Unable to use my landscape orientation photo as a wallpaper

Hello all,
Having a quite weird issue over here. When i want to change my wallpaper, it wont let me select the pictures which are in landscape orientation. If i select one it will only show me the blue background... it works perfectly for my photos that are in portrait orientation. Anyone have an idea ? the camera i used for taking them is Nikon D70s
very big thanks

nope, all photos are straight out of the camera and jpeg. there is one thing i think that might be related, this camera as a orientation detector in it and it generate a exif information to tell which orientation the picture is taken in. Im unsure of what influence it could play and have no idea how to fix this without editing every pictures. I would really like to not have to edit all of these pictures manually because we have thousands of them.

How do I use one of my photos as my wallpaper from the iPhoto app?

Hi, As the heading says - How do I use one of my photos as my wallpaper whilst using the iPhoto app please.

Obvious to you and me who are paying attention, but actually, if you look through the post topics, many people confuse iPhoto for iOS with iPhoto for the Mac.

Publising Error Unable to use iWeb to post photos

I had no problem posting my images to my web page using iphoto ie
http://homepage.mac.com/michaelcampbellphoto/Menu172.html
But since upgrading to te latest and greatest ! I have not been able to publish my images I have tried a dozen times and each time I get the message that there was a PUBLISHING ERROR and each time it indicates a different file .
Frankly I wish i could go back to the old system that worked. Since I use this as a tool in my photo business to show my customers proofs, it is very frustrating. CAN ANYONE HELP???
Thanks

MCC...
"and each time it indicates a different file"... when this happens in the podcast publishing realm, it's because of a preference file corruption problem. Quicktime Kirk is right about the usual suspects on the photo side, but your comment about it being a different file makes me think it's something else.
Try this...
Close iWeb
follow this path
hard disk/users/username/library/application support/iweb/DOMAIN
open the domain file by holding down the CONTROL key and clicking on it ONCE
you'll get a new window pop up, select SHOW PACKAGE CONTENTS
find a file that is named something like "assets.yourusername.plist"
Yourusername is the account you use on your local mac. When you find this file, throw it away.
Open iWeb and republish. Also... don't use the mac for anything else while publishing, take your idisk off the desktop if it's on, and go to system preferences/energy saver and set both slide bars to NEVER. Also, while you're in system preferences, set your SCREEN SAVER to never. Finally, while your in system preferences, go to .MAC and set your idisk syncing to OFF.
iWeb is a bandwidth and CPU hog. The only time I get those progressive error messages that show me a different file is messed up each time, is when I'm using the computer while publishing, my screen saver or energy saver is on while publishing, or that preference file is messed up.
Hope this helps.

Hi Jdentremont,
Lync client gets user photos by first querying the Address Book Web Query (ABWQ) service on the server, which is exposed through the Distribution List Expansion web service. The client receives
the image file and then copies it to the user's cache to avoid downloading the image each time it needs to be displayed. The attribute values returned from the query are also stored in the cached Address Book Service entry for the user. The Address Book Service
deletes all cached images every 24 hours, which means that it can take up to 24 hours for new user images to be updated in the cache on the server.
To troubleshoot your problem, please follow the steps below:
1. Navigate to
“X:\share\1-WebServices-1\ABfiles\000000000\000000000” folder. (ABS file share)
You should see some photo files in this folder as the following screenshot.
2. Delete all the files in this folder.
3. On test PC, delete local cache files.
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
4. Sign-in Lync with the test account.
5. Go back to the ABS file share, check if there is any Photo file in the folder.
Best regards,
Eric

Bring up Control Center. Do that by swiping up on the home screen starting down just above the home button.
Rotation lock is on the bottom row, the second icon from the left (just to the right of the flashlight).

Win Elements 7 won't print in landscape orientation

O.K. my PSE 5 will print in landscape orientation along the length of roll paper with an Epson Stylus 7600, but no matter what combinations I use with PSE 7, and making sure that at all stages the landscape icons/buttons are selected, PSE 7 won't print in anything else than portrait orientation and the image on the print page shows that, as does the print preview if I go to print. What is the issue here? I have tried deleting and reinstalling PSE 7 and also deleting the printer preferences at start up but this has no effect on the problem. I can edit in PSE 7, save the file, then reopen and print with PSE 5 with no problem, but that is not the point. I am using Win XP with 2G of ram and as pointed out, it works fine with PSE 5 with all my photo files.

Are you sure tht settings used re same in PSE5 & PSE7... Are you using Organizer or Editor for Printing?

Portrait oriented photos are rotated in Instant Movies

When I create an Instant Movie in Premiere Elements 11 for Mac, any stills that are included that are shot in portrait orientation get rotated 90 degrees to the left and are diplayed on their sides during the movie. They display correctly in the organizer and when viewed in Preview, but the act of putting them in an Instant Movie flips them on their sides. I've looked through all the settings and preferences that I can find to look for a way to prevent this from happening, but I haven't found it. I can go into the timeline and then flip the photos back one at a time, but what a pain.

Columnar
What do your computer resources look like? I know you are running Premiere Elements 11 Mac, but how much installed and available RAM and free hard drive space?
and
What orientation are these images when viewed at their hard drive save location?
I am strictly an Elements Windows user, but basically Premiere Elements 11 Windows and Mac operate the same. There are differences.
For this test, I used Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit, dual core, 3.2 GHz, 8 GB installed RAM, about 6 GB RAM available, and about 1 TB free hard drive space.
I took 17 photos (sized 3000 x 4000 - 4000 x 3000 pixels) into a 1080i30 project and applied the Instant Movie Celebration. Ten of the 17 were portrait oriented 3000 pixels width and 4000 pixels height and 7 of the 17 were landscape oriented 4000 pixels width and 3000 pixels height. The photo orientation was not changed in the resulting Instant Movie. So, under those conditions I cannot invoke a basic flaw in Premiere Elements 11 Windows Instant Movie even when using pixels dimensions beyond the limits of the project settings.
Where does that leave us....to rule in or out....
1. Pixel Dimensions which are oversized for the project can cause problems even in Premiere Elements 11 depending on computer resources. As an experiment, could you resize one or twenty and see if that makes a difference in the portrait rotation even though I have no evidence for that being a factor in my Windows model today.
2. The Instant Movie and Premiere Elements media trace back to what is viewed at the hard drive save location for the photos. What does that look like?
3. I have no evidence that the 4:3 photos in a 16:9 project are at issue; neither 1 to 17 oversized for the project photos being the issue if all that is on that Timeline is combo of 3000 x 4000 and 4000 x 3000 photos. How did you make sure evaluation of the issue?
a. Did you take 20 of those 3000 x 4000 photos into a new project and apply the same Instant Movie to them and ended up with them all rotated? Or did you just remove 1 to 20 of them from the existing Timeline, leaving the landscape oriented ones and those .mov videos as is? Did you find any difference in this matter if your Timeline was without the video included?
Just some thoughts for now as I think about this some more.
Looking forward to your follow up.

Add On...What computer resources did you have for your Premiere Elements 7 where you seem to be saying that you used 4000 x 3000 - 3000 x 4000 photos under similar circumstances as now and had no problems. Assumed a Windows experience.

How can I change one section of the document to a landscape orientation and not the whole document?

How can I change one section of the document to a landscape orientation and not the whole document?

Page Setup, including page orientation, is done in the File menu. The setting applies to the whole document. As Peter says, you can rotate the contents of a page (not including the text layer of a word processing document).
As an alternative, you could use Numbers, where Sheets are empty canvases onto which you may place images, charts, tables and text boxes, and where page orientation may be set for individual Sheets. The main tradeoff is that you lose many of the built-in word processing and page layout features of Pages.

Users are unable to see their own profile photo although everyone else can see it in Lync 2013 client

We have Lync 2013, Exchange 2010 and several AD
servers in mixed mode 2003/2008.
All user are unable to see their own profile photo
either in the main Lync window, in the settings or in a chat although other user can see that their photo is there and displaying. The user experiencing the issue can go open Outlook 2013 client and will see their photo displaying correctly in the file menu
(and elsewhere) here.
I have confirmed this happens with any new users I set up as well. We have gone through a fair amount of troubleshooting with other Lync photo issues and simple fixes such as deleting the SIP cache folder etc proves to be ineffective.
Our Cs-ClientPolicy Global is set to websearchonly.
We have "Replicate this attribute to the Global Catalog" set
for the ThumbnailPhoto attribute in AD.
We are also forcing photos from AD only (or no photo) by setting the following:
"Set-CsClientPolicy -Identity PhotosControl -DisplayPhoto
PhotosFromADOnly"
and finally we are importing the photo in ad using this PS command:
"Import-RecipientDataProperty -Identity "Test User"
-Picture -FileData ([Byte[]]$(Get-Content -Path "C:\pictures\testuser.jpg" -Encoding Byte -ReadCount 0))"
The pictures being uploaded are under 10KB in size.
I have followed many threads and will provide any information I can to help find the problem. Thank you in advance.
EDIT: I have also tried the following but with no success: https://knowledge.zomers.eu/misc/Pages/How-to-fix-your-photo-not-showing-up-in-the-Lync-client.aspx

Not able to print pdf files into landscape orientation

I am working on a R12 imnplementaion where I have to print labels on Zebra printer in landscape orientation using acroread through PASTA printing. Oracle Application uses xml publisher to generate these pdfs. All the printouts come in portrait orientation even I choose landscape. I have used acroread version 5 and 9.3.3. Can someone help me on this? I have used below syntaxes:
I was using
acroread -toPostScript -pairs -shrink -landscape BTLYOMSHIPLABEL_3479320_1.PDF BTLYOMSHIPLABEL_3479320_1.PS |lp -d label
and It was not working.
I found a hit on metalink and it says that we should not use –pairs in the command line. If I remove –pairs, then we can’t pass {inline} {outline} parameters. Then I have tried all the below commands:
cat BTLYOMSHIPLABEL_3479320_1.PDF |acroread -toPostScript -landscape |lp -d label
cat BTLYOMSHIPLABEL_3479320_1.PDF |acroread -toPostScript -shrink -landscape |lp -d label
Thanks & Regards

Hi Swadesh,
Try using the -rotateAndCenter option.
cat A.pdf | acroread -toPostScript -shrink -rotateAndCenter | lp -d <PRINTERr>
OR
acroread -toPostScript -pairs -shrink -rotateAndCenter A.pdf - | lp -d <PRINTER>
Let me know if this helps.

Word 2007 mail merge : problem with mixed portrait and landscape orientations

Hi there,
I have a 3 pages document Word 2007 file
This is a mail merge I want to export in PDF using Adobe Acrobat Printer,
then send "big" PDF to printing.
page 1 is PORTRAIT
page 2 is PORTRAIT
page 3 is LANDSCAPE
In PDF pages 1 and 2 are perfectly fine, inside an A4 format (width=210 height=297mm or something)
but for page 3, system changed to a "double" sized page (A3 width=297 height=420) and printed my stuff at the 1st top middle of big page.
So I have a big "double" sheet, oriented PORTRAIT, with my stuff in 1st half, and a blank in 2nd half.
It seems that system did not rotate the page... and just put the stuff into a bigger sheet to "solve" at best.
I would like the same size of paper (A4) but in landscape : width=297 height=210
I have already seen many PDF with mixed portrait and landscape orientations, so what's the thing ?
With my advanced thanks,
And greetings from Paris, France !

Some questions:
Which version of office were you using before? 2003?
Are the data files on a network, or on your local machine? If they are on a network, can you make a copy of one of them on your local machine and try again?
Can you open the files directly in Excel? What extension do they have (.xls, or something else?) I am wondering whether access to other file types has been left blocked on your machine but is allowed on your colleague's machine.
Are you just opening the mail merge main document and seeing this message? If so, do you see the same thing if you start with a new document and try to connect to one of these data sources?
Can you confirm that the message is about Access even though you are trying to connect to an Excel file?
(Also, office 2007 has some new stuff - that let's you specify that certain folders are "trusted" . I don't think that ever affected MailMerge but it may be as well to make sure that your documents and data sources are in trusted locations).
Also worth trying to start Word in "Safe mode" - see, e.g. http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/word-help/work-with-office-safe-modes-HP010140792.aspx

PDF with Portait and Landscape Orientation act differently between pages

Hi,
I have issue when I'm trying to have a landscape orientation in a PDF with another portrait page.
All I want to do is have a small page which indicates instructions on the form because it is a form builder, once the form is created by the user the landscape page gets hidden.
My issue here is that when I set a masterpage to landscape it makes it different to switch between pages.
I can't see more than 1 page at a time, just like it can't show a landscape and portait orientation together in the screen.
I have another form with landscape and portait together and it works fine, but this form doesn't stay normal... There must be something I'm missing...
It is annoying that I can't have more than one page in the screen, once I hit the bottom or the top of the page it switches automatically to the other page.
Please help me on this, I'm trying to figure out what is causing this bug..

Hi,
I haven't used form builder, but do you still have a viewState, try adding the following line in the docReady event of the form
event.target.viewState = { pageViewLayoutMode:2 };
This has the same effect as setting Enable Scrolling on the View ... Page Display menu.
A value of 1 would give you the single page view.
Regards
Bruce

Cfreport landscape orientation?

Running ColdFusion 8. We're using the cfreport tag to bring up reports designed in coldfusion report builder. They were designed in landscape orientation. We have cfreport's format set to flashpaper. when the report is brought up on screen it shows in portrait and prints in portrait. if the cfreport format is changed to PDF, it gets brought up landscape and prints in landscape.
We want to be able to show reports in flashpaper, but have it in landscape orientation by default. Is this possible? Why does cfreport not have an orientation attribute like cfdocument has? Right now users will have to change the printing settings everytime to change it to landscape; this is quite a hassle. Why can't cfreports be set to landscape through code?
or, if they can, how can I do this? Thanks...

I suggest just creating another CFR with the other orientantion. If you created the CFR in landscape, and say you took full advantage of the width with where you placed all your elements, how could you expect all elements to fit when the orientation changes?
