IPhone photo default size / dimension is too big - Fix?

iPhone space is expensive
When we take a photo with the iPhone (3g and 4s-at least), it's approx 2MB (for a jpg)!
We can have more room in iPhone storage for more music, photos, etc...
My Windows-7 detects the phone and Windows-Explorer auto-opens; therefore, I can drill down into phone/files - only to the photos and simply drag-um-over. They're all huge!
Printing a 2MB pic is big enough to cover a whole bed-room wall.
We should be able to set this to: 1 MB, 512K, 256K
- or set defualt photo dimensions
New cameras are the same (even if JPG is selected)
With some cameras, users can set a default picture-size / or rather dimensions re: 4x4, 3x5 (or 10x8, 12x12, 12x14) and the like...
This results in tiny file size.
Note:
JPG is a deviation from MPG
MPG came first as MPEG (audio + video)
Motion Picture Experts Group (MPEG) developed so a surgeon in New York, can assist (video-conference) w/a operation in Los Angeles

So... is there a question in there at all? Fail to find a ??? in the multicolored text....
And if a piddly 5MP 4S is giving you hiccups, wait till you run across an 8MP i5!

I need to compress an InDesign file to web-quality pdf but file size is still too big. Help!

I need to compress an InDesign file to web-quality pdf but file size is still too big. Help!

Hi Bill,
It sounds like your document has a lot of pages and/or images in it.
Instead of using the normal InDesign > Export command to create a PDF, you may be able to reduce the file size by printing to a PostScript file, then distilling it to PDF using Acrobat Distiller.

Sending iphone Pictures in texts which are too big for some Smartphones

When sending pictures in texts there used to be an option of 3 different size formats. Small/Medium/Large. There is only one available now which is too big on some smartphones.
The HTC Wildfire has a restriction of 300kb and a text with picture I tried to send, could not be sent directly to the phone, instead it went to a web address to view. I also tried to share contact details with picture and the file was also too big. I also tried the first picture to another old Nokia without problem.
Can anyone tell me if this is a problem with the latest Apple Software? Will they be fixing it so that we can select the picture size again to allow for picture size restrictions so we can send smaller photos to actually share our pictures.
Anyone know?
Has anyone had the same problem?
Any answers welcome. Many thanks in advance. I hope they sort it quickly.

Thanks again Chris,
I've just tried to see if I could get any more info from the 3gs User Guide and also found some MMS Info on page 325.
It also has some info on adding Photos on page 333
If MMS isn't supported by your carrier, camera image doesn't appear and you can't send photos or videos ... This doesn't count in my case as 02 support this.
Send a Photo or Video: Tap Camera Image. Then tap 'take Photo or Video', or tap 'Choose Existing' and then select an item from a photo album and tap choose.
The size limit of attachments is determined by your carrier. If necessary, iphone may compress the photo or video.
Well this clearly doesn't work for the HTC but I'm still more inclined to think that perhaps the Apple updates have removed the size reduction options. The carrier (02) is able to take the MMS from me but the family member with the HTC who is using the 02 network through Tesco needs investigating why there is a limit to kb's.
I shall look into this and see what I can find out. Perhaps it's a combination of the Apple Software and the Carrier people are using which is causing the Picture problems.

Cannot receive photos via text messaging, says too big to receive

I can receive photos via blue tooth but when anybody sends photos via text it does not arrive or I am told that the image is too big.

Hi,
Thank you for posting the issue here and providing more information. I did some research on the carrier and this is what I found about sending a receiving messages.
Please call your service provider to find out if there are any limitations on attachment sized for your phone plan.
I tried looking up to verify how to manually set up email for the email app for your phone, but was not sure what model you had: please check here for troubleshooting info [http://www.vodafone.com.au/help/devices/ota-settings] if the email is already set up, please ignore.
This lists the networks that work best for sending and receiving pxt in mms overseas and email
[http://support.vodafone.com.au/articles/FAQ/Sending-PXT-to-overseas-numbers]
PXT®/MMS settings [http://support.vodafone.com.au/articles/FAQ/PXT-MMS-settings]
If this continues after any optimizing changes the service provider recommends:
*Are there download settings set in the email menu
*What is the size of the attachment when this happens?
*Is it a specific file type this consistently happens?
*what kind of email account does this happen with, and is it consistent for other emails as well? If so it may be the apn settings.
If you are unable to access the images from the account with Vodafone, it may be the following bugs that is affecting this.

*Does it happen with pdfs? [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=825318]
*Does is happen when there is no message?
*Does it happen when it is too large and is there a message? [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=949972]

Photo Size is WAY TOO BIG!

Once I synch a photo album I created specifically for the iphone I notice the file sizes bloat on the Iphone to literally almost 1mb per photo. I exported my photos using Picasa and resized the .jpg files so they are around 40kb per pic. This means with around 374 photos the disk size on my PC is 26MB. Once I synch using itunes to my iPhone 3g the photos now take up around 300mb on the iphone. This is totally nuts as it is inflating my pics by a ratio of almost 15 times.
I understand that itunes creates the Photo Cache folder after iTunes performs the photo optimization. I have performed some research and learned that some people think iTunes is actually converting .jpg file types to a raw .tif or .bmp type format so the iPhone (ipod or whatever as this happens on all devices) can quickly display the image and not have to use Processor power to unzip the compressed file types like.jpg.
I guess I can understand this but to me what a joke. This is really limiting the number of files I can dispaly on my iPhone and considering that the audio .mp3 format is compressed and the iPhone can handle real-time decompression of that format I think this is more of a bug or just plane old bad design.
I would like an answer from Apple on why this is done in this matter as I could store literally 15 times the pictures on my device but currently I'm getting robbed of my precious iPhone disk space.
If you have same issues as me let me know and maybe we can get some traction on this one. Thanks.

Part of the problem is that iTunes makes multiple copies of each photo in different sizes when you sync. This is to support zooming and rotating. This article:
http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/the-complete-guide-to-ipod-ph oto-pictures
has a lot of useful background info.
Alas, I think it means you won't get a solution. I guess Apple thought that with 8GB/16GB to play with, a few megabytes here and there wouldn't be such an issue

IPhone photo default format

Does anyone know how to make the iPhone default photo size 2 x 3 so you don't have to crop every photo before printing as 10cm x 15cm (normal print size on snapchat)? I find it very odd that the iPhone default sizing is different to the crop format in iPhoto that is called "2 x 3 (iPhone)". Am I missing something??

Have you tried this app?

IPhoto 6 photos in slideshow are displayed too big.

I'm using iPhoto 6. The slideshow displays the photos much bigger than in the photo editor (normal size). I want to have them displayed at normal size in slideshow and then adjust them with the size slider. How do I do that? Thanks!

Ok. after first panicking and not reading further on how to fix iphoto, i calmed down and did the reading i should have done first. Seems that holding down the option and command key at iphoto boot-up initiates a rebuild command.
I did a complete rebuild and all the photos are back in order. Not sure why this occurred but I'm happy that it was fixable.
Iphoto rules.

Font size of text too big on a mobile... why ?

Hello, I use Muse CC 2014.
I have the following problem:
When I create a wide text area, and I write a few lines of text, when I look at the result on a mobile device (with Chrome for example, on Samsung Galaxy S4), in landscape mode all goes well, but in portrait mode, the text size becomes BIGGER !
Therefore not possible to create a correct layout ...
How to make the text size remains the same in portrait or landscape mode on a mobile device?
Thank you very much
Robin Weber

znico,
I am also having this same problem and I have a thread on it here [Font size larger than it should be in mobile version]. It also happens on my S4 on Chrome. It has been an ongoing issue on the sites I design where I'll put the text box inside of a colored box for instance and in other devices the text fits inside the box but in Chrome/S4 the text extends beyond the box. I tried viewing it in Firefox for Android and the text seems to render as it should. I'm guessing it has something to do with the way the S4 or Chrome is rendering the text. I have not had the time to check but I'm also wondering if it has anything to do with fonts from TypeKit as opposed to web safe fonts. What font type are you using in your design?

Uploaded iOS 4, now Iphone fonts are too big

Imported pictures are HUGE. Way too big. How do I reduce JPEG size?

JPEG size imports WAY TOO BIG. How do I reduce JPEG size? Thanks so much@!!

Set your camera to take lower quality pictures is the obvious answer here. You can reduce the size of image already in iPhoto when exporting them.

Terminal.app won't return window to default size with open tab

I regularly have multiple Terminal.app windows open with multiple tabs open in them. If I have a window open with no tabs, I can drag scale the window to whatever size is convenient for me at the moment, then use the Window > Return to Default Size function to make it go back to my default size configured in the app preferences.
The problem comes when I have a window open that is already scaled to a different size and I open a tab. This resets the default size to whatever size the window was when the tab was opened. The result is that if I use the Window > Return to Default Size function, it does nothing, unless the window has been scaled again, then it resets the window size to what it was when the tab was opened, not the default size configured in my preferences.
Is this a feature, or a bug? Is there a way I can make it retain the default size dimensions even when I've opened a tab?

I would solve the problem by resizing after closing the added tab. However, your inquiry is really beyond my abilities. Questions do get answered in these forums; sometimes not, in which case resorting to Apple Support _may_ resolve the issue. Have you checked out posting under "Mac OS X Technologies"? I believe there are Unix sections to that forum. Good luck.

Why does is say purchaseable items too big for download every time I try to download an app?

Every time I try to download a game or app my iPhone says error message purchasable items too big for download. I even changed my billon information. Anyone know what the problem might be?

Connect your iPad to iTunes on your Mac/PC and then go to your iPad's summary window. Then click back up if you want to back up your iPad first. After that click restore. Later it will ask you if you want to setup the iPad as a new iPad. Select the option to setup your iPad with your latest back up.

My iPad standard window is bit too big for the screen.

My iPad screen unexpectedly got slightly too big for the display window. The size is bit too big. For example, the keyboard when it pops up does not fully display all tkey sans. Another example is the time/power remaining bar slips out of sight. Did I accidentally change something? Is this an issue with version of iOS that I am using (4.3.3)? (Note I'm not talking about resizing by using your fingers.)

John,
I am having the same problem. The enlargement is not the same as the 3 finger tap or the 2 finger zoom. The screen opens and then bumps to a slightly larger screen just enough to make it too big to see the outer edges. You can put 3 fingers on the screen and move the screen to see the edges but you cannot get it to shrink to the correct size. This is the second time this has happened to me. I am also having some other issues. Sometimes while in an app the app will close and I will be diverted to the home screen. And sometimes when playing "with Friends games" the letters on the letterboard (not the key pad) disappear, will not move or are giant. I plan on taking it back to the Apple store this week but I hate the idea of having to start over.

How do you make fonts back to default size in Firefox 24? They are blown way too big.

Since upgrading to Firefox 22 and 24, the font size has been extremely huge. The only way to make it smaller is ctrl - , but when I go to other sites the fonts are normal size.
I want to be able to get the default size font on the Firefox 24. I've been using Chrome because this has been so darned annoying, it's even causing Bing to screw up.
Can someone help me get this fixed?

This isn't the best way for it.
Coz my monitor isn't really big.(21.5')
It is very match for me by using 125%.
But for FF22(or above) is too big, and the photo will zoom in for 125%
that was a mess.
And Chrome has the function but it isn't default but adjust from "chrome://flags"

You Tube Player Size Too Big in Firefox by default

I recently experienced that the You Tube player automatically became large.
The standard size for YouTube videos seems to have changed from their old standard into the size that used to be halfway between normal and fullscreen.
That is WAY too big, and it's actually disgusting to look at with 360p and below videos. The vast majority of videos look like crap when they're stretched out.
There is a new button, "centered player," where the old "large player" button used to be. Clicking on it will center my enormous window, then that button displays "default player," which brings me back to this large, uncentered player.
This is happening with Firefox, with IE working fine.
Although I am technically incompetent I tried a few suggestions:
Remove all cookies
Hit Ctrl+Shift+K and insert the code below in console:
document.cookie="VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE=; path=/; domain=.youtube.com";window.location.reload();
However, I am getting the following messages:
Use of getAttributeNodeNS() is deprecated. Use getAttributeNS() instead. util-service.jsm:590
Use of getPreventDefault() is deprecated. Use defaultPrevented instead.
And it is not working, back to same Large Player….
Hopefully Mozilla can do something to fix this.
Thanks!
