When I stretch (magnify) a photo it locks the screen in strech mode.

When I stretch (spread fingers) to enlarge a photo, map or text... it works justfine...but quite often it ill not unstretch it will not return to normal size.... and then when I leave the application, the screen has locked in maginfy mode.... is there some simple way to return the screen to normal???

Nothing short of a reboot (2 finger) corrects the problem..... sometimes it just happens with no action on my part....  I lay the phone down and then pick it up and wham.... magnified.....   tapping(single and double), two finger squeez... nothing corrects it.

  • HT4623 Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??

    Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??  Installed ios7 this morning. Tried to use one of my photos from camera roll as background for lock screen and I can't scale the photo to fit the screen.  Never had a problem before and now when I pinch the photo to get it to the right size of the screen, it won't stay that way. The photo is enlarged way beyond the screen size so it doesn't look right. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hello, cliffiapp4.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.  
    Resolution
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.

    I get this pop up when trying to create a photo book through the iPhoto store.  
    "Some or all of the photos you selected were downloaded from your published albums. You can only view these photos. To use them in an album or a slideshow or project, you must import them to your photo library."
    The photos I have selected have already been imported so how and why do I do it all over again?
    What do they mean by published albums?  I categorize them into photo albums for organizational purposes after I import them from my camera or phone. So why can't I put them into a book now?
    I have over 400 photos selected for a photo book for my child's graduation gift so how can I tell which photos I have to do this to?
    Please help. Any insight wouyld be appreciated.
    Confused and frustrated...

    Give this a try:  apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.

  • When i click on a photo to edit, the photo doesn't show up and the area where the photo should show up is black.  Why?

    When i click on a photo to edit, the photo doesn't show up and the area where the photo should show up is black.  Why?  I can edit some photos, whereas others I can not.

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

    - Charge the iPod for half an hour.  Then reset the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - if still not working, connect to your computer. If iTunes sees the iPod, restore the iPod.
    - If still problem, place the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod.  For recovery mod see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • When trying to edit a photo, it disappears (black screen) or screen is full of lines. Is this a bug with the latest software update?

    After updating with the latest software, when trying to edit a photo, it disappears (black screen) or screen is full of lines. If I blindly crop or edit the photo, when I exit edit mode, those changes have been made, but obviously this is unacceptable. Is this a bug with the latest software update?

  • I get this when i try to add photo to iphoto:The disk containing your iPhoto library is running low on space.

    i get this message when i try to add photo to iphoto: The disk containing your iphoto is running low on space

    1 - NEVER assume - it makes an "*** out of u & me"
    2 - for the third time - how much space do you have on the drive where your iPhoto library is located?
    If you continue to refuse to answer that simple question then no one can halp
    LN
    PS - your iPhoto library is NEVER automatically moved anywhere - to move it
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • My iphone4s does not lock the screen automatically when playing music and charging

    My iphone4s (iso5.1) does not lock the screen automatically with the condition in charging and playing music.
    System has been set to lock the screen in 1 mins.
    Everything goes fine when not in charging, the system can lock well even playing music.
    System can lock as well when all the music playing apps are closed, even when charging.
    I don't think that's my apps' problem, all my music playing apps have the same problem.
    My ipod has the exact same problem described above, I believe that's an iso system bug.

    It's not something i'm familar with but i will forward it internally for investigation. Could you please send me a PM with the IMEI of your phone and the build number? You can find these under Settings -> About phone and Settings -> About phone -> Status.

  • Ipod shuts down when locking the screen

    I used to be able to lock the screen by lightly pressing the power button. Now when I do the music is stopped. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Thanks

    This is usually an indication that your iPod's headphones are not plugged ALL the way in.  Make sure the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the plug can still be seen.  The headphone jacks on the newer Nanos are a bit tighter than in previous generations.
    Otherwise, make sure the headphone jack clean and clear of any sort debris.

  • My touch5.1.1 will not play album tracks in order.  I've turned off the shuffle function and I lock the screen when I'm walking with it, but it won't play tracks in sequence.  What can I do?

    My Touch 5.1.1. has worked just fine until recently.  I have checked to see that it is not set for "shuffle" and also that the "shake to shuffle" function is turned off.  When I walk with the device, I lock the screen (all practices I've always followed), but tracks and even multiple discs for albums constantly shuffle.  Please help!

    Quickly Triple tap the home button to de-activate VoiceOver.

  • Email stops synching after 15 minutes (when it locks the screen). Any thoughts?

    I got the Droid 2 yesterday.  Email account (syncs to corporate email) works fine until the device goes to sleep (or what ever it does after 15 minutes that locks the screen then you have to enter a PIN to wake it up again).  Even after entering the PIN, I need to go into the email application for it to synch.  Seems to me like it should sync with email irrespective of whether the screen is locked or not.
    I've run the Droid Power app and ensured sync is green
    Battery mode is in Performance mode (to ensure it would always sync)
    Email delivery is set to Data Push ON with a Fetch schedule of 15 minutes; Synch over WiFi Only is NOT checked
    I got the newest OS update this morning, but still no joy.
    Does anyone have any thoughts on what else I can try?
    Thank you,

    This may be nothing may than a simple software issue. I recommend performing a hard reset then re-enabling the sync. The steps to perform the hard reset are below:
    To reset your phone to factory settings and erase all
    the data on your phone, touch Menu > Settings
    > Privacy > Factory data reset > Reset phone.
    Warning: All data on your phone will be deleted.
    (Nothing on your memory card is deleted.)
    To reset your phone to factory settings and erase all the data on your phone,
    touch Menu
    > Settings
    > Privacy
    > Factory data reset
    > Reset phone.
    Warning: All data on your phone will be deleted.(Nothing on your memory card is deleted.)
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you lock the screen on iphone 4?

    How do you lock the screen on iphone 4 while on a call? I mute calls, activate face time and I have even called someone by accident during a call. I know there has to be a way to fix this. Please HELP!

    It locks automatically when you hold it to your head.
    If it fails to do this, then remove the case and see if it solves it.
    If it does not, then do the basics - restart, reset, restore.
    If that does not solve it, then make an appointment at the genius bar.

  • How can you lock the screen on iPhone in iOS 7 while talking on the phone?

    I am struggling to figure out how to lock the screen of my iPhone 5 during a phone call. In iOS 6, I was able to push the top "on/off" button to lock the screen. In iOS 7, I am able to do this ONLY while using the speakerphone. If I push this button while talking on the phone regularly or using a headphone, it ends the call rather than locking the screen.
    I have found that I am muting calls and disconnecting calls accidentially with my "face" while holding the phone b/c the screen is so sensitive. Does anyone know a way around this?

    I dont know of a way round this, but im having the same issue of puttig people on hold when putting the phone up to my ear.
    This was an issue with the iphone 4 years ago and apple had to do an update to cure it

    A. Only if the device is online.
    B. Only if you set up Find My Phone before the theft.
    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device.
