PDF Colors Keep Changing

I have a project I have done in InDesign that needs to be sent to the printer. It has no errors and the colors are in CMYK. I have exported it as a PDF to Adobe Acrobat, and when I open it on my computer the colors are fine, but when I email the PDF or save it to a disk the colors are different. I have tried everything that I know of and can't seem to get it fixed. PLEASE HELP!!!

You say the colours are differerent. Do you mean on the same computer or a different computer?
What software are you viewing it in - is it the same, is one in a browser...?

  • Calendar colors keeping changing to purple

    one specific calendar keeps changing by itself to purple. even when i change it back to the color i want, it goes directly back to purple. this happens on my ipad and when accessing icloud on my mac book

    It seems that my green work calendar is now purple as well.
    In the past work was a light green and personal was a slightly different shade of green.  Now it is purple, not my favorite color but it is distinct.  It would be nice to pick you own colors
    I am an ical user,  rarely do I sign in using icloud via the net however this is how all my devices are linked
    This happened a while back and then reverted, if Apple would just have some notices of this at least we would know there is nothing wrong.  I am getting concerned that my data is not safe !

  • Default for opening pdf files keeps changing back to 'save file' after I set it to open in firefox

    Since upgrading to the latest Firefox version, my options for opening adobe pdf files have changed. I set it to 'use Adobe Acrobat in Firefox', it works absolutely fine, then some time over the next few days it changes itself back to 'save file'. Then I have to open options and change it again. This happened to me some years back with a much earlier version of Firefox - I can't remember how it was resolved, I think it just stopped doing it after a while. But it is most irritating!

    I echo the request for Help! I've added Options to my Toolbar so I can more easily change "Save File" to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)" as the default. Why does Firefox keep reverting to the save file default?

  • Photoshop CS6 - Color keeps changing

    I have Photoshop CS6 for Windows 7.
    Whenever I put the main color in and then switch it out for another color, the main color that's been used before keeps changing into a darker color instead of the same color tone it was taken from. I don't know if there's a problem with the RGB Color, or something else I need to check. Is there something that can fix this?

    Okay then. I mean when I use the Eyedropper Tool on the color that I had already put on a picture, the color becomes darker than what is shown when I use the Brush tool.
    Like when I put light red as the foreground color, then switch it out for another color, then used the Eyedropper tool to copy the light red color to use it again, the light red color instead becomes a slight darker red when I use the brush or other related tools I use to color in my picture.
    Hope this detail is clear enough.

  • Calendar colors keep changing

    I haven't seen a question about this posted since iOS 5 came out (and most seem to come from the last decade).
    I'm running iOS 5 on my iPhone 4 and my iPad 2. I use both iCloud calendars and I subscribe to a number of Google calendars, as well. This problem only manifests itself with the subscribed calendars. I'm glad that you can finally customize the color of a subscribed calendar, but your choices don't stick. I want my work calendar to be red, my travel calendar to be blue, my personal calendar to be green, and a fourth orange. I have set these by clicking on the Calendars tab at the top to show the list of calendars, then tapping Edit, and then setting the colors.
    I don't know when it does this, but it will always change the colors to something else. And it's not consistent between the iPhone and iPad. So, for example, the work calendar, which I had set as red, is now purple on my iPad. It's green on my iPhone. I realize the color might not sync between devices, but if I set it as red on both, why is it changing them to something else?
    Only thing I can tell is perhaps it happened when the iPad's screen shut off, or maybe when it synced.
    Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround?

    I've got what i think is a pretty good fix to this.
    subscribing to calandars via iCal on your Mac is the way to go. you can subscribe, set the colour and tell it to push via iCloud to your iOS devices. they come through with the correct colour and stay that way.
    all good
    however, i can't seem to delete the subscribed calandars i have on my iPhone. every time i delete the subscription, they just come back in again! quite annoying, but at least you can untick it so that it doesn't show up. which it would go away for good though.
    much happier now i'm controlling everything through iCal and iCloud

  • CMYK settings for font color keep changing in Word

    I am trying to match a particular color of blue in Word.
    I set the CYMK percentages using the either the sliders or %age boxes in Word, hit OK and then when I open the color setting box, the numbers have changed.
    Anyone got an idea of what I'm doing that could be wrong - am using PMS CYMK numbers - C 100 - Y 75 - M 0 - K 0 - in theory it should work but it's not.

    The only thing I think is wrong is Word.

  • IPhone Calendar keep resyncing, and the color keeps changing too.

    I have my iPhone syncing with our corporate exchange server. Everything was working well. I updated my phone to iOS 4 and a few weeks later I started to see issues.
    The calendar items are blue. They they all disappear. I see it re-syncing. Not everything shows up... The ones that do show up, are now red.
    The next time the red goes away, a re-sync happens, and now the calendar is purple.
    And so on through the rainbow...
    I seems that I keeps re-syncing and doesn't get everything when it does.
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    I've had the same problem with a new iPhone 4 (the problem didn't manifest with my old phone upgraded to IOS4). Mail and Contacts are fine, but Calendar kept losing synchronization with the Exchange server.
    Set up the Exchange account and everything seemed fine. A day later most, but not all, of my exchange appointments were nowhere to be found. Deleted and recreated the Exchange account, calendar back ... but a day later poof all sorts of missing entries. Same symptoms in list view the original poster sees.
    This morning I changed the calendar Sync options from 1 month to 'All Events' and suddenly everything is good again with Calendar. (Initially, I saw the events in list view, but not in day or month view. Restarted the Calendar app and things are now fine in all 3 views)
    I have a lot of recurring appointments with exceptions. Several standing conference calls have original creation dates well over 6 months ago. The program manager sends status reports as an update to the calendar item, so almost every past appointment is in the system as an exception to the recurring event. The funny thing, though, was that I was seeing some of the recurring appointments, but not any of the individual items.
    Don't know for certain, but if I was a betting man I would bet the problem lies with the way IOS4 handles recurrence and exceptions.
    I also don't know if this "fix" will hold up. The last couple of times I got Calendar in sync, it went out of whack within 24 hours. I'll update in a day or so if things hold up.

  • IPhone Calendar colors keep changing

    When I first began using my IPhone 3G, the calendar entries all synced as blue. Fine. About a week ago, they all synced as red. Strange that the color changed, but also fine. Yesterday, they synced as yellow. Not fine. I have a very hard time reading entries because the white lettering barely shows within the entries. Is there a way to go back to one of the other colors or at least to a more legible color? Thanks.

    dwbsf. If you go into your "mail, contacts, calendars" settings, then into your Exchange account you can turn the Calendar syncing on or off. If you turn it off, then back on, your calendar colors should return to the basic default color sequence, which hopefully will be colors that are more appealing (Red, Orange, Blue, etc.

  • Isight videos keeps changing color tone and temperature

    When I try to record a movie with isight, the color temperature keeps changing and flashes from a warmer color to a cooler color. It never stays in one tone. Help!

    Welcome to Discussions, kaynen430
    (0) The first thing to use on any iSight problem is http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    For system wide problems, the reset suggested there often restores proper iSight functioning.
    If the problem is only with the _one app_ that you are now using to record video, reinstalling that app may help.
    However, if your iSight's color keeps changing in all Apple apps and in all user accounts you test, you may have a system software issue. You can test whether software will correct your problem by trying the following:
    (1) First, use Disk Utility to repair permissions.  Then download and apply the COMBO update for the Mac OS version that you use. You do not show which OS X version you use, but you can find it in the list returned by this search:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=search&product=&q=combo%20AND%20update
    Repair permissions again IMMEDIATELY after the restart that finishes the installation.
    Then test iSight again. (Repeat iSight Troubleshooting suggestions if necessary.)
    (2) If properly applying the Combo Update does not resolve your problem, you may have problems within the basic OS X software.
    To test that, reinstall your OS X, update to the latest OS X version you use by using the process in (1) above, and then check again for proper iSight function.
    (3) If you need to post back for more suggestions, it will be helpful if you also post the following:
      • OS X version (you may want to add this to your Profile in "My Settings" when logged in)
      • Which app and version you originally posted about
      • Whether your problem is EXACTLY the same in every app and user account you tested
      • Which of the suggestions already offered you have used
      • Anything new you learned while trying the suggestions above.
    (4) We will watch for your status update and offer specific suggestions based on the details in your reply.

  • Why does firefox keep changing colors?

    Suddenly the Firefox background color keeps changing (blue, tan, gray) I would like to keep it one constant color. How/ why did this happen today when I changed nothing, and how do I fix this?

    Are you using Firefox theme and choose Random theme option?
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.

  • PDF color changing when imported into InDesign 6

    I am importing a customers pdf into InDesign 6. When I do the import the color is changing from the original PDF colors. The original color in the pdf is 0/95/100/29 and when imported to InDesign 6 it becomes 21/98/100/12. Is there a setting I need in InDesign 6 to keep the original PDF colors intact?

    Are you using the eye dropper tool to get those numbers?  It could be the way the original PDF was created.  I have a feeling that the original settings ere set to "adapt" to color workflows or something similar.  See if you can open the PDF in Acrobat and set the file to "Leave Color Unchanged" if you can...somewhere in the file's profile or color setting.  It could also be the preview in InDesign.  If somehow there is a way to find out which color settings were applied to the PDF; you could then match those in InDesign's Color Settings.  If it is the preview reading, then the file should proof well.  If InDesign has corrupted the PDF's original color, then the file will proof bad.  I think it prudent to investigate the PDF's original Color Settings vs. InDesign's.  Try posting this question in the InDesign forum and see what you get back.  I'd be curious to know what they have to say over there.

  • HT2513 my iCal calendar that I created with the color green keeps changing to purple.  no matter how many times I change it to green, it turns it back to purple.  Of course this only happens with iCloud and not "from my Mac".  Any ideas?

    my iCal calendar that I created with the color green keeps changing to purple.  no matter how many times I change it to green, it turns it back to purple.  Of course this only happens with iCloud and not "from my Mac".  Any ideas on how to correct this?  This seems like a trivial error, but it's super annoying.

    I called Apple and they said that they know about this problem.  It's a problem with iCloud which their Engineers know about.  (there was a new iCloud release, hence...)  No ETA for a fix yet.  I asked that this be escalated so Engineering doesn't put it at the bottom of their fix list.  I talked to a Senior Advisor and mentioned to them to have QA check their regression tests as this has happened before to me (the problem just didn't take this long to resolve).  I like to use green too for important stuff, so I've resorted to creating a new calendar using the normal calendar green for events going forward.  They could have picked another color besides green to have this problem with and I wouldn't have been so upset.  ;-)

  • Why does the color on my calendar keeps changing colors on its own

    I have several color coded calendars for each family members.  My daugther's calendar all of a sudden changed from green to blue (which is my son's) by itself.  I changed it back to green and it automatically changed back to blue again.   This happened once before a while back and after I keep changing back the color, it corrected itself eventually.
    Why is this happening and how can I fix it permanently?
    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Same problem on top of regularly dropping WIFI when all of my other devices have no problem.
    Owned this laptop since FEB 2014. My worst experience with a laptop to date. Wish I'd bought ASUS now which I also considered before buying.Another family member bought ASUS & no issues.
