Calibrating 14 inch iBook with Spyder: default settings for brightness

I am using a Spyder colorometer to calibrate my iBook 14 inch G4 1.2 Hz monitor. Before beginning the calibration, you are supposed to restore the "default" or "factory settings" for brightness and contrast. I can't find how to do this anywhere. I know how to adjust the brightness in Systems Preferences. There actually is a contrast adjustment possible in Universal Access. The lowest setting is called "normal". Can anybody help me with adjusting the brightness and contrast to "default" settings?
Also, the software recommends setting the display to 24 bit color. Is this possible?
iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

Hi Anthony
24 bit or true color is represented by the millions setting.
In System Preferences> Displays, Colors should be Millions
In the iBook G4:
In System Preferences> Displays, tab to Color
select Calibrate
Display Calibration Assistant
Select 1.8 Standard Gamma
continue
Select Native white point. This is the Apple standard setting.

  • Set default Settings for Brightness/Contrast Slider

    I am in the throes of editing several hundred pictures. My camera has a standard tendency toward too bright and not enough contrast. While editing about a hundred pictures in Photoshop Elements 3.0 last night, the brightness/Contrast and Shadow highlight slider suddenly retained the last setting - which GREATLY enhanced my editing efficiency! Alas, today it is back to normal - the Brightness/Contrast slider default is 0 for it's associated sliders and the Shadow Highlight option is again at 50%/0/0 for the three associated sliders.
    Is there a way to set a default value for the associated sliders for each of these?
    (I had installed Photoshop Elements 5.0 on a trial basis up until yesterday and also have Photoshop Elements 4.0 installed, but it is such a hassle to use, I just gave up on it (and 5.0 has the same issue as 4.0 - no concurrent file browser when editing.))

    Can't help you with Shadows/Highlights, but you do have an option with Brightness/Contrast. Instead of going to Enhance>Adjust Lighting>Brightness/Contrast, go to Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Brightness/Contrast instead. Once you've established the parameters you want for Brightness and Contrast, you can open up additional pictures and drag-and-drop the adjustment layer onto each new picture, retaining the settings from the first adjustment. This also allows you to quickly tweak the settings on the succeeding pictures, as adjustment layers can be readjusted ad infinitum.
    If only Shadows/Highlights had an adjustment layer option...

  • Change default settings for CaptureOnTouch with Canon imageFORMULA DR-C125

    Default settings for the CaptureOnTouch program get loaded automatically on startup for my Canon imageFORMULA DR-C125. I can personalize these settings, and take a backup, no problem. When another user logs into that very same computer with the very same scanner attached, they get the same automatically loaded default settings. In order for them to use the settings that I took a great deal of time to customize, they need to load the backup file that I created (whateverfilename.cot). It may seem like no big deal for somebody with some medium computer knowledge, but I have 50+ users logging into this computer, and I do not have time to show everyone of them what to do nor how to do it. Here comes my question: where are the defaults settings that Canon has created (which are so limited : they don't contain grayscale scan settings!) located on the computer (Program Files?) and what is the name of the file? I need to change these settings to something my users can easily deal with, and more importantly, I need scans that are nimble in size so that they can be emailed easily. Thank you so much in advance for you help! Stéphane

    Hello Forum , just to clarify what information I need. At what position is the slider for Brightness set in the System Preferences/Display ? Is it set to maximum brightness or in the middle? Any help from any one who has not changed the setting and using as the factory default would be helpful. I have read so many questions/answers on the forums re calibration but not one gives a clear answer to where the slider is set for default. My resaons for needinng this informmation is Spyder Monitor Calibrator asks to 'Set the Brightness to Default' I am lost as to where it was when I started out setting up. Thanks for looking. Tony

  • How do I change the default settings for opening documents on my macbook?

    Hi I would like to know how to change the default settings for opening documents on my macbook. Everytime I try to open a doc. it automatically opens with Textedit, instead of Pages or another program.

    Select any particular document you wish to fix. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With section select the desired Default Application from the dropdown menu. Click on the Change All button to extend the change to all similar documents.
    You can only assign one default application to one type of document.

  • Is it possible to create a new tab in 'Default settings for items' option?

    Hi everybody
    I am Raghu working in EBP2.0 & I have come across a difficlty and that is of creating a new tab and also the fields 'GL a/c', 'cost centre' or 'internal order' in this new tab.
    First of all please let me know whether is it possible to create a new tab for these fields.
    The purpose of this new tab is to default the cost centre and GL account with reference to shopping cart.
    As per current scenario, user has to enter the cost centre & the GL code as many times as the number of items in a shopping cart. I mean, if you have 10 items in your shopping cart then 10 times user has to input the cost centre & GL account. To avoid this we are required to add new tab so that per shopping cart we can enter the GL account & cost centre only once.
    Your immediate response would be very much apprecited.
    Regards
    Raghu

    hi Ram & Sreenivas
    Thanks for your immediate response.
    Ram, we can default GL a/c & cost centre in org structure since client wants to us to keep the option of entering these for every shopping cart.
    Sreenivas, I checked the 'copy to clipboard' option & its not there in EBP2 and I feel what you meant as cost centre tab is account assignment tab.
    Let me explain you more clearly about this requirement.
    Current Scenario
    1.Say a user has added 5 items to his SC.
    2.User has to enter cost centre & GL code 5 times & then he can order
    Required scenrio
    1.Say a user has added 5 items to his SC.
    2.As per the proposed functionality, user will click on 'Default settings for items' button. Three tabs will appear-->Basic data, Internal note & Delivery Address.
    We have to provide a new tab here where in user will default his GL & cost centre for this shopping cart & then order. This will help user to avoid entering GL & cost centre 5 times.
    For some reasons our client is not interested in defaulting this data.
    Please help in this regard if time permits.
    Thanks

    hi do the following
    1. In Search programs and files (Windows 7) area, type in regedit, and press Enter.
    2. If prompted click yes,
    3.  expand the following HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
    4. click the sid that related to your admin profile (if you not sure, click each sid and in turn look to the right hand side of registry editor it will show who that sid is related to one of the registry files should hae in description localhost\admin or
    something similair)
    5. right click the sid and press delete.
    6. restart your machine and log back on with the admin account, this will then rebuild the admin profile... dont worry when it loads and none of your personal settings are saved or files or folders... go to c:\users
    in here you will see two folders for the admin account, one will be just admin and the other most likely admin.localhost
    i cant remember which one is which but just check both, one will still have all your files and folders in it.
    i suggest making a backup of your data before doing this incase something does go wrong, but ive had this happen many times in a domain enviorment and has worked for me everytime.

  • Shopping Cart - Default Settings for items

    Hi all,
    We are on SRM 7.0  SP05 classic scenario with backend ECC 6.0 EHP4.  There is a requirement to retain shopping cart default settings so that user is no need to enter default values on each shopping cart creation.
    We are intent to develop a custom WDA for users to edit their own shopping cart default settings, the values will be saved to user position attributes and extended attributes (including some customized attributes) at PPOMA_BBP.  After that, default settings will be copied from attribute during shopping cart creation, for example:
    Item Basic Data: Product Category <== extended attribute "Product Category" value which is set as default
    Account Assignment: Account Assignment Category <== attribute KNT which is set as default
    Assign Number: Cost Center <== attribute CNT,  Asset <== attribute AN1, WBS Element <== attribute PRO  (plus two custom attributes to hold value of Internal Order and Network)
    Here are the questions:
    (1)  For GL account, we did not config combination of Product Category and Account Assignment Category in SPRO, we will create a custom attribute as mentioned above.  However, where can we insert our coding to copy custom attribute value to default setting during shopping cart creation?   Is class /SAPSRM/CL_PDO_USER_CONTEXT  a candidate?  If yes, which method should be enhanced?
    (2)  For Delivery Address, if we do not use standard address management and maintain value at attribute ADDR_SHIPT, we intent to use similar approach: maintain custom attribute and then populate to default settings.  The same question is where can we insert our coding to copy custom attribute values to default setting during shopping cart creation?
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Donald

  • Default settings for characteristics in CCM 2.0

    Hello All,
    We have implemented CCM 2.0 at customer with SRM 5.0. To avoid changing the default settings of the characteristics for every catalog they create I would like to change the defaults. I have changed a few characteristics in table /CCM/C_CHAR but these changes don't seem to reflect in CCM. I also don't see the characteristics they created themselves. I have chekced the following tables in addition:
    /CCM/C_CHAR
    /CCM/C_CHAR_ALS
    /CCM/C_CHAR_ASPT
    /CCM/C_CHAR_TXT
    /CCM/C_CHR_ALIAS
    and
    /CCM/C_DTYPE
    /CCM/C_DTYPE_HDR
    /CCM/C_DTYPE_T
    /CCM/C_DTYPE_TXT
    /CCM/C_DTYPE_VL
    /CCM/C_DTYPE_VLT
    Can anybody please help me? They already have 30 procurement catalogs and this will soon be much more.
    Thanks,
    Antoinette

    Hello Masa,
    Thanks for your reply. I would like to change the values of the characteristics like Sortable. read only, required. list v iew, compare view etc. When a catalog is created it is created with default settings regarding those values which means that for every catalog our customer creates these settings need to be changed and that is a lot of work. What I am trying to achieve is to change the defaults to the requirements of our customer so when a new procurement catalog is created it is created with the correct settings for the characteristics.
    We have add the customer characteristics on schema level but these characteristics are not visible in the tables mentioned.And when I change settings in table /CCM/C_CHAR it does not change it in CCM.
    Hope you know the solution or maybe otherwise know somebody who can help me!
    Thank you,
    Antoinette

  • Is it possible to change the default settings for the slideshow?

    The default settings for any new slideshow use the dreaded Ken Burns effect and some awful background music from a standard library. Having to turn these things off for every new slideshow I start is driving me nuts. Perhaps preferring no music accompaniment and a static photo on the screen is for some people rather boring - but I would prefer it, at least as a starting point. If anyone can help, I'd be very grateful. Thanks

    Choose "Export" and then the QuickTime option.
    It will make a 4 track video with a simple "fade" effect between photos. You can set the dimensions and the duration of your photos. You can also remove the music or add your own from your iTunes Library (no purchased music if you intend to share these movies).

  • How to change default settings for a video generator?

    I'm using a video generator (Lyric Media's Pan Zoom Pro) many times in the same project, and have to change the default settings for each new instance of the generator that I create. I'm wondering if there's any way to change the default settings for a generator (i.e., length of clip, individual slider and checkbox settings in the "controls" tab) so that each new instance automatically has my customized settings when I first open it.
    Thanks.

    That works for the all the controls/filter settings. The clip length still defaults to 10 seconds, but that's OK, since the main thing I was looking for was to change the clip's internal settings. Thanks for your help

  • GL account given in Default Settings for Items is not taking precedence

    Hi All,
    Could you please give your valuable inputs for my query
    Which takes precedence....GL account given in Default Settings for Items at the top of the shop screen or the Product category and GL account assignment maintained in SRM GUI?
    Scenario: I input a GL account in 'Default Settings for Items' at the top of the shop screen. Then click on Describe Requirements. Here I change the Product Category and add the line item to shopping cart.
    What GL account will appear in the cost assignment? Default value maintained at the top or the value maintained in the Product category table.
    Thanks
    Deepthi....

    Hi Muthu,
    Thank you for your response.
    It is not picking the default G/L account assigned to cost center( I believe you are talking abt OKB9 trans). It is picking the G/L account which is assigned to the product category in the customising. This is happenning only if the product category is changed for the line item while adding the item to shopping cart. Otherwise the same G/L account given at the header is appearing in the line item too.
    Also While changing the G/L#  information in Default settings for items at top, if Cost center is also changed then the same cost center is appearing in the cost assignment section for the line item but not the G/L.
    Wanted to know if this is a standard design or not. I would like to have the header data to take precedence over the product category and G/L assignment. Any suggestions please
    No ..... I checked in csks table.There are many cost centers for the company code.
    Thanks

  • Any Way to Set Default Settings for HDR Toning?

    I have developed a nice set of parameters for the HDR Toning feature and have saved them as Noels Defaults, but I don't see a way to make them the default settings for HDR Toning.  Frankly I find the default color settings for the tool very garish.  I suppose that's good, because it always reminds me that I need to select my own settings, but...
    Can you suggest a way to make my own settings the HDR Toning dialog defaults, so as to save a step each time I use it?
    My apologies if I'm being dense and missing something obvious.
    Thanks.
    -Noel
    P.S., I'm on Windows 7 by the way, and of course I'm talking about Photoshop CS5.

    Thanks Zeno.
    Well, then, Adobe, could you please make the defaults settable, for example like Camera Raw?
    Thank you.
