What resolution are photos optimized for ipod display? (post computer sync)

From what I've read here, iPod touch forces photos sync'ed from a computer through a optimization step for display on the iPod (and TV). Full-resolution images can only be stored on iPods that have "enable disc use" mode (which iPod touch does not have), and even that mode on older iPods could not be viewed/displayed on the iPod itself.
Just curious...
1) what resolution finally ends up on the iPod side (not sure if it is the same as older iPods)
2) if the zooming feature on the touch goes beyond the optimized photo resolution to the point of interpolation to fill in the blanks
Thank you ahead of time for your insight.

Anyone know?

What resolution are ipad photos? The ones you take with the iPad itself.

i'm trying to find out at what resolution ipad photos taken on the iPad are stored at. When I send them to myself and choose the largest size possible on the email, they are only 72 dpi. I thought there was an option for 300 dpi?
THanks!

I have a fourth generation iPad...I tried both email and direct download. The photos are largish - 26 inches in width but the dpi is 72. As far as I can tell, that' sustain how it is, I can't seem to find any solid info on it. Thanks for trying, I appreciate it

After target display mode, iPhoto reports an error, "The current screen resolution is not optimal for iPhoto."

I have the 27-inch (late 2009) iMac with mini-Display port input. Whenever I return from Target Display Mode, I get the attached error message and iPhoto becomes unresponsive (the window is still active, but clicking on it produces the error/warning system sound), I have to Force Quit it. The current screen resolution is not optimal for iPhoto (sometimes the error message is a little off the screen in the lower left and only the top of the window can be seen. This also seems to affect iTunes at the same time (by resizing the window to be super small), but without the error message or unresponsiveness.
Has anyone else gotten this problem, and or might know of a fix?

Yes, I have the same problem. I have checked the resolution in Sysyem Preferences - display and it is properly set to the highest resolution (which is recommended). I have no idea why this is ocurring but it is annoying.

What Resolution are you running your MBP-R at?

I got mine last Tuesday, I "Listened" to the fact that Apple has a "retina optimized' setting, right in the middle. While Safari looks amazing at that setting, Firefox, safari, word and excel while looking VERY good are not as sharp. Since then, I kept upping the resolution, now at the max, 1920 x 1200. The non-optimized programs seem a LOT sharper, and life is good! (Plus, I have oodles more screen real-estate. I am 62 and prolly not the sharpest eyes, so wondering what others are finding works for them?

Hi Bruce,
Everyones eyes are different, use what you like best. The retina display is awesome, and I find myelf changing the res. to fit a particular application, if I will be using it for a while., ei. flight sim, CAD, regular Apple stuff...
I say just enjoy what is best for you.

When I open iPhoto I get on the screen The currant screen resolution is not optimal for iPhoto

System Preferences>Displays and choose 'Best for built-in display' (that's the setting in Mountain Lion, not sure if you are running another version of OS X).

Following Media Files Are Not Optimized For Final Cut Pro

I'm sure you've seen this before and I've tried to search for a thread on it here and fell asleep, so sorry if this is a repeat.
I have edited projects in Premiere Pro (on my PC) and I have tried to transfer them in FCP. It worked with the exception of two things:
1. the error message, "Following Media Files Are Not Optimized For Final Cut Pro"
2. the quality *****! watching it on the playback in FCP it looks great, but then when I burn it to Disc it's pixelated in spots and generally has a lower quality picture.
I know that it's Standard Def. and can't expect the best, but I've done it before (once or twice) and it didn't seem this bad.
Can someone suggest anything to help the quality? Should I run my AVIs through MPEG Steamclip to make it a QT file and if so what is the best format in that since there are many to choose from and most I'm not familiar with?
Thank you,
Crayton

I did compress them to DV NTSC then burned it to DVD and the result was no bueno.
I thought what I would do is try compressing them again before I send them on over to DVDSPRO. Here is a simplified break down of the situation:
- I have edited the raw footage in Premiere Pro on my PC. They were recorded and captured as SD.
- I rendered them in Premiere, then transfered the rendered AVI file to FCP.
- When went to place the files in FCP, I received the warning message; "Following Media Files Are Not Optimized For Final Cut Pro" but I went forward anyways and it allowed me to do so.
- Originally I went ahead and compressed them from FCP to QT Movie as a DV NTSC, which ended up poorly.
- Therefore my question is, should I compress them using another file type (other then DV NTSC)? Which leads me to another program that I have called MPEG Streamclip, which offers tons of file types of which I am unfamiliar with most. I want the best quality of course but don't know what file type is the highest going from AVI to a format that can be accepted by FCP and ultimately DVDSPRO. Keeping in mind that I only have FCP5 and do not have Prores.
Did that make sense?
Thank you again,
Crayton

When setting up yahoo e mail what info are they asking for in the description block

When setting up Yahoo e mail on i pad2 what information are they asking for in the description block

It's just a name/description so that you can identify the account in the Mail app. If you have more than one email account set up on the iPad, then that is the name that appears and which you select when switching between them - so it just needs to be something so that you can identify which email account it is so that you know which one it is that you are selecting/viewing

This helped meRe: not copied to iPad because you are not authorized for it on this computer
Nov 20, 2011 10:41 AM (in response to hoppo72)
One workarwound is to do the following:
1. Remove the digital content from iTunes (but keep the files)
2. Rename all .m4v files to .mp4 files
3. Add the files back to iTunes
This seems to fix the problem for me
Hope this helps

Every movie purchase through iTunes fails to transfer to my iPhone or iPad and the message I get is this: some of the items in the itunes library, including were not copied to the ipad because you are not authorized for them on this computer... help?

For a couple months now, every movie purchase through iTunes fails to transfer to my iPhone or iPad giving me the error: "some of the items in the iTunes library, including were not copied to the iPad because you are not authorized for them on this computer". I have read many forums about deleting, reinstalling, de-authorizing and authorizing my iMac through the iTunes store. Many suggestions don't work except to rename the movie to *.MP4 in Finder under the iTunes movie directory. I imagine this is a setting or a bug somewhere... any suggestions on how to bypass having to rename the files in Finder? My research into Google suggests this problem dates back to 2007 or so but it is now more prevalent than ever.
Thanks.
