Hi willielois, you can use Photoshop CC or Photoshop Elements to do this. I have shared a video tutorial that can help you learn to do this.

How to make background image editable in a template

I have built a template and would like to make the background
image editable, but not the rest of the settings in the body style.
(I'm not sure of my terminology yet.) The background image is
currently set in the locked part of the page. I've tried to insert
an editable region in the html code, as I cannot get to the
background image by clicking on it or selecting on the Design page.
But I am not allowed to change the code in this way.
What is the best way to do this? I'm not sure how to make a
div of this one setting. Or even if that is what is needed.
Thanks for any suggestions.

So to give a different background image to different pages using CSS.
Create a CSS file in your Dreamweaver site.
Link it to your pages.(in your head tag like so: <link href="path/to/stylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />)
In your HTML code find the body tag and give it an id (like so: <body id="myUniqueID">)
In your stylesheet write the following code:
#myUniqueID{
background: #color, url("path/to/image.jpeg") repeat);
And now extrapolate the above steps and code to your other pages and voila, you now have different background images for your different pages.

Hi. When you were in the recovery drive doing permissions, did you try and run a repair of the boot drive? Did you try single user mode? Try these first and then go back and try to reinstall the operating system.When I say repair boot drive I don't mean permissions. There are both options in disk utilities.When you open disk utilities ,you will see in the left column two drives plus possibly a boot partition that look like an external driv. click on the second drive and in first aid use repair disk. If you still can't boot and it will not let you restore, you may have to do a clean install. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH18869?viewlocale=en_US

Is this background helpful for learning Oracle11i?

I have some financial experience and I have got the Oracle database Manageemnt OCP certificate.
Is this background helpful for learning Oracle11i?
How much time should I spend, another OCP's time?

Hi Frank:
Having a background in the world of finance plus an OCP is certainly a very good start.
However, 11i is a very different thing to "normal" Oracle, and so, too, is being an 11i DBA. I wish I could point you to loads of good study material, but there isn't that much around.
That said, I can recommend "Installing, Upgrading and Maintaining Oracle Applications 11i (or, When Old Dogs Herd Cats - Release 11i Care and Feeding) (Paperback)" ISBN-10: 1411616421, ISBN-13: 978-1411616424.
There is a website that may be of some use: http://becomeappsdba.blogspot.com/2006/07/installing-oracle-applications-become.html.
Also, have a browse around for similar. Finally, Oracle courses may be useful. I attended one - it was OK, but hardly worth the money. The documentation, though, is good and useful.
How long it would take you to become proficient is impossible to say, as it depends on your study materials, and the time you are able to devote to learning. But, it's not, IMHO, an easy, quick thing to pick up, even with OCP prior learning, etc.

Help editing 720p video On Sony FW21m Laptop

Hi I wonder if you can help me? I would like to edit 720p at 60 frames per second but my laptop is a little under spec so I am wondering if you can make any suggestions without replacing the mahine. Heres what im running:
Windows 7 64 bit
Adobe CS3 64 bit
4GB kit (2GBx2) DDR2 PC2-6400 • CL=6 • Unbuffered
320gb Hard drive 7200 rpm with Serial ATA-300, 16 MB,
Processor is Intel Core 2 duo P8600 2.4ghz (3M Cache, 2.40 GHz, 1066 MHz FSB)
The graphics card is Graphics Controller: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 - 256 MB
The computer has a firewire port and usb 2.0
I have an external 1000GB 5400rpm drive
and a 500GB 7200rpm 16mb cache Internal drive which I have a usb external enclosure for But I could get a firewire enclosure if that would help
I want to be able to edit fotage from a Canon EOS 550D at frame rates 1280 x 720 at 60 frames per second the files are .MOV with h.264 encoding
It would also be helpful if I could occassionally use 1920 1080 at 30 frames. But this is not essential
Is there any way I can edit these files using Adobe Premiere - any version? or are there any pther packages that may help?
What improvements can I make? Would it help to set up an external firewire drive to output to. Additionally an external USB 7200rpm to source the clips from? And how does this set up work?
Any suggestions would be really appreciated
Simon
Im not sure what additional modifications I can make to help edit this footage. I have looked at upgrading the processor to an I5 but im not sure if it is possible or would help.
Alternatively if this is a lost cause can anyone refer me to a cheap laptop that is capale of editing 720p 60 frame files from a Canon DSLR

I once worked in a film crew where i made a steadycam from a brick, a hinge
and an elastic band!
Im not giving up that easily.
How about if I replace my HD with a 128GB SSD to run the 64bit applications
Any SSD 2.5 Recommendations?
Then look at what I can achieve with my ExpressCard slot.
This is depednent on whether the Expresscard module is connected to a USB
slot on the board or a PCI controller. Check out the speed differences:
ExpressCard <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExpressCard> 1.2

4,800 Mbit/s*600 MB/sExpressCard <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExpressCard>
2.0 PCI Express <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express> mode*
5,000 Mbit/s*625 MB/sIf im running Expresscard 1.2 on a PCI slot that gives
me 250 MB/s
Thats enough to run 2 FW800 drives at the same time from Express slot.
Although I'm tempted to go for an esata dual port ExpressCard which will use
the maximum bandwith or the slot
One question, If your sourcing from one drive and outputting to another what
sort of speeds do you get from each? Im presuming the write speed of a drive
is 300MB/s or limited to 250MB/s if thats all the slot can manage. I just
want to add in the calculation of the speed reading the source dive that I
will have to account into the equation.
Im considering dual port:
FireWire <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FireWire> (IEEE 1394b)
1600[45]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_device_bit_rates#cite_note-firewireb-44>
1,573 Mbit/s196.6 MB/s
or
single port
eSATA <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESATA> (SATA 300)2,400 Mbit/s300 MB/s
2004
Baring in mind I want to run 2 Hard drives through the slot and my limit is
(if it is)
ExpressCard <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExpressCard> 1.2 PCI
Express<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express>
mode2,500 Mbit/s250 MB/s
That would only really accommodate 1 esata drive running at max speed
Any suggestions folks?
And dont say buy a new laptop..
Thanks
Simon

Help! Unwanted patterns appearing in the background of edited photos!

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this- I'm continuing to have issues when I open a photo to edit in Elements. I will apply a filter or a distortion or even sharpen the image and then there are suddenly gray and white patterns that appear in the background of my photo. They're not pixels- it looks as though the background of the photo is showing through and it saves as a JPEG that way as well (background showing through). I've included a screenshot of a photo I was editing where it occurred.
I've tried contacting support for this- the first time they claimed it was fixed (it wasn't) and the second time they hung up on me so I'm getting desperate to find someone with an answer here. Any help would be much appreciated- thanks!

Update your graphics driver and flush the disk cache. This is an artifact that relates to that - eitehr the buffer reappears when you set it back to the old resolution or an invalid cache is pulled in. It only disappears when you change the resolution because naturally there is no previously stored data...

Need help editing scanned images of old photo album pages PSE 9

Before I begin this project, I thought I'd get some advice from someone who has undertaken a similar project. I have three photo albums from the 50's and 60's. The albums were made by my mother who mounted the photos (mostly black and white but some color photos) on construction paper (of various colors) using the corner holders or glue. She hand cut the construction paper so each page is not a perfect rectangle ( about 11" tall, 8.5" wide). The pages were punched and put into a three-ring binder.
She added text to the edge of the photo and/or to the construction paper. Each page contains one to 6 photos and text. Each album has about 120 pages. I want to keep the notes on the construction paper so I scanned each page into a TIF files, 400 dpi and stored the images in a separate folder for each volume.
I use (poorly) PSE 9. I see it has a auto straighten/crop feature that can be used one photo at a time. I tried the divide scanned images function and that did not fully separate all images on the page and also created an image for stray objects on the page such as an unused corner holder. (I know those things have a better name but it escapes me now.)
I plan to create photo books for my siblings. I am now thinking of cropping the image of each page (rather than each photo on the page) into a uniform size, adjusting levels, contrast and sharpness, saving this image to a JPEG file, and using these edited JPEG images to create the photo book. Since each page was hand-cut, there will areas of white where one page was torn or cut smaller than another page. Some pages will have blanks where old photos have been lost leaving behind only the corner things. It won't be perfect but it will be an image of the album as it exists today.
My questions are:
The pages are about 11 by 8.5. Does anyone know a photo service that prints photo albums in a portrait layout in this size? I have been unable to find one; it looks like most online photo books are wider rather than taller.
Let's assume I use a company such as Shutterfly that offers a 12x12 format. I assume it would be better to edit the images in PSE9 rather than any online software. What should I do to keep the proportions in the current images true but make the image fit a 12x12 page, for example?
IS there any other editing software anyone can recommend that will speed this up, hopefully a software that would take multiple photos at one time, auto-straighten and auto crop to a set size? And also auto contrast/level/sharp. If I could use such auto features on these images and then go back and adjust the photos that did not play well with the auto features, that would save me time.
I appreciate anyone's input. I dread doing this but we have one set of photos and 5 siblings so it has to be done. Thanks!

Hi,
Mentioning your issues one by one:
1) PSE does not have any portrait Photobook available, so your thought was the best way to get the work done is by choosing the 12x12 - shutterfly one.
2) PSe does a good job of editing the images. You can set your images of approx. 11x8 size to fit to the 12x12 page. Just choose a one photo page Layout for the page and then right click on the image to " Fit photo in the frame".
3) If more edits are required for the image, you can easily go to Advanced mode and edit your photos, layouts, move the frames, images or add effects to the images.
4) Photo book creation sure takes time. because, you want it to be the best. I am sure PSE would help you best here.
Go ahead and create you photobook. Inc ase you get stuck somewhere, you can always post here to get help!
Cheers,
Swarnima

Making template background an editable region

Oh my goodness, I'm about to cry. I've literally and without hyperbole spent days trying to figure this out on my own. I have also contacted Adobe Tech help and was willing to pay for help ... all to no avail. I am SO hoping there is someone out there who is able to help me. My deadline to have this website finished is Monday, Sept. 03 and I am stuck. Now down to the question:
I have created a webpage which I have saved as template and which I want to use as my master from which all the other templates and pages on my site will be derived. I would like to be able to change the background in different sections of the site. The page I have created has an image, but other pages may just have a colour. Is it possible to make the background colour and image, as set in the page properties, into an editable region? And, if so, how is it done? If it is not possible, are there any suggestions for work arounds that will allow me at least some flexibility in this matter?
Any help on this will be gratefully accepted and enormously appreciated.
Thank you,
Malene

Thank you so much for the reply. I will be using the Master template I have created to make about another 6 templates. These templates I will use to create about another 200 pages. So, my thinking is that the best way is to make the relevant section editable and that is where I am at a loss. I am a novice designer and not at all versed in HTML, so I rely heavily on Dreamweaver's menus to perform various actions. I know how to make regions editable in general, but I can't find a way to use the "insert editable region" to make the actual background, as set in the "page properties" CSS, editable. I am guessing doing so requires some sort of HTML knowledge that I don't have.
In the code, this is the region I need to make editable (copied and pasted from my template's code):
body {
background-color: #e5dfd3;
background-image: url(../Images/Global/Toronto_Osgoode_Hall_1856.jpg)
; margin-left: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;

I recorded a panel presentation on my Ipod and would like to edit the recording on my itunes so I can export the recording and send it to my colleagues over the internet. I was able to import the recording to my itunes library but need help editing it.

Hello, thanks in advance for your help. I recorded a panel presentation on an ipod and would like to edit the audio recording to just one portion of the recording. I was able to import the audio into my itunes 11.1.3 music library but I have not been able to edit the length of the recording. I followed an online tutorial and was able to edit when the recording starts and stops on the recording but I haven't been able to edit out the parts of the recording that I dont want. Also when I try to export it to my Desktop or to Garageband (not sure if that helps or not) I am not able to export it. It is currently a .WAV file. I would like to edit the length of the recording and then export the file onto my desktop. I would like to email the presentations to my colleagues online so I could also use advice on how to make it a smaller file since it is current 945.6 MB.

iTunes isn't an editor. You need an app that's intended for editing audio files, like Adobe Audition (http://www.adobe.com/products/audition.html) or Audacity (free in the App Store).

Need help editing and exporting using Final Cut Express - why does video end up with judder?!!

I've imported material from my JVC HD Camera and have edited a 52 minute sequence on Final Cut Express. I've exported it as a Quicktime Movie and it's 43GB. How do I get this on to DVD?
I've tried using iDVD to export but as you can imagine, the quality is not great. There's a judder on it. I have no idea where to start with using applications like MPEG Streamclip to convert the clip so that when it does get on to DVD, it doesn't judder. Can anyone help? This is driving me insane!!

I've exported it as a Quicktime Movie and it's 43GB. How do I get this on to DVD?
First step - just use this export as the import into iDVD. iDVD will take care of the necessary encoding to fit it on a DVD disk. The file size is of no concern; the only concern is the length (in time) of the video ... iDVD can fit about 2 hours of video on single layer DVD media; about 4 hours on dual-layer DVD media.
Regarding the judder, this is not specifically an iDVD issue. Do you see the judder when you play the video in the FCE Canvas window?

Screen Saver and Size of Background - Help, please!

Hello there!
I have a brand new Dell computer from Best Buy. With my last computer (Gateway), I was able to set up an automatic screen saver of a slideshow of pictures if my computer was not used for a certain amount of minutes.
With this new computer, I have set up the same settings, but the screen saver NEVER comes on. I have clicked everything I need to, accepted, and saved the settings, but it never works. Any ideas?
I decided to try and fix it myself, so I went into the Control Panel, Appearance and Personalization, Change Screen Saver, and then went into Power Settings to see if maybe the display wasn't working for this reason. I cannot remember what I did, but now the background picture is HUGE.
To fix this, I have gone into screen resolution and display/power settings, but everything seems to be set to "recommended", so I cannot figure out what happened to make the images so large suddenly.
1) Can you help me get the screen saver slideshow to activate?
2) How do I get my background pictures back to normal size?
Thank you so much for your help!!! I really appreciate it.

Wow, so sorry for the hype delayed response. it could be that your laptop was timing out for powersave before the screensaver would kick in. The best thing to do is go into your screen saver, set it to 1 minute and then let it sit for a minute without touching it (with it plugged in). It should kick in. Again, most laptops cut the monitor off after just a few minutes to conserve the power of the battery. I'm glad that the other solution worked for you =)

Help Editting Contact Names

Just got the 6120 Classic - Asia Model. I have import all contacts from SIM card, but it messed up all contacts first/last names (it shows first and last names bundle into a lastname). It also show multiples entries for the same contact with more than one phone numbers.
Anyway, when I try to edit contact by going to Contact->Option->Edit, to update each contact's name, I use the Left arrow key to move the cursor to left, it does left shift a character BUT it doesn't delete that last character. Same when I key in a wrong character and want to delete it, how to do so? I'm able to left move back a character but not delete it. So, I have been playing with deleting a character during text input, but not able to do so. Can anyone here please help????
Thanks!

Solution - was because I was on an unofficial carrier. Apple just released a carrier bundle update for Telecom NZ and now works perfect, I can only assume they have for the majority of unofficial carriers by now. Just plug your iPhone into iTunes and it should offer an update.

My objective is to change the number of menu items, change their labels and link the to their correspondant internet page.
