Mysterious colors in photoshop cc

I just upgraded fro Photoshop CS6 to CC, and now i got a big problem.
Everytime i open a image, jpg for example a jpg image, i got a lot of mysterious colors on my image - why is that?
Sometimes i can change the imagemode to CMYK and that helps, sometimes i have to choose proof colors or something else.
The same things happens when i opens PSD files what was created with CS6
Screenshot attached.
Kind Regards,

Looks like an old OpenGL driver issue.
Update your video card driver from the GPU maker's website (AMD/ATI, NVidia, or Intel).

  • Suddenly unable to print in color from photoshop

    Just put in new print cartridges (both b&w and color) in my HP officejet printer and I suddenly can't print color from photoshop. I'm using a mac os x 10.8.
    I seem to be able to print color from other sources such as directly from the internet, or from preview. When I go to Print in photoshop  if I try to select Color Matching ColorSynch and Vendor Matching are greyed out and unselectable. Not that I ever had to go there before but that seems to be the only difference between the print dialog boxes in photoshop and the other sources.

    You should contact Microsoft for Mac Support  and/or post in their forums.

  • Colors in Photoshop all wrong but OK in other apps. (For example "Whites appear yellow.")

    Q: The colors in Photoshop are all wrong. They have a neon look or are discolored with a blue, red, green or Yellow cast. I look at the same pictures in other applications and they look just fine. How do I fix this?
    A: Recalibrate your monitor using Adobe Gamma (OS9) or the Displays Control in System Preferences (OSX). Photoshop uses your monitor profile to display your images other apps don't. Be sure you start the recalibration using a fresh monitor profile (sRGB or the profile that came with your monitor for example). If you try to recalibrate using the old corrupt profile you will still have a corrupt monitor profile and your color will still be bad. Also, if you are using OS 9 make sure you are using ColorSync 3.0.4. The 3.0.4 patch is available on the Apple web site.
    See also support document 319456, "Colors Are Incorrect (For example White Appears Yellow)" at http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/319456.html. The document is for Windows, but it may be useful for Macintosh.
    Here is another link to monitor calibration http://www.gballard.net/psd/colorlooksbad.html

    Thanks. But it looks like in all my frustration, I wasn't  sure  my original call for help had posted, so must have  submitted the same question again.
    But I just had a new thought on the problem. While reviewing a story I received from another website,  I noticed that the photos attached to the article  looked  a lot like  what I described  in my  message. It made me wonder if I have a software problem at all . . . or if it's the screen on my Mac that needs recalibration!
    It only took 2 minutes to find a website that discussed it — with sample screens to help determine if that was what I'm dealing with. Since a screen supposedly showing a mix of numbered, grey boxes looked totally white to me and I could only see the white numbers on a screen that supposedly contained boxes in varying shades of black, I think I might be on the right track. Just not sure, since I had to reach the bottom of the page before spotting the pitch for a product that supposedly will recalibrate  for me. I'm not sure I want to tackle recalibration on my own, but may call the Mac Geniuses at our local mall  and see  if my hunch is right . . .and if so, what they would charge to do it for me.
    BTW, if it sounds like a calibration problem, do you think moving my computer  from one desk top another (just 5 feet away) could have caused it? I'm not sure, since it wasn't on my mind at the time, but I think that's roughly when I first started to notice discrepancies in color.

  • Question on scanned images and coloring in Photoshop

    I have some sketches from my drawing class that I would like to scan and color in Photoshop. I scan the sketch
    but I can't add color. I've tried 'lassoing' a portion of the drawing
    but the paint bucket still won't add color.
    What am I doing wrong? Please help.
    thanks.

    The Paint Bucket tool may be the wrong tool, or at least you may have its Threshold set to a low value, as it replaces pixels only of a similar color to the one you click on.
    It may be more direct to just select the Brush tool and set up a large brush to paint solid color in the region you selected.
    If you want to get into more advanced functionality, which will allow you to correct mistakes or continue to adjust your colorizing for example, perhaps you will want to create a new layer and paint on that layer.  Without knowing your goals it's hard to advise further, but you might also want to learn more about Layer blending mode "Color" vs. "Normal".

  • How do I print accurate colors with Photoshop CS4 and Yosemite?

    I recently upgraded to OS 10.10, Yosemite. I can no longer get accurate colors printed for photos from Photoshop. I have Photoshop CS4 and I use an Epson Stylus Photo R2400 printer. I am able to use Photoshop for everything but printing accurately. I downloaded all recommended drivers for the printer, reloaded profiles for the printer and even tried a trial of Photoshop CC. Nothing resolves the problem. My prints look kind of solarized. Black and white photos have green areas where there should be black. Please help.

    I thought my problem could be Lightroom is in ProphotoRGB color space, and my printer is Adobe1998 color space.  To test this, I changed the color space of my patches from prophoto to AdobeRGB. I checked my colors in Photoshop, and made them match the RGB number I specified.  It was interesting to note that (128,128,255) had a noticeable shift to purple.  the other colors shifted slightly.  Now I printed the test page with Lightroom managing color and the printer managing color.  Both images came out similar.
    This study came about when I was printing some images, and the sky had a definite purple shift.  So, I took the image into Photoshop and converted the colorspace from prophoto to Adobe.  Printed the image, and the image came out much better.
    So the question now is, do I need to convert each image I print in Photoshop, or am I doing something wrong in Lightroom?

  • Sudden problems printing in color from photoshop?

    I just put in new ink cartridges in my HP officejet printer and suddenly I'm unable to print color from photoshop. I can print color in other programs but just not photoshop. I'm using OS X 10.8 and an old photoshop version CS2. It worked fine until I changed the cartridges.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Okay, that's odd. Well, most of the major things in Photoshop are similar between Mac and Win.
    As for the reset, I am wondering if it works with CS2 or not. Edit: yes it does work on CS2. Please try the other Option key on your keyboard. Also, be sure the print menu is the active window.
    First try closing print and re-opening while holding the spacebar. Also be sure the printer's drivers are up to date.
    The next step is a Photoshop preference reset: Hold Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Opt+Shift as you initiate Photoshop's startup. Select "yes" when asked if you would like to continue with reset.

  • Windows Vista Photo Gallery displays incorrect colors? Photoshop?

    Hi all
    I have two PC's running Windows Vista that I work with and both have photoshop CS3 installed, but for what ever reason on one of the PC's the Windows Photo Gallery application displays really desaturated colors when views jpg's and the like (the other PC's displays them fine).
    I've googled and haven't yet found out a quality solution, lots of info on simply combining and replacing drivers and the like and nothing really set in stone from Adobe, or Microsoft etc
    Any help would be great

    Are both your monitors hardware calibrated? Is Windows Photo Gallery a fully colour managed application?
    If the answer to one or both questions is no then you cannot expect similar results.
    If the monitors are calibrated and Photoshop has identical colour settings then the images should appear similar on each computer.

  • Problem with blue color in Photoshop CS4 after calibrating monitor

    Hi to all! I would appreciate if someone can help me!
    Before some days I calibrated my monitor with Pantone Huey Pro and after that I find out that photoshop doesn't show blue color corectly. I create a blue (0,0,255) page and it looks a bit like violet, while I don't have any problems with red and green (which are perfect), or with other programs (other programs display blue and all colors correctly). But when I save this blue page and open it with a different program I see the real blue color. So the problem is that during editing in Photoshop blue color isn't correct, it's a bit violet.
    Can anyone tell me why blue color doesn't behave properly in Photoshop? Is there any setting I should change in Photoshop Color Settings?
    I use sRGB on my camera, and sRGB in Photoshop (North America General Purpose 2, sRGB IEC61966-2.1, U.S. Web coated (SWOP) v2, Dot Gain 20%,  Dot Gain 20).
    Thanks for your time!
    George

    Thanks for your quick responce!
    I update Huey and Photoshop and did the calibration again but it didn't fix the problem. Is it possible that the calibrator doesn't work properly?
    My monitor isn't very new, so I don't think it has wide gamut display.
    When you say that "if your display is not truely sRGB" you mean that maybe the profile created Huey isn't correct? I have done many times the calibration and the result is always the same.
    I think that Paintshop uses color management, too, shouldn't it display the same wrong blue color if Huey's profile is wrong?
    How can I check if Huey works properly? Maybe I should try it on a different PC?
    Thanks for your time!!!
    Best regards,
    George

  • Need help adjusting colors in  Photoshop (CS2)

    I'm not a neither a novice nor a pro when it comes to Photoshop. (Just somewhere in-between) . . . So don't understand why  I''m suddenly having problems with colors in my photos looking accurate  on my canera, but almsot  completely red and yellow in Photoshop. Initially though the camera was at fault, until I switched cameras  and still had the same problem, so figured itmust be  Photoshop.
    Since  Photoshop CS2 has all the features I need,  I've never bothered to upgrade. . . which turned out to be a problem when I tried to follow the instructions for creating  new adjustment layers. (Was OK until I reached the last step, when  my menus were different than  those in the guide.) Have spent  most of the last 2 days trying to manipulate all the options  under the Image Adjustment menu, but am running our of patience and luck.
    The problem seems to have been increasing in recent  weeks (or months), but this is the first time I've been absolutely stumped and unable to  come up with a usable solution.

    Thanks. But it looks like in all my frustration, I wasn't  sure  my original call for help had posted, so must have  submitted the same question again.

  • Colors in Photoshop look oversaturated?

    Hi all, not sure why but my color in CS4 Photoshop look oversaturated.
    When I view them with ACDsee viewer or Canon software they both look the same. But when I use photoshop the images look too saturated. It's not easy to edit my photos, as the out put does not look the same as when I am editing.
    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance, awaiting any messages that may help out.

  • Colors in Photoshop look different elsewhere

    When I open a picture in Photoshop CS3 or Camera RAW for editing and then save that picture, and then open the saved picture in any program other than Photoshop, the colors and tints and saturation are very different. I am pretty sure this has to do with my color profile in Photoshop, but I've checked many online sources and my color settings seem to match up more or less with what's recommended. My camera is set to sRGB and Photoshop is set to sRGB IEC61966-2.1, and this is happening both with JPEGs and RAWs, from two different Canon cameras.
    Pictures look more natural when viewed in Photoshop than in other programs (I think), even before any editing...how could this be?
    The weird things is, when I go to Edit > Assign Profile and then select "Lighthouse (D65 G2.2 A34.29)" from the drop-down menu, the image in Photoshop now looks exactly like it does when I open the same image in an image viewing program. What does this mean?
    Also, when viewing my photos in Bridge CS3, the colors look like they do in Photoshop until I zoom in 100% and the photo finishes loading the actual pixels, at which point the colors dramatically change.
    How can I edit pictures in Photoshop and Camera RAW when what I'm editing is not what's actually seen? This is very frustrating. Anybody have any ideas?

    Thank you both for your replies. My monitor has been properly calibrated, but not for a long time. I know that this will not help when it comes to color representation, but this is not my problem. My problem is that the images in Photoshop look different than elsewhere. I am wondering if there is either a way to make Photoshop display the photos as they will appear on websites and such, or a way to save the photos as they actually appear in Photoshop.
    I find it odd that I have not noticed this until recently. There is a very significant difference between the colors in the two environments. If the problem truly has rooted from an uncalibrated monitor, I will simply calibrate it (I would have already but I don't have a calibration device any more). But I don't think that's the whole problem here.

  • Color Management, Photoshop CS3 and Epson Inkjet Printer

    I have been down this road before but here goes again...
    Im using Photoshop CS3.
    Im printing on an Epson Stylus Photo RX680 using Photo quality inkjet paper.
    I know this printer is capable of very good quality prints.
    Thing is I can not figure out the correct combination of color management settings to get a decent print out of Photoshop or InDesign.
    I have read that you are supposed to turn off all printer color management and let Adobe manage the color. Doesnt seem to work.
    I just get overly magenta images that look awful.
    If I let the Epson color management control color I can get a lot closer but the print out is far from accurate or high quality.
    So what the heck IS the correct protocol for printing to an Epson inkjet printer from an Adobe app.
    BTW, I do seem to get a fairly decent print out of something like a PDF which I understand does its own postscript conversion before hitting the printer.
    Is this what my issue is?
    Does Photoshop or InDesign require postscript ripper software to get decent results out of an inkjet printer?

    Have spent hours with both Adobe and Epson support people. I've read several of these forums. Is there an insurmountable problem with CS3 and Epson (2200/2400 are mine)? I have the Leopard patches and upgrade 10.5.4.
    With Photoshop managing the color I get prints that are slightly underexposed and carry a pink cast. Color management is off. With the printer managing the color I get prints that are too green and dark. Epson advice here is to have color management off. There are two other choices for management but to adjust a perfectly balanced print to the printer's whim seem like cruel punishment.
    Have a calibrated monitor and my CS2 works beautifully. Perhaps the best idea is to just go back to CS2 until Adobe and Epson can decide what to do. According to Adobe people, the CS3 gives much of the management back to Epson. According to Epson -- with CS3, you should choose the printer to manage the color (since this seems to be the trend between the two companies) but we users are not happy with the results.
    What is the solution for right now?

  • Spot Color in photoshop

    I have a customer that does a front and back newsletter in photoshop.
    They use 100% black and 100% magenta and save it as a .psd. (They don't have no other layout programs)
    How can I put it in an IndesignCS2 or quark document and separate it into 2 colors?
    Your prompt response is appreciated!
    Thank you, Marie

    They weren't Ann. There were two images that were 4c gray. Everything else was either only on the magenta or black channel.
    I converted the two 4c process images to 1 channel grayscale and sent the file back to Marie.
    I haven't heard back from Marie, but I assume the job has gone to print.
