Help with coating coming off Apple Studio Monitor (17")

This morning the coating has just started to rub off a CRT screen monitor, making it unusable - the monitor is working fine otherwise, and we don't want to throw it away! Can anyone suggest anything to now clean all the coating off with?
G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Try a product called "GOO GONE". It works on all sorts of sticky substances. It's citrus based and works wonderfully.
Just apply it to a small limited area first, as with anything new, to test its safety. But I've used it on a variety of plastics and NEVER had it cause any damage.

17" CRT Apple Studio Monitor

Unfortunately, I bought a Mini without knowing that my current monitor is unsupported. Are there any work arounds? Has anybody successfully used a 17" CRT Apple Studio monitor with the mini.
Thanks in Advance

You may buy a "DVI to ADC Adapter" from apple.
Yesterday I've bought a Mac mini and I already owned a 17" Studio Display in conjunction with the DVI to ADC, but the "sleep button" on the display is not working.That's why I'm searching this forum.

Quad with 2 old Apple Studio monitors 17'' ADC?

Hello,
I'm almost ready to buy a PowerMac Quad, but I've one problem to solve:
I already have 2 old Apple Studio Display 17'' with ADC connection.
The default video card in the Quad has 2 DVI ports, so I should use 2 Apple DVI to ADC adapters to run my old monitors (I already have one and I can say these adapters are huge, big and reqire power supply).
Is it possible to run the above configuration (2 adapters) without problems or damages?
Thank you

Hi, the problem is a combination of Boot Camp 2.1 and the ADC->DVI box. I've described a solution here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7211956&#7211956
Basically:
[1] Plug everything in normally
[2] Boot into Mac OS X
[3] Set brightness to what you want (eg. in System Prefs, or via keyboard)
[4] Unplug the USB cable belonging to the ADC->DVI adaptor (this means anything plugged into the monitor now won't work, so you may need to also move peripherals from the monitor to the mac, or to a USB hub)
[5] Boot into Windows (XP SP2 or SP3 in my case)
[6] cue "I can see clearly now the rain has gone"
The disadvantages to this are:
[1] You're a USB socket down on the deal (the display gave you 2 but took up 1, now you only have the 1 that it was being plugged into)
[2] To readjust brightness (if you find yourself doing this regularly... I don't) you need to go Mac OS X-> plug cable back in -> adjust brightness -> remove cable -> reboot into XP.
For me (2007 Mac Pro, 23" stripey Apple Cinema Display with ADC->DVI adaptor) it was happening under an ATI 1900XT and also under an Nvidia 8800GT, each time I'd tried reformatting the Windows partition, reinstalling Windows XP etc. Whenever it was Boot Camp 2.0.x it was fine, but adding Boot Camp 2.1 to the party wrecked the brightness. XP SP3 made no difference whatsoever.
Of note, if you'd rather not sacrifice the USB port (it didn't bother me, as 2.1 also made my 802.11n network finally usable under XP, which was more important to me than losing a USB socket), the original poster in the above linked article suggested reinstalling the Boot Camp 2.0 drivers (from the Leopard disc) as an alternative fix (seemingly they'll overwrite anything Boot Camp 2.1 installed, thus "rewinding"). As I say, for me I needed the wireless network so didn't want to go back, but it might work for you as a 2nd route.
I've filed a bug on this, so let's hope the Boot Camp team knock out a fix soon,
Ken

Apple Studio Monitor connection to PC

Aagh! This is driving me nuts.
A 19" Apple Studio Display - will this connect to a PC.
Monitor and connections can be viewed here:
http://www.hdc.uk.com/images/apple.jpg
Different posts are saying:
- I need a ADC-DVI adapter
- or a different graphics card
- or it may work but excess contrast???
- or it just won't work.
Any help please?

The symptoms you are experiencing is due to wireless interference. You can always try restoring those other devices, but you might be stuck in a loop. Consider working on your home router, like changing the radio channel to avoid interference. There are many things to lookout for, such as radio interference, physical interference, and router distance.

Help with colour profiles and wide gamut monitor

Hi there,
I know this issue must crop up a lot due to its confusing nature but I would really appreciate it if someone could explain what settings I should be using in Photoshop to get accurate colours. I had a look around and couldn't find any other discussions that answered this exactly.
My set up is a Dell 2408WFP monitor which is wide-gamut. I have calibrated this using a huey Pro calibrator (therefore have an accurate system colour profile). My photos are in Canon sRGB space, set by Digital Photo Professional (obviously easily changed if need be).
What I would like is to be able to preview what my photos will look like on a standard sRGB display. When I open a photo in Photoshop with all the settings on their default it looks extremely washed out, very low contrast and saturation. This is nothing like what the photos look like outside of Photoshop, and also not what the photos look like on other (normal gamut) displays. I have tried using the "proof colours" settings. When I have "proof setup" set to Internet Standard sRGB the colours look dreadful, oranges become blood-red, definitely not what I am getting when I view the image on a standard monitor. If I have it set to Monitor RGB then I get colours that look like my monitor outside of Photoshop -- this is the closest out of the three to the result I am actually getting on standard gamut displays. However I know it is not accurate because I know my monitor is wide gamut and therefore more has more contrast (and this is the case).
So what combination of photo colour space, proof colour space, and proof colours settings should I be using? My main priority is just the Joe Average using his TN panel monitor on facebook, I accept that on my monitor they will look slightly different. Settings for print don't concern me at the moment.
Thanks for the help. To anyone who will suggest that I read up on colour profiles... I have, and I understand them to an extent, but there are so many variables here that I am getting lost (monitor profile, photo profile, photoshop settings, DPP settings, faststone viewer's settings, browser's lack of awareness...)

You have no idea.
What I'm reading is that you want Photoshop, with its color management enabled, to display your sRGB photos as they would be seen on a true sRGB monitor - i.e., accurately.
Something to always keep in mind, when everything's set right and working properly: Your sRGB image displayed on your wide gamut monitor without color management (e.g., by Internet Explorer) will look bolder and brighter (more color-saturated) than the same image displayed in Photoshop with color-management. There is no getting around this, because the sRGB profile is not equivalent to the monitor profile. Do not expect them to look the same.
It's hard, without being there and seeing what you're seeing, to judge whether your sRGB images are undersaturated compared to what's seen on other monitors. I do know, as one with sRGB monitors myself, that images can look quite vibrant and alive in the sRGB color space.
What we can't know is whether your judgment that your color-managed sRGB images are undersaturated is correct in an absolute sense, or whether you're just feeling the difference between seeing them on your monitor in non-color-managed apps and Photoshop.
Photoshop normally does its color management like this: It combines the information from the color profile in your document with the color profile of the monitor, which it retrieves from a standard place in Windows, and creates a transform used to display the colors.
To have it do this you would NOT want the Proof Colors setting enabled. It is the default behavior.
-Noel
P.S., I don't recall whether DPP is color-managed, but you might consider using Photoshop's raw converter, which definitely shows color-managed output, per the settings I described above.
P.P.S., Your calibrator/profiler should have put the monitor profile in the proper place and set all the proper stuff up in Windows. Is it specifically listed as compatible with the version of Windows you're running?

Connect an Apple Studio monitor to mbp?

do i need the bulky and expensive adc adaptor to connect my "older" Apple Studio display to my new MBP?

Sadly yes (I'm in the same position) it needs the power brick/adapter thing ($99) to work with the MBP

Help with Elements 12 and Print Studio

i have Elements 12 and cant get print studio supplied with my canon pixma pro 100 to install
can any one help ??

You messaged me (but please reply to the forum as it will help others with the same problem):
"print studio just keeps saying its not compatible with elements 12 or vice versa??".
Go to Canon's web site and download the latest verson and see if that works. It installed for me OK (not that it worked, as I don't have a compatible printer).
Cheers,
Neale

I need help with re installing my apple account for itunes.

Had problems with my itune account, so I uninstalled and now need help with re-installing the program with the songs I have already purchased.

Your iTunes account is something at the iTunes Store online. It is not possible to uninstall it. Do you mean the iTunes application? Even if you delete the application and restore it, it should not have deleted your iTunes library (essentially the contents of the iTunes folder in Music) on your computer unless you did a separate steep and specifically deleted that too. You need to tell us what it was you deleted.

Apple Studio Monitor ON/OFF & brightness buttons won't work!

Any filters to help with horizontal line jitters on ntsc monitor

Hey Guys,
I am working on a project that has alot of office forms that appear on screen. The horizontal lines of the forms wiggle like crazy on the ntsc monitor. Is there any filters that can stop the jitters?
I am using FCP studio
Thanks

Hi:
You can try with the standard Flicker Filter and adding a very small Blur. You must find the exact recipe for your footage.
Hope that helps !

Need help with multiple devices and apple id

Between my husband and myself, we have two Iphones, two Ipads, and one Imac. I back all of them up on my Imac using ONE iTunes account....we prefer not use Icloud, and I think that helps keep the information on each device relatively separate from each other...no overlaps with contacts and calendars. We have one APPLE id and password, that we use for Itunes and the App Store. We just got the Iphone 6 for my husband, and it keeps asking him to enter his Icloud PW.(his recognized user name is his PRIMARY email address)...which presumably he does not have, nor does he need (or maybe he does I need some real guidance on that). To keep this from making him crazy can I just delete his Icloud account, which again presumably, was created automatically with the new Iphone 6 set up??
Similarly, I need to use FIND my Phone (etc), and HIS devices are not in MY listed devices....is this because he NEEDS his own APPLE ID, or is there a way to add his devices to my list of devices within the APP....I thought because we share the Itunes account they should all be in MY devices.
Can someone help me make sense of this?
THANKS!!

Hello melissaben6250,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are not seeing your husbands new iPhone 6 in your Find My iPhone app. First, while you may "prefer not use iCloud", you are using it, at least in regards to Find My iPhone for your existing devices.
Now, for your husband's phone and Find My iPhone. It sounds like during the setup of his phone, he logged in to his Apple ID and even possibly created another iCloud account. In order to see his phone on your existing Find My iPhone, it will have to log in to the iCloud account where the other devices are signed in. Take a look at this article on troubleshooting Find My iPhone, especially the first section on the device not appearing.

Help with more than one apple id on same computer

When my husband tries to do anything in his itunes library he gets the following error message,
"This computer is already associated with an apple id You can download past purchases on this computer with just one apple id every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple id in 11 days"
I HAS been approx 3 months (90 days) since we purchased a new computer-but we have always had different itunes libraries. HELP!!

Only one account can be signed in at a time (via Settings > Store), and if you turn on automatic downloads and/or download past purchases from an account then you risk tying the iPad to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

Help with simultaneous on off sound buttons

hi, I'm an intermediate flash user and I've made a file for
my kids in class that has some sound on-off buttons. they are set
to play once or loop depending on length by simple mouse click.
they will play simultaneously if more than one is clicked
individually on the page. I'm trying to make the page so the kids
can just select the sound button icon, drag as many of them as they
want (usually 2 -4 sounds at a time) into a box at the bottom of
the page where they will then just play and loop. if they are
dragged out of the box, that sound will stop. if another is dragged
into the box it's sound will then join the ones that are already
looping. can someone please help point me to the action script I
need to write for this to occur? thanks. please email me at school:
[email protected] if you can.

yes, using the linkageID will allow you to start the sound
associated with each icon.
so, if you have an icon with instance name drumsIconMC and
you have a sound in your library that you've assigned a linkage id
of drumsID, you can use:
drumsIconMC.soundID = "drumsID";
drumsIconMC.onPress=function(){
this.startDrag();
drumsIconMC.onRelease=function(){
this.stopDrag();
if(eval(this._droptarget) == boxMC){ // assuming your drop
target box is named boxMC
if(this.s == undefined){
this.s = new Sound();
this.s.attachSound(this.soundID);
this.s.start(0,999); // <- asssuming you want to loop your
sound 999 times
} else{
if(this.s != undefined){
this.s.stop();

Need help with URLs (Mamp/Dreamweaver/Apple Lion)

I'm in the midst of a major upgrade - Apple Leopard > Lion and MAMP 1.x to 2.0.5. I also installed CS3, with Dreamweaver, on my new laptop.
Anyway, everything seems to be falling in place, except for one major snag - I can't view my web pages in a browser.
On my old laptop, I have it set up so that I can view each of my websites at a simple URL, like this: http://SL. My sites are stored in a top level folder named Sites.
I used the settings in my old computer as a guide in setting up a site in Dreamweaver and MAMP/Hosts on my new laptop, but I can't view a page at http://SL. http://localhost/SL and http://localhost don't work, either, whereas http://localhost:8888 prompts a "Forbidden" message.
However, I can access phpMyAdmin at http://localhost:8888/phpMyAdmin/?lang=en-iso-8859-1&language=English
When I was setting up the site in Dreamweaver, I got the following error message:
"Dreamweaver cannot use the prefix you entered to displaly live data. Please double-check your site configuration or click on Help for more information on how to correct this problem. (HTTP Error: 0)." I didn't explore the Help menu immediately, and I can't recreate the error message now.
I read somewhere that I should put my html folders in the htdocs folder so I tried that with one site, with the same result.
Anyway, can anyone tell me what I have to do to make a website located at Users > (Me) > Sites > SL display at http://SL?
Thanks.

In MAMP Pro setup ports for Apache/MySQL to 80/3306 then setup virtual host in Hosts tab. MAMP doesn't allow extending virtual hosts, only MAMP Pro does that. Are you using MAMP or MAMP Pro?
best,
Shocker
