Color marking a person in the adressbook

I remember outlook express made it possible to put different colors on different people in the adressbook. So when you got a mail it would show up colored in the inbox. Fantastic ! That´s not possible in TB, is it ?

You could create a filter that uses a rule where From is a sender (click the "+" box to add other senders) or is (or isn't) in an address book, and then applies the Action 'Tag Message'. Tag names and colors are defined under Tools/Options/Display/Tags.

I am having some huge problems with my colorspace settings. Every time I upload my raw files from my Canon 5D mark II or 6D the pics are perfect in color. That includes the back of my camera, the pic viewer on my macbook pro, and previews. They even look normal when I first open them in photoshop. I will edit, save, and then realize once i've sent it to myself to test the color is WAY off. This only happens in photoshop. I've read some forums and have tried different things, but it seems to be making it worse. PLEASE HELP! Even viewing the saved image on the mac's pic viewer is way off once i've edited in photoshop. I am having to adjust all my colors by emailing myself to test. Its just getting ridiculous.

Check the color space in camera raw, the options are in the link at the bottom of the dialog box. Then when saving make sure you save it to the srgb color space when sending to others. Not all programs understand color space and or will default to srgb. That won't necessarily mean it will be accurate, but it will put it in the ballpark. Using save for web will use the srgb color space.

Is there a feature of the Color Marker Tool missing?

Why won't it sample a color as a variable when placed by an action? Is there a step or feature I'm overlooking?
I've done a bit of due diligence and the only solution I've found is an external script. But considering the function and features of the Marker tool it would seem like that functionality has been overlooked. I say this because if a Marker can be placed by an Action to a specific set of coordinates then it would seem to follow that the characteristics of that location would change from one canvas to the next. As such being able to set the foreground color based on that change would seem to be the key function of the tool.
So what am I missing? If I'm not missing something it would seem like Adobe should be able to provide a patch promptly and without fanfare.

Sure the Color Sampler Tool except that it doesn't actually sample it just describes the color characteristics of a specific location.
Having the tool should also have Action functions of it's features as the default since the other way to get a useable color sample is to use the color sampler tool (or eyedropper) The script should just be embedded in the Marker and executed when the Marker is used as an Action step.
Creating the tool at all would seem to have the Action functionality as a requisite. Otherwise it's just another Eyedropper that happens to know where it is in the canvas. Useful at times but a bit frivolous.
I like to do a bit of research before I submit feature requests but I might do that, and thanks for reading.

How can I adjust the skin color of only one person in the photo (Elements 11)

How can I adjust the skin color of only one person in the photo (Elements 11)?
Thanks for your help.

From your question, I assume you know how to do it for all persons :
Menu : Enhance/Adjust color/adjust color for skin tones
So what you have to do is to do the color correction on a layer copy. Concentrate on the person to enhance and ignore the rest of the picture.
When you are satisfied, add a mask to the layer copy and fill it with black.
Set your foreground color to white
In the layer palette, click on the mask icon on the right of the layer icon.
Then use a brush to paint white on the skin of the person to reveal the correction.

How can i search for a color that is not in the color palette? (CS 5.5)

I have a client, that has used a certain color in a series of textfields throughout the document.
The color consists of all 4 CMYK colors and needs to be just Keycolor. However the color is not in the swatches menu, so marking it there and changing it won't work. I have downloaded a script that might have worked, but it could only find colors that were in the swatches palette. (Find / Change by Color / Overprint" version 1.2).
Ofcourse, creating a similar color and adding it to the swatches doesn't work.
Is there anyway that i can search for the color or does it really have to be done manually.
Best regards

You can only search for real, actually existing swatches. No sweat: use "Add Unnamed Colors" in the Swatch panel dropdown menu to get a list of all of the manually applied colors.
Since you want to change all of them to the same color, you don't even have to use Search/Replace. Simply delete the new colors and select the one you need in the "Replace With" dialog that appears.

I cannot get my HP Officejet 6500A Plus 710N to print in color. I have reinstalled the drivers..

I cannot get my HP Officejet 6500A Plus 710N to print in color. I have reinstalled the drivers. It used to print in color and just stopped. I think it may be a settings issue? I have checked the ink levels and they are all fine. When I print a diagnostic report on print qualify, the black prints well, but there is no color printing.

Okay, I had the same problem. It's most likely your printhead. All you have to due is clean it.
Note: I was sceptical of this approach but can fully attest to it's sound results as it restored my printer back to full functionality. Prior to this the printer only would print Black ink.
The print head is the carriage that holds all of your ink cartridges in the printer. On the 6500A it's super easy to remove. Opent your lid like your changing your ink cartridges. Remove all of your ink cartridges. Once they're out. There is a lever on the left side of the carrier that holdes your ink cartridges. Lift it up and the print head comes right out. Net take your print head to the sink and run it under hot water aiming towards the the four cirles were the ink flows into. Keep running it under the hot water until it is coming out clear. It's okay to run it under the bottom part too infact you'll need to inorder to get it completely rinsed out. Also don't touch the computer metal strips with your hand thought you can run water over them. Once your done rinsing use a blow dryer or a can of compressed air (thats what I did) to dry every thing out. I was able to get everything dry in about 5 minutes or so. Let it sit for a few minutes and check it again for water. I recommend moving it around to get full exposure to insure it is dry. Also if you use a hair dryer try to put it on a cold setting since there ar rubber grommets the surrount the inlet ink ports you wouldn't want to melt them with the hot air etc.. Like I said I used a can of compressed air. It's important to use a quick method of drying as mentioned otherwise mineral particles could become deposited on the unit. This won't happen with the methods as I've described because the molecules won't be able to bond since your blowint them off. Oh yeah, you'll want to place a clean peice of paper down as your blowing because at first you'll end up with a few black jet marks as your blowing. Also don't wear your favorite white shirt lol.
Okay once it's dry replace the print head carriage back in push the lever down install the ink cartridges. Close the lid then unplug the printer. Wait 5 seconds plug it back in then it will reboot and start its set up procedure kind of like whet you first bought the printer except you won't have to change any of your network or setup setting since they are saved in memory. Also be patient about the set up procedure it seemed very slow for me. Once it finishes you will be prompted to run the printer alignment process. Run the alignment process and you should be all good. If not at least you gave it a shot. If this doesn't work your going to have to pay $60 for a new printer head. Which is not that big of a deal but hey if you can fix it for free why not. If you do decide to buy a new printer head you might find deals online or ebay just make sure it's an Genuine HP print head. And lol use the Genuine HP ink cartridges. Finally make sure you print at least on colored page per month to make sure the ink doesn't clog up in the future.
Remember this suggestion is after you have run the HP clean ink cartridge procedure twice. Sometimes the clean procedure will correct the problem first. Also there is video I watched on YouTube about this just search for "Clean HP 6500 print head. Hope that helps
Once it's all dry just reinstall the printer head carriage

I'm trying to edit a talking head video and want to find an straightforward way to mark a spot at the end of a statement and then cut the clip at that point. Can you help? thanks.

I'm trying to edit a talking head video and want to find an straightforward way to mark a spot at the end of a statement made by the subject and then cut the clip at that point. Can you help? Thanks.

I don't know how to mark a clip the way you want without adding an audio clip and putting in markers and then splitting the clip. You would think that hitting M would be the logical way to do things, but...
But, one can just click before the place one wants to edit, hit the spacebar and hit it again when the exact place is reached. Then go to the clip menu and click split clip. That works, but one really needs to keep the cursor out of both the timeline and the event browser, or the place in the timeline gets changed..
Are you really still using iMovie 08? That drove me nuts...a year later iMovie 09 came out with some needed improvements, and iMovie 11 with its audio adjustments is even better.
Personally, I edit iMovie with kind of a meat axe. I grab whole chunks of video and put it into the project, then edit the ends to get the frame I want. I got too frustrated otherwise.

A color that's impossible on the web?

I'm mostly a print and photography person, so I have a theory about what's going on here, but in practice, I'm SOOOO stumped! Can anyone help?
I have a logo, designed in Illustrator. It uses two flat spot colors (A pantone color and a Toyo color). The PMS color is a very bright, almost neon, peachy orange. (PMS 178 M). I need to create a version of this logo for the web that looks as color-accurate as possible to the designer's original intent.
When I "save for web and devices" in AI, the color (in both the "original" and "optimized" views) goes very pink or very dull taupe-y, no matter what GIF, JPG or PNG settings I try. When I use the SWF setting, the color fidelity is pretty good, but I'm wary of providing the client a SWF file for general use where they'd usually use a GIF or JPG. (though this might ultimately be the best answer).
I've tried tweaking the color in AI, using different color models, proofing it in different ways, etc. No matter what I do, I always get web-gamut warnings that offer me no reasonable options.
There's definitely no "web safe" color that is anything like this color. But, I thought you didn't have to be "web safe" (i.e. the 216 or 256 specific colors) anymore. Shouldn't I be able to simulate this with something like #FF8875? Why won't AI save it that way? Are there colors that browsers just can't get anywhere near in a GIF but they can in a SWF file? I thought at least some browsers (like Safari) were "color-managed". I am SO confused.
Any advice, explanation, etc. would be gratefully accepted!
Thanks.
Annie

no, browser color does not have limits that Flash color lacks. You don't have your color management set up right for web design.
It's impossible to know exactly what you are doing wrong, but the fairly standard naive approach to this is to work in Adobe RGB instead of sRGB, and to have your Mac monitor set to 1.8 gamma. Either of these of these guarantee color mismatches when you strip the profile, view in a non-color managed browser, or look at the image anywhere outside color management.
Recalibrate/profile your monitor with a 2.2 gamma
Set your RGB working space to sRGB.
NOW, you can choose your hex color to match your PMS or Toyo color.
Whether you tag your images or not depends upon your specific use of the image.

Color shift when going to the web?

I spent 2 hours yesterday trying to get a graphic I had done in illustrator to export for use on the web. No matter what I did, the color always shifted - it looked like a gamma or lightening thing. The thing is, I'm not a noob to graphics or the web, I've been doing this professionally for over 10 years. But either CS3, or my recent move to the Mac, or something... has completely thrown a wrench in the works. The final response from Tech Support was that it was inevitable, and that was it. ?? What? That makes no sense.
Here's the lowdown: Illustrator document is set to RGB color space. I tried the standard color profile, and also tried setting it to unmanaged. I then tried both export and 'save for web'. I always get this shift. Everything is lighter. soo.. I then tried taking it over to Photoshop and saving from there. Strangely, it looked right in Photoshop, and then still wouldn't export without lightening everything.
Ultimately, nothing worked. What am I missing?

Here are a couple of good links about sRGB and color spaces in general.
http://www.color.org/sRGB.xalter
http://www.drycreekphoto.com/Learn/color_spaces.htm
The first one gets pretty technical after a few paragraphs; don't worry about the more technical aspects, just read the first part.
To make a long story short, the reason we create in or convert to sRGB before posting to the Web is that it has become a standard reference space for work that is intended to be displayed on monitors. No individual monitor behaves exactly as sRGB describes, but historically it was developed to be a good average color space that most monitors can achieve, or come close to.
When you go to choose a hex color for a web page, if you watch what you are doing, you will notice that the same color has a different hex code for every different color space you might try out. For instance, I have a client that uses PMS 109C in their logo and all their packaging. The only way I can select a hex color for that PMS color in a reproducible manner is to choose that color in a defined working space.
For the Web, we have all already agreed that working space should be sRGB. If I chose that color in my monitor's display space used as a working space, it would be different on every different machine I have available to me. I work on 4 different monitors, so I personally could potentially choose four different translations of that color. Which would be correct? None of them, because each monitor is different, each has a different profile, and so each would give me a different translation of the same color. So I need to make that translation while working in a standard working space. I can either select my color directly in sRGB, or I can select it in Adobe RGB (or another standardized working space that actually contains that color), and convert the entire file to sRGB before publishing to the web. Either approach works.
Since sRGB has the 2.2 gamma, you want to set your display to 2.2 so you won't see a lightening of the image when you view it without a profile.
why strip the profile? As far as I am concerned, you often do not have to, but under some circumstances will want to.
For photographs, illustrations, and paintings I leave the profile on jpegs, because color managed browsers will display them more accurately with the profile embedded. This is particularly true of Safari, for reasons I have already stated.
For graphics that need to match hex colors, I leave the profile off, because safari does not color manage hex colors. so Safari will set-up a mismatch between tagged jpegs and hex colors. If you need to match a graphic to hex colors on the page, it's better to leave the profile off.
If you are working on a page or a site with very large numbers of images, you may want to leave the profile off to save on disk space and download time as well. For me that is usually not a big consideration... but for some sites it may be.

On mine the ones that show on a coloured background are all-day events, the ones with dots and just timed events.

How to let the user define the colors for each plots in the graph (I use LabVIEW 7)?

How to let the user define the colors for each plots in the graph (I
use LabVIEW 7)?

Hi,
Take a look at this example, it uses property nodes to select tha
active plot and then changes the color of that plot.
If you want to make the number of plots dynamic you could use a for
loop and an array of color boxes.
I hope this helps.

I bought a new imac running Loin and Office 2011. The server we use to access emails runs exchange 2003 and my IT person says the imac is not compatible with the server. The server does not want to let me access using any email software.

I bought a new imac running Loin with Office 2011. I am the only mac in the office and the Server we use to access emails runs exchange 2003 and my IT person says the imac is not compatible with the server. The server does not want to let me access using any email software other than webmail access through our website. It looks as though 2011 is not compatible with 2003 per some searches online, but what are some options I have to gain full access again? I purchased parallels in hopes that this my help and I am able to use remote desktop connection to log on to server but can not drag and drop files I need. There is a shared drive on that Server we all use to exchange files.
The two main issues are gaining access to my email again and ability to drag and drop files from mac to pc. I hope this is enough info to get some solutions.
PS - IT person says my iMac's IP is what his server does not understand so that is why I can not login.

Office 2011 is not compatbile with Exchange 2003.
I suggest you post further Office related questions on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac software:
