Reading ProRes4444 Quicktime between AE CS5.5 & Nuke 7.0v8 produces different color results

Please read this first.  THIS IS NOT A GAMMA ISSUE!  I am well aware of the difference between RGB v YUV & 0-255 v 16-235.  It is not a RGB v YUV problem or a 0-255 v 16-235.
I am experiencing a noticeable color shift within highly saturated files.  I am specifically noticing a difference in REDs.  At least witin my current project.
Files are Alexa C-Log.  Edited within FCP.  Graded by BaseLight within FCP.  Comped within NUKE.  Titles added within AE.  Sent back to FCP timeline. 
Here is what I cannot explain.  I can roundtrip the file within Nuke.  I can Read a ProRes4444 file which I can then render out as multiple formats, i.e.  QT ProRes4444, EXR, TIFF, DPX.  I can bring those files back in and create a difference matte which produces pure black (well close enough, small differences in gamma when elevated astronomically).  So apples to apples, color space matches, gamma matches.
Now when I bring these rendered files into AE the image sequences display a different color than the ProRes4444 QTs.  ALL the image sequences match and ALL the ProRes4444 match.  I have tried creating a project with an unmanaged color space as well as a traditional rec709 project color space.  I have also tried intrepreting the PR4444 files different color profiles.  NO amount of variation will allow the PR4444 files to match the image sequences.  I am partial to image sequences, BUT, ProRes files have become standard file types and I would like to resolve this issue.
Any thoughts?
I have tried this:

and this:

Please observe . . . .
TIA

I have more results after further testing. 
Running OS X 10.8.4
AE 10.5.0.253
K5000 GPU
My AE project is setup as a 16bpc, HDTV (rec709), Blend Colors Using 1.0 Gamma, Match Legacy After Effects QuickTime Gamma Adjustments, Compensate for Scene-referred Profiles.
I import a FCP 7 generated QT ProRes4444 file.  The file is rendered as YUV Full Precision with Super-Whites.  In an attempt to round trip the file, I rendered the singular file with no effects back out as a ProRes4444 file with rec709, sRGB or Preserve RGB color profiles.  Once imported back into AE, each of these 3 files matches the original identically.  Quite well actually, even when I turn on difference mode and crank the gamma, they hold up really well.  Nothing perceptually different here.
NOW, when I render out as DPX, EXR or TIFF, I get a completely different result.  EACH image sequence imports identically, so DPX matches EXR matches TIFF.  BUT they are all identically different than the original.  Once again there is a color shift.  NOT a gamma shift, a HUE shift.
I am rendering each file as a rec709 and importing as a rec709. 
What gives?
Here is the kicker, when I switch to my windows box (WIN7 SP1), then open my AEP file.  The colors match identically across all files & formats!!!  I literally set my OS X AE comp to solo 2 layers on difference mode.  There is a clear difference.  When I open the same file within WIN7, pure BLACK.  NO DIFFERENCE.  Holy crap this is alarming.  Side note, still have the hue shift within NUKE across platforms but it is consistent.
WIN7 64bit SP1
AE 10.5.0.253
GTX680 GPU
I am not going to blame Adobe, since I am almost certain this is an APPLE issue.  I would like to ask the Adobe AE Team, what value is AE reading that Nuke is not?  Is there different QT importers?
Thanks,
Matt

    As far as I know Photoshop can not open Zip files.  If you unzip the zip archive and it contained PSD files.  How do you know they were all saved on a XP system with Photoshop CS5 with max compatibility.  The message you getting seem to be contradicting that.

    I recently loaded OSX mavericks on my Imac. I now find I cannot open any Adobe products from CS5. The error message reads " to open Adobe illustrator CS5.app, you need to install a JAva SE 6 runtime. Would you like to check and install one? I try to install but get the error" download error". As far as i know I'm using Adobe Java 7. None of my CS5 suite works anymore............and i really dont want to upgrade to a monthly cloud service fee as i hate this policy with a passion.

    This goes for Dreamweaver CC on Mavericks!!!!! THANK YOU!
    I couldn't launch Dreamweaver CC. An error told me to install "java se 6 runtime". But when I clicked  OK I got another error telling me there is a network problem! I found this forum post on CS6 products, so I tried the download link, installed java 6 and presto, it worked! Thanks!

  • JPG files unreadable in cover flow and preview but can be read in quicktime

    After upgrading to 10.5 some jpg files (canon 30D shots) can not be shown in cover flow or preview. Also the files will not import in iPhoto (import hangs). The files can be read with quicktime.
    If I press 'get info' for the folder that contains the jpg's the Finder seems to crash, and quickly restarts.
    If I try to open the file in preview, nothing happens (while other jpg's are fine)
    If the files are transferred to another mac running 10.5 the same problem occurs
    Permissions seem to be ok
    Any suggestions?

    My problem is similar.
    Create a file in Illustrator CS3
    Open File in Photoshop CS3
    Save File as JPEG
    - Quicklook - Crashes Finder
    - Get info - Crashes Finder
    - Drag into Mail - nothing happens
    - Open in Preview - nothing happens
    - Open in Photoshop - all ok
    Workaround - Open file in photoshop and Copy and paste into a new document.
    Guess that strips out some Metadata.
    This is also what caused a Numbers.app file from opening - the document had a jpeg imported. Solved by showing package contents on the numbers file and deleting the offending jpeg.
    This is reproducible on 10.5, 10.5.1, Intel and PPC systems.

  • HP ColorLaserJet CP3505X - Relationship between different Color Options

    Hi everybody,
    I know this is not exactly the right forum to ask this question, but I've put up the question in the HP Laserjet forum as well as in the Photography forum here and have not received any answer to it. Maybe somebody out here can answer it out of experience with a HP Color Laserjet printer:
    Can anybody explain the relationship/interaction between the different Color Options (e.g. in the PCL6 driver) of the CP3505X to me?
    Options available:
    1) Driver Properties
    Color Management:
    Automatic
    ManualDefault Color Profile
    2) Printing Preferences
    Advanced Tab:
    ICM Method
    Disabled
    Handled by Host System
    Handled by Printer
    Color Tab:
    Color Themes
    Default (sRGB)
    Image Optimization
    Adobe RGB
    None
    Custom Profile
    What kind of profiles are involved when printing output from an application in which case? The manual is very unspecific about this
    For example:
    Under which circumstances is the profile specified under Manual Color Management in the Driver Properties used? And is it the only correction applied under those circumstances?
    What profile is being applied when "ICM Handled by Printer" is chosen in the Printing Preferences?
    Under which circumstances are the Color Themes specified under the Color Tab used, and under which circumstances are they ignored?
    I am completely confused an would appreciate any explanation.
    Thanks

  • Okay so i have been trying to contact apple for days now but i was just thinking why do we have to only choose between white or black for the digitizer? would i be able to send my ipod into apple to get it customized to a different color besides that?

    Apple does not offer custom colors. I'd suggest you get a skin for your iPod. Those are available in hundreds of colors and patterns and since they're not permanent, they don't affect the iPod's warranty and you can change if you ever get tired of the skin you chose.

  • Best PC to buy for Photoshop CS5, Premiere Elements and Proshow Producer

    I am looking for a new PC to replace my 10 year old one.
    This would be used primarily for Photoshop CS5, Lightroom, Premiere Elements and Proshow Producer.
    I am thinking of going to Digital Storm to get one of their top line gaming machines with Sandybridge cpu, high end video card and at least 16 to 32 gb Ram
    (although I do not play games on the pc}.
    Is this overkill, or would a different kind of PC be better?
    what do you recommend?

  • Illust CS5 Profiles Match but Pantones Print Differently

    Ok. I have a problem with colors not matching between Illustrator CS5 documents. I am often emailed documents with pantone colors selected in them. Later, sometimes I need to create another document using those same pantone colors. The problem is, these two documents print the pantone colors differently. In fact, on my screen the file colors look different side-by-side. I figured it was a color settings or color profile issue, so I went in and checked both files. Everything was the same (Working CMYK: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2, Settings North America General Purpose 2, CMYK Preserve Numbers (Ignore Linked Profiles)) . When I paste pantone samples from one document into the other, they match what's in each other's documents, but the two documents themselves don't look the same and don't print the same.
    What color setting could I be overlooking to cause this difference? I don't particularly care if they match on-screen, but it's the fact that they actually print different colors from the same pantone swatch that is the trouble. A blue pantone from one file will print purple from a different file.

    When pasting from one doc to another, watch to see if the color shifts if so swatches palette flyout >> spot colors and set both docs to the same option. Though LAB is more accurate and the way they want you to go in CS6, you are in CS5  documents and prefer to stay with the classic option of "Use CMYK..."
    If you copy from Doc A into Do cB, and they color shifts: print >> color management >> color handling on both docs.
    Aslo make sure both docs are in document Color Mode >> CMYK

  • Lllustrator and Photoshop display different colors despite synchronized CS5 Color Settings

    I've got some students who noticed that Illustrator and Photoshop display completely different colors on screen for eactly the same RGB values despite Color Settings being synchronized.
    Settings are:
    CSF: North American Web/Internet  (RGB color space = sRGB),
    Proof Set-up: Internet Standard sRGB
    Proof Colors turned On.
    RGB Values:  R=0  G= 162  B=211
    But colors displayed are not close between Ai and Ps.
    With Proof Colors turned off, both apps display the colors reasonably closely.
    I teach Photoshop and Print Color Management, so I admit my knowledge of how Illustrator handles screen proofing and proof set-ups for screen destinations is not comprehensive.
    I expect I'm missing some difference in the two apps' behaviour.
    Any info from anyone experienced in this corner of the field appreciated.
    Cheers
