Album photos size and storage

Where are my album photos stored physically? Does iTunes compress photos when I copy and paste them into the albums? If not, I will use a lot of space just on the photos... Does anyone know?

Thank you! I can't understand what difficult it is for iTunes to link every album picture to each song on every album. Then we didnt have to save album picture for every song. Maybe I'm a nerd, but I really like the album pictures to show up on my iphone when i play...it doesn't if i dont mark the whole album and paste in the picture...

  • Is there and optimum photo size and resolution for use on the ipad?

    Is there an optimum photo size physical and resolution for use on the Ipad.

    It depends on whether you want to zoom in the image. If you don't, pre-converting them to the native screen resolution of your iPad 2, 1024*768 (assuming 4:3 aspect ratio, as is the case with most Point and shoot (but not DSLR, which, generally, use 3:2!)) will make sureyou use the least storage and will always have the fastest file transfer.
    If zooming is important and you have pictures over 16 Mpixels you want to fully zoom in, then, you'll need to use third-party apps like Photo Manager Pro (review: http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/all-one-photo-viewer-roundup-70-price-drop-bes t-image-viewer ), which doesn't downsize your pics and doesn't use much more storage than it should.
    Let me know if you have further questions.

  • Photo size and uploading to Apple

    I'm in the process of making a quite large iPhoto book for my SIL for her b'day. The photos are a compiltion from many of mine, and others sent to me by family members. They are all different sizes, resolution, color and B/W.
    After getting them organized, doing a bit of fixing on PS, I now am ready to get them into iPhoto.
    Is it wise to take them all into Lightroom where I can do an easy batch change of the resolution? I have read where they should be around 300. It is easy to change them and the test prints I did at home looked ok, even on the small ones that aren't too big to start with. On the export menu of Lightroom, I have the option of stating whether I want them to be exported at JPG, Tiff etc., and I can change the resolution and photo size too.
    I probably would export them as JPG, 300 res. and not change their size. Is this ok for the iPhoto books?
    Also, if they are of a higher resolution, I assume it will take quite a while to upload them to Apple even with high speed fiberoptic cable internet service.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.
    Thanks, Allie

    Allie:
    DO NO USE Lightroom as it messes up the metadata and makes the files not useable in iPhoto. You do not have to preprocess the files to set the dpi to 300 specifically. The only important feature of the file is the pixel dimensions. If the pixel dimensions are large enough as you state you can leave them as is. iPhoto will fit them into the frame you choose and the dpi will be determined that way. No matter what size the files are the book is converted into a pdf file for uploading and printing. My last book of nearly 100 pages came in at approx. 25MB.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Database size and Storage Metrics are mismatching

    Hi,
    When I look at the storage metrics for one of our SharePoint Web Application root site collection it shows the top sized site as 28.2% of parent and the size as 21178.5 MB. When we calculate the total size of the site collection from
    that it should 74994 MB. But when I see the size of the content database ( this is the only site collection in this content database) it shows 185661.5 MB as the size and 26852.5 MB as the space available. When I run the report (Disk Usage By Top Tables)
    on that database it brings the list with dbo.AllDocStreams table at the top (Data - 80333 MB) followed by dbo.AuditData (Data - 48305 MB) followed by dbo.AllUserData (Data - 8593 MB).
    3 years back we migrated this SharePoint Web Application from 2007 to 2010.
    I saw that the recycle bin has only 30 day worth data. 
    How can we reduce the size of the database according to what it shows in the storage metrics? Appreciate any help.
    Thanks.

    so... your database has:
    80gb in files (includes version history)
    50gb in audit data
    8.5gb of list data
    plus ~27gb of free space for growth between backups
    total of ~165gb (which is close enough to the 185661.5 that you listed)
    you need to split up the site collection, and then spread the site collections across multiple databases.

  • Taking photos to disk without losing photo size and quality

    I have tried everything I can think of to create photo cd's and dvd's with my photos downloaded to aperture, but every time I try to burn the photos are decreased dramatically in size and quality. I cannot give the cd's to clients, because the photos are no longer enlargeable. Any ideas please help.

  • Photos - my photos are duplicated in Albums, Photo Stream and Events.  Does this take additional memory?

    I need instruction and not understanding Photos.  When I put photos from my Canon Camera through the Apple Connector - SD Card Reader, the photos are displayed in the Photo App.  They are duplicated in many areas:  Photos, PhotoStream, Albums, and Events.  Is this the way Apple does this?  Can I just have photos in one place in the app?  BTW: my PhotoStream setting is on on the iPAD4 and on my iPHONE 5.  Should I turn off?  If they are duplicated in all areas, are they taken up space on my iPAD?Please advise.
    Also, can I delete multiple photos on my iPAD4 without selecting each one?  I don't seem to see a Select All option.  Also, I am not sure when I see this dialogue box on the iPAD4, but it seems I only get Delete Everywhere instead of just Delete.  Why?  Is there a setting I need to know about.
    When I connect my iPAD4 through the hardwire to my PC, can I just create a folder and copy my photos on my iPAD4 to my PC.  They will not remove them from the iPAD4, correct?

    Basically within the photo app, there are sever views available, each having a different purpose, but only one file per image (at least I'm fairly certain that's how it works). Start off with the Photos section of the user guide (link below). It may not answer all of your questions, but will give you a good starting place.

  • Photo sizes and adobe software

    Hi
    I'm attempting to make my first web banner in illustrator.
    I have a photo that I bought of Istockphoto, it is 851 x 546 px
    I created a new document in Illustrator 800 x 400 px.
    I then opened up the photo in illustrator and it opened in a new document in illustrator. It didn't look as large as the artboard in my banner document.
    I then copy and pasted the photo onto the banner document. I would have though that because the photo is 800 pixels across that it would be the same width as my artboard in the banner document, but it's much smaller.
    can anyone explain this to me. I'm new to digital design.
    David.

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    AI works based on a document resolution setting which defaults to 300 DPI and will resample any other artwork that has a different DPI.
    Illustrator does not resample a raster image to the Document Raster Effects setting when you "open" it.
    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    can anyone explain this to me. I'm new to digital design.
    David,
    "Pixels" as a unit of measure in an Illustrator document is completely bogus. It does not really mean pixels. It means points, or 1/72 inch. Illustrator is an object-based program. It can contain any number or combination of text objects, vector objects, or raster objects in the same document. Each raster image in an Illustrator document has its own PPI.
    So, for example, you can have a 300 ppi image that measures 300 "pixels" (actually points) in width according to the rulers and a 72 ppi image that measrues 300 "pixels" (actually points) in width according to the rulers in the same document. In that case, the rulers will indicate that both of those two images "measure 300 pixels" in width. That's ridiculous. One has many more pixels within the supposed "300 pixels width" than the other.
    If you then export that document as a single raster image, then everything on the page will be rasterized to whatever ppi you specify in your export settings. Thus, any raster images contained in the document would be re-rasterized (resampled) in the exported result.
    So you can't think of the "pixels" indicated on Illustrator's rulers as indicators of the actual number of pixels contained in a raster image on the page. A pixel is not a unit of linear measure because a pixel can be any size you scale it to. The inclusion of "pixels" as a unit of ruler measure in Illustrator is just a confusing "convenience" for those who want to think in terms of the pixels in the final exported raster image.

  • Photo Album Photo Size

    I have tried the PSE Photo Album but cannot get an entire photo to show on an album page. Photos are cropped by the program (sometimes showing just an arm or sky). I have enlarged the photo on the album page using the 'arrows' but cannot get all of the original to show, all that happens is the arm is made larger.
    It is rather frustrating to have a photo album feature that does not show an entire photo. It would seem I am missing something. I would be grateful if anyone could explain if this is normal for Photo Album or whether this might be a software glitch. The guides I have already watched do not provide any help about how accurately the Photo Album includes a photograph.

  • Employee Photos - Recommended Size and Resolution

    Hello All,
    Please can anyone advise on the recommended photo size and resolution to be used to provide the highest quality photo available on the infotype header ? Also, if there is a difference to use the photo format BMP or JPEG ?
    This information is required in order to ensure that there is a minium photo standard commuinicated before starting the implementation on SAP HR system.
    All information or experiences of photo size and/or resolution used will be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi,
    This is not completely true regarding the format.
    You may use other formats as well : Employee Photo Restrictions

  • Reduced Photo Size

    I've got a problem. i had 7 gb of photos in my library, also they were backed up using backup on my firlite hard drive. I don't know how this happened, but my library size was reduced to 238 mb, reducing each individual photo size, and making many of the photos nearly unviewable. I didn't notice this until after the next backup was scheduled (they are scheduled every week), so the photos backed up on the hd are the same way too. I'm sure there isn't, but it would be awesome if there was some way to get these photos back.
    Thanks

    cheez277:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. This is a long shot but you might try SubrosaSoft FileSalvage, in it's demo mode, to see what it can find on your external HD that it can recover. It will tell you what it finds before you have to commit to purchase. If there hasn't been much activity on that HD may not all of the files have been overwritten and may be recoverable.
    I don't know how your files could have been downsized. Are they about 360 x 270 in size? That's the thumbnail size for most files.
    Do a search on your boot drive for images whose sizes are greater than about 100 KB to see what's on it. It's a long shot but give it a go.
    Do you Twango?

  • I currently have an iPhone 5, 16gb. I Do Not want to Loose any photos or albums by deleting them from my phone and not backing them up correctly. My iCloud backup is only storing my "Photo Stream" and I can not locate them in iTunes after I sync/Back up.

    I currently have an iPhone 5, 16gb. My storage is almost full on my phone. There are only 80 mg available. I am new to icloud and also have always had trouble navigating around iTunes. (Even after endlessly reading through support and help topics as well as calling)   My concern is about Not Losing any of my photos if I delete them from my phone. I have to delete a large portion of my camera roll as well as the Album Folders I have created. Although it would be great if there was a way to just keep my albums still. I have already backed them up to an external hard-drive, my computer and a geek stick. I'm not trying to be too paranoid about these photos, but, they are all of my 3 children. There are over 4000 pictures stored on my phone. Some photos go back as far as 2009.   Can you offer any information about backing up my Camera Roll, not just "Photo Stream", and albums I've created On my phone? I read that it's good to back photos up on both iTunes as well as icloud. I even purchased extra icloud storage to back them all up.   I do regularly back up/sync, my phone to my computers.   However, I cannot even locate where they are stored on iTunes, let alone look at them. And as far as my iCloud backup, it only stores the new pictures from "Photo Stream".   Please offer any advice you may have. I do not use up a lot of storage on my phone other than Photos and Contacts (it's a work phone).   I would definitely be able to sleep better knowing my children can one day see these pictures of themselves. I appreciate your time. Thank you,

    First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
    Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
    Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
    What computer do you have?

  • Questions on photos and storage

    I have a few questions about photos and storage... If you can just answer one of these, that's fine and thanks for the help!
    How do I see how much space my iPhoto photos are taking on my hardrive?
    I have Time machine which backs up, but concerned that I'm getting too many pictures.  When I do "Get Info" on the hardrive it says 640GB Capacity with 254GB used. I'm assuming that includes all my photos, and that Time machine only backs up and is not the active storage for those photos?
    What is advisable for available GB space on this size computer?
    I have my photos on the hardrive and the time machine, is it also advised to have in a cloud-based storage system to be safe? Or some other place.  Just checking what others do with this.

    1 - it is a really good idea to start new threads with new questions - threadjacking a year old solved thread on a totally different subject will not provide the best coverage and the best answers
    2 - Do NOT uncheck the option to copy imported items to the iPhoto library - it is a really, really bad idea that will create many problems for yo and has no advantages of any sort - see the user tip on file management in iPhoto for more details - iPhoto and File Management
    3 - take the time to learn how to use iPhoto and the concept of using a database for management photos rather than a file based system like you are used to - it is much different and much more powerful - but there is a learning curve and a different thought process
    4 - yes you can always export anything or everything from iPhoto for use on any other system - see the user tip on exporting for details - Exporting From iPhoto
    5 - always remember that you never access your photos directly - iPhoto totally replaces the finder for managing your photos - see the user tip on accessing photos for more details - How to Access Files in iPhoto

  • I still don't totally understand the difference on my iPhone between PhotoStream (with iCloud icon), Photos (the icon) and Albums and Camera Roll (under Photos icon) and and Camera Roll (under Camera icon).  I want to delete photos from my iPhone 4.

    I  don’t  understand the difference on my iPhone between PhotoStream (with iCloud icon), Photos (the icon) and Albums and Camera Roll (under Photos icon) and and Camera Roll (under Camera icon).  They seem to be more or less the same thing, but deleting photos in one place does not delete them elsewhere.
    When I tried to import from my camera to my iMac computer the computer would not recognized 900 of the 920 photos on the camera so I had to (successfully) use the Image Capture application to import them.
    I want to delete photos from my iPhone 4 in order to free up storage (I only have 8GB.)  But in synching I do not want to delete any images from my iPhoto on my computer.
    Is there a way that I can Delete All under Edit in either Photos or Camera on my iPhone and check about 20 ijmages to remain on the iPhone?  I could find no command to Select All and then uncheck the 20 photos I want to keep.
    I have the 8GB iPhone and the iMac with OS 10.9.2 and iPhoto '09 Version 8.1.2.
    Help!

    I have Version 6.1.3 because the clogged storage will not allow me to upload Version 7.1.  Catch 22.  This is basically a storage issue, I believe.  I cannot delete enough stuff on my iPhone to allow me to either back up or upload the new OS 7.  I am unwilling to pay for more storage in iCloud, so I want to delete stuff I don't need.  But I haven't yet figured out how to successfully do that.  I synch my phone and computer.  I want to delete mail on the Mail app and photos and still keep my photos on my computer on iPhoto, but not on my phone.  I seem unable to do that.  Any advice?
