HP Scanjet5500c dark images from TMA adapter for 35mm slides

Scanned 35mm slides using the TMA adapter turn out very dark, not suitable for printing. So dark people in the images are identifiable.
Should there be light showing from the TMA adapter in addition to the flatbed scanner? If so, that's my problem, a burned out bulb. Long time since I've used the TMA adapter so I can't recall if the adapter had a light when new.
Looking forward to your responses.
Thanks

Hi there @talker2002
Welcome to the forums
By your description, it does seem like a burnt out bulb. As HP does not replace the actual bulbs, I would suggest calling phone support directly to see what your options are.
If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and if you are calling outside of the US/Canada,: click here.

I used to be able to copy and paste images from the internet into keynote slides and pages. Now when I copy and paste all I get is an empty box. My iskysoft iTube studio has also stopped downloading videos. Is there an extension I need to enable?

Try dragging the image to the desktop, then drag the image to the slide you want it on

Dark images from Photoshop Elements 11

Printing from Photoshop Elements produces images much darker than the screen. Several hours on the Chat Line have not resulted in a cure. The images from Windows Print and Epson Easy Print are very good. I've re-loaded PSE11 and checked the drivers. Any ideas?

Three ideas:
In Editor>Edit menu>Color settings, check "Always manage Colors for Computer Screens"
In the printer, check printer to manage colors.
Turn down the brightness of your computer screen, and calibrate same.

Shock from AV Adapter for iPad

Ive had a mild electric shock from apples AV Adapter for iPad, and can see it has developed a split in the rubber casing, which has blown out at one end. Ive tried to talk to apple about this, but had no real responce so far. Ive had it for about 15 months now, so I dont supose they will replace it even though it started acting up and overheating some months back, but was told thats normal. I rreally think a so called high quality product (priced £35) should last longer and more importantly be safe. Whatever happens I wont be using it again. Has anyone else had any problems with this item ?

no but there are component and composite versions which does work with 3gs

Recommended 4000dpi Scanner for 35mm Slides...?

Can someone with experience of this topic recommend a scanner suitable for bulk scanning at 4000dpi of a collection of c. 7000 colour slides. I have looked at the Nikon Coolscan 5000 with the slide autofeeder, quite like the look of that one.
Anything else recommended? What's the best Mac friendly software to use?
Also, before the inevitable recommendation... , I want to do this myself rather than use a bureau service.

With due respect why do you feel you need 4000dpi? One slide done at 4000dpi will probably take about a day to scan and create a about a 2GB file! Unless you are going to be blowing up this slides to bill board size advertisements 4000dpi is WAY overkill.

Formula for scanning image from book to have at 1200 pixel width

I have to scan some images from a book for a website. The images in the book are various sizes ie 4" x 6". I need to have the final images, for the website, at 1200 pixels wide, 72 dpi. Is there a formula to use when scanning so that the scanned images will be 1200 dpi in width or very close to that.
TIA

Measure with width of the photo to be scanned and use the following formula:
Scanning dpi= 1200 divided by the width of the photo in inches
Scanning a 4x6 photo you would scan at 200 dpi. Because 200 dpi x 6 inches = 1200 pixels.

Graphics2D.scale() producing pixelated images from vectors

I have a set of JPanels that I am using in my game to display the interface. Each one overrides paintComponent() and draws itself using Java2D. That all works great -- you can zoom in, move around, etc. and it all looks very nice and uses affine transformations.
I'm trying to produce very high resolution images from this interface (for use on a poster) and using scale() is creating pixelated images rather than nice, high res images of the vector data.
My code works as follows:
1.) Create an instance of the interface using some saved game state data.
2.) Create a Graphics2D object from a BufferedImage object.
3.) Scale the Graphics2D object so that the interface will fill the entire image (in my test cases, the interface is running at 800x600 normally, and the resulting image is going to be 3200x1600, so a 4x scale).
4.) Call the interface's paint method on the Graphics2D object. Note that all of the paint methods are using calls to fill... and draw...; nothing is getting rasterized in my code.
5.) Write out the image object to a file (PNG).
A sample of the output is here:
http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w174/toupsz/ScreenShot2007-04-24_11-45-35_-0500.png
The white circle in the upper left hand corner is drawn in between steps 4 and 5. It actually looks correct.
Is there something I'm doing wrong? Is it a deficiency in Java itself? Is there some way to fix it?
Any help would be most appreciated!
Thanks!

Try setting a few hints on your Graphics2D:
g.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION, RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BICUBIC);
g.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
g.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_TEXT_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_TEXT_ANTIALIAS_ON);

Retrieve images from DB and attach them to email through javamail

Hi,
I'm trying to use javamail to send emails containing text and images (HTML mail), if I use a physical file in my computer as the image source and use FileDataSource everything works just fine. The problem is that the images in my app are stored into a DB (I'm using MySQL, java struts & DAO), so in order to retrieve & display them I use a jsp that returns a byte array as shown in the example bellow
<img src='getImage.jsp?itemId=<bean:write name="item" property="itemId"/>&heigth=180&width=140&imageIndex=1'/>getImage.jsp reads the image from the DB for the specified item and returns an image of size "heigth*witdh", this works fine when invoked from any jsp or java action class, but I can't get it to work to insert an image into an email as attachment
I've tried to use ByteArrayDataSource and the mail is sent correctly and can be read but the image won't show
bds = new ByteArrayDataSource("/getImage.jsp?itemId="+itemId+"&heigth=180&width=140&imageIndex=1", "image/jpeg");
imageMime.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(bds));
imageMime.setHeader("Content-ID", "<\" + itemId + \">"); // backslashes aren't there in the real code, but if I remove them '+ itemId +' won't show
mailParts.addBodyPart(imageMime);I've also tried with URLDataSource but can't get it to work either, can somebody plz point me in the right direction?
thanks in advance

Hello bshannon,
Thanks for your answer, I tried your suggestion but when I use URLDataSource I get the error message http 500 (in my original post I said that using URLDataSource the mail was sent but without the image... my mistake, I was getting this same error). I traced the error and I found that it is caused by a null pointer exception... let me explain
This is the code for the jsp that returns the image:
4        <jsp:useBean id="coverImage" class="com.mqm.struts.getImageAction" scope="session" />
5       <%
6           // Desired size of the image to return
7           int heigth = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("heigth"));
8          int width = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("width"));
9
10          // Each item can have up to 6 images (ordered by id), this indicates wich of one we have to return
11            int imageIndex = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("imageIndex"));
12        byte[] imgData = coverImage.getItemImageAction(request.getParameter("itemId"), request,heigth, width, imageIndex );
13        response.setContentType("image/jpeg");
14        OutputStream o = response.getOutputStream();
15         o.write(imgData);
16         o.flush();
17         out.clearBuffer();
18         o.close();
        %> getImageAction is my DAO class that actually reads the image data from the DB, when I use this 'getImage.jsp' inside any other jsp in the app it works, but when used as described in the first post the request parameter in the line 12 doesn't have the session info, apparently creates a new session or something and since I use information in the session to create the DAO factory I can't connect to the DB and get this error..
pls tell me if I explained my self or I'm just talking non sense

But in the case of partially broken links, I am not able to go furthur because the code keeps waiting to get some data.
So for this reason I want to setup a timer and tell the code to wait for 5-10 min, in that time if it does not get any data, proceed furthur to download other links...
Please tell me how can I do this.. or plzzz tell me an alternative...

Is Aperture 3 the best software for working on a databse of images from different photographers?

Hi everybody,
I have only been using Aperture for a few months and am unsure of its suitability for this project.
It seems to me that Aperture is designed for the photographer who wants to work on his own photos. I need to select, re-name, add metadata, keyword & eventually improve photos & re-size photos to be used on a website. Photos come from all over the world & different copyright names & rights.
In my previous job, I used XnView for PC for the selection, renaming & metadata process & Extensis Portfolio for adding keywords & Photoshop for working on technical improvements, I would like to know whether somebody out there uses Aperture (3) for much of this process.
Can you share an ongoing project over 2 different computer owned by 2 different people in Aperture 3 updating each simultaneously?
I will work on some photos on my computer and other photos at my client's house. I presume that I will have to export the photos that I work on on my computer to my USB stick in order to be able to read the information that I have saved on my computer on her computer??. It seems that even if one chooses to save photos to the original file and thus work on 'managed masters', it doesn't save over the original file. I have just done some more work on this photo database on my computer I decided to save to 'referenced master', ie: the aperture library.
However, when I want to continue working on this big project, I want to update the aperture photo library on my client's Aperture library, do I have to export the work I have done in my computer in Aperture to my USB stick and then re-import on the other computer to keep all the images up-to-date, this will be an ongoing situation. Can this work? I cannot see a way of joining the Aperture library from 2 computers in another way.
I have just read this article: http://www.apertureexpert.com/tips/2010/2/12/aperture-3a-game-changer-multiple-m acs-syncing-projects-more.html
It's very good but, I still don't understand how to take my edited images worked on in Aperture from my computer to my client's one. Do I have to connect the computers and if so how is this done?
I have also read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7863
If I want to constantly update each Aperture library when switching computers, do I have to follow this procedure of exporting the photos as a library from one computer to another with the updated images?
I really appreciate any clear help I can get from this forum.
Thank you in advance!

Aperture would be fine for a single editor editing images from multiple photographers. It would not work well (if at all) for multiple people trying to edit the same library.
so the answer to this:
Can you share an ongoing project over 2 different computer owned by 2 different people in Aperture 3 updating each simultaneously?
is no.
I will work on some photos on my computer and other photos at my client's house.
The images at your client's house will be from where? Will the client have Aperture running in the house on there computer?
Apart from those two the rest of your post is a bit impenetrable.
But a few thoughts you can mull over:
You could put the Aperture library on an external drive and carry the drive between locations. If you wanted to leave the library of a part of the library there you could copy to the clients drive (if you're leaving the whole thing) or else export the projects/albums/images as a library and have the client import that into there library (or just run it as a standalone library)

How stop PS6 from removing the DPI value from an image when using "save for the web"?

How stop PS6 from removing the DPI-value from an image when using "save for the web"?
Example:
- Open a tif image, that contains a dpi value (resolution).
- Use the splice tool in PS6.
- Export the slices with "Save for web", as gif-files.
Then the dpi value is removed, the gif files has no dpi value (it's empty).
How can we stop PS6 from removing the dpi value when using "save for web"?
OR:
When using the slice tool, how can we save the sliced pieces without PS removing the dpi value?

you can make your art go a little bit over the bounds. or you can make sure your artboart and art edges align to pixels
