Why does Photo Booth provide 'mirror' images?
I took a number of pictures of my friends with Photo Booth and realised that something was wrong. When I looked closer I noticed that all the photos had been reversed and were in fact mirror images of the actual person. Why is this? I had to use the "Flip Photo" command to make them normal. I would suppose this is how the original iSight works as well although I have never tried it.
Then I noticed that there is an "Auto flip all photos" command, which of course is what I choose. But it is beyond me why this is not the default in the first place.
When you use a camera with a timer on it to take your picture, it does not give you a mirror image, it provides you with the true image. iSight should also IMHO.

It's because it's more natural for people to see themselves in a mirror while getting ready for the picture. Thus if they lift their right hand the hand on the right side of the screen would appear to rise. If the picture suddenly flipped after taking the picture, this could be confusing, which is why it isn't the default, but simply an option.

Why does photo booth stop recording video randomly
Im trying to record short videos using photobooth about 3 mins long. but when i record. more than half the time it will say that it is recording the whole thing
but when i stop the recording, only about fraction of what i wanted will be there.
Ex. i just recorded about 3m 30sec of video...and when i stopped it....only 32 seconds of video was recorded.....

Why does photo booth stop filming at a random time?
I have 60 gigs available, so storage isn't an issue.
I'll film a video, say, 5 minutes, and then when I click the stop button, the video will show up as 36 seconds, or 54 seconds. It will only record an arbitrary amount of the video, not the whole thing. Occasionally, it records the whole video. Other times, it randomly shuts off. What is the deal?

Does Photo Booth support mirroring via VGA to iPad 2 or iPad Retina?
The company I work for is putting on an event, and we are considering some sort of photo booth for attendees.
We own a few large display monitors, and I was curious if we could use an iPad connected via VGA to the display to mirror Photo Booth as a way to create interest with other attendees at the event.
I think we would have some sort of stand that holds the iPad in place, where attendees can stand in front of it and snap pictures in Photo Booth. As that's happening, all the interaction on the iPad is mirrored to an external display next to the iPad stand.
Does Photo Booth support mirroring? Is this feasible?
Thanks in advance for any information!Transfer the photo to your computer. Then 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.)

Photo Booth Captures Mirror Image
I love using the Photo Booth application to record quick videos and take photos. However all videos and photos taken in my Photo Booth display backwards - they are mirror images of reality. In other words, if I hold up a sign that says HELLO, in the displayed image, it reads OLLEH. Is there a way to fix this?
Hi tonyakay13: Try this: With Photo Booth running go to the Edit menu, select "Auto flip new photos". You may have to do something similar in your movie program.

Why is "photo booth" giving a message saying "no camera attached" when it has a web cam? it did work okay when I bought the computer six months ago?
I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
You can't "copy" your photos to the "library manager", there is just no way to any such thing.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
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.

HT201077 Why does photo stream on my i phone have more of my pictures than photo stream on my mac?
Why does photo stream on my i phone have more of my pictures than photo stream on my mac?
Log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane and disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane. Then log back in and re-enable, respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream on your Mac.

Why does photo stream not work on 4g
Hi, I have a iPhone and a Mac and an iCloud account, but why does photo stream not work on 4g, but as soon as I connect to wifi, it send photos to photo stream, can please tell why it does not send photos to photo stream when on 4g, thanks.
The data requirements for sending potentially many photos can be too taxing/costly on a carrier's data plan.

Why does Verizon not provide 3G coverage in Western Maryland (Garrett County) and why does it not have an agreement with US Cellular for such coverage?
Thanks for the zip code pfekete. I looked into the coverage in your area and I do see you are in an extended 1X data coverage which explains why you're not connecting to 3G. What phone do you have? We may be able to advise you on how to adjust the settings so it picks up the strongest signal. I apologize for the inconvenience.
