Reply:Mac has iPhoto on it.





Use it.





Unfortunately, there are not that many free programs for Mac computers .. not a large enough customer base to make it worth it to the programmers.

What's the difference between home and business antivirus software?
The link below shows you the difference





between the free edition and pro edition





of AVG.The level of protection i understand





is the same,main thing is 24/7 tecnical help





which a lot of people seem to need with AVG.





This will vary with different companies.





See 2nd link for difference at Avira.
Reply:i think it's the license thing.. mostly if it's for home use it's more cheaper or in the case of avast , it's free for home use. coz the ruling for licenses is one installer/cd/dvd per one pc


Best way to reduce colors in Photoshop or another software?

Hello,





I need to reduce colors from photos to like 40-60 for a project. It is very important though that the quality of the picture stays as good as possible.





Are there more effective ways to do this beside choosing Indexed Colors in Photoshop?





Using some Blur or other filters before reducing colors?





Is there any other software which is better fit for this job?





Any tricks are very appreciated!

Best way to reduce colors in Photoshop or another software?
Hi. I read some books and do not remember there is another way. But when saving as GIF files, remeber to check "Preserve Exact Colors".


You can also go to File%26gt;Save for Web%26gt; then select in flyout menu on right (small triangle) - Select All Web Safe Colors, and eventually choose colors. If there are noise problems, try checking Diffusion, instead of No Dither on the left side, above the color palette.


When You select 32 colors in po-up at right, eventually add also Restrictive (Web) instead of Perceptual 1 pop-up window above previous.


All I talk here is about CS2 - I did not have earlier versions.


I cannot help You more. Sorry


Ciao
Reply:lower the saturation.


go to image----adjustments----hue/saturation
Reply:In Photoshop I go to "Hue/Saturation" under image-adjustments and lower the saturation level. Hope that helps.
Reply:If you want to reduce the overall color in an image in Photoshop, find the saturation slider. I can't remember what menu it is under.


Search saturation in Help. First make a copy of your image, so you always have the original to go back to if you want.
Reply:I use image adjust contrast to brightness, level, color balance, even selective color





But most of the time I use color balance so can adjust the midtones, shadow and highlights, then maybe a little of contrast/brightness
Reply:1. Open image in Photoshop


2. Press CNT+U and change color depth, save it


3. Than press CNT+L and improve brightness (best options is to click on AUTO)


..........you are done !! Goodluck
Reply:instead of going to image %26gt; adjustments %26gt; hue/saturation,


you can still achieve the same effect by going to Layer %26gt; New Adjustment Layer %26gt; Hue/Saturation (and then press ok to the popup menu).


by creating a new adjustment layer, your original image is untouched. it creates a new layer that makes it have whatever effect you're putting on it, which means it can also be adjusted. by going through image%26gt;adjustments%26gt;hue/saturation, when you change some stuff around and press "ok", you changed the original image, so you can't go back and make it 20% more saturated. you'll just be adding on to it. while making a new adjustment layer can be edited any time.


also, if you notice in the "hue/saturation" panel, at the very top, it says "Edit: Master". you can click the scroll down arrow and it will show an array of colors. choose one and play around with it and see if you like it. try fiddling around with each color individually instead of just changing the entire "master" and you will get a different result =)


have fun!


Where to get Replacement installation software for a digital camera?

Okay so my sister gave me a camera which is a canon powershot sd630 digital elph.





But the thing is that she doesnt have the software or instructions anymore :\





I was wondering how i can go about getting


replacement software?

Where to get Replacement installation software for a digital camera?
Frankly, you'll be better off not bothering with the software. The computer software for your camera is clunky and very limited at best. You will be better off using a flash card reader to download your images quickly and easily into your computer and any simple digital editing program to prepare your images for e-mailing and printing.


If you have a relatively new computer, you may have combination flash card readers built into it (many newer computers do) that will fit your flesh card. If there is not one built into your computer, they can be had at very reasonable prices from almost any store which sells cameras or computers. If you have to buy a plug-in flash card reader, I suggest you bring along your camera or the flash card from your camera when you buy it to make sure you get the right size card reader. The card reader will plug into any USB port in your computer and should require no additional software.


Somewhere on your computer you are likely to also find a digital image editing program. If you don't have one do an online search for "Digital Image Editing Programs". There are many good and free or very inexpensive digital image programs available for downloading.
Reply:Below is a link to the canon site where you can download the manual:





Also at the same link if you choose your OS, it will allow you to download 2 different software titles (Not sure if this is what you want).
Reply:The Canon site has the stuff to download. If you're in the United States, the link is below. If you're outside the United States, check out

check on your country, and follow the downloads link to you specific camera.

What is the best Virus Software to purchase?

What is the best Anti-virus software I could buy, one that is cheap and excellent? I heard AVG is best, should I buy that or is there a better and cheaper software?

What is the best Virus Software to purchase?
There's another good free anti-virus out there called Avast - http://www.avast.com/. You can always purchase for a full version for additional features or continue using for free with a home serial key (obtained through free registration with them).
Reply:yep avg is the best norton slow's down your computer
Reply:AVG is the best in my experience. The personal version for home use can be downloaded and used for free legally.

Reply:Mcafee virus scan is te best on the market.
Reply:easily Nod32, if not the current best always ranked in the top few which makes it extremely reliable. Also extremely fast. Currently i think it is Avira followed by Nod32. But Nod32 has been reliable for years.
Reply:AVG is probably the best, even the free version is very, very good. Avast! isn't as good, it is more intensive on your computers resources but it is better than Norton or McAfee. Never ever use Norton or McAfee, they drastically slow your computer down and ends up just being really, really annoying.


Good Luck.
Reply:zone alarm try it for free for 2 week and you will see why its good you can download it for www.zonealarm.com
Reply:not sure about any other i bought mcafee and it work great
