EPrintCenter: "Photo files will always be printed in 4x6". Huh?

ePrintCenter states "Photo files will always be printed in 4x6”. Is there a workaround? It seems presumptuous and restrictive to assume everyone wants to print jpg/gif pics on 4x6/PhotoPaper. I have a black&white scanned drawing that needs to be on larger 8.5x11 standard paper so I can read it.

Yes, instead of attaching the file, include this in the body of the email.

Photoshop loading photo files very slow (not printer)

For the past several weeks Photoshop C3 has been loading even the smallest of photo files very, very slowly -- about 10-15 seconds for one.
I read an earlier post to this affect, that said it might be a networked printer, but the printer on this computer is NOT networked.
I'm running Windows XP, latest update, with 3 gig of RAM. And we have deleted and reloaded the Photoshop program and updated it to make sure it's not a file goober in the program.
Anyone else experiencing this trend and/or have any solutions.

John:
Thanks for the effort, but alas it didnt make any difference.
Our IT support crew tried a variety of generic drivers in the default mode, but a 56k photo still took 15 seconds to load.
However, I still had a version of "Photoshop CS" on my machine. So, out of curiosity I fired up CS and grabbed the same test photos, and bam the photo popped right up. So it is definitely a CS3 issue
Any other solutions that you know of?

TIP: What to do if the Recovered Photos File will not import into iPhoto...

Like many others in this forum, I just upgraded to iWork/iLife '06. When I installed iPhoto '06 it trashed my existing iPhoto Folder and placed all of my other existing photos (those not already imported previously into iPhoto) into a recovered photos file. I tried and tried and tried to import those "recovered photos" into iPhoto but it kept returning an error message on import "Unreadable file"
Finally I selected the "recovered files" then clicked on "Get Info" and found that the permissions were "locked" with a padlock icon. Clicking once on the padlock opened the permissions back to me the "owner" and the iPhoto allowed me to import all of those 425 "recovered photos". Whew! I hope this tip helps someone else out - I had to figure this out on my own...

The fact that you can use the Raws from your XSi is of no relevance.
The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
Changing the Raw specification is one of the ways of upgrading the cameras.
IPhoto and Aperture support - or don't - the same cameras.

Photos in iPhoto don't print on 4x6 paper

I have tried printing pictures from iPhoto to my Canon MP980 printer and the picutre is printing half of the picture (almost like it is set to print a 4x6 picture on an 8.5x11 piece of paper). I have changed the printer settings numerous times to 4x6 borderless and always double check before printing. I have even dragged it to my desktop and tried printing using preview and got the same result. I have changed the physical settings on my printer to make the default 4x6 but nothing seems to work (I even tried changing from landscape to portrait which only resulted in getting a little more picture printed).

Give this a try: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
A long shot but if it works will be quicker.

I-Photo files will not open

I have a Mac OSX 10.4.11 system. Some of my iphoto files in the iphoto folder in the finder window have morphed into documents that will not open rather then the usual .jpg files. I have the thumbnails in the library but, when clicked, they open to the grey rounded corner square with the exclamation point in the center. These grey windows affect about 40 of 1000+ pictures. When getting "info" on these document type files it does not say what type of file it is, only that it gives the answer "none" as to which application can open the document/file.
I have tried rebuilding the database by opening iphoto holding down the option and command (apple) keys to no avail. This does not seem to be the usual disconnect between thumbnail and file because when going iphoto/user/library/originals the files themselves will not open.
I will appreciate any info on this --- Thank you, Jeremy

Hello Mr. Terence ---
It was a disconnect/location problem between the thumbnail and the files. I figured out this morning that the pics that were grey! bombing were all located in one folder in a larger 2006 folder.The file had pictures from both 2005 and 2006 in it so I tried moving the grey! bombing folder to the 2005 folder from the 2006 folder and Voila!! the pics were now showing up in I-Photo.
I don't know/remember if I re-labeled the problem file folder or whether or not myself or the computer did the sorting into the "year" type files. Probably my mistake because one wouldn't think that the computer itself would forget where it put/located something.
In any case, problem solved! I did have to remove the .jpg from the files that I had tried last night and that had subsequently opened in "Preview" to get them to work after re-locating the problem file. Thank you again ---

Some photo files will unzip - one won't

I've made some of my albums on Gallery downloadable so that a friend can download, unzip, and have them on her computer. All's well with every album except one. I tried re-uploading the photos in that album to a brand new album on Gallery. But even that album of photos, while it will download as a .zip file, won't unizp. i get this error every time: Unable to unarchive "filename.zip" into "Desktop". (Error 1 - Operation not permitted.)
Again, this happens ONLY with this one album of photos. No other album.
Any suggestions? It's making me crazy.

Its possible that they are taking a long time to load. Have you tried using MP4 instead?

Pdf,word,photo files will not load on Iphone5

Out of nowhere in the last day, I can not open any excel,word,or pictures sent in email or text messages. I have checked settings and could not find anything there. It is very aggravating as I have to use Quickoffice on files now to open. Any suggestions??? Thanks

If "iCloud Photo Library" is ON, try turning it off as well as "My Photo Stream". Reset the iPhone then turn My Photo Stream back on (but leave iCloud Photo Library off, for now). See if that helps.

Missing Hp media smart photo files

I am trying to import my photos from my iPad and my photo file will not load. All the other tabs work - like the video files etc. How do I reinstall this or find a solution to this? Sorry not very techie.

At the uninstall area it tells me the product definition file is lost. How do I find this?

Upgrading from CS3 to CC. Should I upgrade to CS5 or CS6 first to be sure my older files will still function?

I want to upgrade, but I want to do it smart so my files will all still open and work. Now at CS3, do I need upgrade to say, CS5 or CS6, before going to CC?

No need for that. Older files will always open.
(The other way around can sometimes be more difficult, in case of new features that weren't there in the old PS version. But that too usually works with the "maximize compatibility" option checked).

EPrint JPG Photo files always print 3.5 x 5.25"???

Is there a way to make my JPG photo files print larger than 3.5 x 5.25. On the US TV Commercial with the baby, the EPrint comes out of the printer in what looks to be an 8x10 format?????? I can't find any settings to size my photo on my EPrint Central site.

Have you tried inserting 8 x 10 photo paper in the printer tray?????
You can try copying the 8x 10 image into MS Word or PDF document and send the file as attachment
Or, copy the image directly into the mail body and see if it works or not.

When using a Seagate 1T external hard drive and Time Machine to back up hourly, if I delete photo files from the Mac hard drive before the next back up, are these retained on the Seagate drive or will they be lost (overwritten) in the next backu in the ne

Does Time Machine erase previously saved files if, say, photos are deleted from the Macbook upon the next update, or will they be stored indefinately despite the current status of the files stored on the computer? Eg. can I bckup photo files to a Seagate 1T disc and then delete them to make more room on the computer in the knowlwdge that they are always going to be on the Seagate disc? Sorry if this is very elementary but I have not used a back up before like this, and am not sure how successive backups are overlaid or retained. Thanks!!

TM is not designed to do what you ask. As Allan wrote TM is an incremental backup not an archival solution.
If you delete a file from the HD it will eventually be removed from the TM backup (if it ever makes it on to the backup at all).
How long before it is removed depends on a number of factors, TM disk drive size being one factor but not the only one.
Material that is impossible to replace and is important to you (image files usually fitting that description) need to be backed up to as least one other drive and preferably more for long term storage.

Word file will not scroll to printer in classic

I'm using microsoft office 2001. When I want to print a word file (using classic envir.), it stops until printing is completed. (I have a Canon i550 ). When working off (OS 10.2.8) Appleworks, the file quickly scrolls to printer and I can go on to something new. It used to work the same for word - not sure what happened after I opened a newer word file sent to me. I tried turning background printing on - it appears to scroll, but never prints. I reinstalled Office 2001, didn't work either. It's a home computer, not networked to anything else. Since printing works fine with Appleworks and OS 10.2.8 - I think there's a small glitch somewhere. Any ideas?
iMAC Mac OS X (10.2.x)

When you get messages from the Mac, you need to be sure what they mean, or post them here word-for-word, or both.
If you tried to set Extensions Manager to Mac OS (Base) and it complained, then either something is missing of your Mac, or someone has reconfigured it… either way, that needs to be sorted before looking at optional third-party installations, yes?
If it just seems to involve the Classic system that's probably good - anything that affected both Classic and X would probably indicate a faulty printer.
When you still get the same error message (M501) when you reistalled Office, which message was that, word for word, please?
If this was my Mac I'd be ignoring Office - the printer doesn't need Office to test or to work normally, and if only Office and no other apps are having print problems, that's 99% certain an Office, not a printer problem.
If your Mac won't let you set Extensions Manager to Mac OS (Base) then you need to use the Clean System Option in your latest OS 9 install disk to make a fresh System Folder and work from that.
The the Clean System Installation Option will give you a new working System Folder and the current one will be preserved alongside it, denatured and renamed as Previous System Folder but otherwise unchanged, so you can always go back to it.
Before trying the Clean System Installation Option you should physically disconnect everything except screen and (Apple) keyboard and mouse then Restart the Mac.
Make the Clean System Installation, launch that as Classic and install the printer precisely according to the maker's instructions.
If it doesn't work on that Clean System, it probably isn't going to, which will indicate either that it's faulty and needs replacing, or it simply isn't compatible with Classic.

Can't share photos using photo stream in iCloud. File is always blank.

Can't share photos using photo stream in iCloud. File is always blank.

Hello desert_dweller5,
It sounds like you art trying to access a Shared Photo Stream, but you do not have one of the devices to enable your Apple ID as an iCloud account. The following article provides information on how Shared Photo Streams work:
iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
The article states that for privately Shared Photo Streams to work, the recipient will not only have to have an Apple ID, but it will have to be an iCloud account:
Friends and family with iCloud accounts can view your photos in the Photos app on any device using iOS 6 or later; on a Mac in iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later; on a Windows PC with Windows Vista or later and iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed; or on a second generation or later Apple TV with software version 5.1 or later installed. They can also view your photos on the web if you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your Shared Photo Stream.
Since you do not have an iCloud account and just and Apple ID, your friend can share the photo stream as a public website so that you can view it, as stated in the same article:
Can I share with people who don't have an iCloud account?
Yes. If you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your shared photo stream your photos will be published to a website that anyone can view in an up-to-date web browser.
To be able to change an Apple ID to an iCloud account, you would need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later as stated in the following article:

YOu need to reinstall iPhoto.
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.
