a few photos in windows photo gallery appear stretched on the horizontal axis

uploaded a few photos of photobucket.com that my mother took and when I open the photo gallery in windows that show tense.  They seem normal in the image of Microsoft Office Viewer.  Can I change a setting in WPG to get it to appear normal?

No guarantee... but if you run Windows Photo Gallery...
It may be interesting to try to update for Windows Live Photo Gallery.

    "print key" on the windows live photo gallery is hidden by the task bar, so I can't select it.  How I choose it?

    Resize your window by clicking Restore button (or the - and the X in the upper right corner of the window) and drag the window to the where you can see the "print" key.  You can also minimize the window and drag it around.

    Another thing you can do is to hold the CTRL key and press the letter P.  It still works.

    I hope this helps.  Good luck.

    Additional information: there are 2 computers that I use on the first Gallery Photo of Windows will open the image and allow me to use the left and right buttons to scroll through the rest of the photos in the folder, that's what I want.

    On the 2nd computer when I open an image it will open the Windows Photo Gallery in an index with thumbnails of the displayed record.  How can I change so that it opens the same thing as the first computer?

    I did the following on both computers; Right-click on the image and select open with...--> choose the default program--> go--> Program Files, Windows Photo Gallery, but it will be open always differently on computer 2.

    Both computers use Windows Vista 32-bit.

    This would happen if the file associations are corrupted on the computer, try method to set Photo Gallery Windows as the default program for opening files jpeg or png below image types.

    (a) open default programs by clicking the Start button, click default programs.

    (b) click on associate a type of file or Protocol with a program

    (c) in the following list of file protocol search jpeg and make sure that you have associated with the program that uses it and then check if it works.

    Change the programs that Windows uses by default

  • Photo Gallery can't save the edited images

    My Gallery of photos will not save modified pictures.  He did it when I got the computer back in the spring.  I installed Kodak EasyShare software after that and it seems that is about the time when the problem started in the photo gallery.  What options will I get solve this without doing a system restore?  What are the negative aspects of restoring my computer?  Thank you very much!  I don't really know anything about computers.

    Hi computer_illiterate,

    If you are experiencing problems saving images edited when you could before, I recommend you to uninstall the Kodak software and check if you are able to save the images.
     
    (1) If you have a third Party photo editing software, try removing it and see if that doesn't
    correct your problem.
     
    (2) other forums, I found several mentions to be a problem with a corrupted author field. Look in the file properties Details page. You can get the properties on the photo in question, scroll to the right section of author and origin and remove characters. Select apply and close the file. If the field of copyright has no characters to remove, try adding a few characters and then delete them.
     
    (3) the last thing to try is to check the permission on the Windows Photo Gallery.
    Go at the beginning and list programs. Right-click on the icon of photo gallery windows live and go to properties. Select tab security put highlight the Everyone group, click the button change. Put a control under all permissions allow. Then do the same for the users group. Click on apply or OK.

  • Photo Gallery can't open the photo because you are not allowed access to the location of the file

    Photo Gallery can't open the photo because you are not allowed access to the location of the file some of the image are open

    Click on the folder and change your permissions for it and all subfolders and files all rights and if necessary take hand the case (and maybe the parent folder or even its parent - and all of the subfolders and files) until you have the permission you need.  Here are the general procedures to help you:

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

Photo Gallery just recording the of scanned photos, downloaded cheap. I have "NERO 7" and "WINRAR" installed." Everything worked fine until a few months ago. How can I fix?

    Hi willmulholland,

    1. What is the file format of the uploaded image?

    2. use the Windows or Windows Photo Gallery live photo gallery?

    3. you receive an error message when you try to view the images uploaded using Windows Photo Gallery?

    4. are you having similar problem when displaying any other picture using Windows Photo Gallery?

    If you use Windows live photo gallery, then I would say that you post your question in the forums of Windows live.

  • Windows Photo Gallery does not save the edited images.

    I have problems editing contrast and red-eye with Windows Photo Gallery.  I get rid of the red eye and change the brightness, close gallery and get an error message "an error prevents photo library to save this image."  The image isn't 'read only', it is a jpeg file, and I am the owner/user.  I edited many other images, but now it restricts me to do these as well as a few others that I've ever edit.  Any ideas on what's going on?

    Hello sjleite,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Community Forum.

    If you encounter problems, saving images edited when you could before, I would ask

    If you have installed the 3rd party software that may interfere with the Windows Photo Gallery.

    (1) If you have a third Party photo editing software, try removing it and see if that doesn't

    correct your problem.

    (2) other forums, I found several mentions to be a problem with a corrupted author field. Look in the file properties Details page. You can get the properties on the photo in question, scroll to the right section of author and origin and remove characters. Select apply and close the file.
