Photoshop Opening Colours As Blacks

Very confused, a collegue has been working on a website and the below images show the files and colours they should be, but he has opened the files up again yesterday and the files show as per the second image (the colours have changed from blues to all black but with edges defined). The document was originally created in CMYK and brought from a PDF (I know, but it wasnt us!) so there may be some legacy there, but the only thing we could think of was a colour gamut or web colour warning, but changing those didnt seem to make a difference. Any ideas what this could be?

On PC's, there are several things that can contribute to a video driver failing. Several users have reported their video driver becoming obsolete from just a Windows update. It could also be that some change/update in the OS just pointed out an existing Bug, that was not manifesting itself, until that moment.
Glad that the update solved the issue for you.
Good luck,
Hunt

  • Can I change the workspace color in Photoshop Elements 12, to Black or dark grey?

    Can I change the workspace in Photoshop Elements 12, to black or dark grey? I do not like the light grey, around my tools.

    You can use PhotoInfo to change the dates on a single or batch of photos. You can even do it within iPhoto by selecting PhotoInfo as the editor to use when you double click on a photo. But iPhoto won't recognize the changes unless it's exported and reimported. You can use PhotoInfo to batch check/change your photos before importing into iPhoto.
    What I've done is to export the full sized images to a folder on the desktop, named the folder the same as the roll they were in, run Photoinfo on the batch and then drag the folder into the open iPhoto. Then delete the original roll. Works fine.

  • Photoshop CS6 Colour Management Printing issue

    Hi,
    We use Photoshop and 2 x Epson 9800 printers to print our images, we used to use CS4 and have recently upgraded to CS6.
    We are having a problem with the “Colour Management” settings in the Printer Settings window. We choose for Photoshop to Manage Colours and select our ICC profile and Rendering Intent and Black Point. Our problem is that these settings reset each time we switch between our 2 printers back to “Photoshop Manages Colours” so we have keep selecting the same settings over and over again. This never happened on CS4.
    How do we save these settings so that they do not reset each time we switch between printers.
    I don’t think it has any relevance but we have our printer’s settings set to “No Colour Management” as the warning states.
    Kind Regards
    Steven

    You possibly need to add the profiles for your printer first.
    In LR select 'other' in the profile dropdown for the color managment. In the list check all the profiles you need for your printer.
    When you select a printer profile in LR and let LR manage the colors make sure to turn off the color management in your printer driver settings.

  • When trying to use "Edit a copy with Lightroom Adjustements" from Lightroom, Photoshop opens but no photo is displayed.

    I can see from searching online that this is a regular question but I have not yet seen a solution.
    I am running Lightroom 5.4 and Photoshop CC 14.2.1, both kept updated via the monthly subscription, on a 2013 MacMini running OSX 10.9.3
    Starting with jpg's:
    If I try  "Edit a copy with Lightroom Adjustements" - Photoshop opens but no photo displayed in PS
    If "Edit a Copy" or "Edit Original" then Photoshop displayes the file OK
    If I am using Canon Raw files (.CR2) from my Canon 70D, then AS EXPECTED Lightroom starts Photoshop with the intervening dialog box about opening a copy or original but again just a blank screen and no photo displayed.
    Has anybody found a solution yet?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Victoria,
    I dont have 3.6. but I installed lightroom 4 and the function worked fine. But i didnt like the version 4, as it consumes a lot of resources.
    I can open raw files without any problem.
    And this function had been working before and suddenly this stopped working. I didnt do any setttings changes even.
    Really appreciate your help on this.

  • Using Lightroom 5.5 and Photoshop CC2014. Images no longer open in Photoshop when using "edit in" command. Photoshop opens but no image when trying to move between LR and PS. Any suggestions?

    Using Lightroom 5.5 and Photoshop CC2014. Images no longer open in Photoshop when using "edit in" command. Photoshop opens but no image when trying to move between LR and PS. Any suggestions?

    1. You have allowed Apple to auto-upgrade your Mac
    Turn off auto-update here:
    Menu > Apple > System Preferences > App Store
    2. The Icons on your dock are Aliases not real apps
    They point to where the apps really are which is:
    For Pages 5.2.2 in your Applications folder
    For Pages '09 in your Applications/iWork folder
    3. You are alternately opening documents randomly with either version of Pages
    Both Pages have the same file extension .pages and there is no certainty as to which version opens them when you double click on a file.
    right click on the file and choose which version you want to open it
    4. Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 files
    Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files, and will convert and change Pages '09 and Word files.
    It will also auto save opened files into its own format.
    You can export these back to Pages '09 if you need to:
    Menu > File > Export > Pages '09
    5. Yes Pages 5.2.2 is a marked downgrade
    Pages 5.2.2 has a few improvements but has had over 110 features removed and is buggy.
    Sooner or later you will not be able to open a file or have it damaged in some way and it has a complex obscure file format largely incompatible with everything else, so you will not be able to rescue the contents of your file. If Pages or some third party server/eMail don't trash your file, eventually Apple will do it for you as it did when it released Pages 5 last September. I recommend using Pages '09 for the time being whilst you look for viable alternatives, some are here already and some are on the way.

  • 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.

  • Can`t open document on Illustrator but adobe reader and photoshop opens it, why?

    Can`t open document on Illustrator but adobe reader and photoshop opens it, it is a problem with the text font Futura T-Bold. How to open it on Illustrator?

    I downloaded the file, and:
    It is not a Photoshop PDF.
    I get the same result attempting to open in Illustrator; mangled font substitution. That's because I don't have one or more of the exact fonts used in the document installed on my computer, and I suspect the same is true of yours.
    The fact that it opens without issue in Reader and Photoshop is essentally meaningless, (or at least it's not an inidication that it also should open without issue in Illustrator, which is what your original post seems to imply). Reader displays the correct fonts because subsets of them are embedded in the PDF for use by Reader. Photohop just rasterises the whole page, so there is no font data needed.
    If you had the fonts, you wouldn't get the substitution in Illustrator. It works that way for any PDF.

    Hi Ashley Clavette,
    The Initial view setting works perfectly when the file is opened in Acrobat after setting the desired Initial View.
    When you upload the file onto Wordpress, and view it on that website in the browser...it might be using a different pdf handler program which might be causing this issue ( it would be helpful, if you could provide the screenshot) , however when you download the pdf again from wordpress server...and open in Acrobat/Reader...then what  exactly happens ?  Does the pdf opens in the desired Initial View setting?

    InDesign CS5 is not opening after deactivation/activation. How can I fix this? Illustrator and Photoshop open and are working fine. Please help!

    First of all, thank you for replying so promptly to my posts this morning!
    I can't remember how I got the software on his computer, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't through migration assistant.
    I was looking into doing an uninstall of InDesign and a fresh install. However, I initially downloaded the CS5 suite digitally and I can't find out how I am able to perform a fresh install of InDesign. Do you know where I find this info or gain access to download just InDesign again? I can't seem to find anything in my Adobe account that shows where I might do another download.

  • Cannot sync anymore without Photoshop opening first; stuck in a loop

    I can no longer sync my iphone without Adobe Photoshop opening first and then some message from Adobe Downloader. I seem to be stuck in a loop that consistently keeps synching over and over and I cannot reach itunes anymore without getting an error message that it lost connections with the iphone. How do I stop this looping? How do I stop PHotoshop from opening first? I'm about to throw out this iphone. I just upgraded to 2.2.1 but I was lucky I was able to do that. Somehow Photoshop shut it's ugly self off.

    This happens to me everytime too. I have downloaded Photoshop again to fix the corrupt files, but it didn't help. So now when I connect my phone, and Photoshop opens, I just click on the iTunes icon on my desktop. To upload any pics I have, I choose another option to upload them. Then go to Photoshop, get pics, and look for files on my computer. Adobe will stay open and will not allow me to cancel or close. Then I have to do ctl, alt, del. Apparently this is an issue with Adobe. Hope this helps.....

  • External Editor Photoshop opens in DNG instead of TIF File, Lightroom 2

    How do I get Lightroom 2 to open file in TIF Format when in Photoshop?

    >Works now, but def. a bug in LR2!
    No this is by design. The way Photoshop works as an external editor changed in LR 2. It will now send the original RAW file with rendering instructions to ACR/Photoshop which means Photoshop opens the dng directly. Then you save it however you want and Lightroom will automatically pick up on it. You can also make it do it the old way if you want.
