Can iWeb publish with JPEGS rather than PNG?

Is there any way to make iWeb use only jpegs rather than PNG files when publishing? Also, I think a picture quality slider would be helpfull for compression and site size management... thanks

You can minimize the chances of iWeb converting your jpgs into PNGs if you pay attention to the following things...
1. Scale your jpgs to the resolution they are to be used...don't let iWeb do the scaling if possible (like dropping a photo in and then adjusting the size handles). Target your resolution and then drop the photo in and select "Use Original Size" in the Inspector Shape tab.
2. Do not apply effects to your jpgs....if you do, iWeb will automatically convert to PNG and the file size will be even bigger! These effects include drop shadows, rotation, frames, opacity changes, etc.
3. Be aware that in some templates, dropping a photo into iWeb automatically applies frames, drop shadows, and/or reflections. You can deselect these enhancements in the Inspector panel after dropping the photos in. If you don't, iWeb will convert to PNG.
4. Do not use the "Use image as background" option. Better to drag an exactly sized jpg photo into iWeb and push it to the very back layer than to use this option.
You are right, iWeb or at least iPhoto needs to have some sort of user control over jpg compression. I use another app for this purpose called "Downsize". On the plus side, it also lets me apply shadows and frames to photos and saves the finished image with effects and all as a jpg.

    Is there any way I can upgrade to version 6 rather than IOS7?

    No.  iTunes and over the air updates work by detecting your hardware, and then only offer the latest available version of iOS compatible with that hardware.  Older releases will simply not be available for hardware.

  • ThreadReaper object used with finalizer rather than finalizer on Timer?

    Timer class has threadReaper object used with finalizer rather than finalizer on Timer itself, can anyone explain the following snippet. what is the advantage of keeping the finalize in its references rathe rthan in the original object itself.
         * This object causes the timer's task execution thread to exit
         * gracefully when there are no live references to the Timer object and no
         * tasks in the timer queue.  It is used in preference to a finalizer on
         * Timer as such a finalizer would be susceptible to a subclass's
         * finalizer forgetting to call it.
        private Object threadReaper = new Object() {
            protected void finalize() throws Throwable {
                synchronized(queue) {
                    thread.newTasksMayBeScheduled = false;
                    queue.notify(); // In case queue is empty.

    I want to be able to arrange the icons myself on the MC.
    Unfortunately, I don't think this is possible. These are the only settings available for the Magic Canvas related to desktop icons:

    You can do just about anything with a JPEG image that you can with a raw image. The advantage of working with raw is that it is possible to work with more extremes in exposure. More highlights and shadows can be recovered in a raw image, but there is a lot that can be done with JPEG images as well. All of the library functions and keywording and all the other features of Lightroom can be used on JPEG images just as easily as they can be used on raw images.
    Having said all that, you might be more comfortable using Photoshop Elements. Both programs have trial versions that you can use for 30 days to decide which one or whether both will work for you. It would probably be to your advantage to try them out and decide for yourself.

  • I used to have iWeb and now my domain has a password even after I ended my account.  I can't publish with sandvox

    I have had iweb for years and since the publishing with mobilme is going away i have since switch to sandvox and hosting with godaddy.  I have set up everything and it said it published but when I go to the site it makes me put in my apple id.  How do I get that to go away?

    I agree, you need to adjust your DNS. I have an important question for you, though. Do you see your site if you visit the domain without the www subdomain? In other words, do you see the site if you go to "YourDomain.com" and only get the MobileMe login box if you visit "www.YourDomain.com"? If that's the case, you only need to make one change. If it doesn't work either way, you'll need to make two changes.
    You said that you host with Go Daddy, but you didn't say whether or not the domain was also registered at Go Daddy. I'm assuming it is and that it's registered in the same Go Daddy account that you used to purchase the hosting account...
    Here's a guide that explains how to access the DNS Manager in Go Daddy and make changes: http://x.co/kTW3
    That guide can look complicated because there's a lot of stuff that *can* be done in the DNS Manager. In your case, you probably just need to access it and choose the "Restore Detaults" option for your CNAMEs. To be sure, though, it's always best to contact Go Daddy Support so they can go over the exact details of your account with you and make sure you're not making any unwanted changes. They're available 24/7, so you can call whenever it's convenient.
    If the site's not coming up without the "www" subdomain, you should also change the nameserver setting. To do that, read this guide: http://x.co/kTXR
    You'll want to follow the steps for "Setting Nameservers for a Domain Name Registered with Us" and choose the "I have a hosting account with these domains". It'll take a little time after you make this change, but our system should automatically set the domain to point to the hosting account properly.
    I hope this helps. As I mentioned before, don't hesitate to contact Go Daddy Support for assistance. They're better equipped to instruct you since they can look at your account settings and walk you through making changes. Phone and email contact info is here: http://x.co/kTYi
    Good luck to you!

  • I synced with iMac itunes and got many more contacts than I want on the iPhone. How can I delete multiple contacts rather than having to do so one at a time?

    I synced my iPhone with itunes and iMac and got many more contacts than I wanted on my iPhone. How can I delete quite a few of them at one time as opposed to deleting one at a time?

    iTunes does not handle the import of photos/videos from the iPhone's Camera Roll.
    If this is not the computer you sync your iPhone with, you should have been provided a warning message that your iPhone is associated with an iTunes library on another computer and when trying to transfer any iTunes content from a different computer, a warning message is provided indicating that all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first.
    When connecting an iPhone to iTunes on another computer, none of the options under the various tabs for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes are selected automatically. This means you had to select Sync Contacts under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on your wife's computer.
    Assuming you are syncing contacts with a supported address book app on your computer, connect your iPhone to Tunes on your computer and without syncing, under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences below the Advanced section, select Contacts for replace info on this iPhone followed by a sync.
    For importing photos/videos from the Camera Roll which can be done with a computer that is not used for syncing the iPhone since syncing with iTunes is not involved.

  • HP Scan 1 bit scan to pdf embeds images as jpeg rather than tiff

    Using HP Scan (latest version to date of 32.30.198.49673) and scanning in 'Black and White' to PDF (not 'Searchable PDF'), the image is embedded into the PDF as a jpeg (!!!), which means that the file is much larger than it needs to be, as it could go in as a lossless 1 bit tiff file. The image in the PDF looks like a 1 bit image, but 1 bit jpegs do not exist of course.
    So, on a medium high image quality setting I get a file size (for a particular document) of 546KB, whereas the same scan to 1 bit tiff (on the same device with using HP scan) is 36kB (15 times smaller)
    To be sure that it was embedding the scanned image as a jpeg instead of a tiff I set the file quality to low and you could see the jpeg compression artifacts which were a mixture of greys - thereby proving that it was a greyscale jpeg (of course, 1 bit jpegs don't exist), even though, visually, it looks just like a 1 bit scan in all other ways.
    How can I get HP Scan, when I choose 'Black and White' to 'PDF', to embed the image as a 1 bit Tiff file, rather than a greyscale jpeg? I don't really want to store a file that is 15 times bigger in file size than it needs to be.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Hello @markp4000, 
    Welcome to the HP forums.
    I understand that you would like the images saved as a .tiff instead of a .jpeg, when you scan to PDF.
    Unfortunately there is no option to change how HP's software creates the PDFs.
    You will most likely need 3rd party software to optimize your scanning results.

  • Can I use album artist rather than Artist on my iPod160?

    The Artist selection on the iPod has its problems as "Album Artist" is not always the same as "Artist". I know I can correct the Cover Flow problems with Artist View by use of the Sort Artist option but I do have a few questions.
    I would rather display the Album Artist rather than Artist. Is this possible? I can do it in ITunes but cannot seem to do it on the iPod itself.
    Also, is it possible to do mass changes on Sort Artist rather than hit "next", paste the change, etc. Everything I try to mass change, Sort Artist is not an option.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, the 'album artist' field is ignored on the iPod (I hope it one day will be 'solved'). If you mark albums with multiple artists as 'compilation', the album artist in iPod coverflow is automatically set to 'various artists'. And I haven't found a way to mass-edit the sort fields either

  • Can an EDQ job preserve rather than overwrite its previous outputs

    We have a job running on a scheduled basis that outputs data quality issues to a spreadsheet.
    We would like to keep a history of specific error details (e.g. which records had which data quality issues) over time (i.e. more details than the simple measures that can be published to the Dashboard for seeing trends over time).
    I believe we could do this kind of thing using an export to an external database table (or even a file in the EDQ server's landing area) using the 'Append to current data' option however is that a recommended way to go or is there any alternative e.g. is it possible for the job to write to
    (a) a spreadsheet/file with a different name each time it runs (e.g. suffixed with the run timestamp) or
    (b) an EDQ staged data area without deleting what was previously in the table (we could include a run timestamp column to distinguish the runs).
    Thanks, Nik

    Thanks for the update Mike - and for reminding me of that option (I hadn't been using run labels to now due to the fact that these are not compatible with Result Book exports to spreadsheets).
    I guess in that latter case we would have to use the command line utility runopsjob in conjunction with a scheduled script (run at the operating system level) that changes the -runlabel argument passed to it.
    Thanks, Nik

  • Opening two windows with "_blank" rather than one...

    While setting up external links, I am finding that every time
    I have the link open in a new (_blank) window, two windows will
    open up with the same link rather than one. I guess two is better
    than none, but does anyone know why this is happening? And also how
    to fix the problem? I tried using _parent and it does the same
    thing. I'm new at flash but understand the principles, though is
    there something I'm missing?

    I know of no reason why that would happen other than having
    the getURL, LoadVars or whatever being called twice - e.g once with
    an onPress and then again with onRelease or something like that.
    If you want someone to look at your relevant code, feel free
    to post it here using the attach Code button (if you don't do it
    this way then the formatting of your code can get messed up).

  • How do I duplicate hard links when copying with Finder rather than making two copies of the file?

    I have 1.6 TB of Video on one external drive. All of this was imported using iMovie and lives mostly in iMovie events. I then decided I wanted to use Final Cut Pro X for some additional flexibility.
    I opened FCPx and imported the iMovie events and movies. As I expected, FCPx made hard links to the files in the iMovie events rather than wholesale copying the events into the original content area. I have found that it is much easier to keep all movie content on one disk rather than having is spread all over creation, so I am trying to make a copy on another larger drive.
    I am trying to use Finder to copy the files rather than some other more obtrusive option using the actual applications. The problem is, when I use the finder Copy function, all files that had hard links in the file system are now phyiscally copied twice and are actually duplicated on the new disk. This doubles the size of the the content on the new disk and completely ruins the reason for moving the files in the first place.
    Now that I have finally figured out what is going on, I guess I can figure out the proper Unix style commands in the Terminal to make happen what I expect, but I would much rather have Finder duplicate a link if it finds a link. I really want to be able to use iMovie or FCPx on the Event content and only have one copy of the content unless I want to make a modification in one or the other.

    Mark,
    I have had a similar problem lately.  I use rsync to perform nightly backups from one internal drive to another.  I noticed (after I started using Final Cut Pro X) that my backup drive had 300G more disk space allocated.  It was only after a long and painful debugging process that I figured out that FCPX had created hard links to my iMovie Events.  I don't have a solution to this problem yet but I wanted to at least mention that I have run into the same challenge.
    Regards,
    Greg

  • Attach to Email - Can we create HTML format rather than plain text

    We need to send invoices & receipts to customers. Our accounting app produces a PDF. We then use the toolbar button (or File|Attach to email).
