How to Combine 2 Pics in a MacBook (10 Steps)


Purchase, download and install an image editing software application or free trial. Adobe's (adobe.com) Photoshop is a professional tool available for download at the developer's website. GIMP (gimp.org) provides much of the same functionality as Photoshop, and you can download it for free from the Mac OS X page for the application. Other image editing software exists for the Mac OS X as well, including the simplified Pixelmator (pixelmator.com) and Apple's official application, Aperture (apple.com).
Open your image editing program. Click the 'File' menu and click 'Open File.'
Locate the first image on your computer. Click to highlight the image file. Take note of the pixel size of the image. This will be displayed as a set of dimensions listed beneath the file name.
Click 'Open' to display the picture. Repeat the process to locate and open the second image in a new tab or window.
Click the 'Image' menu and click 'Canvas Size.' A menu displays the current dimensions for the image. Determine the best location for the picture you want to add, for example, whether it belongs on the top, bottom, left or right of the second picture. Click to use the anchor tool to determine where the existing image will be positioned on the new canvas.
Increase the width, height or both dimensions of the image by the exact pixel size of the first image. The dimension you need to increase depends on the size of the second image, as well as the placement of the new image. For example, you would increase both the width and height dimensions if you wanted to position a tall image on the side of a shorter image, whereas you would only need to increase the height dimension if you were adding a tall image on top of a wider image.
Return to the image that still has its original dimensions. Press 'Apple' plus 'A' to select the entire image. Press 'Apple + C' to copy.
Click to return to the second image. Press 'Apple + V' to paste the image.
Click and drag the image into position in the extended canvas space.
Click the 'File' menu and click 'Save As.' Type a name and select a location for the file and click 'OK.'

How to Burn a DVD With a Mac (7 Steps)


To burn data: Insert a blank disc. A dialog box will come up asking to name your disc and select the proper format for your disc such as picture, audio or data.

Click File at the top of the screen, followed by 'Burn Disc' from the drop-down menu.

Select 'Create New Project' or 'Open Existing Project.' Select 'Open Existing Project' if you already have a video file on your computer that requires burning. Locate the folder the video file is in and double click the file to open it.

To add a theme, click 'Themes' at the bottom of the iDVD menu, followed by scrolling through the different themes. When you have found the preferred theme, click OK.
Check your project for errors. Click the 'Map' button and look for any exclamation points. These exclamation points represent errors that should be fixed before burning. Once you have corrected the errors, save your project and click the Burn button located at the bottom of the iDVD program.
