Why can't I resize my pics for wallpaper science o s 7 update?

Anyone else having problems resizing photos for wallpaper since o s 7 introduction?

It's a glitch. No idea when Apple will release a fix (or if they will)
if you go into the photos app and 'send' your photos to be wallpaper, you still can't scale but you can at least maneuver the image around and choose what part you want to see.

Since downloading iOS 7 can't move and scale pics for wallpaper?

Any tips on how to move and scale pics for wallpaper? Cannot be done since downloading iOS 7

I have tried a lot of the suggesstions I've found here and on the web -- the "Accessibility >> Reduce Motion" on/off stuff, editing the original image in Photoshop and e-mailing it to myself (downsized it, changed the overall canvas size of the image, etc., etc.), and I've found that the best fix might just be a combination of some of them, along with some tweaking of the photo...
Ensure that "Reduce Motion" is ON (Settings > General > Accessibility > Reduce Motion, set the slider to "on" (green)).
When taking a new photo, take it with your iPhone/iPad, oriented vertically ("Portrait") -- This makes the whole process quite a bit easier.
Access the photo in the "Camera" app.
Tap Edit.
Use the Crop tool to remove excess content from left and right (basically, you want a vertical rectangle, with your subject matter centered in it).
Tap Crop. The image will be slightly enlarged to fit your screen.
Tap Save.
Tap the "square with a vertical arrow" button (bottom left) -- Sorry don't know what this button is called.
Scroll through the options at the bottom of the screen and select "Use as Wallpaper".
Tap Set, then pick which screen(s) should use the photo. Bingo... new, properly-scaled wallpaper.
This is a band-aid at best, but it works. I've also Edited existing photos (taken in Landscape mode (wide)), and if I could crop the desired subject matter to fit in a tall rectangle, it more-or-less worked.
Side note: With "Reduce Motion" set to off, when I applied a photo as a wallpaper, I noticed that, even though I'd cropped it as a vertical rectangle, the image was still force-zoomed, and content was cropped out. Turn it back on, and the image was as I'd cropped it.
Hope this helps!

Why can't I scale my photos for wallpaper?

When I select a photo for wallpaper I can't scale it.

I'd imagine you're trying to zoom out on a photo. I think there's a problem with scaling if the dimensions of the photo are not fit to wallpaper size.
The workaround is in the photo app itself, select the photo you wish to use. Resize it to what you want the wallpaper to look like. Take a screenshot (press the home button and sleep button at the same time).
Set the screenshot as wallpaper. That should fit nicely.

Why can't I resize my background for my lock screen?

When ever I try to set a picture as my background in my phone, it will zoom in super far and make it so you can't see the picture. I try to shrink it and press set but it doesn't work. How can I solve this problem?

Why Can't I Access Old Photos for Wallpaper Anymore?

Because of the new switch in photo organization on ios8 I can't access photos that are on my phone to set wallpapers. The photos exist, just not in any photo album as only "Recently Added" appear. When I go into the Photos app I can access them via Photos (and all the dumb "collections" and "moments" subgroups) instead of Albums, but when setting Wallpaper via the Settings menu, you're only given options to choose photos on your phone that are in the newly created albums instead of having access to all that exist. This is beyond stupid. I'm not looking for community help as much as saying how stupid this is and that NOBODY had a problem with the good old Camera Roll. What stupid regressive designing.

Now that you mention it, my parents don't need to see my playlists, either. Hadn't thought of that.
I accidently stumbled on an "ad-hoc" workaround that helped me. The downside is that it only works with smart playlists so it may or may not work for you. But here it is anyway:
Smart playlists will not be uploaded to the cloud if they refeence another playlist on the cloud. So I created a "catch-all" smart playlist and added a reference to that in all the smart playlists I don't want to share.
I also noticed that playlists with more than just music are not uploaded. You could add a short video or something to the playlists that are only for the iMac. This obviously won't work if your daughter needs them on her iDevice.
I know these aren't good solutions, but I hope they help someone.
Cheers,

From some reason (i'm not sure why..) my whole iphoto library got deleted. I restored the whole library from my backup. The photos are blank but steel have the photo info. (date, res., size etc.) Do you know what's the prob.? why can't i see my pics.

It's says that file does not exist. How come? And why does it still show the image info.?
Where can i find those files (i have a daily backup)
The original image files are missing form your iPhoto library or iPhoto cannot find them, because the link to the originals has been broken. The image info is stored in the internal libraries, independent of the original files. That is, why you are still seeing them.
I restored the whole library from my backup.
Try restoring from an older backup, from before you first noticed the problem.
How large is the library, that you restored? Is the file size large enough to hold all your photos, or has the size been reduced? If the library is still large, the photos may still be inside, even if iPhoto cannot find them.
It's says that file does not exist. How come?
What happened, before your iPhoto library got deleted? Which applications have you been running, or which new software have installed or upgraded? Have you moved the library to a different disk or tried to use it from different user account or access it over the network?

Hi ronhermes,
I hope you're having a lovely vacation!
I think it may just be a matter of completing your our purchase through the US Adobe Store (not the Adobe Store in Greece). For more information, see "Are there any workarounds?" in this document.

There is no need to keep re-buying it.

Based on the current log switch checkpointing, good estimate as you should
at least perform 3-4 log switches per hour based on the increased size of your
redo logfiles and do not forget to multiplex the redo logfiles onto faster
hard drives as Mr Burleson would say in his book SSD (Solid State Drives)
