Tonecurves, Levels and Colorspaces. Still not getting it...
Hi,
I am new to Lightroom, and I am asking what may be obvious. But I have done my research and read as many tutorials and forum posts as possible, but I am still having difficulties with quite an obvious task (I think!)
Like many other people posting I was initially suprised that Lightroom doesn't have a levels feature like what I am so used to in Photoshop. After reading lots of posts about this, I can completely understand the benefits of Lightroom's methods, and I am trying to change my workflow accordingly.
However, in a few examples (pretty much all using underwater photography) where Photoshop's levels can achieve better results so quickly, I cannot achieve the same results in Lightrooms Tonecurve, for all of my trying.
Experimenting with changing the colourspace in Photoshop (from Adobe RGB to ProPhoto), I now realise that I also can't achieve what I want using Photoshop's levels when using ProPhoto. So my problem is really that I can't create what I want to, using ProPhoto colour space.
My perfect solution would be to change the colour space in Lightroom to Adobe RGB or sRGB. However, I know I can't.
Here is the original photo.

Below is the effect I would like to create in Lightroom, however this was created very quickly in Photoshop using levels.
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B9EYZF46Q9p0MEdDbGN4Nng4bVU
And finally, this is the closest I can get in Lightroom.
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B9EYZF46Q9p0WHNOYXlkLUpjaG8
So, my question is - how can I create the Photoshop like image, using Lightroom? If anyone can show me the settings to achieve this result, I would sincerely appreciate your help.
(I know some people may prefer the Lightroom image above, but that is not my question...)
Thanks in advance
Dave
Nelu,
Yours still has a CYAN cast to the picture. The white balance is still off.
Get the whie balance in line and the rest falls into place. Here is my version from above
with added saturation and a paraametric curve pulled on the yellow-orange material to
darken it closer to the op's wishes.
Mr London's version.
Op"s desired appearance.
It is not all about speed, it is about getting a quality development.

I am being prompted for the questions for my apple ID. I have put what I think are the answers and it is still not letting me purchase games from my account. I try to send the answers to my e-mail and I am not getting them. I had account issues about a year ago where my id was spelled wrong. Could this be associated with that?

iPhoto got videos my phone doesn't and that i need. when i synchronize my photos including videos they are still not getting on my phone. i need help...
You aren't running iOS if you are using iPhoto, or a Classic operating system. Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac and find out what you really are running, and then use this link to post in the right place:

I change phones and i am not getting regular txt messages because somehow the messages are still sending through imessage which i no longer have.... I deleted my phone number from the account though as per instructiions from the phone carrier and is still not working...Any help?
Hello jn_andrade,
It sounds like you are no longer getting text messages becuase your Apple ID is still using your phone number for iMessage. I would use these steps to unlink your phone number from your account:
Unlink a phone number
To remove a phone number from an Apple ID, sign out of FaceTime and Messages on your iPhone:
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
This should remove your phone number from other devices using the same Apple ID with FaceTime and Messages. If the phone number is still available on other devices after you sign out of FaceTime and iMessage on the iPhone, you may need to sign out of iMessage and FaceTime on all your devices, then sign in to FaceTime and Messages again on devices you want to use.
Note: If you no longer have access to the iPhone that is using the number you want to remove, reset your Apple ID password.
From: iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage

E.g. it keeps typing "Kareem" when I am actually saying "Corinne".
So how do we train Siri to understand my English despite my obvious accent?

Sorry last question got knocked back my ipad and iPhone on two different levels and I am not able to play through Facebook so not able to progress or unlock next level through Apple store. Don't know how to resolve problem
Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
Sync Contacts:
Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone

Excise rate and value is not getting defaulted from the purchase order
Hi all,
While capturing excise invoice , the excise rate and value is not getting defaulted from the purchase order and in Excise Item Tab BED,AED,ECS is Zero at both header as well as item level for only one material in STO process and if we are doing same process taking other material all things are coming perfectly and We are maintaining condition with respect to vendor,plant and material combination.Any input related to this will be helpfull and rewarded.
Regards
VishalHi,
Follow STO Process for this;
1.Create a vendor for the company code of receiving plant, using account group: 0007 using T-Code XK01.
2. Assign this vendor to Delivering plant
Go to XK02 >Purchasing view>Extras>Add. Purchasing data>Plant
3. Create internal customer with the sales area of the vendor. Go To XD01
4. In pricing procedure determination relevant to STO, assign document Pricing Procedure and customer pricing procedure appropriate for STO to get the pricing in the invoice.
5. Maintain condition records for the relevant pricing condition.
6. Some more setting for STO: Go to MM> Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO > define shipping data for plants > Go to Receiving plant >assign customer here & Supplying SA (for billing) to Receiving plant here
7. Go to MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO > define shipping data for plants > Go to Supplying plant and assign the sales area of receiving plant.
8. Go to MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO > assign delivery Type & Checking rule
Assign the delivery type to document type. In this case, Delivery type NLCC is assigned to Document type NB
9. Go to MM> Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO > Assign document Type, One step Procedure, Under delivery tolerance
Assign the document type NB to supplying plant and receiving plant
10. After all settings, Create the STO using T-Code: ME21N and maintain pricing conditions of freight and Save.
11. In supplying plant Maintain condition record in sales using VK11 the same will flow in receiving plant when referring the OBD no during MIGO.
10. Create Delivery: VL10G
12. Picking, PGI: VL02N
13. Billing: VF01
Save the document and its done

With respect, there is no way that upgrading your iPhone will erase the photos on your computer. WHy not tell us what happened exactly, nd how it relates to iPhoto. If, along the way, you can tell us what version of iPhoto, that might help to.

I deleted the playlists on my iPhone and when I now try to synchronize with my iTunes account to put the music back, nothing happens and I do not get the music back on my iPhone. Anyone who knows why that could be? Grateful for any suggestions!
I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question. Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing. I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
My playlists "ARE" in my iphone 4s. They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer.
When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes. I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes: Music, Movies, TV shows, books. That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS" but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone. Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this. I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer -
I just dumped thousands of emails from my icloud storage, as it was full. That was about 35 hours ago, I'm still not getting emails. I'm no where near full now....how long before I will get emails again?
Does anyone have an answer to this problem? It's been 4 or 5 days now and iCloud still says I have 0kb of 5GB available, and 6.1GB of mail on iCloud. I guess that's better than yesterday when it said I had 8.3GB of mail. Does anyone know if it simply takes Apple a week to actually empty a mailbox?
thanks in advance, hopefully tomorrow it says I have only 4GB of non-existent mail and I can start using it again... -

The air port on my imac went off and i can not get it to work
my air port on the imac weny off and i can not get it to work now
Apple used to use airport name for everything.. is this the internal wireless card?? Or external airport router?
If it is the internal wireless card, is it still listed in system profile.. and do a hardware test with your original CD.
See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509
The problems with Mavericks are very great.. if you upgrade installed anything can happen.. a common feature is the internal wireless card fails to work.
Give details and we can figure it out.
Here is discussion about the same thing as I think has happened to your imac in macbook.
