Why do the quality of photos suffer when produced as a slideshow?

the borders tremble and the resolution is terrible. Any suggestions?

I don't see the desaturation you describe on my own 15" retina but what you describe is definitely not strange and out of character for the Slideshow module. The slideshow module is quite bad to start with and has been such since the start of Lightroom. Pity as the rest of Lightroom is quite good. It might work in a pinch but even the free iPhoto that is already on your Mac does a better job. It's not a bad idea to simply export some jpegs and show them in iPhoto. You get many more transitions and you can do the zooming and panning. I use Keynote myself for complete control and text overlays/effects. This now is also a free download from the app store with any recent Mac. Just avoid saving your files on the silly Apple cloud.

Why is the quality of movies and pictures exported to the external hard drive lowered?

Why is the quality of movies and pictures exported to the external hard drive lowered?

Are you speaking of manually moving these files, or using an application to export?
When you use the the term "export", it usually entails an application performing some kind of file conversion, rather than a simple transfer. It is during conversion to another file format that information may be lost through lossy compression, or by settings of the export.
Anytime you convert a file to another format, there will usually be some loss or degradation. Tghis can't be helped, as one format may not support every information characteristic the original one did.

I am having trouble keeping the quality of my video when exporting to my external drive. I change the kind to "original" but when I view the video from the external drive once exported, the sound and picture are distorted.

I am having trouble keeping the quality of my video when exporting to my external hard drive. I have tried to export from iphoto with changing kind to "original" but when I open the video from the external drive the quality is effected. I have also tried copying the video to my desktop and then dragging and dropping onto the drive...same problem. Any suggestions? I would like to save everything to my external drive so that I can delete all of iphoto library and then reimport to correct a few things.

The file sizes are identical. In the finder I did a search for all .mov files. Then when they came up, I went through them and named each one so that they would be easier to find. I am a new mac user and am used to windows. I realized later that I should not have done this....with a mac files should be named within iphoto app...not finder....When I went to open the videos in iphoto, it wouldn't allow me. I had to go into finder, copy to desktop and reimport into iphoto. Then the videos worked again. However, I had the problem with the poor video quality when copied to external drive before that. Actually the first problem I had was when I copied to ext drive...videos were copying as an image...so I learned that you have to change "kind" to original before exporting....then that problem was solved...now they are videos, not images but not of a great quality. Skips, sound and images are not in sync...etc...

Why does the elements 13 change resolution when going into the editor -- it is huge and unusable

why does the elements 13 change resolution when going into the editor? -- it is huge and unusable

Many mysteries...
Which is your OS version ?
Your screen is 1920 by 1080 pixels.
The problem appeared after having worked normally.
When we select a picture from the organizer (album) and click on the edit button. The editor software changes the entire computer resolution from 1920 x 1080 to 640 x 480 (very unusable).
That's not clear for me: did you click on the 'Edit' button on the bottom right part of the organizer, or did you use the menu or the right click popup menu to open the editor? In the second case, you are in the editor workspace.
We tried right clicking on the Elements 13 icon, select properties and under compatibility we made sure that "run in 640 x 480 screen resolution" was de-selected, and it was. Cannot find any properties window for the editor?
The editor has its properties in the 'Edit/preferences' menu, but there is nothing about resolution there.
Just to be sure : when you are in the organizer with the left 'Folders' panel shown, you highlight one of those pictures to edit. Then you right click and choose to "go to folder". Do the images are shown as 'offline' ? If that is the case, the original are on an external drive which is not connected, and what you are seeing is a 'preview' copy on your computer with 640 x 480 resolution.

anyone has had the same problem? Thank you!!!

Apple confirmed, it is an iphone 4S feature, that is intended for our 'benefit'. It is being solved by each of us using headphones to over-ride the muting function.

Why does the Yosemite Finder become unresponsive when moving a file within my USB Flash stick?

Why does the Yosemite Finder become unresponsive when moving a file within my USB Flash stick? I have to Relaunch the Finder to get it working again.
Background / other symptoms:
The Flash drive in question has been formatted HFS.
I get no error messages, including on the Console, and no sound indicators.
I can copy files, using the Finder, from a hard-drive to the usb flash drive with no problem.
Finder copying on this stick works just fine on my other Mac.
I can move files within another (FAT32-formatted) USB flash drive.
The quirky USB HFS Flash drive works fine on my other Mac.
Outside of the Finder, I can use mv just fine to move the files on the HFS flash drive.
If the HFS-formatted Flash drive were faulty, I would at least expect some sort of error in the Console app, but perhaps not from the Finder.

Why does the Date Created metadata change when images are exported?How do I stop it from changing?

why does the Date Created metadata change when images are exported? How do I stop it from changing? I must have a prefernce set up wrong.

I don't know what OS you are using, or what application you are using to view the data about your exported files, but on Windows and using Windows Explorer the "Date Created" field relates only to the date that the exported file was created, i.e. if viewed immediately after export it will show the date created as being the same date. In order to view "Capture Date" in something like Explorer, you first have to ensure you have included the Metadata as Conrad outlined above, then you have to adjust the display properties of Explorer to show the "Date Taken" field. Here is an example, part of a folder I exported back on March 3rd, note the difference between that last two dates:

Hi laura,
I suspect that your 2 decimal place numbers are formatted as text. Change the format of the column to currency and see it that works.

Why does the album artwork appear only when the first song is playing only?

Why does the album artwork appear only when the first song is playing only?

Hello ckuan. Thx for your reply.
The songs are not from iTunes, they are from CDs that I had copied to my itunes library.
It is worth mentioning that I wasn't facing this issue before IOS 5.

Why does the color wheel come up when I I can't get rid of it.

Why does the color wheel come up when I try to open an email? I can't get rid of it unless I sign in again!

The spinning beach ball of death (SBBOD) can be caused by many things. Common causes are not enough RAM, insufficient HD space or another process using a lot of the CPU's power. You can open Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) for many things including the %CPU column to see if there is an app using a large %CPU. Also click the System Memory tab and see how much FREE RAM it shows. As a general rule your system should have 500MB or more available.
Finally I'd recommend reading and using the Spinning Beach Ball of Death article for additonal troubleshooting steps.

Why would the quality of text become degraded when slideshow project is burned to DVD

I created 25 slideshows in Aperture, exported them as mov files, then imported them into iMovie to make one large slideshow with chapters. Then I exported this iMovie project to iDVD. After creating a theme I burned the project to a disk image. It was at this point that the comments on each photo that I had incorporated back in the Aperture phase, looked like severe jpg compression while the photos themselves did not appear degraded. Can anyone explain why that happened, and what I can do about it? I was using the latest version of Aperture, iMovie '08 and iLife '08 on an iMac running OS 10.6.7

There are a couple of issues.
First: The Aperture images used in iDVD are the Aperture PREVIEW images; you need to go into Apperture's preferences and increase the size of the preview images (Preference>Previews). A better solution (in my opinion) is to actually export the image from Aperture at a reasonable size (for NTSC, something like 854x480; for PAL, 1024x576) to a folder on your desktop and use THOSE exported images.. Note that going to larger sizes won't give better quality - and may, in fact, slightly reduce the quality because of the Quicktime interpolation that will be required in iDVD.
Second: DVDs are low resolution devices (like 640x480 pixels for NTSC) and can not maintain small type. See http://homepage.mac.com/prof_pixel/text_test_iLife09.html for an experiment I did a couple of years ago for some type size examples.
