Need to resize to print BUT do not want to crop image content PE 5.0

I have scanned an image into PE 5.0 The dimensions are:
Pixels: 2321x2915,
Document: 7.737x9.717,
Resolution: 300.
I want to print this image so it fits in a 5x7 frame. It's a portrait and there isn't any room to crop to fit without losing valuable image content. I've tried everything (I think); using my printer options to print to size, resizing in PE 5.0, etc. I still end up with a 'cropped photo'. I tried scanning to a 5x7 size and I still get an irregular size image that won't fit in a 5x7 frame. Is there any way to scale the dimensions of this photo, maintaining aspect ratio, to fit a 5x7 frame without cropping any content?
I have spent hours and hours trying to figure this out (very humbling experience :) - so any help will be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Mark & Juergen - thank you so much for your responses. Your examples are exactly what I got when I tried adding canvas and that's not what I wanted; it would only add canvas on two sides.
I guess I've worked with spreadsheets too long, scaling to fit the paper is a slam dunk in Excel :) I was hoping for some creative work-a-round but I guess it's time to get a bigger frame and a custom mat. Thank you, I really appreciate your time and expertise.

Cancelled print but will not cancel and comes back on to print same job

cancelled print but will not cancel and comes back on to print same job on on hp deskjet all in one

Hi,
From the Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and select Sevices. Browse down to the print spooler service, right click it and select Properties then click on the Stop button. Now browse to C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS and delete the job inside this folder - You may need to click a prompt to gain the appropriate authority to open the PRINTERS folder.
Restart the computer and you should find the job has been removed.

Epson r800 prints, but does not appear in Printer List: can't use Utilities

My Epson r800 prints, but does not appear in Printer List. It is connected via USB to the iMac. A Brother LH-2070N is connected via AirPort Extreme. I need to use Utilities to clean the head of cartridge, check levels, etc.. Is there a way to fix this problem?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)

For your Epson try this:
Hard Drive, Library, Printers (folder), Epson folder,
Inkjetprinter folder, Utilities folder and here you
will find Epson Printer Utility2. Click on it and it
should work.
Note. Epson utilities will not work unless the
Printer is directly connected to the computer.
Had the same issue with my 2200 photo and the above
worked.
Tried again after reinstalling the drivers. There is no separate Inkjet Folder, but the Printer Utility is within the Epson folder. Unfortunately, the r800 still does not appear in the Printer List, hence no utility.

On ipad to hp 6500A printer, message says contacting printer, but does not connect.

New 6500A prints wirelessly ok from vista laptop and desktop. also prints from ipad printbureau app. but when printing direct from ipad email or pic, I get message that it is "contacting printer", but will not go any further to connect

I have the HP Envy--but it's at my studio and I'm at home so I'm going off memory here, and my understanding of networking is,shall we say, limited. But, as the HP Envy is an AirPrint printer, you don't need Print and Share or any of the other wireless printing apps (although I have Print and Share).
I have a WiFi iPad 2. After Setting up the Envy, I just joined a local wireless network using the Envy touchscreen and then joined that same network on my iPad. Then, when I choose Print in, for example, Pages, the Envy appears after the Select Printer option.
All I can suggest is to make sure the Envy has a connection to the same wireless network as your iPad. (in my case I have to select a local network which does not have Internet access as my Envy isn't registered on the university-wide network.)
(I did complete the initial setup of the Envy on my laptop (MacBook Pro) (and which requires a USB cable for setup) and that gave me printing and scanning options from my MacBook. I don't see how that would have any bearing on the AirPrint function from the iPad.)
(I do think that the Envy printer is an amazingly useful little printer, especially with the ability to scan to a flash drive or SD card.)

HT1338 I have updated my new MacBook Pro for HP Photosmart All-in-One, but it still will not scan - it will print, but will not scan. How can I fix this?

I have installed the updates for my HP Photosmart All-in-One c309a. It prints, but will not scan. Tells me to update - I did that, but still won't scan. Any suggestions to make the scanner work?
This all worked perfectly with my old 2008 MacBook Pro.

Have you tried scanning from Image Capture or Preview?
A current driver is shown to be available for Mavericks (auto-downloaded):

But many people have found that manufacturer scanning control software doesn't work. They have to use the Apple-provided software.

Firefox also makes regular backups of your bookmarks in a folder named bookmarkbackups in your personal settings folder. You can restore the backup to your new Firefox, but unlike importing the HTML-format file, it is a complete drop-in replacement, so if you have saved new bookmarks you do not want to lose, the export/import method may work better for you.
By default, Windows hides your personal settings folder so the easiest way to access it is from inside Firefox. You can use either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This will launch a window showing your Firefox settings files.
You might want to back up this whole folder if you have other data you want to preserve from your XP computer.
Either way, you should find the bookmarkbackups folder here and when you click into it, find maybe 10 files with dates in their names.
The procedure to restore the file once you have it on removable media or some other convenient place is described in this article: [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]].
Regarding the other files and what you might find of use: [[Recovering important data from an old profile]].

Can't print from safari to hp 4620 appears to print but does not first to print from safari notes print no problem any suggestions?

Can't print from safari to hp 4620 appears to print but does not first time i have attempted to print from safari , notes print fine no problems. It is like on a desktop my print is sitting in the queue there are error messages only the usual print dialogue. I've turned the printer off and back on with no luck any suggestions?

That's very strange. See if clearing the cache in Safari will make it work. I'll include the steps below. If that doesn't help, install a different browser, such as Opera, to see if that will print from pages that Safari won't. If it will, then something is wrong with Safari. If it doesn't print, then the web pages might have printing blocked. There are sites that are doing that for copyright reasons. Let me know what you find.
To clear the cache on Safari:
Open Settings.
Select Safari
Touch Clear Cache.
Select Clear.
Touch Clear Cookies.
Select Clear.
Touch Clear History.
Select Clear.

I am currently using FormsCentral to distribute a form created in Acrobat. I need to add an option to one of the drop down fields but do not want to re-distribute the form due to reporting purposes. How can I do this?

You can open the form in Acrobat, select "File > Save a Copy", open the copy you just saved (it doesn't happen automatically), edit the dropdown to add the new item, save as a new file, and then Reader-enable the file by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools. The resulting PDF should work with FormsCentral just like the original.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you haven't done so already you need to migrate your mail account to iCloud first and do so IMMEDIATELY at the website Move
Then
Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.

We want to wirelessly share a printer within a group of 7 Macs, but do not want any other computers to be able to use the printer.

We want to share a wireless printer by a group of seven IMacs but do not want any other computers to have acess to the printer . How to do that?

Get an HDMI switcher. Plug in the ATV directly to the TV and then use the switcher on the other input.

With the phone connected, go to the info tab for the phone in iTunes. That's where you specify what contacts, calendars, e-mail accounts, etc. to sync and to what applications.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] 
 
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. 
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I have 3 apple devices and I use the same apple ID for all 3. I would like to create a new I'd for one of my devices, but do not want to loose the apps on that device. Anyone know how I can do this?

Create a new ID:
On the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into the other one. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into the other one. Make sure that under You can be reached at only the newID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with the new one
- Settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out your ID and sign in with the new one.
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
