Problem with light sensor

Hi to all,
I have a problem with the light sensor of my MacBook Pro. The light sensor has always worked until I have manually increased the brightness. From that moment the light sensor does not work anymore.
Can anyone help me please?
Thanks

Have you pressed the F6 key a few times?

  • Little problems with two sensors

    Hi
    I've got a problem with two sensors.
    First, the luminosity sensor. I'd like to set the brightness to a fixed value. It would not vary from darkness to bright sunlight.
    Then, when i'm typing in landscape mode, it often switches back to portrait mode, wich make me terribly angry as i lose too much time.
    How can i solve these two problems ?
    Is there a special app?
    Last, but least, does anyone know if an app that would allow to take HDR/exposure blending pictures exist ? It'd take 3 to 5 photos with different exposures, and if it merged them to a good tonemapped picture it would be perfect.
    Thanks

     The light sensor can't be set to a fixed permanent value using the phones default settings, I'm afraid. You can only adjust it's sensitivity. However, some users have reported using an app to keep the screen set at maximum brightness.
     The motion sensor which switches the phone screen orientation has become more sensitive after the recent PR 1.1 update, so not a lot can be done about that either, apart from trying to hold the phone as steady  as possible when using it.
    Finally, there isn't any HDR available for the N8 at this time, nor is there any setting to increase the exposure time to something like a second, which would be a nice feature to add to  a great camera.
     All the best.

  • Problem with Light Table in Bridge CS6

    Hi! After a re-install (which didn't fix the problem with PS), I now find that, when using the light table in Bridge CS6 and after hitting the space bar, if I then click on the image, it goes to 800% size! Prior to the uninstall & re-install, it worked perfectly in taking images to 100% size.
    Hope someone can help.......
    Thanks, Wardie

    Why did you reinstall photoshop cs6?
    What operating system are you using?
    Did you reinstall all the updates for photoshop cs6 by going to Help>Updates from within photoshop cs6?
    After you enter the light table, use your mouse scroll wheel to zoom back to 100% and exit the light table.
    The next time you go to the light table and click on the picture it should only go to 100%.

  • R7970 problem with temperature sensor?

    So last month I RMA'd my R7970 and I just received it in the mail. Originally my problem was I had artifacting lines, and occasionally freezes. In the time between that I had ordered a 5450 just as a temporary card.
    When I got my 7970 back I removed the 5450 and placed the 7970 in its place. However after booting up my computer the fans started going on max speed every few seconds while online. I looked at the temperature according to afterburner and it says its at 70c where my previous card was probably around 50 during normal use. I tried playing skyrim but it's not the funnest thing to play when you have the sound of a fan blowing at 50 mph. And while playing this the temperature went up to ~95c
    The reason I'm thinking theres a problem with the censor is that I felt the exhaust from the pci slot and though it was warm, it was not 95 degrees of hot. I turned off the computer and took out the graphics card and placed it back in thinking that was the problem but its still just as loud. I figured I'd post here first and see if maybe I did something wrong before contacting MSI directly.
    My specs are:
    CPU: AMD 8350
    mobo: gigabyte ga 990 fxa ud3
    gpu: R7970-2PMD3GD5
    psu: corsair cx 750
    ram: gskill 16gb ddr3 1600(?)mhz

    Hi I've replaced  the paste on two msi 7870 as they do an awfull job of applying by putting about six times to much on. I used a Noctua NT H1 non conductive paste just a very tiny pea size and the temps have dropped by 10%c on both cards. They are now in crossfire mode and pretty quiet although obviously they run hotter in crossfire mode but max out at 65%c. I had to RMA one of these cards just two weeks ago as the temp diode set the fan at full speed once it hit about 60%c which was intolerable as I expect yours is. They sent me a replacement card and didn't query that I had broken the warranty seal when I replaced the thermal paste. I'm surprised at how hot your 7970 gets although I've never used one is that normal for this card, is it in a decent sized case, is something stopping one of the fans from moving eg a power wire etc. sounds silly but I had this problem with a small form shuttle a motherboard wire had to be reouted on a twin fan card for that reason. Hope you get it sorted

  • Problems with lighting in After Effects CC using Mavericks

    I recently upgraded to Mavericks this week and installed the Adobe patch so that AE CC will work properly. I am having issues in a comp where I have an ambient light placed in the comp with no keyframes throughout the comp. As I scrub through the timeline, the light suddenly shuts off at a specific point in the timeline. When I render the comp into a .mov file, the light is definately shut down at that point with no keyframe.
    In addition, I have added a spotlight to a different comp, moved the start and end of the light to the place I need it. When I scrub through the timeline, the light is coming on about 5 seconds in advance of where I directed it to come on. When I go to a point before the the light is initiated via a keyframe, and the light is on, I click on the "eye" to disable the light and it does shut off. Neither of these were issues in AE CC before Mavericks as far as I am aware.
    Can anyone confirm that they have had a similar issue or is there a known fix yet! Thanks to all of the engineers at Adobe for your amazing assistance!

    There MUST be a simple answer to this problem....
    There is a simple answer indeed.
    Here it is:
    The highlighted button in the Comp panel enables Pixel Aspect Ratio (PAR) Correction.
    So, instead of stretching the footage horizontally, you create a Composition with the same frame aspect and Pixel Aspect Ratio as your source footage (just drag the clip to the New Comp button in the project panel and AE will automate this) and then enable PAR correction and After Effects will give you a corrected (deanamorphized) preview so you won't see it squeezed at all on a computer monitor. When you export it, it will look squeezed until you take it to the target video application. Any professional video application will handle this correctly.Millions of people do this every day, since non-square pixels are still dominant among the most popular video formats.
    Even Photoshop has had support for non-square pixels (and PAR correction in the document panel) since CS (ie. Photoshop 8.0).
    Note that when you turn on PAR correction (just like when you use odd magnification levels) AE switches to a draft filtering mode, which makes type and other elements look a bit jagged. Don't worry, it's just a preview.
    The ideal solution, and the one video professionals rely on, is adding video output hardware to your computer, so you can connect a professional video monitor. After Effects can provide a live preview using such a set-up.
    For more information on PAR, see Pixel aspect ratio and frame aspect ratio in After Effects Help.

    Using iPhone 4 (1 Day Old)

    I don't believe this is fixed and have rised the issue with Apple. I did what was asked on the link provided and still the problem persisted.
    Could I ask if the problem came about via upgrading the iOS from 3.1.x to 4?
    I've done a clean install of the iOS...meaning I wipe everything.... and it looks like it might have worked.

  • Problems with light detailed navigation

    Hi there,
    We have the poblem that the light detailed (3rd level) navigation is missig for four users. When I login with one of these users, the complete left plane is empty. If I login with a different user with the same role, then the navigation is working as usual.
    Anyone who had a similar problem?
    Regards,
    Manuel

    Hi,
    This can happen when the users have different Desktops and in the Framework page the detailed navigation Iview is not added/invisible.
    Check the portal rules to know about the Desktop used by the users and make sure that the framework page contains detailed navigation Iview inside the Desktop inner page.

  • What can i do for the -3degree problem with motion sensor?

    Compare with my Iphone 5 ...There is a big problem and confuse me !
    What can i do to solve this problem?

    Apple, I'm sure, is working on it. If it's easy to fix with software, it will be out shortly with software update 7.0.3. Just sit tight.
    If it's a hardware problem, it's unlikely Apple will be able to fix it, and they're equally unlikely to take back millions of phones. My guess is we'll get a free case out of it -- just like with "Antenna Gate".
    My data:
    My iPhone 4 running iOS 7.0.2 agrees with reality (defined by both my bubble and digital contractor levels).
    My 32GB silver iPhone 5s is off by 3 degrees (level function) and about 7 degrees (compass function). I haven't run into any buildings with Tom Tom yet.

  • Toshiba - A665-S5170: ambient light sensor not working after recovery

    Hi all,
    Two weeks ago I bought Toshiba - Satellite Laptop Model: A665-S5170 | SKU: 1859059
    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Toshiba+-+Satellite+Laptop+/skuId=1859059
    I tried to resize the C: partition using the recovery option. It works fine ending with C: partition (100 GB) and D: partition (480GB)
    All the divers and applications restored fine except the ambient light sensor.
    I used system recovery to out-of-box state, but still have the same problem "ambient light sensor not working".
    Would you please help me find a solution?
    Thanks in advance.

    I had the same problem. I tried resetting SMC but that didn't do the trick. Then I tried “Repair disc permissions“ and that fixed the problem.

    It must be a problem with the sensors under the screen.Have you ever dropped th phone down or in water?If so that is the cause.Restoring wont help you.You will have to take it to Apple and see what they say.
