Making a photo the backgound and writing over it?

Can someone tell me how I can Add a Photo in Pages as a background and write over it? Also what to do when the picture becomes blurry because it's too small? I want the photo the same just enlarged to take up the whole space!
Thanks
Keith

In a Word processing template you Paste or Drag an image to the page, position and size it, then Arrange > Send Object to Background. Now you can type over it.
It is never good to enlarge an image/photo because you get a blurry or pixelated image. Get a photo that has a good size and resolution from the beginning.

  • My iphone 4S wont allow me to restore a bckup of icloud it has just rebooted the os and for over 24 hours i have been trying to fix it i use this phone for my job so i need help

    My iphone 4S wont allow me to restore a bckup of icloud it has just rebooted the os and for over 24 hours i have been trying to fix it i use this phone for my job so i need help. when i try to restore it says "Your iphone could not be activated becuase the activation server is unavailable, If the problom presests goto apple.com/support"   It has done this for 27 hours now PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

    - Connect the iPod to the computer and see if iTunes sees it. If it sees it try to get the photos off the iPod.
    - Next let the battery fully drain. It will likely take days. After charging for at least an hour try again
    - Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Reading the Blob and writing it to an external file in an xml tree format

    Hi,
    We have a table by name clarity_response_log and content of the column(Response_file) is BLOB and we have xml file or xml content in that column. Most probably the column or table may be having more than 5 records and hence we need to read the corresponding blob content and write to an external file.
    CREATE TABLE CLARITY_RESPONSE_LOG
      REQUEST_CODE   NUMBER,
      RESPONSE_FILE  BLOB,
      DATE_CRATED    DATE                           NOT NULL,
      CREATED_BY     NUMBER                         NOT NULL,
      UPDATED_BY     NUMBER                         DEFAULT 1,
      DATE_UPDATED   VARCHAR2(20 BYTE)              DEFAULT SYSDATE
    )The xml content in the insert statement is very small because of some reason and cannot be made public and indeed we have a very big xml file stored in the BLOB column or Response_File column

    What was wrong with the previous answers given on your other thread:
    Export Blob data to text file(-29285-ORA-29285: file write error)
    If there's a continuing issue, stay with the same thread, don't just ask the same question again and again, it's really Pi**es people off and causes confusion as not everyone will be familiar with what answers you've already had. You're just wasting people's time by doing that.
    As already mentioned before, convert your BLOB to a CLOB and then to XMLTYPE where it can be treated as XML and written out to file in a variety of ways including the way I showed you on the other thread.
    You really seem to be struggling to get the worst possible way to work.

  • My daughter's data has been put on my icloud account.  I cannot hook up to the icloud wihtout getting all her info on my phone.  i would like to delete the account and start over or find a way to remove her info

    Without realizing it, my daughter and I are both using my icloud account for our phones.  Now I cannot go to the cloud without importing all of my daughter's data to my phone.  Is there any way to remove her data from the icloud account or delete the account and start over?  I plan on wiping her phone clean and having her create her own account with her own email address

    Be sure she signs out of your account before wiping her phone. Also, make sure Find my iPhone is disabled before you wipe it..
    Unfortunately, since you have "merged" her data with yours, you will need to delete each unwanted item individually. If you delete the account, when you sign back in with the same account the same data will be synched back from iCloud.

  • I still don't totally understand the difference on my iPhone between PhotoStream (with iCloud icon), Photos (the icon) and Albums and Camera Roll (under Photos icon) and and Camera Roll (under Camera icon).  I want to delete photos from my iPhone 4.

    I  don’t  understand the difference on my iPhone between PhotoStream (with iCloud icon), Photos (the icon) and Albums and Camera Roll (under Photos icon) and and Camera Roll (under Camera icon).  They seem to be more or less the same thing, but deleting photos in one place does not delete them elsewhere.
    When I tried to import from my camera to my iMac computer the computer would not recognized 900 of the 920 photos on the camera so I had to (successfully) use the Image Capture application to import them.
    I want to delete photos from my iPhone 4 in order to free up storage (I only have 8GB.)  But in synching I do not want to delete any images from my iPhoto on my computer.
    Is there a way that I can Delete All under Edit in either Photos or Camera on my iPhone and check about 20 ijmages to remain on the iPhone?  I could find no command to Select All and then uncheck the 20 photos I want to keep.
    I have the 8GB iPhone and the iMac with OS 10.9.2 and iPhoto '09 Version 8.1.2.
    Help!

    I have Version 6.1.3 because the clogged storage will not allow me to upload Version 7.1.  Catch 22.  This is basically a storage issue, I believe.  I cannot delete enough stuff on my iPhone to allow me to either back up or upload the new OS 7.  I am unwilling to pay for more storage in iCloud, so I want to delete stuff I don't need.  But I haven't yet figured out how to successfully do that.  I synch my phone and computer.  I want to delete mail on the Mail app and photos and still keep my photos on my computer on iPhoto, but not on my phone.  I seem unable to do that.  Any advice?

    Hello chrispyw,
    If your content is still being displayed incorrectly, I would check the resolution setting for the built in display with this article:
    OS X Yosemite: Adjust your display’s resolution
    If it keeps happening whenever you use AirPlay then I would use this section of the following article to reset the display system:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • My brother-in-law recently passed away. My sister gave his MacBook Pro to my niece. When she opens and starts the laptop, it shows my brother-in-laws name. Is there a way to change his name to her name without formatting the device and starting over?

    BigTex415,
    my condolences for your family’s loss. If all she seeks to do is to change the display name, and she’s willing to leave the account name unchanged, then she could do the following: log in as the administrative user and open the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences. If the padlock in the lower-left corner is locked, unlock it. Select the account that shows your brother-in-law’s name on the left-hand side of the window, and then on the right-hand side, change the text in the “Full name” textbox to her preferred display name. If desired, click on the padlock in the lower-left corner to relock it.

    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements

    Upgrading to Mavericks
    You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free.

  • Firefox 7 hangs a whole lot in the past several weeks. I can hardly get through typing an email without it freezing and making me have to kill the program and start over.

    I am using firefox 7, windows 7 pro, 64 bit machine.
    If I am typing an email I never know if I can finish because it often freezes and I cannot get the mouse to do anything. I have to hit "control-alt-delete" and stop firefox and sometimes the process and then start over. Also firefox is consuming a lot of cpu resources
    (over 110,000k and sometimes near 200,000k). Is that normal?

    We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.

  • I can only open one PDF in session. If I try to open a different one, I get the same as before. The only way to see a different PDF is to close the browser and start over. A bit hassle with sites requiring a password.

    Many web sites have links to multiple PDF files. I have no trouble reading the first PDF file, but if I try to open a different one, I always get the first one I opened. Firefox ignores the other links and goes back to the first one. The only remedy seems to be to close Firefox and start over again. This is a hassle for sites requiring a username and password to enter. What's wrong here?

    This is easily done with dial peer statements . The dial peer in your originating router must route the calls to the terminating router first. That would look like :
    dial-peer voice xxxxx voip ( the xxxxx is just a tag)
    destination-pattern 45... (that would route any 5-digit calls beginning with 45)
    session-target ipv4:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (ip address of the terminating router)
    If digitones are to be dialed after the connection is established, use the statement:
    dtmf-relay-h.245-alphanumeric
    You could also use a statement to specify the codec to be used:
    codec g711ulaw
    You would need multiple voip dial peers if the calls were going to different routers based on the dialed digits. If all calls are sent to the same terminating router, use all wild cards in the dest-pattern statement.
    At the terminating router configure pots dial peers:
    dial-peer voice xxxxx pots
    dest-pattern 45...
    port x/x (whichever port the call is to be terminated on)
    prefix 45 (this re-inserts matched digits which are stripped off by the pots dp)
    Repeat for other ports which will receive calls.
