Im Thinking About Migrating to QuickBooks Online, But My Files Too Big!

Thinking about migrating from QuickBooks desktop to QuickBooks Online Edition? What if your file is too big? There is a way around this obstacle, but first, a little background. It used to be that if your QuickBooks file was bigger than 200MB, it wouldn’t migrate to QuickBooks Online…too big. You’d get an error when you… Continue reading →

Well, a couple of thoughts:
1. In CS3 if you have your photos converted to DNG format [and I think you can convert TIFFs] then ACR 4 that is included as a plug in when you installed CS3 [I hope I have the terminology right here, I do lots of things rote from previous experience and sometimes my directions are off] will open and DNG file [that I am sure of]. Then you can resize using the ACR controls. You can open multiple files and operate on them all at once.
2. I think you can do this in CS3 directly as well since you can operate on multiple files there as well. The problem you will have is available ram. If you start opening 30 MB files [lots of them] you will bog down pretty fast.
3. I think this discussion has got beyond the bounds of LR and I am willing to continue the discussion off line at [email protected]

  • Since my G5 died I was thinking about getting a Mac Mini, but I have a ViewSonic Monitor (from 2004) and a USB keyboard and mouse - I also have the external drive tha downloaded my files on to. Do you think the monitor, keyboard and mouse will work on it?

    Since my G5 died I was thinking about getting a Mac Mini, but I have a ViewSonic Monitor (from 2004) and a USB keyboard and mouse - I also have the external drive that I downloaded my files on to. Do you think the monitor, keyboard and mouse will work on it? Would I have to get a hub so I could use the stuff I already have? Is that viewsonic too old to work on it?
    What else would I need? Please advise...

    Yes for keyboard and mouse.
    The monitor will work if it has an HDMI, VGA ir DVI input. If it only has a VGA input you will need this adopter

  • I am so confused. I am thinking about buying an iPhone 4S but I want to use those card things that you can put the code in for the phone is this possible? I'm not talking about the 50$ unlimited card just the regular 20$ cards that hold mins and texts...

I'm not talking about the 50$ unlimited card just the regular 20$ cards that hold mins and texts... As long as it has the support for the service it's hooked up to?

    As far as I know there is no US cell carrier that allows pay as you go with an iPhone. You can purchase an unlocked iPhone 4S at an Apple Store and try it with a non-supported carrier.

  • Making a interactive PDF from indesign, but it's too big. Tried to reduce file size in Acrobat, but

    Making a interactive PDF from indesign, but it's too big. Tried to reduce file size in Acrobat, but it does not reduce file size.

    Use the Optimize PDF command in Acrobat, it gives you more control. I think it's under the Advanced menu in Acrobat 9 Pro and File > Save As > Optimized PDF in Acrobat X Pro.
    You might try playing around with different settings. You can also click the Audit Space button at the upper right to see if its from images or other things causing the file size problem.
    Unfortunately, InDesign doesn't write interactivity in a very optimized way. You get better results with buttons, for example, creating them in Acrobat Pro and using the Duplicate command to duplicate them across multiple pages.

  • Thinking about upgrades to new quantum but..still have eSata

    Hi.
    I'm thinking about upgrading to the new quantum boxes but I curently have about 20 shows on an external eSata that I just setup earlier this year.   I know theres no good way to pull off the shows but was wondering if theres any way to stop recording on the external and dwindle the shows off.
    any thougths are appreciated.
    Thx
    shaun

    My fisrt thought is to say to disconnect the esata drive unless you watch something.
    But then items will be recorded to the local drive that won't transfer either.
    So you either have to watch it all, or lose something when you migrate over.

  • I'm thinking about buying the new Macbook but I have a few questions.

    Alright, so I've never owned any kind of Mac computer, ever. I'm seriously thinking about switching to Mac, and buying the new Aluminum Macbook.
    I'm going to start school in the fall of 09 for Music Production.
    I know that Mac's are good for Video editing and etc...but are they good for Music Production?
    Would you guys recommend that I buy the new Macbook?
    How is the new trackpad? Is it easy to get use to?
    Can I still use a Mouse with the new Macbooks?
    I have yet to see anyone use a Mouse with their new Mac.
    Your help would be greatly appreciated!

    Good. Work hard and save up. Your buying window has yet to open.
    I know that Mac's are good for Video editing and etc...but are they good for Music Production?
    State-of-the-art. Period.
    Would you guys recommend that I buy the new Macbook?
    Not yet. The product line, yes. But wait until late spring, when you'll be targeted by Apple directly. By then the MacBook line oughta be completely refreshed. Everybody is waiting for a Unibody successor to [_*this model.*_|http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/17-inch> Chances are, if you're pockets aren't that deep, you could buy the current model at whatever point it becomes discounted. That decision won't come till Spring.
    Simply put, if your dream is capturing that once-in-a-lifetime session or live performance from that great new artist you're producing, you want some screen space to run the hi-end software on the road. And so you will not need a desktop Mac for audio. The MacBook Pro does that job with plenty of power to spare. If you're a sound designer/composer, you need more processing power. Same for HD video or animation (like Pixar). So those folks need the desktop machine with the multi-core processing. Zoom!
    But you can still plug in an external display when you're in workstation mode on the MacBook.
    You'll also need to get good mics and a FireWire "mixer" to outfit yourself fully and go record. So save now!
    How is the new trackpad? Is it easy to get used to?
    Pretty much. Go to your nearby Apple Store and check it out.
    Can I still use a Mouse with the new Macbooks?
    Sure! Only one question: Wired or not?
    I have yet to see anyone use a Mouse with their new Mac.
    LOL! We have a copy of the "free limited edition" MacWorld New York 2000 Pro Mouse (1-button!) that hooks up to our MB AL in workstation mode. I'll have to record some video of it now . . .
    Your help would be greatly appreciated!
    -Thanks
    More to come. Save now, study and work hard. Don't get too excited too soon! You'll be glad you did.

  • I need to downsize phots to publish on a website but they are too big . In help it says when I select a photo it gives me the option to downsize. It does NOT. ?

    I can't figure out how to downsize my photos for a website that won't take anything above 3MB my Photos are 4MB. Even when I send them in an email, they are too big to send more than 3 at a time and I don't know how to fix it! Help says that when I select a photo it gives me the option to downsize. It does NOT?????

    This is the iPhoto for iOS forum. Are you asking about iPhoto on your Mac?
    In iPhoto on your Mac select Export and you will have the option to select a size for your photo.
    In iPhoto for iOS this capability is not there. I use PhotoForege2 on my iPad to resize my photos to meet the requirements you describe.

  • Finished my composition but it's too big, I need to scale to a fixed height and width - help?

    Hi everyone,
    This is quite urgent - I've finished my project in Edge Animate, but it is too large and needs to be scaled down. I tried to place it in a separate DIV element in the HTML and scale it down with the CSS but this doesn't work.
    I want to scale it from the 1024px wide it currently is down to a fixed width of 800px. Can anyone help me do this? All of the tutorials I have found are to do with making the composition responsive to the user resizing the browser, and this isn't what I need at the moment.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    Can you explain a bit further what you need this for? Are you just trying to center the Stage on your page?
    Asking because when writing out this script I ran into some weird browser issues setting the transform origin to the center (IE and FF IIRC). You can give it a shot though by changing the transform origin in the code to:
    “transform-origin”:”50% 0″, (for all prefixed instances)
    Not guaranteeing results, but you can try

  • Thinking about moving to X1 platform, but have many questions.

    So, for the last two months, I have been getting emails offering me a free "upgrade" to the X1 platform.  My current setup:3 Tivo DVR's - two 4 tuner and one 2 tuner  Mainly use one of the 4 tuner boxes and the 2 tunerStandard def cable box that is not connected, 105Mbit Internet, Xfinity Voice The Tivo's work real good, but are costly at nearly $60/month for their service Plus the 9.99 cable card fee each. My questions on X1 If I were to go to a single X1 DVR, and two X1 "Terminal Boxes" (That's what the local xfinity store called them), What do the terminal boxes use from the main DVR?  To clarify, If the DVR is recording 4 channels I was told it could view one other.  In a situation like that what could the Terminal boxes view at that time?  Could they only see one of the 5 channels (the four recorded ones or the live one) or could they stream something else that was recorded earlier?  Could they stream on demand content or streampix content?   The local xfinity store said I could only have 1 X1 DVR in my household, but from what I've been reading here, several people seem to have two, so was the rep at the local store wrong? Thank you in advance for any answers or recommendations.   Rick  

    The situation in regards to available tuners and recordings is changing rapidly. X1 DVRs just activated the 6th tuner and they placed a priority on recording over live TV. So at the moment you can record 6 programs as long your are watching one of the 6 recordings.
    There are two X1 Companion boxes. The Xi3 is the more desireable Companion box but it does "steal" a tuner from the X1 DVR in order to watch live TV. Please study the comparison because it will answer your questions: http://customer.xfinity.com/help-and-support/cable-tv/x1-hub-vs-companion-box/
    Multiple DVRs are allowed in most markets but some still don't. I have three but I had to pull strings. Please be aware that multiple X1 DVRs are not independent. They pool their resources. You cannot "hide" the recording list on one DVR from the other X1. You can prevent the actual playback but all X1 boxes in the house will see the record list on all DVRs.
    Pricing aside, most people would agree that TiVo is a vastly superior DVR to the X1 DVR. The X1 DVRs have an almost appalling lack of basic features and flexibility. They have almost no adjustments over guide views. Ability to customize favorites is extremely limited and inflexible.
    I would STRONGLY recommend that you spend more time reading in this forum. I also think that you should go to a Comcast location (or a friends house) and test X1 before you order.

  • Thinking about migrating from BPC MS 7.0 to BPC NW 7.0 or 7.5

    Has anyone gone through a migration from the MS 7.0 platform to the NW 7.0 platform?  If so, what were the biggest challenges that you came across?  Do you see any benefits from doing this?

    Matt -
    Migration to BPC NW is not straight forward and here are few areas of concern:-
    1. Complete re-write of SSIS to SAP Process Chains
    2. Re-visit (almost a re-write) your Script Logic
    3. Fix Reprots/Input Schedules
    4. Post Migration:
        a) Migration doesn't take time and goes well in weekend window (say 10-12 hrs..even less)
        b) Post migration validation process takes a long period (depending on how much functionality you have rolled-out in BPC MS)
    5. Security, which is different in BPC
    6. Case-sensitivy is another thing to consider (tool will take care of it)..still need to validate
    Hope this gives you some idea.
    Cheers!

  • I am having trouble with my almost 4 yr old iMac (version 10.6.8) and am thinking about getting a "new" Mac but I like my 21" screen.

    Would it be  possible to hook up a Mac Mini or laptop to my iMac's screen?  Thanks.

    Have you reset the SMC?
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord.
    Wait fifteen seconds.
    Attach the computer's power cord.
    Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    While you're at it, resetting the PRAM won't hurt anything and 'might' help is SMC reset didn't work (PRAM does some port control):
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    Something else you might try .... you don't say how you're updating to 10.6.8, however, if you're using Software Update, you might try downloading the 10.6.8 combo update, which contains all updates to 10.6. Sometimes, Software Update doesn't work quite right, and installing the combo update fixes that. Download the update from Apple's download site at http://support.apple.com/downloads/ , using Disk Utility repair permissions, apply the combo update, then repair permissions again.

  • Trying to attach Excel file to my email...but it is too big...how do I fix?

    I am trying to attach two excel files to an email, and each time it goes as follows:
    1. push the attach file button
    2. chose my files
    3. push the attach files button
    4. the blue "progress" stripe begins to fill the address bar
    5. Then it stops about an eighth of the way toward the end, and doesnt go any further...
    I tried letting it go for a while, and giving it time, but it doesnt work. The file size is 34.4 (which I know is huge), but there is only about 20 lines of the Excel being used, but the program is trying to attach 64,599 lines of unused space, and that is why it isnt attaching im sure, but i dont know how to fix it, or if it is even possible.
    Please help!

    what email provider do you use?
    i'd be surprised anyway if it will allow an attachment of that size. the limit is usuall between 1 and 5 MB, some going to 10 or 15 like gmail.
    34MB? not unless you have an expensive or corporate email provider.
    you can:
    1: do like daddypaycheck said and reduce the file size by deleting unnecessary rows or collumns,
    2: download OpenOffice.org, or NeoOffice, see if you like that and save it in the native format, usuall smaller file (beware compatibility)
    3: use dropstuff or the like to break the file apart into multiple smaller compressed chunks, and send them in multiple emails (the size of the chunks each should match the attachment size limit for your email provider, see their website)
    4:this is my favorite - put the file in your Sites folder, in your user's Home folder. open system prefs-> sharing. check the box to enable personal web sharing. go to www.whatismyip.org and copy the string of numbers that appear (that's your external ip). now you can host the file from your computer, and only email people a link to it! the link should be like this:
    http://yourip/~your_short_username/name_of_exceldocument.xls
    for example, here is my resume in .pdf, hosted from my computer (let me know if it works for you!)
    http://67.40.250.86/~Willeyeam/images/WBLResume.pdf
    Bam! I'd go with number 4, and test the url in your browser to make sure it works. once you get the page, you can "save as" and download the file. that way people can receive an email with only text, including the url (link) to the hosted file on your computer. then they can "save as" and download the file.
    another, more sophisticated way to do this is to write a small .html page that has a link to that file (in your sites folder). name the .html file "index.html" and replace the file by that name which is by default placed in your Sites folder. that will then be your home page at:
    http://yourip/~your_shortusername/
    Rock on!

  • I've exported my pages graphics document as a PDF file and can't seem to reduce the file size without compromising the quality of the photo's used even after choosing "best" quality.  I'm trying to send the file via e-mail but it's too big.  ??????

    I am trying to e-mail a graphics pages document I made as a PDF file.  After trying to resize the file, the photo's quality is compromised (really blurry) even after choosing "Best" quality.  What am I doing wrong.  As a regular full sized file (PDF) it's fine, but when it gets reduced, it's bad and it needs to get printed from the e-mail copy I'm trying to send.  HELP! Please.

    If there are a lot and/or large images the file will inevitably be large, no matter what.
    You can reduce them down as far as possible by cropping and scaling them to the final size before creating the pdf. You can do this by opening the images in Preview .app and using Menu > Tools to reduce the resolution and to crop.
    If you have used transparency effects eg shadow, reflection, transparency, 3D charts, OSX will by default render these at 72dpi in the pdf.

  • Got High resolution Monitor but everytning​s too big

    I just got a bigger monitor with higher resolution.  For some reason, the block diagrams are screwed up.  It seems like everything got bigger!  What's the deal, and how do I fix it?

    Go to the windows control for Display properties and select font size=normal.
    You can also change the default diagram font for new VIs in LabVIEW, but it won't affect existing VIs. You would need to e.g. select all objects on the diagram and press "ctrl-" (control+minus) a few times to make the current fonts all smaller manually. I don't recommend this though.

  • Export photo but size is too big and magnified for uploading to web

    Hi
    I have tried to export a photo from IPhoto using Export function, selecting small then exporting to Desktop.  When I tried to upload to the web, the picture is very large and takes up the whole screen.  Even if i demagnify the picture before saving it, it is still very big.  I have tried to crop but this does not help.
    Please can you advise a quick and simple way to make pictures smaller visually.  (When I used Window, I used Paint which did the job).
    Thank you

    Thanks for the link.
    I'm not clear as far as size of file goes, and also to preview how it looks before exporting it.  I went to the File Export tab and should I wish to select "Size" then "Small", what size will that be on the screen? Or should I goto "Web Page", then if I goto "Image", I am sure what to reduce the 640 down to, but say if I half it, would that be a reasonable size on the screen/web page?
    I'm just trying to find a quick way to resize pictures for uploading to the web... but it's still a big vague to me.
