Trouble placing photos in project--much too large for document

No matter what sort of photo file I try to place in a project, including the "Assets" provided with the InDesign tutorial, they are all huge and the quality of the photo is terrible (when the original is high quality). I am looking for something as easy as the Mac creations in iPhoto, where you can easily drop photos into a template without having to re-size. Is that possible in InDesign or will I need to use another application/software? I would be hugely grateful for any thoughts, as I need to do a multi-page accordion brochure for my new company.

Hi Penyrheol,
In the videos, the presenter drags a rectangle to place/constrain the artwork to the specified size. If you did not drag a frame, but clicked instead--it will drop the large-scaled art on the page. Watch at 00:35, 1:08, and 1:13.
The only art asset he places by clicking is the last one of the set, the logo. Hope this helps!
Best,
Rita Amladi

How to backup an iMovie project that is too large for the dvd?

This may be obvious, and it was probably answered elsewhere, but I'm trying to clean off my hard drive by saving my iMovie projects to two sets of dvds (one for home and one set for safekeeping at work). When saving one project as an archive, it just says this project is too large for a disc. Is it possible to stuff it as a .sitx file and then save that onto dvd? Is there a better solution than an external hard drive (which I've had a couple of fail on me).

DVD's can only hold about 4.7 GB's of DV Stream format (the format used by iMovie).
DV Stream is 13 GB's per hour of recording so it would take 3 DVD's to "store" your data for a one hour capture.
"Export" (back to tape) or use iDVD to "burn" an MPEG-2 version of your file.
Only the "tape" version would not require some type of conversion on import.

PSE 6 slide show photos too large for TV screen

I have been collecting, scanning and saving family photos for over a year to create a slide show for my 81 yr. old Dad. I create a slide show with PSE 6, save to a CD and play on the TV. No matter what pixel size I resize the photos to they are still too large for the TV screen - not just one TV screen but different ones I try. I loose heads at the top, feet at the bottom, people on the sides. I have been researching but have not found the answer to solve my problem. Anyone have the answer or some suggestions I would be very appreciative. Thanks.

Well, first of all, choose the right resolution and frame-rate...
Are you working in NTSC (30 fps), or PAL (25 fps)...?
Use one of the common DV formats /
if you choose HD, 1080i, then your TV must be able to recognize that format,
otherwise images get cut off...
Format Rectangular Size Square Size
DV NTSC................................................720x480.............................. ...720x540
DV PAL...................................................720x576............................ .....768x576
HDV 720p..................................................NA................................. ....1280x720
HDV 1080i.................................................NA................................. ....1920x1080
Stay with your chosen format through-out your whole project...
(PNG, TIFF or PSD), import those files into your video editor.
Depending on the Operational System (Mac or Windows), one has many choices...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_editing_software
After editing, import those files into your chosen Authoring software for burning,
they will take care of the appropriate compression.
(I would recommend burning to DVD, not CD, one will achieve much better quality...

Bypass "Project Too Large" for iMovie YouTube Publishing?

Hello,
When attempting to upload a YouTube video over 10 minutes using iMovie, it will not allow me saying that the Project is too large and must be under 10 minutes. The thing is, I am able to upload video over 10 minutes because I signed up to YouTube when they allowed over 10 minute videos. I can still upload the videos if I do it manually but I wish there was a way to bypass this in iMovie. Any tips or suggestions besides telling me to do it manually?
Thanks.

Hi y'all,
I am having a simlar issue with iMovie for iPad.
My files are way to big to export.
The fileis is 2.4GB and I can only export 500MB to Vimeo.
It's 63 mins and I can only export 15 mins to youtube!
I recorded a video diary and have clipped the file/project in the original project/timeline in to day recordings. I have been unable to find a way to export those individual clips (day recordings) in to separate folders. I was hoping I could export individual clips in to sepearate folders then export them.
I hope this makes sense?
If it does please let me know if this possible with imovie for iPad?
Thank you!

I am having trouble with a video. I have tried to copy it to a flash drive because it is too big to fit on a DVD, it says it is too large for the volumes format. Please advise.

I have done many DVD's for seniors for graduation so I am familier with Imovie. I have just finished a projec that is a combination of video, music and stills. I shared it through idvd. Now I can't burn it to a dvd because it is too large. It is too big even for a two sided disk. I have researched it and i find that blue ray would be big enough. Does apple offer blue ray burner? if so, what is the cost? I tried another route and took my external hard drive to copy it to a PC. there computer wouldn't recongize my drive. I am assuming it is because it is formated for apple. I tired copying it to a flash drive and and it says that it can't be copied because it is too large for the volume's format. Suggestions? PLEASE!!!!!

Could the video be too big because of using too high a resolution? 480p is sufficient for a DVD. the thread at:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5868958?tstart=30
may be of help.
Apple does not support Blue ray - you have to use a thrid party application like Toast.
To transfer the video to a PC you need a FAT-formatted hard drive (or of course a sufficiently big memory stick).
You could also go via a network, via the cloud (eg Dropbox) or with 'Wetransfer" or similar.

Page header plus page footer too large for the page in crystal report 2008.

Hi,
when we selecting pieview and print after entering paramter it's showing error: page header plus page footer too large for the page. error in File.rpt page header or page footer loanger than page. and it's not showing print layout format if i connect another printer it's showing layout designe. and some times it's showing letter formate and if i give print it's taking default lamdscape but we setup defual setup for printer 10*12 inches in particular printer.please guide me how we can solve this issues.
regds,

This is a really hard post to read. See if you can take a bit of time to reword it, but one thing I do understand is that you are getting this error:
page header plus page footer too large for the page.
Typically, you can trust that if the error is thrown, it is true. E.g.; this is not one of those errors that says one thing, and means another. I suspect that you have some field(s) in the header(s) that grow, depending on the data. If there is too much data or the data is too long ( a text for example), the error will be thrown. To resolve this, see if placing the field(s) into a group footer / header will help.

Time Machine backs up one MacBook, but "backup is too large" for second

We have two MacBooks running OS 10.5.8 and both are connected wirelessly to Time Capsule. My daughter's laptop backs up fine. But my wife's laptop fails. It backed up one time when I first installed it, but never since. The error message I get is that the backup is too large for the backup volume -- 71.8 GB required but only 7.4 GB available.
My daughter's machine has a lot of photos and iTunes files on it, so it shows 141 out of 150 GBs are used up. The Time Capsule, which I understood to have 1 TB actually shows only 7.4 GB out of 463 GB are available.
And actually, when I try to manually run Time Machine on my wife's machine I get the really long Preparing message, and then the Time Machine Error message about not enough volume.
Should a machine with 150 GB capacity really be taking so much space on Time Capsule, and why the difference between the 1 TB advertised capacity and the <500GB of memory that actually appears to be there?
Does any of this suggest I need to restore the external or internal drives?

Does it make sense that it's trying to back up about 60 GB (Time Machine adds 20% for temporary workspace) from that Mac?
If so, see if it has the +Warn when old backups are deleted+ box checked in Time Machine Preferences > Options.
Click the Time Capsule in a Finder sidebar. If the Finder is in +Column View,+ you should see something like this:

except there should be two +sparse bundles+ listed in the third column. Right-click each one in turn, select +Get Info,+ and see what's shown for Size. Report back with the numbers. Also tell us if you have any other data on your TC, besides the 2 Mac's backups.

That sounds like it's doing a "deep traversal," perhaps after a long time since the last backup, where it has to compare everything on the Mac to the backups, to figure out what needs to be backed-up.
Should a machine with 150 GB capacity really be taking so much space on Time Capsule
Sure. Time Machine will use up all the space available to it, then begin deleting the oldest backup(s) when it needs room for new ones.
and why the difference between the 1 TB advertised capacity and the <500GB of memory that actually appears to be there?</div>
It does sound like you have a 500 GB Time Capsule. The original ones were 500 GB; I'm not sure when the 1 TB version came out, and now you can get them with 2 TB. How old is it, and why do you think it's a 1 TB model?

HT3275 Message: This backup is too large for the backup volume?

Time Machine no longer backs up. I keep getting this message (This backup is too large for the backup volume) though I have excluded and deleted a huge number of documents, photos, etc. Help! Help!

Eunice19 wrote:

Do you have the Warn when old backups are deleted box checked in Time Machine Preferences > Options? If so, just remove the check and run another backup. Then Time Machine will delete your oldest backup(s) to make room for the new one.
If not, see #C4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting, probably the pink box there. If that doesn't clear it up, post back with the amount of data being backed-up (ie, how much is on your internal HD and any others being backed-up), how large your backupd drive is, and whether there's anything else on it (if so, how much?).
A screenprint of the message might help, too.

SQL Error: ORA-12899: value too large for column

Hi,
I'm trying to understand the above error. It occurs when we are migrating data from one oracle database to another:
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-12899: value too large for column "USER_XYZ"."TAB_XYZ"."COL_XYZ" (actual: 10, maximum: 8)
12899. 00000 - "value too large for column %s (actual: %s, maximum: %s)"
*Cause:    An attempt was made to insert or update a column with a value
which is too wide for the width of the destination column.
The name of the column is given, along with the actual width
of the value, and the maximum allowed width of the column.
Note that widths are reported in characters if character length
semantics are in effect for the column, otherwise widths are
reported in bytes.
*Action:   Examine the SQL statement for correctness. Check source
and destination column data types.
Either make the destination column wider, or use a subset
of the source column (i.e. use substring).
The source database runs - Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
The target database runs - Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
The source and target table are identical and the column definitions are exactly the same. The column we get the error on is of CHAR(8). To migrate the data we use either a dblink or oracle datapump, both result in the same error. The data in the column is a fixed length string of 8 characters.
To resolve the error the column "COL_XYZ" gets widened by:
alter table TAB_XYZ modify (COL_XYZ varchar2(10));
-alter table TAB_XYZ succeeded.
We now move the data from the source into the target table without problem and then run:
select max(length(COL_XYZ)) from TAB_XYZ;
-8
So the maximal string length for this column is 8 characters. To reduce the column width back to its original 8, we then run:
alter table TAB_XYZ modify (COL_XYZ varchar2(8));
-Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01441: cannot decrease column length because some value is too big
01441. 00000 - "cannot decrease column length because some value is too big"
*Cause:
*Action:
So we leave the column width at 10, but the curious thing is - once we have the data in the target table, we can then truncate the same table at source (ie. get rid of all the data) and move the data back in the original table (with COL_XYZ set at CHAR(8)) - without any issue.
My guess the error has something to do with the storage on the target database, but I would like to understand why. If anybody has an idea or suggestion what to look for - much appreciated.
Cheers.

OS10.3.1 a disaster! Among other things, the dsplay is too large for screen

I do not like OS 10.3 ! After my Z10 was updated to 10.3.1.1779 about a month ago, I access it because the password entry keyboard displayed for about 1/10 sec leaving a black screen.
After a device reset the device the keyboard remained visible but did not respond to touches (actually it did respond randomly to some). Finally another reset gave me a usable keyboard.
But the device always opens with an icon display about 20% too large for my screen and requires several shrink attempts before the proper size displays. Each attempt simply bounces back to the oversize state.
Unfortunately, this also happens with every app (including "Settings") opened. Yesterday, I couldn't return to the main of Settings because the sub-page wouldn't shrink to expose the "<' button - a close and re-open was the only way to get back to the main page.
Other points I hate about the OS: I've noticed my active wallpaper (not custom but from 10.2) is not listed in the the new 10.3 wallpaper list and since I don't know where its stored I can't try one of the newer ones without giving up on the present wallpaper.
The date displayed on the home screen is too faint to be read with my wallpaper. I know there are some people who think black on black is cool; they obviously have great eyesight. The new 10.3 compass is now totally useless and the new clock is not much better but is at least still usable by a change to a digital display.
I recently tried to check the time on a sunny afternoon and gave up because I couldn't make out the white lines on the black background. I find the stupidity of black on black unfathomable and in over 40 years of software development I have never seen something as wasteful of engineering time as products with poor user interfaces (i.e. black on black). Why can't these apps offer the user the ability to change the colour?
The calculator has also regressed. Again all black (cool!), though that's not the issue here. For the longest time I thought it no longer supported scientific operations until I accidentally got a lucky swipe to bring it into view.
However, the requirement of a half-dozen swipe attempts for each display change reduces this app to a space waster or only to be only useful for simple operations and units conversion. I'm going to try a reload of the OS but unfortunately that won't improve the apps.
Is this standard procedure that Blackberry destroys all (blackberry) apps of the previous version with new ones at each update and offers no way to get back or protect against such changes?

I don't understand when AR open item amount is USD 100.3, and incoming payment 101.12, The system can auto clearing by current configuration, but change the AR open item amount to USD 0.3 and change incoming payment amount to 1.12, The system alert error message "The difference is too large for clearing". The same system configuration and the same "Not assigned" value in choosing open item screen, but produce different results!
How should i change the configuration?

Error: "This backup is too large for the backup volume."

Well TM is acting up. I get an error that reads:
"This backup is too large for the backup volume."
Both the internal boot disk and the external baclup drive are 1TB. The internal one has a two partitions, the OSX one that is 900GBs and a 32GB NTFS one for Boot Camp.
The external drive is a single OSX Extended part. that is 932GBs.
Both the Time Machine disk, and the Boot Camp disk are excluded from the backup along with a "Crap" folder for temporary large files as well as the EyeTV temp folder.
Time Machine says it needs 938GBs to backup only the OSX disk, which has 806GBs in use with the rest free. WTFFF? The TM pane says that "only" 782GBs are going to be backed up. Where did the 938GBs figure come from?
This happened after moving a large folder (128GB in total) from the root of the OSX disk over to my Home Folder.
I have reformated the Time Machine drive and have no backups at all of my data and it refuses to backup!!
Why would it need 938GBs of space to backup if the disk has "only" 806 GBs in use??? Is there anyway to reset Time Machine completely???

TM makes an initial "estimate" of how much space it needs, "including padding", that is often quite high. Why that is, and Just exactly what it means by "padding" are rather mysterious. But it does also need work space on any drive, including your TM drive.
But beyond that, your TM disk really is too small for what you're backing-up. The general "rule of thumb" is it should be 2-3 times the size of what it's backing-up, but it really depends on how you use your Mac. If you frequently update lots of large files, even 3 times may not be enough. If you're a light user, you might get by with 1.5 times. But that's about the lower limit.
Note that although it does skip a few system caches, work files, etc., by default it backs up everything else, and does not do any compression.
All this is because TM is designed to manage it's backups and space for you. Once it's initial, full backup is done, it will by default then back-up any changes hourly. It only keeps those hourly backups for 24 hours, but converts the first of the day to a "daily" backup, which it keeps for a month. After a month, it converts one per week into a "weekly" backup that it will keep for as long as it has room
What you're up against is, room for those 30 dailies and up to 24 hourlies.
You might be able to get it to work, sort of, temporarily, by excluding something large, like your home folder, until that first full backup completes, then remove the exclusion for the next run. But pretty soon, it will begin to fail again, and you'll have to delete backups manually (from the TM interface, not via the Finder).
Longer term, you need a bigger disk; or exclude some large items (back-them up to a portable external or even DVD/RWs first); or a different strategy.
You might want to investigate CarbonCopyCloner, SuperDuper!, and other apps that can be used to make bootable "clones". Their advantage, beyond needing less room, is when your HD fails, you can immediately boot and run from the clone, rather than waiting to restore from TM to your repaired or replaced HD.
Their disadvantages are, you don't have the previous versions of changed or deleted files, and because of the way they work, their "incremental" backups of changed items take much longer and far more CPU.
Many of us use both a "clone" (I use CCC) and TM. On my small (roughly 30 gb) system, the difference is dramatic: I rarely notice TM's hourly backups -- they usually run under 30 seconds; CCC takes at least 15 minutes and most of my CPU.

"Backup is too large for the backup volume" error

I've been backing up with TM for a while now, and finally it seems as though the hard drive is full, since I'm down to 4.2GB available of 114.4GB.
Whenever TM tries to do a backup, it gives me the error "This backup is too large for the backup volume. The backup requires 10.8 GB but only 4.2GB are available. To select a larger volume, or make the backup smaller by excluding files, open System Preferences and choose Time Machine."
I understand that I have those two options, but why can't TM just erase the oldest backup and use that free space to make the new backup? I know a 120GB drive is pretty small, but if I have to just keep accumulating backups infinitely, I'm afraid I'll end up with 10 years of backups and a 890-zettabyte drive taking up my garage. I'm hoping there's a more practical solution.

John,
Please review the following article as it might explain what you are encountering.
*_“This Backup is Too Large for the Backup Volume”_*
First, much depends on the size of your Mac’s internal hard disk, the quantity of data it contains, and the size of the hard disk designated for Time Machine backups. It is recommended that any hard disk designated for Time Machine backups be +at least+ twice as large as the hard disk it is backing up from. You see, the more space it has to grow, the greater the history it can preserve.
*Disk Management*
Time Machine is designed to use the space it is given as economically as possible. When backups reach the limit of expansion, Time Machine will begin to delete old backups to make way for newer data. The less space you provide for backups the sooner older data will be discarded. [http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/15137.html]
However, Time Machine will only delete what it considers “expired”. Within the Console Logs this process is referred to as “thinning”. It appears that many of these “expired” backups are deleted when hourly backups are consolidated into daily backups and daily backups are consolidated into weekly backups. This consolidation takes place once hourly backups reach 24 hours old and daily backups reach about 30 days old. Weekly backups will only be deleted, or ‘thinned’, once the backup drive nears full capacity.
One thing seems for sure, though; If a new incremental backup happens to be larger than what Time Machine currently considers “expired” then you will get the message “This backup is too large for the backup volume.” In other words, Time Machine believes it would have to sacrifice to much to accommodate the latest incremental backup. This is probably why Time Machine always overestimates incremental backups by 2 to 10 times the actual size of the data currently being backed up. Within the Console logs this is referred to as “padding”. This is so that backup files never actually reach the physically limits of the backup disk itself.
*Recovering Backup Space*
If you have discovered that large unwanted files have been backed up, you can use the Time Machine “time travel” interface to recovered some of that space. Do NOT, however, delete files from a Time Machine backup disk by manually mounting the disk and dragging files to the trash. You can damage or destroy your original backups by this means.
Additionally, deleting files you no longer wish to keep on your Mac does not immediately remove such files from Time Machine backups. Once data has been removed from your Macs' hard disk it will remain in backups for some time until Time Machine determines that it has "expired". That's one of its’ benefits - it retains data you may have unintentionally deleted. But eventually that data is expunged. If, however, you need to remove backed up files immediately, do this:
Launch Time Machine from the Dock icon.
Initially, you are presented with a window labeled “Today (Now)”. This window represents the state of your Mac as it exists now. +DO NOT+ delete or make changes to files while you see “Today (Now)” at the bottom of the screen. Otherwise, you will be deleting files that exist "today" - not yesterday or last week.
Click on the window just behind “Today (Now)”. This represents the last successful backup and should display the date and time of this backup at the bottom of the screen.
Now, navigate to where the unwanted file resides. If it has been some time since you deleted the file from your Mac, you may need to go farther back in time to see the unwanted file. In that case, use the time scale on the right to choose a date prior to when you actually deleted the file from your Mac.
Highlight the file and click the Actions menu (Gear icon) from the toolbar.
Select “Delete all backups of <this file>”.
*Full Backup After Restore*
If you are running out of disk space sooner than expected it may be that Time Machine is ignoring previous backups and is trying to perform another full backup of your system? This will happen if you have reinstalled the System Software (Mac OS), or replaced your computer with a new one, or hard significant repair work done on your exisitng Mac. Time Machine will perform a new full backup. This is normal. [http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1338]
You have several options if Time Machine is unable to perform the new full backup:
A. Delete the old backups, and let Time Machine begin a fresh.
B. Attach another external hard disk and begin backups there, while keeping this current hard disk. After you are satisfied with the new backup set, you can later reformat the old hard disk and use it for other storage.
C. Ctrl-Click the Time Machine Dock icon and select "Browse Other Time Machine disks...". Then select the old backup set. Navigate to files/folders you don't really need backups of and go up to the Action menu ("Gear" icon) and select "Delete all backups of this file." If you delete enough useless stuff, you may be able to free up enough space for the new backup to take place. However, this method is not assured as it may not free up enough "contiguous space" for the new backup to take place.
*Outgrown Your Backup Disk?*
On the other hand, your computers drive contents may very well have outgrown the capacity of the Time Machine backup disk. It may be time to purchase a larger capacity hard drive for Time Machine backups. Alternatively, you can begin using the Time Machine Preferences exclusion list to prevent Time Machine from backing up unneeded files/folders.
Consider as well: Do you really need ALL that data on your primary hard disk? It sounds like you might need to Archive to a different hard disk anything that's is not of immediate importance. You see, Time Machine is not designed for archiving purposes, just as a backup of your local drive(s). In the event of disaster, it can get your system back to its' current state without having to reinstall everything. But if you need LONG TERM storage, then you need another drive that is removed from your normal everyday working environment.
This KB article discusses this scenario with some suggestions including Archiving the old backups and starting fresh [http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/15137.html]
Let us know if this clarifies things.
Cheers!

HT3275 The back up is too large for the back up disk

I've been using an external hard drive (not a time capsule) through time machine since April of last year. It's been great backing up all of my info. BUT all of the sudden a message appears saying: Time Machine could not complete the back up: This backup is too large for the backup disk. I thought, when time machine ran out of room it was suppose to erase the oldest backup to replace it with the current one, but that appears not to be happening. Also, where as I once had all of my backups on the disk, I now only have one from about a month ago and Time Machine will not replace it with the backup I need to make currently. I tried to create space on the disk by "Deleting all backups from this time machine" and by dragging the items from the finder window to trash- Neither of these things worked to erase the old back up and/or create space on my external drive for the backup I wish to make currently... does anyone have any answers or advice????

Where I am confused is that... prior to this month. I've backed up my Macbook repeatedly on this same external hard drive since last April. Until recently I knotied that TM kept several old backups from different dates (as per the design). Then when I started having trouble recently, I realized there is now only one previous backup. DId my backups become larger to the point that instead of several there is now only room for one at a time?
Check what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in TM Prefs > Options.
Most likely, something very large was added or changed, and had to be backed-up.
It's also possible that your backups were failing for the last month, leaving many partial backups (TM cleans them up, but only after one completes successfully).
A clue may be lurking in your logs. Use the widget in #A1 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting to display the backup messages from your logs. Look back as far as it will let you (probably only a couple of days) and see what's there. Most of the messages are fairly clear, so you might be able to figure out what happened. If in doubt, copy and post all the messages from a representative backup here.

Images too large for Drop zone in Template

Is there a way I can resize images I want to use after I drop it in a drop zone? For some reason, all my images are too large for the drop zones - even after making smaller in photoshop.
Thanks!

I'm fairly new to DVD SP too and wondering the same thing.
Shouldn't we be able to edit the image mask?
It's kinda worthless to just accept what DVDSP decides to do with the photo.
