Can Preview in Lion also combine Tiff and/or Jpg files?

I know in Preview you can combine PDFs which I learned in Snow Leopard. In Lion, can you also combine Tiff and/or Jpg files? Or does anyone know of a program compatible with Lion that will combine Tiff files?

I know you can do that, however, before Lion there was a program called Tiff Combiner where you could combine Tiff files. It is not compatible with Lion. The reason I want to keep the documents in Tiff is because I enlarge these files to transcribe very old records and Tiff keeps the image clear now matter how much I enlarge it. For example I have old deeds, wills etc. that I used to combine the pages so I would have them in one document. I guess I will have to keep searching for a new program to do that in Lion.

I am on an iMac6,1 and on OS 10.5.8 and I want to upgrade the OS. Can I load Lion on my machine, and how do I go about doing it.. I have everything backed up.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

You can do it. This article from Macworld will be helpful to you:

Just make sure you have your data backed up properly!

How can I stop Lion tidying my desktop and putting all my icons in alphabetical order. I like my files to stay where I put them!

How can I stop Lion tidying my desktop and putting all my icons in alphabetical order. I like my files to stay where I put them! Every morning I boot up and all my desktop items have been moved. How can I stop this?
By the way - Lion is the worst 'upgrade' ever.

Hello again:
I've been to 'view' - and all I can see are the same options as before. Nothing which says the equivalent of 'stop Lion tidying my desktop alphabetically every time I boot up' - alas.
Hmmm. Try something:
Trash a preference file (com.apple.finder.plist) and restart. Then go to the view option while in Finder. There should be a "show view options." Select that and sort by "none."
FWIW, I have had no discernable change in speed under OS X 10.7, but that is just my system. I only use Adobe's free stuff. Have you checked with Adobe to see if there are updates available? I rarely use text edit so I have no benchmark. I don't like the missing save as either

Can I download lion to one computer and then install it on several computers I own?

Can I download lion to one computer and then install it on several computers I own?

You can install it on as many computers that you personally own. But if you have several then you may want to avoid having to download it multiple times:
Make Your Own Lion Installer
1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility.
Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that you can use without having to re-download Lion.

Can I use RoboHelp to support localization and generate help files in multiple languages?

Hi,
Can I use RoboHelp to support localization and generate help
files in multiple languages?
Can I define a layout or template for RoboHelp to insert
localized strings into the template and generate a localized help
file?
Thanks!

Hi newbie_r and welcome to the RH community.
You don't say what version of RH you have but the latest
version (RH7) has Unicode Support that allows you to produce help
files in most languages. The exceptions are mainly the right to
left languages (e.g. arabic, hebrew).
As far as the template is concerned, you can assign any text,
image to a template and it will be applied to any topics you assign
the template to.
If you haven't already, I'd download the trial version and
experiment a bit. Set up a template with what you want and then
create a couple of simple help files containing just a few topics
each. That will reassure you of RH7s capabilities in this
area.

Hi Keith,
PDF Pack is a conversion tool which would convert PDF to different formats and vice versa. It cannot be used for reading PDFs.
If you want to open and read PDF file you can use Adobe Reader.

I take a .NEF file and a .JPG file with every click. When I transfer the files using a flash drive to another computer I never get all of the files to transfer. I get some of the .NEF and some of the .JPGs but not all

I take a .NEF file and a .JPG file with every click. When I transfer the files using a flash drive to another computer I never get all of the files to transfer. I get some of the .NEF and some of the .JPGs but not all. How come?

If you're exporting a project then you'll only get the images in that project. Also if any of the masters are referenced then you won't get those masters unless you check Consolidate masters into exported library
It might be best if you started from the beginning and explained what it is your are trying to do and how you're going about doing it. Also a description of you're hardware/software setup would be helpful.

HT201250 Can I back up with time machine AND store additional files on the same external drive?

I just bought an external drive to move and archive some files off my iMac to free up some space. I'm being asked if I want to use the drive to back up files with Time Machine. Can I use this drive to do both? (Back up with TM AND store other files?
Your input is appreciated.

Technically you can but it is not a very good idea at all. The reason it is a flawed idea is if the HD fails (not really if but when) you will have defeated the whole idea of backup. A failure means you will lose the data files you stored on it and it's backup! A good backup plan has at least 2 forms of backup because backups can fail too. I would strongly recommend getting at least one additional external HD and use it for storing the data files you wanted off the internal HD and use the second for a Time Machine backup drive.
Personally I have 3 external HD's attached to my computer. Disk 1 is my Time Machine backup, Disk 2 is a Bootable Clone of my internal HD and Disk 3 stores my music, photography and movie libraries.
Please read these articles, they will discuss different backup strategies and I think you will see that each suggest redundant backups.

How can I store and access 'jpg' files on an iPad?

How can I access stored jpg files on an iPad? At the moment, I can save them but they are distorted when retrieved.

You can use 3rd party apps like Photo Manager Pro.

Iphoto doesn't recognize black and white jpg files

I scanned in an old black and white photo and it is a jpg file. When I try to drag it into iphoto it doesn't recognize the file. I tried changing the file by going to soft proof with profile, checking RGB, saving it and re-importing it but no luck. When I reopen the file, I noticed that my settings never saved in preview. How do I permanently change this files settings?

a common problem is that you don't have permission to upload those files, but it is an easy fix
1) Finder
2) Users(it should have the account name on it)
3) pictures
4) right click on iphoto library then click info
5 on the bottom of the new window there should be a sharing and permissions tab
6) make sure you have permission to read & write
The only other problem I can think is that you are having problems with hard drive space. if so you might want to clean up your hard drive to free up some space. please let me know if that worked for you.

Automated Locate and Move .JPG Files HELP!

I am trying to locate and move all .JPG files on my MacBook running OS X 10.6. I need a Script that will locate all .JPG files no matter where they are on the hard drive and move them [not copy] to a specified folder titled "JPG PHOTOS" that is on my desktop. I am then going to move that folder with all of the images to an external hard drive.
I am very new to scripting.

You do not say how many files or duplicates are involved but here is a simple bash script which you can paste into Terminal and then hit return.
find "/Users/neville" -name "*.JPG" -exec mv -n {} "/Users/neville/All JPG Photos" \;
Notes:
Make a full backup before you do this - mv can be dangerous
A simple mistake - such as not creating the destination folder can destroy files
This is not a copy script it moves files - so original path information will be lost
Change source and destination as required
May have to do it again for jpg
The -n ensures nothing is overwritten
Do it repeatedly with slightly different destinations to get duplicates
The script could be modified to auto-renumber duplicates - GNU bash has a 'backup' option for this
If there are a large number of JPG files a batch modification may be required

I keep getting an error on my MAC when i try to open any and all JPG FILES. How do I correct Adobe Reader could not open 'images rest 12-4.jpg' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent

Adobe Reader could not open 'images rest 12-4.jpg' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
that is the message how do i correct this problem

It sounds like your file associations are messed up and Reader is trying to open your .jpg files. Is this correct?
If so, you just need to change the associations to choose what application opens them. Here's how: Change File Associations in Mac OS X

UIImage and original jpg file data

Hi,
i've encountered a strange behaviour in my iphone app that i didn't expect when using UIImage.
I would really need your expert help.
Assuming i have a jpg file (lets say.. somewhere in my app sandbox).
I load the image to UIImage using - UIImageInitWithContentsOfFile.
After that i use the UIImageJpegRepresentation and NSData object to write the image back as a file.
when i compare the original jpg file to the new one i just saved i see that the images are NOT the same !
Well, they look the same, but when i take a close look at both images i see a drastic change in the image's data (such as color space differences).
So, my question is - every time i use the UIImage object the original jpeg file data will be replaced when i write back to disk the same image ?
Isn't there a way to pass through the UIImage object but obtaining the EXACT same jpeg as a result ?
will my jpeg file data will change everytime i use UIImage ?
my app is really depended on jpg data consistency and i would like to know if that's possible..
please... need help.
thanks.

Hi,
thanks.
i still don't understand - is it possible to hold the jpeg data as raw data of an image which was picked using the ImagePickerController (i.e an image from the photo library). as i understand, since the picker controller gives me back an UIImage, the original jpeg data of the image file (the image from the photo library) is not available anymore because the UIIMage representation of the image is a bitmap (which means the photo library image was decompressed to be held by the UIImage).
what i really need is to hold the original jpeg raw data of the jpeg file of the image that was picked from the photo libray. it seemed to me that after i get the UIImage from the controller and save it to my sandbox as a jpeg, the original image from the photo library and the new saved image are not the same in terms of size and color space.
