How can I remove the white background of a JPG file?

When I paste a JPG file into a document, it includes the white square background. The image is round and I want to get rid of the white corners. How do I either import the image without the background square, or make the white part transparent?

>How do I either import the image without the background square...
Can't be done with a JPG.
>...or make the white part transparent?
You can use a clipping mask.
Do you have Photoshop?
Please tell us your Illustrator and Photoshop versions.

How can I remove the white background of an object in CS6

I went into YouTube as well, and indeed: It didn't remove the white background.
Then I went into Photoshop and was surprised: It was able to remove the white background by just playing around with the Magic Wand Tool. I also went into other programmes similar to Photoshop and was excited that there were connatural ways to remove the white background. Finally, I went into Illustrator and observed that the clipping path route worked. Even in CS6.
Not sure why it didn't work for you.

How do i remove the white background from a logo and save it to my computer without the background

how do i remove the white background from a logo and save it to my computer without the background

Is the logo in a pixel layer surrounded by white?
You could make it a layer if it isn't already, then use the Layer Style dialog and set the Blend If parameter so that it will make light colors transparent...
You can composite it into a web page with transparency by saving it as a PNG file, as JJMack has noted.

The excellent and free utility Irfanview has the option to remove the EXIF data.
Simply open and the file and do a Save, or Save As with the original name.
Surprisingly, the default is to not keep the original EXIF data.

How do I remove the white background from a drawing

I have Elements 10 and I have scanned in a drawing and need to remove the white background from the drawing. Can someone please help me with this?

Double-click the background layer to make it a regular layer.
Use the magic wand and click in the white (experiment with tolerance level), make sure contiguous is NOT checked.
Press Delete.

Neale

How can I remove the gradient background & border from an ImageIcon?

Problem1: Hey, I have a program that randomly displays a stop sign that I'm supposed to click on as fast as I can. And I created a gif with the stop sign, with it's background transparent. But when I added it to my application using an ImageIcon, whatever's supposed to be transparent in the gif is shown up as a gradient. There's also a border around the ImageIcon. Is there any way to get rid of these? Thanks
Problem 2: I also have a background for my entire application, but it stays the same size no matter if I maximize the application or run it on a different screen size. Is there any way to scale a background (it's animated), to the full screen?
Thanks again! It's for a project due tomorrow. I'm doing final touches.
Here's some of my code. It's really long, so I took out what I think is related. JButton stopSign1 = new JButton();
this.getContentPane().add(stopSign1,null);
         ImageIcon stopSign = new ImageIcon("Dead_End.gif");
         stopSign1.setBounds(new Rectangle(randomX, randomY, 150, 150));
         stopSign1.setIcon(stopSign);
         stopSign1.setVisible(false);

Try stopSign1.setBorder(null);
stopSign1.setOpaque(false);Also, in future, post Swing questions in the Swing forum.

How can I remove the background sound from the headphone jack for my MacBoo

for my MacBook Air problem adding music intensifier (Panasonic ST-HT1000) to give it an unpleasant sound background that sounds like a whiz, it's not so loud, but it is an unpleasant .. after a short time can get used to, but the fizz does not pass, however, believe that it is a big problem.
Further I notice that when MacBookAir disconnected from the charger, it remains quieter sound.
At first thought that the headphone jack (3.5 mm Headphone:
Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack) or wiere have problem, but tried 3 different cables, but that does change enything, the problem remains.
When I added iPhonu3GS playing - the background sound were not, then everything is OK!

There is no way to bring that up unless you have it typed in a document. You can use My Support Profile to find a list of serial numbers that have been purchased or registered with your Apple ID.

How can i remove the shuffle feature from my nano?

How can I remove the shuffle feature from my nano? I apparently "shook" it and now it is on shuffle. I can go to settings and remove the shake feature but I can't seem to restore my playing options to a generic loop instead of the shuffle. Help!

chelseafromco: I had the same problem and had an awful time before finding a clear explanation of the solution. Forget the iPod nano 6Gen manual, p. 21; it doesn't tell you how to turn the feature off, just how to turn it on. Not all of us like randomizing our playlists. APPLE: PUT UP AN ARTICLE EXPLAINING SIMPLY HOW TO DO THIS. Meanwhile, here's what worked for me:
1. Go to the "Now Playing" icon and tap the "Play" arrow in the center.
2. On the touch screen that comes up (you'll see an eighth-note graphic with the song title superimposed at the top, a Play/Pause button in the middle, and "Reverse" and "Forward" buttons on either side of that), swipe your finger to the left (not to the right).
3. This touch screen will have a "Repeat" symbol with two arrows like a snake eating its tail on the left and another symbol on the right that shows two arrows pointing to the right. This is the "Shuffle" symbol. Touch the Shuffle symbol so it's white, not blue. White means that Shuffle is off.
4. To make sure you won't accidentally turn Shuffle on, which you can do by giving the iPod a shake, go to the main Settings icon, cick it and select "Music," then press "Shake to Shuffle" until the button next to it says "Off" (white, not blue).
Hope this helps. By the way, in case you were wondering: The whirling-molecule symbol in the center of the "Now Playing" controls is the Apple "Genius" symbol. This is to remind us that Apple's manuals are created by people who don't know that customers need instructions on how to turn things off as well as how to turn them on.

How do I remove the solid background behind the docker?

On OSX Yosemite upgrade, it seems I am forced to have a non-transparant background on the dock in Yosemite. How do I remove the solid background of the dock, so that only icons appear on the dock, and nothing else? In short, looking for a transparency option for the docker background. Thanks.

I am also a bit unhappy with some of the customizations lost... especially with appearance.
I feel that people should have a bit more control over fonts and colours, and I don't necessarily appreciate some of the "dumbed down" applications,(like iPhoto, for instance).
I will certainly not be tossing Aperture... was saddened that it's no longer going to be an upgradable application for much longer. Just updates to support new OS's. iPhoto is sadly inadequate, and I prefer Aperture and it's many plug-ins to Lightroom, far and away!
I do understand that the GUI is really meant to make the experience of OS's as visually seamless across all devices as can be, partly in needing to cater to a device-rich-knowledge-poor population of users. But I also understand that the less sophisticated rendering of objects,(like icons, menu bars etc.), makes for a leaner, faster GUI/OS. I can state honestly that my iMac runs Yosemite faster than it ran Mavericks... and has done since installing Beta version 1. And there is a smaller footprint...= more room for my photography,(I'm an art photographer), and my audiophile grade lossless music files.
Apple has always limited customization options; we've never been able to choose menu bar colours, particularly, or do too much with item text font choices. Not everybody is a "weak" user, and settings could be a bit more creatively available. Nice thing about Apple always has been that, if you screwed up, it has always been easy to fix things. And there's always Time Machine, if things went REALLY awry!
Being able to hide the top menu bar, as we can hide the dock, would be lovely. Now that there is a duplicate bar on my second monitor, I find it even more annoying to be ever present.
BTW.... I prefer the "dark" option to the light version, and use "graphite" instead of blue... the lollipop colours of the buttons in "blue" just grit my teeth for me.
I keep sending feedback to Apple, asking for more customization.
Here's hoping!
Cheers!

Hello Mudassar,
In SQL Server / T-SQL we don't have a native JSON support, so you would have to implement a solution on your own = parsing the string and remove the "Key" + it's value.
