Resizing stage to fit imported jpg file

Hi, is there a straight-forward way to resize the stage e.g.
from portrat to landscape for pictures that have different height
and width dimensions?
thanks!

to my knowledge no, but i could be wrong.. buggy, yet, you
can set wmode to transparent and have your canvas much larger than
all your images and it wont matter, just set a background image or
color from in HTML.

PrE 11 will not import .jpg files from organizer

Hi,
I just upgraded from PS & PrE 8 to the lastest version 11. I'm running on a Windows 7 pc. My catalog was successfully converted and new pictures were added. I now want to create a dvd with both pictures and videos. I tried various ways to import .jpg files in PrE but some (most) of my files will not import. I get error messages about the files not being supported (missing codex) or the files being too large.
After reading on the forums and on Adobe help site. It seems opening and resaving the files in the organizer fix this. I try and it worked. As I have many files to import (200+), I wonder if there is a way to do some sort of a batch process for all file.
Secondly, also I read PrE can automatically resize the image file to the project size. How can this be acheive ?
Thanks for your help

Please see my answer to this question. It's essentially the same answer I'd give you.

You can not create a playable DVD or incorporate video and photos in the same project with full resolution photos on it. Video resolution/TV resolution is only 720x480 (standard resolution) or 1920x1080 (high rez).
Premiere Elements has a governor that limits the size of a photo you can add to a video project (which is probably what you're running into). In fact, you'll get much better results if you use LOWER resolution photos in your video project -- 1000x750 pixels for DVDs and standard resolution video and 2000x1500 for BluRays and high-def video.

IPhoto crashes when I import jpg files

I use iPhoto 6.0.5, which is the latest. I have 1908 photos on an ext drive. I never had any problem importing photos, but now I cannot import jpg files. It would start by saying importing, but it just crashes. No warning. What to do? I already tried using Photoshop Elements to resave and import.

I write both JPG and DNG files in the camera.   Camera is a Leica Monochrom.   Photo, unlike iPhoto, seems to ignore DNG files and only imports JPG files.   What am I missing here?

I write both JPG and DNG files in the camera.   Camera is a Leica Monochrom.   Photo, unlike iPhoto, seems to ignore DNG files and only imports JPG files when both are present on the SD card. JPGs are used for quick proofing on an iPad.    DNG RAW files are edited on a Mac Pro (2013).    Other than deleting the JPGs before importing images from the SD card, is there any way to force Photo to select and import only the DNG images?

Thanks Larry,
I did see the J stacked in the lower left of the thumbnails but couldn't figure out how to get to whatever is below it.   How do you select R?
I use an iPad to do quick proofs of my images.   A JPG is good enough for a proof ( dust on the lens, composition, blown out image, etc. ).   The iPad is JPG friendly and can load the images quickly.    Serious editing takes place on my Mac Pro with the DNG files.   I use the same workflow with the the Leica M 240.   iPhoto has been a quick and easy importer to the Mac capturing all of the metadata in the EXIF sidecar file ( location, date, time, camera settings, lens type). A quick scan in iPhoto for the "keepers" let's me export those worth editing to Lightroom/Bridge/Photoshop. I typically shoot 50 images from three locations in a normal day. If I'm lucky I'll get 1 worth real work to add to the portfolio.

When I import .jpg files they sparodically turn to black. Any suggestions?

I am using Premier Pro CS3. When I import .jpg files, they suddenly turn to black. Any suggestions?

I also think that JPEGs themselves can be sometimes problematic in CS3. You may also want to try converting them to PSD or BMP.
As I remember from discussions on the old forum...
Depending on how the JPG was created (which software and/or which camera) there is sometimes "extra" information inside the file header that confuses Premiere since it is not part of the basic file specification
Solution was to open in Photoshop (or, rarely, a non-Adobe program) and save to a new name or, as Dan says, to a different format

Problems Importing .jpg Files

Hi,
When I import .jpg files as a slideshow they have an overall blue cast. Frequently I get a warning message the "...this type of file cannot be transcoded..."
The files can be opened correctly in Photoshop CS5, iPhoto or Preview.
System: MacPro (Intel)
OSX 10.8.2
Memory 12GB
Encore CS3.0.1

Hi,
I have the same camera, and exactly the same problem. Could you solve this issue ?
About images of Pentax cameras looking dark in Aperture, many people mention "if Highlight Correction is enabled, the image is shot at -1 EV exposure compensation, and then everything but the highlights is pushed up in the camera when it makes the JPEG version" -- and thus the solution seems to be to disable this highlight correction. But to me it seems that there is no highlight correction in the k100d super...
Aperture 3 actually clips the histogram (dark pixels turn completely black) with respect to the same PEF file read with the Pentax Photo Lab app or the Gimp. The "Raw Fine Tuning" adjustements do not solve this.

Is it possible to ignore and not import JPG files when a JPG and raw file of the same name exist?

Is it possible to ignore JPG files on import? I shoot raw + JPG and see no reason to keep the JPGs; I shoot JPG primarily as a backup (I back all the JPGs up online to my smugmug account then delete them before importing the raw files), but they're also occasionally handy if one wants to get a quick print in the field. I know that one can set a preference to "Treat JPEG Files Next to Raw Files As Separate Photos", but even then they still are imported.
As an example, say I have this scenario (not on DSLRS, but on pNs cameras, sometimes a JPG but not raw is captured - I suspect this has to do with how the buffer is filling) with these files on a memory card:
IMG_0001.JPG
IMG_0001.CR2
IMG_0002.JPG
IMG_0003.JPG
IMG_0003.CR2
When I import pictures from this folder, I'd like 2 CR2 files and 1 JPG to be imported. I'm even willing to copy the relevant files and drag and drop them onto LR's Library module. But even if I do that, all five files get imported. Thanks!

No, I don't believe that's correct. As I said in my previous post, Lightroom's Import is a two-stage process.....first copy the files from the card, then when that is finished, render whatever previews have been requested.
AFAIK there is nothing unusual about my system, Lightroom has always imported in this two-stage way as far back as I can remember. Based on this I see no 'safety' benefit from copying files first outside Lightroom, then using an ADD import process. On the contrary, as this takes away the possibility of using the "Second Copy on Import" option, as well as having to manually setup import folders, I see nothing but downside from that approach.
Mea culpa, Jim is correct! I checked my Windows 7 system with LR4.2 and I monitored the 'Destination folder' during an import direct from memory card to hard drive. 'Copy and import' showed in the progress bar until all image files were visible using Windows Explorer in the 'Destination folder.' Only after all files had transferred did the progress bar change to ‘Render 1:1 Previews.’ I started using LR1.0 on a Pentium 3 single-core system with Windows XP 32 bit, which I think is when I made this observation. Regardless, it is clear that LR4.2 is using a two-step import process. Thanks Jim for being persistent!
It still begs the question why some people are experiencing very slow imports, damaged image files, and other related import problems from memory cards? My guess (and it's only a guess) is that they have 1) 'Rename Files,' 2) 'Automatically write changes into XMP,' or 3) 'Include Develop settings in metadata inside JPEG, TIFF and PSD files' checked in LR preferences. It would be a good idea for anyone experiencing import issues to try an import with these three (3) options unselected.
My apologies to the OP DBarman for going off topic. Hopefully the extra information and observations are helpful.

Importing jpg files from hard drive

I am trying to import all my pictures into iphoto however am getting an error:
Unreadable file, The following file cannot be imported. (import failed).
The files I am importing are *.jpg files from various camera I have owned over 5 years. I have all the photos uploaded into my apple TV as well as being very easily readable through other picture viewers on my Mac. I cant seem to understand why it would not import into iphoto.
Please can somebody help me if you have ever had this issue before.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try copying a few to the desktop and from there into iPhoto. If that is successful then there's something about being on the Apple TV drive that iPhoto doesn't like. If that's the case you may have to copy the photos to the desktop, import into iPhoto and then delete them from the desktop.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Can't import .jpg files from iPhoto Library

What is the meaning of the error message I invariably get when attempting to import a photo file? It goes like this:
"The file could not be imported: The file “Macintosh HD/Users/alex/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals/2006/20060415 To Aigina with grandad and grandma/DSC04837.JPG” can’t be imported; QuickTime couldn’t parse it: -2048"
Many thanks, people.

One more thing: I went into iPhoto's preferences, in Advanced, and checked the first option (Importing: Copy files to iPhoto Library folder when adding to library). I then added one photo to the library.
Then, from iMovie, I selected that newly added photo and bam! it was in! So, I guess, iMovie can't handle correctly iPhoto Library photos if they have not been copied into the iPhoto Library folder structure, correct? Is that what the expected behavior of iMovie HD should be? or a bug to be addressed in future upgrades?
Many thanks, as always.

CS3 - can't import jpg - files grayed out - Mac

I'm trying to complete a tutorial in Fireworks CS3 on Mac 10.5.6.
The step I'm stuck on is:
"Select File > Import and browse to the following folder on your hard disk:
local_sites/cafe_townsend/fireworks_assets/
Select banner-mockup.jpg and click Open.
An insertion pointer appears indicating where the upper-left corner of the graphic will be positioned."
None of the JPG files are selectable, they're grayed out.
Other files in that folder, TXT and PNGs are selectable.
Other JPGs that are not in the folder indicated are also selectable.
I can drag the file from Finder into the Fireworks document ok.
I've checked the Sharing & Permissions on the files and containing folders and they all have Read & Write.
I copied a JPG that was selectable for import elsewhere into the fireworks_assets folder, and it's still selectable (not grayed out).
The files were copied & pasted in an earlier tutorial step from a different folder (Macromedia Fireworks 8/Tutorial_assets).
Trying to import them from the original location also fails.
So it seems there's something specific to these JPGs causing Fireworks to not want to import them.
I can't figure out what.
The specific file I can't import is attached.

Not sure why you can't import the file, I'd suspect something is goofed up with the actual JPEG if you can import other JPEGS with no issues. However, if you can drag and drop or copy and paste the image into your Fireworks document then you're ending up with the same results the tutorial is aiming for anyway.

Why is iPhoto not importing JPG files?

I am trying to import photos from a Canon EOS Rebel to my iMac. It has always worked fine but it is now showing that the JPG file is not a recognized format. I was able to import the same photo to an old older MacBook Pro running the same OSX 10.6.8 and iPhoto '11 9.1.3.

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Importing jpg files to PSE6

Whenever I try to get photos from my camera or files on my computer the dialogue box shakes (really) and most of the file names disappear, and I get a message telling me that 'the file could not be copied'. Any ideas?

We are just people like you trying to help you.... language and interpretation can be a problem but anger helps no one.
Try listing the steps you take like:
1. Connect my Nokia xxx phone to my xxx Mac
2. Iphoto opens and the photos are imported
3.I try to get them to Lightroom but they won't import..

Unable to import jpg file: Error: This file is in an unrecognized format.

I have an iMac 2009 with Mavericks 10.9.3 and iPhoto 11 (v 9.5.1) and am getting an error message trying to load 1000 .jpg photos from ScanCafe. The error message is: this file is in an unrecognized format.
I have tried the following but am still unsuccesful:
1) Upgraded all software
2) Disk Utility repair permissions.
3) Rebooted system.
4) Deleted com.apple.iPhoto plist files.
4) Tried to import the photos into a new test library within iphoto.
Interestingly, my son's MacBook is able to load the photos into iphoto. His ancient laptop is using Mountain Lion 10.8.5 and the same iPhoto 11 (9.5.1). I have also tried to upload the file from his computer to mine, but the same "unrecognized format" error is received.
Does anyone have any suggestion

That's a problem with the format of the photos sent to you by ScanCafe. The original poster in this topic contacted ScanCafe and had new disks sent to him which solved the problem:
Re: ScanCafe jpeg photo file unrecognized format in iPhoto, not Preview
I suggest you contact Carl at ScanCafe and get replacement disks with correctly formatted files.

My iMac will no longer import .jpg files. With either iPhoto or image capture

Can someone tell me why iPhoto and Image Capture say that .jpg is no longer a supported format. I've imported hundreds of photos from my camera before and now I can't. I noticed this after I had placed the SD card in my Panasonic Viera TV to view the photos. Is it possible that the TV screwed up the formating on the SD card? I'm still able to view them on the camera, but unable to import them.

Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If the problem does not repeat itself in the test library then your current library is the culprit.
If that's the case try the following: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
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.

IPhoto '09 won't import JPG files from my phone.

Here's the step-by-step
I have a new Samsung Evergreen phone that evidently stores photos in .JPG format, not sure yet if I can tell it to save them as .JPEG.
On my MacBook, I have over 10,000 photos in my iPhoto library imported from several different cameras and copied from previous computers.
I attach the phone to the Mac with a microUSB-->USB cable. (( BTW - MacBookPro is Intel Core 2 Duo ca August '09 ))
Phone wants to know about USB mode.... I select "Media Player"
iPhoto'09 (V 8.1.2 (424)) comes alive recognizes the device, finds the pictures, and offers to Import them. Cool!... I select "Import All".
iPhoto goes through the motions of importing all 22 files then displays a message "The following file could not be imported. (The file is in an unrecognized format.) this is followed by a list of all 22 files.
I know that most, if not all, images in my iPhoto database are JPEG suffixed. But from all I've read, JPG and JPEG are identical/interchangeable
I've been a devout Mac user for over 2 years now and haven't ever encountered a problem with anything that needed to be resolved on this discussion board or even by calling Apple Support. All I can conclude about this is that I'm doing something really, grossly, stupid. But I sure don't know how to proceed. Should I go to an Apple Retail store and have them figure it out?
Appreciate any thoughts you folks may have on this.

2 Possibilities:
The phone is taking non-standard jpegs in some way of other
Or
The phone is broken and the jpegs are corrupted in some way
Why do I blame the phone? Because neither the Mac nor the PC can access the files.
So, back to Samsung for help on that one.
No, no one from Apple reads or responds on here. As the Terms of Use make quite clear, this is a space for Users to seek help from other Users only. It's not a substitute for AppleCare. There are something in the region of 100,000,000 iPhones out there. It's inevitable that some devices will have issues, and some users. So, taken in that scale, the fact that - what - a couple of hundred people have issues mightn't seem so appalling.
