.)
You can also try to align a photo in a book by changing its size to fit the book frame. Press the Control key while clicking the photo, and then choose "Fit Photo to Frame Size" from the shortcut menu.
If you don't like the way photos are arranged on a page, you can also choose a different book theme or page design.
You may want to confirm that this has not changed in v7 by checking the Help file.
Regards.

  • I updated to Version 4.0 and the disk won't go away. It's like I have to reinstall the application every time I open it now. Plus, it seems to get stuck when I try to open it. HELP!

    I downloaded and upgraded to Version 4 today. However, after installing the new version, I can't eject the Firefox disk, even using the Disk Utility. The Firefox disk keeps reopening. I rebooted too.
    NEVER MIND! I DID SOME MORE TWEAKING AND GOT IT FIXED MYSELF!

    Did you try to click the key icon on the location bar another time?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • I cant seem to open some photos on Iphoto. I downloaded like 3 months ago from my phone into the iphoto. I could access ALL of my photos back then but when I try and access them now I cant seem to open the file

    I cant seem to open some photos on Iphoto. I downloaded like 3 months ago from my phone into the iphoto. I could access ALL of my photos back then but when I try and access them now I cant seem to open the file. When i open iphoto and open the folder thats on it, i can see ALL the photos that are there but when I click on different ones some appear in the larger screen but A LOT of them dont appear. Iphoto seems to have erased the file or I dont know.
    Also I tried clicking on the photo that doesnt appear and making it "Reveal it on finder" - "original file" and it says 'The operation can’t be completed because the item can’t be found.".
    I really want those photos because they involve a really special family vacation, please help me find those photos

    A LOT of them dont appear.
    What do you see in the window when you click on those?  A blank, black window?  An exclamation mark?  What?

  • I get a runtime error when I try to open itunes, any help?

    I get a runtime error when I try to open itunes, any help?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • I'm getting this "error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _niFgen_SendSoftwareTrigger@4" when I try to make any CNiFgen object.

    Hi, I have a working project that has a few classes using the NI5411 APIs and now I want to use CNiFgen classes. After adding Core Components(Advanced Analysis, Common) and NI Device Instrument Drivers(NiFgen) from the Measurement Studio Components Wizard. Even when I try to make an object of CNiFgen(CNiFgen cnf I get the following error:
    --------------------Configuration: puzzle - Win32 Debug--------------------
    Linking...
    NiFgenInterfaceD.lib(NiFgenImpl.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _niFgen_SendSoftwareTrigger@4
    Output/puzzle.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
    Error executing link.exe.
    puzzle.exe
    - 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)
    My APIs version is working fine and so are these CNiFgen classes(I have tried then for a dummy project). But, things start getting nasty when I try to integrate them.
    Regards,
    Vaibhav.

    It looks like you have a typical linking error in VC++. Have you made sure that all of the necessary .lib files are properly linked to?
    Also, are you passing any data between your custom classes and the niFGEN classes? These will take different data types unless you have already type cast all of them to work properly together. If they don't share variables, you should be okay.

    If you purchased the Perpetual Licensed version of Lightroom and received a 24 numeric serial number you will have to download the correct version from the link below.
    Before doing the new installation you will have to uninstall the existing version from your computer (it is the Creative Cloud version) since it is requesting you to "renew your membership" . This process will not interfere with your Catalog file, Preferences or your personal files, it will just remove the existing application. Both versions are the same application just a different download and activation process.
    Reboot your system then run the install of the Perpetual License download and input the serial number to activate. Things should be fine.

    I just installed iOS5 on my Ipod Touch and there is  a gray bubble when I try to choose an album or song, how do I get by this to make my choice or how do I use the bubble?

    Thanks, Stedman, that is helpful (I seem to be able to get past the "bubble" somewhat) but it is still there....I have, in the past, stroked across the music of choice and that was it...now the "bubble" with the choice name comes up and if I go all the way across I get a delete choice?  Can you help with this also or where would I go to research changes (I see there are 200!!!) in this upgrade?

  • I'm being asked the answers to security questions when I try to download an album but I've never gave the info originally. How do I get past it ?

    I'm being asked the answers to security questions when I try to download an album but I've never gave the info originally. How do I get past it ?

    If you log into your account are you able to set them ? Go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side are you able to select the questions/answers ? If not then is there a reset link beneath the 2 questions ? (The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address on your account.)
    If not then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

    Robert,
    It seems to be enough to create empty folders at “/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk” and “/System/Library/Java/Support/Deploy.bundle”, to make Illustrator use Jave SE 8 as it should.
    This way to get round the legacy JAVA requirement was presented by Kals in post #7 in this thread:
