PS Elements 11 -- Incorrect Colors, color painted not matching color selected -- Help please!

Having a really odd issue with colors. The color that I have in my brush/paint bucket does not match the color that I picked up in my eye dropper/foreground color. Instead it paints out some diluted version of the color I'm using, and I have no idea why. I tried to look up a solution -- I reset the paint brush, all of the tools. And I have no layer styles set on said layers used.
Any ideas how I could fix this? I need too desperately.. And as a side note, I am using RGB for color.

Suggest that you reset the brush tool. On the tool's option bar, look for this:
Click on it to reset the tools. If that does not fix it, go to Edit>Preferences>General and look for for this:
Click on it, close PSE, then open the program.

3D active-x color table does not match color box ctrl values

I am having a problem. I want to allow the user to control the background color and plot colors on the active-x 3D graph in labview 7.1.1. I am using the standard color box ctrls in labview to allow the user to pick, but the colors do not match. When I pick blue (0,0,255), it comes up red (255,0,0). When I choose yellow (255,255,0), it comes up cyan (0,255,255), and vice-versa. Black and white seems to work correctly, as well as green (0,255,0) being right in the middle. I am assuming this means whatever algorithm NI is using to create the color value is not the same from the labview side to the active-x control side. Anybody else run into this, and have a solution?

Thanks John.
Kind of funny, I ran off and built a sub-vi with the exact same guts as the OLE vi, but from looking at what the RGB vi did to break it down.
I would say though, they need to make a common sub-palette to deal with color issues. They have the same two RGB VIs located in two different spots, and this OLE one is in yet another. I think I would have looked under the Active-X sub-palette before I looked under the 3D graph palette (mainly because those are junk anyway, they barely give you any functionality).
Anyway, problem solved, thanks again.

How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info

How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info...

If your device is signed into an old ID of yours that is an earlier version of the ID you want to sign in with, do the following:
If you are using iMessage and FaceTime, make sure you are signed into these services with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library). When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

Oops! The email or password did not match our records. Please try again.

On Sunday March 30, 2014 I was trying to purchase a new computer from the Best Buy website. I added the computer to my cart and clicked checkout. I was asked to log into my best buy account and after clicking sign it I was informed that I need to update my password. I created a new password and it took me back to MyBestBuy page. I clicked on the shopping cart again and clicked checkout. It again asked me to log in to my account. This time I was given an error: Oops! The email or password did not match our records. Please try again. I changed my password two more times after that and still had the same problem.
I finally called Best Buy and the lady I talked with sent me a reset password request which did not work. She informed her supervisor and was told there are issues with the website and ordering online. She tried to order the items in my cart and could not proceed as well.
I was then transfer to the Sales department where Jacqueline assisted me in getting my order purchased. She also sent me a request to reset my password but it is still having the same problem. I change the password and the next time I log it I get the following error: Oops! The email or password did not match our records. Please try again.
The worst part about this whole experience was on Wednesday 04-02 I received an email from Best Buy that stated Please call us, there is a problem with you order. I called the 1800 number listed on the email and spoke with an associate who informed me the reason for the email was I did not have sufficient fund for the purchase that I made today. The problem: I did not make any purchase on 04-02. The associate asked if I would like to be transfer to the fraud department and I said yes. The woman that I spoke with was very polite and we cancelled my account and I have a new card on the way. (I forgot to mention that I used by Best Buy Credit Card)
I think that there is a serious issue with your website and because of the problem my credit card information was stolen.
I have been a loyal best buy shopper buying all of my electronic from TV's, cellphones, computers, movies, etc. After this experience I have lost my confidence in your website and it ability to keep my information safe.
P.S. I have already tried:

Hello KC-2537,
Welcome to the forum!
I can’t begin to imagine how terrifying it’d be to discover an unrecognized purchase on your account, and I’m sorry for any frustration this caused. We take your privacy very seriously which is why you were asked to create a new password when you attempted to log into your account to purchase the computer you wanted. Recently, we’ve implemented a new and stronger security measure that asks our customers to choose more intricate passwords for their www.BestBuy.com accounts. It sounds like your previous password didn’t meet these new requirements and as we wanted to make sure your information is as safe as possible, we asked you to reset it. However, it certainly wasn’t our intention to lock you out of your own account.
After looking through your account using the email address attached the forum, I’m glad to see that the computer Jacqueline assisted you with ordering was delivered to your local store earlier this week. However, I’m worried about your account if it is still locked. As I want to make sure you are able to access this, I’ve sent you an email to reset your password that you should receive shortly. These links are only valid for a short period of time, so let me know if you’re unable to access the message right away. Also, if you don’t receive it, please click the link provided in our Help Center.
If you are still experiencing issues with your online account after using the email or link I’ve provided, please don’t hesitate to let me know. Additionally, I suggest you continue to monitor your credit card and notify the card issuer and local authorities if you notice any further unrecognized activity.
Best Wishes!

The software that you choose does not match the Selected Printer

Hi Friends,
I am trying to install a network Printer suing my Win Xp SP3 PC.
Since there is no drivers installed in this PC, I tried to select Have Disk option in the Bonjour Printer Setup Wizard and selected the INF file provided by the Manufaturer. When i select the INF file and click ok, It prompts with message "The software that you choose does not match the Selected Printer".
But the Manufaturer name is listed under the Manufacturer Tab and nothing on the Model Tab.
Any idea why i am getting this error message. Please help me if anyone is aware of this.

I haven't seen Apple use a "shared secret". and believe this must be a message from the magazine app. I suggest asking the magazine, as this appears not to be an Apple problem.

My Apple desktop computer, 2.4 GHz Intel duo core, OS 10.6.8, stopped recognizing the WD My Book connected via firewire. It works fine with the USB port so it's not the drive. Help please.

It can be the bridge. It could need firmware update. or the FW ports may be an issue. LaCie seemed to invent the phrase/tip 'resetting firewire ports' due to the issues with their drive cases.
You can try an SMC Reset.
So far I have avoided name-brand and tend to see them mentioned. Often with a new OS (though you are on 10.6.8, but when 10.6 came out there was a common complaint and thread of users: FW or USB worked but not the other interface).

Thanks for your answer. Apprciate it very much. Just prior to receiving your email, I got back online. However, as I had tried what you suggested (and a lot more as I am 'reasonably' competent), and had been so doing since yesterday afternoon, I do believe that what you suggested was correct - that it was my third rate ISP that was at fault.
Nevertheless, many thanks once again.

File Sharing lets you transfer files between iPad and your computer. You can share files created with a compatible app and saved in a supported format.
Apps that support file sharing appear in the File Sharing Apps list in iTunes. For each app, the Files list shows the documents that are on iPad. See the app’s documentation for how it shares files; not all apps support this feature.
Connect iPad to your computer.
In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
In the File Sharing section, select an app from the list on the left.
On the right, select the file you want to transfer, then click “Save to” and choose a destination on your computer.
Transfer a file from your computer to iPad:
Connect iPad to your computer.
In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
In the File Sharing section, click Add.
Select a file, then click Choose (Mac) or OK (PC).
The file is transferred to your device and can be opened using an app that supports that file type. To transfer more than one file, select each additional file.
Delete a file from iPad: Select the file in the Files list, then tap Delete.
or use dropbox

Calendar colors on iPhone do not match colors in iCal

I just got a 3G iPhone, and have found that the colors I've assigned to different calendars in iCal do not match their colors on the iPhone. Many of the colors I've chosen in iCal are custom (that is, not available directly from the popup menu, but none of the colors match, and on the iPhone, multiple calendars apparently have the same color (two in blue, two in orange, and two in red).
This is with syncing via iTunes—I don't have MobileMe, fwiw.

Yeah, there is a long thread on this:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7539514&#7539514
You should look it over--you'll find instructions for a clunky work-around (haven't bothered doing it, myself) and the link to leave feedback to Apple to ask them to fix this.

Colors in print preview not matching colors in soft proofing

Hi There,
Just wanted to print a new photo and realized that the colors in print preview do not match the colors in soft proofing. In both cases I selected the same icc profile and rendering method. The print colors matched the colors in print preview. I never had a problem so far. All new prints will be checked with soft proofing and adjusted when necessary. I never paid attention to the color rendition in print preview and all prints perfectly matched the colors from the soft proofing. I was surprised when my print came out of the printer and the colors weren't matching the soft proofing colors, but that of the print preview.
I don't understand why Photoshop renders the colors differently in the first place. Please see attached screenshot for the difference in the blue/cyan colors.
I would appreciate if anybody could point me in the right direction in what is causing this difference. I don't care if the print view colors will match the print, but I do care when soft proofing is not working.
Thank you.
Best regards,
D.

Here are some addtional details:
PS 13.1.2
Mac OS X 10.8.4
12 GB Ram
60 GB free disk space
I printed the same photo from two other computers (MacBook and iMac) with different PS versions (CS4 and CS5). The prints turned out identical to the first one which matches the print preview color rendition on my main computer (MacPro) running CS6. Strangely the colors in print preview of CS5 on the iMac renders the colors identical to the soft proofing colors.
