Small issue when viewing photos

Hi, I only got my Xperia Z2 today and I've noticed something going on when i view photos that wasn't happening earlier. When I take a photo with the camera in the camera app it's fine and looks good, but then when I go to view it by pressing the little thumbnail in the camera app the photo is always displayed in landscape and for some reason seems to dim and darken considerably after a second or two. This only happens when i view the photo in the camera app, if I exit the app and go to the photos app it works fine. Anyone know why this happens and how to change it? Is it some sort of power saving thing because I'm at around 1/3 battery? Any help is appreciated

Anytime

X2-00 spontaneous switch off when viewing photos

My daughter uses a X2-00 since about half a year. From time to time when viewing photos she made with the phone, the phone spontaneously switches off and restarts. Restart is without problem, but should not occur at all. An update to the latest software version did not resolve the issue. It's still the same photos that cause a restart.
Any ideas what might cause this issue?

Remove the battery for a couple of minutes..Insert and see if the phone switches ON..
If not, Confirm that the battery is charged.. Leave on charging for 10-15 minutes and then try switching ON while charger is connected..
If problem remains, you need to visit Nokia Care..

TS2972 when viewing photo albums thru apple tv photos show in random order. How do I get to show in sequence ?

When viewing photo albums photos show in random. How do you get photos to show in sequecne?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Before going into any depth about this have you checked that you aren't simply using the shuffle option in the slideshow settings.

Portrait photo orientation issue when viewed in slideshow

I have experienced this problem since first upgrading to 8.0. I have upgraded to 8.02, but this problem persists.
Most (but not all) of my portrait photos display incorrectly during slideshows (but display correctly otherwise). The pictures are rotated 90 degrees and are squished vertically and stretched horizontally. The result are pictures that fill a portrait oriented "frame" but are sideways, squat and stretched width-wise.
As near as I can tell, all my photos that I took with my digital cameras (all Canons of various models) have this problem, while only some photos I have received from friends have this issue. Perhaps it is an issue with iPhoto reading Canon's orientation flag? But why is it only a problem in slideshows?
I'm uncertain if this is relevant, but I've also noticed none of my portrait photos display properly when viewed via Front Row.
So far the only trouble shooting ideas I've been able to think of are:
1 - Remake my slideshows from scratch
2 - Rebuild my photo library.
Neither of these fixed my problem. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Try quitting iPhoto and trashing your iPhoto preferences file ("your username" ==> library ==> preferences ==> con.apple.iPhoto.plist) when you launch iPhoto a new default one will be created - reset any user preferences you have changed and repoint iPhoto to the library if you have moved it

Iphoto 11 spinning balls when viewing photos

Hi - We're pretty frustrated so seeking help here as iPhoto support via Apple Care has not offered a solution to our issue. We have late 2012 iMac 8mb RAM with 3.2 (or 3.4) processor.
We have 3 Nikon cameras; D80, D300S, D800.
The D800 is the newest.
Uploading from cameras into iPhoto works perfectly.
However, when viewing a particular Album that contains photos from all 3 cameras, we get spinning ball and have to wait for up to 30 seconds to go from one photo to another
The spinning ball is random BUT doesn't happen on D80 or D300S photos. Only happens on D800 photos, which makes us wonder if there is a bug in iPhoto. The D800 is supported in iPhoto.
More info: The size of the photo doesn't seem to matter, as this can happen when one is going from a large MB photo to a small one, and visa versa. It doesn't hang on particular photos, but seems to be random.
The D800 is a 35 megapixel camera if that info helps at all. The other cameras are much lower megapixels.
I don't know enough about computers to solve this myself, but iphoto support has not found the problem. I think it's a lot simplier than we think but don't know what to do next.
Apple Care iPhone support had us repair the library and even make a new iPhoto library but we got the same issue.
The album with the issue contains 173 photos, so of which are HDR. It is not getting stuck on HDR photos, but sometimes it can. Like I said, it's random.
When we put that same album into Elements12, there was no issue of spinning balls, so I also wonder if it's the size of the entire library that has something to do with this issue. (the iPhono Library contains 5,000 photos. Support confirmed that there is plenty of free memory so that is not the issue either, but we are going to have the 8mb upgraded to 16MB anyway but we don't believe this will solve anything at this point.
We really wanted to buy Aperture but wonder if we need to resolve this issue in iPhoto first....Thank you & I hope I provided enough info. I tried...-Lynn

Yes, occurs in both RAW & JPEG
Here's what we learned today: when we call up the Album in question (but does happen in other albums but trying to stick with just one for now) it is now confirmed that it's only happening with D800 photos,but doesn't matter the size of photo or whether Jpeg or Raw. Can be either/or.
BUT, once we go thru the entire album of 174 photos, the time lag is gone the second time we view the photos. (no spinning balls & can scroll rapidly thru entire album) Wouldn't this suggest not a camera issue?
If we close out of iPhoto and go back into iPhoto and to that same album, we get the spinning ball delay between some of the D800 photos as before, but also confirm that it doesn't hang up on same photos each time but hangs only on D800 photos.
One more thing that may mean nothing - The abum has 174 photos. The first 100 or so photos were shot with the D80, the next group are D300s, and the last bunch (from photo #145 to 174) are D800, so the hanging doesn't begin until #145, but might not hang until photo 150. It's random, and different each time the album is opened AFTER iPhoto is closed & re-opened. As long as the album remains opened we can even go to other albums & go back to that album & all is still fine. It's just the intial opening of iPhoto each time.
This particular album IS a "rated" album so it has that cog wheel on the album file. Because it contains all photos that my husband rated as "3-star photos", I thought maybe the "smartness" could be the issue, but he has other albums with D800 photos that aren't rated & those photos can also hang...
Hubby has gone out to shoot post-blizzard photos & we'll do as you suggested upon his return & make new iPhoto library! Thanks! Will report back!

IPod Restarts When Viewing Photos (Every 1 out of 3 times)!

When I try to view my photos (mainly doing a slide show), the IPod unit will restart. One time, the unit froze and I had to perform a manual reset. I have not seen a resolution yet in the forums. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

An Update for what it is worth, and still with no resolution. It appears that I have the auto restart issue only when I view photos and I have previously configured the slide show to turn on music using my music library on the Ipod. If I view photos and it is working ok. with the music playing in the background, and then I leave photos to go listen to my normal music library, and then I come back to viewing photos again, when I start the photo slide show at this point, this is where the Apple restart occurs. I have been able to isolate this down on both my Ipod and my wife's Ipon Nanao Special Editions. Any body else having this problem? When I turn off the background music under the photo slide show preferences, I can go on with photos all I want with no auto restart. So for now, no more back ground music in my photo slide shows.

IDcs3 export PDF issues when viewing in Preview

I appear to be having issues when exporting PDFs from IDcs3. I have drop shadows on text and objects. When i export as a PDF and view it in 'Preview', I get a shadow that extends the area of the object. Drop shadows are not defined, they just have a block blur effect.
The thing is when I transfer the file over to my MS machine, Acrobat displays the PDF perfectly. Is this a problem with Preview or is it something to do with the export PDF settings.
Cheers

Preview is not capable of handling the advance features of exported PDFs.

Quicklook (column view) crashing finder when viewing photos

My Finder is freezing when I am viewing photos in the column view. It works fine in list, cover flow, and thumbnail. Any ideas as to why the column view quicklook might be causing it to freeze?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the easy fix first: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the last three options.

N96 - poor quality when viewing photos

when taking a photo with the n96 the image quality is great when viewing it just after taking the photo, but then when i view the images through the 'photos' application the quality is terrible, really pixelated and looks as though it hasnt loaded properly or something? i find i can sort this out by going into edit, saving the photo again, then when i view it the quality is back to normal.
anybody any ideas whats wrong?

Do you mean the preview?
You have to click on the picture to open it. What you are seeing initially is a quick preview. If you leave it there for a few seconds it will "clean" itself. Or just open the picture by pressing the center select, You will see that it's not pixelated.
640K Should be enough for everybody

Issues when uploading photos to Lightroom 5

I have Lightroom 5 and a Mac computer
Uploaded photos via card reader to Computer.
Lightroom Opened but would not show previews. - said show source - would not open the previews on the imported photos
When I tried to activate the source to upload my photos - all when blank after 1 second of showing information (Photos) that were the previews. - then went blank
I stopped the process and ejected the card correctly through the finder. Thought I would try importing via image capture.
This was also a problem as the previews only showed as a flash of a second.
I also notice that for some reason Lightroom 4 keeps on opening when importing photos and not Lightroom 5 - Though Lightroom 5 opens up when I edit other photos.
Please advise
Sue

There are several reasons why Lr would not show <Source>.
- check the card reader and usb cable;
- if it is an older card reader make sure that it is compatible with the cards you are using ( I had an older one; it would take the latest SD cards physically but was unable to read them, and it would not show up in Lr "Source");
Try to import from this card reader via Mac Finder. if this works then the card reader and USB cable are fine.
There is a box in >Edit >Preferences >General tab under "Import Options", it is called <Show Import Dialog when a memory card is detected>. You might have that checked in Lr4 but not in Lr5. But this would have nothing to do with the problem that Lr5 cannot import.

Adding 'discription' space when viewing photo's in my 'Gallery'

I've posted several albums in my 'Gallery'. Until today I hadn't really worried about the description of any photo in any album. Today I added a descriptions to all the photos in one album.
Now when I go to my "Gallery" on the web and bring a photo up, then click on the 'I'...what I see in my description box is about half of what I wrote. Unlike the the text entered in the 'description box' before I published the album I'm unable to scroll when I view it on the web so about half (more or less) of what I wrote is worthless. Is there any way to enlarge the viewing box in my web "Gallery" so the complete description shows?... or be able to scroll after getting to that site?

HEY--
You're not alone. The same thing is happening to me. This is what happened: First, my computer had too many photos on iPhoto, and I couldn't download anymore, (I have a G5 and lots of memory too but it didn't matter since I have tons of pictures)and my computer would say my start-up disk was full. I tried to delete some images to no avail. So I decided to buy another hard drive. I wanted to use that one for my photo library rather than the first hard drive, so I had enough room to work with.
I still couldn't download photos to it, since iPhoto was still on my first hard drive. So, I tried moving iPhoto to my second hard drive by dragging it and placing it there. It asked where my library was, so I directed it to the location I thought it was in my Pictures folder.
This is when things started getting mixed up. It no longer was backing up my iPhoto library to my Pictures folder. Whenever it would ask me to update my thumbnail cache, it started substituing dashed lines instead of my photos in its place. Little by little, this was happening. I could still download new photos into my iPhoto Library, but some photos from the past were getting corrupted and I couldn't salvage them or see them in any way, other than the dashed lines.
Recently, I have had two weddings to edit, and I cannot see the photos for the reception of one of them after I updated the thumbnail cache again. I thought it would bring my photos back, but rahter it made them so I can't see them!
I have read the other posts about this same issue, and I am about to just take my computer into MacDocs, but rather I'd like assistance here if possible since I need this taken care of, and I pay $100 every year for MacPro, and noone was available there to help me!!!
Please... any help would be appreciated. I too nervous to move anything else, and I would like some REAL help to this issue.
Thank you in advance!

Apple TV reboots when viewing photos and selecting slideshow mode

Just purchased the A-TV, so only experience is with the 2.3 OS release. I can view my synced photos without issue, but when I select slideshow mode, the screen goes black for a few minutes and then the box reboots. The diagnostics state there is not a hardware problem, but this is hopefully not a 'feature' of A-TV. Help!

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
There could be a/some photos causing a problem, are you able to sync your photos in batches to try to eliminate this possibility.

IPhoto 08 crashes when viewing photos

Hi,
I'm using iPhoto O8. I have about 4000 photos in the library. I'm using this on an intel iMac.
All has been working fine. However, it has now decided to crash if I try to view a photo. The programme will open fine and I can see the thumbnails for the events and the thumbnails for the photos. However if I then double click a photo it crashes.
I've tried deleting the preferences file (within users>library>preferences> etc.
I've also tried rebuilding the iPhoto library (alt+apple held whilst starting iPhoto)...
However, when I tried rebuilding the library (first three options selected) the rebuild also crashes.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Edward

Download iPhoto LibraryManager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - and use its rebuild function - this creates a new rebuild library leaving your existing library alone so if it does not fix things you still have exactly what you had before to work on
