I Want to Increase Resolution to Make a Picture Perfect

Hello, and thank you.
I am trying to increase the resolution of a picture I found on the internet.  I want to know how to increase the resolution so that the Photoshopped version looks like gold compared to the original.  Can you help me get a high resolution of a picture?  Thank you. 
So far I've tried "Image," then "Resize," then "Image Size," and changed the Resolution to 300, but nothing in the picture changed.  Of "Scale Styles," "Constrain Proportions," and "Resample Image," the only one I have checked is "Constrain Proportions."  So I don't know what I am missing or overlooking or doing wrong.  But my changes have not produced any changes to the image.  Your help is appreciated.  Thank you.
Mike

It sounds like you are using Photoshop ELEMENTS not the full version of Photoshop.
The Photoshop Elements forum is at: Photoshop Elements
But the answer will be the same. Photos from the internet simply don't have enough pixel detail.
Photoshop (any version) can't create more detail out of thin air. It can resample and create more pixels exactly like the original pixels, but it can't magically create new unique pixels that will provide additional detail.
There is an expression:  GIGO - Garbage In, Garbage Out
You will never get something that "looks like gold compared to the original".
You're looking for something that never existed. Photoshop CSI edition/

  • I am using windows vista on a pc.  how do i use photoshop elements to increase resolution to 1920 on longest side without getting distortion

    using windows vista how to use photoshop elements to increase resolution to 1920 on the longest side without distortion?

    When I have the photo onscreen, the only options presented to me under File are Delete, Rename, Make copy, Copy and Properties.  It does not give Save as an option.  Not sure how to save for web.  When I go to Properties, it will not let me change the values at all.  I have tried free downloads for image resizing, but so far I have only found where they would allow me to enter lower pixel values, but not increase them.  For example, one image is now 960 pi/in X 640 pi/in.  I need to double the 960 to be 1920, and so I assume I need to also double the 640 to 1280.  But I have not found how to do that.  I am very inexperienced in any type of photoshopping, so I'm not terribly surprised to be running into problems, or even understanding what the problems are that I'm having.  Any other advice?

  • Increase resolution in iphoto

    How do I increase the resoluition of an image in Iphoto tp 300dpi?  or How do I see what size the image currently is?

    your image has no DPI until you display it or print it - DPI is Dots Per Inch - digital images have only dots - inches come for printing or displaying
    See <a href="http://www.rideau-info.com/photos/mythdpi.html"> The Myth of DPI for additional information.</a>
    As to increasing resolution - you can not make a photo better than it is when you take it - you can reduce relsoution but not increase it
    as to seeing the size select the photo in iPhoto and click on the info button to open the info window - it shows the size

    On 11in Macbook Air (10.10), how do I increase resolution of built-in display to 2560 by 1600 pixels?
    It can be accomplished when an external display is connected, so I expect it can be done without an external display.

    You're getting full native resolution 1366 x 768 on your internal display, nothing more.

  • A while back I made a gamecenter account that was not associated with an Apple ID, it was with my email, now my gamecenter account IS my Apple ID. I want to delete it and make a new one, but i can't figure out how. Help!

    A while back I made a gamecenter account that was not associated with an Apple ID, it was with my email, now my gamecenter account IS my Apple ID. I want to delete it and make a new one, but i can't figure out how. Help!

    Since you can't delete Apple IDs and having multiple Apple IDs can cause confusion, what you may want to do is rename your existing Apple ID to the new email (desired Apple ID).  That would in effect do what you want, get rid of the old and give you the new.

  • I am a new iPhone user. I'm a frequent technology user but not a sophisticated one.  I am looking for an app where I can make lists -- books, movie titles, etc.  And I want to be able to make individual folders.  But I do not need more than that. Help!

    I am a new iPhone user. I'm a frequent technology user but not a sophisticated one.  I am looking for an app where I can make lists -- books, movie titles, etc.  And I want to be able to make individual folders.  But I do not need much more capacity than that. Ideas?

    One of these may fit your needs: http://iphone.appstorm.net/roundups/productivity-roundups/25-fantastic-to-do-lis t-apps-for-iphone/
    What do you mean make folders? Like folders inside an application or accessing system folders? You can't do the latter.

  • HT1766 I lost my IPhone 4S this morning and want to increase my cloud storage so I can back it up when it finds a signal and then remotely erase it...I'm assuming the worst that whoever finds is will not callme or want to return the phone

    I lost my IPhone 4S this morning and want to increase my cloud storage so I can back it up when it finds a signal and then remotely erase it...I'm assuming the worst that whoever finds is will not call me or want to return the phone. I went to icloud but it only govers me options to increase storage from my iPhone or a synced computer (mac or PC).

    If the phone is offline there is no way to track it or send a message to it.  You can place it in lost mode to lock it and send it a message (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165), but this will not take place until the phone goes back online, if it ever does.  If it does, you will get an email informing you.

  • How can I increase resolution when saving file as PDF?

    I am sending some illustrated files to a professional printing press that only accepts PDFs, however they say the resolution is too low and should be 300dpi. How can I increase resolution? Only option I could find was to try to create a new filter in Color Sync by duplicating PDFX3 filter and editing it to the desired resolution, however I couldn't get new filter to save my resolution inputs. Any help is appreciated!

    You really need something like Acrobat which will install a "Save as Adobe PDF" under the PDF menu. You can select press quaility," "high quality print," etc., and get a true high res PDF.
    If you'd like to just give it a shot, try downloading one of the OS X CS6 suites that include Adobe Acrobat Pro for a free 30-day trial. I've never used SketchBook Pro, but Acrobat may help you out.

  • What's a good video app to use? I have iPhoto and iMovie, but they won't let me email a video. I also want to be able to make a dvd of my home movies. Any suggestions?

    What's a good video app to use? I have iPhoto and iMovie, but it these wont let me do certain things, such as email a video. I also want to be able to make a dvd of my home movies. Any suggestions?

    Unless you want a new computer, forget about AVCHD. It requires too much muscle to edit comfortably on anything but the fastest computer.
    What camera is nice, depends on your budget. Formats that are easy to edit are HDV, DVCProHD (P2) and XDCAM. In the consumer range you could look at the Canon HV40 or XH-A1s, in the prosumer range look at the Panasonic AG-HPX170, Canon XH-H1s, JVC GY-ND250 or Sony HVR Z5 or Z7 and all Sony XDCAM cameras, especially the EX1 and EX3. In the professional range look at the Sony PDW-F355 or upward.

  • Firefox won't open after update, black screen, beep and "do you want to allow program to make changes..."

    Updated Firefox yesterday and now the program will not open on my desktop. Screen goes black for a second, issues a beep and then get box asking if I want to allow Firefox to make changes to my computer. Does not matter if I click yes or no, box disapears and nothing happens. Willing to remove and reload the program but hate to lose all my bookmarks.

    '''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

  • Smartform : Main window : Want to increase the size of main window

    Dear Sir,
    In my smartform my Main window is fixed after four windows(2 + 2) but only in first page.
    Now my requirement is there in second page i am only showing two windows out of four and in new vaccent space produced by two window i wanted to increase the height of window equal to 2 window in second page onwards.
    Please guide.
    With Rgds,
    Nirav Parekh

    You just need to change the UPPER and HEIGHT values for the MAIN window on the second and subsequent pages.  Presumably, you have a different page definition for these pages?  If that's not your question, then please re-phrase it.
