Slideshow Photo orientation

Hi,
I cannot get the sideshows to show portrait orientation
photos. They turn to landscape sideways even I turn them in the
setup phase. Anyone having same trouble with CS3?

Myra,
The Slide Show Preferences that appear by default when you start creating a slide show have choices for
Crop to Fit
for Landscape and for Portrait photos
These choices are checked by default. I usually uncheck both of these boxes and then I see the entire image for my portrait photos on the "Slide" with black background on either side. (you can change the background to another color is you wish)
A mystery is that I thought that unchecking only the Portrait box should have been sufficient to control a portrait mode photo, however I have experienced cases where in version 7 I found it necessary to also uncheck the landscape box also in order to see all of a portrait mode photo.

  • Slideshow with origami transitions - photo orientation changed

    I started playing around with the slideshow, and was happy with the origami transitions until I realized that for a few of my photos, it had rotated the images 90 degrees. They consistently showed up in the wrong orientation as the slideshow cycled through all my images.
    Is there a way to specify which is the desired orientation for display in the slideshow for a photo?
    And I wasn't messing with the angle of the iPad at all, so it wasn't changing the screen display orientation...
    Thanks!

    Clear instructions: Click on photo in iPhoto, then go to File, choose 'Reveal in Finder', select 'Original File'. A window opens up where the original photo file is held. Open the photo in Preview. Rotate photo as needed. Close and save. You are done. Restart your AppleTV and turn your photos on and off to share in iTunes. Ta Da, it all works and it's very easy.

  • Photo Orientation Incorrect When Viewing MobileMe

    I've tried to find a solution to this by searching other posts. What I've found is this is not a new problem. I have two AppleTVs and I have the same problem on both units.
    But this is the real oddity. The photos not only display correctly orientated when viewed through a browser on both a Mac and iPhone (as well as the MyGallary app), but they also display correctly on AppleTV when previewing (as they carousel) while in the applicable onscreen navigation menus, and when they are displayed as a screen saver set to "Floating". However, if directly viewing in slideshow or when the screen saver is set to "Slideshow" the orientation is all messed up. And the current photos I'm view where also all taken with an iPhone and uploaded directly to the users MobileMe account.
    And on top of all that, when I viewed the first 4-5 photos on AppleTV (now up to 15 photos) they displayed in the correct orientation. Now some of those that did display correctly are messed up.
    How can the preview and floating screensaver correctly display the photos, they have a wrong orientation when in slide show. Again, this is on two aTVs. Seriously, there have only been Apple devices and Apple services used - this is should not be happening.
    I've have this problem in the past on both aTVs, but the pictures where taken with a Canon and uploaded to mobileme from an iMac. I figured it was a minor inconvenience and that Apple would resolve this in subsequent updates - this was over a year ago.
    The only thing I've tried to do so far is to delete the user's MobileMe account and then re-added - nothing corrected.
    Oh, and the software is up to date on both units.

  • Changing photo orientation

    The photo orientation on the CHAPTERS THEME main page is vertical. How do I change it to horizontal?
    thank you

    Unlike the books, calendars do not change the orientation of a frame depending on the orientation of the photo dropped into it.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries and Leopard. 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.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 Slideshow Image Orientation

    Hi,
    I wonder if anyone can help me please? My OS is WIndows 7 Premium and I am using Photoshop Elements and Premier 10.
    I have created a slideshow in Photoshop Elements and saved this to DVD (PAL as I am in the UK). All images are the correct orientation and display correctly when on my PC. However, once saved on DVD and played through my DVD player to the TV there are a number of images being displayed in the incorrect orientation.
    Does anyone know how to correct this please?
    Thanks.

    Hi everyone,
    I agree with suspicion that Premiere Elements is probably making the mistake of displaying the photos incorrectly.   However, I suspect that avoiding the problem by actions in the Organizer may be the most practical alternative. 
    Ken, can you help with some details ?
    1 - I am not at a computer where I can verify this statement -- but I think that in earlier versions of the Organizer, there is an Organizer Preference which controls how the photo is rotated (by orientation indicator only) or by actually rotating the photo. And by orientation indicator only is the default.  Does that Preference still exist in version 10 ? If yes, then I think rotating multiple photos at the same time within the Organizer would probably be a circumvention of the problem that shows on the photo orientation on the DVD. 
    2 -- My expereince and what I have seen reported on these forums is that the Elements Organizer does recognize an Orientation indicator which has been set in a photo file by the camera. So portrait mode photos which come from the camera with this Orientation indicator usually (maybe always) display correctly within the organizer.
    Therefore since this thread says "All images are the correct orientation and display correctly when on my PC", I suspect that the person originating this thread did not make any orientation correction.
    3-- The type of approach that I believe some people have successfully used, is to first set the Organizer preference to actually rotate the photo file: then do
    -- one rotate if necessary to have the photo display correctly in the Organizer
    -- if the portrait photo initially looked OK in the Organizer, then 2 rotates would be done : first would set the photo on its side (temporarily) and then the second rotate would be back in the other direction.  These actions can be done for multiple selected photos.
    4-- OR as an alternative to 3 (above), if the slide show has already been constructed within the Organizer Slide Show Editor, then there are methods to initiate an edit of a specific photo file which transfers to the PSE editor and can take the action of changing orientation in the PSE editor.,
    FYi - Mt Ventoux,
    Don't be discouraged by all the details I am discussing while we explore the best solution for you.

  • Photo orientation with AppleTV

    Hello all
    I have been having some problems with photo orientation in AppleTV screen saver and in viewing the iPhoto library on AppleTV. I did all the usual things, restarted the Apple TV, restarted computer, etc. What was really strange was the photos I had changed rotation in iPhoto were all good. It was AppleTV which wasn't seeing them as 'corrected' images. What AppleTV was doing, was seeing the original photos, rather than the edited versions (the correctly oriented photos).
    What I had to do was go to the original source of the photo. So I had to click on the photo, then go to File, see original file. The original file was still in the incorrect position. Once I opened this in preview and corrected it, it seemed to work. Will keep you posted. What is also interesting to note is that AppleTV was having problems with the original picture files of photos taken with a camera, rather than with the iPhone. There seems to be a bug here about how the AppleTV sees original and corrected files when the photos are taken with a digital camera.
    Keen to know what others have found.
    Happy AppleTV travels everyone.

  • Photo orientation in Ipad

    Hi I'm having problems with the photo orientation in Ipad. In my pictures, I have photos both in portraint and landscape mode. When I sync in Ipad, they are all landscape, the ones in portrait are orientated in landscape. How do I fix this. In my pc picture folder they are at the right orientation, but not in the ipad. Has anyone have this problem? and how do I fix it?

    Which OS are you using?
    I believe that old versions of Windows (XP and earlier) did not understand the orientation flag that is stored in the EXIF data. Most modern cameras have orientation sensors, and the save the orientation when the photo was taken in the EXIF data for the photo (the EXIF data is metadata that is stored along with the photo data in a jpg file).
    Any decent photo browser will understand the EXIF data and will display the photo properly without having to manually rotate the photo. However, if you manually rotate the photo in Windows, the photo data will be rotated, but the orientation flag will not be changed. When the photo is loaded into the iPad, it interprets the marker in the EXIF metadata and rotates the photo a second time.
    I'm not sure that this is your problem, but if it is your problem, then the photo is being displayed incorrectly on the PC, and the iPad is displaying it "correctly".
    If you think this might be the problem, try installing a program called irfanview on your PC. You can download it at: http://www.irfanview.com
    It is a great public domain image viewer program. If you install it, try looking at your photos in irfanview and see if it also rotates your photos like the iPad does.

    p.s. I can understand how what is happening must be annoying. The photo will be displayed incorrectly, and as you instinctively rotate the iPad to fix it, it auto-rotates again leaving the photo always in the wrong orientation.
    My OS is windows 7. So to fix it, I should rotate my pictures in my pc folder in landscape mode so that in the ipad it will be in portrait? As of right now in my pc folder my landscape pictures is in landscape in ipad but my portrait pictures is also in landscape in ipad. And no matter what I do, the portrait ones are always landscape. I've deleted the ipod photo cache and resynced. And no changed.

  • Slideshow photo size in "My Album" slideshow

    I recently created several albums in "My Albums" (love the look!), but I am puzzled at how small the photos are when I view them as a slideshow. They are approx. 1 3/4" x 1 1/2", compared to the slideshow in "My Gallery" where the photos about fill the screen. (And there those awful annoying shadows below each photo making my subjects looking like they are deformed with extra legs etc). Is there something that I am doing wrong? Did I miss something when I was setting up the pages/albums to make the slideshow photos different sizes? Right now the photos that appear in the album covers are even larger than those in the slideshow.

    Hi OT,
    Thank you for your input. Before I read your reply last night, I went through some of your old postings and did find a couple resolutions. You replied to a post from snipa (Norway), Aug. 22, 08, subject: "Comments on web sits (sic) photo" - then Mermaid 1632 asked a similar question - she wrote Oct 14th. You replied telling Snipa and mermaid on how to add the comment button to a website. In that reply you showed a picture of the photo/slideshow inspector options. So I went to that setting in my iWeb And there I found that the setting for large photo in slideshow was not ticked. It also gave me an option to unclick that awful shadow option. So I went to one of my pages and did the clicking and unclicking. I thought that would solve my problem. The shadow option worked fine, but the option for large photo, even though it did enlarge the photo somewhat, it still was not the full screen size that it used to be. It is now approx. 4 1/4 x 3 1/4 - whereas last night when I wrote it was only 2 1/2 x 1 3/4.
    You asked about my browser - I use Safari 3.2.1, and Firefox 3.0.5. I cleared the cache in both - that did not make a difference. I have a very old version of IE - so that would not even load the Gallery pages, so no point in even considering that browser. I had a friend with a PC and IE to check and she said that the photos in slideshow (that I had not changed) were still very small.
    Let's say that I settle for the 4 x 3 inch photos in slideshow it looks like that I am going to have to edit each photo page and make those changes one at a time. What do you think? Is there any way I can make the same changes on all the photo pages in one editing, rather than doing one at a time?
    I appreciate your help. That old posting gave me two great suggestions!

  • How do I get slideshow photos right-side-up?

    I rotate individual photos to get them right-side-up; but when I start a slideshow, the photos revert to appearing sideways. Can someone please help me figure out how to get the slideshow photos right-side-up? Thanks very much.

    If you perform a backup to icloud, the camera roll photos are included (if that setting was turned on) but not any other photos.  (Go to Settings>icloud>Storage&Backup>Manage Storage, tap your device name then be sure that camera roll is turned on in Backup Options.
    Users should always sync photos to a computer to archiving.  icloud is not totally reliable, depending on how the user has the settings.
    If you are converned about your laptop breaking down, remember that performing regular backups is as important as carrying a spare tire in your car.

  • Photo Orientation on Windows platforms

    I am so sick of flipping and turning my pictures every time I transfer them to my pc. Is Apple going to address this issues anytime soon?

    As I said, the orientation of photos is set in the EXIF data of the photo itself. Whatever you use to view the photo, whether it be Windows Explorer or some other program, should obey the orientation data and display the photo whichever way up it was taken.
    Picasa for Windows is written correctly and shows photos correctly. It is Windows that ignores the EXIF data, and as Microsoft make Windows, who else's problem could it be?

  • 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...

  • Slideshow photo order problem

    How do I fix the problem with slideshow photo order?

    What problem with slideshow photo order?
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on eight different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.

  • Filter by photo orientation

    How can I filter by photo orientation (i.e. portrait versus landscape) within the currently shown collection or folder?

    Okay, sort by aspect ratio, then select all the images of the group you're interested in (click and shift-click) and then make them fiterable. Either add a flag or a color, or make a keyword (portrait or landscape, perhaps), or just add them to a quick collection.

  • Can't slideshow photos on mass memory N97

    Hi,
    I have copied many photos to the mass memory (N97) hoping I can view them whenever I need. I have been struggling but so far couldn't figure out how to slideshow photos stored on the Mass memory?
    Since the phone memory is pretty limited, I avoid copying or storing photos there and use the folder Images on mass memory instead.  I am not even able to use screen slide to flip through the photos and of course no thumbnail so I have to manually open and close each photo!!!
    Any suggestions will be most welcome and appreciated.
    Regards,
    Ahmed

    Are you viewing them through the gallery or the file manager? File manager will not allow you to swipe or play slideshow. You do that in the Picture Gallery or the Nokia PhotoBrowser application.

  • No FULL SCREEN option for slideshow photos?

    When creating a new project in iDVD, there only seems to be two screen size options: 4:3 ratio or 16:9 ratio. Is there not some way of selecting FULL SCREEN? As all my digital photographs are 4:3 ratio, that is what I selected.... but there are big chunks of black screen all around all my slideshow photos in the finished iDVD. Very annoying!!!!

    Turning off the TV safe area is to prevent parts of the images from being lost, which is not the issue here. The problem I'm having is that there there are black bars around the entire displayed image. I believe this is called windowboxing. Letterboxing has black bars at top and bottom of screen, pillarboxing has the black bars at the left and right of screen. It's all to do with the ratio of the photographs.
    My photos were all taken with a digital camera and are 4:3 ratio. I want the images to display FULL SCREEN. They are not doing this - not on a TV monitor - and not on a computer monitor!!! Is windowboxing hard-wired into the iDVD themes? This can't be right. PLEASE HELP!!!
