Photoshop CS5 shows colors incorrectly on my CintiqUX21

All I know is that it is really just Photoshop, When viewing images or documents on the Cintiq they display the same colors as on my main monitor.
But when I draw something in Photoshop the colors are more saturated. This is especcially noticable when I undock the working space and drag it on my main monitor.
Testing with a rainbow gradient I can see that relative to my main monitor the purple gets darker and the blue gets stronger; almost turning into a solid bar rather than a gradient. The green also gets slightly lighter.
What am I doing wrong?

Hmmm I've been working in sRGB IEC61966-2.1 Always have been, never really changed it.
Appearantly there is an option called Cintiq12wx.icc which seems to work better. (The blue is still a bit strong but it ain't no solid bar any longer)
It is a great improvement!
Thank you Mylenium! Good guess!

My images in Photoshop CS5 show up black.?

My images in Photoshop CS5 show up black.?
CS5 and was working great yesterday..but today both all my images PSD, JPG show up black in the workspace.
The image is only visible when I am moving the window around and it shows up in the layer window fine.
I can't see my edits, and I have no idea how to turn it off, or get that Black not to show...
HELP, I need PS to work ASAP... Thanks to All... TOM

Have you tried deleting your preferences file?
I think it's CTRL, ALT, SHift when starting PS and that will brinf up a prompt box.

Photoshop CS5 ruining color now?

Hi all.
I captured a screen shot on my Mac using Grab, and pasted it into Photoshop. The color was way off, with a pinkish cast added. You can see a comparison here; the original is on the left and Photoshop is on the right.
I brought this split-screen shot into PS and the cast got even worse. I tried both TIFFs and PNGs, and Photoshop is wrecking the color. I can't find any explanation in the settings. Any ideas? PS is pretty much unusable at this point.

Mobius Strip, discussing the profile of screen grabs is all distracting twaddle…
Since you don't seem to be aware of this, your Color settings are located here Edit > Color Settings. You need to make sure these settings match in CS4 and 5, and that no "Convert to…" settings are switched on in either. 'Convert To…" will automatically convert opened documents to your default profiles, specified in this dialog. Which you don't want.
You need to develop some basic understanding of Color Management.
what is Photoshop displaying when "proof color" is off? Because it's not what other apps are showing from the same files.
It is attempting to display the actual colors contained within the document. Whatever profile that document may be in. It uses the monitor profile, which it assumes to be accurate, to do this. This attempt is restricted only by the full gamut (range of colors) available on your monitor.
There were no changes to Color Management features between Photoshop CS4 and CS5. In every resect they will display colors the same. To be 100% sure than Photoshop is behaving the same in both cases, make sure also that Open GL is consistently switched on or off for both versions.

Photoshop CS5: Any color with zero red information will turn black

I've been having this problem ever since I installed Photoshop CS5 (12.0.4) on a Windows 7 64-bit machine. I've used the program on a Windows Vista 64-bit PC in the past with no problems.
Any color that has zero red information will turn black when in RGB mode and in either 8 or 16-bit mode. If I use the paintbrush, for example, a color with RGB 0/100/100 will be black. However, the color 1/100/100 will not. This problem also occurs with imported images. I've only tried JPEG and PNG so far. The problem does not save out though, as any image exported from Photoshop will appear fine. The issue seems to go away when in 32-bit mode, but it's a little RAM-intensive, and the file sizes are quite large.
I have reinstalled Photoshop, reset its preferences, and reinstalled my video card's drivers (I have a Radeon HD 7870). My PC has 8 GB of RAM and plenty of free hard drive space.
Below is a screencap of what's going on. I'm a bit lost here...any help would be greatly appreciated!

It's a well-known issue with current ATI drivers and Photoshop's GPU-accelerated color-management logic.
You can work around it a couple of different ways:
1. You can install ATI's latest Catalyst 13.2 beta driver, which does solve the problem, or you can uninstall and drop back to Catalyst 12.8.
2. You can switch to Basic GPU mode (and restart Photoshop). Basic mode moves the color-management logic into the CPU. This might be a workaround you'd prefer to take until AMD releases their next non-beta driver where the problem is solved.

Open a pdf in Photoshop CS5 shows jpg - but no grafic

I have a handbook opened in Photoshop CS5 and I can see the jpg images of the handbook.
But not the grafic scematic images.
I am not aware if these are in svg or whatever.
How can I get access to those grafics?
Yes, I may open a page and copy a grafic,
but I would like to get the original content.
Thanks,

If you are opening a PDF in Photoshop and having a problem, then the Photoshop forum is the place to ask. This has noothing to do with Acrobat.

Adobe Photoshop CS5 shows a missing Application manager on Lenovo 64 bit tower

I have installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled Adobe Photoshop CS5 on a Windows XP 64 bit Lenovo tower. When I attempt to open Adobe Photoshop CS5 in 64 but mode I get an error that says it can't find the Adobe Application Manager. I tried to look this error up and I found a site that referenced the 64 bit Adobe Photoshop CS5 was looking for the 32 bit version of Adobe Application Manager. When I look in my application folders, I can see the 64 bit Adobe Application Manager, but not the 32 bit version. The 64 bit Enterprise version of AAM runs, but Photoshop CS5 will still not start. I tried force starting the AAM and according to task manager it runs for a few seconds then shuts down. In addition, I've checked the Services control panel and the only Adobe product that appears there is called Adobe Switchboard. I am in desperate need to get this working. Any ideas?

Hey photogal! I am experiencing the exact same problem as you on the same device. Hopefully a more seasoned member of the community can help us.

Photoshop interpreting monitor colors incorrectly

My issue is with my second monitor and the colors of Photoshop files. I am using a two monitor setup with my macbook laptop.
I process a Raw file using Lightroom 2. I export a Jpeg and it looks perfect when I open it in Preview, matching the Lightroom, when viewed on the second monitor screen. But, when I open that file in Photoshop it looks about 15% desaturated, when viewed on the same 2nd monitor.
The really wierd kicker is that as I drag the photo from the Macbook screen to the second monitor screen, while in photoshop, it looks fine. It only desaturates as I ungrab it (or unclick it if you prefer). I am speculating that photoshop is interpreting the monitor profile incorrectly or something..... any help out there?

So, I figured out a work around with the help of my friend. He stated that Photoshop can only work with one monitor profile. So I moved the arrangement of my displays so that the external display is the main one. Now PHotoshop looks just like Lightroom.
My new question is... Is there a way to have photoshop read my external display without having it be the main display in the systems preferences?
Thanks

Photoshop CS5 shows canvas with old image when opening a NEW file

Hi,
Everytime I try to create a new file in photoshop with FIle->New, the same last image I was working on shows in the canvas.
This is bizarre behavior. Has anyone encountered this problem?
thanks

Sounds like a buffer isn't being cleared in the display driver...
Visit the web site of the maker of your video card and download/install the latest video driver for your particular hardware and OS.

Photoshop is printing colors Incorrectly

I recently updated my operating system to MAC OS 10.8 and as a result, Photoshop 5.5 no longer prints colors accurately. I corresponded with the tech department at Adobe for more than a week and we determined that my user settings did not migrate properly when I upgraded, resulting in skewed colors when printing from Photoshop. In running tests, we made a new "root" user and Photoshop printed correctly when using that user. I'm wondering if anyone knows how to fix my user settings/profiles so that my paper and printer profiles operate correctly in MAC OS 10.8 when printing from Photoshop?
I've spent more than a month already trying to resolve this issue. If anyone has had a similar problem or has any suggestions I would be extremely grateful!

On a Mac, make sure Photoshop is fully Quit, then cold-start it, and immediately press and hold the Command - Option - Shift keys down. If you've gotten them down quickly enough Photoshop will prompt you to confirm deletion of the preferences, which will cause the automatic generation of default preferences.
Hope that helps!

Photoshop CS5: border in full screen mode

I ran this by in the User forums. Now I think I should file it as a bug.
I use full screen mode in PS. It's important to me,especially when I take screenshots.
Photoshop CS5 shows a border in full screen. Something CS4 or even Bridge CS5 doesn't do. I've attached an example:
My video card is not detected by CS5 (or CS4) so the GPU options are grayed out in Preferences. I could shut off aero...but I like the functions it provides and I don't think I should switch in and out for one program. If any of the programmers here look at the situation....I'd like to know if they can fix it in a future update release.

Photoshop and Bridge Color Space Mismatches

I've recently scanned a number of photos (.TIFF) using the Wide Gamut Color Space (Nikon AdobeWide 4.0.0.3000).
Bridge shows:
Color Mode = RGB
Color Profile = Nikon AdobeWide 4.0.0.3000
However when I open them using the embedded profile, Photoshop CS5 shows on the file Info/Camera Data Tab
Color Space = sRGB, or
Color Space = Uncalibrated.
I opened the files in IDImager to see what it showed. It had under Technical Data
Color Space = AdobeRGB
Color Profile = Nikon AdobeWide 4.0.0.3000
So, Bridge and IDImager seem fine; Photoshop seems to have some difficulty.
The monitor is calibrated.
Why would Photoshop behave in this way? Is there anything I should be concerned about in what PS may be doing.

Probably something to do with your Edit->Color Settings. Is the second RGB dropdown set to Convert to Working RGB?

Bridge CS5 showing 16 bit previews

Hello
I have written about this before and have never had a good answer.
I see that the latest version of Bridge CS5 64 bit Windows seems to show 16 bit previews. The previews are posterised.
I have a ATI HD5400 with the latest drivers running on Win 7 64 bit. Win display properties shows 32 bit display at 1920 by 1200 on my Eizo SX2462W monitor.
If I open a previewed image in Camera Raw, I see a initially a posterised image which then redraws to un posterised.
Bridge slide shows also show posterised images and do not have the sharpening applied in CR.
I have purged all my caches and also have selected 100% previews and monitor sized previews.
The Loupe shows the posterisation.
Photoshop CS5 shows unposterised images.

The Bridge previews are jpegs and I have a feeling that there is a problem with Bridge which is I think still 32 bit in CS5. working on a 64 bit OS.
Bridge CS6 (in fact Bridge version 5) is the first version that appeared in 64 bit. But I don't see the difference of 64 and 32 bit for the system effecting your previews.
The specs of your graphic card show that this card should not cause a problem.
To clarify, (no relevant knowledge of Windows on my side I'm afraid) you have multiple disks on your system or do you have a partition on the same disk for both XP and Windows 7?
And are you using two different libraries (read: two different cache folders for Bridge, one for XP and one for Windows 7) or do you use the same cache folder for both.
The latter might cause you problems. About each new version of Bridge has a different cache structure and they are not easy interchangeable (if at all). And I think both OS have different approach of cache but I'm not sure about that.
When stating that the problem solves with purge cache on one system and same solution brought it back on the other I think here is the culprit. To me this indicates to a cache problem.
Hence my suggestion of quitting Bridge and manual deleting the total cache folder (on a Mac this is in the user library) and after restarting Bridge it will refresh with a new and empty cache folder for a fresh start.

Incorrect text size in Adobe Photoshop CS5 for Mac?

Hey all,
I am posting this for an older gentleman who is a photographer and uses Photoshop on his Mac. His iMac runs OSX 10.9.3 and he uses version 12.0.4 X64 of Photoshop CS5. I noticed when I was to his place the other day giving him tutoring sessions that his Photoshop has issue with displaying text sizes incorrectly...
For example, we took one of his scanned image files of a slide and changed it's resolution lower so he could send it to a journalist for an article. He wanted to add his name, a date, and a copyright symbol down in the corner of the image....fine. However, the text is showing up as what LOOKS like 12-point, but we have it set to 0.3!!!! It's VERY frustrating! I read many people had issues with this and fixed it by updating, but his Adobe Updater program says there are no newer versions of Photoshop available for him to update to...? Can anybody tell me how to fix this issue for him or point me in the right direction? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!!!
Cheers and thanks!

Having type set to the default Points, can be problematic IMO, and I always set it to Milimeters in Preferences > Units & Rulers > Type. That way I know that if my image size is, say 10 inches high, and I choose a Type size of 25, it will be one tenth the height of the image regardless of resolution (ppi).
