What are the meanings of the iPhone Photos files.

I am struggling to understand the logic behind the records in the Photos of the iPhone. Unfortunately, Apple chose the worst possible name for its application, any research on 'Photos' results in millions of useless results. After an update of a system, pictures made several copies of existing pictures so that now my storage is full. I don't know how it works. For example, I tried to delete the photos in 'Selfies', but for some reason, it cannot afford to do. I tried to upload photos on mac, but now in Photos on mac means that the option 'delete downloaded photos' is absent, and photos can be downloaded from the "Camera roll" record, whatever it. It seems that I have zero control over the photos. What I want to do is to understand the logic behind the Photos from the iPhone, I want to remove copies of existing photos, and learn how to transfer photos from iPhone Photos to mac Photos.

How to use pictures, it works at all?

Photos made several copies of existing pictures so that now my storage is full.

Synchronize you the photos on your iPhone during a sync with iTunes?  Can't delete photos from the iPhone, if you are synced with iTunes. These photos will be deleted, if you synchronize again and select an empty folder to sync.

What I want to do is to understand the logic behind the Photos from the iPhone, I want to remove copies of existing photos, and learn how to transfer photos from iPhone Photos to mac Photos.

Photos on the iPhone and the Mac is now your photos in a library. This library is a database with several different views of the same photos.  The photos are stored only once, but predefined albums show you the pictures grouped by various criteria in order to access and find quicker.

  • Moments, collections, the years are grouping your photos of the site and sort them by date, oldest first.
  • All photo album shows all the photos, but sorted by the date you imported, so you will find always the more recently added photos at the bottom of the album.
  • The smart album 'Selfies' shows all photos taken with the front camera.
  • The panoramic album shows all the photos with extreme proportions.
  • The album film shows the pictures that were taken with the iPhone/iPad, transferred with My Photo Stream, or were recorded in the film, but not the photos sync with iTunes.

He has more albums predefined are special-purpose.  And you can create your own album to group your photos as you wish. Move albums in a folder, so you can more easily find your albums.  A photo can be in a lot of albums, but is only stored once. The albums do not need a lot of extra storage, because they refer to photos in the photo library.

To save your photos on your see Mac options here: keep your photos safely stored and updated on all your devices - Apple Support

You can use iCloud photo library and synchronize devices with iCloud, or connect by USB iPhone and download the photos to your library of Photos on the Mac. It works best if you want to use iCloud photo library.

    I don't know what they are. What are in?

    Basically, you can delete all the .tmp files. Note, however, that
    Although 102,000,000 may seem like a large number, it's actually a
    small amount of disk space. These days, where you can buy a 250 GB hard
    drive for about US $50, 102MB is about 2 cents worth.

  • What are the font AFM files to?

    Given that Adobe Font Folio provides and as far as I know always provided fonts PostScript Type 1, in its Mac version, with the contour files + a file suitcase per family which supposedly included the metric of fonts in the range of resources, and in his versions of Windows, with contour PFB + metric files PFM files, what have been the AFM file never compatible with? Why Adobe also include those? What have been their alleged use cases? In fact, wasn't every other foundry fonts PostScript Type 1 in the same way? What would we ever need of these AFM files, even back in the day?

    Back in the day, there are applications that have used the .afm files to get beyond metrics to put in the files .pfm on Windows or the screen fonts called on the Mac. And besides, there are also applications that functioned on raw MS-DOS or UNIX that don't support other mechanisms of metrics.

    In addition, ATM (Adobe Type Manager, not the ATM) had the ability to create files .pfm from a combination of the file .pfb and corresponding .inf and .afm files sent in packs of fonts early who often do not have a .pfm file.

    Of course, with fonts OpenType, the need for all other files disappeared.

  • (Mac) What are the commercial Adobe files?

    As a newbie to Adobe products, I don't know about all the files related to my Acrobat Pro.


    And I read that Mac don't like some Java programs.

    Would appreciate any education. Thank you.

    Do not touch anything unless you know what it is and are responsible for working with her.  These are probably not related to Java.

    What you have here several programs uninstall - Adobe AIR is an add-on used by a lot of apps that may have nothing to do with Adobe.

    Adobe Application Manager allows you to download and manage applications and licenses.

    And I hope that the last of them is clear enough.

  • What are the permissions of file for temporary files downloaded from IE?

    I'm just thinking that if I was looking for the web and a file is downloaded from a Web site, can these files in the temporary folder then in turn have permission to do whatever he wants on the computer too much, or is the purpose of these files to make sure that all temporary files downloaded by IE usable only by Internet Explorer. Confused? Made you think.

    In other words, these temporary files are not allowed to be access by any other program other than IE, right?

    Only, I can't find an explanation on the internet, so I thought I would ask here.

    Hello

    Please contact Microsoft Community.

    I understand from the description of the issue, you have any question regarding the temporary files that are downloaded as well as other files.

    Temporary files may or may not affect other programs outside the Internet Explore.

    If logged in as an administrator, these files may be authorized to may changes to other files or programs.

    However, if you use a standard account, they maybe isn't complete or sufficient permissions.

    You can keep safe surfing online as temporary files may contain spyware or viruses.

  • I am creating a flyer and must add five photos to document and resize them to scale.  What are the specific steps?

    I am creating a flyer and must add five photos to document and resize them to scale.  What are the specific steps?

    Without seeing your Flyer available, it is difficult to advise you, but if you want to build the room yourself, illustrated above approach shows how to put an image in the layout, position, and resize it.

    Fig 1. Make a selection on the page layout for the position (and possibly cropped) image format

    Fig 2. Open the image and choose the command selection > all followed by Edit > copy

    Fig. 3. Return to the layout and choose Edition > paste special > paste in the image will be probably larger than your selection when pasted into the Flyer.

    Fig 4. Choose Edition > transform > scale the scale tool appears.

    Fig. 5. Drag the frame to adjust it to a corner of the space of the image

    Fig. 6. Hold down the SHIFT key (to preserve proportion) and drag the farthest corner of scale handle diagonally downwards to reduce the size of the image to fit in the area of selection. Then click on the symbol to Commit in the Options bar to produce the result (Fig 7).

    Repeat for each of the other images...

  • What are the advantages and disadvantages of using iCloud drive (or other Cloud services) compared with iTunes game against external hard drive, Solid State etc. to store my songs iTunes, playlists, ratings etc?

    First question: what are the advantages and disadvantages of using iCloud drive (or other Cloud services) compared with iTunes Match against Solid State external hard drive etc to store my songs iTunes, playlists, ratings etc?

    Please let me know what are the alternatives for storage of my songs, playlists, song etc. other than iTunes game ratings ($ 24.99 / year)?  Is there a way to store all my songs with my song ratings, playlists, etc. with a CD song quality? Most of my (currently 130 GB) songs on my computer are CD quality that I prefer to keep as well as my notes of each song (i.e. 5 * vs. 4 * etc.), playlists, groups (music, classical, popular, country etc.).  What are the advantages and disadvantages to store my iTunes songs while CD quality with my personal notes, reading lists, groupings in the cloud?  ICloud of Apple Drive ($ 2.99 per month or $36 / year for 200 GB) would be the best way to automatically update and maintain my rankings iTunes personal including the future editions of the song etc or using Amazon, IBM, Microsoft etc cloud or an external hard drive SSD would work as well and maybe cheaper?  I currently have my iTunes on a PC of 2007 with vista (I use a 1 8T Western Digital external upward by car for my personal info all over HP, songs, photos etc. which is currently close to 170 GB) but also have an Apple i-phone 6 & I Air cushion.  Although I did not need to have all of my music with all their sides, etc. available on all of my devices at all times as iTunes game, I still would have easy access to information on both my PC and my iPhone or iPad?  Thank you.

    In my opinion?

    I back up my data to an external drive for several reasons.  The first is my data - if I put on the cloud, someone else has control over it, they can see what I have and change the preferences to what they see of marketing.

    Almost as important as that - if I had to rely on the cloud whenever I wanted to update my playlists on my phone, I need a better internet connection I have now (working at sea).  To get the best out of the cloud, you need a solid link to home, work or mobile.

    As a spin-off - I hate the fact that Apple take away a feature in their software updates and then allow an app to be sold in their store to replace this feature - or worse still, some features that were available before the updates are now "cloud only."  And Yes - you have to pay for the cloud.  I like most of the people do not appreciate the 'accomplished fact. "

    From the back of the external hard drive ASI downside, is that to be safe, you need to store outside in a separate computer place.  If keep you them together, if one is lost, probably, they are both.  That is to say for me a full backup before you travel, then a new upward as soon as I go home.  Downside is how much data may be lost between the two back ups if I needed to restore.  For me, its worth the risk.  If I was away and say had bought a ton of new music and couldn't go home anytime soon, I can always head to the store and buy a new external drive, they are massively expensive.  Even if my computer has to go for repair and my remote is to halfway around the world - I want to buy a new one.

    Now, some will say that once you buy a new external, you spend more than you would on a cloud subscription.  It's true, but in the 6 years following the purchase of Mac that I've only had to buy a new external once - so with a little luck and planning - it works.

    I left took well - I am not a subscriber of cloud, nor do I want to be.
