Aliasing/moire in the photoshop workspace. What's the deal?
Take a look at any open file in photoshop. Now zoom to 16%, 33%, or any other odd-numbered zoom level. Notice the aliasing and moire? It has always annoyed me - to the point where I only work in 25%, 50%, 100%, etc zoom levels. I avoid 16, 33, etc altogether.
But there's got to be a way to correct this. I have CS3 at home, and I use CS5 at work. is there a setting or option to turn on anti-aliasing, or mipmapping, or I don't know, something?

There is some aliasing. I wouldn't say it's so excessive that I would think to avoid certain "stops" though...
Can you do one or more screen grabs and post them here to see if you're seeing something most folks are not, or whether you're just more sensitive to it than most?
Photoshop appears to use a resampling algorithm that's optimized for speed to create one of a number of pre-downsized cache images, and from there it resamples the image further to give you the exact zoom level you want.
I have recently programmed a similar process in my own software. Following what OpenGL expects, in my case I downsize a set of "mip maps" by half and half again until I get to the smallest size (1 pixel). The advantage to using half sizes (4 pixels into 1) is that the code can be quite simple and fast yet still yield a very clean, smooth resample.
Enabling OpenGL in Photoshop does help smooth out the image between the "stops", but I think there's just no getting around the fact that there is still code left over in Photoshop from times gone by. Don't forget they still fully support non-OpenGL operation.
The remaining resampling - to odd sizes between "stops" - is done quite handily in the GPU using floating point and the massively parallel processing GPUs provide. This is why in Photoshop they can provide things like the smooth zoom transitions. Not that many years ago not too many things moved on the screen in real time!

So I have an iPad with the smart cover, and it's usually supposed to turn on and off the iPad when u open it and close it, but it's not turning on for me. Nor is it turning off without pressing the button. What is the meaning of this?what caused it to be this way? Is there someway that I could fix it?
Wait a sec did this just start?
You set up the smart cover function in settings (you did that, right?) so, if you did that and it's failed you make an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar now. -
My MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7.2, only audio on the headset, and speaker mute. With Windows, the audio works in speaker and headphone jack. What is the problem? What's the solution?
There is probably a red light on inside your headphone port, indicating that the analog/digital switch in there is stuck in the digital position. Insert a headphone plug and wigle it around, especially in the horizontal plane, as you insert and remove it several times. This will usually unstick the switch and restore normal operation. If it doesn't, the machine will need to be repaired.
This has been a fairly common problem, but in most cases it is easily cured as described above. -
How to make the dblink and what is the use of this
plz any body tell me "how to make the dblink and what is the use of this"
sujitDo you understand how to make the Slider work using code to read its value? You will need to look into that in order to do this.
What you can do is have the yello rectangle be a movieclip that sits over the red rectangle and use the Slider to control the yellow rectangle's alpha property from 0 to 1. That way the yellow will gradually fade as you slide.
What you will then need to do is figure out how to make the number of dots that appear reduce from 15 to 8 over the same range of the slider. You need to use the fractional value from the slider to decide how many dots either appear or do not appear.
You should not start new postings for the same topics that you arlready have postings for. Doing so in the future might result in them being removed. -
I have a airport time capsule, an older airport extreme, and an older airport express. I want to hard wire my Mac Mini to the network. What is the best arrangement of the devices? which ones should be hard wired to optimize extending the network?
I am using TM Unifi with an ASUS RT-N18U Wi-Fi router. I would like to know could I use Apple AirPort Time Capsule to extend (repeater, booster) my Wi-Fi to a part of the house where the Wi-Fi signal is poor
Yes,, if you plan to connect the AirPort Time Capsule to the ASUS router using an Ethernet cable connection that will remain fixed and permanently installed at all times.
No, if you were planning to have the AirPort Time Capsule connect wirelessly and extend the Asus WiFi signal, since it would not be compatible with another manufacturer's router for that purpose.
Another way of saying the same thing here would be that if you want to extend the network wirelessly, it will take two Apple routers to do so -

My iPhone 4 turns off (crashes) after accesing any apps, It work fine when plugged to charger (power supply). I tried all troubleshooting steps suggested by Apple but it doesn't work. I backed up my phone. I restored it several times. Even I re-installed iphone software. Also I restored it as a new iphone but doesn't work. What could be the problem and what are the availble solutions?
We can't know if there's a "fixture" because we can't examine your phone. But Apple can. Make a Genius Bar appointment and get your phone evaluated.

my iPad is disabled after entering many wrong passcodes by my kid, and is asking me now to connect to iTunes to get enabled again (unlocked), however when I connect to iTunes, it asks me to first unlock the iPad? what is the solution
You need to place the device in recovery mode ...
f you can't remember the Passcode, you need to restore the device from the computer it was last synced with.
Instructions for putting the device in recovery mode > iOS: Unable to update or restore
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present -
Since updating to LR5.5 it crashes about every 5-10 images while working in the development module. Computer is PC Windows 7 Home Premium. I have been using this computer for several years with zero problems. Is this related to the updating? What is the fix?

Do you get a Blue Screen?

Understanding ISE and dACL.
I don't understand correlation between ACL and dACL.
If dACL is downloaded to the Catalyst switch what is the status of the ACL attached to physical port. Is dACL appended to the existing ACL? When I typed ‘sh ip access-list int fa0/1’ I can see only dACL for access domain and dACL for voice domain appended to the previous dACL and no ACL lines.
Regards,
ViceHi,
Downloadable ACLs (dACL) are applied from your RADIUS server based on authentication and authorization policies. It overrides any standard interface ACL.
Standard interface ACLs are in place to limit traffic on the port before 802.1x or MAB authentication.
When an authenticated session terminates on the interface the standard ACL will be re-applied until the next authentication. -

Bought a new Cannot open Olympus OM-D E-M1 camera, but the files are not readable in my Photoshop CS5, nor the newly acquired Photoshop CC. They both open the older E-M5 files alright. I just installed the Photoshop CC today, so the camera raw is up-to-date. Please help
You will need Camera Raw 8.2 or newer to open files from the E-M1; CS5 will only accept up to ACR 6.7. You will need to use the free DNG converter to open your RAW files

my iphone 3 couldn't restore, its saying the error 46. what is the meaning of error 46?and how can i resolve it?
It doesn't matter when you installed antivirus software; if you have it on your computer it will frequently block access from applications to sites it does not know about. A sync does not require access to a site not on your computer; an upgrade clearly does. So if you have never jailbroken any device you do not need to be concerned about your hosts file, but you DO need to temporarily disable your antivirus during the update process.
The hosts file is an operating system file on all computers that overrides DNS lookup. In order to jailbreak or hack an iDevice the programs that do it need to redirect iTunes so it does not go to the Apple activation server, but instead goes to the hacking program for activation instructions. It does this by adding a record to the hosts file that bypasses the DNS lookup for gs.apple.com. But you don't have to be concerned about this. -
i have a problem how can I solve it I want give permissions to groupA to edit the people picker and I want to restrict groupB to edit the people picker what is the solution boss.. in InfoPath form is it possible..
Hi,
To hide/disable controls based on user group in an InfoPath form, a solution is that we can call User Profile Service to check the group of current user, then hide/disable
specific controls by setting some rules in form.
Here is a demo with steps in details would be helpful to you:
