10.5.3 upgrade screwed up my display - color depth stuck - solved
Post 10.5.3 my display is now stuck on thousands of collars whereas previously it worked and displayed fine as millions. Grays (like the top of the FF menue bar) are now white, the double arrow drop down box on this site is now teal.
Re-booting the computer, playing with Display options under System Preferences doesn't seem to do anything.
Update: Powering down, leaving computer off for a minute, letting it cool down seemed to solve the issue when re-booting. Must have been overheated or something.

It would be Mimo's responsibility to update their firmware/drivers to support OSX 10.6.3. Have you checked with them?
Did you try resetting the PRAM?

Can't Bomgar in since upgrade - Screen sharing ... disabled ..unknown display color depth
Since upgrading multiple customer systems to Mountain Lion, I am no longer able to use Screen Sharing in Bomgar. The following message appears: Screen Sharing has been disabled by the customer client. [Uknown display color depth: 0]
The only brief workaround is to tell someone on the other end to manually change the display setting to Scaling instead of Best for built-in-display will allow a one-time access as that setting immediately reverts back to Best for built-in-display. Dumbing it down might make it persist, but that isnt' feasible.
Bomgar support is closed over the weekend. I contacted Apple, and they said that there is no way to make the setting persist. That rep also didn't know of any terminal command that could be used to set the Display Resolution to Scaled either.
If there were a terminal command to set it to Scaled, that would help much because the Command Shell option in Bomgar does work, and I am able to launch a terminal.
I also tried to see if there were any settings I could manipulate in Screen Sharing in OS X, but there were none. I am getting the same result with Screen Sharing enabled or not enabled.
Anyone else experiencing this?I'm sure you've tried reading https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57084
and http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Configuring
and I'm sure you've done
aticonfig --initial
I had to use https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AT … leshooting, specifically the part about disabling EXAPixmaps to make my card work.
What model is your ATI card? that would help. A LOT of ATI cards were dropped from proprietary support with the Catalyst driver. -
Hi there.
After an application-crash (After Effects) and cold restart my monitor-color-depth suddenly switched from millions of colors to maybe several hundreds of colors. I've tried cleaning the caches, throwing out preferences-files (out of library) and also resetting the color-depth by using third-party-applications. Still not working. I suppose it's some kind of problem in one of the preferences-files in the library, but I don't know which one.
The "About This Mac" section shows that the monitor would show some "Millios Of Colors".
As I can not work like this I made a new user-account. In the new user-account everything runs smoothly but for sure I would like to use my old user-account with all my settings and preferences instead of switching to a total blank one that I have to modify again to fit my needs. Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong or how to succesfully force the display to display millions-of-colors again?
When I log into my old user-account the display first shows normally, then switches to "hundreds-of-colors" after a split-second. Is there any way to slow down this process and monitor which preference-file the computer is loading in exactly this moment?
Also weird: when I connect to my old user account via remote access / screensharing (vnc://...) then the display looks normal from the remote computer.
Any ideas would be welcome. Don't know what else to do...
Cheers, AeiouWhat does it say if you go to About This Mac -> More Info -> Graphics & Displays -> Pixel Depth
1: Try resetting the PRAM.
2: Go to System Preferences -> Displays -> Color -> Select another profile or calibrate
3: Go to System Preferences -> Universal Access -> Slide the Contrast bar all the way to the left
Might end up just being a plist to snag though. -
After iOS 8.2 upgrade, screen no longer displays color.
I have restarted the phone several times.I have played with the accessibility settings (grayscale and invert colors) but that has not solved the problem. when I turn my phone and the orientation switches, I see a brief flash of color, but then it is gone (when grayscale is on there is no color flash).
Hey Markwoody,
Wow! That definitely sounds frustrating, but good job so far isolating and troubleshooting the issue. We have a few more steps that we can try in an attempt to resolve this issue:
First, it sounds like you have tried restarting your phone. Let’s try a reset instead:
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
https://support.apple.com/en-us/ht201559
How to reset
- You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
- To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
If the issue persists, we’ll want to restore your device to factory settings and test once more. You can backup your device, but be sure to restore it as new first for isolation purposes, as restoring a backup can sometimes restore the same issues that you were experiencing before.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support

Display color setting stuck at "Lowest (4 bit)"
I'm experiencing a problem that so far I haven't been able to resolve.
I am running Windows XP Home Edition, MSI Graphis Card G3TI200 Pro, Sound Blaster Audigy MP3+, 512 MB DDR RAM, 80 GB HD with plenty of room.
My system was running just fine but I was having trouble accessing a web page so I thought I might restart the computer to reload it's brains (so to speak). When the computer re-booted my color setting had changed to "Lowest (4 bit)" and when I try to reset it I don't have any other setting available.
I have downloaded the latest drivers, cold started the system, re-seated the graphic card, checked memory cards. It appears to me that everything is as it should be except the color setting. Wanted to check the voltages but the program that does that needs a minimum of 256 colors to run :(
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem is and how to fix it?
Thanks, JimJim,
I am glad to hear you are all set now.
The reason I always use the nVidia Drivers for any GeForce card is: (This is the release order of Drivers.)
1) nVidia Makes the Drivers. (Same ones they post on their website)
2) Then the Card Makers get the same drivers and modify them so their logo show on the drivers along with some minor changes. In MSI's case they add their MSI Tabs.
So if you want the latest drivers with the most up to date fixes, you go:
nVidia for GeForce
ATI for Radeon
nVidia for nForce
VIA for 4in1
SiS For their Motheboard Drivers
Intel for their Motherboard Drivers
Creative for Live! And Audigy Drivers
Logitech for Mouse Drivers
etc.
It does not matter who sells the hardware, I use the Chipset Maker's Drivers whenever I can.
Take Care,
Richard -
Can a Mac Pro (2.66 ghz duel core) be upgradable to support Thunderbolt displays and other devices.
Can a Mac Pro (2.66 ghz duel core (4cores)) be upgradable to support Thunderbolt displays and other devices. Does this need to be done through the Graphics card expansion or a additional card to be inserted?
No. There is no way to upgrade any Mac Pro older then the cylindrical 2013 Mac Pro to ThunderBolt.
The requirements of Thunderbolt require a totally redesigned motherboard and chip set rather any plugin cards. These motherboard were never developed for older Mac Pros. -
Im the photographer... the display color change when i upgrade to SL..
I m a photographer, after i upgraded to SL, all my black and white photo are yellowish. The black are not total black and the white are not total white like in os x 10.5.x. Are any others photographer upgrade their os and face this problem too?
Check that the correct profile is selected for your display (in Sys. Prefs. -> Display -> Color)
After installing SL mine was not set to the correct profile. I fixed it, and it has remained set to the correct one since.

Display color problem - asking for a color solution
So I have this serious problem with my Macbook Pro.
Some months ago I suddenly saw green colors in black area's and pink line colors in white areas.
Text on white background was extremely frustrating to read, since it was surrounded with small pink lines and flickering.
Note this was only near max white and max black areas of the screen.
I found out that it was due to a hardware failure, since slightly bending the laptop (!!) would remove the problem
Attaching an external monitor doesn't show the defect, and booting in Windows 7 (bootcamp) still shows the same screen problem.
Searching the web, it appears that it was a NVidia related heat problem, known to my model, but the offer to get it fixed for free by apple (since it was a known issue) had already run out december 2012 (!!). I think my laptop is about 3-4 years old, and the battery pretty much died on me the first year, probably due to heavy usage and the graphic card getting too hot. There are small sweat/corosion marks of where my hand are placed when typing, on the aluminium, due to how hot my laptop got. It sometimes got so hot I couldn't touch the aluminium on the top left corner near the 1-2-Q-W keys.
Fixing my Macbook is too expensive. Just getting someone to look at it to diagnose it (without repairing it), costs a lot in my country, and we have no official apple store, only authorized resellers. I know it's probably the motherboard, because I tried to unscrew the backlid and gently touch certain area's on the motherboard with a pen, while the computer was still running, to find out where the short circuit was. I only started this kind of trying to "self service" it, because I knew how expensive replacing the motherboard would be (if that was even the issue?).
I have multiple times tried to place something up against the sensitive area's on the motherboard, and then screw back the backlid, to put some pressure on it, which at first worked brilliantly and removed the color issue for some weeks, before it started reappearing. I think the heat from the laptop slowly makes the motherboard adapt, and the problem returns. Extremely frustrating indeed.
I hope I can one day afford a Macbook Air, but until then, I don't want to throw more money after my poor macbook (which I pronbably can't sell anyway, like previous mac's I've owned, the day get a new. It's too worn out + battery got only 5min on a full charge).
I think it's wisest to rather save the money for a Macbook Air, and try to survive until then. Therefor I was hoping someone could help me with a temporary solution.
In Windows 7, using the Nvidia Control Panel to apply color management, I was able to adjust the individual color output values, and thereby remove the the screen issue! Maybe the colors are not as good anymore, but it sure beats not getting a headache after 10minutes trying to read an article.
I tried the same thing on the mac, using Preferences>Displays>Color>Calibrate, but this guide is much harder to use to get a decent result (since only the last 2 options really makes a difference, but changes the colors completely, which I can't change by going back to the first color settings since then it just undos the last step I just did. I'm currently writing this with a very blue pale screen.
I also tried to use ColorSync Utility, expecting to enter values manually, but contrary to the articles I read about using ColorSync, I cannot edit the values in the color profile I created (I can only change the ASCII text input fields). Trying to save the profile gives me the error 'The Document "screenbug.icc" could not be saved.'
I tried to look for alternative color calibration software, but most of them required hardware, or expensive full version to unlock the settings I needed (like SuperCal).
I hope some tech savy users out there that can help me, or at least make my life with my macbook less of a pain.
All help is much appreciated!!
PS: I've been a loyal Mac user since always. Few things I've learned is:
1) Don't buy the first version of new hardware. Wait about a month for reviews, to check for issues. I had a problem with an expensive MacPro that had to be replaced, but luckily for free since it was Apple's mistake. Sometimes Apple products also get minor internal changes/fixes without announcements, to help solve reported issues from early buyers.
3) Take care of you Mac, especially so because you can often sell your used Mac's for quite a value the day you want to upgrade. I've sold about 3 Mac's in my lifetime, for quite a gain, though I don't expect this macbook to do as well, if at all. But it's normally something to be cautious about.
3) Don't order custom configurations from the Apple Store, if you can live without it (+ it's usually crazy overprices). I payed extra to get the NVidia GeForce 9600M, and was happy with it for the first couple of years, but is now causing me all the problems I have today + made my Macbook worthless.
Stick with what the default configuration if possible, as other configurations might not have been tested carefully.Who exactly is your comment "I am asking you to fix this problem soon" directed at?
Remember that you are posting on a user to user forum so nobody can really help you. If you want to give feedback to Apple, then contact them directly at http://www.apple.com/feedback.
Also, if you have an iPhone 3G and iOS 4.2.1 is the latest software that you can install on your phone, then there is absolutely nothing that anyone can do to fix the problem if you want to install Skype that requires iOS 4.3 - what do you think anyone can magically do?
iPhone 3G is a very old phone now and if you want to install Skype on your phone, then you need to go out and buy a new iPhone - either a 4s or a 5. Nothing more to it. Buy a new phone. -
10.9.3 update display color change
Hello all,
Is it only me or have more people noticed a change in the display color (or color profile) since the latest 10.9.3 update?
I updated a moment ago while working on some graphic designs. After restart I could clearly see the change as I used a very light (237 235 221) background color and it looks certainly different now. I checked the color profiles and I still use the Adobe RGB (1998) as I did before the update.
Light conditions in the room are the same, my eyes are stil the same, no huge amounts of coffee since the upgrade either.
I can live with this but would like to know if something begins to happen with my computer or wether it is a more common problem, then I can rest asure a fix will arrive soon ;-)
All the best!

2008 macbook pro 15" (Santa Rosa) weird display color and vertical lines
I have the 2008 macbook pro 15" (Santa Rosa). After my upgrade to mac os x lion (10.8.2), I noticed that periodically the screen either turns to weird display color and have horizontal lines on screen. This happens mostly during start up and lasts for about a min or two. Does this happen because of a faulty graphics card? I have NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 256 MB card on this macbook pro. Please advice
Nope - it sounds as if you've GPU issues and the discrete GPU is soldered onto the logic board. take your new machine into your local Apple Store for a replacement. Don't wait too long!

I didn't post this in the displays or macbook pro forums, because it seems more like a software driven thing (i'm on a macbook pro). Altough it has to do with the photoshop connection to the output and viewing in preview & firefox.
In my photoshop settings i have selected color-lcd color settings. But when i open it in preview or firefox it appears desaturated. I tried different settings but couldn't find the perfect solution.
What's the best solution to sync this properly within os-x and photoshop (and/ or other tools), which color settings to choose from all the list so it appears correct everywhere?
thanksare you sure those are profiles you created?
anyway, the location of a profile can be found by going into system prefs -> display -> color and keeping the mouse over a profile. after a few seconds the path to the profile is displayed. but if the application doesn't let you delete it, you might not wanna screw with that, I don't know
edit: I just saw that personally created profiles reside in ~/Library/ while all other profiles are in some system folder (/System or /Library). If your profiles are really in your personal folder (so ~/Library) then I guess(!) you can delete them

Hello,
My MacBook is running super slow. I downloaded Memory Clean from the App Store and I regularly have 15MB or free memory available.
In Activity Monitor I usually see the following:
~800 MB kernel_task
~500 MB softwareupdated
~500 MB Image Capture Extension
In Console, I see mdworker.bundle errors attributed to UID's: 501, 503, 1422
My current UID from what I can tell is 502. Other UID's left over from various upgrades are 89, 99, 235.
Lastly, Drive Genius is giving me a Drive Integrity Warning. But I can't create a bootable clone.
I have no idea if the above problems are related. I'd like to think I just run a lot of stuff that eats my memory and upgrading the RAM would be the easy path. What say you all?
-Jeff

Bridge displays color images as b&w
I assume this has something to do with settings in Bridge CS4, my platform is MacBook Pro OS 6.8.10.
This question might confuse some people. To beging with, I do shoot my images in RAW files, I even have Bridge convert them to DNG files.
Upon download the images are displayed in color as they should be for RAW files. After editing images in Camera RAW, I convert most all images to sRGB. When some of those edited images come back to Bridge, they might be presented in B&W, though no color is lost to the file upon displaying in Photoshop, and I did not edit the file to be a B&W image. I have DNG, Canon RAW, Tif and Jpeg files, and most of these are displayed in color, but some are not, and I have not figured out the missing link just yet. So to be clear, I have Jpeg color images, displaying as b&w images, but they are color images. Only b&w images should be displayed as b&w.
This problems started once I learned I could edit one image in photoshop out of a series of images, then after editing, i could bring the single photo file back to bridge, and then copy/paste image settings onto a groups of images in Bridge, and all those images would then have the same adjustments made to them as a batch edit adjustment.
But now sometimes I get a B&W display on some images even when I do not apply a Bridge settings edits, and when I never edited the image for a B&W display. I has to a setting somewhere in Bridge, and I just have not figured it out yet.
Thanks in advance for all suggestions:ssprengel wrote:
Yammer asked a pertinent question that remains unanswered—is that “settings” badge (small lines-triangles-in-a-circle) shown on the B/W image thumbnails (at least). If you’re not sure, then include a screenshot of a few Bridge thumbnails where some are color and some are B/W, using the little camera icon on the web version of the forum messages.
And the answer is NO!. I only have those showing up associated with the .DNG files (Camera RAW)
Another similar question would be if you see a B/W thumbnail in Bridge, try doing a right-click (or whatever the Mac equivalent is) and choose Open in Camera Raw. Is the image in B/W or color in Camera Raw.
A <Control Click> (on MAC), opens the .jpeg file in b&w, as shown in the thumbnail.
Can you upload three versions of one of the images that display as B/W: the original PSD/raw/TIF file, a normal Save As JPG that is in color, and a Save For Web JPG that is B/W? Use something like http://www.dropbox.com/ and post a public download link to the images, here.
NO, I thought I explained that real well. Only the .jpeg file that was saved through the "Save for Web" processing ( that is, the a jpeg the goes through greater compression to reduce image file size for web display), is the image file process that produces the b&w thumbnail in Bridge ONLY. All opened images, of various file formats (ie: DNG, Psd, Tif, Jpeg, & Jpeg for Web), all present Color presentations (for editing in Photoshop, and or in display browsers). It is only the thumbnail of that particular jpeg formatting processing for Web Images that produces the b&w image "THUMBNAIL" in Bridge.
When you Save As JPG or For Web, are you ever overwriting the original image with a new one or do you always save the PS-edited image with a new name?
No, never. I leave my RAW files, as RAW originals, and work on newly names images files.
A theory about what is happening is that Bridge uses Camera Raw to generate its thumbnails, and the images that are B/W have some embedded Camera Raw setting, perhaps pasted from a different filetype, that makes CR think the image should be rendered as B/W, but when you open the images on Photoshop, you are opening them directly, without using the Camera Raw plug-in, so any embedded settings are ignored, and the image displays in its original state without the settings having been applied.
It makes since, (what you are saying), and it certainly does respond in that fashion. Your suggestion to open Ctrl Click, or Right Click to open the thumbnail in Camera RAW, was an interesting test, and the response was to open the previously save color image with a b&w thumbnail, into Camera RAW as a b&w image. So Camera RAW is responding to what is in the xmp settings that describes this images thumbnail to be displayed b&w. It is weird that a browser does not.
As to what is in the window selections for the "Save for Web" editing windows, Presets for jpeg are :
Progressive
Optimize
Embed Color Profile
And I use Embed Color Profile.
Even the Preview button at the bottom of the window, shows the color image as displaying color.
I vaguely remember about a year ago doing some CS 4 Photoshop and Bridge web tutorials from an unnamed tutoring website and guy named D_k_ . It is his fault. Just kidding, I actually enjoy those tutorial.
**** Okay, this is perhaps originating from Camera RAW presets, where you can apply previously made settings to other images and then saved them as Presets. Though I don't have this checked in Camera RAW ( still something goofy is going on there), I did find that in Bridge I can reset the individual "saved for Web" image thumbnail back to the the color image by :
Right Click (Ctrl Click, MAC) on the thumbnail
menu down to the "Development Settings" and select :
"Previous Conversion", and this presents the color thumbnail.
I have now tested all the Camera RAW settings in Camera RAW, by opening an image in each one of these :
Image Settings
Camera RAW Defaults
Previous Conversion
Custom Settings
and then reducing image file size, and saving for the web, while changing file name, and each and every one of these Settings produces a Sepia Toned thumbnail. I found out the images were a subtle Sepia Toned image by enlarging the Bridge Thumbnails bigger for a better view. So I can correct the thumbnail after it has been created, but so far, I can't get the thumbnail to be correct on first creation of the web saved jpeg image file. Regular jpeg image file thumbnails save correctly.
