How do change the display settings such as color temperature and backlight brightness on an iMac monitor?

My wife has an iMac (I don't know any other way to identify it e.g. model number), and she has this 3rd party calibration software that I'm trying to use. I am not used to a Mac, and I cannot find the display settings for the monitor. There are no buttons on the monitor, and when I go to preferences, I can only find the brightness control. I've googled this and cannot find a clear, simple answer. I have used every version of Windows (currently on 8.1 on my PC) and it's easy for me on that platform. I suppose it's just that I don't really know how to navigate Mac OS.

ItsameMatt03,
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Displays, then click Color.
Click Calibrate.Display Calibrator Assistant walks you through calibrating your display, then creates a calibrated color profile.For a more detailed calibration of your display, select the Expert Mode checkbox, which is at the bottom of the introductory text in the assistant.When the display profile is ready, it’s automatically assigned as your display’s color profile.

    There has been a change in the Java security settings, see:

  • How to change the Display Pattern for Decimal Fields dynamically

    hi all,
    Can any one help me how to change the display pattern for decimal fields dynamically???
    Currently I am using z,zzz,zzz,zz9.999 Display pattern for Quantity Field. If the value is blank it is displaying as 0.000 on the Screen. But I don't want this to be printed.
    Please help me how to solve this ASAP.
    Thanks,
    Prabhu

    Hi,
    Alternatively you can handle it in the context.
    In the context area, click on the quantity. In the bottom, click on the conditions tab, and put a condition
    <quan field> NE initial.
    So the field will not be printed if there is no value.

  • How to change the firewall settings to provide remorte access to oracle 10g

    dear all
    I have created the oracle 10g database and it is working properly...but I cant loging with thedata base remotely when the host's firewall is on..when it is off I can connect with the database remotely..how can I change the firewall settings in this case

    You need to configure your firewall to allow traffic on the ports listed in ORACLE_HOME\install\portlist.ini.
    You do not need to allow all of the ports, just the ports you want to allow traffic. For example if you are not using iSQL Plus you do not have to open port 5560 or the range 5560–5579.
    You can find a description of the ports at the following link.

  • How to change the equalizer settings in iPod Shuffle 4th generation?

    Hi, i own iPod shuffle 2nd and 4th generation. I used to use Sony and sennheiser earphones to listen to them. The problem is I cant get the maximum performance of the earphones on my iPod, unlike in laptop. It is because I can't adjust the Mid, Bass, and treble level in Shuffle. Does anyone knows how to change its equalizer settings?

    You can't there are no equalizer settings on the Shuffle. Incidentally, if you are just wanting to boost the bass that is not getting the most performance from your headphones that is just making the bass abnormally loud.

  • How to change the screen settings in my laptop

    Hello. I have a Satellite Toshiba laptop and as my daughter started pressing some buttons she changed the settings on the screen. When I go to my email or to some web pages the page and the letters look bigger and maybe of a different style, although my screen zoom level remains at 100% and then they are too small if I put the zoom at 75%. I tried to change the screen settings through the control panel but couldn't find something useful and then when I tried to restore the system to an older restore point so I can go back to my old settings it wasn't able to do it, even though I' ve tried different restore points (lovely windows!). Anyone has any ideas of what else I can do?
    Thank you in advance!

    Probably one of these, Sandra.

  • How to change the display light intensity on Satellite A?

    I can't seem to find a way of varying the light intensity of the screen. I know this is sacrilegious, but its seemed a whole lot easier to read word doc's and pdf's from the old TFT screens. No functions that I can find in the display settings.
    Am I missing something obvious?

    Hi,
    The light intensity can normally be varied using the Fn+6 and Fn+7 keys to reduce and increase the display brightness respectively.

  • Why does the port settings on my iPad change every time I sync with my computer. After syncing I have to go in and change the port settings so I can send and receive emails on my iPad.

    Every time iSync my iPad 2 with my computer it changes the port settings. Has anyone else had this issue?

    When you sync the iPad, do you have mail settings configured to sync to the iPad? You could have different settings on your computer that might be affecting the email set up on the iPad when you sync.

  • How to change the displayed name of a DefaultMutableTreeNode

    Hi there...
    I created a class A extending DefaultMutableTreeNode and A's constructor is as follows:
    public A(UserObject object) {
    setUserObject(object);
    so my problem is if I wanna add such an instance of A, in a tree (as a node) the displayed name is very strange, something like:
    A@72834 or stuff...
    How can I change the name afterwards??
    are there any commands to do so?
    I have created object of class which contain some data. when I setUserObject to node then tree display's like A@72834 or stuff.

  • How to Change the display format of Parameter form in HTML

    I have created a parameter form to allow user to choose the parameter values before printing the report. The parameter which will display in the web-browser has its own predefined format. How am i going to change this format? eg. changing the Background color, table background color, put in some pictures, set the alignment of the text and fields....
    Now I am able to change the header and footer. I can put in the company logo in the header by changing the report escape - Before form value and the footer in the report escape - after form value. How about the body which all the boilet text and fields will be display here? I need to change the alignment, the table background color and the text style and format also... where should i change this?
    Thanks

    Reports only provides limited formatting for the parameter form. In your case, you seem to need to take over greater control of the parameter form and you're halfway there.
    You've noted that you can control the header & footer values, what you need to do is extend those escapes to render the complete parameter form and remove everything from the actual reports parameter form. ie: Remove the labels/parameter form fields and render these directly in the HTML in the before parameter HTML escape. This allows you to insert any HTML you want - you probably want to start with the Reports generated HTML and move it into Frontpage to edit to your required format.
    What you are doing in this case is still using Reports url/submit mechanism and parameter form validation but bypassing Reports rendering of the parameter form.
