Photo sizes too big to send

You will know from this question that I am totally new to this.
I just started working with my brand new Mac, and I'm used to PC's. In the photo program I'm used to, I can double click on a photo and that brings be to a place where I can resize the photo so I can easily e-mail it. I can't find a way to do the same thing in iPhoto.
Help?

If you're using Apple's Mail program, you can just go ahead and select the photos and click on Mail.
The photos will appear gigantic, and on the bottom of the message you'll see the estimated message size. Next to that is a popup that says "Actual size". You can change that to small, medium or large, and Mail will automatically resize the photos for emailing, and you will see that in the message size estimate.
It's the coolest feature I've used in Mail, I don't have to bother with scaling, exporting, or dialog boxes at all.

  • Photo's too big for sending

    I have a blackberry Z10 which is getting better and better with each update, if only I had a an app for google and RBS I would be proper sorted. 
    One other annoyance is that I use the camera a lot for work items that need to be emailed to people and my last Blackberry did that very quickly because the pictures were of lowere quality.
    But because the BB Z10 pictures are of high quality big files, I have to faff about with the photos reducing the size of them before sending, this takes up lots of valuable time.
    I downloaded photo studio to do this, but really the smartphone camera should give me an option of what size to send before I click the button. 
    Is there an easy fix for this?

    Yea, the option was there, I've used, and like you, now it's gone.  I am asking around.

  • Photos Are Too Big

    Good morning.
    I've just started exploring the possibility of making a photo album in iPhoto. When I place a photo on a full page, the photos are too big for the 'frame'- that is, the frame crops part of my photos off. I have tried using the resizing tool but find that the photos are already resized to their smallest.
    Is there another way to deal with this problem?
    Thanks,
    BurntMonkey

    John:
    iPhoto puts up that warning when the resolution of the image falls below 180 dpi. A lot would depend on how far it falls below. They will not appear as good as they do on screen but that goes for all of the photos. The monitor display usually has more contrast and snap than the printed version. But that's not to mean the printed version doesn't or won't look good.
    You can approximate the dpi of the photo for the frame that's giving the warning. The pages are 8.5 x 11. Estimate the size of the frame and divide the frame's dimension into the pictures corresponding pixel dimension.
    What are the pixel dimensions of a typical photo that's giving you the warning sign and what page layout/frame are the in?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • TS3276 server says file too big to send-file says 33MB server says 44MB

    I cannot send a short video which is 33.1 MB in the description but the server won't process as it claims the file is too big(44MB) and it can handle only 41MB.
    I've tried to compress it but still reads as "too big to send"

    You seem focused on the difference between 33 megabytes binary and a 44 megabytes transfer — the messages have to be encoded as SMTP mail was never intended as a binary transfer mechanism — mail servers transfer printable text messages — and the text-encoded attached binary files are inherently going to be larger than the original files.
    You're going to have to raise the mail server limits (which requires administrative access to the mail server), or find an alternate means of transferring the file — mail servers aren't very efficient at large transfers, large files tend to blow out mail server storage quotas, and blow out mail files.   Or chunk up the file into smaller files, send the chunks independently, and then concatenate the file remotely.  (There are tools around to do this — at the command line, have a look at the zipsplit tool — but I'd generally discourage this approach as it adds effort and complexity to the process.)
    The usual approach is a file transfer service.   Dropbox or SpiderOak or some other file hosting or file transfer service are the most common approaches here, and are also more efficient than the overhead involved with large attachments sent via a mail server.   Many of these file-hosting services offer more than enough storage here, and often as part of a free service tier.  
    Some folks can and do run their own file-hosting services, but that generally involves configuring and managing a server system and the associated network connections.

    I need some advice about the macbook pro and iPhone 5.
    I took a video on my iPhone and tried to email it it said it was too big to send? So i downloaded it to my macbook pro and tried to mail it to no avail? The macbook tells me the server won't let it through other mail goes through any ideas how to resize it or what it might take to send it?

    I agree with LowLister, the best option for you to share the video online is to upload it to your online storage account for example : Box, Dropbox, SkyDrive (All of them provide free storage beginning from 2GB).
    You can upload the files which you want to share in this online storage and then they have sharing options in which you'll will get the link of the file to be sent and send the email. You're good to go!
    Tip : You can store multiple files for backup purposes.

  • Illustrator CC 2014 interface size too big.

    Illustrator CC 2014 interface size too big. There is no option to change it. Bug?

    But no matter what, there has been some sort of UI font size override introduced in CC2014 that is making the Adobeverse buzz with dissatisfaction. Just out of curiosity, I just checked, and ALL instances of Photoshop are now unable to modify UI font size.... Below is CC2014, which we know about:
    And here is CC2013 and CS5.1 exhibiting the SAME behavior:
    It's quite clear that ALL copies of Photoshop are now locked into the same "tiny" font setting, regardless of in-app settings.
    This is NOT related to Windows display settings (nor SHOULD it be), I can share additional screenshots later to show that, but my boss is getting upset that I have already had to waste this much time doing beta testing that HE is paying for.

  • Saving animated gif error - canvas size too big?

    Hi,
    i have been asked to create an animated gif which has a snow effect in the background. The animation runs pretty well using the pattern style to move the animated snow down. The problem is when I try to export the animation the save for web dialogue window freezes and I can't quit photoshop. I have tried to make the canvas (image size) smaller and it works.
    Is there a memory problem with creating animations in Photoshop if the document size is too big, im running a 3000x1000px at 72dpi
    TThe animation would be used on a web app, which a script could probably do a better job, but I need to try this first.
    thanks
    lister

    Something is very wrong here. The point behind using GIFs is that they are small and OK to put on a Web site.
    First thing: forget all about PPI - this has absolutely no relevance to Web/screen images; it is only used for printing. You need to think about the pixel size.
    So, how big in pixels are your starting images?
    How big do you want the resulting GIF to be? Again, you have to decide in pixels, as the viewing size will depend upon screen resolution of the person looking at it. You can use a notional PPI of 70-100 to guess how big it will be in inches, but that's all it is - a guess.
    Is this getting you going in the right direction?
    I cannot resist commenting that I hate almost all animated GIFs as they reduce Web site usability so much.

  • 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!

  • Safari Font Size Too BIG

    My daughter was on my computer and somehow changed the font size in safari and it is too big.  I've tried the command/shift/- and   and that is not changing the appearance (font is still too big).  Any other suggestions?  All webpages are affected.

    Figured it out (thanks prior poster)
    Go to Safari Preferences > Advanced.
    Then adjust the size of type to display as you like it.
    This one is set to 10, but you can up to 24 if you need to.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can't backup: Photo Library size too big

    Hey gang,
    I've got about 20 pictures on my phone but it keeps saying that I've got 1.4GB of data in iPhoto when I go in to manage my backups. How can I get it to display the accurate photo information. My phone will NOT Back up and I don't have anywhere near 1.4GB. It's like it's trying to FORCE me to upgrade my iCloud storage and it's unfair.
    Any input appreciated, thanks,
    Dan P.

    What version of iPhoto?

  • Photo sizes to big?

    I just created my own web-site with .mac and iweb. The picture I inserted in my welcome page, however, seems to be quite large because when I go to the web-site it takes a few seconds to load. Not much but enough to be annoying even though I have a fairly fast internet connection. When you drag and drop a photo from iphoto to iweb, does iweb automatically make it smaller in size for the web or do I have to do this manually.

    When you drag and
    drop a photo from iphoto to iweb, does iweb
    automatically make it smaller in size for the web or
    do I have to do this manually.
    Yes, iWeb does downscale the photo for you, but maybe not as much as you would like it. You can do a "Publish to Folder" and then go in there to see just what iWeb is doing to your images. I always recommend that people take the extra time to downscale their photos first before dropping them into iWeb. If you use an application like "Downsize" or even iPhoto, you can usually get your photos down to a smaller size than iWeb will on its own.
    You might also want to consider NEVER dragging in your original 5 megapixel photos to iWeb, too, because iWeb also has a nasty habit of keeping a copy of your 5 megapixel image (1-3mb!) AND uploading it to your iDisk along with the rest of your site files! This won't cause your websites to load slowly, but it will take longer to upload to begin with and the huge file just takes up space...not to mention it's there for the taking if someone knows where to look (say, if you are a professional photographer).

  • Book File Size too big?

    I bought a new Sony camera and I went out to do some tests.  I ended up shooting some great images (about 500) of a series that was screaming "BOOK".  So I decided to make my third book using LR4 (the other two were quite good, despite Lightroom's many limitations.)
    I imported the RAW files and started playing around with the layout and design.  Before i knew it, I had 189 pages with some 300 photos altogether.  I thought since Lightroom 'allowed' me to do it, then it must be OK, and some threads on the Blurb Forums and FAQs claim that there is no maximum file size.
    After I was done after about 30 hours of work, I hit the button SEND TO BLURB and something happened where the whole book disappeared.  Gone.  I didn't know where or how to repair it.  I didn't even know where Lightroom stores its data.   I finally resorted to my Time Machine Back up which took place about an hour earlier, and was able to rescue most of the book except for the last hour.  Anyway, after I was done re-doing all the lost work (I backed up the catalog) and then hit SEND TO BLURB again.
    LR started rendering, but hung at about page 125. I restarted about 6 times and LR would hang at different pages of the book.  I tried again this morning, and it finally rendered and started uploading, but I've gotten an Error message four times already after about 2 hours of "uploading" each time.  This has been going on since 11 am this morning (about ten hours ago) and I am very frustrated.  I've chatted with Blurb Support and talked with Adobe support and there was no solution.
    I imagine I have to convert all the files and redo the book all over again.  HOWEVER, I would like to know if there is a better workflow to do this the least painfully possible.
    IS THERE ANY WAY I CAN CONVERT THE FILES TO EITHER TIFF OR JPEG FROM WITHIN LR?  IF NOT, CAN I DO IT FROM PHOTOSHOP AND GIVE THEM THE SAME EXTENSION AS THE ORIGINAL RAW FILES to fool LR to think they're the same file?  I guess I can try it, but with all the crashing and losing the book the first time, I just want to see if anyone has any clever ideas..
    thanks..

    Have you opened the PDF file with Photoshop? If you do, you can then use photoshop to determine page size and dpi...every PDF file I opened was 300dpi which is what you want for Blurb. The page size is what it is, but I guess you could change that page by page in Photoshop (I don't know if you can even open a PDF in LR).
    Alternatively, since you have it in PDF format, there are other printers who will accept it - size issues may limit that, but you could probably work it out. For instance if you wanted it for some fairly casual use, the MagCloud site would print it on slightly larger paper than the blurb std portrait for about 1/2 of the price (but with fewer options ...no hard cover etc).
    Hope this helps

  • Adobe Media Encoder P2 File Size Too Big for Fat32

    Hi everyone,
    I'm working on a project that has to be delivered on an actual P2 card.
    I'm on a Mac running 10.9.1 using Media Encoder 7.2.2.29.
    My final files are ProRes files and I dropped them into Media Encoder and selected the P2 AVC-Intra 100 1080 option. I set the destination to a local drive and everything seemed to encode properly. I have a CONTENTS folder and all the required subfolders and MXF files. The problem is, when I went to copy the folder to the actual P2 card, Finder told me that some of the files "can't be copied because [they are] too large for the volume's format." And, indeed, looking at several of the video files in the Finder, they seem to max out at 4.29GB (4,294,971,924 bytes), which is 4,629 bytes larger than the FAT-32 size limit.
    I just now tried to encode directly to the P2 card and I got an error that was, ostensibly, a "Disk Full" error, but happened at right around where I would expect that 4GB limit to be.
    Is this something others have encountered? Is there a setting I missed? According to the P2 workflow PDF here, the folder structure AME creates "can be exported directly to a connected P2 card, or it can be exported to a selected drive and the folders and files copied over to the card."
    One possibility might be to split up the files into shorter videos, but I'm not sure how AME would handle ordering on the card.
    Thanks
    David

    I wanted to mention, in case anybody else has this issue, installing and using Media Encoder CS6 produces P2 MXF files that are the proper size. I filed a bug report, hopefully Adobe can get the CC version fixed.
