||
|| Create a duplicate object of your photo. Select the

Greyscale.
||
|| Select the upper image and - if you want to fade from
color to b/w -
|| choose Commands > Creative > Fade Image.
||
|| If you only want part of the image to remain color - say
in the middle -

bitmap mask to

||
|| If you're looking to tint or colorize the image, apply the
|| Hue/Saturation Live Filter to the top object (masked, of
course) and
|| play with the hue and saturation.
||
|| There are other methods but this should get you started.

  • Problems importing photos with a color label.

    Hello:
    I'm trying to import photos and assign a color label at the same time. My idea is to know what pics are just imported and put they into "status 0" of my workflow, that is, the pic is just imported and need to be accepted/rejected, then be classified, then made basic corrections, etc, etc. I'm going to change color labels to go from red to green status... a tipical workflow.
    OK, this is what I did:
    Import pics:
    * I select the directory and create/assign a new metadata preset.
    * In this metadata preset I set author/creator and some other IPTC fields.
    * Also I put the word "red" in Label field.
    * Do the import...
    What I can see then:
    The photos are imported and the red label is visible. You can see the red label in the grid view (at every photo's bottom) and also, at the bottom toolbar, you can see that the red label is checked. If you click at the small label at the photo's bottom you can see the small menu with the red label checked.
    OK, it seems that the color label is imported but...
    In the filmstring, if you filter to see only the red labeled pics... nothing is selected !! You have to unassign and assign again the red label and this time you can filter by color label.
    What is happening ? Does Lightroom read the color label from two different fields from the metadata ? Is something not synched during the import process ?
    Regards,
    Javier.

    Sorry if I couldn't explain correctly. English is not my main language...
    I know you can assign names to the existing colors label and create different sets. I just create my own set.
    What I'm refering to is to the Label field that is part of the basic IPTC data into a metadata preset. I'm not sure if it's the same field that is used to assign color labels.
    What I did was to create a metadata preset, assign the word "red" as the value of the IPTC Label field and then apply this preset into an import. All the pics were imported with the red label set, so yes, it is possible to do the import and set the color label. The problem is that you can't use the filters that are into the filmstring view. So there is some mismatch here: the red color is shown at the bottom of the pics imported, but the filmstring filters can't "see" that the pics have this color label assigned.

  • Iphone5s shooting photos with GREEN color only

    My mom's iphone5s currently running iOS 8.1.3 is having a problem with the camera. A part of the photo taken will turn green, as if both the red and the blue channels were turned off. The green part will be separated from the 'normal part' by a zigzag border. This problem wouldn't go away whether the flash is on or not, whether you use the front camera or the back camera. But the color would be normal if you use panorama or if you take a video. We have tried resetting, it didn't work, either.
    Anyone having similar problems? Anyone having any suggestions how to solve this problem?
    Thanks a lot~

    Hi r This will be a hardware fault make an Appointment at Apple Store. Cheers Brian

  • I am trying to print a color photo on my MacBook Pro from iPhoto (not using Photoshop) using Epson 2200 printer, and everything I do in the Color Matching and Print Settings results in a photo with a pink cast to it. What am I doing wrong?

    I am trying to print a color photo on my MacBook Pro from iPhoto (not using Photoshop) using Epson 2200 printer, and everything I do in the Color Matching and Print Settings results in a photo with a pink cast to it. What am I doing wrong?

    Have you checked the ink cartridges and made sure the nozzles are clear? Are you able to print from outside of iPhoto with the correct color?
    Try the following: make temporary copy of the library and do the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • Printing photos with Color Laserjet CM1312. Need proper printing software.

    I'm trying to print photos from my Color Laserjet CM1312 multi-function printer.
    I used to have a Photosmart inkjet, and tried to use the photo-printing softthat came with that printer, as I really like it. But that must have been designed just for ink-jet printers because the printouts end up way too heavy on ink density, to the point that some of the ink is actually scraped off during the printing.
    What software should I be using for the color laserjet?
    I don't need editing tools as I have Photoshop ... just printing tools.

    OK here am I again.
    as mentioned before I created an bogus printer with:
    lpadmin -p test -v file:/dev/null
    verified the presence of the printer;
    lpstat -p
    $ lpstat -p

    printer test is idle.  enabled since Fri 01 Feb 2013 02:54:57 PM BRST
    At first "test" printer was disabled for an uknown reason.
    tried to use lpadmin -p test to enable the printer as described on the previusly mentioned web site, but couldn't get to enable printer "test". After reading alittle more on the internet I found the command cupsenable <printer> and indeed it changed the printer status.
    tried to print;
    echo test | lp -d test
    result:
    $ echo test | lp -d test
    lp: Destination "test" is not accepting jobs.
    I tried to change the condition of the Color laser printer but did not made any difference with the cups command.
    Conclusion: how can I modify this status to make the printer accept jobs?

  • IPhoto unable to export EXIF information correctly for photos with color filters

    I have imported photos from my phone to iPhoto and noticed that some of the photos do not have EXIF information when exporting to other places or synced back to iPhone.When I am trying to view the photo in iPhoto, the date is correctly shown.
    The date shown in the iPhone photo moment tab is the import date rather than the original date when the photos were taken.
    When I am trying toview the photo in iPhoto, the date is correctly shown.
    (for example: the photo was taken in Dec 1, 2012, imported to iPhoto in Nov 1, 2014, and synced back to iPhone.
    the date shown in iPhone is Nov 1, 2014, the date shown in iPhoto is Dec 1, 2012.)
    After further looking into the details of the photo, i have noticed that theses photos are taken with color filters in iPhone or bursting photos or panoramas.
    (e.g a mono or fade filter choosed when taking photo in iPhone camera).
    When choose " reveal in finder" option in iPhoto for these photos, there are two options : view original or modified.
    the original files contain EXIF information and the modified files do not.
    the original files show photo without color filter
    the modified files shows photo with color filter, the modified photos are what the photos were contained in iPhone originally.
    When exported syncing these photos, the modified files was exported/synced, however, no EXIF information was exported. photos only contains the creation date.
    These resulted in a mess in the photo collection in my phone. photos were displayed in wrong order.
    When i export these photo to another location for back up purposes, i choose "include all location information, name, keyword", only the modified photos were exported without any EXIF information.
    The only way I found is reveal these photos in finder.
    iPhoto seems unable to export/sync photos that are taken with color filters/ panorama photos/ bursting photos.
    is there any way to solve this problem? Thank you!

    i have just taken a photo with effects and imported to iPhoto, The EXIF can be exported. The problem is syncing.
    I think this problem only happen to photo taken before iOS 8.
    EXIF of photo with effects unable be synced back to iPhone.
    Apple acknowledged that the new Photos.app in iOS 8 is handling edits differently, see:
    iPhoto and Aperture don't have edits to photos you import from iOS 8 devices
    In iOS 8 edited versions are stored in a different way from previously. And it looks like there is now a bug, that prevents the older edited versions from being handled correctly.
    Send a bug report to Apple. You could use the feedback form, if you do not have a developer account: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html

  • Taking photos with my iPhone5c color shifts from photo to square

    When taking photos with my iphone 5c ios7 I notice the color shifts from photo to square. The color changes are noticible. I have auto focus on, flash off, on both formats I click on the image to get exposure and focus and take the photo.

    Hi Rick,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If the colors look different when you take pictures in "photo" and "square" mode, make sure that there are no filters being used:
    Apply a filter:  (iPhone 4s or later) Tap the filter icon to apply different color effects, such as black & white. To turn off a filter, tap , then tap None. You can also apply a filter later, when you edit the photo. See Edit photos and trim videos.
    If you are seeing unexpected results when taking pictures with your iPhone 5c, these troubleshooting steps can help:
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    You can find the article with these steps here:

    Mayuk, you are not making any sense here.
    True color (24-bit)
    "True Color" redirects here. For images with natural color rendition, see true-color.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Truecolor.png 24 bits (16,777,216 colors, "truecolor")
    True color supports 24-bit for three RGB colors. It provides a method of representing and storing graphical-image information (especially in computer processing) in an RGB color space such that a very large number of colors, shades, and hues can be displayed in an image, such as in high-quality photographic images or complex graphics. Usually, true color is defined to mean 256 shades of red, green, and blue, for a total of 224 or 16,777,216 color variations. The human eye can discriminate up to ten million colors.[13]
     Color images composed from 3 grayscale images A, B & C assigned to R,G & B in different orders.
    "True color" can also refer to an RGB display-mode that does not need a color look-up table (CLUT).
    For each pixel, generally one byte is used for each channel while the fourth byte (if present) is being used either as an alpha channel, data, or simply ignored. Byte order is usually either RGB or BGR. Some systems exist with more than 8 bits per channel, and these are often also referred to as true color (for example a 48-bit true-color scanner).
    Even with true color, monochromatic images, which are restricted to 256 levels, owing to their single channel, can sometimes still reveal visible banding artifacts.
    True color, like other RGB color models, cannot express colors outside of the gamut of its RGB color space (generally sRGB).
    Macintosh systems refer to 24-bit color as "millions of colors".
    RGBA color space, or 32-bit color, is a variant of true color in which the additional 8-bit is allocated to transparency and indicates how transparent is the element to which the color is assigned, when overlaid on other elements.

    When trying to import photos with iPhoto from photoshop... won't let me keeps saying that the photos are already in the iPhoto library but they are not

    If you are using Photoshop from within iPhoto the following may help with the workflow.  However, we do need to know the answers to the questions posed by Terence and Larry to be able to help you.
    Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Screenshots are from PSE 10
    Note 1:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.
    Note 2:  editing a RAW file with either PSE or PS creates a new file which must be saved outside of iPhoto, i.e. the Desktop, and imported as a new photo into the iPhoto Library.

  • ?s about restoring library, recovered 800+ photos with File Salvage

    I made two errors that caused me to lose the photos I'd imported to my new internal hard drive. I was determined to start off right and stick to good rules of organization I've learned on this forum. The errors were that I deselected in advance preferences to have iPhoto import the original (thanks again Old Toad, for solving that mystery for me) AND then I emptied the trash and of course the originals got dumped. OT pointed me to File Salvage and I decided to pony up with the purchase. Last night I pulled out huge groups of jpegs onto my external hard drive.
    There seemed to be no way in File Salvage to focus only on the jpegs in the already emptied trash. I think it was showing me all jpegs on my computer. I started finding a photo I wanted, hitting restore and then looking for my next photo. I quickly realized that each photo was then appearing on my ex HD in two layers of folders and each was called jpeg 1. There is no way I wanted to open all those individual folders to get to each photo. There is no apparent way to select some of the photos as you preview them in File Salvage to do a mass export of only the ones you selected. I decided I'd rather transfer huge bunches of them and use Preview to cull out all the backgrounds, and tons unwanted jpegs. This would not be an acceptable solution if I didn't have a brand new HD. I cannot imagine wading through years' worth of jpegs or larger libraries.
    Now I have a few photos of hundreds of images. I have a few questions about when I get ready to re-import to iPhoto:
    Is there anyway to reunite the photos with the PICT title assigned to it when taken? I want them to show the time and date they were taken too. I don't know how I'll sort them back into rolls without that aid. Right now they are a completely jumbled mess sorted by size so I could rule out the thousands of jpegs in the small KB size and zero in on the 1-4 MB size my camera produces. (Strangely I found a few in the 18-20 MB size???)
    I will be putting the originals into folders to regroup them with the subjects or events they were taken from but that still leaves me hundreds of photos in each category in some cases. I'm so used to using iPhoto to sort by name, title, date and I don't know if all that gets masked with the recovery and makes it look like all these photos were taken on the same day.
    I still have my thumbnail aliases neatly organized in iPhoto from when I thought I imported all the missing photos. When I reimport do I get more thumbnails? Should I empty my iPhoto library completely before I bring the originals in? Remember that I'm working with a brand new HD and these mistakes affected everything I have in iPhoto. Right now iPhoto only contains the thumbnails, metadata information, and the modified photos that were rotated in my camera.
    I'm looking at hours of tedious work to restore my photos and any suggestions that will streamline my efforts would be welcome.

    MacLoyal:
    I know of two ways you can rename them, temporarily, sequentially so you can get them into a single or a few folders.
    1 - create a "container" folder and put all of the other folders into it.
    2 - download and launch the iView MediaPro demo.
    3 - in the new catalog window drag the "container" folder.
    All of the files will be imported into the catalog. You can check to see if the capture date in the files has been preserved by selecting a photo and clicking on the Info button at the top. Then in the Photo EXIF section you can see if the capture date is intact. If so then you can sort on the capture date to get them in chronological order. (If needed click on the house button in the tool bar to see all photos in the catalog).
    Now select all and go to the Action->Batch Rename menu item. There select Date and the number from 1. In the #### field put in 3. That will make the last part of the file name -001.jpg, -002.jpg, etc. so they will list correctly in the finder. The old and new names will show in the bottom like this. If you have more than 999 files to rename make that #### field = 4.
    Once they have been renamed you can group them as desired and select and drag them to new folders on the desktop that you've created for that purpose. Of drag directly into an open iPhoto window to create a roll of those particular images. To indicate which ones you've moved hit the 1,2 ...9 keys to assign a color label to them after moving.
    The other way is, after putting all of those folders into a container folder, open the container and type Command-F. Then in the Search window select the following criteria:
    File type = image
    File size is greater than 100 KB
    That will find all of the full sized image within all of those folders. Do a select all and drag into an open iPhoto window. The files will be copied and will be titled jpg 1.jpg, jpg 1_2.jpg, jpg 1_3.jpg, etc.
    You can then do your arranging however you want, batch change the title, sort by date if the the capture date is still there. If you want to physically rename the files you'll have to export them to the desktop using the Use Title option. Then reimport to the library and delete the first set.

  • Photo not correct color when opened on one machine.

    Photos are viewed correctly when I open them in MS Photo Editor. However, when I open them with Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 on my main computer (Windows XP)on my network, any photo that I open is much darker than the photo actually is.
    If opened on any other network computer, the photo appears the same in Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 as it does in MS Photo Editor. It has not always been this way but has recently started doing this.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program and there is no change. How can I get the photo to display correctly on my main computer so that I can use all the wonderful tools that are in Photoshop 4.0? Right now I have to go to one of the other computers to do any work on them.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    In your color settings for PSE select 'Always optimize colors for computer screen', this will display your image in sRGB color space.
    If this does not make any difference then maybe your image does not have a good color profile associated with it. Since PSE reads embedded color profile for image unlike a few other editors, set the color setting of the PSE to 'No Color Management'.
    You can also try experimenting with different color profiles under Image -> Convert Color Profile, and see if it helps.

  • Using Zen Micro(Photo) with plain Explo

    Is there a possibility to copy MP3 files simply by drag-and-drop with the Windows Explorer to the Zen Micro(Photo) so that the files are treated as MP3 and NOT as simple data files? Technically it is quiet simple to do this by using the hard disk of the Zen as an extra hard disk in Windows. Even the cheapest USB-stick based MP3-player can do this. Why not a Zen (or the iPod competition)?
    I refuse to use any specific software to copy my self ripped MP3-files because I know that that software (Creative, iTunes, even Windows Media Player and other) changes things during the file transfer and I don't want any change in the MP3 files, not even a single bit!
    I want to buy a Zen Micro Photo (8 GB, color screen), but I refuse to do it as long as it is impossible to crag-and-drop my MP3 files simply thru the Windows Explorer.

    Yeah that's what i always did. I just drag and drop MP3 files directly into my player without using any software whatsoever.
