Is there a way to control brightness in launchpad?

Is there a way to control brightness in launchpad?   I have two administrative accounts, one in English and the other in Japanese because I sometimes need to install Japanese language software that requires this.  The strange thing is that the launchpad screens are very dark in this second account, and I have not been able to correct this.  Any suggestions?

  • Is there a way to control "sleep" in iOS7?

    Hi everybody,
    Is there a "sleep" control on iOS7? In other words, if I use my iOS device and I don't turn it off and just leave it sitting there on the table, is there a way to control how long it takes until the screen dims and then eventually goes to sleep (where the screen goes black and appears as if it is shut down)?
    My mom's iPad 4 has an Apple brand cover (where the iPad turns on and off as you open/close the cover), and if she leaves the cover open then the iPad screen just stays on (bright). I haven't sat there and timed it, but I know it stays on for quite a long time.
    Is there a way to control these things in iOS7? Thanks!

    Smitty195,
    Not sure if you ever figured this out. I was looking at my phone figured it out so that I could clarify. The answers above didn't really make sense themselves.
    Under Settings>General>Auto Lock ...... This will make your phone "sleep" after the time specified (go to black screen). This has little to do with the Passcode. This is just to make your phone "sleep".
    Under Settings>General>Passcode Lock ..... This will determine how long before your phone asks for a Passcode when you "Slide to unlock".
    If you set your phone to "sleep" ("Auto Lock") after 1 minute, and set your "Passcode Lock" to "Require Passcode" After 15 min., your phone will "sleep", and when you wake it up, if 15 minutes has not passed, you will "Slide to unlock", but not have to input your Passcode.
    I hope this helps to clarify!
    Thanks,

  • Is there a way to control the number of concurrent SMTP connections on Database Mail?

    Las week Rackspace started controlling the number of concurrent SMTP connections and we are now getting the following message when we send as little as 15 messages at a time using Database Mail:
    Exception Message: Cannot send mails to mail server. (Service not available, closing transmission channel. The server response was: 4.7.0 smtp13.relay.dfw1a.emailsrvr.com Error: too many connections from IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)
    We are using SQL Server 2005 and Windows 2003 and we have been doing this since 2006 with no problems
    Is there a way to control the number of concurrent SMTP connections used by Database Mail or the Database Mail external executable DatabaseMail90.exe?

    Hi rkohler,
    Usually, we can use the Database Mail Configuration Wizard or the Database Mail stored procedures to determine the server name and port number for the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server . In the SMTP server points, we can set or increase the number
    of concurrent connections.
    There is similar issue about database email on SQL Server 2005, you can refer to the following post.

  • Is there any way to control the volume on my Apple TV?

    Here's the scenario: I have a small amplifier under my couch that controls the speakers connected to my Apple TV. When I use Airplay from my iPhone to listen to music, I'm able to control the volume right from the music App on my phone- this is perfect because I don't like to reach under the couch to change the volume. However, there are two scenarios when I cannot seem to adjust the volume anywhere except on the amp. These are:
    First: Using Airplay while playing a video from my MacBook Pro to the Apple TV. In this case, the volume slider in iTunes suddenly has a little lock icon on it and is unadjustable. Is there any way to unlock the volume?
    Second: When using the Apple TV directly to play any media- music or movies. The volume up and down buttons on the Apple TV don't control the volume. I'm forced to reach under the couch to adjust the volume- which happens quite frequently. Is there any way to control the output volume of the Apple TV?
    The lack of volume control has been super disappointing. I've been a (multiple) airport express user for years so kind of expected Airplay to work the same for video- with the ability to control the volume from whatever device was transmitting. Can anyone help me?

    Andrew- this is how I would expect things to work. However, when I use airplay from my iPhone to say, play a youtube video, the volume on the phone is suddenly rendered useless and I'm forced to adjust the amplifier. When I just play audio from the phone, the volume works.
    It's the same on my macbook pro. If I mirror the screen, my computer's volume affects the speakers volume. However, if I am in itunes and play a movie and use airplay for that, I get a lock on the volume. Is this a setting somewhere?

  • Is there a way to control "push" page transitions when using up/down keys to navigate a PDF?

    I have a multi-page PDF designed with push page transitions. When using the forward/back arrow keys or the interactive buttons I have designed on the page, the push navigation direction changes whether one is moving forward in the PDF or back. However, if I use the mouse scroll button or up/down arrow keys to navigate, the push navigation only animates from the same direction...and therefore makes it look as if the user is only moving "forward" in the book. Is there a way to control this effect more precisely?
    I am creating the document with InDesign CC 2014, adding the page transitions within the file, and exporting to interactive PDF using the setting "Page Transitions: From Document".

    I don't think the iPad has it in it to control another device. Unless there's an app for it to be a remote control, but I'd imagine that it woudl be very brand specific.
    You can certainly experiment with the VGA or HDMI adapters, but I wouldn't put total faith in them unless you had the ability to experiment prior to your presentation. I'd definitely have a backup plan.

  • Is there a way to control the quality of my pdf file when exporting from a .pse file?

    Is there a way to control the quality of my pdf file when exporting from a .pse file?
    Hi,
    I have 2 pages in all in a .PSE file.
    When I try to export it as .PDF, the quality is very poor. I cannot change it to a better quality.
    Please advise how I can export the file so that i can have better quality.

    To expand a little on what Jongware said, normally choosing vector over bitmap will decrease the filesize. If the vector art is very complex though, this will not be true.
    Yup, a logo as bitmap takes up more space than the same as a vector -- unless the vector image is bitmap heavy (think Drop Shadow, Outline Glow; these are actually bitmap effects).
    Also, check your PDF version. "Older" versions do not support live transparency, the latest do. Then again, you cannot use live transparency if you suspect your viewers may be using Mac OS X, because Apple's own PDF viewer sucks big time.

  • Is there a way to control access by IP Address?

     

    I'd like to follow up on this question using WLS 6.0/6.1.
    What I need to do is block access to a set of directories to public IP
    addresses. My usual approach would be to tweak the webserver
    configuration to deny the requests, but I can't seem to find
    documentation on how to accomplish this.
    So, if approach this with a ConnectionFilter, I can look at the
    ConnectionEvent's getRemoteAddress() method to determine whether the
    requestor is public or trusted, but can I get enough information from
    getProtocol() method to determine which directory they're requesting?
    Thanks,

  • Time machine makes 30 backups for the last two days, no backups for any earlier times: is there a way to control it?

    I've been running Time Machine in the background for as long as I've owned my current Mac--- a few months.  It is a completely generic set-up: it's a desktop (rarely shut off or asleep) connected to an external hard drive that is much larger (1 TB) than my internal hard drive (0.5 TB), and Time Machine is configured to save backups of my whole internal drive to the external drive.  The external is half-full, and the internal is a little more than half-full.  I often hear my external crunching away, working on something.
    I recently needed to access an old file, so I went into Time Machine mode on the folder where it had been deleted a few weeks ago.  While I'm not upset that it isn't available (it's my own fault for deleting it), I didn't expect the Time Machine to have such a bad distribution of saved backups.  There are 30 backup snapshots of the past two days, and nothing earlier.  I was expecting something more like a few from today, a few from this week, a few from this month, and a few going all the way back in time--- a broader distribution.
    I don't see any way to control this in the Time Machine Preferences (in fact, very little control at all).  Is there a secret way to control it, or some tip to ensure a more useful distribution of saved snapshots?
    Thanks,
    -- Jim

    Thanks, but it doesn't exactly address my question.  TimeMachineEditor allows me to set the intervals or times when backups occur, but it doesn't control the algorithm that decides which snapshots should be deleted.  My problem was that Time Machine chose to delete all of the old snapshots and keep only the most recent ones: I'd like it to keep more of the recent ones than the old ones, but still keep some old ones.
    In fact, the (unmodifyable) text on the Time Machine control panel says that it keeps:
    hourly backups for the past 24 hours
    daily backups for the past month
    weekly backups for all previous months
    That would be perfect if it were true.
    Perhaps the algorithm did the wrong thing because the size of my internal hard drive varied quite a lot a few days ago: a process got out of control and used up all of my internal disk space.  I killed the process and deleted its output (several times), so my internal disk eventually went back down to normal.  Perhaps in the intervening hours, Time Machine made a backup, once an hour, and used up all of the external drive space.  When it had to choose between keeping "weekly backups of previous months" and "hourly backups of the past 24 hours", it chose to keep hourly backups of the past 24 hours.  This was the wrong choice in my case (it was the unwanted output) and is probably the wrong choice in most cases.
    Is there a way to control the algorithm that decides which backups to keep and which to delete?  I would have it delete the hourly, daily, and weekly backups in a way that preserves their relative distribution.
    By the way, while I have made it sound like my problem was a runaway log file (something that would be easy to put in an excluded directory with Time Machine's "Options" button), it was a VirtualBox snapshot merge.  The data in question are precious, but were unnecessarily copied many times while VirtualBox failed to merge them properly.  I can't simply exclude a directory: I'm talking about a more general problem.
    Thanks!

  • Is there a way to control brush parameters by special layer mask or channel?

    Is there a way to control brush parameters by special layer mask or channel? Maybe there is some plug-in for mask controlled brushes? Or channel controlled brushes?

    You are not understanding how masks work.  If you look closely at the first six brush tip options in the brush panel, either of the first two will give you a fixed size stroke regardless of pen pressure
    To control the appearance, or masking of specific colours, you would use a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer, and use the RGB drop down to select the colour you want to affect.  Without know _exactly_ what you are trying to achieve, no one can do more than guess, but from what you have written so far, I suspect you are going to be out of luck.
    What tablet are you using?  And you did not answer my question about what version of Photoshop?   You need to be a _lot_ more specific about what you want to do if you want keep my fast failing interest in this thread.

  • Is there any way to control automator through voice commands?

    is there any way to control automator through voice commands?
    Im simply trying to program my macbook pro early 2011 8gigs ram to resound to voice commands using automator but I haven't found any discuss on the subject.

    I have some AppleScript that expects a Pages (v5.2.2) document opened. It will then then speak the document name, and the count of words in the document. Or, I can trigger Speakable items and tell it to, "Switch to Pages" which it does immediately, because this is part of its repertoire of built-in commands. Then speak Word Count?
    In Automator, I created an Application, in which I dragged/dropped the Library > Utilities > Run AppleScript action into the workflow window. I replaced the AppleScript boilerplate with my existing AppleScript code that speaks the word count, and saved the Application into <login dir>/Library/Speech/Speakable Items folder as Word Count? (without the .app extension). It can also be saved in the Application Speakable Items > Pages sub-folder under the general Speakable Items folder.
    Next, I turned on Speakable Items in System Preferences > Accessibility > Speakable Items.
    It took several tries to get a spoken result from the Automator application, but it did work. Even with a calibrated microphone, and speaking about 18 inches from it. About 2 successes for ten tries. If I just put the AppleScript (without extension) in the same folder, my success rate would improve to 5/10. You may grow very weary of the repetition necessary to get Speakable Items to work. A small pink text banner also appears with the spoken content in it — below the Speakable Items monitor on the screen.
    Automator is scriptable. This means that in AppleScript, you can dynamically build an Automator workflow, and then execute it.

  • Is there any way to control or change the email notification format deliver

    Hi,
    Is there any way to control or change the email notification format delivered by iBots? I have created an iBot to deliver the scorecard report to the team with type chosen as 'Attachment (HTML)' option. With this definition of iBot - notification being sent in MIME HTML (.mht) format. Due to some security settings at my email client - the attachement gets quratined because of .mht format. So, I am looking for an option to send the notification only in HTML (.htm) format with which I don't have any issues with my email client?
    Any help is really appreciated.

  • Is there a way to control the number of consumed messages from JMS?

    Hi everyone,
    I have a BPEL process that is consumes messages from a foreign queue, performs a transformation, and passes it to Oracle Apps. I'm curious if there is a way to control the number of messages consumed at a time for processing.
    For example, if we place 50 transactions on this queue, I would like to only consume 10. And then as each one is processed and passed to Oracle Apps, I would like to pull another transaction off the queue. So basically I would only be processing 10 at the most.
    The issue I am having is we put 50 on the queue and the 50 are take off right away. But then half are making it into Oracle Apps and the remainder is failing with a JCA Connection Factory max connection error.
    Instead of changing the settings to get more through, I am wondering if it's possible to limit the number being processes at any one time.
    Thanks

  • Is there a way to control which processes should run or not ?

    I have a mac with Snow Leopard and was wondering if there was an app or some other way to control which processes run at startup and which dont etc ? I made a new user account and logged in and noticed that it ran like brand new. It loaded up faster and smoother than my normal account. I looked at the processes running and noticed that this new account loads up like a 4th of the processes my main account runs at startup . How can i make my main account run the same processes only so it will run as smooth and fast ? is there an app for this ? thanks (an app that also tells me what each process is for will help too so i can close the processes that i dont need and so that i dont have to close them every time i reboot, but that it will also stop them from automatically loading)
    Message was edited by: Pianohero

    most of the apps that would run at login (which btw is different from startup) automatically are things in the login items. there may be a few items in homedirectory/library/lauchagents but that would be the only place. other than that what runs at login on one account will run on the other. note however, that if you remove any launchdaemons from homedirectory/library/lauchagents the apps that made them may not work properly depending on what those launch daemons do.
    what 50 other processes are you referring to that you see on your main account? most of the stuff you see in the activity monitor are system processes that should not be removed. normally they hardly consume any CPU or RAM.
