Does Mac OS X v10.8.5's Preview have a compression option for JP(E)G images?

Hello.
Does Mac OS X v10.8.5's Preview have a compression option for JP(E)G images? I did not see an option for it.
Thank you in advance.

Always make and work with a copy of your original image.
.jpg is a 'lossy' compression, so once saved to a smaller file size, the detail cannot be regained by attempting to re-save the smaller image back to a larger file size.
In OS X 10.8.5, using Finder, I used File Export (but you can also use Save As, revealed with Command+Duplicate in the Finder menu)
The original digital image was 6.7MB, created with a digital camera at 4000 pixels wide x 3000 pixels height.
Using the slider as shown above to change the Quality setting in increments of 2 'bars' here are the file size results.
Example image saved at '2' quality (smallest file size): {click on the images to enlarge on your screen}
A very 'busy' scene, saved at the smallest file size, might be OK for casual web use, such as social media posts.
Viewed at magnification, the artifacts, loss of detail, and digital 'noise' become apparent.

    Connect to your syncing computer and start iTunes. From the summary screen, check for updates. If you have a 2nd generation iPod, it can not be upgraded beyond 4.2.1.

  • Does Keynote 6.5 have a ruler option for Pixels?

    I started using Keynote for wireframes last year. Liked it way better than Ormigraffle  I upgraded a few weeks ago and there doesn't seem to be a way to change the rulers and measurements to pixels anymore. Am I missing something? I can't make wireframes without pixels.

    I use Keynote to create wallpapers that align to the onscreen iOS elements and using points will get you what you want. However, unless you are at actual size (zoom = 100%) you can't click and drag and move items so that the end up aligned to pixels. And, unfortunately, the UI won't show you that for the two objects that state their x coordinate as 100 in the inspector, one is 100.023 and the other is 100.498. They will visually be in different locations on the screen, but both will show 100 in the UI.
    That's one way that it doesn't work like the old Keynote, but once you're aware of that, just take it into account and you should be able to work around it.

  • Does MS Exchange 2013 have extended encryption options for Protected Health Information (PHI) ?

    Our agency currently uses MS Exchange Server 2007 on-site and we recently migrated over to Office 365 Pro Plus. Our current encryption is TLS for internal e-mails, and for external, we use Sophos with 'encrypt' in '[]" . With the intent to migrate our
    exchange server to be at version 2013 on-site, we were hoping to have the following: 
    internal and external email containing Protected Health Information (PHI) be encrypted to a FIPS 140-2 standard, minimum 128 bit, possibly 256 bit. Also, other counties and government agencies have solutions that will automatically encrypt emails with any
    string of over 5 digits, formatted like an SSN (xxx-xx-xxxx), or with trigger words “ePHI”, “PHI”, “Secure”, or “confidential”.
    Is this possible with 2013 or are we in the realm of exploring 3rd party solutions to obtain this level of security/encryption ?

    Hi domerdel,
    Thank you for your question.
    To help protect sensitive information, organizations create messaging policies that provide guidelines about how to handle this information. In Microsoft Exchange Server 2013, we could use
    transport protection rules
    to implement these messaging policies by inspecting message content, encrypting sensitive email content, and using rights management to control access to the content.
    We could refer to the following link:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd298166(v=exchg.150).aspx
    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know. 
    Best Regard,

  • Is Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard 32 or 64bit?

    I'm coming from a PC background. Is the Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard a 32bit or 64bit OS? Does Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard have a memory limitation? For example, the 32bit Windows OS will only see up to 3GB of RAM. Does the Mac OS has something like that?

    Mac OS X has no memory limit inherant to the operating system itself.
    However, DVD Player, and Front Row are two applications within Mac OS X that are not 64 bit.
    64 bit is not enabled by default, though if you add memory to a Mac, it will address all of it as long as the Mac's specs allow it.
    A key sequence of the 6 and 4 key force the machine to start in 64 bit mode.
    Some non-64 bit applications will unexpectedly quit in 64 bit mode.
    Some can be forced to run in 64 bit or 32 bit mode via their Finder (think Windows Explorer) File menu -> Get Info window attribute after single clicking them in the Finder.
    To learn more about 64 bit enabling on Macs, see this article:

  • Does Mac OS make PDFs suitable for going to Press?

    For some years I've been producing a series of small, relatively simple booklets (4x5", 44pp, text & scanned line-art graphics). I've been putting them together in PageMaker (v.5—yes, in OS 9), and making PDFs to go to press with Acrobat (v.5). Now I can't use PageMaker for the latest one, because it's in Japanese, which PM can't handle; so I'm trying Pages. Seems to work okay, but I'm wondering about the PDF part: Does Mac OS X's "Print to PDF" function make a PDF suitable for going to press, like the "Press" setting in Acrobat—i.e. with full-resolution graphics, etc.? (I know Mac OS's PDFs embed the fonts in the document, so that part would seem to be covered.) Anyone know if there's anything to worry about there? Anything special I need to do?
    TIA,
    Andrew Main

    Can you post a screen snap and specification of your newsletter
    What I'm working on is a reprint of the Japanese version of the Thanksgiving Address for The Tracking Project, a fine organization run by a friend of mine. The Thanksgiving Address is an ancient Mohawk prayer/invocation, thanking all the elements of the world around us for their contributions to our lives. The original version takes a week to recite (and an elder who died a decade ago may have been the last man who remembered the whole thing); this is a much abbreviated version for international distribution. We produced the first edition, in the original Mohawk and English, in 1993. A year or two later, one of John's associates in Germany said he'd like to do a German version, so we did that. And so on. We just put out an Italian version, making ten different languages, each with the original Mohawk. See below the cover and one spread from the original English version, and samples from the Hawaiian and the Japanese version, which I'm working on now.
    I did the original English/Mohawk version in PageMaker in 1993, and every version since except the Japanese, as PageMaker doesn't handle Japanese. All the others are in the Latin alphabet, though the Hawaiian required a specially modified Palatino font (with accented letters in ASCII slots) which luckily someone at the University of Hawaii had made up in the pre-Unicode days. In the 90s I was sending PageMaker 5 files to the printer, which fortunately they could open and work onto the press; only in recent years have I come across an old copy of Acrobat and learned how to distill the PageMaker files into press-ready PDFs.
    For the original Japanese version in 1999, I took the usual layout in PageMaker, with the Mohawk text but the space for the other text blank, had it printed out at a service bureau on fine paper, then made up the Japanese text in AppleWorks, had it printed, then pasted the Japanese text blocks onto the PageMaker printout, and took it to the printer, who fortunately still had a camera to photograph it. I've been in graphic arts since the 60s, and was an expert paste-up man (pretty good on the corner print shop black-and-white camera too, as well as the IBM Selectric Composer), worked on (among others) the Whole Earth Catalog in the 70s and Stereophile magazine in the 80s.
    But now it's time to reprint the Japanese version, and the translator wants to make changes, so I figured it was finally time to try updating my work into the current computer world. I have no need of InDesign (nor money to buy it—or do you have to rent it now?). I first thought of using Libre/OpenOffice (wish they'd get that straightened out) for future file compatibility, and from what I knew it seemed to have all the details I needed for this simple job. But, as a Mac user exclusively since I got my first computer in 1988, I found the program opaque, and when I early ran into a situation where a command I needed wasn't on the menu the manual said it was on, I gave up and went to Pages, which I have used a little, though there's a lot about it I don't care for. It seems like a lot of effort has been put into the façade, but some pretty shoddy work behind it.
    But I've found it not very difficult to set up the Japanese Thanksgiving Address job in Pages, only I'm concerned if the printer can use it. Thus my query here. I'll be contacting the printer, and send them a sample PDF to see if it works for them. I hope I won't have to add crop marks, as from my initial look at the Manual, it seems Master Objects are only available on WP documents (which seems dumb)—which means I would have to manually add them on all 44 pages. Anyway it's a simple job, black only, so it should be workable.
    Apple has moved so far from their old base of professional print designers it would be safe to say it isn't going to do anything to fix the issues.
    Yes, 'tis a pity indeed. Now if you could do professional graphics on an iPad, there'd probably be a lot of time put into perfecting it. The Mac, though, and what it used to do, is old hat.
    Have you thought about running a 32 bit version of OSX that supports Pagemaker in emulation?
    I tried that once, back in the OS X 10.4 days, and it made my fans go wild. Anyway, the problem is that PageMaker can't work with Japanese—or I could just run it on my G3 PowerBook as I do for the other jobs.

  • How many luns does mac OSX support from a single target (array) is it 255??

    How many luns does mac OSX support from a single target (array) is it 255?
    For example, if using the Dual-channel 4Gb Fibre Channel PCI Express card?  Is it 255, 512 or higher?  I know it uses the ATTO driver, but I can't find any documentaiton about the upper limits of how many luns this HBA can address from a single target array on a SAN.  Thanks.

    Hi,
    The card should be an ATTO 42ES whcih supports 255 LUNS per channel
    Here's the info from the attached link
    Consider the following Celerity FC host adapter guidelines:
    • ATTO 4-Gb and 8-Gb FC cards (PCI-X and PCIe only) are supported. • Latest HP-specific ATTO Celerity FC host adapter driver • Latest HP-specific ATTO Configuration Tool • A maximum of 256 targets per host adapter channel are supported. • A maximum of 255 logical unit numbers (LUNs) per host adapter channel are supported. • PowerPC- and Intel-based servers are supported.

  • Is MAC OS X v10.6.8 same as MAC OS X Snow Leopard. Since i want to download MAC OS X LION can it be downloaded on my mac which has MAC OS X v10.6.8 ??

    Is MAC OS X v10.6.8 same as MAC OS X Snow Leopard. Since i want to download MAC OS X LION can it be downloaded on my mac which has MAC OS X v10.6.8 ??

    Yes, assuming you can run Lion, & can deal with no more Save or Save As... functions...
    Lion/101.7 System requirements
        •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
        •    At least 2GB of memory, (I say 4GB)
        •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
        •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, (I say 40GB at least)
    Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
    Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

  • My Macbook Pro with 2.16GHz Intel Core Duo (Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger) can convert to Lion?

    my Macbook Pro with 2.16GHz Intel Core Duo (Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger) can convert to Lion?
    Toyoo

    These are some of the most common Questions (Q) and Answers (A) about Lion:
    Q: What are the system requirements of the Lion upgrade?
    A: Core2Duo, Core i3, i5, i7, and Xeon Intel CPUs with 2 GB of RAM in a Macintosh computer with 2 GB of RAM, and 4 GB (7 GB after installed) for downloading from the Mac App Store (Available in 10.6.6 and later). Unofficially, past upgrades have arbitrarily also required an additional 15% of the hard drive to be free for data.
    Q: What applications are compatible with Lion?
    A: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table provides a nice third party editable listing for people to include the compatible applications. Many of these compatibility entries came from before Lion's release. Please verify they are correct now that it has been released, and help edit it for more accurate data. Be sure to include any update version of Lion post release that you have found is or is not compatible with it, for the help of others who may be upgrading to Lion the first time. Additionally, as it was released, there is no Rosetta. This means any application that is stated to be PowerPC in the System Profiler, will not work with Lion, and needs a comparable application or upgrade to be compatible. The System Profiler is in Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info. Intel and Universal applications are on the whole supported, though may still need some tweaking before every feature is compatible.
    Q: Are there any pitfalls to watch out for?
    A: With all upgrades, backing up your data at least twice has been a given. Hardware can fail independently of downloads and upgrades, though may happen simultaneously. Software may be found to be incompatible that has not been tested with the new upgrade, or combination of other software that might be installed with the upgrade. It is also strongly recommended once your backup is complete, to shut down your computer, remove all but Apple wired keyboard and mouse (notebooks remove all input devices). Then once done, reboot, and go directly to the upgrade distribution system available. Third party system tools, modification, and "maintenance" applications should be verified as compatible, or removed until known to be compatible. Check with developers how to remove if it is essential to use Lion before those applications become compatible. Most "maintenance" tools that deal with system cache, prebinding, are not really maintenance tools. Ask on forum when are the appropriate times to use them before assuming they should be used for upgrades or otherwise.
    Q: How can I get from 10.4 or 10.5 to 10.6.6?
    A: Purchase a 10.6 retail installer from an Apple retail or third party reseller. It has a picture of a Snow Leopard on the DVD, and does not say Upgrade, Dropin, or OEM. Install it, and then install the 10.6.6 combo update from:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
    Q: Is it true that I can only get it from the Mac App Store?
    A: Presently this truth is based on current documentation as of the writing of this article. It may change, but we can't speculate as to its change. It has a better chance of changing if users request something different at:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    Q: What limitations might one encounter if it doesn't change?
    A: First off the 7 GB space limitation on the hard disc after it is installed. Secondly, the size of the download file requires significant time, unless you have a high speed broadband connection. Times expected are below -
    4 GB at:
    5Mbps is 2 hours.
    at 1 Mbps is 10 hours.
    at 384 kbps is 27 hours.
    at 56k kbps is 184 hours (nearly 8 days).
    If you include the 10.6.6 combo update of 1.06 GB
    add 29 minutes for 5 Mbps
    145 minutes (2 and 25 minutes) for 1 Mbps
    6 and a half hours for 384kbps
    A 24 hour day and 15 hours (for a total of a minimum of 39 hours) for 56kbps
    Remember the retail 10.6 currently does not include the App Store, and those upgrading from 10.5.8 or earlier will need to both buy the retail 10.6, and download the combo 10.6.6 update, not to mention ensure they have the correct processor and 2 GB of RAM. Finally once it is available, you'll have find out how long approximately it takes to install after the download is complete.
    These times do not include installation time, which on a MacBook Pro 3,1 15" installing on a Firewire 800 Newertech Voyager with WD10ACS-322J80 drive, 10.6.7, took 1 hour and a half to complete the installation from double clicking the install command to the registration screen. These times may vary by connection speeds from a non-dedicated connection, or background application usage of the internet. Any applications running when the installation process begins might interfere with the installation itself, and they should be quit first.
    The installer just before it starts has in its package contents an InstallESD.dmg file a DVD burnable image to install on additional computers in the home without downloading over again. So if you desire to reinstall without an extra internet download, extract that file, by selecting the installer in the dock, and control-clicking it, and revealing it in the Finder. Next Control-mouse click it, and select show package contents. Inside that folder is a Shared Support folder. That's where you find the DMG.
    Q: If I purchased a Mac recently, can I get it cheaper?
    A: Yes, visit http://www.apple.com/macosx/uptodate/ for details.
    Q: When will Lion become available?
    A: It became available July 20, 2011.
    Q: Which Macs can run Lion?
    A: Look at Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info, and see if you meet the Machine ID and RAM requires under the hardware. 2 GB is required for all These Machine IDs will run Lion:
    Mac Mini 2,1 and later
    MacBook 2,1 and later.
    iMac 5,1 and later.
    All MacBook Air.
    MacBook Pro 2,1 and later
    All MacPros.
    The Macs with the Machine IDs below will not run Lion (x can be any number):
    Mac Mini 1,x or PowerMac x,x
    MacBook 1,x
    MacBook Pro 1,x
    iMac 4,x, 3,x, 2,x, 1,x
