If it's 2 meg - why only 422kb photos???

This may be a really stupid question, but if it's supposed to be a 2 mp camera, why are the photos not 2 mb? Took photos last night and pulling them right off the phone, they are just 422kb?

2 mp = 2 mega pixels
422 kb = 422 kilo bytes
You're comparing apples and oranges. The size of a picture file depends on how many bits each pixel contains and how much the picture is compressed (jpeg). For example, my 8 mp digital camera gives 2 MB picture files.

  • Can someone explain to me why iTunes will only sync photos ONE WAY from my PC to my iPhone, and not vice versa?

    I have photos on my iPhone and want to put them on my PC.  Should be straightforward, right?
    So I go ahead and install iTunes, and plug in my phone, and sure enough iTunes tells me I've got 1610 photoes on my iPhone.  It won't let me actually SEE them, of course.  Fine (no, not really fine).  So I create a blank folder on my PC and proceed to do a sync.  My options are to (a) Sync FROM "My Pictures" to the phone, or (b) choose another and sync FROM my PC TO the phone. 
    Where is the option to sync FROM my phone TO my PC????
    It boggles my mind that I have to go outside of iTunes and use Windows Explorer to copy the photos from the phone to the computer.  So I go to "My Computer" and within the iphone Internal Storage there is only a DCIM folder and two sub-folders.  There are only 800 photos there!  Where are the other ones?
    Evidently what I can see from Windows Explorer is ONLY the pictures I took with the phone itself, and NOT the pictures I saved from email attachments or instant messages!  Why? Where are they and how can I access them???
    SO far, the closest thing I have been able to find is to have to buy a third party App like "Simple Transfer" to do this.  Is this really the case?  Or am I missing something?

    Photo sync is only one way, computer to iPhone.
    To get pictures from the iPhone to the computer, copy them to the computer as you would with any other device.
    Pictures saved from emails or instant messages (if done on the device) are in the camera roll.
    Pictures previously synced to the device from a computer are not available to be copied off the device.  They should already be on a computer.

  • HT204150 im not sure why only a few of my contacts have been synced and not everyone? How do i sync all contacts from my iphone to my ipad? I have synced my phone with Itunes on my laptop.

    It's a good idea to backup your Mac Address Book application and iCal Calendars application from each application. This way you can go back and pull out items if you lose something. I do this everyday.

  • Why is the photo only black in Edit mode with iPhoto 11?

    Why is the photo only Black in Edit mode?
    Everything works fine, except when I try to edit a photo, it shows as only Black.
    I have tried every fix talked about on this forum, and some others - nothing fixes it.
    Is this a Feature ? or is it a bug that no one is interesteed in fixing? It doesn't fill me with confidence in Apple when I see such random little glitches remaining unfixed.

    Is it the same for newly created slideshows?  Although a long shot give this a try:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    If the above fails as a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
    If it doesn't then the following my be your next step:
    Starting over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1. Open the library package like this.
    2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
    This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

  • Why only 5gb space if owning more than one device?

    I own 3 iphones and 2 ipads. Why only 5gb icloud space? I feel a bit ripped off here!
    Each of these products should come with its own 5gb space.
    5 gb. Is only enough for backup of one device!
    Sure you can get 5gb space for each product if you create account for each product and then having to pay for apps for each product. Its a total ripoff:(
    Change this please.
    Forcing me to in some way pay 50 bucks extra a year for security backup space is not fair in any way. I would actually pay for extra space for pictures etc. If i did not feel that apple were trying to take even more money from my wallet:/

    -Use a separated Apple ID for each iPhone for iCloud, iMessage and FaceTime.
    -Use the current one for iTunes and App Stores. (This way you will pay ones for each app).
    -Export your Camera Roll to a Computer just like you do with a Digital Camera Card. (This way you will save space from iCloud and from devices.
    -Use one of these 3 account to sync your iPads with the account you want or make a 4th or 5th account if you don't want to sync iCloud data with one of you iPhones.
    Remind that you can add more than one iCloud account (secondary account) if you want to sync some data from iCloud. (For example you can sync your iPhone Contacts in your iPad even if you are using another iCloud account (primary) in this iPad).
    Also you can share a calendar between devices that using a different iCloud account.

  • Can anyone explain to me why some of my photos are landing in events and others are appearing only in photo stream?

    I want to delete photos from camera roll on my iPhone to clear space to install ios7 but after importing photos to iPhoto on my macbook pro only 4 out of 339 photos taken in September landed in events, though all 339 are in Sept photo stream. It seems like on previous uploads all photos "fell" into events according to the day they were taken, as well as into photostream. I want to make sure these photos stick around permanently and do not exist only in photo stream where I imagine they will eventually be bumped from my computer (photostream). Can anyone explain why some of my photos are landing in events and others are appearing only in photo stream?

    You have uploaded two different things - pHotos are in one and only one event - if you have the same photo in two different events then you have imported it twice
    Please explain what you want - your initial question and yoru current comments are 180 degrees apart
    You say they are not all in events
    Can anyone explain to me why some of my photos are landing in events and others are appearing only in photo stream?
    Now you say they are
    All 15 pics appear in  Sept 2013 PS
    It sound to me like you have no problem except you imported some photos twice adn you may not understand how the automatic import form PS works - but that is not clear
    you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, to select Photo Stream > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture.
    The event they are imported into is MMMM YYYY PS
    If you import via iTunes sync or by connecting your IOS device via USB then they are importeed into the regular event structrue as defined in your iphoto preferences - and if you imoport via two or more different methods you will ahe duplicates

  • Why only my recent photos transferred from my icloud to my pc.

    JUST SET UP ICLOUD. ONLY MY MOST RECENT PHOTOS DOWNLOADED FROM MY ICLOUD TO MY PC. WHY DID NOT ALL MY OLDER PHOTOS DOWNLOAD? HOW CAN I PHYSICALLY DOWNLOAD THEM. THANK YOU FOR ANYONE WHO CAN HELP....

    Hello DIEPEVEEN860,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with Photo Stream.  It sounds like you just set it up on your computer and are only seeing the most recent pictures. 
    Photo Stream only stores photos from the last 30 days on the server, so when you set it up on a new device, you will only see pictures from the last 30 days:
    I see different photos in My Photo Stream on each of my devices.
    Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they are older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so all devices may not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream.

  • Why only for me my webpage is little bit broken?

    Why only for me my webpage is little bit broken not showing correctly? With other browsers is OK, but then i using Firefox 4+ version it's little bit broken, my friends using same browser like me, but for they website looking good. Please help me, because i don't like use old firefox versions :/
    You can see how for me it look's: http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/8585/unledal.jpg At normally the text from panel's should little bit exposed from panel.

    Fix your coding so your web pages are displayed in "standards mode" rather then the "quirks mode". The problem with the quirks mode is that it forces Firefox to guess your intentions about how something is to be displayed, when your friends view that page Firefox guesses right, but for you Firefox is guessing wrong. Eliminate the "guess" factor and Firefox should display your web page the same for all users. <br />
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quirks_Mode
    Plus, once you fix the code, maybe you can get rid of that NO IE logo that appears when someone uses IE to view that page. Times are changing, IE 8 and even more so IE9, can display web pages almost as good as Firefox, Opera, and Chrome, and if not the web page is more than likely at fault.

  • Why only once for create recovery media???

    When I created recovery discs for my laptop using HP Recovery Manager, I got the message:
      You can only create recovery media once for your system. So ensure that you keep it in a safe place
    why only once?? what is the problem with creating the same discs again?
    what is the difference when creating the recovery discs with the Backup and Restore utils in Windows 7? is it also once only? what is the difference between discs created with Windows 7 versus HP Recovery Manager?

    I believe it is due to MS license agreement that only 1 set is allowed. You can of course use a CD/DVD burning program to copy the set you made.
    The Recovery set you burn restores the laptop back to factory shipped state. Recovery made with Win 7 utility is an image of the hdd that includes added programs, data ,photos,etc.You also need to burn the System repair disc to use with the backup. You can use it as often as you like.

  • Why do only some photos appear in iCloud folder on my PC and not all taken on iPhone appear on iPad either? All settings seem correct and new photos now seem to be appearing on all devices, but not all older or recent photos

    Why do only some photos appear in iCloud folder on my PC and not all taken on iPhone appear on iPad either? All settings seem correct and new photos now seem to be appearing on all devices, but not all older or recent photos, even if taken at same time. All advice greatly appreciated.

    First, to access documents you must use an app designed for that specific Document type. So Pages will not be able to open PDFs. The Documents app by Readdle can handle PDFs though. In the latter case, you'd open the app, click the menu icon at its top left, and click Open to go to your iCloud Drive. With Pages, if you had files outside the main Pages folder, click + then iCloud and navigate to the file's location.

  • HT200109 Why only sometimes does movies on Apple Tv show the buy option, I need it there all the time?

    Why only sometimes does movies on Apple Tv show the buy option, I need it there all the time?

    Two reasons:
    The movie companies control what Apple can sell/rent - sometimes they simply change it to purchase only or rental only.
    Secondly, if your Settings for Itunes store are set to HD sometimes you won't see an option to purchase or even teh movie at all if it's only available in SD.
    There are also sometimes discrepancies between iTunes on computer and AppleTV implying the stores work slightly differently or have different connections.  Check if it's available in iTunes.

  • Why only receiver cc need to create manually after transportation?

    Hi Friends,
    I heard that when objects are moved from one environment to other environment the receiver Communication channel need to be created manually again. My question is why only receiver cc, why not sender cc?
    Regards,
    Suresh.

    Suresh,
    When transporting objects in the Integration Directory, some fields are indeed cleared. However, this is both in sender and receiver communication channels.
    The fields that are cleared are field that contain environment-specific data, such as hostnames, URLs etc.
    Kind regards,

  • Why only +String concatation for Operator Overloading ?

    Java does not support operator overloading other than the + operator for addition of two Strings or a number and a String.Why only the + operator and Strings, even when we have a concat() for addition of Strings ?
    Wondering if anyone could provide me some link as to why this only this (+) operator was chosen.
    Thank you for your consideration.

I assume the + was implemented (even with the concat() method present) for simplicity with working with Strings. Why only +? What other operators make sense as String manipulation operators? Why are they useful?We already have String,StringBuilder,StringBuffer for simplicity and manipulations of Strings or may be they were added later,but even then we have this +.Right, and you can use those methods instead of +. But String is a much-used class, has several special attributes given to it, and the + is very self-explanatory when applied to Strings.
    Also would == qualify as the other operator for operator overloading in java ?== has no special meaning for Strings (or really for Objects at all). It has exactly one purpose, to compare the value of the operands provided. When the operands are primitives, it compares their values exactly as you or I would (if the primitive values are equal you get true). When the operands are reference types the value of the references are tested for equality (if they don't hold a reference to the same Object, then == returns false).
