Problems displaying photos

My new VAIO doesn’t display photographs  properly. For example, there are color changes in the shadowed portions  of portraits, so that the shadowed side of the face looks pink instead  of skin color. The same problem appears in landscape  pictures – the colors of the shadowed portions are not correct. The  problem occurs in Photoshop CS5, Firefox, and Windows Photo Viewer but  not in Paint, for some reason. Does anyone have a solution? I work a lot  with photo processing so it is really important for me to fix this  problem ASAP. Thanks in advance!

In addition to changing the monitor profile to sRGB as suggested, check your display imaging at this website:
http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/
Pay particular attention to the Contrast, Gamma Calibration, Black Level, White Saturation, and Gradient (banding) tests. You can use this site as a "poor man's" monitor calibrator, but it won't help you to set accurate screen color temperature or luminance level. Any hardware monitor calibrator will do that for you and adjust your screen for more accurate colors. I wouldn't use Lightroom without one, since you are making your “visual" image adjustments with an unknown frame of reference!
You have severe posterization in the shadow area of the posted screen capture. This might be due to a bad monitor profile, graphics driver, Windows Display Setup issue, or simply a problem with these pictures. The Langom website tests will tell you more.

  • Problems displaying photo

    Hi All,
    In the first place, I've already searched for this topic and I didn't find any suitable solution, maybe that's because I'm a newbie.
    Windows XP
    Oracle XE 11.2
    APEX 4.0.2.00.09
    It is a school application. 3 Pages.
    Page 1: login
    Page 2:
    HTML Text with an automatic row fetch sowing pupils data, also there is an item DISPLAY IMAGE called P2_DISPLAY_FOTO that reference the actual database column containing the BLOB, everything works great.
    I can see the pupils data with corresponding photo.
    There is a button (named TEST) that will redirect to Page 3.
    There is an After Region Computation that will store
    the BLOB information into a hidden item called P3_DISPLAY_FOTO. This is a pl/sql Function Body, and this is what it does:
    return '<img src="'||apex_util.get_blob_file_src('P2_DISPLAY_FOTO',:P2_ALUMNOS_DNI)||'" />';
    P2_ALUMNOS_DNI is the primary key for the table containing the BLOB column.
    Page 3:
    This page will be used to perform some calculations for the chosen pupil from Page 2, and I need to show data from previous Page 2, such as Name, Last Name, and PHOTO.
    The thing is, I DO NOT WANT TO ACCESS DATABASE AGAIN TO GET THE BLOB and name and last name, I'm trying to avoid unnecessary database queries.
    There is no problem to show again pupil name and last name. But I cannot display the corresponding photo.
    In order to display the photo again, this is what I did:
    - I created a subregion as html text with shortcuts
    - defined as region source = &P3_DISPLAY_FOTO.
    wich has been set on Page 2 after region computations
    Well, it does'n work, the sub region will show the following string:
    <img src="apex_util.get_blob_file?a=103&s=326193120935733&p=2&d=7366714062123782&i=8726421562708554&p_pk1=20912349&p_pk2=&p_ck=0B5CD62FA1A56005CA6AB150510F60C3" />
    The strange thing is:
    I tried to replace the region source
    &P3_DISPLAY_FOTO.
    for
    <img src="apex_util.get_blob_file?a=103&s=326193120935733&p=2&d=7366714062123782&i=8726421562708554&p_pk1=20912349&p_pk2=&p_ck=0B5CD62FA1A56005CA6AB150510F60C3" width = "200px" />
    and it works.
    I also tried to define the sub region with region source=
    htp.p('<div class="sparepartImgContainer">');
    htp.p('&P3_DISPLAY_FOTO.');
    htp.p('</div>');
    but it doesn't work either.
    Hope my explanation is clear.
    I'll try testing some other ideas in the meanwhile...
    any ideas will be appreciated.
    Thank you
    Regards.
    Found how to fix this.
    On Page 2, I changed the P3_DISPLAY_FOTO computation
    from
    return '<img src="'||apex_util.get_blob_file_src('P2_DISPLAY_FOTO',:P2_ALUMNOS_DNI)||'" />';
    to
    return ' '||apex_util.get_blob_file_src('P2_DISPLAY_FOTO',:P2_ALUMNOS_DNI)||' ';
    And I changed Page 3 sub region region source
    from
    &P3_DISPLAY_FOTO.
    to
    <img src=&P3_DISPLAY_FOTO. />
    Now everything works great.
    Sorry to disturb you all.
    Regards

  • Apple TV:  Problems displaying photos properly

    I have sync'd the Apple TV to my "My Pictures" folder. For some reason when viewing a slideshow of these photos some of them that are shown in "portrait" on my computer are displaying in "landscape" on the tv. I'm stumped on how this happened and what to do to correct it. It doesn't turn all photos to landscape so I don't know what is unique about the ones it has done that to. Any ideas for me? It's driving me nuts!
    Thanks!

    These are probably JPGs.
    Photos are either truly portrait i.e. they're saved from an editor with data organised in this orientation, or have their orientation set by various flags.
    Many cameras will set a 'flag' to indicate the camera was held portrait during shooting but not all do.
    Resaving JPGs as portrait will usually recompress them losing quality due to reordering rows and columns, but there is a flag in the JPEG header that can control orientation without affecting the data and is referred to as lossless rotation, and some software can change this setting.
    If an image is truly Portrait then it should show ok on AppleTV.
    The potential problem lies with the other 2 methods.
    Sometimes only the manufacturer's display/editing software knows that a shot was portrait (due to a manyfacturer's flag in the EXIF data) - consequently it shows it ok, but other apps or devices still think it's a landscape image.
    I can't remember if AppleTv handles lossless JPEG rotation or not.
    Windows XP's image preview rotation function isn't lossless (last time I used it anyway), so any photos rotated with that should show as portrait.
    Can you remember how you rotated images to portrait, or if the viewing software on XP just knew they were?
    A portrait image could also have a rotation flag set that makes it show landcsape even when it isn't.

  • Hard drive noise & problem displaying photos

    I have a 2 day old Ipod Video. I uploaded photos and when I try to display them, the hard drive vibrates slightly and makes noise. Plus, it takes forever for the Photo Library to load. I do not have this problem playing music or videos. Sounds like I may need to return it. Any input would be appreciated.

    It is normal for the library to take long to load sometimes, depending on how many photos you have. Happens to mine too once in awhile. Are pictures totally not loading or are they just taking awhile to load?

  • Problem Displaying Photos Attached to an Email

    On my U530, I cannot display  a photo that is sent to me as an attachment to an email.   When I click on the photo, I am taken to Lenovo Photos and the photo is not displayed, not can I figure out how to display it.  Is there a way that I can just display the photos in some other manner?

    Try downloading the photo/photos and determine the type (that is png, jpeg, etc.). Try openning it with other program (you can use paint) by right clicking the photo file and choosing the other program if it can't be  open by Lenovo Photo.

  • Photo problem display

    Anyone here encountered any problem uploading photos in your Nano?
    Mine, after uploading the photos it did not displayed properly. It looks/shows like negative film.
    I tried to sync it to my pc w/o Itunes (10) and was able to view the photos correctly. (full colors)
    Any help will be very much appreciated. Thanks!

    I'm also extremely disappointed with that feature. They may as well just called it "Inverted"

  • A few questions re displaying photos (Am I missing something?)

    I am a Windows XP user with a brand new AppleTV. I'm generally happy with it but am not impressed with the way it handles photos. Am I mistaken or is there no way to do the following?
    - View subfolders of photos individually (it would seem not, based on others posts here.)
    - View a slideshow that spans more than one folder.
    - Set up a selective slideshow in advance (like a music playlist.)
    - View thumbnails of the images in a folder, and go directly to the one I want to see.
    - Jump ahead several photos in a folder instead of having to page through every single one.
    - Zoom in on a portion of a photo that I have paused.
    - Browse photos from the hard disk without syncing them.
    - View photos by metada (EXIF tags, maybe.)
    I know some of the above are a bit of a stretch, but others seem pretty straightforward. Is it really so hard to display a page of thumbnails? My cheap digital camera does it when I hook it up to my TV. Am I missing some way to do any of the above? What are the odds Apple will enable them in a future update? Thanks.

    I totally agree with regard to the Auto/Advanced modes. Maybe the entire idea of streaming/browsing photos from the HD could be buried in the Advanced mode and hence never be an issue for those who want to retain the interface's initial simplicity.
    It seems like looping could be added so easily. I used to keep my photos in folders arranged by year (2008), containing subfolders of months (2008_01, 2008_02, etc.) which in turned contained subfolders for each day (20080101, 20080102, etc.) I wanted to be able to view each day's folder individually through AppleTV, so I have moved all the individual "daily" folders into the My Photos root level. This is all well and good (except that scrolling through that many folders is a little clunky*), but it also means that no slideshow can display photos from more than a single day. Adding one option -- "Slideshows span folders: Yes/No" would solve that problem and make it much for flexible for me (and others, I presume.)
    I know, I know, I am attempting to use the device for purposes for which it was not intended. Still, it's a fun little box, especially for the price (and who knew I'd get such a kick out of watching YouTube on my tv?)
    On the other hand, whoever incorporated the 24-hour limitation for watching an entire rented movie must live in a household without little children around, but that's a subject for another thread.
    *Here's a crazy idea: Maybe the basic "Auto" version of the AppleTV should remain exactly as it is, and the full-featured "Advanced" mode require the purchase of an optional advanced remote control that incorporates the famed iPod clickwheel for scrolling quickly through subfolders and/or very long lists of folders?

    Self explanatory.
    You could try creating an iPod version of the films.
    Use CTRL and B to display the Menu bar shown above. Alternatively, use the ALT key, followed by the F key, the W key and finally the I (eye) key - that's (menu)/File/Create New Version/Create iPod or iPhone version.

  • Flash not displaying photos in Flash photo Gallery

    I have several web sites that use a flash photo gallery to display the photos. All worked until a few months ago when the photo were not displayed to users who used Mozilla Firefox, or MAC users using Safari for their browsers. The albums were blank, the thumbnails were blank. Yet if you used Google Chrome or Internet Explorer, all photos displayed perfectly. I have been to the Firefox forums and they point to Flash. I was using Flash 11.5.502.146, then I downgraded to Flash 10.3. To my surprise all photos display now on my Firefox browse V18.0. So there is definitely a problem with the newer Flash displaying photos in a flash gallery. What can be done to fix this?

  • Websites with flash photo galleries do not display photos in firefox.

    I manage several websites that use the 'expose' photo gallery. Expose uses flash to display photos in the photo galleries. When you go to one of these web sites and click on the photo gallery link, the photos are not displayed, the page shows the gallery buttons but no photos. Using Internet Explorer or Chrome browsers, the photo galleries work fine. Here are 3 web sites to view;

    www.applemanart.com - click on art gallery
    www.jewelimages.com - click on any of the gallery links on the left menu
    Do the same with IE or Chrome to see the photos displayed.

    Some galleries are displayed via JavaScript, so if they aren't working the make sure that you aren't blocking JavaScript.

  • Iphoto won't display photo library

    I recently upgraded to iPhoto 9.3.2 and to Mountain Lion on my iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
    I'm not 100% sure when this problem occured, but now, when I open iPhoto, it won't display any photos. All it shows is a note saying "To get started with iPhoto...etc"
    I've tried the following so far:
    - repair permissions
    - disk repair
    - holding down option command when opening iPhoto and choosing repair database and rebuild database (nothing happened on either occasion)
    - tried launching earlier versions of iPhoto from my Time Machine back-up: 9.3.1; 9.3; 9.2.3. Got the same problem with each
    - tried to import photos. Tried several different ones but always, iPhoto would hang on 'finishing import'
    - tried rebuild library in iPhoto Library Manager but I get an error: An error occurred trying to open the database at /Users/MichaelSasha/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Database/apdb/Library.apdb (14)
    I also have a Mac Mini and have successfully upgraded to iPhoto 9.3.2 & Mountain Lion and have no problems with photos. I accessed the Mac Mini from the iMac and copied across a photo and tried to import it on the iMac but got the 'finishing import' hanging issue
    This is really puzzling me! I've exhausted all the options I can think of. Hoping someone out there has any suggestions.

    Did you try restoring an earlier version of you iPhoto Library and see if it would open with iPhoto? If you have with no success then try this:  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If you can create and run a new library then the problem lies with your current library.  And, since you've tried all of the repair fixes the only option left is:
    Start over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1. Open the library package like this.
    2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    3. Drag the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window.
    Click to view full size
    This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
