Slideshow theme "Shatter" cuts off photos

I'm trying to make a slideshow in iPhoto and then eventually export it to iDVD. I'm wanting to use the theme "Shatter" however it is cutting off the photos. It seems all the other ones, except Classic, also cut part of the image. This is for a boy's soccer team. I would like something edgy and Classic is not it. Some of the images are really close so when it crops it cuts off the ball or head and no amount of cropping on my end can fix it. I've cropped images to 3x4 for TV.

Are the photos that are getting cropped portrait oriented? That theme and others are geared to landscape images so any portrait image will be cropped to some degree. Not much you can do about it.
If you're looking for a slideshow with a little snap give PhotoPresenter a try. It has over 25 animated themes many of which will not corp the images. It works seamlessly with iPhoto. You can run it in demo mode to see if it has what you're looking for.
This demo page has example of some of those themes: PhotoPresenter Animated Slideshow Themes.

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?

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.

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!

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...

Audio clips cutting off at the beginning, after replacing audio.

I have received an fla for a complex game, and have been directly replacing the audio clips in it with new ones with the same file name. The game randomly chooses themes, displaying text and a corresponding audio clip. After replacing the old files with the new ones, out of 20 audio clips, about 6 of them get cut off at the beginning. There is no discernible difference in the length of the clips, or empty space at the beginning between the original audio files and the new ones.
Is it possible that there is something happening in the actionscript that could be causing the problem? The fla calls a file calls Themes.as, this is the code in the file, case the answer is in there somewhere:

If you have not upgraded to version 7 you should do that.
If you have upgraded to Version 7, be sure to do the updates to 7.0.5
Go to the Help menu and select 'About Adobe Presenter' to see what version, if it is 7.0, to 7.0.2 you need to update it
drop down the help menu again and you will see an 'update' option.
you need to install in order - 7.0.1, then 7.0.2 then 7.0.5 - you cannot install all at once
another thing you might want to do is open the file you are working on in 7.0.5 snd save it out with a new filename in a new location to combat that pesky problem of the 'media.ppcx' file disappearing....

Why won't Apple fix this problem of iTunes Cutting off songs?

I've owned seven different ipods and three iPhones. On EVERY ONE OF THEM iTunes cuts off many songs after two or three seconds of playing. We're talking here about songs either uploaded from commercially purchased DVDs or the iTunes store. I have no bootleg music, I don't customize anything related to iTunes. I just buy music and download it into iTunes from MacBook Pro laptops that are similarly as standard as one can get. Yet when I listen to the albums of songs I've just purchased, random songs play for two seconds and then change to another song. When I've researched this issue across the Web I've found detailed complaints going back as early as 2004 and I can't believe that EVERY Apple iTunes system and device I've purchased over many years has behaved in this exact manner. What are these "Apple Support Communities" FOR is Apple fails to either correct the problems they report or, worse, even acknowledge problems that are documented by thousands of users of a wide variety of iTunes related products? I don't want to have to use a work-around or a reload or some of the other Rube Goldberg-like solutions others have suggested in these and other forums. I'm spending thousands of dollars on Apple equipment and software and I simply want the Apple iTunes devices and music that I buy to WORK AS ADVERTISED, which they don't. I just want my music to play as it is supposed to play. Why can't Apple make that happen?

That's happing to me, any solution ?

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.

Making a slideshow - top of photos being cut off

I've been trying to make a slideshow with some of my photos being in Portait mode as against Panorama and when reviewing
my slide show the top of the photo is being cut off. This appears to be for only those that are in Portrai mode.
Does anyone know how I can overcome this annoying aspect?
Alan

Make sure the slideshow setting isn't set to scale photos to fill screen.
That will create black areas on each side of the portrait photos but will not cut off the top and bottom.

Tops of Photos Cut Off in Slideshow

In a slideshow, when showing a photo that has been taken with a DSLR tilted 90 degrees (i.e., so that the long axis is vertical, such as for tall buildings), I cannot get the top of the photo to show. Even if I pull the photo down using the hand tool (with or without the Ken Burns Effect) the top of the photo is cut off. Is there something I am doing wrong or some trick, or is this a known issue with iPhoto 6.?

Thank you. I am still having trouble. Following the directions for "Setting Pan and Zoom in Slide Show" still doesn't get me what I want. I am supposed to push Burns effect then Start and place pointer/hand on screen to start shot. It asks me to drag to place I want to begin pan; then press End and drag to spot where I'd like to end. I have cropped photos so I do not use the zoom feature but when following instructions nothing happens or as in one instance I dragged to left edge of screen and wanted it to pan to right and then pressed End and dragged hand to right. The only thing that happened in Preview was a very slight movement up and down (not left to right).In another instance, Preview played two different pans over and over neither of which I had tried to create(!). I have also just tried to place hand on one end (no dragging) then clicked End and placed hand at destination...still no luck Also, when working on each photo a new slide show folder is created. I am unable to drop it into the original folder I am working with...so I am not able to use it. What am I not doing? Thank you

Pictures in slideshow and thumbnails are cut off

Hi!
I love that it's so easy to create a slideshow.
But I don't see a customizable option to not have my slideshow "fit to designated space".
I don't mind the thumbnails getting cut off (better than being resized a weird resolution) but when viewed in the slideshow, some of the people in the photos get cut off.
Is there a way to resolve this (rather than putting them all in photoshop and resize smaller so there's a border)?
Thanks every so much! This is my first time using Adobe Muse, so bear with me.

Trying using 'Fit Content Proportionally' in the New Hero field in Slideshow Options. Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Vikas

Photo subject cut off in Apple TV

I use Adobe Photoshop to manage my photos before having them sync'd to Apple TV. In many cases the subject of the photo is cut off (heads, etc) when i display them via Apple TV. Yet in screen saver mode they display just fine.
Would this having anything to do with cropping photos in Photoshop and changing their size ?
Thanks in advance for any advise ?

I'm a PC user. After my photos are processed in Adope Photoshop they are automatically uploaded via ITunes to my Apple TV. The photos are fine in Photoshop and in Apple TV screen saver, but many have heads cut off when I view photos in Apple TV.Sorry! Should have paid more attention. Certainly blows off my original thoughts. To what aspect ratio are you cropping? May I assume you the Burn's Effects turned off? From looking at my 2:3 files, it appears TV display portrait orientation with height "scaled to fit" with "keep aspect ratio" on. Landscape photos also appear to do the same so width exceeds the width of the screen. So I'm not getting any "half head" displays. On the other hand, someone else was complaining that files were sometimes rotated incorrectly possibly based on info embedded in the file by the original camera. Am now wondering if any of these photos were rotated in Photoshop and TV is scaling incorrectly based on embedded info rather than physical orientation as modified in Photoshop. Could you check on this?

Vertical Pictures Cut Off in Photo Album Page

On my photo albums page, the picture I want to use as the first picture is a vertical picture. But on the albums page, the albums are all horizontal. So when someone goes to look at my albums page, they just see these cut-off pictures with heads missing. Is there a way to change the orientation of the albums so they are vertical? Or is there a way to edit the first picture so that you can move the picture down so at least the head is showing in the horizontal view?

Hi Kara,
the only solution I can find is to drop a vertical photo into the MyAlbums page and cover the album with it (thus hiding the other head-less photo) linking that photo to the photopage.
However this will cause the effects moving the pointer over the album cover (skim, dissolve, ...) to disappear.
As far as I know albums can't be rotated and vertical photos are cut off and you can't tell iWeb not to cut them off...
Regards,
Cédric

First photo order from apple cuts off subjects head

Who is the genius at the Apple developing room who needs to crop a photo so that the subjects head is cut off? Usually when you send a picture into a photo store, they get it right the first time without exercising their creative PHOTOGRAPHER abilities. Why can't the film processors just leave the prints as is when they receive them? Well, I guess I will go elsewhere for my photo orders as the "creative" people there just have to show off their new, exciting film techniques by expanding, editing, cropping, and did I mention that the picture order I did receive looked nothing like what I sent them...UUGGHH!!! Go work at Costco or something...I think that's where I'll try next.

How do I make sure my prints are not cropped incorrectly during processing?
Each print size has its own slightly different rectangular shape, known as the aspect ratio. For example, an 8 x 10 print is proportionately taller and narrower than a 4 x 6 print. To make your image fit these different print shapes, photo labs usually enlarge the image slightly and crop out what doesn't fit.
For the best results, you should crop your images to the same aspect ratio as the print size you are ordering.

Shatter - tops and bottom of picture gets cut off

When I use this slideshow the head of subject gets cut off when the subject is
close to top of picture. I have tried re cropping but it just makes it worse. Is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
The theme is designed to work with Landscape format pics. You will have issues if you use Portrait ones.
