Proof Setup not an option in View menu

I just downloaded PS Elements 12 (using the 30 trail version prior to purchase) and am unable to find the Proof Setup option in the VIew menu to soft proof my images prior to enlargement. Any suggestions? Thanks

Proofing only exists in the "big" Photoshop.

Set poster frame not an option in View menu

Do you need QuickTime Pro just to be able to set a poster frame for a particular .MOV file? I have read on the internet that other people find this option in the View menu, but it doesn't show up for me. I have Lion installed.
Thanks!

I have an amazingly simple solution that worked for me:
Open the video in quicktime and press cmd+c on the frame of your choice. Then right click the video file in he finder and choose "Get Info" press cmd+v and the poster frame will be fixed.
I do not have Quicktime Pro, so this will work on hopefully any version of Quicktime.
It appears that different people have different definitions of a "Poster Frame." This gentleman is referring to the icon image displayed at the Finder level rather than a true "Poster Frame" as can be designated by QT 7 Pro, iWeb, or iTunes apps. The icon display to which he is referring can be created by either by pasting a copied frame to the "Info" window as described above or by dragging and dropping an image file (of compatible dimensions and format) directly to the "Info" widow icon area.
As to the creation of a designated "Poster Frame," if you do not have QT 7 Pro or no longer use iWeb, then your can create a "Poster Frame" using iTunes. Simply open the file in the iTunes player, locate the frame you want designated as the "Poster Frame," control-click the player window to open the context menu, and select the "Set Poster Frame" option. If the video does not already have a "Cover Art" image associated with it, the designated poster frame will be used as the cover art image but not adopted as the file icon image. If the file already has an external image associated with it as cover art, then the cover art image is used for both the cover art and the file icon image but the "Poster Frame" will still be recognized by applications that recognize/use this designation.

Record Options in View menu is not visible / available

Hi,
I've installed Labview 2.5 many times on my computer and I can't reach "Record Options" in the menu "View".
What can I do to have "Record Options" ?
Best regards,

Hi,
Do you mean that
you have LabVIEW Signal Express 2.5? I’ll be really surprised if you have LabVIEW

Manage Pre-orders is not an option in View My Account

I would like to cancel a pre-order. The Help instructions say, "To cancel pending pre-orders, choose Store > View My Account, and click Manage Pre-orders." When I go to View My Account, 'Manage Pre-orders' isn't there. What do I do?

Yes, I clicked on the price in an odd way and discovered this. Apparently I didn't know that I wanted to buy my entire wish list one song at a time. Silly me, and I thought I had other things to do with my time. Guess I'll be spending a little estra time with apple feedback tonight too.

I have added the Comcast toolbar and it shows as an addon in the tools menu but I cannot get the menu to appear. It is not listed in the view menu under toolbars either. Help!

I have uninstalled the comcast toobar several times and then reinstalled it to no avail.

Is it possible and how to create bright preview mode for a custom Proof Setup

You know how there is Proof Setup preview modes under the View menu. Can I create a custom preview mode so that when I choose it and press Ctrl + y it shows the image very bright without changing it.
I need this because I want to see and edit more details in the dark areas which I may not be seeing on my monitor or room lighting conditions and thus to create images with more rich and dynamic shading in the darks so when viewed on brighter monitors or when levels are eventually changed the darks reveal nice shading instead of flat black.
I'm looking for per image solution that doesn't affect other images or applications like using global gamma.
I'll greatly appreciate your help

That's what I use Adjustment layers but they are a big pain because the color picker can't disregard them. So every time I want ot use the color picker I have to hide the adjustment layer and then when I paint I have to enable it again. I want a color picker that picks from all but not the adjustment layer. This makes this workflow impossible. I need this for painting artworks from scratch.
There are no two equal monitors out there and some are quite off, so I want to create artworks that look as good as possible on all kinds of monitor including miscalabrated ones.These are samples to sell artwork. Not only that but the artwork often is edited from other designers not by brush repainting but using global adjustments like levels. And I don't want to use 32 bit workflows. What I'm asking will serve the purpose perfectly.
I feel that since PS pulls the preview information from profiles that probably reside in files somewhere, I can modify a copy of a profile and I was hoping if someone here knows more details about this and helps.
Thanks anyway

Smart View menu bar option not showing in Word

Hello,
Recently had Smart View (11.1.2) installed on my PC. I can see the Smart View menu bar option in all office products except Word (2003). Any suggestions as to how to get this to show?
Thanks in advance.

You need to ensure the COM add-in is enabled. File > Options > Add-in.
If it's not shown, you will need to manually add the add-in referencing the HsAddin.dll from the Smartview\bin directory.

Which Proof Setup view to use?

When I'm in Photoshop and I go to View>Proof setup... which one should I have checked to make certain I'm getting correct colors etc. for the image I"m working on? I want that image look the same to me as it's going to look when I send it to the lab for prints or put it on a website or whatever. I know if it's say a business card my proof setup is on CMYK but if it's portraits I'm working on, should it be Windows RGB or Monitor RGB or what? Then, if I"m going to save a version for the web should I change that view and if so to what? The whole thing could drive you crazy! I"m running Windows Vista 32 bit home premium version and Photoshop CS4.

Oh, my mistake... I'm not converting them, I'm using "assign profile".
When I use the "convert" profile there's very little change in the look of
the image. What's the difference?
But you mentioned in your previous posts that you have Photoshop set to ask "what do you want to do" when opening images with mismatched profiles. If that's the case, there is no "assign profile" options there. There you can only "convert", leave as is, and discard profile. You can assign profiles from the Edit menu though.
Well, so far no one has an idea what exactly you do with your images and in order to understand what's going on, you have to go through the usual process of what you do and pay close attention to each step you are making, take notes, and try to describe it as accurately as possible. Do not tell what you do based on memory because you may not be aware of what exactly you have done.
"Assign" keeps the original color values but changes the color appearance. For example, it keeps the same RGB numbers of the colors in the file but changes the RGB numbers your video card is using to display these colors, and you see a color shift. This is useful when you have an image without a color profile or wrong color profile and you know what profile describes the color space used for creating the image .
"Convert" changes the color values but keeps the appearance. The RGB numbers coming from the video card don't change but the color values in the file change. This is the ultimate goal of color management - to make different devices display or produce the same color while changing the color values of the image to compensate for the differences of each device.

... So what's the reason you use these different profiles for various companies

what the printed images will look like?
Read my explanation of "Convert" above as an answer to your question
lesrenee wrote:... What about when I get an ICC profile like from Costco and I want to see what it will look like if I send it to them. Do I convert it to the

MPIX sent me their profile too. So should I convert it to their profile
before sending it to them or leave it as a sRGB??
You convert to that profile. Photoshop will convert the numbers describing the colors in the file in order to match the intended colors to the color reproduction capabilities of the destination device, and by using the profile of the destination device, Photoshop can display colors unchanged or as close as possible on your monitor by using the monitor profile installed in your Windows system.

Photoshop Script - save as PDF, how to programmatically use "Use proof setup" option

Hello,
I'm trying to create a jsx script for Photoshop CC that will automaitically convert the given file to PDF format. The requirement is that the PDF must be saved using two options available on "Save as" dialog:
- Use proof Setup: Working CMYK
- ICC Profile: U. S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2
(screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/hnnVejK5)
I couldn't find any examples on the Internet. I experimented a bit and created the following script, it saves the pdf, but it does not seem to use the mentioned options.
app.displayDialogs = DialogModes.NO
var fileRef = File("C:\\test\\7000_tif_colors.tif")
var docRef = app.open(fileRef)
var fileName = "C:\\test\\7000_tif_colors.pdf"
pdfFile = new File(fileName)
pdfSaveOptions = new PDFSaveOptions()
pdfSaveOptions.PDFCompatibility = PDFCompatibility.PDF14
pdfSaveOptions.downSample = PDFResample.NONE
pdfSaveOptions.colorConversion = true
pdfSaveOptions.profileInclusionPolicy = true
pdfSaveOptions.embedColorProfile = true
pdfSaveOptions.destinationProfile = "U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2"
pdfSaveOptions.preserveEditing = false
pdfSaveOptions.layers = false
pdfSaveOptions.outputConditionID = "Working CMYK"
docRef.saveAs (pdfFile, pdfSaveOptions, true, Extension.LOWERCASE)
docRef.close (SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES)
Thank you in advance for any help.

Soft Proofing: View Proof Setup Custom: Profile Disappears when Re-opened

Photoshop CS6 on Mac
Edit an image file and get it to where I like on the monitor
Duplicate the file and set the new file to the profile for the printer which will be used, by using View > Proof Setup > Custom and setting an imported printer profile for the printing company that I use.
As soon as you do that, the file looks like crap, so...
Edit the soft proof file to get it to where it looks good again.
Save off the file for the printer and also save the new PSD file.
Close the PSD file.
Reopen the new (soft proofed) PSD file.
Still looks good, but.... when you check View > Proof Setup it's now generally set to Custom: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2 instead of to the imported printer profile which was set previously. WHY???? Where did the printer profile go? Is it supposed to do this?
If I then reset View > Proof Setup to the correct printer profile, the image goes to crap again.
Is this me doing something wrong, or is the PSD file not properly remembering the printer profile, or... what's going on here?
Thanks much!

None of what you write makes any sense whatsoever to me, sorry.
Let's start by using correct terminology. For the last time, you are not "importing" any freaking profile. Wrap your head around that once and for all, please.
Let me try once again, totally disregarding the scenarios you were unsuccessfully attempting to describe above. Forget all that mumbo jumbo for now, please.
You have not mentioned what your working space is, so let's assume it's Adobe RGB.
You have finished editing an image, so now you have an AdobeRGB-tagged image. Fine.
Now you want to soft proof it to see what it will look like in that FujiWonderPrinterInAlaskaUsingMatteThaiElephantPoopPaper printer in Anchorage. (Made up names of course.)
So you make a duplicate COPY of your finished image file named BabyPictForPrint.psd. You're still in Adobe RGB, of course. You put the original away in a safe and forget about it—forever. That's like your negative in film days.
Now you soft proof the BabyPictForPrint.psd COPY by using the infamous FujiWonderPrinterInAlaskaUsingMatteThaiElephantPoopPaper.icc profile the outfit in Alaska sent you.
When you soft proof it with that Alaska profile, you have not imported anything. Photoshop is simply using the profile you pointed it to to show you in your monitor what it would look like. Your pixels so far are untouched, yet yo see your image "die" before your very eyes. Ouch! Now you need to compensate for the effect of printing under those proposed conditions, so you set about the task of editing the copy accordingly. Remember, you're still in Adobe RGB.
Once you have the copy just the way you like it, YOU SAVE ALL YOUR CHANGES in that copy. Now you have a fully edited image file in the Adobe RGB space but tweaked to look fine when printed in the FujiWonderPrinterInAlaskaUsingMatteThaiElephantPoopPaper printer.
At that point you are done! Finished!
Now you are faced with two choices:
A) Sending the finished, saved ADOBE RGB COPY to your printer if you consider him capable of knowing what he's doing. (If you think he does not know his business, look for another printer). Or…
B) Assume you're dealing with a moron on the other end who wants the image CONVERTED to his custom FujiWonderPrinterInAlaskaUsingMatteThaiElephantPoopPaper.icc. If that is the case, then open your COPY in Photoshop, go to the Edit menu > CONVERT to Profile… and convert the copy to the infamous FujiWonderPrinterInAlaskaUsingMatteThaiElephantPoopPaper.icc profile. It's critical to use CONVERT TO Profile, not "Assign Profile"!
At that point, under scenario B), you do not EVER want to return to Proof View / Soft Proof mode, ever, EVER again, because then you would be applying the profile doubly and you'd see your image die before your eyes once again, and if you edited it you'd have real elephant poop!
Hope that helps.

Xcelsius 2008 Object Browser not Visible but checked on View menu

I have lost the Object Browser window. It is checked on the View menu. Even when I first start up Xcelsius it is not visible. Does anyone have any idea how to make it visible again?
Thanks,

Hi Karen,
Can you goto view and uncheck the option for Object browser and then re-check it again?
Also let me know if this behaviour is happening from the time you have installed the product?
Thanks,

Why does the pop up blocker bar not always give you the option to view a blocked pop up?

Usually when Firefox notifies you that a pop up has been blocked it gives you the option to view the blocked pop up. However, sometimes that option is not there. Typically this isn't a problem at all but once in a while there will be a pop up that I wish to view but there is no option to view it. Does anyone know why the pop up blocker will sometimes give you the fourth option to "Show 'www.blockedwebsite.com'" and sometimes will only give you the three options of "Allow pop-ups for the site", "Edit Pop-Up Blocker Options", and "Don't show this message when pop-ups are blocked"? How can I view a blocked pop-up when it only provides the first three options and not the fourth option to view it? I hope my question was clear enough. Thanks in advance!

It is possible that you run into this maximum (the default value is 20):
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/dom.popup_maximum
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.

SQL Developer: View menu selections Reports and Connections not working

Downloaded latest SQL Developer May 9 updated version and my dropdown selections from the View menu for Connections, and View Reports do not work. However, Snippets does appear when selected. Hate to lose some of the User Defined reports I had created. Any help would be appreciated.

Don't know if I get what you're saying: the entries Connections and Reports from the View menu don't work?
On top of the connection tree, if you get one, aren't there the two tabs with these options?
If you're unable to view the whole tree, you're installation would be corrupted. Install from scratch in a separate folder, first without migration to see if that resolves the issue. Then you could do the same with migration to retrieve all previous settings and connections.

Custom cmyk profile not in proof setup

Working with Blurb.com Printer Profile CMYK named Blurb_IC_Profile.ICC
Opened profile and saved in Rose/AppData/Local/Adobe/Profile
Cannot bring it up in soft proof setup. Also when I close CS5 and reopen the profile is no longer in that location.
I tried to see if the profile would work with changing the cmyk setting in the color settings under edit.
CS5 menu comes up and states not a good working cmyk profile and does not load it.
From what I have read on the Blurb forums people have downloaded this profile and it works. No replies
for 2011, last was 2010.
I wanted to know if there is a special way to load this profile that I'm not aware of as I checked several photoshop sites
to ensure this was the right spot to put the profile in.
I am using Srgb setting for the images and now want to soft proof them in cmyk before sending up to the Blurb they use
4 color press Hp printers.
Thanks
Rose

If you look closely at the image that states blurb profile locked – there is a little golden image of a lock next to the blurb profile and it is locked – similar to what
we see when we open a image for the first time and there is a lock (layer background) so you double click it and then background layer becomes “o” .
I followed your image.png and your profile too. I have watched their video 3 or 4 times. I watched a color management
color flow for an hour in Blurb. But the one hour video is using a Mac instead of Windows and the profile was already
installed on the mac but they showed the process on the mac on where to place it – not windows.
I am doing everything that is shown for windows and where you told me to input the blurb profile,
However, when I close and reopen photoshop I do not see a blurb profile in proof setup.\
The 1 hour color management video shows that the profile is named Blurb.icc but it is not in my
setup for custom proof. That video is done with a Mac and different placement folders.
I can only assume that Blurb.com profile needs to be changed or updated.
I sent emails to them today again and hope to see some answers monday.
There showing a 32 bit profile video instead of 64 bit but you did help me to get the profile in the right spot. It is a very short
video for the download process. two screens to be exact.
They don’t have a phone number or I would call them personally. I have sent emails with pictures today.
Thank you
Rose

Keyword Panel not appearing in View Menu

I am a bit confused. I have viewed two Adobe produced videos that indicate that the panels are supposed to be selectable from the View menu in CS3 Bridge on my Mac.
When I click on my View menu, I do not see panels listed, only
Compact Mode
Slideshow
Slideshow Options
As Thumbnails
As Details
Show Thumbnail Only
Show Reject Files
Show Hidden files
Show Folders
Sort>
Refresh
But the videos show additional menu items that include the panels ie:
Folders Panel
Favorites Panel
Preview Panel
Metadata Panel
Keywords Panel
Filter Panel
Cinema Preview Panel
Inspector Panel
Why am I not seeing the panels under the View menu?

LOL
Could be they used a very early version in the beta cycle to produce this
video and Adobe changed this in the end version? Don't know but it is a nice
blooper...
Thanks for the reply. You seem to be correct, but Adobe Videos indicate
otherwise...
