How do I remove the DNG Profile Editor 2 from a Mac

It sits in my dock.  It can't be closed.  It can't be dragged to the trash from the dock or from the Finder.
My computer can't be restarted because this application is open.  I want to get rid of it but can't
figure out how to do it.  I run Mac OS X 10.5.6. Thanks

When you completely erase the former owner account information and install a new OS X
using your Apple ID to get the system download from Apple servers, (so you can use App
Store) any older sync'd items in the bluetooth list should be gone. They are not there by
default, so they would not be there after a new fully clean installation of OS X.
What vintage is this second-hand Mac computer product? Does it have an optical drive
and system DVDs or it it newer and relies on download upgrade via App Store?
If you have system discs, (10.6.3) you could install Snow Leopard then update it, to 10.6.8
then visit the App Store online from the updated Snow Leopard, to see about upgrade to
the latest OS X the computer can use. Then with your Apple ID account, set up the Mac to
with a new installation of the most recent OS X it can use.
There should be nothing old in a computer correctly set-up for resale by the original owner
or by a reseller who does business in an official capacity, using proper methods.
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

  • Converting LUTs to Camera Profiles in the DNG Profile Editor

    Hi,
    I've just started using the DNG Profile Editor, and can't seem to get the process right.
    I have some film LUTs that I'd like to convert to camera profiles for my 5D Mk II.
    Here's how I'm trying to do it, maybe someone can help me figure out what I'm doing wrong.
    This is what I tried first:
    1. Take a Color Chart into Photoshop, apply the LUT via Color Lookup adjustment layer.
    2. Save out as 16bit TIFF
    3. Open as Camera Raw, then save out as DNG
    4. Open the adjusted color chart into DNG Profile Editor, run it through the color chart section to create a recipe of color adjustments.
    5. Export out as Camera Profile
    But when I open up a 5D image in Lightroom, the profile doesn't show up in the list, so I realised maybe it needs to be saved specifically as a 5D profile, but I can't figure out how.
    If I:
    1. Do steps 1-4 as above
    2. Open a 5D DNG file so that I can set a 5D profile as the base profile
    3. Load the recipe
    The color adjustments appear on the color wheel, but nothing happens to the 5D image, no colour change at all.
    Exporting it (which does say 'Export as 5D profile') does then give me a profile that shows up in Lightroom, but it doesn't do anything to the image...
    What's the correct way of doing this?
    Thanks!

    I don’t know claim to know anything about the internals of DNG Camera Profiles, but I’m pretty sure you cannot take a RGB-file (TIF/JPG) DNG and make a raw-file DNG Profile for use with your camera raws, which sounds like what you’re trying to do.
    Despite looking like it might work in DNGPE, starting with an RGB-file recipe (rather than a RAW-file recipe) will only lock the specific colors on the color wheel, rather than create a raw-capable camera profile.

  • Colorchecker passport and the DNG profile editor

    I finally got around to getting a Colorchecker passport to use with the DNG profile editor.
    I was secretly hoping I could save time by shooting the chart on location and make an instant profile out of that - then the colors would be at least "close ballpark" so I would just have to apply white balance and then move on to more specific adjustments. But of course it wasn't that easy, it still takes a fair bit of color tweaking to get right in most circumstances.
    So I'm wondering if my energy would be better spent trying to perfect one good dual illuminant general profile. For this I would use 3000 K tungsten at one end and 5500 K studio flash at the other. Or would it be better to use overcast daylight? In either case it's obviously important to ensure the chart is absolutely evenly lit.
    And then I should probably have a separate profile for fluorescent tubes.
    I'm curious what other people's experiences with the colorchecker/DNG profile editor are? How are you using it?

    The color profile changes with the lighting, so a profile that was computed for daylight won’t be right for tungsten or fluorescent.  Keep in mind that a custom camera profile is the set of corrections on top of an existing Adobe profile that the DNG has assigned to it, perhaps Adobe Standard, and all Adobe profiles are dual-illuminant profiles, so it makes sense you’d want to also create a dual-illuminant profile for general purpose use that has the same two lighting scenarios as Adobe used:  2850K and 6500K.  The 6500K is the tricky one because full sun is warmer, closer to 5000K, and you need the right amount of haze to create 6500K sunlight, unless you are using standard D65 bulbs, indoors, which is likely what Adobe does.
    I use a dual-illuminant profile for general purpose use, but since the WB-Tint values of both the tungsten and daylight ends are close to zero, lighting that has a tint not close to zero needs a separate profile.  The common example is the greenish light from fluorescents, and I have several single-illuminant profiles for various artificial lighting scenarios with WB-Tint values that are relatively non-zero.  I also have ones for very red sunsets and very blue twilight.  If I had studio lighting I’d make a profile for that.  Sometimes I make a custom profile for a church or other venue that has significant non-neutral walls or ceilings, or where sunlight through the stained-glass windows shining on the walls are giving a significant color-cast including a non-zero tint value to the lighting.  If you know you’ll be doing some shots near a large amount of tall, green vegetation then a custom color profile can correct for the green tinge to the ambient lighting coming down from above mixing in with the sunlight. 
    Adding to the suggestion about wearing neutral clothing, I’d argue for dark neutral clothing because something lighter clothing will reflect environmental colors (sunlit vegetation or brick walls, etc, outdoors) and not be neutral. 
    Besides non-neutral clothing, try to avoid areas that have green grass or tree leaves or brick buildings that also color the light and reflect off the colorchecker.   For the sunlit shots, I put my colorchecker face up on the sidewalk or parking lot, to avoid coloration from the grass and far away from trees or buildings especially in the direction I’m pointing the camera, so the only lighting is direct sun and ambient blue-sky, possibly diffused by hazy clouds.  I point the camera down at the colorchecker, at a 45-degree angle and at a compass direction and not directly toward the sun, nor directly away from the sun.  I try to shoot the target that is face up on the ground perhaps at a 90-degree angle from the sun to minimize any residual glare from the colorchecker’s slightly non-matte surface.  Obviously directly away from the sun, the color-checker will have my shadow on it or I will be blocking the light from the sky near the sun.
    I use the same sort of process for the tungsten end, choosing a room with neutral walls and put the target relatively flat on the floor facing up, perhaps tipped up somewhat toward the light, but not so much as to have any glare from the lighting, either, in other words, not with the lighting directly behind the camera, but somewhat over to the side.

  • Creative use of CC calibraton in the DNG Profile Editor

    The DNG Profile Editor can be used to create profiles that mimic film looks.
    I think right now it is manual trial & error process involving changes in hue, saturation and lightness, but it could be theoretically achieved with Color Checker calibration working in reversed order.
    - Photograph the CC using your favorite film
    - If B&W, develop in your favorite developer
    - Scan the film
    - Use the scan in the DNG Profile Editor as target values
    The current DNG Profile Editor obviously does not allow that, it would require adding a new tab and clone the CC calibration feature and alter it to use the photographed values as target values as opposed to internal values.
    I don't know if it would be worth the effort, but I thing the idea is worth of sharing.
    By the way, unless I'm doing something wrong, the saturation slides don't seem to go 0%, so creation of B&W profiles is not possible.

    Good idea. Yes, I've posted an example on my Flickr.
    I chose a picture with good reds and yellows. There are four images in the set:
    1. The original, untouched image. This is using the new Adobe Standard beta profile, brought into Lightroom with all default settings, including linear tone curve, no exposure or color adjustments, white balance "as shot", etc. For reference.
    2. The image with my test profile applied, but no further adjustment.
    3. My original attempt at the image, using the "old fashioned" pre-DNG-profiles raw processing method, for reference. The yellows are orangeish, which isn't that objectionable but also isn't accurate. The reds are weaker than I would like.
    4. The "final" image, with my test profile plus additional tweaks -- white balance, tone curve for contrast, crushing out the blacks a bit more, etc. Two or three minutes of total processing, versus quite a bit more for the previous attempt with no "special" profile. The reds and yellows are perfect.
    The Flickr set:
    http://flickr.com/photos/100mph/sets/72157606547890574/
    This was just a first, pretty quick attempt at playing with the DNG Profile Editor. I'm sure it can be tweaked more and even more can be accomplished.
    [Edit: note: I changed the "upload date" on the test images so they wouldn't stay at the top of my Flickr page. Ignore the 2007 date, it doesn't mean anything.]

  • How do I remove the WiseConvert B Community toolbar from Firefox?

    How do I remove the WiseConvert B Community toolbar from Firefox? It has suddenly appeared and even though I open FireFox > View>Toolbars> deselect Wise Convert etc. it reappears when I reopen FireFox. Can't find anything in any of my files about it.

    If you select Add-ons from the Tool menu, do you see this "WiseConvert" thing as a plugin or extension? If so, you can just disable it from there...

  • How can I remove the repetitive multiple daily updates from Mozilla

    Hello
    How can I remove the repetitive multiple daily updates from Mozilla?
    Within a day, each day I get prompts as: Mozilla Firefox Update is ready to install at your computer.........then I do install and update it.......then after few minutes again it asks to update the same edition.........again after logging in back few hours later it prompts me again with the same request........IT IS VERY ANNOYING!
    Thank You,
    Gene

    ''the-edmeister [[#answer-683804|said]]''
    <blockquote>
    You could allow the update to proceed - that will stop Mozilla from asking if you want to update every time you launch Firefox, as is supposed to happen.
    Any particular reason that you don't want Firefox 35.0.1 to be installed?
    </blockquote>
    Hi The EDmeister,
    Thank you for your response.
    Nevertheless, I have to repeat that I have ALREADY INSTALLED the Firefox 35.0.1 in my computer and ALLOWED IT TO PROCEED.
    The same edition is prompting me back again, and again and again, within a day, each day. I get that annoying message at the top-right hand.
    I do not want to see it every time, multiple times a day, that is the issue here, unresolved!
    Best regards,
    Gene

  • How can I remove the photos without deleting them from the album?

    I am making a book in Aperture 3.  I want to change some of the pages that I have put together, and want to remove some of the photos from some of the pages, to put them on another page.  How can I remove the photos without deleting them from the album?

    As a follow-up, I have found that clicking on the photo in the book also highlights the photo on the strip below.  So, if you then hit delete, you will delete the photo from both the book page and the album (which is the book, the way I have it set up).  If you only want to delete it from the book page, you then have to un-click the photo on the strip below, or both will be deleted.  This seems unwieldy.  I deleted 6 photos from a page and found all of them gone from the album.  The only way that I can see to keep them in the album is to then unselect them from the bottom strip after selecting them fro the page.  This seems to call for an extra step.

  • How to remove the old verison of firefox from my mac os x? I have downloand the new verison of firefox, but i can not open it.

    When I go to open up the new version of firefox it tell me that Mac OS X can't be open. I have the 2 icon on my desktop. How do I remove the old one to open up the new Icon version of the firefox

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded

  • How do I remove the "distributed" and "response" file from my form?

    I created a form for my clients to fill out.  I want to be able to post the form on my website so the client can download the form, edit it, save it, print it if they like, and email it to me manually.  I do NOT want the form to have a submit button, nor do I wish to have the responses tracked.
    Currently I have a form that is set up like that.  How can I remove the criteria in the form that is responsible for emailing me as well as tracking the response file?  I want to the form to just be void of any link to my email as well as any response file on my end. 
    Would greatly appreciate if anyone can help...

    For some odd reason, Acrobat Standard does not allow you to edit document-level JavaScripts, so you have to use an alternative approach.
    The first thing to do is find the hidden button and make it visible. To do this, select the Select Object tool, which is a black arrow pointing to the upper-left. When the tool is active, you should see the previously hidden button on the first page:
    Double-click the button and go to the General tab and set the Form Field dropdown in the Common Properties area to Visible. Then go to the Actions tab and delete the "Run a JavaScript' action for the Mouse Up trigger. Then add a new JavaScript action for the Mouse Up trigger and enter the following two lines of code in the editor:
    getAnnot(0, "adhocFormState").destroy();
    addScript("FormsWorkflowScript", "//");
    Then close the dialog, select the Hand tool, and click the button. This will effectively get rid of the document-level JavaScript and the hidden text annotation. You can now delete the button by selecting it with the Select Object tool again, and hit the Delete key, or right-click > Delete
    That should do it.

  • How to automatically remove the wiki page's images from the Images library , when a wiki page is deleted

    I have noted the following strange behavior inside my Publishing enterprise wiki site collection. Now by default when I create a new wiki page and I add Pictures to it, the pictures will be saved under the “Images” library and will be inside a unique folder
    that have its name similar to the page name.
    But when users delete the picture from the wiki page or they delete the whole wiki page, then the related folder inside the “Images” library will not be removed. So can anyone advice if there is a way to automatically remove the page’s pictures
    folder from the Images library when the page is deleted? as currently i might end up having many pictures inside the Images library which are not linked to a wiki page, and they will waste my server desk space...

    I think, not sure, there's no out-of-the-box solution in SharePoint for this problem. So I can only think of custom solution:
    In event Receiver, ItemDeleting, you can delete images. The only downside is if some other pages are referring the images..... you need to check somehow which is quite time-consuming operations if you have thousand of pages in wiki library
    A timer job, that will run periodically, every day or week, and clean all unused images. 
    Hide the default delete button and add your own. And then using your own custom layout page, show a 'configuration dialog' to user if they want to delete both page and images.
    Thanks,

  • How do I remove the "show top sites" button from the favorites bar?

    I just updated to Yosemite, and so I have Safari 8.0... which has the "Show Top Sites" button at the extreme left of the favorites bar. Given I loathe that feature, I tried to remove it but unlike everything else in the favorites bar, it won't go away or move.
    I hate "Show Top Sites" as it feels like my browser is spying on me. I know it's just taking from what's already in my History but all the same, I don't see why I should have to put up with it given it's my browser and I should get a say in its behavior. New windows open to a blank page but I would at least like the button in the favorites bar removed, but ideally, the entire feature disabled.
    I can disable tabs. Why not top sites?.

    Unfortunately, there is no way to disable or remove the Top Sites icon from the Bookmarks bar.

  • How do I remove the 2 dashed lines (dashes) from above my html signature (from file) appearing in new mail I write?

    I have saved an HTML signature to file (as per Mozilla instruction).
    When I write new mail the signature is present but it is preceded by 2 dashes.
    I have no idea why and would like to have them removed please.

    You are refering to the signature delimiter.
    '''what does the delimiter do?'''
    http://www.ehow.com/info_12071771_email-signature-delimiter.html
    If the signature is placed directly after the reply and on top of the quote, it lacks the "-- " signature separator. That separator is used by Thunderbird to strip off the old signature when replying or changing identities. The signature becomes part of the message and can no longer be automatically removed (since it can't be identified using the seperator), causing a stacked signature
    ''' To switch it off for all identities of your accounts:'''
    Tools > Options > Advanced> General tab
    or
    menu icon > Options > Options > Advanced> General tab
    * click on 'Config editor' button
    it will tell you to be careful :)
    * in top search type: separator
    * look for this line: mail.identity.default.suppress_signature_separator; false
    * Double click to toggle 'false' to 'true' or right click on line and select 'Toggle'
    * Close config editor - top right X
    * click on OK to save changes in Options.
