iMac OSX ElCaptain - a few photos screen saver are zoomed - taking pictures

I have my photos on my screensaver, but many of them are zoomed.  Also have a problem with faces in iPhoto - cannot turn off and a lot of my pictures have gone to a few faces? iMac OS X EL Captain worm 10.11.3 I pictures in iPhoto and photos and it becomes very confusing.  I wish that all my photos randomly flashes on the screen - but with pictures everywhere, I am not able to do.  I'd love to consolidate and do them all in one place

You give little information so I'm not clear on what you have or what you want

Basically when you are migrating from iPhoto to Photos both libraries are identical (and share the original and previews using hard links) - as move you toward the front of the changes are made only in the library you use (Photos or iPhoto) and nothing that do you in one program affects the other - if you do not have two different libraries - the two are identical except for additions and deletions you did since the initial migration

  • Using photos screen saver does not work but work other screensavers

    Hi there - we use Vista for some time, we have been able to use the photo screen saver option and it worked very well.  All of a sudden it has stopped working and we now get only a blank screen.  All the other screen savers simply do not work the photo option.  When we choose the picture option on what we can see the slideshow of pictures in the display of small images tab screen saver under "Screen saver settings", but when you click "Preview" the screen just comes in white, and if we allow for the screen saver turns on automatically it is always white.

    Yes, we have a wireless keyboard/mouse, but the screen saver picture worked very well with them before, so we don't think it's having wireless devices?  Any help out there?

    Hello SuzyQarama,

    Thank you for posting.  As everything worked correctly until you have changed monitors, it seems you are having compatibility problems with your new monitor and your video card.  You will need to install the drivers for your new monitor and possibly for your both video card.  This will allow the video card and monitor to work better together.  This should force the video card to not show the resolutions that the monitor cannot handle.  Once you have performed these steps, you must then select the native resolution for your new monitor section personalize.

  • Two monitors and photo screen saver

    In Vista, how to make the photo screen saver to display pictures on both of my monitors?  I have nothing seems to do the job.  It worked fine under XP.

    Hi Boz,

    Vista doesn't have the function of screensaver photo on several monitors. You can use your favorite search engine to search for a third party application that can support.

  • Why the Photos app saves multiple copies of pictures?

  • Office and loading photo-screen saver

    Recently, Mac Book Pro, my wife (2009) started acting incorrectly when we go to active corners or the timer expires and should load the photos.

    If I look at the screen saver preferences, we have a relatively small designated images folder. Photos of maybe 20. In preferences, we can see many lines of small images and it may be that the number of lines continues to rise. If we use Active corners or the timer expires, the screen goes black and after a minute or two, the message loading Photos appears.

    I looked at all the pictures in the folder and none are corrupt. They all will normally open in preview or Graphic Converter. I tried to change to another photo folder and get the same problem.

    I think rather than Office preferences and screen saver is damaged or it is maybe something stored in a library that is corrupted.

    I tried to restart the laptop with the SHIFT key is pressed twice and that did not help.

    This who should I try next.

    Its operating system is 10.11.4 and the Mac laptop is mid-2009.

    Suggestions on what do I do then?

    Howdy Gil Woolley,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple.

    I understand that you run into problems when you try to use your photos as screensaver on Mac. your wife you mentioned that you have been able to open these photos on their own with no problem, so you have tried other photos also?  If this isn't the case, I suggest that you try and make the desktop folder photos after your screen saver to see if the problem persists:

    / Library/screen saver by default/Collections

    If Yes, then the next step that I suggest is to test this behavior in a new user account:

    How to test with another user account

    You can find out if unexpected behavior is related to the user file or a parameter in trying to reproduce the problem to a different user account. This process includes creating a new user account, connect to it and test for the issue.

    Create a test user account

    1. In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    2. Click the users and groups in the System Preferences window.
    3. Click the lock icon and enter an administrator name and password.
    4. Click on the button Add (+) below the list of users.
    5. Choose a type of user in the new pop-up menu.
    6. Give the user a name and first name, account name, and password.
    7. Click OK.
    8. Close the System Preferences window.

    If there are documents from your user account that you want to test with original, place a copy of these items in the shared folder in the users folder. Press the Option key while dragging a file in this folder to create a copy.

    Connect to the test user account

    Log out of your current user account by choosing logout in the Apple menu, and then open a session the new account that you created. If you are prompted to login with your iCloud or Apple ID account when you log in, skip this step.

    Try to reproduce the problem

    Try the same steps that caused the unexpected behavior to appear. For example, if you are unable to print, try printing from this user account. If you were unable to connect to the Internet, try to navigate on a website of this user account.

    How to test a question in another account on your Mac.

    Please report back with your results so that we can further this issue.

    Take care.

  • photo screen saver does not display correctly the photos

    I've been running the screen saver of pictures on my Windows XP computer for quite awhile with no problems.  Recently however photos have been displayed too high on my monitor actually cut the top of the photo.  I don't know what changed, but I would really like to know how to restore it.

    I have my system dual monitors.  Windows allows you to drag you monitors around do them work together properly.  I had to drag the main monitor to a higher position.  It corrects the problem.

    I notice that my Windows Vista Photo Screensaver has options to display photos, sepia, randomly, stretching, transition, sizing of the images etc, and Windows 7 has only a speed option.  What happened to the other options and how to really customize the screensaver?  It seems that the picture for the screen saver option has been reduced and made vary credits for display.  I have a laptop of Acer Thinline 4810 t - 4508 with Windows 7, Intel SU4100 and 4G of DDR3 memory.

  • Configuration for the Photos screen saver

    I'll put up my screensaver and I want to put in a loop so that after all the images have played through it will restart. I want to keep playing until I come back and click to use my computer again, but there is no button to push or settings anywhere to put it on repeat how can I do this?

    [Original title: Screensaver]

    On the screen of your server, you should choose picture and it should give you the setting you can select the location of your photos. If you do not see if check whether you use Windows Photo screen Server anything else.

    By default, it will repeat photos once it shows the last of them.

  • Screen saver repeats the same pictures over and over again

    My photo library is approximately 20,000 images. When I put all the images to use screensaver of ATV 4, usually by listening to my music in iTunes, the same images of 2-3 cents are shown over and over again. They remain the same, even after that ATV closes, then wakes up. When I push the ATV reboot, sometimes, certain images are replaced, but most remain the same.

    Is there a way to force the screen saver to make use of my library of Photos together?

    There is a small part only used temporarily photos of cache for the screen saver. If you want to view your complete library, you need to display manually.

  • How can I get the Photo screen saver to use sub folders?

    In XP, it would display all the photos on the hard drive, or if I chose "My pictures" he would use all the photos in this main folder, as well as all photos in sub folders. With Win7 I can't get to use the photos in a specific folder. IIRC, in XP, you can even select the files to include and exclude?

    My HD is partitioned and I use C: for OS and programs and D: for docs, FYI.

    It's working now. I have a click with the right button on the D: drive, wriggling on "Include in the library" and clicked on "Images". Not positive this is what fixed it, because I'm not sure how to UN - include it in the Library A - b test. But as long as it works...

  • Add default photos in the folder of my screen saver

    I created and associated with a folder with various .jpgs to serve as office and the photos screen saver. I would like to include a few of Apple's default screen saver photos (Yosemite, Earth, etc.). I can't find them on my hard drive, so can not find a way to include them in my folder.

    Old messages suggest to go to the office/Library of pictures, but this folder does not exist in my library. Someone suggested / Library/Application support/address book/images; I have opened a few of them, but they (predictable) images that are associated with some address book entries.

    Ideas or workaround solutions much appreciated

    Thank you very much.

    I wonder if not looking in the wrong place. You want/MacHD/Library/Desktop pictures /. It is present in all versions of Mac OS X, including Yosemite. "MacHD" refers only on behalf of bureau of your boot volume. Usually, it is "Macintosh HD".

    Don't know. The settings for the screen saver are located under this key:

    "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Photo.
    Gallery\slide show\Screensaver.

    but the values of 'Speed' seem to be 0, 1 or 2 (slow, medium, fast),
