How do I adjust Native Luminance without the calibration?

My G4 has a strange issue where it's "Native Luminance" is VERY high and I cannot adjust it in the Monitor Calibration area. What this is causing is washed out lite colors. For example, when theh finder window is opened in columns mode - I cannot see the subtle drap shadows in between the columns.
It's not the video card, because I took it out and tested it on another machine and it looked fine. It's not my monitor either - it's adjustments are perfect and other monitors that I've hooked up to the same computer did the same thing.
Somewhere, something is set wrong. Any help would be really appreciated.

Go into System Preferences/Universal Access and check the Contrast setting. It should be on Normal, which is all the way to the left.

    how can i use my account without the billing info, as i do not have a credit card. and my shipping and billing info is under US. i'm in singapore. how do i change this?

    If you are just visiting Singapore, then leave the account as it is. If you have moved there, then view your account using the iTunes app on a Mac or PC and change the country/region to your current location and address. If you do not have a bank card, you can fund your account using iTunes gift cards if available in Singapore.

  • How can I use Office Update without the Office CD?

    How can I use Office Update without the Office CD? On the microsoft website I've clicked the options which mean I shouldn't need the CD (which wasn't supplied with the laptop), but poartway through updating the service pack I get a request for the Office 2000 Professional CD.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi
    Did you mean a Office or One Note?
    As far as I know the One Note is a part of the Recovering Image and the CD is not delivered with the unit. Furthermore the Toshiba units are not delivered with the Office 2000 software.
    Nevertheless, did you check the update function in the Help i.e. in Word?
    There you will find a options called Check for Updates

  • How can I attach an image without the image is in the email body? (using the new mail the Lion)

    How can I attach an image without the image is in the email body? (using the new mail the Lion)
    I want in attachment, not in the body mail.

    I think your only solution is to zip the image files first and then attach them.
    Read this from a site I found:
    Sending Graphical Attachments -- When you attach a graphical image to your message, the recipient of your message sees the image inline (that is, in the body of the message) if her email client supports inline display. ("Take Control of Email with Apple Mail" contains a table listing the capabilities of popular Mac and PC email clients.) If a client does not support inline display (or the recipient has turned off the inline display option), the file appears as an attachment that must be opened in a separate program.
    On the one hand, an inline image is easier for the recipient to see - all she has to do is look at it. On the other hand, inline images can be frustrating to scroll through. If you do not wish to send a graphical image inline, you must compress the file before attaching it - Mail, sadly, lacks a built-in compression option, though fortunately for Panther users, the Finder offers Zip compression without requiring a separate application.
    Note that when you compose a new message, Mail always shows attachments in the body of your message. You can manually drag them somewhere else, but many email clients display all attachments in a separate list, regardless of where you place them in the message body.
    If you paste an image into a message or drag & drop an image from another window (say, a Web browser), Mail converts the raw image data to an attachment in TIFF format. On the other hand, if you drag & drop the icon of an image file (or use the Attach button to locate the file using the file browser), Mail leaves the attached image in its original format. This difference is significant, because although most email clients can display JPEG images just fine, support for TIFF - especially in non-Mac email clients - is less common. If possible, I suggest attaching image files as opposed to pasting or dragging in raw image data.

  • Mac OS no longer available after trying to remove Windows on Bootcamp. How can I restore Mac OS without the Mac HDD in options?

    Mac OS no longer available after trying to remove Windows on Bootcamp. How can I restore Mac OS without the Mac HDD in options?
    So what I did was, I had bought my iMac from a shop and asked them to do bootcamp for me. However, they installed 32 bit instead of 64. My fault, I did not make my self clear about it. So after it has been delivered to my house, I realized that I wanted the 64 bit. I tried to remove windows on bootcamp but honestly, I have not experienced this before. So I failed. I believe, I did something wrong.
    So I opened the iMac and it keeps asking me to go to windows. Windows OS also corrupted.
    I tried the Option Key but the only option is Windows 7 only. So using a different keyboard, I press option and it only shows Windows HDD and the Mac HDD has gone.
    What am I going to do? How can I restore Mac OS without the HDD anymore?

    How can I create multiple accounts without the necessity to create multiple email addresses?  I now have 2 i-phones (mine and my wife's), 1 i-pad (mine), 1 i-pad mini (10 year old's), and 1 I-pod touch (11 year old's).  I would like to maintain purchase control, but would like to be able to have a separate account ID for each person.  Is that possible?

    Each email address can only be on one iTunes account, and all purchases are tied to the account that buys them. If you want to have separate iTunes accounts on each then you will need separate email accounts for each iTunes account

    how can I activate my iphone4 without the owner's ID it was just given to me by a friend AND WE CAN'T CONTACT THE OWNER ANYMORE

    There is no other way. Without the correct credentials you won't be able to use it.
    Activation Lock cannot be bypassed, Apple will not help unless you have the original receipt (but not from some 3rd party)

    Sorry, you can't. If your phone is carrier locked, you will need a sim card from that carrier, to activate it.

  • How can I get a date without the hour from sql server 2000 ?

    hellou!
    I have a JTable, and one of it's columns has to show a date. This date i have to show is specified as datetime on the Sql Server 2000 database where I have to take the data.
    the query of the dataset attached to the JTable is something like "select * from Table".
    The problem is that the JTable column that displays the date shows the date and the hour, for example:
    7/10/04 0:00:00
    and I need to show the date without the hour, only the 7/10/04. Can anyone tell me how to do that?
    thank you very much! : )

    The easiest way to format a date is with java.text.SimpleDateFormat. When creating it you pass a format string which can be used to parse or format date objects.
    SimpleDateFormat formater = new SimpleDateFormat( "MM/dd/yyyy" );
    // Get date objects directly from sql
    Date foundDate = result.getDate( 1 );  //where result is the ResultSet and 1 is the date column
    String formatedDate = formater.format( foundDate );Now the JTable's table model can be adjusted to store a formated String instead of a Date. If for some reason it is required to store the value as a Date overload the table model to return the formated string when getValueAt is called.

  • How to replace a native file without deleting it?

    I was wondering if anyone can let me know to replace a native file without deleting it.
    Thanks

    Thanks for replying. Ok checking in a new revision is not an option. This document belongs to a plant. They have two revisions. One revision is released and other in Genwww. We have identified the issue which has a problem which has links that do not work. So people at plant do not want to check in a new revision as it goes through a 3 step workflow and it involves approvals etc. So best option here is to replace a native file and have the same approvers as what were there for revision 1. Would batch import work? If it does, how would it?
    Thanks

  • How can i print an email without the attached pictures printing as well?

    I am trying to print an email that has pictures attached. I do not need the pictures to be printed.
    The pictures are showing in the body of the email.
    When I try to print it scales down the text to make two of the pictures fit on the first page.
    How do I change this so I can print the text separately?

    If the sender embedded the image instead of attaching it then you could try selecting only the text before printing That should print without the images. Thunderbird will only prints what is selected unless there is nothing selected. Then it prints all. You can test this with Print Preview.
    If the image is truly an attachment, then go to the menu bar and select View and uncheck Display Attachments Inline.
    No menu bar? Press the alt key.

  • How do I start my MacBook without the Battery Installed

    My battery has started to Bulge and I am having the usual problems I have read about with this issue, the trackpad isn't working, premature shutdown, etc. I am living thousands of miles away from an Apple Store so I have given the battery to a friend to either get replaced or buy a new one. In the mean time I want to use the MBP without the battery. How do you start the MBP without the battery being installed?
    I know there will be a reduction in performance but I am not worried about that at the moment as I need some of the info of my hard disk. It can't run any slower than it is at the moment, it's dead.

    Kappy Thanks I have started it again. I actually found this thread and tried it yesterday before my question but nothing worked. I left the computer uplugged over night and thought I had nothing to lose so I tried it agian this morning and it actually worked this time. I only had to use the Restart (Control-Command-Power) option not the SMC reset. Leaving the power disconnected must have cleared something somewhere.
    Thanks again.
