Pictures look slightly different in Photoshop CC compared to windows Photoviewer (lighter)

Hi there,
I purchased PS CC last week, before I worked with PS CS3.
From the moment I started using CC I noticed that my photos look slightly different in Photoshop CC compared to windows Photoviewer or in PS CS3.
They look slightly lighter, which makes it hard to adjust the correct levels of contrast etc
Is there a way to sync the view inside CC to look the same as in other programs?
Marcel

Thanks for your reaction!
Inside Photoshop CC, the settings are like this:
In Photoshop CS3 it's set to 'North america general purpose 2...
This makes me think of the following question: After i install a default windows 7 64 bit in dutch and a default Adobe PS CC, do I need to change anything in the default color settings in order to allign the different programs?

  • Since this morning all text in firefox look slightly different - I think it still uses the same font, but renders it differently.

    Since this morning all text in firefox looks slightly different - I think it still uses the same font, but renders it differently!? I would like to have it changed back to what it was. Any help is welcome.
    Some facts:
    - Happens only in Firefox (IE & Chrome still look the same)
    - Already did a reset to defaults
    I'm using the latest version of Firefox
    Screenshot can be found here: [http://www.ka-pow.net/media/images/firefoxissue.jpg link text]

    Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View/Beeld > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
    Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
    Use "Firefox > Options" instead of "Tools/Extra > Options" if the menu bar is hidden.

  • Question - Y do my fonts look slightly different when publish site to .mac?

    I've created a website on iWeb but when i publish it and view it in safari the fonts look slightly different. It's hard to explain but they basically just look worse. Can anyone let me know why this might be and how i could fix this problem. Thanks in advance.

    Quit iWeb, go to Home Folder/Library/Preferences and delete the file com.apple.iWeb.plist.
    Restart your Mac, launch iWeb and republish.
    You should really convert any text done in "copperplate" to an image. Otherwise it will be converted to an (ugly) alternative on any computer that doesn't have this font installed.

  • Why the size of the tif file is different in photoshop workspace compare to the Preview in Finder?

    1. Why the size of the tif file is different in photoshop's workspace compare to the Preview in Finder?
    Please look at the screen captures.
    Bottom left panel of Photoshop's workspace.
    Finder's Preview.
    2. I have an imac with 8gb ram, and assigned 6gb ram to photoshop use. But when I worked on a 24mb tif file, photoshop was lagging. And at the bottom left panel of Photoshop's workspace, the doc size is something/1gb. The tif file is only 24mb, why is it slow in photoshop? I have a lot of ram.
    Let me know, please.

    Thank you MIchelPM for giving me a very detailed explanation.
    So I understood why the photoshop doc size is bigger when working in photoshop.
    Regarding to your questions:
    1. How full is your Mac's hard drive?
        Not even 30% full, I even have a 1TB backup hard drive connected.
    2. How many applications do you run simultaneously in the background while working in another application?
        I usually only have photoshop or illustrator opened. Sometimes I ran 3-4 tif files at the same time, but when a big file (ex. 24mb tif) gets very slow, I closed all other files and programs, and "purged all" in photoshop, yet that 24mb tif file was still slow.
       I checked photoshop's ram and cpu usage in the activity monitor. Rarely photoshop's cpu usage would hit 100. But when I worked with the 24mb tif file, it would used all the ram that I've allocated to photoshop.
    But the myth is, my coworker who worked with the same file in CS4 with only 4gb ram in their imac don't have photoshop slowed down, when I have double the ram and CS6.
    3. What year, screen size, CPU speed of your Mac?
       I have 27" imac,
       • 2.9GHz  2.9GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 processor (Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz) with 6MB L3 cache,
       • 1TB (7200-rpm) hard drive
       • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660M graphics processor with 512MB of GDDR5 memory
    4. What version of OS X is your Mac using?
        Mountain Lion with the latest updates.
    5. What version of Photoshop are you using?
       • Photoshop CS6

  • Exposure and lens distortion slightly different after photoshop edit

    I'm pretty new to Lightroom and Photoshop, I have a pretty good understanding of Lightroom but not much with Photoshop yet.  I opened a photo that I edited the way I want including lens correction, exposure, etc. from lightroom into photoshop, did some editing with the patch tool to fill in some bare grass area on an exterior shot, then saved photoshop file as psd file in photoshop, then closed file and went back to lightroom, the photo seams to have a slightly different lens distortion not the way I want and different exposure compared to my original edited raw image.  Why is this happening?  why does photoshop slightly change the lens distortion? 

    Is LR applying lens distortion, again, by default, perhaps also vignetting correction which would change the exposure especially in the corners?
    Most lens profiles that contain information about geometric and vignetting corrections are for raw files only, but a few also have non-raw versions.  it is possible that your LR defaults say to apply lens corrections whenever a file is imported and for the lens you're using there are both raw and non-raw lens profiles.
    A simple way to tell if this is occurring is to go to the Lens Corrections / Profile tab and see if Enable Profile Corrections is checked or not, and if it is, turn it off and see if the image is more the same as the original raw + your PS patch work.

  • Pictures look completely different in Aperture

    I shoot with a Pentax K200D with RAW+JPEG using the PEF format for RAW files. I then use Apple Aperture to edit the files, but I recently noticed that pictures converted to jpeg using aperture looke very different from the PEF files when viewed side by side.

    Like RWB I am a bit confused by your query, but my guess is that you may at some point be comparing files derived from RAW PEF captures against captured JPEGs. In addition to being compressed, captured JPEGs have typically been heavily adjusted in-camera for color, sharpness, etc. Prior to editing, files derived from RAW captures will appear flat in comparison to such files.

  • I have two power cords, they look slightly different.  Are they interchange

    I have a power cord from my MacBook Pro and from my MacBook. The male plug is slightly different between the two, one attaches on the side of the wire, the other is more of a 'T' on the end of the wire. Are these interchangeable?

  • Why RW2 & DNG versions of the same picture look much different?

    Dears!
    RAW format for my camera is RW2. I used conversion of RW2 files into DNG to process it in Ps.
    When previewing pictures  in IRFAN VIEW I noticed that RW2 and DNG versions of the same picture (before any processing) are quite different. RW2 one is much sharper and with better collors than DNG.
    Does anybody know why it is like that and if its better to use an external soft to work on RW2 files directly instead of converting them into DNG to process in Ps Camera Raw? Thanks for help!

    Hehehe…  You have an amusing misconception regarding the monitoring and/or moderation of these user to user forums, especially the DNG forum with its minimal traffic. 
    Posts can go unanswered here for months or forever.  Adobe does not monitor the forums.
    You had not mentioned you saw the issue in Ps as well, you only referenced IrfanView, and that was what I  addressed.

    IrfanView is showing you camera-processed image (embedded in the raw file by the camera), whereas ACR is showing you, well, ACR-processed image. You need to learn how to set up defaults and edit to please...
    Edit: IrfanView is also showing you an embedded preview of the DNG, but it's the default rendering of ACR instead of camera.
    All experienced ACR users can accomplish superior results than camera-jpeg. However, initial rendering needs some help, and also there is a psychological factor: you're used to the way the camera renders things, and so it seems more right...

  • What are the different libraires in Mac compared to Windows (Urgent)

    I am taking a beginning C++ class at my college. I started out the semester coding on a Windows pc. Microsoft Visual Studios is a very nice compiler and GUI programing tool. I was lead to believe that I can take that Mac and plug in Windows C++ code and it will work with no issue. To my suprise it doesnt work like that. I am now on the hunt for a file that shows me the different libraires with the Mac equivilent of the library.
    Example:
    #include<iostream> = whatever the equivilent is on Mac (i think this library crosses over)
    #include<conio.h> = include<curses.h>, getch changes to wgetch(stdscr) in mac
    If anyone knows if there is a file out like this please leave me a link. I have a program due Friday (April 6th) and my tower PC is not accepting Windows .net 2 or 4 frame work so it is out. My old laptop is running Windows 8 I haven't tried it yet but I am pretty sure it will not work with Microsoft Visual Studios 10. I have Xcode running on my Mac and it runs but again it does not like Windows code PERIODE.

    Dear Michel,
    !.In REM scenario Product cost collector is required for all the products for which production booking is
    to be done.
    2.For each production version created a product cost collector will be created in KKF6N.
    3.Without a product cost collector production confirmation can not be done in MFBF.
    4.Product cost collector is the cost object in REM scenario.
    5.Once after creating material master,BOM,work center,rate routing,aproduction version the next steps
    is creating product cost collector.
    6.While creating the PCC,the system creates a preliminary cost estimate nothing bu the sum up of the
    BOM and dare routing cost.
    7.Either a prelimnary cost or a standard cost estimate can be used for doing the production
    confirmation in MFBF as per the REM profile assigned.
    8.Standard cost estimate can be done in CK40N and this costs gets updated in the material master.
    9.For every production confirmation made in MFBF the costs gets accumulated in the respective PCC.
    10.the variances can be settled periodically as per the business requirement.

  • Published site slight different

    When publishing my site to a folder on my computer it looks slightly different to how it does in iWeb. Some text is underlined and the alignment is not quite how it should be.
    This isn't a problem with hosting the site on the net, it's something to do with what happens to the site in iWeb as it's being published to the folder.
    Any ideas?

    On the Contact page, try increasing the size of the text box slightly. It loads with a return after "Email:" before it straightens itself out. Also do a Command A on pages to check that objects/text boxes are not touching or overlapping.
    If you tried the troubleshooting steps and they didn't fix the underlined text problem you need to go one step further.
    Delete the offending text, save and quit iWeb
    Delete the .plist, reboot your Mac and run Disk Utility to repair permissions
    Launch iWeb, add the text, save and publish
    Deleting the text and rebooting gets rid of the screwed up info from the domain file. Doing a restart is the only way to clear redundant files out of iWeb so you should do it regularly.

  • Why do the colors appear different from photoshop when I place a picture in indesign?

    I am new to indesign, and photoshop for that matter. But when I place a picture in indesign the color looks completely different from what it was in photoshop. Is this just a display issue or will it print with the wrong color?

    You have a profile mismatch. Make sure the document and PS file's assigned profiles match. If you are not assigning color profiles then the Working Spaces in Color Settings have to match.

  • In Camera Picture different from Photoshop

    Hi,
    Sorry if I am being dim, I have searched and can't find an answer. I have done a shoot in RAW using a D300 and now when I am trying to edit them in CS3 they look completely different than in camera - and not in a good way! I have experimented with WB, image settings, RAW defaults and pretty much every other slider/button I can find in RAW however I can't get the image to look the same as it does in camera.
    Is there any way to get the incamera information to transpose across to CS3?
    Thankyou

    Update Camera Raw to 4.6 (either by running Adobe Updater, or by downloading the Update from the Adobe website). Then download the new camera profiles from here: http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/DNG_Profiles#Downloads_and_Installation
    Once you've done all that, and restarted Photoshop/Bridge, load a raw file into Camera Raw, select the Camera Calibration tab, and select Camera Standard or one of the other new profiles listed. They are equivalent to Nikon's Picture Controls.
