How to calibrate a monitor for Win 7 Pro?

Thanks for any suggestions?
Hersch Pilloff          [email protected]

Some devices will calibrate/profile only monitors, some (more expensive ones) will also profile printers.  Profiling printers is not so important to most people. 
Older devices (e.g. Eye One Display 2, Spyder 2) are not suitable for wide-gamut displays. 
There are no special requirements for Lightroom or Windows 7.

  • How do I set-up my TV as a dual monitor for my MacBook Pro?

    Hi
    I have a mid-2009 MacBook Pro running (OS X 10.8.2) Mountain Lion, and recently I rearranged my home workspace so that I can view my TV from my desk while I work.
    I would like to set-up my TV as a dual monitor for my MacBook Pro, so I can stream videos on my TV screen and have the whole screen to do work on my MacBook Pro at the same time.
    Is this possible? I've seen people use TVs as a mirror display (where it works as their main and only monitor), but never as a fully operational dual display.
    As an example, I would like to have my MacBook screen showing a desktop with the whole screen devoted to Photoshop, while I have another desktop running on my TV, which shows an internet browser or other application.
    If this is possible, what cords/hardware would I need, and what are the settings that will enable me to do this?
    - My TV is a modern flatscreen LCD, and it has two HDMI ports in the back.
    - It's about 9-10 feet from my desk.
    If anyone could help, that'd be awesome!
    Thanks.

    Yes, you can do that.
    You'll need a mini displayport to HDMI adaptor:

    and an HDMI cable long enough to reach your TV
    (look on Amazon or Monoprice for the best price on any of those parts)
    In your display options, you will just choose extended desktop vs mirrored display.

  • Does anyone know How to run twin monitors on a MacBook Pro operating on a Windows Server 2008 R2 ?

    Hi
    Does anyone know How to run twin monitors on a MacBook Pro operating on a Windows Server 2008 R2 ?

    I know this doesn't help you much, but, I think you have to see if your Mac pro does audio out via HDMI. I don't even know if mine does via DVI. I think it may have to do with the adapter. Try going into Audio MIDI and setting the digital out to multichannel
    and using the toslink cable for now. Lemme see...apparently DVI does not carry audio at all. Hm. apparently monoprice could be helpful?  If I understand what you're saying correctly: you want to take DVI and multichannel audio via the Toslink and have it all go out over HDMI, right? Whooo..... amazon...looks like it's about $100http://www.amazon.com/Audio-SPDIF-Toslink-Converter-Adapter/dp/B0015YYOQQ
    just a shot in the dark
    I'm probably wrong....or not

  • Dual monitors for my macbook pro

    I want to use dual monitors for my macbook pro but I am getting mixed answers as to if that is possible. I want to use just the two monitors, so basically I am thinking I will plug my macbook into the monitors, close my macbook and use a blue tooth mouse and keyboard on the two monitors. I want to know if that is possible. Also, I am wondering about the adapters. I know that one end should be the thunderbolt and then the other end will have whatever the monitor needs (DVI/VGA) but all the adapters I see only have one place to plug a monitor in, and I will be need two.

    It is possible.
    I currently use a thunderbolt to vga adaptor and a usb to vga adaptor to run two independent monitors.
    However, the usb to vga adaptor is not great.  I'm using an Eclipse See2 UV159 but the screen does not come out as good as the thunderbolt to vga adaptor. 
    I'm currently looking for a better adaptor.

  • I would like to use my IMAC (early 2006) as a monitor for my macbook pro. Is it possible?

    Is it possible to use as a monitor for a macbook pro an IMAC (early 2006)?

    There's no direct input, but ScreenRecycler and Air Display both allow you to use any networked computer as additional display. I haven't tried either but perhaps one of them would work for you.

    How long does it take for a Macbook Pro to be shipped to your home?

    Depends on the method of shipping. Normal FedEx takes 5-7 days. You would have to pay extra for 2-day or overnight.

  • How to calibrate 2 monitors with Spyder 2 Suite?

    Hi there!
    I've just replaced my 24" imac with a new Mac Pro and two shiny new Samsung 206bw 20" displays.
    My question is how do i calibrate both monitors with my Spyder 2 Suite?
    It only seems to offer calibration for one monitor?
    Any help would be great.

    That's because the software thinks you changed your primary monitor. Each monitor will have its own color profile as long as you don't give them both the same name.

    Hi,
    I will provide a little specification about the concepts to remove some confusion.
    This mailing list is about JBI the specification. Not about any Sun product.
    I suggest we take subsequent discussion to the users@openesb mailing list.
    https://open-esb.dev.java.net/MailingLists.html
    - OpenESB is the product which includes a BPEL Runtime Engine.
    http://wiki.open-esb.java.net/
    http://wiki.open-esb.java.net/Wiki.jsp?page=BPELSE
    - Glassfish (the appserver) contains some of the core OpenESB pieces. Which is why you see the BPEL engine without installing openesb.
    - NetBeans has plugins to develop artefacts for OpenESB components. This includes a BPEL editor.
    - Sometimes you get pieces of OpenESB development tools and runtime tools in Glassfish and NetBeans without installing OpenESB.
    - This causes confusion for many people. Including yourself.
    Although you are developing and running in NetBeans and Glassfish, you are really using the OpenESB BPEL engine.
    To answer your question, yes it is possible to do what you want.
    This links I provided previously show how to monitor the openesb bpel engine. This is what you are using.

  • How to enable VT-x for Win 7 boot camp partition MacBook pro?

    I am trying to install HAXM to accelerate my android emulator, but I am having problems. I have a Win 7 bootcamp partition in my Macbook Pro, and when I am finishing the installation a message pops up saying that my VT-x is not enabled, the problem is that I can't access the BIOS to turn on the virtualization easily like a PC user, How to enable the VT-x for Win 7 boot camp partition?
    The VT-x is running beautiful in my macintosh partition, but I can't understand why in my boot camp partition the VT-x remains disabled.
    My processor is a Intel Core I5-2435M , I downloaded the intel processor identification utility, and my processor supports the virtualization tech and hyper-threading tech.

    You can return that Mac for a full refund if it is less than 14 days from date of purchase.

    I have the same problem. Have you figured this out yet? I just bought a MacBook Air 2013. I thought I would be able to use Virtualization because it has a supported processor, but now it won't work in Boot Camp.

  • Full HD LCD TV as external monitor for Win XP games?

    Hello everyone,
    I have a current MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.5.2 (Great machine.
    I am also running Windows XP via BootCamp for some business applications and games.
    I would now like to buy a "Full HD" LCD TV (probably the Samsung LE 40 M 86 BD) and use it as an external monitor for gaming, using a DVI > HDMI cable.
    Will this work? I.e.:
    + MacBook Pro (2 GB / 2.2 GHz / GeForce 8600M GT)
    + BootCamp & Windows XP SP2
    + DVI > HDMI Cable
    + Samsung Full HD TV (1920x1080)
    + DirectX 8/9 games (Half-Life 2, Portal, Far Cry etc.)
    = Big Screen Gaming?
    Or are there pitfalls I am currently not thinking of?
    (This is one of those questions where the typical TV dealer / Windows gamer will shrug and say "Yeah. Whatever. Should work. Maybe. Buy everything and try it.")
    I'd be glad if people who have tried this could share their experiences.
    Thanks.

    Thing is, I am trying this too. However, the only option I get is to clone the display. This is not what I want, I want to use the TV as the primary display. This way games will startup on the big TV and not on my Macbook Pro. Now I don't get the option to use that TV as a primary display.
    So leaves me with the option to clone the display and have same image rendered on both screens... This is NOT what i want. In Leopard everything works great... obviously...
    PLease let me know if you got any solutions for this

  • Audio garbled with 9.0.115.0 for Win XP Pro

    Using Win XP Pro and IE7, Audio is garbled in some Camtasia
    Studio productions with 9.0.115.0 that still play just fine with
    9.0.47.0 installed on a laptop.
    Steps taken:
    1. Have updated Driver, Realtek AC97 Audio, (ALCXWDM.SYS,
    version 5.10.0000.6270, date, 10/26/2007).
    2. Installed K-Lite Codec Pack 357 Full.
    3. Ran CCleaner and cleared cache for Adobe Flash Player.
    4. Affirmed configuration is set for Desktop Stereo.
    5. Secured all Audio Cables.
    6. Tried to re-install 9.047.0 by uninstalling 9.0.115.0 and
    running the archived flashplayer9r47_winax.exe, but the installer
    would not run after giving me a popup advising of a newer version
    available for download that was recommended as more secure by
    Adobe.
    SUMMARY: Some audio remains ungarbled (MP3s and UTUBE), but I
    have had trouble with some Camtasia productions.
    1. Does anyone have any ideas about what is going on and
    possible remedies?
    2. Is there a way to get flashplayer9r47_winax.exe to
    actually run and go back to the previous version 9.0.47.0?
    Thanks for your help.

    I have finally clarified the sound problem I reported in this
    forum.

    Flash files with audio sound garbled or high pitched
    Question
    Flash files played in the the newest version of the Flash
    Player sound garbled or have a high-pitched "chipmunk" sound to
    them.
    Answer
    The latest release of the Flash Player (v9.0.115.0 released
    on 12/03/07)) causes audio to sound garbled and/or high pitched
    like a chipmunk. Our development team is looking into this issue
    and working to find a fix.
    To avoid this problem, you can roll back your Flash Player to
    a previous release. If you have problems installing an older
    release of the Flash Player please review this article and contact
    Adobe for further support.
    At this time, the problem is limited only to SWF files
    produced with the MP3 audio codec. As a workaround, you can produce
    your SWF files with the PCM audio codec or use the FLV format
    instead of SWF.

    Safe versions security restrictions when installing Flash
    Player
    Issue
    If you previously installed a later version of Flash Player
    for Internet Explorer, you may be prevented from installing an
    earlier version. For example, if you installed Flash Player
    9.0.47.0 and attempted to install version 9.0.45.0 the installation
    would fail.
    Reason
    This issue is due to registry key settings applied by the
    Flash Player security model. The restriction is to prevent users
    from downgrading Flash Player minor versions. The minor version of
    Flash Player is the third set of numbers in the version name. For
    example, the minor version for Flash Player 9.0.47.0 would be 47.
    If Flash Player 9.0.47.0 was installed and you attempted to install
    9.0.45.0 (minor version 45), the installation would fail.
    Solution
    To resolve this, download the uninstaller for Flash Player
    from "How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX
    control" (TechNote tn_14157).
    Select Start.
    Select Run.
    Type cmd
    In the command window, type the following:
    uninstall_flash_player.exe /clean
    This will remove all entries in the system registry and
    resolve this issue.
    Note: The uninstall_flash_player.exe file must be saved to
    the same directory that the command window is in, for example C:\.

    Windows" (TechNote tn_19166).

    Hi,
    It depends. Do you have Windows 7 DVD? Does your computer have a Boot from EFI Drive option?
    Windows 7 DVD can boot in either BIOS mode or UEFI mode. Different UEFI firmware implementations support different methods for handling the installation operation. The processes for booting the computer into UEFI mode for the Windows product DVD are
    the same. If you can find a boot from EFI Drive option, please perform the suggestions as i referred to.
    If you cannot find any boot option, perform the steps below:
    Use Device Manager's Firmware option and select Boot from EFI Internal Shell.
    Use the EFI internal shell, as follows:
    Start the EFI internal shell from the EFI boot menu and select the drive with the Windows product DVD. The following example assumes that the drive is Fs0:
    Shell> Fs0:
    Start the EFI boot application. For example, on an x64 system, run the following command:
    fs0:> \EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI
    After the application starts, you may be immediately prompted to press a key to boot from the drive to continue. Press a key to continue booting from the installation media.
