Is there a difference in levels between CS4 and CS5

I've just upgraded from CS4 to CS5 and I'm finding I seem to have more 'space' in levels when processing raw files to TIFF - especially at the shadow end.
Heavily polarised landscapes with lots of sky sometimes show saturation clipping (a spike at the left hand edge of the histogram) in the shadow end of the blue channel in CS4.  In CS5 / ACR 6.2 this seems to have gone away and there is more headroom at the extremes of the histogram generally.  This means I can process the difficult images and get a TIFF with a clean histogram.
Problem is when I open the finished TIFF file in an earlier version of Photoshop the clipping is back.  This is a problem as image libraries often reject images which show clipping.
Anyone know whats going on?  Is there a change in the way CS5 maps the histogram?  (All images are saved with an Adobe (1998) colour space)

Thanks for the answer Chris - I've checked all the default settings & I think everything is as it should be - but I'm still seeing a difference.  Here's an example of a raw file (16bit Tiff), processed in CS5 and viewed in CS5
and here is the same file this time viewed in CS4:
I'm pretty sure all the color management settings are the same - any ideas?

  • Is there any difference in quality between mp4 and m4v?

    Is there any difference in quality between mp4 and m4v? I am figuring out how best to save old VCR files. Is the 264 category the best?

    So, what would that software be? Anything that I mentioned, e.g., iMovie? Any Video Converter?
    I'm a Mac user so I want files that play "natively" in QT X, QT 7, QL, iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad, and/or TV players. This means I want the H.264/AAC compressed data in MOV, MP4, or M4V file containers. I can use QT 7 Pro, MPEG Streamclip, and /or QT X to move MPEG-4/AAC compressed data to MOV file containers, MPEG Streamclip to movie M4V and MOV MPEG-4/AAC data to MP4 file containers, and Subler to move MP4 or MOV MPEG-4 AVC/AAC/AC3/Chapter data to M4V file containers. This is strictly a simple "copy" operation and no recompression of data is involved. (I.e., the quality is not changed.)
    iMovie is a video editor and it forces an export conversion of your project once completed which can degrade quality. Have never used the Any Video Converter so I don't know if it has an audio and/or video "passthrough" feature for data already in a compatible compression formats. If it doesn't then any conversion it makes has the potential to degrade video content.
    As to AVI, this is a legacy file container abandoned by Microsoft a dozen years ago in favor of their modernized WMV compression format/file type products. Compared to MKV, AVI is an outmoded/out-of-date container which I don't recommend you use unless you are a glutton for punishment. However, if you must use it, then you might try the AvidMux app. It can "copy" compatible content to a number of file container types—including AVI and MKV. Just don't blame me if its use creates more problems than it solves on current Mac systems.

  • Installation/uninstall issues between CS4 and CS5

    I had CS4 installed. I purchased CS5 (downloaded it) installed that.  When I got the disks via mail, I tried to install that version (disk version).  I started having issues as to which program would open a .prproj file.  Often the CS4 version of Premiere Pro opened.  Not what I wanted.  I eventually uninstalled CS5 entirely and then reinstalled.  Then things were working fine.  However, I then tried to uninstall CS4.  (I have seen from numerous posts/comments to leave both on -- which I really don't know why.  Doesn't make sense to keep both versions).  I prefer not to have an extra 4GB of space used for programs I am no longer using.  However, in doing so, the uninstall didn't appear to do a perfect job.  And now I can't double-click a .prproj file.  This icon is also blank white.  I went into Set Associations and I can't assign .prproj to Premiere CS5.  In looking at the Open With window, I notice that some of the icons for other Adobe programs are all splewy (Adobe Encore is using the CS4 icon, Adobe Illustrator is using the PDF icon, Flash Catalyst is using the Air icon, etc.)
    I could: a) uninstall everything, including Adobe Acrobat Pro (which I had purchased and installed prior to CS4 or CS5) and then reinstall everything -- sheesh that would take a while; or b) I could ask my friends here to explain and guide me!

    Hi Stix, Thanks.
    I am not so positive that there is no difference between the download version vs the media version specifcially because in downloading the updates, the site demands you choose your update depending on how your software was installed.  I figured that the download would be smaller.  Perhaps you are right. And maybe it is the same, in either case, when I get a stack of disks, I tend to think there is more on the disk and the download version is merely the core applications.
    Anyway, I had to uninstall everything CS4 and CS5 and then reinstall CS5.  Oddly, this didn't automatically fix my problem.  However, at least I was able to choose Premiere CS5 to open .prproj files and check off the box to use it as the default. (I wasn't able to before).  So now it works!

  • Compatability between CS4 and CS5 Flash?

    Hi
    I'm working off  CS4 and using mainly Premiere Pro. I'm also using Photoshop, Flash,  Soundbooth from CS4 and using files from those applications in Premiere  Pro. All good so far. My projects have a few layers but really nothing  too complicated.
    I work with someone who will eventually  create the flash elements of our projects. To do this the company  ordered further licenses for CS4 but we received CS5 instead.
    If she loads CS5 onto her computer and creates Flash files (CS5) that I then use in Premiere Pro CS4, will it be compatible?
    Also, if I want to then adjust that CS5 flash file in Flash CS4, will that work, or will I encounter problems?
    Should we go with the CS5 or try and get another copy of CS4 for the new computer? (My computer needs to stay CS4)
    Thanks

    So as far as Premiere is concerned you are importing Quicktime MOV files from Flash?
    When you import MOV files into Flash they are frame-by-frame animations taking up frames on the timeline, either on the main stage or in a Movie Clip.  There is a limit in Flash in general to the number of frames you can have in a single animation, something like 16000 or 12000 frames.  Depending on your fps this could be a relatively short or longer amount of time that the animation will play.  I don't think there will be as many issues importing and exporting between Premiere Pro and Flash as there are with Flash CS4 and CS5 itself.  TLF is a framework for laying out text (Text Layout Framework) which allows you some functionality of InDesign-style text-box layouts such as multi-columns, tracking and kerning, etc.

  • Copy/Paste difference between CS4 and CS5

    Please help... I am losing my mind...
    I just upgraded from CS4 to CS5 the other day and am at my wits end.
    I use Adobe Illustrator for live trace and paste the paths into an embroidery software for digitizing.
    In Adobe Illustrator CS4, I could copy (ctrl+c) paths in illustrator and then open the embroidery software and paste (ctrl+v) the paths.
    Now that I've upgraded to Illustrator CS5, I can no longer copy/paste paths... why?  The paths simply wont paste into the embroidery software any longer.
    I feel like there is something very fundamental that I am missing.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi Larry,
      Thank you for your suggestion.  If you can't tell already, I am far from an Illustrator power user...
    I verified my clipboard settings looked as the attached image and it still did not seem to work.  I also tried every combination of options and none of them worked either.
    Work Flow: I will highlight the paths and copy them, then in the embroidery software when I hit paste, the mouse cursor turns into the processing icon for a split second like it's trying to paste, but nothing ever shows up in the embroidery software.
    I reinstalled Illustrator CS4 alongside CS5 this morning, and tried the same copy/paste process with CS4 (from an illustrator file created in CS5)... works like a charm.  I realize that downgrading to CS4 is not the solution.  However, not being able to correctly operate the copy/paste commands is toying with my ego...

  • Is there a difference in Airport between MacBook and PowerBook?

    My husband has MacBook Pro and I have PowerBook G4. He is able to obtain wireless at times when I am not. Is there a difference in the Airport cards? I am considering purchasing the MacBook and wonder if this better technology, etc.?

    We have the same problem at our house. My Powerbook connects with no problem while my wife's MacBook Pro loses the connection periodically. I've heard rumors that the latest Airport update may have affected the Macbooks but not the Powerbooks...?
    I'm hoping someone fixes this, because my wife works from home and the unstable connection is frustrating!

  • Does anyone know what triggers the switch between text and iMessage in the middle of a conversation? Are there any differences in billing between text and iMessage?

    In the middle of a text conversation between another iOS 5.0 iPhone user and myself, the conversation elements switched back and forth several times between Text and iMessage. The phone actually tracked it and put little lines indicating the switch, and my comments changed from green to blue and back again. I can't think of anything I changed in the middle of the conversation. I was outside WiFi range, using the Cell network at the time. Now I tried it again, while i'm on WiFI and the messages are Text (green) again.

    1. Windows 8.1 Enterprise w Update is the best. It allows you for sideloading in corporate environment without additional tools and licenses.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/jj874388.aspx
    2. N series is for EU (without IE).
    3. Profesional is fine, but you will need some tools to achieve the same functionality that you have in "pack" Enterprise.
    4. VL is volume license, a type of license for multiple computers (to say it simply)
    5. MSDN forum is better alternative for problems like this.
    6. Attached to MSDN are licenses or at least references to web resources. Read license agreements carefully and let your installation and use follow the license.

    If you are dealing with Exported files, there should not be any issues.
    If you are dealing with the Project files (PRPROJ), then there is a one-way street, that usually works, but that will depend on what is used in the CS4 Projects. One can usually Open, or Import a CS4 Project into CS5, but it will be converted, so that converted Project will never likely open in CS4. Also, CS5 created Projects will never likely Open in CS4.
    With Exported AV files, there should not be an issue.
    Good luck,

  • Is there a difference in Photomerge between CC and Elements?

    Hello! I have a quick product question - I have been using Lightroom for some time now and am very comfortable with the workflow I have going. I shoot quite a bit of film, and recently have been "scanning" my 6x6 negatives with my DSLR and a macro lens. I downloaded a trial of Elements 13 to see how the Photomerge option works. Long story short, it works great. Now I am curious if there are any differences between the Photomerge option in Photoshop CC vs Photoshop Elements 13. The only difference I can come up with is that the CC Photomerge has an option directly from Lightroom and Elements does not (merge to Panorama still greyed out with Elements installed). Thank you for your great products, and I truly appreciate your insight.

    Most people either use one app or the other, and have very limited knowledge of the one they don't use.  But from what I can find from a quick look round the web, they seem to be the same.

  • Is there a difference in sharpneing between PS12 and CS6

    I am currently running the low cost trial version of CS6.  Prior to this I was using PS11.
    I am trying CS6 because a chap on a forum I use said he noticed his sharpening improved greatly when using CS6.
    I also, have noticed a big improvement since using CS6, my shots, predominately football (soccer) are without doubt much sharper.
    I don't use the bells and whistles on CS6 and have considered going back to PS11 and upgrading to PS12 if the sharpening has been improved.
    I guess it all revolves around how much CS6 will be when my trial ends in December.  Currently it costs me £8.78 per month (approx $15).  I would be happy to go to about £20 ($33) per month but no way £50. ($83)
    So, please has the sharpening imoproved on PS12 compared to PS11?
    Many thanks
    Simon.

    I think you are right!!! Just noticed, I came here via a link.  I'll repost and hopelfully the mods will delete this.
    Thanks.

    hi Kyle,
    thanks for the effort, but it wasn't the thing i asked for ...
    what i would like to find out is:
    if CO area settings are set w/o profit centers, why the system still demands profit center assignment with cost center master data (ie.)
    well, i can always turn off the message, but this isn't the solution i want to use ...
    i will rather open one PC (along with dummy, of course) even though those are not used for the customer ... although, this will not solve statistical posting to cc with cost element category 11 ...

  • Color mismatch between CS4 and Canon PIXMA PRO6500

    Hi there! I am trying to research if anyone else is having a problem with color mismatch between CS4 and their printer. Last night I printed a .tiff image out of CS4 to my Canon PRO6500 printer and the sky came out purple / pink! It was supposed to be a stormy grey color. I have the color management turned off on the printer settings. I have CS4 manages color turned on and the correct ICC profile selected for the paper I am using. When I do a soft proof in CS4 the image looks fine, but when I print I get something completely different, mostly with the sky (purple / pink) color! Just for the heck of it I did a Print Preview under my Page Setup and guess what, the sky actually shows purple / pink! So I have no idea what's going on. I checked all my setting, ink cartridges, tried different paper with the appropriate ICC profile and no dice. Still have a goofy looking sky! I thought PROOFING the image is supposed to show you how the printed image is going to look? apparently it doesn't because it's not. The Print Preview has an accurate representation of the print but I have no idea where the pink / purple sky is coming from. They are supposed to be stormy clouds as I said. I appreciate any help anyone can provide .
    Sabciu

    I have the color management turned off on the printer settings.
    But do you have a measured color profile based on a sample print? Most likely not, so this is not doing anything in your favor. The current profile may present the defaults for a given printer, but not the actual density based on your other printer settings. So by all means, unless you can be sure to obey a full calibration throughout, turn on the printer CM. Also, since it is a Pro model, you may actualyl have to use the dedicated RIP software that was bundled with it to get correct results, not the default windows print engine.

    Check this out
    Hi I'm providing the ECC 6.0 functionality if you knows the
    4.7EE the difference is as follows:
    ECC 6.0 New GL Functionality
    1.Activate the New General Ledger Accounting by a single
    click on the clock icon
    2.You will reach to change view "activation of New GL A/cg"
    detail screen and tick the checkbox and save.
    3. After activation of New General Ledger Accounting, you
    exit the IMG screen when you re-enter, you find that a new
    node is added Financial Accounting (New)
    4.After activation of New General Ledger Accounting; a new
    sub node appears in the IMG structure.
    This sub node is Define Segment
    The menu path is:
    SAP Customizing IMG ---> Enterprise Structure -
    >
    Definition --> Financial Accounting --> Define Segment
    In this IMG activity, you define your segments.
    If you then define your profit centers, you can enter an
    associated segment in the master record of a profit center.
    The segment is then derived from the assigned profit center
    during posting.
    5. Activation has created a new field in Profit Center

    6.Leading and Non- Leading Ledgers
    In General Ledger Accounting, you can use several Ledgers
    in parallel. This allows you to produce financial
    statements according to different accounting principles. A
    ledger uses several dimensions from the totals table it is
    based upon. When defining Ledgers, one must be defined as
    the Leading Ledger. The Leading Ledger is based on the same
    accounting principles as that of the consolidated financial
    statements. It is integrated with all subsidiary ledgers
    and is updated in all company codes. This means that it is
    automatically assigned to all company codes. In each
    company code, the Leading Ledger receives exactly the same
    settings that apply to that company code : the currencies,
    the fiscal year variant and posting period variant .
    You must designate one of your ledgers as the Leading
    Ledger. It is not possible to designate more than one
    ledger as the leading ledger.
    The menu path is:
    SAP Customizing IMG -
    > Financial Accounting (New) -
    >
    Financial Accounting Basic Settings (New) -
    > Ledgers ---
    -> Ledger -
    > Define Ledgers for General Ledger
    Accounting
    Clicking on the checkbox identifies one of your ledgers as
    the Leading Ledger.
    7. Activation of Non Leading Ledgers
    Non Leading Ledgers are parallel ledgers to the Leading
    Ledger . They can be based on local accounting principle,
    for example. You have to activate a non- Leading Ledger for
    individual company codes. Non- Leading Ledgers can have
    different fiscal year variants and posting period variants
    per company code to the Leading Ledger of this company
    code.
    The menu path is :
    SAP Customizing IMG -
    > Financial Accounting ( New ) -

    > Ledgers -
    ---> Ledger -
    > Define and Activate Non --Leading

    8.Assign scenarios to ledgers
    A Scenario combines Customizing settings from different
    business views. Each business view specifies which posting
    data is transferred from different application components
    in General Ledger Accounting, such as cost Center update or
    Profit Center update .You assign the desired scenarios to
    your ledgers. For each ledger, you define which fields are
    filled with posting data from other application components.
    SAP delivers a number of scenarios in the standard system.
    It is not possible to create additional scenarios.
    The menu path is:

    Cost of sales accounting is a way to create a profit and
    loss statement (P&L) for a company by comparing the
    revenues to the costs or expenses incurred to obtain these
    revenues.
    The expenses are mainly divided by functional area such as:
    Manufacturing
    Administration
    Sales
    Research and Development
    We can activate Cost of Sales Accounting by the following
