    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
    If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

  • How to properly use tonal range definition?

    Hello, I am surprised that I cannot find any resources on the tonal range definition anywhere on the internet. A lot of people touch on it but nobody actually shows you how to practically use it. I am coming from FCP 7 which I like better in color correction (there were less controls)
    I assume you can define flesh tones as grey, highlights as white, and shadows as black. And then the midtone color wheel controls the grey area, hightlights wheel controls white area, and so on.
    I am also using a panasonic GH3 which I have found there not to be much play in the dynamic range (as compared to EX1) It seems I only have maybe quarter stop of play in the highlights. Well thats another issue, but I would love some resources on better understanding the tonal range definition feature in three way color corrector.
    Thanks!
    Jay

    Hello Jay ...
    Which version of PPro are you using? Do you have Speedgrade also? Or AfterEffects?
    I've got a GH3 three, and also a D600 Nikon. LOVE working with the GH3 footage ... the D600's ok. Does either of them have the total dynamic depth of a Red or Arri? Um ... no. But precise metering and WB before exposure should give you a complete range to deal with in post afterwards. I'm not sure of your experience, but ... if you are planning on doing much "grading", as corrections of color/s-/tonality are called, you do want to shoot fairly "flat" as far as contrast settings in the camera. Most users of the GH3 ... no matter whether they use "Natural" or whatever as the base mode to shoot in ... set contrast to -1 to -4. In-studio stuff with very controlled lighting and exposure, -1 to maybe even 0 would be ok. Outside in bright light ... probably you're better of around -3 or -2 for contrast. Color ideas have changed a bit recently, at first "the Received Wisdom" was saturation at -4 or so, now ... a lot of us are moving to more -2 or thereabouts.
    This gives you files that you can pretty much grade the Hades out of ... again, they don't have the total "depth" of a $20G camera. You don't have room enough to ignore tight WB and exposure to begin with. Take care of those, you can do amazing stuff with the files.
    Now ... as to grading in PPro ... not the easiest. The three-way color corrector is used by a lot of people who work there, and it's good to get a handle on the settings that control where and when those wheels "work", whether on over-all, shadows, mids, highs. And yea, you kinda need to hunt for that and then play with it a while. I did NOT find that intuitive when I started with it. To be gentle of comment. In the CC versions there are better tools for grading in PPro, so yea ... it can be done. Read the books if you're going to grade there.
    The Hurkman book referenced above is EXCELLENT ... as is Hullfish & Fowler's "Color Correction for Video" ... also sitting here by my monitor. Read through those two, you'll have a vastly deeper understanding of what happens in ANY program you grade in. They both talk about the typical controls and sub-controls in video grading programs. I found understanding some of the sub-controls that "limit" the effect of the dials and whatnot in PPRo to be more complicated than just going into Sg.
    If you are on the CC apps, then you should also have access to Speedgrade and AfterEffects. Even on the pre-CC versions, you may have PPro & Ae ... a lot of people (like myself) did. Speedgrade is a grading program, period. And with the new direct-link from PPro in the CC versions, you don't "export" an edl or anything to go grade ... just click a menu item & your timeline opens in Sg. WAY cool. When you're done grading, you just click to go back to PPro and it saves the file and takes you back to PPro ... sweet. After reading the mentioned books, watching a LOT of lynda.com tutorials and some from Creative Cow and Adobe, I've found Sg to be a very handy program, like working in it very much EXCEPT for the poor utilization of the scopes, which ... well ... anyone who's read much of anything here or on the Sg forum knows about. Sigh. They're usable, if not optimal.
    There are quite a few people who don't bother with Sg and instead prefer to grade in Ae. I found that possible but oh my ... my head hurts at all the options all it's controls have. It can do about anything, though. It works quite well for master-level graders who have tons of their own LUT's that they use as a "base" look for near anything they'll work. Shian Storm has his "Color Ghears" for that ... and they can do a huge amount on your "look" by just cliking one or the others within Ae. There's many places to get LUT's to expand your tool-set.

  • Is there a way to transfer music from PC to IPad without using ITunes

    can I transfer music I already have on my PC windows 7 to my IPad without using Itunes on the PC? I cannot get it to download on my PC.

    Only if you are in a country where you can re-download your iTunes purchases on your iPad's iTunes, and if you've signed up for iTunes Match for the CDs that you've copied - otherwise you will need to go via iTunes on your computer.
    If you are having problems downloading iTunes on your computer then you could try posting in the iTunes for Windows forum and see if anybody there can help.

  • Is there any way to delete songs directly from my iPhone without using iTunes?

    I'm trying to delete music directly from an iPhone 4 in iTunes on the device rather than using my laptop to delete and then sync it. Is there any way to delete music completely from my phone without using my latop?

    I tried this, firstly de-clicked the title in iTunes and syned with my iPhone4 but the title is still there on the phone. so deleted the title from iTunes and re-syned but alas the title is still there.
    any ideas?

  • Is there any way I can update my iPad to ios5 without using iTunes?

    My home PC crashed, and I haven't gotten a new one yet, and it's my understanding that if I can upgrade to ios5, I can use the Cloud instead.  Also, what about all of my music in iTunes that is stores on my external hard drive?
    Thanks.

    Ok, one more, and I promise I'll be done ....
    It looks like what I'm going to have to do is get a new laptop/pc - I'm fine with that. 
    However, presuming I get a new PC, install iTunes, all of my current stuff on my iPad and iPhone is backed up, I install the new os, and everything is good .... then I plug in my external hard drive with all of my music.  Some of the iTunes music and movies on my external drive were purchased years ago with a now defunct Apple account and Yahoo email address.  How can I access these items? I remember getting an error last time I tried to sync, and these items wouldn't sync.
    Thanks again!  This discussion group has given me more information in 10 minutes than 2 days searching the net.

  • Product-sku-output-config.xml - Is there a schema definition (XSD or DTD)?

    For the product-sku-output-config.xml file (used to define the set of product and sku attributes that are sent to Endeca from ATG as part of the Baseline Index process, as defined in chapter 4 of the ATGEndecaIntegrationGuide.pdf, 10.1.2 version), is there a schema definition (XSD or DTD) available?
    The format used by product-sku-output-config.xml seems similar to, but not the same as, the format described by http://www.atg.com/dtds/search/indexing-dependency-schema.dtd. For example, p35 of the ATGEndecaIntegrationGuide.pdf gives an example of a product-sku-output-config.xml with a "properties" child element of the top-level "item" element; per that indexing-dependency-schema.dtd, that isn't allowed. (Per that DTD, it should be either "meta-properties" or "text-properties", not "properties".)
    More generally, I'm wondering if there's place that fully defines what can go into the product-sku-output-config.xml file.
    I'm also interested this same question for the category-dim-output-config.xml file.
    Thanks,
    -Jon

    You can restore on iTunes without a sim card by using recovery mode. This will take the iPhone back to factory settings.
    You won't be able to activate (set up) the iPhone without a sim card though.

  • Is there any documentation on creating basic paper reports?

    Hi - I have just started to try to create a report. We have 9i reports but don't need any of the web stuff. I only need to create reports off of our database, run them on my workstation, and print out hardcopies to give to 1 or 2 managers.
    Is there any documentation that would just teach me how to create simple reports without all the web functionality? I was trying to follow along in the Reports Builder 6i, but it seems a lot has changed since 6i and I am having trouble just trying to find the corresponding buttons in 9i.
    I need to learn how to create reports, triggers, and especially I want to learn how to rearrange the report output after it has been created. It seems very confusing to me how to do this on Paper Layout or Paper Design screen.
    Thanks for any help. I would even go buy a book if there were a good one.

  • How to keep a new Address Book entry separate from current Address Book

    I am developing a list of 500 emails that I will use for a group email. I want to avoid adding them to my current address book entries and make a totally separate file that I can access when I want to send to this group only.
    Is there a way to do this? Thanks.

    Address Book only supports one list of contacts, not multiple address books. However, you can create the list as a Group within Address Book. If you don't want to keep that group around all the time, you can export the whole group as a vCard (File menu > Export Group vCard), delete the group from your list, and when you want to send mail to the group, just drag-and-drop the vCard to the Bcc: field of a new mail message (or the To: field, but the Bcc: field is the proper one to use, so the recipients of the group email can't see the email addresses of the other recipients).
    To access the Bcc: field, click the to the left of Subject.
    Hope this helps...

    Try this...
    have a text convo with the person you want to delete. Go to the top contact in the text convo, hit edit contact, and delete that contact.
