Problem with image quality on screen in PS CS5

I just installed PhotoShop CS5 and opened up some images to edit. The first image I opened came up as completely black. I tried zooming in and out, but the display still looked all black. I opened up another image and I could see the image clearly if I was at 25%, 50% or 100%. If I was on any other zoom size I would get a very bad looking image like it had a very coarse screen over it. I opened another image that had the ugly screen patterns no matter what zoom size I was using. Does this have to do with any setting default? Do I have a problem with file conversions? We have one person in our design group that can run in 64bit mode. I am running in 32 bit mode. One of the images I opened was one that he edited in 64 bit mode.
Help this is frustrating. Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks,
I tried turning off OpenGL and that didn't help.
Are you talking about looking for a new video driver from the Manufacturer of the video card I am using? If so do I just look for the newest driver, or should I be looking for something else.
Also, here are my computer stats:
Windows Vista Business
2 GB RAM
About 8 GB available out of 62 GB
Video card: ATI Mobility Radeon X1400

Controlled test shows imovie 08 import is problem with image quality

Friends,
Like many others I thought that I had noticed a quality difference between imovie 08 and imovie 06. So I did a controlled test:
I imported the same video into imovie 08 and imovie 06. I made two separate movies out of the video in 08 and two separate movies out of the video in 06. I then exported one of the 06 movies into 08 and one of the 08 movies into 06. I then burned all four movies to dvd.
The resulting burns were the following:
1. imported into 06, burned through 06
2. imported into 06, exported to 08 and burned through 08
3. imported into 08 and burned through 08
4. imported into 08, exported to 06 and burned through 06.
The result:
The movies imported into 06 were clearly superior in image quality to those imported into 08. I couldn't tell a difference between the 06 imports burned through 08 and 06. I also couldn't detect a difference between movies imported into 08 and burned in 06 and 08.
What is it about 08 import that causes quality degradation? I couldn't find any quality preferences to change.
I suppose this post isn't much different from the others along this line but I couldn't find any that did this type of controlled test.
Applecare had no idea why there was this difference.

I think I've solved my problem with a Google Search. I came across a free slide show generator
(contributions requested) that shows much higher quality slide shows than either iPhoto or Aperture 3.
You click on a folder of jpegs and it almost immediately generates thumbnails and within a few seconds
I can be viewing a full screen, tack sharp, slideshow of all of the files in the folder. Much sharper than
I'm used to seeing.
I think I'll keep the Aperture 3 and use if for the purpose it's intended for in the future. I'll also redo the
image preview files to the small size it started with and then I'll copy all of the files I'm interested in from
iPhoto into a separate folder on another disk. I'll use Aperture to catalog and to perform image manipulations
on but I won't try to use it as an iPhoto replacement. I don't think I'll be using iPhoto much as an image
viewer in the future either after I finish moving my favorite pictures to the Phoenix Slides folder.
The name of the free program is Phoenix Slides. It's free to download and try, free to keep (though I
think you'd want to pay the small amount requested) and fast. My pictures have never looked so good
before.

InDesign Transparency Effects - Problems with Image Quality and File Size

Hello,
We are experiencing new problems exporting InDesign files to PDF.
To summarize, though our largest workflow is to create files for offset printing, we also deliver our work to PDF for mounting on a website so our clients can download directly from the web. Our new problem is Transparency Effects, and creating a PDF that will both have a high quality (or resolution), and be a small file size.
We are working with multiple page documents (24 to 48 pages), and would very much like to work with InDesign Transparency Effects. However, after spending much time testing a variety of PDF types, we are finding there is a radical difference between quality and file size. I was curious if anyone has had these problems, and if there is a simple answer. InDesign is an incredible program that allows us to design on the fly with Transparency Effects, but, if we are going to experience these problems, we will have to eliminate these wonderful tools.
Can you help me or lead me to information online that will help.
Thank you,
Lain

Please don't post in multiple forums. Your question has nothing to do with the PDF language and specifications, but rather PDF workflow or InDesign. I've responded to your other posting and am closing this thread.

Problem with Image Quality when Exporting

I am having an issue with the video quality whenever I export to a .mov or .mpeg file. Although my film looks good when I'm editing it in Adobe Premiere Elements, whenever I export the quality suffers. It becomes somewhat blurry, with pixellated lines visible when the camera moves or when things move that I'm filming. Does anyone know what's going on or how I could fix it? Thank you very much.
John

If you haven't already you need to change the resolution as well. Like this:
72ppi is the default which in theory should be fine for on screen viewing, but play around and use what works for you.

Problem with Image.createImage()

Hi all!
I'm writing a simple midlet just to display an image on the screen and I'm having some problems with Image.createImage()
Here is my code
Image bg_img;
ImageItem imageItem1;
imageItem1 = new ImageItem("", null,ImageItem.LAYOUT_DEFAULT, "");
try{
bg_img = Image.createImage("/image.png");
imageItem1.setImage(bg_img);
catch(java.io.IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
I'm getting an exception on bg_img = Image.createImage("/image.png");
I can't understand what is it...:(
I know for sure that the problem is not "file not found"
Any one can help me???

If you are catching IOException, then u may have problem with ur image path. "image not found on the specified path." if ur image is not in the current directiry then put it into current directory. otherwise, If u are using resouce folder and it is already included into the resouce path, then put ur image in that folder..try this..
Still not get, then please give some detail about ur development toolkit. and ur apllication packaging scheem. are you using ANT?

Copy and Paste Problems with Images

I'm having the strangest problems with images. I copy an image off of the web for one of my art history classes and I go to paste into another program but, whether it's Keynote, Powerpoint, Photoshop, or Graphic Converter, something always goes wrong: the images definitely lose some of their quality, become brighter in appearance, and get jagged on the edges. This is starting to drive me nuts, especially since it never happened in 10.4 on my iBook G4. Any suggestions?

Make it an 8-bit file (Image menu > mode).

The errors are here:

          int i=fileIn.read(buff);

printout.writeBytes(content);conffie is sent to the server but
it's non possible to treat binary data as String!
Image files must be sent as byte[] NOT as String ......

Problem with images opened in Photoshop CS 5

Hi, I have a problem with images that I open in Photoshop CS 5. F. ex. I opened
the following image:
The image appears with a purple color in Photoshop. If I hover over the image
with a tool like lasso, it temporarily regains it´s original color. The image mode is RGB Color, 8 Bits/Channel.
I resetted the start settings of Photoshop with the CTRL-Shift-Alt-combination, which had no effect.

The confusion arises from the imprecise error message in the Preferences > Performance dialog box, to wit:
OK, that seems to be open to misunderstanding indeed.
The video card: Citrix Systems Inc. Display Driver.
Could not find a list for CS6 specifically, but the card may fall short.
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/tested-video-cards-photoshop-cs5.html
If I invoke View > Proof Colors, the only thing that changes is that the text in the brackets
Also if you set View > Proof Setup to something different?
Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)?

Problem with image url

Hello,
today I have a problem with image url. I wanted Image to change when mouse dragged over it. But nothing happened. Any ideas?
def maxIco: ImageView = ImageView{
image: Image{
url: "{__DIR__}ikony/max.png"
onMouseDragged: function(event: MouseEvent){
maxIco.image = Image{
url: "{__DIR__}ikony/max2.png"
}

This is working for me:
src/main/Main.fx
src/main/icon/image1.bmp
src/main/icon/image2.bmp
//Main.fx
package main;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.Scene;

import javafx.scene.image.ImageView;
import javafx.scene.input.MouseEvent;
var changed = false;
def imgView: ImageView = ImageView {
    image: Image {
        url: "{__DIR__}icon/image1.bmp"
    onMouseDragged: function (e: MouseEvent): Void {
        if (not changed) {
            imgView.image = Image {
                url: "{__DIR__}icon/image2.bmp"
            changed = true;
            println(imgView.image.url);
    onMouseReleased: function (e: MouseEvent): Void {
        imgView.image = Image {
            url: "{__DIR__}icon/image1.bmp"
        changed = false;
        println(imgView.image.url);

Problems with image scaling

I'm facing a real problem with image scaling
I've used several algorithms but it all has defects but the most common thing is the out of memory error after several enlargments...
does any one know a solution...
note:
I've used several packages to do so,but I'm looking for a solution from the jdk itself
JAlexscorpio

Did you take into account that the getScaledInstance() -method creates a completly new Image?
So if you use it like in
ImageIcon icon1=new ImageIcon("Blah.gif");
ImageIcon icon2=new ImageIcon(icon1.getImage().getScaledInstance(400,400,SCALE_FAST);
you will end up with 2 different Images which have their own data and memory requirements.
even if you use something like
ImageIcon icon1=new ImageIcon("Blah.gif");
Image i=icon1.getImage();
icon1.setImage(i.getScaledInstance(200,200,SCALE_FAST));
You will need enough memory to store the data for the original image, as well as the data for the scaled
version of the image, at least for the time that it take the JRE to create the scaled version. You never know when the garbage collector kicks in to delete you old data so it could be that this takes some time and until
that moment your memory is not available. If your now doing several of the scaling operations, and there is no chance for the garbage collector to do its work, you will run out of memory.
I hope that might help, if not feel free to post again

I have problems with office for mac screen resolution, specially with excel

I have problems with office for mac screen resolution, specially with excel ?

For starters, make sure to Check for Updates on any of the Help menus, and make sure the product has all the latest patches. MS did come out with a patch addressing the display issues on Retina Macs. Latest patchlevel is 14.3.2.
We are talking about Office:Mac 2011, right?

Experiencing problem with image display in LR5

I have an intermittent problem with images displaying and exporting in LR. It just began a couple of months ago and is totally random - will do it with RAW (CR2) or JPG. It displays this way in all modules - Library, Develop, Slideshow....The image displays fine in a non-Adobe image viewer (Faststone or Windows Viewer). I've reloaded LR5 and PSCC and is still persists. I know the image file is fine. It also has begun effecting older images that were showing up just fine a while ago. I just loaded about 200 images and maybe 3 or so have this viewing problem in LR & PS. Has anyone else experienced it and have a suggested fix? My graphics card has the latest drivers and shows no problems with other applications. Here is the same image - one a jpg export from Lighroom, the other a save as jpg from Faststone. HELP!

This is almost always a hardware problem, causing corruption of the file. The difference you see between Lightroom and other software is that Lightroom is accessing the full RAW image, while the other software is trying to read the embedded JPG preview.
To figure out exactly what hardware is the problem, you need to try different transmission paths and hardware ... different camera cards, different card readers or USB cables/USB ports, different hard disks, etc. Eventually you should be able to isolate the problem.

My daughter's older Ipod Touch is having a problem with images becoming pixilated when taken from an e-mail and placed into her camera roll. ( She wants to put on Instagram ) Any help?

My daughter's older Ipod Touch is having a problem with images becoming pixilated when taken from an e-mail and placed into her camera roll. ( She wants to put on Instagram ) Any help?

I think that may be a consequence of the email provider she is using. Some services (AOL is one example) inspect and modify email attachments, particularly photos, resulting in reduced resolution compared to the email that was sent.
The iPod does not do this. The resolution of the picture in the email she receives will be identical to what is imported.
