Is there a way to correct the pyramind effect caused by a UWA Lens in Lightroom?

Is there a way to correct the slight inverted pyramid effect caused by a 17-40 when taking interior room shots in Lightroom or do I have to go to PhotoShop to do this? I have found the lens profile correction but are there other tools in LR to use?
What I am seeing is a slight outward shift from floor to ceiling on side walls and need to straighten these walls.
Thanks

Lee,
Found those - thanks! So, I really don't need to go to PhotoShop?
Do I need to crop after adjusting the sliders - in my case, mostly the vertical slider?
Also, can you say a little more about "Upright?" And, if you know, will LR 5 be a charged-for upgrade to LR 4?
Thanks again!

Does anyone know how the cutout filter works and is there a way of achieving the same effect without using filters to get more control over final look?

does anyone know how the cutout filter works and is there a way of achieving the same effect without using filters to get more control over final look?

Several ways to get similar results. Image > Adjustments > Posturize with low values similar to what you'd use n Cutout. This is the most flexible way I can think of as you keep the image in RGB mode with layers intact. A more radical approach would be to reduce bit depth using Indexed Colour. You'll need to experiment with settings, try changing Forced to Primaries, and Matte to Foreground Color. There's no going back from this route, although you can change the mode back to RGB to re-enable layers, adjustment layers etc.
A nice thing about the Filter gallery filters is that you can change the layer to a Smart object with all the control that gives you.
Now if only this forum could filter out bizarre content.

I have files that freeze my programs whenever I try to open ANY file. Is there a way to find the exact files causing the crash?

I have files that are freezing my programs (adobe; after effect and photoshop, as well as maxon cinema 4d). Whenever I try to import ANY file from within the program it doen't even let me select the file I need before freezing. I have moved all files off my desktop and into my dropbox, and it now allows me to import files/search for files on the desktop but NOT dropbox, once I go to dropbox it freezes again. I am assuming there are files within dropbox now that are crashing my programs. The problem is I have a lot of files in there and would like to remove the corrupt ones so that I can use my programs without freezing. Is there a way to find the exact files causing the crash?
This has happened a couple of times and each time I have to move all my files off my desktop, so there must be a type of file doing this, I just don't know what files they are.

ANY help would be greatly appreciated! It is making it really hard to get work done. THANKS!

This error sounds to me like you have/had BootCamp Windows installed and then removed, posible ?
If so (and even if not so), try restating your MBA while holding down the alt/option-key until you get to the Boot Selection Screen.
Choose to boot OSX.
Once in OSX go to System Preferences then Startup Volume and set your OSX to be the default.
Hope it helps

Is there a way of added a filter/effect like cutout, watercolor, charcoal, etc. in Lightroom 5?

I used to use Photoshop Elements and loved using the Filters like charcoal, watercolor, pastel, etc. Is there a way of doing this in Lightroom 5?
THANKS!!

These are not features of Lightroom.
You could still use Photoshop Elements for this, use the Photo->Edit In... command to send photos from Lightroom to PSE, the in PSE do a Save (not Save As) when done.

Is there a way to increase the number of "Open Recent" files that is listed Lightroom 5?

In previous versions this was unlimited. It allowed me a quick way to view catalogs I have worked on even months ago.
There are no options inside Lightroom 5 to adjust this that I can find.
So is there a file I can modify in the Lightroom system folder or in the registry that will remove the limited number or increase the number allowed in the list?

I agree that there really isn't a benefit to having multiple catalogs. I have two catalogs that I use. One is my main catalog that has multiple years and all of the images that I want to keep. The other one is my "test catalog" that I use for experimenting with different photo techniques. None of those images are important enough for me to want to keep them with my other ones. I don't use it very often anymore. But it's there just in case. There's not a performance hit for having thousands of images in a single catalog. The catalog is primarily a database designed for high-volume use. Having all images in a single catalog simplifies searching and organization in general. But if you're happy with multiple catalogs then go for it. Sometimes the more difficult way is easier to understand.
Ok so let the debate begin....
So why have multiple catalog choices at all? When you load a catalog it contains all of the images and the modification data that you have done to each picture with in each module in Lightroom.
Beyond that you have within that catalog a 1000 folders each with a day or name for the shots taken. You still have to rifle through those files and imagines anyway all the while having a years worth of photography packed in to one single catalog. Why?
I am a professional photographer, I shoot daily, and I import my shots each day in a folder dated and named for the shot. I create a new catalog for those folders so that I can open only that catalog and what was done with it at the time.
It is easy for me to pop open that catalog and keep it separate from all my other days of work and back it up individually. I can quickly run back through my archives and find a client for reprints and all of the setting done for that client or project stay with the catalog.
So why pack everything in to one master huge catalog? even if it is just data it can be a lot over time depending on how much work you do. I myself take 100s of shots per day and this is the system I like best to protect mine and my clients work.
But really thanks for your comments I will continue working my way with all of my work spilt in to separate catalogs.
I wont be back on these forums anytime soon because like most of them you can not get an answer to the actual question you ask instead you get berated by some people who have too much time on their hands and not enough work to.

In Aperture, is there any way to remove the speckled effect from scanned early matt prints?

I have a number of photos from the 1960s and 70s, the surface of which is covered with a matt effect. I suppose this was designed to stop fingerprints, but when scanned it shows up as a fine network of bright semicircles. The images are dreadful. My scanner has a setting that will remove this pattern, but at the cost of reducing the resolution to little more than 100 dpi, making the scans virtually unusable in anything like a Photobook. Are there any features in Aperture that might help? Or failing that, perhaps in Photoshop?

What you need, is a dedicated image restauration filter that recognized the regular frequency pattern superimposed onto the prints. You can do this in advanced Image processing packages that let you compute the fourier transform of the image and then suppress or attanuate the frequency bands of the artefact with a band-stop filter.
But neither Aperture nor PhotoShop have this kind of filter. In Aperture and Photoshop you can only soften the effect by blurring and then exporting a smaller version of the image.
The algorithm that your scanner uses is probably the best that can be done, even if the resolution is only 100 dpi.
Do you still have the negatives? Scanning the negatives at a high resolution may give you better results.

Motion Blur-Is there a way to increase the blur effects?

I got the motion blur thing down I think but I want to exaggerate on that blue. When I have something moving across the screen, I want it to have more of a blur than it would realisticly be. Actually would like more of a tail like a commet....maybe thats something different entirely?

Im not sure what Im doing wrong, I matched your settings and this is what I have been getting. Its not suppose to be white like that and it doesnt leave any streaks when its animating

Is there any way to modify the photo book size after I have created the book?

I created a photo book then realized it was not the correct size. Is there a way to correct the size or do I have to start from scratch?
I Found the answer after I posted this- CTRL D to duplicate, then choose new theme - Worked like a charm.

Yes. First click on the book in the Projects section and type Command +D (duplicate). Open the book, click on Change Themes and in the next window select the size and type you want.
The duplicate is to have in case you find any text that was removed in the resizing. You can cut and past from the duplicate copy to the original. Also verify that the resized book has all of its text, not text warning indicators and that all photos are there and in the correct order.
Always create a PDF version of the book according to this Apple doucment, iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture, to check for any errors, i.e. typos, missing text, etc., before ordering the book. Keep the pdf file to compare with the printed version when it arrives.
Opps! Answered your question from the title without reading the full body of your post. However, the last 2 paragraphs are worth reviewing.

When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." Is there any way to correct this problem?

When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website using Safari, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." When I save the same PDF file using FireFox it opens up immediately. Is there any way to correct this problem with Safari?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Is there a way to get the correct order from the dependent types of a sche

Hi ,
I have a CT facing the following problem:
When trying to built a SQL script to create all the object types within a schema using the DBMS_METADATA packages.
Did insert in a table the names of the types that will be exported following a concrete order, next loop into the table and call the DBMS_METADATA package for each row.
These type are depedent between them, there are some type attributes calling other types and here the issue
First : try to generate the order by created column of dba_objects and when the generated SQL script is launched a lot of type appearing as incomplete state due to the order isn't correct.
Second : try to insert the table ordering by object_id colums of dba_tables view, it appears incomplete types too.
Currently want to insert the table using a recursive query with connect by against the dba_type_attrs starting with the rows when ATTR_TYPE_NAME is not null (the types that are called by other types), but this way has a issue dificult to resolve: the roots of hierarchy are the rows when ATTR_TYPE_NAME is not null and we've dependencies between roots nodes
The question is is there a way to get the correct order from the dependent types of a schema?
Platform: IBM SP AIX
DB version: 9.2.0.7
Any help will be appreciated .
Thanks in advance.

The xxx_dependencies view should give you the dependencies betwee nthe various types. I would look at something along the lines of:
SELECT object_name, referenced_name
FROM (SELECT o.object_name, d.referenced_name
      FROM user_objects o, user_dependencies d
      WHERE o.object_name = d.name(+) and
            o.object_type = d.type(+) and
            d.referenced_type(+) = 'TYPE' and
            o.object_type = 'TYPE')
START WITH referenced_name IS NULL
CONNECT BY PRIOR object_name = referenced_nameThe outer join between user_objects and user_dependencies is required to generate the names of types which are not dependent on other types, or do not have other types dependent on them.

Previewed book on iPad2 appears smaller on my bookshelf beside the others that I actually purchased. Is this anomaly corrected when a book is actually published, or is there a way of sizing the finished product while building it in iBooks Author?

Many thanks

Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
Keep copies of the originals.
Another option might be to try to install Perian. Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.

My music library seems corrupted. Nearly every song (431 albums) displays "the song ... could not be used because the original file cannot be found". Is there any way to correct this? Please help, thanks, Kelly

Almost my entire itunes music library seems corrupted. Nearly every song (431 albums) displys "the song ... cannot be used because the original file cannot be found". Is there any way to correct this? Please help!
thanks,
kelly61

Select one of the songs in question and right click, then select "Get Info". On the main dialog page you should see where iTunes thinks the file resides. Then use Windows Explorer to see if the file is actually there. If not, find out where your music is stored.If there is not a correlation between iTunes and reality, go into iTunes and delete all of the files which are not found. Then, in iTunes, select File->Add Folder to Library and select where the music is stored. iTunes will re-add all of the music into your library.

Having problems doing an iCloud backup it keeps showing the estimated time thing but the blue load bar hasn't budged in over a half hour is there a way to correct this

You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.
First check that your device is correctly connected to the wifi/internet (settings > wifi)
If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
If this doesn't help, try turning off some items for back up in a pattern to try to establish if your problem is being caused by specific data on your device.
Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

Is there a way to correct an entry in the calculator without starting over?

Is there a way to correct an number entry without starting over when using the calculators?

If you tap the "C" once, it will clear that particular entry, and you can reenter the number. However, if you tap it more than once, it will clear everything.
