Photoshop CS6 random color shifts

Here's the lowdown on my system/machine:
Photoshop CS6 (version 13.0.4)
Mac platform, OSX (version 10.8.4)
2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
I'm having  problems with color shifts in a batch of images from a common Photoshop document.
I make 28 images from a single file, think of it like a picture frame where the frame doesn't change but the art depicted in it changes.
Since they come from the same Photoshop document they all have the same profiles and settings, they are all the same size and the frame should never change color—but it does.
Therein lies the problem.
A color shift in the art wouldn't really be noticable since the art is different every time. The frame is the same across all the images and the shift is obvious in the frame.
We use an Applescript to speed up the process; The script turns on a layer, flattens the image, then saves it out as an EPS for placement in InDesign, reverts to the layered version, then turns on the next layer and repeats the operation.
Of the 28 images, 3 of them have a noticable color shift.
It's never the same images that shift, it's just a random assortment that are effected (right now it happens to be 3, the next set of images may have more or it may have less).
Here's a screen shot of the color build in a specific location on sample 1:
Screenshot of the color build in exactly the same location on sample 2:
Here's a screenshot of the effected files in the directory (those highlighted in green are shifted):
Has anyone else seen this?
After some basic file analysis:
The shift occurs when the person working in the file creates a new document and copies the existing components from the master file into the new file.
I'm still confused since it's done on the same machine, with the same color settings/profiles, by the same person. It is still random.
BAD

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.

  • Photoshop CS6 Randomly Crashes using Intel HD Graphics 4000

    When using Photoshop CS6 on Windows 8 [Surface Pro], it randomly crashes. I normally can only use Photoshop for less than a minute, doing less than ten actions, before it crashes. I get an error message saying "Adobe Photoshop CS6 has stopped working." If I debug it using Visual Studio, I get this message:
    Unhandled exception at 0x5442B60E (ig7icd32.dll) in Photoshop.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000002C.
    I looked up ig7icd32.dll and it seems to be published by Intel and related to my graphics hardware, so I assume the problem is related to my Intel HD Graphics 4000.
    Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this problem or as to what might be causing it?
    EDIT:
    Also, when launching Photoshop, I get this message:
    Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled enhancements which use the graphics hardware.
    Check the manufacturer's website for the latest software.
    Graphics hardware enhancements can be enabled in the performance panel of preferences.
    For more information, visit:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/photoshop_gpu_en
    All my drivers are fully updated, and all Windows updates are installed. No other applications have any problems with my graphics hardware.

    If Intel does not have an updated driver, I would check the MS Surface Pro Web site.
    If no updated driver exists, you might get it to run, if you turn off all graphics acceleration.
    Unfortunately, Intel graphics chips are good, but driver support has been horrible. I recommend against using them, if one has programs like Ps CS 6, Premiere Pro CS 5 - 6, Premiere Elements 9 - 11, After Effects CS 6, any 3D applications, etc.. The Intel chips and drivers are OK for checking e-mail, surfing the Web, doing light wordprocessing, or some spreadsheet work, i.e. the tasks that they were designed for. They fall far short with video-intensive applications, that need to interface with the video driver.
    Good luck,

  • Photoshop to Illustrator color shifting

    First off, I have my Photoshop CS2 and Illustrator CS color preferences set exactly the same in both programs so the color should be consistent from one to the other. However, lately the colors are giving me huge hassles! In Photoshop CS2, I create CMYK PSDs with consistent, background solid color throughout multiple files. I then flatten my images and eye drop the colors to check and everything is consistent. I then open Illustrator CS and open, (not place) the same JPG and color sample the background and the color has shifted...what was 7%cyan in Photoshop is now 6.6% in Illustrator. This change is huge when producing large format images....can anyone help? Has this always been an issue? I've worked with these programs for years, but have just now been noticing this problem. PLEASE HELP!

  • Photoshop CS6 Randomly Freezing

    It started when I updated my Mac to 10.9.1. I'll be using my brush and use a keyboard shortcut to change tools. It'll keep using the brush but it won't register the keyboard shortcut. I have to click the tool with the stylus or mouse and then it suddenly catches up. This happens every few minutes, occaissionally the shortcut will work. Keyboard works everywhere else. Not only that, but when I switch to another application, and return to photoshop, nothing registers. It won't register I'm trying to use it until I swap open applications a few times before returning to photoshop. Its slowing down my work. Not even sure if its related to the Mac update. CS6 is updated.

    This sounds like other problems people are experiencing with MacOS 10.9.

  • Problems keep color same in picture in Photoshop CS6?

    Whenever I zoom in, in Photoshop CS6 the color changes between the orignal photo color, to a more contrasted color, and then back. It happens when I also use the lasso tool, patch tool, zoom, etc. I would just like help making this go away. Any information would be helpful.  I've included a video, with a random image. P.S The effect happens with any picture in RBG, but goes away when I switch to CMYK. It also happnes If I  type in text.

    This means either your card or driver are not up to the task.  Find the make and model of the card and go to manufactors website and download the latest driver version.  Win8 is still new so all the fixes are not in yet with drivers.  Good luck.
    Some with Win8 are experiencing screen flickering which MS and GPU manufactors are aware of.  Seems to be more prevalent in ATI cards.

  • Why does the color change when I open a warm image in Photoshop CS6?

    Whenever I open a warm color image in Photoshop CS6, the color of the image automatically changes? Please see the attached screenshots below.
    What is the solution to this problem? Please Help.
    I use Windows 7 Ultimate. Photoshop CS6.
    Graphics Card: Intel HD Graphics 2000

    There is no "problem" to "fix". A raw file is just the data captured by the sensor, not yet an image. To produce a useful image it needs to be processed in a raw converter, either automatically in-camera or with a standalone converter (ACR).
    The camera LCD shows you an in-camera processed jpeg, according to the camera manufacturer's idea of how the raw data should be interpreted. There is nothing inherently "correct" about this, and a lot of the original data have been thrown away in the process.
    ACR doesn't make any assumptions about how the final image should look. It shows you a neutral starting point, with default settings to preserve as much of the original data as possible. The rest is up to you. You're not supposed to just accept the defaults. The sliders are there for a reason.
    You can change the ACR defaults at any time if you come up with settings that are more to your taste.

  • Printing from Photoshop CS6

    Having problems printing from photoshop cs6 the colors are way off. How do you collebrate the printer to print whats on screen?

    you are going to have to try and match your printer colors to the image colors. many questions involving color management and your settings in PS: is CMYK set? set your "printer handles colors"?
    for color management:
    1. calibrate and profile your monitor
    2. set up an image color space
    3. configure your printer driver for the print.

  • Color shift in Photoshop CS6

    I use Photoshop CS6 which had problems with disappearing icons with Mountain Lion but with Mavericks I cannot achieve the hex color #e4e2c8 (first noticed it with Save for Web) for object or background color - it keeps reverting to hex #dbd9c0. But I can get #e4e2c8 color with live text. This is the background color for my website so you can imagine the fantasies of revenge that I must be experiencing. I’d rather pay for something that works than have free garbage any day!  I’ve tried every permutation in the color settings. Is there a solution to this color problem?

    I figured this out. But there is a little problem with how Preview shows png 8 images (faded) png 24 is fine in Preview.

  • Can I pop out the color picker in Photoshop CS6?

    Hey everyone,
    I am doing digital painting in Photoshop CS6, and would love it if I could keep my color picker open in a separate window. Does anyone know how to do this? I've seen an artist named Feng Zu do this in a painting tutorial video, but he doesn't explain how.
    Thanks!

    You can also get to a HUD (Heads Up Display) version of the Color Picker by holding down the Control+Option+Command keys on a Mac (Alt+Shift+Right Click on a PC, I believe)
    But I personally find the HUD color picker unintuitive and problematic.
    If you find a way to keep a floating Color Picker window, post back. That could be convenient.

  • Premiere Pro CS6 and Media Encoder CS6 Color shift on export

    Hello,
    I am working on an early 2008 Mac Pro with 2 X 3.2 GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon Processors 32 GB of RAM a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB Graphics Card and I am running OS X 10.8.2.
    I have the updated Version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and Media Encoder CS6 through the awesome Subscription program that Adobe has started.
    My footage is shot with the Canon 1D Mark IV shot 1920X1080 at 24 FPS
    I am importing the camera files and then exporting them after I cut them up in to Quicktime Pro Res 422 HQ files
    With the technical explination out of the way here is my problem. I have color right from the camera files that I like. and with out doing any thing to change the color I export the footage and get a dramatic color shift. The exported file looks desaturated and slightly green.
    I have tried using Media Encoder CS6 to export my footage and that has the same result.
    I started my career as a photographic retoucher and use photoshop and light room constantly so I am pretty confident that i know color. I also calibrate my Lacie 526 and Lacie 324i montiors monthly as well as have a sensor that will slightly shift the profile depending on the time of day.
    I have attached three screen shots that show the color shift exactly. Now what I need is a solution. What I am not seeing is color settings for Premiere. I am totally open to any suggestions on what I might be doing incorrectly.

    I've been doing this for a few years now, and have come to some conclusions. Basically, the difference between still photography and video is like the difference between playing the trumpet and the sax. What you bring to the sax from playing trumpet is your ability to read music, what you know about composition, blending while playint with others, ect. But playing trumpet tells you nothing about how to physically play a sax. So it is with still photography and video.
    For starters, your carefully calibrated computer monitor is just that, a computer monitor. It doesn't display the correct working space for video. What you need for WYSIWYG in video is a monitor that can show you the Rec.709 working space. Rec.709 has a different gamut, a different gamma, probably a different white point (D65), different phosphor colors, etc., etc., etc. Enought differences that it's difficult to make a computer monitor that can successfully display Rec.709. Yet there are a couple of computer monitors that can do this (a few Eizos, one HP). The vast majority of people doing serious color correction work in video use a production monitor for just this reason.
    But a production monitor isn't enough. You also have to make sure that the signals you're sending the production monitor are correct. There's a sub-industry making signal converters for signals from NLE video cards (usually RGB based) -> signals for production monitors (usually YUV based).
    That said, it is certainly possible to get a very good match between your NLE suite and a DVD / BD as displayed on an HDTV. But it's not as simple or easy as a calibrtated computer monitor for still photography use.
    This is probably part of your problem. But Quicktime is probably the root of it. Quicktime is, well, I guess the polite way of saying it is that Quicktime is problematic. It gives all kinds of problems. Most people have abandoned it. You should too.

  • CMD + Shift constrain drag shortcut buggy in Photoshop CS6 (Mac)

    Since moving to Photoshop CS6 a shortcut I regularly use for switching tool and dragging elements on a page is producing varying results. The CMD + Shift drag is very useful to allow users to drag elements constrained vertically or horizontally on the page. However since CS6 I have noticed it no longer allows me to drag effectively while my cursor is over the elements I want to move. It goes a bit nuts and does different angles instead of the constrain. This problem is intermittent and depending on the elements I am attempting to move will randomly depend on whether it works. This shortcut I have been using for years and has become native to me. So why now is it not working properly ?

    I can reproduce this issue in Bridge CS6. Thanks for reporting!

  • My display color shifts to a blue tint when opening photoshop and bridge with Yosemite

    The display on my mac book pro color shifts to a blue tint when opening Photoshop CS6.  Any suggestions on how to maintain the current color profile?  My photography work is dependent on proper display calibration.  Thank you

    First open the Universal Access preference pane and in the 'seeing' tab, make sure that the slider for 'enhance contrast' is all the way to the left. Next, open the Displays preference panel and click on the 'color' tab. The click the 'calibrate' button. This will take you through a color/brightness/contrast set up procedure that may eliminate the problem.
    There are two options in the calibration process, standard, which is the default option and has fewer adjustment screens, and expert, which is selected by checking the box for it on the first calibration screen and offers more adjustments. You can't do any harm with either since any settings you create can be discarded, or profile(s) you save can be deleted or ignored if necessary.
    This won't necessarily resolve the problem, but if not, then it would indicate that there's an issue with the hardware - possibly just the connector on the back of the system, which needs to be fastened really tightly. If you can't readily resolve this, since your system is so new, I'd then suggest you call Apple.

  • Photoshop CS6 Color Management Inaccuracy

    Adobe:  Just a reminder, this color-management problem that I reported against Photoshop CS5 is still around:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3475331
    It's illustrated here in this screen grab, showing the visibly inaccurate result of Photoshop's transform, done in the GPU, from RGB values in the ProPhoto RGB color space to the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 color space.  Note the circular banding and color shifts in what should be a perfect gray gradient.
    Do you think you could find it in your hearts to fix this before moving on to layer more features on an imperfect code base?
    Thanks.

    I would like to include myself in the list to request the Adobe Photoshop CS6 team to look into the discolorization issue. I am using the entry level nVIDIA GT 430 for its basic openCL features for PhaseONE CaptureONE PRO.
    I created a 16-Bit monochromatic image in CaptureONEPRO 7 and opened in CS6. My RGB working profile is ProPhoto and my 16-BIT BW TIFF is in the ProPhotoRGB space. With the GPU settings to "Normal" and "Advanced," I could see the discolorization and banding on my images. I have found that if I go to "View" and click on "Gamut Warning," the discolorizatioin seem to disaappear.
    Having the GPU to "Basis" clears everything up as Noel Carboni first reported. I only have the banding and discolored appearing when GPU is on "Normal" or "Advanced."
    Yours sincerely,
    Ronald

  • My Photoshop CS6 keeps crashing on random file formats...How do I find the cause within the crash report?

    One of our users is experiencing crashes when opening random files. They range from regular Photoshop to JPEG files. The same errors is occasionally happening with Illustrator but it is predominate on Photoshop. The following are two crash reports that appeared after the crashes.

    I know i have a G5 in my profile but as i said in my first post of this thread im using my macbookpro dual 2.4GHz, 4GB RAM so the apogee has nothing to do with this computer.
    I ran rember last night and i woke up after 12 hours and it was still running.
    I put loops onto maximum and RAM allocation to maximum to get full testing.
    Any ideas on why its taking this long or is it normal?
    Cheers, Benji
