Resize pictures on pavilion windows 8.1

Can't seem to resize pictures I want to use as Desktop or Lock Screen pics. They come across as too huge for the display, and are cut off no matter what I change the graphics to.
Any suggestions on how to get NORMAL looking pictures on my laptop? Why doesn't it just adjust the pic when I choose it for the display?

Hi,
You can "Fill", "Fit" .... as shown:
Please
(a) right click a blank space on desktop,
(b) Select Personalize,
(c) Click Desktop background to select image
(d) Use one of above options
(e) Click Apply/Ok/Change .
Regards.

Abobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 resizing pictures?

Abobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 resizing pictures?
I just rencently got Photoshop Elements 5.0 and I have Windows XP service pack 2 and I read the help and did some things. I need to make some pictures smaller or bigger so the people I want in my banner look aroung the same size. When I try to resize the image it resiazes everything or I use the square tool and try to resize it my self but the pictures becomes out of shape. Also if I dont need all of my canvas that I created when I try to crop it t makes the pictures cut off. IS there a way to just get rid of the bottom od the canvas that I didn't do anything with? Here is a banner I made using photoshop and see the girls head is bigger cause I don't know how to resize it. http://i12.tinypic.com/2mcy245.jpg... I went to paint to cut off the extra canvas that was in the picture. I had used The Gimp before I used photoshop and with Gimp I knew how to resize pictures to place on another picture.
Additional Details
the crt + t makes my picture look bad. I guess I have to reseize myt pictures in gimp to make anything then.

while in the Transform tool, tick ON the "Constrain Proportions" tickbox at the top. then when you move a handle, the image will resize poprtionaltely instead of distorting.

Use of Java Swing +Applescript to move and resize Mac OS X windows using

Here is an interesting use of Java on Mac OS X and Applescript to
enable moving and resizing of windows using mouse and keyboard:
[MoveResize tool|http://code.google.com/p/sandipchitalesmacosxstuff/#Move_and_resize_windows_on_Mac_OS_X]
How it works:
The implementation uses Applescript to get the front most window and
it's bounds. It sends the bounds rectangle to a server implemented in
Java over a socket connection. The Java server takes the screen shot
of the full Desktop and uses it as the Image label (a JLabel with
ImageIcon) as the content pane of an undecorated JFrame which has the
same bounds as the Desktop. A JPanel with semitransparent background
and a dark rounded rectangular border is given the same bounds that
were received over the socket. This JPanel is added to the
PALETTE_LAYER of the JFrame's layered pane - which makes it appear
floating in front of the front window. A Mouse and a Key listener
added to the JPanel allow moving and resizing of the JPanel. When the
user types the ENTER key the JFrame is hidden and the new bounds of
the JPanel are sent back to the Applescript over the socket connection
which moves and resizes the front most window.
Enjoy!

Copy the /Home/Documents/ folder to the NAS drive. That drive needs to support AFP or you may run into filename problems and/or other file related problems due to filesystem differences.
Once the folder has been moved to the NAS select the folder on the NAS and CTRL- or RIGHT-click. Select Make Alias from the drop down menu. You should now have an alias named "Documents alias." On the Mac put the /Home/Documents/ folder in the Trash but don't delete it. Copy the alias file from the NAS to the /Home/ folder. Rename it to simply "Documents." Double-click on it to be sure it opens the folder on the NAS. If so you can empty the Trash. You're done.

I have an iPhone 4S. When I try to print pictures, from my Windows computer, it doesn't work. Open Office also gives me an "unknown graphic" message. These are JPEGs, aren't they? Why can't I print and what is the unknown graphic?

Firefox hangs and will not allow me to access other programs running when I resize a pop up window, move a pop up window, accidentally right click flash content.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== Not sure when it statrted

Hi.
When this happens, please press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC and see how much RAM and CPU Firefox is using. If they're sky high, then... Well, that kind of issues are, unfortunately, more common and the we'd like. Thankfully, 99% of the cases are very easy to solve. However, you do need to diagnose what your exact problem is. Do this:
#run Firefox in safe-mode to disable all extensions and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
#update all extensions and plugins in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#disable all extensions and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
#enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
#you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons.
Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
#do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
#disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix you issues with Firefox, proceed;
#check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't do it, I'm out of ideas. Except make sure you've followed my instructions correctly.

Photoshop Elements 12 no longer see's my scanner. So I cannot scan my pictures, help. Windows 8.1 with HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer. Scanner works with other programs in my PC. Problem is PS12

So I cannot scan my pictures, help. Windows 8.1 with HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer. Scanner works with other programs in my PC. Problem is PS12

I bought the Officejet 6500A Plus about one month and have experienced the very same problem. I tried to remedy this problem following suggestions in a number of different posts (static IP, router, firewalls etc), all to no avail. Last week I called support. The support I received by the tech over several hours and different days for a week was very good. However none of his suggestions corrected the connection issue. After today's recommended fix failed, he advised HP is aware of this issue with the 6500 and other affected printers. He claimed HP was working on a firmware upgrade. He did not know when the update would be provided. The tech also claimed HP acknowledged this problem in a written announcement. He agreed to email the announcement to me. I haven't received it. This has been the only problem I've had with the 6500

Where is the background picture for a window stored?

Greetings,
Where is the background picture for a window stored? What is the file called? I am trying to find the image used on a DVD.
Thanks

when you set a picture to be a background of some folder that picture is not moved from its original location. instead a record is made in the .DS_Store file of that folder indicating that this picture is the one to be used for the background. in case of the DVD it is likely sitting in some hidden folder right on the DVD.
run the following terminal command to enable showing hidden files in finder
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1; killall Finder
then look on the dvd and the picture should be there somewhere. if you still can't find it open the .DS_store file of the folder in question using Text Editor. a lot of this file will be unreadable but the picture path will be present in plain text.
when done rerun the above command after changing 1 to 0.

Resizing an Oracle Forms window.

Hi there,
I have a basic Forms Question. I am looking at the ability to resize the window for an Oracle Form. I understand that this requires modification to the Java code(in the JAR files). Can someone please let me know where I can make this change in the Forms. Which Jar files have to be modified for making this change ?
Thanks

height =600Hope this will help you

How to transfer pictures from computer ( Windows 7) to iPad with Retina display ?

How to transfer pictures from computer ( Windows 7) to iPad with Retina display ?

Note that, if you use iTunes to sync photos onto the iPad, you'll need to use iTunes to take them off.
if you don't have a lot and want to keep deletability, you may want to consider mailing them to yourself, or uploading them to something like dropbox, then downloading them (via the dropbox app) to your iPad.
there are also several photo syncing apps out there that may suit your needs. Afraid I don't have any to recommend. But syncing via iTunes isn't the only way to get photos onto your iPad..it's just the built in way
