I have been trying so hard to try and get my head round this since your last comment so what I think I know is with my Nikon d80 having 3:2 aspect ratio pictures that I wanted printed can only be the sizes you mentioned above which is fine as the pictures I got printed were 9x6" but it's from now I'm still bit lost when I use the crop tool and pre set the size to 9x6" with a resolution of 240 and crop out all the bits I don't want it comes back from printers stretched so i'm still lost as I don't know the point where I'm doing something that causes the stretching? thank you for your patience
Lets separate this into topics Aspect Ratio, resolution and size ... etc
Aspect Ratio is just the ratio of an image's two sides. Your camera captures an image with a 3:2 Aspect Ratio. If you want to print the whole image your camera captures it can be printed and image size that has sides the have a 3:2 ratio without distorting the image.
Images are re-sized two ways:
One way is to keep the pixels your camera captures and print them at different resolutions. Resolution is nothing more then pixel size. Pixels have no size till there is a resolution set. Pixels themselves may have a aspect ratio themselves. These days most devices use square pixel. Some video standards use non square pixels. So if you have square pixels and an image with 1800px by 1200px and set the resolution to 300DPI the print size will be 6" by 4" if you set the to 200DPI the print size will be 9" by 6". Its simple math. 300DPI means pixels are 1/300"x1/300" there are 90,000px/inch 200DPI 1/200"x1/200" 40,000px/inch 100DPI 1/100"x1/100" 10,000. Note how quickly the pixel count climes as resolution increase doubling an image resolution requires four times as many pixels not two timas as many.
The other way is to create a new image using the pixels you camera captures. Your Camera pixels are resampled(interpolated) into a totally new image not a single camera captured pixel remains intact the new image has a different numbers of pixels it a different image. There are different interpolation methods some work better then others depending on image content and the direction of the re-size. Any time you resample an image you loose some image quality. The pixels are generated they are not captured using optics and a sensor.
Normally I do not resample when printing I just set the DPI so the image prints the size I want. In the Image size Dialog I un-check resample and the set the print width or height I want to print. Photoshop will calculate the DPI and set the other side size. If you crop without setting a DPI resolution in the crop tool the crop tool will not resample the crop to a particular DPI it should just set the appropriate DPI.
I resample image for the web Cameras capture more pixels then can be display by displays. So in the image size dialog I check resample and constrain the width and height to the image current aspect ratio then I set the number of pixels I want the width or height to be. Photoshop will calculate the number of pixels the other side will be. The DPI is meaningless for web images for Web images are displayed on screens at the resolution a displays has. Your images will display large on a large Low DPI resolution HDTV screen and small on a high resolution cell phone display.
If you want to print you image a size that does not have a 3:2 aspect ratio without distortion you need to crop you image to the aspect ratio you want to print at. You need to discard part of your image. The Crop Tool does not distort it discards part of you image. It may or may not resample the crop selected. I do not use the crop tool but if I did I would not use it to resample the crop I would not set in a DPI resolution in the crop tool.
Photoshop can also resize an image from one aspect ratio to and other aspect ratio a non constrained resize. The resulting image will be distorted. However Photoshop does have have a content aware re-size that tries to maintain recognizable objects perspective during the distortion process. This process can also be aided by user masking.
Cropping:
A 3:2 aspect ratio image can in theory be cropped to an infinite number of smaller images that have any aspect ratios including an infinite number of images that have a 3:2 aspect ratio. All crops can be resampled to a particular DPI resolution. However digital pixels can not be sliced up so there are a finite numbers of crops you can hack form a digital image

HT4993 I have 3 phones under the same apple ID. I want to remove mine from the same one my kids use. How can I do this but keep their's on the current apple ID?

I have 3 phones on one apple ID. I want to remove my phone which is the main phone on the acct to it's own apple ID. How can I do that but keep the other 2 on the current ID

When you connect that iPad to iTUnes, go to the summary page and scroll down, there should be a box saying 'automatically update' or something to that effect. De select that.
With automatically update on, what you buy on one goes onto the other. but with that box off you can choose.
On the iPad itself, it's under
Settings
iTUnes and App Stores
and then you can choose what you want automatically updated between the two devices.

when i import from my video camera into imovie the clips look tall and thin. tried different imports like full size or large have imported both sd and hd but seem to make no difference everything seems to run ok including sound. whats going on?

Hi Brad,
when you use Streamclip to convert media, use the same name for the exported file (only with different extension). Then make a shell script calling
touch -r origFileName.mp2 newFileName.mov
This will copy the exact time and date from origFileName.mp2 to newFileName.mov
The script may look like this (save the file, give an exec permission to it and call it in the right directory):
#!/bin/bash
for i in `ls *.mp2`; do
NEWNAME=$(ls "$i" | sed -e 's/mp2/mov/')
touch -r $i $NEWNAME
done
You may need to adapt the extension names used (in the example above .mp2 is input file to get the date/time stamp from and .mov is the output file to stamp.
Have fun and cheers

Any apps you've had installed on your iPad can be downloaded again.
Go to App Store on your iPad and select 'Updates' and then tap on Purchased. You can then view all purchases made on the iPad or purchases made on other devices by selecting the 'Not on this iPad' tab.

How do you delete duplicates but keep the orginials?

How do you deleter duplicates but keep the originals?

Mark,
Since you are having a problem that is not directly related to the original (and old) post (and I say that because this thread seems to answer the OP's question, but not yours), it woud be better to ask in a new thread. New threads have a better chance of getting answered, and you can give credit to good answers of your own questions. I..e., if someone else answers your question in this thread, you cannot give them credit.
When you pose your new question, it might be good to include a screen shot and a better description of how you have deduced that two projects are identical, along with what you have done to try to find them and where exactly you have looked.

I sold my Imac and would like to wipe it out but keep the major programs is that possible?

I sold my Imac and I would like to wipe it out passwords and all but keep the programs that have been purchased, is that possible and how do you do it?

Not really. You should just start clean.
Prepare Your Mac for Sale
Boot from the OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer. 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 the startup volume from the left side list then click on the Erase tab. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) then click on the Options button. Select the one pass Zero Data option and click on the OK button. Then click on the Erase button.
Note: You can skip the Zero Data option if you are not concerned about removing sensitive personal data from the hard drive. If you choose to skip this part of the process then it is possible for others to recover data from the hard drive. The Zero Data procedure will prevent others from getting access to your personal information.
This process will take 30 minutes to several hours depending upon the size of the hard drive. After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Now complete the OS X installation. At the completion of the installation do not restart the computer. Instead just shut it off. The next user will be presented with the Setup Assistant when they turn on the computer just as it would if new out of the box.

I need help, I have more then one apple ID on my iPhone 4, is there any way to delete one but keep the other?

You can only be signed in to one Apple ID at a time. Sign in to the one you want and ignore the other.

How can FRT be backordered but not the phone ???

So I ordered my iPhone through direct fullfillment on 7/19. This morning (7/28) I checked the status of my order, and it showed that the phone is no longer back-ordered but the FRT is. From what I understand, the FRT is the shipping. How can that be back-ordered if the phone isn't any longer.
Do you think this means my phone will ship soon ?

Well yes I guess an AT&T forum would probably be the best for this question.
I have seen many other board members though QUESTION, GRIPE, & COMPLAIN about their woes of trying to actually get their iPhone. I figured this is like one big family, your allowed to complain about things slightly off topic to get some answers.

My family all use my iCloud account to backup their phones, meaning there is not enough space for me. How can we have seperate accounts without the risk of any of us having data/photos erased or lost?

Hi. We have 4 iPads and 3 iPhones in our household. I have my own apple ID which my whole family use. This was fine until IOS6 came out, and I found I wasn't able to back up my phone because the rest of my family have used all my iCloud storage! We've now decided we all want seperate IDs and seperate iCloud accounts, but we're worried if we delete iCloud from any of the devices that it will also delete our apps, pictures, data etc. Can someone guide me along the right path here?
Thanks
Carly

Yes....On each device, go under "Settings....iCloud" and DELETE ACCOUNT. This doesn't do anything to the data itself...it just "disconnects" that device from that particular account. Then each person/device can set up their own iCloud account for storage, backup, etc. As was mentioned above, everyone can maintain the same Apple ID for App Store to share music purchases and such, but make sure the different iCloud accounts exist when you go to restore something or you'll have someone else's stuff or a big mix of everybody's. Don't ask me how I know this.

How do I merge columns but keep the content in both?

I'm using Numbers '09.
If I have first names in column A and last names in column B...how do I combine both into column A to look like this: Last Name, First Name (ex: Doe, John)?
Thanks,
Mark

m,
First, add a new column "before" the existing column A. It's not possible to combine the current content of A with the current content of B and have them appear in the place of the original Column A data. So, we add a new column for the combination. If you don't want to continue to display the original First Name data hide that column.
When you combine two character strings, it's called Concatenation. There's a concatenation operator and a concatenation function. You can use either. Here are examples that meet your spec:
In the first data row of the new column A, write: =C&", "&B
Copy and Paste or Fill to the rest of column A.

How can I get Safari to keep the reading list pane open all the time?

I am really enjoying the Reading List pane in Safari. How can I get Safari to make it default that the reading pane is always open on every tab or window I open? I'm running Lion 10.7.3.
Thanks.

Hi Necris Rex,
If you are having trouble keeping the leading zeros even after first formatting the cells as text and then importing the csv values (perhaps you are importing the csv via File > Open into a new document) then you can restore the leading zeros without much trouble:
Insert a new column next to the column where the leading zeros have not imported as you want. Here I assume the original values are in column B and your new column is C.
Put this formula in column C: =RIGHT("00000000"&A,6) , and fill down the column.
Select column C, command-c to copy, and, with the column still selected, Edit > Paste and Match Styles.
Delete the original column that has the missing leading zeros.
Replace the 6 in the formula with the number of digits you need, so the formula knows how many zeros to "pad."
The above assumes you actually need the leading zeros back. If you just want to display things nicely in your Numbers table, then formatting as Numeral System and setting Places to 6 (or whatever) is quick and easy, no formulas required.

I spend a lot of time arranging my tab groups in the tab group view. But Panorama keeps rearranging them whenever I open up firefox. How can I get it to keep the last arrangement I left the tab groups in?

My laptop resolution changes many times a day because I use a docking station. I suspect that this could be causing Panorama to rearrange my tab groups. None the less, I would like it to stop! Anyone know how I can get it to comply?

Hello. I have just tried this add-on you suggested, and no change.
And no, there was no some other add-on before, not that I know about it. Mainly, I need this option while I'm on a forum (IP board powered), it is not really something so important, but it's neat function for me.
So, to be more detailed - I read a certain topic on this forum, and some of the posts from other members contain YouTube screens (looking same as on the original YouTube page), showing the frame of a video.
In earlier versions of Firefox, I used to click on a small YouTube logo button (right side, down, between "watch on full screen" and "watch later" buttons). Clicking on this button automatically opened new tab, leaving forum tab as it is, and in new tab original YouTube page, with that certain video. In the same time, in Google search page, when clicking on a link, all links were opening in the same tab.
Now, after some of the latest updates of Firefox, I noticed that some default settings were changed - in Google search, clicking on a link always opens a link in a new tab. I have found out here on your forum how to set this back in about:config feature, and now I have again that links in a Google results page are opened in the same tab (that's the way I like it).
But YouTube screens on this forum are now also being opened in the same tab, and that is what I don't like, and trying to change back.
So, what I need: all links to open in the same tab after clicking, as I have it now, and YouTube screens (e. g. on this forum) to be opened in a new tab (by clicking on a small YouTube logo ("watch this video on YouTube").
Pedantic I am, I know that, and I know that this may look silly to some people, but if there is a way to do something, please tell me.
Thanks for answering, and best regards.
P.S.
Is it possible that forum updates changed my setting, and not the Firefox? Thanks again...
