Email-to facilitate emailing a photo by gmail or AOL, I reduce the file size. Is it better to reduce the image size or increase the jpg compression?

To facilitate emailing a photo by gmail or AOL and avoid overwhelming the recipient's screen, I reduce the file size. Is it better to reduce the image size or increase the jpg compression? I have been making a duplicate image of 35 MB and reducing the image size to 8"x12" at 72 resolution giving a file size of 1.4 MB. Then I SAVE AS a jpg of medium compression giving a file size of about 111 KB. Overkill?

Go to File>save for web.
I usually make the long side 800 px
At the bottom of the dialog, check "constrain proportions."
At the top, select JPEG in the dropdown for the file format.
All the work is done for you! 72px/in is ok for web work. 240-300px/in is the recommended range for printing.

Hi,
The D810 requires Camera Raw 8.6 or later - the latest version that is compatible with Photoshop Elements 12 is Camera Raw 8.5 as far as I can see.
You need to either buy a new version of Photoshop Elements or use the free Adobe DNG converter.
DNG Converter 8.8

I am trying to send a photo in an email and the file is huge. I remember something about sending the file with less detail and therefore reducing the size. How?

I am trying to send a photo in an email and the file is huge. I remember something about reducing the size of the file but of course can't remember how.

Use a utility such as Graphic Converter to change the image to a jpeg using options to reduce the size of the converted image.

Emails sent to me are sometime returned to the sender with the message "Inbox full" even though I have maybe less than 100 emails in the Inbox and I regularly compact them. How can I increase the storage space?

Question
Emails sent to me are sometime returned to the sender with the message "Inbox full" even though I have maybe less than 100 emails in the Inbox and I regularly compact them. I delete emails from the Inbox and the Sent and Trash boxes to overcome this. How can I increase the storage space to stop this happening?

Hi terrybohle1938,
Firefox is a web browser. It provides access to online content. Things like your email are handled by the content provider. Who is your email provider? You'll have better luck consulting their documentation.
That being said, deleting only email is a great way to free up space. Another option would be to purchase a "Premium" account if your email provider offers this service. Many times more storage space is offered as part of paid subscription.
Hopefully this helps!

I have a new Mac Book Pro, and just like my last Mac, I somemtimes cannot open emails, or delete emails, w/Firefox. Plus the browser along with the Hotmail Browser is very slow. At first I thought it was the old Mac. But not so. Ideas?

To free up hard drive space the best bet is to move data files that you don't need access to all the time. Likely candidates are music, video, and photos. Things like word processing and spreadsheet files can also be moved but they tend not to be very large and so don't free up much space. The problem with moving the above mentioned files is that iTunes and iPhoto need to know where the files are stored.
Here's an article explaining how to move the iTunes folder. You can move the iPhoto library using the Finder but there is a slight complication. Start iPhoto, open the Preferences and click on the Advanced tab. The first option is "Copy items to the iPhoto Library". If this option is checked, copy the iPhoto library to your external folder (drag it from the Pictures folder to your external drive) and then delete it from your Picture folder. If this option is not checked, it is a bit more complicated and we'll need to talk a bit.

Duplication issue related to photo stream, Moments, and how iPhoto handles images coming in from the stream.

Pre-iOS 8 deleting photos from the stream was easy & comprehensive while within the 1000 pic/30 day window. Deletions affected ALL DEVICES, including the iPhoto Library. It just worked. This was controlled from the Cameral Roll.
Now that the Camera Roll is back, the function described above wasn’t restored. Streamed images are copied to the Library and do not get removed as before when deletions happen from the Camera Roll or from the Streamed album.
In iOS Moments LOADS of duplicate pairs appear as a result. One of each pair has a trash can and the other doesn’t. The trash can one informs the user that the photo will be deleted from the stream and all devices, but it does not delete the image from the Library on the Mac.
Can we get the pre-iOS8 image management from Cameral Roll back without having to re-delete images from iPhoto Library on the Mac. Otherwise what’s the point of the photo stream?
Mac Pro w/10.9.5
iPhone 6 w/ iOS 8.1
iPhoto 9.5.1 w/ 8052 images
Using photo stream, but NOT iCloud betas

Anything you save to the camera roll automatically gets put into the photo stream. You do not need to import and export to the computer as ckuan said. I have saved from email and the web and when they get saved they go into the photo stream automatically.

After editing a photo, I sometimes get an error message that the "File is empty". Can revert to original and start again, but file disappears after editing.

So frustrating! I open the photo. Edit by cropping, adjusting color, etc. It's perfect. I click DONE and move on to the next. When I come back, the first photo is gone. I can see it in the album but cannot open it. When I look at the file information, it shows zero KB. If I move it to the desktop and try to open it, the error message says the file is empty. I can revert to original and there it is. Edit again, and again it disappears. What am I doing wrong? I am using iPhoto 09

You shooting with a Nikon? We've seen a few examples of this bug with Nikons on 09 and 10.6, with no solution except to upgrade.

Are the photos in the file 'iphoto library' duplicates of whats already in the finder? Also what would happen if i were to delete it?

So i found this iphoto library file and its a solid 10gb large, yet i still have all my photos seperate in my finder. I need to free up some space and i was wondering if i could delete this file without losing all my photos.

Really important question:
Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

Hi All, I recently bought a Mac Book Pro and transferred all my photos from my hard drive onto the Mac. I realised that there were some folders which didn't have the camera information embedded in the files and these files refuse to open on iPhoto. HELP!!

Hi All, I recently bought a Mac Book Pro and transferred all my photos from my hard drive onto the Mac. I realised that there were some folders which didn't have the camera information embedded in the files and these files refuse to open on iPhoto. I know that the folders that have the problem were not transferred to the hard drive via a photo transfer application (I have a Canon camera) but I simply copied them out of the photo card and onto my old PC.
Is there some way I can open these pictures on my Mac? They work fine on a PC.

Thanks for your reply.
The files don't open in preview either. In preview I get the error message 'The file "xxxx_xxx.jpg" could not be opened. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognize'. The folders with these un-openable pictures do not even get imported into iPhoto. When I try to import them I get an error message about the files being unreadable.
The color profile information on the un-openable files is not visible but I see that all the other files from my old drive are RGB.

Have issues emailing photoshop element 12 photos via gmail.

Issues sending photoshop element 12 photos via gmail. I cannot zip the files (too large) and have tried to convert PSD to JPG

There is a limit to the file attachment when sending through AdobeEmailService. You may try using Outlook or other such desktop email clients if working with larger attachments.
Thanks

No matter what acct I send an email from it gets sent from my gmail

I only have 2 accts set up on my iPhone: gmail (personal) and bethelmaine.org I can receive email into both accts with no problem, but when I try to reply from my bethelmaine acct the recipient gets it from my gmail acct. I know for a fact the Cc/Bcc, From: line is bethelmaine.org and I also know that the recepient gets it as gmail because I tested it several times by sending to my wife's yahoo acct. This happens when the primary server (under settings: mail, contacts, calendars: accounts) is turned off.
The bethelmaine acct outgoing server is set up in Outlook as smtp.megalink.net. When that is set up as the primary server and turned on I get a message that says "the recipient was rejected by the server" no matter who I try to send to.
Not sure what to do!

It seems pretty clear to me.
When you turn off your primary account the only active account the phone can send via is your Gmail account, and that's what you're seeing.
The question is why do you need to turn off the primary account.. which you answer:
When that is set up as the primary server and turned on I get a message that says "the recipient was rejected by the server
That's because your ISP (megalink) is using access controls to manage who sends mail through their mail server. The first thing they're probably doing is using IP address restrictions - essentially saying they'll only relay mail from any machine on their network (including dialup/DSL/etc. customers), but you're not on their network, you're on an AT&T (or Verizon) 3G connection which isn't in their IP address range, and therefore not valid as far as their mail server is concerned.
The typical solution to this is authentication - by authenticating to their server (via username and password) you identify yourself as a customer and they should relay your messages. So check your phone to ensure that you have authentication enabled for your primary mail account.
If that fails (e.g. they don't support authenticated SMTP) the next option would be to relay the message through your cell provider's mail server - as an AT&T wireless customer you should be able to relay through AT&T's mail server... likewise for Verizon (or whatever national carrier your iPhone is on). You'll need to check with your carrier's site for the specifics of the mail server address to use.

Hi you have basicly 2 Options.
1 -if you Switch One fotostream on all 3 devices of yours which are working on the same apple id -all Fotos you Take with your iPad will be synchronized via icloud to the other 2 decvices ( w-lan and battery depending).
2- If you select foots or a whole album in iPhoto on your air or iMac and choose than puplish --> fotostream --> new or existing event you can key in a friends mail. If this friend has iCloud and iPhoto ( for iMac or MacBook ) and click on the link in the email it will download this fotos in the fotostream section in iPhoto. If he has a iPad, iPhone,... It will do it in the foto app and if he doesn't have a iCloud account at all and you choose "public web site" while publishing he can see your fotostream on a website.

If you do have two gmail email, how can you switch from one gmail to another?

I do have to gmail account and i dont know how i can set up both of them on my iphone at the same time. How to switch from one email to another?

You can add as many e-mail accounts as you want. Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts,Calendars to add them.
When in the mail app,you can have all inboxes displayed together (unified inbox) or you can tap the "Mailboxes" arrow in the upper left and select which one you want.
