HT2639 Is there any way in i Photo '11 to crop a photo in an irregular manner? (e.g., scanned newspaper columns of varying sizes and lengths)

I want to edit some scanned newspaper prints to include only the columns in which I am interested. Is there any way to crop the scanned photo in an irregular manner so as to include only the relevant section?

You can do it in iPhoto, if the crop you want is rectangular and not a standard format.
Do it in iPhoto, by choosing Edit > Crop > and unchecking the Constrain box.
You can also do it in Preview, by cropping to the desired size with the cross-hair that appears when you mouseover the image, and then selecting Crop from the Tools menu.
If you want to select several areas of a newspaper page - hiding areas you don't want - you can do it in Keynote.
Import your scanned image to Keynote, and create shapes to cover what you don't want.  You can blank out unwanted areas completely, or have them semi-opaque, so they remain visible without pulling the focus away from the areas you want to highlight.

  • Is there any way to transfer photos, music from my PC to my new iPad(3)?

    Is there any way to transfer photos, music, from my PC to my new iPad(3)?

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Is there any way to transfer photos from ipod touch (2nd generation

    Is there any way to transfer photos from ipod touch (2nd generation & OS is 4.2.1) to PC? I am struggling a lot. The OS cannot be upgradable beyond 4.2.1
    I am wondering if there could be many other ways to transfer the photos like:
    1. with the help of any android app
    2. ipod touch to iphone/ipod latest version
    3. any 3rd party free softwares (there are paid 3rd party softwares but I dont want to invest)
    I did try some of the options:
    1. I could emailed only 6 photos in one email (I have almost 800 photos and would be time consuming.
    2. I'm trying to access my google account on my ipod but it keeps coming up with "oops! your browser seems to have cookies disabled..." My cookies are not disabled. Safari is the only browser for ipod touch and could not be able to installed not only any new browser but also any iphone apps. Updates for the existing apps not possible at all. So this option of uploading the photos on google drive is ruled out.
    Anybody is there to help me out? Sorry for such a long inventory.
    Thank you!

    If they were synced to the iPod you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView

  • Is there any way to retrieve photos that were put in the trash can and then it was emptied?  Or is there a way to move photos from an imovie to iphoto?

    Is there any way to retrieve photos that were put in the trash can and then it was emptied?  Or is there a way to move photos from an imovie to iphoto?

    If you've emptied the trash, ehtn no. However if you have a backup, like Time Machine, or a recent backup copy of your photo library you could recover the photos from the trash.
    The answer to getting a snapshot form iMovie depends on what version you have.
    I should add it technically may be possible to recover the emptied trash, but if you really want to do that you would need to download a utility software that can attempt to recover deleted files. Do it soon before you start writing more data to that disk. At the moment I don't have a recommendation for such a program. Maybe someone else out there will offer suggestion.

    is there any way to retrieve photos from a 5c that has gone into recovery mode?

    No, by the time its in recovery mode it's too late. The contents of the phone are gone. Did enable any of the ways that Apple provides to back up photos?
    Backup the phone to your computer
    Automatic daily iPhone backup to iCloud
    enable Photo Stream
    Copy photos to your computer using a USB cable and a compatible photo management utility on your computer
    Enable Photo Sharing
    Enable Photo Library backup
    OR any of the 3rd party photo management solutions, such as Google Picasa, Google+, Facebook, Shutterfly?
    OR any of the cloud sharing services such as box.com or dropbox?
    If you have set up any one of these your photos can be retrieved from it.

  • My daughter's iPhone was stolen, is there any way to recover photos that were back-upped to iCloud?

    My daughter's iPhone was stolen. Is there any way to recover photos that she would have backed up to the Cloud? Note, we did not have photoshare running.

    Camera roll photos are included in the backup.  The backup includes:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)

  • I'd like to print an 8x12 and cut it in half to make two 4x12 panorama type pictures.  Is there any way to combine two pictures (each cropped to 4x12) into one frame so I can print out the 8x12 and trim it after printing?

    I'd like to print an 8x12 and cut it in half to make two 4x12 panorama type pictures.  Is there any way to combine two pictures (each cropped to 4x12) into one frame so I can print out the 8x12 and trim it after printing?

    To clarify, I want to be able to make a flie I can take to a photo printing place (not for my own printer) so they can print it and I crop it.  The place I used to print at used to print an 8"x12" for the same price as 8"x10" (now they may only do 8x10 and I would need to keep the ratio the same so it would be two 3.3"x10" pics on an 8x10").  Any help is veryappreciated!

  • Is there any way to prevent Aperture from Auto Cropping an image?

    Is there any way to prevent Aperture from auto cropping an image? I use the "Do Not Crop" aspect ratio often and Aperture constantly picks cropping aspects for me, which is driving me crazy. Can I set "Do Not Crop" as the ratio I want on a more permanent basis anyhow? Thanks for the help.
    Chris

    This is a current bug.  Please report it via "Aperture→Send Aperture Feedback".
    Just to clarify, the problem is not auto-cropping, the problem is the the crop tool aspect ratio is arbitrarily set (in my case, always to something close to the current crop aspect ratio).  You can reset it (on a per-crop basis) to "Do not constrain".
    It is very bothersome.
    You might try trashing your prefs.  Details on the Trouble-shooting page.  I have had the bug return more than once.
