    Change the screen resolution

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

  • Windows 7 backup is much bigger than my source files.

    I have a new Dell Precision M6500 running Windows 7 pro 64-bit. Hard drive is 500 GB and I configured the backup and restore feature to backup to a hard disk of 500 GB eSata extrnal.

    I'm just back up my data to 'library' files which explain probably about 150 GB. However, very quickly the external 500 GB drive is full

    "After the backup is apparently running for a few hours I get the message:

    "Check backup of disk space - that your backups are being saved on the disk is not enough free space".

    I click on options, manage disk space for backup, it is said I can free disk space by removing backups of data files, but there is a "period of backup" listed

    Under the Backup Configuration, I checked that only a set of 150 GB of data files are checked to save and "include an image of disk system" is not checked

    Hi casidougal,

    I suggest you check the settings below.

    To view and manage your backup disk space

    (a) open backup and restore by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, click system and Maintenanceand then clicking backup and restore.

    (b) click on Manage space. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    (c) now under data backup file, click view backups.

    Now, you would see the list of backup the value entered for each full backup, it should argued to the top entries.

    You should also see the set of data that has been saved, do you think that any new data that has been defined by the options?

    You can also view the contents of the Windows backup logs. They can be found at this place C:\Windows\Logs\WindowsBackup.

    Should what backup settings I use to maximize my disk space?

  • Why is the catalog in Lightroom much bigger than 5 Lightroom CC

    I'm experimenting Lightroom CC on a Mac. I used Lightroom for years and Lightroom 5 catalog consisted of about 4 GB. When it was converted by the CC, it is now almost 16 GB. The settings for previews are the same and the number of photos and videos in the catalog is the same. Any ideas?

    Thank you all for the suggestions. I just renamed the file lrcat previews and restarted Lightroom and the Preview file has been recreated and is now a very reasonable 15MB. I assumed that the previews need has been corrupted somehow during the process of upgrading of 5 CC problem sorted. Thanks again. John

  • video clip of load in the much bigger than 100 preview window &

    I use Premiere Pro on a Mac. That has started to happen, is that when I drag a clip form the window source on the timeline, the video clip in the preview window is huge - from most large it displayed in the source window. I don't want to have to go in and resize each clip. What is the cause and how to fix it?  Also, I went into preferences and pliers to adjust the value.

  • The size of the file using Premiere pro CC 2014 exported media is much more important than the estimate, is also much bigger than the first CS 6?

    I used the preset H, 264 1080HD Youtube to export video. The estimated size is MB 7308. {(après que je réduis le nitrate)} The final size is 11,18 GB.

    Why are so many different things? Befor I use the CS6 first for size simial use the same export format is about 6 GB.

    Firstly, the estimated file size just an estimate based primarily on a combination of bitrate and duration. The actual size can vary considerably, in large part on the amount of change from image to image throughout the video. For example, if you encode two clips for a period identical to exactly the same settings, the only difference being the nature of the content - say on is an interview with talking head shot with the camera locked on a tripod, while the other is images skateboard turned into pocket - size of the two files of outputs that result will be widely divergent.

    As for the comparison between CS6 and CC2014, note that the settings for the presets have been changed. For example, YouTube 1080 h.264 presets ranged from 8Mbps to 16.

  • Optimized file records * much * bigger than the said fireworks will be

    Then, I scanned a few sheets of paper with hand on them. Restaurant placed a Fireworks file, compressed opacity these and drop way down. As a PNG-8 with four colors, Fireworks fire says the image is 17.13 k and will have 2 seconds to download speed 56 k.

    So I save it, and then check the file and find that my 17 k file is actually 696 k. What I am doing wrong?

    I tried to save several times, but every time I save the file, it's huge. (The first time I saved this image, said fireworks was about 20K in size, but the file measured only 1.4 MB!)

    I ahd this annoyance with the other images, but never on this size. A Jpeg photo that says Fireworks is 20 K records in the high 20s, for example. So I know Fireworks is not accurate.

    But accuracy aside, I can't simply reduce this file to a usable size. I don't know how else to change the image to a smaller size.

    You must EXPORT it rather than save it.

    Hello. I can't understand why the swf file is so small. I published it to 100% width & height (I want it to be full screen) but it appears only as 216 pixels maximum.

    It's probably just a setting somewhere that I'm on.

    I'm the see up to 100% in Chrome.

    However, as I look at the code, it seems that you did not place the typical html and style body that is needed to make 100% width/height:

    HTML, body {}

    height: 100%;

    padding: 0;

    Hello

    Right-click on an empty part of your desktop, and then click Properties. Click on the settings tab, drag the slider to the right. This should give the native resolution of your monitor. If not you may need to get the latest drivers for the graphics card.

    If that makes things too small, you can try to slide to the left to get a lower resolution but I suggest using only a resolution that maintains the same ratio as the native resolution of your screen.

  • The Gmail screen has very little text. It's barely legible. (Google apps and sites nother) screens are fine

    Run Firefox 17.0 under Windows 7. The size of the text on the screens of GMail is small enough to be almost unreadable. Other applications of Google and other sites in general on Firefox are very good. Gmail on Internet Explorer is also very good. How can I increase the size of the text on the screens of Gmail. Using the Firefox Options for the size and font of text has no effect.

    Have you tried the Firefox zoom feature? Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages
    You can "zoom in" all sites using this add-on: NoSquint. After setting your overall zoom level, you can still adjust the zoom on different sites.
    After the installation of NoSquint, click on the % in the bar of the add-on call site preferences, then click the global settings button, then the zoom tab.

    If you do not have the bar the module displayed, you can click the new tab button ("+") or a box empty bar tab to the right of the item and choose the module bar on the shortcut menu.

    You can experiment with sizes greater than 125%, but I wouldn't not much higher than 150% unless you have a large screen high resolution.

    If there are sites that are still a concern, feel free to post their URLs.

    It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high.

    • Use Restore or expand in the context menu of the taskbar icon to set the focus to the Firefox application if you do not see the window of Firefox.
    • Open the system menu of the window of Firefox via Alt + space and see if you can move and resize the window (use the arrows on the keyboard).

    If it works, then first close all other open windows of Firefox and then close Firefox via "file > exit/Quit" to save the setting.

    PLEASE HELP ME...

    It's the material. Can you connect to an external monitor? If the output is OK outside then we have reduced to a bad display cable or a bad screen. Much more likely the latter.

    You have the 15.6-inch 1366 x 768 screen, which is the most common type. Very cheap and replacing the screen is easier than you think. We will also need to assess the problem of screen hinge and eventually replace the hinge.

    After return with the country you live so interested to continue repair of mutual assistance. We can you link to a video and you will help to find the part.
