Cannot get accurate eyedropper sample from imported graphic

I am working in illustrator CS5 set to CMYK which my imported photoshop layered file is also. When I sample a color from the imported psd file, it will not accurately pick it up. I have to write down the numbers in photoshop and hand apply them in illustrator. This is not the way it used to work so I think I have something set incorrectly. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? When I double click on the eyedropper tool, the 2 appearance boxes are unchecked. Thank you.

You were probably SHIFT clicking the eyedropper tool to get a color sample.
The Photoshop method is more accurate as you can set the sample radius. Embedding the image gets you almost perfect values, for some reason my tests show that to be off by a very minor 1/10 %, but much much  better than not embedding.
The values are supposed to be 15m 10015m 0Y 5K form a flat tint in Photoshop.
NOT EMBEDDED
SHIFT SAMPLE FROM EMBEDDED

    After Photoshop Elements quit working for the second time in three months, I uninstalled it and now cannot get it to reinstall from the disc. Nothing happens when I insert the disc. All I can do is look at the folders and files and see nothing that tells me how to start the installation. Clicking "open with Auto play" gives me irrelevant options, view photos, share, etc. I'm running Windows 8. This program has worked, although buggy, for the past year.

    reinstall by clicking setup on your disk or downloading and installing,

  • FRM-47007: Cannot get parameter WUC_DATA attributes from Parameter List: in

    Hi,
    I am pretty sure this is a webutil message. I am running 10g through OC4J, all was working well one minute then on startup of the form I get these 2 message 4 or 5 times:-
    FRM-47007: Cannot get parameter WUC_DATA attributes from Parameter List: invalid list ID.
    followed by:
    FRM-47007: Cannot get parameter WUC_DATA_MULTIPART attributes from Parameter List: invalid list ID.
    These 2 message are repeated 4 or 5 times then things appear to run fine, I can open and read files, transfer them etc. The only thing I can think I have done differently is add a bean to a data block but when I remove the bean and restart the OC4J I still get the messages.
    Any ideas?

    Fixed,
    I dropped the WEBUTIL object group then added it again by adding the object library then subclassing it to the object group. The error messages are gone.
    Cheers

  • I have an iPad 2.  I cannot get it to print from our Hp photosmart 6525 printer.  Both Hp and apple say these machines can use AirPrint.  Can anyone help

    I have an iPad 2 and cannot get it to print from our p photosmart 6525 printer.  Does anyone know how to get the AirPrint to work between these two machines?

    Hi,
    As soon as the devices connected to your network the printer should appear as AirPrint.
    You may ensure it is connected by clicking the wireless icon on the printer screen to locate its IP, then type the IP into Safari and check if you can access the printer homepage from your iPad.
    If the printer conncted but still not being detected as AirPrint, ensure you have the latest firmware for your printer:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03312867&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en &product=5271613&tmp_track_link=ot_search
    If the printer still not being dedected I would rather suspect the network as AirPrint uses Apple Bonjour and therefore require your network to support multicasting to operate..
    You may test it by temporary setting direct connection using Wireless Direct, if the printer being detected without using the router please clarify your router brand and model to better understand your router capabiities.
    The steps to enable Wireless Direct can be found listed below:

    * Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install.
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded.

  • I cannot get my iTunes library from my old computer to my new one. The old computer is so messed up that I cannot even get google to open. I tried to copy to an external hard drive and the music was there until I went to upload to the new computer.

    I cannot get my iTunes library/music from my old computer to my new one. The old computer is so messed up that I cannot even open a browser.I tried to copy to an external hard drive and the music was there until I went to upload to the new computer. I disconnected my old computer so I will have to reconnect it I am sure. thank you for any help. Last time I transferred I used a product I purchased. That was a long time ago.

    First of all make sure that you've definitely backed up the movies to your external hard disc.
    In iMovie click on any event you don't want, go to the file menu and select 'move event to trash'. Then do the same for any unwanted projects - 'move project to trash'. Quit out of iMovie and empty the trash.
    Hope that helps!

  • Cannot get migration assistant working from PowerBook to MacBook Air - what am I doing wrong?

    Hello out there,
    I am proud possessor of a new MacBook Air with Mac OS X 10.7. Up to now, I used a PowerBook with Mac OX X 10.4.11. Although the two macs - old and new one - are connected via the same WLAN network, I cannot get the migration assistant going. The two cannot find each other, although they are only 5 centimetres apart....what am I doing wrong? Do I need an update for the PowerBook? And if yes, which one? Or should I give up?
    Thank you so much for your help, greetings from sunny Munich, Evelyn

    Have a read here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4818.
    Maybe you need this update for 10.4.11 http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3174

  • Cannot get printer function back from copy function

    On several occasions my printer switches to a function other tha "print" and I cannot get the print function back.  It seems like it should be a simple task but I have tried everything including turning it off and on.  The computer data indicates that the proper printer is chosen.  Thanks

    Hello @jbg1946,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that occasionally you are not able to print from your Windows Vista computer to your HP PSC 2510 Photosmart All-in-One Printer. I would like to assist you today with resolving this issue. Now,  you indicate in your post that your machine seems to switch functions. This is quite unusual as your printer should only perform the tasks that was asked of it. When you send the print command, your printer should print. When you select Copy on the front panel of your printer, your machine should Copy. When you want to scan and and select the Scan button, your machine should scan. If you're selecting the print button on the computer, but the printer fails to print, this would indicate a potential hardware on the printer or a software/driver issue on the computer, rather than a switch of functions. 
    To start troubleshooting I am going to have you download and run the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool. This Tool will run on your computer and 'fix printing' issues for you. Should any driver, software, or connection conflicts be found than the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool will attempt to resolve those conflicts for you.
    Please click here to download the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool. Once the website opens select the Download button on the top left. If prompted, please allow the download to Run. Once the download is complete follow the onscreen prompts to 'fix printing'. Once the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool has completed, please test printing again.
    Should the issue persist, please let me know if you ever get any error messages either on the computer or on the printer when you try to print and it fails.
    Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. Good luck!

  • Cannot get a DHCP address from my ISP

    I just got a WRT54G router, I managed to configured it all. I can ping any computers on the network. What I cannot do is get my DHCP address from my isp, meaning that I can't connect to internet.
    I am 100% sure that my ISP address was given by a DHCP server since that's how it was configured on my old router before it got smashed into pieces.
    I have the latest firmware upgrade for the router (version 6) and it is correctly plugged in my modem.
    What is strange is that couple of hours ago, I managed to get an address for about 15 minutes, then it dropped and I have not been able to pick a new one anymore, no matter what I do.
    Anyone can help me?

    Alright, but how do I do that?
    Disconnect the power cord.
    Or if its a telephony modem, hold the reset button until it reboots.

  • TS3988 i cannot get anything to send from my outbox

    I cannot get the email to send with the new program

    If you mean on your iPad and this is an iCloud email account, try going to Settings>iCloud, turning Mail off (which will temporarily remove the account from your iPad), then after a minute or so turn Mail back on (to add the account back).  Then try sending again.

  • I cannot get sound to play from the internet when I hook it up to my TV via HDMI.

    Itunes plays but I cannot get sound from the internet to play. Please help!

    How old is your MBP? Some older MBPs don't support audio through HDMI, so you have to run a separate wire.
    If your MBP is fairly recent, visit System Preferences > Sound > Output and select the device corresponding to your TV. (In my case, it includes the brand name of the TV in the "Name" column and "HDMI" in the "Type" column.)

  • I cannot get Firefox to maximize from the toolbar after the update.

    I have had no issues with firefox opening on my pc (running windows 8) prior to today. When I signed in there was an update (firefox) and I immediately noticed that I cannot get Firefox to go fullscreen from the task bar. If you hover over the firefox icon you can see the tiny window with the page loaded, but I cannot get it to maximize. I uninstalled and re installed twice to no avail. Chrome and Internet explorer work fine, but I need my Firefox up and running for work!! Please any advice will be highly appreciated! Thank you.

    I will also add that I have a laptop running windows 8 that got through the update with no issues. I just checked and firefox updated to the latest version and works fine.

  • I have a 1st gen iPod Touch and have purchased the ios 3.1, but cannot get it to download from the store to the iPod? On iTunes, it says that I have the current version of 2.1  Help!

    I have purchased the ios 3.1 update for my 1st generation iPod Touch, but cannot get it to download.  When I check the summary on iTunes, it says that I have the most up-to-date version of 2.1.  I really need to update to 3.1 to download some games for my son.  I have an iPad and do not want to purchase a new iPod if I  can get some games on the current one.
    Thanks in advance!

    So you are saying that you purchased it by:
    Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
    Is iTunes signed into the same iTunes account that purchased it?
    How long ago did you purchase it?
    Did you purchase it on another computer?

  • I just downloaded the new operating system and cannot get angry birds friends from Facebook to load.  Any suggestions here?

    I just downloaded the latest operating system to my IPad and now cannot access Angry  Birds Friends from Facebook.  Any solutions?

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.
