Changing import settings for brightness etc

Hi there,
I'm importing RAW files from my Canon 5D, and they all come in with the brightness set to +50 and the contrast to +25, the blacks are +5, and the tone curve has a slight "S" curve on it. I appreciate this is probably a "good thing", but how do I get LR to import with entirely neutral settings?
Many thanks
J

ThEse are genera;ized settings that aDobe figures will work for many users. Do your own presets, more than one if you have to, and apply appropriately on import.
If you have more than one camera you might want more than one for the differences, for instance.

Highest quality import settings for iTunes 9?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;ylt=AooGuxvheq40oC0etoPY8yvty6IX;ylv=3?qid=20090909143724AALIlSP
*What are the highest quality import settings for iTunes 9?*
I just got iTunes 9 and I want to know what the HIGHEST quality import settings are with the exception of Apple Lossless. I usually import cd's as
AAC
Stereo Bit Rate: 320kbps
Sample Bit Rate: 48.000 kHz
Channels: Stereo
Now when I go into the custom menu and try to set these settings, it gives me an error message that reads the following:
"The selected combination of bit rate and sample rate is not allowed."
I was thinking about using WAV but I want a format that will be compatible with other/future personal media players as well such as Zune's and Creative MP3 players. Right now I have an iPod and don't plan on changing anytime soon. I just want the highest quality sound for my ears to hear.
so, *What is the highest for AAC?*
*Should I switch to WAV?*
& if you could, *What are highest quality settings for the other formats as well.*

well i personally think you should go with mp3 at 320kbps (max for that file format) main reason for this is that mp3 is compatible with pretty much everything, where as aac isn't although it is getting a bit better. the main difference between aac and mp3 is in the lower bit rates, i.e aac 128kbps sounds equivalent to mp3 192kbps (suppoesdly) but when you go from 192kbps and up both file formats sound basically the same, just a variation in file size. ig you want the highest quality for you ipod i would say 320kbps mp3. anything higher isn't worth it becuase most earphones cant even pick it up, only if you have high quality ones.

Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it does not then the problem lies with your original library.
If that's the case try the following on your original library:
If you have the space available on your hard drive and don't aready have a backup copy of the library make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Commadn+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

I just traded in my iPhone 4S for Samsung Galaxy 4S, still have iPad. Some of my iPhone contacts are unable to send me a txt that I can receive. But NOT all of my iPhone contacts. I have had them change their settings for my ph number to NOT say iPhone. Txt msg is disabled on iPad. I have no idea what to do. I called the support line that I Pay $9.99 a month for. They told me to delete my iTunes account. Will I lose all my pics on my ipad? I have no music download. I'm getting ****** at this whole thing. And it allllllll started with apples update to the ios7.... I HATED IT. Help.

What your iPhone using friends label your phone number in their contacts is irrelevant. I don't know who you pay $9.99 a month to but it's not Apple. You can't disable text messaging on your iPad as it is not capable of SMS.
Do you still have the iPhone? If so, log out of iMessage on the iPhone.

Also, try changing the password on your iTunes account.

HELP !!! can i change page-settings for a single page ??

hi all,
i´ve got a problem with my document settings:
can i change the settings (especially the documentborders) for a single page, without changing the settings for the whole other document pages ?
for example: page 1 --> border left 2cm , right 1cm
page 2 --> border left 4cm , right 1cm
PLEASE HELP ME !!!

Hello mamamague
All you need to do is select Insert->Section Break. A new page will be started. To adjust the margins you need to select the Layout Inspector (second icon on the top of the inspector) and adjust the margins in there. The Document Inspector still makes global changes and the layout ones are relative to them. It helps to turn Show Layout and Show Invisibles on so you can see what's happening to the document format as you play with these settings.
Good luck!

I am sorry but this isn't something that you can set. The system has timeouts built into the code.

To ensure you don't lose any data you don't want taken off, ensure that each Summary, Apps, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, iTunes U, Books, & Photos have the settings you would prefer on the computer.
If anything gets changed on any of those pages, you will be prompted with that message. If they look fine, especially after adding some media like songs or videos, then you can apply the changes without fear.

Constant "you have changed the settings for the iphone" in iTunes

On my iPhone 4, I can sync my phone with no issues, and when the sync is done and I switch over to the iTunes store or my library, it always pops up with "You have changed the settings for the iphone "my iPhone". Would you like to apply these settings?"
I can hit apply, go to something different, come back, do nothing but sync my phone again, and as soon as I switch back to something else, I get the message again...
I didn't change anything, but it keeps saying I have?

Wow...
That is pretty bad...
From what I've gathered. There has been an increasing number of issues ever since iTunes 9 and more problems with iOS4 for the non iPhone 4 users.
It's such a shame because I used to actually comment on how iTunes worked seamlessly and so quickly. This actually feels as if I'm running a typical bloated windows software now. [And to my great surprise, an equal number of people using iTunes on MacOS have given the same kind of feedback. I originally thought it was restricted to just windows users.]

Change view "Settings for Infosets": Details

Your assistance is urgently required
Thanks,

Hi Josef I'm not entirely with you on this one.
When I look on the device Apple TV in iTunes, everything I have streamed to apple TV from iTunes is grayed out but when looking at the photos tab which I have synced is not grayed allowing me to change whatever I want to sync. Is this different to yours? or I'm I misunderstanding your point.

Dear All,
Can you tell me where to change the settings for F.13, I am not getting the dynamic selection option.
Currently, when I want to clear the open items for GL account, it group them based on Assignement number, while me requirement is to group them as per the Rebate Agreement number.
Any idea, where this can be changed?
Thanks in Advance

Hi Vijay,
Please go to OB74, there are a number of criterion based on which you can do clearing, I believe currently you have ZUONR field as criterin for clearing, change it to agreement No. or you can set this as an additional criterion for clearing.
Hope this helps you.

Changing default settings for video effect?

Hi,
I have a ton of interview clips to which I am adding the Timecode effect for transcriptions and translations.
For each clip I increase the size and opacity, remove the field symbol and change Timecode Source to Media. I have hundreds of clips and changing the settings for each clip is a real pain.
Is there any way to change the default settings of the effect so I can just drag the effect to the clips and be done with it?
Thanks.

Set up the timecode effect the way you like it on one clip,
then right-click the clip and select 'Copy'.
Select all of the other clips to which you want to apply the same effect,
right-click and select 'Paste Attributes'.

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.
