I have heard rumors about the new ipad having a retina display, but some Mac bloggers doubt this will be the case for '11. Maybe '12.

iTunes question: The function for burning CDs is no longer there, is there a bug or did Apple take that away?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

It looks like you have to create a playlist first, then you can use the File->Burn Playlist to Disc command.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

How do you find out what dpi a photo is within iPhoto? I know how many pixels by how many pixels the photo is but not the bit depth.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

DPI isn't important until you print it out, Spidra. I mean, as a photo, it just has a width of pixels. You can print it out at 300 DPI or 72 DPI or whatever you want.

Thanks, ita. I figured it was something their designers would be choosing but the person communicating with me knows even less about that stuff than I do.

Is it a scanned photo? In that case it would have a DPI, relative to the size it was as an original, but I couldn't tell you how to find that in iPhoto.

No. It's a photo I took. This publisher is interested in it for a book. And she said "we are looking for most (photos) at 300dpi at 8x10".

300 DPI at 8x10 means 300x8 pixels wide and 300x10 pixels long. So, 2400x3200 pixels.
