Picture too big

Randomly throughout my Aperture library I have picture that are showing only a portion of the full image. I can't make them any smalled to get the whole picture to display.
I see a similar problem back in 2009, but repairing the permissions and the database doesn't seem to work. It was also suggested at that time to remove the preferences file (com.apple.Aperture.plist) but I can't find this at all.
This has happened since I instaled Mavericks.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

. It was also suggested at that time to remove the preferences file (com.apple.Aperture.plist) but I can't find this at all.
To open locate the preferences open your Home Folder in the Finder, and with the Home folder selected in the Finder press the key combination ⌘J to open the View options. In the panel that will appear, enable "Show Library". That will make your hidden user library permanently visible.
Quit Aperture.
Now open the folder "Preferences" and remove the file com.apple.Aperture.plist to the Desktop.
Log off and again and try to launch Aperture.

  • ITV Catchup TV picture too big

    We have two laptops – the first one is an HP and works OK in Firefox for all TV Channels
    The second one – an Advent Verona produces the following problem
    ITV and Catchup TV viewed in Firefox - the picture is about 4 times too big
    BBCi, 4OD and Demand 5 all OK in Firefox with this Advent
    ITV and Catchup TV - viewed in Opera - picture OK – size and speed OK
    So it seems to be the result of the – Advent laptop - plus Firefox - plus ITV and Catchup TV

    I will check out Photoshop Elements 6.0, but I have solved my problem. If, after Sharing a iPhoto 16:9 slideshow with iDVD, opening a new iDVD 16:9 file, creating a slide show, and under media/movies, drag the .mov file to the left, and be sure to select, "scale slide to safe TV area," the resulting disc will play on our 16:9 and show the entire contents of each image. The picture does not fill the TV screen, small black bars all around the picture, but at least all of the image shows. I can live with the black bars. One thing, maybe THE thing, I was doing wrong was I was making a movie in iDVD and not a slide show.
    Do you see much difference in the output of FotoMagico2 (FM) during playback on a TV as compared to iDVD? If so, how do you create your .dv files; 16:9 Widescreen, 720p, or 1080p? At the moment, FM cannot work from .mov files, and will not captures iPhoto image captions. This means you have to create a title for each image in FM. Also, unless there is a global way of doing it, you have to zoom each image down inside the dotted line box if you want the entire image to show on your TV. The image does fill the screen, however. I am still comparing.
    Thank you for all your help and support.

  • Pictures too big in iphoto!!! ughhh

    Ok...so i am a frequent user of myspace...and i like to to put my pictures in there. but ever since i got my mac...(i am also a new user)...i can't put my pics in because they are "too big" all of a sudden. i'm still using the same camera that i used with my old computer(which always let me post pics)...and now i can't. i tried downloading a photo resizer but apparently almost everything i want to download isn't compatible with mac. i've heard so many good things about macs, but ever since i got mine i've just been frustrated. please help.

    lynns456,
    if you select an image in iPhoto and choose File/Export you should get a requestor that lets you scale your photo down to any size.

  • Screen saver pictures too big

    I have read the other posts related to this subject and tried to uncheck and check the energy saver box and it makes no difference. My iPhoto screen saver pictures are zoomed right in. can anyone help ?

    Install the 10.6.7 update, comes to mind. Additionally, move any screensaver files in your /Library/Preferences/ and ByHost subfolder to the Desktop, restart, reset the screensaver settings, and see if that fixes the issue. I, for one never use anything but the installed ones, but my mate uses family photos and my experience is that they're resized to fit.

  • Size of photos on my website i'm making on iweb - pictures too big ?

    Hello
    I've had a look on some other posts but i'm not sure. I am a bit clueless sorry. I hope you can help.
    I am using iWeb to build my website, and I will be putting photos on my website, do I have to resize them? Or adjust them in some way?
    Is there a maximum amount of photos i should put on each page?
    my pictures range from about
    average 200 - 400KB each and a few of 590KB each. I think they are all jpeg
    I want my site to be quick, I want to show my pics but don't want people to leave the site if its slow to load.
    I will be using FTP to host it, not sure who the host is yet. Will that affect anything as i'm not using .mac ?
    Thanks for reading my post

    No need to resize your pictures as iWeb will create thumbnails or resize accordingly for you, around 10-50 KB. Even the pictures in the slideshow will be resized automatically to around 100-150KB.
    If you do not use .Mac as your hosting company you will need to use a two step process when publishing, first you publish to a folder then you need to FTP the files to your hosting company. With .Mac it's a one step process and only the changes get sent up where as publishing to a folder means re-publishing your entire site each time, very time consuming. One other nice feature with .Mac I found is the slideshows come out really cool with a nice black background and the pictures automatically change every few seconds. Also you have a film strip at the top to select an individual picture. With a 3rd party hosting company the user has to manually flip each picture, not much of a slideshow.
    Hope that helps

  • Help! pictures too big for layer

    When I add a photo to a new layer in elements 9, only a tiny bit of a corner shows up, and it fills the entire space!  What do I need to do to have the whole photo appear in the layer?

    Unfortunately, I do have a very good idea of my awesomeness!
    Glad to help.

  • I am making a book in iPhoto using a double page spread and blank layout. I can't find a way to minimize the picture. it is too big in all the themes. I seems like there must be a way to shrink it not just zoom to make it fit?

    Command (right) - click on the photo and select Fit to Frame in the contextual menu:
    Not all frames in a theme offer that feature but most do.  The spread layout doesn't.

  • Imported pictures are HUGE.  Way too big.  How do I reduce JPEG size?

    JPEG size imports WAY TOO BIG.  How do I reduce JPEG size?  Thanks so much@!!

    Set your camera to take lower quality pictures is the obvious answer here. You can reduce the size of image already in iPhoto when exporting them.

  • Sending iphone Pictures in texts which are too big for some Smartphones

    When sending pictures in texts there used to be an option of 3 different size formats. Small/Medium/Large.  There is only one available now which is too big on some smartphones.
    The HTC Wildfire has a restriction of 300kb and a text with picture I tried to send, could not be sent directly to the phone, instead it went to a web address to view. I also tried to share contact details with picture and the file was also too big.   I also tried the first picture to another old Nokia without problem.
    Can anyone tell me if this is a problem with the latest Apple Software? Will they be fixing it so that we can select the picture size again to allow for picture size restrictions so we can send smaller photos to actually share our pictures.
    Anyone know?
    Has anyone had the same problem?
    Any answers welcome. Many thanks in advance. I hope they sort it quickly.

    Thanks again Chris,
    I've just tried to see if I could get any more info from the 3gs User Guide and also found some MMS Info on page 325.
    It also has some info on adding Photos on page 333
    If MMS isn't supported by your carrier, camera image doesn't appear and you can't send photos or videos ...  This doesn't count in my case as 02 support this.
    Send a Photo or Video: Tap Camera Image. Then tap 'take Photo or Video', or tap 'Choose Existing' and then select an item from a photo album and tap choose.
    The size limit of attachments is determined by your carrier.  If necessary, iphone may compress the photo or video.
    Well this clearly doesn't work for the HTC but I'm still more inclined to think that perhaps the Apple updates have removed the size reduction options.  The carrier (02) is able to take the MMS from me but the family member with the HTC who is using the 02 network through Tesco needs investigating why there is a limit to kb's.
    I shall look into this and see what I can find out.  Perhaps it's a combination of the Apple Software and the Carrier people are using which is causing the Picture problems.

  • My CS3/PS has started to change the cursor into a line of three VERY small icons when dragged over a picture or menu. Thus it is VERY difficult for instance to drag a layer in the layer list to the wastebasket - the cursor simply is too big for the waiste

    My CS3/PS has started to change the cursor into a line of three VERY small icons when dragged over a picture or menu. Thus it is VERY difficult for instance to drag a layer in the layer list to the wastebasket - the cursor simply is too big for the waistebasket icon. Even all other exact work is impossible.  Of course I have checked all the cursor presets but nothing seems to help. My OS is Windows7.

    Have you tried resetting Preferences?
    A logical next step would be to reset your Preferences.
    To reset Preferences:
    If Photoshop is already open on your screen, close it (Quit). Then hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and start Photoshop.
    A dialog box will pop up asking if you want to delete the existing Preferences file (the "Settings"). Click Yes in the dialog box. The existing Preferences file will be scrapped and a new one will be created.

  • Apple TV Picture now too big for the 16/9 screen, wrong resolution ?

    Now that I've added a new Samsung Home Theatre system to my new Samsung 46" HDTV, the Apple
    TV picture is displaying way too big, cutting off about 1/2 the picture!?! The resolution seems to be set wrong ( 720 ?). The other inputs DVD and DirectTV display OK. I have the TV set for 16x9. It was working fine before I plugged the AppleTV into the new Home Theatre System. I then tried replugging the AppleTV directly into the TV's other HDMI port but the problem still remains.I can't find any way of readjusting the resolution. Any suggestions ?

    Problem solved. It's a faulty HDMI port on my TV.
    I have been plagued by intermittent random problems with my old Apple TV, especially where there was a blank screen but audio could be heard - solved by a restart. Then today I got the new Apple TV and it displayed as though there was overscan (actually - way more than overscan should cause now that I can see what it SHOULD look like). The final piece of the puzzle was trying to play content purchased previously on iTunes - no HDCP. Finally something pointing to the HDMI connection. I did a bit of troubleshooting - swapping cables, swapping HDMI ports and problem solved. Of the 3 HDMI ports on my TV - when the Apple TV is plugged into port 2 I get this massive overscan and HDCP doesn't work. In ports 1 and 3 it works perfectly. Thankfully the problem with the new Apple TV was consistent enough for me to easily diagnose the problem - unlikely the random nature of the issues I was having with the old Apple TV. Time for a new TV - hurrah! (it's under warranty...)

  • Iphone 4s update stopped, then the backup was too big!

    I was installing the latest update on my fiances iphone 4s. Then it stopped and I got some text saying the update wouldn't go. The phone was then locked with and I was prompted to connect it to itunes. Also hade a message about the simcard not being correct, that disappeared though. Then I had to do a backup and reset the phone. "Ok", fine I'll use the backup I just made - but no! Now the back up was too big! Bit above 14 Gb which I after som googling understand is more than "the basic" package? Anyway, I didn't have any recent backups so now I got the evil eye from my fiance as I write… is this solveable? What happened? Did the update get mixed into the backup thus making it a bigger file? The phone was almost full when I started the update…  I do have a backup from september which is abot 12 Gb. Can I use this somehow?

    Well, the update was aborted. Can't remember the exact error message and I can't produce it again obviously. But what happened next was that I was prompted to connect it to itunes and restore it, there was this symbol on the screen with a wire going to itunes.
    Now it's just telling me there isn't enough space to backup from the one I want. I know what folder it is in, the application, mobile sync, backup. That folder is more than 14 Gb.
    I cannot be more specific I'm afraid… But I mean, the info is there, in that folder bigger than 14 Gb. I can access the pictures, look at every one of them… Frustrating…
    Haha! That's a good link!
    cheers!

  • 720p display resolution is too big for tv

    I recently got the kanex hdmi adapter to hook my mbp to my tv. The quality is superb and sound is good as well. However, the picture is slightly too big for my size of television. I had to select the 720p option so that my tv could recognize my computer and therefore, I cannot select any other option if I want my tv to recognize my computer via hdmi. Is there any possible way to still be able to hook my computer with my kanex adapter and still be able to fit the full picture on my tv screen?

    Not sure if you fixed this problem but my Sanyo has a Pixel shape button that I accidentally pressed somehow. Somewhere in your T.V. remote or menu should have the same type of button or menu option to change the way your pixels are layed out.
    This option will give you a 4x3 option, a 16:9 option and a few 16:9 zoomed variants.
    It's probably not in your OS X settings. You have accidentally switched your pixel shapes.

  • Can a library be too big to share?

    I just upgraded to Windows 7 (32 bit) and had to reinstall iTunes (don't know if that is the real issue). My home networked sharing library shows up up however when I select the library to share iTunes thinks for a bit then goes back to the apple icon (like it times out or something). I used to be able to share a library from one computer to another on my home network. I have gone to the computer that has my entire library on it and again I can see my laptop library (which is empty) and seam to be able to access it. Can a library be too big to share?

    Hi
    Not really understanding - but anyway
    .swf - have no idea what that is
    .mov - Is NO Video-Codec - but a Container (sort of folder) and can hold Video-Codecs that iMovie can use or not.
    Open the .mov - with QuickTime-player (as it can open so many more)
    open Inspector [cmd+I] and read
    Video Format (Codec) : nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
    Frames per second : YY.yy
    WHAT does they read ?
    iMovie has one very bad thing going - It tries to open Video-Codecs that it really can not use - so all kind of strange behaviors can occur. No Sound / Only Sound no picture etc.
    So knowing the true Video-Codec IS VERY IMPORTANT.
    Yours Bengt W
