Why do photos on my ipad3 look so crappy?

I have synced my pictures from "My Pictures" on a Windows 7 PC.  These are 12 MP JPG files, 4000 x x3000 pixels, 24 bit, sRGB, approx 2.33 MB each, shot by Canon Powershot ELPH 300HS.
The pictures look great on my PC monitor but look crappy (not sharp, colored areas look blotchy) on the ipad3.  Any idea why?
Is there a setting in iTunes or iPad that can affect the transfer or the display of pictures?
Thanks.
Aloke

My problem seems to be resolved.  I had tried vieweing my pictures just after importing about 4 GB of files.  I believe that what the Photo app was showing me the lower resoultion "icon" file stored in each JPG file .. the same image you see when scrolling through the folder by sliding the finger long the bottom of the image.
Looks like after the iPad had some time to build indexes or whatever, the images are now shoung up in full glory and sharpness.

  • Why does Photos max out my CPU?

    Just "upgraded" to 10.10.3 on my MacBook Pro and converted to Photos.  Every time Photos is open, a couple of seconds later, the fan is running full-bore and only stops when I close Photos.  I looked at Activity Monitor, and it is clear Photos is crushing my CPU (see attached screen shot).  What's happening?  Why is Photos crushing my CPU?  Thanks!

    Let it run.

    The 50+ GB Library on my i5 Mac took less than 2 hours to settle down. The same 50+ GB on my 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo took almost 3 hours.

  • Why are photos again available on the fotostream even that I have deleted them?

    Hi,
    why are photos again available on the Fotostream, even that I have deleted them with using an iphone?

    Hi Ghallsa,
    I don't know why you believe that emails would be using 6go if you deleted them all.  I think you concluded this from the available space left and what you know is using space.  You have to understand that what is taking storage space is not only apps, music and emails.  There is also the iOS which is taking space as well as a lot of data cached on your devices that will usually be shown as 'Other' category if you are to look at your space usage from iTunes.
    If the total 'Other' space appears excessive, I suggest you should 'restore' your device (after a full recent backup); this sometimes helps to remove any data left behind.  But before this, try a look at Settings->General->Usage->Manage Storage.  This will list apps from the most space consuming to the less.  It could also help you to identify which apps may take to much of your precious space not only by apps size but also from the data the apps had stored.
    good luck,

    If the photos that you are wanting to delete are also in your Camera Roll then you can delete them from the camera roll

  • Why is "Photos" so awful?  iPhoto was simple, intuitive, easy to organize and use. Photos is the opposite of that.

    Incorrect. iPhotos is not removed at all. It can still be used as long as you have kept your Software up to date. Otherwise
    Is Iphoto gone ? i want it back!

  • Just got an iPad mini 3 and have not reset my iPad mini 3; is that why the photos from iCloud backup are not showing up in the new iPad?

    Just got an iPad mini 3 and have not reset my iPad mini 3; is that why the photos from iCloud backup are not showing up in the new iPad?

    Sorry, don't know what you are asking. You have an old iPad Mini 3 and a new iPad Mini 3?  How did you set up the new iPad? Did you restore it from a backup of the old iPad? What photos are you not seeing?
    Cheers,

  • Why wont photos on SD Card download toiPad

    Why wont photos on SD cards & flashdrives download to iPad?

    You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
     Cheers, Tom

  • Why do photos take up so much space on my phone?

    I have an iPhone 5, 16 gigs. I have 174 photos and 22 videos and it says that the photos take up 3.6g of my memory... My friend has over 2k photos and hers is at 4gigs. I saved my photos to iPhoto and I deleted all my photos and ran a test, I made sure photos were at 0gigs; Then i took 30 random photos and checked and it said that it took up 124mbs. 30 photos 124mbs. I don't understand why my photos take up so much space. I also bought the Beyonce album when it came out and thats the only music I bought and it says it takes up 1.1gigs and the 17 videos are at 974 mbs. help????

    Import the photos to your computer, then sync them back with iTunes. The photos will be reduced in size and quality to fit on the iPhone without taking as much space as the original pictures.
    Also make sure not to use HDR mode if you do not need that feature.
    After you import your photos from Camera Roll or Saved Photos, you can use iTunes to sync them back to your device.

    No.

    "Vaguely like" is the best we can hope for and a minor miracle in itself. PDF was never meant to be converted.

  • Preview, photo opened in it looks sharp and then soften 2 sec. later!

    Everytime I open up a photo in Preview it looks sharp for 2 sec and then it soften right infront of my very eyes. Ther same photo looks sharp and stay sharp when open in Photoshop. Is there a bug in Preview that came with OX10? Has anyone found the same problem? I look into Preview pref and tried several tweekings. Still the same.

    Hi--
    You were right. When set to actual size in pref. the
    previews will remain sharp but as soon as you use the
    magnify glasses + or - the softening returns.
    I'd suggest sending feedback to Apple about it if you'd like them to change it. It looks like they use a lower quality, faster algorithm to scale the pictures in Preview. Then they anti-alias the resulting picture. If I scale an image in Photoshop using "nearest neighbor" as the interpolation algorithm, I get results identical to what I see in Preview until it smooths out the ragged edges.

    I have manipulated a photo using layers etc and then flattened it and saved it under a new name.  When I use 'Preview' (mac) to view the finished photo it doesn't look right.  It's as the layers have not flattened correctly.  When viewed in Elements 12 it looks OK.  The photo looks incorrect in other software such as photo books.
    Looking at the same photo before flattening, what is being shown is only the top layer.
    How do I correct this?

    The top layer is indeed the one that is visible, unless there is/are area(s) of translucency on that layer, so that you can visualize a portion of the subjacent layer.

    Are your settings targeted to have the printer manage colors, or, to have PSE manage colors?
