OS X :: How Do I Resize Images On A Mac
Oct 30, 2006
How do I resize images on a mac? I've had my MacBook for 4 months know I never knew how to do this. On Windows in paint all you do is paste the picture and then resize it by dragging the corners, is there a way to do this on macs? I can't seem to find a way to do this in preview. And in Seashore I don't know how to do this unless I manually put in the scale size I want. I simply want to drag the corner of the picture to make it the size I want, how can I do this?

is there a way to resize images in Preview? I have photoshop but it'd be a lot easier to be able to do it quick-like.

I've noticed that finder, automatically saves unnecessary spam images and mixes them in with my important images, is there someway of either adding a spam label, to them, so they end up in another folder, or completely stopping the saving process entirely?

When I receive a jpg (not a jpeg) from a mac via email it wont open in either outlook or picture viewer etc (win xp). But if the same image is sent to any other PC (from the ma user) it opens OK.The added twist. If another pc user opens (which it does with no issues) then closes and sends back to the failing pc it opens with no issues!

My iTunes library is on an external drive, and I borrowed a macbook pro for this trip. The last time I opened iTunes was on my 24" iMac, so the window was pretty big. Now that I opened it on the macbook, with a 15" screen, the bottom is just not on the screen and I have no way to read the corner to scale it down. It stays like this even if I quit and restart.

I managed to make a window slightly bigger than the screen, and now I can't access the 'handle' in the lower right corner to return the window to normal size.
I was using screen sharing from another computer and some strange things were happening, and I ended up with my iTunes window a little bigger than the displayable area on the screen. If I move the window up as high as possible (so that it's up against the menu bar), the bottom edge is just hanging off the bottom of the screen, just far enough that I can't grab the resizing handle.

I could have sworn this was possible and I just can't remember how to do it. In Windows 7, the OS is able to resize the windows to where it splits the screen between the two open windows equally. I could have sworn OS X is able to do the same thing, but I can't remember. I have a lot of papers and careplans to right. Am I wrong or is this not possible?

I was playing with the maximize button on a Finder window a few days ago and toggling it would yield a different size every time (guess I was amused by that). So it go into a state where the resize corner is out of reach always now. Clicking on the maximize button does not change the size at all and just remains there. I want to be able to resize Finder again. How do I do it? For reference, attached is the screenshot of my desktop with Finder window, so you can see what I mean. I am unable to find a way to get it to a stage where the full window can be shown and I can resize it.

I currently have 3 partitions - 50GB OS X (HFS+); 70GB Vista (NTFS); and the rest is in Data (HFS+). I want to shrink Vista's partition by 20GB and add that space to my Data drive. However, OS X can't seem to touch Vista's partition; and when I try to shrink Vista's partition within Vista, it puts the space after Vista's drive (but I need it before Vista's partition).

Is there a terminal command that can be used to resize a program window to it's default size? By this I mean the same size as when you first launched the program.

Have an irritating program that have a portion disappear at the bottom of my screen. I can't resize it and applescript is reporting a problem when I use this sort of code:
set bounds of first window to {0, 0, 200, 200}
What to do? Already tried scrapping the plist and it doesn't work.

I'm in Disk Utility and I can see that the Leopard partition takes up about half of the total disk space. There is nothing else on the disk, the partition just isn't that big. I wanted to expand the partition to fill up the whole disk but I get an error that the partition map is too small or something.

i had my hard drive partitioned in 2 partitions: my lion one and my bootcamp one like this:but as I started installing things in my bootcamp partition i realized i needed more space, so i tried to resize my macintosh hd to a smaller size to enlarge my bootcamp partition, but after i did that and realized I couldn't resize my bootcamp partition with disk utility so i though "well ill just resize my macintosh hd back and that will be it, like i did several times before" but the thing is that disk utility wont let me do so, so now it looks like this:
I have 32gb of unused space i have tried with different things. I have tried with the debug option in the disk utility by tipping "defaults write com.apple.DiskUtility DUDebugMenuEnabled 1" into terminal and mounting my recovery HD and resizing my macintosh hd but it didnt work I have IPartition 3.4.0 in Lion but i cant get it to work because my partitions are from where sytem boots.
ive tried making a start up pendrive but it's a literally never ending process and I also tried making a start up dvd with the 3 different options: when i hit the download template half way to finishing the download says an error has occured and tells me to try again, so i tried with instalation media but it keeps serching and serching without finding the templates. and when i hit the "use existing templates this happens:
i have restarted my mac but the problem remains. i dont know why this is happening because i have had up to 3 partitions with 3 different OS X running perfectly and when I erased the 2 OS X i didnt wanted I could resize my lion partition without any problem.  so what I would like to do is in first instance to resize my bootcamp partition and make it bigger cause I need to install more stuff. i have seen many posts in which the say to run the Recovery HD on the free space left but my partition is smaller than my lion one so i guess i wont be able to do that?
summing it up:
1) i would like to make my bootcamp partition bigger, in case of that no being possible i would like to
2) make my Lion partition (macintosh hd) bigger filling those 32 gb of free space?
Info:
MacBook Pro (13-inch Late 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.3)

In Word, some of my fractions resize to 1 character, like 1/2 and 1/4. But some, like 5/8, 1/8 remain large. How can I get them all to be the same size?

My MacBook Air runs OS X 10.9.3. The HD storage is 256GB. I created windows 7 partition (150GB) by BootCamp when first use. So for OS X, there is 100GB left.Today I add a new partition of 30GB size from Macintosh HD to test installing OS X 10.10 Yosemite DP. The installation was successful, but the new look of OS, including Dock, Font, et al, is awful. I am disappointed and then erase the test partition in 10.9.3.
Naturally I wanted the 30GB back to 10.9.3, and used Disk Utility to resize the Macintosh HD back to 100GB.However, it simply doesn't work, the size of HD remains 70GB, no error message showed. I am sure I followed the support doument to resize partition.
Info:
MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9.3)

I'm not sure if im doing the process right but whenever I try to resize a disk image it doesnt work, I go to disk utility/resize then I select the image I want to resize, nothing happens and I am stuck with the same size that is no longer big enough for my needs.

I have a MBP 2.4 SR and windows XP 32bit is installed on Boot Camp... I would like to know if it's possible to resize the OSX partition to make it bigger... Or do I have to uninstall windows and install it again...? Because I really need the space...
Btw, is there a program that can tell me what optional leopard software (printer drivers etc.) are installed?

Originally I had 2 partitions on the internal 500gb hd in my MBP, one was 455gb the other was 10gb that I used to mess around on. I do not remember what format the small partition was in last, it may have been FAT32. I wanted to delete the small partition and consolidate into one partition. My OSX partition is formatted macos extended. I went to Disk Utility and deleted the small partition by selecting it and clicking "-." There was grey space where the partition used to be. No problems here. Most of the options in Disk Utility are greyed-out.
I cannot select a different partition scheme. When I try to resize the partition either by dragging it to cover the grey space or by manually typing in a larger size, there is no way to apply the changes. The "Apply" button is continually greyed-out (See Image). If I try to resize the partition and then close the window, Disk Utility alerts me that I have an operation in progress and that unsaved changes will be lost. Disk Utility is not letting me resize my main OSX Partition, it appears that I do not have appropriate permissions to make this change - I am the only user/admin of this machine.

Well when I bought my Mac I said "O I bet I'll still use Windows a TON for various tasks." So I made a 100GB Partition for Windows. Now I'm realizing how dumb that was because I only boot into Windows once a month now, and I have only used about 10GB of that Windows Partition. So I have about 90GB free on that partition. Back on the OSX disk I only have 3GB free, and I need space. So, can I make the Windows partition smaller, or do I have to completely wipe it?

I have been experiencing recurrent app crashes on my Macbook 3,1 running 10.6.1 for the past few weeks. Turns out the error was Kernal protection failures with apps like iTunes (latest version), Grab, Carbon Copy Cloner and Super Duper. One recent report of a failure is at the bottom of this post. Thinking my 10.6.1 install had become corrupted (I had done an upgrade to SL), I decided to partition my 320 gig drive and do a erase and install on the new partition. My current install takes up 130gigs. I have tried using Disk Utility to make a new partition of 130, then 120 then 110 then 100 gigs but it fails each time at resizing the current partition.
