Won't show entire photo during slideshow

I have many old scanned pics of various dimensions and when I create a slideshow, many of them are not shown in their entirety (think cropped) before the next slide comes. I have selected the "scale to fit" option but that doesn't quite get it done. Resizing them would distort the images, right? If I had small portrait pics in there and a large landscapes, wouldn't they come out looking like Kai's Super Goo projects?

I agree with the original post. I've got fairly regularly sized 4:3 photos, higher resolution than my screen, and I can't combine the Ken Burns effect and any other preference to ensure that I see the entire picture. Usually the top gets cut off - possibly because I have an iMac G5 whose aspect ratio is longer in relation to its height than my photos. The option to 'scale images to fit screen' doesn't seem to do anything either way - I would be happy with black bands at either side if I could get the whole pic but I can't. I can easily do this with GraphicConverter, a much simpler program. I am puzzled that people should be content to have slide shows where involuntary cropping takes place: and there's nothing in the Help file about it. Is it a Permissions problem?
TIA

  • ATV doesn't show all photos in slideshow

    My ATV3 doesn't show all my photos in slideshow. It seems to repeat the same, say 50, over and over, even though I have about 400 in the folder on my windows7 PC.
    Whats the fix?
    Thanks
    Andy

    For the avoidance of doubt are you talking about the screensaver or the slideshows.
    Slideshows should show all your photos, but screensavers will not. Screensavers need to save the photos to the Apple TVs flash storage, the Apple TV doesn't have a lot of this and so limits the number of photos it uses.

  • How to prevent resizing photos during slideshow?

    Hello,
    I'd like to know if there is any possibility to see the photos in their exact size, when I run slideshow? I tried to switch on/of that "Scale photos to fill screen" option, but this just changes the rule which side of photo is resized to fill screen .
    I'd like to see small photos rather in their exact size during slideshow than resized to fit width or height of the screen. If it is not possible in iPhoto 06, can I manage it in iMovie? I've never used that app but I've heard something about slideshows and iMovie or iDvd..
    Thank for your answers
    Honza

    hope this one hasn't been answered millions of times already...It has.
    I'd like to prevent it altogether. Can this be done?Not really. You need to use the ComponentListener to handle the componenResized events. You can get multiple events by adding the following to you code. The problem is you get lots of flickering when you handle each event and resize the frame.
    Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().setDynamicLayout(true);

  • Rate & Delete photos during slideshow in iPhoto '09 (8.1.1)

    Generally, I like the new iPhoto. One thing I HATE is that I cannot find a way to delete or rate photos during a slideshow. In the last version, one option was a trash can, another was a rating. I use the slideshow to see the best, full screen detail of the photo. If it doesn't pass that test, I delete it. I can't find a simple convenient way to do that now. Am I missing something?

    Yes, I can do that. It means I have to click on EVERY SINGLE PHOTO and again to move between photos in order to cull photos. A joy of digital photography is the ability to take lots of shots and choose to keep the best. In the old version it was wonderfully easy to use the slideshow to rate and delete photos right from a "last import." I had to click only once to do it and only on photos I wanted to rate or get rid of. I was hoping there might be a way that I wasn't finding in the new version. What I'm hearing is that a really valuable feature of the old version has been eliminated.

  • Slideshow not showing entire photo?

    I'm making a slideshow for a wedding this Saturday.
    As I was previewing the slideshow, I noticed that the
    pictures weren't being shown in their entirety. Is there
    an option that I can select that will allow the photos
    to be shown as a whole?
    I've tried changing the play time for each slide, thinkin
    it might get enough time to zoom out to view the entire
    picture. But when I went to change it, I couldnt't.
    Thank you so much in advance for your time!!

    What is you URL?
    How many photo groups do you have in your photo page?
    iWeb only allows ONE photo group in photo page, unless you do some post processing, ie: http://hac.i4host.net/una_mas.html
    There are four photo groups in that page.

  • Rating photos, during slideshow, iPhoto 9.6/Yosemite

    Hello
    I used to be able to run a simple slideshow of images in iPhoto, and click on rating stars as it ran, great for easy photo sorting.
    I've updated to Yosemite & iphoto 9.6, and I can see how to do this anymore ?
    Any ideas?  Thanks

    Thanks Leonie, that does work
    When I do this it shows no clue on screen that the ratings have happened during the slide show, but I do see the ratings are there when its done.
    It used to show a nice big 1-5 star display you could click on
    Anyway, you've solved my problem
    Thanks again

  • Cant rate photos during slideshow mode

    Good day
    In the Adobe Classroom in a Book LR5 pg 28 there is a method shown to start the slideshow - Window > Impromptu Slideshow.
    It states that while you are running the slide show you can use the keys 1 - 5 to rate the photos and the left and right arrows top scroll through the photos.
    the numbers indicate the rating but it does not apply the rating to the photo - when you get out of the slideshow the rating is the same as before I started the slideshow.
    Additionally the left and right arrows dont appear to work.
    Any ideas on what i would be doing wrong?
    thanks

    OK Rob - so you'r saying this is the same for you - manual updating of the ratings works (as it does with me) but the "on the fly" rating during the impromptu slideshow doesn't work (same as me)
    Also note hitting the esc button does NOT exit me from the slideshow - it appears that only a mouse click will perform the exit for me.
    All true - sorry about the round-a-bout wording .
    I suspect Adobe knows about it by now, but may be worth logging a bug (?)

  • Not showing some photos in slideshow

    I have created a slideshow in iphoto 11, with Lion but when I play the slideshow some photos are not showing- the music keeps palying but there is a blank screen whilst the view finder at the bottom continues to move along the photos. Any advice?

    Try creating a new slideshow with the same photos and see if they can be seen.  If not then   make a temporary backup of the library and launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed to rebuild the library. Select  option #6, repair library file permissions.

  • Show certain photo in slideshow by clicking a button?

    I have a slideshow on my homepage which contains 4 pictures. Under that i have photos of 4 energy drink cans to show what i sell. I need the slideshow to change to a certain photo when i click on each of the cans. For eksampel: I click the red can and a photo showing more info about the red energy drink shows on the slideshow. Is this possible anyhow?

    Hi
    Yes, you can create a slideshow and include thumbnails , setup autoplay so that when page loads up it would auto play the slideshow. Here when users will click on rollover mouse to any specific thumbnail with drink can image then slideshow will show that image.

  • Show picture names during slideshow

    Hi all,
    is there a way to automaticly show the pictures file names during a slideshow?
    Or automaticly number all the pictures?
    thanx

    Steve O
    In the iDVD window where you import your photographs for the slideshow, there is a gear icon along the lower menu bar called "Settings". Click on this and then click in the lowest box" Show titles and comments". Then select OK. Each photograph will now have two editable blocks: one for title and one for comments.
    You could also edit the titles in iPhoto before you import them to iDVD.

  • New iPhone 4 won't show imported photos in camera roll

    Recently upgraded the wife from her old 3G to the iPhone 4. She wanted to get her photos from her 3G onto her 4. Transferred the photos from the 3G onto my Mac using iPhoto and then synced the 4 with that library. The photos transferred over to the 4 no problem, we can even view them if we change the wallpaper settings. However, they don't show up in camera roll. Is there another way to transfer photos from one iphone to another and be able to view them in camera roll on the iPhone being transferred to?

    Try basic troubleshooting of resetting or restarting the device.
    If those do not work, re-sync the device with iTunes.

  • My iPhoto images won't show, and Photo Library Repair will not open when I command-Option-click on the iPhoto icon.

    Some of my iPhoto albums will not show, as below:
    When I click on any of those individual albums, for a brief split second I can see the images displayed, but then they revert to this:
    Then if I click on any of those images, this image appears:
    I have real a lot of posts that say to click Command+Option while opening iPhoto and this will open the Photo Library Repair window, but... this is not happening. Each time I do it, iPhoto just opens as it normally does. I've tried about 10 times, closing iPhoto completely. I've tried through the dock icon and through the applications listing. Neither will open anything other than regular old iPhoto.
    Can anyone help me and suggest what I may be doing wrong, or are there any alternative was to open Photo Library Repair so I can rebuild my library? I really don't want to lose all of those photos, especially since some are really important and irreplaceable.
    Thanks.

    I have real a lot of posts that say to click Command+Option while opening iPhoto and this will open the Photo Library Repair window, but... this is not happening.
    Be sure you're holding the correct keys and that you're holding them long enough. Depress them before clicking on iPhoto and don't let go until the menu shows up.
    If you don't want to lose those photos, make a back up now. Hopefully it's not too late.

  • Viewer won't show all photos

    I imported several photos into the viewer on top but when I played the preview, it only played the first photo over and over.
    what am I doing wrong?

    Under the Photos tab I have selected to sync My Pictures, which contains over 1000 photos.
    Try deleting the topmost photo cache in your My Pictures folder, as per the following document:
    [Photo Sync creates iPod photo Cache|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314]
    Do you have any better luck with syncing "My Pictures" now?

  • Iphoto 4.0.3 won't show my photos anymore

    My pics appear as empty grey boxes, although they seem to be there in terms of disc space. This happened for no obvious reason. Cannot see them nor edit them. I tried to rebuild my library from iphoto 4.0.3. The library loads, and then starts to repair when the application quits unexpectedly. Any hint?
    Thanks

    Reinstalling your system software will not correct a corrupt iPhoto library database (but, I guess you know that now). Create a new admin user account and log in to it to see if iPhoto will launch normally to an empty library. If it does, then there's nothing wrong with your system.
    Log back in to your original user account and look in your Pictures folder. How many folders do you see whose name begins with "iPhoto Library"?
