Pictures are tinted red when playing on TV

Has anyone experienced and/or solved this issue? When playing pictures from the library (not streaming) they are all tinted with a reddish hue. This happened after a few hours of normal operation. I restarted the machine and it did nothing to help the problem. i checked all the cables, the component cables are set correctly.i checked the TV colour menu, and everything is set correctly. i set the machine back to factory standards and after syncing the library again, i still get that red tint.
i bought this as a gift to a family member, but it's been more of a hassle than a gift...
anyone has any ideas?

Sounds odd.
Do movie/video trailers look red too? If so I'd suspect a loose connection in the leads or a failure of the TV component input or AppleTV component output - can you try a DVD player or something with component output to see if it narrows it down to AppleTV?
I assume the photos look ok on the synced computer - it is possible that the synced computer has a badly uncalibrated monitor and that the user has made the photos look good on the monitor which then causes them too look bad on a decent display. long shot that though. Is the famly member syncing from PC or Mac?
Any chance the images are in some peculiar colour space which AppleTV isn't handling?
Can you burn some images to a CD/DVD and display them via a DVD player - if so and they look odd it's likely to be the images.
Any example images you can post?

I recently got an iphone 5S and my songs not purchased from iTunes are grayed out (phone only) and are skipped past when playing them through my iPhone.

I recently got an iphone 5S and my songs not purchased from iTunes are grayed out (phone only) and are skipped past when playing them through my iPhone. i have tried the following:
1) Removing all music from phone and resynced to iTunes PC library.
2) Erased phone and restored from back up
3) Erased phone and started as a new iPhone
4) Reformated the music files in my library that weren't playing
5) Deleted songs from iPhone and computer and re-imported CDs
6) Tried to redownload my COMPLETE MUSIC LIBRARY from iCloud.
7) I have also turned it off and turned it back on several times
8) I tried syncing through my macbook (only moved partial songs to it to see if it would even work).
9) I have tried to get Siri to play them, did not work.
10) All music does play fine on my iPod Touch 3rd (iOS6 i think) gen and iTunes on Mac and PC
11) I added a CD to my roommates iTunes and it plays on their iPhone 5S but not mine.
After all of these things it is now WORSE!!! My iTunes purchased songs are now experiencing the same issue along with some (not all) of the original music files that were skipping and grayed out. My conclusion is i have no clue at this point! I have done everything i have found online in EVERY discussion, i have spent over 60 hours trying to get this to work and i am asking myself, i bought this product why am having to fix this when it worked just fine on my iPod touch (3rd Gen) and iPod Classic!!!! PLEASE APPLE FIX THIS ISSUE FOR US!!!!

I had this problem too after i upgdatd to OS X Mavericks... only the songs on my iphone 5s that i purchased from itunes would play.
i read something about it being a syncing issue. when you plug your phone into your computer with the usb cable, the person said to switch from automatic syncing of itunes to the "manual" option. mine was already set to manual so i wasn't sure anything would work. BUT, when i plugged my phone into my computer, it started to sync all of my music on my phone again (top of itunes bar where song playing/time is listed said "now syncing 123/534 songs to x's iphone"). once that was completed, i checked the music app on my iphone and everything was back to normal!
so, i would suggest setting your music syncing settings to manual if you haven't tried that yet!
hope this helps!

Help! Pictures are not shown when saving to PDF. Cannot Preview Print Job.

I guess you need to fix it
Or if you would like some help provide some information - there are no mind reader supporting this forum and we can only work with the information you give us - right not that is "it does not work"
iPhoto has no "save to PDF" function - exactly what are you doing? and what exactly do you want to do?

I used the ticker tape mode to add subtitles to a clip. When playing it in the pc, the Subtitles are fine, however, when playing it on the tv, only the top half of the words are visible. Any idea why?

I added subtitles to a movie clip using the ticker tape option. When viewing on the iMac, the words are visible, however, when playing it in the tv, only the top half of the words are visible. Does anyone know why?

I would agree with Keith Barkley, it may be the TV Safe Area. You can see what spots might be blocked out or cut off by going to iDVD and opening the original DVD project, under the View Menu > Show TV Safe Area. If your title gets cut off by the cropping rectangle displayed, that may account for the cut-off.

I have calibrated with spyder4elite and now my blacks are tinted red, how do I fix this?

I have been using spyder4elite to calibrate my iMac monitor and until now the black and whites have been fine, but now my blacks are tinted red. Does anyone know what I might have done wrong? I recently purged my cache - could that have changed something? How can I fix it now?
Thanks in advance if anyone can help me.

Confirm that you have the latest drivers for the Spyder, 4.5.6. The release notes state that earlier releases had a problem with color cast on some systems. Then run the calibration again. If you continue to have problems, you may want to take this issue up with Datacolor technical support; it's possible that your calibrator is defective, or they may have tips.

My pictures send through iMessage only to certain people. And others the message is saying " delivered" but the person on the other end isn't getting any of my picture messages and sometimes regular iMessages with no pictures.

I was sure this curse was an Android feature since I had it constantly with my Nexus phones for the last two years, but sure enough it affects iOS8 too. Turn off wireless and and your MMS will go out fine over cellular ever time (in my experience anyway). Ridiculous, right?

Why are my itunes-synced songs and pictures are incomplete (corrupted) when transfered to my iPhone? E.g. songs start from somewhere in the middle and glitch continiously.

Why are my itunes-synced songs and pictures are incomplete (corrupted) when transfered to my iPhone? E.g. songs start from somewhere in the middle and glitch continiously. This is a big problem which means all my windows -> iphone pictures are half black or glitched on the iphone. Also my songs are completely glitched. I have tried resyncing and different USB-ports.

Same problem on Iphone 4s AND windows 7. Really annoying that I can't have any music on my brand NEW device.

BH-503 keeps on flashing blue and red when playing

my bh-503 keeps on flashing blue and red when playing,was thinking that maybe it weren't fully charged, but tried playing it when charging it does the same.i think the charging is okay because the red turns into blue after an hour or so,is everything normal?
Moderator's note: The subject was amended as the post was moved to a more appropriate board.

When the headset is connected with your mobile phone and ready for use, the indicator light of the headset slowly flashes blue.The indicator light is red while charging and when the battery is fully charged, the indicator light turns green.

Satellite 1100-Z14: I get the only picture but no sound when playing DVD's

I know mine is a fairly old notebook,but despite updating with latest firmware, I have an intermittent problem when playing DVD's (Reg 2) in that I get the picture but no sound, particularly with some older DVD's.
CD's are ok.
Toshiba repair agent says it is a software problem and they only deal with hardware problems.
Can anyone tell me how I can deal with this problem please ? ( apart from getting a later model ! )

I think I may have stumbled on the problem, I use IntervideoDVD7 and under audio effects there is an option
'Sydney Theatre' etc, I changed it to 'off' and the sound cames back. maybe I should study their manual a bit more !

Slideshow pictures are cut off when viewing on tv

Hi..I burned several iphoto slideshows onto a dvd via idvd. I used 16:9 aspect ratio whenever prompted. When I play the dvd and watch the slideshows on tv, all the pictures are cut off on the sides. I tried changing the tv screen (wide, cinema, normal, etc) but they are still cut off. The tv is hd. Any ideas how I might fix this? Thanks!

IMovie 10.0 contains glitch. Clips become tinted red when imported.

Just throwing it out there. You are not alone. It was reported to Apple that some imported clips become tinted red in the newest version. A news article. If you would like to help, does anyone have a work around. I must finish an editing project and I've tried everything. After the first few clips, the rest are red. Tried restarting, quiting and reopening, every setting.

I just found the solution for others experienceing this. It seems it happens most with .mov files. I changed to a mp4 by changing the file extension but iMovie still turned it red. The way I found is to convert it using SmartConverter in the app store for OSX to the iPad option.

User pictures are not shown when users are added to person field in custom list

Hi,
Recently we have migrated our intranet from SP2010 to SP2013. We upgraded User profile service application, My sites and Intranet site to new environment. We haven't upgraded sites to use SP 2013 templates due to some business decisions. Everything
is working fine and as expected.
There are few lists in our environment where we have added users in a persons fields and allowed to show their pictures with details along with name. these user pictures are not being shown on to the page. After looking in picture property I found that "white
Space" in a picture library name is replace by %2520 instead of %20 (/user%2520photos/profile%2520pictures).
I tried reproducing problem on a new team site with SP 2010 template and it is reproduced however it is not occurring for a team site with SP 2013 template.
Any suggestions would be very helpful for resolving this issue. Thanks in advance.
-Amol Meshe

We are experiencing the same issue. We get a /User%2520Photos/Profile%2520Pictures/ path anytime we use the people picker field with the option to display picture or the picture and details option.
EDIT: This is only a problem on the list view. If you open the display form the image shows just fine. I can't see any setting view Edit Page and updating the web part that contains the list data to correct this.

Pictures are loosing quality when imported into I photo 08

Hello all,
I have just recently made the switch to mac with no regrets, only a few questions. Here is my situation. I recently took some pictures at a wedding, I have a nikon d80 set with a jpeg setting. Now the pictures when viewed on my camera, on my windows PC and in finder look great. When I imported them into i photo, all the photo's have more red tones in them. Please advise.
One more thing, when I imported the pictures, I saved them all to the hard drive, then imported them into i photo. don't know if it makes a difference.

SD video is just 1/3 megapixel. Importing a multi-megapixel image into iMovie turns it into a 1/3 megapixel image (or if you use Ken Burn: a 1/3 megapixel video).
Fear not. When you burn a DVD it will look just fine.
IMPORTANT: When sending to iDVD from iMovie, iMovie may tell you that some stills are not rendered. Do NOT let iMovie render them. iDVD will do a much better job rendering them.
