Appearance of images changes when moving from ACR to PSE11 Editor .. why?

I run Windows 8.1 x64 bit on my new PC and use PSE11 which opens raw files automatically into ACR.  Once I've finished editing an image in ACR I then click on 'Open Image' which transfers the part edited file to the PSE11 Editor.  Once there I perform a few additional tweaks before cropping, sharpening and saving as a jpeg.
At about the same time as I installed PSE11 onto my new PC I became acutely aware of a change in the appearance of my images as they transferred from ACR to PSE11 Editor.  Having performed the basic adjustments in ACR and things are to my liking, the image now opens in PSE11 Editor looking rather washed out by comparison .. less contrast, maybe a little more brightness and a certain degree of reduced colour saturation.
Obviously all images are seen on the same monitor, so any fingers pointing at calibration issues don't count in this instance!  I just need to know if there is a fix that will return me to the situation I've always had before, where the part edited ACR image looks the same when it opens in the PSE11 Editor.  I have been using PSE in various versions for a number of years and this is the first time that I've experienced this irritating problem.
Help, please!

Thanks for your reply Michel ...
The colour setting in both Editor and Organiser is: 'Always Optimise Colours for Computer Screens'
I believe this option will select the sRGB colour space by default and that the option 'Always Optimise for Printing' will default the colour space setting to Adobe RGB.  Is this so?  I only print occasionally (most of my viewing is on the monitor or the TV) but it would be nice to know if the chosen colour space chosen produce this odd effect I'm experiencing (although I sincerely doubt that it's got anything to do with it).
This option will be used by the ACR conversion module to set the colour space of the file imported in the editor. So, you are right, the sRGB colour space is a good choice for you. What's good is that the raw file itself has NO colour space. If you have edited a raw file for sRGB, good. But you can set your editor to 'optimize for print', and you'll get an aRGB version for printing. Worth a try if you have a good printer (mine is an all-in-one with 6 inks and I can see the difference for some subjects).
My camera (EOS 5D MkIII) is always set to sRGB.  Is this significant?
No for raw files. That's used only for the in-camera conversion to jpeg. It's a simple tag which is ignored in the ACR conversion process (see above).
The main issue though remains, namely the fact that part edited images look washed out in PSE Editor in spite of looking just fine in ACR a split second earlier, so I'm still looking for a remedy.
Such a difference is often noted when a file with aRGB colour space is seen in a software that believes it's sRGB. Nothing in your worklows seems to explain that.
Do you see a difference when you see the same edited picture in a non colour-managed software? I can't help you more for the moment.

  • Image loses contrast when transferring from ACR to PSE11

    I have a new PC running Windows 8.1 x64 bit and have reinstalled PSE11 from the CD (previously it was installed on a PC running Vista x32 bit).
    Apart from having to go into all my most frequently used sections to re-set the parameters to how I had them before, all seems to be well with one rather irritating exception ...
    I get the image looking just about right in ACR, but when I click Open Image to apply a few final tweaks in the PSE11 Editor, the picture seems to lose contrast in the move.  With my previous setup, once I was satisfied with the general look of the part-edited image in ACR, it appeared pretty much the same when opened in PSE.
    This will have nothing to do with monitor calibration, since the common factor here is the monitor screen.  The issue is to do with the general appearance of the image when viewed in ACR as compared with how it then appears in PSE.  I have the colour space set as sRGB and the PSE viewing parameters as 'optimised for viewing on computer screens' (I don't do that much printing).
    Anyone else experienced this problem?  What have I missed or what can I do to rectify things, please?

    OSX outputs pdfs at 72dpi if there is any transparency such as shadows, reflections, charts and of course directly specified transparency.
    The jpeg is generated from a pdf and is the wrong method of producing an ad, which should remain text/vector to stay sharp, with photographic style images at 300dpi.
    jpegs should only be used for purely photographic material because it makes everything else fuzzy.
    Your ad should be supplied as a vector pdf. If it has photographic material do not use transparency effects and make sure the images are at least 300dpi at final size.

  • When moving from LR4 to PSE9 editor my photos look very different

    I've recently bought lightroom 4 which I'm using with elements 9 and I know that lightroom 4 will slightly alter the look of photos previously edited in elements which hasn't been a problem so far.  My problem is that photos edited in lightroom/develop look completely different - unusably diiferent in fact - when I move them to elements/editor from lightroom.  What am I doing wrong?  The photos were moved using 'Ctrl +E' or 'Photo/Edit In/Edit in Adobe Photoshop Elements'.
    I decided to check the photos that had been edited in lightroom by going into elements/editor via via elements/organiser and they were fine - only slightly different - but then when I opened the lightroom/library again I got a warning exclamation mark 'Error writing metadata' (not the warning exclamation mark 'Update to current Process (2012)' that you get in lightroom develop).
    Am I missing something in the 'Edit Photo With Adobe Photoshop Elements' dialog box?
    man thanks in advance for any help.

    Thanks for the replies - I think I've got it working now
    My photos are all RAW but the problem also occurred with jpg and psd files
    I've worked my way through all the options in the 'edit in adobe photoshop elements' dialog box and this is what happens when the photos are sent from lightroom to elements:
    file format:
    I'm using psd - but the same problem occurred with tiffs and jpgs
    colour space:
    ProPhoto RGB - the colour changes significantly when the photo opens in elements
    Adobe RGB (1998) - the colour changes slightly when opened in elements
    sRGB - the colour stays virtually the same
    bit depth:
    16 bit - I can't add layers to the file that opens in elements
    8 bit - seems to work fine in elements
    I am therefore sending photos to elements as sRGB 8 bit which seems to be working fine - hopefully there's no reason why I shouldn't be using these settings!

  • Image Placement when moving from all images to Quick collection

    It would be nice if your position in the main catalog would remain intact when you move from the main group of imgages to the Quick Collection. Presently, you scroll down through thousands of images in the main collection and find an image that you feel might be similar to one you've already added. You go to check the Quick Collection to review your selection and when you go back to continue searching the main collection, the cursor takes you back to the very top of the page of the main collection. You then have to scroll through thousands of images you've already looked at. Is there currently a way around this anyone?
    An even better option would be the ability to open the Quick collection or any other Collection and view the images in side by side windows with the main collection. Aperture allows viewing in this manner. this would be a nice addition to Lightroom.

    Absolutely agree. My request is here:

  • Audio clips change when moved from sequence to sequence in FCP7

    Working on a documentary piece within FCP7 and am having problems with moving audio from one sequence to another. Both sequences have the same settings, but when I copy the audio clip and paste it into the new sequence, the audio that pastes is from the same clip but is not what I copied. Does anyone know why this is happening and/or how to fix this?

  • Image Change When Transferred from Lightroom to PS (?Camera Profile)

    I am having difficulty that I think is related to Camera RAW that I hope I can get some help with. 
    I updated to v7.2 today, but I think the problem started today before the update.  I get the image looking great in Lightroom and then either send to Edit in PS or to Open as Smart Object in PS (it doesn't matter, same results) and the image looks awful.  If I open the smart object in PS it opens in Camera RAW and when I look at all the Camera RAW settings they are all exactly the same as the Lightroom 4.2 settings until I get down to the camera calibration settings.  In Lightroom it is set to Process 2012 with Adobe Standard as the profile.  In Camera RAW it is Process 2012 but the profile is simply listed as 'Matrix' with no other choices available in the drop down.  In Lightroom, Adobe Standard and all the camera profiles are available for what I am shooting with, a Canon 5D MKII which I have used for years.  As recently as a day or two ago I did not have this problem (though I never looked to see what the Camera Raw profile was when it was coming over to PS correctly), though I suspect it may be the source of the problem since all the other settings are identical 
    Any help would be very appreciated as I can no longer work with images until this is corrected. 
    Thanks very much,
    Howard

    Perhaps this is a clue to the problem?  If I go to Program Data>Adobe>Camera RAW> Camera Profiles > there is a folder called Camera and another Adobe Standard.  Within the Adobe Standard Folder are Adobe Standard files for multiple cameras including the Canon 5D MKIII, but inexplicably there is not one for the MKII.  Likewise, the Camera folder contains folders labeled with different cameras.  There is a folder for the Canon 5D MKIII that contains the profiles (neutral, landscape etc) but there is NO folder for the 5d MKII.  What gives here?  Is this the problem?  If so how does one fix it?

  • I have an iPad 2 and receive e-mail through internet connection. When I delete e-mails, and clear my Trash folder, they re-appear. Setting are for remove from server when moved from Inbox. Any idea what I can do to actually delete them?

    I have an iPad 2 and receive e-mail through regular internet connection. Lately, when I delete e-mails, and clear my Trash folder, they re-appear, downloaded anew from the server and marked as unread. My e-mail Advanced Settings are selected for "Remove from server when moved from Inbox." Even when I access the e-mail accountfrom my desktop and delete the e-mails, the re-appear on my iPad. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this and what I can do to actually delete them?

    Sounds like you are looking in the wrong Administrative Group container which is why you are seeing your Exchange 2010 servers in there.
    When you install Exchange 2003 only you will see a container named by default as "CN=First Administrative Group" container. But this could be named anything if you changed the Organization Name on the installation when you installed the first
    Exchange 2003 server into the domain/forest. 
    You will notice that when you install Exchange 2010 part of the AD setup is to create a new configuration container and is named by default "CN=First Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)".
    So it sounds like you are not looking in the right location within ADSIEdit. 
    You may find the following article also helpful for this issue which is the same resolution:

    I recommend though that you ensure your Exchange 2003 servers are fully uninstalled or no longer present in your environment before you go deleting the Servers container though.. The following Microsoft article will help with this:

  • Image size changes when moving an image between Lightroom and CC.

    Image size changes when moving an image between Lightroom and CC.
    I opened a .dng image in LR and then opened it in the Develop module.  I clicked on Crop Overlay and then on the ‘As Shot’ drop down menu (the lock is closed) and cropped to 11 x 17 and clicked ‘Done’-.
    I click Cntl-E and the image opens in CC.  There I click on Image > Image Size and the Image Size  is 13.288 inches by 20.533 inches.
    Why does the image size change?
    I believe there is a menu to control the size of the image and I've looked everywhere I can think of in LR and CC, I googled various descriptions and I checked two of Scott Kelby's books, but I just can't figure out how to keep the image a consistent size when moving between LR and CC.
    Help!...Please?

    The penny will drop soon or maybe the cloud will lift.
    In Lightroom all editing is undoable/nondestructive.
    Hence a crop of 3x2 is not inches, centimetres, pixels or anything else. It is jst a ratio. When a file is exported, either to PS or disk, then the crop ratio has size determined in respect of pixels and inches or cms.
    So my 6000x5000 pixel image I will crop to 3x2 that leaves (before exporting) a 6000x4000 file.
    Now when exported it can be set to export at
    100pixels per inch and will end up at 60x40" when printed.
    200pixels per inch will end up at 30x20"
    300ppi will end at 20x13.3"
    You will notice in the Crop Tool there are no size denominations such as inches or centimetres as an image file only has pixels and the determination of size is done through exporting or printing.
    Hope that helps somewhat..

  • When moving from a list of threads view to a thread would be nice to jump to last thread read.

    When moving from a list of threads being viewed to a thread, it would be nice to jump to last thread read or first unread thread.
    Sometimes the threads get rather long.  Sometimes I haven't read a thread in awhile & I forget where I have left off reading a thread. It would be nice to have an icon to click on to move to your last read post or the first non-read post. 
    Seems this could be implemented in javascript without too much problem.  Might be a problem of when to get rid of the tracking data.
    Robert

    This would be a new capability.   I didn't know you could jump directly to the last post in a thread by clicking on the posters name in your discussions.  However, I am interested in jumping to the first post that I haven't read.
    Since writing my original post, I realize that software doesn't know what posts I have read. Lets say there are are 26 posts in a thread.  Lets assume these are divided into three pages with at most 10 items in a page:
    page 1 -- a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j
    page 2 -- k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t
    page 3 -- u, v, w, x, y, z
    The software know that I have viewed the first three pages.  It doesn't know what post on the pages I have read.  The software would need to assume I have read all the available posts on a page.
    Now lets assume that 12 more post were added.  This results in:
    page 1 -- a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j
    page 2 -- k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t
    page 3 -- u, v, w, x, y, z, aa,bb,cc,dd
    page 4 -- ee,ff,gg,hh,ii,jj,kk,ll
    It would be nice if I could go to aa. 
    Jumping to the last post in the thread doesn't hack it. You have to spend a lot of time finding where you left off your reading.
    Intesting, the list of your posts on your homepage usings the term Last Activity were as Your Discussions uses the term Last Post. The terminalogy should be the same & should act the same.  For the existing capability of going the the last post, I was thinking of Goto Last Post.

  • Performance issue when moving from 4.6c to 6.0

    Looks like we took a performance hit when moving from 4.6c to 6.0 on the same hardware. 
    For example, our PGI on outbound deliveries now takes several seconds longer in 6.0 then it did in 4.6c.  We've noticed other SAP area's are taking longer as well.  With an ST05 sql trace on the PGI in 6.0, we see more tables being accessed, same tables being access differently taking longer.  All leading to more time to do a PGI in 6.0.
    Has anyone else noticed this increase in Response time when upgrading to 6.0 ?   
    Thanks,
    David

    Hello.
    Yes, in our system we noticed the same thing at start. The general performance seemed to get worse after upgrading. In fact, database became bigger and more memory is consumed. However, it was tuned up by our system administrator and now seems ok.
    Run the optimizer statistics and see if it get's better.

  • Flex app doesn't work when moved from original location

    I'm trying to make an image gallery in flex. It works when I run it in Flex Builder perfectly fine. The html and swf files from the bin-debug folder work perfectly fine when opened in any browser also, but ONLY when those files and all related files are opened from the default location that the application was built in. When I export a build to a different folder, the swf loads but none of the information from the xml file displays. I tried setting all of the paths of the reference files (namely the xml) in the flex app to the exact absolute location on the server, and it still didn't work when I uploaded it to the server.
    I've tried several approaches starting from scratch and they have all come up with the same issue. I'm working with an educational license for Flex Builder, I'm not sure if they jip you on those and ruin the compiled swf.
    Please help! I'm losing my mind over this.I think it has to do with something else besides the code since it works fine when I hit "Run", but if anyone thinks it will help to post the code let me know.

    when you build an application using one of the wizards (like coldfusion flex application wizard) it hard codes
    paths to cold fusion CFC's, and sometimes gets it wrong.
    If your application references cfc's (or other remote objects) then it may be necessary to adjust the flex code
    when moving the code into a different base folder.
    For example in my own application, the url is http://localhost/crm_dev_flex and the built application gets put into
    c:\inetpub\wwwroot\crm_dev_flex\bin-debug
    References in the code to components found in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\crm_dev_flex\bin-debug\components\cfgenerated
    (in the flex code these looks like crm_dev_flex.bin-debug.components.cfgenerated.<mycomponent> )
    These need to change when you move the code to somewhere else.
    Also, if you are using wizard generated cfc's then these also contain similar references that need to be changed.
    IHTH.
    Cheers
