Why are NEF files desaturating when selected in CS3 Bridge?

I recently started shooting in RAW but when I select the images in CS3 Bridge, they desaturate. It seems to only affect NEF files and not jpegs.

Read the link in this post. Should help you.

Why are my photos desaturated when I export out of Lightroom 5 and editing with VSCO Film filters?

I have been excited working with VSCO Film presets, however when I apply them and go to export out of Lightroom 5 on my Windows 8 computer, my images are previewing very desaturated and muted in color. Some images are below. I thought it was a Color SPace issue, but when exported as sRGB as well as in its original space of Adobe RGB1998 it is still desaturated. Any help?? In Lightroom the colors are right, but my preview application is different.
Thank you!

Hi ssprengel,
Here's some clarification:
Here's a screenshot of my raw image in lightroom without any presets:
Here is a screenshot of my raw image with the presets (the way I want it to look upon export):
Here is a of the jpeg exported out of LR:
(on my screen the jpg looks like what it should when I attach it, but I know once I post this it will not look like it. That's something I noticed when I posted my question previously)
I took you suggestion and re-imported the sRGB exported JPEG and it looks like how it is supposed to be with the correct saturation. Here's a screenshot of the jpeg reimported.
Here is a screenshot comparing the LR5 preview to the Photos preview on Windows 8. The LR5 (left) is more saturated, the correct way I want it:
I cannot use Windows Photo Viewer because this is how my photos look like in it:
Hope this all makes sense! Thank you so much in advance!

Why are EPS files preferred when dropping a logo into a publication?

I need to send a logo to several printers who will be dropping it into publications that they produce for my client. Most of the printers have requested EPS files. Can someone explain why EPS seems to be the preferred file format in this situation? What is the advantage over PDF? Thanks.

I agree with Mylenium. I was just about to post the fact that there are many types of PDF readers and authoring/editing packages out there, much more than for EPS. You won't find an EPS viewer on an Android phone as quickly as you would find the PDF viewer that comes preinstalled on many of them with Quick Office or DataViz's Office package. So the benefit is that people who are on the go could pre-approve your logo and pass it on to whomever is doing the final graphics, if the workflow requires a middle-man. I am not a professional but have noticed the improvements to certain technologies when it comes to PDF. I worked in a copy & print service and we always requested PDF's to work with or to copy from, not EPS. If it had to be raster then we required 300dpi JPG's or TIF's. It wasn't a premier service but it was good enough to get lots of work done and we never worked with EPS.
One thing I will say for people working in 3D, many packages now accept AI files (as opposed to other vector formats such as Illustrator PDF, CDR, Corel PDF or whatever else) but it wasn't until recently that one of the major special effects packages accepted AI format--it was EPS or DXF (coming out of AutoCad) if you wanted 2D vector data into your 3D environment to do further modeling with.

Why are my files compressed when saving?

Could anyone help me, as
I am editing my large files and saving to a folder in order to upload to a photobook. When I look at the size of the file (
before uploading!) they are very small. Any suggestions?? Thanks so much. Robin

Perhaps you could provide details, like how big the file was before, what type of file it is before, how big the file is after save, and if you are saving as JPG (or something else)?
If you are saving as JPG, this is probably a normal situation, as JPG is a compression technology.

NEF thumbnails will not appear in CS3 Bridge

My XP machine crashed and I was forced to get a Vista machine. Vista 64 bit 7gb RAM and 640GB HD.
I downloaded the latest ACR 4.6 and that allowed me to see and edit NEF files in PS but in CS3 Bridge I cannot see the thumbnails only the NEF icon. I can double click and the NEF file will open in PS and I can edit as usual. I have tried clearing the cache' in the "tools" and it will give me a flash of some of the NEF thumbnails but that is all just a split second flash. I can see the metadata information just no thumbnail preview. JPEG's are fine.
HELP!!!

Hi:
I was having the same problem with vista 64 bit, PS CS3, bridge v. 4.6, creating thumbnails for Canon 50D. Your suggestions above to purge not only the camera raw preferences cache but also the regular preferences cache did the trick! Even though I have 3GB set for cache, it must have filled up. The thumbnails created instantly.
I had already checked for multiples of the plug-in but that wasn't it. ONly after I purged the general program cache did the thumbnails appear.
I knew it had to be something arcane like that as I also have CS3 installed in Win XP 32 bit, with the 4.6 ACR, and it creates thumbnails without any problem!
So thanks very much, you solved my problem, and I'd tried a lot of different suggestions.
It is counterintuitive I think that the program gives you three different places, tools, ACR and Bridge preferences. No wonder people have problems sorting simple problems like this out

Why are my files no longer downloading?

After converting a PDF into a word document; when I try to download the file nothing happens. So I click on the files tab and select the document I want to download and I get a messsage saying files not found. Why are my files no longer downloading?

What do you have your options set as in a Finder window?
Mine are set as "none" and show up alphabetically.
P.S. That is assuming you are referring to a Finder window? If not, please be a bit more specific.

Disc Burner. Why are some files not readable or writeable?

Hello,
I am trying to backup my friends computer files on a beige G3 (233 MHz). I am burning about 6 DVDs of AIF music files. Most of the files are about 30 - 40 Megs in size. Often I receive error messages on particular files that read:
"The operation cannot be completed because some data cannot be read or written.
(Error code - 36)"
Followed by the choices: "Stop" or "Continue".
I have a bad feeling that my startup disk is too small but I am not sure.
Most of the files work fine. However some of the files cause disc burner to not be able to use them in the disc image before I burn. Why would this be?
Here are the specifications:
Computer: beige G3 with two hard drives (one SCSI and one ATA hard drive) and a Pioneer DVR-110D DVD writer which is Apple supported (Apple system profiler indicates Apple supported on this DVD writer). My blank DVD disks are Sony Vermatim DVD-R (1 - 16x speed support). Although I think my beige G3 only writes them at about 2 or 4x.
I am using OS 10.1.5. My startup disk which has OS 10.1.5 in it is a 4 GIG SCSI disk. Is this big enough for a startup disk (for creating 4.5 GIG DVDs)? My files are on the second hard drive which is a 40 GIG ATA disk.
I have a bad feeling that my OSX startup drive is too small for disk burning - it is only 4 GIGs in total and OSX Disc burner (Disc copy) is first making a disk image on my startup volume before it burns it. Perhaps that disk image is too large for the startup volume. Is there any way I could ask OSX to put this disk image on the second larger hard drive instead (not the startup drive?).
Here is my process (I hope I am doing this right - I am new at this):
1. I first insert a blank DVD-R
2. A message pops up asking my if I would like to create a blank disc image for this disk (I think this is the typical Disk Copy utility window. I say "yes" and give it a name and choose the "DVD-R or DVD-RAM" option. (I am not sure if there are other important settings to choose here or better settings to use but I guessed the other options that seemed obvious. A blank disk image is created with an icon that looks like a DVD disk.
3. Then I drag my chosen files to this blank disc image. It takes about 30 minutes to copy over. Thats when I receive the error message that some files couldn't be "read or written". The other files work fine but it would be nice if they all worked.
Why would some files not be readable or writeable?
4. Then I choose file/burn in the top menu and the DVD is created. This takes another 20 - 30 minutes. At the very end of the process another message pops up saying:
"Sorry the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occured (error code -28)" Followed by an "OK" button.
However all the files that made it onto the final DVD are fine - its just that its not all of the ones I originally chose in the first step when dragging to create the disk image.
Am I doing this the right way?
Why are some files not "readable or writeable" as it indicates in the error message?
Is my 4 GIG startup disk too small for this? or are the music files possibly corrupt? or could there be some other possible problem?
Thanks

To follow up, I have some good news. After following your advice Kappy, it now works very well Thanks! Instead of using the 4 GIG volume for the OS, I am now using an 8 GIG partition on an 80 GIG drive. So now the OS has some room to operate. No disk errors occured on my first DVD
Now there was one problem. The second DVD burned gave me an error. I am not sure why but I am going to guess that because I had to installed the OS onto an 8 GIG partition maybe the OS needs to be rebooted in between disk burns because although 8 GIGs is certainly greater than the 4 GIGs I gave it last time, it still isn't a lot of space - maybe just enough to do one DVD at a time. Thats only a guess. So I rebooted to see if that clears the system out ready for the next DVD and I am trying to burn the second DVD again. If I remember I will report back. In any case, yes, this seems to be working. I hope this second DVD burns well too.
Thanks Kappy

Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5? I want to choose "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net" but Firefox won't let me.

In the previous version of Firefox one could choose to save tabs so that when Firefox opened, all the tabs from the previous sessions appeared. This was done in Settings > Options > General > Startup. In the menu for the "When Firefox Starts" one had the option for "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net." in Firefox 5.0, this menu is gray and not clickable. Help, please?

''Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5?"
Possibly you are not saving your "browsing history" which is what the session history is tied into.
'''Not saving History''' -- check your settings for '''Tools > options > Privacy'''', make sure you are not clearing more than just cache in "Settings for Clearing History"
* http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png
* clearing your history at end of session, cache is the only one you would want to clear at end of session, if you don't want to lose things
There are several things that are related to private browsing and not saving History
* Private Browsing Ctrl+Shift+P
* You selected "Never remember history" in first drop-down of Tools > Options Privacy and all of the check marks disappear (See picture above)
* "Permanent private browsing mode" was check-marked under "Use custom settings for history" in the first drop-down of Tools > options > Privacy (see picture above)

Where are music files stored when playing a song stored in iTunes Match?

Where are music files stored when playing a song stored in iTunes Match? Instead of clicking the cloud icon and downloading the song, I simply double click the song and it starts playing. Later, I can quite iTunes, come back and not have to wait for the song to buffer. When I go to about on my computer I am told there is 11 gigabytes of music on my computer. Where are those files stored, do they clear themeselves over time, etc...

but then why does the FAQ state this:
Does iTunes Match stream or download songs?
On a computer, any songs stored in iCloud will stream over the air when played, though you can download them at any time by clicking the iCloud download button.
Do they mean a different computer than the one with the stored music files? Would be nice if they specified what they mean

Why are my tags deleted when I replace pages?

Why are my tags deleted when I replace pages?

Hi Stephanie,
My suggested workaround: In Acrobat Pro, in the Page Thumbnails pane, select the pages that you want to replace then right click and select "Delete pages". Then, right-click the page just ahead of where the replacement pages will go, select "Insert pages", and follow the prompts. This is just the way I do it, not the only way.
Tiger26 is making the excellent suggestion that, prior to inserting pages, encapsulate the tags for the pages to be inserted using a Section tag. This makes the post-insertion chore of dragging the tags to their proper place in the tag structure easier.

Any document left open when you Quit the application reopens when you restart the application. Rather like the jacket that I neglected to hang up when I came home last night. It's still lying on the chair by the door.

X423424X's question is pertinent too: you usually need to repair permissions after some major upgrade or update, not on a regular basis. Is there a particular reason why you'd often try to repair permissions? Here's more on the subject.
Repairing permissions after an update or upgrade is harmless, but I would question the need to do it even there. The Apple update itself should set the correct Permissions. I still do this, really as a hangover from Tiger days -- not certain it was really ever needed there either -- and because it's a habit that's hard to kick, but it's never found anything to repair...but for one buggy exception, which was the 10.5.8 Combo update. Running it once and then repairing Permissions created a real error. It was discovered the Combo needed to be run twice back to back and then Permissions repair. In fact, one would have been better off not running Permissions for that update to begin with. There it wasn't harnless.

BTW, even Flash updates, which always used to set incorrect Permissions, are coming in clean these days.

Hi,
The 'features' you refer to are not anything that a customer should really care about, so why don't you just turn them off.
Do you really care about "Location-based iAds" - I've hardly ever even seen iAds!
Do you really care about the time-zone updating based upon your international location - unless you are a very frequent traveller, this 'feature' is pretty useless and can be turned off without losing functionality that matters.
The specific features to turn off are indicated in my post above - they are all in one place, they can all be turned off in about 20 seconds, and your problem will go away, and you will not lose any important functionality.
Obviously I would agree with your point if you had to refrain from using the phone or making text messages, or playing games, or taking photos... all of which are genuinely useful features of a phone.
But I disagree with you that you should deny yourself reasonable battery life on the basis that you need the specific features that made you buy this "Apple product and not an Android one" when these features are in fact not first-line, or even-second line features... they are just 'things' that make very little difference to how a person would use their iPhone at all.
Anyway, that's my thoughts on it. Yes of course it would be great if Apple could fix the bug but as it isn't showstopping, I find it hard to get worked up about it
