Can I adjust the display contrast?

I need to adjust the contrast of my MBP display DOWN to be able to view shadow details, but I can't find any way to adjust the contrast. I already checked Universal Access and its adjusted down as low as it gets.

LCD displays do have some limitations for fine color work.
But are you sure the issue isn't with the image file itself? Perhaps you need to reset the input/output curve of your photo in an image editing program like Photoshop, GraphicConverter, or Compositor?
Or am I jumping the gun in assuming you are viewing your own photos? Is this just a general web-browsing, images don't look good question?

Windows can not adjust the brightness on this display

I have a Toshiba Satellite LX835-D3300 ( Serial #ZC119804Q )
I want to brighten my display, but it tells me..... Windows can not adjust the brightness on this display.
In my HELP section on my computer it tells me to...
Tap or click PC and devices, then tap or click Display
Make sure the Adjust my screen brightness automatically slider is turned on
Get the best display on your monitor - Microsoft Windows Help
(If you don't want the screen brightness to change automatically, tap or click the Adjust my screen brightness automatically slider to turn it off.)
Tap or click Apply.
I do not have that.
I notice that if I go to the side of my screen and then click on Devices, click on projects... "Second Screen" is showning
I clicked on it and then I went and clicked on PC screen only and it is highlighted, but when I go back to it, it stills shows "Second Sreen"
Please help me. What am I doing wrong

How can I adjust the brightness of my old Apple 24" LED Display?

How can I adjust the brightness of my old Apple 24" LED Display?

Jacob,
Thank you for the quick response. I opened both the TIFF and the EPS in Illustrator. I used the Eyedropper tool to get the CMYK values of the color of the text part in the TIFF, then I went back to the EPS and selected the text and input the CMYK values in the color tab. I know it's not precise, but it's close enough. Could I have done this better?
Yes, I have access to Photoshop but I haven't tried using it with vector files. I am really new to graphic design and I need all the help I can get. Thank you!

How do I adjust the display and sound with my Macbook Pro connected to my Sony Bravia?

I just bought the DVI - HDMI and then connected my Mac to my 46" Sony Bravia. It works obviously cause I'm typing right now, but it is so painful to try and read anything less than what appears to be 14 font or so. The display is set at 1080p obviously because that's the whole point of this, but is there a way to try and make things bigger? I don't want to sit super close to the TV and fry my eyeballs, that also defeats the purpose of this. Another question regarding sound. It seems I can only adjust the sound from my keyboard, but I would rather do it through my TV's volume control so I can make things louder. Any help would be awesome. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. My dumbself forgot that right next to my new TV is my old TV, a 40" Samsung LCD. Now I put it on my desk and I have it in 1080p and everything is going good except for the fact that I can't see the top bar on my desktop and now the sound seems to be coming exclusively from my Mac instead of my TV, although I still have it hooked up with an HDMI cable. Any new thoughts?
EDIT: Ok fixed the display issue, but I'm still getting sound out of my Mac. Really confused on what to do. I don't see why I could get audio out of my Sony TV with an HDMI cable but not my Samsung. Doesn't the same principle apply? Xbox and PS3 work that way, so pretty confused unless I need to get a digital audio cable or something.

If everything else is the same, that is strange. I have seen a post or two that reported only certain HDMI ports working with computer input, so if the Sammy has another HDMI input, give that a try.

How can I adjust the length of a note? Please help.

How can I adjust the length (the sustain time) of a note after I have selected the note? Many thanks.

Just drag the right end back and forth (mouse over the end of the note - a ] appears) - by holding down ctrlshiftdragging you can change the subdivision into ticks. In the Midi event editor you can do it numerically - just change the numbers displayed in the length section.

How can I change the display of Inbox in my iPad's mail app- so that it takes up the full screen?

How can I change the display of Inbox in my iPad's mail app- so that it takes up the whole screen, as opposed to just about one third; the other two thirds display the full text of the selected email?

You can't change the display in the Mail app, if you are holding the iPad in landscape orientation then the left-hand third will be for navigation, and the right-hand two-thirds will be an email. If you hold the iPad in portrait orientation then the navigation section becomes a drop-down section.

I can not adjust the calendar in profilemanager

I can not adjust the calendar in profilemanager, in group settings, try to create a profile to calendar automatically adjusts for each user when it is installed on the client machine fails (failed). If the profile is set manually, the message - "The Calendar Account payload could not be installed. An attempt to create the account securely failed"

I think it might be becasue the Profile Distribution Type in the General payload is set to "Automatic Push" and you have an incorrect password for the calendar account. Try switching the Profile Distribution Type to Manual Download and leavign the password blank so the user has to enter it when they try to add it.
There's a weird thing where the calendar password field becomes "required" in Automatic Push mode in which case not only must there be characters entered in the field but the password must be correct for it to work. Not great for a profiel intended for more than one person.
Good luck,

How can I adjust the font size of my printouts?

I have an HP Officejet 4500 all-in-one printer and a new HP pavilion Slimline computer. Since I changed to this computer, my printouts have very small font size making them hard to read. How can I adjust the font size of the printout? Is it a computer or printer function? I appreciate the help.

I, too, am frustrated. This seems like something that would easily be handled within the application software. However, none of the fixes I've been offered have been very helpful. My cousin sugested using Control C and Control V to move the text to WORD. Once in WORD, you can manipulate the text on a WORD page...sometimes. I've had good and bad luck with this method. It still requires working in two different programs to get it legible. Does anyone else have a 4500 All-in -one with this problem, or is it only me? Thanks, [Edited for Personal Information]

Is there a way to change the master text length in FCP? The default length is 10 seconds, which is too long. I can easily adjust the length but I don't want to do it each time, and I don't want to adjust one and then have to copy and paste this length.

Is there a way to change the master text length in FCP? The default length is 10 seconds, which is too long. I can easily adjust the length but I don't want to do it each time, and I don't want to adjust a text clip and then have to copy and paste this each time. Ideally, there should be something in User Preferences but there is not. Thanks.

Maybe some one else can pipe up with a solution, but this would literally take 2 seconds to do for a new project. And you can create a "template project" that includes this "text" clip. Save this project and then to a get info and check "stationary pad." When you double click on this file, fcp will open with a copy of this project and you just need to do a save as.
I've been working with computer editing systems for longer than i can remember and at a certain point you just have to adapt your workflow to the limitations of the software.

How to change fontsize in iTunes
Take an XML-Editor and open:

For other languages change your country code (de, en, fr, pl ...).
Example for english: "\en.lproj\TextStyles.plist".
Backup this File !!!
To change the Text-Size, change the integer value of the following item:
"<key>size</key>"
"<integer>8</integer>"
This means Text-Size 8
"<key>size</key>"
"<integer>12</integer>"
This means Text-Size 12
To change the font, change the integer value of the following item:
<key>font</key>
<string>Arial</string>
This means the font changes to Arial
This also works:
<key>italic</key>
<true/>
<key>bold</key>

My printer menu is no longer displaying in English. I can't read the display to try to troubleshoot

My boss' printer HP Color LaserJet CP2025 - menu no longer displays in English. I can't read the display to troubleshoot or reset. Is there another way to change the setting?

I have not verified these steps, but this is what I located:
A. To change the display language back to English, please perform the following steps:
1. Press the right arrow 2 times, press the OK button (you should be in the System Setup menu).
2. Press the OK button again (you should be in Language).
3. Press the right arrow until you see something that may be English, press OK button. The menu is a continuous loop, so if you miss it the first time the option will return.

How can I adjust the font size, etc., when completing a PDF form in Preview?

I would like to use Preview to fill-out or complete a PDF form. The default font that Preview uses when I begin typing in a field is too large. How can I adjust the font size. And while I'm asking, can I also adjust the font color, weight, emphasis, etc.?

Whilst in the Preview application, press "Shift - Command - A" (⇧⌘A) simultaneously to show the markup toolbar, or click View, and select "show markup toolbar". There is an icon "A" near the right hand side of the now visible markup toolbar, click this icon to reveal all the font options.
