I'm unaware of the avenue to 'punch a few keys' to convert all pictures to jpeg. However, I can provide you with a solution to your problem if you are using a Windows Operating System on your computer.

Follow these instructions:

1) Make sure that all of the photo's that you need converted are ALL in the same folder - and easily to locate - like on your desktop.

2) Download PIXresizer (this is a free program - I use it all the time and it's safe - no adware or spyware.)

Click here: DOWNLOAD [ 3.3 Mb .zip]
or here: http://bluefive.pair.com/pixresizer.htm

3) Once you unzip and install PIXresizer, click on the program icon to open the program.

4) At the top of the program window, click on the "Work with Multiple Files" tab.

5) (Click on the Source button) and locate the folder you have your pictures in.

6) (Click on the Destination button) and choose a folder where your photos will be sent to after being converted to jpeg.

7) Check, Keep 100%

8) Select Format - jpeg

9) Click the 'Save Pictures' button at the bottom of the window.

10) Click on the file where your new pictures have been converted to view them.

You need to read each picture into one of the picture editing programs like Adobe Photoshop, or Corel PhotoPaint and then export them in the desired format.

Investigate what photo editing software might be on your machine.

When I go to view my photos in the camera roll it shows that ther are 2358 photos but they will not display. Download, attachments and facebook photos will display. Could you please help me?

I just addressed this with my wife. Each of these mobile devices utilize file formats that give them an advantage to save, edit, transmit, conserve data space, etc with in their own product line. They are not universal. ie my wife tried to save a bunch of iphone pics from facebook to a disc so she could print off disc at store. The file format was .php. and not a single pic was usable yet the file said they were there. They weren't. I repeated all of her work and saved them all to a new directory as a .jpeg file. To do this, instead of a right click then save as; I double clicked the picture which opened it in a photo editor then right clicked hit save as then changed the file format to .jpeg instead of .php.Could not have been done without a laptop. I don't care how much my techie son says, mobile devices do not do as much as laptops. I hate mobile devices. Hope you found this helpful.

How many pictures does 512 MB hold on SD card

That depends on the number of pixels, the picture format, and JPEG compression if JPEG format. Picture files can be anywhere from under a megabyte to over 30MB depending on the camera, so a 512MB card can hold anywhere from under ten to over five hundred pictures.

If you're asking about a particular camera, please add a comment to this question and specify the make and model.

How do i get a picture the right size to fit on my social media page?

Hi,
if you have a photo in jpeg format then it is possible to save it in jpeg format too but changing the parameter "JPEG quality factor" from 100% to 80% for example. The pixels of photo will be the same but the size smaller. I usually use Microsoft Photo Editor application on my Windows PC:
1- open file
2- save as ...
3- choose jpeg format
4- press button "more"
5- change jpeg quality factor %
6- press save

Bye

What does raw+fine pictures mean?

The raw+fine setting indicates that your camera will take both raw (NEF) and high resolution JPEG pictures with every shot. You can change this to shoot just JPEG or just raw shots using your menu under the little camera icon. Click on image quality and it will give you multiple settings so you can choose only raw or only JPEG. You have three JPEG settings: fine, normal or basic.


I always shoot raw+fine which I think may be the default setting. I use the jpeg pictures for simple and quick editing and I use raw for detailed editing. JPEG pictures deteriorate quickly during editing while raw pictures can handle extensive editing without significant deterioration.

When you shoot raw+fine, it means the camera is actually storing two pictures of the same shot, one in each of the two formats. When you view the pictures in Windows, you can tell the difference between the raw shots and the jpeg shots because the raw shots have a broad black bar across the top and bottom of the picture while the jpeg shots fill the screen.

My Pioneer, DV 400 V, is not able to play Pen drives which are 16 gb...its shows its loading....but never loads the pictures... please help..

I'm going to look into that, but it may have an 8GB limit, or you may simply have too many entries...

Ok, here's a limitation, the device has to be FAT16 or FAT32 formatted, if it's NTFS format, it won't be able to read it.

You may have a corrupt JPEG or a JPEG that has something in the encoding it doesn't undrestand
You may have a corrupt MP3 file.

Step 1 - put the drive in your computer, open up my computer, and right click the drive and click properties. Check to see if it's anything other than fat32 format.

Dump the jpegs off the drive (make sure you have copies). This is easier if you right click the folder, and choose sort by type.

if it still is doing the same thing, start eliminating the MP3s themselves by dumping half of what's left on the drive at a time.

Eventually you will track the issue down!

When i email photo it is too large for receiver to open

Hi I am vortash that's very unusual as most emails will take up to a gig on a download now hot mail ., yahoo .. etc so maybe its the format your trying to send that's the problem .. pictures in BMP bitmap are far larger files than say JPEG or JIF files and most mail servers require Jpeg for photo attachments .. and I do know that some cameras actually load pictures to your computer in Bitmap form .. so you need to change them .. easy enough just save them again but choose Jpeg or Jif compliant and the computer will do the rest .. hope this helps Regards Vortash

Setting the format of the picture i scan

Ok I am not sure why ya scanner won't save in JPEG .. however converting the files to JPEG is relitively "Simple". After saving the Scanned picture.. Open it up in say MS Paint, Painshop etc, then simply choose "Save As.." from the File Menu, and save it as a NEW image file this time with a JPEG extension. IE: origional... picture.png or picture.bmp ... save as ...picture.jpg .. ya should be good to go. :)
