Normal colors are black and white when drawn or placed.

Change the color mode of your document from BitMap or Grayscale to a color mode (RGB, CMYK, or LAB).

  • Why are my duotone images turning black and white when put in indesign?

    why are my duotone images turning black and white when put in indesign?
    I have been playing duo and montotone images into indesing with no trouble. Then all of a sudden as I placew them they go black and whitre. I have tried everything from re saving, re making in photoshop and differant colours et5c. But nothing seems to wrok. The images already in my document arew fine it is just new ones. If someone could help that would be great

    Can you start a new document and then load one of the duotones known to be good in the working file and have it correct? If so, try one of the duotones known to be bad in the working document in the new file. Does it work?
    If no to either suggestion, can you share one of the images known to be good and one known to be bad? ZIP 'em up and upload to dropbox and plop a link here. Or, to keep the file sizes down, you can quickly make a new set and provide those.
    As well, the ID version and OS info would probably be helpful.
    Take care, Mike

  • PSE 8 coloring a black and white image

    Okay, so I downloaded a free trial of PSE 8, so my experience with it is limited, which may contribute to my problem. I've watched tutorials on how to add color to a black and white photo using the paintbrush tool, though I haven't watched one for PSE 8.
    I'll make a new layer, paint part of the picture, and then add another layer. But when I click a different color to paint with, it changes the color of what I already painted, even though I'm on a different layer.
    Also when I tried to just save the image with one part painted, it didn't save it, and the image looked as it did originally.
    Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

    Hi,
    Are you using the right tool to paint on a layer?
    For coloring a black and white image, you need to save different areas of your image on a different layer and then use either Paint brush or a Paint bucket tool.
    It seems that you are selecting a wrong tool. For selecting Brush, press B.
    Then try painting on one part of the image and then go to the the color swatch present at the end of the tools panel on the left as :
    Now click on the foreground color swatch(on the top) to change the color with which you want to paint.This will not change the color of other layers on changing the color.
    Cheers

  • Trying to update and my nano screen goes from color to black and white...

    Last time this happened I lost all of the information on my ipod.
    I was trying to get my newly purchased music from itunes to my nano. I couldn't. The help sections told me to update my ipod. I'm currently trying to update with 2006-03-23 and the screen still says "initializing" and actually as I type this the screen that says initializing appears frozen (although I've learned apple stuff is weird because it appears frozen but it's not). How long should this take? Is there something I'm doing wrong? Why does my ipod screen go from color to black and white? Do I need to redo anything? Do I need to reset my nano?
    Please help with the ******** mac user (I've always used Windows and I am lost in the mac world apparently when it comes to ipods)

    Can you get the exact wording for that error? Is it can't mount iPod?
    Also, make sure iTunes is up to date...

    Finally, make sure your iPod's battery is charged up.

  • How can I color a black and white imported jpeg?

    I am new to Illustrator, and have been watching MANY videos, but just cannot seem to figure out how to color the B&W photo I imported into Illustrator CC. Do I need to do something in Photoshop first? Am I missing a step? I was able to trace the image but from there I am lost. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    How can I color a black and white imported jpeg?
    In case you don't want to trace it first:
    -> it needs to real Greyscale. Not just desaturated RGB
    -> Do not save it via Save for Web in Photoshop.

  • My iPhone 6 went from color to black and white

    My iPhone 6 went from color to black and white.  How do I get back to color?

    Of course it's not the quick fix lol. Sorry that didn't work for you, that is the only setting I'm aware that would cause that behavior. Hopefully someone else will assist if they know of another way that may happen. The next thing I would recommend is backing up the iPhone and then doing a reset.
    Since you have an iPhone 6 Plus it is most likely still under warranty. If you have time you could try reaching out to Apple support directly by going to there support page, linked below, and clicking "Get Started".
    https://www.apple.com/support/contact/
    If there are any other important details, like it only occurs in a specific app, feel free to include those in this post as it may help others to figure out what happened.

  • My iMac screen suddenly turn black and white when I'm in fullscreen mode. What could be the cause of this problem?

    Hi, once in a while the screen on my 5K imac turns black and white when I'm on youtube watching videos in fullscreen mode. It also exits the fullscreen mode automatically from one second to the next and a warning pops up saying how I can exit the fullscreen mode. Does anyone have an idea why this happens and if this is a software or hardware problem?

    I'm using a Dell laptop with Windows 7. I've set the resolution to 1024x768, though the maximum resolution on this can go as high as 1366x768. So this is a problem that no one has been able to figure out? I've ran lots of other Flash-based applications that went fullscreen with no problem, so I'm wondering what other methods there are to try, if possible.

    Hi JasperNM,
    You may access a card within the cart reader by mapping a network drive to access it, then you may transfer the fies to your Mac.
    First locate the printer IP address as following:
    Follow these steps to print a Wireless Network Test Report, the IP address will be listed within that report:
    On the control panel, press the Setup button ( ).
    Press the Right Arrow button ( ) to scroll to Network Setup , and then press the OK button.
    Press the OK button to select Print Network Settings .
    Press the Right Arrow button ( ) to scroll to Wireless Test Report , and then press the OK button. The Wireless Network Test Report prints.
    Now map a network driver by following the steps below:
    Click the Finder icon on your Mac.
    Click the Go menu.
    Click on Connect to Server.
    In the Server Address field enter “smb://ipaddress of the printer” and click on Connect.
    You will be prompted to enter the password. leave it as is and click on Connect.
    The Memory card will be mounted as a disk in the Finder.

  • Equium A80 - Black and white when plugging into PAL TV

    I know this seems to be a common problem but I have searched this forum and it seems the soloution is to select PAL or a screen refresh rate of 50Hz.
    My Equium a80 has no option for PAL and the only screen refresh rate is 60Hz.
    Can anyone help?? Please!

    Hi
    I assume you have connected the notebook with TV and now the pictures on TV are black and white. In my opinion its not a hardware fault and also not a issue of 60 Hz display settings.
    How did you connect the notebook with TV?
    Some of TV units have option for S-VHS activation. If your TV doesnt support that you can use a Cinch-cable to connect the notebook on the TV.

  • IMac screen flashes black and white when returning to top sites or screen saver

    iMac screen flash black and white when returning to top sites or before sleep...any ideas why?

    Howdy OatsaMae,
    It sounds like your screen is flashing unexpectedly on you for some reason. I would recommend this section from the following article to help you get that resolved, named:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC. 
    Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • When i print from the web pictures are black and white not color

    Having trouble with printing from web the pictures are not color on;y black and white. Ink levels are fine and I have run cleaning and aligning tools. What other solutions am I missing?

    I have tried 100%, AutoZoom, Page width,page fit and actual size and they are all the same size. About 2/3s the size it should be. My printer is set correctly
    and I also reset the printer in msconfig as suggested by another helper. It changed to default and this has not helped. Do I need to reset the msconfig file back to user?

  • Making pictures that are black and white but still have color someplace(s)

    Is there a way in aperture to make pictures black and white but still leave color on some objects. for example, having a picture of someone holding a glass of red wine and having everything except the wine black and white?

    A couple of ways this can be done
    - non destructively:
    Use the Color adjustment to reduce the saturation of all the colors you dont want,
    and leave only the saturation of the saturation of the color you do want.
    Use the Ranges to more selectively choose the right color you want to leave.
    - destructively:
    Use the Dodge&Burn plug-in from Apple.
    Set the brush to Desaturate, choose its strength and size appropriately.
    Then just desaturate all the area's that need to be desaturated.
