Why did the preset web resolution change from 72ppi to 135ppi?

Hi,
I just noticed this in the latest photoshop update. Is there a reason why this is? If this is to make designing for retina easier (not having to zoom as much in photoshop), why isn't it at 144?
Just curious – thanks!

I guess if you are a web designer, 72 is kind of a benchmark for Mac screen resolutions going back to the mid-1990s. 96 is the Windows standard of 640 x480 px.
It's kind of weird. Those two screen resolution standards are no longer common and I would think browsers today would adjust to fit the screen.
I wouldn't even worry about the number in the resolution field.

  • Why did the country currency suddenly changed from € to $?

    hi there,
    since i tried to get some songs from australia, the country currency suddenly changed into $. now, i can't buy songs at itunes anymore, which is pretty sad! does anybody know how to fix that?
    thanx,

    Hi Lily,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You can only purchase through another country's music store if you have a billing address and a credit card in that country. So unless you have this, you are only able to purchase through the German store.
    This is not the fault of Apple, it is to do with the record companies who hold the rights to the music. They decide which countries can have what.
    Hope this helps
    Cheers

    When I updated to the latest IOS last night, why did the photo events date change?

    The problem is that the Add-ons Manager tab when opened the first time, is on "Get Add-ons" section and that must be downloaded from the Add-ons server which might be overburdened.

  • Why did the "custom" size option disappear from list when creating a PDF in Photoshop?

    For my job, I must have the custom option available to me in Photoshop. I'm currently using CS4 and have been for years without a problem. Yesterday "custom" option from the choose size list disappeared, along with several other options (that I don't use).  I have shut down the program and restarted. I've shut down the computer - even over night - and it is still gone. Why did this happen and how do I get this very important tool back?

    This one. It only appears once a download has begun.

  • Why did my sign in screen change from black to red?

    For no obvious reason (which frustrates me the most out of any computer issue...) my computer sign in screen has changed from back to a pale red color. Though the computer still seems to be working properly *(except a bug change in iPhoto), I want to know if something bad is coming. People usually want to know why something they paid for is changing. Do I need to worry?
    * iPhoto has decided to not import my new photos from my card and reader. It got started, and somewhere on the way sat there with nothing to show something was working.... the whirling thing or anything at all. When checking on it, by clicking on "eject" or trying to leave iPhoto, or even turn the computer off, it popped up a message saying to was still importing photos. It stayed like that for a day. I had to force quit but that's not an answer .What's going on? Can I trust importing photos again?

  • Why did remaining storage capacity suddenly change from 3.5 GB to 0.5 G???

    When I wanted to synchronise my iPhone 3G yesterday I suddenly recognised that the storage capacity had sunk from 3.5 GB to 0.5 GB. The yellow bar suddenly had become longer and indicated 3 GB more "OTHERS" (other programs) than before. I didn´t have installed anything so far. What can be the reason for this???
    Thanks for all your help!
    Klaus hausmann

    I restored from a back up. All third party app data and settings seem to be preserved. HOWERVER, I went from 5.73 GB of OTHER Capacity data to 5.81 GB. So restore from a backup file is NOT a solution for this mess.
    It seems that this is a file system problem in the OS that has persisted for years from the internet searches I've done.
    I'm going to do a full restore, realizing that I will have to re-enter all the data that I did not want to lose. Some of the 3rd party apps have backup/restore import/export features. Some do not.
    On a larger scale is this problem 1) acknowledged by Apple as a problem and 2) do they intend to actually solve it (i.e., not suggesting that I restore my phone from scratch destroying my data is actually a reasonable solution)?

  • Why did the form I created change after saving?

    I have Adobe Acrobat XI Standard and was creating a form from a PDF. I didn't have permission so I made a copy of the form so that I wouldn't have any restrictions. I was able to edit the copy perfectly and it printed perfectly. I saved as a Reader Extended PDF so that the recipient could save and print, I emailed the form and then when I opened the attachment, part of it was all jumbled. Now the file is saved jumbled and I can't go back to the original. Is there a way I can fix this without redoing everything? How did this happen? See the bottom of the page under Insurance Requirements as a reference attached.

    I couldn't get the image to attach.....

  • Why did the playlist time format change in iTunes 10.6? Can I get the old format back?

    My iTunes playlists used to give a precise total play time. Now that I downloaded the new version of iTunes, the playlist just estimates the time. So, "1 hour" could mean 1 hour and 2 or 3 or 4 minutes. That is a big problem for people who teach 60-minute fitness classes! I plan my class around that playlist, and 3 or 4 minutes is a big deal. Now I am having to add up the time of songs by hand. What a pain!  Is there any way to get back the old format of time, which estimated exactly "59 minutes" or I think it was more precise, like "00:59:12."  I need this format back.  The estimate of "1.1 hours" is killing me.

    Hello. When I go to "About iTunes," it says "10" but then "10.6 (40)" underneath, in fine print.
    Actually, "40.3" minutes is different from the previous format.  It used to give the time in hh:mm:ss. This is an image of my problem:
    Now that the time is given in decimals, there are some minutes unaccounted for. I have a playlist that is 58 minutes (I added it on a calculator), but iTunes tells me it's 1 hour. I know it doesn't seem like a big deal but it matters when you have a 60 minute class and you are guided by your playlist.

  • Why did my calendar view suddenly change? Using iOS 7.1 and I've been using this version for a few weeks with no problem with my calendar. Now the view has changed and I can't view a list mode without seeing the month too

  • Why did the icons under my 'Layer' tab change appearance?

    The above image shows a layer of curves with a masks.
    Why did the mask change its appearance? Normally it's a blank square.
    Even the links have changed (I believe they were thinner previously).
    I might've pressed something and I don't know how to go back. I haven't
    updated anything yet, so it shouldn't be because it's a newer version of
    Photoshop.

    Here's how it looks. I'll try adjusting something...but I never touched any

  • Why does the Date Created metadata change when images are exported?How do I stop it from changing?

    why does the Date Created metadata change when images are exported?  How do I stop it from changing? I must have a prefernce set up wrong.

    I don't know what OS you are using, or what application you are using to view the data about your exported files, but on Windows and using Windows Explorer the "Date Created" field relates only to the date that the exported file was created, i.e. if viewed immediately after export it will show the date created as being the same date. In order to view "Capture Date" in something like Explorer, you first have to ensure you have included the Metadata as Conrad outlined above, then you have to adjust the display properties of Explorer to show the "Date Taken" field. Here is an example, part of a folder I exported back on March 3rd, note the difference between that last two dates:

  • HT4623 Why Did this update result in changes to the apple id on my phone?

    Why did the recent  update cause so many problems on my new iphone?

    The update would not result in changes to your Apple ID.
    As for your other question it is impossible to answer since you haven't mentioned any specific problems.
    I (and millions of others) updated to iOS 6.1.3 with no problems whatsoever.
    What problems do you have? It is possible that some corruption occurred when you were updating your iPhone.

    Why did the videos get taken from festival?

    Ten days and still no reply. Thanks, Apple. It's companies like you and EA that make me think you guys are only in it for the money. I payed $2.99 for this dn app and no refund. But it doesn't matter anymore because I jailbroke my iPod and got the app back. Looks like you lost a customer.

  • When placing a Illustrator file in Indesign, the Illustrator file sometime changes from 100%.

    When placing a Illustrator file in Indesign, the Illustrator file sometime changes from 100%. When you select the placed file with the selection tool, it says 100%, but if you select with the direction tool, file has been changed any where from 98 to 102 %, not staying at the 100%? why is this and how can you asure the size does not change when placed or when updating the illustrator link?

    Probably you have inserted files in a frame whose content was previously adequate with "Fit Content Proportionally" or "Fill Frame Proportionally".
    The new content in the same frame will have the same characteristics as the previous one
