My RAW images are becoming corrupt when opening with Adobe Bridge, showing very bright colours.

Windows Vista, Canon 20d, Dell PC.
Happens to older images not new ones.
Have a raw thumbnail codex installed.
Any help much apreciated
Example attached.
It isn't happening to all images though:

The raw codec doesn't affect Bridge/ACR, only Windows Explorer and applications which use the codec, like Photo Gallery.
The corruption you show is pretty extreme. It's usually the sort of thing you get with a corrupt display profile (Bridge is fully colour-managed), but if that was the case, I would expect it to happen with all of your photos, not just some.
You show the Preview panel is corrupted, but what about full-screen and Camera Raw previews?
What happens if you reset an image to camera raw defaults, with bog-standard settings and an Adobe Camera Profile?
The only other obvious problem I can think of is graphics drivers.
Which versions of Bridge and Camera Raw are you using?

Images are becoming corrupted.

HI, I have a PowerMac G5 circa 2005. And something screwy is happening.
But basically, my images are becoming corrupted. I'll be looking through images with Preview and all of a sudden, part of the images will turn a different color such as green, yellow, magenta...
When I save in photoshop and re-open, a line will appear in part of the image that is slightly darker or lighter.
Here are my computer settings. I am running OS 10.5.8
Model Name: Power Mac G5
Model Identifier: PowerMac7,3
Processor Name: PowerPC G5 (3.0)
Processor Speed: 2.3 GHz
Number Of CPUs: 2
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
Memory: 6.5 GB
Bus Speed: 1.15 GHz
Boot ROM Version: 5.2.4f1
I few months back I changed the harddrive, so I know it probably not that. I read somewhere that I may need to replace my PRAM battery... I reset the PRAM, the problem hasn't re-occurred yet but it may just be a matter of time. Or perhaps a new graphics card... Anyone else have the same issue?
Thanks

Sounds a bit like a Video card or RAM issue.
Get Temperature Monitor to see if it's heat related...

And/or iStat Pro...

If you have any temps in the 70°C/160°F range, that's likely it.
I'd replace the PRAM Battery, 4 years is close to their lifespan, far less if ever without AC power...

Not seeing a DataType.ICON request when browsing with Adobe Bridge?

Hi All,
I have followed the instructions in the "Customizing the UI->Displaying Thumbnails" section of the Adobe Drive SDK documents, but I have a problem. When I browse through my drive with Adobe Bridge, I am not getting the expected request for DataType.ICON for any of my items; when I call item.getDataTypes() from my
IGetAssetsHandler, I only see the DataTypes [BASIC, ASSET_PROPERTY].
Any ideas as to why this might be is happening?

In your ConnectHandler implementation, add the following capability:
capabilities.add(Capability.READ_XMP_METADATA);
I spent a week to figure it out.

CR2 files from CANON will corrupted when preview by Adobe bridge

Hello Frides
This problem started for me since Sep 2012, on CS5 and CS6
Windows 7 Ultimate
64 GB Ram
Quad Core i7
ACR 7.3
ACR 6.2
Camera Canon 5D M2
The problem is when I preview my archive files it corrupt the as well; I can see the CR2 file using ACDsee Pro 5 but when I convert them to Tiff or JPEG it export the corrupted file.
The scary part is if I'm losing my archive CR2 files,
I can’t open these file in Canon Digital Photo Professional after they damaged with Adobe.
This evening I was working on a photo and export it as Tiff , when i change directory in Bridge the same CR2 file corrupted!!!!!
I delete the XMP file associated with the CR2 didn’t help, its look like when bridge try to update the thumbnail somehow it
I tested on my portable workstation
Lenovo w701ds
16 GB Ram / i7 QC / Window7 Pro
stil get this random problem.
CHecked the CF card / Card reader / all my cables on both PC's
My problem is a software problem
PLEASE HELP!!!!! SOS

I have tried all of those and different versions/order of import, different drives and different cards.
Sorry, cross posting the same time it seems.
I just put the image back on the memory card and checked it in the camera and it views normally in the camera.
Again, you are not viewing the Raw file at the back of the camera, it can't show because the Raw data needs to be first demosaiced using a dedicated Raw converter like ACR or Canon DPP. What you see is the embedded jpeg preview the camera produces for this purpose and for using in Finder and other systems that can only view jpeg.
I did try downloading it to a different hard drive directly from the camera...I was able to view the image for about 30 seconds before it corrupted. As I mentioned, for this particular image I actually did a full ACR edit and created a jpg from the RAW file yesterday.
Here we are getting to the strange part of the problem. Can you provide a screenshot of the problem file?
When this happened about 6 months ago, after re-creating a file in the adobe library (unfortunately I can't remember where it was or what the file name was)...it stopped.
That probably would mean the Cache file and plug in from the User library / caches/ Adobe/ Bridge CSxx / Cache and plug in
or from same user library / preferences / Bridgexx plist file. Both files are recreated fresh and empty after restarting Bridge
I was actually able to go back to the corrupted images (4 out of 6) and view the corrupted images and edit them normally!
Try to reset the default setting in ACR
It just started again recently and I have 5 or 6 images that it's happened to. The first 5 corrupted as soon as I loaded them in ACR, this is the first one that corrupted after I edited it. I've tried opening them in iphoto and Canon DPP and they initially preview normally and then corrupt once they fully load the jpg preview.
Can you show both results from ACR and DPP in a screenshot?

Images are automatically saturated when opened in PS

Hi,
I've been using Photoshop for a while, and was recently bought CS5... My problem is, everytime I either import a photo from my files or I copy an image offline, open a new file and then paste in the image, they come out highly saturated.
I've searched the PS forums and have seen it might be something to do with my monitor settings but I'm not particularly good with technical talk so I haven'tgot a clue what I should be looking for or what I should be changing.
Thanks for your help!

Gary's recommendations were right on, Lundberg. But if you felt a more direct response would have been to provide a color-management reference, why not just provide one instead of complaining that others didn't provide one? You raised gator's hackles a bit and you didn't really provide any help.
Floralfidelity, I'm afraid this may be one of those cases where you really ARE going to have to throw your arms wide and try very hard to embrace the technical. It's near impossible to understand why things work the way they do without gaining a basic understanding of what color-management is and how it's implemented in the real world.
I don't personally have any good links to share with you, but a Google search for "introduction to color management" turns up a fair bit of reference material. I only caution you to keep in mind that in this realm a fair number of folks who don't really know what they're doing themselves still try to tell others how to do things, so whenever you read articles keep in mind that no matter how pretty the printing the information may not actually be right. Use your common sense to judge whether what you're reading fits with everything else you've learned.
When you finally do gain an understanding you'll wonder how you ever got things the right colors before.

Png/jpg images are becoming distorted when placing into Muse

Hi,
I have a problem in Muse.
I've made a logo/text in illustrator, saved for web either as png or jpg and when I placed it in Muse it right away became distorted.
Sort of, like you're using a small image and enhance it to much.
Does someone know an easy way to solve this. I'm quite new with these programs, so I'm thinking maybe I'm doing something wrong?
Best regards,
Dennis

Can you supply screenshots of your image in Illustrator and then another image with it in Muse?
If you try resizing the image in Muse you can get distortion if you don't keep the same aspect ratio in the height and width. Always best to make sure your image is the correct size in height and width before adding it to Muse or any Web editing program.

Excel Formula Referring to a UNC Path is Corrupted when Open with Particular Workstation

Hi Experts & Support,
I have a critical problem when trying to refer across Excel workbooks which all are located in different network folders.
There is a cell formula referring to another Excel file using UNC path, for instance, \\myserver\share\folder1\file.xlsm.
It works as long as anyone who is opening the file has no mapped network drive-- access this Excel file directly via UNC path.
However, it turns out that one of the workstation (Windows 2008 Server x64), when trying to access this file--even from UNC path directly-- the link is corrupted. The formula is changed automatically to \\myserver\folder1\file.xlsm (please notice a missing
\share\).
And therefore, when the user on Windows 2008 Server save that Excel file, it causes the original file to be corrupted and every one who access the same file from another computers will all encounter a broken link then.
This Windows 2008 Server has no mapped network drive at all. We have done a lot of researches on the Internet but still couldn't find a solution to this. Is there any way we can investigate further and resolve this issue please?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
In general,this issue should be caused by a mapped drive.you can refer to the KB below:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/328440/en-us
However, as you can be sure that there is no mapped drive in this server. could you please provide a litter more information about this server? Did a different version of Excel install in this server? Maybe you can try a repair of the office
program.
And I guess we can avoid this by using Hyperlink function.

Form is filled on iPad then emailed. If form is opened with Adobe Reader all text is visible, but if opened with Acrobat XI no text is visible.

Form filled on ipad. When opened with Adobe Reader all text is visible, but if opened with Acrobat XI no text is visible- form is blank. Have been using this system for months with no problems.

That suggestion makes sense and likely works, but only if the user is on a machine that will allow them to use Reader. I'm sending this out to a lot of teachers, who are using machines either at school, or are school-issued machines, and they don't have the admin privileges to install software-- even Reader.
so my problem is, if they are stuck on a machine without Reader, and without the possibility of having Reader... it's just not going to work because Preview can't handle these functions.
And, since that is not an acceptable answer with what I'm trying to do... I will find another way to create/submit forms. I think there are some online possibilities I will have to make work.
very, very disappointing and frustrating.

Using Lightroom 5.7, Raw files become from my Nikon D810 become corrupted when I select them to view or edit.

.Updated to Lightroom 5.7 to accommodate the Nikon D810. Upon importing RAW files to the files become corrupted when they are selected to be viewed or edited.
I am using Windows 7, 64 bit, with 8 GB Ram.
Any help would be appreciated.

There are several likely sources of corruption, and video card would be far down on my list of possible suspects.
The transfer from camera card to hard disk is the most likely place for problem, either the card reader or USB cable can go bad. Another likely source of problems is the computer's hard disk is starting to fail. The camera card itself may be bad. And lastly, the memory in the computer may be malfunctioning.

How do I copy my old xl files from my XP machine to operate on xl for Mac on my new iMac. When I copy them onto a stick and transfer them it automatically makes them xls files which are then corrupted when I try to open them in xl for mac

How do I copy my old xl files from my XP machine to operate on xl for Mac on my new iMac. When I copy them onto a stick and transfer them it automatically makes them xls files which are then corrupted when I try to open them in xl for mac

Sorry, yes this is Microsoft Excel. The Microsoft XP has Excel files denoted as xl, the later versions of Microsoft Excel are denoted as xls files. The later verions of Microsoft Excel open the xl files OK, does Excel for Mac not able to do this?

RAW images in Lightroom aren't opening in camera raw in Photoshop. Instead, I have to open the image in Finder before it will open in Camera Raw in Photoshop. How can I correct that?

RAW images in Lightroom aren't opening in camera raw in Photoshop. Instead, I have to open the image in Finder before it will open in Camera Raw in Photoshop. How can I correct that?

Your question is a little unclear. In a "normal" Lightroom/Photoshop workflow the raw images do not open from Lightroom into Camera Raw. Lightroom has all of the Camera Raw functionality in the develop module. When you choose to open an image in Photoshop, and Lightroom and Photoshop are synchronized (i.e. referencing the same version of Camera Raw) then Camera Raw is simply used to interpret the Lightroom adjustments as the image is transferred to Photoshop. If Camera Raw is an older version then Lightroom offers you the choice to open the image or create a PSD or TIF file that includes all of the Lightroom adjustments. But in either case, opening in Camera Raw is not part of the workflow. It is possible to open the image as a smart object or convert the image to the smart object in Photoshop and then open it in Camera Raw. That is done from within Photoshop or is one of the open options in Lightroom. If you choose to go the smart object route the image first has to be opened in Photoshop and then from there you can open it in Camera Raw.

Sony a77 raw files look noisy/grainy when opened on cs6?

HI
i'm having problems with my images looking quite harsh when opening the raw files, this didn't happen on the trial version, i've only just got the cs6 from adobe so is there a setting i need to change?
thanks Andy

You misinterpreted me. I meant that without seeing what you're seeing it's hard to provide accurate help, and that answers would be more like "shots in the dark".
Can you please post a photograph (or small crop from one)? Perhaps even a link to a representative raw file, with which someone else could try and reproduce what you're seeing.
