Question about gamma correction

I recently ordered prints from iPhoto that came directly off my Canon EOS Rebel XT (at max quality). The resulting photos looked very much as if they were printed at PC gamma correction rather than at Mac gamma.
Is there something else I need to set in iPhoto to get the gamma I expect?

Catherine:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you have your monitor calibrated so the 2.2 gamma? I've done that and prints now look more like the monitor presentation. I've set the monitor to the sRGB profile with the 2.2 gamma.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Some questions about the correct way to recharge the zen micro batt

    Ok..i don't think this is convered in the FAQs.
    I copied this from the FAQ----At the present moment, the only possible way to avoid the standby loss is removing the battery after you finish listening to music. Gi'ven the wear and tear resulting, this is not really an option. It will help, though, if you prime your battery correctly, recharge it often (topping it up, not only resorting to full recharges),
    Ok...my question--
    ) to preserve battery life span, shouldn't we wait for the player to die off complete, for example when it starts to display "low battery" before we recharge it's Does this post mean that we shouldn't actually wait for the battery to be complete;y drained off before a recharge? Does it mean we should always recharge, say when there's one bar left?
    2) Before doing any music transfer using the computer, should we always make sure the zen micro was fully charged first before the transfer since USB port also serves as a charger. I tried using a completely drained player before music transfer and the player stops charging after 3 hours, which shouldn't be the case because USB always take a longer time to charge (i was told twice as much) and true enough, after deplugging from the USB port, the player starts charging again. Note that this always happen, meaning i can never get a complete 5 hours charge using the USB. What is wrong? And after such charge from USB, i noticed that the battery life the next day is like one third of what it usually last when i charged it through a charger...
    I know this is a long post but can someone tell me the correct way of charging?
    Thanxs!

    This is from JazzMC's FAQ right? (I added a link to this a day or two ago from the main FAQ post) I hadn't spotted this before and I don't agree with most of this. The wear and tear is minimal, but it's more a case of practicality that removing the battery is a pain. Also priming is not really that important with Lithium Ion, and topping up won't make any difference to the battery drain.

    Look in my Nomad Primer, which is essentially a distilled version of the information from BatteryUni'versity.com. Top-up charges prolong the life of a Lithium Ion battery. These are all reference in the FAQ.

    Because of the Micro's design there will always be a difference in the amount of power it can pull via USB vs. the drain when copying files to it. USB is slower to charge than the mains adapter, but it should charge fully given time (which could be twice as much as using the mains adapter).
    There is a known issue with the battery draining on the Micro, but you should know this having read JazzMC's page. This is the reason the battery is so low the next day.

  • Question about Colour correction

    Hi there
    Just a quick one really, I am starting now to correct colour on a HD footage 720p and have the following options for colour correction setups in front of me: (I know I should consider other setups but have to work with what I have)
    - connect an external Analog 4:3 TV via Firewire of a DV camera
    - connect my DVI output to a HD TV (via HDMI)
    - work on my MBP monitor
    Any advice? Any other config that comes to mind.
    The final output is DVD.
    Thanks in advance.
    Hisham

    Connect an external Analog 4:3 TV via Firewire of a DV camera
    Won't work. That is an SD output option, and you are using HD. Different color space...plus you can't output 720p via firewire thru a DV deck. You can only output DV that way.
    connect my DVI output to a HD TV (via HDMI)
    That is taking a computer monitor output to a TV...that is NOT a broadcast quality image. But it is better than option 1.
    work on my MBP monitor
    Won't look at ALL like what you see on TV.
    None of these is ideal. But if these are the ONLY choices I opt for Option 2, DVI to HDTV. It would get you the closest. BUT, it will still look different once you make the DVD. Best to get an HD output device that is designed for this. Matrox MXO2 Mini would be PERFECT. Balance your HDTV to bars via HDMI.

  • Question about pitch correction

    I have the same vocal sung twice on one stereo track. Cant change that. Well, I guess I can, Pan left and pan right and bounce. But I guess I'm looking for a short cut. The two vocals waver a little. The song is in the key of D. Any suggestions on pitch correction settings for this. Thanks Bill

    You can make a duplicate track & copy the region to that track. Then, below the meter of each track you see that button that is two interlocking circles? Click-hold on that to bring up a menu, select left for one track and right for the other. Put the pitch corrector plug on each track for separate processing (or use Melodyne or Autotune if you have those).
    You could also set the output of the track to a bus, make two aux's with that bus as the input, and do the same button under the meter on each of those.
    You'll have to tweak the pitch corrector yourself because results will be highly dependent on the material.

  • BDT - Question about the correct approach.

    Hi,
    We are already live with SAP CRM but there is a new requirement to add a new checkbox to the BP transaction to be held against each business partner.
    This flag is to be used to flag a Sold-To Party as a certain type of customer.
    If I extend BUT000 by creating a new field on an append structure is this risky as we are live with CRM.
    Or is a better approach to create a new Z table e.g. BP Number and Flag as the fields and enhance the BP transaction this way?
    Many Thanks
    David

    Hi David,
    For your current requirement, it is better if you try adding new fields to Business Partner through Easy Enhancement Work bench, (transaction eewb ).
    Using the Easy Enhancement Workbench (EEW) for business partner in SAP CRM you can easily extend the data model of business partner by new fields or tables and integrate them in the business processes.
    For more information on the steps involved in adding a new field in Business Partner and other useful information, please go through the link provided below:

  • 2 question about GPU and Lens correction ,cs5

    Hi
    i have 2 questions about Gpu and lens correction in Cs5
    1)Filter->lens correction->search online
    i get often and almost every connection time out at the first click on search online , at the second click i get no online profile
    is it normal?
    2) question is about Gpu
    it run faster , but talking about ajustament layer
    like saturation or vibrance for example
    i found with the gpu on , a light slow refresh compared with gpu off
    i have set cache  levels 6 ,history 20
    i guess are the defaul
    well i add a saturation layer and move the saturation slide ,increase o decrease saturation
    with Gpu Off , the changes are immedially , i mean i can see in real time the increase o decrease of saturation
    with Gpu On it takes a few(very few) time more
    again is normal ?
    don't be angry , i'm going to buy cs5 and i'm unsecure ... the price make a big role
    thanks

    For what it's worth, I also see a timeout on the first [ Search Online ] click, after about half a minute delay.  Second click turns up results immediately.  This happens each time Lens Correction is started, even without restarting Photoshop, and in both 32 and 64 bit versions.  Also note that I started with one profile listed by default (though from the wrong camera) for my 40D with 28-135 zoom.
    I alsow noticed that I was seeing progress bar activity in the Lens Correction dialog while I was typing this (even though Lens Correction was NOT the active window) every time I hit the 'L' key.  Strange.

  • Questions about 1003051 - TDMS 3.0 corrections - Composite SAP Note

    Experts:
    We, from a big SAP shop, want to set up TDMS for ERP,  BI, HCM and CRM.
    We have some questions about note 1003051:
    1) Is this note about ERP (and HCM)  only?  If so, what are the notes for TDMS on BI and CRM?
    2) Should we apply this note to all systems involved: sender, controller (SM7.0 in our case) and receiver?
    3) We have enhp1...enhp4 in our ERP (and HCM), enhp1 on BI and perhaps enhp1 on CRM (not sure yet).
        a)  What is the impact of enhp on TDMS?
        b) should we install TDMS before applying enhp OR the sequence does not matter?
    Thanks for your help!

    1) Is this note about ERP (and HCM) only? If so, what are the notes for TDMS on BI and CRM?
    >This is a composite note, and contains information about various other notes related to TDMS. Refer to each note mentioned in this note individually to assess the same.
    2) Should we apply this note to all systems involved: sender, controller (SM7.0 in our case) and receiver?
    >Depends from note to note, Each note contains the necessary information about the system it has to be installed on.
    3) We have enhp1...enhp4 in our ERP (and HCM), enhp1 on BI and perhaps enhp1 on CRM (not sure yet).
    a) What is the impact of enhp on TDMS?
    >TDMS in standard supports Basis 7.0 systems. However it generally works fine with 7.01 too.
    b) should we install TDMS before applying enhp OR the sequence does not matter?
    >As TDMS 3.0 is only available for systems with basis 4.6C to 7.0. So install TDMS first and then the EHP.
    I hope these answers help.

  • FCP Gamma Correction

    This isn't something that can really be answered, I just wanted to vent a little frustration about the way Apple handle the display gamma with FCP.
    From my understanding, Apple assume (and advise) that monitors are set to 1.8 gamma when running FCP, video shown in the viewer and canvas windows is then shown darker to resemble a 2.2 gamma which is how most other computer users see it, although the actual footage remains unaffected.
    That's all well and good, except that I use a 2.2 gamma already because I want to see content in the same way as the majority of computer users in all my apps, and because FCP is making the video look darker I'm no longer seeing realistic results when using it. Apples recommendation to use a gamma of 1.8 to get around this seems like madness to me, why can't the gamma correction be turned off in the FCP user preferences?
    At the moment I have to export quicktime files and view them outside of FCP to see what they really look like without the fake gamma correction, and then blindly make adjustments in FCP and repeat the whole process until I get the result I'm looking for - hardly a good way of working.
    Apple, please give us a check-box in the preferences to stop this forced gamma change.
    Paul.
    Message was edited by: Videotrader

    Hi Fergus
    If your concern is regarding the gamma calibration of your apple display then open up the OS X System Preferences > Dsiplays pane, Choose the Color tab for the appropriate monitor and press the Calibrate button ... in the first window of the Display Calibrator Assistant don't turn on Expert Mode, just press Continue, the very next screen allows you to set the target gamma, either the Mac OS standard gamma setting of 1.8, or the PC/TV standard gamma setting of 2.2 ... step through the remaining settings and save / use your new calibration profile.
    As to your actual question ... go to admit that I don't know mate! But if FCP does indeed make adjustment for your display gamma settings, it will do it with reference to your displays calibration.
    All that said, your gut instint is correct, you should NOT be using your apple dispaly for making critical color correction decisions. It's totaly wasting your time. You can only make reliable critical color correction decisions when using a properly calibrated reference monitor
    Hope that helps

  • Questions about using a PDF form online

    I have a client who wants to create an online version of a PDF form that they are currently using. I am currently trying to explain to them that this would be best done as an HTML web form, but I may not win this argument. I have only used PDFs for printed forms (either hand-written or using form fields) so I am not familiar with any problems that converting the form for use online would entail.
    When the 'Submit' button is pressed on the form, is there a way to redirect to another web page after the data is submitted? (i.e. does the PDF have access to it's outer 'environment'?)
    Are there any security issues submitting data using the PDF form as opposed to using a standard web form? (There may be sensitive data being submitted)
    I'm not sure how they plan to handle the data that is submitted, but there are several options in the submitForm parameters - I am assuming that using the HTML option would submit the data in the same format as a web form would. Am I correct here?
    Can the PDF be prevented from being downloaded or printed? This form should only be used to submit data to their server, not as a printed form.
    Are there any other 'gotchas' that I need to look out for? Does anyone have a recommendation for a site which contains any tutorials or guidelines for using PDF forms online?

    Thanks for the information.
    Yes, I agree that there is less reason for it to be a PDF form (Actually, no real reason other than the original form already exists in PDF), but I am unfortunately in the position that my input in this project is not necessarily being considered (my company is following direct -and inconsistent- directions from the client, and I have no contact with the client to ask questions about what their actual needs are). I have been told to give the client the 'Tomato' that they are asking for, even though they are describing an 'Apple'.
    The reason this form is not meant to be printed is that we have replaced the 'Signature' fields from the original form with checkboxes that the user must check to confirm they have 'signed' the document. If they are to print/fax/whatever the document, they should use the original form, not this one. And I am still trying to explain to them that this would be better served with an HTML web form, but I fear I am losing that battle.
    I have brought up the fact that it is not 100% guaranteed that Acrobat will be available in the browser, although I can only guess that it is less than likely that anyone will not have some sort of PDF viewer available to their browser.
    I will also mention that issues may arise if the file is not submitted from within the browser.

  • Questions about mac mini iTunes server, streaming to macbook pro, ipads, etc.

    I'm thinking about getting a mac mini to work with my NAS as a iTunes server. I have a bunch of questions about this. I will have two iPhones, a few iPads, and a laptop that will be accessing the files. I have iTunes match. This is basically to keep an always on computer for hosting the music/movies. My questions are as follows . . .
    #1 Are there any good, comprehensive guides to show you how to do this?
    #2 Can the movies be accessed when not at home on the shared network?
    #3 Can the iPads or the macbook pro download the shared movies to be stored locally?
    #4 Back to #3, how will it work on my macbook pro with listening to music (I have iTunes match)? Say i go to library and I break out my macbook pro and I don't have internet. What happens if I download music while at home onto my macbook pro to listen to it when I go to the library? Will i start a new library on my macbook pro? How will that mesh with the home server when I come back.
    #5 Is there a way to mirror files or folders? So something that I have on my macbook pro will also mirror on the home server.
    Thanks for your help on this. I'll post any follow up questions.

    You are not obligated to use iTunes.

    Hi I have a question about shooting in Raw with my Canon EOS 6d.
    I'm in the process of learning photography and my goal was to start shooting in raw.
    I have Photoshop CS5. When I tried to edit my images in raw I received an error message stating, "The photoshop camera raw plug-in did not recognize the format. If these files are from a camera, you may need to update your camera raw plug in."
    In researching the issue I read that to edit in raw you need a camera model requirement of at least 7.3 which only works with CS6. My version of CS5 is 6.0.0.205. Being new to all this I see that my options are to upgrade to CS6 or convert by using DNG converter and paying a monthly fee. Two things I know nothing about and don't know which is would be more beneficial.
    I'd appreciate any advise on which route to go and how upgrade and what it may cost. THANKS in advance!
    Heather

    In researching the issue I read that to edit in raw you need a camera model requirement of at least 7.3 which only works with CS6.
    That is correct. Your camera was first supported by Camera Raw 7.3. Camera Raw 7.3 will not work with CS5. You need CS6 or CC.
    Being new to all this I see that my options are to upgrade to CS6 or convert by using DNG converter and paying a monthly fee. Two things I know nothing about and don't know which is would be more beneficial.
    I'd appreciate any advise on which route to go and how upgrade and what it may cost.
    It all depends on your preferred workflow and your budget.
    Using the DNG converter is free. There is no monthly fee. You use the converter to convert all Raw files from the EOS 6D to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS5. That's an extra step every time - every photo. Some people don't like the extra step. Others don't mind.
    Camera raw, DNG | Adobe Photoshop CC
    Or you can upgrade to CS6 (non-Cloud) and pay the upgrade fee
    Creative Suite 6
    Or join the Cloud and pay the monthly fee
    Or join the Photoshop Photography Program (US9.99/month) and get PS CC+LR

    2) Are Id3-tags used instead of filename for identification?
    3) What parts of the tag are needed besides title and artist?
    4) Which version of tags does the Zen Touch recognize: Version or Version 2?
    5) If I edit my tags using an external program such as Id3-TagIT, will the tags carry over to the Creative software and to the player?
    Thanks a lot for your help. I want to make sure I have my music collection in order before I get my Zen Touch.

Example: Folder: Chicago Contents: Chicago .mp3 files Folder: Techno Contents: various Techno artist's songs What is the best way of organizing my folder system, so that the transition will be easy to the player?
    Folders are pretty much irrelevant. What the software will do is look at the *tags* in the files and then use these to build the player's library.
    Will imbedded folders work on the player? (like Techno->Crystal Method->Cystal Method .mp3's)
    Again the player has no concept of folders, although if you set Techno as a Genre tag you will be able to view via this in the Music Library.
    Or, am I misunderstanding how music is stored into the mp3 player. Instead of storing music in a "folder like" system (like the Chicago folder or Techno folder), does it store all the songs individually on the device? Then you have to sort it by artist, album, or genre?
    Using your example, in the Music Library you have essentially three categories: Album, Artist, and Genre. So under Album you would see "Vegas" (the Crystal Method's album), under Artist you would see "The Crystal Method", and under Genre you would see "Techno" (and then either the album or artist under this... I forget which it is offhand).
    Make sense?
