Makking image size smaller

Hi I got a new camera and ive noticed that each photo is 20.3 MB and thats pretty big so i was wondering if there was a way collectively making images smaller. ( i know how to do that with photo shop but its annoying to do one pic at the time )
thanks

In iPhoto? No. If you make a change in iPhoto, the change is applied to a new file, so reducing the file size actually ends up taking more space not less.
Some thoughts: With a file size of 20MB I'm guessing that you're shooting in RAW. IF you don't wan that amount of info, then don't shoot RAW. Or shoot at a lower quality setting.
After that, you can resize the pics before importing them to iPhoto. I think Graphic Coverter has the ability to do this in Batches.

Photoshop crashes when I try and save for web and devices. Making the image size smaller does not help.

I'm trying to make a lopping .gif from an animation that I made. It's 147 total frames. It's crashed about 6 times now every time I either try and Save for Web or even just save the document on my desktop so in case it crashes I can reopen PS and recover it. Making the image size smaller (original size is 1920 x 1080 with resolution 72) does not help, it still makes the *ding* error when I attempt to save. I made the image more than half of the original size and the Save for Web box actually came up that time, but when I tried clicking save it said there was an error and PS crashed without warning.

Look at the crash report for your Photoshop crashes see what they show

Background image size smaller but same quality?

Hi guys,
I just released www.cloudformz.com, It's an advanced formbuilder (Dutch) and the whole theme is that it's a cloud service.
So,how surprising, I use a cloud background (1920 x 1080). My question is, how can I get the filesize smaller, but the same quality.
I am aware of the quality slider when exporting for web, but that decreases the quality sow much that you see artifacts.
Thanks in advance.

Internet users expecting to use "cloud" services would normally be fairly well connected to the Internet, no?
Your background image, http://www.cloudformz.com/img/bg.jpg, is only 64 kbytes. That's already almost inconsequentially small for an image that size... It's a fairly highly compressed JPEG with no color profile info or metadata in it. I don't think you're going to get it much smaller than that without seeing quality loss.
However, one thing to try, with a large graphic containing open spaces and pure, solid colors, would be to save as a PNG, which can be very efficient for such files. However, any noise or gradients in the image at all will cause a big increase in size.

Flash Player image size small

Playing a Flash presentation in Firefox, I noticed that
Control+"+" did not enlarge the images. Making the window larger
only increased the white space around the images. How does a viewer
make the pictures and text of a presentation larger?

Hi Alamos,
Stage.scaleMode = "allowScale";
Put this in the first frame of the whole flash, the root and
check it. If you enter "noScale", it doesnt zoom. Hope its cleared
now.

Since downloading the 2013 Keynote upgrade, the slide image size on handouts with 3 slides per page option is very small. Is there a way to make the slide size larger while still keeping 3 slides per page lines?

With the new Keynote upgrade (version 6.1), the slide image size on handouts is very small, which makes it difficult to read slide content when compiling lecture notes for students. Is there a way to make the slide size larger while still keeping to a format of 3 slides per page with lines?

A number of posts have reported the same issue, two workarounds:
1
check the paper handling options or equivalent in your print dialogue box and set to scale to fit
2
in the Keynote option, in the dropdown menu in the Print section, select Individual Slides
then choose Layout, and set the number of pages, when printed you will have multiple pages on a single sheet.

I'm trying to get the image to print correct size. i've tried center image, fit to media image, and they all come out the same size...smaller than the size in "image size". is this an Epson problem or Photoshop problem. Thanks!

I just got a new printer...Epson R3000...but have had this problem before. It's probably a simple fix, but I can't figure it out. I'm asking for printing on 8.5 x 11 and the image comes out 6.5 x 9.5 every time. Help please! And thanks!

The Epson site stated that the R3000 printer can print borderless however the quality will suffer in the expanded print area. Borderless is not supported on some heavy paper. To me the means your better off limiting you images size to the standard print area. There will be magins about 1/8" on the four sides so the print area on 8.5"x11" paper is 8.26" x 10.76"....
Take note of the print size set by the epson driver it may change depending on the paper type set. Note my first epson 4800 setup where I set 8.5" x 11" sheet paper from tray into the printer setting the driver set a smaller size for the paper which was reflected into the Photoshop Print preview. It shows paper is 8.499" x 10.999 with a small unprintable area across the top....
Paper
Use paper under normal conditions:
Temperature: 59 to 77 °F (15 to 25 °C)
Humidity: 40 to 60% RH
Note:
Since the quality of any particular brand or type of paper may be changed by the manufacturer at any time, Epson cannot guarantee the quality of any non-Epson brand or type of paper. Always test a sample of paper stock before purchasing large quantities or printing large jobs.

Problem with Image - Image Size (Photoshop CC 2014 Mac.) I get a small square shape in place of a curser

I tried resizing an image. I click on Image then Image Size and no dialog box to change the size comes up. Instead when I move the cursor over the image a small square replaces the cursor. All the choices in the "Image" drop down turn light gray. If I hit "Escape" Everything looks normal. Problem went away when I uninstalled Photoshop and reinstalled it, but it came back.

Two ideas:
Open Image > Image Size and hold down the Option key. The Cancel button will change to Reset. Click on it.
That may work.
If not,
Try a Preferences reset from the keyboard.
Close Photoshop
Press and hold down Cmd-Opt-Shift Start Photoshop. Look for delete settings dialog and click on "Yes"
Then after Photoshop loads, try the Image Size again.

Photo image size after file transfer much smaller

I am transfering photos over to my wife's Macbook and after the transfer, the photos are of a much smaller file size. Is there a way to transfer the photos at their full image size?

Dragging and dropping to a web-based email (gmail) makes the photo appear inside the message itself, and not as an attachment, which is what I wanted.

Image size of iPhone 5S is smaller than screen size

When I click any picture with my iPhone 5s, the image size is always 20-30% smaller than screen size. Its like a picture clicked from iPhone 4, is this an issue or is it designed in that way?? Coz Images clicked in potrait mode are always cropped 20-30% and I am not liking it..

If auto adjust to fit with the Default Full Zoom extension isn't working then the pages may be using absolute values for elements and in such a case you would have to zoom the pages manually.
Can you post a link to a few pages where it isn't working properly?

How to split image into smaller (same size) pieces?

Hi all,
My question is how to split image into smaller (same size) pieces, using Photoshop elements 13? Could anyone help me with this one?
Thanks!

Use the Expert tab in Editor (I think that is what it is called in PSEv.13)
You may find the grid helpful. Go to View>Grid. It will not print, but will help to orient you. You can set up the gridlines to suit via Edit>Preferences>Guides and Grid. If you want to partition the picture in to 4 uniform pieces, it would be Gridline every 50%, Subdivision 1. Also, go to View>Snap to>Grid.
Set up the Rectangular marquee tool: If the picture is 6" wide & 4" high, enter width=3in & height=2in.on the tool's option bar. This will be a fixed size.
Click and select one quadrant, press CTRL+J to place this quadrant on a separate layer
Repeat for the other 3 quadrants
You should end up with 5 layers : Background, and layers 1, 2, 3, 4.

Having trouble with image size on new HP2311x display with 4 year old MacBook. Image too small. Do I have to stay in mirror mode? I have messed with OSD and Image Control menus on display and have gotten nowhere. Help?

Have just installed new HP 2311x display withe 4 year old MacBook. VGA cable. In mirror mode, at high resolution of 1920x1080, image size on HP display is too small. How can I get it to fill screen? If not in mirror mode, the display looks good, only I can't get the top menu bar (tried to drag it) nor the rest of the desktop. Help?

Map.app image size is almost never correct. Always small, except when 'actual size'!

I insert images into Apple Mail and they look fine (Image Size set to "Actual Size".)
But sometimes I want then slightly smaller without editing, saving and re-loading.
So I use the very handy Image Size feature in Mail.app.
Sadly, whether the image is set to Small, Medium or Large, the image is ALWAYS resized to Small.
On rare occasions I see a difference for Large, but then medium and small are always the same.
Even the byte counts for the message are the same across all image sizes.
It seems the only REAL options are 'Small' and 'Actual Size'.
I have had this issue with all versions of Mac OS X that included this feature up to and including Mavericks.
Has anyone figured out the messed up magic that makes this feature work correctly, or in sty least a sane or consistent manner?

Thanks for the reply Jon, but unfortunately I ended up with the same result as MTSTUNER said (using the Crop Tool).
MTSTUNER, that definitely helped. The problem must have been in pasting, which as you said brings a "non-smart" image over. I was even able to resize a bit on the new document without losing any clarity whatsoever. Very helpful - THANK YOU!

Caller Image size have become smaller

Upgraded my Xperia S to andriod jelly bean 4.1.2. Its amazing but I have lost my most favourite feature in Sony Mobile. The Caller Images have become smaller. Before the jelly bean update. The Caller image used to be full size as that of the screen. Post upadate the image size has reduced drastically with a lot white spaces around the image.
Can anyone help, please

If you have synced your contacts to your for example Google account the contact picture will be cropped and smaller. But if you have local stored contacts and add a contact picture it will still be big.
Gmail recently added support for big pictures so if you add the picture on the contact through Gmail.com you will also get a bigger picture.

Small image size after exporting

Hello,
When I export an image with dimesions of 4214x3371, the image size will show as 1.124x1.405''. This is a problem because I am trying to print my images on a 16x20'' canvas. My resolution is set at 3000ppi and I am exporting RAW files to an uncompressed TIFF file with my color space being ProPhoto RGB.
Any input would be appreciated, this is quite frusterating.

Let's see ... 4214 pixels divided by 3000 pixels per inch is um ... wait where's my calculator ... 1.405 inches!
of course, the whole calculation is meaningless, it has no effect on what gets printed
If you send a picture that is 4214x3371 pixels to be printed at 16x20 ... you ought to get decent prints at about 211 pixels per inch (where did that come from? 4214/20 inches is about 211 pixels per inch)
So, basically, you have enough pixels to do the print. The resolution number in the file is truly meaningless here, if you ignore it and do the math the way I did, you find out you are fine. If you try to interpret this meaningless number, well, you get misled seriously.

Cs4 small jpeg file shows as large image size

Hi I am using Photoshop CS4 and I am trying to downsize images shot from my camera to less than 1 mb, by shifting the quality of the jpeg slider to the left in the save as menu.
Once I've done that when I open the newly reduced jpeg file again, and I go to the image Size, it shows as 25 Mb,
This started happening after I reinstalled the Cs4 Creative Suite to my computer.
What can I do, as when I tried to upload the images, ebay said they were too large, ie the file size of the image didnt get reduced at all.
Is it possible to fix this as I have reinstalled the software twice, and I still get the same problem,
thanks

Is it possible to fix this as I have reinstalled the software twice, and I still get the same problem
I think the problem is not at all Photoshop’s.
When you degrade an image by reducing the jpg quality the number of pixels does not change so the uncompressed image (as indicated for the opened file in Photoshop’s Image Size dialog) naturally has the old size.
What are ebay’s image requirements? Do they mention some maximum width/height in pixels?
