    Hi deaweb,

    Please upgrade to the latest version of Lightroom CC 2015.6

    Make sure that your camera is connected via the 'PC connection' in the Communication tab.

    Also note that for 5 d Mark III, a card must be in the camera for attachment to work properly.

    See the difficulty of shooting tethered in Lightroom and let us know if this helps.

  • How can you put in place the first generation Airport Express with Yosemite

    Is it still possible? If this is not the case, can itbee with an iPhone or an iPad?

    Athanasios

    Are you sure that you have a 1st generation AirPort Express?

    It was the 1st version of 802.11"n" products... and you will probably have a lot more older 802.11' b/g ' device that was used long before that Apple has started using the name of 'generation' in 2008.

    Please look carefully at the side of your AirPort Express Terminal to locate the model number. It is difficult to see gray inscription on white background, so you may need good lighting and reading glasses.

    The model of a 1st generation AirPort Express is A1264.

    If you see A1084 or A1088, these are much older devices "b/g" which ranks Apple as obsolete... then they have not been supported for the past 3-4 years in the latest operating systems.

    So again, you have... or can borrow... a Mac running Leopard (10.5.x) or operating system Snow Leopard (10.6.x) or a PC that has AirPort Utility for Windows installed on the device, you can administer the older devices, A1084 and A1088 like that.

  • To Access SOUL for iProcurement, what the user needs to be put in place as a buyer?

    Hello

    We are on Oracle R12.1.3.

    We are setting in motion the approval (TEA) of iProcurement and purchase management engine.

    We're about to entrust the responsibilities of the SOUL "Approvals Management Administrator" and "Approvals Management Business Analyst" a user USER123

    Must USER123 be set up as a buyer to create rules of the SOUL?

    Kind regards

    Natalia

    Rules of SOUL for iProcurement are defined for the applicant. Then to test the rule of the SOUL itself, you don't have to be a buyer.

    In addition, the responsibility of configuration may be granted to any employee (of THE Department) who may not be a buyer in the role.

    So the answer is "not necessary".

  • How can I disable the menu drop-down list on the back button?

    I use a laptop and my hands are not too clever. Whenever I click on the 'back' button, I get the drop-down list, which means that I must then back up my hand to the pad (gently!) to move the pointer, and then try again. It may take me several attempts to turn back a site now!

    I searched for hours how activate the drop-down list, nothing is done and even looked through all the settings in: config to try to find a way around it. Seriously impact my ability to use my laptop on the web now, so if someone can you please come up with a way to return to the old back button, with no menu when my finger slow old cannot move pretty fast down the key, I would be very grateful.

    There are two other ways to return to a page.

    • Right click on a box empty page you visit and use the dos command
    • From the keyboard, press {Alt + left arrow}

  • Back button focus for A6000 does not not for the focus and recompose

    All,

    I don't know if the focus and recompose work for my A6000.

    Here are my settings:

    AF w/shutter OFF

    Pre - AF OFF

    AEL w/shutter OFF

    AF-AEL button on

    My sequence:

    1. press the AEL button to focus on a subject by using the central development area

    2. release the focus of the "back" button

    3 recompose to follow the rule of thirds

    4. press the shutter button to take the picture.

    The subject is not to the point when I recompose.

    However, if I just developed and click on without redial, the subject is net.

    Has anyone tried focus and recompose using A6000? Maybe, I have a faulty camera that I need to send it back to Sony for repair.

    Thank you!

    Hi fxleonardo,

    Welcome to the community of Sony!

    Based on your post, you use the AEL button to lock focus on your subject and then recompose the shot. The rule of thirds, I guess when you crop the picture, you're shooting the subject out of the center of the image. And if yes, then I suggest changing your focus area -wide or area. This lets focus you on the subjects or those who are in a different area on the frame. I also suggest changing the mode of development according to the movement of your subject. It is preferable to use AF - S with the emphasis of the "back" button when your subject is motionless.

  • Back button focus with the 6 d

    I can't get the focus of the "back" of my 6 d (AF-ON) button to work.  After you follow the instructions on the Canon Website on how to implement, the right button does nothing.  Auto focus works only with the shutter button.  I have the function set to "P" which I understood to be okay.  Reset the camera to factory would help?  I'd rather not have to send the camera to Canon for repair of a single button.  Case of the unit was bought new and is still under warranty.

    Thank you

    Glad to hear you got BBF put in place. It takes a bit of practice, but soon becomes second nature for emphasis in this way.

    I don't know what you mean by "choice of the AI Servo.

    Are you new on Canon cameras and systems development? Just in case you are...

    Like most Canon cameras, the 6 d has three modes of automatic update: One Shot, AI Focus and AI Servo.

    One Shot is intended for stationary subjects. The update is performed, then stops and locks, and Confirmation of development is given (the Green LED in the viewfinder, red flash of the AF point in the viewfinder, and if it is enabled, the "beep"). If it moves, you or the subject, or if you change the focal length of the zoom, to refocus you must lift the pressure completely on the button update (whether of BBF or a half press of the shutter button), then reapply.

    It is very important to remember is when you use a zoom, since most modern are "varifocale" designs that does not maintain focus when the focal length is changed by zooming. If you use only one zoom, you need either: set the focal length first, before focusing. Alternatively, do not forget to refocus after zooming. Or, use instead the AI Servo.

    Because development stops and locks after that he is suffering from a sudden, it's a good way if you use a technique of "focus and recompose.

    AI Servo is designed for use with moving subjects. In fact, this is the mode to use each time the distance of the photographer and the subject changes for any reason, or if using a zoom and by changing the focal length. HAVE Servo will never block. Constantly, it measures the distance and updates the development, as long as keep you the pressure on the back button or hold down the shutter button depressed half, depending on how you have the camera set up.  HAVE Servo crashes ever, so there is no Confirmation of focus given. You must learn to trust the camera and yourself. It's working properly.

    HAVE unusable Servo with the technique of "focus and recompose", except BBF is used. If the shutter button is always activated AF, it will cause the camera to focus elsewhere, when you try to take the picture after the restructuring. However if using BBF, all you have to do is raise the pressure of your thumb on the button to stop the development, allowing the use of AI Servo with "focus and recompose.

    HAVE Servo is also ideal for use with zooms varifocale... given that the focus is continually updated the focal length of the lens is changed.

    But he can be very good, AI Servo is not quite exact to the One Shot can be. So critical attention, when possible, use One Shot (Note: Live View and separate focusing system used is even more precise, although it is slower.) Much slower on most of the models... 70 D has a new system that improves a little focus Live View).

    AI Focus is not actually a mode of development at all. He is supposed to decide for you, the subject is in motion or not and then move to the use as appropriate: One Shot or AI Servo. Frankly, I almost never use this mode. It may be better with the modern, but older cameras I tried it had a delay while the camera was "decide" mode to use, and which led me to miss some shots. Also, I prefer to choose my own mode of development, and since I use BBF, I can just leave my cameras in AI Servo most of the time. The word 'pro' oriented Canon models (1 d series cameras) have even an AI Focus mode. They have just two: One Shot and AI Servo.

    There are a few "tweaks" to the AF systems, depending on the camera model, for example to set the priorities for follow-up or the ease with which "distracted" the AF system is if something momentarily intrudes between you and the subject.  Consult your instruction manual for that specific adjustment can be made with 6 d... I don't have so can't tell from experience.

    There is a very useful series of three videos on auto focus systems Canon on YouTube, posted by B & H Photo and Rudy Winston of featuring Canon USA... Each video is long about half an hour and the first one is: highly recommended http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAx86nblZ2g , watching all three for additional info, even if they are a few years now and don't specifically talk about the focus 6 d system (5 d Mark II and the original 5 d AF systems are quite similar to 6 d, except that they have less than two points and have 6 in option hidden 'help' points available in AI Servo mode).

    I hope this helps.

    The back button often responds with a drop down menu of the story rather than simply go back to the previous page. There used to be a small arrow for that, why did you do that?

    When I left click on the back instead of the browser navigation back button, I go almost every time to get the list of previous browsing history or it will just doing nothing until I click on the new button. The history of combination of button "return" rather than a separate between the historical click of the buttons box is the problem. Combined with my arthritic fingers of aging that is. If I was as fast as I used to be I guess it wouldn't be a problem. I liked the separate history area. This action combination navigation / buttons story scenario is problematic. I'm fairly certain that if I find it quite disturbing to bring to your attention that there are others (old beards) in the same boat I am.

    Thanks for listening

    Use one of the following methods to open the tab history list:

    • Right-click on the back or next button

  • How to avoid the focus problem when browsing via browser back button

    Hello

    I am facing a problem in setting focus on the buttons.
    Please see application: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=47869:2

    login details:
    Workspace: vsanthanam
    user: vijay
    PSWD: apex_demo

    In this application, I have 2 pages.
    #2 has the "submit" button
    Page no. 3 contains the Cancel button

    The two buttons are basic HTML and can be accessed using access key ALT + s and ALT + c.

    The problem is:
    When I go back to the previous page (pgid #2) of the application using back button of the browser pgid IE #3.
    due to the onFocus event located in the button "submit", control returns to pgid #3.

    Is there a possible way to set the focus to other elements. so that whenever IE brower back button, application would stay in
    page #2.


    I took approaches:
    -------------------------
    If we use onclick, onfocus instead and then the problem remains because we have onfocus = "this.click (); in equipping the Accesskey.
    Another way is onKeyup event. If we use onKeyup, we can avoid this browser back problem, but disappears from the access keys functions.

    Pointers on this would be a great help.

    Thank you very much
    -Vijay

    PLEASE NOTE: I have created intentionally two buttons on each page. It is necessary to have HTML buttons with the key features of access,
    otherwise application gives a few flaws in HTML accesskey.

    Hi Vijay,

    Crikey, aren't annoying browsers! It took a while to get out, but I've updated your SUBMIT1 button attributes:

    class="t20Button" AccessKey="s" tabindex="-1" onclick="javascript:this.blur();doSubmit('SUBMIT1');" onfocus="javascript:this.blur();doSubmit('SUBMIT1');"
    

    Note that I removed the spare semicolons you after each attribute - these are only required in javascript code.

    The important point to note are the statements of "this.blur" () - this tells the browser to move away from the current item to the next. On your page, only for this purpose, I have added a text element of Temp - I am assuming that your actual page will have at least one other element on the page that will accept the focus? Everything gets focus of the call "this.blur ()", should be the element with focus when the Back button is used.

  • Using the "back button" update for the LCD screen on the 60 d

    I used this method all the time, but now when I push on the development of the "back" button, it snaps as it is to take a picture, but no image is recorded on the SD card. When I look through the viewfinder and use the button "return" of discussion, it works perfectly.  I would like to know how to get back to the old method of development on the LCD screen, with the emphasis of the "back" button.  My Canon is a 60 d

    You must go to the menu and move the quick mode to Live Mode.  In fast mode, when you press on the "back" button, the mirror flips down (click) and the camera tries to focus.  He has not yet made the photo.  To take a photo, you must listen to the AF confirm beep, then press the shutter button.  Quick mode is in fact the "snail", in my opinion .  Read more about this on page 160-168 of this manual.

  • What settings should I use for the rear button focus put in place for the d5 mark 3? TIA

    5 d Mark 3

    When you press the menu button, highlight on (using the knob on the front of the camera) menu "C.Fn2: disp.» "/ Operation" orange. (it's the icon of a camera that has an index of points for a light meter below - right of the wrench, to the left of the star icon).

    Each of these menus on the 5 d III have several pages.  This is the 2nd page (the 2nd point from left to right) who has the category of "custom controls".  Note that (using the wheel on the back this time) and click on the set"" button.

    Which displays a menu showing each of the important controls on the back of the camera and what they do.  Highlight the icon for the shutter button (this modifies the behavior of a half-press) and change to 'measure and AF start' to just 'start of counting.

    "AF-ON" button (on the back of your camera) is probably already put 'measure and AF Start' (I think that this is the default factory setting).

    If you're not so much focus to enable back-button (which is probably already active) you're more "power off" the focus when the shutter button is pressed to halfway.

    Good luck
