How do I take one of my pics and make it my wallpaper?

I'd like to edit one of my pics and use it as a wallpaper. How do I get it the correct size so that it's not stretched and squashed, or tiled?
I appreciate your help. Please type slow... I'm a new convert!

Select the photo you want to use as wallpaper.
In the Share menu, choose Desktop.
iPhoto will fill the screen and scale the picture to fill the screen with no squashing, stretching or tiling in weird ways.

  • How do i take one layer with multiple selections...

    how do i take one layer with multiple selections and make those selections their own layer?

    Yes sir. It w was really hard to explain. It is discontiguous segments that are separated by transparent areas. And I want those non transparent areas to be on their own layer. I have a photo shop file that has a bunch of buttons on them and they are on a transparent background. It is one layer. I want to select all the buttons and put them on their own layers. I can do this manually by selecting a button and cmd Just to a new layer, but when I have 200 buttons it is a daunting task.

    how do I take all inbox messages [ 3000 ] and deleate all at one time ?

    Go to icloud.com, open Mail, then select them in batches (click the first message, scroll down, shift-click the last message) and press your delete key.  The server usually has problems deleting that many at once, so you should try a smaller number, say 500, and delete them in batches.

    Try this--go to settings>i tunes and app store>turn off automatic downlods on the device on which you do not want the app to appear.  If that setting is on, any app you buy will be downloaded to that device.

  • How do I take pictures off my nano and place them on my computer?

    How do I take pictures off my nano and place them on my computer?
    I open the drive... and there are 4 folders, contacts, calendar, notes and photos (in photos there is a folder called thumbs and a file called photo database) Not to mention my music is nowhere to be found on the drive...
    Is it even possible to take photos and songs off a ipod and place them on a computer?

    If you only copied the photos as thumbnails (and it seems you did), you can't do this by enabling disk use and dragging the photos from iPod to computer so you'll need a program such as this one.
    CopyPod Photo
    Photos as thumbnails won't be of the original quality when copied back to your computer.

    This could be problematic.
    It will depend on what model of iMac you have.
    You may want to post machine info.
    blue apple > about this mac > more info button. Click on the hardware line. It has a little triangle in front of the work hardware.
    Leave out the serial number.
    Example:
    Machine Name: iMac
    Machine Model: PowerMac4,1
    CPU Type: PowerPC 750 (33.11)
    Number Of CPUs: 1
    CPU Speed: 600 MHz
    L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
    Memory: 768 MB
    Bus Speed: 100 MHz
    Boot ROM Version: 4.1.9f1
    Most of the iMac's have sometype of video output port on the back.  You will problably need a converter.
    The 'hollywood' industry has been making it more difficult to get video out over time to prevent copying.

  • HT4436 how can i setup one account for me and my kids ?

    how can i setup one account for me and my kids ?

    One account each, or one account for all of you to share?
    Either way, follow the instructions here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    Remember, if you share an iCloud account, you won't be able to maintain independent Contact lists, calendars, bookmarks etc. They will all be synced to all devices setup using the same account.

  • Pages:  How can I sort one column of words and not have it affect the other columns?

    How can I sort one column of words and not have it affect the other columns?  I have opened the inspector to the edit columns and rows under Table.  It will sort the column, but then it changes the other colums as well.  I know that if I use Numbers, it will work, but I want to know how to do the same thing in Pages.

    Hi Peter,
    Numbers sorts full rows on values in selected column(s). The technique for sorting a single column is essentially the same as Jerry is describing for Pages tables—separate the (data in the) column to be sorted, sort it, return it to the table.
    In Numbers the actual column may be separated from the original table, sorted, then returned. In Pages, the data must be extracted, sorted, then pasted back in, overwriting the unsorted data (if it was left in the original table).
    iWork tables follow a database model in which each row is a Record, and each column holds a Field within the records.
    As evidenced by the current question (and several similar questions arising in the Numbers community) that model doesn't apply to the way some users, especially some who come in from the MS Excel world, use tables.
    With Excels model—islands of data on a single large table, the ability to sort one or a selected few columns of data makes sense. One 'island' may comprise only cells AA21:AH50. Sorting that small 'table' should be possible without disturbing the rest of rows 21-30, which are probably part of one or more other 'data islands' in the sea that is a MS Excel spreadsheet.
    In Numbers, each of those 'islands' would be a separate Table, and that Table would be sortable without disturbing other Tables in the document.

    I would like to know how can I modify one column of current and next record depending of some criteria using SQL2012?
    The criteria is:
    Type should always flow F->T
    if current abs(amount)> next abs(amount) then groupid = 'PD'
    if current abs(amount)< next abs(amount) then groupid = 'PI'
    there is no case when those amounts will be equals
    where current(custid) = next(custid) and current(service) = next(service) and groupid is null
    Any help will be really apreciated.
    Thank you

    I tried that and got this error
    'LAG' is not a recognized built-in function name.
    You said you were using SQL 2012, but apparently you are not. The LAG function was added in SQL 2012. This solution works on SQL 2005 and SQL 2008:
    ; WITH numbering AS (
       SELECT groupid,
              rowno = row_number()  OVER (PARTITION BY custid, service ORDER BY date, id)
       FROM   #ServiceChange
    ), CTE AS (
       SELECT a.groupid,
              CASE WHEN abs(a.amount) < abs(b.amount) THEN 'PD'
                   WHEN abs(a.amount) > abs(b.amount) THEN 'PI'
              END AS newgroupid
       FROM  numbering a
       JOIN  numbering b ON b.custid  = a.custid
                        AND b.service = a.service
                        AND b.rowno   = a.rowno - 1
    UPDATE CTE
    SET   groupid = newgroupid

    You can neither merge or delete them. Pick one and stop using the other. If they both have purchases associated with them you will have to keep using both.
