How can I reduce the size of a photo PROPORTIONALLY? With my old Macmini I was able to place the pointer on the bottom right corner of the picture, hold down the shift key and move the pointer to achieve the desired size.

You'll need to use a 3rd party editor like one of these:
Some Image Editors That Support layers:
Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac - $79
Rainbow Painter - $30
Imagerie - $38
Acorn - $50
Pixelmator - $60
Seashore - Free
Portraits and Prints - Free
GIMP for Mac - Free
Xee 2.1 - free
My personal preference would be for Photoshop Elements for Mac. Most of these will let you select and copy a head from one photo, paste it into another photo, resize and place where you need it.
PSE has a specific feature just for that function. I belive the Adobe site for PSE has a demo video of that feature.

How can i sync my iTunes library from my iPhone with my new mac mini

Recently my hard drive failed on my mac mini. I had burned a bunch of CDs on the old mac mini and then sync'd it with my iphone. Now the CDs are on my iphone but not on the new mac mini. How can I sync my itunes library from my iphone to my new mac mini?

The iphone is not a backup device.
You need to copy everything from the backup copy of your computer computer to your new one.

You need to use the old ID and password to delete the iCloud account. After you delete the old account, you can sign in with the new ID in iCloud.

How can i use dual 23" apple cinema hd display on a new mac mini

i have the old apple displays and really dont want to let go of them yet. Model # M8537ZM/A.
I currently have them both hooked up to my G5 powerPC, thru the DVI to ADC adapter. Model # M8661LL/B
Im tired of not being able to update my plug ins and some sites have become unable to even view without being up to date.
So im looking to buy a new Mac, but i will NOT spend another $2000+ for apple to call it outdated in a few years.
The Mac Mini looks to be a good buy only if i can it up to be on my DUAL 23" Apple Cinema Displays, Model # M8537ZM/A.
Please let me know what i would need to buy to make this all work, or if it not possable.
Thanks in advance.

Wow, I loved those monitors. Ten years ago. If they're still working for you, terrific; they are quite nice. Unfortunately, the ADC cable is going to make using them with modern Macs a bit of a Rube Goldberg experience.
The late-2012 Mini has a Thunderbolt port and an HDMI port. Both can be used to drive those displays.
Thunderbolt Port
1- Buy a Thunderbolt/Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB570Z/B/mini-displayport-to-dvi-adapter
2- Now buy a DVI to ADC adapter. Not cheap, and Apple doesn't carry them anymore, but they can be found.
http://www.amazon.com/Apple-DVI-to-ADC-Adapter/dp/B0000E2O14
HDMI Port
1- Buy an HDMI to DVI Adapter. One of these comes in the box with every Mini, so I won't link it.
2- Now buy a DVI to ADC adapter. Not cheap, and Apple doesn't carry them anymore, but they can be found.
http://www.amazon.com/Apple-DVI-to-ADC-Adapter/dp/B0000E2O14
Note that each DVI to ADC adapter will need access to AC power to provide power to each monitor. You already know this if you have these adapters.
Just something to think about: There are some people still running old Macs with ADC output who are desperate to find good-condition, larger-size ADC monitors. You might be able to sell yours on eBay or through some other means for more than enough to finance your purchase of new, higher-resolution HDMI or DVI monitors and avoid all the adapters and extra electrical taps.

Can I avoid re-syncing my iPod once synced with an old Mac to a new Mac ?

So, I recently bought a new Mac, the problem is that I had my iPod synced with iTunes on my old Mac. I would like to know if there is a way to transfer the let's say ownership of iTunes (of my iPod) to my new Mac. Instead of having to sync my iPod with my new Mac. Because, as you know an iPhone, an iPod or even an iPad can only be synced with a computer at a time. I mean is there a way to avoid to have to re-sync my iPod with my new Mac.
Thank you!
-Pedro

Use Migration Assistant to copy all your user data (including iTunes Library) from old computer to new computer.
Then the iPod will sync as if connected to old computer.
I mean is there a way to avoid to have to re-sync my iPod with my new Mac
Never plug it into new Mac.
However, that's not really what you want.
You don't want to erase and reinstall everything.
See my first paragraph.

My iPhone 4S shows I have over 6 GB of memory used for mail yet the mailboxes are more or less empty. Where is the memory going and how can I reduce it?

My iPhone 4S shows I have over 6 GB of memory used for mail yet the mailboxes are more or less empty. Where is the memory going and how can I reduce it?

I found a post with this solution that worked for me - .Do a backup, then download ibackupbot. It lets you look into the contents of that backup. Look in system files>mediadomain>library>sms>attachments. I found a ton of huge files related to long deleted texts. ibackupbot let me delete all that old crap. I then restored the phone with that now modifec backup and Bingo! freed up 9 GB. No problems.
But note, if you are not technically inclined you probaly don't want to be digging around and deleting back up files. You delete the wrong thing and you could jack up your phone badly. Be careful.

What format are they? Tiif? Jpeg? You can compress them with a lot of apps - including Preivew and just about any graphics editor out there. I'm not sure that 45mb would crash iPhoto thogh, are yo sure that's the cause? I know that some folks have mentioned pixel dimensions causing issues, as can color profiles.

Why is my word and pdf files so large? How can I reduce the size?

My document contains mostly photos from a database via a path to the actual jpeg photos on disk.
There are 39 jpeg photos + a small amount of text with each photo.
The 39 jpeg photos on the disk add up to be 5.79 mb.
If I export the crystal reports document as [Microsoft Word (97-2003) Non Editable] the, the file size is 36.8 mb.
If I export the same data as a [Microsoft Word (97-2003) Editable] the file size is only 3.1 mb.
That is a difference of 33.7 mb! Why?
Also, when I export the same data to a PDF file it is much larger than I think it should be; 12.7 mb.
Why is my word and PDF files so large?
How can I reduce the size of the word and PDF files? (without reducing the photo quality).
Are there any tools to post process the Word or PDF files to reduce the file size?

You can't, extra size is to hold the details

How can I reduce the size of a pdf file for emailing?

I want to send a pdf file which is 8 mb, it has bounced in an email because it is too big, how can I reduce the size of the pdf file for emailing?

Sometimes a simple "Save As" will reduce the file size slightly, but probably not enough to pass the <8 mb threshold of your recipient, as you need.
You've probably seen it, try the next option in the Save As menu, "Reduced Size PDF," and make it compatible with the latest version possible, again considering the recipient. This suggestion assumes Acrobat X. You don't say which version you're using, but this tool was available at least going back to Version 8, but in a different place, you'll have to hunt.
If all that doesn't work, you could remove some images from the source document, which also will reduce the overall size.
Best luck.

How can I reduce the size of these files?
Can i not use this files and see the tabscripts or others object htmlb?
thanks

Hi Benito,
these files contain all "stuff" that the BSP Extensions need to work. If you decide to code your own HTML content you don't need them.
The other thing to consider is that these files should really be cached b your browser so this overhead only happens once.
Cheers

How can i reduce the size of Images in MIDlet

Hi all,
How can i reduce the size of Images in Form,bcoz they are covering lots of spaces in form due to that other items are not displaying in specific order.
Best regrads

Better you can use Canvas class and using drawImage() function you can show the image. Before that you have to Get the maximum size of your phone screen using the following:
x = (width/2) - (image.getWidth()/2);
y = (height/2) - (image.getHeight()/2);

How can I reduce the size of "Other" usage?

I unable to update my IOS because "Other" memory usage is too high and I have insufficient memory available for the upgrade. What does other include and how can I reduce its size?

You can update using iTunes on your computer, which will bypass the space requirement that is imposed on over the air downloads.
To reduce the size of other, back up the phone, restore it using iTunes, then restore your backup. That should get it down to a reasonable size.

How can I reduce the size of IPhoto ?

I have tested IPhoto with a few hundred pictures.
I do not find this software very user-friendly, in particular because I can no longer locate the files of these pictures. I kept fortunately a copy of my complete set of my photo collection.
I removed all pictures from IPhoto, but the application shows a size of 600 Mb.
How can I reduce the size of IPhoto and recover this storage space?

patrick
in particular because I can no longer locate the files of these pictures.
There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
Rolls in the iPhoto Window (View -> Film Rolls) correspond exactly with the Roll Folders in the Originals Folder in the iPhoto Library Folder. You can move photos between Rolls, you can rename rolls, edit them, create them, as long as you do it via the iPhoto Window. Check out the Info Pane (wee 'i', lower left) the name and date fields are editable. Edit a Roll Name using the Info Pane, the Roll Folder in iPhoto Library Folder/Originals will also have the new name.

Use the Get Info window to remove unwanted language resources.
