PICS IN BLACK AND WHITE.

I take a b/w picture with my 4s, IOS 7.1.1. Once I sync it to iphoto– 8.1.2 - is in colour. How do I solve?

Are you just making a copy of the same image so you have 2 layers of the same thing? Or are you copying one image and pasting it into another image so you have 2 layers with different images on each of them?
There's only one way for what you describe to happen: You're pasting the copy into another image that is in Greyscale Mode, that's black and white. Click on Image>Mode and click RGB. Your black and white copy should get its color back.

Black and white pic back to color

I understand how to turn a pic black and white but can not figure out how to turn a single item in the pic back to color like for example a pic of a child wearing a pink bracelet i want the pic to be black and white but the bracelet back to pink...can someone please help with this?.

desaturate
make sure the mode (image> mode) is rgb
then either paint with the brush in color mode, or make a selection and use an adjustment layer in hue/sat/brightness mode with colorize checked to adjust the item to the desired color.

Black and White pic - why is it purple?

Got an old black and white photo that I thought I'd scan then enhance. It's actually BLACK and WHITE (not sepia but maybe more grayish than black)
I scanned it with my Canon MP830 and the scan looked B&W.
I opened it in Photoshop CS3 and it looked B&W.
I cropped it, sharpened it etc etc and it still looked B&W.
But when I printed it (on my Canon MP830) onto Photo Paper Glossy Plus, it's got a distinctly mauve tinge.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks :-)

Hi everyone. Sorry about the delay answering, just got back from hols.
Before I get to the original subject, I must say I find these Adobe forums very hard to navigate. I've questioned and answered on hundreds of forums over the past 15 years and the Adobe group has a 'style' all of its own. For example, I wanted to post a reply in which I could comment about everyone's responses, but now, as I type this, I can only see PDF's post, so I can't refer back to the two earlier posters, to make detailed comments about their helpful remarks. On most boards, if I hit the REPLY button on the last post, I get to see all previous posts above my response box. Not so here. There doesn't seem to be a PREVIEW button, either, to 'test-run' my reply. Maybe I have the page laid out incorrectly....
OK, back to my question about my scanned B&W photo printing with a purple cast. Sorry but I'm not experienced enough in Photoshop to be able to apply the curves and layers suggestions. However, it's possible that I should have used the Black and White setting on the scanner, rather than Grayscale. I did this because the scan Preview looked quite weird in B&W but appeared better in Grayscale, so that's what I scanned with.
PDF, I'm not sure that my Canon MP830 has the ability to print using only black ink but I'll check it out. I seem to recall that some of myHP printers from way back had the facility, but if the newer Canons have the function, it's not obvious.
Thanks for all your responses. :-)

PSE8 Black and White scanned pics need editing

Any suggestions how to retouch an older black & white photo? I scanned it into PSE8 and it needs some major adjustments. My last photo editing program had tools for just black and white edits. Help!

Thanks Bob for your timely response. I found my problem was due to choosing
the "black and white" option for scanning. Apparently, that is for text.
The correct option was "grey tones" for scanning black and white photos.

Help! I need to know how to make photos black and white from color and leave one thing colored.

I am a new user. I have elements 6. I really want to take pic of flower that i shot in front
yard and change it to black and white and then erase the b/w flower to reveal the true
color of the flower underneath. I have had mixed ways advised to me but not successful
any way i try. Help please!

Hi,
You can use Smart brush. From tools panel on the left, select Smart brush tool and select Black & White category and select any effect which you wish and start painting over the area to be changed to B/W.To edit your adjustments, you can select Detailed smart brush if you feel more comfortable in using brush than Quick selection tool.

Black and white photo shows up as a colour photo in iPhoto

Hi all,
Can someone please solve this mystery for me?
I took a black and white photo with my Nikon D40. It appears as black and white when I play it back in the camera.
When I transferred this black and white photo, along with other colour photos, to iPhoto, it showed up as a colour photo on my computer.
Why is this?
Thanks for any insight...

Lutetia
You didn't take a black and white photograph. Your D40 can't take a black and white photo, it can only take full colour. To make the photo look black and white the D40 set a flag on the file. This flag is an instruction: display me a certain way. iPhoto is not aware of the flag and so shows you the full colour pic.
Regards
TD

Q: How do I Mask/Layer a color photo with a black and white photo?

This is what I want to do. I've done it before but cannot remember for the life of me how to do it again. I want to put a color photo under (its own) black and white photo and then erase or remove or something (I can't remember the tool to do it) but I want to be able to see some of the color photo in my black and white photo. For example, say I have a pic of the Disneyland Castle. I want to make the pic black and white and then with a layer or mask (whichever one) have the exact colors of the picture underneith it show up after I have used the paint brush to remove the black and white...is anyone understanding me? When I did it before I know I did it in only a few steps, it wasn't super complicated, and I'm probably stupid for not knowing how to do it now. Thanks!

Lindsey,
First, look at the Channels in the B/W. Probably, you can use one of those as a Selection and then as a Layer Mask. If not perfect, then you can likely get close. If you need to, you might want to Blend more than one of those Channels.
If you have an issue "collecting" the Channels, just get your B/W into a separate Image, and then drag individual Channels back to your composite image, and use them, as is necessary.
Hope that some of those ideas are useful,
Hunt
BTW - turn OFF the color for Channels, so that you can see them as B/W, as that will help you see their makeup.

Is there a way to color one thing in a black and white photo. Example: I have a picture of a tulip field and I want to make it black and white - which I have already done - but I want to make one single tulip red. Help?

No, you'll need an external editor for the job:
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
The Gimp (free)
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
Pixelmator ($50 approx)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Preview is destroying my black and white photos!

I just love Preview App for quick rotating my pictures after scanning from film. But that love disappeared after Maverick update.
I think I know what's happening but don't know how to avoid it. Preview is assigning a BW profile during saving that makes my pics much darker. It happens every time I rotate a pic so after 4 rotation my picture is almost completely black.
Here is my photo stright from the scanner:
Here is how it looks after rotating in Preview.
I tried to assing profiles but it's not hellping at all.
Color pictures are fine and it all started after Maverick instalation.
Thanks for any help.

When shooting raw, most camera settings are ignored/cannot be read by Lightroom. The notable exception is white balance. And these settings are only metadata anyway, not an integral part of the file itself.
It's different with a jpeg, which is processed in-camera and then these settings are baked irreversibly into the file.
As long as the camera has a Bayer filter array in front of the sensor, the raw file contains color information, which is then processed by the raw converter. If the file is flagged as B/W, the camera manufacturer's proprietary raw converter automatically turns it into B/W. But Lightroom can't read that flag.
In any case you're better off doing the B/W conversion in Lightroom, instead of accepting the camera version, because you can adjust brightness for individual colors. So that gives you much more control:
A few genuine black and white cameras exist, like the Leica Monochrom. These cameras lack the Bayer filter array.

Adding color to a black and white image

How do you add a splash of color to a black and white photo? I have this beautiful picture of my daughter in a ballet tutu and I would like the pic to be black and white and her leotard to remain pink.

To colorize a B&W, please refer to my reply in the recent forum topic "Photo Elements 6.0 question" : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/492539?tstart=0

Anyone else has an idea?
The subject has been discussed here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2136106&start=60&tstart=0 and apparently the problem is fixed with OS 10.6.3.
But I'm using 10.5.8! Thanks.
