Color blocks and lines im Photo

I just got Aperture 3. When I look at my pictures for just a few seconds they are clear then different color blocks appear in the picture. They are not present in the thumbnails only when I open a picture. Also I can open the same photos in iPhotos with no problem. If I have both iPhoto and Aperture open it does it in both programs. Apple replaced the mother board on my MacBook Pro and they say this is not a hardware problem. I'm not so sure.
Does anyone know how to fix this.
Thanks.

When I have Aperture open it appears to affect my whole system, I’m wondering if it is the same on your system? I have checked activity monitor and am not using all my RAM although I appear to be using most of it. I am going to try a clean install and see if this helps.

  • Color for links, lines around photo's.. color trouble.

    I must have changed something, somehow because this never happened in the past couple of weeks I've been playing with iWeb.
    Now I started a new website and dropped in pictures and such. I drop in a couple of photos and when I go to try and change the line color around them.. I click on the line color box in inspector and it opens the color box. But regardless which color I choose, the line stays black. I tried it with rgb, the crayons, and again regardless of what I pick it doesn't change the color from black in inspector and of course doesn't change in in the design window.
    Now the same is true for links. I highlight some text to link and put in the email address click the "format" part of the link thing in inspector and when I click on the color thing to change the color its a dark brown. I don't want it dark brown for my links. But again even though it opens the color box and even though I pick a color, it won't change it in inspector and it won't change it for my link.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks, Susan

  • Simple Annotations and Lines on Photo

    Is there a way to add simple lines and captions to photos using iPhoto or any other standard program on the Mac? Something as simple as Windows Paint would be fine.
    There must be something that comes standard with the Mac that can do it.
    Thanks,
    John

    No = nothing on the Mac
    there are many third party programs that will

  • Macbook Pro Color Profile and Calibration for Photo processing.

    Hello Friends,
    May be it has already discussed in many forums but somehow I got confused about different solutions of the questions and due to this asking once again here.
    I am using Macbook pro of 2012 and there exist many color profiles in the Display settings.
    I am a photographer who uses Photoshop for the editing as well as Canon Software.
    To get the most accurate Monitor Calibration Should I use default "color LCD" profile ?
    I am not using any External Calibration tool. I have manually calibrate the screen but somehow I am not 100% confident on that.
    In that case should I go for default "color LCD" for my photo processing. I found some light yellow cast/warm color on that profile but I am not sure..
    Any help/suggestion will be much appreciated.
    I am using:- MacBook Pro + OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5
    Warm Regards,
    Ari...

    Which model MacBook Pro? [EDIT] my bad, didn't see it in your original post
    You mentioned that there is no error message when you try to change the profile; something is probably being reported to console though. Open Console.app (in /Applications/Utilities/) and see if anything is reported to it while you're experiencing these problems. If so, please post it here and I'll take a look at it.
    Are you using the default profile that came with the machine or did you create your own by using the Calibration Assistant?
    You might try opening Color Sync Utility (in /Applications/Utilities/) and verify or repair (if necessary) your color profiles.
    Hope this helps....

  • Blue spots and lines on photos

    Hi, i just discovered these on my iphone photos:
    http://www.anony.ws/i/bmem.jpg
    look in the middle of the photo, anyone know what this is?
    the lens is completely clean and totally unscratched
    could this be something covered by my warranty?

    Every iPhone 4 I have used has this same issue. You can try to get a replacement but you will likely see the same effect. Note that this is more apparent under certain lighting conditions. I've noticed it more under fluorescent lighting. The camera on the iPhone 4 performs at it's best under natural light.

  • The screen on my ipod touch is white all over and black in the upper right hand corner only with color dots and lines run to the left hand side but stop in the middle. how do i fix it?

    right now it is the middle of april and i bought the ipod at the beging of Agust the year befor so it still has not been a year. currently it is thursday and the screen changed to the white and black corner on the monday earlier in the week (so 4 days ago). i had just broken up with my gril friend and we were fighting. in anger i through my ipod at the wall. i was aiming for my pillow on my bed so it would hit something soft but i missed and it hit the hard concrete wall in my room. when i looked at my ipod it had turn itself off and when turn on the screen was white with a little black in one corner. i have tryed to restart it by holding down the power and home button till it restarted but the screen only got brighter and then eventually went back the the brightness it was before and turn off. i can still turn the screen on but cant unlock. i know it is still working cause my alram still goes off in the morning. the ipod is a 4th generation ipod touch 16 GB memory and is black. can this be fixed at home on my own or do i have to take it in to apple. can apple even fix it or is my ipod past the point of repair. any advice would be nice. thanks in advance.

  • Printing Blocks and Bands of Color

    Two PC's (2000 & XP), an Officejet 7310 and a TV are connected to a wired ethernet router. Both PC's have been configured to use this printer as their default. It's the only printer connected right now.
    This printer had no software disk when I found it. I got the latest drivers from the HP website in the form of "exe" files. The full featured driver failed to install properly on both PCs. I uninstalled that and installed the basic driver on the XP machine first, then on the 2000 PC. On the XP PC the installer failed to create a printer, and as I remember, never asked me any information about drivers or ports to use. I had to use the Add Printer Wizard to create a printer for it on the XP PC. The installer failed to create a printer on the 2000 PC also. The Add Printer Wizard could not find the printer until I marked the printer "shared" on the XP PC. Is that normal?
    NOTE: When I tried to install the "full featured" driver software on the 2000 PC there was a warning that my hardware was below the minimum "recommended" level, but according to the HP website, I am well above the "recommended" level. (It is Compaq Deskpro, PentiumIII, 375MB RAM, 2GB free space) No such warning appeared when I installed the "Basic" driver software.
    When I attempt to check ink levels with the HP Toolbox on both PC's I get the following error:
    "The computer is unable to establish two-way communication with the device."
    I uninstalled the printer on the Win2000 PC so that I could record my steps exactly, and I also marked it "Do not share" on the XP PC because this should work (on the 2000 PC) with the XP PC shut down.
    Please verify I did this properly: Here's how I recreated the printer in Windows 2000:
    Started "Add Printer Wizard" => Next => select "Network Printer" + Next => Next (to browse for a printer) => (none were found) Back => select "Connect to a printer on the Internet or on your Intranet" + enter URL "192.168.0.101" + Next => "Error: could not connect to the printer" + OK => Back => select "Local Printer" + Next => select "Create new port" + "Type: Local port" + Next => Enter port name: "Local TCP" + OK => Manufacturers: "HP" + Printers: "HP Officejet" + Next => (keep existing driver) Next => Printer name: "HP Officejet 7310 on Local TCPIP" + select "Yes" (default) + Next => (do not share) Next => (Yes - print test page) Next => Finish.
    No test page is printed.
    Then I opened the Properties for the new printer => select "Ports" tab => Add Port... => select "Standard TCP/IP Port" + New Port... => the "Add Standard TCP/IP Printer Port Wizard" opens => Next => enter IP address "192.168.0.101" + Port name: "Local TCPIP" + Next => (some info, eg. "Protocol: RAW, Port 9100", Adapter type: "Hewlett Packard Jet Direct" {somehow it knew this time}) Finish => Close (Printer Ports dialog) => (new port appears with box checked) Apply => (printer name appears beside new port) => select "General" tab => (features: Color: "No") select "Advanced" tab => Printing Defaults... (it's a very simplistic driver) => Advanced... => (no options to control color) Cancel => Cancel => (Driver: "HP Officejet") select "HP Officejet 7300 series" in driver drop-down list + Apply => Select "General" tab => (Features: Color: "Yes") Print Test Page => (the windows logo is printed in color, but the text below says "Color support: No") select "Advanced" tab => Printing Defaults... => (sophisticated driver appears) select "Color" tab => remove check from "Print in grayscale" + OK => select "General" tab => Print Test Page => (test page looks good, says I now have color support) OK.
    But still I get color blocks and bands on some pages when printing from Word, and I think on all AutoCAD plots when plotting through the system printer (which will have to be setup again in the Plotter Manager).
    I also still get the same error trying to check ink levels.
    What am I doing wrong? Shouldn't the installer have created the printer with all parameters properly set?

    HPPSdr.exe says "Everything checks out okay with your product."  The test page prints OK.
    I also found the HP Hardware Diagnostic Utility 4.1, and it says "We're sorry, but the HP Officejet 7300 series is not currently supported by this utility."
    The problem seems to be getting more prevalent and more extreme, sometimes printing solid black, off the edge of the page too, with some blocks of color mixed in.  This is occuring from two computers (Compaq and Dell) with different operating systems (2000 and XP) and different versions of Microsoft Word (2000 and 2003).
    What next?

  • 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.

  • Pictures I have taken in the past with my iPhone 5 are now a block and when I click the photo it says loading but never loads. It's like I never took the photos. There's only the blocks with no pictures. I can't click edit or anything

    I'm trying to look at my past photos in my camera roll but all that's there is a block and when I try to click on it the photo says "Loading" but nothing ever shows up. I can't click edit or anything. When I plug my phone in to my computer and open the photo folder they're not even there. It's like I never took these photos

    I notice that the home page redirects to a secure (HTTPS) address. I wonder whether there is a setting blocking this? What if you go directly to a secure page -- will it load?

  • Making a slide show and can only see the top 1/4 of the bottem line of photos in the project.  help?

    I am working with beat markers and it was going along fine until suddenly everything went awry.  I dropped in a bunch of photos and the last photo assigned itself a time of over 3 minutes.  Beat markers are at less than 1 second.  I have removed the beat markers for the photos I want to remove, in order to try again.  When I try to delete the 3 minute picture the entire project loses its beat markers AND on top of all of that, I can only see the top 1/4 of the pics in the bottom line of the project.  I've tried several work arounds and can't fix this.  Anyone have suggestions?
