Why are my photos zooming out when I set them as wallpaper?

This morning when I was setting some photos as wallpapers I noticed that they are zooming out and whenever I tried to to zoom them in it kept on going back to what it was before in the zoom out and it's not showing the whole picture as it is in my photo Gallary. I tried resetting, I tried turning off the parxell and it's still doing that. It's sorta upsetting cause I don't like my photos enlarged. It looks awful that way. Is there anyway to fix this?

  • Why do my photos zoom in when I add them to a video?

    I am not experienced at all with premiere pro at all. i have to just splice videos and photos together. My videos come out fine but when I try to add photos to this video it like zooms in or takes only a portion of the picture and adds it. Its very strange. Like I said though I do not really know Premiere Pro so work with me here if this is a dumb question X)
    Thanks, Russ

    Probably because your sequence is 1920X1080 or smaller and your images are in the neighborhood of 4000X3000 or more.
    I suggest that you just scale them down with the Scale parameter of the Motion effect. Once you do that to one of them, you can copy it, and then "Paste Attributes" on the others to make them the same size. That way you can adjust them a little later if you wish.
    The other way is to set them to "Scale to Frame Size" but that resamples them and you can't zoom back in without losing quality. Also, if they are the wrong shape (quite likely) then you will be stuck with bars on the sides.

  • Why are some photo events missing when I synch my iPad with the new iMac?

    Very confused user here.
    I've just bought the new IMac, When I connected my iPad2 to the iMac and opened iPhoto on the iMac it asked to import photos. This proceeded, but when I checked it became clear that not all the events had been imported, even though iPhoto was saying that all the photos had been imported. There doesn't appear to be any reason why certain events have been missed - no difference in title, or date. How can I make sure all the photos are imported?

    If the iPad works like the iPhone you can move photos into the Camera Roll as shown here:
    Then from there it should sync to your Mac. That's how I got the screenshot above to my iMac and into this post.
    If you have an iCloud account and Photo Stream enabled on both your iMac and iPad new photos to the Camera Roll will automatically be synced with your iMac and imported into iPhoto as long as you have the iPhoto/Photo Stream preferences set this way:
    Of course this is assuming the iPad functions similarly to the iPhone in this regard and I should think it would.

  • Why are the aps grayed out when syncing my iPhone?

    When trying to sync my wife's iphone with my iMac, the aps on her iphone are grayed out and the phone will not sync,
    even though all the aps on her phone are the same as the ones in my iMac.

    OK. So we've established that you're in Photoshop CC on Windows 7 (nothing to do with Acrobat or Acrobat Reader).
    What exactly are you trying to do in Photoshop CC? Can you outline in detail what steps you're taking and what's confusing you?

  • Why are my permissions greyed out when sharing a fat32 drive?

    I want to share a Fat32 drive between two macs on my network but the read/write permissions are greyed out. I can't reformat to ex-fat or the mac format HFS because I also want to use this drive in my TV and that only accepts Fat32 drives.
    Is there a way that I can work around this to share a Fat32 drive on my mac network?
    ...I've also tried accessing the drive using SMB as I've read about this as a suggested workaround but get an error message when it tries to mount the drive (I'm not sharing mac to windows, just mac to mac).

    any luck on this Bevymay? I have the same issue.

  • Why are cs5 updates erroring out when downloading on windows 7?

    i have just re-installed cs5 on a new hard drive. my serial number was verified as valid. when i use help > updates, it shows updates needed in all 5 app. after it tries to download them, it errors out with this generic screen:
    Some updates failed to install.
      Adobe Bridge CS5 4.0.5 Update
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
      Adobe Extension Manager CS5 5.0 Update
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
      Photoshop 12.0.4 update for Photoshop CS5
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
      Photoshop Camera Raw 6.7 Update
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
    when i click on the customer support link, it brings me to a "error: this serial number is not for a qualifying product.
    Any Help, please?

    Here is a reply I found on another thread. I went to the Manual Products update Product updates and downloaded some so-call updates but I can't open and run 'em. Adobe has proven to be a company that cares little about customers who have spent $,$$$.$$ with them over the last 15 years.  
    Another's answer:
    I have same problem. After you download updates within the Adobe Application Manager box and get that dreaded Updates failed to install...  look on lower left and click on "Customer Support" link. It will open a new window and tell you the error code.
    Do you get Error "This serial number is not for a qualifying product" | CS6, CS5.5, CS5 ?
    That's error I get. 2 chat sessions so far, neither person could figure out why, both said to use forums. Two hours later and I find no clear answer.  Best I find googling is CS5-6 is no longer supported. ...meaning if you have less than CS6, you need to manually install updates. The automatic update manager won't update for us any longer, and you need to go here and update all programs manually:  Product updates

  • Why are my Photos very poor when printed from PSE9, but fine from iPhoto.

    I have the most up to date versions of Mac OS and printer driver for Epson Stylus Photo R280.  I have tried many different print settings in PSE9, but my photos are still very grainy and poor quality.  Sometimes just a blank sheet pulls through the printer. Please help.

    Hope you choosing the correct paper type and profile settings. Also choosing the correct color management will surely help as i myself use the same printer on win as well as mac and not observing any such issues.

  • Why are my photographs losing resolution when I rotate them

    Most of the photographs are in portrait orientation, and for some reason the camera(canon 6d) stopped detecting it, so they are stored as landscape.. So I need to rotate them in Lightroom. The rotation causes them to look reaaly low resolution. This does not happen in other editing softwares.

    Rotating in LR doesn’t change the underlying image data, it is just a flag that says to display the data differently, but when you rotate the photos, the preview would need to be redone, and a low-resolution preview is the initial one you’d see until LR has a chance to compute another one, which is typically immediately. 
    If previews are not getting recomputed immediately, then your computer may be busy doing something else, or there could be a problem with your previews cache, or with LR, itself.  You can force previews to be recomputed by selecting the photos and then choosing Library (module) / Library (menu item) / Previews / Build Standard-Sized (or 1:1) Previews.  Try this and see what happens.
    What happens in Develop when you adjust something with one of these rotated images, does the preview become sharp after a few moments?

  • Why are my book pages enlarged when I send them to be printed?

       I have created a 40-some page iPhoto book that looks fine when I scan the pages prior to sending it to be printed. However, I get an email from Apple saying that the book is unreadable or unprintable. Upon looking at the PDF version of the book, I see that each page has been slightly enlarged, so that part of the image is not shown because it is outside the boundaries of the page. I assume that is why it is unprintable. I am trying to print a 13" by 10" hardcover book using iPhoto 11. Each of my pages is a single jpeg containing multiple photos (which I have assembled in Photoshop Elements) and each jpeg is 13 by 10 in Photoshop Elements.
       One more thing: on my final scan of the pages, prior to sending the book to the printer, I usually find one or two pages that have automatically been slightly increased from from the minimum size. Each time, I have manually set such pages back to minimum size.
        Can anyone suggest a fix for this problem?

    That's due to the bleed settings for the pages.  You can edit the iPhoto preferences with Pref Setter to change the bleed amount or turn it off entirely.

  • Why are my photos importing from my sd card out of order?

    Why are my photos importing out of sequence when uploading from an sd card?

    The card is probably sorted alphanumerically in ascending order, i.e. a1, a2, a3, etc.  So set your view option to: Sort by Title Ascending. Then check to see if that's correct.  If not change it.

  • Why does my email drop out when I access my group contacts list

    Why does my email drop out when I access my group contacts list

    Hi Helen
    I think (from the other forum you posted to previously) that you are asking how to send email to a group in your address book, or other group of email addresses? You will need a third party app to do this, a number of which are available from the App Store.
    Our MailShot Pro app is unique, as it can turn addressbook groups into special contacts that you can use from any Mail-compatible app on your iPad (Such as Mail, Photos, Maps etc.) as though the ability to send to groups were built into your device.
    You can find MailShot Pro here on the App Store

  • Why do my photos become uncropped when i upload to shutterfly?  I saved them as cropped photos in my album and followed the directions closely, but it keeps happening.

    Why do my photos become uncropped when I upload to Shutterfly using the Shutterfly app?   I correctly downloaded the photos to my iPad.  I then cropped them, enhanced them, and saved correctly.  I then created a new folder, put them in it, then used the Shutterfly app to upload them.   However, the uploaded versions are the originals before being cropped and enhanced.   I have tried this several times now and cannot figure it out.  

    There may or may not be something wrong with your colour settings or monitor calibration and profile. Quite possibly there isn't. You say you work in Adobe RGB space in Photoshop. If you're viewing Adobe RGB images which have no embedded profile in a browser then the images are extremely likely to look "washed out and faded". And if you're viewing images in a browser that's not fully colour managed then your images will look wrong there anyway, regardless of profiles.
    I suspect you're putting Adobe RGB profile images on the Web and not embedding that profile in the images.
    It's generally best practice to put sRGB images on the Web. You can work in Adobe RGB space in Photoshop but if you don't work in sRGB space then ensure images destined for the Web are converted to sRGB so there is the best chance of most viewers seeing a somewhat close approximation to what you see in Photoshop.
    Photoshop's Save For Web dialog has an option to convert to sRGB. Note that SFW has an option to embed the profile in JPEG but not PNG files. There is some debate over whether the profile should be embedded in images for the Web but my personal choice is to embed. So if I export sRGB PNG via SFW, I use Apple Preview to embed the sRGB profile.
