Any good, basic universal graphics editing software available?

Hi - I'm looking for any suggestions on a very basic image/graphics editor for manipulating jpeg and tiff files. very simple stuff like cutting and pasting portions of image files and pasting to create a single montage page. don't need any photo enhancement features at all. I have Photoshop Elements 3, but its slow and overkill on intel OS X for what I need. I suspect there's a good shareware program out there, but was curious if anyone has found a universal app.
Many thanks!

Graphic converter is outstanding and always has been. It is available in a universal format. The author of it has been working on it for many years, updates it all the time, is very responsive if you have a question and the program is cheap for all you get. It will do about 90% of what Photoshop will but for about one tenth the price. It works with more than just images and can convert file formats and do just about anything you would need.
I have been using it or about 10 years now and am just an amateur who dabbles a bit with photographs.

hi, i just want to buy ipad2 from my friend. but he uses it for different purpose and i want to use it to store and edit photos clicked from my digital camera. is it possible to transfer photos from my camera to ipad and secondly if i am out on some work ie. away from my office, can i edit or email them to any destination on the net. are the photo editing softwares available on appstore ?

iPhoto is apples editing app, there are lots more to choose from.
There is an adapter to let you connect cameras or flash cards for photo transfers to the iPad.

With SO MUCH photo editing software available, what would be the best for me if I am a digital camera newby? I do not need Photoshop CC! I do not want to spend $700 bucks! My camera is a Nikon D90. Please help.

Where did you come up with the $700 figure?
Photography plan - $9.99/month or $119/year - Creative Cloud Photography plan : Adobe Creative Cloud
Single App - $19.99/month
Complete plan - $49.99/month or $599/yr - Creative Cloud free trial & plans : Adobe Creative Cloud
Ah - If you wish to cancel early yeah $74.99 which would total for the year at $899.88. But that final total would be if you canceled in the 12th month but if you plan on keeping it that long might as well go for the annual contract. Then cancel at the end of the term limit if you need to.
If you are not sure what to get, Either Elements as was suggested by Peru Bob or the photography plan.

Best video editing software available 2014 for iMac

Need suggestions for best video editing software available Nov 2014 for iMac.

If by best you mean the most editing tools and effects available, and used by most professional video studios, that would be either the Adobe Premiere Pro suite, or Avid. Neither of which is cheap. Final Cut Studio used to have a pretty generous share of that professional market, but FCP X was such a radical change to the app (not to mention not even being able to open standing FCS projects with it), many former FCS users switched to Adobe or Avid.
For inexpensive and still a lot of power, FCP X is a steal.

New Satellite C660-1F1 windows 64-bit -cant use graphics editing software

Hi Guys....any help appreciated...this is the message I sent to Toshiba support but they are taking their time getting back to me:
Important information: Satellite C660-1F1
Key Features
- Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (pre-installed, Toshiba-HDD recovery)
- Intel Core i3-380M Processor
- DVD-SuperMulti +-R (Double Layer)
- 2048 MB DDR3 RAM (1066MHz)
- 39.6cm (15.6") TruBrite HD (1366 x 768) High Brightness display with LED backlight with 16:9 aspect ratio
Hi... I purchased my laptop about a month ago from Argos and it has a 2 year warranty. I have one big problem - the 2 main graphics editing programmes that I use do not work. Both Corel Paintshop Photo Pro x3 and Adobe CS5 can both be installed and opened but as soon as I try to save a photo or edit a photo both of the programmes crash and i have to close it down by using end task in task manager.
This happened when I installed the full versions of both programmes which I purchased and it also happens when you download the trial versions from both the Corel and the Adobe download sites. I have been on so many help forums for both adobe and corel and the most helpful pointer came from one of the designers at Adobe - a Chris Cox.
He very logically stated that as it happened in both of these 2 graphics editing packages that it was most likely a problem with the graphics card drivers or the actual graphics card hardware. I purchased a 64-bit operating system to handle precisely these 2 programmes which can be exhausting on the system. I know i only have 2 GB RAM at the moment but it has been happening with other people...some who even have 8GB and 16GB of RAM which is what I will have in the next few weeks. However, not if I cannot rectify this problem. Please can you help/advise the best solution. This seems to be a problem only with the 64-bit systems. Both Adobe and Corel are 64-bit compatible.
There is also a message that appears when I open Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended....which is as follows:
...."Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements, Check the video card manufacturers website for the latest software."
I then click that message away ....use the programme, edit something, try to save and it crashes. I have gone through all troubleshooting directions and ran countless diagnostics but there only seems to be one common denominator between the 2 different programmes and that is my Toshiba laptop.... I even tried installing another large photo editing software package to test it and I had the same result - an application crash.
Please help! Thanking you in advance.
Kind regards
John

Hello John
Have you already got some answer from Toshiba?
What to say my friend? In my opinion the best advice you can get from Corel and Adobe. They have best experience with own product and have probably tested them on different hardware platforms.
Notebook manufacturers offer different notebook models with different hardware configurations. Some of them are cheap and offered with average hardware. The performance is not the best but good enough for every day activities like internet, office, mailing and so on.
On other hand there are notebooks with excellent and powerful hardware. Very often such notebooks cost twice as much as cheap low budget products.
Please dont understand me wrong but your C notebook is not the best one for usage with such powerful software.
I really dont know what Toshiba can do about it. I can imagine that you need other graphic driver but graphic driver support for mobile computers is pretty limited and I dont think you can do much about that.
What you can try is to download and install driver from graphic card manufacturer but you must do this on your own risk.
Sorry friend but I dont have any other advice for you. I just think youve bought wrong notebook for such complex graphic operations. 2 GB RAM? I dont know.
Good luck.

Are there any good basic/feature phones that have been discontinued?

My brother currently has the Samsung Intensity II and it's giving him a lot of problems. After troubleshooting with tech support it is best for him to replace the phone. The insurance deductible is $45 but the phone will likely be refurbished. I am seeking a non-smartphone for him that I can purchase via eBay or Craigslist. Because he is 16, he wants some type of smartphone. Preferably the iPhone or a low/mid-grade Android phone. I won't allow him to get a smartphone until he gets a job and pays for the phone and monthly data plan.
I am sort of disappointed in the selection of basic phones on the Verizon website - there are only 7 phones under $100. It seems backwards that there are 23 smartphones under $100. The conspiracy theorist in me would think this is a ploy to coax customers to move towards smartphones but I digress. I have been looking at the Samsung Brightside and the ZTE Adamant (discontinued - not offered on vzw.com) and they seem pretty cool and reasonably priced on eBay. Are there any other basic or feature phones that you would recommend [including discontinued and upcoming phones]?
I would rather not purchase a phone directly through Verizon so that it does not extend the contract or interfere with his upgrade date (to ensure that he will be able to afford the phone of his choice when he is ready).

Another vote for the Env3 - son and daughter both had them (18 and 21) and they were more than adequate phones and worked well for them. My son (now nearing 24) is still using his though he is eligible for an upgrade now - he likes it and sees no reason to change until it quits on him.
The Alias (original) was a good phone for my daughter before her Env3, and I really enjoyed my LG Voyager, touchscreen. None of the phones require a data plan, if you can find them.

PowerPC G5 / Video or Photography editing software available?

Hello,
I have acquired a PowerPC G5 / The OSX version I have 10.5.8 and of course this is an older model MacPro.

New macbook owner - any good free burning software?

Hello,
I'm wondering if there are any good freeware options for burning software - a package to duplicate dvds/cds (audio and data) and burn files to a disc.
Thanks in advanced
MacBook 2.0 Ghz 2 GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.7)

i use Toast (but you have to pay)
a REALLY good freeware application is liquid CD
it lets you burn disk images, copy disks, burn music, data etc.
Its a really great software, and what makes it even better, IT'S FREE!

Unlock PDF for editing: any good non-online software?

My users are dealing with a lot of PII and I don't want them to send these PDFs to these online websites in order for them to get unlocked.
They all have Adobe Acrobat on their machines but I am pretty sure that you cannot unlock a document to editing with that.
Any good software you guys recommend on getting?
Thanks!!!

Any suggestions on a good video editing software for MacBook Pro

I have just joined the MacBook Pro community would like an idea for good video software options

Also, compare the hardware specification (not just minimums) needed to actually
use the video editing software; plus consider external storage options of huge
capacity since most portable computers don't really have all that much storage.
A few years ago some suggested Avid Media Composer as professional software
but then in the same discussion, said the MacBook Pro may not be able to handle
the demands of the application; and went on to suggest an Apple Mac Pro tower.
Some software needs require further study prior to committing resources & funds
to discover perhaps the product may/may not be adequate. Avid likely is still costly.
Hopefully you can get a great editor with a few creative options, for a decent price.
Good luck & happy computing!

CANON XA10 10.6.8 Good Video Editing Software

Ok, here's another Canon XA10 user needing help. Just bought the camera and will need to get video editor. Any good suggestions as to which brand plus whatever necessary converter software also if needed? Read a lot of the other posts from everywhere, but can't seem to sort it all out yet.
Please help. Thanks.

I just installed OuickTime 7 Pro in my Mac Pro Ver 10.6.8. The video I am trying to view is codec h264 Compression dvcpro 50 hd. I have audio but no video. It says I need other software with QuickTime for it to work. Dose anyone know what I need?
H.264 video should be supported by your basic Snow Leopard operating system. The DVCPRO HD family of codecs is part of the Apple "Pro" codecs package which is normally installed as part of a "Pro" video editing suite installer or contemporaneously installed separately as part of one of the newer pro editing apps like FCPX. if you already have one of these pro suites or apps installed or available, then re-install the correct codec package that is missing. If not, you will need to purchase a Pro suite or app to be able to install the required codec package.

I am looking for a good photo editing software, only editing, not sharing etc

any recommendation for a good photo editing software for starters, only to enhance picture, play arounf with colours in black and white background etc.

In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
The Gimp (free)
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
Pixelmator ($50 approx)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
