New iPad 2 does not look as good as old ipad?

Just got my iPad 2 and first thing I notice is the screen does not look as good as my old iPad.  There's a difference in brightness (dimmer) but that's fine, I just increase the brightness.  However, even after adjusting to approx same level of brightness, the iPad 2 still does not look as good.  For one thing, there is a yellow cast to the iPad 2, whereas the iPad is more neutral.  Also, the iPad 2 feels like it has a haze over it.  Somehow I am very aware of looking through a screen, whereas with the iPad it's just sort of not there.  It's like there's an extra extra layer on the ipad2.  (yes I took the plastic film off, that's not it).
Am I nuts or does anyone else feel this way?

I googled iPad 2 yellow display and it looks like some people have a yellow spot near the edge due to the glue not sufficiently drying.  Mine is different; the whole screen is on the yellow side, so white isn't white but a bit yellow.  If I tilt  it and look at an angle, then white becomes white. 
  It is apparent you look at it side by side with an iPad 1, but maybe if I didn't have one to compare it, I wouldn't know any differently.  I don't know if this is normal for an iPad 2.
I do notice the screen feels different.  The iPad screen feels hard, like glass.  The iPad 2 screen is softer, more like plastic, which I like, except for the yellow thing.

  • TS2972 my new computer does not show shared from my old computer. how long does this take??

    My new computer does not show share from my old computer how long does this take?

    I'm having the same problem. I have my main Library on a WXP machine and a new W7 laptop. My iphone 4 sees the library from the W7 machine, but neither the laptop nor the iphone see the big library on the WXP machine. I have configured firewall settings, tried the network wired and wireless, using same apple id on all devices, restarted itunes on all computers, turned sharing off and on on all computers. Nothing works.

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your iPod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • When I first am looking at my newly uploaded photos in "Library", a box appears near the bottom of the photo that says "loading" (the photo looks good to me), then it is more "faded" and does not look as good.  Is there some setting on that I am not aware

    When I am first looking at my newly uploaded photos in "Library," a box appears near the bottom of the photo that says "Loading".  While it is loading, I usually think the photo looks "good".  After the photo is done loading, it looks more washed out.  Is there some sort of setting that I might have on (or that I need to turn on) so that this does not happen.  I have Lr4.  Thanks.

    Hi Tracy,
    There used to be a way to see if poster was new to the forum.., anyway - welcome to the forum.
    As I was alluding to, biggest differences in initial display are due to:
    * Camera calibration profile.
    * Auto-exposure/contrast settings (for which compensations have been auto-applied in camera, but not in Lightroom).
    So, choose a matching camera calibration profile (whether that's an option or not depends on your camera model - they're available for many but not all models) if you prefer one of them over "Adobe Standard" (the factory default profile).
    Also, your camera covers for underexposure due to non-optimal auto-exposure/contrast setting, Lightroom doesn't, so your options are:
    * turn it off in camera.
    * learn to compensate manually (or automatically via a plugin) in Lightroom.
    Of course, in addition to preferred defaults (alt-click big "reset" button in dev module), come up with some presets which are appropriate for your druthers and type of photography.. e.g. these will compensate Nikon ADL settings:

  • My ibooks on mac and iPad does not look like book shelves.  It use to.  What happened?  HT2519_04-ibooks_bookshelf_003-en.png

    My ibooks on iMac and iPad use to look like "book shelves".  This says shows new ibook should look like bookshelves.  file:///Users/mcdonagh/Desktop/HT2519_04-ibooks_bookshelf_003-en.png
    Also, purchased books prior to new ibook will not download from imac to ipad?  Any reason why? 
    I'm so very very frustrated.

    To post an image you need to use the camera icon above the post :
    The current version of the iBooks app for iOS devices is as shown on the screenshots on this page : iBooks app i.e. a white background :
    And the OS X Mavericks Mac version of the app is similar. Is that what you are seeing ?
    And when you try to sync an ibook from your Mac's iTunes to your iPad what happens ? You've selected the iPad device's Books tab and on that have selected the book(s) that you want to sync to the iPad ?

    Hello JimS19,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If you are having issues accessing your Shared Albums from your iPad (but not from your other devices), you may want to double-check your iCloud Photo Sharing configuration as outlined in the following articles, just to make sure it hasn't changed:

  • Motion Project does not look good in FCP

    I am using FCP 5.0 and Motion2. I made a lower third title graphic in Motion. When I embed the clips back into FCP they look pixalated. They do not look as good as they did originally. Does anyone have a solution?

    Hey,
    Here's the result from last night. The quicktime file is good. It seems that Motion projects in FCP, even from rendered QT files, don't display their true image.
    My output this morning for my project is flawless. Even though the timeline looks horrible.
    The reason this seems to come up in this forum again and again, is probably that Boris 3D, FCP's titles, even LiveType, all display their true clean rendered image in FCP. Motion, however, doesn't seem to do that.
    My guess is that it hangs on to a thumbnail representation for FCP of the rough draught render that motion must create so you can place your motion project in your FCP timeline live. (you know, you can switch back and forth and update a motion project and it updates it in FCP. )
    It just doesn't say that anywhere that I was looking.
    So, if anyone else is creating Motion projects and importing them into Final Cut, be aware that what you see in Final Cut is not what is going to render in your output. It will be full resolution and without the alising that appears in FCP's timeline.
    Whew!

    How are you resetting the device? I presume you're doing something like this?
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button (on the top of the ipad) and Home button together for at least ten seconds until the Apple logo appears.
    What happens after the device resets? Does the Apple logo appear to be replaced by the home screen? Does the iPad respond to any of the buttons or the screen at all?

    Problem - I input a new event into my iPhone calendar and it does not update on my iMac or iPad calendars. I have loaded the latest software on all devices and have switched over to iCloud. Suggestions?

    On the iMac open System Prerferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Calendars then reselect then restart the iMac.
    On the iPad, tap Settings > iCloud
    Switch Calendars off then back on then reset the iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Hopefully the event synced over all the devices.

  • I am looking for a (relatively) cost effective virtual news studio that does not look too cartoonish

    I am looking for a (relatively) cost effective virtual news studio that does not look too cartoonish. Can anyone recommend a website or software they have used?
    Any help much appreciated

    I don't know how you would feel about the quality, because I have never actually used one, but there is usualy a free 7 day trial of Video Blocks and they have 100 virtual sets available. You can download as many as 20 per day with the trial. So you have enough time in a week to get them all. But don't forget to check out the music section for your news intro. And some lower thirds.
    https://www.videoblocks.com/freeclips/
    I have to warn you that I got so wrapped up in the site that when they offered a huge discount I took them up on their offer. IIRC it was around $100 for one year instead of ten times that much.
