What is the ideal size and resolution of a photo for display on the iPad?

I'm finding no info on the size of a photo for the best possible display on the iPad. The screen is obviously much larger than iPod Touch or iPhone; photos sized for them are fuzzy on the iPad. Ideally, a photo should be sized for the exact number of pixels on the iPad screen. Can anyone help me here? Thanks!

This is done automatically via the iTunes sync/transfer process - photos are optimized for viewing on the iPad, and there is not an option to change the default optimization settings.

What is the best actual size and resolution to save photos to put on your iPhone?

What is the best actual size and resolution to save photos to be easily viewed on IPhone?

Sorry, this is my first use of this support site. I didn't realize that it was only for technical questions. I am not the one who loses his iPhone, but I just wanted to provide some help to our family member who does. He is usually a very responsible person, but he has lost his phone more than once.

Best Size and Resolution to Scan Photos?

Hi, I need to create a photo slide show in iMovie. I would do it iPhoto but I need to able to time my music and add intermittent titles so I guess I'll need to use iMovie. I'm very new to iMovie and actually am used to editing on Avid and Media 100 (which I no longer have access to) so I'm a little scared! So, my question is - when I scan my photos what is the best size and resolution to scan them at for the best final results? It will be viewed on a TV from a DVD. Any other tips for a newbie also appreciated. Thanks so much! -Julie
p.s. I'm using iMovie HD but I'm on a G4 so don't have HD capabilites. Not sure if that matters.

Hi Julie: Look here:

No, that doesn't matter at all.

How do you change the image size and resolution in photoshop everytime I change the width the height changes my measurements will not stay

Can someone assist me with changing image size and resolution. each time I change the width the height changes and vice/versa?

There's a chain link between width and height. The point is to keep the aspect ratio the same, otherwise your picture would get stretched.
You click on the chain-link to shut that off and you can adjust width and height separately.
Also could you give us your version of Photoshop, what OS you are running it on (Windows 7 for example) and what exactly you want to do with your document?
Resolution is the print term for how many pixels will be printed on an inch of paper. It doesn't apply if your image is intended for screen viewing.

What preference controls Screen Size and Resolution

After many months of good behavior, my MacBook Pro is back mirroring video to a phantom VGA monitor every time I wake it up. This mangles the view of my actual laptop screen since the phantom is 800x600. I can get rid of it by clicking Detect Montiors, but it takes between 10 and 20 tries for this to work. I am presuming that a particular preference file controls this behavior, so perhaps if I trash that pref, things will go back to behaving normally. I could not find a pref file for displays. Any ideas?

Resetting PRAM and NVRAM has no effect on this problem. Removing the com.apple.systempreferences.plist seems to have done it. The problem is somewhat intermittent, so I will report back in a week if it looks like it solved the problem completely.

You have to create a NEW account using the instructions in Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card using an email address you had not previously used with Apple?
You have to.

Adjusting size and resolution question!

I'm trying to adjust size/resolution of a collage that I created so that it will look good when printed on a 20 X 30 canvas. How do I know the proper size and resolution to change it to?

We don't even know what program you are referring to, so it will be impossible to advise. In any case, usage questions are best asked in the product specific forums.

Firefox mage quality and resolution was superb when I used XP and Vista. Now that I have Windows 7, however (with the Firefox 3.6.3 version), the image quality and resolution is poor. Please help me!

I am using the Firefox 3.6.3 version with my new Windows 7 operating system. When I used all the previous Firefox versions in my XP and Vista operating systems, image quality and resolution was excellent! However, now that I have upgraded to Windows 7 and Firefox 3.6.3, the image quality and resolution is poor (unacceptable for downloading purposes).
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I first activated my new computer and installed the Firefox 3.6.3.

All my images are pixelated in firefox 3.6.3

Not only on my site but on most sites I view.
The issue is not solved by resetting the zoom text view (ctrl+0)
The issue is not resolved by starting in safemode with add-ons disabled
The problem seems to only affect .jpeg files and only on Windows 7 on my desktop; as I have viewed several sites using windows XP with my laptop, no issues.
I had the same issue with IE8 and was able to fix the problem with by setting up the compatibility view for all sites. Issue fixed no problems at all. But nothing similar for firefox?
Whats the deal?

Image size and resolution question.

Is an image at W 48.667 x H 32.444 inches at 72 res the same as an image that I could convert in photoshop to 300 res and then the with "Resample Image" clicked off would be W 11.68 x H 7.78 at 300 res for printing purposes? I'm asking this questions because after exporting 200 images from Lightroom 1.4, putting them into an wedding album I realized the images were not at 300 res but the first size listed above. I'm trying not to have to rebatch and have to put them back into the album. I sent the question to NAPP and got this back"
"If you do the math you'll see that the answer is "no."
48x72=3456 pixels; 32x72=2304 pixels
11.68x300=3504 pixels; 7.78x300=2334 pixels."
I did the math and it comes up to 5760 vs 5830. Pretty darn close. So would an image printed out with both settings print the about the same quality or am I missing something?
Thanks
Bob

Bob's question is a common one. And one of the first that most of us struggled to understand. Let's see if I can shed some light to help clarify the matter.
o The image starts out with a given number of pixels from the camera, scanner, or whatever was its source. The resolution only matters when it comes time to print the image.
72 dpi was once a common resolution for displaying on a computer monitor. Today 90 dpi is more common monitor resolution.
o Let's assume that the image is 3504 x 2336 pixels (which I got from his size @ 72 dpi).
o In "image size", if you do _not_ have 'resample image' checked, all you are doing is _rescaling the image. The image resolution is whatever you enter ...
For example, if you enter 360 dpi -- the native printing resolution of many Epson printers -- you get a print size of 9.733 x 6.489 inches
o Let's say you want to print this image at 360 dpi in portrait on 13 x 19 inch paper with a one inch border on the sides. That would make the short dimension of the image 11 inches and the long would work out to 16.5.
To do that you need to _resample_ the image to change the size. More pixels will be made. The resolution stays at 360 dpi. So check the 'resample image' box.
After resampling to get the print size and resolution you want, the pixel dimension goes to 5960 x 3960 (from 3504 x 2336). Those new pixels came at a price, but that is a matter for another thread and a lot of personal bias.
Hope that helped.
P.S. The answer to your question, Bob, is yes. With resample off in PhotoShop, your original images should have gone to 11.68 x 7.787 inches @300 dpi.
In looking at the rest of your original post, it seems that the export didn't work the way that you wanted. Do I read right that the images turned out to be 11.68 x 7.787 @ 72 dpi? Can't help with that as I don't do Lightroom.

Original Size and Resolution (How do I access that file)

If you go to your photo album and click 'veiw larger image' you receive this message:
Note: This picture may be displayed smaller than the actual picture size. The original uploaded image size and resolution are preserved in your account.
The same question was posted with a solution to send the photo to your e-mail account. The does not resolve my problem. I should be able to access the original size and resolution here, online, in my account.

You should be able to sign in to your account with Adobe to retrieve the serial number. Then download version 7 from here:
Download Photoshop Elements products | 9, 8, 7
Worst case option:
Download the trial version of Photoshop Elements 13:
Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
and save it as a tiff or jpeg and you can open it with any photo viewer.
You may even find that you want to buy the latest version.

John, are there already differences? I thought 13.1 was mainly about retina display support, but I guess there would also be other fixes released while they were at it.
Yes, definitely already differences. I sympathize with Photoshop instructors (online and offline).
The headline change was Retina support but that was also made available to non-Cloud versions.
Other Cloud-only changes in 13.1 are listed here

What's the maximum size a varchar2 variable can hold for and NDS Stmnt?

What's the maximum size a varchar2 variable can hold for and NDS Statement? I read that NDS is good for doing EXECUTE IMMEDIATE on statements that aren't too big. The 10g PL/SQL manual recommends using DBMS_SQL for statements that are too large, but it never gave a limit for what too large was. Does anyone know offhand?

The limit is the same as the length of varchar2 variable within PL/SQL - that is varchar2(32767).It's not documented, but intermediate concatenation result can hold up to (64k-1) :
Connected to:
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - Production
declare
part1 varchar2(32767) := rpad('begin null;', 32767);
part2 varchar2(32767) := lpad('end;', 32767);
begin
dbms_output.put_line(length(part1 || ' ' || /*' ' ||*/ part2));
execute immediate part1 || ' ' || part2;
end;
