How do I crop pictures on my MacMini (like I can crop them on my iPhone) instead of using 3rd party apps?

When I want to crop pix on my Mac I send pictures to my iPhone where I can crop them then send 'm back to my Mac so that I can use them There must be a simpler way (beisdes forking out 5 bucks to companies that make a profit on a requirement that should be included in the MacOS). I feel I am missing out on something...

You could try and make 're-size and rotate' kinds of corrections as necessary and then make a screen shot of them on the desktop of your computer, as they should be in .jpg format or easily saved as such when done...
The default system application that opens files like text, images, and the like should be able to handle the resulting files for a peek as well.
You may be able to choose a basic application (like Preview) that was included with the OS X. You can zoom-to-fit an image into a window, then screen capture it using the standard keyboard shortcuts in OS X. I've done this in most versions of OS X (& Mac OS 7~9.2.2) and like simplicity.
Good luck & happy computing!

  • How can I Downgrade to Snow Leopard and keeping all 3rd party apps?

    New to MacBookPro and really happy. With Lion...not so much. I want to downgrade to SL, however, apparently I must reformat the hard drive. Here´s the real question: If I have a backup of my entire HD with the user, docs and all the apps I have installed (on Lion), once I downgrade to Snow Leopard, can I just move all my apps from the back up disk I have made of my Lion-Running hard drive? In other words, How can I downgrade without having to reinstall every single third party app I have?

    First, how new is this Mac?  A Mac as a rule cannot boot to an older operating system version than that with which it was originally supplied.  In other words, if this is a new MBP that came with Lion then you probably cannot get it to boot to SL.
    Some applications (and I take it you do mean full "applications" rather than "apps" which are mobile device programs -- it helps to be clear o terminology) can just be dragged from place to place.  Others, notably Adobe and Office, install things all over the place and unless you are good at finding hidden files with obscure names in 10 different places you will just have to re-install them.

    I use Microsoft XP on my PC, where r my pictures from my iPad? I need to know how to send pictures to Walgreens, etc so I can get them printed. Help please!

    I am legally blonde and not very tech savvy, so I don't really know how to do that.  I know ur time is valuable, so could u possibly give me a short tutorial?  I would b very grateful! I use the camera kit to get my pics from my sd card to my iPad and also from my iPhone to my iPad. Had I known I would have this problem, I would not have transferred my pics to my iPad until after I took the sd card and had my pics printed.

  • How can I forward an SMS as an email , i have doing this daily on 9900, surprised to miss this on Q10, i am ready to buy an 3rd party app also, if required, it is must for me.

    1. when i read an sms, there is option to forward as email in 9900.
    Since i am using Q10, i can not do this.
    I need this immediately.
    Anybody can help??
    I am ready to buy any 3rd party app also, if it can provide this without slowing down the performance.
    2. Further, i can not sms from contacts screen. There is no option to sms , when i select a contact. I have to go to SMS and there type contact name , how can i enable this?
    3. If i receive a call and i want to send sms to the person, i can not tap on called no and choose and option to sms him. I have to copy that number, go to SMS app and use that no to sms. If i am in a meeting , it is long process and kill focus in meeting. In android, there is one swipe to reject call and send an sms that i am in meeting. Can we achieve this basic features in Q10..

    I can forward a SMS as an email on my Q10.
    open the SMS and hold down on the text, this opens a side menu with the "share" icon on it (like a Y),
    Then you can select how you want to share, eg SMS, Email BBM etc.
    Hope this helps?

    How do I print a complete SMS message from my iphone without using a 3rd party app?

    If you have an AirPrint compatible printer, or you have a print app, then you could take a screenshot of each page of the message and then print them. Otherwise, there is no native solution to print SMS messages on the iPhone.

    If the photos were from Camera Roll, then they are saved on your latest iPhone backup.  You could restore the backup from iTunes (or iCloud).

  • Resolving how 3rd party apps show free space?

    I've recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and am now just learning about "Local Backups" and how they work.  This seems like a pretty neat feature and great extra data protection.  However, I now have trouble with 3rd party apps that monitor and notify about free space.  (ie iStat Menus, TechTool Pro, Disk Inventory X).  As I said, I think this new feature is great for added data protection, but it seems it has a huge flaw if it is going to make all other applications show incorrect Used/Free space.  In fact, since the Local Backup seems to use as much space as it can and will only free the space as needed, it seems every application or tool will show that the disk is always on the verge of being completely full.  Has anyone found ways around this?  Or are there any good apps that monitor and/or display free space (like iStat Menus) that can account for, or rather disregard, the space being used by Local Backup in the same way that the Finder window seems to?  I hope that in future OS updates, Apple does something about this like making the space used by Local Backup hidden in some way.

    Sorry, you didn't get my point:
    'Unintentional' means accidentally. I always wonder how people can delete files 'accidentally', requiring trashing them and then, in a second step, empty the trash.
    I do not empty my trash before having backed up, as I was pointing out. If I did, it would not be 'unintentionally'. It would be intentionally. And I should get fired. Unless I can have the backup drive there within 40 minutes.
    My point is, YOU're heading to work in the morning, not having backed up for the past 2 weeks to the external disk since your backup is always with you on your 4 months old Mac, still under warranty and unlikely to break anyway. Crossing the street from the parking lot, you need to jump to avoid some crazy driver. You make it, only your laptop slips from under your arm, drops onto the tar, and worse, before you can grab it, that bus is rolling over it. The HDD/SSD/whatever is history, and so is your work and some other important coroprate docs worth 2 weeks. Will you continue to walk into the office to resign, or will you ask the bus driver to run you over as well, please?
    My view is unchanged.
    Can we stop this here, please? My data is safe, and yours I've written off a while ago.

  • How to backup 3rd party apps data?

    Hi All,
    I have problem with backup 3rd party apps data, i was using iphone 3G start from version 2.2.0
    I was purchased and free download some apps from itunes i.e: safe note, picture safe 2, IM+, skype and some apps can be allow keeping data or record.
    But after i update to OS3.0, i found most of 3rd party apps data and setting was missing.
    This really waste my time to manually write it down and key it back or setting back.
    please Apple and apps provide company think about this problem. can just make it simple, when we doing backup, all apps data and record also can safe it. Then we not need keep doing double work.

    If the the data is stored in the backup, it should restore to the iPad when you restore the backup. If that's not happening, sometimes it's becuase the data is stored on the app's server.
    SInce you are not having any luck restoring the backup, I would do a Google search such as this one using thses parameters - without the quotes.
    "restore candy crush backup progress"
    Personally, I do not trust any game that has in app purchases like these games have. It is my paranoid belief that the game developers do not want you to be able to restore your progress.

    If you have 3rd party apps on a phone with 1.1.4, you must have a jailbroken phone. Discussion of those is heavily frowned on here. I recommend finding a forum that supports such phones.
