Sqlplus 11gr2 in black&white plaintext win 7

hi friends,
I installed 11gr2 client on my win7 64-bit, real smooth. however the sqlplus interface is a plain text version like the one found in unix command line. so all the advantages of graphical sqlplus like the special copy-paste functionality are gone. did I do something wrong or is everybody else experiencing the same situation?

ClaudioThe text version of sqlplus has the same copy and paste capabilities as the OS command prompt processor. And it's really the same functionality as SQLPLUSW. It's there, it just works a little differently.
Try this:
Put a shortcut to cmd.exe on your desktop.
right click the icon and open 'properties'
Under the 'options' tab, select 'quick edit'
save it and open the shortcut.
Now, you can select text like always, and copy it by pressing the 'enter' key.
You can paste text by right clicking the mouse, or with 'ctrl-v'.
You can also access the edit features by right clicking the icon in the upper left corner of the open cmd.exe window.
start sqlplus from here and all of the above edit features will be inherited by sqlplus.

Help need to change black & white pic to add some color?

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 and Im tryin to find where I can take a black and white pic I took today few of and want to add some color to few areas on it like flowers ect..
Ive been tryiin to find out where it says in the book but I cant find it.
Also, how does one place a watermark of somekind on my pics like a small one down in a corner?
Thanks, appreciate it!

There are several ways to do this. Here are a few.
One way, is to create a blank layer over your image. Change this blank layer's blend mode to either color blend mode or soft light blend mode. Use the paint brush to apply color(s).
You might also consider using a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer over your image. If you have a color in mind, make that your foreground color in the tool box before you create a hue/saturation adjustment layer. After you create the layer, change it's blend mode to either color or soft light. Fill the mask with black to hide the effect. Grab the paintbrush tool and select white as your foreground color. Paint where you want color applied to your photo. (If you over paint switch to black and paint over mistakes.) You can apply a little bit of Gaussian blur on the mask to make the edges transition from black and white to color smoother.)
Another possibility is to duplicate your image then use color variations to color the duplicate. Once happy with the coloration, use eraser to remove color you don't desire or better yet use a clipping mask with an adjustment layer as the base so you can mask the image and use black/white paint to define areas that will be colored.

Why, when I save a .BMP as Black & White, it is 256 color?

AAARRRGGHhh!!!!!
I HATE the MS Paint in Win 7!!!
I want to save a .BMP with just TWO colors - Black & White - for use in another program where I import a .BMP.
However I can't import since I get an error that the .BMP is more than 256 colors....EVEN AFTER I SAVED AS BLACK & WHITE!!
IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT!!!!

Hi,
This is just a warning to in case you do some mishandling.
You can save the original picture in the desktop, then launch paint program. Click ->Open to import the picture.
Then save as "Monochrome Bitmap(*.bmp;*.dib)" tape, you will get the black&white picture.

Black & White Layer in CS5

Has anyone had this problem, is there a fix?
When creating a monochrome image if I flatten the image and then add Black and White as a layer to the flattened image it will not allow me to make changes. Every time I move a slider in the B&W tool it jumps back to the initial position. If I don't flatten before adding the Black & White layer it works OK.
The only way I can make it work if I want to flatten the image beforehand is to select all layers and then Merge Down, Merge Visible causes the same problem as flattening.
Worked OK in CS3.

Win 7 32 bit,CS5, 4Gb Ram.

I only get the problem if a colour image with layers
is flattened before the B&W layer is added.
This will work if the B&W layer is put at the top of the stack.
Like this it does not work
The original image is:
I shrunk the image down to 96 P/I and 12 cm wide so I could post it here and found that I don't get a problem with the B&W layer at all.
So I flattened the full size image, saved it, closed the image and then reopened the flattened image and then applied a B&W layer and again no problem.
So I suspect that it is a memory issue or some other sort of conflict.
I have 4Gb of which 1.2Gb is available for PS.
I installed Win 7 as an upgrade from Vista.
I have seen on other PS problems in the forum that a clean install of Windows can cure some problems.
Thanks for your response.

New Nvidia Forceware drivers 61.77 turns Windows black & white

I just installed the latest Forceware drivers from Nvidia, ver. 61.77, and upon restarting Windows XP, I find out that everything is now in black & white! I'm running a Mega 180 with Win XP Pro by the way. Rolling back the drivers to my old ones brought back the color, so it would seem the new drivers are at fault here. Does anyone have a clue as to why this happens?

Hey Kid!
I got the same problem when I upgraded, and I too reverted back to the old drivers to get the color back. For some reason I tried a second install, and this time I found that an extra setting has been added to - if I remember this correctly, I'm at work now - the screen where you adjust brightness, contrast etc. This new setting is for reasons unknown set to the lowest setting as default, which is black/white. Raising it to its maximum setting brought back the wonderful world of colors again!
Cheers!

Email Stops Sending - Constant Spinning Black & White Wheel

I mistakenly attempted to send a large attachment (over 30mb) and since then (10 hours ago) my email account has the spinning black & white wheel spinning. I am able to receive emails, but not send.
When looking at the Activity Monitor, the Network traffic is high. When I force mail to quit, Network traffic trails off.
I've deleted the Outbox.mbox as an other post suggested, but this didn't solve the problem.
The email account causing the issue is a gmail one, setup with IMAP.
Have checked the Mail/Preferences/Outgoing Mail account, and all looks well.
Any suggestions?

You will probably be able to correct this by going to your web interface page for your ISP mail and delete the offending e-mail file from there. I've had this happen a couple of times. And doing this cleared it up. Gmail is a particularly egregious culprit with things like this. Once it gets stuck, you almost always have to go to the web interface to clear up the problem.
Good Luck.

MacBook - Black & white image on TV

Please can somebody help with connecting my MacBook to a Sony trinitron TV
I have a new MacBook and I'm using the following set up to connect to a 5 year old Sony TV -
Apple mini-DVI to video converter into S-video lead connected to S-video to SCART adaptor - problem is that I only get a black & white image.
Can anybody help = please?
13" white MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Hi essman,
As S-Video cables send their chroma (colour) and luminance (brightness) signals separately it sounds as though the problem may be found either in your S-Video cable or in one of the S-Video connectors. If only the luminance pins/wire was working correctly your video signal would appear to be in black and white.
To ensure that the SCART adapter is not the problem however I would recommend testing with a composite video cable (also known as an RCA.) With that cable the entire video signal is sent over the one pin, so you either get video or you don't. If over that connection it's still black and white, I would say the blame lies with the SCART adapter.
Hope this helps!

Black & white screen using DVI-to-Video adapter

I've got a strange problem. I'm connecting my MacBook Pro to a Sony TV using Apple's DVI to Video adapter and a composite video cable.
As soon as I make the connection, I see the Mac's screen appearing on my TV, but it is in black & white! And it flickers a little every few seconds. The only way to get to a colour screen seems to be to re-boot the MacBook. It's quite annoying.
Previously, I've always had a colour picture come up immediately. The problem started to crop up right around the time I installed Snow Leopard, in fact, although I'm not sure whether it's a coincidence or not. And I don't think it's related to my TV. Any thoughts?

same problem here... first time i plug it in after a reboot it's in color. when you disconnect it and try again later it'll be in black and white and there's nothing you can do to fix the problem. only choice you have is to reboot your computer. as you can imagine, having to reboot the computer every time you want to use the adapter is REALLY annoying

DVI to Video is black & White

Hi, I've just bourght a Apple DVI to Video PAL edition to use with my tv, but the picture is in black & white.
Normal you get a black & white picture on the tv if you use ntsc stuff on european tv's, but it is a pal adaptor.
Any sugestions to solve the problem?

I've tried that, but it doesn't help.
Do you, in fact, see the option to select between NTSC and PAL in the Displays System Preferences? (Just to make sure everything is being detected correctly.)
Are you using an s-video cable or a composite video cable? Can you try a different cable and/or port on your TV?

I have a macbook latest update & am trying to install flash player 7 will not accept password & I have triesd both administrator password & adobe password & "ok" keeps jumping w/o any message other than hint: black & white" I'm confused & frustrated.

I am a macbook user latest update & cannot get beyond the password - have used Adobe password & administrator password but the "ok" keeps jumping - hint: says "black & white" Very frustrating.

This password prompt is presented by your operating system, and is intended to keep you from accidentally installing software.
If this is your personal machine and you don't need a password to log into the computer when it first starts up, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to get past this prompt. If this is your personal machine and your normal password isn't working, check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is off, and type the password carefully.
If this is your work machine and it's asking for an Administrator password, well, you'll need to have a conversation with your friendly IT person.
If you're still stumped, you may need to reset the password on your Mac:

How can I print in black/white only a document that has colors in the original?

How can I print in black/white only a document that has colors in its original. I don't need the print out to be in color, and I don't want to waste the color ink.

It depends on your printer and the application you are using.
In some applications you can choose color vs. greyscale/black&white when you do File > Print. PowerPoint is one example of an application that allows this choice.
Otherwise, you can usually select greyscale at the time you print the document. Do File > Print. In the resulting dialog box, there should be an item called Copies & Pages (in Word and other applications) or Preview (in Preview). Click it. In the resulting list, you should then see an option called Printer Features. Click it. Then you should see an option called Printout Mode. Usually one of the modes is Greyscale or Black & White. Select it. Then Print.
This can also depend on your printer. Exactly what make/model printer are you using? And what kind of document are you trying to print (Word, PPT, JPEG, etc)?

How can I convert RGB Color to Black-White Color?

Dear everyone!
I am using Photoshop CS5. I have got a file from my customer which is done as RGB and the resolution is 300dpi. There are black texts and color images in the file. I wish to print Black-White Process Film (1 black color), but I don't know how to solve it. I started converting my file to Grayscale and then the black texts are not black enough because it becomes lighter. When I go to Level and adjust the color, both the image and texts becomes darker. What must I do to make only texts blacker without effecting the image?
Please find the attached file for the reference.
For more information, please let me know.
My Best Regards,
LUCK

What file format was supplied to you? Was it truly RGB @ 300ppi or did you rasterize a PDF?
300ppi is lousy for text. You might converse with your customer to instruct them on the ideal way to supply a file to you.

Lightroom or Elements for a simple purpose - RAW to black&white

Hi,
I have no experience whatsoever with digital photography, I've been working on analogue for several years now, but want to give it a try...
The thing is that I'm looking for a software, which will allow me:
- possibility to convert color RAW from camera into black&white RAW, then export as a JPEG (I'd like to have a chance to enhance the contrast etc. on the RAW in b&w before having a final file, and maybe add option of plugins as NIK Silver Efex in the future if I feel a need for it)
- add white frame around the JPEG, of which size I could choose, and maybe add my name/logo + date on the frame
I'm confused and don't know which software would allow me to do that two, simple things - Lightroom or Elements?
Thanks for your support!

Elements is more limited in how to adjust the colors to black-and-white.
Lightroom has more sophisticated adjustments. These adjustments are the same as in the Camera Raw plug-in for Photoshop, but absent in the Camera Raw plug-in for Elements. The adjustments allow you to enhance the contrast and brightness of the gray-level for narrow ranges of original colors instead of a simple removal of color with a default color-balance or clicking on a preset that Elements has.
Here is a very verbose video introduction to the LR B/W conversion on an example photo, viewed best in full-screen HD:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutorials/bw_workflow_in_lightroom.shtml
Here is a step-by-step example with screenshots and description, from 2008, but the adjustments still mostly apply, except the vignetting you’d use wouldn’t be lens-related, it’d be the Post-Crop Vignetting in the Effects section that didn’t exist back in 2008:
http://layersmagazine.com/create-stunning-black-and-white-images-in-lightroom.html
These were just the first and third links that showed up after Googling for Lightroom Black and White.
BTW, I am a photo-hobbyist and use Lightroom every day, so it’s not just for professionals making money off their photos that need something fast. For me it is more about seriousness and perfection and freedom.

Black screen in Win 7 with intel HD driver display on MBP

I'm getting black screen in Win 7. This is very weird - the only help is uninstall intel HD graphics driver (everything is fine under standard VGA windows supplied driver- MBP i7 13.3') or use external display through HDMI. Any suggestion how to fix this?

Hi,
i have the same issue.
You need to restore Win7 before this installation
and install 260.99 version of the driver.
It seems to be the more recent one that works with Apple hardware at this time.

Black & White quartz filter behaves oddly when creating PDFs

I think the Black and White Quartz Filter should print all colours and greys as Black. But pale colours and light greys are not printed at all, presumably they are 'White'. Printing all colours as Black is a useful property when printing CAD drawings, for instance.
I tried to create my own qfilter to do the job, which involves using a 'Bilevel' Intermediate Transform cranked to the max, but the ColorSync utility wouldn't let me rename it anything but 'Untitled'. Smells like a permissions problem?
I eventually duplicated the Black & White qfilter, which was automatically named 'Black & White Copy'. I was able to edit the actions, but not it's name. Changing the file's name by hand wouldn't change it in the ColorSync Utility.
Printers available for testing were an HP LaserJet 2100TN, and an EPSON Stylus Color 1160.
