How do i determine the file size of a down load before i download it?

I have checked the update page and even checked more and can find no reference to file size.  I'm using a hotspot and some of the downloads cause me to go over my limit and incur extra charges.  I apperciate your help.

  • Where can I find the file sizes for each application before downloading?

    Where can I find the file sizes for each application before downloading? I have limited download (525 MBs/day) because of Hughsnet and I need to know each applications total size before I download.

    You can go to the trial page to get an estimated size.  As the Creative Cloud products change over time though this may become less accurate.
    If you are on a limited bandwidth account then you may want to consider purchasing a perpetual copy of Creative Suite 6 as opposed to subscribing to the Creative Cloud.

    I know this is a simple question, and I have a work around by just emailing the file to me, but I want to know how I can see the file size as I work on the file within keynote.....on the iPad.
    Thanks

    Select the album, Select all photos in the album, then click on the info button.   Number of photos and total size are on  top of info pane.

  • How do you determine the optimal size for Mozilla Firefox?

    How do you determine the optimal size for cache in Mozilla
    Firefox? I am using Firefox 7.0.1 on a 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate operating system with 3GB RAM and 300 GB hard drive, but I have other computers running Windows XP. If the answer doesn't apply to all current versions of Firefox on all supported Windows operating systems, please explain the differences. Is there a formula for calculating the best cache size?

    I found that the best idea is to let Firefox decide that itself.

  • HT4863 How can I increase the file size limit for outgoing mail. I need to send a file that is 50MB?

    How can I increase the file size limit for outgoing mail. I need to send a file that is 50MB?

    You can't change it, and I suspect few email providers would allow a file that big.  Consider uploading it to a service like Dropbox, then email the link allowing the recipient to download it.

  • Mailexample.sql how do you determine the file type?

    I'm using the mailexample.sql which explains how to use the demo_mail wrapper package for utl_smtp. There's a procedure for attaching text files and a procedure for attaching binary files. I've got binary files to attach to email successfully.
    How can I determine the file type so that I can use the attach_text procedure when attaching text files rather than the procedure for attaching binary files?

    Watch out! I think there is a bug in that code :-
    bug with PL/SQL Sample - maildemo.sql
    To answer your question - the usual way of determining a file type is to look for 'magic numbers' in the file that indicate its type. For example, Windows exe files often (always?) begin with the two letters 'MZ'. Zip files begin with 'PK'; Rar archives begin with 'Rar!'. Text files can begin with anything, and do not have any characteristic marker, but USASCII7 (which is what the format that routine is designed for - I think), is a characterset that only uses the first 7 bits of the byte. You could read the file, and if you find any bytes > 127, then you know it is not a USASCII7 file. I have seen various programs that 'sample' the first 64 or 256 bytes of a file instead of reading the whole file, and they usually get it right.
    Hope this helps.

    This may be a basic question... but in InDesign, how does one determine the pixel size of a text box? Specifically, we need to write text to specifications of 600 pixel width, and have no idea a) how to scale a text box to specific pixel width, b) how to determine what word count we can fit in, and c) how to do it in a table? Thanks!

    Set your ruler increments to pixels Preferences>Units & Increments. You can fill the text box with placeholder text Type>Fill with Placeholder text and get a word count from the Info panel with Show Options turned on from the flyout.
    From the Transform panel you can set a text box's width and height

  • How do i reduce the file size on a pdf document?

    How do i reduce the file size on a pdf document?

    The only way to reduce the size is by editing the original document to reduce its size and then converting again to PDF.

  • How do I redice the file size?

    Hi:
    I'm using Pages 1.0.2 for the first time. I created a nice 2-page file with the intention of emailing such a file on a monthly basis.
    Unfortunately, the finished file is HUGE (15MB), making it impossible to email.
    I tried Export > HTML format. Surprisingly, when I open the new Safari HTML page, alignment hasn't been preserved. Images are all over the place.
    Is Pages an applicable app with which I can email its finished files?
    If so, how can I shrink the file size substantially?
    If not, what optional apps are as stunning as Pages but aren't humungous?
    TIA,
    Warren

    Warren,
    Pages isn't the application you want to use to create HTML, despite its marketing by Apple. You've already bumped into its limitation -- it often scrambles formatting.
    But you can easily save your document as a PDF file, and reduce its size at the same time. Click on File > Print, then in the Copies & Pages menu, select Colorsync. In the Quartz Filter menu, select Reduce File Size.
    Another thing to consider before you've even gotten this far: since you're emailing this file, it's not necessary to have high-resolution images. Oftentimes, that, more than anything else, will bloat a file. So you might want to use an image-editing app to decrease the resolution of your images.

  • When I import my Sony video, which is in m2ts format, the file size is a few times larger.  This affects the volume of clips for creating the blu-ray or DVD discs.  How can I squeeze the file size without sacrificing the quality of output?

    Thanks.  I do not have the experience on burning discs from iMovie for the movie after editing (ie for video discs players).  It seems that i cannot find the relevant command in the tool bar for this purpsoe.  Would you please show me the way?
    The command is gone because iDVD has been discontinued by Apple. After Apple discontinued iDVD they removed the iDVD burning link from iMovie. I still use iDVD sometimes, only because I have an old copy.

    You have mentioned about Handbrake as a converter.  What is the RF no.

Again, what is the best rate?  Furthermore, which format is more suitable or the best: H264 or mpeg 2/4?
    I don't know what RF means. When I have used HandBrake, I've used presets that apply to what I want to do, so I don't know the meaning of each individual setting. However, it appears that many of them are listed in the HandBrake User's Guide that is linked from the Help menu in the program:

    Photoshop is not amateur-level software, and although it can edit a video, it cannot burn a DVD. Unfortunately, because I still use iMovie, I haven't tried anything else. You might want to read the reviews of various DVD-burning applications in the Mac App Store.
    And maybe another forum member will jump in and help us here!

  • How can i find the file size before downloading

    I am trying to decide if I want to download a tv show [Doctor Who] in standard definition or high definition.  How can I see the file size before I purchase the show from iTunes?

    1. That's only getting the file size of the Preview.
    2. Click on a photo to select it. Then click on the info button. You can get the dimensions and the file size in the top of the pane
    Note that the final size of any image will depend on the export settings you choose.

  • Error Message Said to Use Dual-Layer Disc - How Can I Know the File Size?

    This is my first attempt at using iMovie. I used slides, added a music and speaking track over it.
    I would like to reduce the size to a standard DVD rather than using expensive dual-layer discs. How do I determine the size?
    My Mac is only 80 GB, is that a problem?
    Thanks,
    Carlos Marques

    It seems as if perhaps you've clicked, in iMovie, on 'File' and 'Burn Project to Disc...' instead of Exporting to iDVD.
    When you Export to iDVD, your project ought to easily fit on a DVD.
    But if you've chosen 'Burn Project to Disc...' that doesn't make a playable DVD ..it creates a backup data disc, and, as Fred suggests, if you're using large or detailed photos, that may need a lot of space ..much more than when using iDVD to make a playable video disc.
    (..iDVD compresses everything so that anything up to one or two hours' worth will fit on a 4.7GB DVD, as Fred described. Burning a Project to a disc just copies all the data that's in your iMovie project without compressing anything; without converting hi-resolution photos to the low resolution of a movie. That may be why it's suggesting that you need a Dual-Layer disc if you did choose 'Burn Project to Disc...' by mistake..)

  • How can I reduce the file size of 3 videos?...

    ...without losing quality? These three videos are as follows in terms of size and length of the video:
    1) 148MB 19minutes
    2) 357MB 18minutes
    3) 164MB 14minutes
    I tried using a video converter to reduce the bit rate in order to reduce the size, which i know affects the quality, but that did not actually work to reduce the file size this time.
    I thought perhaps i should ask my forum friends for help on this matter. How,if at all, can I get all three of these MOV's under 100mb or to a total of 300mb for all 3 and preserve quality? It has to be able to play on an ipad (MOV or MP4). Thanks for your help!

    I think that the point that David was trying to make is that reducing the amount of information originally provided by a product or part of it in order to make it smaller will inevitably reduce the efficiency of the product itself.
    However, you don't have access to the original masters? Then you might be after a good compromise, meaning a video that can display decent quality while playing at its original frame size (say on the web).
    Does this mean that there is no real way to reduce the size without losing quality?
    If your target is the web there is a way to reduce the file size and still make it look decent enough. Re-compression means loss of source information but video compression is an art on its own and can produce some amazing results!
    Not without testing though.
    Now back to my previous post, use Compressor to try to reduce the file size and compare the result quality. Trust your eyes and be honest with yourself.

  • How do I reduce the file size of a pdf to email?

    I have a 260 MB pdf file generated from Photoshop 6.  I can't seem to reduce the size in Photoshop.  Is there anyway to reduce the pdf outside of Photoshop?  Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi Scott,
    That's a pretty big PDF! You'll have to reduce it pretty dramatically to attach it to an email. But, you can use Acrobat to reduce the file size. Please see this video for pointers: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-to-compress-a-pdf-file
    If you don't have Acrobat, you can try it for free for 30 days. For more information, see www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.
    Best,
