When I double click on events the pics does not open. I have to go to edit to get the pic up on the screen. I can not enlarge the photo either. I have tried to rebulid the libary

I have iPhoto 11.When I double click on an event the pics do not spread out. I just get a yellow frame around the event. This is when I double click with left finger. With right finger option is slideshow. I can not enlage a pic with double click either. I have rebuild the libary but no difference . Can anyone help me please ?

Sounds like a trackpad issue. Try changing the trackpad's settings.  Post in the appropriate Mac model forum.  If you have a mouse available try it to see if you can get iPhoto to do what you want.  This can narrow down where the problem is.

  • Double-clicking an event in iPhoto does not show thumbnails

    I set double-click event in preferences - events to shows event photos but still only see one enlarged photo when double-clicking an event.
    I would like to see the thumbnails to better edit, split event photos which are grouped inappropriately for some reason.

    While you have the one large photo displayed Look down to the lower right hand corner of the iPhoto window and slide the little slider to the left until you see then number of thumbnails you want

  • Why when I double click an image in "pictures" does it always open into Elements 10 ?

    Why when I double click an image in "pictures" does it always open into Elements 10?

      Only if you set Elements as the default application e.g. for opening all jpeg files.
    You can make file associations via the control panel.
     

  • Double clicking a new e-mail does NOT show whole e-mail

    double clicking a new e-mail does NOT show whole e-mail unless I go to forward or reply. In other words, I may see a couple sentences, then it's just blank, no scroll bar either. This gets annoying. Anybody else get this or know how to overcome this?

    Well, there is no such thing as an AOL type account in Mail. Such an account must be set up as either POP or IMAP. Nevertheless, knowing that the ISP for one of the accounts is AOL is useful because it seems that other people also have this problem with AOL -- see Chuck Coulson's and smackwell's posts in this thread.
    I don't think I'll be able to help you with the AOL account other than telling you to try rebuilding the mailbox -- select the mailbox and choose Rebuild from the Mailbox menu. Have you tried that?
    The problem shouldn't happen with the POP account, however. Do you experience the same problem with it as well?

  • When you double click on psd new instance of Photoshop opens but it doesn't open the file

    Just updated to new version of Photoshop and when I double click on a psd, a new instance of Photoshop opens but it doesn't open the file.

    If I use open from Photoshop it opens the file.  If I drag and drop into photoshop(and there is nothing open in photoshop) is opens.

  • Double click (or 2 finger touch) does not open event in iPhoto

    When I double click or 2 finger touch on an event, it does not open the event. instead, it offers "Play slideshow" or "Make key photo". Also, when within an album, a double click does not enlarge the thumbnail. I am using iPhoto 11 and OS X 10.8.4 and the track pad.

    That is not the normal way to double click on a track pad (although you can change setting in the trackpad control panel)
    Double click is two (double) clicks in quick succession
    a two finger click is "right Click" and the menu you are getting is the right click menu

  • Double click on jar file but does not launch

    My PC has windows7 operating system
    The jar file was working fine, everytime I double click it would launch, no problems
    Somehow the .jar file association was changed to open with winrar so now when I double click it does not launch and run like before, winrar opens it
    How can I change the file association back to java?

  • Cannot open files with a double click !! Trackpad solution does not work, just makes my cursor move slowly. Have not found a solution in forums. Help needed please!!

    I cannot open files by double clicking ... have looked at forums and no solution yet !!! Control click is the only way i can open files
    "If you go to System Preferences > Accessibility > Mouse and Trackpad -  You can set the speed of the double click to be much slower.   Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem. "  this solution did not work it just made my cursor move at a snails pace.
    Thanks for any help forthcoming !!!

    found this on another websites forum .... it worked
    I figured it out. Thanks everyone!
    I had to turn on my wireless mouse... And even though I wasn't using my wireless mouse and just the trackpad...I had to turn on my wireless mouse then adjust those settings...Had to turn down the speed. Then Once I shut the mouse off and started to use the trackpad again it works perfectly.
    I'm not sure why the mouse settings would change the trackpad settings but it did.

  • My IPad needs double click to access anything and does not scroll through anything

    IPad needs a double click to access anything and then does not scroll down.

    Do you need to tap (and the app/item then gets a box around it) and then double-tap ? If you do then you probably have VoiceOver (one of the accessibility features) 'on'. Try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home.
    If that doesn't turn it off then you can either turn it off directly on the iPad (you need to use a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process and 3 fingered scrolling) to go into Settings > General > Accessibility and turn VoiceOver 'off', or you can do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064

  • I just installed Elements 13. When I import images, most of them do not load as thumbnails, but rather as gray rectangles. When I double click on them, the image appears and can be edited. How do I get the thumbnail images to all appear?

    My System:
    iMac Software: OSX Yosemite v. 10.10.3
    Processor: 2.9GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory: 8GB 1600MHz DDR3

    If you are importing large numbers of images, it takes PSE a while to generate the thumbnails. So you might want to just wait while it does its thing (which can be hours if we're talking thousands of pics). If it's just  few images, select them in the organizer, then press F5 and see if that forces the  thumbnails to generate.
