Why is the jpg file so large?

I can't find the reason why this attached image file is so huge?! Lately, when saving an image from Photoshop cc to a jpg image file, the file size has gone up 10 times. It is almost the same as when saving a PNG file. I normally use 9 in jpg quality, and I have been working with Photoshop for over 12 years. Have never seen seen anything like this before. I have attached two images for comparison. One of them is just one pixel row wide and should be no bigger than 20k or so. But it is 1,5MB. The other file with the iPhone/AppleWatch contains a lot more information but is almost the same size (1.6MB, unless image is compressed or resized when posting this ).
Any suggestions?
(Notice the very thin gradient line below)

The image with the 1 row of pixels was removed when posting this for some reason, but I guess you understand the issue?

Why is 500kb jpg file too large for PDF readers?

I have a jpg file size of 500kb and it is too big for GoodReader and PDF reader. Adobe Reader does not appear in the "Open In" dialog. Please help. I have an iPad 2.

Can you open these attachments in your email with no issues? There is no way that 500kb is too large as Diavonex has already stated.
Two thoughts - the jpgs are not being saved correctly or you have an issue with GoodReader.
Have you restarted your iPad? Quit GoodReader completely and then try again?

Why is the Other file so large on my iPhone - nearly 5 GB.

I have a 32 GB iphone 5s. I'm running out of space. In syncing with my computer, it shows the different file groups (audio, video, photos, etc.), and the "Other" file is nearly 5 GB. Why is it that big, and what is it all? Also is there a way to reduce it in size?

"Other" data is real data that you put on your phone by using the built in apps. It is not music, not videos, not pictures and not App Store app data. It is "OTHER" meaning everything that does not fall into these categories. Such as:
email messages and attachments
Reminders
Calendar entries
Contacts
Text messages
MMS messages and attachments
Genius data
Music cover art
Operating system settings
Safari cache
bookmarks
Game Center status
Music catalog
Probably a few I've missed.
You will find posts from people who said they recovered over 3 GB of space by just deleting old text messages.
If you want Other to be smaller you will have to keep less data on your phone; delete old MMS and texts, delete old email (especially from the "deleted" folder), clear the cache, eliminate cover art.
Sometimes "Other" includes data corruption. If you suspect this is a possibility try connecting to iTunes and click the Restore iPhone button. First restore from backup; the Other doesn't get any smaller you can Restore again and set up as New, then add your content back separately from your backup.

Why would an alias file be larger than the original file?

I have a simple document that is 106kb. When I create an alias to the file, the alias is 133kb. Why would the alias file be larger than the orginal file when the alias file is simply a redirect to the original file?

WHERE ARE THE .JPG FILES IN THE MXP1700????

Where can I find the .jpg files in the MXP1700 using the serial interface???
Need to down load to my desktop ... have to use serial for this issue.
Thanks.

It's been a while last time I had an 1700mxp in my hands but as far I can remember, you can't access the file system over serial. Your best chance is to try to break the boot sequence but I think this is something available on the integrator codecs, not sure for the 1700mxp.
But, could you explain more in details what you're trying to accomplish? If it's just to retrieve the current wallpaper, I would believe this is an one-time operation, so why do you have to stick with a serial connection?

Why does the book file bloat?

Every time I refresh (reimport) the EDD to the files of a book, the book file gets larger and larger indefinitely (which never happens to the individual fm-files).
Okey, I can resave as mif and then resave the mif back as a .book file to get rid of that junk, but why? It's pretty annoying. Why does it bloat? What's the purpose of bloating it rather than just replacing the old structure definitions? This has been so for all versions of FM I know of.
Regards,

in servlet try to do somthing like
realpath=this.getServletContext().getRealPath("/")+"path from web app root"
if you whant to get WebInfpath try:
String webinf_path=this.getServletContext().getRealPath("/")+"Web-inf"

Why is the JPG missing its clipping path when opening in Illustrator?

I need to be able to create jpg images images in photoshop with a clipping mask so that my clients can open the files in their own programs with a transparent (not solid white) background. I thought I used to be able to do this. But now when I open the jpg files in my own Illustrator program, it doesn't have the clipping path. I can resave the jpgs as eps files, and the path comes through just fine, but many of my clients can't use eps files and the file sizes of eps files are way too big. I've tried saving the jpg files and opening them up in CS3 and CS6 photoshop/illustrator programs. The clipping path is still in the jpg files when I open them in photoshop; they just seem to disappear when I open the files in Illustrator.
Is there a way to keep the clipping path in a jpeg file when using it in Illustrator?

JPG files cannot have a clipping path. Save as a PNG file from Photoshop for a transparent background.

Why is the version file smaller than the original file, although I didn't make changes in the file? And why is the keywords don't exporting with original files?

Hi! Why is the version file smaller than the original file, although I didn't make changes in the file? And why is the keywords don't exporting with original files?

Wild guess: you're using the the wrong export settings. You'll need to tell us more before we can help you - like the export settings you're usng, the size and format of the originals etc.

Why doesn't flash player stay installed and why does the saved file disappear.

Why doesn't flash player stay installed and why does the saved file disappear. I have downloaded and installed flash player several times on my Win7 Vaio laptop. I have uninstalled and deleted all versions. I am the administrator and I have also turned off my Security Software, but the same thing keeps happening over and over. The Java Script is enabled and I have tried both downloading via IE and firefox. It is rediculous that it keeps disappearing and I keep getting messages that the newest version is needed. I am downloading directly from adobe and they say it is the latest. Getting very frustrated. They ask if we have any problems when we go to the finish line, but there is no place for comments. I guess they don't really care if it works or not.

So is it actually installed, or is it not? If not, download and run the offline installers:
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
If it still does not work correctly, check

In Firefox also check if the Shockwave Flash plugin is enabled.

You need Lightroom 5.5 or later (the most current version is 5.7.1). This is a free update if you have already purchased an earlier version of Lightroom 5.

Try turning off GPU support in your Photoshop's preferences performance section. Also check that you have installed the latest device driver installed for your GT 970 adapter and that all CS6 updates are installed... Your CS6 should be version 13.0.1.3....

I have one album named "iPad". I don't recall how it got there, where it is there by default or if I created it. Nothing in this album shows a trash can in either full or thumbnail view - I can only edit or share or add to.
In full view mode, when I click on "edit" the upper left shows "cancel". The other greyed out options next to "cancel" are "undo" and "revert to original". The bottom shows the usual photo editing tools, but no "edit". Most of the other pictures show the trash can, which is located on the bottom right corner in camera roll in full view mode. In thumbnail mode when I click "select" on the upper right corner and choose a photo the trash can appears on the upper left corner". This all seems normal. However, the "iPad" album behaves different.

Why shrinking the data file is bad?

Hi All,
Why shrinking the data file is bad?
If it is bad, Then why SQL server has this option?

There are several reasons why shrinking is bad. One of the reasons were recorded already by Louis Jordan around 1950 where he sang What's the Use of Getting Sober, when You Are Gonna Get Drunk Again?" That is, why shrink something that will grow
again? Growing a database file takes some resources, since it has to be zero-initialised. For a data file this can be avoided by granting the service account for SQL Server the permission "Perform Volume Operations" (if I recall the name correctly).
For a log file it is unevitable. While SQL Server grows the file, this causes a standstill for the process that triggered the file to grow, and can easily cause a bigger outage.
Another reason that shirnk is bad is that it adds a lot of fragmentation to the database. In difference to the above, there is no reason it has to be that way. It's simply not an optimal implementation.
Shrinking can be really poor when you have big LOB columns.
So why does shrink exist? Because sometimes, shrinking a data file or a log file is a perfectly legit operation. Say that you have a transaction database, and you decide to move transactions that are more than 12 months old to an archive database,
and you also implement a process to move data to the archive database on quarterly basis. Before you implemented the archive database, the transaction database was 1.5 TB, but after you moved ten years worth of data, you now have a 250 GB database. In this
case, it would be perfectly reasonable to shrink the data file to, say, 300 GB to make it more managable.
Or say that you make a change to your reindex job so that it runs with bulk_logged recovery rather than full. This may permit you to reduce the size of the log file with 50% (a number taken out of thin air).
There are lot of other situations, but the key is: you have reason to believe that the data file will stay within the size you shrink it to. Some people are obesseed with space and shrink whenever they get the occasion, but that is a bad idea.

Why are the DNG files from my RW2 raw files are so large (37MB)?

I have a fairly new Panasonic Lumix LX5. I've recently converted a few files to DNG.
They're turning out to be @ 37MB, over three times larger than the original file.
I'm not embedding the original raw files in the DNG.
NEF files I convert from my Nikon D2x are around 9.5MB.
I'm running Mac OS 10.5.8, DNG v 6.6 and also use PS CS5.5 and Lightroom 3.0.
Any ideas??

Thanks R_Kelly!
I was using the DNG converter app.
I just tried converting a RW2 raw file by saving it in from the ACR window in CS5 with your recommended settings:
Compatibility 5.4 and later
Jpeg preview:medium size
without orginal raw file embedded.
This yielded a 9.7MB DNG file. Yeah!!
So I went back and tried a couple using the DNG converter app.
With compatbility set to 4.6 & later, the converted files are 37MB.
But with compatiblity set to 5.4 & later files are 9.7 MB.
This is the same when using either the app or from ACR.
So the difference here is the compatiblity setting.
Does anyone know why this happens??
