Colors are dropping out

I have a strange thing happening. I'm sure it's something simple, but I can't figure it out. I have a layered image. I've been dragging photos onto it without any problems. But... there are two images that are now acting weird. The first is my daughter wearing a bright pink jacket. I can drag this image onto any other PS file, but on the one I'm working it is dropping out some of the pink pixels... and leaving it gray. Then, I've tried importing a Christmas tree image (I'm working on a scrapbook page... nothing super important, but frustrating nonetheless). It's an illustrator file. I can paste into other PS files and it's fine. But again, in this one, it's stripping out the colors and leaving the tree gray. I've attached three photos... the one of the scrapbook page with the issues, and the two others showing how they SHOULD look. What is causing this? I've used Photoshop for years and have not encoutnered this before. Thanks.

I'm using PS 6 Extended v 13.0 x 64 on an iMac.

Hopefully you do not do serious image editing in CMYK.
For graphic elements and certain illustration tasks it may make sense but when photographic images are concerned working in RGB until the very last steps seems advisable (separating on pdf export from Indesign for example).

Has anyone else noticed that colors are washed out on screen on the white iPhone?

Comparing the white and black iPhone 4 side by side, I noticed that colors on the screen are washed out on the white iPhone. This is clearly noticable when clicking on messages and looking at the top where the word messages appears in blue/gray color. When looking at this on the white iPhone, its more white than blue/gray.

It could be just the contrast in color with your eyes looking at the white iphone vs the black one. Your eyes can sometimes play tricks on you. But in all seriousness, iPhone screens vary in color temperatures. I have seen two black iphones 4s that looked like they had different displays in them.

How come Colors are Washed Out, FCE QT Conversion H.264

I have searched this forum on this problem, but nothing I found directly addresses this.
I have transcoded 1080p h.264 video to AIC, editing in FCE4 works beautifully. If I export to QT movie only converting to h264 original size, a 3 minute video becomes 3 GB but the playback in QT matches the colors I see in FCE. If I use FCE to QT conversion to a smaller size, 640x360 h.264, the colors get washed out. I tried MPEG Streamclip to convert the 3GB version, and the colors are beautiful, but even at 100% quality, the video looks slightly pixelated.
Still on MAC OS X 10.5.8 with QT7. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Nelson

it's an old bug, and one I hoped had been fixed with the release of QT7.
there is supposedly a field in the mov file which indicates the Gamma of the mov. from memory, QT is either not writing the value, or it's ignoring the value when the mov is played back. the bug is also evident in Safari. it only affects movies exported as H.264 (which is laughable since Apple has been heavily promoting H.264 for quite some time)
I have an urgent project for friends overseas. this is not a welcome predicament.
search the net for "quicktime gamma fix" and you'll find a raft of web pages regarding the problem. for example, Luxology Quicktime Gamma Fix.

Drop Shadows are dropping out

/off of the text a split second before the screen transitions to the next slide. Why?
I've checked all timing, triggers, etc.

Believe encore is screwing up my drives. They are dropping out. Not only my disk drive, but hard drives as well? Getting errors very consistently. I want too speak with a support officer.

I have been having trouble for sometime with encore I believe it is part of the problem in crashing my system from time to time. As well as drives dropping off.

Since installing yosemite the colors are washed out and whenever I restart the machine it reverts to the yosemite screensaver even though i have set a different desktop picture.

Since i installed yosemite, the some parts of the screen can hardly be seen and whenever I restart the desktop display reverts back to the yosemite screensaver which I have never selected. Do i need to reinstall or what.

#In the location bar where you normally type in a web address, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter. 
#If you see a window which says "This might void your warranty!", click the button which says "I'll be careful, I promise" so you can continue with the next step.

Colors dropping out of a 2 color job between reader version 8 and 10

We're having an issue displaying colors correctly between versions.
We have distiller 8 windows, creating a 2 color pdf. When I open it on my XP PC running reader version 8, everything looks great
When another user running an XP PC opens the pdf it looks fine, but when you go to print it, the second color drops out of one of the images on the print preview screen. this person is running Reader version 10.0.1.
When another user opens the pdf the color is dropping out of both the pdf itself and the print preview. We do not know what version that user is using.

Also, the pdf looks fine on my Mac opened in Preview.

Colors are displayed not correct

Hi!
I use lightroom 3.4.1 on Windows Vista 64bit with a Iiyama PRO LITE E2407 HDS monitor and a ATI Raedon HD3600. The colors of some images that I imported from my Canon EOS 500d into lightroom are "strange".
If I display the same image with another program, e.g. XNVIEW or windows-live-photo-gallery the colors looks totally different. You can see the differece here:
(http://wipux2.wifo.uni-mannheim.de/~kesnw/download/HPB/Farbwiedergabe_Lightroom_vs_XNView. PNG - larger)
The ugly colors appear on both, RAW images and JPG images.
Where can I influence the colors?
Thanks,
Peter

"The default in Lightroom is ProPhoto RGB color space."
You can set the choice of color space that's passed to CS5 in Edit menu, Preferences, External editing. That can be anything you want. So I'm assuming you've set ProPhoto RGB.You’re the expert here. I just installed the product and the default was ProPhoto RGB. I was just expressing my experience with the default install
"Right click a file and select "Edit In" CS5."
So LR passes the file to CS5 in ProPhoto, if you've set that in the preferences
Once again I just installed Lihtroom with defaults. Unless a user is made aware of the ramifications of default settings they will not necessarily discover it on their own
"Do all your edits in CS5 and then "Save As" JPG."
If you don't alter the colour space in CS5 (Edit menu, Convert to Profile...) then it will still be in ProPhoto, so that's how it will be saved in CS5. So this is not clearly described when using both products.
"Use a broswer or any other 3rd party viewer and you will see the colors are washed out."
Only if your browser color management isn't working. Either you don't have appropriate profile for the monitor, or you're not using a colour-managed program to display the image, in which case the colours look very washed out. If you have a calibrated and profiled monitor, and use a colour-managed program to view the image, then it doesn't matter what is the colour space of the image, colour management will sort it out and it will display correctly. The assumption is that JPG will be used on color profiled display is not consistent with the default save options. Why would a “save as” color space be deferent from the export to JPG file? They are both sRBG files and not consistent or clear to the end-user.
"In CS5 use the "File/Save for Web & Devices" and save a JPG version the colors are more accurate in the JPG"
Yep, because save-for-web converts to sRGB. Normal monitors are approximately sRGB, so even if colour management isn't working (no monitor profile, or using unmanaged software) then when you display an sRGB image on a normal monitor, colours will be approximately (though not necessarily exactly) right. Yes. So the “Save As” option does state sRGB and does not distinguish any color spaces or differences in the menu. So until you post or email the files, a user will ot see the effects of the settings. Have you tried this?
"If you then change the default in Lightroom to sRGB and run through the same sequence you get a better color match in the (step 2) “File/Save As” JPG."
Again, I assume you mean changing the Edit menu, Preferences, External Editing and change the colour space used with CS5. If you set that to sRGB then, without having to do a conversion in CS5, the image is already sRGB, so if you save it then it will still be in sRGB, and it will display correctly on a monitor without a profile or using unmanaged software. Yes, but the “Save As” does not distinguish between sRGB or ProPhoto. For example if I used a 3rd party asset management product to export the file to CS5 and used “Save As” in CS5 it would create a JPG file viewable in a unmanaged monitor/software/display more accurately. I have been a long time Photoshop user, but new to LR. These issues or lack of understanding on my part only occurred after I installed LR 3. I'm assuming Adobe would like to have both LR and CS5 to work seamlessly together or is that a bad assumption?

Photos dropping out

Preview Files Suddenly Go Missing, Render Entire Work Area Crashes Premiere, Audio Drops Out

I opened a Premiere Pro project I was working on earlier today and it said it couldn't find the preview files, searching my system found that the files didn't exist.
Rendering my entire work area brings up the "render window" but nothing happens, if I press cancel Premiere freezes.
Started getting a strange situation error ( 26 ::139 ) in After Effects at the same time that Premiere lost the preview files and the crashes started happening. It disallows me from editing any dynamically linked projects. In Premiere the DL's just show up as "Media Pending" clips indefinitely. Importing the compositions in AE into a new project didn't fix the issue either.
The three problems above started happening all at the same time, was working through a color grade using Red Giant software when it started happening.
Also audio drops out on playback randomly in Premiere Pro, tried various audio drivers and hardware, none entirely eliminate this problem. Sometimes the audio will cut out and "burst in" distorted very loudly, which is disturbing, even when my work area is rendered. This problem has been around since I started using PP CC.
I can provide more info soon or if people want more info pls let me know, I'm very tired and I need to get this issue resolved for tomorrow, in the mean time hopefully someone can point out a general fix for these errors or knows a few workarounds. Tried reinstalling PP and AE, no luck.
Computer is a Windows 7, 64-bit. i7 950, 12gb RAM, GeForce GTX 650, programs installed on a separate internal HDD, media files on another internal HDD. But these same issues (minus the audio dropouts) was also cropping up on a core 2 duo 13'' macbook pro.
Regards,
Zach

Hi Arjun, thank you for your help.
Though that didn't work either. At least the timeline will playback but as soon as I try to render my work region or export any video Premiere freezes.
I removed all dynamic linked files as well, that didn't seem to change anything.
Something I noticed -- the render bar on the timeline that is usually yellow for edited clips that have no FX on them is all red, nothing is yellow (or green). This is a 4 minute long edit on a music video, nothing extraordinary.
I tried creating a new project and dragging a few clips in and editing them, everything went normally and I could render and export the clips. Just any rendering done on any version of this music video edit I'm working on crashes the program.
Also recently had a problem where I opened the music video project and the song that I imported (.mp3) all of a sudden has no waveform or sound coming from it. Dragging it back into the project doesn't fix it either. Workaround was using a .wav copy of the song.

When I select the lab color mode, many options are greyed out?

Can anyone help me . When I select Lab color, many options are grey out. The following are greyed out: exposure,vibrance, black and white, channel mixer, and selective color. It worked perfectly the first time I used it but will not work now. Do I need to reset something. I have tried everything I can think of. I use a PC and PS 5.
Thanks for the help.

I'm working on the Mac versions of CC and CC 2014. If I select Lab, those very same options are grayed out.

Broadband drops out after bt upgrade work in area

Hope someone can help because the call centre is helpful but unfortunetly the help they give me is what I have tried before.
On Wednesday 17th August I received an ewmail from the BT Migration team stating that upgrade work would be taking place at my local exchange and that my phone and broadband would be out for 10 minutes on this day. The work got carried out and I received a email saying this and that my broadband would take about ten days to settle down.
Now we are about 2 months since this wok and my once reliable broadband (have hardly ever had to restart the box in the past nearly 10 years) is dropping everyday and if I do restart the box I either get on to the internet then it drops out again or I don't, getting frustrated for paying for something I can't use.
My HomeHub the original white model, only shows a solid broadband icon and flashing wireless and sometimes flashing data icon on the front of it but no internet.
I have tried using the bt broadband desktop help but it says my line is okay and I have checked all the microfilters that are attached and everything seems fine there. Phone the number at the end of the desktop help wizard and get told to try the same thing it suggests.
I have read on this forum that some other bt customers have had similar problems after upgrades and it turned out to be the homehub that was at fault.
Can anyone give me any advice in sorting this please or can anyone confirm that it is the homehu bthe issue is with and if so how to get a free replacement from bt.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Andy81,
Welcome to the forums. Yes you would be correct in the fact that the White Home Hub doesn't have the best reputation on ADSL2+ lines simply because of its age. I would advise you to contact the mods, you can do that by following this link: http://bt.custhelp.com/app/contact_email/c/4951 and ask for a replacement hub, although you would have to pay if you are out of contract. Do you know if you're out of contract?
