Color Management In Various Web Browsers For Untagged Images Broken Since 10.8 Upgrade

I have recently updated my early 2008 Mac Pro to 10.8 and have noticed that neither Safari, Firefox or Chrome handle untagged images correctly anymore. Instead of assuming sRGB as the ICC profile for an untagged image (like they did prior to upgrading), they now just convert to monitor profile which looks over-saturated on my wide gamut monitor (Dell 3007WFPHC, hardware calibrated with a Datacolor Spyder 3 Pro). Color management in Photoshop, Lightroom and all other previosuly color-aware applications appears unaltered. The interesting thing is that in Safari, if I open a link with "open in new tab", the untagged images are rendered as if their color profiles are sRGB and are displayed correctly! But just clicking the link in the same tab or "open in new window" results in the incorrect over-saturated colors. This doesn't make any sense. Anyone else have this same issue?

After digging around, I found that the behavior of Firefox can be changed to assume sRGB on untagged images by putting about:config into the address bar and changing the value of gfx.color_management.mode to 1. I vaguely recall doing something similar for Chrome years ago, but can't for the life of me rememebr what I did. When upgrading to 10.8, I did a fresh install so any mods to Chrome are no longer present.
As for Safari, I have never really used it and only notcied it behaved similarly when trying it because Chrome wasn't working. Still can't figure out why Safari works correctly when you select "open in new tab" though. Maybe this should be moved to the Safari forum?

    >Road map technique and Floor Plan Manager Technique, both are same or different.
    They are different. The FloorPlan Manager is a tool for constructing WD applications with a similar layout and user interface.  There are two different floor plans currently - the OIF - Object Instance Floorplan and the GAF - Guided Activity Floorplan.  The OIF is for the editing of a single business object. It allows for things like the nesting of header and item details.  The GAF, on the other hand, uses a road map to walk you through an activity - much like a Guided Procedure.  The FloorPlan Manager is very powerful because it can be configured using component and application configuration - allowing you to plug in different UI Building Blocks (UIBB) as Web Dynpro Components or Views.  You can change the roadmap, for instance, adding a new step by just chaning this configuration and not having to touch the code.  Consistency between applications is also a major stregth of the FloorPlan Manager. 
    The Road Map is just a UI element in WD.  It can be used to create your own custom applications.
    >can I develop this application in WebDynpro for ABAP
    Sure.  The Floorplan manager has been available for WDA since SPS13.  Have a look at the packages APB_FPM_DEMO and ABP_FPM_TEST for examples of how to build components designed for the FloorPlan Manager.
    Admittedly there aren't a whole lot of documents available on the subject yet. Some eLearning is being worked on now.  There are going to be some workshops at TechEd on the subject:
    https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Community/BringitallTogetherwithFPM%28FloorplanManager%29forWebDynpro+ABAP
    The best thing to do right now is to study the demo applications SAP provides.

  • Web browsers for os10. 3.9

    Are there any web browsers that will still work with OS 10.3.9 other than the old Safari? I don't want to upgrade my OS and the Netscape I use has problems.
    I'm tired of having to upgrade every couple of years, just to surf the net

    I've had pretty good luck with Firefox 2.0.0.20 (the last version that will run on 10.3.9). But, it's a little slow sometimes - as mentioned previously, Camino may be a better bet since it is less "tools" intensive and tends to run faster on 10.3.9. This probably has to do with my slower processor speed than that run by other users.

  • Problems uploading files to various web browsers

    I'm having huge problems with uploading files to various browsers on my MacBook Pro (running Mac Lion OS X 10.7.5)
    My default web browser is Google Chrome but I have tried Firefox, Safari and Mail, too, and they're all presenting the same problem.
    The problem is that whenever I try to attach a document to an email in Gmail or upload a photo/file to any website - it just doesn't play ball. The web browser then becomes totally unresponsive (not loading new tabs etc.) and I have to Force Quit and start the application running again. When I tried this in Mail, the application actually crashed.
    I've figured out a way to get round the problem in Gmail - creating documents in Google Drive or simply dragging documents into the email - but I'm starting an online course soon and I really need to be able to upload documents, files, images etc.
    So far I have tried:
    Updating the software on my Mac
    Updating Google Chrome
    Uninstalling and reinstalling Google Chrome
    Signing in and out of Google Chrome
    Deleting all browser history on Google Chrome
    I've also figured out that it's not my firewall as I had an unrelated problem with that and it was taken down for around 24 hours to be fixed - I tried again to upload files in this 24 hour window and encountered the same problems.
    I'm also having problems with my Windows for Mac - whenever I try to Save or Save As in Word - the programme becomes completely unresponsive, parts of the toolbars at the top white out and I have to Force Quit - hence, why I started using Google Drive to create documents. When I try and Save or Save As in Excel or Powerpoint, these programmes crash too.
    I don't know if these problems are related, but I thought it best to bring it up just in case.
    Can anyone help me?!

    In answer to my own question, in case anyone has the same issue, the problem turned out to be that my hard drive is failing.
    If anyone has the same problem, back up all your data to an external device immediately (trying to run a computer on a failing hard drive is like trying to run on a broken leg, so I'm told) and take your mac to get a new hard drive - should cost around £100.

  • Other Web browsers for Intel Mac?

    Has anyone tried using Explorer or Firefox (both NOT universal) on their Intel Mac through Rosetta? Does it work ok? Or does it slow things down, crash, or other problems?
    Safari DOES NOT work well with ebay. I tried to sell an item on ebay and it wouldn't work. Ebay says Safari is the problem.
    Thanks in advance

    IE 5 did work with ebay in Rosetta fine.
    Says it won't be available for download on Mactopia after Jan 31.
    I guess FireFox would be the next most reliable browser?

  • Web browsers for Mac Snow Leopard

    This weekend I upgrade to Snow Loepard and then version 10.6.3. I now experience high cpu usage (and slowness)with Safari. An Apple rep told me there have been reports of this issue, but no resolution.
    As a result I need to use a different web browser. I have tried Chrome (Java apps don't work at all) and FireFox (crashes every time). What other suggestions do people have that I can use as a web browser?
    Thanks

    Have you "reset Safari" from the Safari Menu?
    Also try Safe Mode (It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
    If your apps function correctly that way, go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to Users/(yourname)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
    EDIT: In the case of Safari look in Users/yourhome/Library/Internet Plug-in items and
    /Library/Internet Plug-in items.
    Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.

  • Slow image load time in web browsers. My images load too slowly.

    Hi, My images are loading slowly in my site. They are png and all under 600kb. Should they be jpegs (they are photos) Can anyone advise?

    I would do a few tests, I think you might be fine with the High setting, but also try a little lower if you can to conserve load time. It would be good to get your files to around 120kb each.
    A .jpeg file is the way to go, as .png files tend to be 20-40% larger.
    Here is an image that is set to 730x486- saved as Medium - Quality 50 - jpeg - final size 99 kb

  • Color management problem with calibrated monitor

    I'm using a Samsung Syncmaster T220 LCD profiled and calibrated with a Spyder2Express. PC runs Vista 32 SP2, Photoshop CS4. Using Adobe RGB for workspace profile. System profile is set to the Spyder2Express profile.
    Open up photo in Photoshop. Colors fine.
    Resize for web, convert to sRGB, then check preview in "Save for web..."
    Under preview, I preview the following:
    -Monitor Color
    -Windows (no color management)
    -Macintosh (no color management)
    -Document Profile
    The Preview of Windows, Document Profile settings look exactly right, whereas the Monitor Color setting looks badly darkened. I preview with Firefox, save and view image using IrfanView and Firefox. It's badly darkened. I'm stumped. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. This is similar to another recent posting here, except that I am using a calibrated display with profile.
    Anyone know what I'm missing?
    Thanks, Luke

    I'm a little confused. Previewing through "Monitor Color" and "Windows (no color management)" are both technically not color managed. Perhaps we should distinguish further between "colorspace aware" and "device profile aware". So I can understand when you say that Irfanview will do some color management, but does not use the monitor device profile. But I would have thought that Firefox in non managed-color config would still use the monitor device profile.
    I would have thought (and I might turn out to be wrong) that previewing using "Windows (not color managed)" would be the standard for previewing images for stock browser configurations. What photoshop shows me is correct rendering of the image based on what I edited in this mode. But the browser shows me a version that looks like it is not device aware, counter to photoshop's prediction. What is going wrong here? Do none of these major window apps use device profiles? Why does photoshop think that they will?
    Another thing that has been suggested is that my monitor is calibrated so far from the stock configuration that sRGB photos displayed on it without the benefit of device profiling will come out far off the mark. But I profiled the monitor in stock hardware configuration and made no adjustments, and don't think that the hardware config of the monitor has changed.
    If this turns out to be just a practical issue, then it leaves a major question. What did I accomplish by calibration if my calibration doesn't look like anything I actually display with? I can guess that prepress work will be more accurate in most respects, or I hope so anyway. But how should I manage workflow for developing images for web content if I am unable to match up what I'm editing with what the end user will see?
    Or maybe I'm just doing something wrong...or maybe photoshop is...or I don't know what. Where do I go from here? Is WCS implicated in this somewhere?

  • Color managed workflow for web and camera raw

    I recently calibrated my monitor and was wondering what is the preferred workflow for the web? I shoot with my camera in sRGB and my working space in Photoshop is sRGB aswell. The problem that has arised now is that the color managed colors in Photoshop are way different than the non-color managed in my web browser. Is this normal? And what I don't quite get is how a photo that has an embed sRGB profile looks the same in Firefox (that understand embed profiles) and Photoshop, but in Google Chrome (that does not recognize embed color profiles) shows the colors very differently, although the browser should understand the photo is in sRGB by default and show the same colors that are in Photoshop, right? So what happens here, because the colors are not the same? What information does Photoshop assign to the embed color profile that makes the colors so different?
    Anyway, I assume the problem here seems to be my newly calibrated monitor profile. The only way I can get the same colors to my photo in Photoshop and to a photo in web is to use soft proofing set to my Monitor RGB AND save without a color profile. Is this the way to go? But here comes another problem. I shoot in RAW and use camera raw to edit my photos. Camera Raw doesn't allow soft proofing, so I'm stuck with these color managed colors that are so different from non-color managed colors I get in my browser that any color correction in Camera Raw is simply useless. Unless everyone was using color managed browsers and I could start to use fully color managed workflow, but that's not the case I suppose. So, what's the solution here?

    First off, you need to be working in sRGB, or converting to sRGB when you save out files that are destined for the web. You can change the color space that Camera Raw (ACR) send your raw files to by clicking the blue text in the bottom center of the ACR window. This is probably that safest workflow for you until you get a handle on color management. If the color of your images is very important, you might consider embedding a color profile in them, which will help color managed browsers render your color properly.
    If your display's color gamut is different than sRGB (many are), you'll find matching colors for non-color-managed browsers to be impossible. But consider the average display and take heart. The best you can do is correct to a standard and hope for the best.
    Both the convert to sRGB and embed color profile options are in the save for web dialogue box.

  • Using Color profiles and exporting for web browsers

    I've been trying to figure out the answer to this question. As I'm sure you're aware Safari supports color profiles while other web browsers like Firefox do not. I would like to setup Aperture so that it displays and exports images for the widest audience possible. Unfortunately it embeds a color profile and my images on the web only display correctly in Safari. I've tried changing the proofing profiles and export settings to no avail. I didn't seem to have this problem in iPhoto, a picture there looked the same on screen as it did in Safari and Firefox but I can't achieve the same with Aperture...

    Thanks for that information, unfortunately I'm not really any closer to solving the issue since I've already tried that. 1) by default, doesn't Aperture automatically embed the sRGB color profile? 2) if I set view>proofing mode to sRGB shouldn't what I see on screen match what a "dumb" application such as Firefox does when it ignores the embedded profile and display sRGB? I've tried going into the preferences>export settings and changed everything to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 but I see no difference in the final image between that and the default setting.
    I guess my question is more specific to Aperture since I don't have this problem with other applications. For example, in photoshop if I do Export for Web it strips out any embedded profile and when I open that image in Firefox and Safari side-by-side they are exactly the same. But not so when I export an image from Aperture, when opened in Firefox it is desaturated and flat and of course in Safari it honors the embedded profile and looks fine.

  • Color management for flash galleries

    I have recently found out that Flash 10 (currently in beta) supports color management (finally!). However, for it to work it needs to be enabled by the flash application itself. Therefore, I'd like to request the Lightroom team to enable color management for the LR2 flash web galleries.
    Thanks for reading!
