CS4 Bridge Colour Issue.

Using my Canon 5D MKII, I shoot everything in RAW with the colour space set in the camera to Adobe RGB. Looking at the RAW files in Adobe CS4 Bridge, the Metadata file properties states that the Colour profile is 'Untagged'. Is that correct - or should it say Adobe RGB?
When you open up the RAW file in ACR, it states that the image has the Adobe RGB profile at the bottom of the screen and when it comes into PS, no profile mismatch warning comes up. Its only when you save the image as a PSD file when the metadata Colour Profile states Adobe RGB.
Also...
Since moving onto Windows Vista, if I am displaying images in Bridge through a video projector, the colours look over-saturated, whilst images displayed in other applications look fine. This does not happen on my standard monitor.
Any ideas what might be causing this?

Ray, it will do a lot more good if you file an official bug report at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
Be sure to describe the configuration in extreme detail.

Bridge/Photoshop Colour Issues

Bridge/ Photoshop Colour Issues:
It appears that there are a few pictures that are noticeably dull, when I load them in Bridge and Photoshop. Those same pictures are very vibrant when I look at them directly from the SD card or load them into Picassa. I tried editing the picture, saving it in Photoshop, then opening it up in Picassa and it has the same dullness. Since having this issue, I have updated the drivers on my Quadro graphics card, but I think it may be something to do with the way that I set up Adobe Bridge, because this is the first time I have imported a large batch of photos from Bridge. However, I pretty much left everything as the standard settings in Bridge. Any suggestions?
FYI - I just started using the Adobe Master Collection, with Win 7 Pro 64 and Huey Pro embedded on my laptop. My colour settings are Huey Pro on my laptop, SRGB in Photoshop and General Purpose for Bridge (I haven’t had this issue before and Huey Pro has been my colour settings on my laptop since I got Adobe).

That turns off color management in Photoshop, so yes, that would match other applications that aren't color managed at all. You're not fixing the problem, you're just hiding the symptom.
If you're certain the Photoshop version is wrong, that means your monitor profile is corrupt. A corrupt monitor profile only affects color managed software like Photoshop. Other applications don't use the monitor profile and never touch it.
If it's merely the fact that Photoshop is different, that's normal and all as it should be. With a valid monitor profile Photoshop is right and the others wrong.

CS4 Bridge can't see CS3 Photoshop's ACR

Hi all, I have been using CS3 PS + ACR happily for the last year. Yesterday I downloaded the CS4 trial packs for Dreamweaver, Flash, etc, and installed them, along with CS4 Bridge.
CS4 Bridge will send an image to CS3 PS but when I select "Open in Camera Raw" it tells me I have to "launch a qualifying product at least once to include this feature".
Que pasa?
Fortunately, CS3 Bridge is still available, and still has all its cups in the cupboard; but it's rather inconvenient running both.
I would be grateful for any suggestions,
John Ewing

I was chary of getting PS CS4 trial because I didn't want to break any CS3 license parameters in the registry if I let the trial period run out.
File associations are no problem, and ACR probably has no issues with Bridge unless they've made major changes to the interface, which I doubt. I think it's more likely to be a simple question of one product seeing the other one's licensing rights in the registry.
There is an Adobe Clean Script which will remove all traces of the trial. CS4 Clean Script.
I really think you'll get in a mess with versions mixed up like that!
There are major changes to Bridge and ACR and I really advise you not to get yourself and the computer in a muddle.

Removing CS3 bridge, keeping CS4 Bridge...

I am cleaning out previous version of CS3 suite from a mac. However I've had some issues that I wondered if anyone has a solution to.
When running CS3 Bridge, images there are not in CS4 Bridge. There is no export feature I know of (is there?). How do I get everything that is in CS3 Bridge to CS4 to show up before I delete CS3 apps ? (this macbook pro I am using was loaded from CS2 days up to CS4...I have inherited it at work and need to make room but still keep images intact, plus I never used Bridge before so any noob help is appreciated)

Bridge only creates preview thumbs for its own cache library and not the
original files, they keep untouched in the same folders as you have them now
on your system.
You can safely uninstall CS3 without losing images. However you will need to
cache the images again when opening CS4 but that is only taking some time.
You will need to recreate new workspaces for PS and Bridge and also set the
preferences again to your wishes but that is only once. Keep in mind that
actions and brushes that you have created or loaded on your CS3 app don't
copy automatically. Best you save them from PS CS3 first in a folder you can
easily access and in CS4 load them again from that folder.
For exact location for prefs in CS3 and CS4 see those knowledge base

CS4 bridge displays jpegs thumbnails only

CS4 bridge displays jpegs thumbnails only
Can someone who may have seen this problem or experienced a silimilar issue explain what is happening to CS4 bridge. I just installed PC version of CS4 photophop. It appears that in bridge, only jpegs thumnails will display. Tiffs and PSD files only show up as icons. Also the file association menu seems to have disappeared. Now if I log in as administrator , everything works properly. All thumbnails display correctly, assoication menu appears and bridge will update fine. Does anyone have an idea of what is happening here??
Joel F

Did this happen recently, or has it always worked this way? If this is a new occurance some file may be corrupted and your best bet would be to reset Bridge. You can do that by holding down Crtl and starting Bridge. A reset window will appear, choose all 3 options.
One other point. If you are using Vista and an external drive there can be persissoning problems, but this does not seem like it should be one.

How can you save a customized Web Gallery in CS4 Bridge?

While trying out some the Web Galleries in CS4 Bridge, I have customized several using the customizing options. The info I type in is saved automatically but if I change from one gallery to another, all the customized choices for colors, etc., returns to the default version. Surely there is a way to save what I have input? Kind of ridiculous if you have to do this every time you want to make a gallery. Also, seems that some galleries have more customizing options while others leave those options off. Is this just a bad oversight by Adobe? In the HTML web option, anyway to have it list the file number/name below the image?

I was surprised that no one wanted to answer this question.
I waited long enough.
I still don't have this working properly

How do I find images in LR 2.4 (imported from CS4 Bridge) that have color labels already assigned In CS4 Bridge? I have set both Bridge and LR color labels text to match (eg Green for green, etc).

How do you find images in LR 2.4 that have been imported from CS4 Bridge and have been assigned a color label in Bridge? I have set both LR 2.4 and my CS4 Bridge to match the text for each color to be the same (eg. Green for green, etc), and the filter search in LR 2.4 shows that a label has been assigned, but I am unable to identify and locate the specific images in LR 2.4 that have had a color label assigned from CS4 Bridge. I have tried to search via attribute, metadata, text, etc...Is it necessary to re-assign color labels all over again, image by image, in LR 2.4, or is there a way to automatically have the color labels assigned in CS4 Bridge be assigned and searchable to the images after they have been imported into the LR 2.4 catalogue from the Bridge program?

JohnM.
I closed both programs and re-imported photos and re-tried the action of having LR read the XMP metadata from the CS4 files, and it seems to work now just fine...don't know why now and not before, but thanks much. Is there a way to have LR do this automatically upon import of images from CS4? I tried to do this with an import metadata preset, but no luck. It seems as if I can only do this once the images have already been imported into LR, and then to have to have LR read the metadata from the CS4 Bridge files. thanks gain.

How to get CS4 Bridge Photo Gallery into Dreamweaver?

I am a photographer who is new to Dreamweaver. I followed instructions and created a web gallery in Photoshop CS4 bridge. How do I get that into Dreamweaver???????????

Open DW.
Define your site.
Close DW
Put all the stuff that Bridge spews out into site folder - without changing the file structure.
Open DW
The tickiest part to this if you're new to it all, is defining your site. After that, if you don't have a basice grasp of HTML and CSS Dreamweaver might just turn out to be a bit trickier yet.
If you are not so sure about defining your site, Google it. There are tutorials for it everywhere!

Problem with CS4 Bridge and Camera Raw

I just bought a Canon 5D Mark III and can not open the images in Camera Raw through Bridge. I was told to upgrade the Camera Raw plug in. I have 5.7.0.213 already and that is what I could find to download. Can I upgrade the plug in into CS4 Bridge or how do I make this work.
Please, I need help with this soon.
Thanks, Tom

Isn't there any other option? I don't have a compter that can run CS6 and at the moment, upgrading compters and Photoshop isn't going to happen. All I need is to upgrade the Camera Raw Plug-in. There has to be some sort of work around for this.
Anyone have any ideas?

I shoot with a Canon 7D, have Windows 7 installed on my computer, Adobe CS4 (Bridge & Photoshop). I'm trying to open the CR2 files in Bridge to adjust them before I open them up in Photoshop, but it's giving me an error code saying it's the wrong file type. I downloaded the latest updates for Adobe Raw as well as the DNG converter, however I don't want to have to convert to DNG before opening in Bridge. Please let me know what I can do to open the CR2 files directly in Bridge CS4, thank you!

Make sure you have the right version...

Auto fill subject with an Email link in CS4 Bridge flash web gallery

Is there a way to autofill the subject line of the email link in the CS4 Bridge flab web galleries? I can do it if I use the html gallery, but I prefer the look of the flash galleries.
If I open the "group.xml" file I see code for me email link, exp.: <contactEmail>maillto:[email protected]</contactEmail>
I tried adding the "?subject=My Subject" like I would on an html file but that didn't work. I was hoping for some suggestions.
Thanks!

I want it to work on the click of a mouse: when I run or test the page the email comes up immediately. Here is what I have so far:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("mailto:mailto:[email protected]?subject=yoursubject&body=your message"));
/* Mouse Click Event
Clicking on the specified symbol instance executes a function in which you can add your own custom code.
Instructions:
1. Add your custom code on a new line after the line that says "// Start your custom code" below.
The code will execute when the symbol instance is clicked.
button_3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_MouseClickHandler_6);
function fl_MouseClickHandler_6(event:MouseEvent):void
     // Start your custom code
     // This example code displays the words "Mouse clicked" in the Output panel.
     trace("Mouse clicked");
     // End your custom code
So how do I get the email to open ONLY when the mouse clicks on the link??

Putting a CS4 Bridge gallery INTO an exsisting web page

Is it possible to put a web gallery created in CS4 Bridge into an exsisting web page created in Dreamweaver? I have a site with several pages and would like to have one of my pages display the gallery so that it all looks the same. I am sure it would entail editing the html and scripts which I am somewhat familure with. Just wondering if this is possible.

As you say it's probably a matter of getting the html generated by the gallery and insert it into your own pages. I'm not familiar with creating such a gallery, but the technotes do bring up some links that may be helpful (hopefully :-)

Help! Kuler in Illustrator CS4 - changes colours completely

Why is it that when I use the in-built Kuler extension in Illustrator CS4 the colour values are completely different when I "Add selected themes to swatches" to those on the Kuler website.
As an random example, take this theme: soothing by milolily   (http://kuler.adobe.com/#themeID/68960)
Here's what the colours are on the Kuler website and what they end up being in the Swatch palette in Illustrator:
R:52, G:97, B:107     --->     R:70, G:107, B:129
R:52, G:21, B:54     --->     R:82, G:48, B:55
R:123, G:137, B:156     --->     R:147, G:154, B:169
R:14, G:22, B:51     --->     R:26, G:32, B:63
R:160, G:189, B:140     --->     R:182, G:192, B:167
Check out the screenshot to see how huge the difference is visually.
I thought perhaps it was something to do with whether the Document Color Mode was set to RGB or CMYK but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
Any ideas anyone?? It's driving me insane!
Thanks

It's because theme is saved in CMYK. The RGB values displayed in kuler website are as per the Web color conversion whereas Illustrator utililises their own conversion. If you notice, in CMYK documents, values are displayed correctly.
Hope this resolves your doubt.

Colour issues LR3

I shoot ijn Camera RAW on a Canon 5D2 in LR3 and I'm having colour issues; skin tones are often purple/magenta tinted and very difficult to correct. I usually set the WB to Custom and shoot a grey card and set the picture style on the camera to Neutral (why does the WB affect RAW images anyway, I thought it only operated on the jpgs?)
On import, pics often look ok then resolve into higher contrast, garish colour versions which are less pleasing - have I set a preference incorrectly or am I missing something else?
All help gratefully received

When you first import, you see the small embedded JPEG the camera generates. This matches what you see on the LCD but is based on having the camera do the conversions which you're not doing. LR therefore has to build it's own high quality previews but more importantly, that is based on it's current default settings using it's own engine. So just forget what you initially see, you'd not get that unless you set the camera for JPEG.
The key is setting up a custom default you prefer. You could pick a general DNG profile, move any of the sliders around etc and the, if you option click in Develop, the Reset button toggles to allow you to create a new default. From there you can of course adjust to taste. You'll still have to white balance and so forth but you should try to get a decent 'starting point' from Import on. For WB, might want to set the camera for Auto WB. Note this setting has no effect on your raw data! It's only a suggestion you can accept or alter. With Auto WB, you'll probably find more images come in looking closer to what you want then say forcing Daylight (which would look butt ugly IF those images were shot under Tungsten). Auto IS NOT PERECT by a long shot but since the setting doesn't affect the data, might as well try for something that gets you in the ball park.
Using any card to WB (and you should use a white, not gray card) again is often just another starting point. You seasson to taste using Tint/Temp. And of course, if you shot a scene at sunset and did this, you'd kill the color expected at that time of day. Bottom line is, when you capture raw, the WB can be anything you wish, anything you think looks good. That would not be the case with a JPEG. If you set it, you're then kind of stuck with that rendering.
Lastly, creating one or two custom DNG camera profiles can work wonders. Check out the X-rite Passport product. You'll end up with a really great target for balancing as well.
