Slideshow in iMovie too small to edit

Hello!
I will try to explain this the best way that I can. I exported a slideshow from iPhone and imported it into iMovie. The slideshow is 10 minutes and 53 seconds. After importing it, the clip to edit is about an inch on the screen. I cannot extend the clip to edit it more precisely so adding songs and stuff is hard to do in a one inch space. How do I make the slide show "longer" when editing?
Thanks!
Tina

This slider adjusts time scale of timeline:
and this slider adjusts the height of the clip thumbnails:

Images too small to edit

Something just happened here. In the past, when I open any photo in Elements 10, the image would pretty much fill the space. the bottom edge of the picture would almost reach the bottom of the workspace...whether vertical or horizontal format. Then I would create a duplicate and hit either ctrl + 0 (zero) and the duplicate would be a nice large size. ( Double clicking on the little hand in the tool bar would also do the same trick).
Now , for some reason, the picture opens to maybe 60% of that size. It's way too small to work on comfortably. The duplicate is even smaller. When I hit the ctrl + 0 ...nothing happens size remains the same. If I pull on lower right hand corner to enlarge...it only enlarges the ruler and frame. Picture itself remains same small size. How can I get that back? I tried a system restore. that did not work. Thank you.

Hi Barbara,
Thank you for your response.
I don't use the Organizer. Never have. I have my own system which I've been using for over 10 years and thousands of pictures...first with Photoshop 6; later with PSE 7 on earlier computers and now with PSE 10 since June 2012. Its always been fine beforehand. And I have only had problems with 10 on this. Its happened before but I think last time it was under warranty and on screen dialog Support Team helped me get it back.
This is how I work.....
Whenever I save my photographs, I create a (new) file on the desktop. then I will download all the images from that project from the SD card into the file ( example...Quebec...or Dilapidated Houses; or Antique Car Show 5/2013; etc etc.) OK then when I want to edit a picture.... I open that particular one in PSE. Then I immediately make a duplicate. OK Here is where the problem now occurs. Prior to today, after I have the duplicate on the screen.....I would just hit ctrl + 0 (zero) and the picture enlarged to a nice size. Very easy to see and work with. (One can also double click on the little hand in the tool bar for the same effect). But something happened here and when I now do that...the image does NOT enlarge. It actually creates a smaller duplicate. Which makes it VERY hard to edit when its so small.
Please refer to the page attached to this email file. These should help to show what my problem is here.
How do I get back the function where ctrl + 0 (zero) or double clicking on the toolbar hand gives me a nice full image?
Thank you.

Fireworks CS-4 Slideshow images are too small. How can I fix this?

I've used the Fireworks CS-4 slideshow, for the Portfolio page of my website, for awhile now. However, more recently, after I've added new images to my slideshow, and previewed the slideshow in my browser, all the images are showing up way too small in the viewing area (slightly larger than thumbnail size). This was not happening before. I am running Windows 7 Pro on a 64 bit machine. Originally, I was running Vista Home Premium. Have not "put" the updated slideshow until issue is resolved. What may be causing the smaller images? What can I do to fix the problem? I'm a wysiwyg designer; not a techy. Thanks.

Here is a screenshot of what is loading....
I can't even get add-ons or extensions.

Slideshow Photos Displaying Too Small?

I have just created my third site in iWeb and did it identically to my first two. They are very basic and each has a photo page where you can see photos, enlarge them and view a slideshow. Problem is that this third site is bringing up the enlarged photos and slideshow photos much smaller than the other two sites. As stated I did everything the exact same. Any ideas on why my third site is not behaving correctly.
Here are the three sites. #3 is the issue. Thanks for any help!

I think iPhoto is storing or making a 360*240 Thumnail or iPod pic to go with the original & that's what is getting uploaded.
I don't know how it works, but if you could get the big pic say in another APP & save it, send that, I think it would work, like say GraphicConverter...

Re: iPhoto. iBooks. Font is too small for me to edit. Any solutions?

Re: iPhoto,iBooks. I am making a book for someone using Old World Travel. There are several spots in the book for text, but even using the largest font available is too small to edit or check spelling. Help?

If you have topics with different backgrounds, check that they all have the same CSS file applied to them. Are there Master Pages on your topics? You could try copying in a backup CSS file but I doubt this would make any difference if it is exactly the same. Could you look inside the HTML for one of the topics and see if anything is amiss there.

Photoshop resolution on Macbook Pro 15" Retina display too small

I've just bought a Macbook Pro 15" and I'm trying to use Photoshop, but the resolution its displaying the images at for 100% are too small. I have to design for the web, so need to be intricate with detail, but I'm finding it adjusts the resolution of the image right down. (I mean you can see the image clearly, but it's too small to edit). When I look at Safari and see a web page at 100% it's clear, but the same page displayed in Photoshop CC appears 50% of the size (even though it says it's 100%)
If I move the application window to another screen it adjusts it correctly – leaving all the pallettes, menus and tools correctly sized as they are on the retina display
Is there some way to adjust the way Photoshop CC displays images so it is more consistent with what you actually see?
There doesn't seem to be any answer on the Adobe forum, so hopefully someone here can shed some light.

Well that certainly helps in terms of making the image larger – only problem is with the low resolution there's a loss of clarity and pixelisation of the image; so not the same level of quality...
In System Preferences/Display, what resolution do you have your screen set to? Try changing that also to see if the two settings can work together. Also, since the vast majority of users (Mac or PC) don't have Retina Displays, isn't what you're seeing with Low Resolution checked in Photoshop closer to what most people will see? Remember that Apple's software, such as Safari, have been upgraded to take full advantage of the rMBP display; most other browsers, especially in Windows, haven't.
And if you want to tinker with the rMBP's resolution even further, check out "Eye-Friendly" in the App Store.

I tested both ways. With "open in low resolution" ckecked the size of the images is cool, but it is low-resolution including Photoshop appearance.
If "open in low resolution" is unckecked the appearance is good but the very small size.
See the image below. It has 650 x 732 px, 72 dpi. The font of the text "Neste aniversário ..." is with 18pt.

Cap3: Edit Audio Timing display's thumbnail is too small

Hello ... Regarding Captivate 3 ...
I'm trying to time my voice-over audio to a series of
application scenario slides using the Edit Audio Timing display,
but am finding it extremely difficult because the small changes in
my slides (radio button selections, text input, dropmenu
selections, etc.) are too small to detect on the miniscule
thumbnail used in the display.
Is this poor interface design, or is there a setting
somewhere that allows me to increase the size of the thumbnail?
I've looked around, but can't find one. How do you handle syncing
audio to stretches of small screen changes?
Regards, Myron

Hi Myron
I won't argue as to whether this is good, bad or indifferent
interface design. But it is what it is and as far as I know it
cannot be changed. At first I thought perhaps we might see a change
if right-clicking the image and choosing "Zoom in". But all that
does is zooms in on the waveform.
This doesn't help any, but you may wish to make the
development staff aware that you would like to see the behavior
change in a future version. You may do this by
clicking
here and completing the form you should find there.

"This text file is too large to edit" for a very small file

Hi all,
I uploaded a small JS script file, less than 2K, into the Shared Components/Static Files. When I was trying to edit it, I got the error "this text file is too large to edit".
Anybody experiences this ? Any solutions ?
My Apex version is 4.2.2.00.11.
Thanks,
Vu

Interesting. I have an SQL file that is about 4K. I copy this file to two files, one with extension .CSS and one JS then upload these three files into the Shared Components/Static Files. I can then edit the SQL and CSS, but I cannot edit the JS file.
I guess this has something to do with the extension ?
Thanks,
Vu

How can I use the bridge photos that are thumbnail size and place in Photoshop to edit, etc? The size is too small, - how to enlarge without blur?

When I use Bridge to transfer a photo into Photoshop, the size is thumbnail. It is too tiny to edit into Photoshop. How to enlarge without blur?

That is the actual size of your image file. 48 x 38 is very small.
That is not a Bridge or Photoshop problem.
It is a very small image and you cannot enlarge it more than x 1.5.
If you want a large photo you must ask for it from whoever gave it to you, or take a bigger photo if it is yours.

Has anyone solved the problem of 'oop,file too small' when uploading iMovie project to Vimeo.

Vimeo says ' oops, file too small' when I try to upload an iMovie project. My file is definitely big enough. Any clues, please?

It's OK, I've cracked it with the help of my son.

The toolbar displays File, Edit, View, etc. print too small & barely able to read. How to enlarge print. Also background color of toolbars hard to read. It is black. make larger?

The Menu Bar, Roboform Bar in general all toolbars the print is too small and barely able to read. Please tell me how to enlarge the print. Also, the background color is black and hard to read. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Use this extension to adjust the font size for the user interface:
*Theme Font & Size Changer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/theme-font-size-changer/
Increase the String pref layout.css.devPixelsPerPx from 1.0 to 2.0 in 0.1 or 0.05 steps to adjust the size of all fonts and other elements in Firefox.<br />
In current Firefox versions this pref is a String value parsed to a float and allows to fine tune the dimensions of all elements (user interface and web pages) more precisely.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages if the above steps made the text too large.
*Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/

In iPhoto 11 imported tiff files remain tiff after editing. I need to convert to large file jpegs. How? using the "export" function they become too small

I thought imported tiff files would be converted by iPhoto to JPEGS in previous versions of iPhoto. this might have been a disadvantage but my current project requires JPEGs as the final product.
thanks for any guidance
Jim

Drag the photo from the iPhoto window to the desktop or export as kind = JPEG
As to too small - what is too small? The pixel dimensions of the exported JPEG will be identical to the original TIFF - the file size is smaller because JPEGs are compressed - which of course reduces file size - which of course is the reason that JPEG exists

How do I create a scrolling slideshow in iMovie?

So I know how to make a basic slideshow in iMovie, but I'd like to create a "scrolling/sliding" slideshow (see link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXit8kxCCTg). That video uses videos, however, I'm using still pictures. The pictures can all just be side by side too, they don't have to stack like one on top of the other (I'll edit all my photos before hand to make them the same height). I'm using iMovie '11. I'll probably have 150-300 pictures all together. I'd also love to add a timeline to the bottom of the pictures to scroll with the pictures...should I just add that in to each individual picture before hand, and then put it all into iMovie, or can I do it all in iMovie? Also, towards the end of that youtube video, it all starts scrolling backwards....is there a way to do this???
Basically, I'd like to create a scrolling picture timeline with continuous text scrolling across the bottom that I can also play in reverse. Is this even possible in iMovie? Any help with this would be GREATLY appreciated. This is time sensitive. I really need to know how to do this by Friday. THANKS!!!!!

I agree with John that you could do this in Final Cut Pro X and Motion, but there is probably a plugin that you can purchase that would do the hard work in Motion for you.
I think it might be technically possible to do this in Motion and export out in a file that iMovie can import, but in the video example, there is a lot more going on such as multicam syncing that would require Final Cut Pro X. Motion's strength is not to use it as a video editor. It is best used as a way to create a special effect that you can then use in a FCPX project. (just my opinion)
Here are some example of FCPX plugins. There are hundreds more.

Exporting slideshows on Imovie '09 vs Imovie '11 question.

I made several slideshows using Imovie '09 and when I exported them at a 1080p size on my desktop, the size of the downloaded .mov files were between 107MB and 125MB. I upgraded to Imovie '11 and I've made a similar slideshow and when I download it at a 1080p size on my desktop, the size of the .mov file is over 700MB. I then downloaded one of my previous slideshows that had downloaded at a size of 125MB and it downloaded at a size over 500MB using I'movie '11. I like to download my slideshows to Itunes or facebook, but they are now too large to download. Am I doing something wrong? Should I go back to Imovie '9?
Thanks,
Larry

When one exports there are several things that are used to decide the size of the final product. I think that 1080P only speaks to the dimensions, but probably, if you look at both slideshows in quicktime inspector, you will see that the data rates are really different.
A data rate of 300 kbts second will have a smaller file size, but the quality will be low.
A date rate of 2000 kbts second will have a much larger file size, but look nicer.
It has nothing to do with the version of iMovie you are using.
Do a custom export and play around with the settings.
