Aperture adding a blue tint to some photos

Aperture is turning a few of my photos blue.
I am shooting with a Sony A700 in cRAW. Several of the images downloaded last night have gotten a blue tint without me applying any adjustment. Anyone else with this issue?
Please help. thanks.

I have encountered the same very problem. It is not related to RAW format. I have traced it back to upgrading from Aperture 1 to 2. I thought I was alone in this issue, but found the problem discussed in "Snow Leopard + Aperture 2.1.4 Problems Pages". The discussion starts off describing a different problem, but soon it changes to the existence of a blue shift in the printed image. I am now convinced that my problem is related to the upgrade, since I am unable to print older versions that printed perfectly using Aperture 1.
my printer is an Epson stylus photo r800

Aperture software help, i cannot retouch some photos

For the first time this week a have a problem with retouch in Aperture. I do'nt see any result at the moment when I use the retouch and it makes no difference if I use Retouch or Clone. The counter on the left side sais that there are multiple retouches, bus nothin changes on my screen. So I made an axport of a picture to see if that made any difference, but no the retouces are not on the exported photo. If I use Blur or another brush it works as always.
Has someone a solution? I also tryed the reproces original and retouch afterwards, no result.

Aperture on Intel iMac running 10.7.5 has blue streaks on color photos and on Aperture menu bar

Everytime I open latest version of Aperture, I get blue streaks across the photos and on the menu bar for the App. Photos that are opened and or exported in Aperture are corrupted with blue streaks. This problem makes the App completly useless.

They are nothing like I expected to see. When viewing at 1000% (in Graphic Converter), they appear to be different shading on individual pixels although it can easily be missed, even on my Retina display on my MBP? They definitely do no appear as lines or streaks.
In the EXIF info, I see that the exposure is described as the Creative Exposure Program. What does your camera manual say about that? Any googling I do seems to refer to some sort of Art Filter? Whatever it means, it also seems that the photo had to be rotated.

Blue tint added from PS CS3 to Acrobat 8 Pro

Since I've upgraded to CS3, I've had this problem. Every document I design in Photoshop will look perfect but will add a blue tint to the canvas when converted into a PDF. It will do this whether the file is a PSD or JPG. It doesn't matter if it's text only or text and a photo. It only puts the blue tint on the actual PS canvas area, so if the canvas size is 5x7 and the document size I choose for the PDF is 8.5x11 then the blue tint is only on the 5x7, not the outer edges of the PDF - it is white.
I made a PDF in Microsoft Word, and it is perfect. I also created a doc in InDesign with text and image with no blue tint. I seem to think it's some new setting in PS that I'm not aware of. The working space is Adobe RGB 1998 (I also tried other settings including sRGB with no success) and the document profile matches as RGB 1998, so there are no conflicts.
Any ideas how to get rid of the blue tint?
Thanks for the help.

1 - make sure Acrobat is fully updated
Acrobat Updates Here - Updates are NOT cumulative, so install in number order
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
2 - try opening Acrobat and converting from there, not from Photoshop "linking to" Acrobat
3 - ask Acrobat questions in that forum http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.ee6b2f2/

In the last 36 hours my photos have jumbled within various albums. Random photos have attached at the end of an unrelated album, old photos have appeared again on Recently Added, some photos are missing but still on "collections". No date order

Within the last 36 hours my photo albums have turned into a real jumbled mess. Random photos have appeared at the bottom of my Recently Added album. In most cases it's a copy of a photo that was taken months or years ago so now it appears twice.. 200 random photos have appeared in an unrelated album. Some photos are missing completely. The date order is correct in some places and then it goes back and forth over the months and years. The "collections" appears to be okay. This morning when I went into the photo app About 50 photos that were permanently deleted 3 months ago reappeared on the Recently Added Album which I deleted again. if I delete these irreplaceable photos from the unwanted album it will delete the photo completely. Help please - this is so annoying and frustrating. I hate to think when I turn the iPad on tmoor row what else will have changed .

Quick Update:
I usually have my Mac laptop up with Messages running on it. As you know, it will receive the same messages you send/receive on your iPhone. I thought all my old photos would be there too, but they have all disappeared as well except for the last few.
Messages is supposed to archive all old photos to a directory called ~/Library/Messages/Attachments. On my mac, this was a 0 byte file that was created back in Jan 2014. As a result, none of the old photos got saved on my Messages app either. I looked at a Time Machine Backup and it has been the case since September (no earlier backups available). So, it's unclear how long this issue has been going on for my Messages app and how related it is to my iPhone problem.
In any case, if any of you use Messages, you may be able to recover your photos in that directory provided it didn't get trashed like mine did. I moved the file and created a new Attachments directory. Upon relaunch, Messages started properly storing new photos in there again.
Either there was a really terrible bug in the Apple software or something malicious has happened.
P.S. I'm running OS 10.9.5 Mavericks. There is a thread of people with this problem on Yosemite here:
No pictures are shown in Message om Mac
This seems like a pretty seriously terrible bug. I will be talking again to AppleCare on Wednesday and I hope they can escalate this.

Aperture 3.4.5 displays only a portion of some photos

Since I updated to Aperture 3.4.5, I see only a portion of some photos after I double click them in the library in Aperture. The same partial view now shows up in iPhoto as well. For a nanosecond, I see the full image as it is enlarging, but when it opens the image fully, it shows only a corner. It is possible that these are only photos that I edited in a previous version of iPhoto, before I was using Aperture.
Anyone else seen this? Any solutions? Thanks!

Thanks Kirby for the suggestions. I deleted preferences, and that did not change this behavior. In Aperture, I repaired the library, and that did not help either. In Aperture, I also repaired permissions, and that also did not help.
I tried to determine what might distinguish the photos where this was happening, but haven't found the key yet. They seem to be all photos that are labeled in Aperture as "iPhoto externally edited image," but not all the photos marked that way have this problem. It is possible that the problem is confined to images from my old Canon 20D, that show up in Aperture labeled as "iPhoto externally edited image."
I have confirmed that the entire image is there in each case. If I open the library in iPhoto, I see the partial images, but then if I move through the affected photos with the arrow keys, I will see the entire image. Otherwise, I always only see a small corner of the image at full size, in both iPhoto and Aperture. It appears to be a thumbnail issue in Aperture. May related to using my iPhoto library as my Aperture library?
I'm stumped.

I'm trying to make a slideshow in iMovie, but when I upload photos from my Aperture Library into the iMovie Photo Browser some photos (305 out of 427) are missing. How do I get iMovie to upload all of them?

I'm trying to make a slideshow in iMovie, but when I upload photos from my Aperture Library into the iMovie Photo Browser, some photos (305 out of 427) are missing. How do I get iMovie to upload all of them?

I have same problem. I could only see a fraction of my project photos if I browse the Aperture lbrary. It is the same problem when I sync the aperture photos to my iPhone or iPad. I still cannot solve it but I know a way to go around it for your iMovie to see the pictures so that you can work on your iMovie.
Here is the work around:
Export the photos from your album to your hard disk and re-import into your iPhoto. Now you should be able to see those photos that you want to work on in iMovie when you browse your iPhot library.

Aperture stretches or distorts some photos?

Hi guys!
New to the forums, new to Aperture! Had a quick search and found a kind of answer, but am hoping for something better!
Have recently made the transition from iPhoto to Aperture and am enjoying it very much. However am experiencing what seems to be a bug or glitch that I'm hoping there is a fix or work around that helps my workflow.
Some of the photos imported from my iPhoto seems to display incorrectly in Aperture. Typically they appear ok in the thumb, until I click them and then they often crop right into one corner of the photo, or stretch or squash to on one edge of the frame or just generally bug out. I can find no way of reverting this except (as suggested by one forum discussion) go back to iPhoto and reset the thumb. This works (phew!) so the photos are not lost, but it's a real pain and defeats the point in using Aperture to some extent as I have to keep reverting back to iPhoto. Seems mad that iPhoto handles the photos better than Aperture, no?
So does anyone know what causes this, is there a clean way to fix this or is there a swift work around that doesn't involve dipping in and out of programs? I have literally tens of thousands of photos so if there is a way to blanket fix the whole lot rather than manually fix each problem photo, that would be even better!!
Thanks in advance guys!
Chris

Yeah, I wondered if that would help, but all I get is the message "None of the selected images needed reprocessing" and it makes no difference to the photo/thumb
I also tried 'Update Preview' and got the message "The selected item was externally edited in iPhoto and cannot be updated" - For some photos I assumed it was because I had made adjustments to the photo within iPhoto but I just did a test on one photo and aside from adjusting the orientation, it doesn't appear that I've done anything to the photo in iPhoto.
That's pretty crazy if it's all the photos that have been manipulated in iPhoto, I thought these things were supposed to play well together? That's why I bought Aperture!

IPhone photos have blue tint

I haven't used the camera much but recently took some photos of flowers in my backyard and discovered most are tinted bluish. I had read in other forums and seen examples of this problem that others were having so decided to check mine out.
Should I return my phone to the Apple store, even though I am past the 14 day exchange date? What will they do? This is the only problem I have had with the phone and I don't want to get one that is worse.

Hi Bluesygirl,
This is most likely an auto white balance problem. Your hunch about experimenting in different lighting conditions is a good one. All digital cameras have problems adjusting their auto white balance, or color temperature. Some do better than others. The $5000 Leica M8 has lousy auto white balance according to many owners. But it has presets for different lighting conditions, such as daylight, cloudy, tungsten, flourescent, etc. It also has the ability to shoot in Raw, where you CAN alter the white balance after the fact without a problem. But this involves more time at the computer.
The iPhone camera does not have presets for white balance. So your only option is to attempt to post process the image in iPhoto or another imaging editing software. The temperature slider in iPhoto is the white balance adjustment. You can also play with levels and tint. The problem here is that a jpeg image has already thrown out a lot of the color data with compression, and adjustments after the fact are hit and miss.
It could be a software problem that will be improved upon, or even a hardware problem that iPhoneatlas speculates on without providing any evidence, but as an amateur photographer I can tell you this is very common among all digital cameras that don't have the option to preset the color temperature.
If you want to get into photography with a little point and shoot I would recommend a Fuji f30 ($300) or f20 (going for about $150 now) for super pics under varied lighting conditions, including the amazing ability to take them in extreme low light without a flash. You will be impressed.
But as far as the iPhone camera is concerned, it is what it is, a 2mp (I paid $500 7 years ago for my first digital, a 2mp model) fixed focus camera that only has auto white balance, a far from perfect solution to shooting in varied lighting conditions.

Blue tint

hi there i have a dv7-7332ea and i noticed after comparing images with my partners hp desktop that the screen has a blue tint just slight but when trying to edit photos it makes a huge difference , i looked at the monitor settings in control pannel and it says that it is a generic pnp monitor and not its make etc i have tried reinstalling the graphics drivers and it still shows this, has anyone created a profile to correct this issue or has a way of solving it, as im stumpped , i have tried colour correction through the intel control pannel but its just not getting the correct result
confussed.com
any help would be greatly appreciated

Good Morning @ddave_1985 ,
Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help.
I see that your display is exhibiting a blue tint when compared to your friends desktop monitor. You tried adjusting the color through the Intel Control panel but it remained unchanged. You tried reinstalling the graphic drivers but it did not help.
Have you done all your Windows updates?
Has it always had the blue tint or is it a recent change?
Have you made any recent changes to your notebook?
Have you ran the HP Support Assistant to aid with HP updates ?
Have you tried using the Windows troubleshooter ?
Here is a link to the HP ENVY dv7-7332ea Notebook PC Drivers. You will need to select your Operating System and click next to display the recommended drivers and updates for your notebook. Please ensure they have all been updated.
Here is a link to Display Quality Issues that will guide you through some adjustments to help overcome this difficulty.

Good Luck!

Mac AME creating blue tinted video

When exporting some tutorial files from " An Editors Guide to Adobe Premiere Pro" through AME I experienced video files with intermittent blue tinted frames.
Heres some others experienceing the same thing...

Sorry for the double post. I realized I was in the wrong forum and created one here, only to realize it had been moved for me.
No, this is happening on my one and only system...with Kona and Nvidia up to date codecs installed. I just did some testing that may point to a possible cause.
Richard Harringtons wonderful book has tutorial projects for PrP5 and PrP 5.5. The problem seemed to manifest with those 5.5 projects using Cineform source clips. Exported or Queued they would have this intermittent bluish tint as noted.
I took one of the clips and created a New Sequence using the drag and drop on the button approach. Then I added the same clips that exhibited the problem in that sequence. I then rendered it out and it was fine.
I suspect there is something within Harringtons sequences that was eliciting the problem. Which is good to know since there doesn't seem to be an issue if I don't render them, which is not necessary for 95% of the tutorials. Very strange but seemingly identified.

I transferred some photos to my iphone via email and they come up in camera roll as low resolution. How do I fix this?

I transferred some photos to my iphone via email and they have very low resolution. First I sent them from iPhoto with highest resolution, then I transferred them to my desktop in highest resolution and added them to an email, opened the email and saved to my Camera roll. They all look like low resolution photos.This is the exact method I have used to transfer photos in the past with my 4S and never had a problem. What am I doing wrong? Is this a bad camera? HELP please! Thank you!

My husband has the same phone, we purchased them at the same time. I sent him the same photos in the same email that I downloaded them from and on his phone they show up with the normal higher resolution. Is it possible that there is something wrong with my iPhone or is there a setting that can be changed? I'm still learning to use it. All my other photos are of normal resolution. Does this make any sense to anyone?
Please help!

How do I delete photos from iPod Touch? Some photos do not have the trash basket option!

How do I delete photos from iPod Touch? Some photos do not have the trash basket option!
When I first synced my iPod Touch with my laptop, it uploaded a lot of photos onto the iPod. I now wish to delete those but it does not seem as a straight forward option!

For photos synced to the iPod you have to unsync them:
To delete photos from your device
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Click Apply.

I can't see some photos

I saved to my HD many pages from the Web containing photos and now that I look back at it, after weeks or months (and I think in some cases, just the same day) I realize that many do not have the photos. It has everything else; text, links, etc but not the photos. Instead it has a tiny blue square with a question mark in the middle (and no, I can't click on it).
I'm a photographer. I visit a site called modelmayhem (www.modelmayhem.com).
I don't know if I have this also on other sites. I don't think so.
I use Safari but I had this also in the past when I was using Internet Explorer.
I do File-->save as-->web archive
(I have only 2 choices anyway with OS X this or save as page source)
Also, on some pages there that contains 20 photos, I would see a few (maybe 5-6 or maybe 12 or so) but not the rest.
So some photos I can see and some not, although they are on the same page, downloaded the same day, that's not logical.
Why can't I see something I downloaded ?
PS: I have other pages, from other sites that I downloaded, and while the sites don't exist anymore, I can still SEE the pages I saved. (of course if I click on anything, a link for example, I will get some error message) but I can see the photos and text that was on that page.)

once I save/copy the picture on a disc is it permanent ? will I be able to see it even if they remove the photo from the Web ?
I understand that when I save a photo or page on my HD I only copy the link and when the photo or page is removed I won't be able to see it.
Also when I click on a page with a photo that was on my HD, it will show no image just text, if I'm not connected to the internet. But once I'm connected it will show it.
So saving a page with photos on your HD actually doesn't mean a thing; your page is not saved ! meaning you can't see it whenever you want, even years from now. If they remove the page, you won't see anything (just text and sometimes not even that).
So again, once I save/copy the picture on a disc is it permanent ? will I be able to see it even if they remove the photo from the Web ?
Maybe I'm naive but once it is on a disc I should see what is on the disc, just like I watch today a VHS tape with "The Odd Couple" or "Taxi" although these shows are not on the air, the stations doesn't even exist anymore but it's all irrelevant because I COPYED the show, it is physically on my tape and therefore I can see it anytime I want. Isn't it the same with a disc ?
In other words is there a difference between saving something on your HD and saving it on a disc ?

MacBook Pro 15 inch 2011- Blue tint in Windows 7 using Bootcamp 4.0

I have recently installed Windows 7 using Bootcamp on my Macbook pro 15 inch 2011. The display under Mac OSX is accurate with vibrant colors using the default Color LCD profile. In WIndows 7, everything is tinted blue and all colors are dimished because of this. I have tried importing my Color LCD icc profile from Mac OSX Lion and this has helped to some degree. This alleviates the blue tint but gives Windows a warmer, browner tint. Unfortunately this makes the display too dim and crushes the blacks. Additionally, some games revert to the default windows calibration with the blue tint. Games look bad either way as the Color LCD profile in Windows makes the game too dark and the default calibration makes everything blue. Has anyone been able to correct this in Bootcamp?Thanks

msconfig / chkdsk / Windows 7 DVD system repair or rollback restore point
Ccleaner 3.09 - remove temp files and caches / also run Registry section
Start: Run %TEMP% (select all) and remove all the contents in there
Heat, fans, poor Apple drivers, I would not blame ATI but I would upgrade/install those.
And yes BC 4.0 probably was not tested fully.
