How can I change resolution from 72 ppi to 144 ppi?

Adobe's CS allows me to change the resolution of an image from 72 ppi to 144 ppi (Image | Image Size). Does iPhoto have a similar capability? Terence Delvin has previously posted how to resize an image to a specified dimension (iPhoto 8 | Installing | Resize), but I also need to change the resolution. iPhoto is so wonderful it's a shame to have to export a file and open it in CS if this is all I wish to do. Thanks, in advance.

Seriously, it is a photo competition where digital images are displayed through a computer/digital projector setup. The organization's requirements (not mine) are 1024 pixels on the longest side and maximum 144 ppi. Adobe resizes like this in both the CS and also Elements and when the file is then saved it keeps the 144 ppi and its size decreases (for example, from 3.22MB to only 751KB). I just would like to make my life simpler and use iPhoto to accomplish the resize.
OK I see. I am still confused as to their requirement of 144 ppi as the 1024 on the longest size will resize down for you.
I don't think iPhoto can change the ppi but you can resize down. Pick the photo, go to File -> Export... and then under size pick custom. On the pull down if you pick "dimension" then type in 1024 in the box under that, it will automatically output a new version of your photo with 1024 as the max size and you get a nice smaller file.
However, the PPI setting remains the same since this is a print setting and when displayed on a monitor or digital projector, it will display at exactly 1024 by whatever the other side is, assuming the program displaying it displays at 100%.
Let me poke around a bit more and see if I can come up with something.
Perhaps a simple exif editor (rather than having to open it in Elements or CS) that you can quickly change the PPI setting of the exported image. I'll have to look and see what is available.

    The problem is in the mail account preferences!

  • How can I change the "From:" field in iOS Mail?

    This is a weird one.
    I have a gmail work email account that has been set up for me. There's a primary email address assigned to it, and a secondary one (which is the one I want to use).
    No problem at all sending from the secondary account on my MacBook Pro. I just hit the drop down menu by the "From:" field, and I can select it from there.
    However, when I send from my iPhone, I'm only given the option of sending from my primary email address, not the secondary one. This is despite the fact that I've synced Mail accounts via iTunes.
    Any idea how I might fix this so I can send from the secondary account on my iPhone?

    First of all, please fill in the Computer Model and Operating System fields on your My Settings’s profile (and click Save). This is essential information that should always be provided when asking for help.
    Now, what does “I can't change it” mean? What appears in the From header of the messages you send is determined by your Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Account Information settings...

  • How can I change everything from my old account to my new one?

    I have had a shared account with my family for about 5 years, but now I am planning to make a new account just for myself. How can I move all my music, apps, books, movies, etc to my new account? Will I lose any items? How do I authorize my iphone to the new account?

    Items purchased with one account remain permanently linked to that account and cannot be transferred to another account.  You will have to use purchases from two accounts which may be troublesome in some situations.   Make sure you maintain backups on local drives so you minimize the need to re-download purchases.

    How can this be done?

    Forms do nothing by themselves.  You'll need a script to process the form data.  Ask your host which form to email processing script you can use on your server.  Often they will point you to one.  If they don't, there are some services or 3rd party scripts you can use to collect data from your site.

  • How/can I change the "from" address in Mail?

    I just upgraded to Mountain Lion, and have come across a problem.
    I use iCloud for my mail account, but I want to change the "from" address - so the return address on my messages is NOT icloud.
    I could do this in Lion.
    In the mail account settings, there's an option that says "alias" and it lists (me)@mac.com, (me)@me.com and (me)@icloud.com, and then "custom" is an option.
    Great!
    So I choose Custom, and then I can type in the "from" address that I want.
    However, when I go to save those changes, it tells me the SMTP server can't be left blank.
    What?
    It's not blank! I didn't touch it. The icloud server is still there!
    Furthermore, it's greyed out, so even if it WERE blank, it's not like I can edit it!
    Once this happens, the only fix is to delete the whole account from mail, and to disable mail in the icloud control panel, then re-add it.
    Has anyone figured out to work around this?

    Apple's outgoing mail server - just like 99.9% of all other SMTP servers, does not allow "relaying", meaning you use a domain in the 'sent from' address that is different from a domain hosted by the server. The simple reason is to make it harder for any spammer - not assuming you are one - to abuse the server. While bandwidth, server capacity and server load are some issues, the main fear for ISPs is to get blacklisted, and consequently mails from such server being refused by all others.
    It's a general rule, and while exceptions might be technically possible, it would be a manual act which at a certain rate would become unmanageable.
    If you want, read about the antonym, open mail relay servers, here.
    You see, it's actually good behavior and absolutely in your interest to prevent you from using a "non-in-house" 'sent from' address.

  • How can I view resolution in DPI and not PPI?

    Hi all,
    Under Bridge>view content as list, I got a column of Resolution but the mesurement are ppi and not dpi and i need to see the dpi.
    Anyone knows where can i set it?
    thanks..
    shlomit

    Shlomit,
    Strictly speaking, images do not have dpi (ever), only ppi.  Images are made of pixels, not dots.
    Dpi refers to prints.
    However, in everyday use, the terms are loosely used interchangeably.  They work out to exactly the same thing (same numbers), but ppi is the correct terminlogy.
    See:  http://www.scantips.com/basics01.html
    DPI, PPI, SPI - What's in a name?
    Printer ink dots and image pixels are very different concepts, but both use the term dpi in their own way (dots per inch).
    Inkjet printer dpi ratings refer to printer ink dots (the four colors of ink), which is NOT AT ALL the same thing as image pixels. These are such different concepts that some people think we should reserve the term dpi for those inkjet ink dots, and reserve use of ppi only for image pixels. Not a bad plan, except that this view fails to recognize real world usage.
    We may hear scanning resolution called spi (Samples Per Inch), and that is indeed what it is. We often hear image resolution called ppi (Pixels Per Inch), and that is indeed what it is. The spi and ppi terms are correct. But historical and common usage has always said dpi for image resolution, meaning pixels per inch, and fully interchangeable with ppi. Pixels are conceptually a kind of colored dot too, and resolution has always been called dpi, for years before we had inkjet printers. Dpi is just jargon perhaps, but it is a fact of life. Scanners and scanner ratings say dpi too, meaning pixels per inch (see dialog pictures here, here, here, and here).  I habitually always say dpi myself, but I did try to switch to ppi in the book version.
    We may use the term of our own preference, but we need to understand it both ways. Some photo editor programs have switched to saying ppi now, which has much to be said for it. But others have not switched, so insisting on conformity for others to only say ppi will necessarily encounter much frustration, because the real world simply isn't that way, and obviously is not ready to switch yet.
    My point here is that we must understand it both ways, because we will see it both ways, often, in the real world.
    It's easy, not a problem - the idea of printing digital images is always about pixels per inch, so when the context pertains to images instead of printers, all of these terms, spi, ppi, and dpi, are exactly the same equivalent concept - they all mean pixels per inch.
    There is no problem understanding any use of dpi if you know the context. It always means the only thing it can possibly mean. If the context pertains to images or printing pixels, dpi means "pixels per inch". If the context pertains to inkjet printer ratings, dpi means "ink dots per inch". There is no other meaning possible. This should be clear and no big deal - the English language is full of multiple context definitions.

  • Meter: how can i change meter from 3/2 to 3/4 without rewriting everything

    Hello
    I am using Logic to arrange songs for large orchestras. I am now arranging a song which was originally written in 3/2 but I defenitely wanna change it to 3/4. It is not only a matter of time signature but I wanna go from 3 half notes to 3 quarter notes in 1 bar, and therefore change the tempo to half the speed.
    Everybody will prefer reading charts in 3/4 with 16th notes rather than 3/2 with 8th notes.
    Is there anyway I can do this without going manually from every notes to their half, changing the tempo to its half and take every note (in either keboard or part window) and rewrite everything ?
    I hope you get what I mean.
    Thanx a lot
    Pascal

    Hi
    This can be relatively straightforward:
    A bar of 3/2 will be twice as long as a bar of 3/4 (at the same tempo). Convert the Time Sig to 3/4, then "timestretch" all the MIDI regions using the Option tool to make them 1/2 as long.

  • Satellite M50-156: How can I change resolution for my external monitor?

    Hi,
    I bought an exernal monitor for my laptop M50-156 which has a resolution of 1920x1080.
    But the problem is that such a resolution is not available in the display settings of my computer!
    I tried to update the graphic card and chipset, but the max resolution I have is 1280x1024!
    So my external monitor cannot display properly :( Did anybody have the same problem?
    Please help.. Thanks.
    Beb

    > But the problem is that such a resolution is not available in the display settings of my computer!
    The resolution is not available and this says everything!!! Its not possible to choose this and you will have to use another resolution!
    There are two reasons why your favorite external resolution is not available:
    1) the graphic card chip does not support this
    2) or the graphic card driver does not contain this resolution.
    In your user manual you can find all supported and available external resolution
    But I assume the 1920x1080 is not supported
