Preview blurry images?

I have a few photos open in Preview, and they have a slight blur to them. Then I open the same files in photoshop, and they are crisp.
Anyone else notice this?
And I am a professional photographer, so no, the images are not out of focus

Yep, I noticed this straight away too. Strange considering Preview is the primary way of viewing images on a computer system designed for creative/arty people.
I've downloaded the press release screenshot for the new Final Cut Express 4, which is a 2400 x 1621 image. If I open it in Preview and Zoom To Fit, all the text looks as if it has a slight vertical motion blur on it. However, as I zoom into the image, I can see that there is a tremendous amount of detail and clarity in the image. It's clearly Previews fault as Photoshop would have no problem at all resampling this image but maintaining the clarity.
Also, I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but if you click the + or - buttons in Preview 4.0 to zoom in or out of the image, it zooms and then JUMPS up as the scroll bars appear! This is rubbish. I want to zoom IN, not zoom in THEN shift up.

Blurry Images

Hello, I am using Fireworks 8. When I create a nav bar or
other image, I have an issue with the image being blurry when I
import into Dreamweaver. I have image resolution set to 500 pixels
per inch which seems good enough to me and I am not stretching or
otherwise skewing the image in the table cell I am inserting it
into. I should say that I am new to Fireworks and also that the
images look fine in Fireworks. Thanks in advance.

The problem might be the export settings.
Open the Optimize panel, and then click on the Preview button
at the top
of the document window. Test the image with the various
export settings.
GIF for vector images and text with no gradients. JPEG for
photo images
and gradients. When you like the way the image looks, test in
your
browser again.

Blurry images in LR 5.3 Slideshow

I am having a problem with LR 5.3 creating very, very blurry images in a slideshow exported to a 720p mp4. Not all will be blurry, just random. And they are very blurry. Like it did not render the preview. Never had this problem before updating to 5.3.
Here is a screen shot of a blurred one.
And the next image in the slideshow, wich is just fine.
Any ideas?

Bob Somrak, I forgot to turn off the Export Negatives check box.
So I did the Export as Catalog and it came up with 3992 in All Photographs and 3991 in the file totals. So it got rid of the 10 extra pictures. I then had it syncronize the top level folder and it found and imported 10 photos. So I now have 4002 pictures and it is displaying 4002 pictures. 4002 is the total LR said I was supposed to have in the old catalog before I did the export, but it would only display 3992. Unfortunatly, I still have the problem that it thinks the sidecar files are missing. It does not seem to make any difference to anything, so maybe I should just not worry about that.
Thank you very much for your help!
I have two calalogs with family photos in them, I will now see if it will let me merge them.

Previewing an image before uploading

Hi,
I would like to upload images in my application and save those uploaded images to one folder in my system, i could do that with any problem. But i have to preview the image before uploading.
How to do this in JSP or either in html?
please help me in doing this..
thanks in advance

Write the image to some temporary location in your server machine. Either public or non-public. If non-public, you could use a servlet to display the image. If the end user has somehow confirmed the preview, then just move that image to the desired permanent location.
Working with file paths isn't going to work. IE is the only browser which is so dumb that it sends the complete client side file path along with the file name. In other browsers you won't know from which client side path the image is been uploaded.

Preview and image capture don't save imported scanned image

Hi. Both preview and image capture aquire the scanner and displays the image overview. But when proceeding
to scan, the application simply hangs and no image is saved.
Maybe some prefs file is corrupted. Tried removing the com.apple.Preview from ~/Library/Containers, but didn't help....
What to do???

Not sure if this is relevant:
1) TWAIN-BRIDGE is installed otherwise mavericks won't talk to the scanner.
2) recently added an HP printer (no scanner). Shouldn't conflict with the scanner driver, but then again.....

Preview and Image Capture Not Recognising Scanner

Preview and Image capture have stopped recognising my networked Canon MX350 scanner. It seemed to occur after I used PhotoScore to scan some sheet music but that could be coincidence. I deleted the scanner driver and reinstalled it from the Canon website together with the MP Navigator software, and I am now able to scan from MP Navigator but not Image Capture or Preview. I have run Software Update but no updates are available.

Apple's official documentation only provides an information about printing by using this device - scanner is not listed. I would suggest to look for specific drivers on Canon's official webpage.
OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download - Apple Support

I shot video on a Panasonic P2 and I'm trying to import the MXF files to Final Cut Pro but when I try to import, the only thing that imports is a blurry image of each clip. There's no audio and no video...how can I import MXF files into Final Cut Pro?

at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
vs
using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

Fix blurry images downloaded from Safari (The semi-easy way)

Hi, I've noticed a couple of people around here have had problems with image quality (blurry images) whenever an image was saved to the camera roll from Safari.
Turns out, there is a simple fix for this!
This fix requires a drawing app such as Brushes (Or any drawing app where you can take an image from your camera roll, and save to your camera roll).
Now, just open the image that is blurry in the selected drawing app.
Notice anything? The image is no longer blurry! Woo!
Now just save the image back to your camera roll, and delete the old blurry image. You won't be needing it anymore.
Problem solved.
(I think opening the picture in the drawing app reduces the size of said picture, making it less blurry. I'll try this the next time I find a blurry image to see the changes in quality. I'll also include a picture guide for those that don't understand how to do this (But would you really need it :P))
Hope this helps all that have this problem!

Like I said, I noticed a lot of people having this problem, so I decided to post this to hold everyone over until the problem is fixed. Maybe this problem will secretly be fixed in the 3.0 update? It certainly is easier and quicker than uploading the blurry photo itself into a program such as Photoshop and editing the dimensions there.

Browser preview of image

For an unknown reason, before I save an image for the web, I commonly preview the image in a browser. Now it seems to be applying the image as a tiled background image in browser preview. Where can I change this setting?

what did you do to resolve this? i am having the same problem plus the image details/specs is now showing on top covering the top part of the image and not the bottom of the image where it used to.

Preview, QuickTime, Image Capture crash?

I have a strange problem since the upgrade to Mavericks.
Preview, QuickTime, Image Capture apps simply don't work. Their icons appear in the dock for a brief second and disappear. No error message...
Any idea what's happening? Is there any way to reinstall only these apps?

Cannot preview remote image in design view

Hi,
I am using Dreamweaver 2004 MX and has just inserted an image referencing to a remote server.
However, Dreamweaver is unable to preview the image and only a small gray box can be observed.
I can preview it when the page in browser.
What's wrong with my DW?
Thanks

I'm not sure whether Dreamweaver MX 2004 has the ability to display external images in Design view. In Dreamweaver CS4, you turn this feature on and off by selecting Commands > Display External Files. If that option isn't available on your Commands menu, it means your version of Dreamweaver doesn't support the display of external files.
Unfortunately not, David. Handling external links was not introduced until DW8 (one after MX 2004).
Commands > Display External Files was introduced in the 8.0.1 updater for DW8 to enable this new (at the time) feature to be switched off.

Blurry images question

OK, I have run into a problem troed to solve now I have to ask the ID gods. I have a project that I did which was to edit some text and change some links in an .indd file.
I was sent a pdf to look at first along with t a list of instructions. The pdf looked fine all images nice and crisp, then I was sent the .indd master file for that pdf.
When opened the master .indd file I noticed that there are a few images which are blurry. But looking at the pdf that came from this .indd the pics are fine.
I need to get to the bottom of this as there is no need to re export and save as a new pdf as I see the blurred pics are in the .indd.
Any help here?
R

OK here is a fact, when I do a project I usually get the pacakage folder with all links but this indd did not have a linked image file I just got the ind itself, yet when I opened it I got the missing links message but the images were viewable inside the .indd file the complaint was after I did the edots and resaved that is when the blurry images were noticed But these were in the indd before, so moving on.
I now have got the images in another separate file but the images are not linked. I would think now to have the folder with tall the images in the same foldewr aas the .indd and link ALL images to see it I still see those few that are blurry. I do see that the image it self outside of the indd is NOT blurry. Which leads me to believe whoever imported this image into the indd originally did not optimize correctly.
Am I on the right track?

No preview of images in a folder

I can't preview any image formats in navigation pane or preview pane of a FOLDER without opening every single image in a new preview window.

Hi
I think there is something wrong with Vista and files there. Please go into PUBLIC Public Pictures Sample Pictures folder. Is the same situation there?
Sorry but I believe you have done something wrong there. I can not believe this strange issue occurs from the first day.
If you want to be sure install OS again using delivered recovery DVD and everything will work again.
