Colors problems - Iphoto to tv

I have a problem with colors in Iphoto when I plug my macbook 13" 08 in my tv. I use a mini-dvi to dvi, and dvi to hdmi to plug my macbook in to my 47" plasma hd tv (it's a Toshiba).
Everything look very great on my tv, but when I play slideshows, or presentation from Iphoto, all the colors goes bad. A lot of red and yellow. It's the same thing in front row. When I do exactly the same thing on my macbook, everything look very great.
Thanks

Have you managed to sort your problem out yet?
I got an iMac late 2009 Model with the Mini Displayport on the back,
I upgraded to Lion when it was released...
got the Mini Displayport to HDML Adapter, got the HDMI Cable,
plugged everything in, the TV knows the HDMI Cable it in but shows No Signal,
and even though the iMac flashes the Blue Screen a few times, it still doesn't pick up the TV
:-/ very confusing.

Can't print in color from iPhoto

When I try to print a photo from iPhoto, using my color printer, I get a black & white print (not even greyscale). I can print in color from other applications, just not from iPhoto (but I think I used to print in color from iPhoto). Any clues out there?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. First try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and try again. Next, remove the printer from the Print and Fax preference pane and reinstall. Also, depending on your printer brand, check the Apple Downloads page for the new printer drivers offered by Apple. Those might help.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Photograph Color Problem

Hi! I have a color problem with pictures. I have two G4's running OSX 10.3.9 and the same version 6 of iPhoto. The same picture is in both computers and the color looks the same on both computer's monitors. When I print to my Photosmart printer connected directly to the printer the picture looks fine but when I print through the network to the printer from the other computer the color isn't right. Both computers have the same print software/drivers for the Photosmart printer. Any ideas on how to resolve the problem? Tom

Hi! I reinstalled the Printer software with the newest version and solved my problem. Tom

Is there a way to change the pin color in iPhoto so I can pin my photos and places from those from others. i think it would be cool to see where my friends have also been but not mix it with mine. Thanks

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Pictures would help. A good way to do this is to post them to a free photo sharing site like Flickr and then post a link.
Also, you are in the original MBP section, and I think you need to post your question in the newer MBP section:

Lightroom 4 color problem

I imported tiff images into Lightroom 4 that were scanned by DigMyPics.com. The color of the images look good on the Windows 7 photo viewer. It looks horrible in Lightroom 4. My monitor is callibrated, the import develope setting is set to "none" , the box is unchecked "apply auto tone adjustments". I think that the windows viewer is showing the accurate color of the scan and LR is not. I don't think DigMyPics would send this awful color. What could the issue be?

Yes, that certainly looks like a problem with the Lightroom rendering. Skin tones and red in general is clearly off, while Windows Photo Viewer looks good.
I'm almost certain this is a problem with the monitor profile. As troubleshooting, try to set sRGB as monitor profile (or Adobe RGB if your monitor is wide gamut), and see if the difference persists. But try to recalibrate first.
What calibrator and what monitor?

A color problem in Apple's publishing App

I was wondering if you could help me with this problem，I really need some help，and here it is：
There is a Color problem in Mac publishing applications like Pages and Keynote，including iBooks Author，which really confuse me a lot。
When you use a certain color space（sRGB IEC61966-2.1 in this case）to create some colors with Apps like Illustrator CS6，Indesign CS6 & Photoshop CS6 etc. ，they look totally fine。BUT when you use iBooks Author （V2.0）to create the very same color with the very same color space，colors still look fine in the color panel，and here comes the problem：they look totally lousy in the actual document！！In fact，they look much lighter and faded。（See Image 1&2）
Above：Image 1
Above：Image 2
And this is also terrible with photos you import。（See Image 3）
Above：Image 3
Please tell me what I can do to solve this problem。I know maybe this is some sort of “basic” and “general” knowledge，but I really need your help。And I can't thank you enough if you can provide some effective solutions。

As far as I can see, the colour pallet and how colours are seen in any app on YOUR machine will depend on the computers System Preferences>Displays>Colour - choose your preferred setting.
I suggest first that you ensure that your colour profile settings are the same ( as your computer) in whatever Adobe application or in fact any outside image processor you use.
Creating or using a colour profile in Adobe and having a different profile on your system - will tend to give different colour hues.
A point also to remember is whatever you set up and is transferred to your product... when seen on an iPad may well be totally different again due to peculiarities and contrast / brighness setting of the iPad user.

Pavilion gv laptop colors on monitor color problem

I'm having color problems on my laptop. While the colors on my screen aren't terrible,most of the color/textures appear washed out and muted in comparison to other laptops I own. I've tried adjusting the brightness and calibrating the colors but it didn't fix the problem. I'm not sure what the problem could be. Thank you for your help.

Hey @crawford810 ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the colours on your notebook look muted.
Could you please tell me which notebook model you have and the installed operating system? For information on finding your product and model numbers click here: How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number? To see which version of Windows you are using click here: Which Windows operating system am I running?
For an issue like this you will want to test an external monitor to see if the issue is coming from the display, the GPU, or from Windows.
You will want to make sure your GPU and BIOS are up to date. You can download the most recent drivers and BIOS at the HP - Drivers & Downloads website.
I look forward to your reply!
Please click the "Kudos, Thumbs Up" at the bottom of this post if you want to say "Thanks" for helping!

Photoshop - Motion - DVDSP Color Problem

This message is crossposted in the Motion Forum because I'm not sure where the solution is to be found...
I'm putting together a dvd and I wanted to create transition animations to go between the menus. I've run into a bit of a color problem, however. To explain:
I created my main menu as a layered photoshop document (8-bit RGB, NTSC colorspace). I brought that menu into Motion, preserving all layers. I animated those layers in motion so that at the end of the animation they were another menu on the dvd, then I exported the last frame of the animation, brought it back into photoshop, and made everything line up so that it precisely matched the final frame of the animation, then saved that PSD as a new layered document. Finally, in DVD Studio Pro, I brought in the two Menu PSDs and the animated transition.
The problem I'm running into is that the color on the transition animation is washed out and somewhat desaturated compared to the menu PSDs. Rather than the seamless transition from layered menu PSD to animation and back to layered menu PSD, you can see this altered color "pop" on the animation.
Here's what I've checked and tried:
-I've exported the motion project as every codec that made any kind of sense (Animation NTSC, Apple Pro Video NTSC, etc).
-I've brought the Motion project directly into DVD Studio Pro, rather than exporting it.
-Using the color inspector in both Photoshop and Motion, I can see that all RGB values match exactly as they should.
-When I exported a frame of the animation and brought it back into Photoshop to create the second layered menu, the color matched exactly. In fact, I did the alignment using the "difference" layer mode, and there was no color shift at all.
So... any ideas?
Also: I'm going from these layered menus to a video track (first frame matches the layered menu) to another layered menu (matching the final frame of the video track)... that is the most sensible way to have animated transitions between menus, right?
Thanks in advance for any insights.
-W

Well, I found a solution... DVDSP didn't like the image in NTSC, but it seems to work with Generic RGB, provided I redo all of the animation from scratch using the same Generic RGB PSDs. A bit of a pain, but I suppose that's why I did this test after completing only one of the many animations the project will demand.
Thanks everyone for the insights.

Hi,
What is the exact name of the desktop app you have? Is it "Acrobat Reader DC", "Acrobat Pro DC" or "Acrobat Standard DC"?
(Previously, your question was posted to the wrong forum - the Reader/Acrobat DC mobile forum.)
If you have the paid product ("Acrobat Pro DC" or "Acrobat Standard DC"), you can contact Adobe Customer Care.

Epson 2200 Color problem solved...I think

I have read the posts on the color problems with 10.6 and the EP 2200. I too had the same issues after installing 10.6 this evening. After much teeth grinding and some choice words I set about solving my printing problem.
The Gutenprint driver has the same problems GIMP had. It isn't really printer specific, as in all the options you once had. I would rather have no driver than have this lame piece of software automatically installed. Gutenprint will make the printer run but that's about all it will do.
The solution is pretty easy:
1. Open System Preferences. Click on Print and Fax
2. Select the 2200 (or any printer giving you fits) and click the to delete the printer. Close prefs.
3. Go to the Epson site and download the 10.4 driver, Epson 11832. Install.
4. Also download the 10.6 updater and install.
5. Open System Prefs>Print and Fax again.
6. Click the and select the printer model, in my case Epson 2200.
7. In the drop down window Select Epson SP 2200 not the Epson Stylus Photo 2200 - Gutenprint v5.2.3! The latter being a Jack of all Trades and Master of none.
8. All the print functions reappear as expected.
Do I believe the reports of Epson dumping on the Mac market? Not a chance. Mac has the majority (well over 50% and growing) of the graphic and creative arts market. Most professional photographers I know use the Mac platform and are very enthusiastic about it. Epson couldn't afford to turn their backs on the Mac platform.
With 10.6 I did loose all my custom icc profiles from PS but not PS Lightroom. I also lost the custom monitor profile. I will re-profile my paper/ink/scanner/monitor and consider it a light hit. I'm sure I don't know why this update was so rough on the drivers. I'm also sure that there will be other pains I have yet to discover.
Is 10.6 crap? Probably not. Will I install 10.7 when it arrives? You bet! At OSX worst it is better than Gate's best!!

This is all good info, but for me at least, the real issue is not whether you can get the driver/printer to function (most people seem to be able to get it working) but when you get it functioning under Snow Leopard are there color issues.
Although the printer may work fine for basic documents etc, it is for color-critical photo work that I need my 2200. Many other posts are reporting that although the driver is functioning, there are fairly severe color issues when trying to create high-quality photographic prints using the standard color-managed workflow. This would be rather crippling for photographers and other artists who rely on their 2200.
Maybe those posting here could comment on whether they have been using their 2200 for photographic purposes and whether or not they have seen color issues. I wonder if some people just aren't noticing a problem because they aren't doing color-managed photographic work.
I haven't installed Snow Leopard yet and I'm trying to determine if this is affecting a very small percentage of people or if everyone is having trouble getting proper color from their 2200 since Snow Leopard. So far I haven't seen a single post specifically stating that they they are using the 2200 for high quality photo printing and have had no color issues under Snow Leopard.

Color problem, black 'noise' on specific colors

Dear adobe users,
At the moment I have a problem with a few specific colors within photoshop CS6, on top of my original colors you'll see a black noise effect. Some effect you'll suspect when you've turned on a different color mode. But i'm working with the normal RGB/8 color modes which shouldn't be a problem. If i save this document to a JPEG and open it with Windows Preview, the color problems dissapear. Funny thing is, if I get my color picker and hover on a black spot on my original document, the right color shows up in my color picker and not the black color I see on my screen.
What can cause this problem? Tried google to find the problem, but no luck so far. Driving me crazy as this isnt really working for me. Thanks for the help so far!

I'm guessing you have an ATI video card and have updated to Catalyst 13.1 (or gotten the WHQL driver through Windows Update).
Catalyst 13.1 has a problem properly running Photoshop CS6's GPU-based Adobe Color Engine. Basically if the red channel reaches 0, all color will be blacked out.
A workaround that retains most of your GPU functionality but avoids the problem is this: Change the Drawing Mode to Basic in the Advanced Photoshop GPU preferences. Restart Photoshop after making the change.
A possibly more acceptable workaround is to completely uninstall Catalyst 13.1, then seek out Catalyst 12.8, specifically, on Adobe's web site. 12.8 works quite well in Advanced mode.

Color problem in CS3

I recently had to replace my motherboard and video card (with identiacal cards). This may or may not be related to my problem.
My Photoshop installation now has a definate magenta cast. I am working in sRGB with my color settings set to North America General Purpose 2.
If I set my preview to "monitor" (Samsung SyncMaster 243T) the colors appear correct, but returning to the native program shifts by colors back to the extreme magenta shift.
I can also view the correct colors when using "Save for web or devices"
My monitor is calibrated and I can view images correctly outside of Photoshop.
Any suggestions?

Thank you both for your suggestions.
Just for fun, I recalibrated but got the same results.
However...
I am using a Radeon X800GT video card that has two ports. I had not set up the second monitor yet and didn't have it turned on. When I turned it on, I got the "subscript out of range" warning suggesting that I was trying to send a screen resolution that the monitor couldn't handle.
I used an ATI utility to reset the secondary monitor to the correct resolution. Then when I opened Photoshop, the colors were not correct!
Apparantely, there was a conflict in the video card that was spilling over to affect Photoshop.
Getting the screen resolutions happy on both of my monitors fixed the Photoshop color problem.
Thanks again.

Please clarify:
What is your iPhoto version?
And what do you mean by "not responding"? Is iPhoto hanging and showing the spinning beachball?
Can you launch iPhoto, if you hold down the options key while launching and select or create a different library?
