Why can't I save a zoomed in photo in iPhoto 7.1.5?

I would like to be able to zoom in on a photo in iPhoto and save it that way but it doesn't work. Is this possible or am I doing something wrong?

the way to save a Zoomed photo is to crop it to the view you want

  • Why can't I view some of the photos in iphoto

    I used to be able to see all my photos in iphoto. now a lot of them are just a gray square. Why can't I see them? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    What version of iPhoto?
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.  

  • Why can't I just drag and drop photos from iPhoto on to my iPhone?

    This has been something on my mind for a long time. For some reason I can't just drag and drop certain photos from my computer on to my iPhone. Why? There both Apple products. Shouldn't it be easier? For some reason I have to go through iTunes to select which albums I would like to import, but I'm working with raw files. My computer has over 250 gb of storage space. My iPhone has 16 gb.  One of my even folders is 14 gbs. That would take up all the space on my phone. Is there a way to get around this? Why do I have to go through iTunes to put files on my iPhone?

    Only Apple can answer that question, so you'll need to ask them.
    But will your phone work with Raw files? If you're syncing from iPhoto via iTunes then that's not the raw file that's going over, it's the Jpeg preview from iPhoto.
    As for the space issue, make an album of the photos you want to sync.

  • Why can't i save a picture on photos

    On my iPad I click save pitcure and the picture doesnt save, and also on my Macbook Pro on photostream i insert a picture to photostream and it doent apere in photostream or in my divices

    Have you tried closing the Photos app completely and seeing if the pictures save to the camera roll/saved photos album after you re-open the app ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Photos 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Photos app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset and see if it works after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Why can i no longer drag and drop photos into iphoto or on desktop?

    This has only happened this week, before this I was able to drag any photo from any website and add it to either my iphoto or desktop. Now I cant do this, and I cant transfer from iphoto to desktop or vice versa either. Ive tried turning off iphoto altogether then back on again but no difference. Ive tried turning of the Mac and back on again, still the same.
    I'm not technically minded so no kyrptic answeres pleas! I just need to know why all of sudden iphoto has changed? Thanks.

    Note that you have to go into the Preferences folder in the Users folder to find the file to trash. See my post above.
    Quit all your open apps.
    Click anywhere on your desktop so Finder is active.
    Hold the Option key down and click on the Go menu.
    In the drop down select Library.
    In the Library folder find the Preferences folder. Scroll through it to find: com.apple.finder.plist
    Trash that file, then restart the computer.

  • Why can't I save changes I made to a photo using the zoom feature?

    why can't I save changes I made to photo that I use the zoom feature. I zoom in and set it the way I want but when I click done it reverts the photo back to it's original size.

    When you zoom you're not chnaging the image at all, just looking at more closely, like using binoculars. Using binoculars doesn't actually bring the object closer. So with zooming. I think you might want to explore cropping.

  • In the new iphoto app, why can't i save multiple images to camera roll at once?

    why can't i save multiple images to camera roll at once? it seems i can only save one at a time and its very frustrating..
    the options seem to be there, they are just greyed out and i cant click on them.
    at first i thought its because the images were too big, so i tried it with smaller images but same thing.
    APPLE HELP!

    I can confirm @khaniff's original post the option in iPhoto for iOS is greyed out in conflict with the referenced article that follows:
    Save to the Camera Roll
    Tap a photo, album, or event and tap .
    Tap Camera Roll.
    Confirm or change the photos you want to share by tapping an option.
    Select all the photos in an album or event: Tap All.
    Select a range of photos: Tap Choose, tap Range, tap the first and last photos in the range, and tap Next.
    To use your photo in another app, open the app and select the Camera Roll album.

  • Why can't I save as my photoshop cs4 file to .png file? I don't see any option now?

    Hi,
    why can't I save as my photoshop cs4 file to .png file? I don't see any option for saving .png in Save As diolog box now? It was working fine until yesterday. Neither I can open a .png file nor save my psd file to png file?
    Please help. I am using Microsoft Window XP Professional and Photoshop CS4.

    In Photoshop CS4, .png open/save support was provided by a plug-in.  It is possible the plug-in has been deleted or moved, or has become unavailable to Photoshop because of a change in file protections.
    Do you have the file PNG.8BI on your system.  It should be here on a 32 bit Windows system:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Plug-ins\File Formats\PNG.8BI

  • When I zoom in on photo using iPhoto, how can I save the zoomed in photo please?  This always looks better than cropping., When I zoom in on photo using iPhoto, how can I save the zoomed in photo please?  This always looks better than cropping.

    When I zoom in on photo using iPhoto, how can I save the zoomed in photo please?  I would like a screen shot of my zoomed in photo - is this possible?.  Cropping doesn't give the same effect as zooming in and magnifying the photo.  Any help would be appreciated thank you.  I have an iMac

    To take a screenshot of the zoomed photo, press either the key combination
         ⇧⌘3   for a screenshot of the full screen, or
         ⇧⌘4   to bring up a selection rectangle: select the section of the screen, that you want to save.
    The screenshots will be sent to your desktop; drag them from there to the iPhoto icon in the Dock to import them.

    I use firefox 9, why can not I save as image on google image?

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • Why can't i save the same bookmarks in different locations?

    Why can't I save a bookmark for a particular site in multiple locations? If I already have it saved, for instance, in the bookmarks menu, and I then try to save an additional copy into the bookmarks folder, the copy in the bookmarks menu will disappear. This is incredibly frustrating. Thanks.

    Using the "star" at the right end of the Location bar, you can only save to one location.
    Using the Bookmark Sidebar (CTRL+B opens and closes the Bookmarks Sidebar), you can drag the icon at the left end of the Location Bar to other locations, one at a time, into a folder (will be placed at the bottom of the items already in the folder) or into any position, including a position within a folder. The image below demonstrates; the image is old, but the method still works. This is the only method that I use for Bookmarking, as I place some Bookmarks in multiple folders and I keep the Bookmarks Sidebar open most of the time for easier access.
