Online in-depth PS Course (not free)

Hello,
I have been using PS for about a year now and am becoming quite proficient. I have found lots of tutorial videos online that have helped immensely. However, I would like to formalize my learning because I am sure there are fundamentals that I have missed.
My company provides $1000 per year in tuition reimbursement. There used to be a requirement that the education had to be job-specific, but that has been lifted now. Last year I completed the NYIP photography course and now am looking for a similar PS course.
I find that I learn more effectively with a series of one or two hour classes a week or so apart, rather than an immersive one or two day course. I would also prefer to work online, rather than in a classroom setting as my work schedule is often erratic. I am ok starting with a complete beginner's course. I would prefer the emphasis to be on photography post-processing rather than graphic design, but some graphic design in the syllabus would be ok. If there could be testing and/or reviews along the way, that would be great as I think it would motivate me more. A certification at the end is not that important, but would be nice.
Also, $1000 is not my entire budget, it's just what I get reimbursed.
If you have any suggestions or recommendations, they would be most appreciated! Thank you

"Free" apps that are not free - recourse?

Has anyone experienced any issues with downloading a "free" app and then receiving a text stating the app is 9.99/month? What is the recourse?
Unfortunately, I don't recall the name of the app (game), but the text I received is a "mobile registration alert" with my phone# and the cost, with name Fonesocial (800-814-2129) in text. On principle, I texted back complaining about the deceitfulness of the app and refuse to call the number. I'm watching my bill to see if I get a charge from them.

How do I prevent phone numbers on my account from using Premium Messaging?
Account holders can disable Premium Messaging via My Verizon.
To disable Premium Messaging:
Make sure you are signed in to My Verizon
Click on the Safe Guards icon.
Under Service Blocks, click on “Add/Remove Blocks”. A list of available service blocks will display.
Check the box next to “Block Premium SMS”.
Note: this needs to be done for each line on the account that you want to prevent from using Premium Messaging. This will prevent anyone from using those lines to subscribe to new Premium Messaging programs or from incurring premium charges from new programs.
Here is a link that should direct you where you need, I found this with a quidk search... http://support.vzw.com/faqs/Premium_TXT_and_MMS/faq_premium_txt_and_mms.html

like someone else suggested, block premium messaging on your account.
This is correct that this is a common way of authorizing a Premium messages but some programmers has figured out other ways to trick you into granting permission to allow them to charge your account. Basically you should be safe from the Market but when you buy from other sites outside the market network they can sometime work the premium message agreement into the agreement policy information to download app.
Best to read everything you are agreeing to these days, electronics agreement can be just as dangerous even without credit card or account numbers, all they need is cell number.

Removed photos but did not free up memory, why?

My memory on my iphone 4S is low, so I deleted all my photos, but it did not free up the memory. Can anyone help?

David,
Thanks for the note. I looked up online and you are correct...the aspect ratio for my camera is indeed 4:3. I see in my camera settings where I can change the size of the photos but I've played around with that stuff and seen no difference in the aspect ratio.
I guess I'm stuck with what I've got?
I tried converting some of them with iphoto to a different aspect ratio and I don't think that's possible either.
Thx.

I bought student mac air through university account, Iworks were included when I purchased mac air. But there are no iworks and It's not free when I tried to download from App Store

I bought student mac air through university account, Iworks were included when I purchased mac air. But there are no iworks and It's not free when I tried to download from App Store. OS was OS X Mountain Lion 10.9 When I received it. Is it because of OS? I upgraded to OS X Mavericks right after I got it.

Today, I went to the mac store and asked the staff about above issue. Apple obviously sent me a mac air which was manufactured before October 2013 and therefore, iworks and OX Mavericks weren't installed. I have refund for around £45 to purchase iworks. However, I wasn't happy with what Apple actually did. I asked for replacement and refund the one I got and getting the new one from store so I can use mac straight away. however, the refund takes 5-7 working days. The staff on the phone told me if I have enough money I can just buy the new one in the store and get refund later. So I gave up! I was so disappointed with Apple. Even though I use the mac now, this was not the one Apple promised when I purchased online. if anyone would like to buy a mac, Please go to the actual store. DO NOT buy a mac through MAC ONLINE STORE!!! I strongly recommend! I feel like I wasted my time because the company doesn't keep its promise.

I reinstall the Yosemite due to the wifi issue, when finished, the iMovie was not installed, I try to download it from app store, but it's not free. How can I get iMovie back?

I'm using a mid 2014 13" rmbp. I reinstall the Yosemite due to the wifi issue, when finished, the iMovie was not installed, I try to download it from app store, but it's not free. How can I get iMovie back?

It's something to do with the main user account (not iTunes account) on my Mac because I logged in with another account and it downloaded fine, I installed it on the HDD and even though the date in App Store was 16th October 2014, it is the full installer of 10.10.2.
To try to resolve this problem, I have copied the installer app elsewhere and deleted it but App Store still will not allow me to download it with my main user account yet just allowed me to update iTunes.
I had a brainwave last night that it might have been related to me changing the default downloads folder to one not on my boot drive (to save disk space on my main boot drive) but having changed it back, tried again, rebooted and tried yet again, deleted my App Store preferences. nothing has worked.

Could you please tell me why as a Brit resident in Japan therefore having a billing address that is Japanese is forced to only get service from the Japanese online store? Is there not some way of allowing me to select movies and music to buy and download

Could you please tell me why as a Brit resident in Japan therefore having a billing address that is Japanese is forced to only get service from the Japanese online store? Is there not some way of allowing me to select movies and music to buy and download from other stores. Why do am i forced to try to nread Japanese when I have selected English as my language. The price for Downloads is no different and even if it was I am happy to pay. This also applies to Movie rental which is crazy and extremely restrictive. I a supposed GLOBAL community why does Apple do this.

You can buy ONLY from the itunes store of your country of residence (As proven by valid billing address of credit card) and ONLY while inside the borders of that country.
These are the terms of the itunes store.

I am locked out of my iphone. In resetting my passcode I must have hit a wrong digit, because the 4 digits I thought I used Don't work (and of course not my old passcode). I have tried the instructions both for "if you have previously synced your device with iTunes" and "If you have Never synced your device with iTunes" . Neither has worked and I'm in a vicious circle with each time after lengthy downloads it still all ends with the program, & my phone, asking for my passcode to proceed. I'm not sure if I have ever synced to my mac book (i may have) but my address book seems to automatically update on both devices without the need to plug in. Thank you for any knowledgable help that could efficiently get me out of this passcode ****!

Hi DRussell,
If you have not sync'd your device to your Mac then you will have to force the phone into recovery mode and restore as a new device. Read the information in this link and follow the instructions to recover the phone:

ITunes free songs are not free

The weekly song says "free" but to download it one must enter a credit card number. This is not free. I must pay for the song by providing priveledged information that has nothing to do with the transaction. Why must I provide potential access to my credit card account in order to receive a song that is provided free of charge (monetary)? I will only provide a credit card number when I feel like buying something. A free song should be free, period. You should be honest like #2 of the Village and admit to everyone that you want "Information... information... information...". From me you won't be getting it, by hook or by crook.

Hi gridsleep from somewhere,
I presume you visit the US music Store. As far as I know that Music Store is the only one to offer free songs. The CC information is needed to verify you're in the US of A.
I for example can't buy from other Stores than the Dutch one.
The deal with the record companies/right holders don't allow cross-border sales. The same is true for free songs (I can't get them).
That's why they need the CC information.
Hope this helps.

Free songs not free?

I always like to hit the "Free on iTunes" every week. Have found some cool new artists that way. But the last couple of weeks, songs/videos that appear in the "Free on iTunes", when clicked, are NOT free. Last week I ended up paying for a video that was suppose to be "Free". At least, one would assume it is supposed to be free since it appears in the section, "Free on iTunes".
This week, two of the items in the "Free on iTunes" section are not "free". If you click the "View" button to look at the details, the download button shows a charge. One is $0.99; the other $1.29. If they aren't free, why are they even showing up in the "Free on iTunes" section. I don't mind paying for music when I want it. But when I'm offered something for "free" and then charged for it, that seems a bit deceptive.
Anyone else annoyed by this?

It would appear that the iPod hard drive or iPod software has become corrupt. This doesn't mean that the songs are not on your iPod, hence the fact that the iPod reports used space and iTunes may show them.
You should restore the iPod and then reload the songs from iTunes.

Free Phone was not Free and no Customer Service

Why was I Charge a $30.00 upgrade fee when I received my new Commando 4G LTE phone. The ad said it was free? $30.00 ain't free! I saw nothing in the add that said I was going to pay an extra $30.00. I did buy an accessory package for $49.99, but my bill came to $79.99 plus tax, I believe this is false advertising. When I called the number "For questions on your billing", I was on hold for 30 minutes and hung up, as I got tired of waiting.

Paying $30.00 for a free phone IS NOT FREE! I don't care what you call it, it ain't free!
I've been with Verizon since they took over this area's Alltel customers and have never been charged for a new phone. You're not going to build a very loyal base when you keep adding fees and raising cost , you can bet I'll be looking at other cell phone services in the future. I just had my WiFi go from $10.00 to $15.00 a GB and now this. I guess keeping your old customers isn't important anymore.

I deleted unwanted photos from my iPhoto library, emptied iPhoto trash & Finder trash... this did not free up disk space. please help!

I deleted unwanted photos from my iPhoto library, emptied iPhoto trash & Finder trash... this did not free up disk space. please help!
I have a 15-inch MacBook Pro (Late 2011) with OS X Mavericks 10.9.5
Last week, my 500 GB Harddrive had 120 GB free space. I was feeling crumby and decided to make productive use of taking a day off to lounge around. I snuggled up with my laptop and dedicated hours to meticulously combing through my iPhoto Library. I had 13,000 pictures, and I got rid of those I didn't want. Having said "sayōnara" to about 6,500 pictures, I then emptied the iPhoto trash and the Finder trash. I took delight in the iconic paper crumpling sound of them vanishing into the digital void.
Everything seemed perfect: the photos I loved were still there, the photos I loathed were gone, both trashes were beautifully empty. Having thrown away all of those awful, boring, and unflattering images of poorly light lunches and selfies gone wrong, my iPhoto library was half the size as before! I felt renewed, a little lighter, somehow more free, and I expected my hard drive to be a bit different to.
I eagerly checked my storage stats. My heart sank to see that my 120 GB of free space, was still only 120 GB of free space. I restarted my MacBook; this did not help. I restarted it the next day; this also did not help. It's been 5 days and the hard drive still has 120 GB free space. This is not an emergency and it will probably be a good while before I clutter my laptop to the brim. Yet while I am glad I don't have to see cringeworthy pictures of my ex's unmentionables every time I'm showing off things I do want to remember, I'm still disappointed and now obsessed with solving this mystery.
What is going on? I don't see them, so where are they hiding? How do I get the free space I should have earned from throwing away 1,000's of photos?!

Thank you, Terence!
Yes, I only emptied the trash when it was really full, once I waited until the trash cans contained 2,600 photos and then I emptied them - Oooops! In the future, I'll keep in mind your suggestion of deleting less than 100 photos at a time.
I downloaded the iPhoto Library Manager and used it to rebuild my iPhoto. After a few hours of rebuilding, it generated a new copy of my iPhoto Library. This versions was nearly identical to the original (it was missing 5 photos and was therefore only 5 mb smaller). I guess my Library wasn't defective.
I checked my storage stats, and interestingly, using iPhoto Library Manager did help with the problem that developed after I re-indexed my hard drive. My hard drive is able to properly recognize data categories again, instead of listing almost everything as "Other". Understandably, my free disk space changed from 120 GB to about 60 GB, because my hard drive now contained a second copy of my iPhoto Library as well as iPhoto Library Manager. It seemed like all I needed to do was throw these away, but when I emptied the trash, my problem was not solved. My Hard drive now looked like this:
It appears to me that when I empty the trash, the things I throw away are just hanging around as backups instead of leaving! I went into System Preferences and turned of my time machine OFF. Now my hard drive looks likes this:
The back ups of the iPhoto files, and the program which I deleted, are still on my hard drive some where but now they are listed as "Other" instead of "Backups". Do you know where they might be and how I can delete them for good?

Help needed: Disk space does not free up even after deleting files.

Background information for this problem: I have my iPhoto library on an external HD, and was importing files from that same drive into iPhoto, and began receiving messages that I was very low on disk space on my internal HD. From here, it seemed like iPhoto was using my boot drive for some kind of cache. Regardless of the actual reason, I began moving files from my internal HD to fix this problem temporarily (while I was importing).
At this point, I started fiddling with my files and found that no matter how many files I would delete from my HD, the available space in the finder would not free up. *At this point, I have less than 20GB on my HD, yet it says I have 1.23 GB available out of 108 GB.*
Here is what I have already tried to fix the problem, to no avail:
a) Original user was using Filevault. I backed up all the files, created a new user without Filevault, and restored the files.
b) Booted from CD and used Disk Utility to erase free space.
c) Verified and fixed permissions
d) Deleted all app and system caches (via CacheOut X)
e) Fixed/Repaired all user/system preferences (via Preferential Treatment)
*Does anyone have any idea what's going on?*

Thanks for the suggestion.
I ran WhatSize and here is the result. Oddly, it says there is 40.2 GB used (in the top-left) which conflicts with the information directly below it: "Capacity 108 GB, Used 103GB, Available 4.27 GB". Not so helpful.
Disk Inventory X solved the problem, however. Much thanks! I wasted most of my weekend troubleshooting this sad issue. Anyway, Disk Inventory X revealed a bug where my external hard drive for photos was still appearing as a mounted volume, even though the HD was no longer connected. Freaky.
After moving it to the trash and deleting it, I've recovered the space.
Again, thanks! Contact me if you're curious about the details, as this might help you diagnose similar problems in the future.

I cannot get my iPhone 4S to connect to iMessage n FaceTime have tried all the tips online and it's still not working ? It's just saying waiting for activation

What tips have you tried so far? Just so we don't waste our time telling you things you've already done.
When you respond, also indicate which country and carrier you're using. Also, is your phone brand new? can you make a phone call / access the internet while on cellular?

If you download an app that is not free is that charged monthly or is that a one time fee?

i have free apps, but i was wondering about the ones that are not free, are those a monthly charge or is it a one time charge?

An App purchase i.e. a not free one, should be a one time cost. However be aware that you can also purchase a subscription to for example magazines. Subscriptions would be recurring costs. These should clearly indicate this when you try to purchase them. The subscription is normally done within the App itself (the App is typically free).
