• Start an adjustment with the whites and blacks?

  Martin Evening in CS6 for photographers recommend to adjust an image with exposure, contrast, and then fine tune with the shadows and highlights. Explains the use of whites and blacks only if necessary. Julieanne Kost has a pithy video on cab in which she begins by setting the white and black (which dates back to the advice of Bruce Fraser / Real World Photoshop using levels in Photoshop). http://TV.Adobe.com/watch/Photoshop-CS6-featuretour/Adobe-camera-raw-70-in-Photoshop-CS6/

  I know that I can see what works best for an image, etc.. Ask yourself what is the recommended procedure.

  I could write reams about it. Have already done.

  I will however keep this short (for me) and let someone else take a better stab.

  It is wrong to think of controls PV2012 as being something like those of other publishers.

  The bottom line: give the picture adaptations she needs, whatever you start with.

  So perhaps a better question is: How do we know what adjustments needs a photo in PV2012?

  (I warned people against trying to arrive at a single procedure that will work for all photos)

  That's all for now.

  OK, maybe a quicky:

  No matter what start you with, try to keep clear 0 or negative, shadows 0 or positive and shadows value exactly equal to the value of highlights. Once you have the photo in the ballpark in this way, no matter how you juggled exhibition & white..., then and only then, consider asymmetric values of lights and shadows.

  WARNING: this "formula" works on 90% of the photos, not 100 percent. Or it could be 0% (or 100%) depending on what you're shooting...

  Okay, I can't resist:

  Most of the pictures can be edited in this way:

  * Most critical exposure setting

  * Use - highlights for container of the upper extremity

  * Use + shadows to normalize the lower end

  * The difference in taste.

  * - black & + white to make full use of the available tonal range.

  But at the other extreme, there are these:

  * Exhibition but still critical,

  * puts in light and shadows of the sliders do not hit the sweet spots: leave at zero.

  * Use - white & + blacks for recovery & fill, respectively.

  * You may very well push contrast, although it is an image too contrasted initially. Or not...

  And then there's a whole series of photos which sit somewhere between the two...

  Confusing? Yes. PV2012 is great, but delicate and requires a completely different way of thinking and a flexible 'procedure'...

  Note: Highlights slider going positive, and cursor shadows going negative also, independently of the highlights slider for a reason. But their use in this way should be reserved for unusual cases of raw or refine already cooked jpegs, or you really know what you are doing and why you...

  One last point is critical: exhibition in PV2012 sets mainly mid-level tones, that is why it is the most critical: highlights, contrast, shadows, all hinges on a suitable exposure setting.

  Black & White adjustment are probably the biggest keys for optimal fit in PV2012, but they are more difficult to nail down, because their adaptation depends strongly on the photo, but maybe a golden rule to be broken:

  * - black & white if possible, for punchy complete histogram photos +...

  * + Black & - White tones tend to gang to the extreme endpoints of the gases, such as highlights & shadows adjustment do not understand... (or you prefer the softer look that can come, or else...).

  WARNING: This is a personal thing, and probably different people different things that work best for them...

  PS - Don't forget the curve of tone & inhabitants after basic setting (can be done over too, but it is not recommended until you have acquired sufficient experience).

• Satellite C650 - reinstall with the new hard drive

  Hello

  The hard drive in my C650 just died so I put in a replacement, and the problem I have is that I never create a recovery disc for my laptop.

  I tried to use the windows disk 7 I got with my desktop, but when I boot it I get the error ' A required CD/DVD drive driver is missing. If you have a flash driver diskette drive, CD, DVD or USB, please insert now. ".

  So, I downloaded the driver for chipset support page and excerpts to a flash drive. The installation detects these drivers "ICH9" on my USB, but after loading them, I always get an error ' no new deices could be found. Make sure that the driver files are correct and located on the driver installation media. ».

  I checked the bios and the new hard drive is detected without a doubt.
  Is there anything else I can do, short of ordering toshiba recovery disks?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  The message
  > ' Required the reader driver CD/DVD is missing. If you have a flash driver diskette drive, CD, DVD or USB, please insert now. ".
  say that your CD/DVD drive is not detected.
  So you need to check if the BIOS so the CD/DVD drive is listed. It should appear on the first page of the BIOS.

  If you want to boot from the disk and then switch on and you press F12.
  Usually, a menu should appear that allows you to choose the ODD (CD/DVD)
  Choose this option and try to boot from the CD.

• Re: Satellite C650 - problem with the devices connected to USB ports

  Hello

  Can help someone, I have a C650 and everytime I try to connect to something to him via the USB ports, it is not "found" by the computer?

  The other night, I tried to get pictures on my phone but it wasn'; work and I put it down to a problem with the phone, but today I tried to install something digital crafts for my daughter and during installation it tells you to insert the thing into the USB port and click Next, when I do that he's going through a lot of "research" and said then it can not be found.

  The laptop makes a beep sound as it would on an extraction device when you plug... I hope that makes sense. So I am now assuming that the problem is with my computer, is there something I can do to fix this?
  Thanks in advance

  Sorry should add - it's like nothing is plugged at all when it is, and it happens on two USB ports, not just one...

  Hello

  What happens with plug n play like USB mouse device?
  You are able to use an external USB mouse correctly?

  > but today I tried to install something digital crafts for my daughter and during installation it tells you to insert the thing into the USB port and click Next, when I do that he's going through a lot of "research" and said then it can not be found.
  I guess this could be a problem with the software or drivers installed.

  I searched a bit and his city that he has a software is compatible with windows vista/2000/xp. Win 7 is not mentioned do not know if this could be a problem, but in your case, I recommend asking the support of this software product for some advice.

  In addition, you can try to install this software once more, check whether this USB problem appears again.

  Hello

  Please help me with the following 2 problems:

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  (1) install VAP (value added package) and Flash memory card Support utility.

• Satellite L775D-107 is not starting and black screen

  Hey
  I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite L775D-107 and I hope you can help me.
  Since yesterday, my laptop displays a black screen. When I push the Start button, nothing happens, but you can hear it is aired but nothing more. a few hours before that I was working on it to Uni and everything was fine.

  I had the same problem a couple of weeks, and I read on the internet that he could help out the battery for 3 minutes and then press F2 and the Start button. Nothing happened, but after 2 hours I tried to start again and all of a sudden it started correctly and worked flawlessly.
  .
  Now I'm having the same problem again and I tried the same procedure but still nothing happens. Always the black screen and just the sound of the air coming out...

  I've got very important documents in United on this laptop, so I hope you can help me.

  Thank you in advance.

  Hey

• Satellite S955 starts not to POST and black screen

  Hello

  I have a problem with my s955 (14 months). He is not able to start more. When turned on, I hear only the cooling fan spins up and down and nothing more. The last time, it took almost half an hour to work around this failure. When turned on it shows no problem at all. When you stop it is better to pray. It now seems to be missing. After an hour, I see no sign of life except cooling fan activity.

  I went through all the stuff mentioned in another forum of Toshiba as turned off, remove the battery, keep and maintain the power button for at least 60 seconds. I even replaced the RTC internal Li - ion, but without success. Because it is not covered by warranty more I opened it. No sign of didn't burn except a suspicious oxidation of some contacts.

  I contacted Toshiba Italy (even if it is a U.S. model.) and I expect a possible answer next week. I ran out of the possible solution except replacement of mobo. Is there anyone around who has the same problem? Could you please give me a help?
  Thank you and best regards

  Pyder

  Hi, not Toshiba Italy news but I found a Toshiba authorized service workshop that may solve this problem. It seems that, beyond other speculations, the problem may be issued by the fuse of power mainboard (read this answer interesting of maxtek73 [http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/Batteries-and-Power/My-Toshiba-Satellite-Laptop-Will-Not-Turn-On/m-p/584008#M11147] at the end of the post). It seems reasonable. In fact, keyboard, dvd player, charge battery, hd, and cooling fan are powered by the motherboard. It seems that there is not enough current to pass initial tests before POST. This could explain why the cooling fan trying to run at maximum speed, but he can't. I had to remind that to turn on, no equipment TI push fans at max speed and then slow down to normal speed before entering the POST process. I'll have a conversation with the technician of the workshop and I'll keep you in the loop.
  Best regards

• Major problem with artifacts, reboots and black screens.

  1 HP m7790y

  2 Vista 32 bit

  3. no error message or the BSOD.

  4. no changes have been made recently.

  For about a month now, sometimes my computer shows a bunch of objects on the screen and the visuals will not change, but I think that my keyboard and mouse always work. I can do CTRL + ALT + DELETE and that the screen appears with no artifact, but as soon as I get by, artifacts return and the escape sequence does not work yet. If I have a video course or music, I hear a little, but then it gets screwed up. Then my computer is doing something akin to fade, but it is not. The GPU of the fan stops going, the screen goes black, and only the power light on my pc is on. Most of the time I have to press the power button and then turn back on again. Sometimes it restarts itself and shows a screen asking me how I want to start up.

  I used the HP Hardware Diagnostic tools and tested everything, but there is no errors for what it is. I can even play video games for long periods of time very well (Rome: Total War, The Walking Dead, Mass Effect 3, Company of Heroes). If the problem will occur, sometimes in the first 5 to 10 minutes of me having the computer. I've used Furmark with stress tests and there is no problem.

  I found another card that is the same model and use. Everything has been working fine (except for some BS that I won't get into ati catalyst graphics).

  Thank you very much for your help!

• DPS App Builder is stuck on the icons and Splash Screen step

  I'm stuck on this step and the next button is simply irrelevant. Could use comments as to why? Must folio files be on the local computer, the App Builder works from? I had created at home, doing the application to work. At the launch of the DPS of inDesign buidler and choosing create app from buidler folio Panel, he said that he read the articles okay so I thought just on Adobe server.

• Satellite L670 - stuck on the black screen

  Hello

  I have problem with my L670 after 2 years of its use.
  When I press the power button, black screen comes with a slider that is not flashing.
  I can't get into BIOS, F2, F12, nothing works.
  So I tried to remove battery, press power button / stop for 10 seconds (all I found on the web) etc and nothing worked. (only ctrl + alt + delete to reboot)
  And I discovered that * when I unplug receiver MicroUSB * for wireless mouse, laptop will start normally and I can connect when WIndows starts.

  Also I reset the default BIOS and this problem is still there.
  I used this mouse/USB for months, what could be the problem, why this is happening?

  It is really strange. Have you changed or something like update the installed BIOS?
  Can you please test it standby and Hibernate? What is the result? Everything is OK after waking up?

• HP 15 laptop: problem with the touchpad and the key "stuck."

  Hello!
   
  Last weekend, I have an irritating problem with my HP 15 laptop. Bought two years ago and upgrades to Windows 10 a year ago.
   
  First of all, my touchpad started to not work properly. It "freezes" and I can't use it until I click the ESC key, but it doesn't last and "freezes" again a few seconds later. Then, everytime I open a window where there is a text box (Start menu, edge browser, Control Panel, etc.), the number 5 is entered automatically and permanently, as if the button 5 has been blocked. I did a quick check and button 5 do not seem physically stuck.
   
  Yesterday, I restored the system to the factory settings, so I'm back to 8.1 for Windows and then upgraded to Windows 10. Everything seems to work fine, but this morning, the problem was back. Is there something I can do? What is the problem caused by Windows 10 or the computer? Should I restore it to Windows 8.1? Everything worked great til last weekend, I don't know what that was.
   
  Thank you in advance for your help!

  Welcome to the HP support community @gouch3.

  I understand that you have a problem with the keyboard and the touchpad on your laptop from HP 15.

  Have you tried to use a keyboard external and mouse at all?

  Have you tried to go to Safe Mode to see if the problems persist in there?

  Have you tried to perform a material or forced reset Reset?

  Did you do a test of material?

  Have you updated your drivers?

  It could be a driver problem to be able to look at that for you, I need your model number. I wish I could give you an answer or not, but at this point without the troubleshooting results and the model number, it is difficult for me to say.

  I can say that if everything works in point 8.1 of Windows without problem, the driver TROUBLESHOOTING is a great place to start. Please try to follow these steps for the keyboard and the touchpad of troubleshooting:

  • Beginning
  • Search for Device Manager
  • Search results, open Device Manager.
  • Click on display
  • Show hidden devices.
  • Click the arrow next to keyboards.
  • Right click on the name of the keyboard device.
  • Select uninstall.
  • Continue deleting the names of devices in the category keyboards until the feature of all the names have been uninstalled.
  • Restart the laptop twice.

  Touchpad:

  • Type of research, "Device Manager."
  • Click on Device Manager,
  • Expand mice and other pointing devices.
  • Right click on the TouchPad,
  • Click on uninstall.
  • Restart the computer laptop twice,
  • Reinstall the TouchPad card.

  I found a document of troubleshooting for you to try also called Portable keyboard troubleshooting. Please be sure to follow the steps described in this document.

  The best document I have for TouchPad problems is the use and troubleshooting of the TouchPad and ClickPad document. 

  Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant, if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers that need to put up-to-date.

  This is a great question other clients may also be questioned. When we came to a resolution, please share what has worked for you with others by marking this post as an acceptable Solution. If you want to show appreciation for my efforts today, please take a second to click the Thumbs Up button below.

  If you need assistance, I would be more than happy to continue to help you. Please re-post with the results of the resolution of the problems. Could you please also provide your model number (How can I find my model number or product number?)

• Radial and graduated filters are stuck with the selection of the red zone. All solutions?

  Hello!

  Last days I had this strange problem with my radial and graduated filters. Normally you have to hover over the center point of the filter to see the radial or graduate area it affects. It's this heavy red color.

  My problem is that this function is active at all times, unless I hit ESC or click somewhere else to deselect filters. I've never seen this problem before the upgrade to Lightroom CC. It is therefore impossible to see live changes make you with the filters and which makes it very difficult to see these small changes and the effects it has on the photos. I've managed to select a stupid option somewhere? I can't find all these settings now. Right click or by clicking on the panels have no effect either.

  If anyone seen this before? Any suggestions as what to do?

  Hit 'o' button to activate the overlay deactivation/activation
