Colors in LR 5 washed out after transfer to new laptop

I just transferred my Lightroom 5 software to my new laptop, which runs Windows 8.1. I have calibrated the monitor using the software that comes preloaded with that version. The color display looks great on everything except when I open Lightroom. The colors are very gray and washed out in the program. I am wondering if there is a setting within Lightroom that may need to be changed. It is at factory settings as I have just loaded it a couple of days ago. Any ideas greatly appreciated!

It sounds like LR is trying to use your display profile and cannot for some reason. If your calibration is based on a manufacturer-supplied profile for your display, that could be the problem because many manufacturer-supplied profiles are not compatible LR.
What I’d suggest is set your display profile to sRGB-whatever in the Color Management applet in Control Panel, then reboot, then run through the Windows display calibration procedure, again. This will make a display profile based on the standard sRGB profile instead of whatever you were using, before.
Here is a document that describes how to switch your display profile to sRGB in Windows 7, which would be similar to Windows 8:

How do I move my iTunes library from my iPod Classic to my new laptop without losing my music in the synch process?

How do I move my iTunes library from my iPod Classic to my new laptop without ;osong a;; my music in the synch process?

Hi FWFFP,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below will explain how to get music onto your new computer. I'd personally recommend the option of copying the iTunes library from your current computer to an external drive, because it creates a backup for you as well:

Hi, I had to re install my itunes library from a hard drive to my new laptop. Now I cant sync my iphone because itunes thinks all songs are new and basically doubling all albums. Should i restore iphone or is there a better way?

Have you tried exporting a 10 second section of the footage to see if the issue shows up once the seqeunce is actually exported from the timeline. I edit on CS5 with windows 7 pro at work quite often and have no issues so I assure you that isn't the issue. I also edit with AVCHD footage when at home and work quite freqeuntly as well so I'm positive that isn't the issue. It sounds like a GPU driver has been corrupted in the way it interacts with premiere pro. What type of GPU do you have? If it supports MPE's GPU acceleration have you tried turning it off and seeing if that makes any difference?
Anyways though try to export a 10 second test section of your timeline to see if when the clip is exported from premiere it will play normally in windows media player or vlc or w/e media player you want to use. If it exports fine then you can almost be positive it's a corrupted video card driver. If that's the case I'd re-install your GPU's driver and also check your gpu makers website to see if they have a updated driver avaiable.

HT1451 I need to move my library from my old computer to my new laptop. What's the best way to do this?

I need to move my library from my old computer to my new laptop (Windows 8). What's the best way to do this?

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data. If you don't have any Apple devices then see HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

Question: How do I open CS5.5 after migrating to new laptop w/ Mac OS 10.8.4?

question: How do I open CS5.5 after migrating to new laptop w/ Mac OS 10.8.4? I received a dialogue box stating I needed to run Java SE runtime (or something to that effect), when I ok'd it, and try to open cs5.5 Indesign, the program quits on startup. If I uninstall program & reinstall, will my documents be unscathed, or are they toast? Help!

Hi Art Bunny Rabbit,
Migration from one machine to other causes problem most of the time. So I recommend you to reinstall the software. Done worry none of your documents will be effected.

Just after buying a new laptop. How do I transfer my iTunes library from one laptop to the next?

I bought a new laptop not so long back. How do I transfer my iTunes library from my old laptop to my new one without having to download all my CD's again?

Type "move itunes library" into the search bar in the upper right corner of the screen or into your favorite search engine.

Multiple copies of songs after transfer to new computer

This is really annoying me.
I bought a new laptop and I want to transfer all my music from the old to the new. The new laptop has beatsmusic on it (factory installed).
So first I downloaded iTunes. Immediately after loading ITunes I had access to all my music I purchases through the iTunes store. So far so good.
BUT, 95% of my music is CDs that I burned one at a time into my iTunes library. So that transfer is critical. I have an external hard-drive I use to backup all my music. So I transferred the entire library to my new laptop from the external hard drive.
All the music transferred - but not as iTunes MP4 files. Nope - they all became beatsmusic files. I don't want that. Frustrating that computers have to force people to have what they don't want.
I am also dealing with windows 8 - so accessing music library is no longer easy like it used to be.
Anyway - I tried converting all the beats files back to iTunes music files (like they were originally!) Now I have 2 and 3 copies of every song in my library.
The whole thing really irritates me.
Why can't consumers have what they want? Do I start over now? Delete the entire library off the new computer?
I am not going to delete 20,000 songs manually one at a time so forget that suggestion. And the darned beats music is still the default music player.
Considering throwing away all computers and becoming a survivalist in the woods.

Apple's official advice on duplicates is here... HT2905: How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)
Alternativey see this migrate iTunes library post, you may want to revisit the transfer method. If you get it right you don't import anything or create duplicates in the process.

File open dialog doesn't appear after a period of time in latest version of Illustrator CC 2014

Hi All,
Is anyone else having a problem doing a File > Open after using Illustrator for a while? I select File > Open and nothing happens after I've used Illustrator for a while. Doesn't seem to be any pattern to it, the File Open dialog just doesn't appear so I have to shut down and re-open Illustrator.
Thanks,
Ben

Hi Sumit,
I've tried as suggested and reset preferences a few times as outlined on the help page you referenced, but I still have the same issue. If I open one file, within what seems to be a random amount of "open file" or "place" commands, the file open dialog is not invoked and I have to shut down Illustrator and re-open it. Then I can do a open or place once or twice before I'm locked out again. Maybe a re-install of the app?
Thanks,
Ben

These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Note the timestamps of the BOOT_TIME log messages, which refer to the times when the system was started. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, during the time something abnormal was happening. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
For example, if the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down for three minutes before you forced a restart, post the messages timestamped within three minutes before the boot time, not after. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract—not at the beginning.
If there are long runs of repeated messages, please post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
☞ When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent of each. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
☞ If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash or panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
☞ Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Automatic reconnect missing files doesn't work after moving to new pc

In edit-->preferences-->files there is a check box to automatically search for and reconnect missing files. I have checked it and it doesn't appear to do anything. Using File-->reconnect all missing files it seems to find them OK, but you need to click 'reconnect' for every file! I have just moved my pics to a new pc so the path is different. I tried editing the 'My Catalogue.psa" file in Access, search and replace the path, and even that didn't work! 1000s of pics! HELP!!!

Attempted to uninstall Quicktime. The uninstall will not finish, saying it encountered a fatal error. Quicktime will not run, either.
when a QuickTime uninstall throws that message at folks, it's usually best to try completely scraping the itunes and QuickTime program files and installation configuration information from the PC, and doing a careful staged reinstall afterwards.
try the technique in the following post. (it includes instructions on what to do if Add/Remove isn't letting you uninstall one of the programs.)

Camera app doesn't work after installing a new screen

I have been fixing broken iPhone screens for quite some time now but have never come across something like this. After installing a new screen the camera app won't show the camera and the shutter never opens. I thought I didn't put one of the cables in right so I double checked and sure enough they were in good. I restored the phone and tried it again with no luck. I then switched out to another screen I found and the camera worked perfectly. This is so bizzarre to me but can anyone explain to me what is wrong? Or what has happened? I have never seen anything like this.

I keep getting an error message of (0xE80000001)!

How do i restory my entire itunes library from the hard drive of a new laptop to itunes?

I recently got a new laptop and would like to transfer my itunes from the old to the new. I backed up the itunes library to an external hard drive, and have transferred it to the hard drive of the new laptop (I haven't deleted the library from the old laptop). I am operating on windows. I am now stuck and can't seem to restore my entire itunes library to itunes. The items purchased from the itunes store are in the library on the new laptop, but the rest of my music is not. How do I restore it to my itunes library? I have tried opening itunes while holding down shift and selecting "choose library" option, but when I select the itunes folder, it doesn't appear in the library.
help?!

Hello ggjsa,
Congratulations on your new laptop! I understand that you have copied your old iTunes Library to your new computer, but you are still not seeing the music. I recommend reviewing Part 5 in the section titled "External drive" in the following article:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
If you are still having trouble transferring the library using this method, you may want to try using the Home Sharing method in the article.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.
