Images not previewing properly in Bridge CS4

I just did a reformat & reinstall of my whole system. I opened Bridge to get back to work and none of my images will preview accurately in Bridge. They just show as horizontal and vertical pixelated representations of the image. I did not have a problem with Bridge until after the reinstall. Anyone have any ideas?
System details: Dell Dimension 8250 (I know, it's a dionsaur, but it works...for now), Windows XP Pro SP3, 1.5gb ram, Intel P4 3.06GHz HT
Thanks, Dana

Hi Dana,
Which settings are you considering and what are the performance issues?
You can optimize for certain workflows that will adjust processor intensive work, such as only generating large previews when displayed. If you're strictly talking about video card accelerated features, I think it's more a matter of On or Off as opposed to performance tuning. I just did a quick look and with video card acceleration enabled, in Full Screen Preview you can pan the image at magnifications much smoother.
regards,
steve

JPG images not displayed correctly in Bridge and Photoshop (Mac OS)

(Note: I have copied the content of this query from the Creative Suites forum where I originally opened it.)
I am using CS4 under OSX 10.4.11 on a PowerMac G5 Quad with 23" Apple cinema display. Images which have been captured as JPG are displayed fine by Preview, but when opened in Bridge, Camera Raw or Photoshop. the colours are all "washed out". The attached screen capture should give an idea of the difference, with the upper being Camera Raw (image settings) and the lower being Preview. My monitor has been calibrated and I'm using sRGB IEC61966-2.1 colour space in Camera Raw and Photoshop. The colours displayed by Preview are pretty close to "real life". I find it virtually impossible to adjust the colours in Photoshop to get back to anything similar.
After opening the image in Photoshop without adjustment, and Save As JPEG with embedded color profile, Preview displays the new image the same as Photoshop. Save As JPEG without embedded color profile, and Preview displays this copy just like the original. It seems that Photoshop is making different (incorrect) assumptions about what color space to use when there is no embedded color profile. Shouldn't it assume sRGB like virtually everything else (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRGB)? Or is its interpretation of sRGB incorrect? How can I fix this?

…If there is someone out there who has experience of obtaining decent colour management in CS4 on a Power PC, I would really like to know how you achieved it.
That would be yours truly, and I hasten to reply because I may have some insights that can help you too.
Just get it it out of the way, here's my setup:
Photoshop 11.0.2 ("CS4"); VersionCue disabled and uninstalled.—2.5 GHz Power Mac (PPC) G5-Quad; 16GB RAM; mutant, flashed 550MHz nVidia GeForce 7800GTX 1,700MHz 512MB VRAM; ATTO ExpressPCI UL5D LP SCSI card; Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.11 and Leopard 10.5.8 boot drives; Spotblight, Dashboard and Time Machine permanently disabled; dual 22" CRT monitors; USB wireless 'n' available but connected to the Internet via wired Ethernet; 1 FW flatbed scanner; 2 SCSI scanners (one tabloid-size transparency scanner and a film scanner); various internal & external HDs; FW Epson 2200 and Ethernet Samsung ML-2850ND printers; 2 X Back-UPS RS 1500 XS units.
I can unambiguously and in good faith represent to you that my color management, from capture to print, is as spot-on as anyone with any kind of setup can hope to achieve. Unequivocally and without qualifications.
Now, first things first: Forget about trying to synchronize color management across the point applications lumped together only by Adobe marketing fiat into a variety of meaningless "creative suites". Concentrate on Photoshop. Do not try to use Bridge to synchronize anything.
The "suites" are a totally artificial construct created by Adobe bean counters and marketing types. The point applications (i.e. the individual programs clumsily bundled together, e.g. Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc.) are developed independently by separate engineering teams that are not only not in the same building, but in different cities, different states of the American Union, and even in different countries. They have very little communication among them, if any, as evidenced by repeated posts in these forums by Photoshop engineering staff urging us, the end users, to let the other teams know in their own forums that a given problem exists and is actually affecting our work.
Enough said about the cause of the problem. The end result is that Color Management is at very, very different levels of progress and sophistication in each individual point application, with only Photoshop fully entitled to be considered state of the art.
Secondly, a disclaimer: I have been hanging on to my CRT monitors and take care of them as Jascha Heifetz used to take care of his Stradivarius. I don't know what I will do if I manage to outlive the usefulness and accuracy of my CRTs (unlikely at this point). I have despaired in futile efforts to bring the luminosity of any LCD monitor down to where I would feel comfortable calibrating and profiling it. I believe my monitors are the foundation of my color management efforts.
Especially if you have one of the extreme wide-gamut LCD or LED monitors, you'll face an uphill battle.
Be careful to avoid any version 4 icc profiles, whether canned or generated by your calibration software. Stick to version2 icc profiles. Ask the manufacturer of your calibration software/hardware if in doubt.
Here are some not-too-recent, but thoroughly representative screen shots of the calibration results I obtain with my monitors, which I calibrate and profile often and regularly (I validate the calibration at least several times per month).
In a nutshell, my color management practices and settings mirror those described by Bruce Fraser, Jeff Schewe, Andrew Rodney and Gary Ballard's site. I have learned from all of them.
My working color space is ProPhoto RGB. I choose to work with PSD and PSB files. As a long-time, rabid JPEG hater, I only rarely deal with JPEGs, using them sporadically to illustrate a point in this forum or elsewhere in the web. My main output consists of prints.
I only deal with tagged image files (files with an embedded color profile) and often recommend beating up with a baseball bat any moron that hands you an untagged file—figuratively of course, but I find the expression gets my point across unambiguously.
Following is a screen shot of some of my pertinent settings:
Note that I have never bought into the "suite" concept myself. I do have and routinely use Adobe Illustrator 10.x, InDesign 2.x and Acrobat Professional 8.x, but they are all older, independent versions of each point application, licensed at different times.
Be further advised, that the answer to many problems offered by Adobe engineers often is not to install VersionCue, or uninstall it, or at least disable it.
Also, as outlined at the beginning of this post, concentrate on Photoshop, not on synchronizing applications that can't really communicate with each other, despite the claims of Adobe marketing hacks to the contrary.
One big caveat, do not fall into this trap:

You either want to learn, or you don't. You either want to solve your problems, or you don't.
When you start arguing instead of studying, questioning advice instead of following it and detecting where you went wrong, you're on the right track to nowhere. That attitude will get you there fast. Remember you are the one with the problem, and only you can acquire the discipline to learn how to solve it.
Go ahead and ask me anything that is not clear, just don't argue with me please, and don't tell me why you think Fraser, Rodney, Ballard and I are wrong. You see, I am not experiencing any problem that needs fixing. I have an interest in helping you, but not in hearing about your speculations, theories or conclusions.
Good luck.

BC editor not previewing properly after saving

I raised this issue a few weeks (could even be more like months) ago with BC, haven't heard anything back.. apparently it was an "issue" they were working on.
When editing a page in BC, all looks fine (text is styled) however when you save/publish, the content is then displayed by the editor as default text. (no styling). This is not so bad for me, because I know what's going on and how it will look, but for clients, they are trying to fix the formatting etc, because it doesn't look right.. When you preview the actual file in browser, it looks fine. It's just the editor that is not previewing properly. If you go out of the page again and edit, it will display properly, but as soon as you save/publish, it defaults again.
BC, any update?

Hey tyj00123,
I believe you may be referring to support ticket #35920 in which my colleague confirmed this was a bug and recorded this issue in our bug tracking software. For your reference, the bug ID was 3569891.
I can see there has been progress made on this bug and it looks like a fix may be rolled out with our next release. However this is not something I can confirm just yet. I also cannot confirm when the next release is due to be rolled out at this time. Please keep an eye on our blog closely for any announcements: http://www.businesscatalyst.com/_blog/BC_Blog/
Cheers.

Images not displayed properly

[Migrated from the Syclo Resource Center]
prashanthi_vangala   01/03/2012 06:44,
Hi,I am working on Agentry 5.4.0I have a list screen where for one of the columns I have a rule to display images ( I use checked and unchecked images ). Earlier the images were getting displayed properly on the ATE but it is not working now and I did not make any changes to the image properties then.But after this, I tried couple of things with the image properties to make it work, like when I do not use any mask colour the image does not get displayed but when i use any maks colour the image gets displayed but its completely blacked out ( and thus for checked image, cannot see the check mark and its completely blacked out ).I face same issue with the login image as well. I added a new Image ( Logo ) to my App for the login Screen, but even this image does not appear on the login screen.
I also tried deleting the Dev folder and re-publishing, but even this does not work.

Try deleting the Application directory under your development server where the images reside and publish again.
Completely clear your ATE and transmit again from scratch.
Also, what mask color are you using?
Try using a green hugh and not black or white for the mask.

prashanthi_vangala   01/03/2012 12:38
Hi Jason,Thank you for the reply.I already tried all the things you have mentioned, but the same issue exits still.
Prashanthi
Jason Latko   01/03/2012 12:40
Is it just the ATE, or do you have the same problems using the WIn32 or PPC clients?
Jason Latko - Senior Product Developer at Syclo
prashanthi_vangala   01/04/2012 06:21
Hi Jason,Behaviour in ATE:I have changed the image now and tested with the new image . Now, its behaving strangely:When I do a sync after publishing or a reset of ATE; I see the new image properly displayed on the screen but when I leave the screen and come back to the same screen again, the new image is getting replaced by the old image ( atleast the old image is not displayed properly, it appears like a black square box..and because of the same issue I had with this image I switched to the new image ). Behaviour in Win32 Client:When I tested with the client, I see the new image properly for the first time and when i leave the screen and come back the image disappears..This is the behaviour in client.
Please suggest.
-Prashanthi
Jason Latko   01/09/2012 11:35
Prashanthi,What did you use to create these images?
They are simple bitmaps I assume?
Try creating some very simple images using Microsoft Paint, then set a mask of green in Agentry.
Your problem sounds familiar, but I can't find a matching bug in our database.
Maybe someone else has experienced this?
You could also try upgrading to a newer version of Agentry to see if the problem goes away.
We are currently on version 6.0.4.Jason Latko - Senior Product Developer at Syclo
prashanthi_vangala   01/11/2012 10:02
Hi Jason,
Thank you for the reply.
But strangely, from past few days I see that the image is working fine again.
But kept this topic open because it was wierd, that the image is working correctly again without making any major change. What I did was to just write the rule again which calls the image ( though i did this before and did not work then but worked now ) and to observe the image behaviour for few days.But it seems like it is fine now.
Thanks and Regards,Prashanthi

We am using "jv:imageButton" tag for displaying the image and below is the tag code,

The images are present in the following path,
..\public_html\oracle\communications\inventory\ui\images\zoomrecth.png
I am not thinking this is a Platform Beta 3 uptake issue. And I am suspecting an issue with integration of ilog with ADF. Any help in this regard would be helpful.

Illustrator files aren't previewing properly in Bridge CS3

I have used bridge for ages and have never had this problem before. However I recently had to reinstall CS3 design suite and now illustrator files wont preview properly - they appear really small and instead of previewing just the art board (as it used to), it previews everything on the document including all the extraneous information I have on my specs layer that I don't need to see. I have looked through all the preference panels and can't find any way of changing this. Help would be gratefully appreciated!

Check your Acrobat Page Display settings in Preferences. They may be set different than the Windows computer. Look at the settings in the "Rendering" area.

Images not displayed properly.Any advice on that?

Hi,
I found the following code inside the forum and i'm trying to understand it.
It appears to be a problem though. In particular the images(chess-pieces) are not displayed properly. The background of the gif images should be transparent but is not. Any advice?
Thanks
Here is the code:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class ChessBoard10 {
static final int PAWN = 0;
JFrame frame;
JComponent[][] checker;
public ChessBoard10() {
frame = new JFrame("CHESS GAME");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
Container con = frame.getContentPane();
con.setLayout(new GridLayout(8, 8));
checker = new JComponent[8][8];
for (int row = 0; row < 8; ++row) {
for (int col = 0; col < 8; ++col) {
JComponent p = new JPanel();
p.setBackground(setColor(row, col));
checker[row][col] = p;
con.add(p);
frame.setSize(500, 550);
frame.setVisible(true);
Color setColor(int y, int x) {
Color c;
if (y % 2 == 1) {
if (x % 2 == 1) {
c = Color.white;
} else {
c = Color.black;
} else {
if (x % 2 == 1) {
c = Color.black;
} else {
c = Color.white;
return c;
public void setPiece(Piece pc, int row, int col) {
JComponent p = checker[row - 1][col - 1];
//one base -> zero base conversion
if (p.getComponentCount() > 0) {
p.remove(0);
p.add(pc);
p.revalidate();
/*test*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
int Bpawn = 0,
Bbishop = 1,
Bking = 2,
Bknight = 3,
Bqueen = 4,
Brock = 5,

Wbishop = 7,
Wking = 8,
Wknight = 9,
Wqueen = 10,
Wrock = 11;
ChessBoard10 cb = new ChessBoard10();
for (int i = 1; i < 9; i++) {
cb.setPiece(new Piece(Bpawn), 2, i);
cb.setPiece(new Piece(Wpawn), 7, i);
cb.setPiece(new Piece(Bking), 1, 4);

cb.setPiece(new Piece(Wbishop), 8, 6);
cb.setPiece(new Piece(Wknight), 8, 2);
cb.setPiece(new Piece(Wknight), 8, 7);
cb.setPiece(new Piece(Wrock), 8, 1);
cb.setPiece(new Piece(Wrock), 8, 8);
class Piece extends JPanel {

"Wking.gif",
"Wknight.gif",
"Wqueen.gif",
"Wrock.gif" };
public Piece(int type) {
add(new JLabel(new ImageIcon(imgfile[type])));
}

Well, without actually testing the code which I most unfortunately can't do since my real computer is chrashed at the moment, try checking the
boolean Component.isOpaque();otherwise try using .png's instead altough it shouldn't matter.
This is just some general advices =(

Edited hyperlinked shape images not hyperlinking properly when published

At my website:
www.trianglepolysteel.com
I've tried to add and edit hyperlinked shape images at the top of the page, namely "The PolySteel Systems" and "FAQs". No matter what I do--bring to front, recreate a brand new image, copy and paste one I know works--the published version does not hyperlink properly. I unselect "make all hyperlinks inactive" in the hyperlink inspector pane, rollover my mouse to ensure that all buttons take me to the proper place, then click them to prove it. Works in iWeb, not on the published page.
Does anyone know how iWeb creates the code? When I save changes I've made, does it rewrite code for the entire page, or does it plug in edits at the end of the existing code? When I go in to view source in safari, it looks like it put the two edited/added images in a different location.
Help! Visitors/potential customers are missing a valuable link on my site.
Bradley

OT,
Yes, each is its own image, as making one text box and hyperlinking each word/phrase results in the unchangeable (arrrgh!) grey underlined text that changes to red on rollover.
I've already been experimenting with exactly what you mentioned. I just tried shrinking all the image boxes, without encroaching on the text, so they would clearly not overlap. I'm publishing to me.com for these experiments so I don't have to keep publishing the entire site to a folder, then ftping to my server. Here's the page I just experimented with:
http://web.mac.com/bradleyoder/iWeb/Triangle%20PolySteel/WhatIsPolySteel.html
In iWeb, all links are good to go, no overlapping, etc. Curiously enough, on this page, there are even more dysfunctional hyperlinks with those image boxes.
Any further thoughts?

Adjustments made in LR 2.1 are not Showing up in Bridge CS4

I thought that I had read somewhere that LR2 and Bridge CS4 were aware of each other and photo settings made using one application would be seen by the other. I can tell you that CS4 is not reading ratings, color labels, and ACR settings made using LR. I guess that I was wrong about any integration between Bridge CS4 and LR2?

Paul and Greg, thank you for your insightful posts! This makes sense.
Jeff, I think that you have already shown your true colors, But if you want to make me feel 2 inches tall, go ahead and try. I reserve embarrassment from those people who I hold some respect for. You are not deserving of any respect because you obviously knew what Paul and Greg shared without trying to be sarcastic and yet withheld it just to teach me a lesson about how superior that you think that you are. Then you try to hide behind just being humorous. I don't buy it. If you had told me what Paul did, then made the comment about "reading minds", I would agree that this was innocent humor. But you withheld the useful information and thus your apparent attempt at humor (after the fact) came access as sarcasm, given the lack of help it provided. I can only conclude that you are the one who is flailing about and I have no need for this kind of help.

Image not rendering properly on timeline

I'm working on an animatic using still images. Occassionally, I need to scale in or move the image a bit. This means FCPX has to render the image, which it usually does, but I am finding that in some cases, the image appears blurry when played at normal running speed, but when I pause, it's nice and clear. Why is the image not rendering so that it plays clear when running? The orange bar is not displayed to suggest it needs to render still.

Uh, yup, that sure solved it. Thanks Tom.

Master slide images not loading properly when previewing or when published

I have created a master slide (including image) to be the background for my piece. The image looks fine when I am in Captivate but when I preview the project the image does not display fully and only shows up bright bright white. I tried publishing to see if this would make a difference but nothing. I am using a jpg image.
Has anyone encountered this problem or does anyone have any ideas how I can make the image display?
Thanks
Jodie

What is the slide quality? Default setting is Low (8-bit), depending on your JPEG-image quality this may be too low. Try to change to High or Optimized and see if this is better.

D810 images not displaying properly in preview app

So when I open an image like something I took from Photo Booth from Finder in Preview app, it loads fine. However, when I open a high res image JPG from my Nikon D810, the image loads initially, then quickly blanks out to all white. If I use the magnifier tool, it does show me magnified portions of the image, but the whole image won't show. Is there a maximum size limitation with preview app?
BTW, I don't think this repro'd before I updated to 10.10.3 (was 10.10.2). Is this an issue with Apple decommissioning iPhoto?

Raw images do not show up in Bridge CS4 for PSE 8 for Mac

I just downloaded PSE 8 for Mac and my raw files no longer show as thumbnails. I can open them in Elements, but the image is blank in Bridge. These same images were fine in CS3 (PSE 6 for Mac). I have downloaded and installed the new Camera Raw 5.6 plug-in but that didn't work. Any suggestions? Thank you!

You have to update bridge separately from PSE, and bridge ships with a pretty old version of ACR. Just go to Help>Updates in bridge and it will update itself for you.
