Nikon Adobe RGB vs Lightroom Adobe RGB - help me out

As a part of a general color management makeover on my system I've been looking at the softproffing in lightroom. I'm puzzled by the fact that a D800 RAW shot in Adobe RGB (i.e. the color space on the camera is set to Adobe RGB ) shows out of Gamut in Lightroom with a destination color space of Adobe RGB. The picture control in LR is set to that set on the Camera - Neutral. I'm also puzzled by the fact that the Monitor  (also set to Adobe RGB and profiled for Adobe RGB ) shows Gamut warnings as well under soft proofing. I was expecting that a RAW shot in Adobe RGB would not show gamut warnings for the same color space set as a destination.
Where am I going wrong ?

"The color space you have set on the camera has no effect on the raw file that will only affect the jpeg file created by the camera and also the embedded thumbnail."
Ah ! that explains it ! So in lightroom the raw file is in the ProPhoto space and in some cases will exceed the Monitor Gamut. I guess I can test this by shooting a test JPG with Adobe RGB specified & import it to Lightroom to see if the Monitor Gamut is exceeded.
"In addition "Adobe RGB " is a working color space and not a "Monitor Profile" you need to use a hardware device like i1 Eye One to create an appropriate monitor profile."
Thanks, I'm aware of this - I have in fact produced a monitor profile using a Spyder 4 - the Monitor is supposed to cater for Adobe RGB & I have profiled it as such. My confusion arose from thinking that the Nikon would apply the Adobe RGB space to the RAW file.
Many thanks for clearing this up.

  • Just bought Lightroom 6 through B&H Photo Video online and now Adobe says it is "unable to validate this serial number for Lightroom".  Any help for me here folks?

    Just bought Lightroom 6 through B&H Photo Video online and now Adobe says it is "unable to validate this serial number for Lightroom".  Any help for me here folks?

    If you want to buy the product Lightroom 6.0 from the Adobe Website, then please visit here-
    http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/software._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software _sl_mostpopular.html
    And scroll down to the bottom and spot the Lightroom 6.0 to buy the standalone application.
    You can buy the application as an upgrade or full product (second red box in the screen shot shows the previous version of the software you own and needed to be selected if you are buying the upgrade Lightroom 6.0 ) in case you have the previous version ( Lightroom 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ) serial number registered or noted somewhere.
    Here is the screenshot which might help you in buying the product correctly,
    You can visualize the first red box where you need to select on the drop down to make the purchase as an upgrade product or the full version of the application.
    If you have the qualifying product ( Lightroom 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ), then it would cost you just $79 else $149 in case of full installer.
    Try, it might help you get over the plight of buying the product.
    Thank you so much.

  • How do you get of hold of anyone at Adobe for help?  Cannot download Photoshop CC.

    I could not update Photoshop CC from Creative Cloud desktop or online. I need Raw 8.3 to be compatible with Lightroom.  It is impossible to get a hold of anyone at Adobe for help.  Found their chat link once after much searching, someone finally answered then told me they were closing for the day and to call back the next day.  Could never find the chat link again.  Tried uninstalling PhotoshopCC because I saw that somewhere in the forum but still cannot download Photoshop CC.  Got error code U43M1U49 and said to retry or contact customer support.  Yeah right!  Totally frustrated with Adobe.  Anyone have any suggestions?

    Hi Triste,
    If you're having difficulties getting updates for your tools using the Creative Cloud Desktop app, then you can try downloading them without it by using the direct links for the CC updates on Windows or on Mac OS, for all CC apps.

  • Lightroom 3 - The worst program Adobe has ever put out...

    If anyone cares to read this, I will be the first to say DO NOT UPGRADE!!
    I am spreading the word - facebook, word of mouth, every professional photographer in LA I know, blogs, etc. 
    You gotta raise hell to get changes.
    Lets see if Adobe will do anything about these issues...
    I thought that Adobe created "beta" for a reason - to smooth out all the kinks before they put the disk out. Nope. 
    I have been waiting for them to put out updates on many issues since I purchased the disk a month ago.... Still waiting Adobe!!!
    It is excruciating to watch my photos take literally 4-5 minutes to open.  Even worse, is the time it takes to save from Photoshop CS5 back to Lightroom - I timed 14min. FOR A PHOTO!
    I feel like the old days when I rendered video - went out to get a coffee, and came back to find the spinning of wheel of death still spinning.
    Oh, and I got to talk to India today too! for 3.5 hours - with no resolution to my problems. 
    Susheel accessed my computer remotely  - saw my catalog - sees 73,000 images, and asks "are you a photographer?"  REALLY?!  DId you REALLY just ask me that Susheel??
    Why I HATE Lightroom 3 - let me count the ways:
    1. Adobe closed their tech support in Portland (whom I have spoken to many times, and ALWAYS got my problems resolved.  They always went above & beyond the protocol - and we sit here and wonder why the US economy is crashing), now you get a no-name person in India or in the philippines (who have no extension, no email, not even a direct line so when you sit on a call for 3.5 hours and need to call back you are starting all over again.. Dear Adobe - do we live in 1980?? You are suppose to be a LEADER in technology. 
         I am morally against outsourcing, my artwork is all about the death of american industrial capitalism.  In a time when the US is in crisis, Adobe works on moving things out of the US.  I'm outraged - You can't get someone in the US EVEN IF YOU TRIED!  The best I could do was talk to someone in sales about this - wow. What does that say - American's "look good and sound good to sell our product, but when it comes to something advanced in technology like using the product and trouble shooting, we prefer to use someone with no extension in another country"
    2. They don't offer support for anyone who is running off a network (they expect professionals to be working off their local "c" drive or Mac internal hard drive.  HA!! 
    3. They continued to blame my network - even though my network is running smoothly, has no limitations on access, will open directly into photoshop just fine (and quick!), worked absolutely perfectly in Lightroom 2.... Yeah, it's the network, riiight.
    4. Lightroom 3 is corrupting files when opening into Photoshop CS5 - if I'm lucky enough to open them
    5. When I do get a photograph open, it loses it's filters once saved back into Lightroom (I rate my photos to help me navigate through the masses) - this really is hurting my workflow. When I shoot 800 images in the studio in one day - I DO NOT want to go back and fish around to find the edited version that lost its flag...
    6. I have been promised to get a phone call "sometime next week" since there is no extension I can call back on to move forward.  I'll keep you updated - let you know if Susheel keeps his word.  He couldn't tell me who was going to call me, or when, but he "assures" me it will happen.
         I wont hold my breath

    So the worst programme Adobe ever put out, yet even though you can have a 30 day trial you still went out and brought it...
    Yep, everything is always someone else's fault. It's never because they've made a stupid decision to buy before making absolutely sure that the software will work for them.
    Seems like nobody is prepared to take responsibility for their own actions these days.
    So, by that logic Adobe does not have to take ANY responsibility for pushing this kludge out the door?  Given they had a RC ready almost INSTANTLY after release should be sufficient to show they KNEW they were pushing garbage out the door.  Adobe is indeed responsible for their offering a know buggy product, bugs which CROSS PLATFORMS so it has to be the core code design not the user hardware or anything a given user has done.  Sure some systems might have setups which help make these issues more apparent, but that is on Adobe to deal with as they should publish limitations and known configurations which can potentially induce greater problems...but these entail an admission and accepting responsibility for the original buggy release...btw, release notes used to be where one would find quirks info and how to work around them post system requirements being carved in stone and set to entice the lowest common denomonator user.
    One more thing...LR is marketed not as a PRO TOOL, it is sold as a tool for the average to hobby level photographer.  That is also has huge appeal to the pro market is a happy accidentally-on-purpose thing...but to berate people who don't feel it's their job to troubleshoot a commercial app is completely unreasonable...but anymore the US consumer is the largest beta tester group on the planet...I wonder how our EU counterparts are fairing as ironically, they have stronger consumer protection laws...try pushing a crap product out in the German market...heh-heh, yeah good luck with that.
    Actually I would say this is not the worst software Adobe has ever pushed out the door but perhaps the worst photography software they ever sent as RTM.  Many, many PDF related apps and utils have actually been worse and we won't get into what they have done to Flash and Dreamweaver after that acquisition.  The closest analog I can see if that of what happened to Norton products post Norton being purchased by Symmantec.
    However, I am willing to give Adobe time to address this because they did have the RC ready almost right away.  Should they have done this?  No way, but perhaps the marketing wonks put the company in the position where it had to meet the release date even if issues were discovered and fixes in the pipeline already and it was gonna be a 3-9 week delay before the issues were mostly fixed.  But they did and well, even those who ran the beta, ran the 30-day trial did not find the issues because they simply did not use that part of the program enough for the bugs to manifest their effects to the degree when you the user, realize something odd is happening.
    I too am pissed, beyond belief as I depend on LR for my business, I can, however work around it for a while but I don't make money as a photographer I use photography for my business so the issues, while causing huge levels of frustration, are not fatal....yet...all I know is I don't want to revert to LR2.7 because I have done so much work onLR3/ LR3.2RC already and the tools themselves are indeed superior in LR3.x....when they work and that is the rub.  So many here are telling those with these bugs affecting their income/workflow bought into this to save time and leverage the bestter NR/sharpening and I say much improved adjustment tools.  I don't use the lense profiles at all really so nothing special for me there.
    I would ask a question...I am sure this has been asked and answered but, eh, why not one more time because search is sooooo "haaaard"
    but does this issue affect all file types?  I am shooting DNG but can switch to PEF if needed and convert on import but would rather just shoot DNG.  I am not willing to switch to JPG because if I have to do this I give up too much control on my images, for that I would switch back to LR2.7.
    Also, what versions of Camera RAW were used in the beta and what versions are being used with LR3.  I know I did upgrade to ACR6.2(?) or whatever the most current version.  I understand there are a ton of factors at play in these bugs but I do doubt it's ACR as my old antique PS CS3 version of Photoshop does not have any problems, of course it's using the old version of ACR 4.6(?) again sorry I forget what version exactly but it's trivial and can be determined.
    I like LR because I don't need the advanced features of PS all that often, still PS is a fun tool to have as a backup for the complicated shots though I don't have time to really spend in it as I would like to...
    But in general I guess I am trying to say, Adobe had to know in advance of the RTM original LR3 because they had the RC ready almost instantly.  Of course past releases of LR also had the same experience just the bugs were, well, not as impactful I suppose.  I have been happy with LR since 1.x versions but this version is painful to support...and I as I previously posted I won't screw with Adobe's refund people, likely off-shored staff who get bonuses for talking customers OUT of getting a refund, I will simply file a chargeback with Mastercard...that is why I use it, so I don't have to let companies waste my time wading through their red-tape.  And btw, Adobe knows the customer will WIN any chargeback because this evidence of a known to be defective product was sold to the consumer and the customer even allowed the mfg to remediate the issue only they failed to deliver in a timely fashion.  So, if one is not happy just "go to the mattresses"...use the chargeback hammer.  The bonus is every chargeback granted to the consumer costs the retailer, Adobe in my case, $35 when they lose...

  • How do I get Adobe to help with an installation problem?

    I removed Windows Vista, and installed XP instead. Then tried to install CS3 using the file I downloaded from Adobe 2 years ago. It installed Acrobat, but the other components (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator) failed with “Component not installed.” No error message. Never even asked for my serial number.
    Phoned Adobe support on Sunday: closed.
    Phoned again on Monday. Told to run CSClean. Did not solve problem. Phoned back. Swapped around departments (2 hours total on hold.) Promised they would email a link to download the installation file again. No email sent.
    Phoned again Tuesday. More hours on hold. More promised link. Never sent.
    Phoned again Wednesday. More hours on hold. Finally given a zip file link. Downloaded it 3 times, using different software (browser, FTP client.) I received the exact number of bytes on Adobe’s server, but the file is “not a valid archive” — rejected both by Windows itself and by WinZip.
    We’ve now lost 3 days work, and cancelled clients for Thurs as well.

  • PSE 9 only works with old AIR version on Win 7 x64. Adobe please help.

    I'm hoping that Adobe can jump in and help here as there are some real versioning issues with the components that PSE 9 uses.  I've made a number of posts in the Adobe AIR forum (while I was figuring this out) and have exchanged with Adobe resources regarding my problems with Adobe AIR on Win 7 x64. They are still looking into it.
    PSE 9.0 comes with
         Adobe AIR 1.5.3.9130,
         Adobe Community Help 3.2.1.650 (an AIR app), and
         Adobe Photoshop.com Inspiration Browser 3.07 (an AIR app)
    That  Adobe AIR 1.5.3.9130 is an old version of AIR.  Since then there have been production releases 2.0.2, 2.0.3, and the latest 2.0.4.  If you upgrade to ANY of those Adobe AIR 2.x versions on your Win 7 x64 system, ALL your Adobe AIR apps will stop working.
    Adobe Community Help 3.2.1.650 is an out-of-date version and it continually nags you to update to the newer version.  If you do that, the install will first upgrade Adobe AIR to 2.0.4 and then upgrade Help.  Help will no longer work and all Adobe AIR apps will not work.
    I have installed and uninstalled PSE 9 about 25 times, I have installed and ununinstalled different versions of AIR over 50 times, etc. etc. to come to these conclusions.  I have tested Adobe AIR 2.0.2, 2.0.3 and 2.0.4 and NONE of them work on Win 7 x64.
    I'd really like someone from the Adobe PSE team to look into this.  I don't have time to spend hours on the phone with support.  I have described the problem and can offer more details as necessary.
    Thanks . . . . Brian

    Ankush,
    Thank for your two responses.  I have also received some more emails from Chris Campbell around AIR in particular so I'll try to work with him first.
    Thanks you for confirming that you do not see any errors after installing the updates.  Also that Adobe Help and Inspiration Browser both work after updating AIR to 2.0.4.
    I will answer your questions for now though:
    1. You asked:
    Have you tried this:
    Uninstall PSE 9, PRE 9 and any other CS5 Adobe application.
    Uninstall Adobe AIR.
    Install PSE 9 and run the updates of Adobe AIR and now use the applications?
    If it still gives error, uninstall Adobe AIR and then install the 2.0.4 version directly which is available on Adobe.com.
    What happends now?
         Yes, I have done all of these combinations a few times without success.
    2. The directories for Adobe Help and PIB look fine.  They are
        C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Help
        C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\PhotoshopdotcomInspirationBrowser
    As I said, Chris Campbell has asked me for info and to run some tests.  I'll let you know how it works out.
    Thanks . . . . Brian

  • Adobe CEF Helper multiple instances causing problems using newest CC  1.5.1.369

    I just reinstalled all CC and Apps after a clean refresh wipe of PC.  Within one week I am having several crashes and lockups and other strange behavior while using Photoshop, Indesign and other apps.
    The lockups have been getting progressively worse, starting with very short delays while switching between apps or even switching to desktop to mouse click a file icon there which seemed almost like my machine would get focused on whatever app I was in and would not immediately release when I switched to do other things.  Now the lockups are getting longer.  Photoshop is also not fully closing down.  So later if I reopen it, a photoshop process is still running in Task Manager and I must force it down before I can open a new file in a new instance of photoshop. 
    Today I had one complete crash of PS, as well as some strange lockup when I had two small ad files open.  We are talking 1/6th page ads - small.  I had them open side by side when it locks up and only thing I can move is the mouse curser which has changed to an "unallowed" icon (circle with slash). Rest of application and tools were locked up.  In one of the files it would let me click a layer in the file and it would jump around the page.   I checked Task manager and multiple CEF helpers were running around 30-50,000K private memory working set, and one of the CEF helpers was fluctuating between 13-20% or so of CPU usage.  I immediately ended that service and photoshop started working again and I was able to save the files.   I'm still noticing other problems like not being able to select multiple items at one time to copy/paste seen both in Indesign and Adobe acrobat pdf files.
    I remember hearing about this issue long ago and checked the forums.  Low and behold the long time Adobe CEF Helper problem thread was closed by a staffer in Feb, 2014, stating the following:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1235395?start=120&tstart=0

    If you are experiencing difficulties with the Adobe CEF Helper please post a new discussion with the specifics of the behavior you are encountering.
    I am having problems with the CEF helper and I have CC 1.5.1.369 as far as I can tell, on a fresh install a week old.
    System:
    Windows prof 7 sp1 64bit, 32gb ram, SSD main drive and mechanical data drive
    Items added to this PC are autodesk products and Adobe CC Apps.   I don't have a number of addons for CC apps like photoshop, just one plugin for photoshop called Geographic Imager.
    Hopefully there is something more subtle I can try besides wiping my PC and reinstalling all the apps and settings again.  A pc refresh and install this time with up to date CC and Apps was meant to fix all my broken file associations issues from previous updates - which it did.  But was hoping not to end up with a dreaded CEF helper issue.  Any help would be appreciated as this seems to be getting worse daily.
    Other note, I turned off Syncing of settings when I first started noticing issues.  Haven't tried much else besides ending CEF helper services when forced to.

    I just want to note that my recommendations led my clients to purchase more than 5 licences of FMIS/AMIS througt the time.
    As I see how low is the passion to react to any problem on Adobe side, I would have probably changed my mind.
    This is really pain in the *** as any call to adobe official contact (taken on mind that to find one is a big quest by itself) lead just to reply "pay nasty amount for our consultancy Sir!" and it does not look any better here....
    I am no novice on FMS/AMS platform, working with it more than 6 years throught many projects and I would not ask for some stupid questions which could be solved just by looking to documentation or could be solved by some performance eperience.
    I am really upset for this :/

  • Error message in trying to use local content in Adobe Community Help of Flash Builder

    Hi,
    I have set my Adobe Community Help application preferences of Flash Builder to 'Display local content only'.to Yes.
    I also disabled my internet connection to use local help content only.
    I get the following error message when trying to access any of the links from Help home page.
    To view the requested page, connect to the Internet or deselect "Display Local Help content only" in Preferences.
    I understand this is due to all the links point online HTTP urls.
    But why cannot the local help content be accessed when it is already downloaded to local and the 'Display local content only' option is set to Yes?
    This saves me a lot ot time otherwise using Adobe Community Help is painful even for a short period of time.
    Thanks,
    Ram Manoj Kongara.

    Hi, Ram -
    To help troubleshoot your problem, can you please do the following:
    In the Adobe Community Help application, go to Edit > Preferences.
    Select Local Content.
    The list of Help packages downloaded locally appear. Make sure that the status of every Help packages reads “Current”. If the status of a Help package reads  "Out-of-Date”, select that Help package, and click Update to download the latest Help package. Note that to do this, you have to be connected to the Internet. Once you fully download the Help packages to your desktop, you can access Help offline.
    One other thing that I would want you to check is the Adobe Community Help Client version that you are using. To check that, in the Adobe Community Help application, go to File > About Adobe Help. The build version should be 3.2.0.610.
    Let me know if this helps. If the issue still persists, we can investigate further.
    Thanks,

  • Multiple Adobe CEF Helper, Conhost, icalcs.exe in Windows 8.1 Autostart

    While checking some autostart apps, that I could possibly deactivate, I found something strange.
    There are multiple entries for "Adobe CEF helper", "Conhost" and "icacls.exe". All grouped under the Adobe Creative Cloud.
    On my other machine, Conhost and icalcs.exe don't appear at all and Adobe CEF helper only once.
    They do not noticeably create any errors, however, it's not feeling right. I don't know exactly when these entries appeared for first time. The device is pretty new and I just installed a bunch of work related software like Office 365, Adobe CC, Chrome, ...
    When installing Filezilla, some bloatware/adware was automatically installed on the system (blame sourceforge, see download comments over there). Currently I'm testing Kaspersky Internet Security, 30 days trial. But I don't think none of them is to blame.
    I would personally like to avoid reinstalling Adobe CC, because it lasts forever.
    Q: What might have caused these entries? Should I correct it? And how should I correct it?
    System: Windows 8.1 64bit on an fairly new ASUS GL550JK.
    Thanks.

    Update: I reinstalled the whole system and it still shows up.
    Directly after the installation of Adobe CC, only Adobe CC showed up in the Autostart menu. Even after a restart still nothing (and the entry still had "boot time - no measured"). After the boot time was measured, same subentries as above appeared.

  • Update Adobe AIR help content without necessity of installation for users???

    Hello there,
    I want to make our manuals available as Adobe AIR help applications. Unfortunately for our users it is not possible to regularly install these applications. Therefore I decided to generate a help viewer as AIR file and help content as RHA file ("help content only" ssl option). So admins only once have to install an initial AIR file. Afterwards users are able to replace help content to update help files.
    I proceeded in a similar way as described here:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/techcomm/2010/07/merging_multiple_helps_in_air_help_output.html
    In principle this is a good solution - but here is my problem:
    Help content itself already consists of different projects (merged projects). Merged projects unfortunately cannot be generated with "help content only" ssl option.
    Anyone has got an idea how to satisfy all my conditions:
    - Customers only once have to install an AIR file
    - Afterwards help content can be updated by replacing files (without installation)
    - Help content itself contains merged projects .
    Generate different outputs (RHA files) for the merged projects is not a possibility. The merged projects with regard to content belong to ONE single manual - I'm not talking about different manuals. So users should be able to search the whole manual and so on ...).
    Thank you so much in anticipation!
    Melanie

    It has always irritated me that the blog you refer to uses the term "merged help". It is not merged help, it is simply a collection of outputs where the user can select the one they want.
    My site does have instructions for a true merged AIR Help output but that will not achieve your objective of one install. Sorry but I don't think what you want can be achieved.

    The method is the same for Rh10.

    Installed: 2.5.1.17730
    Update: 3.3.0.3670
    Everytime it fails to install saying I need to contact the administrator. Well, that´s me . Does anybody know what to do?
    Kind regards,
    Charles

    Hi Charles:  hmm... this is definitely an issue on the AIR side.   Have you checked out the troubleshooting doc for AIR installations here?

    Also, there is a dedicated forum for troubleshooting AIR intsallations here:
    http://forums.adobe.com/community/air/installation
    Would you like me to move this thread over there for you?  Or would you prefer to post this question to the experts over there directly?
    Sorry I can't do more to help!
