resizing pictures, now I have a lot of copies

I'm done with 3,4,5 or 6 copies of each photo I have! How can I remove duplicates?

Unwanted copies have file names with
copy "prefix of"?

Example: Copy of IMG_1455.JPG

If_yes_maybe the following tutorial, I wrote
for XP offers a few ideas:

Here's how to reproduce the unwanted
copy of...

Hold down your CTRL key and select multiple files...

Place your pointer over the selected group
(holding the key ctrl) and left click / drag
the group even just the slightest bit... now
release the mouse button.

Oooops... multiple copies...

Maybe the following will help:

Sometimes most of the person who
trying to select multiple by holding the CTRL
or the SHIFT key down while clicking on the left to select the
image files.

Copies are created when you are unable to
completely release the mouse button before
you move the pointer to another file. When a group
the selected file is dragged... even the slightest
release the mouse button will produce a bit...
copies of all the files previously highlighted.

It's a little easier if you have your folder
Options set at single click... that way you can
select/deselect a file with just a mouse more
and you don't have to click. For multiples you
I have to keep... CTRL or Shift.

Do not click on... no slip... no copy... maybe that of
your solution. To adjust the click...
Open a folder and go... Tools / folder
Options / General tab... Check... 'single click '.
To open an item"/ apply / OK.

How do I find and remove unwanted 'copies '.
of your image files.

Open the folder that the images are saved in and
on the left, click on the button 'Search' in your toolbar.

(If you view the files from a montage
program and do not know where the record is... right
Click on one of the image files and the menu...
choose... Properties. The path to the folder will be
in the tab 'General' to 'Place').

In the research pane select... "All files and folders".

In the "All or part of the file name" field. Come in...

a copy of

Now... on the left, click on the search"" button.

When the search is complete... go to... Edition / select all...

Then go to... Remove / delete.

You will see a dialog box asking if you are sure
you want to delete the files, click Yes.

Now... on the left, click on the 'Back' button in your toolbar.

Now the remaining files should be your originals.

If you delete the wrong files... recover from
your basket now.

    I have a bunch of pictures that I have stored in Picasa. Most of them is now missing. I do not remove them. I contacted picasa & requessted help and some kind of answers. They completely ignored me. Please help me to recover my photos. I'm sick about it! Thank you ~!

  • I have a lot of trouble recently with colors of the range. My software is updated, my system is calibrated with Datacolor, as in many years with her, but now I norticed much more than before out-of-gamut color images when checking this. Do not print.

    I have a lot of trouble recently with the release of the color range in Photoshop CC. The software is updated. I used to the Datacolor years to calibrate the system, and it worked well always. But now I noticed that I have a lot more images with out-of-gamut colors, and it prints wrong. Is this a problem with Adobe? The rest of my equipment is the same. Any help? I'd appreciate comments. Thank you, Emilio.

    First, the range warning applies to the proof profile that you put in place, under test format. If this is not the profile that you want to print with, there is no relevance.

    Second, range warning is a very large and imprecise indication, and I would just turn off. It shows what is out of range, but not how much. There are better ways, like proofing (even once, test format, toggle with ctrl + Y).

    You can also convert a copy of the file to print your profile and look at the histogram. If you have severe cuts, you can adjust the file accordingly.

    Third, there are people who feel the effect of threshold is best handled by the profile. In other words, doing nothing, just convert and done. I'm not one of them, just thought I would mention it.

    ------------------

    Just to put us all on the same page, here are the basics:

    There are three different color profiles here. The document profile, the profile of the monitor and the printer/paper/ink profile. If all of these profiles are good, the results will be consistent and predictable.

    So to start with the document profile. These are important parameters in the PS color settings dialog box:

    It can't be Adobe RGB, but there must be a standard color space (sRGB, Adobe RGB or ProPhoto).

    Then the monitor profile. The Spyder software everything for you, and Photoshop uses this profile to display the file. You don't need to do anything once the software ran - it is all set up automatically.

    You can check in Windows color management has the right profile is configured by default:

    Thirdly, the profile of the printer. It's one that refers to the book as "Xxx of Epson Premium glossy", or all that apply. You choose this profile in the dialog box print in Photoshop, and then you go in the printer driver ("settings") and ensure that color management is turned off it. You don't want a double color management.

    If it withdraws, and it still does not seem good, get back with more details.

    Oh, by the way - have you got your NEC monitor with Spectraview calibration software included? If you did, it is greatly preferable to the Spyder software for reasons more than I have space to list here. You can still use the Spyder probe, at least if it's generation 3, 4 or 5. Earlier versions are notoriously few reliable and also not designed for wide gamut displays.

    Hi FARKLE111,

    If you have the Firefox menu at the top left, press Alt to temporarily show the menu bar. Go in view > toolbars and enable the bar of Navigation, the bookmarks bar and menu bar. This will give you a more familiar look for Firefox.

    You can also read the Knowledge Base article the Navigation buttons such as back, home, bookmarks and recharge are missing. There are lots of good information in there also.

    If this does not work, you can try the cor - el tips in this thread.

  • I recently had to have my rebuilt computer caused by a virus. Now I have Mozilla Firefox with ABP and noticed that Mozilla has a built-in phishing and virus program. Do I need another antivirus program and if so, the one that works best with Firefox?

    I recently had to have my rebuilt computer caused by a virus. Now I have Mozilla Firefox with ABP and see that Firefox has a program's built-in phishing and viruses. Do I need a program additional anti-malware? If so, the one that works best with Firefox? Seems put more you on these things the you have more trouble.

    The anti-phishing protection and malware that Firefox uses checks against a list of websites that have been reported to contain a form of malware and then alerts you. Firefox itself does not scan files to see if they contain viruses/malware. You still need a form any anti-virus and anti-malware protection. You must also use a firewall.

    As for which is better, you are likely to get many different answers, it's a topic that generates a lot of discussion. A product one person loves will be hated by someone else. I use Microsoft Security Essentials as well as Windows Firewall.

  • All written in Spanish? I have an IPhone 6. I'm traying, as I did in the past, my photos and videos from my phone to my laptop. I have done several times before. Today, he finds only 8 pictures when I have 600 ¡TKS for your help

    (1) I'm trying to transfer my photos from my IPhone to my laptop I did before. This time, my laptop only locates 8 IPhone 6 photos when I have about 600 on it (a long journey, long illness and recently became the only grandfather done I took this time so long this time).

    I tried to send back their of my IPhone in the mail of the laptop. In addition, to be a long waste of time, my photos arrive without order of photo I took, which makes very difficult to reorganize in the correct order, I took them. I don't know how to solve. I'm doing the right to 'synchronize' I tunes and my mobile.

    Pls help

    (2) in addition, I have another type of problems with my IPhone 6. I went this morning official Apple personal assitance but they offer me to do this here. "We only repair, but not fix softwore problems?" ¿ ?).

    I had 300 songs. Normally, my average photo stores about 150/200. Free space available aprox. : 2 GB (16 GB per device, 11 actually). Suddenly, there are a few days my started devide "complain". Says that space is not available. It's true that I increase my photos and videos to about 500. I deleted 225 songs. Now I have 3 GB of free space, although the device appears 4.5 GB occupied by "documents and data" and 1.5 as 'other '. I don't know what that means. I only keep photos, videos; I reduced the nr. space music and I hold not spam, and my APP aren't too 1.94 GB. How do I check the documents, data, and 'other' to delete and protect a lot more space?

    Sorry for my bad English. Pls if you're the kind to answer me, to make 'short and sweet', I mean, not only not too sophisticated. If you spoke Spanish... bingo

  • Now that you see the RAM, now you have not

    I have a strange problem of RAM: My D10 came with 4 GB of RAM, and shortly after that I bought, 14 months ago about, I added an another 4 GB Crucial RAM. Up until maybe a month ago, the system has seen all the 8 GB with no complaints. But in the last month, half the time the system sees 4 GB and the rest of the time he sees 8 GB. It's totally random.

    I get an error of POST 184 - sometimes. I've restored the BIOS default factory - no effect.

    I went down the BIOS of 2XKT30 to 2XKT29, thought that might be the problem - nope. I couldn't find all the earlier versions of the BIOS, otherwise I would try them.

    I've run Lenovo system Toolbox and MemTest86, which do not show any problem with RAM, if I run when the system recognizes 4 GB or 8 GB.

    I uninstalled the RAM and reinstalled (even though in the same locations;) I'm going to try to rearrange the sticks, but I don't have a lot of confidence that will make anything). Any different on it?

    I updated my video drivers, thinking maybe that is related. no effect.

    I disabled the TPM chip (just struggling at this point). no effect.

    Anyone have any better ideas?

    It turns out * was * Crucial ram modules. I went back to Crucial RAM (which was excellent, btw) and got the replacement modules; now all the 8 GB appears constantly. Thanks for the tip.

  • Have a lot of digital photos stored as .bmp, somehow, I lost the extension ".bmp" on their part.

    Original title: Compvet

    I have a lot of digital pictures stored as .bmp, somehow, I lost the extension ".bmp" on their part. I can select all of them and "Rename" add the .bmp extension, but it will take hours. Is it possible that I can select and add the extension?

    Are you sure that the extension is not simply hidden?  You can check this in Folder Options > view > "Hide extensions of known file types".  What happens when you double-click one of these files?

    Are all the photos in the same folder or in the same folder structure?
