PMS color changes to CMYK when file is closed and reopened

I got a .psb-document with a adjustmentlayer>solid color as a background. The color is a Pantone 354-C. When I save my document (CMYK), and then reopen it, I no longer get the Pantone color library but the default color picker box. I see no visible change in color though so I'm not sure if the color changes. If I click the color library button in my adjustment layer, it automatically pics the PMS color beneth the 354-C (that is 355 C) and I see a change in color. So I have to repick 354-C again.
Anyone knows what's going on here?

Spot Colors have no real connection to individual Layers in Photoshop (as of CS6).
If you want to use them you need to employ Spot Channels.
Edit: And your intended color is probably simply out of gamut for that color space.

  • PMS colors show as CMYK when using Device N

    I have just upgraded to the CS3 Suite recently and am trying to send a PDF through the system using Device N. I use Quark Xpress 6.5 (haven't been able to talk the boss into converting to InDesign yet) and so when I have a project that uses PMS colors, of course I choose Device n when I create the PDF. When I send the PDF through, the PMS colors have separated into CMYK. I use the Creo Distiller Assistant that's supposed to help with color seps. We've got a computer to plate system so this really creates havoc with our impositioner. This version is Acrobat 8 Professional. I was using Acrobat 7 Pro and it worked fine with the Creo distiller assistant and all. Can someone tell me what's going on?

    I checking the colors 1st in illustrator, than in indesign with separations preview (so far so good), and then in acrobat with output preview... and here is where it goes wrong... both for certified as well as uncertified.
    I have now found the problem, but am unsure how to deal with it in the future (color management hell) : something to do with our synchronized profiles that basically say: adjust to match current color settings, placed content:keep existing assignments. I don't know how clear this is? If iI disable the profile so I can override the existing assignment (which must have originally been to preserve appearance rather than numbers) it all works out.
    I suppose it is an internal agency issue as to what to do. The idea is too stick synchronised as to provide consistent color, but there all these hidden profiles stuck in files from who knows who, when or where.
    If you can follow, and have any suggestions,?

  • Often when Firefox is closed and reopened ALL the tabs and tab groups are missising. FIX!!!!

    For reasons that are unclear to me I sometimes close Firefox and later re-open it. In some cases ALL the tabs and tab groups are gone. Today it opened in MSN.com and ALL tabs were gone. I put a lot of pages on these and have NO WAY to find them all again. If this continues and you cannot give me a way to recall them I simply will have to go to another browser. It always happens when I need them most and don't have time to even track down one. It completely upsets my day, week, month whatever!!!.
    Is there a way to get them back? Someone asked a similar question and was never given a useful answer.

    I've begun having this problem as well. Reviewing the above, I seen no errors that I' making. A few weeks ago, without being aware of an update to Firefox, it began behaving differently than it has for years. I've always had it set to open to an empty tab, now it often opens to the 'Firefox Home Page' (which I've never used)... this despite resetting my opening page to "Show my windows and tabs from last time" (upon troubleshooting the 'home page issue' I found that the opening page had reset to FF Home somehow. I store a lot of pages in tab groups and having them disappear is a major bummer since they're news articles I'm waiting to copy.
    Also... I run CCleaner weekly and I know that will erase the group tabs I've stored so before running it I have to store those URL's another way. Does anyone know what I can uncheck in CCleaner to keep those tabs?
    Thanks.

  • Importing XML, XML disappears when FCPX is closed and reopened.

    I am attempting to use 7 to X to bring in an FCP7 project into FCPX. It works (remarkebly well I might add) and I can work on my project and everything normally. However, if I close FCPX for the day and open it again, the Project created from the XML is nowhere to be found. I have not found anything on this anywhere online.
    Anyone?
    thnx.

    7toX doesn't create a project. It creates a compound clip which should be in your event. You should copy of the contents of the compound into a project.

    It is pretty short so here is the entire text:
    Symptoms
    A purplish or other colored flare, haze, or spot is imaged from out-of-scene bright light sources during still image or video capture.
    Resolution
    Most small cameras, including those in every generation of iPhone, may exhibit some form of flare at the edge of the frame when capturing an image with out-of-scene light sources. This can happen when a light source is positioned at an angle (usually just outside the field of view) so that it causes a reflection off the surfaces inside the camera module and onto the camera sensor. Moving the camera slightly to change the position at which the bright light is entering the lens, or shielding the lens with your hand, should minimize or eliminate the effect.

  • When closing and reopening, my tabs aren't restoring like the once did. My history is only keeping one day. Need to know how to change these settings.

    When closing and reopening Firefox, my tabs aren't restoring like they once did. I used to have all my tabs restore each time I opened Firefox. Now it starts with one fresh new tab and all my others are lost. I do a lot of research so this is important.
    My history is only displaying one day even though I have never changed my settings even after I updated it last year.
    Need to know how to restore these settings.
    ***OH! special note: I can't use the recently closed tabs or recently closed windows because its a grayed out option****

    Are you using cleanup software like CCleaner?
    If you use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

  • How do I change the size of file menu's and tool icons in Photoshop' opening page.

    How do I increase or change the size of file menu's and tool icons on the opening page/worksheet of Photoshop? The File Menu drop down commands read properly at a comfortable size. I am not sure how I accomplished this, but everything I have tried has no effect on the other page items.

    Hello, you can change most of Photoshop's interface text by going to preferences>interface>UI font size.
    For the size of the top menus and the whole interface, there is no function to do that for the moment. I suggest to vote on this thread: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/problem_with_hi_res_monitors

  • Artboards disappear after closing and reopening a file

    My coworkers and I have been running into an issue when we use documents that have multiple artboards. After we do ouer work, we save and close the file. When we go to reopen the file, all but the first artboard have disappeared. Looking in the Artboard panel, the original artboard counts up after every save.
    For example, say I were to create a new file and add a couple artboards. After saving, closing, and reopening the file, the additional artboards would be gone, the artwork on those boards would still be there, and the original artboard would be labeled as "Artboard 2". If I were to add the missing artboards again, the same issue would occur and reopening the file would have the first artboards labeled now as "Artboard 3".
    I am using Illustrator CS6 and saving the files as an .ai with the default settings.

    Are you saving locally? Over a network? Mac or PC?

  • How do i get a folio to default to the cover page when the app is closed and reopened.

    The folio i'm making is for a 'show and tell' sort of thing, it needs to be quite linear so has top start from the cover every time it's opened and then be read through. I know it's as easy as just using nav to return to cover but the people i'm making this for have 0 knowledge and 0 willingness to learn therefore i'd like the folio to reset to the cover page whenever the content viewer is closed and reopened.
    I had it working on a previous iteration but on my latest version it remembers what page i'm on when I reopen the viewer (logical and handy I know but not in this instance).
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    There is no way to do this automatically.

    A Safe Mode boot might help ..
    Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
    A Safe Mode boot takes much longer than a normal boot so be patient.
    Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu.
    See if the problem persists.

    I recently had to reinstall my software for a
    dell computer a dell latitude d 830, then after installing all of my software and such including itunes the player did well even record to disks with no problems now that my system has done alot of updating of system files....now the itunes does not burn to my cd...error message 2131 this time
    The 2131 usually indicates firmware needs to be updated on a drive.
    Head to your drivers and downloads page for your latitude at Dell, and check for updates to your firmware for your optical drives. If you're behind and you update, does that clear up the 2131?
