Issue with the brightness slider (numeric value possible?)
As a retoucher I am supposed to keep accurate color management. I create my ICC Monitor profiles with an X-Rites i1XT meter. The screen calibration includes a brightness adjustment to meet a desired luminosity value (I choose to work on a 120cd/m level). My issue is that apples "brightness slider" wont define a value or percentage which I could associate with my current ICC profile. If I would for instance watch a movie in full brightness I could never get back to my previous brightness settings in order to maintain my desired color accuracy!
is there a way to read out or dial in a "brightness value" (maybe trough a script?)
does anyone know about an external tool that could help me (without interfering the ICCs)
THX a lot,
TIM
1. This is a user to user forum. To send Apple your requests, use the Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback link.
2. The brightness slider sets an electrical level for screen brightness, but the actual brightness depends on the age of the screen & other components, previous brightness level, manufacturing variations, etc. For this reason, even if you set the level to the same indicated value each time, this does not guarantee the actual brightness will remain the same, nor can you calibrate indicated values directly in cd/sqm over long periods of time. You will still periodically have to use the calibrator.
3. You can use an Applescript to set the electrical level to a repeatable numeric value (although because of #2 above, this will not guarantee a repeatable actual screen brightness). See Any ideas on adjusting monitor brightness via AppleScript? for a suggested script. Note that you will need to change "Color LCD" in that script to whatever name your System Preferences > Displays > Display tab shows & change "0.8" to whatever brightness level you want (with 0 being darkest & 1 being brightest). You must also have GUI scripting enabled.
A more elaborate version of the script could save the current value for later recall or set different levels for different apps. For help with this, post in the AppleScript forum.

Our iMac isn't loading a specific website (we get a message saying it can't connect to that specific server), regardless of browser (I've tried it in Chrome, Safari, and Firefox). However, the same website, which is for a major medical provider, loads without any issue on our other computers on the same wireless network. Is it an issue with the iMac's settings? All other websites seem to be loading without issue on the iMac.

Possibly. Make sure you are not using a proxy server. Look in Safari Preferences > Advanced > Proxies > "Change Settings..." This will take you to the applicable Network Preferences. Make sure that nothing is selected in the "select a protocol to configure" list. It should look like this:
Still not working?
Locate your Terminal app. It is in your Utilities folder. Open Terminal.
In Terminal, copy (triple-click) and paste the following line:
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item'
This will produce a list of all your account login items.
While you are in Terminal, copy (triple-click) and paste the following line:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
This will produce a list of all non-Apple kernel extensions. There will be few, if any.

I have created a PDF form with multiple drop downs, all with the same drop down values. When I select a value from 1 of the drop down fields, it replicates in all of the others - which I do not want. Can I fix this?
I'm fairly new to this, but I think it has to do with the way you have the drop downs named. Did you copy one then keep pasting it in each field? If so, that is the problem. You should rename each one with a different number: Dropdown1, Dropdown2, etc. I think that might solve the issue.

Is there a recommended limit on the number of custom sections and the cells per table so that there are no performance issues with the UI?
Thanks Kelly,
The answers would be the following:
1200 cells per custom section (NEW COUNT), and up to 30 custom sections per spec.
Assuming all will be populated, and this would apply to all final material specs in the system which could be ~25% of all material specs.
The cells will be numeric, free text, drop downs, and some calculated numeric.
Are we reaching the limits for UI performance?

Issue with the pVal.BeforeAction in Item_Pressed event
Hi all,
I am facing an issue with the <b>pVal.BeforeAction</b> in the <b>Item Pressed event</b>.
In delivery notes, When I press the Add button, i am getting the control, which is passing through both of the if blocks [<b>if (pval.BeforeAction=True)</b>block and <b> if(pVal.BeforeAction=False)</b>].
But
When I try the delivery using <b>Pick and Pack Manager</b> form with in the Inventory Menu, I am getting the same Delivery form in Add Mode. When I click the Add button in the form, the control is passing through the <b>if(pCal.BeforeAction=true)</b> block successfully, but after that, the form closes and it never comes to the <b>if(pVal.BeforeAction=false)</b> block.
I need to run the codes, what i have written in the second if block, in this case also.
Is it possible?
Please help me to solve this issues.Hi,
It's a known bug. As Rasmus said try the SBO2005A SP01 FormDataAdd Event.

Hi All,
Need some urgent help..
Iam facing some issue with the Function Module 'SKWF_FIND_BY_QUERY' in a BW ECC6.0 system.
As shown below, in the function module, the Table IT_PROPERTIES_RESULT gets populated with some values based on inputs like IT_CLASSES, IT_QUERY, and L.
This updation of IT_PROPERTIES_RESULT table is happening for some of the services sent through IT_QUERY and is not getting populated for some.
call function 'SKWF_FIND_BY_QUERY

CONNECTION_SPACE =
OBJ_TYPE = 'L'
PTYPE =
X_STRICT =
IMPORTING
ERROR =

CLASSES = IT_CLASSES
QUERIES = IT_QUERY
RESULT_OBJECTS = IT_LOIO
PROPERTIES_REQUEST = PROPERTIES_RESULT = IT_PROPERTIES_RESULT.
The values are as follows:-
Values getting populated in IT_CLASSES BW_LO_TRAN Values getting populated in IT_QUERY 1) BW_QUERY, 2) /BIC/ZSERVICE
I would like to know whether any Standard Customizing BW transaction is present that is maintaining IT_PROPERTIES_RESULT table properties and fetching through this Function Module.
Also, suggest how this issue can be resolved
Thanks & Regards,

Captivate 5.5 Question: We seem to be having an issue with the screen capture piece not recording "everything".
We're running 5.5 as an administrator on Windows 7 and my co-worker is trying to capture a webinar (GoToMeeting) with Captivate and it is not recording anything in the GTM window, except the last slide. Anyone have this problem or know a fix? Not much is mentioned in the Adobe forums.Captivate simply doesn't 'hear' some screen events on certain applications and you just need to resort to doing manual captures at these points.
I usually set up my manual capture button to be F2 so that I can hit it with my left hand while my right hand is on the mouse navigating through the task. -
Re : Issue with the column display in Bex reports
Hello Gurus,
I have an issue with the reports in Bex, this is a bit confusing scenario I would try to explain in more details. A query was already built for monthly Report in Sales and Billing for which the variable were Calender month/year range 1 (mandatory), range 2 range 3 range 4. These 4 variable were created and moved to column rows in query.
Later the user wanted the copy of same report but he wanted the variables to be Calender date range 1 (mandatory), range 2, range 3 , range 4. I have created them with 0calenderday as reference and moved to the columns.
for the monthly report text variables were already existing for the Calender month/ year, but for the daily report text variable were not existing for Dates. I have created a text variable for the date in the following way processing by
" replacement path" and reference characteristic as 0calday and in the replacement path tab.. in replace variable the selection is info object, the next option Replace with " External charactersitic value key " .
By creating this text variable the dates were being displayed in the colum header like 11/01/2013 - 11/30/2013 which satisfies the requirement.
But the user wanted to see the report same like monthly report when the mandatory variable Calender year/ month is selected, the rest of the columns range 2, range 3, range 4 are displayed as unassigned in the report. but coming back to the daily report when the user is giving the Calender date rage 1, he is finding that Calender date range 2, range 3, range 4 are also being displayed with values. He want to see the Calender date range 2,3,4 as unassigned in the report just like monthly. Please find the images attached.
As Calender month/ year is predefined, if the calender range values are not given it would show up as not assigned default. I have created a separate text variable for Calender day, I believe that could be the reason rest of the columns are not showing up as unassigned. The user want to see them as unassigned like monthly report columns.
I tried different ways changing the text variables but I could not change the display of the columns in Calender date report by the option - replace with ----> External characteristic value key, key, label. when I chose the option external characteristic value then the date was showing up in the text of the column when report is run ( Please find the image for the reference in the attachment ). . I request you to help me out in this. Please find the images of the variables and output below.Anshu,
Thank you very much for above code I made minor changes to the code that finally worked. I created 4 different text variables needed for Calender date range 1, 2 ,3 ,4. Please find the code below for the text variable that worked in the system
WHEN 'ZTEXT_CAL1'.
READ TABLE I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO loc_var_range
WITH KEY VNAM = 'ZCALDATE1'.
IF loc_var_range-LOW = '#'.
dt_low = 'Not Assigned'.
dt_high = 'Not Assigned'.
CONCATENATE dt_low '-' dt_high INTO l_s_range-low.
ELSE.
CONCATENATE loc_var_range-low+4(2) '/' loc_var_range-low+6(2) '/' loc_var_range-low+0(4) into dt_low.
CONCATENATE loc_var_range-high+4(2) '/' loc_var_range-high+6(2) '/' loc_var_range-high+0(4) into dt_high.
CONCATENATE dt_low '-' dt_high INTO l_s_range-low.
ENDIF.

Did you check with Verizon to make sure that your destination country would allow the device you have to connect?

All the Characteristics or Nodes are same as before. We have issue with the Key Figure and Calculated Key Figure.
There is no pattern followed in the variation of the totals.Please help; let me know if you need more information.Hi.
Please check if ll the data is rolled up in the aggregates. Also check the consistency of aggregates from RSRV.

10.4.11 Has Apple addressed/fixed issues with the latest update to Tiger?
Like many of you, I installed the 10.4.11 update last weekend with disastrous results. I eventually had to Archive and Install and my machine seems to be recovered. Has anybody had this problem and gone on to try the update a second time with better results ?? Any words of wisdom?? or had some sort of feedback from Apple to indicate they have or are going to resolve the problems with this update.
+I just posted this on the thread that seemed geared to those who "had success" (many more than half had issues) with the recent update after pi55ing and moaning due to crashing several times while trying to post there. Subsequently I found this thread and a bit of absoultion. I have eliminated the links, thinking them redundant but they are posted to that thread.+

A little story, when I first tried to install Jaguar on my then Beige (Yeah, remember them!) G3 MT, it took me a full six months to get that "Darn Cat" in that house! Oh, how I sweated and swore, you talk about "legacy", I waved every "dead chicken" that was suggested to no avail. Ended up that before I bought the unit someone had switched out the CD/ROM for one from one year later, still Apple issue, mind you. I sent to OpAmp and got an original and "The Cat" slid in as quick as grease through a goose. That's how tightly wound Apple was and still is in many ways and is why they stopped the clones. This was one of a slew of many little things you had to get used to in "Mac Land".
One other small thing you used to do a "clean install", you still can, but under OS 9, after you were satisfied (Conflict Catcher made things ever so easy!) all was peachy, you could simply trash your Previous System Folder and get back some valuable disk space. Well not to long after my success with the install of Jaguar and still not understanding OS X at all, I was still working mainly in OS 9, I did a Clean Install on my OS X, horsed around with settings which was difficult without Conflict Catcher and bravely trashed my Prev Sys Folder. Don't ever, EVER do that. What is a seemingly empty shell but for redundant Apps and meaningless abbreviations, is indeed a necessary if gigabyte eating Albatross you are doomed to carry!
My point with these two parables is that we are creatures of trust and habit, living on borrowed time. We have been blessed with a computer system that is virtually foolproof given certain caveats, caveats if adhered to even marginally would guarantee success. I my self have gotten into some very bad habits of late and think that this may be the cause of my computers malaise.
Drop to your knees and be grateful you don't have a PC (shudder!)! Yes Virginia, there is an Insanity Clause! I just installed WinXP on an Intel Mac, and after it was over all I wanted was a stiff drink and a shower!

ipod nano 7th generation having issues with the UI. Out of box everything worked great. Once I snyc the device and it finished, the UI becomes unuesable. You have to double tap every icon in order to open music, videos, etc. I cannot swipe to the second page of icons, black box appears around an icon and then switches to a different one anytime I swipe. A box even appears around the time and battery power. iPod & iTunes are both updated. What is the FIX on this issue?
I had this problem as well. This is what I found by searching online. I tried the fix on my nano 7th gen and it worked. I hope this helps you. Make sure to use two fingers for sliding and double-click the icons to get into settings. Good luck.
It would seem that Voiceover has been enabled on your iPod Nano. The following article contains information regarding Voiceover, and how to disable it once it's been enabled.
iPod nano (6th generation and later): How to use VoiceOver
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4317
To turn off VoiceOver on iPod nano using VoiceOver gestures
From the Home Screen, swipe right or left with two fingers until you see or hear "Page 2 of 2" on iPod nano (7th generation) or "Settings" on iPod (6th generation).
If the icons have been rearranged, or if there are more than four Home screens, you may hear something different.
Slide one finger around the screen until you hear Settings.
Double-tap to open Settings.
Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear General, then double- tap.
Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear Accessibility, then double-tap.
Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear VoiceOver, then double-tap.
Double-tap when you hear "VoiceOver switch button on."
You'll hear "VoiceOver off" to confirm the setting. Now you can use standard gestures to control iPod nano.
Note: You can also turn off VoiceOver by resetting your iPod. -
Hi All,
I tried to search through the community, but with the sheer volume of posts, I didn't find anything that seemed like the same issue.
My iPad 4 just started having issues with the volume. On either Bluetooth or the iPad Speaker, anything I'm watching or listening to drops the sound to just barely hearing it and then, about 2 seconds later, it comes back.
I haven't tried wired ear phones, but I am sure they'll be the same way.
It's very random, but consistent enough to happen several times per day.
Thanks for any help that anyone can provide.
I have restarted it and also did a Hard Reboot and it didn't help.
Thanks Again,
Scott P.Well there you go, when you advertise it just be sure to say that you can't even see the scratches at half brightness and see how it goes.
Of course you are saying you want $500 for one with many scratches on the screen, has been dropped, but the scratches aren't visible at half brightness, and has no warranty. Or I can buy a refurbished iPad 4 WiFi 32 GB directly from Apple with no scratches and a one year warranty for $499. http://store.apple.com/us/product/FD514LL/A/refurbished-ipad-with-retina-display -wi-fi-32gb-white-4th-generation
Why would I buy yours?
I wouldn't pay more than $300 for a used model with your specs in perfect condition. But yours is far from perfect. I think your high point is $250 which is why I said 50%. -
Performance issue with the Select query
Hi,
I have an issue with the performance with a seclet query.
In table AFRU - AUFNR is not a key field.
So i had selected the low and high values into s_reuck and used it in Where condition.
Still i have an issue with the Performance.
SELECT SINGLE RUECK

AUFNR
STOKZ
STZHL
FROM AFRU INTO table t_AFRU
FOR ALL ENTRIES IN T_ZSCPRT100
WHERE RUECK IN S_RUECK AND
AUFNR = T_ZSCPRT100-AUFNR AND
STOKZ = SPACE AND
STZHL = 0.
I had also cheked by createing an index for AUFNR in the table AFRU...it does not help.
Is there anyway that we can declare Key field while declaring the Internal table....?
ANy suggestions to fix the performance issue is apprecaited!

Using AUFNR, get AUFPL from AFKO
Using AUFPL, get RUECK from AFVC
Using RUEKC, read AFRU
In other words, one select joining AFKO <-> AFVC <-> AFRU should get what you want.
This is my select query, would you want me to write another select query to meet this criteria..
From AUFNR> I will get AUFPL from AFKO> BAsed on AUFPL I will get RUECK, based on RUEKC i need to read AFRU..but i need to select few field from AFRu based on AUFNR....
ANy suggestions wil be appreciated!
