Photo sharpness in distant photos ... ( just across a room)

When taking photos at a distance...even across a room... What kind of sharpness are you getting ? When zooming in close or viewing as actual pixels to edit?
I always use a tripod, and af on. Low ISO ... With either a lot of natural or studio lighting

Plus a sample of exactly what you are seeing.
EOS 1Ds Mk III, EOS 1D Mk IV EF 50mm f1.2 L, EF 24-70mm f2.8 L,

How do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto? Photoes came across, video said incompatible.

how do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto? Photoes came across, video said incompatible.
i have moved from a mac pro to a mac mini,
Mini now has mavericks and latest iLife stuff, I clicked import, was all good, then at end, no videos came across.
Is Mavericks,/iPhoto having a compatibiltiy issue with some video formats....???
Your help is appreciated gang.: )

Please describe exactly what you did. In moving to a new machine no importing is involved. The best way is to simply connect the two computers together and drag the iPhoto library from the old one to the pictures folder go the new one and launch iPhoto

I have iPhoto 08 and have been happy with it. Don't want to upgrade. But suddenly, when I click on an event, instead of all the photos, I just get one- enlarged- and cannot move to the next one. The photo just jumps up or down. How to solve?

I have posted "submit" twice and keep getting requests to submit again. Now being asked to write a summary! Here we go. I have iPhoto 08 and am happy with it. Don't want to upgrade. But suddenly when I click on an event, instead of getting all the photos, I just get a large version of one photo and cannot move on to the others. The right arrow will not move it and the photo just jumps around.

Note the slider bottom right of the iPhoto Window. Drag it left.

Some of my photos just show as grey JPG boxes

I updated my iPhone 5 from iOS 7.0.4 to 7.1.2 before Apple stops signing 7.1.2 because I don't want to update to iOS 8 yet. After updating and restoring from my backup, I discovered this problem. Some of my photos just show as grey JPG boxes. The pics seem to be corrupted. I can't even open them after exporting it to my macbook using Image Capture. To make things worse, I never transfer my pics to iPhoto or even iCloud which is really an embarrassing mistake. I reinstalled 7.1.2 and restored from my backup but still have the problem. Another weird thing is that I backup my iPhone in my iTunes at least once a week, but the most recent backup that I have now aside from what I made just before updating was from September 11, 2013, which is a year ago. I also tried using different backup explorer tools to try to retrieve my pics but my most recent backup doesn't have the folders that these programs are looking for, unlike my older backups. I guess my backups are really messed up. I don't know what to do now. I lost very, very important and memorable pictures. I am so devastated. Please help me

When i go into finder click on pictures why dose it not show all photos just lets me open iphoto

Ralph9430 offers a good suggestion. But you may need to do this before taking his advice:
Check in iPhoto's Preferences (which you can open from the iPhoto menu). Look in General, and make sure "Connecting Camera Opens" is set to "Image Capture").
If it is set to "iPhoto", you won't be able to get to Image Capture easily.

Ive had this and solved it an entirely different way very quickly.
Connect the ipad to the imac (i assume its an imac);
Fire up itunes;
while thats happening create a new folder called EMPTY in your Pictures folder on the imac;
go back to itunes;
select the ipad;
go to photos on the ipad;
select SYNC FROM SELECTED FOLDER;
select your EMPTY folder;
then hit SYNC and the photos / videos in photo albums / the albums will all instantly disappear.
We had 7.98 Gb of syncd fotos and videos on the ipad and tried all the more lengthy [and unsuccessful] ways suggested elsewhere.
There was so little space we couldnt u/d the IOS !
OK, so we werent bothered about keeping the fotos that were on the ipad (they'd all been filed in iphot on the imac so not 'lost').
Nice to find a solution for yourself when you're a silver surfer in your mid '60's

Long monitor cables... what do I need to use to connect across a room?

Hi,
I have an odd situation where I need to connect a PPC G5 to a couple of flat screen Dell monitors about 15 feet away, and then a Dell computer to two other Dell monitors that are also several feet away.
So two computers, each CPU connected to two monitors across the room from each other. The two CPUs don't interact at all... this is just for the monitors.
Are there cables this long? And do they make them for the Mac? And what would be the term for that... AVI? I usually just use the cables that come with the monitors and that's it, so I don't know the names for the connections at all.

Sorry,
The Dell monitors are 1908FP and P170S.
My G5 has one of each kind of connector plus one adaptor.
So, Do I look for a 10'+ cable with DVI to DVI? Or DVI to VGA? That's what I need to know and can't quite figure out.

My iMac's DVD drive launches discs across the room when I eject them.

Hi.
I was wondering if anyone else has ever had this problem, and also, if anyone might have a solution for it.
As of recently, [I don't know the exact date that the problem began, but it's been awhile], whenever I eject a DVD from my iMac's DVD drive [by either ejecting it in Finder, or by pressing the keyboard's Eject button], instead of just coming out halfway like it used to, the drive now launches the DVD across the room.
I'm starting to get annoyed by this problem, especially when I burn something and am not around to catch the disc when it comes flying out, and later find it lying on the floor in the corner of my room.
So does anybody know if there is anything that I can do about this?.
I did that online-chat thing on Apple's website, and the guy told me that I have to bring it in to a service centre, and then disconnected.
I'd like to avoid doing that if possible.
Also, I don't even know of any [or if there even ARE any] that are in Montreal, Quebec, [which is where I live].
Oh, and I bought an AppleCare Protection Plan with the iMac when I bought it last January [2005].
Soooo... Does that do anything for me?.
Thanks so much!.
-Steven.

Hi Steven,
I had the same thing happening with mine. When I was on with Apple Care, they asked me if I would be willing to send them my computer in exchange for a new one (refurbished). It turned out they new about the problem & are trying to figure it out with computers that are actually experiencing the issue. This was just a couple of weeks ago, so you might call & check about it. They cover all shipping costs.
Good luck

My computer has been spontaneously restarting itself. This last time I wasn't even at the keyboard, I was across the room. I don't know what to make of it, completely baffled.

My computer has been spontaneously restarting itself. This last time I wasn't even at the keyboard, I was across the room. I don't know what to make of it, completely baffled. I'd love some help on this, and if it could come in layman's terms I'd love it even more.

Hi ...
Try Troubleshooting the MagSafe adapter
If the Mac freezes, it may be a preference setting.
Check System Preferences > Energy Saver
See if Restart automatically if the computer freezes is selected. If it is, deselect that box.

Has anyone noticed how easy it is to read a passcode that lights up with each key you press from across a room? Is there a way to stop keypad from lighting up on iPhone 4S, iOS 7?

DVD ejects across the room!

My imac 20inch g5 ejects DVDs and CDs across the room. It seems ok if you only use 1 but when its warm it sends them flying out. Is there an adjustment or something to stop this?

Steve, Welcome to the discussion area!
This area is for discussing iMac G4s.
Since you have an iMac G5, you will probably want to visit the iMac > iMac G5 > Using DVDs and CDs with your iMac G5 discussion area.
You might be interested in the threads disks shooting out super fast and SuperDrive Spits dvd's off the desk.

4s picture issues - no photo just white screen

Recently (perhaps since the iOS 7 update), when my husband takes pictures with his 4s, he can't actually get the pictures. Often the thumbnail of the picture he took will show in the camera roll, but when he clicks on it to look at it, there is just a blank white screen instead of the picture. This is an intermittent problem, but frequently enough that it is frustrating and certianly not how the camera should work - he took 10-12 pictures today and 6 of them don't show correctly.
Anyone else encouter this? Any fixes to the problem? I did a quick search and didn't come across anything.
Thanks!

I do not understand why Apple is not addressing this issue. I just deleted 20 photos that were really difficult to capture. Had I known about your method of editing to save them, it would have made my day. This is obviously a big problem which needs resolving. Thank you for sharing your insight. I tried it on another photo I took randomly and it worked. I'm not very impressed with the lack of service from Apple, lately.

My photos just became empty boxes, if I click on them they open, but I can't see them at a glance. Anyone know why? thanks

My photos on iphotos just became empty boxes, bordered by white intermittent lines. If I click on a photo it comes up, but I can't see what each photo is at a glance. Any ideas how to resolve this? thanks

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the options to rebuild the thumbnails.
Regards
TD
