My new 7D gets very dark pics indoors when using "automatic" settings. Whats wrong?

My new Canon 7D gets very dark pics indoors when everything is set on "Automatic".  So did my 60D, which i traded in for the 7D because of disappointing dark pics when on "Automatic".  This happens with the built-in flash, and also with my 430EX II external flash.
What am I doing wrong?  I would like to make it work properly on "Automatic".
Thanks,
Art

Thanks for your responses!  I'm not using a flash.  The lighting is sufficient for even my iPhone4 to capture images with no flash, but the 6D's images are dark.
Oh, sorry, I misunderstood.  That must be your exposure compensation.  Is it centered?

  • Thin flickering white line at the very top of screen when using mail

    using an imac 27 inch, new...
    there is a thin flickering white line at the very top of screen when using mail.
    usually when sending a mail or when the cursor moves over a link ( in apple mail )
    the flickering line is just under the very top menu bar which has the date on etc...
    anyone else had this or know how to fix it?
    cheers

    I am facing the same problem. In fact mac book pro 13 retina was in the 14 day period so I got it retuned today, after directions from the apple telephone support. However, the new machine I got in exchange has the same problem or flickering line under the menu tab.
    The only relief it seems is the fact that it's not a hardware problem probably. I also think so because if I do a full screen which essentially means there is no menu bar, then there is no flickering white line.
    Hope apple fixes this. Sad to notice this drop in apple quality, and yet not fixed.

  • MacBook screen randomly gets very dark

    My MacBook is from 2007, so it is old and has its problems. I am currently in college and use my iPad primarily for school work. Thank God I got this iPad a few weeks ago because I did not know my computer would have such a huge problem!  When I turned it on one day, it was all normal, and randomly the screen got so dark, it looked like the computer had shut down on me. I knew it was still turned on though because the little light was indicating that it was on and it was still making the cd drive/booting up sounds.  After a while, I noticed that the screen just went very very dim, because I could still slightly see the webpage I was on.  Turning up the brightness of the screen did nothing to help, same with restarting the computer. Sometimes the screen would come back to the normal brightness, until I would go to do something on the internet and it would go very dark again.  It's so unpredictable, I don't even want to deal with it anymore.  But there are some things for school I just need my laptop for rather than my iPad and I really need some help trying to fix it!!  I seriously cannot afford to buy a new MacBook right now, so I need to get this dim screen fixed so this computer can last me the rest of the semester.

    It sounds like screen is failing. There is no fix if this is the problem.

    Hello,
    We have checked and show no record of your company or this part being purchased from us, so this is not something that we can offer support.
    I do not know of an integrator in your area but you should contact a local one that could possibly help you trouble-shoot any questions you have on this unit.

    192.168.10.1 for it to see the controller. So now that it is connecting to
    the controller, it keeps saying that the drives are all disabled. I have
    one drive connected to the controller in the Axis 0 port.

    Hi thanks for the reply.  Yes I have used the ACR view to specify which inputs to use before.  I used input 0 for the positive limit, input 1 for the negative limit, and input 2 for the home switch.  However, when using ACR view the switch kept displaying that the switch had been tripped when nothing was pressing against it.  I would also try pressing on the mechanical switch to see at least if the value would change but to no avail.

  • I got my iphone 5 Last christmas, all seem to be well then it started connecting a disconecting from the charger and then suddenly stopped so i bought a new charger, it would for a bit then stopped working again whats wrong?

    I Got my iphone 5 last christmas, and then a couple of months after the charger started to conect and disconect, i thought at first it was just the cord so i bought a new one but then it happened again, from this day i have bought 6 iphone 5 chargers and now my 7th and its rarely working whats wrong? and also my sleep wake button isnt working properly?  PLEASe HELP !

    If you are getting Siri when you double tap, then your home button must be sticking. Siri comes up when you hold the home button. Try tapping quickly twice. When that happens, the multi-tasking list comes up and you will see the app icon and then a thumbnail, or reduced size view of the app above it. You put your finger on that thumbnail and swipe upwards with your finger.
    For that issue, you might want to do a reset of the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. This will not affect your data.
    To be honest, your novel is a little difficult to read, and I think you put too much information in there, and a lot of it is unnecessary. Be to the point and just add information necessary to understand the issue.

  • Crystal 2011 getting Logon failed IM004 error when using ODBC (RDO)

    I just installed Crystal Reports 2011 on Windows 7 Ultimate SP1.  Sporadically, but way too often (I would estimate about 60% of the time), when I go to set up an ODBC (RDO) connection or refresh an existing report and enter the password, I get the following error:
    Logon failed.
    Details: IM004:[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_Handle_ENV failed
    Other times, it just works, with no changed made.  It seems to work slightly more often when using the SQL Server driver (the one for SQL 2000) as opposed to the SQL Native Client or SQL Server Native Client 10.0 drivers.  But not often enough for that to be the solution.
    I have tested this with a locally installed SQL Server (on the same machine as Crystal Reports) and remote SQL Servers, with SQL 2000, 2005 and 2008.  Same results.
    I have Crystal Reports 2008 installed on the same machine and have not once had this problem.  I have tried using the same ODBC connections I already had from Crystal 2008 with Crystal 2011 and also to create new ones, same results either way.
    Is this a known issue, or is there a switch/setting I need to change to make this work consistently?  I am especially puzzled by the fact that it seems random, I have not been able to find any pattern at all.

    Hi Victoria,
    MS SQL Server 2008 has a client install now, the MDAC/WDAC doesn't install it as MS used to do with all of their OS's. CR also had to update the use of SQL Server 2008 to include the SQLNCLI10 client engine.
    I suggest, if you have not already, install the Native 10 client from either the SQL Server CD or you can download the MSI from MS's site and only use the Native 10 driver.
    MS kind of dropped ODBC and moved to OLE DB. The native client actually uses the OLE DB driver so using ODBC just puts another layer on top of OLE DB anyways. It's more convenient to use ODBC for deploying applications but it can affect performance.
    Anyways, as noted, CR 2011 is still in Ramp up mode so this issue may have been tracked. If not though you can purchase a support case, if it's a bug then you'll get a refund, if it's a limitation in MS then no refund.
    There is [SP 1 for CR 2011|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100007683092011E/cr2011sp1.exe] - http://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm
    Seems to be a problem with that page right now so try again later... and apply SP 1 or wait until it goes GA and test again. If it's still an issue then you can log a case.
    Firefox just got updated and it's failing, IE works though...
    Thanks again

It worked perfectly fine with my previous 2wire wireless modem
    please help!

    Did you reset the router after you updated router's firmware? Its always recommended to perform a reset after firmware upgrade on the router.
