Why does the Pixel size of a jpeg change on a different computer?

I have a Mac OS X version 10.8.2 and Adobe Illustrator CS6.
When i save a file "for web" as a jpeg with a specific pixel size (320x50 for example) and then send it by email to someone, when they open it the dimensions somehow change.
Even though on my mac when i "get info" from the jpeg the dimensions are correct...
Please how can i stop this from happening?
Thanks!

DId you check clip to artboard when yo made the jpeg, did your image size shwo the correct dimensions.
If you are checking the file on your end and it is correct, then we need to know more about what is going on at the recipeient's end and how they are determining the size is wrong.

Does the pixel size affect printing in iphoto?

Have trouble printing in iphoto. I can view the photo in iphoto fine. When I print, I am just getting a small corner of the picture. Can the pixel size affect printing?

Set your ruler increments to pixels Preferences>Units & Increments. You can fill the text box with placeholder text Type>Fill with Placeholder text and get a word count from the Info panel with Show Options turned on from the flyout.
From the Transform panel you can set a text box's width and height

Why does the light on my battery charger change from green to orange after a few seconds?

Why does the light on my battery charger cable change from green to orange? The battery continues to accept a charge when light turns orange.

Green = not charging.
Orange = charging.
Note that if your laptop is pulling enough power (using CPU and GPU heavily) the light will turn green because the power adapter cannot provide enough power to charge your batteries in addition to keeping the system going.
In fact, you can drain your batteries even with the adapter plugged in with the 17 inch Macbook Pro if you push it hard enough, although I have not noticed this problem with my Retina Macbook Pro.

Why are the file sizes of exported jpegs so small?

I shoot raw, studio portraits mostly. I import to Lightroom 5 as DNG and then edit. Upon exporting as jpegs, the file sizes end up way too small, some of the cropped and/or black & white conversions as small as 560 KB, even with slider to 100%. Un-cropped color photos are ending up from 1.5 to 3MB. What am I doing wrong?

Jim,
Thank you for your response. I think some of the difficulties in this thread are that there have been more than one person reporting issues, which may or may not be exactly the same or different from the initial one reported by the original poster. Then, anyone else commenting can easily intermix bits and pieces from any or all of the other posters interrelated issues. Also, I should have added to my last response in clarification what I meant about the overall dimensions. I was referring specifically to inches, not file size, not resolution.
My very first post was a thank you to Rusty's post for his comment about how he had noticed his Resolution setting had been changed from ppi to ppcm. I didn't say anything about printing. In fact, I never even stated what my issue was. I was merely thanking him for sharing information. So, for anyone to tell me that I didn't know what my issue is, that I didn't understand was quite laughable to me. And then the other two posters were almost equally ridiculous, who said that since they didn't experience the same conditions as myself and another person, it couldn't be a programming error.
Trust me, I understand explicitly about resolution, image size, dimensions, file size and how they are all interrelated. Resolution is essentially the density of pixels. (And I'm still used to dpi vs ppi, that's how long I've been working with the concept.) I often help other people understand in whichever mode is most comfortable for them to grasp the knowledge of how to know what size image they need/want to capture and print depending on the types of measurements shown on their equipment used and by whomever they might be working with for finish work.
I have a set process, I have set image sizes, I have an action recorded in Photoshop to shrink my images to 24" x 36" and save them in the proper folder with the proper name and another to shrink them to 8" x 12" and place them in the proper folder with the proper name. I am meticulous, so when the first image imported into Photoshop and it was 18.898" x 28.346", un-cropped, I couldn't figure it out. The file size was still just as large, the resolution was still 72, I hadn't changed any settings in Lightroom or Photoshop, the ONLY thing I had done was install an update. It didn't make sense to me that with the pixel dimensions still being the normal size, all of the sudden the inch dimensions were smaller. And I did need to be able to have the capability for a larger print size if/when I do want to print.
I hope that I'm being clear now. I really was just trying to post a thank you initially. I hadn't expected all of this excess.
I apologize for the troll statement. It wasn't meant for you directly, it was more for the grouping of comments which in my opinion didn't seem to be useful for the discussion and were instead just baiting. I shouldn't have allowed my bad mood to permeate my own comment regardless. I am also sorry for any other statements I made which might have come across wrong. I was trying to be funny with my first comment about programmers, but it might not have come across that way. I hadn't expected the rude and unnecessary comment back which I received, and that's where the trollish comments came from. That's why I only responded to that person once, despite the string of poking posts.

Why does the Reduced Size PDF command create larger files?

I have been a happy user of Adobe Acrobat vers. 7 until Adobe ceased the support of that version and I was unable to print and do other activities since my last Mac OS vers.10.6.8 update, so I was forced to upgrade to Adobe's Acrobat's X latest version 10.0.0. I had hope to be able to produce Adobe Acrobat 3D files but found out later that Adobe does not do that anymore and I would have to buy it as a plugin from Tetra 4D for another $399.00, oh well. I then wanted to reduce the file size of some larger pdfs I had edited. It took a while to locate the command location, now in File>Save>Reduced SizePDF, once I activated the command on my file it actually increased its size!! Why did this happen? Should I continue to use my disabled, Adobe unsupported vers 7 to get the superior performance I once had? This issue was mentioned in an earlier thread that started out as to where to locate this command but the resultant larger file issue remained unanswered. Currently unhappy on my purchase. Will Adobe offer a free upgrade to fix this?

I agree with Peter. Use Pages '09, but keep a document migration strategy present. When you create a Pages document in Pages '09, export it to Word .doc too. Export any current content in Pages v5.2.2, and then stop using it. That means no double-clicked documents.
Pages v5 is not an evolution of Pages '09 — it is an incomplete rewrite, and uses a different, internal document architecture than did Pages '09. This internal architecture is to blame for the export translation bloat into Word's different document architecture. It does not matter whether you type a single character, or multiple pages, you will get about a 500Kb .docx file.
Opening, and resaving this monster .docx file in MS Word in Office for Mac 2011, LibreOffice, or TextEdit will result in a very small .docx footprint.

Why does the file size change when put into an iDVD project? And problems with dual layer discs...

I exported a short video of mine from Final Cut Express and the size of the file came out to 7.3 GB. When I put it into an iDVD project, it says that the file is only 800 MB. I tried just burning it onto a dual layer disc anyway to see if it might still burn at the original file size, but the disc came out unusable for some reason, and obviously hadn't been burned anywhere near full-capacity. So, I tried it again, and the exact same thing happened.
I guess my first question is: why is iDVD changing the size of the file? I want the quality to be the best it can be, so keeping it at 7.3 GB as opposed to 800 MB is rather important.
Secondly, why did the dual layer discs come out unusable? I've burned single layer discs before and they haven't been an issue. Also, I know for a fact that the drive can burn dual layer discs, so that isn't the issue.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide me with help on this issue.

Guessing here but it looks like you edited/exported an SD/DV sequence of about 30 min in FCE. DVD needs to be MPEG-2 so iDVD compresses the original file down to the size that you report.

The quality will be what the MPEG-2 compression and the software allow for. MPEG-2 is DVD standard .... there's no way around that.

Guessing again but it would seem that you burned a Data DVD instead of a Video DVD which would be unusable by a set-top player. As I said above you can't get around DVD standards.
If by any chance your video was HD originally you can try to go the Blu-Ray route using Roxio Toast or FCS 3 (discontinued) or FCP X. You will also need a Blu-Ray burner.

Why does the type size suddenly change while I am typing

When I am typing the size of all the text I've written will suddenly become smaller. On one message I would highlight it and push the larger "A" button. It became bigger, this happened several times. When I sent the message the type looked normal on my screen, but it was huge on the recipients' message screen

Why does the character size keep changing to extreme small on the home page?

With the new Firefox downloaded the character type changes to extremely small print every time I go away from the home page. I then have to reset it to larger print. With old Firefox the print size remained as I set it all the time.

You didn't restore the device as new before you began using it. Do so now, and use your own Apple ID & password from now on.
Go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings.
Then, in the Setup Assistant, use only your own information.

Why does the font size change unexpectedly when I use the touchpad with my new HP laptop with Windows 8?

Frequently the font size will change when the touchpad is touched. This is annoying! Is there a setting adjustment I can make to keep this from happening?

This is very experimental, but since no one else has replied...
I'm not sure which computers are affected, but Firefox has some support for touchpad "gestures" on multi-touch touchpads. Most of the ones that affect the zoom level of the page are the "pinching" gestures, like a smartphone screen. However, it seems that by default a "tap" will reset the zoom level, and that might be the problem here.
Could you try this?
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''gest''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click '''browser.gesture.tap''' and change it to... I'm not sure whether there is a command for "do nothing" but you could try typing or pasting in '''cmd_selectNone''' which cancels the current text selection in the page (if any).

Why does the volume on my MacBook Pro change on its own?

I just got my MacBook Pro and sometimes the volume goes up or down and usually when this happens iTunes opens up and starts playing randomly. Why does this happen!?

Why does the settings of my IMAP account changed without my assistance?

I have the problem that on my new iPhone 5 (IOS 6) the "mailbox behaviour" for the folders "Drafts", "Sent" and "Trash" changed twice back from my selected settings (Folder in the IMAP-Account) to "On my iPhone" without my assistance? Why? The same happened to the select box below where to define when emails in the trash folder should be deleted permanently.

Are you using RTF for message composition or Plain Text?
If RTF, try using Plain Text instead when sending messages thru an Exchange Server. Windows Outlook does the same when using RTF for message composition but sending messages thru an Exchange Server also has an effect.

Why does the text size shrink when I make the window smaller?

I have some notes in a DOCX page. I don't want the entire page blocking up the desktop yet I want to see the notes. When I change the size of the page, the text shrinks too. How useless is that?
How to I keep the text normal size and have a smaller page?
Everything I know I learned from my cat. No matter what the situation is, there is a napp for that.

Hi,
When we I change the size of the page manually in Word 2013, the text won’t shrinks. I also resize the window via code below:
Sub ReSizeWinodw()
Application.ActiveWindow.WindowState = wdWindowStateNormal
Application.ActiveWindow.Width = 500
Application.ActiveWindow.Height = 500
End Sub
It won’t shrink the text too. If you are using code to resize the window of Word, would you mind sharing with us some code snippet to help us to troubleshoot this issue?
If not, I suggest you posting it to
Word IT Pro Discussions get more effective responses.

Why does the text size option have no effect?

Hi, text is really small. When going through display option settings and enlarging the text using the A button it has no effect on actual pages. The text is still tiny. I have tried downloading 'no small text' but get the message that it's incompatible. Is there a solution? Thanks.
I have version 29.

It's unclear but that desktop font sizing change only affects "certain desktop optimized websites". It's really misleading.
There is no way to adjust font sizing on mobile optimized websites which I assume you're trying to adjust.

Why does the vector selection tool (white arrow) change layer selection to another vector mask?

I have been continually annoyed, when creating a vector mask-heavy document, with trying to select vector mask points by dragging a rectangle only to find that it instead selects a layer higher up which has a larger vector mask.
The only workaround is to manually select the points of my mask or to drag a rectangle from outside the canvas, meaning I have to zoom out or scroll to the edge - sometimes annoying if I am zoomed in quite far.
Does anyone know any resolution for this?
I know that the move tool can be set to automatically select a layer, depending on what part of the image is clicked, but why is there not an option to turn this off for vector editing?

What version of Photoshop are you using????
The White Arrow tool is the direct selection tool and it work best way you point it at a path segment line and click once. When you do all the control points in a close path segment will be marked with little squares and the two control point adjacent to where you clicked will have handles you can adjust.
You can also drag out a rectangle with the direct selection tool. When you do you may select many closed paths in a path a path may have many sub paths and each has a mode like add, subtract, intersect etc, and each has a stacking order like in a layer stack. So if you drag out a rectangle many paths control points will be marked and control point adjacent to crossing rectangle will have handles. Can be very confusing.
Here are two screen capture the first on shows the layer palette and path palette. You can see many shapes and path with sub paths and modes. I also targeted layer a vector mask. The selected the direct selection tool and in the image window I pointed at the 45 degree oval path near the top right. You cab see the four control points and two with handles. The second screen capture I only captured the image window. I used the direct selection tool and draged out a rectangle and you cab see many segments control points and many have handles. I have no problem selecting what I want to select
