N8 display not fully bright. why?

hey all.. did you guys notice that N8's fully bright display is not that much bright as it becomes when it is placed under some bright light ?
why sensor doesnot allow me to make my display that much bright?
even my n73's display is much brighter than my n8's
anyone knws the solution ?

hey there, guys..
i have a similar problem with my n8..
my screen is way too dimmed and i cant change it the way i would like to have it.. first of all, i dont think my display reacts automatically to light/dark environments, its just always dimmed (light sensor in the settings on minimum).. if i go in settings and change the the light sensor to higher/maximum, it stays like that for a while before it, at some point, automatically changes back to minimum... same goes for the light time out ( always changes back to minimum/5 seconds) after a while.. its reaally annoying and i just dont know how to finally change the display settings to brighter, in a way it would stay like that..
any help??

  • 2nd display not as bright as first display

    I have 2 facory video cards installed. They're the same (ATI 5770) each have mini ports and aldo DVI.
    When I boot up each day at work, the second display won't go to full brightness. USBs are both plugged in and I do get the brightness control levers on the preferences for both displays. However, the 2nd display (at 100%) is just not as bright as the primary display. Both are the same 27" displays; each on their own dedicated video cards. I would say it is about 20% less bright.
    Sometimes if I re-boot or reset SMC and monkey with it, I can get it to boot at 100% brightness but lately it's choosing on it's own to be dimmer. Switching USB ports didn't seem to have any effect. I am assuming it's a hardware issue bc I have reset PRAM, SMC, Disk Repair, trashing preferences, and so I'm a little bummed this expensive 27" LED display can't guage it's full brightness.
    Thanks kindly for any input / solutions.

    To post a hopefully helpful follow-up.. over past couple of days I got it to hold up its full brightness. To restore the full brightness of the 2nd display I disconnected / reconnected the display cable a few times until I noticed it was suddenly matching the full brightness of the 1st display. Is it the 2nd video card? The display? The G5 hardware/software? Can't say.
    But after re-booting overnight, it retained the full brightness. Not sure why this happened/s, could be an isolated issue with something slightly defective?? Regardless, maybe this will help someone where both displays are not at full 100% brightness. Replug them a couple times to see if that tricks it back into action.
    Remember, my toggles in the display prefs said both were at 100% yet the 2nd display was clearly 20% darker before I got them back to true 100%.
    In the end, these LED displays are truely magnificent (aside from my isolated issue).

  • Thunderbolt Display : not going bright like it use too.

    Yesterday when I was dimming the Thunderbold display for the evening it didn't dim but rather went straight to pure black like it lost power. I couldn't get it to come back on until I shut down my MBP and unplugged the display. Before finally unplugging it I did the normal testing and I did notice that my USB's were still powered and also my MBP was in dual screen mode, so obviously the display didn't lose all it's power but rather the LED just went out.
    After unplugging the monitor and plugging it back in it works normally other than I feel it's missing a few levels of brightness.
    I've had this monitor for about 4 years but do not plan on getting a new one until a Retina one comes out... fingers have been crossed for the past 2 years for one.
    Any ideas are welcomed. Thanks

    Ok, so I feel pretty stupid and blessed.
    Even after all the shutdown and unplugging from the wall for hours and testing all it took was for the power at my house to shut off and then come back on.
    The monitor is bright once again and I can get back to work.
    I was in the process of ordering the 27in because I was wasting too much time trying to resolve the issue rather than working.
    Thank you Apple :-)

  • Display Not As Bright??

    Hey,
    I got my macbook in like april, and although i haven't noticed it when i've been using it, my brother recently got the same macbook as mine(black) same specs too 2.4ghz, 2g of ram, 250HD and so far. Last night I had them side by side because i was transferring files and i noticed although both of our brightnesses were put the max his way brighter is this normal??
    thanks

    In System Preferences >> Displays there are various options for the way the screen looks. It's possible one of you changed something there.

  • T510 FHD display not bright enough

    i prefer lenovo's matte finish screens--very little glare--great for business purposes.  However, i use the laptop outside a lot and therefore need the brightest possible display, for use in sunlight, where primarily i'm using outlook and Word.  In Feb 2010, i bought a T510 with the FHD (270nit; 95% gamut) screen, and it was perfect for outside--very bright and easy to see.
    then my laptop was stolen! Insurance bought me a new one--same exact T510 (only with outlook 2010 instead of 2007) with same FHD screen.  Problem is that it's definitely not as bright.  i turned up brightness in windows and in thinkadvantage.  also maxed out brightness in the NVidia control panel (which did nothing, since that's really for video playback), and i even have played with the color-saturation brightness and other levels in the intel HD control panel (which increased the display somewhat, but still not as bright as my previous T510--also tends to wash out the colors and makes outlook a bit harder to read).
    also weird: about once a day, on battery, the display dims almost to darkness, then gradually brightens back up in about 20 seconds.  i'm using max performance on all battery settings, so don't why this is happening.  not a big deal, but i thought it might be connected to the above problem.
    i talked to lenovo warranty/service tech, who had no other ideas, other than to return the unit--which i don't want to do, as i've now got this one all set up.
    any suggestions, folks?
    much thanks,
    jeff

  • When links are clicked, they do not fully display the NEW page until the mouse is moved.I know it is a current bug, and appears in no other browsers that I know of.

    It was pointed out that my links do not function correctly on Firefox on a Windows platform. When links are clicked, they do not fully display the NEW page until the mouse is moved! I have now observed it for myself on my fathers PC running Windows XP on Firefox.My PC is on Windows7
    It is the 5 version of Firefox, so I know it is a current bug, and appears in no other browsers that I know of.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4+ you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

    The whole idea to an icloud account is that one user uses it and has all their devices synced together.  Different users need different Apple IDs to create their own icloud accounts.  Note that everyone can still use the same ID for an iTunes account (to share purchases).

    Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
    I'll presume that you can adjust the brightness after bootup. If that display preference is kept in PRAM, it's possible that the PRAM battery is wearing out.
    Here's what Apple says about what's stored in PRAM:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1242
    To test that possibility, turn off "Set date and time automatically" in the Date & Time panel of System Preferences (if it's set), shut down and unplug your Mac, then let it sit for a few minutes. When you reboot it, check the system date and time. If the PRAM battery is failing, those may be set incorrectly.
    iFixit describes replacing the PRAM battery of an iMac G5 as of "moderate" difficulty. See these pages:

    I am using final cut express 4. It seems that any clip over a certain length, say 5 min, does not fully transfer! All shorter clips are perfectly fine. Is there some reason why longer clips are not fully transferred? (a half blue circle shows up on the transfer list, indicating that the clip was not fully transferred. When I check in the capture scratch folder, sure enough the whole clip is not there!
    Is there some glitch in final cut express that only allows short clips to be transferred in full?

    Thanks for the reply. I'll try to answer all the questions (I am a relative novice). Your help is appreciated.
    By the way, the other reply I received suggested the following:
    In Final Cut Express>System Settings>Scratch Discs make sure the Limit Capture/Export File Segement Size To: is not checked.
    I did this and it was already unchecked. So this is not the answer...
    The strange thing is, I have been logging and transferring with FCE for 2 yrs without any problems at all with shorter clips, but have come up against the problem with long clips (over 5 or so min)  the whole time. I got around it by simply making sure I stopped recording after less than 5 min while shooting footage. OR if I accidentally got a long clip, I import into imovie and then import into FCE. Not very streamline and I worry about compressions altering quality!
    I am now trying to import a 20 min and a 17 min clip and it only transfers around 3 minutes of each, I have re-tried several times and it happens repeatedly. The blue circle in the transfer list shows up as a half blue circle instead of full. Clip cuts off after 3 or so minutes.

  • Windows 8 Adobe Reader will not fully open a pdf compiled with several pdf's into one - why?

    Windows 8 Adobe Reader will not fully open a pdf compiled with several pdf's into one - why?

    Hi Michael,
    “AdbeRdr11003_en_US.exe” is the download installed on our CEO’s new Windows 8 laptop.  It is a Dell XPS Re: Windows 8 Adobe Reader will not fully open a pdf compiled with several pdf's into one - why? Dell XPS 13" .  It has a full install Windows 8 Professional for its’ Operating System.
    I’ll attempt to attach the file in question.  The file opens fine on our Windows 7, and XP computers (with  the proper Adobe Reader on each).
    Our CEO says there is a message that comes up saying he needs Adobe Flash.  I’m attempting to find out whether or not he is trying to open it the ‘Metro’ view, or the ‘Desktop’ view – no answer yet.
    If your system strips the attachment, let me know, and I’ll upload the file to an ftp site {if necessary}.

    This ipad does not fully charge any ideas?

    How are you trying to charge it? It's best charged using its supplied power brick plugged into the wall. If you're trying to charge it via USB your results will be mediocre at best since most USB ports don't put out enough power. Same results if you are using an iPhone charger for your iPad.
