What size do the pics for the book need to be???

I am getting very very annoyed. It does not matter whether I give in 7 by 5, 8 by 10, iphoto keeps chopping off the sides... I open my pics again in photoshop to resize them, give black or white space on the sides, yet it keeps chopping off and not putting in the changed version...
What a pain to be honest. This is for a wedding book, I can not afford pieces of pics chopped off... There is a bigger/smaller slider, but even the smallest is not enough to fit my whole page on the iPhoto page.
What correct measurements do you need to fit one pic on a one pic page?
I know all about cropping and constrain, yet iphoto does not seem to work on constraining... IT KEEPS CHOPPING SIDES OFF... AGGGGGRRRRRR
Any speedy help would be very very very much appreciated!!!!

Catherine:
The recommended size for putting in books is 4:3. Other sizes will work but as you found out they will be scaled up till either the smaller size is just right, cutting off some the the longer side or scale the longer side up and leaving extra space on the shorter sides.
With 4:3 the photo will be automatically sized to exactly fit the 4:3 frames in the pages.

  • Changing The Speed Dial Icon [Custom Pic For The Top Sites]

    how do i change the pic for the top sites on the speed dial. can i use a custom images like on chrome or opera??

    You can use virtually any image or link as an email button, the sky is the limit. To do this just insert your image into iweb and click on the inspector button, from here you go to the very last button called the link inspector, enable as a hyperlink and chose an email message. You can then put the url of the email address you wish to link it too. As far as customizing the look I would start with one of the blank page choices. Again to specifically customize the look of your menu or anything else on the page use the inspector. If you want to create your own menu there is an option not to display navigation on your page, and this allows you to have complete control of how your page looks. Create a simple page, open up the inspector, and have some fun creating your own pages. Hope this helps.

  • What is the cause for the mac to become slow

    what is the cause for the mac to become slow?

    Things You Can Do To Resolve Slow Downs
    If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
    Start with a visit to: OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney.
    Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    Repair the Hard Drive - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot from your Lion Recovery HD. When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
    Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger.  These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
    I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
      1. Carbon Copy Cloner
      2. Data Backup
      3. Deja Vu
      4. SuperDuper!
      5. SyncTwoFolders
      6. Synk Pro
      7. Synk Standard
      8. Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Additional suggestions will be found in Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
    Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
    Additional Hints
    Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
    Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
    Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
    Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
    Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file.

  • Determine preferred size to be set for the JPanel attached to JScrollBar

    Determine what preferred size to be set for the JPanel attached to JScrollBar.
    Hello all, I am having a JPanel, where new components will be added into it during run-time. When there are too many components inside the JPanel, I need to re-set the JPanel preferred size so that the JScrollBar is scrollable.
    I was wondering what is the good method to determine the preferred size of JPanel during runtime?
    Currently, I am using
    myJPanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(
    numberOfNewComponent * preferred width of each component,
    numberOfNewComponent * preferred height of each component
    ));Is there any better alternative?
    Thank you very much.
    yccheok

    Usually a container such as JPanel will calculate its own preferred size from its layout manager - calling setPreferredSize is often unnecessary.
    When you add a component to your JPanel its preferred size will change automatically.
    What's wrong with the behaviour when you simply add your JPanel to a JScrollPane and let it manage its own preferred size?
    Hope this helps.

  • What is the location for the swatches file in the illustrator product part of Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium for windows (date and lenght)? File that manges its funcionallity.  Thanks

    As per adobe agent chat representative, the following question is posted on the fórum to obtain an answe from adobe.
    What is the location for the swatches file in the illustrator product part of Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium for windows (date and lenght)? File that manges its funcionallity.
    Thanks
    <moved from downloading,installing,setting up - kglad>

    Illustrator is not working as it should...
    I want them to compare the original size and date of creation with what I have installed on my computer... I have installed several times with my original CD and I tried once downloading the files from the adobe site (using my own license). I suspect the files has been modified or renamed on my laptop by an external unauthorized user causing the malfunction of the application. 
    Customer services does not support CS3 anymore and the updates / patches in the adobe site does not solve the problem... They redirect me to the forums for support...
    Presently, my problem is that after creating a swatch and drag it to the swatch panel, it does not fill as it should a new form... Now, after deactivating and activating my license the swatch seems to fill the new form but when the filter that the swatch has is persistence in the next filling object created even though a different color is being used as a fill (X)... Help in the creation of a swatch over the internet just complicate the issue.
    That's why I would like to know whether updates on my product are being received or files are being replaced without my knowledge...
    Thanks...
    PS Do you know how to contact a staff adobe employer on the forums?

    1. What is effective the range for the Time Capsule if there are 2 walls 6" thick each obstacle the way?
    It is not that simple.. are the walls hollow or solid concrete..?? it is not the thickness of the walls.. but the thickness of material and angle of penetration.. remember wierless is a dead straight line.. Tx to Rx.. so a 30deg angle through concrete is a lot more material than just 6" steel reinforcing is really bad.. at an angle it maybe hard for the wireless to see a gap.
    Through standard plasterboard.. rockboard in US I think. walls, with no insulation.. about 15% signal drop on each.. the TC should work ok in standard size house over single floor at least at 2.4ghz .. but the speed will drop as you get further away. Difficult to say more.. that is why apple make the extreme and express and TC can all extend wireless from each other. But all this is only 2.4ghz. 
    5ghz you will be lucky to get signal through two walls.
    2. Can I backup my data to my Time Capsule anywhere in the world using the Internet?
    You can access the TC by using BTMM via iCloud in certain circumstances.. we would not recommend backups over internet.. the possiblity of corrupting the whole backup is too high. Just use a 2.5" portable drive.. ML can backup TM to different targets..
    3. Can I use the Time Capsule to backup data on my iphone, ipad and ipod?
    Not directly.. they do not work with TC.. they work with iTunes.. and you automatically backup to itunes locally or cloud.. then Time Machine backs up the iTunes.
    You can access the file and store files on the TC if you use a file browser app. But this is not the intended method of operation of any of those devices.

  • Trying to open Aperture, but I get the message, "There was an error opening the database for the library "/Users/davewasson/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary". - and it forces me to quit. What do I do?

    Trying to open Aperture, but I get the message, "There was an error opening the database for the library “/Users/davewasson/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary”. - and it forces me to quit. What do I do?

    Dave-
    You can try opening the old (problem) library by launching Aperture into Library First Aid mode and choosing to Repair (first option) or Rebuild the library. Before doing this, make a backup copy of the old library, since both Repair or Rebuild will write changes to the library database.
    Repair is the faster and less drastic option, so try that first: After backing up your library, hold down both the Option and Command keys while dragging and dropping the problem library on the Aperture icon. The Photo Library First Aid window appears. Select Repair Database, then click Repair. After some time Aperture should open the library, if possible.
    If that fails launch Aperture back into Library First Aid and select Rebuild Database. Depending on the size of your library this operation could take some time, up to several hours for a very large library. When the main window appears you may have some extra Recovered folders/projects. This operation rebuilds the library from scratch and is usually successful at reviving problem libraries.

  • What are the parameters for the processes menu items

    Is there anywhere that lists out what the exact parameters of the process menu items are. i.e "Make Louder, Normalize, Hard Limit, Equalize Volume Levels",
    For instance when you use "Make Louder" you see the dialog box title change from "Analyzing peeks" to "Applying Hard Limit". What exactly is happening when these processes are being applied? I realize that the Hard limiter is being applied, but with what paramaters and what does "Analyzing peeks" really mean and is there a way to do that by its self and if so what can be learned by the results.
    I would also like to know the paramaters for the others as well. It would be helpfull to know, so one could dial up or down the paramaters to achieve a similar result, but with slightly more or less effect.
