Need help understanding profiles and color management

I made the big leap from inexpensive inkjets to:
1 Epson 3800 Standard
2 Spyder3Studio
I have a Mac Pro Quad, Aperture, PS3, etc.
I have a steep learning curve ahead, here's what I've done:
1 Read a lot of books, watched tutorials, etc.
2 Calibrated the monitor
3 Calibrated the printer several times and created .icc profiles
What I've found:
1 The sample print produced by Spyder3Print, using the profile I created with color management turned off in the print dialog, looks very good.
2 When I get into Aperture, and apply the .icc profile I created in the proofing profile with onscreen proofing, the onscreen image does not change appreciably compared with the no proof setting. It gets slightly darker
3 When I select File>Print image, select the profile I created, turn off color management and look a the resulting preview image it looks much lighter and washed out than the onscreen image with onscreen proofing turned on.
4 When I print the image, it looks the same as was shown in the print preview...light and washed out, which is much different than what is shown in edit mode.
5 When I open PS3 with onscreen soft-proofing, the onscreen image is light and washed out...just like displayed in PS3 preview. If I re-edit the image to look OK onscreen, and print with the profile and color management turned off, the printed image looks OK.
So, why am I confused?
1 In the back of my simplistic and naive mind, I anticipated that in creating a custom printer profile I would only need to edit a photo once, so it looks good on the calibrated screen, and then a custom printer profile will handle the work to print a good looking photo. Different profiles do different translations for different printers/papers. However, judging by the PS work, it appears I need to re-edit a photo for each printer/paper I encounter...just doesn't seem right.
2 In Aperture, I'm confused by the onscreen proofing does not present the same image as what I see in the print preview. I'm selecting the same .icc profile in both locations.
I tried visiting with Spyder support, but am not able to explain myself well enough to help them understand what I'm doing wrong.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Calibrated the printer several times and created .icc profiles
You have understand that maintaining the colour is done by morphing the colourants, and you have understood that matching the digital graphic display (which is emissive) to the print from the digital graphic printer (which is reflective) presupposes a studio lighting situation that simulates the conditions presupposed in the mathematical illuminant model for media independent matching. Basically, for a display-to-print match you need to calibrate and characterise the display to something like 5000-55000 kelvin. There are all sorts of arguments surrounding this, and you will find your way through them in time, but you now have the gist of the thing.
So far so good, but what of the problem posed by the digital graphic printer? If you are a professional photographer, you are dependent on your printer for contract proofing. Your prints you can pass to clients and to printers, but your display you cannot. So this is critical.
The ICC Specification was published at DRUPA Druck und Papier in Düsseldorf in May 1995 and ColorSync 2 Golden Master is on the WWDC CD for May 1995. Between 1995 and 2000 die reine Lehre said to render your colour patch chart in the raw condition of the colour device.
The problem with this is that in a separation the reflectance of the paper (which is how you get to see the colours of the colourants laid down on top of the paper) and the amount of colourant (solid and combinations of tints) gives you the gamut.
By this argument, you would want to render the colour patch chart with the most colourant, but what if the most colourant produces artifacts? A safer solution is to have primary ink limiting as part of the calibration process prior to rendering of the colour patch chart.
You can see the progression e.g. in the BEST RIP which since 2002 has been owned by EFI Electronics for Imaging. BEST started by allowing access to the raw colour device, with pooling problems and whatnot, but then introduced a primary ink limiting and linearisation.
The next thing you need to know is what colour test chart to send to the colour device, depending on whether the colour device is considered an RGB device or a CMYK device. By convention, if the device is not driven by a PostScript RIP it is considered an RGB device.
The colour patch chart is not tagged, meaning that it is deviceColor and neither CIEBased colour or ICCBased colour. You need to keep your colour patch chart deviceColor or you will have a colour characterisation of a colour managed conversion. Which is not what you want.
If the operating system is colour managed through and through, how do you render a colour test chart without automatically assigning a source ICC profile for the colourant model (Generic RGB Profile for three component, Generic CMYK Profile for four component)?
The convention is that no colour conversion occurs if the source ICC device profile and the destination ICC device profile are identical. So if you are targetting your inkjet in RGB mode, you open an RGB colourant patch chart, set the source ICC profile for the working space to the same as the destination ICC profile for the device, and render as deviceColor.
You then leave the rendered colourant test chart to dry for one hour. If you measure a colourant test chart every ten minutes through the first hour, you may find that the soluble inkjet inks in drying change colour. If you wait, you avoid this cause of error in your characterisation.
As you will mainly want to work with loose photographs, and not with photographs placed in pages, when you produce a contract proof using Absolute Colorimetric rendering from the ICC profile for the printing condition to the ICC profile for your studio printer, here's a tip.
Your eyes, the eyes of your client, and the eyes of the prepress production manager will see the white white of the surrounding unprinted margins of the paper, and will judge the printed area of the paper relative to that.
If, therefore, your untrimmed contract proof and the contract proof from Adobe InDesign or QuarkPress, or a EFI or other proofing RIP, are placed side by side in the viewing box your untrimmed contract proof will work as the visual reference for the media white.
The measured reference for the media white is in the ICC profile for the printing condition, to be precise in the WTPT White Point tag that you can see by doubleclicking the ICC profile in the Apple ColorSync Utility. This is the lightness and tint laid down on proof prints.
You, your client and your chosen printer will get on well if you remember to set up your studio lighting, and trim the blank borders of your proof prints. (Another tip: set your Finder to neutral gray and avoid a clutter of white windows, icons and so forth in the Finder when viewing.)
So far, so good. This leaves the nittygritty of specific ICC profiling packages and specific ICC-enabled applications. As for Aperture, do not apply a gamma correction to your colourant patch chart, or to colour managed printing.
As for Adobe applications, which you say you will be comparing with, you should probably be aware that Adobe InDesign CS3 has problems. When targetting an RGB printing device, the prints are not correctly colour managed, but basically bypass colour management.
There's been a discussion on the Apple ColorSync Users List and on Adobe's fora, see the two threads below.
Hope this helps,

2012 R2 Need help understanding profiles/run as accounts

I'm new to SCOM, just installed 2012 R2, everything is set up. Basically only 2 servers.
I've installed management packs for base OS, IIS, AD, Lync 2013, SQL.
The first thing after that I set up a run as account for email notifications. In doing so I used an AD account but chose less secure.
I then created a notification channel, subscribers, and subscriptions. It worked and I was getting emails because I bound by Notification action account to the notification account profile. The problem in doing so is that now I got alerts on all
my DCs that the run as account does not exist on the target machine. So in choosing "less secure" or "all targeted objects" on the run as account, it is trying to use that account for my notifications instead of the default.
So I started messing around with things, such as the run as accounts used for the notification account profile but things are just not working as expected.
Also for some reason the 3 Microsoft Lync Server Profiles have the network server windows account bound to them which I can't remove.
So in the end here is what I did for email alerts. We have a seperate anonymous SMTP relay set up. I created a new run as account called "notification action account" and chose an newly created AD account which is just a domain
user. Inside of the distribution tab, I selected more secure but added the SCOM server itself because I don't have the agent installed on our open SMTP relay and it allows internal anonymous email. Under the Profiles, Notification Account I set the run
as account to the "Notification action account" I created, but still selected all targeted objects. That seems to be working and I'm not getting alerts from my DCs about the account doesn't exist on the target.
I'm just not understanding why if you don't specify more secure and put in specific servers, it trys to use that account to connect to everything instead of using the default.

Hi,
If you choose to distribute the Run as account to all the agents, all the workflows on the agents associates with this profile will use this account.

Need help with transparency and color quality in the forground

I need to make an image that is comprised of a collage in the back with a clear visible logo on top. I'm not sure if I'll need to change the hue's of the background collage images to create the image or if theres a way to make the image somewhat see through but keep true to the colors of the forground?

I agree with Trevor. I think you are over thinking the issue. Just place a logo in the same document, scale it, adjust its opacity if necessary and your done. As for the background of the logo, that can depend on how it was created. Preferable in photoshop so that you have a transparent background. But if the background happens to be pure white or black, you can use blend modes to remove the background.
But I am getting ahead of my self. Lets see how you do, post your results, if necessary a screen capture of photoshop with the layers panel open.

Need help understanding soundtracks and video

Hi,
I write music for myself (http://www.youtube.com/jgelhaar or http://www.myspace.com/bonjimmy) and I just saw the movie "The Holiday". In the movie Jack Blacks' character writes music for video. My question is what kind of software is handling this type of thing in the real world? Obviously I don't care so much about the PC side...
I have a contact that makes videos for YouTube and he's used my music on some of them (example is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Zf3ET52BvA ) But in these cases, he just takes something that I've done and then puts it on his video as a sound track. I think it would be much better for me to write the music specifically for the video instead of the other way around. So I need to know what kind of software one would use for that purpose. With that, it would be nice to know what kind of a rig would need to be put together. Right now, I only have a couple of G4's at my disposal, but I am in the market for a new system once I can put the funds together. :/
Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated.
Jimmy

I figured the G4 wouldn't be able to hack it and I plan on getting a new system for this.
So when you're composing in Logic, is it a recording application that also shows the video or does Logic have to sync with something else for the video?
Now that you've assured me that Logic 8 is the right place for me, I will do more reading about it. Thanks a lot for your comments.

Need help understanding JPA and detached entities.

I keep getting the dreaded "Cannot Persist detached object" and I cannot understand why EclipseLink is even trying to persist the object.
The following is a general scenerio if the issue:
1. I have 3 objects "Parent", "Child", and "Agency".
2. I create a new "Agency" and persist it using em.persist(agency).
3. The "Parent" object contains a OneToMany relation to "Child" and "Child" has a reference to "Agency".
4. So I do something like:
agency = new Agency();
em.persist(agency);
child = new Child();
child.setAgency(agency);
parent = new Parent();
parent.addChild(child);
em.persist(parent);
I have Cascade.ALL on the OneToMany relation so I expect that persisting the parent will also persist the child. This part works, however for some reason the agency is trying to be saved and that's were I get the error.
Now if agency was not already persisted, everything works fine. Parent, Child, and Agency all get persisted.
Since there isn't really a way to merge() agency how do I handle this issue?
I don't really understand all the clones and how merge works, so I don't have a good grasp on how cascade works itself through the objects? I did step through the code in the debugger and it simply wants to register agency as a new object even though the primary key is set.

Hello,
I believe what you are showing and trying is just confirming what I mentioned in my previous post. The specification does not allow you to persist a detached entity and forces an exception to be thrown. When you have a detached entity referenced through a relation marked with cascade persist and then call persist on the owning object, it is the same thing as calling persist on the detached object directly - you will get an exception. If the relation is not marked cascade persist, and agency is new then you definetely will get an exception - without the provider finding out and throwing its own exception, the child object would have tried to insert a foreign key to an agency that doesn't exist.
Not marking the relation as cascade persist or using find will only work if the agency exists and was previously persisted. The problem then you mention is that you might have made changes to the detached agency or it may not already exist - the JPA provider only finds changes made to managed objects. Merge can be used when you do not know if it exists, and it will pickup changes made to the detached object.
Solutions are:
1) agency = em.merge(agency);
child.setAgency(agency);
or 2) em.merge(parent);
Solution 1 might be more efficient, since merge on new objects could require more resources than persist due to existence checking requirements.
Best Regards,
Chris

'The monitor profile "LCD color management and conversion" PSE6

Does anyone know how to correct this? I can find older posts but they date back too far. Where they say to go and what do has changed since.
The monitor profile LCD color management and conversion appears to be defective. Please rerun your monitor calibration software.
Everything dispalys in a cream color background and nothing prints correct color. I have PSE6.

todls1:
I'm guessing this message appears when you start the PSE6 Editor?
If so, what you should select is Ignore, and check the box to not show the message again. (Alternatively, you can remove the profile. If you wish to do this, tell me what edition of Windows you have and I can provide instructions.)
Essentially, you have a profile installed for your computer's monitor, either installed automatically by Windows Updates, it came with your computer, or it was installed with a driver (or piece of software) for your monitor.
This type of profile is "generic" and does not contain color calibration information.
Elements looks for profiles assigned to your monitor, because if the profile was created as part of a color calibration process, then that profile contains information that will help Elements to ensure that the colors you see on the screen are accurate.
Color is a complicated topic, especially when you introduce computer monitors, but suffice it to say that each monitor has various things that can make it display the same image in a way that's different from every other monitor. These things can include age of the monitor, the specific settings (e.g. contrast, brightness, etc.) of the monitor, and the lighting conditions in the room. When you calibrate a monitor using specialized calibration hardware/software, the calibration software creates a profile that tells programs on your computer (like Elements) about all these factors and how to compensate for them to ensure everything is displayed correctly.
Sorry for what may seem a long-winded explanation, but just understand that using the "generic" profile instead of one created by specialized calibration equipment has caused colors to appear incorrectly in Elements and are likely contributing to the problem when printing. This is why you should select Ignore.

I need help understanding how the Apple components integrate to create a system across all my devices?

I need help understanding how the Apple components connect to create a whole system across all my devices?
Is there a resource that describes current system and associated functionality?
For example:
Buy A, B, C to achieve "X"
You will need:
an internet provider which supports <specs>
add D to achieve "Y"
You will need:
an internet provider which supports <specs>
add "E" to achieve "Z"
You will need:
an internet provider which supports <specs>
For example, I am looking at the Gen 6 Airport extreme. For intended performance do I need broadband? if so what are the specs, or will basic internet service suffice? Do I need the internet provider's modem or does the Airport extreme replace that? And then I think, if I am doing this, I should also look at Apple TV....What do I need and Why? Then I look at the New Desk top coming out in the fall, and I think well, if I wait and get this, what does this component do for the system, and what becomes redundant? What does this awesome desktop do for my ability to sit and use a new macbook air when I travel or sit on the couch in my PJs?
If there was a place that plainly stated "if you buy the new dektop you can configure a system including only these components and achieve <this result> and by adding <additional components> you will achieve this result.
I have been to the genius store a few times, but I come out of there more confused unless I have SPECIFIC questions or already know what to buy.
A "System Configuration App" would be a really great sales tool--Just saying.

I have no idea what "fully optimized" means.
No Apple device will let you watch broadcast TV. The Apple TV is a good option for watching streaming TV from iTunes, NetFlix and Hulu. If you want to watch from other sources, you may need to look at other devices.
Any Mac computer or iPad will allow you to surf the web.
What business software?
Time Capsule is a good option for back ups.
Update what across all devices?
For accessing documents from all devices, a service like Dropbox is your best bet.
I have no idea what "step as far away from an internet provider as possible" means. If you want Internet access, you need an Internet provider.
Lighting fast speed for what? Processor? The specs are listed for all devices in the Online Store. Internet? We're back to the service provider.
Technology changes. The only way to keep pace with it beyond a couple of years is to buy new stuff.
The bottom line is you need to look at the specs for devices availble and at your budget and decide what best meets your needs. If you are unable to do that on your own, there are lot of technology consultants out there who will, for a fee, look at your exact situation, make recommendations and even handle the purchase and set up. Perhaps that would be the best route for you.
Best of luck.

The Ultimate Guide to Resolving Profile and Device Manager Issues

The following article also applies to issues after re-setting the severs' hostname. It also applies to situations where re-setting the Code Signing Certifictateas described by Apple has not resolved the issue.
Hello,
I have been plagued with Profile Manager and Device Manager issues since day one.
I would like to share my experience and to suggest a way how to resolve issues such as device cannot be enrolled or Code Signing Certificate not accepted.
I shall try to be as brief as possible, just giving an overview of the steps that resolved my issues. The individual steps have been described elsewhere in this forum. For users who have purchased commercial SSL certs the following may not apply.
In my view many of these issues are caused by missing or faulty certificates. So let us first touch on the very complex matter of certificates.
Certificates come in many flavours such as CA (Certificate Authority), Code Signing Certificate, S/MIME and Server Identification.
(Mountain?) Lion Server creates a so-called Intermediate CA certificate (IntermediateCA_hostname_1") and Server Identification Certificate ("hostname") when it installs first. This is critical for the operation of many server functionalities, including Open Direcory. These certs together with the private/public keys can be found in your Keychain. Profile and Device Manager may need a Code Signing Certificate.
The most straightforward way to resolve the Profile Manaher issues is in my view to reset the server created certicates.
The bad news is that this procedure involves quite a few steps and at least 2 hours of your precious time because it means creating a fresh Direcory Master.
I hope that I have not forgotten to mention an important step. Readers' comments and addenda are welcome.
I shall outline a sensible strategy:
1. Clone your dysfunctional server to an external harddrive (SuperDuper does a reliable job)
2. Start the server fom the clone and shut down ALL services.
3. It may be sensible to set up a root user access.
4. Back-up all user data such as addess book, calendar and other data that you *may* need to set up your server.
5. Open Workgroup Manager and export all user and workgroup accounts to the drive that you using to re-build your server (it may cause problems if you back-up to an external drive).
6. Just in case you may also want to back-up the Profile Manager database and erase user profiles:
In Terminal (this applies to Lion Server - paths may be diferent in Mountain Lion !)
Backup: sudo pg_dump -U _postgres -c device_management > $HOME/device_management.sql
Erase database:
sudo /usr/share/devicemgr/backend/wipeDB.sh
7. Note your Directory (diradmin) password for later if you want to re-use it.
8. Open Open Server Admin and demote OD Master to Standalone Directory.
9. In Terminal delete the old Certificate Authority
sudo rm -R /var/root/Library/Application\ Support/Certificate\ Authority/
This step is crucial because else re-building you OD Master will fail.
9. Go back to Server Admin and promote the Standalone Directory to OD Master. You may want to use the same hostname.
10. When the OD Master is ready click on Overview and check that the LDAP and Keberos Realm reflect your server's hostname.
11. Go back to Workgroup Manager and re-import users and groups.
NOTE: passwords are not being exported. I do not know how to salvage user passwords. (Maybe passwords can be recovered by re-mporting an OD archive - comments welcome! ).
12. Go to Server App and reset passwords and (not to forget) user homefolder locations, in particular if you want to login from a network account!
If the home directory has not been defined you cannot login from a network account.
13. You may now want to restore Profile Manager user profiles in Terminal. Issue the following commands:
sudo serveradmin stop devicemgr
sudo serveradmin start postgres
sudo psql -U _postgres -d device_management -f $HOME/device_management.sql
sudo serveradmin start devicemgr
14. You can now switch back on your services, including Profile Manager.
In Profile Manager you may have to configure Device Management. This creates a correct Code Signng Certicate.
15. Check the certificate settings in Server App -> Hadware -> Settings-> SSL Certificates.
16. Check that Apple Push Notifications are set.(you easily check if they are working later)
17. You may want to re-boot OS Server from the clone now.
18. After re-boot open Server App and check that your server is running well.
19. Delete all profiles in System Preferences -> Profiles.
19. Login to Profile Manager. You should have all users and profiles back. In my experience devices have to be re-enrolled before profiles can be pushed and/or devices be enrolled. You may just as well delete the displayed devices now.
20. Grab one of your (portable) Macs that you want to enrol and go to (yourhostname)/mydevices and install the server's trust profile. The profile's name should read "Trust Profile for...) and underneath in green font "Verified".
21. Re-enrol that device. At this stage keep your finger's crossed and take a deep breath.
22. If the device has been successfully enrolled you may at last want to test if pushing profiles really works. Login to Profile Manager as admin, select the newly enrolled device. Check that Automatic Push is enabled (-> Profile -> General). Create a harmless management profile such as defining the dock's position on the target machine. (Do not forget to click SAVE at the end - this is easily missed here). If all is well Profile Manager will display an active task (sending) and the dock's position on the target will have changed in a few seconds if you are on a LAN (Note: If sending seems to take forever: check on the server machine and/or on your router that the proper ports are open and that incoming data is not intercepted by Little Snitch or similar software).
Note: if you intend to enrol an Apple iPhone you may first need to install the proper Apple Configuration software.
Now enjoy Profile and Device Manager !

Twistan

HI
1. In Action profiles, logon to system and recheck correcion are available in action definition as well in condition configuration and the schedule condition is also maintained. but the display is not coming(i.e in the worklist this action is not getting displayed).
You can check the schedule condition for the action and match the status values...or try recreating the action with schedule condition again....for customer specific ....copy the standard aciton with ur zname and make a schedule condition and check the same.
2, In suppport team of incident when i give individual processor it throwing a warning that u r not the processor. but when i give org unit it is working perfectly. Could anyone guide on this.
You need to have the empolyee role for BP ..goto BP and got here dropdown for ur bp and choose role Employee and then enter ur userid
also make sure that u have the message processing role
Hope it clarifies ur doubt and resolve ur prob

Vista 64 bit and CS4 and color management

This is a question about Vista 64 bit and CS4 and color management. I scan 4x5 film and sometimes end up with up to or even bigger than 1 GB files. Obviously that needs as much memory as possible. Windows XP is limited in this regard and I am in the market for a new speedy computer which won't force me to stay at a snail's pace. In this month's Shutterbug, David Brooks in his Q&A column says to avoid Vista for color management reasons, but offers no explanation or support for his opinion. He implies one should wait for Windows 7 for some unstated reason. With a calibrated monitor and printer and Photoshop controlling color files sent to the printer, why would Vista be any different or worse than XP? Is he on to something or just pontificating? Does anyone know any reliable info about Windows 7 that would make it worth waiting for?
Thanks.

Photoshop has direct access to max 3.2gb
On Mac OS X, PS CS4 can use up to 8 GB of RAM, but only directly accesses up to 3.5 GB. (Figures quoted from kb404440.) In using PS CS4 on Mac OS, though, direct Memory Usage maxes out at 3 GB even. If you set usage to 100% (3 GB), then plug-ins (including Camera Raw and filters), as well as actions and scripts, can access RAM above that 3 GB to between about 512 MB and about 768 MB total (seems to vary depending on which filters et al that you are using), leaving the rest up to 4 GB for the Mac OS. If you have more than 4 GB, then the amount of RAM above 4 GB is used by PS as a scratch disk. This increases performance significantly for most things because writing to and reading from the hard drive is much slower than doing so with RAM.
I haven't done the testing for actual RAM usage and such for PS CS4 on Vista 64, and Adobe's documentation is very much lacking in detail, but, based on the statement "If you use files large enough to need more than 4 GB of RAM, and you have enough RAM, all the processing you perform on your large images can be done in RAM, instead of swapping out to the hard disk." from kb404439, it seems that PS would be using RAM in very much the same way as I described above for Mac OS, except that the scratch disk usage in RAM wouldn't be limited to 8 GB (instead to how much you have installed). Has anyone done any performance/load testing to know for sure? I didn't see any such studies published, but I am curious if one has been done.
I will agree that there is a definite performance advantage when using PS CS4 (64-bit) on Vista 64, which I've experienced, especially when working very large compositions.
My initial recommendation to the OP to use Mac was based upon reading those articles about bad color management. As I stated before, I have never experienced that problem, and clearly the views of all that have posted here so far indicate that the problem may not be a real issue. (Perhaps this David Brooks fellow and Steve Upton both like to mess with their computers and broke something in Windows?)

Please help me!--rendering makes the images or video blurry (very pixelated) deteriorates the image Adobe Premier Elements 13 need help! .jpg and mpeg images, but I have never "rendered" before since I got APE 13 about 6 weeks ago. I am desperate for assistance!

That's going to be a ridiculous waste of money and energy.
First of all, the current ATI drivers don't support multiple GPUs, so at the moment even a single 4870X2 would be only a 'normal' 4870 (which is quite a speed beast already). GFX drivers evolve rapidly, so things might look different next month, but when it comes to Linux and hardware there's one Golden Rule: stay away from the newest stuff and wait for proper support to get coded.
I also wonder what power supply could possibly cope with the differences between idle and full load; that's way beyond 400W. But then, I'm one of those "quiet&green" types where >100W idle is already a bit much.
I kind of understand that you want to get it done and not worry about hardware for the next 10 years or so, but that's simply not how the hardware world works and never did. At least not for the average consumer.

EXR and RPF rules for alpha and color management?

How can I change the interpretation rules so that EXRs always import with straight alphas? They always import with Premulti now.
Also, I want to always turn off color management (Preserve RGB) for RPFs. (I use RPFs for my motion vector passes and color management always throws off the blur with ReelSmart)

How can I change the interpretation rules so that EXRs always import with straight alphas? They always import with Premulti now.
AE is just obeying the original EXR spec, which suggests all colors are premultiplied. If the Alpha channel is not specifically tagged as unpremultiplied, that's what AE will use.
Also, I want to always turn off color management (Preserve RGB) for RPFs. (I use RPFs for my motion vector passes and color management always throws off the blur with ReelSmart)
Similar to the previous, I'd say. The fault is probably with the program not creating a linear motion vector pass in the first place and thus the pass having a Gamma bias or else you wouldn't see those shifts. And I wouldn't use RPF... If you render your RGB to EXR, you can do so for the motion pass as well. EXRs per spec store colors linearly, which might also help to avoid your issues.
Anyway, I'm not aware of globally changing any of that from the AE end. As I was trying to explain, the program is more or less behaving correctly based on assuming the files you feed it comply with certain standards....

This is a second try to get help. I need help to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop cc 2014

Bridge is not working well, I need to reinstall Photoshop cc 2014 . Someone from Communities was suppose to help me.

Hi John,
I used the chat "Creative chat support" this afternoon at around 14:40
and the person, Karthik M , gave me a link to Technical Support. I
guess he could not help me, but he said he understood the issue.   With
the link "Help, Adobe Installation problems",   I will follow the
instructions to clean ps cc2014 with CCleaner and reinstall the app.
It looks quite complicated but I will give it a try and hopefully succeed.
You have to understand when reading my previous messages, the issue is
no longer "Retreiving Photoshop CC" but reinstalling Phoshop 2014 to try
to repair Bridge.
Thanks for caring,
Suzanne Lanthier

I need help to find and open a job app that I exported, was able to fill out and sign and saved and now can't open it? What did I do wrong?

What file format did you export it to?

Training Need - TN in Training and Event Management

Hi
Did any one worked on Training Need (TN) in Training and event management? I have the below question.
For France there is a legal requirement to capture some 1.6 % of the employee annual gross salary towards training cost. So where to record the training cost of the employee in Training and event management and is there any link with payroll.
Logically it sounds as it does. but where and how is it connected with payroll.
Please revert if you know the solution.
Brs
Kenu.
