File appearence not the same in PS CS4, LR2 and Camera RAW

I've just noticed that files as displayed in Lightroom 2 or in Camera RAW, when opened in Photoshop CS4 have a different appearence. In Photoshop the file appears much flatter and with considerably less saturation and dynamic range. When you compare the files beside each other in RAW and in Lightroom, they look the same. I have tried exporting the files to Photoshop from Lightroom using the "open with Lightroom Edits" and Edit a Copy and Edit the original, but the results are the same. After editing a photo in Photoshop and saving it back into Lightroom, the photo appears very saturated in the Lightroom or in Camera RAW. I don't know how long this has been this way, but now that I hace noticed it, it is driving me nuts.
Thanks for your help
Steve

Christopher thank you so much for responding and you have pinpointed the problem. The problem was the color settings. Color settings were set to sRGB and when I changed it to ProPhoto RGB Photoshop rendered file as it appears in the files in Lightroom and Camera RAW. I shoot in ProPhotoRGB and that seems to be why the images looked so flat when imported using sRGB.
Thanks for taking the time to help
Steve

I upgraded my macbookpro hard drive to 1 TB then migrated my files from time machine. I'm now locked out of the computer because the password is not the same as my usual one and one that was years old and not retreivable. How do I work around this?

Whether or not you are able to recover the data off the drive yourself will depend on if the drive suffered any impact damage in the crash. You can buy USB SATA or IDE adapters (Intel and almost all G5 use SATA) that will let you connect your hard drive to a computer (like a flash drive) to see if you can recover the data. If the drive has suffered physical damage if may not mount.
If you know someone who has one of these adapters you could try using theirs, otherwise you could buy one but you take the risk of the data on the drive being non recoverable. Regardless, both are much cheaper than $1699!
(Alternatively, if you know of someone with a Mac Pro or PowerMac G5 they may be able to install the drive in their machine and try to boot from or mount it and copy the data off.)

[CDATA] not the same way read in DOM and SAX (DOM: O.K., SAX: not O.K.)

I wrote a test application that reads a XML file. First method reads it via DOM in a Document object, second that reads it via SAX in a string. The output is almost the same but the character data is different:
while the dom outout is as expected:
<hap>EUSF</hap>
<name><![CDATA[WADDELL&REED ADV BOND CL Y]]></name>
the SAX output is different:
<hap>EUSF</hap>
<name>WADDELL&REED ADV BOND CL Y</name>
as both elements have text data, only the second is enclosed in a <![CDATA]> value. The DOM output is the same as when displayed the XML in internet explorer, so i guess this is the correct result. but my SAX reader does not display the <![CDATA]> value ...
to get the sax output i subclassed DefaultHandler and overwrote the methods like described in the Web Service Tutorial "Echoing an XML File with the SAX Parser" (http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/ea2/tutorial/doc/JAXPSAX3.html#64190):
* Overwrites super.
* Receive notification of character data inside an element.
public void characters(char buf[], int offset, int len) {
String s = new String(buf, offset, len);
if (!s.trim().equals("")) { //suppress output of characters that are all whitespace
write(s);
}//characters()
the characters() method has the content of an element, but it has not the information if a CDATA is enclosing the data or not(?). How can this be done?

There's a thing called a LexicalHandler (org.xml.sax.ext.LexicalHandler) that has startCDATA and endCDATA methods. The API documentation suggests that you could create your own LexicalHandler and use it somehow, but it doesn't give you a nicely packaged example. I don't have an example of it either, sorry.
However despite what you say, those two outputs are not different. In XML terms they are identical and parsers will treat them identically.

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?

Wiped my computer, backed it up, and some files are not the same

I was having some touchpad related issues so I took my macbook pro (late 2011) to the apple store. There they initiated a wipe after having told them that I used a portable external hard-drive to back up my documents. I used migration assistant and everything seems to have backed up fine except for this one document that has all my class notes. The last note I have recorded is from the 5th of March when I used that document up until March 19. Is there any way I can recover the file from that date? Any advice/help would be much appreciated.

Hi Ken
Just to be clear what you are saying is put a test page live so it can be viewed online?
You got it ! For the future, that's the best way we can see all your code and files.
Since ther are no other links to the test page, the public won't stumble on it.
Delete it once you have your answers.

Data Guard: standby archivelog files not the same as the primary archivelog

From reading the Data Guard doco, one gets the impression that that the standby redo archive logs are just a mirror of those from the primary, that the shipped and applied archived redo logs from the primary are what end up in the standby archive directories.
However I have noted that the files are not the same (md5sum is different), which is concerning as using Oracle's archive log naming recommendation, the files have identical names.
Does this mean that the Standbys redologs can not be used as a source of redo logs if one had to restore using a backup of the primary database?
i.e. Can you recover using an RMAN backup of the primary, and redo logs from the standby?

Hi MSK, I agree, that's exactly what I thought. I'm confused though why the logs do not match. Perhaps it is just metadata in the log that has changed, not redo data.
Anyone have any knowledge on why the archivelogs are different on the standby to those on the primary?

When I try to buy ibooks from my ipad, the virtual keyboard is not the same as my computer, and so as my password consists of numbers, letters and symbols my ipad keeps showing that my password is incorrect! Is there any way around this problem please?

Are you using the virtual keyboard to input your password and you cannot see/find the characters you need on that keyboard?
Or are you trying to use a bluetooth keyboard and pressing the printed key does not produce the right character?

Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative clouds not the same?

Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative clouds not the same?
Idea was to store date in one place. I have subscribed to photographer option

Do you mean you are trying to sync files from Creative Cloud to mobile and it doesn't work? I don't know much about Lightroom. It's better to ask your question at Photoshop Lightroom.

Why files in Lightroom mobile and files in the creative cloud not the same? idea- one place(stored date) for all application ??????

Lightroom Mobile is not a cloud storage service. You shouldn't treat it as a way of backing up your files. You are merely storing Smart Previews of your files in the cloud space, high-quality JPEGs of your files regardless of their original format on your desktop. The point is that they are there so you can continue editing them in a Lightroom-like environment even while away from your desktop/laptop computer. The files in Lightroom Mobile can only be used in Lightroom Mobile.
This is very different from what is offered by the Creative Cloud storage, which can be used to synchronize your files between any device (that can support the individual files).
The vast difference in how each service works and its intended use is why they are separate.

PSD file on mac, opened on PC not the same colors??

my PSD file has a specific color i need, PMS 300 in my logo. So on my MAC i make it. When someone at my work opens the PSD file on a PC, it is not the same color. why arent the colors the same?? even when i save it as a PDF, if someone on a pc opens it at my work. its a different shade of blue.

Windows based PCs are sRGB by default. Many apps are not even color managed and can't display images tagged with other profiles correctly.
Photoshop and Bridge are color managed, but what are they using to view your files?
Add to that users who are not educated in color management and you have a problem.
Those who target their files for commercial printing use Adobe RGB, a much larger gamut that will look desaturated in an sRGB environment like Windows.
So either they get a viewer that can read these tags, or you will have to send them a copy of the file converted to sRGB.
This can be found in Photoshop's Edit menu.
Edit > Convert to Profile... if your image is already tagged as Adobe rgb
You can still keep your Adobe RGB tagged files for print, but you have to explain that to your Windows users.
It's not the best answer, but might hold until all PCs are on the same page and your co-workers educated.

My SWF is not the same size as my Flash document size

My SWF is not the same size as my Flash document size. How can I get it to be the same.
Thanks

I spent a little time trying to figure out if there's some setting anywhere that might explain this, but couldn't find anything. That doesn't mean there isn't any--I just don't know of any.
I'm wondering if you could take a screen shot that shows the stage size versus the swf size when it plays? It will help to make sure the problem is what I think you have it explained it to be.
Does this happen in all files you create or is it occuring just in one particular file? What version of Flash are you using? If you can make your file available maybe someone can see if the problem remains when they open it--possibly even track down some cause. I am unable to open CS4 files (don't have it), but if it's an earlier version I can take a look.
If you are using CS4, have you updated it to the latest release (10.0.2, I believe)? There were numerous bugs when CS4 was released, though I don't know if this would be one of them.

My UI is not the same as that shown in the Mozilla website..why? (i.e home button still on left hand side of screen and no bookmark icon)

I was using FF 4 Beta and applied the update ... I noticed that my final version was not the same as shown on the website so I removed the beta setup file and took off all versions of FF cleaned adn restarted my laptop and then reinstalled a clean version of FF 4.. however my final* version is not the same as shown still. Is this right or do I need to do something else :(
Examples of what is different is the home icon remains on the left hand side of the screen next to the back button and I do not have the bookmarks icons which from the website should appear on the right hand side next to the new location of the home button.

Look you can customize it very easily.
Press Alt+V to have the View Menu -> Select Toolbars -> Click on Customize -> Now drag the Home Button to anywhere on the toolbar and pick the Bookmarks Button from the available icons and put it in the toolbar.
