Cropping at angle is not accurate.... Way off!!

My neighbor brought a problem to me which I could not solve. He is running Photoshop CS3 10.0.1 on XPSP2. When he crops something at an angle, the resultant image is way off -- it is not what is within the crop mark. Any idea what is happening here?
I have CS2 and it works fine for me.

It is a crop tool bug that has been around
b for freakin' ever.
If you rotate your crop marquee AND resample (down sample) you can get a distorted image that does not follow the crop lines.
Use real units of measure in the crop setting (inches, cm... NOT pixels) or leave blank, and leave resolution blank. Resize the image after you rotate+crop.

The app store screen is way off to the right and stuck with the spinning wheel. I can't close it. Should I force close? It said iPhoto did not update.

The App Store screen is way off to the right so I can't access it. It has the little spinning wheel I can see when I swipe up to see what's open. It won't close. Should I try to force it? How much more time should I give it? I did just give Google some accessibily access that it asked for. Just upgraded to Maverick. I thought everything was fine. Says iPhoto needs a retry; but I can't get to the screen to try again. Pages also says it has an update; but also says it just updated.

Thank Carolyn,
I had tried that; but to restart it had to close, and to close it had to close the App Store, which was stuck. Finally did a force close. Am now trying to update iPhoto. We'll see if works this time.

When i print out a color photo the colors are not accurate

I have a new envy110 series CQ811A. I have a windows 7 64-bit laptop. There are no error messages and the Envy works great but when i print a picture off of a web site the colors are not accurate and i mean none of them. i have returned one printer already but this one is doing the same thing. i really like this printer but if it won't print the colors correctly i don't know what i will do. I also have a HP C4280 All In One Photo Smart and whatever is printed off the colors are great it just is not wireless. I have tried everything and nothing helps. Is there a solution

Hi easyneez5!
   Sorry to hear it's not printing web pages so well.
I do have a suggestion, that may or may not align with the way your are used to printing web pages; HP has a new and improved application for printing web page content; HP Smart Print.
   It's supported on IE (most versions) and can do some neat tricks: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/partner/microsoft/bing-bar-for-hp/smart-print.html
There are also other potential 'tweaks' you can try in the [Printing Preferences] / [Advanced]: Image Color Managment; You might try setting it from 'ICM Handled by Host System' (default) to 'ICM Handled by Printer' or even 'ICM Disabled'.
   Again, this is merely a potential way to check to see if this helps get those colors right; and remember your settings before you change them.
Hope this helps

Math.cos result WAY off

I have a function that takes an angle in degrees and converts
it to radians. From there it takes the cosine of that angle and
multiplies it by another number. The problem is the result of the
Math.cos is way off.
The first line of code is this:
var theAngle = Math.abs(myAngle)*Math.PI/180;
myAngle is = -90. the result is that theAngle becomes
1.5707963267949.
From there I have this line of code:
var objAcc = grav * Math.cos(theAngle);
note that grav is set to .45. I've double checked in the
debugger and theAngle is still equal to the above listed number.
So, the result SHOULD be that objAcc should be equal to
-1.5711675124992e-15. HOWEVER, it is actually being set to
-1.72286501471525e-1. Is there something I don't know about working
with Math.cos? If I run the function and put in the number itself
instead of a variable it works out fine. It's just that when I have
the variable in there it screws it up.

just below your definition of objAcc, what's the following
reveal:
trace(grav);
trace(theAngle);
trace(objAcc);

E72 Compass extremely not accurate

Hello. I have problem with E72 digital compass. It's not accurate - it is mistaken about direction I face in about 30-35 degrees and it makes compass useless. I've tried to turn off compass in Ovi maps, restarting device and recalibrating compass- still not accurate at all. I've turned all rotate sensors off and recalibrated compass- still no result. I live in Moscow (Russia) and got map of Russia downloaded by Nokia Maps Loader (or however this application made by Nokia called). Is there anyway to hard reset compass to factory defaults and recalibrate it? Or any other way to fix it's accuracy?
P.S. After each calibrating compass indicator tuns green, but in fact it isn't well calibrated as accuracy is very bad. And it always mistaken in the same way - compass points direction like it is turned to the right for 30-35 degrees. So the same accurate problem all the time - compass thinks he is turned to the right for 30 degrees but in fact it's not accurate.

Dear hadimassa, thank u for your reply. Unfortunately it is not very helpfull, but I appreciate your help anyway. I've read E72 manual and it's part about compass calibration. I know how to calibrate it so the indicator turnes green. And the point is not the accuracy of GPS - the GPS itself works brilliant if there are no hight buildings around. The point is that even 'calibrated' compass (when indicator is already green) points the direction wrong. Not totally wrong, but compass is mistaken for about 30-35 degrees. And even if GPS status bar is nearly fully green (many satellites seen by device) accuracy of compass doesn't improve. Maybe it is connected with my journey in tram. When I turned on Ovi Maps in tram digital compass went completly mad - pointing different directions every 3 seconds. But I thought it was because of electromagnetic field of the tram. Maybe it did damaged compass of my E72 by anyway? Is it possible?

Render Times on FCP Not Accurate?

Hi, <- My casual Greeting
Hopefully there are a few video editors out there on the forum... cause this one is program specific....
So I have been an avid Final Cut Pro guy for the last 4 years. I love the program.... I can work very easily in it but recently I got a new job in which I have been using both FCP and Adobe Premier.
Here is my issue... I have been using files that come in as MPEG 2 and have been using MPEG Streamclip to convert them over to a ProRes file for FCP. From FCP I have had to export them into 3 formats
1. Mpeg 4 (the file format our website takes)
2. FLV (Format for online video sites)
3. QuickTime (XDCAM) for our tricaster
The last week I have been using FCP and my render times have been (for a 5 min clip)
1. Mpeg 1 hour+
2. FLV 20 min+
3. QuickTime (XDCAM) 1 hour +
Yesterday I was told to use Premier as my boss uses Premier on a regualr basis and I assured him that the times would be the same as FCP is a Mac native program and that Premier was made to work on a mac but is essentially a PC program (I am eating my words now)...
I redid the renders on the same file...
On premier the render times were
1. Mpeg 30+ min
2. FLV 12 min
3. QuickTime (XDCAM) 40 min
Why is this? Do I just have something really messed up in my settings that FCP is not rendering quickly and Premier is? I would hate to have to hop over to Premier... I enjoy using FCP way to much.
The other question I have is why are FCP render times not accurate...
The renders will start saying 5 min then 10 then an hour etc.... and the time will not be accurate. If it says 5 min it may go for an hour... or if it says an hour it may just complete while still telling me I have an hour to wait.
Adobe Premier, right off the bat, will tell me the frame it is on and the percent and time left... almost to the T.
If possible... please help me get my fcp back on the right track.
Tim

Rendering can be much faster if you have a multi core intel Mac and you use Qmaster with Quick Clusters.
Here's how.
Set up Quick Clusters in Qmaster. (A description of how to do this is in the manual and also can be found in the Qmaster forum here in the Apple discussions as well as out on the web.)
Export your sequence from FCP using "current settings". (Do NOT use Quicktime Conversion!)
Open up Compressor and submit your file. Add the three output elements.
Submit the file and click "use unmanaged services"
Go have a cup of coffee while all the cores chug away at things. I guarantee it will be faster than the way you are currently exporting (if you aren't using clusters)

Presentation timing way off after export to Quicktime

I built a presentation with several embedded Quicktime movies. Want it to play all the way through automatically. Plays beautifully in Keynote, but when I export to Quicktime timing is way off. Individual clips have lots of extra time on the first or last frame. Tried all sizes of export, tried recording and then using recorded timings, but nothing works.
I'm offering free beer to anyone who has the answer.

Did you take into account the transition times. That has thrown me off a number of times. Do you have the Fit Slideshow to music option selected?
Another application that creates, IMO, terrific slideshows is PhotoPresenter. It has 25 or more themes and can save the slideshow, with Fit slideshow to music, to a variety of formats, QT, for iPod, HD, etc. This is one of their many themes.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries 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.

Macbook Pro to TV via HDMI - image way off center

Early 2008 15-inch Macbook Pro to TV via HDMI worked at first, now image is way off center on TV (like only showing a sliver of the computer image at the edge of the TV screen). Philips says it's an issue with the computer settings, not the TV. Any suggestions?

How do I make it so that the one computer that has the main itunes account on it be used on other computers, when it comes to backing up phones and not deleting data off of phone that isnt on that computer itunes becasse its all on the one main computer

how do I make it so that the one computer that has the main itunes account on it be used on other computers, when it comes to backing up phones and not deleting data off of phone that isnt on that computer itunes becasse its all on the one main computer. Baiscally the problem is that one comuter and one account has always been sued for eey persons itunes. Now if we want to be able to backup and use itunes on our own computers fro our iphones and such, how will all he data that is on our phones not be deleted once its plugged into a new computer? Also, is theere a way to get all the stuff on thw current itunes onto each computer, via differtn account name?

option discovered in preferences. Really this and any feature that moves deletes or edits a users data should as far as possible be OFF BY DEFAULT. It shouldn't by default and without the users specific say do this dangerous and unnecessary thing without even letting the user know what it's doing!!! And then cause me a few hours (as i'm new to mac) searching for the option so as to switch it off. If i hadn't noticed the status cage declaring that it was copying files then i might never have twigged that this insane thing was occurring. And if i hadn't of noticed i would have been left maintaining the contents of the folder i copied the files to, the folder which as far as i was informed and so believed was also the location of the music files i was playing. How does Apple justify this 'genius' piece of software non-design? Surely it will hurt no one if this was off by default for new users - overall at least i dare say it would cause a lot less distress in the future for the unsuspecting public at large. Thanks for the support.

Some photostream images getting cropped on ipad, but not mac?

Not sure where to post this since it involves photostream behavior on Mac vs iPad? So my apologies if this is misplaced.
Recently some images that were imported into iPhoto on my Mac, and are automatically sent to Photostream, become cropped in photostream, or at least they appear to be cropped on both an iPad and on AppleTV 2nd gen, but look fine when viewing photostream on the Mac. What's weird is the pic is cropped on the iPad, but it is the same size (pixels) as is indicated on the Mac of the original (1,488 x 1,011). By "cropped" I mean that only a portion of the photo is visible (just wanted to clear that up since the pixel count seems to be the same, so not the conventional form of cropping). Several pics behave this way, and they all seem to be ones that started life as scanned images of old prints, although not ALL of the scanned pics behave this way... only a few.
The following description was copied from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486http://
What resolution are My Photo Stream photos?
On your Mac or PC, your photos are downloaded and stored in full resolution. On your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple TV, your Photo Stream photos are delivered in a device-optimized resolution that speeds downloads and saves storage space. While actual dimensions will vary, an optimized version of a photo taken by a standard point-and-shoot camera will have a 2048 x 1536 pixel resolution when pushed to your devices. Panoramic photos can be up to 50 pixels wide.
Seems like it may be some bug with the 'optimization' process for the iPad / AppleTV? Has anyone seen this before?
Macbook Pro mid 2009, OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2
iPad 3
AppleTV 2nd gen.

No need to do a screen capture. The cropped image in photostream on the iPad can be exported to the mac. I ran some samples tonight. Pardon the content of the pic - it is a greeting card... no one i know.
Scanned B&W and Color, in 3 resolutions: 150, 300, 600 dpi.
I now see that the limits in attaching pics here is pretty restrictive, so i've put them into a smugmug album:
http://daveyeager.smugmug.com/Other/Apple-photostream-bug/27709278_6Lrgjwhttp://
note that the 150 and to a lesser extent, 300 dpi B&W scans are cropped (filenames are at the bottom of the image in the center), but all color scans look correct.
The process was...
scan on a Canon MX892 printer/scanner using Mac Image Capture in Mountain Lion,
import the files into iPhoto on the Mac,
put into photostream from iPhoto,
go to the iPad and export them from iPhoto / photostream as files to iTunes,
attach iPad to Mac to transfer the files to the Mac,
upload to Smugmug. (sounds worse than it is)

Adobe Indesign & Illustrator CS6 will not open files off server after Mac Maverick update.

I updated to Mac OS X Maverick and all the sudden my InDesign and Illustrator will not open files off of my works network. I read somewhere about installing the new Java update may help fix it, but I tried it and it did not. I have restarted my computer and reset the connection to the server multiple times, but it does nothing.
The exact message I get is: "Cannot open the files "xxxx.indd" Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file may be missing, or the file may be open in another application" I know for a fact that it is not open in another application so it is not that. I have tried multiple files on the server as well.
For Illustrator, I try to open a file from the server and it just freezes and does not respond so I have to force quit.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Please help!

If you had asked before you did this I would have told you not to move to Mavericks unless you were prepared for problems. I’m not a proponent of upgrade installations for operating systems and there’s no way to eliminate that as the cause.
That said, before you start erasing the whole machine, try uninstalling CS6 and then reinstalling it. You might want to run the cleaner tool after the uninstallation.

Preview fine in Safari but WAY OFF in Firefox, Flock, Opera....

This is really frustrating me because I can't seem to get the pages to look the same in every browser. I don't have IE (I have a Mac) so I have no idea what it looks like... Please help if you can.
The page is located: http://www.promarevents.com/VA/work.html
The css is located: http://www.promarevents.com/VA/va1.css
Here are some screenshots of what is going on:
Safari, this is how it should look...
This is Opera. The image is pushed down and the text runs off the layer. The same exact thing is happening in Flock and Firefox....
Flock having the same look.
I tried changing the code so it looked good in Firefox and Opera, but then Safari was way off... I received the files from a friend who wants me to make some "minor" changes but this is frying my brain! Thanks!

AlieneGirl,
Not having looked closely into the CSS, it seems that something in the background has an excessive fixed width, and the VA logo with the gradient seems to be centred in it, whereas the box is locked to the right edge.
If you use a sidebar and change its width, more and more of the VA logo becomes visible as the available width on screen is decreased.

JPG and TIFF colors in Bridge CS5 way off, but fine in Photoshop

Just started happening, but not sure if it was after updating to Bridge 4.0.3 or Camera RAW 6.2. The colors for RAW and PSD files are fine in Bridge, but all JPGs and TIFFs colors are blown out and way off. Opening the JPG or TIFF in Photoshop looks fine though. Anyone else having this issue, or know how to fix it?
Update: If I set the "Develop Settings" in Bridge CS5 to "Camera Raw Defaults" for the JPGs/TIFFs that are displaying improperly, the colors and tones go back to normal, but if I "Clear Settings" everything turns to crap again.

PLEASE help save my sanity and my reputation! --I have spent the last five days exhausting every possible solution to this debilitating issue. I have spent countless hours perusing the web for a solution, spent 4 hours yesterday with Adobe customer support and yet, there is no solution to be found. My issue is that the color (in every file format NEF, JPEG, PSD) completely changes color and desaturates in every one of the adobe products: Photoshop CS5, Camera RAW 6.2, Lightroom 3.2. -
Everything was working fine, and then out of no where my productivity has come to a crashing halt. This is the steps I have taken to this point:
-Uninstalling/re-installing all of the software
-Purging anything that can be purged.
-Changing color profiles
-Resetting defaults
-Resetting preferences
-Installing updated drivers for monitor, video cards
-rollling back drivers for monitor, video cards
-monitor recalibration
**and finally, today...I set the monitor up on another computer, OS windows xp, and to my complete surprise, the issue persists even on another pc with completely different hardware.
-I am at my wits end with this. I have clients ringing my phone off the hook. This is crazy!
-I have sent out for another monitor as a last ditch effort to see if something is wrong with the monitor.
PLEASE, if anyone has a solution please let me know. Apparently, the folks at Adobe are just as perplexed by these issues as we are, as I have found numerous posts on forums throughout the Internet with this same issue---and yet none of the post every found a solution.
Primary System
Windows7 64-bit

Lightroom 2 & 3 Beta color, contrast WAY off on display 2

Lightroom 3 Beta 2 / Windows 7 64bit / Dual calibrated displays
Display 1 connections are HDMI out to digital in, display 2 is digital out to digital in.
PROBLEM
In both the Lightroom 3 Beta 2, and Lightroom 2 v2.6 632038, color, contrast and so on are WAY off on my number 2 monitor. If I drag a Photoshop CS4 window from the left display to the right display I see no difference, looks fine. This is also true with Picasa 3, and iMatch Digital Image Management software and preview images in Picasa photo viewer. The issue seems to be just with Lightroom.
I don't see any settings for adjustment of the Lightroom right hand screen in either version - Help appreciated, IM

If you want to, you could zero out all the settings and then save this as a preset and then automatically that preset to all imported images. Not really sure why you would want to do this though. All your images look pretty flat. The default settings do a fair job of approximating what you see on the back of you camera when you made the shot and give you a good place to start. I tried zeroing things out for a while, and then found out I was bringing every image pretty much back to the defaults, and so stopped doing that.

Cropping at angle is not accurate.... Way off!!
