New T530 keeps auto adjusting brigthness. ARRRGGH!! Help!

I've got a new T530 that is royally pissing me off with this constant auto adjust brigthness setting I cannot seem to kill, no matter where I dig into the Lenovo Power control center or built in Win 7 enterprise power settings. I've got the Nvidia NVS 5400m GPU NOT the Intel HD4000.
How do I turn this thing off????

Heh, had the same problem with our L430 (also Win7 Enterprise although 32-bit). But, we use Intel graphics, so we turned off power saving options in Intel Control Panel and set "graphics" in Lenovo Power Manager to "Maximum performance". Since then, the problem disappeared. Does Nvidia have something similar (power management wise) in its CP?

Pictures in iDVD slide show keep auto adjusting

Hi,
I'm knew to iDVD. I am a professional photographer and prior to iDVD used another piece of software to create DVD slideshows.
I created my first iDVD slide show, and encountered a weird issue. The only transition I'm using is a dissolve; it seems that at the time the slide show was being rendered, images were somehow being "auto adjusted" for exposure. The images come on the TV, then they automatically adjust for exposure; iDVD attempts to make lighter images dark and darker images lighter. It is annoying. Anyone know how to turn this "auto exposure" adjustment off?
I looked everywhere for help on this issue: I.E. turn off "auto adjust", but to no avail.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply...
Question: How do I turn on or turn off "auto adjust?"
I didn't quit and then restart...
The images are on the higher res side.
but again, where is the "auto adjust" setting located?

My router cant be the problem because its in the same room and i have 6 other apple devices that work fine..ive searched all over for solutions and tried some but still no luck..does any one have an idea as to what i can do to resolve this annoying problem please?

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

New iMac brightness level keeps changing (auto adjust NOT checked)

Just got a new 27 inch iMac and keep on having to change the brightness level back to the brightness I prefer.
I do not have auto adjust checked, I put the brightness slider up to the level I like and after a while the brightness dims to what seems like the default level as its always down to the same spot on the slider...what gives? i just want it to stay where I want it...
Help.

I have same problem, of autobrightness being unchecked and my brightness going from full to about 3/4 bright
all by itself. I had that problem, then flickering of my screen also was taking place. I didn't bring my unit into Apple
because this autobrightness thing plus flickering would not happen on command,, and I wouldn't be able to show them properly. Well , finally my left side of the screen dimmed,, and that was the go ahead to bring it in to them
to show the left side of screen. I also told them about the flickering,, and the autobrightness, which I figured played a role into the final left side dimming. They replaced the backlight and the display LCD on warranty.
I have had it for about 5 days. The screen is equally lit (as should be), however, I discovered that my same old
problem of autobrightness, is slipping back to 3/4. So most of you have autobrightness problem in a sort of different way. I set mine to "torch" because my downstairs bedroom is dim (with one overhead light), but sometimes, just plain dark,, so I want to sometimes keep it at torch,, however, it still slips back. You would
almost think that if my surronding was dim or dark, that it would stay on torch if the autobrightness was really working properly. Go figure. I just tried SMC a short while ago,, I had tried, before my repair doing PRAM and the other one (I think VRAM). I also will unhook my second monitor to see if that is having an impact on things.
Do any of you in this post have a second monitor attached,, and have you tried unhooking it to see if the problem
is resolved?

Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

My photos won't "load" - it has worked fine for at least two years, but suddenly now when I plug in the chip, iPhoto opens up as usual, but the window just says "loading photos", and the little wheel keeps on spinning - can anyone help me?? I am new here

I am new here. I need to get it working again because we're about to go on a trip!

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

While editing photos in Aperture, I'm trying to make an "auto" adjustment to the exposure but the button is grayed out and consequently doesn't perform any function, please help! Thank you, Mike

Mike, are you working with raw images?
For some raw images auto exposure is not available, have a look at this manual page:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=18%26se ction=9%26tasks=true
Note: Automatic exposure adjustment is available for Aperture-supported RAW images only. If you want to adjust the exposure of another file type, such as JPEG or TIFF, see Working with the Exposure Controls. For a list of supported RAW file types, go to the Apple website at http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs.

I keep on adjusting the duration of the IMOVIE clips , and after I have hit DONE and check the clip, it reverts to the original number and not the new duration requested. Any suggestions???

Error -69 suggests a possible problem with the source files on your computer. Check the source disk for errors and backup if you don't already do so. See HT1210: iTunes displays a -69 error when syncing iPod for more details.
The SyncToy backup program is also a good way to identify exactly which files cannot be read. Repeated runs may succed in copying files which won't copy over on the first attempt.
See also Corrupt iPod classic.
It may also help to disable any AV software while syncing or set exclusions on the media folder and the iPod's drive.

My new nano keeps going into sleep mode every copy of minutes while music is playing. I can't figure out how to stop this. The user guide isn't too helpful. Any ideas?

This is usually a sign that your iPod's headphones are not plugged in all the way. Make sure that you cannot see any of the silver still showing from the headphone's plug. You should hear a sort of popping/clicking noise when inserting the headphones letting you know that they have been fully seated.

You must be using an update CD. You need the software that has the full version first - install that, then you can use the update one if needed. I know, cuz I made the same mistake - lol

How to auto adjust the height of my div tag?

This is my website www.whistleandlisten.com
The white background is a div tag and whenever I add new content within the div tag I want it to auto adjust to extend the white div tag down as the page gets longer. I have tried css and set my height to auto but that makes it disappear. Right now I have to set it to a certain amount of pixels which gets annoying and sometimes I forget to after adding lots of content. PLEASE HELP.

To have an extensible height element, you should not apply the height property as you have done starting at line 9 of songcss.css
#whitediv
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -490px;
top: 0px;
width: 950px;
height: 2900px;
z-index: 1;
background-color: #ffffff;
background-image: none;
background-repeat: repeat;
background-attachment: scroll;
background-position: 0% 0%;
background-clip: border-box;
background-origin: padding-box;
background-size: auto auto;

Hello Diqoter,
You keep getting a message that auto adjustment in progress.
Have you tried to connect the monitor to another computer?
It might be that the auto adjustment button is stuck.
If you still have the disk that came with the monitor you can try to run the disk.
Here is a link to the manual for your monitor.
Do a hard reset of the monitor.
Unplug the power going to the monitor and hold down the power button for 15 sec, this will reset the hardware in the monitor.
Let me know how everything goes.
Have a good day.

Auto-Adjust disabled; mic volume still adjusts.

I have the volume auto-adjust turned off on Skype. Yet the mic volume still automatically adjusts in skype. I often run two instances of Skype. On both accounts, I have the Volume Auto-Adjust option disabled. I have even gone into my computer's hardware settings, and disabled the setting that allows applications to take exclusive control of the microphones I use. Whether the mic is built-in, or USB, Skype still automatically adjusts its volume. I've tried three different microphones and it automatically adjusts all of them. I use Windows 7, 64. Skype is up to date. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a Razer Megalodon. I have used it for a couple years just fine with Ventrilo, Mumble, Raid Call, Teamspeak 1 & 2, others, AND Skype. No problems, until my most recent re-install of Skype. I had Skype uninstalled for several months because i wasn't playing the game(s) that my online friends used Skype as a Voice Client. I recently started playing again, and reinstalled Skype (latest Installer). Now it seems my Microphone Level in the System Sound Options panel (Open Sound Devices> Recording> Microphone Properties> Level) gets auto-managed regardless of the settings in Skype. This is brand new behavior on my system and only happened after installing Skype. It seems to lower the Mic Level in my system even when Skype is closed (R-Click skype in Notification Area> Quit... Then I check Task Manager for Skype in Processes and in Services> End Task/Process Tree if still running). Every time i try to check the way it works in my other voice clients and in the "Microphone Setup Wizard" in windows, the Auto-Leveling behavior is there, even when disabled/turned off in ALL other Microphone using programs including Windows. When i Adjust Skype's Microphone Level from Max to 75%, i can watch the System's Microphone Level drop to 0. When i move the Skype Microphone Level to 0, then move the System Microphone Level to 2 (yes two) it jumps Skype's Microphone Level to Max. Yes, i have disabled any and all "Application Control / Exclusive Mode" options in Windows and all my Voice Clients including Skype. With a little digging, anyone reding this can find that there are settings on the Headset as well... again, i have been using this headset for years without issue, i know how to set it up. As you can imagine, it makes my voice either too soft/muffled to hear, or overpowering with reverb/echo/feedback. As mentioned before, this is NEW behavior since the latest re-install of Skype, and it is affecting my entire system and other Voice Clients now, wheather Skype is running or not. I hope this behavior is not intended by design. I understand the need for Auto-Leveling for those who can't be arsed to learn how their PC works beyond the "Push the Power Button Crowd," however to force those who know how to use a PC (built mine from scratch) and manage their settings properly to use this Auto-Leveling by making it "Always On" is no less than insulting. Please, Please!, tell me this is an accidental side effect and not another intentional "Dumbing Down" tactic by MS.

Auto Adjustment in progress

Hi
I had a problem lately with my HP2311f monitor.
It keep prompting the "auto adjustment in progress" everynow and then.
Can anyone assist to help me stop this problem.
Thank you

Hello xiaohui,
The first thing you should try is just doing a power reset on the monitor.
1. Disconnect the power from the monitor
2. Disconnect the cables from the back of the monitor to the computer
3. Reconnect the monitor back to the power
4. Connect the monitor to the computer
If that still causes it to present the problem try resetting to factory
1. Press the menu button to access the OSD (on screen display)
2. Use the plus and minus keys to navigate the menus and select Factory Reset
Use the monitor for a bit and see if the problem comes back.
