  • Monitor calibration and color eyes display pro

    Hi trying to calibrate a 27 inch imac for photos. If I use the color eyes display pro with calibration it hijacks the video card. Will this make my computer out of apple care warranty? Thanks. Any other calibrators that work? Color munki?

    Apparently photoshop is applying additional color correction on top of
    what the monitor calibration software has already done. Is this
    necessary? If this step is necessary, then why doesn't the monitor
    calibration software do that, so that photoshop doesn't have to,
    Photoshop doesn't apply any color correction to the images per se, it just operates in a selected color space, and takes into account your monitor profile.
    The monitor calibration tells your video card - or the monitor itself for some high end monitors, how it should be set to meet chosen targets, and generates a profile for the monitor.
    1. Caibrate your monitor and generate a profile
    2. Tell your OS that that it your monitor profile
    3. Set Photoshop to work in the space of your choice - sRGB, Adobe RGB, or ProPhoto 99% of the time
    That takes you to a state where everything is in order more or less. If at this point your images look out of whack, it's almost certainly because they are, perhaps because they were previously corrected on a non-calibrated setup.
    Photoshop and other color managed application should display them all more or less exactly the same, provided the files themselves have a color profile .

  • I have eye-fi pro x2 i wont constant slideshow with every new snapshot what can i do?

    i need help for eye-fi pro x2 to lightroom how to constant slideshow non-stop with eveven new picture taking

    Really you need to post the exact model. Some of these old iMac can be upgraded OSX in theory, but in practice it's likely to be glacially slow and not worth doing.
    The problem with USB dongles of any sort is that they need drivers, and it's fairly unlikely you will be able to get OS9 drivers now. However, it's worth researching - if you could get that to work OS9 would be fine for web browsing as long as you don't want to do some of the more advanced things. Ordinary sites will work fine. Things like .Mac's Web Gallery won't.
    If your iMac is one of these it may have an ethernet socket. if so, Linksys make a wireless bridge which will connect your wireless network to ethernet without needing drivers, and it should be possible to set this up as a network connection.

    Brand new nMP Mac Pro 6,1 Late 2013.... and it is defective - the older silver tower might be easier to find parts but at least it is not 65 lbs and is something that can be taken in - which I think you really need to do.
    When you run etrecheck from www.etresoft.com it can show what is installed, drivers and might help point to something on software side.
    Grant is the go-to person here I think among others for networking issues.
    Airport Express and signal strength, channel it is trying to use, whether the Network control panel settings are "correct" or need to be changed (even the order, what it is trying to look for and use).
    If you move it to another spot or put another computer over in that general vicinity...? behaves the same.
    I recall reading where the MacBook Pro model in 2012? and switched to a new chipset and some very long (huge) threads in their forum - which means also there was no real solution given.
    No, should not be. And other than network tests would be booting into Apple DiagnosticsTest mode - pulls down from Apple servers.

  • Can the iPad2 receive video clips from an Eye-Fi Pro X2 card?

    I had success using the Direct Connect mode to send PICTURES from my Eye-Fi card to the iPad2, however it would not recognize video files either from my GoPro HD HERO2 or my Canon G12 powershot. Are other people having this issue?

    Pad2, the new iPad Supported Video Formats & Movie Formats
    H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    Another way to import videos. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • An old-chestnut...Eye-One Pro problems

    Can anyone help me? There was a thread running a while ago, since closed, about problems with X-Rite Eye-One monitor and print profiler, and problems with getting the kit working. It all seemed to boil down to a problem with HP drivers. I gave up on this matter last year, assuming I'd lost my money, but I really do need to do a print-profile, and the kit is still not recognised in Leopard. The solution appeared, then, to be deleting HP drivers supplied by HP, and then to re-install HP drivers supplied by Apple. Is this still the only way of fixing this, and if so, how do I get the HP drivers from Apple (the link given by X-Rite to Apple doesn't work)? If anyone has found a solution to this infuriating issue, I'd be very grateful.
    Thanks,
    Ben

    Ben,
    I'm afraid I don't know as for the X-Rite & Print Profiler. But I know that the Apple HP Divers are on the Leopard Disk, or the Restore disks that came with your computer.

  • Pink cast from custom display profile on MacBook Pro

    Brand new MacBook Pro
    Mac Osx 10.4.8
    running Photoshop Cs2 & Cs3(Beta)
    GretagMacbeth Profilemaker 5.0.8
    Eye-One pro spectrophotometer
    I am wondering if there are any known issues with making monitor profiles for the new intel mac laptops?
    I have created a display profile for my new MacBook Pro.
    The profile gives me a pronounced pink magenta cast when i open my images in Photoshop Cs2 & Cs3.
    I am satisfied that my colour settings in Cs2 & Cs3 are correct.
    I have a good knowledge of Color Management & how to implement it into my workflow.
    I cross checked some sample images on My old desktop G4 mac & also on my Windows pc both using Crt monitors.
    The image's were fine on both machines and merely highlighted how wrong the display profile was on the Laptop.
    I took the monitor profile out of the loop in Photoshop by doing a View>Proof Setup>Monitor RGB & checked "preserve colour numbers".
    This allowed me to check the black point & gamma & they seemed fine.
    But when I brought the display profile back I had the cast again.
    I have checked Profilemaker 5.0.8 & my Eye-One pro by using them to update the profile & calibration on my Apple G4 desktop mac & also on my old Dell pc.
    In both cases the Monitor's connected are Crt as opposed to Lcd.
    The resulting Profiles were fine & as expected not different from the previous profiles made using the same eye-one & Profilemaker 5.0.7
    I have also very recently created an output profile for my epson printer which also seemed perfect.
    That seems to suggest that the Profiling software & hardware are working perfectly.
    That narrows things down to the MacBook Pro.
    Incidentally if I set the default Apple supplied "Color Lcd" as the system display profile the images display perfectly with no cast.
    I also created a new user account on my MacBook Pro in case there was conflict with some of the other software on my system.
    Again in this separate account the default Color Lcd profile resulted in a very close match between how the sample images looked on the laptop screen & both Crt displays.
    I have tried various ways of creating the profile for the Laptop in Profilemaker 5.0.8 but apart from some differences in Luminosity I still end up with the pink cast creating profile.
    Any body got any ideas or similar experiences.
    I cheked with Gretmacbeth & they said as far as they are concerned it's probably a mac issue.They claim that it is usually a video driver that apple will quietly update without any declaration
    MacBook Pro 17"   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I don't know the answer to your question, however I tried using my MonacoOptix device on my 17" MBP, and I get a severe green cast! I was thinking it was probably some incompatibility because my device and software are a few years old now, but wonder now what device/software might make a good profile on the new MBP's???

  • Images imported via card reader from Eye-Fi chip are garbled

    Laptop is g580 20157, factory installed windows 8
    Eye-Fi Pro x2 8 GB WiFi
    When using the Eye-Fi via the sd media reader, imported images are garbled. Some thumbnails look ok, others not. All images when previewed are bad.
    When using the Eye-Fi sd to usb converter, images import just fine. When using usb cable to import from camera, images import just fine. When using a non-Eye-Fi sd chip, images import just fine.

    Hi JayWilson,
    Thanks for posting and welcome to the Lenovo Community,
    I’d like to ask you to share with us the status of using the wireless connection is it stable with you and working fine?
    And I’d like to advise you to try to contact the service provider for your Eye-Fi card as i need to share with you the
    requirements for the Eye-fi card that you have:
    Computer with Windows 7/XP (SP3)/Vista or Mac OSX 10.5+ (Intel only) and 100MB of free space.
    And as I understand from your post your machine came with windows 8.
    Hope the information helps. Let us know.
    Regards

  • Aperture with Eye-Fi Wireless Card

    Before I go ahead and spend my hard earned cash, does anyone know if Aperture works 'seamlessly" with the Eye-Fi Pro memory card?

    Aytch wrote:
    So, as a person who has never run an AppleScript in my life is it straightforward to do, and am I right in thiinking that when I have run it the card will just connect and import into the Aperture library..... can feel a spend coming on
    The Applescript part is easy, the script we talking about +Aperture Hot Folder+ will appear as just another application. The fact that is is an Applescript won't matter to you, just click it or select it in spotlight or do whatever you do to launch an application.
    It will ask you to tell it what folder you want to use as the *hot folder*, how you want to import the images into Aperture and what project in Aperture to place them in, create the folder if it needs to and sit and wait for files to appear in that folder. When they do it does Applescripty things to Aperture to get Aperture to import the images.
    Thats as far as I can go, I've never used or seen a wi-fi card so how you get the images off the card into that folder is left as an exercise for the reader. Perhaps the video on their website will send some light on the procedure.
    Good luck,let us know how it works for you.

  • 5D3 min. shutter speed hidden feature / bug

    The ISO speed settings - Min. Shutter speed setting allows setting the shutter speed automatically based on focal length of the lens or manually to a certain value.
    The on screen help indicates this setting only affects photo mode.
    But when shooting video the camera will still use this setting to determine shutter speed.
    This feature can be used to slow down shutter speed when using a long lens (on a tripod)
    The hidden feature thus is to go back to photo mode and modify the setting to either get a shutter speed in video mode that corresponds to the focal length or equal to e.g. 1/60, which allows for a lower iso value.
    The issue being this feature is very usable in video mode, but the camera hides this setting when in video mode, as it assumes this shouldn't affect video.
    It would be great if this menu item could be enabled in video mode too for a future firmware release.
    From wishlist point of view I think it would be great if the minimum shutter speed could be set to automatically slow down shutter speed when a lens with Image Stabilization in mode on are being used. A setting that allows to drop shutter speed by 1/2 or 1/4 with IS activated can be handheld and nicely interact with Auto ISO.
    Regards,

  • LR 4.2RC and ACR 7.2 RC won't read SONY RX 100 ARW files

    I was at a wedding yesterday and had two cameras with me - a Nikon D800 and my little SONY RX 100.  I was using an Eye-Fi Pro card for the Sony.  I'm uninterested in the Wi-Fi capabilities when I'm away from home, but like the camera to upload pictures when I'm close to my big processing machine.  Long story short.  This was the first time I've used the LR 4.2RC and ACR 7.2RC with the Sony RX 100.  I plugged the card into both the regular Eye-Fi USB reader, and into my Hoodman USB 3.0 reader.  Of course, LR doesn't like the Eye-Fi reader, but it loves the Hoodman.  Finally, it recognized the Hoodman and the Eye-Fi card.  I have previews set to minimal and I was attempting to import all the raw (ARW) files into Lightroom.  When the initial previews come up as I start the import process, it shows about 1/3 of the previews and then tells me it can't read the rest, including MP4 files.  When I actually begin the import, it simply times out and reports that it was unable to import ANY of the ARW files, nor the MP4 files.  I have no trouble reading 63 files into Raw Photo Processor so I know there is nothing wrong with any of the files.  I can only conclude that there is something wrong with LR 4.2 and/or ACR 7.2.
    Anyone else reporting this problem?  I'm puzzled because this is the ONLY time I have ever had trouble importing files from supported cameras.
    Thanks for feedback.

    Well.  After some experimentation, I discovered what the problem seems to be.  For reasons completely opaque to me, Lightroom expects not only that the Eye-Fi card will be read from its own reader, but it also expects that the Eye-Fi helper application be installed and running.  Of course, this means that I end up with duplicate copies of every file - once to the Eye Fi directory, and again to the appropriate Lightroom Folder on a completely different set of drives.   I guess the conclusion I can draw from this is that without the helper application, the Eye Fi card is dumb and the images only partly visibible.  The Eye-Fi helper can import the .ARW files, but it doesn't display them because Apple hasn't updated its camera list to include the RX100.  Until they do, I think I'll just use regular cards and consign the Eye-Fi card to the hall of unhelpful cards.  Yikes, the darned thing is as expensive as the Lightroom upgrade.
    Sigh.

  • Can you edit AVCHD footage from a DSLR in Final Cut Express?

    We're planning on using a DSLR that shoots AVCHD video as a B Camera on a shoot that will be edited in Final Cut Express for posting on You Tube. Will this work in Final Cut Express?

    Yes, provided you convert the video to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec before importing it into FCE.
    Many users like MPEG Streamclip for this purpose, and it does a great job.
    If you are using a Canon DSLR there is a plugin for Final Cut Pro but not for Final Cut Express, so you have to convert the video yourself before importing into FCE.   (In Final Cut Pro, the EOS E1 plugin allows you to directly Log & Transfer from the 5D and 7D).

  • Images look fine in Bridge, but way off when opened in Photoshop

    Not sure what I've done to my system, but am now having some color-management woes. I am using Photoshop and Bridge CS5.1, and for some reason, the color-management is not consistent between Bridge and PS... although it used to be until just recently. I am on a Mac Pro tower with a properly calibrated monitor (using an Eye One Pro), and all my other color-managed applications are behaving just fine, but I have this discrepancy now within Adobe where if I view an image in Bridge, it looks correct, but when I open that same image in Photoshop, it comes up way too light and desaturated. I have verified that a correct profile is embeded in each image, but this happens regardless of the source file. I have opened up grayscale images with a dot gain or gamma profile embedded, images with no profile embedded, sRGB and Adobe 1998 profiled images, and they all open up too bright. It seems like some kind of conversion must be happening, but I can't understand what that would be. Color Settings is set to preserve embedded and ask when opening for mismatches, but that's the same as it's always been on my system. I understand without a "suite" install, I cannot access the Creative Suite Color Settings dialog to sync color across multiple Adobe apps, but things have been fine for years between my PS & Bridge, so clearly I've done something wrong. It's also worth noting that RAW images in Bridge open up looking identical in the Photoshop RAW processing dialog, so somehow this is more related to TIFF, PSD & JPEG files.
    I have used the Cocktail app for general system maintenance on my Mac, and in the dialog to delete old cahce files, I do recall it had an option to clear Color Sync cache (along with a bunch of other caches), so maybe that "clean up" somehow dirsupted my color matching abilities?
    I was on CS5 when I noticed this problem, so I tried uninstalling that, downloading the slightly newer CS5.1 and re-installing, but the problem persists. Maybe the uninstaller app doesn't get rid of all the hidden support files, or maybe this is something else entirely? Have trashed prefs files and relaunched, still same problem.
    Note how image on right is much lighter, shadows start to look posterized, colors lose saturation. Left is Bridge and Right is Photoshop. Screenshot done on calibrated monitor.
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    Thanks for your reply. Screenshot of my Color Settings attached. These are the same settings I've been using for many years.
    What's most interesting is your reminder to look at Soft Proofing. I normally only use that when prepping an image for print, and want to predict what different paper types will "do" to my image.,, i.e. matte paper has less d-max, etc. SO, My assumption was that Soft Proofing is normally in the OFF position unless I turn it on, and/or toggle it on-off with Cmd-Y keyboard shortcut one engaged. BUT, your assessment was spot-on, in that when I opened up the View > Proof Colors dialog, it was set to Working CMYK. Not sure why, how, or when that became the default.
    In all my time years with Photoshop, I've never needed to worry about soft proofing being ON without my permission, so I'm unclear how this came about. I honestly don't even know what the default has been for all the time that this was not on my radar as being a problem, I only know that when I did opt to soft proof an image, I woulp open the Proof Colors dialog, choose the appropriate device-specific paper profile to simulate, and then turn it back off when done. It would make sense to me that the default display in PS should match the (hopefully calibrated) monitor as a starting point.
    Several more screenshots below, experimenting with various Proof conditions. This one is a 16-bit Grayscale image, with my usual 1.8 Gray Gamma color space embedded. This was my first experiment, not knowing what the correct default should have been (or was for many years). My assumption was that proofing the same color space as the document (G 1.8 = G 1.8), there should be no visible difference, but in fact there is. The left image is open in PS being soft proofed to it's own G 1.8 color space, and it appears visibly brighter than the same image to the right in Bridge. 
    Now here's the same comparison, with Proofing set to G 2.2, which should be wrong, but visually looks like a much better match.
    Next I tried a color image, with Document Profile as the proof condition. Again, the Bridge image on the right looks correct, the PS image on the left looks washed out by comparison.
    Here is the same image comparison, now with Monitor RGB enabled (which pulls my current monitor profile as the device to simuulate). I'd say this is either perfect, or a much better match. This also makes sense and correlates to my suspicion that PS should be showing you things in your native monitor profile until you ask it to do otherwise with a custom soft-proofing scenario.
    So now that I think I've figured it out, I leave the Monitor RGB as the device to simulate, close the image, and re-open the image just to be sure, and this is what I get...
    Essentially back to the same problem. I verified that View > Proof Colors is still set to my Monitor RGB, but it's as if it's not really being applied. SO, I changed it so something else, and then changed it back, and then it looks correct... as if I somehow need to kick it and remind it to do what it's already set to do.
    So, the short answer is THANK YOU for reminding me to look at the proofing setup, becasue no I at least have a kind of workaround and know where to look. The tricker part is to understand why the default doesn't really stick to the Monitor RGB (if that is even the correct place for it to stay set to), and how or why did i get off into Working CMYK in the first place, as that's not a setting I've ever used on purpose.
    Thanks again,
    Eric

  • Aperture Hot folder not importing after first picture?

    I'm shooting a Leica X1 with aa Eye-Fi Pro card- I've set up everything correctly including the latest aperture Hot Folder. It worked fine a few times.
    Now it's not importaing anything after the first JPG (and I'm shooting JPG+DNG Pairs). Someone else in the community had the EXACT same problem but just said they "solved" it without explanation.
    Eye-Fi imports it into the folder, but the Hot Folder script doesn't automatically move it into Aperture. I've tried quitting and restarting both apps, and even reinstalling the hot folder app.
    First, you've got to be kidding me that we are using such a rinky-**** script. If I paid $99 for a **** card that's only feature over the lesser model is that it works with RAW, why do they not integrate into Aperture natively? Why do they think that only iPhoto integration is enough? Who is using iPhoto with RAW files (I'm sure there are some but come on the majority will be using Aperture). Plus this script doesn't save information as basic as which folder is the hot folder or which Aperture project I want it going into. So every time I start up my computer I have to go through thr 5 or 6 step process of re-linking. COME ON.
    Second, how do I fix the fact that it's NOT working? Right now I've got several pics in the hot folder and it's not importing them. Thanks.

    It would appear that the majority of this post (the complaining parts) should be directed to the Eye-Fi people. None of this has anything to do with Aperture. Why they have never actually  intergrated with Aperture is something you have to ask them.
    As for the hot folder script, that script has been around since at least 2006 without change. It is possible that it might have problems wiht Lion as there have been some changes regarding scripting with Lion. The script, while a nice bit of AppleScripting was never  a comercial product. It does what it does. Again your complaint about the workings of the script should be directed at the Eye-Fi folk as they recommend using it to use their card with Aperture.
    One thing you can check is to make sure the script is attached to the folder you are importing the images into.

  • Images in Photoshop and Lightroom not matching on external display

    On my external display the same image viewed in Photoshop and Lightroom is diplayed differently.
    My set up:
    Macbook pro running Mountain Lion (10.8.4), DVI connected NEC Spectraview 271. Photoshop CS4 and Lightroom 5. Both displays calibrated using Spectraview 5 software and an Eye one pro puck. Photoshop working space is Prophoto RGB and is set to preserve embedded profiles. I'm using Andrew Rodney's and Bill Atkinson's test images to try and figure this out.
    Behaviour:
    With the same image displayed in Lightroom and Photoshop on the Macbook screen they match perfectly. If I drag the Lightroom window across to the NEC it changes (as you would expect - richer colours & higher contrast). If I drag the Photoshop image across to the NEC it also changes but no longer matches the Lightroom image (cooler colours).
    So, I don't really know whether Photoshop or Lightroom is displaying correctly, and whether they or the OS are to blame. I had assumed it was Lightroom as the image is more pleasing but this obviously isn't necessarily the case. What is clear is that somewhere there is a difference between how Lightroom and Photoshop are converting the image numbers for monitor display on the NEC.
    Does anyone know how to find out what display profile Lightroom and Photoshop are using?
    Is it possible they are both using the same profile but one is not using the NEC hardware calibration? (Seems unlikely as I assume it would be impossible for the NEC to be using different internal look up tables at the same time)
    Could the OS be tripping up one and not the other in some way?
    Could the X-rite software (which I don't use but is installed) somehow be interfering?
    Anybody able to shed some light?
    Thanks for any help,
    Tom

    I'm having trouble with Lightroom 5 soft proofing with reds too.  To rid my propossed print of a gamut warning I must totally desaturate or change my paper profile to glossy (or both).  This is odd because my monitor is calibrated, I'm using the correct paper profiles etc and when I ignore the gamut warning my prints are looking good. This isn't helpful to you but at least your not alone....

Maybe you are looking for
