Color matching not working

Imac quad core i5
Epson 2200
Osx lion
I have been printing for years on my g5 iMac using ilfords papers and ilfords own profiles with great results.
Now with my new system and same paper and ilfords profile I am not getting even a close match.
Any ideas on what is going on? On my g5 I was printing mostly from lightroom, and now with Aperture.

Hi again - just had xmas lunch..
Okay, the rendering intent for the Ilford Smooth Pearl is set in Aperture to Relative Colorimetric and black point compensation is On.  Color Profile is same as yours.
Printer settings are
Media Type:  Epson Premium Semi-gloss
Color:  16 bit/Channel selected
Color Settings: Off (greyed out)
Print Quality:  Photo
These produce good matched prints to my screen, noting that I have Onscreen Proofing switched ON in Aperture.  Had to reduce the brightness a little too

  • MicroSoft color matching not working...whatelse should we expect from MS...using IE

    NOTE using IE: "***" image is a bit fuzzy. The color around
    the small image is suppose to be the same as the background color
    of the page "CD9933". Same is true for the color about the little
    radio image. The color is set to "CD9933".
    NOTE USING ALL OTHER browsers such as Firefox, Safari, Opera:
    The "***" image is sharp and the background colors to the "***" and
    "radio" match perfectly with the background HTML color.
    Please explain to me how MS is screwing me up and if there is
    away around this?
    Thanks, --bill

    I would say the only thing screwing you is you. They look
    exactly the same
    to me in IE6 and FF1.5x.
    But the color around the radio is definitely off in both
    (#CD9038).
    For sure, IE and FF render colors the same....

  • Color replacement not working as expected

    Hello -
    I'm touching up some artwork and I've tried using both the color replacement tool as well as the color replacement adjustment and neither is giving me the results I would expect.
    The image has been indexed and I'm not using anti-alias so it's pretty easy to select the colors I want to change and the ones I want to replace them with.
    However, when I try to change the color, it's not replacing it with the exact color that I selected but a lighter version of that color instead.
    I created an example to show what I am talking about.
    In the example I used the color replacement tool.
    First I eyedropped the color I want to put in place of the wrong color.
    Then I use the color replacement tool (mode: color, sampeling: once) and click and drag over the wrong color.
    Instead of matching the color in the foreground (that I had eyedropped) it replaces it with a lighter version of the foreground color.
    I was having the same problem when I was using the replace color adjustment.
    Please see the attached file for my example.
    I was able to get the effect I was looking for by first using mode: color then switching to mode: luminocity and going over the same area a second time.
    It would seem that there should be a way to do it in one pass.
    Any help is appreciated.

    That is the way the color replacement tool works, its an old tool.  Color has three parameters, say hue, saturation and lightness (luminosity) as one parameter set. You would need to change all three for the kind of match you are looking for. The color replacement tool lets you change in one click either Hue, or Saturation, or both of these (Color) or Luminosity. In other words ther is no setting for all three. For that you need two applications of the tool.
    You should try the color range command on a separate layer with a mask to protect those areas of that color you want to keep and see if that fits your needs.

  • NewText.match not working properly

    I have a dynamic form that uses extensive Javascript.  It works great when I open it in Adobe Reader 11 but when I open it with Adobe Reader 10.01 the following code in a text field change event does not execute correctly:
    if (xfa.event.newText.match(/[^0-9-:;,]/))
        xfa.event.change = "";
    else
        if (xfa.event.newText.length > 0)
            xfa.resolveNode("this.ui.#textEdit.border.fill.color").value = "255,255,255";
    any ideas?
    I have also noticed that the toUpperCase() function is not working either in version 10.  Oddly, I tested it on the Linux Reader version 9.5 and it worked fine.

    Thanks a ton. That really helped a lot. Quick follow-up. There seems to be a problem if I change my second table. Here's my second table (SER_ENITY_USER) now:
    ID INTERESTED_POSITIONS
    141 SER_JOB_TYPE_PROMOTER:SER_JOB_TYPE_BOUNCER/SECURITY
    Now if I run your updated query:
    SELECT UNIQUE SER_CONTEST.ID
    FROM SER_CONTEST, SER_ENITY_USER
    WHERE DRAWING_POINT >= SYSDATE AND
    SER_ENITY_USER.ENITY_ID = '141' AND
    ('%' || SER_CONTEST.TYPE_OF_USER || '%' LIKE '%' || SER_ENITY_USER.INTERESTED_POSITIONS || '%' OR '%' || SER_ENITY_USER.INTERESTED_POSITIONS || '%' LIKE '%' || SER_CONTEST.TYPE_OF_USER || '%')
    With this query, it only pulls back the record with ID of 51, but it won't pull back the record with ID of 69.
    I also noticed that if I change my table (SER_CONTEST) to the following:
    ID TYPE_OF_USER
    51 SER_JOB_TYPE_PROMOTER
    69 SER_JOB_TYPE_KITCHEN_STAFF:SER_JOB_TYPE_PROMOTER:SER_JOB_TYPE_OTHER
    46 -
    Then my query pulls back the proper 2 records (with ID's of 51 and 69). Did I mess up on my query, or is this a different issue that hasn't been taken into account? Basically I want to find if any of the items for the value of a field appears in any items of the items for the value of the other field.
    Like where if TYPE_OF_USER equals:
    SER_JOB_TYPE_PROMOTER:SER_JOB_TYPE_BARBACK/BUSSER/RUNNER
    And where if INTERESTED_POSITIONS equals:
    SER_JOB_TYPE_KITCHEN_STAFF:SER_JOB_TYPE_PROMOTER:SER_JOB_TYPE_OTHER
    This produces a match.
    Or like where if TYPE_OF_USER equals:
    SER_JOB_TYPE_BARBACK/BUSSER/RUNNER:SER_JOB_TYPE_PROMOTER:SER_JOB_TYPE_BARTENDER
    And where if INTERESTED_POSITIONS equals:
    SER_JOB_TYPE_KITCHEN_STAFF:SER_JOB_TYPE_BARTENDER:SER_JOB_TYPE_OTHER
    This should also produce a match.

  • ITunes Match Not Working After Update to iOS 6.1

    I updated my iPhone 5 to 6.1 Now when I select a song using iTunes Match the song/artist/artwork isn't the song that plays. Has anyone else experienced this?I've turned match off to erase all songs and re-enabled it again, but I'm still getting the wrong songs. It works fine in iTunes, just not on the phone. Any ideas?

    Since update iTunes Match has not worked on my iPhone. I can see playlists and songs but not albums or artists. Have searched for solution with no joy. Sorry!

  • Secondary color correction not working in Premiere CC

    Greetings,
    I'm unable to build secondary color correction masks in Three Way Color Corrector, RGB Curves etc in the current version of Premiere CC.
    In any of these plugins, when I check "show mask" I get the usual white slate filling the frame. But when I use the color picker to make a selection the whole frame stays white. It appears that I'm making selections but it's not building the mask for some reason. When making an extreme color change I can see that the mask is not building as it affects the whole frame.
    This started after upgrading to CC. I've recently updated to the most up to date version (yesterday) and am still having the same problem.
    Premiere CC 2014.1 Release
    8.1.0 (81) Build

    *note-my Colleague is not having this problem, he's working on the same OS and same CC build but he has an Imac. So I'm guessing this problem is unique to my hardware config.
    Anybody else have this problem or know of a fix?

    I have the same Problem new MAC OS Premier Pro CC or Premier Pro CS6 both have an issue with the Title Tool. If you open the title tool and try to make color changes or change size of the font it sticks at the default color and default font. SOmetimes the title tool will work and then when I exit it's back to the default first type location, default font and default color. Sometimes it will not even let me exit the Title Tool.

  • ITunes match not working on ipad

    iTunes match is not working on y iPad, one day all the music was there now I can't get it to work. It shows the iCloud symbol and after 30 seconds or so it disappears and a massage saying now music appears. What's going on???

    Can't help -- on my iPhone, i've turned the toggle switch on in Setting>Music but it says I have not subscribed to iTunes Match and to go to iTunes on my computer and subscribe even though I have already. So, can't get iCloud to update music on my iPhone wirelessly.

  • Color controls not working correctly

    Why do swatches suddenly not show in the conrol panel? When the object and document are brand new it works, then randomly goes into the stuck mode where if I click on the fill box I get a choice of only no fill or resgistration. I can work around this using the colors panel or color picker, but often the color picker goes haywire too. At that point the file is corrupted and there's no going back. Restarting the program and computer do not help. What's going on?

    As I recall, I had been working with 3 separate images, 2 originally grayscale and 1 RGB, that I had live traced (as above, without placing the image in a new ai file). One of the grayscale images let me use the color picker to change fill color, bu not consistenly, and the other one would let me type in values and changed colors on the picker, but only showed shades of gray in the fill box and in the image. The RGB file wouldn't let me change the fill color using swatches, but I don't remember what I tried with the picker.
    I think I'm going to chalk it all up to my original mistake of not placing the image in a new file, and subsequently trying everything I could think of to work around the original problem.

  • Photoshop color field not working in color picker

    My color field is not working properly in my color picker. How do you fix this?
    WRONG (what my color picking is doing) :
    CORRECT (how it should work) :

    The catchall first step in correction is to reset the tool which, in this case, is the Eyedropper.
    With the Eyedropper chosen, right click here:
    If that doesn't solve the problem, a logical next step would be to reset your Preferences.
    To reset Preferences:
    If Photoshop is already open on your screen, close it (Quit). Then hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and start Photoshop.
    A dialog box will pop up asking if you want to delete the existing Preferences file (the "Settings"). Click Yes in the dialog box. The existing Preferences file will be scrapped and a new one will be created.

  • Color Libraries not working anymore

    Hi,
    I was creating an .acb (adobe color book) file to access my company's colors from the color picker's color libraries section and everything was going well. It was all working, I've been using it for some time, and then I decided to change the name of my library in the coding.
    After that the color libraries stopped working. Not only my color library, but the color library function in Photoshop. Now when I try to access the color libraries section from the color picker, it simply closes the color picker. It doesn't give me any error message. Photoshop doesn't crash or anything, it's only that I can't access the color libraries section.
    I tried removing my .acb file from the \Adobe Photoshop CS2\Presets\Color Books folder, but it didn't solve the problem. The color libraries still won't open.
    Anyone knows a solution to this problem. It's kind of urgent since I need that color library file working for a tool I'm developping for my company.
    Would there be someplace in Photoshop that I could reset Photoshop's color libraries to start from scratch and go back to my old version of the .acb file that was working perfectly, before I changed it's name?
    Right now I'm using Photoshop CS2, I should be switching to Photoshop CS3 soon, but I'd like to have a solution to make sure the same problem doesn't happen on CS3.
    Thanks.

    Hi OldBob,
    Thanks for your reply. Actually, I haven't had to try your solutions because for some reason the problem is fixed now. All I did was modify again the code name of my color books to something else and put them back in the color books folder and it got back to life. It still doesn't explain why the problem wasn't fixed when I deleted them from the folder, so I guess if it happens again I'll try your solutions to see if it helps.
    Thanks!
