Anyone got a GOOD calibration with the Dell 2408WFP?

From everything I've read, this monitor is tough to set up correctly, and perhaps best done w/ a Spyder 3 Elite, or other professional calibration tools...
But I've just got these buttons, my pointer finger, and Apple's & SuperCal calibration programs. Wee!
I've gotten a few decent setups, but since there's just SO MUCH to futz with on this monitor, I was hoping to get some insight here.
I'm running a new MacPro with the Nvidia 8800 card, FWIW.

Dear Mr. State,
Reading your question I think you desparately need a professional calibrator tool. Then you should forget the Spider 3 and invest in something decent and in the proworld that means Gretag MacBeth and, in combination with simple to use software your choice should be the La Cie BlueEye Pro tested here. This colorimeter should thoroughly solve your problem with every TFT and CRT monitor, is also usable with PC's and you do not need any activation code.
Best regards,
Robbert

  • Is there anyone who has good experience with the E...

    I'm a current owner of E72 with a multitude of problems which i'm tired out talking about. Anyway, I'm thinking of upgrading to the E6, because of it's price in my country and also because i'm familiar with nokia phones' symbian platforms. Initially i did not want to buy any nokia products anymore, but I want to give it another go because of the mentioned reasons and also due to my E72 frustrating me every other day. In addition, my few other options are android touchphones and i really dislike full fleged touchphones, not to mention their battery life. My other option is the Blackberry which has no front facing camera which i need making video calls, so I'm really looking at the E6. I've read so many horror stories in this thread that i'm really worried that i'll get a lemon, so I want to read some positive stories or some judicious pros and cons, before taking the plunge! Please help thank you!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have owned my E6 for over 3 months and after the weekends new firmware (025) the phone now is almost perfect.
    The audio quality for music is good and voice calls is the best that you can find, even in noizy environments.
    Battery endurance is very good now, perhaps 80-100 hours in moderate use.
    Also the former problem with backlight is now corrected by Nokia.
    After the firmware the phone is very fast, I mean this cincerely. Also it seems that connectivity over 3G or WLAN is 100% perfect now.
    The vibration is perhaps a little weak for men, but woman can feel it...I tested it various ways.... Nokia will solve this matter also.
    Forgotten things, that is really good is removable battery, hot-swoppable memory card and the the feeling of handling the phone.
    Not a single scratch or dust problem after 3 months...
    The RAM-memory seems to be enough for everything I am doing.
    The graphic and the 1GB ROM-memory certainly makes the Nokia E6 competent.
    The qwerty is really amazing and the screen also, after experimenting with font magnifier (using 119%) and the size in the web browsers and of course the phone settings for font size have actually made this E6 excellent. It took me some time to be satisfied with the settings, but I am now more than happy with mine.
    As said, the program RemindMe is useful for light indicators for sms/mms, emails and calls. That solve that issue to me and even if Nokia built-in will be better in the next firmware I stil wouldn´t quit the remindMe.
    Finally, the camera is also more than good, the lack of autofocus doesn´t disturb me at all. I never take photos of small documents with the camera.
    I have to say, just buy it after this latest firmware, and then add those applications that you need for productivity. The applications I use you can see here below.
    I uninstalled the F-secure firewall/antivirus that caused some strange behaviors in early august, especially when I connected to a server with the built-in filebrowser (webdav).
    PS Mine have never restarted and I can´t remember a hang. DS

  • Has anyone had a good experience with the 4.2 install?

    I only see negative reports posted. Is anyone's upgraded iPad working correctly?

    Based on the lack of negative reports in the broader media, I'd say 99% of upgrades are probably working flawlessly. Remember, the media love to jump down Apple's throat for any perceived flaw, as they did for the iPhone antenna issue. No, I'd say so far this is among Apple's more problem-free launches.
    As others have noted, this is a tech support forum. Gauging the overall experience of those installing 4.2 by reading the messages here is akin to taking a poll at your local emergency room and concluding that the entire population is sick.

  • Hello, I got a new computer with the old harddisk. Can't play my itunes music because not authorised. Apple ID is very old e-mail adress that doesn't exist anymore. When chose for secret question brth date seems wrong. Can't reach anyone!!!

    Hello, I got a new computer with the old harddisk. Can't play my itunes music because not authorised. Apple ID is very old e-mail adress that doesn't exist anymore and I forgot the password (5 years old??). When chose for secret question birth date seems wrong. Tried everything. I need to make a new apple-id but cannot connect the music that I bought under my old name to my new name. Can't reach anyone!!! Automatic FAQ system is of no help. What to do?

    That doesn't help me. For itunes it brings me to the express lane which doesn't help because my case is not in it. It's all standard procedure things. I understand those but my situation is different. The combination of a passport forgotten and an non-existing email adress (and birth dates that are not correct or not accepted). What I need is my password emailed to another email adress than the original one because that no longer exists.

  • Does  Mavericks have the problem fixed with working with the Dell UltraSharp U3014 30 inch monitor?

    Does  Mavericks have the problem fixed with working with the Dell UltraSharp U3014 30 inch monitor?

    I have this (or a similar) issue and I did notice something interesting. After I boot into Windows via Bootcamp (where I have the U3014 specfic driver installed) and then reboot into MacOS X (Mavericks) the monitor works flawlessly.
    I would hazard a guess that this means bootcamp is retaining the driver used in Windows. Kind of the reverse of the TB GBE adapter driver issue.
    To explain my issue for anyone else: the monitor flicks on and off as if the connection was poor. Connecting via HDMI. Connection is fine and as stated, everything works fine in Bootcamp.

  • Is the new imac compatible with the dell v313w printer for wireless connection?

    Is the new iMac compatible via wireless connection with the Dell V313W printer?

    Hi Sara!
    I got an email refering me to your post.  Ok, www.MacMall.com is a US website that sells Apple products.  I bought my iMac&printer through their website and worked with their customer service department to get my iMac communicating with the Dell V313W printer.  They have people that will take calls any time-any day at phone number 1-800-622-6255.  The other option since you are in France would be to contact a local Apple dealer...or see if they have an authorized dealer in Europe that could help.  I purchased the Apple Care Support contract with the iMac but they were unable to help since they weren't familiar with the Dell printer.
    As I mentioned in my previous post the things we tried were: 1) If I remember right... I downloaded the Dell V313W printer driver from the Dell website then connected the iMac to the printer via the USB cable and established communication. I then disconnected the cable and 2) I moved the iMac and printer closer to my wireless router then 3) I turned on "Printer Sharing" on the iMac - I think this is a critical step...to do this go to System Preferences > Hardware > Print&Scan.  In the window that opens make sure the box is checked that says "Share this printer on the network" then go to the "Sharing Preferences..." box and check the "Printer Sharing" and "Scanner Sharing" boxes in the window that opens.  When I did all this the iMac went through it's routine to find the printer and the connection was finally established! 
    One more thing, make sure if your wireless router is locked for security that you enter the correct password when prompted...this might have been one of my problems also!
    Hope this helps.
    All the best,
    mw

  • Goods issue based on Goods receipt with the same price

    Hi Gurus,
        Can we do goods issue with the price of goods receipts?
        For example: GR 100 ea price 10, GR 200 price 20, now total stock is 300 ea. Now we want issue 50 ea out of stock, users want those goods issue with first in price 10.
        Can we acheive this? and how?
    Thanks,
    Grace

    Hi,
    I'm not sure but you can try following methods.
    - Create GR for 10 nos. in unrestricted stock & for 20 nos create GR as Blocked stock. Let your stores person issue the first 10 first & 20 later on.
    - You can try it with  batch management.

  • Has anyone got Python to work on the N96???

    Has anyone got Python to wok on the N96?
    I have downloaded and installed the latest edition 3rd 1.4.4 i think. it goes on the phone without any problems.
    However when trying to use app that use python specifically pyPiow at the moment the app goes on the phone but nothing happens when i try to open it!
    is it somthing i am doing wrong, where go i install the pictures, or the apps for that matter, can the apps go on the mass memory where they are now or do they have to go on the very small phone memory?!
    does current python work at all on the n96
    has anyone had any joy?
    please help!
    cheers

    I managed to get it to work, you have to install two files
    the first for the actual python script files.
    the second for the user interface.
    you might have installed the user interface, but without installing python, and that's why its not loading up the application, also make sure you install python to phone memory.
    On my N96 I installed:
    Python for S60 1.4.4
    Python script shell 1.4.4
    if you get an 'update error' when installing its because you have not un-installed all of the old python stuff, open app manager on the handset and un-install all python relating files
    one last thing, install python and the shell to the phone memory (c drive)
    Hope it helps

  • Has anyone else had a problem with the audio not keeping up with the video when switching to full screen on YouTube?

    Hi. I have a OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.1 Mac Book Air, Processor 1.86 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
    Has anyone else had a problem with the audio not keeping up with the video when switching to full screen on YouTube?
    The video starts out fine, but if I click on the expand icon in the lower right corner of the screen the audio won't keep up.
    Refreshing the page don't help at all. In fact, nothing seems to help once it starts.
    I did not have this problem at all using Mavericks. The problem started after installing Yosemite.
    Any way to fix it?

    only $99, i thought it was closer to $175.

    recently bought a samsung NX30 camera which came with lightroom 5, after several hours of googling i got it setup properly with the correct camera raw to be able to access my raw images. I found my old laptop was very slow when processing the hundreds of images I usually take on a weekly basis.  I bought a new faster laptop but when I looked for the cd with the software and serial I could not find it in the Xmas clutter.  I downloaded a trial version of lightroom and got it working on my new laptop. Is there a way to access the serial number from my previously installed version and insert it into the trail version to make it work for me?
    Myron

    Mea culpa
    While i registered all my cs2 thru 6 versions and my lightroom 2 thru 4 versions and recorded the serials and saved the adobe registration emails.  Since this came as a freebee with the camera i neglected this vital step.  I have the instslled version on my old laptop but want to install it on my new one.  Thanks to Jim Hess I got the serial so all is well in my world and I will register it with ADOBE

    Hi G-Money,
    The communication will be over TCP-IP.
    Thanks for your offer to help.  I don't really need assistance in figuring out how to communicate with the device in LabVIEW at a transport layer.  I'm just trying to take inventory on what's already been done, at a messaging protocol level, that could be useful as a reference or starting point.
