I can't to turn on the grid screen in my viewfinder.

I went to C. FnIV, highlighted #1 but there is no grid in the viewfinder. What's up?

If you are changing a C.Fn then you have a camera that can take interchangeable focusing screens like an EOS 60D, EOS 5D Mark II, EOS 50D, EOS 40D, EOS 5D. On those cameras the change of the focussing screen is required to see the grid pattern in the viewfinder. However since the focussing screen is a bit different in brightness the camera needs to be told which screen is in use so it can adjust the cameras metering correctly.
On the EOS 7D for example that has an overlay it is possible to switch on or off the grid in the viewfinder. However you cannot change the focussing screen on this camera.

  • When I use the lasso background turns on the grid

    Hi
    I am using Photoshop CS5 on MAC. When I use the lasso tool and after closing the selection, background turns automatically on the grid background (white and grey squares) . I cant change it back to grey solid background. Please help in solving this problem.
    WJ

    I dont want to change that in preferences because the grid background is very useful when I cut out with lasso tool from a photo. I just want to turn off the grid around my photo (red outline)
    Thank you

    I don’t quite follow your description but if it’s just about the display of transparent areas that can be changed in the Preferences.

  • I accidently click for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen?

    Co-el, This wasn't possible as there wasn't a navigation bar available. The F11 did the trick though. Thanks for adding to the discussion.

  • How can I turn off the home screen preview of SMS/text messages on 3GS

    How can I turn off the home screen preview of SMS/text messages on my new Iphone 3GS ?

    Go to Settings>Messages and choose "No" under "Show Preview" which will hide the text part of the SMS/text message but still will pop up on who its from and just says "text message" on it.
    Other than this there is not a complete way to disable the notification.

  • This is a silly question, but I cannot fix it! The icons that appear on my photos after I edit them, have gone away. The only way I can see them is in the Grid view. How can I get the icons back on the thumbnail photos of the full gallery that is loaded?

    You have likely dragged the size of the filmstrip thumbnails to a small size that prevents Lightroom from displaying the badges. Using your mouse, mouse over the top line of the filmstrip and then drag it supports to increase the size.

    Try to reset the device:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the
    Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot
    normally.

  • Recently updated the the apple tv remote app for my iPhone4. Now can no longer turn on the apple tv "box" on/off using iPhone app.  Only thing that shows on iP screen is music library.  Home Sharing is on. Any help appreciated.

    Recently updated the the apple tv remote app for my iPhone4. Now can no longer turn on the apple tv "box" on/off using iPhone app as I used to do before the update.  Only thing that shows on iPhone screen is music library.  Home Sharing is on. Any help appreciated.  Sorry if this is not exactly the right place to post this!

    One clue: I have found a reliable way to solve the problem when it happens.
    In my network, I have the main Airport Extreme (Gen 1) which is connected to my router, which distributes IP addresses to my internal subnet.  The other two AEs (one Gen 4, one Gen 5) are set to extend the network.
    When I get this problem with an AppleTV 2 that can "see" my library, but when I try to open it, it says it couldn't find the library, it seems to have to do with a change in which Airport Extreme it's talking to.
    If I restart the main Airport Extreme from the Airport Utility, effectively restarting the entire wireless network, then when the network resumes, every AppleTV 2 is happy again.
    Unfortuntely, the problem does seem to recur - but I'm wondering if it's because temporary interference leads an AppleTV 2 to try to connect to a different AE, and somehow that's mucking with the Home Sharing.  Remember, internet access (Trailers, Store, Netflix) have no issues.  Purely Home Sharing.

  • In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?

    In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?

    How is it a security breach? You're free to turn off lock screen notifications for the phone app so that no one can do that.... even if they can, they can only call the number that called you... nothing else. (well, except for 900 or whatever the emergency services number is where you are, but that's required by law).

  • Turning off the iPad screen when synchronizing with the iTunes

    Quick question: How do I turn off the iPad screen when synchronizing with the iTunes. Is this even possible? Are there settings I am overlooking? Or perhaps a third-party app which can make it happen?
    I have a large library and often leave my iPad connected to iTunes for several hours at a stretch. The bright glowing screen can be a big distraction, and, more importantly I am very worried about pixel burn-in.
    Cheers,

    The iPad LED Backlit IPS Screen is not phosphor-based, so there is no permanent phosphor burn-in problem. You might see some image persistence, but that is not permanent and can be corrected. See this support article about image persistence: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2807
    Since you have already converted your music to 128 kbps, you are unlikely to see any more 10+ hour syncs unless you have to do a restore. In that event, you could select the brightness control in settings to the lowest level.
    FYI, there are some apps, such as Night stand HD that are designed to be used for long periods with unvarying displays and I have yet to see image persistence problems reported. However, since the iPad is still a new product, there may be some reports in the future.

  • How to turn of the automatically screen/keylock ti...

    Hi!
    I have a E7-00 with Nokia Belle. To avoid accidentally making a call when my phone is my pocket, I can lock the keys and screen with the slide key lock switch.
    My problem is that the keys and screen locks automatically. I don’t want that, because it’s not necessary in my office or at home (the phone is just lying on the desk).
    Questions: How can I turn of the automatically screen/keylock time-out?!
    When I select > Settings and Phone > Display > Screen/keylock time-out, I can only define the length of time between 1-5 min. But I can’t turn it off!
    The slide key lock switch is sufficient. I don’t need the automatically screen/keylock. I want to choose by myself with the slide key lock.
    In advance, thanks for your help.

    @iMars
    Probably the best you could achieve is use of application such as PocketLock where just covering the proximity sensor activates screen lock but disables auto-locking when doing so that when the sensor is uncovered again the phone automatically unlocks:http://store.ovi.com/content/35377

  • Airplay streaming stops when you turn off the iPad screen

    Hi All,
    If you are streaming something from your iPad using Airplay, and you hit the button to turn off the iPad screen, it seems that the streaming stops...
    Is there any way to fix that?  I mean, if you are watching a long video, for example, you don't want your iPad to remain on the whole time.
    Any advice?
    - Thanx
    - Jon

    Jon-
    You are saying the AirPlay App does not work when the iPad goes to sleep.  Other Apps do, including the Music App, so you might expect AirPlay to work as well.
    Another limit may be the timer setting at Settings-General-Auto Lock.  Mine is set to 5 Minutes by default.  You may need to set yours to Never, to keep the iPad from sleeping while streaming.
    I suggest you provide feedback to Apple at <iPad Feedback>.

  • Is it possible to turn of the touch screen on my T410s?

    I have a T410s and i think that the processing speed of my computer is slowed by having the touch screen on constantly even when not in use. Is there a way to turn it off when im not using it? Even if the processing speed isn't lowered I still would like to turn of the touch screen sometimes.

    Try start->search for pen and touch--> then uncheck "Use your finger as an input device" in the Touch tab.
