Size of my pictures
I'm creating a Photo book. Therefor I need to reduce the size of my pictures, for this I use Lightroom. In the folder I see the size of the Pictures afterwards with around 700KB. Now I import them in the Book creator (myPIX.com) and get the Information that the size is to big, more than 25 Megapixel and that I should reduce the size.
What is wrong?
What do I have to change?
Who can help me?
Thanks a lot!.
3) Yes I export the pictures, settings: jpeg; color sRGB; Quality 60; size reduce to 700k // picture size 260 pixel/cm
Ignore the file size. This is so meaningless that it is a total waste of time to look at. The error message you received is talking about megapixels and not megabytes ... these are no the same, and one does not imply the other.
You want to look at the number of megapixels in the exported photo. Your export settings do not change the number of megapixels, so yes, you are getting very large images. You are getting photos that are 7360x4912 which is over 36 megapixels.
So, in the Export dialog box, you need to check "Resize to Fit" and then set the settings in Image Sizing so that the exported photo is less than 25 megapixels. For example if you set the height and width to half o the 7360x4912, you are all set.

How do I reduce the file size of my pictures
I am running out of space on my hard drive and notice that my iphoto library contains over 5000 pictures and is about 15GB. This is about 3MB per picture. I checked and lots are over 10MB. Most pictures I only print in 10x15, the largest i ever printed was A4 sized. I guess i don't need to keep such large files. These cameras are now set to make pictures with too many pixels I guess...
does anyone know of a way to reduce the size of all my picture files?
thanks
p1. Reducing the file sizes of your pictures will not just reduce their quality when you print, it wll also negatively affect their quality no matter how you view them. Remember the screen quality on your next mac will be better than this one, and even more so on the one after.
2. The simplest solution to a size issue is to store the Library on an external disk, You can do this with iTunes and iMovie too.
3. If you really want to reduce the quality of your photos then there is no way to do that in iPhoto. Here's what you'd have to do:
Export the Pics from iPhoto (File -> Export) and in the Export dialogue make your choices on Jpeg Quality (the amount of compression used) and size (the dimensions)
Delete the pics from iPhoto
Import the ones who have exported back to iPhoto.
Give away your camera and get a lower quality one

this is ridiculous! how do you keep the size of the picture for a contact in the address book that small? it is usually a piece of a lager picture... any way to make the size of the pictures the 224 KB they want? I always thought the application cropped the picture to fit their requirements...

Events are organised strictly on date and time, as read by iPhoto from the Exif data in the Photo. You cannot manually sort.
Create Albums. You can do much more organising with Albums, use Photos from different events, place them as you will. Best of all, Albums use no disk space at all. They simply reference the file on the Hard Disk. So a pic can be 1, 10 or 100 Albums with no wasted disk space whatever.

picture size...in putting together a book I can move photos onto a page and enlarge the picture but is there a way to reduce the picture size? some cases I want a smaller picture and if I change the size of the picture box I only get a portion of the image. I want to reduce the image to fit the size of the box.
If you right click on the image on the page in the context menu select photo box alignment and then select one of scale to fit {centered, Left-aligned, Right-aligned}
That should do what you are loking for. -
HT2523 how can i change the size of the picture i have copied and paste
how can i change the size of the picture i have copied and paste
If this question is about TextEdit, I don't think you can do it in TextEdit, after pasting the image. TextEdit is meant to be a basic text editing program.
You will have to open the image file in an image editing application. You can use Preview for doing this, or something more fancy. If it's Preview, just open the image file. From the menu bar, under Tools, select Adjust Size. Make the image the desired size. Then, select (outline) the portion of the image you want in the Preview document window. Copy it, and paste it into the TextEdit document window. -
I need to save some pictures from iPhoto to a SDHC photo card for a digital frame and was wondering if there is a way to shrink or compress file size for each picture as I have already cropped the pictures? Thank you
Yes, you do this when you export the images from the Library.
File -> Export
in the Size section, you don't need images larger than the frame size, so you can specify that and in the Jpeg Quality you can select the amount of compression used.

Is there a way to control the size of the pictures taken by iPhone?
The photos taken by iPhone are fairly large photos and require quite a bit of time for transfering when taking hundreds of photos. Is there any settings in iPhone that can control the size of the pictures being taken? Thanks
Sorry, no. You might try looking in the App store for a third-party app that provides this functionality, but such is not natively built into the iPhone.

Can't change size of a picture after trying to create an action, help!!!
Just tried to automate a batch and resize, and then save for web all of the pictures - it didn't work the way I wanted (probably recorded something wrong). But When I tried to rerecord the action - it became impossible to change size of the pictures. What's wrong? I already restarted my computer, but the function of size changing still isn't working.
If all you want to do is to resize your images for the web you do not have to record an action you can do that with the Image Processor script that ships with Photoshop. Menu File>Scripts>Image Processor. You can also have it include one of your actions when its processing your images. You can also select image in the bridge then use menu Tools>Photoshop>Image processor

Getting the size of a picture in pages...how?
is there a way to tell the size of a picture in a pages document? Something like get info?
The only way I have found to do this is to drag it's icon from inspector to a folder and then look at it in finder to see its size.
thanks
bobThis is a flaw in Pages IMHO.
As for many things the information and manipulating the properties is oblique to say the least.
You have to do what you have done or do some calculations based on size, and known resolution.
A way around might be to tag the image in the name with the actual pixel size.
I work from my images marked in folders as vLoRes, LoRes, MedRes, HiRes, vHiRes and uHiRes.
Given a basic requirement of a bare minimum 100 pixels/cm (roughly 254dpi) for commercial reproduction the images will cover (with bleed):
vLoRes = A7
LoRes = A6
MedRes = A5
HiRes = A4
vHiRes = A3
uHiRes = beyond A3
But then I happen to be very systematic in the way I work. It is a useful skill I have taught in my studios. Unfortunately many designers, and users in general, are sloppy and short sighted.

Is it possible to change the size of the Picture in Address Book
Hi, the contact pictures in the Address Book are way to small, is there the possibility to show them bigger??
Thanks
MacBook White 1,83 - 80GB HD - 2GB - EX-RSS Mac OS X (10.4.8)No, I don't think so. When you put a picture on the card you can control what part of the picture is used, but there is no control for the subsequent size.
You could try using OS X Feedback and ask them to change it in the next release ...

Change picture size when sending picture from I-phone 5 to HP Officejet Pro 8900
I just installed my new HP Officejet Pro 8900. So far every thing is working great except when I sent a picture from my I-phone 5, the picture printed the full size of the 8 1/2 x 11 page. Not only do I NOT want a picture that big but I do not want to go thru that much ink. How do I change the picture size to a 4 x 6 or 5 x 7?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as part of the reason I bought this printer was so I could e-print. I take and print a lot of pics from my phone, I was hoping to avoid having to e-mail pictures to computer in order to print.
Thanks for your help.Hi BFPadmin,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums.
You didn't say whether you were sending the picture from your iPhone using Apple's AirPrint feature or using HP's ePrint app. I have included a general document about printing from an Apple mobile device and it details the different ways to print to your HP printer. I have also included the FAQ documents for the HP's ePrint app and HP's Printer Remote App.

No "image size" option from pictures taken with front camera?
When e-mailing a picture taken with the rear camera, I am prompted to choose an "image size." However, this option does not come up for any photo taken with the front camera.
Is this a bug or how it is supposed to function, or am I doing something wrong?
"Prompt for email image resize" is enabled in Hub and under Display and Actions for every e-mail account. I have 10.3.1.841 on the Classic.I understand what you are trying to say, however I'm not sure you understand what others have been trying to tell you.
Yes, the iPhone comes with a camera, and it comes with a standard camera application. This is a resident Apple application. You downloaded a new camera "application", not a new camera. This is a 3rd party application that uses the installed camera to operate. When trying to use Facebook, another 3rd party application, and you want to take a picture, it uses the Apple camera interface, because it cannot interact with another 3rd party application. In other words, as many have said, two third party applications cannot run together, or interact together, i.e. Facebook and your camera application.
Does that make sense now? While you can use the downloaded application to take pictures versus the Apple camera application, you cannot change the API for another application to use another 3rd party application for a task. I hopw this explanation works for you.
