Basic help needed very much

Hi,
       I have an Epson 3800 printer and Adobe Elements 7 (Epson advised me that I should buy some version of Photoshop to take full advantage of the printers capabilities).....Problem is need basic info on how to set all the buttons to make a decent print. There are many,many choices on various drop down tabs all through the process of making a print. Also, It seems that all my pictures are 72 ppi ...is this a default setting ? Or, did I do something wrong when I downloaded them from my camera ?  PLEASE help !   If at all possible someone could guide me through the process step by step I would be very, very grateful.  I need guidance from the download, through the myriad of buttons (ie: color management, size selections (why do I have to tell both Elements and the printer the size of my paper?!!$#@) what's up with 72ppi on all my pics, if i change to 300 ppi wont pics get worse ? )
I called Epson and asked them to walk me through a print but they wouldnt because  they said  I'm going through Elements first and that is not their responsibility!  BUT THEY ADVISED ME TO GET ELEMENTS IN THE FIRST PLACE !!!
Please help...I am an artist (painter) ...my website is www.theeastcoastartist.com I will send a free 8 X 10 signed print of a painting to anyone that can help me get a decent print or just tell me which settings to make each step of the way.
Thanks,
Frank

Frank, here's a couple links to tutorials that may help. They use Photoshop but the print settings in Elements are similar enough.

As far as the resolution, stated in pixels per inch (ppi), the images from your camera have a fixed number of pixels, so resolution is determined by the size of the print...the larger the print, the larger the pixels, the lower the resolution. 300 ppi is considered optimum for printing...higher won't hurt, lower than 250 ppi may start to be noticable.

    I am trying to download a variety of files and when it is finished, the Mac freezes up and the task bar continue to blink on and off.
    I have to go into Firefox and actually quit the application to continue. Any help is very much appreciated.

    are you backing up files, or doing a Time machine backup, either way, the Time machine will STOP when finished and show "last backup at XXXXXX"  meaning its done...... OR if when transferring files, it will show a progress bar on your desktop and vanish when files are copied.
    Open up the Hitachi drive (your G drive is made by Hitachi, and the best made by the way).....and see if the files are there.
    a MORE VISUAL way is to open the hard drive file, and drag and drop files INTO the Gdrive and you can see them visually be copied there as you do it.
    To see your HD on your desktop GOTO  FINDER......PREFERENCES....then GENERAL TAB.........check the box marked HARD DRIVES.........then your Gdrive will appear on your desktop........open it from there,  and DRAG and drop files from anywhere INTO the Gdrive....... easy visual way to see the files being copied into the Gdrive.

  • Help needed (very basic I think!)

    Hello. I wonder if anyone can help me. I have tried downloading a couple of podcasts from Itunes for the first time. I can download them onto my Itunes, but then I can't move them from there to my own Ipod. No idea what I'm doing wrong but I do hope it's a basic thing. Thanks to anyone for their time and help.

    Hello. Thank you for your help. I did all that you said and it downloaded one podcast from my library to my own ipod, but then I got carried away and tried to download another podcast from itunes & now I can't get that one onto my ipod! I made sure "Manually manage music and videos" was not checked - which did something weird to my ipod....but I still can't download other podcasts....But thank you very much for the help.

  • Web Form Editor - basic help needed!

    I must be the world's dumbest designer. I am trying to create a contact form in Business Catalyst to be placed in Muse. Now, I use Muse because I know very little about coding, so that is probably why I am struggling so bad creating this form. Typically, I use the form building widget in Muse to create my forms, but my client would like to include a dropdown list and an "add file" function to the form. I have watched a couple videos on youtube on how to set up a form, but I am getting hung up on the formatting. The form technically has everything I need, but it is horribly ugly! I have tried using the "Customize Web Form" option within BC (as well as the Style Builder), but nothing I do makes any difference.
    See for yourself:
    THis is what the form looks like in Muse. I manually added the blue box in Muse. There are so many things wrong I don't know where to start! The form fields are too small, I can't change the font or color and I want to get rid of the Title. I have tried playing with the code, but nothing works. Is there a tutorial somewhere teaching us how to edit a form using the built in web form editor?
    Thank you so much for your help!

    You need to assign a class to each input element and then target those classes with CSS.
    Example:
    <input type="text" name="FirstName" id="FirstName" class="cat_textbox" maxlength="255">
    CSS:
    .cat_textbox {
    width: 300px;
    height: 25px;
    border-radius: 3px;
    box-shadow: inset 1px 1px 2px 0 #DADADA;
    -webkit-box-shadow: inset 1px 1px 2px 0 #DADADA;
    border-color: #B6B6B6;
    border-style: solid;
    border-width: 1px;
    I can help you out more in a few hours. I highly recommend learning as much CSS & HTML as you can.

  • Basic Help Needed - Exporting

    Hi everyone!
    I am currently drawing a 1600X900 interface for a touchscreen system. I am using illustrator to make the buttons, but I have an issue. The touchscreen program will only upload buttons as an image (anything besides .png simply looks awful), so I need to export JUST certain images of certain buttons in illustrator. My question...
    Is there a way to export a certain selection/object/layer in illustrator? I am currently running CS4. I know I can copy and paste each object onto a new print and export - but when the .png is uploaded it has a border (even if its translucent). Again, there are buttons so I need the full image and nothing else.
    Also, for a more complicated question;
    When I began the illustrator document, I chose 1600x900 pixels in hope that the buttons would appear smooth on the touchscreen program. Should I perhaps lower the pixels since the actual buttons may only take up a tiny fraction of the whole 1600x900 screen? I've never really imported my work into 3rd party programs - this is new to me.
    Thanks so much!

    Loading a plug-in, then exporting to layers...if there's a more simple solution, I'd certainly love to hear it. 
    Don't fear the plug-ins, they're here to help.
    Once you load the plug-in, there will be a new menu item for you in Illustrator.  At that point, simply clicking the "Export Layers to .png" option exports all visible layers to the .pngs you want, perfectly sized 1:1 with your art, perfectly cropped, named to the name of your layers and ready to go.

  • RV120W VPN Setup - basic help needed

    Hi all,
    I've recently bought a RV 120W Wireless-N VPN Firewall hoping it would ease me in creating VPN and remote connectivity. But I seems to be struggling with this.
    Here is my situation.
    When I bought my Cisco router I didn't know it had an ethernet port for WAN. I thought it would have a RJ11 compliant port. So now I am having to put the router behind my modem.
    I gave my modem's LAN 192.168.2.1 and to RV120W I gave 192.168.2.2.
    All PC's are not connected to internet via RV120W. For RV120W, the local IP network is 192.168.1.0. I've set 192.168.1.1 as the management IP of the Cisco RV120W. All the PC's can get internet from the above layout arrangement.
    With frustration, I've portforwared all my ports on the modem (except 1 port) to RV120W i.e to IP 192.168.2.2.
    If I enable PPTP on RV120W I can ping its port (1723 i remember) from outside. If I connect to port 80 from outside my network, I can get the managemnt interface of the RV120W.
    With the help of the RV120W's userguide I managed to create VPN policy stuff via the 'basic VPN Setup' menu. The guides says to use a wizard but there is no wizard for VPN setup.
    With that I have even created users (of every type) but I just can't make the connection.
    When I use the QuickVPN to connect... its goes from "Connecting", "Activating Policy" again "Connecting" and then a big error saying a couple of things that might have caused the error.
    I want to start from the beginning.
    Can somebody please help me.
    First... what I am I supposed to put in the fields of the following screenshot. Especially the fields "Remote WAN's IP Address", "Local WAN's IP Address" and "Local LAN IP Address".

    Once I knew about the bridge mode thing from this discussion, I started reading the manual of the modem in regard to the brigde mode setup.
    According to the manual, the 'Data' bulb on the modem would be off if the modem is in bridge mode. and I've successfully put the modem on bridge mode I guess. It was pretty easy. I just deleted all the WAN setup rules/configs and began with the initial setup wizard which basically had the option to set the modem to bridge mode. After so, the 'Data' bulb got off meaning the modem is now in bridge mode. I am happy about that
    But... still not done.
    I put one ethernet cable into of the LAN ports of the modem and put the other end in RV120W WAN port. Logged into to RV120W, configured new PPPoE profile (I have the user and pass details) and attached it to the WAN internet setup config.
    I went back to the dashboard of RV120W to see if WAN was up. It didn't. I gave some time. It didn't work. It says 'connecting' but never connects.
    What am I doing wrong? Am I putting the cable between the modem and router the right way?
    ...and also, when the modem is in bridge mode will it forward all packets from lan to wan and vice versa or is it like forwarding packets to all ports once recieved.
    (I am learning so much with this RV120W )

  • Switching to Libsyn - basic help needed re: previous episodes

    Hello all,
    Bit of a novice with RSS etc, just need a bit of help.
    After hosting my podcast on my own personal wordpress webspace, where each episode has a 20mb limit, I have signed up to Libsyn to have more space to make episodes longer.
    However, I have thirteen previous episodes and am a bit worried that they will be deleted or duplicated when I re-direct my RSS to the new feed.
    If I keep them hosted where they are (on wordpress), will they remain untouched and available even after I have switched to libsyn? I don't have to upload all thirteen episodes to libsyn do I, as surely that will mean they re-download?
    I want to cause minimum fuss to people, and essentially for the next podcast to download on iTunes from the new RSS feed, while all previous ones remain as normal.
    Any way to do this?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    What happens to the display in the Store depends entirely on what is in the current feed. If when you have redirected to the Libsyn feed these episodes are not included in it then they will disappear from the Store. People who have already subscribed will of course retain them, but new subscribers won't see them either.
    However if you include them in the Libsyn feed then they will appear in the Store and to new subscribers. I don't know whether Libsyn will let you include them at their original URLs for the media files: from what you say I gather it hosts the episode media files, so it's possible it may not allow you to reference files on another server. The will of course appear in the feed whether they are hosted on Libsyn or elsewhere.
    However I thinks it's probable that existing subscribers will see them as new episodes, particularly if they now have Libsyn addresses, and will therefore find themselves downloading them again - I don't think there's anything much you can do about that.

  • CSS11506 - Some basic help needed

    Alright, I have a CSS11506 in the lab and I am trying to configure it into a reverse proxy config. So I would like to have all inbound http requests hit the CSS and then have it redirect to our web server on correct DMZ. Having never setup a CSS before I need some help.
    - Is my service type proxy-cache, type redirect or type transparent cache ?
    I know this should be fairly easy to do with the 11506. Can you also provide some docs explaining the config walkthru.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Cheers
    Dave

    Thanks, that explains a few things.
    So assuming the following, DMZ web server ip is 192.168.20.50 and VIP for CSS is 192.168.20.100, basically I would want to redirect all inbound http requests from 192.168.20.100 to the 192.168.20.50 using the following CSS config ?
    service rprox1
    ip address 192.168.20.50
    protocol tcp
    port 8080
    active
    owner clee
    content redirect_rule
    add service rprox1
    vip address 192.168.20.100
    protocol tcp
    port 8080
    url "/*"
    Like I said, never configured one yet so this is my first attemtp.
    Thanks again for the help
    Cheers

  • Help needed very urgent

    I have problem in downloading a file through a servlet. Let me put my points clearly.
    When a client requests my servlet using setcontenttype, setheader methods I prompt for the 'save' option.
    The client can choose the file and save in his local directory.
    The problem now is, if he cancels in between or at the initial stage itself an exception saying 'connection reset by peer' should be thrown at the server side.
    When I execute the servlet in javawebserver2.0/weblogic 5.0, the exception is thrown.
    Whereas when I use the same servlet in weblogic6.0sp1win no exception is thrown.
    I want the exception to be thrown even in weblogic6.0sp1win.
    How to overcome this problem. Please help me out at the earliest.
    Please see the code below.
    I am eagerly awaiting for your feedback. I have posted this query several times in java and jguru forum but did not get any reply till now.
    Since the problem is very serious please help me out as soon as possible. thanks

  • Basic Help needed with Hyperion 9.3 Scheduling jobs

    Hi!
    Is there anyone who would be willing to help a novice understand the Scheduling features in Hyperion 9.3? We are converting from Brio 6.6 where we used the "Broadcast Server". We don't yet have many jobs - so I'm not migrating them. But, the documentation with Hyperion is not helping me really understand how to set a job to actually do anything. I don't yet know how to add cycles and direct specific output to specific places. The jobs "run" and I've created events ...
    If you would have some time to talk me through the process, I would be very grateful.
    Jeanne Loehnis

    I agree about the documentation. It's not always easy to understand how to do something if your situation doesn't exactly match the examples. I had to use a lot of trial and error to finally get some jobs running.
    The first misunderstanding I had was that if I want to schedule a document, I have to import my .bqy file as a job from the filesystem. You can't take an Interactive Reporting document from Workspace and use it as the basis of a job. So if you're using the web-based client and working on documents stored in Workspace you have to export the document to your filesystem and then import it as a job. You're probably beyond that point.
    The second misunderstanding (and I wonder if this is your problem) is that you must set the job to allow users to create their own cycles for it. If you don't you're stuck with the default cycle set, and you cannot change it. This is where the documentation falls short -- it mentions the attribute, but doesn't go far enough to tell you what happens if you don't check it off -- that even you, as the owner-and-most-likely-also-administrator won't even be able to maninpulate the cycles. What's more, if you don't set this attribute on import, you can't set it later. There's no way to reach the dialog with Properties. I can't vouch for the Batch Scheduler, we don't license that (if it even applies). Maybe it's a bug, maybe I'm missing something, but this is the only way I can get the full functionality to work.
    You will find this attribute on Step 3 of the import dialog "Interactive Reporting Job Properties". Check the box labeled "Users running this job can define their own cycles and actions". Once you finish and schedule the job, you can go to Manage Job Schedules and modify the schedule properties. Go to the Select Job Parameters tab, and create or use an existing parameter set (using the Go button).
    This takes you to the Job Parameter dialog box, and that is where you set up your cycles and actions. You can set them up, save them as your own personal sets, or as public sets so your team can use them for other jobs. You should be able to make some headway here, the documentation becomes more useful again at this point.
    Hope this helps

  • ITunes Basic Help Needed

    Although I've had my iMac for a while I haven't used iTunes much.
    Now I have a need for it and I can't get it to do what I want in several different areas.
    I have a list of Audio files which I have created playlists for and then uploaded to my iPod through iTunes.
    When you have a audio file in finder and then transfer it to iTunes, it changes its name and qualities etc...
    So I went through the painful task of re-naming all my audio files in several of my playlists after they had been transferred to iTunes.
    So now, I have all the audio files set up the way I want in iTunes under my iPod playlists.
    The question is, how do I export this list, exactly with all its qualities and names etc.. to the Mac so that I can import them again for when I connect my other device (iPhone)?
    When I select a playlist (under my iPod name) and then choose File >> Library, the Export Playlist feature is dimmed.
    What can I do?
    Thanks,
    JH

    Do you sync the iPhone and the iPod to the same iTunes library? If so, can't you just sync the same playlist to your iPhone (sorry I don't have an iPhone, so I could be misunderstanding something about how iPhones work compared to plain iPods)?

  • SSH basics - help needed

    I'm new to networking, so bear with me. Here is what I am trying to do:
    I would like to get to websites that are blocked by a corporate firewall (websense). (I take full responsibility for what I am doing and am not putting myself at risk - don't worry).
    It seems like I could use SSH to connect to my home internet connection thus bypassing the firewall.
    Is that true? If so, what do I need to do?
    Here's my equipment - 2 Macbook Pros, one fuctioning as a desktop at home, one portable. Airport Extreme N router (not gigabit). Comcast home cable internet.
    I just downloaded a program salled SSHTunnel that sounds like it should help, but I don't know where to start.

    The easy route.
    Use TeamViewer <http://teamviewer.com>. Leave TeamViewer running on your home Mac. It will display a "Wait for session ID". Copy that session ID number, and take it with you to work.
    On your work system, run another copy of TeamViewer (there are both PC and Mac versions).
    Configure the work TeamViewer with your corporate Proxy settings
    TeamViewer -> Preferences -> General -> Proxy Settings...
    Now on your work TeamViewer enter the Wait for session ID you got from your home system, and enter that in your work system's Create session ID field. Then click Connect to Partner button.
    This is the easiest way I know about.
    The HARD WAY: You can do this via ssh, but there are a lot more detailed steps.
    1st question. Does your company allow "Out-Bound" ssh connections? If it does, that helps a lot. If they DO NOT, then you would need to mess with an OpenSource program called "Corkscrew" that will get ssh through a proxy server.
    Once you get through the firewall, then you will need to get a dynamic DNS name for your home system. No-IP.com and DynDNS.org offer free dynamic DNS names. You use this so you do not need to worry about your ISP changing your home IP address.
    Now you need to configure your home router so it Forwards Port 22 from the internet side to your destination Mac.
    On your destination Mac, you need to enable System Preferences -> Sharing -> Remote Login, and while you are at it, you should enable screen sharing preference.
    Now on your work system, you ssh to your home system. The form of the command depends on whether you need to use corkscrew or not.
    Without corkscrew:
    ssh -L 5901:localhost:5900 [email protected]
    With corkescrew:
    ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900
    -o 'ProxyCommand /path/to/corkscrew proxy.server.address 8080 %h %p'

    Now you have an ssh tunnel which you can run screen sharing across. Using a VNC client. On a Mac you can use:
    Finder -> Go -> Connect to server
    vnc://localhost:5900
    If using a 3rd party VNC client, you still specify localhost and port 5900 as these what the ssh tunnel established as the path to the remote Mac's VNC server.
    Now you should be able to use your home Mac and its browser to surf anywhere you like.
    If you wish to increase your complication, you could use ssh to create a SOCKS proxy. You would add the following to your ssh command:
    -D 12345
    Then you configure your bowser to use the SOCKS proxy server via port 12345
