How much brillance do you use on your T500 pls ?

Gents --
do you use 100% brilliance while AC-powered with your T500 or less than 100% ??
I am asking because I feel even at 100% brilliance the display is poor and dark and nothing to compare with my 6 yrs old banyas centrino notebook ..... and I caught myself using it instead of my new T500 2082-8WG which is hilarious ..... or  is simply something wrong with my eyes ....?
Thanks

I also have a 2082-8WG. It is about a month old. When AC-powered I use 100% brightness, but 90% is also comforatble to use. This is indoors, sometimes with relatively bright ambient light. I haven't tried, but I guess outdoors it would not be bright enough. The LCD panel in my T500 seems to have been made by IBM (is it possible?). In spite of some criticisms that I have seen in the blogs I find the screen good for photo-editing in Lightroom, even though I have an Eizo 22" monitor on my desktop PC for comparison.

    So I can sync two iPods to my iTunes account and sync the same digital copy movies that come with some o' my DVDs to both ipods? Do movies make a difference really, DRM-Wise? Thanks in advance.

  • How much data did you use on day #1?

    Just to get some perspective on how much people are using....
    How much have you used so far?
    What have you been doing to use data? Downloading apps, surfing the 'net, YouTube, hotspot, facetime, etc...
    I've used approximately 1.2mb: 360kb sent, 917kb received. I pre-loaded my apps in iTunes, so this was mostly web surfing & using apps. This was since about noon yesterday.

    a lot of people would be ok. the problem that the carriers run in to are the average user that doesn't even know how to check the data usage. they have their email, facebook, weather, etc, etc constantly syncing and then download a movie or something....and before they know it they are at 3 gigs and storm into the store, irate, when they see their overage fees....lol

  • When using applications how much usage are you using or are you using none

    ive downloaded some free applications on to my iphone lie (facebook, myspace, webmessenger) when actually usually the applications does that use the usage that i get monthly how does it work.

    Hello Kazza0181,
    As Tamara mentioned, any application that involves access to the Internet to function (and all the applications you mentioned do require Internet access), you are using the phone carrier's data network.
    Since I'm in the U.S. I'm not familiar with the data plans for the carrier in Australia. If your phone plan does not include unlimited data or it has a monthly limit before you are charge extra, your best option is to use WiFi instead of the cellular data network when you're using those applications. If you have WiFi enabled and you are connected to a trusted network (your own or a commercial WiFi hotspot), the iPhone will receive and send data via WiFi. Any data that travels over WiFi will not be reflected in your cellular data plan. Some commercial hotspots have their own charges to join their network, so check with the staff of the location providing the WiFi access for information on how to join their network and what charges may apply.
    Tips for using a WiFi network can be found here:

    Also, see page 100 of the User's Guide:

  • Survey : How much music do you have on your 160 iPod Classic ?

    I am still having problems, filling up my 160 GB iPod Classic. So I am interested, if there is anybody who has been able to utilize the full 148 GB.
    My Status :
    127,000 Songs (104 GB) Runs fine
    127,500 Songs (105 GB) iPod no longer plays songs (shows a big amount of 'other' space used in Settings/About - can not find songs, artists albums etc.), even after iPod restart.

    Well, this could be a *very* difficult thread for me to answer, seems as my music taste can be quite varied. Well, most of the music I have can be put in the realms of "metal", but then there are soundtracks and other groups I have in the collection that don't quite correlate.
    My mood doesn't generally wholly affect what I'm listening to, although it can affect my mood *when* I listen to things. I know what... I'll put some of my favourite songs down... and you can all deem for yourselves what my music taste is like.

  • How much data do you generally use a month?

    Hi everybody. So i am another guy who's getting the iphone 5 at a discount price.. .
    I know they are gonna take my unlimmited data away, and i'll be force to choose the 2GB/$30 a moth, so i was curious too know how much data do i use per month, if 2GB was enough for me. It seems like it, i use 500 MB average a month. But having LTE means more speed, more data, so hopefully 2GB will cover my needs. How about you guys? how much data do you use a month?

    21stNow wrote:
    My usage patterns vary, but 1-5GB a month is normal for me.
    Note that people who participate on forums may not be a good representation of the general population.  We tend to use our mobile technology so much that we are on our carriers' forums.
    Also more likely to use our mobile data plan to access those forums. I know I do.
    As for usage. 2-6 GB per month depending how much I use it.

    Start up iTunes, and select Music, then click Songs.
    Down at the bottom of the iTunes window, it will tell you how much space your library occupies.

  • When I see the usage on my iPod touch 4 they have categories for how much space is being used where. What does the "other" category contain? Like what could I delete on my iPod to get rid of the "other" category?

    What is the Other on my iPhone and How to Remove It
    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.
    First try:
    "First you go settings/general/usage/music/then left swipe over music and press delete and you would think it deletes your music but it doesn't instead it deletes your other but make sure your ipod is connected to a computer while doing this"
    as recommended by:

    Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

  • Why do I have to guess how much data I might use in a month when I select a plan?

    When I sign up for water service, I don't guess that I might use 1,000 gallons a month, and then pay three times the going rate for water if I take a few extra showers. I get charged for how much water I use that month.
    When I sign up for electricity service, I don't guess that I might use some set number of kilowatt hours, and then pay three times the going rate if we have a heat wave and I run my air conditioner for a few extra hours.
    Why do I have to guess how much data I might use, and then spend three times the going rate if I stay up watching youtube videos for a few extra nights?
    It is stressful to have to constantly monitor usage, and figure out ratios of how much I've used compared to how much time is left in the billing cycle to see if I need to curb my usage. It is not a good customer experience. I would prefer that data be charged a flat rate based on actual usage, perhaps with an option to throttle speeds at certain levels to prevent cases where a minor lapse in judgment could ruin my monthly budget, like forgetting to check data usage religiously on a device meant to simplify my life.
    Thank you for your consideration.

    Simple answer is Verizon is offering a block of data for usage.
    Where I live the water bill states my wife and I are being charged for 30,000 gallons per quarter/half and the price is say $60 however we never use any where near that amount. I send the meter reading in and it shows the amount we use. But the hamlet we are in has a set amount of gallons. Not fair but we live with it.
    For your data outside of the unlimited which is not available any more to new customers you may be a light user and never go over the 2GB for $30 dollars a month. If you do you will pay through the nose for data. If you pay for more data say 4GB and I don't have the price for it so lets say its $70 then you don't have to watch as much for overage fees. But you are paying for the data in advance so as not go over and get hit with whopping fees.
    It is just the way it is.

  • How much data does AirPlay use?

    Let's say one 90 min. movie streaming from my Mac to atv2. Any ideas aprox. How much Internet data that uses?

    You said internet data and the Apple TV doesn't use the internet when streaming from your mac ***. (The internet is the other side of your router).
    Additionally I assumed the question was related to cost or caps on data usage by your ISP, since any data you stream on your own local network doesn't cost anything (because it doesn't use the internet) it is somewhat irrelevant, although you may well stream 2-3 GB data per movie over your local network.
    *** If you stream purchased content from your own iTunes library on your mac, the Apple TV may well connect to Apple to verify authorisation, but this an insignificant amount of data and likely measured in a few KB. (1,000,000 KB = 1 GB)

    It will use minimal internet bandwidth unless your content is streaming from web>iPad>AppleTV. 
    Local network comms for content already on the iPad (eg presentations) will not generally use internet bandwidth apart from protected iTunes material that requires brief internet authorisation.

  • Is there a way to find out how much storage I have used on my iphone4s?

    I am new to icloud and want to back up my phone but it is saying I have too much data to back up to the free 5.0GB.  I can purchase more but note sure how much I will need.  Is there a way to find out how much storage my phone is currently using?

    Go to Settings - General - Usage, and you will see a breakdown of all your apps along with how much space they are using.
    My guess is that you have a lot of pictures that should probably be exported to your PC/Mac to free up your space.   5GB is a lot for one phone, you should be able to get by without buying more storage if you do a little housecleaning first.

  • Which camera calibration profile do you use for your imports?

    I have a Canon camera, and have always just imported with the LR  settings left to Adobe default, including the Calibration panel set to  Adobe Standard profile. Sometimes it provides a satisfactory starting  point, other times not. Since reading in another topic's posts  concerning importing with other profiles (and setting them as a new  import default), I have tinkered around with trying this out. Just  curious how others handle their import settings. Do you leave everything  at Adobe default (basic, tone curve, detail, calibration)? Or, do you  reset to a  custom default? What are the actual settings that you use  and your reasons why. And, do you import with lens corrections enabled.  This information would be a big help in gaining a better understanding  of this aspect of LR.
    Thanks

    Rob Cole wrote concerning Lens Correction settings:
    I only do 80% of vignette correction, and 0% of distortion correction by default, and revisit that decision after importing, but nothing sacred about it - plenty of people use 100% for those too and do fine, or use their own pet numbers...
    Yes, absolutely use Lens Correction along with Camera Profiles. Like Rob said, "No reason not to!" But there are some considerations. You may like a little vignetting in the picture and 100% pretty much wipes-out all vignetting. Also, since vignetting correction raises image corner brightness, lens aberrations such as astigmatism and coma will be more visible and can reduce image quality near the edges. It's a trade-off as to what amount to use, which will vary dependent on your lens corner performance. I use a default vignetting setting of 50% for wide angle zooms and 100% for all other lenses, and only adjust higher if the image benefits from it. Distortion setting in an ideal world should benefit from 100% correction, BUT it can also degrade the corner resolution with wide-angle zoom lense images which typically have high barrel distortion. I use a default setting of 0%, and only use it for correcting images with obvious geometry distortion. Even then I rarely need to use 100% to make things look "normal." Chromatic Abberrations adjustment can safely be used at 100% for maximum benefit, assuming the profile is accurate over the zoom focal range. The new Adobe lens profiles seem to work very well in this respect.
    These are great"automatic" tool adjustments to make our less than perfect zoom lenses perform near prime lens image quality. OK, zooms don't have the wider aperature of prime lenses, but the high ISO of today's DSLR bodies give us a lot of latitude to play with!
