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!

I made an album in iPhoto and when it plays through the "slideshow", heads are cut off in some of the pictures. How do I fix this?

When running a slideshow from an album it will not run properly if the photos are sorted manually. Sort them by any of the other options, title, date, rating, etc. and it will play correctly.
Send a report of the problem to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.
If you must sort them manually create the slideshow in the slideshow mode in iPhoto, not from an album.

Characters are cut off when they don't fit in the pdf report output.

Hi All,
I understand that Forms 6i and Oracle 9 iAS have been de-supported for years. Meanwhile we do still run a small application in the 9 iAS environment.
We have forms and reports running on Windows 2000 server, I am able to successfully clone the same 9 iAS from Windows 2000 to a Virtual Server Windows 2003 x32 and all runs fine, the only problem is that the fonts in the pdf reports are larger in the new Windows 2003 environment as compared to the original Windows 2000 and characters are cut off when they don't fit in the pdf report output in 2003 env.
Any advice is most appreciated.
Thanks.

Most Iphone photos are cut off when using any app (ie CVS, Shutterfly etc). Is there any way to prevent this?

From what I've read cut off photos are due to iPhone not being 3:2 ratio, but what can I do to fix this? I take all of my photos on my iPhone and printing them out is ALWAYS a disappointment and I feel like my pictures are useless.

If you go to Walmart they have a specific app to print your photos from your iPhone.
Also with other stores they have good systems to print out photos from smart phones and iPhones now a days. And yes by official kiosk I meant any store with a photo printing machine, because if you print at home, size adjustments and all that are very complicated...unless you are like a professional perhaps...

Long Response fields when downloaded as a detailed view PDF of a single response are cut off

When a field in a form runs more than one line, the field is converted into a single line scrolling box when exported as a PDF for a single detailed view. It is readable by scrolling, but is cut off when printing it out, making hard copies useless.
Is their some formatting option I am missing? Can a field be expanded vertically?

Is the field a "multi-line" text field (its the second icon on the Add Item toolbar in the Design tab)?
If it is you can just make the field bigger by dragging the lower right corner.

Please Help...My photos are cut off in my slideshow

Hello,
I am making a slideshow using IMovie. I am using photos from IPhoto. When I drag them to the strip and then play my show, many of the photos are cut off. You can't see the whole photo. Example, my daughter is on a balance beam and you can only see her legs and the beam. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated. Do I need to adjust all of my photo sizes? (Hope not, this slideshow has hundreds of pictures) Do I need to adjust something with the slideshow?
Thank you in advance for you help.

Is there a way to do that for all the pictures at once?
You can either set the Project Preference to automatically use the "Fit" option when new images are added to a project. However, to change the rest of the images already added, you would have to select the image you already corrected, press Command-C to copy the information to temporary memory, select all other images, and then use the "Paste Adjustments > Crop" Edit menu setting to copy the current "Crop" setting to all selected images at once.
BTW-what is Kens Burns?
It adds a "motion" effect to still images. I.e., you can select a start and stop scaled/position view and the application will interpolate "in between frames" to create the motion effect.

Pictures in e-mail are cut off on the right side.

some pictures in e-mail are cut off on the right side. When I zoom out the text gets smaller but the picture stays the same

Sounds like the webpage you are on isn't optimized for devices with touch screens. I would suggest attempting to use a different web browser such as atomic browser or any of the other ones in the App Store. Otherwise you may have to resort to using a Mac/PC to do your homework.

My photos are OK in the organizer, but the portrait photos are cut off from the top or bottom when u

My photos are OK in the Organizer, but the portrait photos are cut off at the top or bottom when used in a slide show. I have checked the "Crop to Fit" portrait selection but it makes no difference. I have Version 9 of Elements.

Hi,
I suggest that you try unchecking both of the crop options - landscape & portrait.
To re-create your situation, I had to check the crop for landscape pictures option.
I prefer to have control over any cropping so I tend to crop each image first before creating the slide show.

Sorry, but I don't know anything about that app.
I did go to their Web site and I see they have a support link. Perhaps you can get help there or in their forum.
If you are OK with a DVD with a basic menu, you could try the Share>DVD option in FCP.
Good luck.

When starting maximized, tabs are cut off on top and show properly only upon restore/maximize

When starting FF4 RC1 maximized, tabs ("tabs on top" mode) are cut off on top. To restore their normal display, you restore and maximize the window again.

After a bit of searching: solved by disabling TooManyTabs 1.3.2 extension.

I am trying to use my iPhoto pictures as my screen saver on my mac book air (lion)... however many of the pictures heads are cut off. How do I fix this without the pictures looking distorted?

I am trying to use my iPhoto pictures as my screen saver on my mac book air. Many of the pictures' heads are cut off. How do I get the pictures to fit the screen properly without the pictures be distorted?

Open the screen saver control panel. Right above the preview window there's a popup menu. You'll probably want to set it to "Fit to screen" so the pictures will be resized to show on the display.

When I print a selected area of web page, it doesn't fit to the paper. The end of each page are cut off. Is there any solution?

When I print a selected area of web page, it doesn't fit to the paper. The end of each page are cut off.
I'm very sure my printer is set cirrectly.
Can't Firefox shrink to fit when I want to print a selected area of web pages?
This has never occurred in IE.

File >Page Setup -- check your margins, I have set size to 85% which is probably left over from some problem. Also check your printer that it is correctly set to the size of the paper.

When selecting "bookmark this page" the location select window right side and bottom are cut off, no visible buttons

After I select "bookmark this page" from the bookmarks menu, and then select "show all the bookmarks folders" with the pulldown arrow, the bookmarks folder list appears but the right side and the bottom are cut off so that no buttons are showing. Trying to resize the window does not work. Double clicking on the desired folder selects the folder name for editing, however, the caption at the top says "bookmark saved" and sometimes it is actually where I would like it to be added.

After finding that I did not have a chrome folder, or userchrome.css file, I installed ChromEdit Plus. Through this app I was able to create a chrome folder and the userchrome.css file using the information from finitarry. The problem still existed. I then edited userchrome.css changing the values to "min-width:800px !important; min-height:800px !important; " The results were; same problem, just bigger. This code changes the folderview pane in the add bookmarks window. The problem is the pane expands larger than the window. Let me see if I can clairify, When you select "bookmark this page" the add bookmark "window" opens. to open the folderview pane, click on the down arrow to the right of the folder pulldown menu. The window is not expanding to contain the pane correctly and pushes all the other controls off the screen.

Sides of Keynote presentation cut off when exported to iDVD

Hi,
I have a keynote presentation with the slides set to 800X600 that I am trying to burn to a DVD. I am able to burn fine but when it plays on my DVD player and CRT Samsung TV, the sides of the slides are cut off so that the first and last letters of many lines are not viewable. I also tried on a friend's TV with the same results The DVD looks fine when playing on my iMac but it's widescreen.
I first tried exporting the keynote presentation as a quicktime movie set to full quality 800X600. The next time I exported to iDVD which first exported to a quicktime movie with a size of 720X540. I thought that would fix it but that presentation also has the sides cut off. The iDVD project is using a standard 4:3 aspect ration. Should I try a widescreen project or won't that make more of the slide disappear. Any help would be much apprecitated.

Your problem is that while on a monitor, you can see the entire picture. Any DVD player connected to a standard television is going to show, at most, 90% of the image...some may only show 80%. This is due to something called Overscan on televisions. To account for this overscan, you have to make sure that as you're creating your presentation, you have nothing near the edges.
A good rule of thumb is to create an area that's 80% of the size of your presentation (in 4:3 resolutions, widescreen, you only have to worry about the right and left) and, as you're creating, keep dropping this shape onto your presentation slides to make sure you're inside it. Then, you'll be pretty sure that even on the worst televisions, all you information will show.
