Apple 21" studio Display monitor-help

I have a G4 and just got an apple 21" studio display monitor
I work in photoshop CS2 what do I put the resolution at? Color and refresh?
what should the white point and gamman be? what should the profile on themonitor display?
I WENT INTO THE PREFERENCES AND LOOKED AT THE DISPLAY..THANKS..JAN

(for my photos the service I use said to use sRGB the resolution)....
Then open CS2 and under Photoshop scroll down to Color Settings, go to Work Space and set the RGB tab to sRGB. At the top of the menu under Monitor it should be your Apple 21" Display.
If it is not then it will change after you calibrate the monitor. Open System Preferences/Desktop and change your desktop to a medium gray (you can change it back after you make the necessary color corrections). Now choose Display, select your preferred screen resolution, and millions of color. Now choose Color from the upper tab to Calibrate the monitor. If you check the box "Show profile for this display only" the menu will be simplified. Now select Calibrate and use the professional mode. Just follow the on screen instructions and do all of the color setting using the 1.8 gamma and native whiter point.
After the monitor is calibrated you will be asked to save and name the calibration. I would recommend a name similar but different from the default Apple 21" Display setting, you can even include the date if you calibrate often.
Reopen Photoshop and check the Work Space the RGB/Monitor the setting should be your recent selected calibration.

  • New Mac Mini / DVI / Apple 17" Studio Display

    Greetings all.
    I am contemplating purchasing new Mac Mini.
    Currently using Mac mini / DVI adapter/ older Apple 17" studio display.
    I do not intend monitor change at present.
    Question is, which display adapter would allow me to use older DVI adapter/Apple 17" studio display?
    Thanks for you time, looking forward to your response.
    Regards,

  • Connect MacBook with Studio Display Monitor (2000)

    I am trying to connect my MacBook with an old Studio Display monitor (made in 2000) that has an ADC 30 Male cord. I have a Mini-DVI to DVI 24 Female Adapter that fits into my laptop. I can't seem to find a DVI 24 Male to ADC 30 Female adapter, which is what appears I need. Is there anything I can do to make this work? Thanks!

  • Apple Mac Studio Display 23" cinema with plastic surround

    Does anyone have any idea what this monitor might be worth nowadays.

    I'm not sure exactly which ATI Rage 128 video card you have. If your video card has only a VGA output, and your display is the clear acrylic ADC version, you'll probably have to replace the video card with one with DVI digital output. As far as I know, there aren't any VGA-to-DVI or VGA-to-ADC adapters. Alternately, there are lots of LCD monitors for PCs that have VGA 15-pin inputs, and that would be the easy way to go.
    If there are 2 outputs on the card, a VGA 15-pin and a DVI-D connector (that's what's on my AGP graphics G4, and it looks sort of like a SCSI port with a flat pin at one end), and you have one of the clear 15" ADC Studio Displays, you need to get one of Apple's DVI-to-ADC adapters, $99.95 at the Apple store. It will plug into the DVI output and supply power for the display.
    There are early model Apple 15" Studio Displays, a Blue & White version which has a VGA input which will work with your card, and a Graphite version which I think has a DVI connector.

    Also, before going to step 5 and taking a screwdriver to it, try:

  • Dual Apple Cinema Studio Displays where one uses DVI-to-ADC adapter

    I have an Apple Power Mac G4 MDD dual 1.25 GHz desktop with 2GB RAM running OSX Tiger 10.4.
    It is supporting two Apple Cinema Studio LCD flat panel 17" displays simultaneously.
    Currently, it has three internal hard drives and one SuperDrive.
    I use this computer exclusively for my home recording studio for music production.
    My main computer applications are therefore, Pro Tools LE 7.4, Steinberg Cubase, and Reason 3.0.
    Also, I have the full Microsoft Office Suite, but rarely use Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Access.
    To drive the dual displays, I am using a ATI Radeon 9000 Pro which has one ADC port and one DVI port. Therefore, I am using a DVI-ator adapter to connect one of my ADC displays to the DVI port.
    Yesterday, while recording, one of the two displays developed a broad vertical band (approx 4" of black with thin red, green and blue vertical lines). The other display was fine, however.
    I decided to shut down my PowerMac G4 and disconnect the DVI-adapted display and re-boot with only the display that was connected to the ADC port. The Power Mac G4 booted up fine and ran only its display on this particular monitor.
    However, within 5 minutes, the screen re-developed the broad black vertical band with thin red, green and blue lines running up-and-down as before. Therefore, I shut it down and re-booted again. This time, it never booted back up. Rather, its progress indicator (clock picture moving in clockwise diagram kept on spinning around & around, but never booted-up.
    What does this symptom indicate?
    How can I boot-up from the SuperDrive?
    Is there some special combination of hot keys to get to its setup mode (like in Windows)?
    From these symptoms, is my PowerMac G4 MDD fixable?

    Hi-
    Welcome to Discussions!
    It could be that your graphics card has bit the dust.
    To boot to the OS install disc from the optical drive, hold the C key when powering up. This should bring you to the installer. In the window after selection of your desired language, from the menu bar, you canselect Utilities/Disk Utility. From there, run Repair Disk on the hard drive to insure the integrity of the hard drive.
    My computer won't turn on
    Now, if you are able to boot, but no video is displayed, then your graphics card is probably dust.
    My computer displays no video
    If you have a copy of the Apple Hardware Test, it would be good to run that, to verify the hardware.
    If you don't have the AHT, you can download it, and burn it to CD, and run from that:

  • Apple CRT Studio Display Calibration in Leopard

    My translucent CRT Apple Studio Display is with internal HW ColorSync calibration equipped.

  • Apple 17 Studio Display on Dual 2.7 G OS 10.4 G5

    What do I need to connect my two Apple 17" (ADC)Studio Displays on my Dual 2.7 G OS 10.4 G5?
    Just buy two Apple DVI to ADC adapters ($99)?
    Any caveats?
    Thanks.

    Hi sbunk-
    That should do it. I personally know of no caveats.

  • B&W 17" CRT Studio Display Monitor

    I have this connected to my G5 P/Mac which works fine.
    At present it is powered through my old G3, can I power the monitor directly through a power lead to the mains supply?
    I think the power lead from the G3 might do this?

    Salutations...

    It sounds like the monitor is re-calibrating. When you re-calibrate an Apple CRT the monitor goes though a self analysis and flashes solid colors on the screen. (Other brands are not as tightly integrated with the Mac OS so you must do this by hand, er... eye... er... whatever.) What OS are you using? I know there was a setting in OS 9 & OS 10.3 to re-calibrate automatically periodically. Check the Monitors/Displays control under “color.” I always switched off that feature and re-calibrated when I had a free moment.

  • APPLE 15" STUDIO DISPLAY HINGE

    help!
    i need a part: http://www.welovemacs.com/9225633.html
    i need the piece with the 3 holes in it, which attaches the back leg to the hinge - but appreciate, it comes as a set.
    located in the UK, I can hardly justify spending £60 on a hinge from the USA!
    this part must be located in the UK, surely? does anyone know of any websites or companies that supply mac monitor parts? or monitors for spares... anything! any help would be good...
    many thanks,

  • How to get old apple CRT studio display to stock settings?

    The adjustments of my screen have been messed with and I keep trying to mess with it, but I can't seem to get it right. Is there a way to put the screen adjustment settings back to stock?

    You shouldn't need any software. Any software that came with the display would have been for OS 9, anyway. They stopped selling the display before OSX came out, but OSX should be able to use it with its built-in drivers. Do you hear the startup sound from the display's power supply? Can you see the glow of the CRT filament?

  • Can a Apple Studio Display be used with a none Mac PC under Windows

    Hello, can a 21 Inch Apple Mac Studio Display Monitor (Graphite) be used with a none Mac PC under Windows. Thanks Peter

    what's a "none" Mac PC?
    It can be done, but you'll need to purchase an ADC-DVI adapter in order to connect to the DVI port on the PCs video card.

  • Add old 18-inch Studio Display to 2013 iMac; How ??

    I need more screen real estate. My current computer is a 27-inch iMac, bought in May, 2013. When I bought the iMac the folks at the Apple store across town told me I needed an adapter to run a 2nd monitor and they sold me a “Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter”. The DVI end of this has a 24-pin female connector with one horizontal bar.
    My new machine replaced a dual G4 Mac tower, from 2002, that used an 18-inch Studio Display monitor. Problem is, this monitor has a 30-pin male connector with one horizontal bar that simply won't fit my adapter.
    The guy at my near-by Microcenter store told me that they have no adapters to handle the transition between my old Studio Display and my new computer. But he said he thought Apple had something for $190 that would handle the transition. Hmmmmm. I can get a new monitor for less than that!
    I've spent a couple hours rummaging around in the FAQs and don't find anything that helps me.
    Anybody have any suggestions about how to attach my old Studio Display to my newish iMac?

  • 17in CRT Studio Display (Blue & White)-blinking power button

    I have an Apple 17in Studio Display (CRT-Blue and White vintage) connected to my Power Mac G5.
    Last night, I went home, and turned it on..or rather tried to turn it on but found it stayed black, with the power button blinking green->amber->green->amber etc.
    As far as the computer was concerned, the monitor was still there and working (dual monitors...the mac kept the b&w as if it was turned on).
    I swapped the monitors to the different video ports and the other monitor worked fine, so it's not the video card or vga->digital adapters.
    I unplugged the monitor and replugged it, and it stayed with the blinking light.
    Restarting the computer with the monitor attached had the computer still running as if the monitor was working just fine, so it seems to be getting what ever kind of feedback the mac gets to let it know a video card is there.
    Anyone have any idea what could be up?

  • Studio displays and G4

    Will an Apple 21" studio display with the built in 4-port USB hub work with a sawtooth G4? I believe these have a 15 pin VGA, right?

    I saw that your equipment configuration was the same as mine, and hoped you might have some advice on a problem that I posted this evening. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
    My 17-inch studio display CRT monitor (which was working fine) recently died, and I purchased a used, but 'swear-to-goodness-still-functioning' 21-inch studio display CRT monitor from Ebay to use with my G4/ACP Graphic/desktop Power Mac.
    When I installed the new monitor, (connecting the three cables: AC power, VGA and USB), and restarted the computer I saw a clear (but horizontally compressed) band of picture about 4 inches wide running from the top to the bottom of the monitor for the first 30 secs of startup. Then the click of a relay and the picture disappears to leave a black screen. After that, all that happens is a constant 'fluttering' sound from the back of the monitor.
    I tried restarting and zapping the PRAM, but no change.
    Would welcome any suggestions on what to try next....
