Lightroom not friendly to non-standard color themes

In WindowsXP with the theme appended below quite a few textboxes have invisible text (i.e. black on black). This is particularly true of the export dialog.
Lightroom should either respect the Windows color theme (recommended) or enforce its fore/back color combinations.

L550/010 USB port not working properly, non-standard USB ports

I wondering if anyone can shed some light on this strange problem I'm having with my laptop USB ports.
Background.
I have a USB device (CED-M2 USB Chronograph). The device comes with Windows 7 software to upload fps readings.
The CED has a calculator style keyboard - so you can lookup data without the laptop.
My L550 PSLWSA-01000Q, is running Windows 7 professional.
Problem.
When I connect the CED into the USB port the buttons on the CED no longer operate, As soon as the USB lead is disconnected the buttons work. Uploading the data doesn't work either. The buttons freeze occurs as soon as I plug into a powered USB port (even if user not logged into Windows and programs are not running).
I've installed the upload program onto two PC's at home (Vista Home and Windows 7 Home) and both PC's connect to the CED and upload fine. Furthermore, the CED push buttons works perfectly! So, this leads me to think that the hardware or signals from the laptop USB ports is not standard.
I've tried all three laptop ports (e-Sata/USB and normal USB ports), same problem.
Any ideas what could be causing this problem?

Hi Jerry
Firstly, thanks for repsonding.
All L550/010 USB ports appear to work well on other devices (Sierra Wirless card, HP optical mouse, HTC phone), doesn't matter which port (USB, Esata/USB) all works fine with these units.
I've tried connecting the Chrono via a USB 4 port expander - same problem, no comms, chrono buttons locks up. Connect to Home PC running Vista Home and Windows 7 Home and works fine 9 - just can't take those to the range.
The Chrono unit is self powered (9V Alkaline) and it's new, so USB supplied 5V is not a problem.
The buttons seize whenever the laptop is powered up. Also, if the chono unit is powered down, connecting the USB lead to the laptop turns it on (wakes up). This wake up functions on both home desktop PC's and laptop (good), however, with the laptop I can't power down the Chrono as the buttons don't work.
Whilst laptop connected, and rebooting the Laptop, the Chrono buttons will work just before the Press F2 for setup screen comes up - so could it be electrical.
I've downloaded the latest BIOS from Toshiba and Intel chipset too - no change.
I got the unit to connect once tonight - when I plugged my mouse in at the same time - USB configured for mouse, and whilst doing that the Chrono worked. Once mouse working, Chrono stopped. Can't repeat results.

1.0.1 is an older version of Java Web Start, which has since seen versions 1.2, 1.4.2, and now 1.5.
This is probably a bug in the old (1.0.1) version of Java Web Start. Please try with a newer version.

Non-standard aspect ratio

Currently, I am using iMovie '09 (version 8.0.6) and iMovie HD 6.0.4.
With both programs, I failed to import a quicktime movie that has aspect ratio 0.83 (1030:1240)
without getting a distorted output.
(I did read the help and I also googled a lot, to no avail. I also UNchecked the box 'automatic letterboxing', but it did not have any effect.)
My question now is: would the current versions of iMovie / HD allow me to import & edit such non-standard aspect ratio movies?
Or do I need some other program to do that?
If so, can you recommend something?
(I only need some basic editing capabilities such as clipping, adding audio tracks, titles, a few simple effects, etc.)
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards,
Gabriel.

no version of iM did or do support non-standard video.
the obsolote FC/pro supported 'free' aspect ratios.
the actual FCPX only with a trick.
not sure, but I think Adobe Premiere (full version, not elements) supports non-standards too.
for just trimming and perhaps 'titles', Quicktime7Pro would do it - but has no effects, transitions etc. plus it is very un-convenient, compared to any designated editor.app

Kuler (Color themes) are not loading any schemes, except my own.

Kuler (Color themes) both are not loading any schemes, except my own. Any suggestions?
I can't search, can't load anything. It's empty. To create my own scheme I had to go across a bit. It's not exporting anything with Opera 12, so I had to catch the link and open it in other browser. That's how I saved my palette, and I can load it. But that's all I can do with Color themes.

Hi Monika,
What is the reason that it is possible to search for (explore) color themes from within the Color Themes panel in InDesign and Photoshop, but not in Illustrator? Seems a bit odd…
Cheers,
Marinka

Libreoffice 4 does not use KDE4 color theme

So, I use libreoffice 4 (since last upgrade) and kde4.
I also have libreoffice-kde4 installed. Up until now libreoffice was set to use my general color theme (a dark one).
Libreoffice 4 is not doing that, instead I get a white document background. I can change that through Tools> Options> Appearence of course, but then I get a limited selection of colors, and a fixed document background (does not follow any change of system color theme). All threads I saw while searching for a solution refer to older versions of libreoffice.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I am running KDE + libreoffice-fresh and it is working fine. Changing the fonts with systemsettings -> application appearance -> fonts works for libreoffice-fresh. No need to use kde-gtk-config.
Here is an example of how libreoffice looks on my system:

Color Themes not working

Hello, I cannot access my Color Themes in Illustrator CC 2014 when I am the admin user on my Mac. However I can see Color Themes in InDesign. And also when I logon to the Mac as Guest I do see the Color Themes in Illustrator. What do I need to do to see the Color Themes in Illustrator when I am the Admin user?
I have
synced everything
signed out and signed back into my Adobe CC account
uninstalled, reinstalled Illustrator
uninstalled, reinstalled Adobe CC desktop manager
restarted the computer
reset the network
tried a different network
MacBookAir11, 1.3 GHz i5, 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3
OSX 10.10.1 yosemite
No firewall
Adobe CC (2014)

You're not alone!
I'm having same problem and its very annoying. Empty colour theme window says no themes available and if I try and refresh/resync eventual message says unable to connect to adobe color website.
All fine in Ps and Id.
I've tried all obvious reboot sign in/out, but no joy.

GC not discovering DB listener as it's in a non standard location

Hi all,
I have installed a management agent on one of my servers and have launched GC. I can see the host and a number of targets, but I cannot see the database on that server, or the databaser listener. This I think is because the listener.ora file for it is in a non standard place. it is in the specified TNS_ADMIN directory. How do I tell Grid Control to look in there for the listener rather than the usual Oracle home location?
This is Grid Contorl 10.2.0.3, trying to discover a 10.2.0.3 database on a Solaris Sparc server.
Many thanks,
Paula

Hi,
I can't find a screen labelled Agents within Grid Control. I can see Hosts, Databases, Application Servers, Web Applications, Services, Systems, Groups, All Targets.
The tabs above that read Home, Targets, Deployments, Alertsm Compliance, Jobs, and Reports.
I have tried to discover the database listener I need but it comes back with none, and does not give me an option to add one manually on that screen.
Can you please point me in the right direction?
Thank you very much,
Paula

make sure your device has not blocked your friends number. since you are able to receive sms from others contacts you or your friend can have the issue investgated by both your netwrok providers

Mail.app does not like ssl on non-standard port

Simple set up with imaps via ssh tunnel on another machine.
I am connecting via a tunnel and expect to have certificate errors on connection.
Connecting from mail.app with the server on port 10933 does not work. Thunderbird works with the same configuration.
Changing only the port number on the tunnel machine (to 993) then Mail.app performs as expected. No difference to Thunderbird.

Sorry, this is not a solution, but I had the same problem and did extensive troubleshooting on it today. It seems that if the port# is non-standard, Mail will connect in the clear, regardless whether the SSL box is checked.
I was trying to run an SSL-enabled IMAP server (dovecot) on port 1009. I verified that Mail was connecting to that port using netstat. However, it did not succeed in connecting, it reported a timeout error. Yet I can connect manually with openssl s_client.
Next I tried running the non-SSL IMAP server on the same port, WITHOUT changing any of the Mail settings: still port 1009, SSL box checked. This time it did connect properly.
Must be a bug in Mail.app

'owa_util.get_cgi_env does not return non-standard headers

'owa_util.get_cgi_env does not return non-standard headers in embedded PL/SQL gateway even when the DAD attribute "cgi-environment-list" is set to pass
such headers.
Is this information correct?

Hi,
I came across the same problem today, my current understanding of the problem confirms your suspects, but I am still investigating the matter.
If you made some progress on this, please share your thoughts.

In FireFox 9, loading secure web pages running on non-standard ports works just fine. In FireFox 10, those same pages do not load and a "The connection was reset" message is displayed.

How can this be fixed so functionality returns as per FF9 and below?
This occurs on any secured website running on a non-standard port, with FF10.

< X-Post from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/917315#answer-315144 >
I don't think this is restricted to Firefox. I've noted this behaviour with IE9, Firefox 10.0.2, Opera Mobile (on my phone) and Chrome(latest version) with my Linksys E3000 router (I access it from https://<IP>) and my 3ware RAID card management suite, 3DM2 (I access it from https://localhost:888 ).
Notably, the only thing amiss that I've been able to see in the certificates (I'm no expert) is that the one from Linksys has issue and expiry dates in 1969 and 1970 respectively. However, I don't think this is the cause since 3DM2 has proper looking issue dates and has the identical problem.
Coincidentally, I noticed this happening after a fresh reinstall of Windows 7 x64 with virtually nothing installed on it (FF, Office 2007), so I don't think it's something wrong with the other software on the machine.

Moving my non standard library

Dear friends,
I hope you'll be patient enough to bear with my question.
My music files are all stored on my iMac internal disk in a /Users/Bob/Music/rja directory with its own internal artist/album/tracks structure.
In my iTunes Preferences->Advanced, my music library is set to /Users/Bob/Music/rja2014 and NEITHER keep itunes organized nor copy files to iTunes media folder are checked.
Everything works beautifully, my metadata is now in good shape, artwork etc.
I am now in the need of moving this music to my external firewire storage and I am not sure how to go about it because of this non standard setup.
Any guidance would be receive with gratitude !
OS is Mavericks and iTunes is 11.1.5 (5)
Thank you in advance.
Robert

Because you manually manage music it won't be easy. If you let iTunes manage your media then you could use iTunes' consolidate feature to move your files to a different drive and have it keep track of them. If you were moving them to the same drive and manually manage then iTunes will keep track of them. Moving them to a different drive means all your links will break and thrre's no way to stop it really. "Moving" to a different drive is really copying and deleting.
Two options. One is to copy them to a different drive, then re-add them to a new iTunes library. Yes, yes, I hear you fuss, but for some who only have smart playlists and don't care about date added and ratings it works perfectly fine. The smart playlists repopulate everything automatically and as long as you use tagged media most of the metadata travels with the files.
Another is to move the files, then use a text editor to search and replace the location information for all the tracks in the .xml version of the library file. Use the .xml version to generate a new previous library with the changed information. You will still lose some information because the .xml does not 100% duplicate information stored in the .itl file and only iTunes can open that. If there is absolutely mission-critical information, using Applescripts you can try storing it in some non-standard location such as the comment field, then try to re-create things. E.g. Make a playlist with all your 5-star ratings files, copy the playlist over to the new library, then use that playlist as a basis for assigning 5 stars to all the items in playlist in the new library.

NIKON D5000 NEF - Lightroom 2.6 and PSE show colors quite differently from what Nikon Software show

With my Nikon D5000 DSLR camera, I took recently photos from small blue flowers. I had set-up my Nikon D5000 to create for every photo both a NEF File and a JPEG File (and had set my camera to use Automatic While Balance).
I noticed that for NEF Files Lightroom 2.6 (and also PSE 7, that uses internally Camera RAW ) shows me the blue colors of the flowers quite differently from what I see with PSE for the jpeg file. It is my impression, that it is in the Jpeg files, that the blue color is close to the reality; and that it is with the NEF Files that Lightroom and PSE show a blue color that is quite different from the reality.
I also looked at the photo files with the NIKON "View Nx" 1.3.0 Software that came with my camera. With "View Nx" the blue colors (both with the NEF file and the Jpeg File) are very vlose that what i see with PSE 7 in the jpeg file (and quite different from what I see with LR and PSE for the .NEF File).
I mentioned this problem to Nikon Support. They suggested, that Nikon Software and Adobe software use different algorithms; and that the Nikon algorithms are better/closer adapted to the Nikon cameras than the more generalized Adobe algorithms that need to support a very large number of cameras.
But ....it is Lightroom that i wish to use to process my NEF Files and PSE that I wish to use to organize my Photos. Can a LR/Camera-RAW expert help me? I would like to find a solution to see with LR and with PSE in my D5000 NEF Photo Files blue colors that are close to the reality and close to what Nikon Software shows me on my PC. Please notice that I am very far away from being a professional and that i will probably not understand complicated explanations.
Thanks a lot in advance.
An additional note, that is perhaps not relevant: I used LR to convert my NEF File into a JPEG File format and looked at the blue in the result. It looks the same as what LR and PSE show me for the .NEF File (and looks different from the jpeg file crreated by the NIKON camera).

EJ and Jim
Thank You very much for your useful feedback.
I realize, that as a neophit I am an exot among the community of photo-experts and photo-professionals addressed by LR. Therefore the wish that I will now express is perhaps inadequate. But since it is gently, that i express this wish, I am probably allowed to do so......
My wish for a future version of LR, is that LR comes out of the box with a "reasonable" interpretation of the RAW images of most important/widespread modern cameras....without requiring that non-experts like me gets confronted from the very beginning with the need to develop their own default settings.
For this wish, I will formulate a Feature Request.
You might wonder, why a non-expert like me is interested in LR instead of using those Photo-Editing Software (e.g. PSE) that are supposed to address the need of non-experts. Well..... I am coming from the PSE world. I am reasolnably happy with the PSE Organizer....but I hate the complex, inefficient, unfriendli "user-interface" (experts will probably tell: workflow-interface?) of the PSE Editor. Its really a last-century Software. LR is so much more friendly, even for non-experts...within the Library Module, i do not need to switch back and forth between one dialogue-window for each type of change.... nearly all what i need is in that one right-hand pane of the Library module.
I honestly believe, that Adobe should take a serious look at promoting/marketing LR also to the audience of non-experts. That would be a good and attractive additional marketing opportunity for LR.
