Help with 4k 13 inch monitor

So  I just got a spare laptop, which is this awesome ultrabook called the Lenova Yoga 2. It packs a 4k screen in a 13 inch space. Which is kind of incredible.. exept almost all of the adobe apps are useless because the menus etc don't scale up. Literally you cannot read a single thing. I think the only way you can see things is with a jewelers loupe.
The only suggestion ive seen so far is to use the "magnifier" app in windows 8... but it really is beyond bad. Is there any adobe solution or setting I can uses to make these things legible? literally all adobe programs are unusable

Just how much real world difference is there between 1k and 4k pixels on a 13 inch display?  You'd see it with things like text, but it would need to be a very sharp photograph before you could take advantage of such high pixel density.
Or do they supply the above notebook with a pair of these?

  • Need help with a Asus 27" monitor with webcam problem.

    Need help with a Asus 27" monitor I bought.  Model VK278Q.  The issue is that the webcam will not work properly.  Various applications can see the webcam, but I just get a black box.  From what I have read, the issue seems to be that there are no official drivers for the webcam. 
    I thought someone in this community might be able to offer some help before I return the monitor. I read somewhere that it may be possible to tweat the OS so that the iSight software will work for the monitor webcam.
    Thx

    Eureka! You now understand the situation.
    Even the old standard for Mac OS X drivers for non-compatible cams, macam, says that it has no driver for ASUS (20") monitor camera.
    The macam status shows:
    not working (no documentation)
    With no working driver for the 20" ASUS, it is not surprising that there is none for the 27" either.  There may be good reason that ASUS won't (or can't) offer either the technical documentation or a Mac driver for their monitor's inbuilt webcam.  However, they apparently do not publish that information. 
    If ASUS Technical Support cannot provide the driver you need for OS X, the ASUS will continue to be a ridonculous (sic) monitor whose webcam will not work with your OS X Mac.  The only other simple fix I can think of is to use the ASUS with a different PC that is compatible with this monitor and its inbuilt webcam.  What you do is certainly your choice.

  • New MacBook Pro Retina with NEC 27 inch monitor

    I've got a new MacBook Pro Retina and I'm trying to use it with my NEC 27 monitor. I connected the two via Apple DVI to Thunderbolt adaptor, but I can only get the monitor to operate at 1500 pixels with the MacBook Pro even though my monitor supports 2560x1440pixels. This is really frustrating since I purchase this lapto to use with my monitor. Any advice?  Thanks, Lucian

    When going to the 2560x1440 ( or 1600) resolution you will need the dual-link DVI adapter (along with a dual link DVI cable, of course).   The single link will work...but at lower resolutions. 

  • Need some help with a Business Process monitor PPO Collector

    We have one particular monitor that won't return any value, consistently gray.
    Monitoring scenario is Shopping Cart/PPO process - we have cases where Shopping carts fail to create purchase orders in our ECC system.
    We can see the errors, and have created a monitor with a threshold of '1" just to try to trigger the alert.
    Process being monitored is PURORD006, monitor object is boppocol
    Configuration is generated and activated, there are no errors in SLG1.  Monitor runs every 5 minutes.  There are no config errors showing anywhere, and there are no authorization errors for any users.
    There are a few red extractors, but they're all workload/e2e related, not BPMON.  Agents are green.
    Solman is 7.1 Sp12, newly upgraded, all Managed system config/techmon/bpm config clean and green .  This also did not work in our previous SP10 incarnation.
    Does not matter which ECC system we configure for this, they all act the same way, no metric.  Like there's something fundamentally incorrect with our setup or we aren't understanding how this particular monitor works.  We have other BPM monitors that work just fine, so it's not a complete config failure, just this one particular one.
    ECC system has st-pi  2008-1-700 10
    st-a/pi is 01R_700
    System is not allowing me to embed screenshots..  grr.....  attached screen shots.
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks.

    First of all, if you have IT resources inhouse (or even external) consider asking them.
    Also having a backup of the old db would be my recomandation, also check first if there
    is data inside which you might want to export as long as the old tms is up and running.
    There are a lot of different permissions settings which could grant you access to everything, but
    stop you from dropping / deleting the old db.
    You can drop a database in different ways, gui, command line,...
    This is more a Microsoft SQL than a TMS question.
    For more info I would recomend to check the Microsoft sites (and forums) or google.
    Like this article here: "Deleting a Database"

  • Help with Playback in Source Monitor

    when I import footage of a specific interview into PP, at 2;45 the audio suddenly jumps back to the begining of the clip while the video continues to playback as usual. The original file is fine, there is no problem playing it in any other program, and this only happens with this one clip, no others are affected. I've removed this clip and re-imported it, up-dated PP, and re-booted my computer all to no avail. Any suggestions? This is quite frustrating.... I've lost some of my previous work, and would just like to be able to have useable interview footage...
    Thanks for you help,
    Ben

    Here's a few details:
    Premier Pro CS6 with 6.0.1 update (updated again as soon as problem noticed)
    Using Windows 7
    Using G-spot the video codec is "avc1" and under the "Name" category it said "H.264"
    The Audio codec is  mp4a: MPEG-4 AAC LC
    the file type is MPEG saved as a ".MOV"
    Note that I'm using a lot of other footage shot from the same camera in the same codec in this project (and in several other projects) and have not encountered this issue. I've read all those posts and get the idea of what a codec is, but I'm no expert. Let me know if this information is sufficent or if there's more I can provide.
    No Error messages, just editing as usual, and I noticed the problem with the audio when I tried to use footage after a particular point
    Not running any other software at the time I first noticed the problem. Did go back and check the auto saved files and noticed that the footage was doing the same thing there as well.
    Haven't installed any third party effects or codec's
    As far as hardware is concerned I'm using a pretty basic PC setup. It's a laptop with an i7-3720QM 2.6GHz processor (quad core), 16 GB RAM, an NVIDIA GT 650M GPU with 2 GB VRAM
    I am using Mercury Playback Engine with GPU Acceleration
    The problem is that when doing anything with the video in PP at the same spot everytime the audio begins to play from the start (At 2:45 the audio begins to play from the start while the video continues to play as usual). this gives me audio that's 2:45 behind the clip. This occurs both in the source monitor and when I insert the clip into the time-line.
    Not sure what a screen shot would reveal, everything looks just fine. No red lines when I first import, everything plays back in real time, the audio is simply off. This problem doesn't occur when playing back with any other program (I've tried windows media player, and just for fun played it back with Adobe Bridge and there was no problem with playback in either program.) This problem occurs both in the project I first noticed the problem in and when I import the footage into a new project.
    Hopefully some of the info helps...
    Has this happened to anyone else?

  • Xorg - help with rotation on dual monitor setup

    i have two monitors that im trying to get rotated properly but im having some trouble. i think its easiest to list out what i have going on here...
    1. im using a BFG nvidia geforce 7600 with the nvidia driver, and everything on the system is up to date
    2. everything works fine when i just put the monitors in their normal 1280x1024 side by side
    3. when i put Option "Rotate" "CCW" in the device section (as seen in the config below), i get my left monitor rotated nicely and my right monitor is rotated as well but it is setup as if it is below my left monitor.
    4. when i take out the setting from #3 and use Option "RandRRotation" "true" im started into normal side-by-side like in #2, then using xrandr -o left will get me the same result as #3 with right monitor below left.
    5. <a href="http://briancurtin.com/linux/Xorg.0.log">here is my Xorg.0.log</a> and <a href="http://briancurtin.com/linux/xorg.conf">here is my xorg.conf</a>.
    ideally i'd like to use the setup in #3 but have the monitors be side-by-side in orientation, so that i can move the mouse off of the right edge of left monitor into the right monitor, rather than having to go to the bottom edge and having it magically appear on the right monitor. if thats confusing i can draw it up.
    is this possible? any help would be greatly appreciated

    im kind of thinking now that i cant do this
    the desktop is seen as just one big desktop stretched across two monitors...so when you rotate/xrandr it, its going to do the same and assume you stack your two monitors on top of each other.
    i think im right, but can anyone confirm that?

  • Help with Resolution on External Monitor

    I want to set my HP Envy 15t to drive an external monitor, not as an extension, but rather as my primary monitor.  My external monitor is a Viewsonic VX2250, a little older, and requires that I use a HDMI-to-VGA adapter.  (The Viewsonic also has DVI inputs...not sure it that would make a difference.)  On my current tower setup, I use the monitor in its recommended (or native mode) setting of 1920x1080.  I like this screen a lot.
    The adapter is a Bytecc HM-VGA005 and the specs seem to suggest that it can handle a variety of video resolutions - Full HD (1080p), WUXGA (1920x1200 RB mode), and UXGA (1600x1200 VESA mode).
    The 15t currently runs in the recommended resolution of 1366x768.  If I understand the specs right, in HD mode it's 1366x768 and in FHD mode it's 1920x1080.   The graphics card is an Intel HD Graphics 4600.  Is this the reason that I can only get HD resolution and not FHD resolution on the laptop?
    But whenever I plug all this together and try and change the laptop screen resolution settings, the external monitor only shows 1024x768...pretty lousy.  I have it so that the laptop screen is dark and only the external monitor is on.  But there doesn't seem to be any choices I can make to improve this resolution.  I've checked to see that the graphics driver is up to date and it is. 
    What do I do to get the best screen I can on the external monitor?  Would buying a new monitor with HDMI inputs achieve better results?  Do I need a different adapter?
    Thanks...Kurt
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Me again!  Well, it was a bit of the nut behind the wheel.    I checked in with the store that I've been buying my cables, adapters, etc.  He said to bring the Viewsonic monitor by to see what might be going on.  As I was setting up, he asked about power to the adapter.  I had the USB cable but didn't think it was needed.  But after putting everything together in addition to power to the HDMI-VGA adapter, I could see I was getting the resolution that I was hoping for.  Why it worked on the Dell monitor, no clue...maybe a better monitor or different VGA cable.  The Bytecc adpater didn't come with any instructions, so I just didn't know.
    All is well.  Hope this helps someone in the future.

  • Help with Fan Speed/Temperature Monitoring - 875P Neo Series 2.0

    Hi
    My mobo manual doesn't explain the monitoring facilities available on this board and I would like confirmation of the following:
    My P4 Northwood CPU Fan as supplied with P4 is connected to CFAN1 and provides monitoring of temperature and fan speed and also permits fan speed control.
    My Northbridge Fan as supplied with mobo is connected to NBFAN1 and provides monitoring and  control of fan speed.  No temperature monitoring available.
    My mobo provides monitoring of system temperature but doesn't say how this is measured and at what location.   
    There are two other 3-pin fan headers on the mobo; one is labelled SFAN1 with Gnd, +12V and the third pin NC and the other is labelled PFAN1 with Gnd, +12V and Sensor pins.
    My new Antec 500W SmartPower 2.0 PSU has a monitoring cable that is wired with a black Gnd wire and a blue Sensor wire and, according to the Antec manual, is supposed to provide fan speed monitoring if connected to PFAN1 - I have tried this and get no information showing in either SpeedFan or Sandra.   ??? 
    My new Case fan, an Antec SmartCool, also has a monitoring cable but only has the third pin wired, presumably a sensor wire, and presumably could also be attached to PFAN1 instead of the PSU signal connector to provide fan speed monitoring.   ???   Obviously I cannot connect both the PSU and Case Fan sensor cables to the mobo because the SFAN1 connection has no sensor pin connected; I presume this one is just a power supply to a fan as an alternative to using a supply line direct from the PSU.
    Can anyone advise me on the correct use of the PFAN1 and SFAN1 connectors and what they are capable of.

    - System temperature is measured at the Winbond W83627HF sensor chip located in front of your PCI slots.
    - PFAN1 does indeed monitor PSU fan speed if the PSU has a fan speed reporting header.  Not supported by some monitoring software (if Speedfan can't detect it, it doesn't support it.  At least not until Alfredo's next revision).
    - SFAN1 provides power only, no monitoring.
    - Try a different monitoring software and see if it can detect the sensor monitoring your PFAN1.  There are other monitoring software out there you can try, such as the CoreCenter that came with your motherboard, or Motherboard Monitor 5 or PCWizard (though you cannot adjust fan RPM through those programs).

  • Please help with strange monitor/Lightroom 4 interaction problem

    I bought a Dell Ultrasharp U3011 yesterday, and I'm now facing a very strange problem. It's sort of related to the common discussed issue of Lightroom's color management, but there is a twist here. I'll explain.
    The monitor I had been using (and still have) was a Samsung SyncMaster 244T. I had no problems at all with it.
    With the U3011, I've run into this problem:
    -When I view files in Lightroom 4, the colors are muted and contrast low. The same files seen in Xnview, ACDSee Pro (with the color management turned off), Digital Photo Professional (colorspace set to sRGB), are much more vivid. In Photoshop, if I use the default color setting, it looks muted like Lightroom (I'm guessing because Adobe products have default color profile set to ProPhoto RGB), but if I set the color profile to the monitor's profile, it becomes vivid and matches the other software I mentioned. If I use any other profile such as sRGB IEC81966-2.1, ProPhoto RGB, Adobe RGB, etc, it doesn't match the other software I mentioned. This is strange because the other ones match each other because they are set to sRGB, but in Photoshop, even if I set the color profile to sRGB, it still doesn't match.
    -In Lightroom 4, even if I use Soft Proofing, nothing changes. It's as if Soft Proofing is broken--it doesn't do anything, no matter what color profile I choose.
    -Now, here's the twist. I didn't have any of these problems when I use the 244T. This leads me to assume that the problem is how the U3011 is interacting with Lightroom. I did a quick comparison of opening up the same image on both monitors in ACDSee Pro, and they looked identical. (At this point, I had the U3011's preset set to sRGB. This is the only preset that makes the U3011 look identical to the 244T).
    Next, I did an experiment, and I was very surprised by what happened. This is what I did:
    With both monitors as a dual display setup, I turned on Before/After comparison in Lightroom (made sure both version had the same setting and look identical by copying the After's setting to Before). I then moved Lightroom's window so that one photo is seen on the U3011, and the other shows up on the 244T. And OMIGOD, they looked different! Why is this happening? I've already established that the same image looks identical on both monitors when viewed with ACDSee Pro, but in Lightroom, they looked different on each monitor.
    And then things got even more weird. When I dragged the Lightroom window fully to one monitor or the other, Lightroom actually started changing the colors right before my eyes as it responded to which monitor was displaying which photo! Lightroom was somehow interacting with the monitor in real-time. So if the Before looked muted on U3011 and the After looked vivid on the 244T, when I drag the whole window into 244T, the muted Before will stay muted for about a second or so, and then it'll suddenly change and become identical to After. And when I did the reverse (drag the window into U3011), the reverse also happened--the vivid After will stay vivid on U3011 for about a second or so, and then it would suddenly change and become muted. Lightroom was identifying each monitor's color profile setting and changing the images according to which monitor was doing the displaying, and when the images were split between the two monitors, Lightroom was slitting them into two different settings to match whichever monitor is displaying which side.
    So what the hell does that all mean, and what can I do to get Lightroom to display the photos so that they look the same as on all the other software I mentioned (so I don't have to play the guessing game of editing the images, export them out to other software to check how they turned out). Also, remember that I didn't have this problem with the 244T--Lightroom displayed the photos the same way as the other software I mentioned. The problem right now is that the U3011 is somehow causing Lightroom to display the photos differently, and no color profile presets in the OSD control can make them match.
    I need to solve this problem, or else my last resort would be to return the U3011 and try another brand/model and see if that helps.
    Any ideas?

    Yes, that's basically sensible advice you got there (but I was more succinct ).
    An important point that was mentioned over there is that you must not confuse document/source profile with monitor profile. They are both links in the color management chain, but they serve different purposes. The document profile defines the colors in a standard color space. The monitor profile describes the monitor's own native color space - its response to the RGB numbers it's fed. So one is translated into the other, by the application on the fly, through a normal profile conversion, and that way the colors appear on-screen as intended.
    If those two profiles/color spaces are roughly similar, as they would be in the case of an sRGB document displayed on a standard gamut display - then you can get by without color management. It won't look too far off. But a wide gamut monitor changes the rules, because its native color space is not similar to sRGB, it's much closer to Adobe RGB.
    Anyway, this is what color management is about. Any profile can be translated into any other. So in this context it doesn't really matter what color space the document is in - as long as you have a good monitor profile it will display correctly (within practical limitations). Lightroom is a sort of special case because its internal working color space is not one of the standard ones, instead it's a modified ProPhoto space with linear gamma. But the basic principle is exactly the same: source profile > monitor profile.
    Just to go a little more in-depth while I'm at it: When you calibrate a display you actually do two separate things. You first calibrate it to a more or less standardized response. But that's just a linear one-dimensional correction. It does nothing about how color is actually reproduced, how red is red for instance. The calibration is global and affects everything system-wide because it's read into the video card or monitor hardware.
    Then, once calibrated, a monitor profile is made. This is a full, complete and accurate description of the monitor's behavior, in three-dimensional color space. The precision level is much higher. This profile is used, by color managed applications like Lightroom and Photoshop, to display the image.
    Other applications that are not color managed will simply ignore this profile, and send the RGB numbers straight through to the display, unmodified. With a standard gamut monitor (and an sRGB document) the difference won't be too dramatic and you may not notice it unless you look closely. But a wide gamut monitor will make the difference jump out immediately.

  • Does  Mavericks have the problem fixed with working with the Dell UltraSharp U3014 30 inch monitor?

    Does  Mavericks have the problem fixed with working with the Dell UltraSharp U3014 30 inch monitor?

    I have this (or a similar) issue and I did notice something interesting. After I boot into Windows via Bootcamp (where I have the U3014 specfic driver installed) and then reboot into MacOS X (Mavericks) the monitor works flawlessly.
    I would hazard a guess that this means bootcamp is retaining the driver used in Windows. Kind of the reverse of the TB GBE adapter driver issue.
    To explain my issue for anyone else: the monitor flicks on and off as if the connection was poor. Connecting via HDMI. Connection is fine and as stated, everything works fine in Bootcamp.

  • Help with faulty monitor

    Hi all
    I have a 19" CRT monitor which I use with my G5. The monitor has developed a fault and I wonder if anyone might be able to help diagnose what the problem is.
    Whenever there is a large area of white on the screen the picture develops a high frequency wobble in a horizontal band accross the screen. This is accompanied by a squealing sound from the monitor itself.
    Does anyone know what might be the cause of this and is it likely to be repairable?
    Thanks in advance...
    Derek.

    Letter from LaCie technical support. It seemed to help me, the monitor is working fine, must have been loose connection.
    Thanks for contacting LaCie Technical Support. Try the following to see
    if they resolve your issues:
    --Try a different VGA cable to eliminate that as a cause (if this
    monitor's cable is not built-in).
    --Try the monitor on a different computer or a different monitor on the
    same computer to verify it is not a video card issue.
    The following two especially apply if the monitor has been moved, or
    there have been changes in the environment around the monitor.
    --The monitor can be affected by magnetic or electromagnetic energy.
    Make sure there are no magnets on or by the monitor (especially
    speakers). Keep the monitor and its cables away from motors,
    high-voltage areas, electrical cords, metal poles, etc.--anything that
    can produce or conduct electricity or magnetism.
    ----The monitor can be affected by dirty power. Put the monitor on a
    power conditioner on a dedicated circuit if at all possible. Appliances
    sharing the same circuit can cause trouble--blenders, microwaves,
    hairdryers, fans, even other monitors, etc. Also, try a different
    circuit in case the circuit you are using is wired incorrectly.
    Please include all previous messages if you reply. This information will
    be required by the email support team to further assist you. Thank you.
