Can I use a Canon Lens profile if there isn't a Sony profile ?

I just bought the Tamron SP 90 2.8 DI MACRO USD and LR lens profiles only lists this lens for Canon (F004E) and Nikon (F004N). There is no profile for Sony (F004S) ! Any drawback if I use F004E or N ? Or better use a the profile of the older Model of that lens where there is a Sony profile ?
Thanks for answers !

One could ask why are there versions of the same profile for Nikon, Canon, Sony and may be others ?
Good question.
My guesses:
* The lens description is not guaranteed to be unique across all camera models, so having camera model in the mix assures the correct lens is unambiguously chosen.
* Adobe wants to reserve the right to do things differently based on camera model, for the reasons hinted at in my previous post (e.g. data may be registered differently in the lens depending on camera model).
It's kinda like camera calibration profiles - there is a separate Adobe Standard profile for every camera, and in many cases, it's identical to that for other cameras, but in some cases, it's different.
PS - I think Eric Chan is the only person likely to give you a definitive answer here, but maybe some other savvy user knows..
Cheers,
Rob

Can i use a canon like 30 scanner with yosemite ?

can i use a canon lide 30 scanner with yosemite ? i cannot load any drivers

MissBea,
You can probably use your Canon printer with your HP notebook.
When connecting an HP printer to the computer, the printer works best when the printer software for that printer is downloaded and installed on the computer.
I would suggest that you need to do the same for the cannon printer, that is, you should download and install the driver (software) onto the computer. After you install the driver, and connect the printer using whatever means you have (wireless, USB, Ethernet), you should be able to control the printer from the computer.
Instead of installing HP printer software, you will need to install the printer software for your cannon printer.

However, in the past I have been able to video chat with a friend. Can I use the built-in for a video webcam?
Yes.
If so, how?
Software runs iSight. Use webcam applications for webcam functions - other apps for other functions. Check each app of interest for functions offered and system requirements. To use a chosen app, follow the instructions and Help suggestions.

Do I have to activate it somehow?
Yes. You must launch the software to use it. Then follow the instructions and Help suggestions.
Or do I need extra software?
Not unless you want functions not provided by the iSight capable apps that came with your Mac OS (including iChat, QuickTime X, Photo Booth, etc.)
A new external video camera?
Only if you cannot make your iSight work or want features offered by an external cam but not by your inbuilt iSight.
I want to use this simply to check in on pets while away so I do not need high quality video. Thank you.
Choose from the *Webcam Apps* or iSight as a surveillance or Nanny cam: sections of this page, being certain your system supports the minimum requirements of the app whose features you want:

HT203175 I have no problem signing on to iTunes my issue is once on the site I can not use the "search". It says there is a runtime error R6025 pure virtual function call. Has anyone had this problem and how do I fix it. Thanks

I do not have a problem getting in the iTunes stores. My issue is once on the site I can not use the "search". It says there is a pure virtual function call R6025. How can I solve this problem? Do I have to create a new account? Do I have to uninstall and re-install? Thanks

Thanks so much for your feedback. I really appreciate any input here.
If someone from Adobe could GUARANTEE that this problem would go away if I
purchased CS4, I would pony up the cash and do it. However, I'm skeptical
about that because I just saw someone else post a message on the forum today
who is running CS4 and getting the exact same runtime error as me.
I'll try un-installing and re-installing as Admin, and if that doesn't work,
maybe I can find a used copy of CS3.
In the meantime, I'm also wondering if a Photoshop file can carry any sort
of corrupt metadata inside it once it has errored out? Reason I ask is, I
had to port all of my old PSD files to the new computer, and I only seem to
be getting this error when I attempt to work on one of the files that
previously got the runtime error when they were sitting on my XP machine.
When I create new files from scratch on this new computer, they seem to be
working just fine (at least, for now).
If so, I would probably be smart to never open those troublesome
"errored-out" files again.

I bought an iphone5 from saudi arabia,can i use it in india?is there any requirements i have to take?many one are saying i need to unlock it,please any one help me,i did'nt activate my phone yet.

If the phone is unlocked then you can use it in India.
If your phone is locked, then the only way to get the phone unlocked is to contact your phone company/carrier. The person that sold you the phone in Saudi should have told you whether it was locked or unlocked. Contact them to check and then contact the carrier to have it unlocked if it is locked.
Other than that there is not a lot that you can do - perhaps it was unwise to purchase a phone in Saudi - it won't have Facetime on it if you got it there.

Planning to buy iPad Mini with Cellular in US with TMobile Carrier. Is this unlocked? can i use my iPad in India with there cellular service??

That will depend on how you buy the iPad.
If you buy it from an Apple Store directly at full price it will be unlocked, and can take a sim card from any compatible GSM carrier.
If you buy it directly from T-Mobile under a subsidy(at a discount price tied to a service contract) Then it may be locked to T-Mobile for at least 40 days of service with them.

Missing Canon lens profile into lightroom

Hi Guys
I have LR4.1 and I just realized that I am missing the one for my 100-400 f4,5/5,6
any idea how can I get it ?
Many thanks
have a super day, Thierry

It is possible to save a duplicate of the lens profile file, and "kludge" it from Raw to non-Raw using a text editor. This generally works well enough; much better than manual corrections alone - provided that the camera is not also applying lens correction, and so confusing matters.

Can I use my Canon Speedlight 199A with my Canon T2i?

I have a 199A from my days with my AE-1. Both work! Can I use the 199A with my T2i?

Automatic flash exposure with an AE-1 (btw, I still have my AE-1) and modern Canon E-TTL of today are VERY different.
While you can use your flash as a "manual" flash... you may want to invest in newer gear.
On your 199A, there was no "TTL" capability of the flash. That flash has 3 "auto" power levels... a high, medium, and low. It merely told the camera to set the f-stop to either f/2.8, f/5.6, or f/11.
The flash unit has a thyristor sensor on the front that measures the light return to the flash and then cuts off the flash when it thinks it's received enough light. Highly reflective surfaces could fool it into thinking it had recevied enough light and shut down even if the subject of interest was underexposed.
Modern E-TTL II flash is MUCH MUCH smarter. As the name implies, it is actual "TTL" metering... meaning the camera and flash are have bi-direction communication.
E-TTL does the following:
It meters the scene with no flash whatsoever -- using "evaluative" metering and noting the amount of light present in each zone of the scene.
It fires a pre-flash at low power level. Typically the default is 1/32nd power, but you can configure the flash to change that.
While the pre-flash is illuminating the scene, the camera meters the scene again.
The camera then compares each zone of the scene WITH the pre-flash to each zone of the scene WITHOUT the pre-flash. Respective zones with very big difference indicate reflective objects (e.g. mirrors). Zones with almost no difference indicate probable light sources (e.g. a light source in the scene... such as a table lamp, street light, etc.). Zones with a more reasonable difference indicate actual elements of the scene benefiting from flash. Having isolated zones which aren't reliable indicators of flash... the camera concentrates on calculating needed flash power by looking at the remaining zones.
If the flash is mounted on-camera and also pointed directly ahead (and ONLY if both of these conditions are true) THEN the E-TTL system will also request lens focusing distance information and take this into account when calcuating flash power. This is because the "inverse square" law can be applied. If the flash is off-camera then the computer cannot assume that the lens distance and flash distance are the same. Also if the flash is being bounced then the distance the light will need to travel will not match the lens focus distance. Hence, it only uses this info if both conditions are true.
With all of the above considered, the computer decides how much power should be used for the "real" shot and the camera opens the shutter and the flash fires using the calcuated power level.
All of this happens so fast that most people presume the flash just fired once.
Thyristor flash would be fooled by a strong light source (e.g. shooting into the sun and trying to use the flash as "fill" would fool the unit into thinking enough light had been delivered -- there are many things that could trick a thyristor-based auto flash.
Modern E-TTL does much more... that was just the basics, but you can see how the system is much more clever about figuring out how much power is really needed and knows how to isolate areas of the scene that used to fool auto-flash technologies of the past.
Modern flash can provide high-speed sync (rapid successive pulses of light as the curtain shutters sweep across the sensor at speeds faster than the flash "sync" speed.
Modern flash can also provide "2nd curtain" sync... where the flash fires just before closing the shutter rather than just after the shutter opens. When shooting a subject to imply motion while using flash, this provides more directional blur that the eye expects.
Some (but not all) modern flash can provide "multi-strobic" flash... where the flash pulses several times at a slower speed (you control) during a very long exposure. E.g. if I photograph an athelte "throwing a ball" you get images of them at many different points throughout the "throw" all in one exposure due to multi-strobic mode.
Most modern flash can participate in multi-light shooting scenarios where one flash acts as a "master" to tell the other units when to fire (and at what power level) and the others act as "slaves" (taking orders from the master) to provide better lighting (read specs carefully... some units can only be "slaves", some can only be "masters", and some can be either.)
Modern flash technology really has evolved and refined what you can do with flash.

Can I use the same TB profile on my laptop and PC via Onedrive or iCloud? If so, how?

I know I can move the location of my TB profile and create new ones using Profile manager. I have done this using my Onedrive account and TB works fine. It would be very useful to be able to use the same Onedrive profile from two PCs but is this possible and how can I do it? Many thanks.

It is possible, but prone to failure.
You can not simultaneously share a profile
Network speed is critical. Thunderbird portable and a thumb drive would be a better solution.

Can I use the same inport profile to load multiple dimemsions?

Hi,
I am trying to create an Import Profile that will allow me to load multiple ADS files, at seperate occasions, and thereby create or update different dimenssions. I have created multiple Import Profiles,
1.I have ticked both the Options : Create dimensions for all non-mapped dimensions...and Select All - merge as shared.
2. Only - Create dimensions for all non-mapped dimensions
3 Only - Select All - merge as shared.
Neither seem to work.
Any advice would be greatly appreacited.
Thanks,
Charlie

Since the laptops are the same model-yes, you can use your Recovery Discs on both.
