How can I use Photoshop to take a section of a photo and make it a Photo?

I am sorry to sound so stupid and have typed this question about 5 times now trying to get it to the right forum. I have Photoshop Elements 10 which I work with sparingly. I would like to outline a section of the photo (a face) and somehow select it to be the whole photo - in other words to get rid of all background elements. I can outline the area with lasso, but do not know how to just save that area. When I save, the whole original photo is saved. I also tried the magic extractor, which really worked to make just the face and crop everthing else out, but it has a white background the same size as the original photo, which means it is essentially a reactangle with a face in it. I am trying to just get the face so I can paste it into a document, sort of like when people put heads on fake bodies. This is for a church newsletter. I have done this with my old Picture It software, but that was on my old computer. I think I should be able to do this with all the gadgets Photo Shop has, but I must be missing something.

When you have completed your lasso selection, you should see the "marching ants", the animated outline around the area you selected. Don't click in the photo again or you will lose your selection. When the selection is active (ants are marching), just press Ctrl+C (command+C on a mac) to copy the selection. Then you can paste it into another photo by using Ctrl+V (command+V), or go to File>New>From Clipboard to save the face into a separate file so you can use it later.

How can I use photoshop Elements 8 to make a DVD to play on a regular TV-DVD? [was:DVD-CD-r]

How can I use photoshop Elements 8 to make a DVD that will show on a regular TV-DVD set-up

You can't do this in PSE by itself. I'm assuming you have windows, so output your slideshow as a wmv file and then use Premiere Elements to finalize the disc, if you have that. If not, use whatever you do have (if you can burn DVDs, you have software). Even windows dvd maker will do this.

Your question is at best vague. You need to explain properly what it actualyl is you are having problems with. does the program not run? Does it not install? Do you not know how to use it? What else?

It would appear under the organizer tab that the photos are organised in the lowest folder in the folder structure within Windows Explorer. How can I use the Windows Explorer structure to organise the photos within Elements.

In a situation such as yours, I tend to consolidate items into folders so I have folders of nice workable numbers of images, somewhere between 20 and 200 images. Now, whatever, once you've imported, do your moving within LR, not the OS! I will select all in a folder and drag into a folder a level or two or three above, and then delete the newly empty subfolders. I hope this helps a bit!
Once you've reached just new Imports of camera output, you'll be flying along.

How can I use photoshop elements with photos

Title says it all. I would like to use Photoshop Elements to edit my photos--how do I open them in PSE?

Yes your edits will be there if you import the edited version. Yes it will go to the Cloud with the edits. What you read is that edits made in iPhoto and Aperture after the library has been migrated will not be available in Photos. But you could still export from iPhoto/Aperture to the Finder and then import to Photos, like with PSE.

How can i use my old airport express with my new imac and wireless hp print

i just bought my first imac (intel) and a wireless hp printer. i now realize that a wireless connection between my imac and my printer needs a router.
i have an airport express base station, which is a few years old. I can't find my documentation, so i don't know its specifications.
how can i find out the specs of the airport express i have and whether i can use it now? it says that it is model a1084 100-240v~ 0.2a 50-60 hz.
does that tell any knowledgeable people out there about the specs? can i search the apple website by serial number and find the specs?
thank all of you potential responders ahead of time.

How can I use an external hard drive to both back up and free up storage on my macbook?

I've used a hard drive to back up my 2012 Macbook Pro via Time Machine, but I'm not sure how to use it as external storage to move things like video and music off of my Mac to free up memory and then how to move the same things from the hard drive on to other devices like my iPad or iPhone. For instance, I have a ton of movies and would like to store most of them on an external hard drive so that they aren't taking up all of my memory on my Mac, but want to be able to move them easily back onto my phone or iPad. Also, can I use the same hard drive to both back up my computer and use it for external storage? If so, how do I do that?

Always use two drives for this: one for backup; the other for storage. Don't mix the two uses on one drive. There's a greater risk of data lost without that redundancy.
If you plan to backup using Time Machine, then be sure the backup drive's capacity is at least twice that of the drive you are backing up.

How can I use two single-dimensional arrays-one for the titles and array

I want to Use two single-dimensional arrays-one for the titles and one for the ID
Could everyone help me how can i write the code for it?
Flower
public class Video
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
int[][] ID =
{ {145,147,148},
{146,149, 150} };
String[][] Titles=
{ {"Barney","True Grit","The night before Christmas"},
{"Lalla", "Jacke Chan", "Metal"} };
int x, y;
int r, c;
System.out.println("List before Sort");
for(c =0; c< 3; ++c)
for(r=0; r< 3; ++ r)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[c][r]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles[c][r]);
System.out.println("\nAfter Sort:");
for(c =0; c< 3; ++c)
for(r=0; r< 3; ++ r)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[c][r]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles[c][r]);

This is one of the most bizarre questions I have seen here:
public class Video
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
int[] ID = {145,147,148, 146,149, 150};
String[] Titles= {"Barney","True Grit","The night before Christmas", "Lalla", "Jacke Chan", "Metal"};
System.out.println("List before Sort");
for(int i = 0; i < Titles.length; i++)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[i]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles);
System.out.println("\nAfter Sort:");
for(int i = 0; c < Titles.length; i++)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[i]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles[i]);
Generally you don't use prefix (++c) operators in you for loop. Use postfix (c++).
Prefix means that it will increment the variable before the loop body is executed. Postfix will cause it to increment after.

How can I use iCloud to receive emails from my GMail account and when I reply, the reply email shows the email in which it was sent to, not the @iCloud address?

I have my GMail account forwarding my emails to my @iCloud.com account which I like, but when I reply, it shows my address as @iCloud.com instead of the email address that was originally addressed to. Anyway to have iCloud reply to emails using the email address in the original email?

You can't use iCloud's outgoing server to send with anything other than the iCloud address as the 'From' address. On your Mac you can set Mail to use the GMail outgoing server with your iCloud account (but then you can just access your GMail there anyway, so there's little point). On the iCloud website you can't do this; there is no way of using your Gmail address.

How can i use an ao card (pci 6723) to output data and to trigger an ai o acquire the data coming from the ao card?card (pci 6254) t

Hello
I am trying to perform AO (pci 6723) and to trigger my AO card (pci
6254) to read the data coming from the AO card. I am using LV7,1,
win2000.
Is an RTSI cable necessary or I can connect the trigger signals externally ?
I am using the LV example " multi function - synch ai-ao.vi" but i can't for some reason configure the trigger lines.
thank you in advance for your time.
Yiannis

Hello Yiannis,
If I understand you correctly, you want to synchronize your analog input and analog output that are started by a trigger on the analog input board. If you don't want to use the RTSI lines, your best bet is to export the AI Sample Clock and then read it in to the AO board. There is an example on ni.com called DAQmx - Synchronized AIAO Shared Clock. It appears to be having techincal issues so I have attached the example below. To export ai/sampleclock, use DAQmx Export Signal.vi after Get Terminal Name with Device Prefix.vi. Export Sample Clock to PFI3 (There are only connections between the sample clock and PCI3/4/8/9). Connect PFI3 on your AI board to PFI0 on your AO board (with a wire). Then change the source for the AO Timing.vi to Devx/PFI0. If you want to do triggering, stick the DAQmx Trigger.vi between the Timing property node and the DAQmx Start.vi on the AI task. I have shown how to do this in the modified version below. Please take a look at it and let me know if you have any questions. If you still get an error please take a screenshot of it and post to the forum. Have a great day!
Sincerely,
Marni S.

How can I use Hash Table when processing the data from cdpos and cdhdr

Hello Guru,
I've a question,
I need to reduce the access time to both cdhdr and cdpos.
Because may be I'll get a huge number of entries.
It looks like that by processing cdhdr and cdpos data will take many secondes,
it depends on how many data you need to find.
Hints : Putting instructions inside a form will slow down the program?
Also, I just want use Hash table and I need to put a loop-instruction going on the hash-table in form.
I know that it's no possible but I can declare an index inside my customized hash table.
For example :
DO
READ TABLE FOR specific_hash_table WITH KEY TABLE oindex = d_oindex.
Process data
d_oindex += 1.
UNTIL d_oindex = c_max_lines + 1.
Doing this would actually not necessary improve the performance.
Because It looks like I'm having a standard table, may be there's a hash function, but it could be a bad function.
Also I need to use for example COUNT (*) to know how many lines I get with the select.

How can i use my phone if i forgot the apple id and password to activate my phone

i reset my iPhone 4s because it has been disabled and once i go in its feeling me i have to activate it but i can't remember what apple id and password i used. i need help!

How many Apple IDs do you have? The prompt should show you a few letters from the email address to remind you. You can always reset your password using this page:
https://appleid.apple.com/
Resetting the password will require that you have access to the email address associated with the AppleID or that you remember your security questions.
If you cannot reset the password , take it to an Apple Store with your proof of purchase and they may help you.
