Edit webcam settings S510p

Hi everyone!
First post here. Just got the Ideapad S510p.
I was using the webcam and noticed that the colors are somewhat darker and gives a kind of "tanned" look to my face. I know this isn't the natural color as I've worked with and used many webcams on many computers, laptops, netbooks over the years. I was just wondering how I can edit the settings on the webcam to adjust brightness/contrast/hue/saturation etc?
I can't seem to find any such software included in the laptop. Do I need to download an additional software in order to access and adjust the webcam settings? Thanks.

hi joe23,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
The webcam is provided without a Software for communicating.
Settings like color saturation and hue/ brightness should be housed by the software you're using.

I want to change the settings (brightness, contrast, gamma) for my internal cam on Macbook pro. I find having to but a third party software (iglasses, webcam settings) to control basic settings as unnecessary and exploitative. Does anyone have a solution?

I want to change the settings (brightness, contrast, gamma) for my internal cam on Macbook pro. I find having to but a third party software (iglasses, webcam settings) to control basic settings as unnecessary and exploitative. Does anyone have a solution?

It is not about payment of $19.95 (Igalsses) or $7.99(webcam settings). This is a very basic setting that should be available in the system settings. The automatic setting of the internal cam does not work great on low lighting as everyone is aware.
i am just amazed how users take in lying down and suggest solutions such as paying for a 3rd party paid app or improving the lighting in your room.

Editing Site Settings Gives "Unable to process your request"

Hi,
I get "unable to process your request" when trying to edit the FIM portal site settings. I'm using my domain admin account I installed FIM under, which is also a SharePoint administrator. I'm trying to edit some basic UI details.
I've installed FIM 2010 R2 SP1 on SharePoint Foundation 2010 with SQL 2008 R2. I tried logging into the FIM portal with the fim service account, but this still gives the same error when editing site settings. I'm using separate servers for the fim portal,
fim service DB and fim sync server (all have their firewalls turned off).
Advice on how to resolve this is much appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks Tomek,
Managed to get this working - I missed out the alternate access mappings on SharePoint 80. Simply adding the internal and internet URLs worked :-)

Clicking "webcam settings" causes skype to crash

Running windows 8 desktop skype, i'm not using that metro "app" nonsense.
It's fully updated, logitech camera drivers fully updated. Every time I click "Webcam Settings" in Skype > Options > Video Settings, the program immediately stops responding and closes.
I NEED to go into webcam settings, for one it's way, way too dark everytime I restart my computer because the settings reset and I'm back to looking like i'm sitting in the dark. This has been happening for a very long time, my solution was to sign into Windows Live Messenger and using the settings window there (It does NOT crash WLM.... I'm extremely disatisfied with the news that WLM is shutting down in favour of this..) and then calling my coworker on skype.
I've tried re-installing skype, I even got a new hard drive and fresh installed Windows + all my video games to an SSD, I put skype on there as well thinking maybe it would fix my issue but it did not. Same problem.

Hi,
I'm having the exact same issue -- Skype crashes whenever I click on webcam settings. The video is very red-shifted, so I want to be able to adjust it. I wonder if you have any suggestions, but I have different hardware.
I recently bought a Lenovo Y580 laptop, running Windows 8, but I'm using Skype Desktop, *not* Metro. The laptop comes with a built-in camera. Device Manager show it as:
Lenovo Easy Camera
Manufacturer: Dmax
The driver is, which I updated, is:
Driver Provider: Realtek
Driver Date: 9/28/2012
Driver Version: 6.2.8400.10189
Based on other comments in the forum I went to the Windows Event Viewer after the crashes. Here's what it says. RtCamX.dll is part of the driver files:
Faulting application name: Skype.exe, version: 6.1.0.129, time stamp: 0x50ec1757
Faulting module name: RtCamX.dll, version: 1.0.1.118, time stamp: 0x50654128
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x0000c970
Faulting process id: 0x116c
Faulting application start time: 0x01cdfd0c6838c372
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe
Faulting module path: C:\windows\SYSTEM32\RtCamX.dll
Report Id: aeab946c-68ff-11e2-be7c-20689d7ab340
Faulting package full name:
Faulting package-relative application ID:
Any suggestions on getting this to work would be greatly appreciated. By the way, I have a Logitech C510 webcam from my desktop that works just fine with Skype on the laptop, but it would be nice to be able to use the built-in camera and adjust it.
Thanks.

How to edit proxy settings of available WLAN????

i OWN NOKIA C-3 AND FACING PROBLEM IN USING WIFI AT MY UNIVERSITY. IT SEARCHES AVAILABLE NETWORKS AND GETS CONNECTED BUT WHEN I TRY TO BROWSE THERE APPEARS AN ERROR THAT "SERVICE NOT AVAILABLE" ITS BECOZE THE PROXY SETTINGS IT PICKS UP AUTOMATICALLY ARE MAY B INCOMPLETE OR INCORRECT AND I DIDNT FOUND ANY OPTION TO EDIT ITS SETTINGS EPECIALLY PROXY SETTINGS. FEW OF MY FRIENDS ARE USING SOME OLDER MODELS OF NOKIA AND THEY HAVE EDITING OPTIONS OF PROXY ADDRESS ETC OF NETWORK WHICH YOU ARE CONNECTED WITH BUT IN MY C-3 I JUST CAN VIEW THE SETTINGS PICKED UP AUTOMATICALLY BUT CANT EDIT SETTINGS
CAN ANY BODY HELP ME TO TACKLE THIS PROBLEM?

unfortunately i have to use 1.4 which makes this a bit more tricky.
my other idea was to use system.setProperties to set the 2 proxy fields and then afterwards set them back to what they were -- however in the case they were null I get an NPE when I try and set them back, so I'd need a workaround for that as well.

How can i edit APN settings on 4s

how can i edit APN settings on 4s

The above post won't help you.
The iPhone already contains the correct APN settings for all supported carriers, & any updates to those settings are done automatically. Fact is, most carriers don't want users messing with these settings. As far as a carrier adding itself to this database, if not supported, doesn't work that way.
If you have an officially unlocked iPhone, & you're trying to use it with a non-supported carrier, you're gonna have to manually edit these settings. Directions here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2283
And here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4839
Or, you can go here:
http://www.unlockit.co.nz/unlockit/
That web site contains a collection of APN settings for non-supported carriers.

Where is the Edit Develop Settings option???

Hi all
I am doing some study for my Photoshop ACE exam with the help of a study guide (ACE Exam Aid).
One of the questions it asks is:
You have saved the current image settings as a preset in Camera Raw and want to apply it in part or whole to selected raw files in bridge. What should you do?
The answer turns out to be: Choose Edit > Develop Settings and then select preset by name.
Now for the life of me I can't seem to find this Edit > Develop settings option in Photoshop, Camera RAW or Bridge!
Any help would be greatly apprecaited.

Highlight an image in bridge, then simply go to edit and it is the 11th choice down in the list.

Edit Color settings (Bridge/InDesign)

Hi all, today in office we have a discussion about Edit > Color settings (we use this setting from Bridge for syncro).
The question is: if i change Color settings (es. i change the rgb or cmyk working space) from InDesign i change only the swatches color? Is this correct? Because the graphic imported can (or not) maintain their color profile. What is wrong?
Many thanks!

Edit > Color settings (we use this setting from Bridge for syncro).
Color Settings is an application preference—you are setting the color preferences for new documents. So changing the Working Spaces in Color Settings will only affect existing documents if they have no color profile assigned (i.e., the Color Management Policies were set to Off when the document was created). If you want to change a document's profile you have to do it via Edit > Assign or Convert to Profile...
1) if i draw a frame filled cyan swatch, this color have the profile color that i set in the color settings?
All native colors are assigned the document's profile (see Edit > Assign profiles...). The assigned profile isn't necessarily the same as the current Color Setting's working space
2) if i import graphic with or without icc profile the assignment will be only when i export pdf, is it correct?
If an imported CMYK graphic has no profile embedded, or the document's CMYK policy is Off or Preserve Numbers (Ignore Linked Profiles), it will be assigned the document's profile.
When you export a PDF, the Output settings tab determines whether colors will be converted or profiles will be included.

Edit application settings AIR for iOS not working

Hi all,
I'm trying to create a .ipa so I can test my app on my iPhone but my Flash cs6 will no longer let me edit application settings so I can publish the file.
The first time I did it, it was working fine. I added my certificate and my Provisioning Profile and published a .ipa file.
Now, when I click the wrench tool icon or go through the file menu and select AIR for iOS settings, nothing happens. All it does is generate an .xml file for me ("filename"-app.xml).
What is wrong and how can I fix this?
I've tried rebooting.
I have the same problem on Flash cs6 and Flash cs5.5 on two different computers.
I have an iOS development Certificate.
I have an iOS development Provisioning Profile.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Cheers,
André

STRANGE WAY TO EDIT CUSTOM SETTINGS

Ok, trying to edit custom settings. Cannot. Can only Save As. Cant directly edit custom settings I have created. However, if i open a new Settings window, then double click my custom setting, i can then edit and save without having to Save As. That doesn't seem right does it? This happens no matter how I open compressor, whether I send file to it, open directly, or open recent menu.
Is that a bug? My compressor had bugged out recently 3.02, and I had to remove/reinstall compressor.

I know what you're talking about. I was so frustrated just now. Duplicated a setting and wanted to rename it and change the description. But both were grayed out.
After I read your posts, I went to Window>Settings to open a new Settings window. When I highlighted a setting in that window, the Name and Description fields were not grayed and now I can make changes. I closed the old, messed up window and kept the open one. Weird.
I'm using Compressor 3.0.

Webcam settings

I'm having a few problems with my webcam, and when I look at Options-->Video Settings-->Webcam Settings, there is a strange third tab all in Chinese (my computer, OS, and skype are all set up in English). See attachment. Anyone come across this before?
Tom
Solved!

That comes from your drivers, not from Skype. You would have to change out your camera's drivers. You can always try the generic Microsoft ones (USB Video device) that should remain English.

Thunderbird V3 Menu location: Edit | Account Settings | account name | Server Settings not listed in edit menu?

Thunderbird v 3 help info is different than what actually is shown in the edit option list. Menu location: Edit | Account Settings | <account name> | Server Settings
Looking for ISP setting that instructs ISP(rr) to keep emails on serer until erased by user. This setting was in earlier versions of Thunderbird. This settings is used to download email to other user computers. When user's computer breaks down user has to reload email onto new setup.
Scenario is to go to Thunderbird V 3 Edit --> Account Settings and discover this option no longer exists. See earlier version where you can go to Account Settings and select email to be left on server for optional number of days or until erased by user.
Thanks for help,
Bob

This is my problem too. I don't usually need to edit settings but yahoo or gmail have had temporary problems with their smtp servers, when they do I can simply go to account settings and change from one to the other. Now when I open the account settings window and left or right click on ANY account or setting for an account in the left tree I get the error window with this message:
"The Local Directory path "C:\Users\Len\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\dlcdrtl6.default\Mail\Local Folders" is not suitable for message storage. Please choose another directory."
Clicking OK in the window brings up another message window with the same message as above:
"An account with this name already exists. Please enter a different account name."
I cannot exit the account settings box by clicking OK. I need to click cancel. This effectively makes it impossible to change any account settings. This worked a few months ago as I switched smtp servers when gmail had problems, now I'm screwed if I need to.
This is a problem with one of the new versions it should be marked critical as account settings need be configurable and I don't see any workaround like there is for pasting links.
