Apple TV color problem
Bought a new 3rd generation Apple TV. The menu screen, podcasts, etc., show up on TV with very poor color. The white is blown out like an overexposed photo. Can't read text in podcasts. Older ATV was much better. Much easier to watch on my MBP17" than on TV. Is there an obvious place to check (ATV, Panasonic TV) to fix this?
Don't know why, but the Panasonic remote has a Menu button that doesn't get me to any menu :-( Meanwhile, no arrows on the HDMI cable but I switched if anyway to see if it helped. It didn't. Meanwhile, should I leave the HDMI and TV resolution settings in the **ATV menu** on Auto? Might there be some combination that would work? - - tried a few, but there are a lot of combinations.

I just bought a Toshiba LED TV. My photos on my Apple TV all show up with a heavy magenta color, and the contrast looks like an Andy Warhol painting. I have switched HDMI cables but it remains the same. Help.
Really? Doesn't seem like an answer to me, looks more like a "We didn't make the Netflix app, go ask them instead" LOL

Hey Eve,
I was able to find an answer to your question by following the suggestion in this article:

It advises to go to www.netflix.com/support, and if you search there for "apple tv subtitles" you should find a few pertinent articles that can help you out.

A color problem in Apple's publishing App
I was wondering if you could help me with this problem，I really need some help，and here it is：
There is a Color problem in Mac publishing applications like Pages and Keynote，including iBooks Author，which really confuse me a lot。
When you use a certain color space（sRGB IEC61966-2.1 in this case）to create some colors with Apps like Illustrator CS6，Indesign CS6 & Photoshop CS6 etc. ，they look totally fine。BUT when you use iBooks Author （V2.0）to create the very same color with the very same color space，colors still look fine in the color panel，and here comes the problem：they look totally lousy in the actual document！！In fact，they look much lighter and faded。（See Image 1&2）
Above：Image 1
Above：Image 2
And this is also terrible with photos you import。（See Image 3）
Above：Image 3
Please tell me what I can do to solve this problem。I know maybe this is some sort of “basic” and “general” knowledge，but I really need your help。And I can't thank you enough if you can provide some effective solutions。As far as I can see, the colour pallet and how colours are seen in any app on YOUR machine will depend on the computers System Preferences>Displays>Colour - choose your preferred setting.
I suggest first that you ensure that your colour profile settings are the same ( as your computer) in whatever Adobe application or in fact any outside image processor you use.
Creating or using a colour profile in Adobe and having a different profile on your system - will tend to give different colour hues.
A point also to remember is whatever you set up and is transferred to your product... when seen on an iPad may well be totally different again due to peculiarities and contrast / brighness setting of the iPad user. -

Photoshop - Motion - DVDSP Color Problem
This message is crossposted in the Motion Forum because I'm not sure where the solution is to be found...
I'm putting together a dvd and I wanted to create transition animations to go between the menus. I've run into a bit of a color problem, however. To explain:
I created my main menu as a layered photoshop document (8-bit RGB, NTSC colorspace). I brought that menu into Motion, preserving all layers. I animated those layers in motion so that at the end of the animation they were another menu on the dvd, then I exported the last frame of the animation, brought it back into photoshop, and made everything line up so that it precisely matched the final frame of the animation, then saved that PSD as a new layered document. Finally, in DVD Studio Pro, I brought in the two Menu PSDs and the animated transition.
The problem I'm running into is that the color on the transition animation is washed out and somewhat desaturated compared to the menu PSDs. Rather than the seamless transition from layered menu PSD to animation and back to layered menu PSD, you can see this altered color "pop" on the animation.
Here's what I've checked and tried:
-I've exported the motion project as every codec that made any kind of sense (Animation NTSC, Apple Pro Video NTSC, etc).
-I've brought the Motion project directly into DVD Studio Pro, rather than exporting it.
-Using the color inspector in both Photoshop and Motion, I can see that all RGB values match exactly as they should.
-When I exported a frame of the animation and brought it back into Photoshop to create the second layered menu, the color matched exactly. In fact, I did the alignment using the "difference" layer mode, and there was no color shift at all.
So... any ideas?
Also: I'm going from these layered menus to a video track (first frame matches the layered menu) to another layered menu (matching the final frame of the video track)... that is the most sensible way to have animated transitions between menus, right?
Thanks in advance for any insights.
-WWell, I found a solution... DVDSP didn't like the image in NTSC, but it seems to work with Generic RGB, provided I redo all of the animation from scratch using the same Generic RGB PSDs. A bit of a pain, but I suppose that's why I did this test after completing only one of the many animations the project will demand.
Thanks everyone for the insights. -
Has Apple resolved the problems with the 23" display?
I want to buy a 23" cinema display but the color problem (pinkish hue) seems to still exist. Has Apple still not resolved this problem?
If this is the case, I'll buy the 20" display which I believe does not have any problems. Can someone confirm this?There has not been any indication from Apple that any chnages have been made in the displays other than price cuts. There were some minor spec changes (which were "un-announced") but nothing about the panels or the many issues that have been discussed here since the introduction of these units.

I udate my os to 10.6.7 and since then my Pages have color problems. The text is not visible (white on white background) it does'nt help to change the text color nor background color. I just download the recent trail version of Iworks and install it. The first document I opened it was ok. When I open the second one the problem appear again and stayed. Pls help
This behavior was described many times.
In every occurrence,the operating system was an uncompleted one resulting of the use of Software Update to update the operating system to 10.6.2, 10.6.3, 10.6.4, 10.6.5, 10.6.6, 10.6.7.
In such cases, the solace was to apply a combo updater.
As you are using 10.6.7, download and apply the combo 10.6.7 :

After that, run Software Update which will urge you to apply :

Color Problems with CS4 Upgrade
I recently upgraded to CS4 and have been experiencing the following problem. When I open an image from ACR to PS CS4 it looks absolutely nothing like it did in ACR. If I was to describe it, it would be that the image has an overall red tint when viewed in CS4. If I then save this image as a PSD file, and then open it in PS CS3 it matches the CS4 ACR image. So, what have I got set wrong in PS CS4 (which is still all of the default settings)?
I've used dual monitors for many years. I see absolutely no change when moving any image from one monitor to another in Photoshop 7.0.1 through 11 (CS4). Photoshop is smart enough to read the profile for each monitor on the fly.
HI> Although I'm new to the Mac platform, that has been my experience also.
Even when I place half of the image in one monitor and the other half in the other one, Photoshop uses the correct monitor for each respective half of the image.
HI> I agree, for CS3 and Lightroom that is how it works for me too.
My response to Ray's question ("Where does photoshop assign a primary monitor?") has absolutely nothing to do with monitor profiles, only with which monitor will be the primary monitor, i.e. the one that hosts the menu bar with the Apple menu.
That is what you can change in the Display Preferences > Arrangement (Mac System Preferences).
HI> Correct and I agree. But I believe Ray had that setup correctly to begin with, unless I did not understand him.
The one thing that did change in CS4 is that image files now will always open on the primary monitor. In previous versions of Photoshop, you could just move an image to the secondary monitor, close it, and it or the next image would open on your secondary monitor too. That is not possible in CS4, at least in the current version.
HI> My observation as well.
However, the monitor profile used on each monitor respectively remains the correct one as set in Display Preferences > Color.
Photoshop knows how to apply each monitor profile to each monitor, unless the user has messed that up in Display Preferences > Color.
HI> As stated, CS3 and Lightroom do apply colors correctly. CS4 does not.
In Edit > Color Settings, you should be set to the Adobe Color Engine (ACE), not to Color Sync.
HI> All my observations with CS4 have used ACE. I was getting frustrated and the ColorSync thing was an experiment to see if anything changed.
In my experience, the Apple CMM, Color Sync, has been unreliable for a long time. I just avoid it. (There are other legitimate uses for the ColorSync Utility, such as repairing profiles [Profile First Aid], visualizing and comparing their gamuts, etc.)
If both monitors are accurately calibrated and profiled, and if the appropriate monitor profiles are selected for each monitor separately in Display Preferences > Color, Photoshop will use them correctly on each monitor, in my experience.
HI> CS4 does not seem to work the same way. In fact, if you bring up the images in Bridge CS4 on my setup, the filmstrip version of the image will have the proper color profile (when I move it back and forth from one monitor to the other) and the selected preview image will not! I believe this is a bug in CS4! CS4 should apply the same color profile to each image in Bridge regardless of which monitor I move the window to.
Something is going wrong in Ray's setup, but there are not enough details to tell what. Screen shots of all the settings would be helpful.
HI> I'm not sure how your monitors are setup. Perhaps you have two monitors that are nearly the same and therefore your color profiles are close enough to not see the difference that Ray and I see. My monitors are setup correctly and I believe that Ray's are too.
Even the cheapest calibrator puck will produce a more accurate profile than can be achieved through Apple's built-in or any other eyeball calibrator like SuperCal.
HI> I use Graytag McBeth. However, even if I did not use any calibration, I should see the same results in the same window for Bridge CS4, regardless of how far the profiles were off! Comparing that with CS3 and Lightroom makes me believe that this is a software bug in CS4 not a setup issue. -
My G5 iMac has a screen color problem. The color is green with lines. What can I do to repar this? Sometimes the screen will freeze and I have to reboot the computer and the screen will be normal for up to 5-6 hours and then suddenly changes back to a greenish color.
Try running in Safe mode. This leaves out some video drivers. Which results in machine not using advanced video hardware.

Has Apple acknowledged the problem yet with itunes aborting preview of songs after about 10 seconds on windows 7 and if so is there an answer other than ipconfig? IPConfig /flushdns doesn't help at all. Until they fix it I will be previewing and buying my songs thru Amazon.
Doublechecking ... do you still get that if you update to iTunes 10.6.3.25 (just released today)?

I imported tiff images into Lightroom 4 that were scanned by DigMyPics.com. The color of the images look good on the Windows 7 photo viewer. It looks horrible in Lightroom 4. My monitor is callibrated, the import develope setting is set to "none" , the box is unchecked "apply auto tone adjustments". I think that the windows viewer is showing the accurate color of the scan and LR is not. I don't think DigMyPics would send this awful color. What could the issue be?

Yes, that certainly looks like a problem with the Lightroom rendering. Skin tones and red in general is clearly off, while Windows Photo Viewer looks good.
I'm almost certain this is a problem with the monitor profile. As troubleshooting, try to set sRGB as monitor profile (or Adobe RGB if your monitor is wide gamut), and see if the difference persists. But try to recalibrate first.
What calibrator and what monitor?

Has Apple fixed the problem with 4G cellular connection?
Has Apple fixed the problem with 4G cellular connection on the iPad 3?
Cellular connection problem was for US connection in Houston, Texas. Have an iPad 2 which functions perfectely on Wi-Fi or 3G. Bought an iPad 3 strictly to get the increased speed from the 4G LTE connection. Purchased on with the AT &T cellular. Wi-Fi functions fine, but 4G LTE connection is terrible when it connects at all. Went to AT&T and they said no problems with service in my area, but never get over 2 bars and most times, Web pages load very slow or will hang and not load at all. Went to the Apple store and they said it was AT&T network problem and went to AT&T and they said no problems with their service. Went to the Apple communities forum here and discovered that many people were having the same problems with the 4G LTE cellular connection on their iPad 3's. Didn't seem to matter if it was AT&T or Verizon. So I decided that I would just return the unit and wait for Apple to fix the problem. Hence my question.
Appreciate very much your time in responding to my question. -
Pavilion gv laptop colors on monitor color problem
I'm having color problems on my laptop. While the colors on my screen aren't terrible,most of the color/textures appear washed out and muted in comparison to other laptops I own. I've tried adjusting the brightness and calibrating the colors but it didn't fix the problem. I'm not sure what the problem could be. Thank you for your help.
Hey @crawford810 ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the colours on your notebook look muted.
Could you please tell me which notebook model you have and the installed operating system? For information on finding your product and model numbers click here: How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number? To see which version of Windows you are using click here: Which Windows operating system am I running?
For an issue like this you will want to test an external monitor to see if the issue is coming from the display, the GPU, or from Windows.
You will want to make sure your GPU and BIOS are up to date. You can download the most recent drivers and BIOS at the HP - Drivers & Downloads website.
I look forward to your reply!
Please click the "Kudos, Thumbs Up" at the bottom of this post if you want to say "Thanks" for helping!

Apple has a problem and the cant solve it. I had some very important call but this new iphone just shut down on me and wont turn on i tried everything u can find in apple support nothing works for me. Anyone know what i can do?
I would instead say you have a problem since nearly all IPs work as advertised. IF you do have a bad phone, take it into an Apple store and get a replacement. Hope you didn't jailbreak your phone though as Apple probably will tell you, you broke it, you fix it.
