Photos from iPhoto are fuzzy after publishing in iWeb

Hi,
I am using iphoto and made a photo page to use in iweb. In iweb all the photo thumbnails look fine. When I published them to my .mac site all the thumbnails still look fine. However, when I click on the photo to see the larger version, in 40% of the cases the photos look fuzzy.
These fuzzy photos are not fuzzy in iphoto and I do not see any difference between these photos and others that show up fine in iweb.
I also tried creating a photo page with just a few of the photos that show up fuzzy on the original photo page I made and they are still fuzzy, suggesting to me that there is something wrong with the original photo file. However, as I said these photos look great in iphoto. Any ideas?
Thanks,
William

Hello William...
I think the problem may be in the way iWeb resizes your photos for the slideshow/larger version. For the photo template, all of your photos are resized to 800x600 by iWeb....the problem is that you don't get any control over the amount of jpeg compression used or method of rescaling. Not all photos will look great at the same jpeg compression level and with the same rescaling method.
If you have some other graphics program that has these options, it really pays to take control of the jpeg compression aspect at the very least. I use a program called "Downsize" and also I use "Photoshop" sometimes. There are lots of other programs you can use, I'm sure. But basically, it will probably improve your images if you size them down to 800x600 yourself with one of these programs and then import them into iWeb.

Why am I having trouble uploading photos from iPhoto on mac after update

Why am I having trouble uploading photos from iPhoto on mac after update

Good day!
What does this have to do with Photoshop?
Wouldn’t the question better be asked on a Macintosh Forum?

Photos from Iphoto are turning pink

Hi Everyone. My son is trying to make a montage in IMovie HD 6 (we just got it). He's using still photos from iPhoto. The problem is perfect pictures are turning pinkish/red when he puts them in his template. I can't figure out what's going wrong. We're VERY frustrated.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

There's a bug in iMovie 6 that applies a red tint when importing BMP images — those with the .bmp extension. It occurs only when importing with the Ken Burns checkbox turned ON.
Save the BMP image as a JPEG before importing to iMovie and all should be fine.
iPhoto lets you Export the photo to another copy that uses the JPEG format.

Why when I print photos from iphoto are they grainy ? They did not used to be.

When I print from Iphoto they are grainy, they did not previously. In other programs they are fine, so it is not the printer,

What version of iPhoto? What are the pixel dimensions of the photos? what is the size of the print?

Some photos from iPhoto are not appearing in iMovie

I have successfully imported over 2,000 pictures from iPhoto into iMovie. However, my latest attempt did not work- these photos were from a CD scanned by somebody else. The photos are in iPhoto, but when I pull up the folder in iMovie, it is blank.
Any idea why??? Thanks.

You should be able to tell in iPhoto. If not, right click on the photo in iPhoto and select "Reveal in Finder". You should see the file. Right click on it and select "Get Info"

Photos from iPhoto are only partially displayed

Trying to create a slideshow of photos from an Album in iPhoto '08. No need for other layout elements, just want the photos. When I drag a photo from the iPhoto Album into Keynote, it appears as a new slide (using light table view) as expected. But only part of the photo appears. If I go into the individual slide I can select the photo and use the corner handles to resize it to be smaller than the slide. But there are 236 photos I need to put into this show! How can I get Keynote to put each whole photo on the slide? I don't care if they aren't the same shape as the slide and there is empty space left, I just want the whole photo! I tried going into Preferences and checking "Reduced placed images to fit on slides" but that doesn't make any difference. It IS checked and the photos still don't fit. All photos are JPG's.

I am in the process of trying to send some "photos" from iPhoto to a self publishing company and they want it sent CMYK as opposed to RGB. The "photos" were printed beautifully for 2 books I created at an earlier date. I want to send in the right format

How do you convert iPhotos to CMYK? I want to send "artwork" which are essentially photos to a self publishing company for a children's book and don't know how to do this. The iBooks I created are beautiful and vibrant. Why can't I just send the photos? They want all artwork tiff and CMYK with at least 300dots on resolution?

Photoshop is a very expensive application. GraphicConverter can convert RGB files to CMTK and can set the PPI to what you need:
GraphicConverter is the only 3rd party image editor other than the full Photoshop to be able to convert to CMYK. You can get it here: Mac photo editing, Mac photo software, Mac photo-editing - GraphicConverter

Why are some but not all of my photos from iphoto are importing into imovie?

they are from the same camera, taken on the same day and as far as i can tell the same format.
the ones that won't import to imovie play fine on iphoto, i tried exporting them to desktop but won't play as the file is "unsuported".
help this is so frustrating!

Hi, and thanks for the response.
Ok guess my basic problem is that I don't properly understand the concept of where and how photos are copied to.
Say I take one photo with my iPhone 5...
- Where will this photo be stored, and where will it be copied on my phone and on my iPad, if I have the Photo Stream and the Shared Photo Stream options turned on on both devices?
- which photo can I erase on my phone, but meanwhile still keep a copy on my iPad anyway?

All my photos from iPhoto are in iCloud now? and the app is gone???

for some strange reason my iphoto ap disappeared from the dock--it is gone from my mac as i have tried to find it. i have no place to put phots from my camera -- i don't feel i should have to buy a new version--i had one and don't want another one--or where else can i store my photos?

I was able to go into finder, click on picture hold down the option key and right click on into master folder n some of my photos were there (older photos) but I cant seem to find any of my other pictures!

My photos from iphoto are gone! they were there last night but now they are missing and im so worried! I had 5000 :(

Hello! I just logged on and plugged my ipad to get the update and it pulled iphoto up like normally, and it said i needed to choose like a place where i wanted my pictures to be stored and then i just did like in my pictures albulm or spot and then i got finally to my normal iphoto and ALL my pics were gone. I had a lot too like 5,000. So, i dont know what to do! And last night i was trying to turn my laptop off, and it kept saying you need to cloe iphoto cause its still in progress, but i had never touched or did anything really with it so i had to force quit iphoto. And then it finally turned out but im not sure what i did.
thanks! All help will be greatly appreciated

He's asking you if when you launch iPhoto with the option key held down you have the option of opening more than one library. If not then you current library may be damaged and you can try to fix it by applying the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

I delete photos from iPhoto but after backing up my computer they are back! How do I stop that?

I delete photos from iPhoto but when I back up my computer the library rebuilds them!

After I do a backup it rebuilds the iPhoto.
How do you back up and what is the "it" that rebuilds iphoto? Do you mean this process of arching/deleting? It may have damaged your Library.
Option 1
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. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
Regards
Going forward: another way of archiving:
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
Now you have two full versions of the Library.
3. On the Internal library, trash the Events you don't want there
Now you have a full copy of the Library on the External and a smaller subset on the Internal
Some Notes:
As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
You can choose which Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
You can keep the Library on the external updated with new imports using iPhoto Library Manager

I can't upload my photos from iPhoto to facebook. The "publish" button is grayed out.

I can't upload my photos from iPhoto to facebook. The "publish" button is grayed out. I was able to do it in the past. Help! Thank you.

I try to order the album of my wedding and can't upload it on the final step after having complete everything.
Is it too big ? what can be the issue ?
What happens when you try to upload the album? Are there any error messages?
Which iPhoto version are you using?
Are you ordering from the correct Print Products Store for your country? Check the settings in iPhoto > Preferences > Advanced:

I am no longer able to upload photos from iphoto to Facebook. The "publish" button is now "grayed out." Any suggestions?

The window doesn't automatically pop up now. When you plug the card reader in, you should see a 4th option on the lower bar of the photos app. I think it says camera. Tap on that then you can see and inport your photos.
If you are still having issues, try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. It won't hurt any data but can clear gliches.
