Suggestion for small photo feature

I just got myself a nano and I think that the thumbnails of my photo albums on the iPod is a neat feature.
One thing is that while the display isn't any bigger, I think it is a waste to use space on a black background when viewing a picture that is taller than it is wide.
It is quite easy to turn the iPod 90 degrees while viewing the images, so a really neat feature (in my oppinion) would be an option in iTunes to turn the thumbnails of all images that are taller than they are wide 90 degrees before putting them on the iPod!
Sincerely,

Hi David,
Thanks for your suggestion, but my point is that I would like to have them turned properly in My Documents.
By default all photos in "My Documents" are copied to the iPod. This is very convenient for many, since this is where they keep their photo albums.
From you photo album you would of course like to have your pictures rotated so that up is up.
On your iPod, however, it is not so important how you need to turn the iPod (for me at least).
What is important (still for me) is that you only have 176 x 132 pixels to display your thumbnail. If the image is transferred 'standing up' you will only be using 132 x 99 pixels and thus I would prefer to have all images be rotated on the iPod, but not on the PC.
The convenience of having iTunes copying the images automatically from the photo album disappears if you have to maintain a separate copy of your photoalbum targeted specifically for the iPod.
Does this make sense?
Sincerely yours,
/morten

  • Interested in other people's suggestions for a good feature

    Hi, I'm Kerstin and I'm 2 years old. I li've in Cebu, Philippines, but I'm Swedish (originally from the wonderful city of Uppsala). I'm in the second term of my filmmaking degree at the International Academy of Film and Television[url="http://www.filmschool.ph">(IAFT)[/url]. Busy researching for my screen writing class. I'm interested in other peoples suggestions for a good feature. Always good to get together with like-minded folk.

  • Where can i make a suggestion for a mail feature on a future update?

    I was looking for somewhere to make a suggestion for a future mail feature on the iphone, but couldn't find a place to do it.
    It would be useful to be able to set mail fetching as manual in the evening and timed during the working day so my evenings aren't disturbed by work emails.
    What do you reckon Apple? A feature for the next iOS update?

    You can turn off the mail notification sound each night if you like.

  • Fill screen with zoom for small photo sizes (as in slideshow)?

    Front facing iPhone 4S camera sized photos are too small in iPhoto. Is it possible to set a default to fill screen with zoom for all photo sizes (as in slideshow)? Seems like the old iPhoto worked like this.

    That's what I was afraid of!  I wish it would still scale photos to fill the window also if they're smaller  than the window size (not just 100%), like it used to in older versions of iPhoto. Especially irritating, since the problem photos are from an Apple product, the front facing camera of the iPhone4s.  I already added my complaint to "feedback".
    Thanks anyway.

  • Do you offer quantity pricing for small photo books?

    I want to print 100 to 200 small photo books. 20 pages, plus cover. Do you offer quantity discounts? Thanks.

    This is not apple you are talking to.  You need to contact Apple to answer your question.

  • Oracle VM suggestions for small firm.

    We're a small IT services firm that's looking to expand it's virtual farm.  While we're VMware certified, it's price point is pushing us out in favor of something else.  For the last year, we have standarized on Oracle Linux so naturally Oracle VM is the next logical choice.  We want to create a VM farm using Solaris as our SAN and Oracle VM as the hypervisor.  Any suggestions to get our feet wet on a minimum budget?
    Joe

    Joe, I would suggest to start by reviewing the documentation, the requirments and design options are well documented. As well as a SAN you will need a NFS service. Also, if you are going with OVM x86, will not be able to use Solaris as the OVM server or OVM Manager, but guest support for Solaris is there.  Try setting up a lab with two physical hosts running OVM server to create a pool and a third small machine to run the OVM Manger server (the OVM manager can be on in a VMware VM), I suggest 8 GB RAM for the OVM Manager. You may want to roll out the OEM plug in for OVM to get support for roles and other advance features.
    Here's a good white paper for you to walk through:

  • Suggestion for a new feature

    There are some members of this community (Templeton Peck, for example) who spend a considerable amount of time scouring the forum for off-topic posts and offering guidance as to more appropriate venues to post questions and find information, usually including links to third-party forums and other useful information. While I really appreciate the service these people provide, others often misconstrue their intentions. Sometimes the only thanks they get are accusations of List Mommery.
    I'd like to suggest that Apple add a feature to the forum software to provide the same kind of service in a more systematic way. Since posts are already parsed to identify "bad words" and replace them with "xxxx," this could also be used to identify posts about third-party products, and when a post appears to pertain to one of those products, the response page could contain a notice that says something like the following:
    We noticed that your post appears to reference [name of third-party product]. If you are indeed experiencing problems with this product, you might find the following of interest: [links to forums and other information resources provided by the vendor and/or independent discussions on Yahoo, etc.]
    The list of links and resources could be provided by users like us through a Third Party Products topic in the forums so users can, hopefully, find them before they post questions here that would be more appropriately addressed by those other forums or knowledge bases. This topic would be for posting resources only, not discussing problems, so it would have to be heavily moderated.
    Thoughts?

    Hi David
    This ... (proposed)... topic would be for posting resources only ...
    This is already available through the search facilities of any browser. I have answered the odd query by doing just that.
    Apple Discussions does not have to be a one-stop shop.
    And would people use it as you plan, given the number of hardware and software queries that are posted here, ( but then, as there are an unusually high number of 'off forum' postings posted here I think most of them are intentionally mischievous.)

  • Need suggestion for small USB/FW camera for chat

    I have an old (Tiger, PPC) laptop. My wife has an old (Panther, PPC) mini. I'm going on a trip and want to use Skype or iChat to be able to see the kids when we talk. Can someone suggest a camera USB/firewire camera which would be good for this purpose? I don't need too many fancy features but it would be nice if it weren't big and heavy (since I'll be traveling with mine). If it's on a flexible stick or mounts to the top of the monitor/laptop screen, that would be great. I see a bunch on Amazon but it's not clear which work with Panther/Tiger, which have Mac drivers, etc. Thank you!
    Mike

    Hi,
    Yes and no (Again)
    Any Camera is going to have to suit your Mac and it's input ports.
    iUSBCam Utility only works for iChat.
    It was originally designed to get the External iSight working on G3 computer less that 600Mghz.
    Very quickly they added in the USB 1.1 camera option (At a push you could get a USB 1.1 camera to work n a G3/450Mghz processor as well)
    It only works for iChat though. Or rather it is need for iChat as it manipulates the video from the camera into something iChat will accept.
    I am not that sure if the current version of Skype will work with an older Camera.
    If it does it will still need a Mac Driver for it if you only have USB 1.1 port on your computer.
    There are two main Third Party Drivers out there for this (If the camera Manufacturer does not supply a Mac Driver)
    Macam
    and IOXperts
    The IOXperts site does list a Firewire Driver for earlier OS versions (As it was not included originally) the OS has Firewire driver form about OS 10.2
    They also state on their Site some restriction and workaround are needed for certain apps.
    Summary.
    The same info about camera types and Drivers still applies in the broadest sense.
    You will not need the iSUBCam thing for Skype.
    However I have not used Skype in some while and don't know if they still support USB 1.1 cameras.
    NOTES
    In theory as Skype does not produce such good a Video Pic as iChat it uses less processor power to create the Video stream.
    However strangely this can have positive effects in lower Spec Machines as they can then produce a coherent Stream rather than something that breaks up due to their Processor not keeping up.
    You seem to mention that you have Laptop running Tiger and the specs suggest this is a G4
    What is the Mac Mini's processor.
    Panther itself is not the limiting factor.
    It is Input ports and availability of cameras to suit that.
    Any G4 processor is going to let you have one to one chats - subject to the Internet Access at each end (Hotels can be a nightmare).
    For the points

  • New Ipad User looking for some good CRM suggestions for small business

    Hello All,
    I am a new (and satisfied) Apple Ipad2 user.  I am the sales rep for a small business that is in the health care field.  I am looking for a good CRM program for the following reasons and I am wanting to know if there is a particular program that can provide any of these things for me:
    Ability to put in all of my customers information.  Seperate folders for each.
    Ability to add information to customer folders/files based on recent phoen conversations or actual on-site visits.
    Ability to set a reminder of when to call back on that customer to see status of his/her patient that was fit with our product.
    Ability to allow other members of the company to check in on this information as well.
    A little background, we are a small company in the health care field.  We have 90 customers currently and we are growing at a steady pace.  I would like for my upper management to look at the CRM at any point and see what is going on with each customer.  If I sell a product to Customer A, then I would like a reminder to pop up 6 months from now when that patient will be ready for another product.  I would also like to be able to update a customer file so that management can see when I called on a customer, etc.
    I appreciate everyone's input as I have never utilized a CRM program.  I am currently using Dropbox for all of this right now, but it seems like a CRM would be more organized,
    Thank you,
    --Ryan

    HI Ryan,
    Did you find an app for CRM, one thing that I'm also curious about, you may need to find one that is HIPPA compliant.

  • UPS suggestions for small office

    I have four Mac Pro workstations and recently experienced a power outage. Two designers lost about an hours work each. Finally decided to bite the bullet and buy UPS systems for all the workstations. Any suggestions?
    All are Mac Pro stations with 26" LCD monitors, external 500g hard drives (one station has 3 backup 1 terabyte drives for video). I only need these to run 15-30 minutes after an outage to save the files.
    Any recommendations would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Insure that you are running off a circuit that can handle the load. Adding 4 UPS of 1500VA won't help, and to have 20-30 minutes, I went with an extra battery pack which added 1 hr (now have 75 minutes but there are times when even 15 minutes isn't enough, and 40 minutes was more realistic).
    But you probably want to look at something that would cover patch into your electrical circuit(s) more than just add stand alone units for each. That would be cheaper and easier, under $2k, but a large rackmount that would provide 3000VA costing $8k and up (more like $12k) is what I would contemplate.

  • Suggestions for Preview app features (Snow Leopard)

    There's lot's to like in the new Preview app, but I'd like a few more things:
    1. Ability to edit and reorder Tables of Contents.

    Exactly!
    If Apple was not interested in feedback for improving products, then the feedback pages make no sense whatsoever. If you think they're just for bug reporting, then why isn't the page titled "Product Bug Reports," and why are four of the seven items in the Feedback Type not in any way bug related?
    What I think is irrelevant. I'm just repeating the message.

  • Suggestion for new Mail feature

    It would be great to be able to file emails to folders by using a button on the toolbar, or a keyboard shortcut, that would open a text box in which you could type the name of the folder you want to file the email.
    (Also, it's too hard to find the link on the Apple support site to send product feedback.)

    Right click, or ctrl click on any mail. "Move...".
