Go to Solution.

It's not possible when using the camera button but if you tap "Camera" in the app drawer or home screen it will go to Manual if that's what you used last time.

    if services are in manual mode then it will not start automatically.check is there any script running which will start the services at the time of windows startup.

    I do know that it is not certified, which was the case of 10g while Windows 7 was just launched. We worked on it and MADE it run on Windows 7 machines without having the same issue mentioned in the thread. As far right now, there are no startup scripts facilitating the automatic startup of Oracle services. Oh yeh, I will go ahead and do a re-install to confirm that nothing is wrong place :)

  • Camera not saving manual mode settings.

    As the title says, everytime I choose a scene mode and go back to manual mode the settings gets reset. (i.e. focus mode, ISO, metering mode)
    It is annoying to set it everytime. Why can't the app remember my settings.

    As far as I know this is how the phone is intended to work. Manual mode is intended to be used for a specific photo, and the settings is normally not preferred in other situations.

  • 430exII fires twice in Manual mode on radio triggers??????? I need it to stop!

    I've been using 430exII on radio recievers and have had no problems until now.  I have it set to manual mode, on same channel as transmitter, didn't mess with any custom funcions, but am getting a double burst.  How can I stop this?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Which radio triggers are you using?  Not sure how much Canon is going to help with 3rd party triggers.
    So it's only happening with one of your flashes?  What if you put that trigger on a different flash? That way you can narrow down the flash or the trigger.  If it's the trigger I'd start with the battery.  Cheap triggers like the Yongnuos act funky when the battery starts to die.  I'd also double check your transmitter and receiver contacts, they can make things act up as well.   Pull them all the way off, all the way on snug and lock.
    If it's the 430 acting up I'm not even sure where to start.  Batteries, contacts for corrosion, the usual stuff I guess.  See if it works properly on camera.  If your transmitter allows a test fire try that manually and see if it still double fires.

  • 4S: How do I keep camera in regular mode with "Invert Colors" to on?

    On an iPhone 4S w OS7.1, how do I keep the camera in regular mode (not negative image) and keep the "Invert Colors" swith to active or pink or (1).

    " (1) how do I transfer the files from my PowerBook G4 to the nano? "
    In disk mode the Nano will mount on the desktop like any removable dive, just drag the files you want onto it
    "(2) How would I transfer them back again if I ever need to?"
    Drag them back from the Nano to your computer
    "(3) should I try to go back and find out if "optimizing" was completed, and finish it if it wasn't? How?
    You would probably need to restore it to factory settings to start the process again
    "(4) How do I keep the nano from automatically updating from my music files when I charge it"
    You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys (on a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘) keys). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer. Then go to Preferences>iPod and check the "Manually manage songs and playlists" box. It won't update automatically in manual mode. You can also remove the tick from the box which says "Open iTunes when this iPod is attached".

  • Pixel binning/supersampling in manual mode?

    EDIT:
    This should be a quick, easy reply from a staff member.... why has this not been answered yet?
    Does manual mode use pixel binning or is this feature reserved for superior auto ?
    Will third party camera apps make use of pixel binning ? (Is it done at driver level or software level?)
    Original post
    Hi, so we have a 20mp sensor here, and clearly the "superior auto" is using some sort of pixel binning to produce its 8mp images. Is this true when selecting image sizes smaller than 20mp in manual mode? e.g do both the 16:9 and 4:3 8mp modes use the binning or it this exclusive to the "superior auto" mode
    And on a related note, is there a good reason why the superior auto drives the ISO so high compared to the manual mode at auto settings? It seems that any indoor or night photography in superior mode is an absolute disaster! Blurry, grainy mess most of the time; no such issues in manual where dimmer conditions are less of an issue.
    On a related note, any chance of Sony changing the behavior of the camera launch button, and lock screen shortcut? This always launches the horrible superior mode, whereas the app shortcut has the prefered behaviour of booting into the last used mode. I was hoping not to have to root my phone to fix software issues as I have with almost every other phone I've owned, but this issue will be a deal breaker for me.

    I mostly use manual mode in 8MP 16:9. Would be nice if it could be set default as it seems to produce lower noise images compared to other 8MP smartphones I've had so far. With non moving objects and steady hand you can get even better results dialing low ISO and HDR mode. Other times the auto ISO seems to work better to trade off noise for shake free image.
    Great addition is I can also use a bit zoom (there is an indicator in the zoome slider which shows where you start to lose detail) in this mode which is great.
    I never really used the superior mode since I feel it compromises too much and like to play with the settings a bit depending on situation.

  • Adobe Reader 8 won't start in "hand tool" mode

    I have Adobe Reader 8.1.3 on Vista Home Premium.
    The program will not start in 'hand tool' reading mode, it always starts in 'select tool' mode and I have to change it manually. If I quit reader after switching it to 'hand tool' mode, it does not remember, and next time starts in 'select tool' mode again.
    In Edit -> Preferences -> General -> Basic Tools, the only Hand- or Select-tool checkbox that is checked is "Make Hand Tool Read Articles".
    Based on a similar question in the Adobe Reader Unix forum (http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3c055988) I fould all the instances of registry key "aDefaultSelect" that I could (4 of them) and changed their values from "Select" to "Hand".
    However this did not solve the problem!
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Nevermind, seems to be working now!

  • Sx20is--only blue registers in manual mode. Color okay in auto

    In manual mode the only color in the image is blue. In auto mode the color is fine.

    Check the white balance setting. You are probably set in the tungsten mode, so try a different setting to see if things change. The easiest thing would be to set the camera to Auto White Balance and take a few photos. Use the setting that is the closest to the actual conditions that you are shooting in.
    To find the white balance, press the func/set button and scroll through the menus until you are at White Balance.

  • HT1355 can an application start and stop airplane mode?

    can a native application start and stop airplane mode on the iPhone and iPad?

    No.  It must be done manually by the phone user.

  • Hot shoe use in Manual mode.

    I need a canon camera that allows the hot shoe to work in Manual mode.  Which camera(s) do I need?

    I'm not sure what you are really asking but all Canon cameras will allow you to do this (those that have a hot shoe).  The Canon DSLR (I'm not real familiar with the point and shoots) and compatible flash will allow ETTL flash operation in manual mode, automatically fork out the right amount of light for your manual setting.

  • Syncing in Manual Mode with 2 PC's...

    I just got a refurbished 30Gb iPod yesterday. I charged it up at work, and manually synced it and it continued to say "do not disconnect" from the start...for hours...even though I only synced maybe 40 songs. I had to disconnect when I shut my computer down. When I got home, I synced it with iTunes manually at home. Got tons of music and videos no problem.
    Today when I brought it back to work and plugged it in, it says it's in restore mode. I don't want to restore b/c most of my content is on my PC at home. When I eject the iPod, it's not in restore mode, and it works fine.
    Why is the second computer insisting that it needs to be restored when it works fine? Is there a way to avoid this when syncing between 2 PC's?
    Dell   Windows XP Pro   30Gb iPod - Refurbished

    "and manually synced it and it continued to say "do not disconnect" from the start...for hours."
    It is operating normally. If you have your iPod in "Manually manage music and videos" mode, the "Do not disconnect" will not go away until you manually eject it.
    "Why is the second computer insisting that it needs to be restored"
    If you just unplugged it without ejecting it properly, then that could be why it's acting that way, not sure. You may not be able to get around that. I would just make sure that your iPod is backed up on the computer in question, then just restore it as usual, then just put it back to "Manual" mode.

  • Removing songs in manual mode

    About a year ago my computer crashed and I managed to switch ipod to manual mode until I could repopulate my itunes library. Now I've decided to put my Ipod back into manual mode and delete all my music off my PC to save space on my hard drive. I seem to recall being able to access all the music in my Ipod when it was connected. But now, I can't seem to do so, and I would like to remove some music from it, but can't figure out how. Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thanks!

    If you are updating manually, connect your iPod and when it shows in the iTunes 7 source list click on the chevron (the little triangle) to the left of the iPod icon This will display the various icons for the iPod itself, Music, Movies, TV Shows and Playlists. Click on Music and you'll see the usual song list. Find the files on your iPod that you want to remove, highlight them and delete directly as above by pressing the delete key on your keyboard.
    To select multiple items such as all the songs in an album, click on the first track in the list hold down the shift key and click on the last track to highlight the selection. Then press the delete key.
    To summarise, you start by highlighting the song/video/selection in either the iTunes library or on the iPod song list as displayed in iTunes then press the delete key on your keyboard: Deleting songs or playlists from your iPod

  • After Yosemite install MacBook Pro only starts up in Recovery Mode

    Hi,
    I installed Yosemite on my mid-2009 MacBook Pro 13" yesterday and when restarting it after the installation, it starts up in Recovery Mode. When I verify the disk in Disk Utility, it says there is no problem. I would reinstall OS X but it says I don't have enough free disk space do to that (I have around 9.5 GB). But in Recovery Mode I cannot delete files to free up disk space (at least I don't know how to do it). My latest Time Machine backup is quite old (my fault, I know...), so now I am stuck...
    Could anyone help me, I am becoming quite worried and stressed now.:(
    Thank you LOADS in advance!!!

  • Lost manual control of exposure in Manual mode 5Dmk3

    Never changed any settings as far as I know. The day before I was shooting pictures with full manual control in manual mode. I put my camera away and when I picked it up again, Manual mode is now behaving like Automatic mode when trying to shoot pictures. It is auto exposing in the LiveView. I can see the exposure changing in LiveView as I move the camera around and I cannot change the ISO or the aperture. I can bring up the ISO menu and select different ISOs but the image does not change. When I spin the aperture control wheel, the F-Stop number changes on the display, but the blades in the lens do not move and nothing changes.
    I still have full manual control when I switch to video mode, this only happens in picture mode.
    Here's a short video which shows the issue I am having.
    http://youtu.be/kQN-H2Qwsu4
    EDIT: Just noticed something. It seems that the camera WILL shoot the picture with the settings I have selected, but will not show what that exposure looks like in the LiveView. When I go into picture mode the aperture stays wide open no matter what I do, I can look into the lens and see that the aperture blades are all wide open. If I set the aperture to F10, the exposure does not change in LiveView and the blades do not move, but when I press the shutter, the blades will jump into place for a split second to take the picture at F10 and then revert back to wide open. Same thing with the ISO. So I guess I do still have manual control, but it's not much good to me if I have no preview of what that exposure looks like in the LiveView.

    Turn on exposure simulation in the shooting menu. It's in the far right red tab, fifth row down.
