Re: Downloading jpeg files to Mark IV

2006-09-07 by jheitzeb1

Gene,

Only the .jpg files show up in the "My Picture" folder, but the disklavier tablet thinks there 
is one extra blank picture for everyone that I added.  I do not see these blank pictures in 
the folder "My Picture" on the disklavier when using wifi.

How would I delete the resource fork file of the jpeg file?  Is there something I need to do 
or a special jpeg format that I should be using.  I had been reducing the raw file (original 
digital camera photos) using Photo Elements to 800 x 600 resolution and tried saving 
using all three options in Photo Elements for jpeg.   None seemed to work.  Had better 
luck exporting from iPhoto at 800 x 600 resolution and then resaving as jpeg in Preview 
app.  Got everything cleaned up and then I decided to test another method and now have 
one phantom file that I can't seem to get rid of.  Any suggestions?

I'm wondering if I dumped everything from that folder and then added the new files if that 
would work to clean up the phantom file that now exists. 



Thanks,
Joan

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
