Problem Resetting Color in Camera Raw

I am using Windows CS4 11.0.1 and camera raw 5.5.
After applying a color gradient with the camera raw graduated filter, I am unable to reset the default color back to black (with the cross through the color box). I've tried alt clicking, ctrl clicking, and shift clicking, but nothing is working. I know that there must be an easy way to do this, but I haven't found it yet. I will probably feel like an idiot after I receive an answer.
Thanks in advance for your kind assistance.

Just pull the Saturation slider back to zero.
I recommend asking further questions in the ACR forum.

Duller colors from Camera Raw to Photoshop: why?

Hello!
I'm opening my Canon 70D RAW files with Camera Raw 8.4.1. After this step, I open the corrected file in Photoshop CC. At this point colors have changed, everything is duller and less contrasted.
See image.
Camera Raw color management: Adobe RGB, 16Bit.
Photoshop color management: RGB: Adobe RGB (prepress Europe 3)
Also, no color proofing is active.
How can I correct this issue?

This is a problem with your display profile. The conversion from source profile to display profile is not the same in these two cases, so a bad display profile can show up this way.
ACR converts from its internal working space, linear ProPhoto. Adobe RGB is just the export color space here, so irrelevant. Photoshop OTOH converts from Adobe RGB.
Recalibrate, and examine your calibrator's settings. V4 profiles and LUT-based profiles have caused problems for some, so try v2 and matrix-based if you have these options. You can also test by substituting a known good profile, which would be sRGB for a standard display, or Adobe RGB for a wide gamut one.

Color corrupted (Camera Raw, Bridge, Photoshop)

This is how things look in Camera Raw (left - a cr2 file) and image viewer (right - a jpg). That means it isn't the monitor.
I have tried
1) Restarting Bridge (ctrl+alt+shift and reopen and reset everything)
2) I've cleared all caches
3) resetting every setting everywhere I can find.
4) Deleted the xmp files
I can get the thumbnail to show up with the right color in bridge for a brief moment when I first open Bridge but then it reverts the the left hand color. This must mean that some kind of profile/setting is being applied but I cannot get rid of it.
It happens to all files I open in Bridge/Camera Raw. I'm using CS6 on Windows 7. I do calibrate my monitor with Huey Pro but it doesn't seem to matter if I turn that off or on.
Please help. I'm frustrated. Thanks

Your display profile is wrong, and doesn't match your display.
Change the display profile to one that actually matches your display in the OS display settings.

Problems with layers after Camera RAW plug in installed

Hello all,
I am rather new to Photoshop, so please excuse what maybe an easy question, I have made a few images into black and white and added color to them in select parts. Not to long ago I downloaded the new Camera RAW plug in to work on NEF pics. Now I can not get the layers to work. For some reason it is not allowing me to remove the black and white layer and bring out the color. This is true in RAW-I get an Alpha Channel error if working in RAW or the brush will not work in the BW image saying it is not allowed on a layer?
What am I missing? I am thinking there is something really basic that I can not figure out. Any help is appreciated.
Mike

The Camera Raw plug-in is part of the original default Photoshop installation. If you downloaded a newer version, it should have replaced the original one. Where did you install it?
Layered files have absolutely nothing to do with Camera Raw.
However, you have not given us details and your description of your problem is far from clear. Please explain.
Please read this post by a forum host for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:

Problem opening photos with camera raw 7.1 with Photoshop CS6

I am using Windows 7 32 bit system with 4GB ram and graphics accelerator.
I have Photoshop CS5.1 installed in the same system at it works perfectly.
What happens is when I use the B+W function, I get an error message saying that I have not enough ram.
After that, when I open the next photo with Camera Raw, the raw image will not open.
I have already maximised the Ram that Photoshop can use to 1.7GB and there is more than enough space in my scratch disk.
Anyone can tell me what the problem is?

Hi Noel,
Thanks for your reply.
Just to clarify.
I applied B+W layer adjustment on my photos. It is part of an automated set of actions which I apply to all my photos. I adjust the B&W layer to 50% overlay. When I click on the B&W adjustment layer, there is an error message that tells me I have not enough ram. Once that happens, when I open the next photo in raw, I don't see the new photo but only the frame of the camera raw though which I see my photoshop desktop.
It doesn't occur with the first few photos. But by the 3rd or 4th it happens.
I will adjust it to 50% and see what happens.

Problem beim Start von Camera RAW in Bridge cs6

Hallo,
ich habe soweit alle chats durchgesucht aber keine passende Antwort gefunden. Mein Problem ist das folgende:
habe die" Adobe Creative suite produktion premium cs6" im September 2012 gekauft.
Ich mache den ordner mit den Fotos in Bridge auf, sobald ich aber versuche die Bilder mit camera raw in PhotoShop zu öffnen, hängt sich das ganze Programm auf. Es geht garnichts mehr, es kommt auch keine Meldung - es hängt nur. Es ist dann auch nicht möglich das Bridge Fenster einfach zu schließen, es geht nur noch über den Task Manager.
Das selbe passiert auch wenn ich einfach auf das Bild in Bridge rechts klicke und "Öffnen mit PhotoShop" anklicke. Das Prögramm rastet ein, das Photoshop Fenster geht zwar auf, bleibt aber leer und hängt sich ebenfalls auf.
Davor gab es keine Probleme damit, es lief einwandfrei. Ich habe schon eine Rücksetzung des PC's gemacht auf bis vor einer Woche, es hat leider nichts gebracht.
Weis jemand woran es liegen könnte? kann man es beheben ohne dass man eine Neuinstallation durchführt?
Vielen Dank im Voraus an alle die etwas für die Lösung meines Problems beitragen wollen!
lg

Creative Suite Cleaner Tool laufen lassen, neu installieren. Und was auch immer für ein dämliches Update den Schaden verursacht haben mag einfach nicht aufspielen, wenn nicht unbedingt nötig...

Window Background color in Camera Raw 6.0

I've recently upgraded to Windows 7 x64 and CS5. Everything seemed normal the first couple days, but when I opened Camera Raw today, the background color of the window is an off-pink. The image is fine, but the surrounding background color has changed from the traditional white. Also, the color around the image previews on the left side is pink-ish as well as the background of the graph on the right.
This is extremely distracting, does anyone know how to change it back?

It will be in 6.1, not 6.0.
See, for example, here:

Color Difference - Camera Raw & Nikon Raw NEF

Hello everybody
When i open a Nikon Raw file in Camera Raw (Photosop CC) I notice a distinct color-difference between the integrated preview image in the Raw file and the camera Raw standard.
I want to start with the exact same color how it came from the camera.
Refers to Nikon D300 or D800 in Raw / Nef format.
left, from Camera Raw 8.4.1 "Camera Raw Standard"
right, integrated preview from the original raw-file
Mostly i have the difference in Blue, it's too much cyan in there an looks not "natural"!
thanks for help

The third icon in from the right (looks like a camera) called camera calibrations is where the presets live that supposedly match that of your camera.
Even though you use those presets, you are not done. To match what you see in your camera, you must manually adjust the sliders under the basic tab until it does match.
What you see in your camera is a processed image, which is applied to a jpg only. The raw file is just that raw, no processing is done to it. Think of it as a negative. It is your permanent record of the image. Camera raw is then used to manually set up the image to your personal liking. Which does a better job the camera or yourself, is dependent on your skills. You can get details out of that raw file that the camera can not.
When you find you are placing the sliders in certain location more than once, then it is time to create a preset in camera raw that stores those settings. The more you use camera raw, more you can see when your own preset can be used (even as a starting point) and when it is time to do everything manually.
So in other words it is going to take time to 1)get a keen eye 2)understand the subtle differences in what each setting does and 3) collect a library of presets that you can use time and again.

Problems with install with Camera Raw 5.5

I downloaded Camera Raw 5.5 and when i tried to install it, it said to close Adobe Bridge. However Adobe Bridge is not running. Can some one tell me how to fix this problem so I can run Camera Raw in CS4 for the Nikon D300s?

Bobaarch wrote:
It's hard to understand why Adobe would not have had Camera Raw 5.5 on a new purchase.
What, and scrap all those DVDs?
Even perpetually updating download packages doesnt make sense.
They could include a message to check for updates. And they could fix the flaky Photoshop updater and error-prone installer.

Update problem - can't upgrade Camera Raw

I recently upgraded my Macbook Pro. I am trying to reinstall my Photoshop CS5 Extended (student edition) and complete the upgrade to Camera Raw 6.7, but I get an error saying "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later." I click on "contact customer support" link, which brings up a page with the title " Error: This serial number is not for a qualifying product."
I bought this myself, and did not deactivate it prior to wiping my hard drive and upgrading my operating system. Is this the problem?
How can I update Camera Raw, and all the other Adobe extensions for that matter?

Here is the error that appears :

Batch processing web pages from jpgs made from color corrected Camera Raw files

I processed and color corrected a set of photos shot in camera raw, then saved as tiffs. Then I set Photoshop to Batch process them into a web slide show. The images turned out looking like the raw files before processing....kind of desaturated, since they were shot on a grey day. So then i re-saved the raw files as jpgs and hypersaturated them to see if that would produce better results, but it did not. They looked almost as grey as the original raw files. I usually add saturation to files that will end up on the web, because ImageReady always seems to desaturate color.
I'm running Mac OS4.1 and CS2.
Thanks, Suzanne

Suzanne,
Try
converting your images to the sRGB color space before processing and/or saving them for web display. ALWAYS. Remember to use CONVERT to profile not
assign

Camera Raw v8.7.1 Adjustment Brush Problem

I’m using Adobe Bridge and my problem is in Adobe Camera Raw 8.7 and 8.7.1 itself. The Adjustment Brush cursor clicked position and the actual area that will be painted is not in the same area. As you can see the picture shown below, the actual painted area is being offset about one cm away from the cursor clicked position. Only the Adjustment Brush is affected. What's more, the cursor is larger than usual and the color changes to black instead of white. Hope someone can help to give a solution or hopefully Adobe can fix the problem.

Another user has the same issue, I recommend submitting a bug report. Re: Is this a bug or a flaw in my install?
You might try rolling back to 8.6 an see if that helps: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.6

Camera Raw 8.7.1 color issues

After the recent camera raw update to 8.7.1 I have noticed some pretty bad color shifts between camera raw and photoshop cs6. The colors in camera raw look very saturated and then when moving into photoshop the saturation shift is pretty dramatic. I never had these issues before the update. I have attached a screenshot illustrating the color issue. I am working on a very good monitor ( NEC PA 242W ) and it is color calibrated using NEC Spectraview calibration system. I have double checked my color setting in photoshop and camera raw to make sure I was viewing the same color space. I am just wondering if this is maybe a bug in the update and others are experiencing the same issues or if I am just missing something.
I would also add that I am using the Creative Suite CS6 and not CC. If that makes a difference.

Thanks ssprengel for the suggestions and running a side by side yourself. I went through all my settings and applied your suggestions and did a side by side each time. I even uninstalled the entire creative suite on my system then reinstalled and updated and I still get the same outcome. It was fine yesterday with the previous version of ACR. It seems like the updated version is not showing the image preview in any color space. When I switch the color space in the workflow options the histogram changes but it doesn't seem to affect the preview window. And yes the preview button was checked on it was just when I was using the screen grab tool in windows it took focus away from the application so that is why the settings appear grayed out. I have attached more screen grabs below illustrating all my settings. Also here is some system info if anyone out there has a similar setup and would be willing to test.
Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0.1 (13.0.1.3 20131024.r.34 2013/10/24:21:00:00) x64
