Color Management - Not

CS6 / Mountain Lion
For some reason a message appears that this doc is not being color managed. I've been using Photoshop manges colors and selecting the correct profile with no issue—until now in Mountain Lion.
I haven't attempted to print my art yet with this error.
Here's a screenshot.

As Station_two mentioned you should keep your photo in a device-independent color space.
You can use Soft Proofing to preview how your photo will look without having to convert to the printer profile. VIEW menu, PROOF COLORS
Note, when soft proofing the title bar will show your working color space and also the proofing profile.
At the bottom of your photo set the pulldown to profile and as you can see the photo will still be your working color space.
Only select the printer profile in the printer dialog box when actually printing,

CS4 color management not working

Running under WinXP, 4GB RAM, nVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT with latest drivers:
The image display in CS4 is acting as if it were not color-aware.
Example: I open a file in which is in the ProPhoto RGB color space (and has that profile embedded) and the colors are not displayed correctly (muted and low contrast) -- the same appearance as opening such a file in a non-ICC-aware app like a browser.
Soft-proofing to sRGB does not change the appearance: colors are still wrong.
Converting to sRGB does not change the appearance while still in the dialog box -- even with Preview toggled on.
But upon executing the conversion to sRGB, the colors then appear correct -- again, as would be expected from a non-ICC-aware app.
CS3 running on the same system does not have this problem.

to Chris Cox:
>"Tony - then you'll need to contact NVidia and ask them to fix the driver.."
I'll be happy to do so -- but to be effective in getting nVIDIA to accept responsibility for this problem, may I ask where you believe nVIDIA has done something which needs fixing?
a) Is there a relevant industry standard to which you believe nVIDIA is failing to comply?
b) Is there some specification published by nVIDIA to which you believe nVIDIA is failing to comply?
c) Is there any documentation published by Adobe (e.g., design guidelines for graphics cards manufacturers to assist them in making Photoshop-compatible products) to which you believe nVIDIA is failing to comply?
d) Are there specific generally-accepted good software engineering practices to which you believe nVIDIA is failing to comply?
>"As for your display color management: we haven't seen that. That sounds a lot like your display profile is wrong, but I'm not sure why it differs from CS3. Could you check your color settings in Photoshop and for the display again?"
These look right to me. Are there any specific settings you'd like me to report?

Color Management Not Working Correctly with 2 Displays

At work I am using two calibrated monitors connected to a Mac Pro. One of the monitors is a hardware calibrated wide-gamut NEC Spectraview, the other one is a software calibrated Apple Cinema Display.
It seems like Adobe products only ever display correct colors for the one monitor that happens to be the main monitor. When “Displays have separate Spaces” is off in the system preferences, it is the monitor that has the menu bar. When that setting is on, it is the monitor that was active while the application launched.
The main monitor always seems to display proper colors, while the secondary monitor shows exaggerated colors. It seems to me, like the applications only ever read the profile for the main monitor.
I have noticed this behavior with Bridge and After Effects. I am not entirely sure about Photoshop, since I only ever use it on the wide gamut monitor, but it seems like it does NOT have the issue. I do not use any other Adobe applications.
I had noticed this behavior back in Snow Leopard while using CS5 and CS6, but I never said anything, because I was using an outdated system. I was now moved to a new Mac with the most current version of Mavericks and the most current Creative Cloud versions of these apps and it seems like the issue remains.

Suite color management is not enabled

I have Creative suite CS4 production premium. I have downloaded the trial version of InDesign. When I open InDesign go to open/ browse in bridge then in bridge edit/Creative suite color settings I get the following error message.
Suite color management not enabled.
Suite color management requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature
I get the same error if I launch bridge fro PS. I have anther machine that does not have the trial of InDesign installed and the color settings work as they should. I am assuming this problem is a result of the trial version of InDesign. Can anyone confirm this and is there a work around to fix the problem?

The "Creative Suites (CS)" are bundles of individual applications, bought and installed as a package.
The applications, when bought individually, are still given the designation CS.
The synchronisation of colour management cannot be acheived with single applications. Under what circumstances are you seeing this message?

Color Management issues

Hi,
Have had continual problems with color management not functioning correctly as it did in 10.5.
In SL and Lion, I calibrate the screen, this gives me a screen that looks ok, with neutral whites and reds that display well with the installed application icons.
But, the big but, is this;
I need and did have a wysiwyg colour managed work flow right up till SL.
10.5.8 was the last OS that calibrated to what I see is what I get, colour critically.
I could open an image editor and choose the foreground colour to be R 255 G 0 B 0 and the foreground swatch would display a red, now, I have a orange/yellow.
The display of reds is the most obvious change and inconsistency in imaging editors.
This has been with me through SL and now on upgrading!? to Lion, the same.
There is obviously a non communication/break in colorsyncs ability to manage the .icc process.
The ridiculous thing is, that when the iMac has it's display preference set to Apples supplied default, ie iMac, things display the most correctly, although not that precisely.
So my question is, What is the solution? What can be done to resolve this problem, as I am not the only photographer/designer with this problem, in a colour critical workflow.
The Macs being used are a 2008 iMac, Cinema Display and Macbook Pro core duo.
Any solutions are most welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Color management in Save for Web not working

The Save for Web dialog box in the CS6 Beta is ignoring color profiles, so color is not managed. This has not been a problem in previous versions.

The saved output is just fine. I was referring to the images in the Save for Web dialogue
I just checked my settings. CS6 apparently changed my Preview setting from "Use Document Profile" to "Monitor Color." It also changed my Metadata setting. It should not do that!
Restoring the correct Preview setting solved the color management problem, but ONLY for the Preview image. The Original image is still not color managed.
I'm on a wide-gamut monitor, so sRGB images come out looking garish if there's no color profile embedded or it's ignored. That's what's happening here with the Original image in Save for Web. I imported an sRGB image with profile embedded, and it looks just fine in Photoshop while editing. Then I went to Save for Web, with the settings Embed Color Profile, Convert to sRGB, and Preview: Use Document Profile. The JPEG preview too looks just fine with these settings, but the Original looks garish, showing a lack of color management. The color in the two views is showing as completely different, though they both represent the same image with the same color profile embedded.
Going back to CS5, the same image is properly color managed in both Original and Preview. Both images show identical color, as they should.

Color management does not work as expected, different from v3.6

Color management seems to work differently than FF 3.6.
On a home page, I have a background graphic that is supposed to blend into the page background. I have left that graphic untagged so the blending will work in all browsers regardless of color management. This works fine in IE, Safari, Chrome, and Firefox 3.6 in all color management modes.
In default mode 2 in v3.6, the graphics is not color managed because it is untagged. The page's background is left as is, and things blend perfectly. In mode 1, full color management, the graphic is assumed to be srgb and is color managed, and the page's background color seems to follow.
In Firefox 4, using mode 1 creates a mismatch between graphic and background, as if this time only the graphic is color managed and not the rest. This is bad because it now creates a situation where we cannot be sure that there will be a match.

A good place to discuss issues with Minefield 4 nightly builds and Firefox 4.0 beta builds is at the mozillaZine Firefox Builds forum.
You need to register on the mozillaZine forum site in order to post at that forum.

Acrobat does not load "Edit\Preferences\Color Management\Color Setup" properly.

When you convert a CMYK document with DeviceCMYK color space to profile, Acrobat X/XI Pro does not take the Working Space selected in "Edit\Preferences\Color Management\Color Setup" as the source space of DeviceCMYK object properly. But, after you change the "Settings" to any other setting (Like Jappan General Purpose 2) and confirm, and then change back to your wanted setting, thus, Acrobat will take the Working Space to convert color correctly. I tryed this many times, it reapears every time. It looks like that Acrobat does not load the "Color Setup" properly. Is there any one knows the reason of the problem? Is this a bug of Acrobat?

Could this only be a problem with clean installs of CS3?

Color Management in Acrobat 9: Still Not Sure What It's Doing... :o(

I'm still having some trouble getting my head around what Acrobat 9 is (not) doing in terms of color management. Hopefully someone can either confirm that I'm not crazy, or show me what I'm doing wrong (or what simple thing I'm missing):
Open a PDF that I know is tagged with an ICC profile.
Open Output Preview.
If Simulation Profile is set to the same profile then the CMYK values are correct.
If Simulation Profile is set to anything else the CMYK numbers are different. I would expect the appearance to be different, not the numbers. This makes no sense to me... it should be showing me how these CMYK values would output to different devices...
Also, I can't find a way to determine what the embedded profile is. (In this case I knew it was Web SWOP, since I intentionally created it that way, but what if I received a mystery PDF?) When I go to Document Properties it's listed as Tagged PDF: No, even though I know for certain that it does contain an embedded profile.
Output Preview always defaults to the last-use profile, even if the PDF contains an embedded profile. I would think that by default it would go to the embedded profile, and only use the last-used setting (or the default that is set up in preferences) if there was no embedded profile.
Seems like none of this jives with how color management works in every other Adobe app, or any other color-managed app for that matter. Am I just being dumb? (Be honest, I can take it!)

ICC profile from SmugMug not showing up in LR Color Managment

I've installed the two standard ICC print profiles from the SmugMug website. One is for EZPrints and the is Bay Photo http://www.smugmug.com/help/choice-of-printing-labs
Both are installed correctly and show up in the correct Win 7 directory. However, only the BayPhoto driver is shown in the LR dialog.
Any ideas why?
Thanks

I have no idea why the EZprints one doesn't show up, but you should realize that there is little point in using them in Lightroom. The technicians at both Bay Photo and EZprints actually have told me that the icc profiles they have on their website are useless as there is no guarantee that your image will get printed on the machine the profile was made for. They have many machines and paper types and that one profile is therefore useless. Secondly, both labs color manage, which means that you can just send them sRGB or adobeRGB jpegs and as long as they are correctly tagged (which Lightroom always does) they will convert them to the correct printing profile for you. Lastly, Lightroom does not have any soft proofing without hacks, so you cannot even use the profiles for that purpose.

Acrobat Color Management settings not holding

I am having issues with acrobat 8 & 9 holding the color management preferences on the intel macs we have. I have placed the .csf file in user/library/application support/adobe/color/settings. The .icc profile is in user/library/color sync/profiles. We are using OS 10.5.8 & 10.6.4 both versions are behaving the same. I have used bridge to sync the Adobe suite (AI,Photoshop and Indesign) and that works fine. Acrobat was not installed as part of the suite.

Figured out the issue. The .csf file was corrupt, remade the file and the settings held in prefernces.

Windows 8 Color Management - colors not correct in Adobe programs

I have been having a problem for some time with color management. I thought that I would cure my problem with my new Windows 8.1 system with fresh installs of all my programs, but it persists.
Here's my control image with the color #213D86:
When viewed in any Adobe program (PS CS3, PSE 10, Adobe Reader XI), this is what the image looks like on the drawing surface:
If I look at the color with the color picker in PS or PSE, I get #213D86. When I sample with a program like Iconico's ColorPic, I get #393C7D. Strangely, if I view the image with Save for Web, it appears correctly.
Obviously, I have some sort of color management issue but I don't understand it. My display is a Dell 2208WFP. I tried setting different color profiles on it but it had no effect on the problem. I tried using Spyder calibration and that made no difference. I've tweaked Windows color management settings, all to no avail.
I thought that the problem directly related to Adobe products because in every other context, such as a different photo editor like Paint.NET, the image looks fine. However, on my new Windows 8.1 system, the Windows Photo Viewer displays the wrong color as well.
Where have I gone wrong? What am I missing?
Thanks.
Will

Auto white balance is actually the culprit of these problems as your camera will attempt to measure it itself, and is often wrong. That's just the nature of these cameras. The only way to be sure is to shoot a grey card.
> Microsoft RAW Image Viewer
Is that the Vista version? Otherwise it does not do any correction for the display. Canon's zoombrowser has a checkbox that has to be turned on in order for it do correction and I do not know whether xnView can use a display's calibration. Of the apps you list, the only ones that certainly do color manage are the adobe programs, and, if your display's calibration is correct, are the only ones that you can absolutely trust.
The reason the color looks different for a second when loading in LR is that it shows the embedded jpeg (the camera embeds a jpeg preview in the RAW file) until it calculates the actual RAW conversion. LR applies a default contrast curve BTW, you can try to see what happens when you use the zerod preset.

Suite Color Management is not enabled in PS cs 6 ?

Suite Color Management is not enabled in PS cs 6 ?

If you have only Photoshop, not a full suite, you get this message as a matter of routine. It doesn't matter, no action required. Color management in the application is fully enabled, with your settings there.
What it means is that you can use Bridge to synchronize color settings across all applications in a suite. This isn't something you have to do (I have them deliberately un-synchronized).
