How do I get photoshop to open my images as sRGB instead of Adobe RGB?

My Camera is set to sRGB but when I open the raw files they are opening as adobe RGB. I take photos of clothing for online stores and when the Adobe RGB images are loaded onto their site it is turning all of the skin tones grey. I don't want to manually change every photo when I open them in photoshop.
Also, what is better for portraits and printing? sRGB or Adobe RGB?
Britt

This is set in ACR workflow options (the blue link below the main image window).
The camera setting is irrelevant, that only applies to in-camera processed jpegs. A raw file has no color space until it's opened into one in the raw converter.
Stay with sRGB until you know why you want a bigger color space. It has advantages, but also carries risks that can bite you if you don't know what you're doing.

  • How do I get Photoshop to open .RWL raw files, taken on a Leica DLUX5 for Mac 10.91.

    How do I get Photoshop CS4 to open .RWL raw files, taken on a Leica DLUX5. I have a Mac 10.91.operating system and have tried downloading and installing Camera_Raw_5_2.dmg, which has failed to do the trick.

    Thanks Pierre, I have converted the .rwl files to .dng, but CS4 says it does not recognise them. What now? Or is Mylenium correct?

    Hello, you should download the latest DNG converter: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/extend.displayTab2.html
    I suggest to contact Leica and ask them why they do not use the DNg format on that camera, as they do on their more costly models.

  • Open with External Editor Profile sRGB instead of Adobe RGB

    Hi,
    I know in the export presets I can adjust what profile aperture will use. But what about when I open with External Editor. I like doing this because I can open my image in PhotoShop make my adjustments then save it and have aperture manage my files. But when I do this it opens the file with Adobe RGB, my lab and I sometimes want Adobe RGB. How can I change this without exporting the file and reimporting the file. Thanks.

    Aperture uses a color space larger than AdobeRGB and sRGB. When an image is sent to Photoshop is converted to a 16bit AdobeRGB PSD file in order to get the largest color space to work with.
    sRGB would be necessary when exporting to the web and/or send it to a printer that requieres that color profile, and that's why you have it in the export presets.

  • How do I get Firefox to open in a new tab (instead of a new window) when I click on one of my buttons in my toolbar?

    When I click on one of my buttons in the toolbar, Firefox opens that button in a new window. I would like to be able to click on one of my buttons and Firefox open it in a new tab instead.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == When I attempt to click on a button

    Right click the FireFox button in your toolbar and look in the properties- middle tab...make sure that it only has "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" with no other link added to the end. I had a similar problem this morning and found a website had attached it's link to the end so it would always pop up first and would only open a new tab.
    Hope that fixed it.

  • How can I get photoshop elements to open my nef images?

    How can I get photoshop elements to open my nef images?

    The D3200 requires at least ACR 7.1, which isn't compatible with any version of PSE prior to PSE 11, so no, you can't do this directly in PSE 9.
    You could upgrade PSE, use the Nikon software to convert the files and then open the resulting images into PSE for further editing, or download the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your NEFs to DNG files that your version of PSE can understand.

    When I click on the 'help' key in the elements 12 program it wants to open it in Firefox2. Firefox doesn't work on my Macbook Pro Air. I use Safari. How do I get it to open?

    Hmm, that is very strange. I agree with MichelB that it's probably best just to get the PDF, but you can try going to your username>library>preferences and deleting:
    com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 settings
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 paths
    To see the library, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account. While you're in there it wouldn't be a bad idea to go to the Saved Application States folder and delete anything pertaining to PSE.
    Repair permissions and see if that does it.

    I had a year long CC membership that expired at the beginning of the October.
    After realizing that, I attempted to start a free trial of photoshop to work on a project. My Adobe account states that i'm on a trial, but my (Mac) dashboard CC app won't allow me to start the program. I have reinstalled both Creative Cloud and Photoshop CC but still get this message.

    How do I get photoshop elements 8 back after it disappeared from my computer.
    What do you mean by "disappeared"?
    What were you doing? Any error messages? Can you open the program? Editor? Organizer? Have you installed other programs recently? Do other programs work? Windows or Mac? Are you running an antivirus program?
    Tell us more.

  • I connected an external monitor to my MacBook Pro, but it doesn't open any programs. It Just sits there with a blank screen.  How do I get it to open programs and act like a monitor?

    I connected an external monitor to my MacBook Pro, but it doesn't open any programs. It Just sits there with a blank screen.  How do I get it to open programs and act like a monitor?

    Dear Jean:
    It sounds like you are trying to get your external monitor to act as the primary viewing screen. For example it would have your Doc, Icons, Etc. In order to make the external monitor the primary screen you have to:
    Open System Preferences.
    Choose the Displays Icon
    There will be several tabs to choose from pick Arrangement
    Drag the toolbar to desired display
    Let me know if this helps at all!
