My spotcolors aren't displaying correctly. (Different from the swatch)

I am having an issue that has just randomly happened where when I want to make a colour a certain spot colour from my swatch library fill a certain shape it DOESNT CHANGE the colour yet it SAYS IT IS ANOTHER COLOUR when I do a separations preview. I'll try to explain.
The thing is is that it works to be changed to any other colour in my swatch library than the one I want it to be changed to. And this issue is only happening to ONE swatch in particular that I have not made any alterations to, and that has always worked perfectly. If I create a new document it will display correctly, but when I paste the shape into another document that has the same exact settings and spot colours it pasts as a different colour. (like the same as Top Black 2)
I AM HAVING DIFFICULTY WITH TOP BLACK 1 (these spot colours have not changed and I've always used them.)
My shapes are wayyyyy too much to remake in the new document- so I have to copy and paste many layers.
I'm sorry if this seems confusing I made up some pictures.  I am just using circles to show you my problem.
Below is when I have made a new document from the same template I use and have always used. The spot colours from my library are seen here in their proper colours. (by the way I am not working in greyscale I still use actual colours. My document is CMYK)
SO this happens vice versa if I paste  shape TOP BLACK 1 from an old document into a new or from a new document to an older one.
Below You now see what I have copied from my brand new document (above) and have pasted it into my previous document and as you can see, my TOP BLACK 1 has now darkened now displaying as my Top Black 2.(or at least close to it) I CAN change the TOP BLACK 1 shape into any other colour, for example my working pink colour. But when I click it to be Top Black 1 it still stays the way it is shown here. I think you can notice that what TOP BLACK 1 is now is way darker than the Grey it's supposed to be in my library on the right. Circle 3 and 4 have correctly copied and pasted in the correct colour.
Heres the other strange thing too. If I click and hold my TOP BLACK 1 swatch in my library (as seen above) and drag it to my main illustrator swatch library, it displays darker. The pink arrow shows the swatch that it has turned into. I am so confused of what it is doing.
When I turn on my separations preview and turn off top black 1 all that i have that is TOP BLACK 1 disappears... so it is SEPARATING correctly its just not displaying on my screen as the correct colour.
Let me know if there is anything else to explain. I have restarted my computer, reset launch settings etc. I only found one forum where a person has the same problem and it had a few suggestions of the appearance panel settings but none of that has worked. I have the most updated Illustrator CC
Thankyou.

1 appears to be the one that is off the most.
2 is slightly off
You may have an extra fill assigned at the group level that is overiding the fill at the Path level. Doubleclick on the word Contents in your appearance palette to get to the path level. To fix you can delete the fill at the group level, or simply ungroup  to break that attribute.
As Larry mentioned, posting the file is the best way to get an answer to this one.
If you cannot post the file, we will need to know what color document color mode, and the color type and values.
You can also check this setting.

  • Why does Photoshop display colors differently from the other applications even in sRGB mode ?

    Hello all !
    Here is my problem :
    Photoshop is set to use sRGB workspace (in edit/colors.../workspace/RVB).
    If I understand correctly this is how all native windows applications work.
    This means Photoshop and the other applications should display the same colors on a file with a sRGB profile.
    Now this is the case until I calibrate my monitor.
    When I do, Photoshop colors become different from the other applications (irfanview, explorer, browsers...).
    The only way I found to let everything display the same colors is to set Photoshop to use Proofing/RVB Monitor.
    What upsets me even more is that Photoshop colors look "better" to me (dark grays seem to dark to me in the other applications.)
    I have read that this is because Photoshop takes the new profile into account and others applications do not. But I don't think this is relevant here because everything is in sRGB so the only profile is my monitor's and I think calibration is handled globally by windows : everything (including browsers, explorer, and Photoshop) changes color if I choose to apply the monitor's profile or not with windows color management tool ("use my parameters for this device").
    Here is my system configuration :
    - Photoshop CS4 (11.0.2)
    - Windows 7 64 bits
    - HP ZR2440W and DELL 2209WA (these are not wide gamut screens)
    I have spent two days trying to figure the logics behind this and really am upset. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Don't hesitate to ask me if there is something that is unclear or some information I forgot to mention.
    Thanks in advance,
    Yannick

    That sounds like an invitation to continue to talk about the issue.  Fair enough.
    I'm not sure where you're getting "insecurity"...  I am just trying to help you help others more effectively.
    I invite you to re-read just the first sentence of what you wrote very carefully, putting yourself in the shoes of someone struggling with both the terminology and the concepts:
    Photoshop (CMS) reads an embedded ICC profile and CONVERTS it to the custom monitor profile for a theoretical 'true color' display
    Think about what "Photoshop (CMS)" might mean to a person who doesn't know the acronym might stand for "Color Management System" (which is I assume what you meant).  Adobe themselves don't call it "CMS", they use the acronym "CMM" (Color Management Module).  The term "CMS" is used in the computer industry for about a dozen different things.
    While a color profile might have been embedded in an image file before it was opened by Photoshop, Photoshop works on documents.  A profile is not "embedded" in a document, it is maintained by Photoshop with the document and describes the color values in the document.  If Photoshop opens a document without an embedded profile, depending on settings and user choices it might assign a profile or it might even operate on the document without color-management.  Oversimplification doesn't help people when they're trying to learn new things unless it's described as such, for example, "This is a bit of an oversimplification..." or "Generally speaking..."
    Not every monitor profile is a "custom monitor profile".  Quite often a standard profile (e.g., sRGB IEC61966-2.1) is associated with a monitor by the operating system as a default, or a factory profile is installed by a driver package or system update.  Your use of the term "custom" is a bit ambiguous and could be read as implying the creation of a profile using a calibration and profiling device specific to the particular monitor.
    Photoshop's color management code does not convert an embedded ICC profile at all (read carefully what you wrote).  As I said, it transforms color values.  That was the key error in your description that prompted me to comment.
    If ever there is a time to pick words carefully, it's in a color-management discussion.

  • Mapviewer displaying maps differently from the client than from the server

    Can anyone explain to me why this is happening. I have been deploying my java server page to the server, and the way it works is to have multiple base routes which are not originally shown, but the user can 'check' them and they will display. On the server this works as one would expect, but on the client
    I originally couldn't get this to work through Jdeveloper, but now it works -- that's another story :(
    all of my base maps are displayed when the map first comes up. I don't want this to occur because it takes too long. Anyway, does anyone know why the map is working different from the client than it does when I deploy it to the server? Here is the significant code:
    var basemap1 = new MVBaseMap("ds_prod.prod_rdlg_qry");
    var basemap2 = new MVBaseMap("ds_prod.interstate", "", true);
    basemap2.setTransparent(true);
    var basemap3 = new MVBaseMap("ds_prod.primary", "", true);
    basemap3.setTransparent(true);
    mapview = new MVMapView(document.getElementById("map"), baseURL);
    mapview.addBaseMapLayer(basemap1);
    mapview.addBaseMapLayer(basemap2);
    mapview.addBaseMapLayer(basemap3);
    basemap1.setVisible (true);
    basemap2.setVisible (false);
    basemap3.setVisible (false);
    Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi
    Whitch version of mapviewer are you using? (MVBaseMap/addBaseMapLayer is for older versions, and in newer there is MVMapTileLayer/addMapTileLayer)
    I had similar difficulties displaying multiple tile layers in application with mapviewer ver. B080618. (not sute, may be in newer versions this works different)
    When adding all tile layers initially and then setting theig Visible properties, browser fetches from server data for ALL the layers (even if they were set to visible -> false)
    the workaround was to add aditional layers ony when this is needed.

    Try this...
    Triple click anywhere in the line below to select it and press Ctrl+C to copy it.
    cmd /k netsh winsock reset
    Press the WinLogoKey+R to open the run dialog, then Ctrl+V to paste, then press enter/return.
    You should get something similar to this:
    Reboot the computer and the problem should be resolved.
    If it doesn't work then perhaps a full tear down and rebuild of iTunes will fix things. See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for details.

    Folks,
    even after having repaired the inbox folder under "properties" a few times, I still had some e-mails where the contents are different from the subject line.
    In other words in the inbox there are two e-mails: one with subject line "abc", and another one with subject line "def".
    When I display the e-mail with the subject line "abc", the contents are from the e-mail with the subject line "def" in the in-basket.
    What else can be done to correct this problem?
    Thanks and best regards.

  • In the info bar at the bottom of the iphoto window, why is the number of items different from the total

    In the info bar at the bottom of the iphoto screen, why is the number of items different from the total?

    What version of iPhoto and system are you running? What mode are you in, i.e. Events, Photos?
    If it's the Photos mode the number at the bottom will represent the number of photos displayed in that mode or the number of photos selected in that mode. The number will match the number next to the photos mode only when there are no photos in that mode that are selected. 
    If you click on the Events icon and then back on the photos icon the numbers should match.

  • HA-VMM cannot be installed : HAVMM name in db is differs from the user specified HAVMM name

    I have a two node HA VMM cluster.  This is working correctly and has been for while.  I am now attempting to add an additional node to the cluster.
    I joined the node to the cluster and then start the VMM install and follow the wizard till it gets to the Database Configuration Page.  When I Click Next here nothing happens.
    If I check the C:\ProgramData\VMMLogs\SetupWizard.log file I see the following error as the last item.
    HA-VMM cannot be installed : HAVMM name in db is differs from the user specified HAVMM name
    If I check the S
    CVMMCDB01 I find the HAVMMName property with a value of SCVMMC01.domainname  This is the same value that is returned when using powershell with Get-SCVMMServer
    When I check the cluster configuration it is the same story.  I connect to the  cluster name scvmmc01.
    Even if I look at Cluster Manager I can see the name is tied correctly.
    Any ideas would be great as I am effectively now stuck and cannot install another node.

    Greetings!
    It happened because you renamed your VMM cluster after first node installation.
    Juts update HAVMMName value in dbo.tbl_VMM_GlobalSetting. Start SQL Server Management Studio, connect to your VMM DB, and Edit table.

  • My iMac address book is different from the iCloud address book. Why

    My iCloud address book and the addresses on my iPhones and iPads and a second are different from the address book on my iMac.  My computer seems complete, the others are missing addresses which appear in my iMac addresses.  How can I get the iCloud addresses to synch with my iMac address book?

    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
    This user tip might help you understand how accounts work with Address Book.

    You are welcome. I'm glad you got it back up.
    (1) You say you did the symbolic link. I will assume this is set correctly; it's very important that it is.
    (2) I don't know what you mean by "Been feeding the [email protected] for several weeks now, 700 emails each day at least." After the initial training period, SpamAssassin doesn't learn from mail it has already processed correctly. At this point, you only need to teach SpamAssassin when it is wrong. [email protected] should only be getting spam that is being passed as clean. Likewise, [email protected] should only be getting legitimate mail that is being flagged as junk. You are redirecting mail to both [email protected] and [email protected] ... right? SpamAssassin needs both.
    (3) Next, as I said before, you need to implement those "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server." Once you have that done and issue "postfix reload" you can look at your SMTP log in Server Admin and watch as Postfix blocks one piece of junk mail after another. It's kind of cool.
    (4) Add some SARE rules:
    Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/rules.htm and download the following rules:
    70sareadult.cf
    70saregenlsubj0.cf
    70sareheader0.cf
    70sarehtml0.cf
    70sareobfu0.cf
    70sareoem.cf
    70sarespoof.cf
    70sarestocks.cf
    70sareunsub.cf
    72sare_redirectpost
    Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/other-rules.htm and download the following rules:
    backhair.cf
    bogus-virus-warnings.cf
    chickenpox.cf
    weeds.cf
    Copy these rules to /etc/mail/spamassassin/
    Then stop and restart mail services.
    There are other things you can do, and you'll find differing opinions about such things. In general, I think implementing the "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server" and adding the SARE rules will help a lot. Good luck!

  • Is there a way to get the correct order from the dependent types of a sche

    Hi ,
    I have a CT facing the following problem:
    When trying to built a SQL script to create all the object types within a schema using the DBMS_METADATA packages.
    Did insert in a table the names of the types that will be exported following a concrete order, next loop into the table and call the DBMS_METADATA package for each row.
    These type are depedent between them, there are some type attributes calling other types and here the issue
    First : try to generate the order by created column of dba_objects and when the generated SQL script is launched a lot of type appearing as incomplete state due to the order isn't correct.
    Second : try to insert the table ordering by object_id colums of dba_tables view, it appears incomplete types too.
    Currently want to insert the table using a recursive query with connect by against the dba_type_attrs starting with the rows when ATTR_TYPE_NAME is not null (the types that are called by other types), but this way has a issue dificult to resolve: the roots of hierarchy are the rows when ATTR_TYPE_NAME is not null and we've dependencies between roots nodes
    The question is is there a way to get the correct order from the dependent types of a schema?
    Platform: IBM SP AIX
    DB version: 9.2.0.7
    Any help will be appreciated .
    Thanks in advance.

    The xxx_dependencies view should give you the dependencies betwee nthe various types. I would look at something along the lines of:
    SELECT object_name, referenced_name
    FROM (SELECT o.object_name, d.referenced_name
          FROM user_objects o, user_dependencies d
          WHERE o.object_name = d.name(+) and
                o.object_type = d.type(+) and
                d.referenced_type(+) = 'TYPE' and
                o.object_type = 'TYPE')
    START WITH referenced_name IS NULL
    CONNECT BY PRIOR object_name = referenced_nameThe outer join between user_objects and user_dependencies is required to generate the names of types which are not dependent on other types, or do not have other types dependent on them.

  • How can i AppendText to richTextBox only if the text is new(different) from the text that is already in the richTextBox ?

    Code
    public void ScrollNews()

    combindedString = string.Join(Environment.NewLine, ListsExtractions.myList);
    richTextBox1.SelectAll();
    richTextBox1.SelectionAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Right;

    RedColorAlert1();
    if (lines == null)
    label5.Text = "0";
    else
    label5.Text = lines.Length.ToString();
    The line is:
    richTextBox1.AppendText(combindedString);
    I'm calling this method ScrollNews every X minutes with a timer.
    The way it is now it will AppendText all the time. But i want it to Add the combinededString only if the text in combindedString was different from the text that is already in the richTextBox. Somhow to keep all the time the last text and compare it and
    if there is a new text then appen it.

    public void Scroll()
    listsext.Ext(page);
    combindedString = string.Join(Environment.NewLine, ListsExtractions.myList);
    richTextBox1.SelectAll();
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    sb.Append(combindedString);
    richTextBox1.SelectionAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Right;
    richTextBox1.AppendText(combindedString);
    The problem is that now it will keep adding to the richTextBox the content in combindedString over and over again. I need somehow to check each time if the content in combindedString already exist in the richTextBox if not meaning it's new content then AppendText
    it.
    If it's the same already exist do nothing don't add it.
    EDIT
    I write to a text file the content of the ombindedString variable .The first content the lines is the combindedString:
