CalDav colors setting problems

The only reasonable way to distinguish calendars amongst users in iCal is color coding with a different color for each user. Trying to coordinate colors for each individual calendar across a large number of users is ridiculous. I really needs to figure out a way to allow color settings for a delegate calendar to be set and managed on each client machine, not as an inherited attribute from the server. There is no reason that I can think of to force colors to server settings.Is there any solution ?

Yep, I will second that. As I add each user to my ical just so I can view it, they all seem to be orange. I cannot change that color on my computer. What is the point of colors if you can't use them in a network environment?
I will also chime in on the side bar with the delegates heading. Under that should just be the users calendars nice and neat. Instead it puts the user name then inside that the calendar name. Just more space than needed for this.

HT1338 Mac mini display color setting problem

On my Mac mini the color displat settings are gone pinkish. I checked the HDMI cable to the LCD TV and it is okay. Help me to resolve the problem

To check if this is something in your current user account, Log Out from the Apple menu, to get to the login screen. Does the screen look "pinkish" at the login screen? If it does, there is a problem related to the overall system, or hardware.
If things look normal at the login screen, then the problem is probably related to a setting in your user account. Log in to your normal user account. One place to check is System Preferences Universal Access pane. On the Seeing tab, look at the Enhance contrast setting. Make sure it is set to Normal.

PLEASE HELP - COLOR SHIFTING PROBLEM on output NTSC monitors

http://www.smmlv.com/testproject/
Above is a link to a layered photoshop file that has a USA map and over a dozen network overlays used in a section of our video. I animate each layer on sepeartely in the video and have noticed a major problem recently, the color of the art does not hold true to placement. I created the art originally in Illustrator and then converted the file to Photoshop at 640x480, 72dpi. This has always worked perfectly in the past to display and animated artwork in FCP.
Right now, in FCP I am using the NTSC DV 3:2 frame size, and the compressor of DV/DVCPRO - NTSC. I have a JVC Profressional DV deck that hooks up through firewire and sends S-Video to my monitors. This setup has always given me a great picture even though it is not completely upcompressed. Using these settings and this art, the color lines on this map in red, light blue, yellow and purple all have a "color shift" to the left about 5 pixels. It makes it appear that the line is where it is in the file, but the color overlaying the line is offset to the left 5 pixels and transperant to about 50%. This occurs only when viewed on some TV's and NTSC monitors and projectors. The strange thing is, some monitors display the color aligned almost perfectly on these maps and other monitors and projectors show this "digital halo" of color shifting really bad. If I take the layered network overlays in these colors and color tint them to black or grey, white, light green, or even light orange, they no longer have the color shifting and the detail is perfect.
Is there any way to fix this problem? I have tried duplicating the sequence and setting the compressor to 8bit Uncompressed, and while my captured footage is not this compression, in theory the art should render at this higher resolution setting. This did nothing to solve the problem.
I also have tried using different Broadcast safe and Y/C corrector filters with different results. The Y/C filter allowed me to reposition the color problem and thus removing most of the problem, but also removing most of the color. Nothing else has allowed me to seemingly move the color into the proper possition.
What is causing this color shift on the displayed NTSC image?
In FCP 4.5 I can see my rendered video in the program viewer screen and besides the pixel compression appearing on the lines, overall the video looks great paused or even better when playing. Then you view it through my deck onto my Pro Sony NTSC 19" color monitor and it also appears great, with a slight color halo to the left of these colors, but the color in the lines are there. If you are a few feet from the screen and know what you are looking for you might see it, but doubtful. Then you view it using the same signal on a 17" Samsung TV and the color shifting makes the map and other art, like the clients blue logo, look horrible, with each color line appearing twice and offset left from each other as if you had double vision. Normally I would think it is the TV causing this, but then we tested this same movie on 2 differnt projectors. The $700 Epson projector displayed everything beautifully, again with only the slightest color halo to the left, but then the Panasonic $4000 projector made everthing in these colors look double vision again. What is going on???
One more thing to keep in mind, my color bars also show this problem with these colors as well as shot footage of these facilities. There are tall red poles in the shots and everything displays fine except for the red pole color looks like it's glowing off the pole to the left.
PLEASE tell me there is a solution to this.

I have tried Degaussing, using filters, changing cables, and testing other monitors and systems on these monitors, everthing I can think of to solve the issue. Is it FCPo or is it the monitors?... or is it a signal strength thing. Can monitors and projectors shift color when the signal is read from a DVD or Mini DV Deck? Is there a fequency difference (Ie: 75mgz or 80 mgz) that might be causing the shift in some monitors and not so badly in others. But if this was true, how would some DVD's (like Baby Einstein DVDs that use really bright colors) display red and blue perfect using these same player and monitor, while my projects is shifting color? Doesn't that rule out the signal from the DVD player if other DVD's do not have this issue?
I have uploaded the original art used, an exported .jpg file from the FCP timeline and sample photos of 2 different monitors to show to show this problem as best I can. http://www.smmlv.com/testproject/
Someone out there must have had this problem before. There's no way a color shift problem like this with Mini DV has gone on this long without someone seeing it.
One last thing about what I have tried... I do understand that with editing in Mini DV instead of uncompressed or HD video I lose a bit of resolution (4:2:2) and I see this compression occuring in some of the areas in the video where these problems persist. But, I did remake the art and rerender this project in an 8bit uncompressed settings and then displayed that up on the screen and I get the same color shift. I keep going in circles trying to find the culprit that is causing the delema.
PLEASE HELP! There are large tours going through our facilities daily and the large screen projector is displaying this problem as well. Let's just hope they don't notice and that their TV's at home or office does not display it on our final DVD's made.

Pavilion dv7-4060us Color Printing Problems...

I just bought a new Pavilion dv7-4060us Notebook and am having problems printing in color. I have a Xerox Phaser 8550DP PS Printer that I'm trying to connect to through a wireless network connection. I can find the printer on the network and install the "Xerox Phaser 8550DP PS" driver online just fine. But, after all that, when I try to print, it will only print in Black and White. For some reason it just will not print in color. I've looked through all my "printer properties" and it doesn't even show color options! It's like my computer just doesn't even recognize that the printer can print colors. Like maybe that printer's driver is for some reason not recognizing it as that actual printer?!
I tried deleting the printer and the driver off my computer and installing it using the printer's original CD, but it says it's not compatible with Windows 7 OS. But installing the driver via online and using the CD should basically be the same thing shouldn't it? So that can't be the problem. The "HP printer help website" doesn't really help at all because it's a Xerox printer and not an HP. After reading through some forum posts I figured maybe it was a firewall problem, but wouldn't the firewall stop me from printing all together...not just prevent me from printing color?
Has anyone seen this happen before or heard of anything like this happening? Right when I got the computer I kind of went through and deleted a few things I thought were Crapware, so the only thing I can think of right now is that maybe I accidentally deleted some kind of software program that lets me print color?! Which doesn't really make any sense, so I don't think that's it.
Also, I know it's not a Windows 7 OS problem or my wireless connection because my brother's computer uses Windows 7 and connects through wireless as well, but his can print color just fine. He set his computer up like a year ago so he can't remember how he set it all up or what he did, so he's kind of useless.
As of right now the only thing I can think of to do is try posting on this HP help forum and post on the Xerox Printer help forum and see if anyone has any advice for me. If you have any ideas I'm up for trying anything because I pretty much NEED to be able to print from this computer!! Any information can help out a lot so just let me know. Thanks!

I have exactly the same problem with my dv7-4171us, my husband has the same printer and it print fine on my Xerox but mine only prints in black and white, its very frustrating. I called HP and after 2 hours on the phone they couldnt fix it either.
I'm thinking of doing a full "f11" factory restore. If anyone knows how to fix the color printing problem please let me know.

Display color setting stuck at "Lowest (4 bit)"

I'm experiencing a problem that so far I haven't been able to resolve.
I am running Windows XP Home Edition, MSI Graphis Card G3TI200 Pro, Sound Blaster Audigy MP3+, 512 MB DDR RAM, 80 GB HD with plenty of room.
My system was running just fine but I was having trouble accessing a web page so I thought I might restart the computer to reload it's brains (so to speak). When the computer re-booted my color setting had changed to "Lowest (4 bit)" and when I try to reset it I don't have any other setting available.
I have downloaded the latest drivers, cold started the system, re-seated the graphic card, checked memory cards. It appears to me that everything is as it should be except the color setting. Wanted to check the voltages but the program that does that needs a minimum of 256 colors to run :(
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem is and how to fix it?
Thanks, Jim

Jim,
I am glad to hear you are all set now.
The reason I always use the nVidia Drivers for any GeForce card is: (This is the release order of Drivers.)
1) nVidia Makes the Drivers. (Same ones they post on their website)
2) Then the Card Makers get the same drivers and modify them so their logo show on the drivers along with some minor changes. In MSI's case they add their MSI Tabs.
So if you want the latest drivers with the most up to date fixes, you go:
nVidia for GeForce
ATI for Radeon
nVidia for nForce
VIA for 4in1
SiS For their Motheboard Drivers
Intel for their Motherboard Drivers
Creative for Live! And Audigy Drivers
Logitech for Mouse Drivers
etc.
It does not matter who sells the hardware, I use the Chipset Maker's Drivers whenever I can.
Take Care,
Richard

Color profile problem after installing CS4

OK.
First, let me post these side-by-side comparisons:
As you can see in Image 1 (the "before," left-side photo in each comparison), the colors and overall appearance are distorted. I've read things about gamma but it's all confusing to me. This is surely a color profile problem, right? The transition among pixels that involve colors of yellow and gray is rocky, grainy, and the flat out color is just wrong. Now this color problem affects pictures when opened in both Photoshop 7.0 and the standard Windows Photo Viewer. Meaning, whenever I open pictures in both PS 7.0 and Windows Photo Viewer (my default viewer), this color problem totally messes up certain photos and really damages my ability to edit. I'm an avid photo editor and it's imperative I have proper color display so that I can accurately edit. Keep in mind that certain pictures do not take on this error. When a photo is generally brighter, the distortion is basically invisible. It's photos that are dark or have dark portions in them that display the distortion.
*Note: I took these before-and-after pictures with my camera, because screencapping would not work, since you all don't have the same color profile issue on your computer. That's the only way I can show you!
HOWEVER, when I open photos in another standard Windows application, "Microsoft Office Picture Manager," the color problem is magically erradicated altogether. It shows photos as I've been seeing them all along, until I installed CS4 about two weeks ago. Before installing CS4, everything was fine and I had been using Photoshop 7 for years and have never had a problem. I'm guessing CS4 messed something up. It had to have. Just FYI, I uninstalled CS4, hoping it would reverse the problem. But still, the color issue persists in PS 7 and in my regular Windows Photo Viewer.
Since images display their true form in Windows Office Picture Manager, I don't think I need to calibrate my screen. Or do I? I've read things about it, and to some people, it's not necessary. Right? Okay. I really hope someone can give some advice! Thank you!
P.S. Here's the original photo. On my screen, it looks distorted when opened in photoshop or opened w/the viewer. However, here on Firefox, it's fine.

You should try to familiarize yourself with the concepts of color management.
It's kind of too in-depth a subject to walk you through from a cold start here... There are a lot of good resources out there to help you get started. For example, in just a few seconds Google turned up this:
http://www.adobepress.com/articles/article.asp?p=1315593
The one thing to remember is this: There is NO quick solution, easy set of defaults, or direct answer to making your setup do what you want without your having to understand color management.
People may tell you to calibrate your monitors, or use a particular color profile as a default, or whatever, and they may have good, solid reasons for telling you those things, but if you don't attempt to get your mind around color management it will always seem as though something isn't working right, or is simply magic, which will be frustrating to you.
Here are some basic questions to ponder:
What image color profile is your image carrying?
Is your monitor a wide-gamut display and do you have a color profile set up for it? What kind of monitor is it?
What version of Windows are you running?
Do you know the difference between a color-managed app and one that is not color-managed?
Which of the apps you're using/showing above are color-managed?
What are your settings in Edit - Color Settings?
Take some time and do some research, get your head around the concepts, and it will all make more sense I promise you.

Creative Suite Color Setting

I have Adobe CS6. When I go to my Adobe Bridge's Creative Suite Color Setting (under Edit Menu), it says "Suite Color Management is not enabled, Suite Color Management Requires a qualifying product launched at least once to enable this feature." I opened PS, ID, IL with no help. How do I solve this problem? Also Bridge's Camera Raw Preferences displaying the same error message. Please help.

Hi
Thanks for the info, do you think it would be possible in future releases?
Also im now thinking, if i take out all the csf files creative suite has installed and just leave my custom made one. Then bridge has to sync this one fir all adobe apps right?
Plwase let me know what you think?
Thanks

Trouble with Menu Color Set

The highlighted color on my Menus is very flaky, almost unreadible. Has anyone had problems here?
The preview is ok on the PC but on the Blu-Ray player its a problem.

Roy,
What color did you choose, and what is the color that the Sub-picture Highlight appears over?
In Encore, you can change the Color Set of your Sub-picture Highlights.
Now, this term, "flaky," makes me wonder if what you are seeing is the limitation of a Sub-picture Highlight. It can only be 2-bit color - either ON, or OFF, and that means no feather, or anti-aliasing. Sub-picture Highlights will look "rough," and that is the nature of their limitation. Also, the Sub-picture Highlight will appear on top of all Button elements, when selected. Can you define what you mean by "flaky," and perhaps post a screen-cap of your Sub-picture Highlight?
Good luck,
Hunt

If you have come across this problem and have solutions of it. That will be great.

Using translate function to correct character set problem....

I have a table(TBL_STOCK) on Oracle XE.
Rows come from sql server 2005 with a trigger on sql server table via the linked server.
But there is a character set problem with some character like İ,Ş,Ğ.
They change to Ý,Þ,Ð. in Oracle.
How can i correct these ? Do you suggest the TRANSLATE function ?
What do u think, if i create an After Insert trigger on Oracle table(TBL_STOCK) and convert these character using the Translate function when they inserted from sql server.
Anyone have any other ideas that can be more efficient. Any thoughts appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

PS:The NLS_CHARACTERSET of Oracle is AL32UTF8.

It is sql server 2005 and Collation is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS

Color saturation problem in Acrobat Reader 7.0.9 under Linux

Hi,
I'm working with a guy who is producing PDFs of my work with Indesign.
Using acrobat reader under Linux (version 7.0.1 and also 7.0.9), the colours in these PDFs always appear very saturated. This is a big problem for me because I cannot see with the reference viewer the results of PDFs to be sent to print.
I tried the same pdf file under OS X & Windows, it appears OK with Acrobat reader. Other free pdf readers under Linux also show the right colours (but not always the transparency ;-).
Does anybody has an idea to help me?
@Adobe people: in case you want to test, I drop a copy of my PDF file at: http://cardot.net/files/pdfcolours.pdf (2.24 MB)
Thanks in advance
Jean-Christophe Cardot

We are able to reproduce color saturation problem at our end. We have noted down and will work on this.
Thanks.

Color setting in CS5

What should I set my color setting to...Europe General Purchase 3? My other computer has North American General Purpose 2 but I can't find it on the first computer? tired I guess. Should I be in SRGB or RGB. I mainly shoot portraits and sports but I want to learn photoretouching. I have PC's...do I need a Mac or can I just update on PC?

Wow, you ask for advice without providing relevant information … and the names (»Europe …«, »North American …«) alone might have been a give-away that in different regions of the world different standards are common.
Should I be in SRGB or RGB.
What do you mean by »RGB« as opposed to »sRGB«?
RGB is a Color Mode, sRGB IEC61966-2.1 is a Color Space – which makes a big difference in meaning.
Mylenium’s advice to read up on Color Management obviously applies.
One occasionally recommended site is
http://www.gballard.net/psd/cmstheory.html
But the Photoshop Help also offers a chapter »Chapter 4: Color fundamentals« that could be worth your time.

Color Setting Issues: CS6

Loading or syncing color setting files results in different cm policies among the CS apps.
Even when loading the canned CSF's.
Example:
Load one of the defaults (i.e. North American Prepress 2) into Photoshop and the cm policy for CMYK is "preserve embedded profile".
However, load the same default into InDesign and under the same policy is "preserve numbers (ignore linked profiles)". Same goes if you customize a CSF and either oad it manually or sync it in Bridge.
That's an important difference if your company is trying to practice color management.
Assuming I'm correct about this, and there's something broke, think Adobe can fix it?
one more thing...Seems CS6 now supports Grayscale, which is great, but why can't it retain the embedded profile in the file?
Again...Assuming I'm correct about this, and there's something broke, think Adobe can fix it?

Tom,
let me start quoting the help text:
InDesign Help
--- Start
Preserve Embedded Profiles
Always preserves embedded color profiles when opening files. This is the recommended option for most workflows
because it provides consistent color management. One exception is if you’re concerned about preserving CMYK numbers,
in which case you should select Preserve Numbers (Ignore Linked Profiles) instead.
Preserve Numbers (Ignore Linked Profiles)
This option is available in InDesign and Illustrator for CMYK. Preserves color numbers when opening files and
importing images, but still allows you to use color management to view colors accurately in Adobe applications.
Select this option if you want to use a safe CMYK workflow. In InDesign, you can override this policy on a per-object basis
by choosing Object > Image Color Settings.
Using a safe CMYK workflow
A safe CMYK workflow ensures that CMYK color numbers are preserved all the way to the final output device, as opposed
to being converted by your color management system. This workflow is beneficial if you want to incrementally adopt color
management practices. For example, you can use CMYK profiles to soft-proof and hard-proof documents without the
possibility of unintended color conversions occurring during final output.
Illustrator and InDesign support a safe CMYK workflow by default. As a result, when you open or import a CMYK image with
an embedded profile, the application ignores the profile and preserves the raw color numbers. If you want your application
to adjust color numbers based on an embedded profile, change the CMYK color policy to Preserve Embedded Profiles in the
Color Settings dialog box. You can easily restore the safe CMYK workflow by changing the CMYK color policy back to
Preserve Numbers (Ignore Linked Profiles).
You can override safe CMYK settings when you print a document or save it to Adobe PDF. However, doing so may cause
colors to be reseparated. For example, pure CMYK black objects may be reseparated as rich black. For more information
on color management options for printing and saving PDFs, search in Help.
--- End
My opinion:
It seems, InDesign uses despite the synchronization via Bridge Preserve Numbers instead of Preserve Embedded Profile for safety.
Personally, I would use for one project just one CMYK space:
a) convert in Photoshop all images RGB-->CMYK using this profile and embed the profile in each image
b) make document in InDesign with Preserve Numbers
c) export as PDF without profiles, but with output-intent for this profile (PDF-X1a)
InDesign (even CS6) ignores Gray profiles for viewing and doesn't embed them in PDFs, see (1).
IMO, the only accurate workflow is this one:
a) convert images to Grayscale using a "black ink profile" which is derived from the project CMYK space
b) place Grayscale in channel K of otherwise void CMYK file
c) export as PDF as above

Color setting

In Cs2 the color setting I have is North American General Purpose 2 but in Cs5 that is not listed but Europe General Purpose 3 is. Are they the same or how can I get them the same...rookie question I am sure.

i think the most important Adobe color settings "Preserve Embedded Profiles" and alert us of "Profile Matches" and "Missing Profiles"
these are how i would start a 'rookie' out:
with these two hard-fast general rules:
always use the embedded profile and Convert to the desired Working Space (if needed)
if the file is untagged, first Edit> Assign Profile (the one that looks best on calibrated monitor)
always embed the profile (apps that don't use embedded profiles will just ignore it)
