Strange problem in color

Ok, finally got FCS 2 yesterday, lengthy install, had to erase preferences to get FC to send to Color. Now I'm facing a different problem. I'm geting my sequence into Color, I've worked it down to where it's on one video track, but I'm missing 2/3 of my shots. The sequence was originally editied as a multiclip sequence from 3 cameras. i've gone in and collapsed my multiclips down, but still, all that's showing up in Color are the clips from my first camera.
I've tried reading the manuel (strange, I know) but if it's there, I'm missing it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Strange problem with color measure in Mac.

Hello, I am having a strange problem with color measure in Mac. For example i create a gradient in Photoshop from color 200 200 200 to color 240 240 240. When i measure the color of the gradient with the color measure tool of Photoshop or with the built in OS X color measure tool the measured color is from 200 199 197 to 240 240 238. I have measured the same gradient with Photoshop for PC and the values are OK (the same values that i create).
I dont know what is the problem, but i belive that the colors that i create would be the same that i measure after creating them, and also the same values between Mac and PC. I will appreciate it a lot any help or information that you could give me that helps me to understand what is happening here.
Thank you for your time
Marcelo.

Yep you got it, proof as monitor basicaly strips out any profiling and just delivers it straight.
is there any way to make the OS X color measure tool to measure the original color values
You mean the document colors - No, like I said photoshop is filtering your image through document profile, proof setup and monitor profile. Why do you want to use Digital color meter anyway for this?
i dont understand what is the point to measure color values that will change every time a calibrate my monitor.
Because color values are 'bigger' than whats on your monitor. Your monitor (via photoshop) is only doing the best it can to display those values - which can be anything from LAB colors outside the gamut of your monitor - to CMYK colors. Calibrating it is the only way to allow your monitor to do this in any way accurately. (not ever really possible) Monitors have a certain gamut and are only dispays/representations of the REAL colors that a document, with a profile, holds. So there's only one good reason to measure monitor values, and that's to generate a monitor profile.

Hi
I have a problem with color prints from photoshop elements 12. The pictures are too light and with strange colors. I have a Canon pixma mg615I0 printer and use mac os X yosemite. The pictures are taken with a coanon eos 550d in the color space sRGB. I have followed adobes recommendations and have tried both letting the printer respektive photoshop manage the colors. But nothing works. I see that there are different opinions about which is best to do so I tried both. I have the latest printer driver installed. Can anyone help me with this?

Do the following:
Print a test page from the printer. Perhaps the print head needs cleaning via its maintenance facility.
Let the printer manage colors, not PSE
Calibrate the monitor

HP Color Laserjet 2605dn Strange Problem

Hi all,
I have a strange problem going on,
Whenever I go to print through the network to my 2605dn, PDF printing takes forever. I tried switching to Gutenberg Drivers, up to 5.2.6 . Then I tried using Generic PS 5c, then it printed faster, but would not print color (only grayscale). When I use the default HP 2605DN driver, it prints slow. Does anyone know the solution to this, or an alternative printer driver I can use that will still maintain duplex, and high memory. Windows machine print fast and normally.
Thanks.

PDF can contain allot of information; for instance I can print a 20 page text document in the time it takes to print some 2 page PDFs. Just as an example, I could make a PDF the size of a business card with so much detail that it takes 30 minute to print.
have you tried printing the PDF on another printer? if so, dose it take a while on that printer as well?

Computer slower and a few other strange problems since upgrading to SL

Hi all,
About a month ago, I upgraded my mid-2009 MBP to SL. I'm now on 10.6.1. Ever since the upgrade, my computer's been somewhat slower than it was when I ran Leopard (although many people I know say their machines are faster). I did restart several times at one point, and that seemed to speed it up, although it still experiences delays I didn't have before. I've also had a bunch of strange issues:
1) Safari is most noticeably slow, especially when using something like Top Sites on Safari 4. I alleviated this problem somewhat by setting new tabs to open a blank window rather than Top Sites, but even so, Safari is generally slower, gives me 'pinwheels' often, and also is less stable.
2) The other day, I restarted to find that all fonts except system fonts had been mysteriously deactivated. As a designer, I rely heavily on my many fonts, which I manage using Linotype FontExplorer.
3) Today, I opened my computer up after having it sleeping in a backpack, and it had turned off. It was not out of battery; it had just turned off for no apparent reason.
4) Judging by Activity Monitor, RAM is being used somewhat more heavily by the system, contrary to the advertisements of a 'lighter' footprint for SL as compared to Leopard. However, according to Activity Monitor (which I check frequently), the processor does not appear to be getting taxed any more heavily than under Leopard, which makes the sluggishness more inexplicable.
5) Yesterday, I could not get my computer to recognize my Time Machine backup disc. After restarting, it worked, but this is a pain.
I appreciate any advice I can get. Does anyone else have similar problems or solutions? Or is the general consensus that these are SL bugs that Apple will work out by about 10.6.4 or so?
Thanks,
Nathan

I began this thread awhile ago, but the essence of it is that I had a number of strange problems, although mostly my computer was just slower, when upgrading from Leo to SL.
I've now wiped my HD and re-installed SL. It seems faster, although there are still a few issues:
1) iWork (Pages, Numbers) has very weird coloring. All the text looks light blue and/or cyan, and I can't fix it.
2) Although initially Safari worked great, lately it's been going back to its habits of being slow and showing strange things like chopping up the 'Top Sites' view, i.e. rendering it in an off way.
3) Adobe CS3 will not install properly. I get them loaded up, but when I try to launch a program, I get an error that says "licensing for this product has stopped working". I cannot get to the 'activate' page, even though I uninstalled and deactivated CS3.
In the interest of full disclosure, I did restore my home account after clean installing SL-- maybe I should have brought the files over folder by folder rather than bringing back my whole home folder with its settings? I wonder if I accidentally brought over Adobe's FLEXnet folder too.
Also, does anyone know if Adobe CS3 can cause these problems with Safari and other programs? It just seems that the whole machine was slower after installing CS3, even though I wasn't running the programs.
Any help is appreciated.

Problems with color matching when printing...

Hi, I work for a small family business in the P.O.P. industry. We currently have myself and one other designer, we both take illustrator files that have come from the graphic design firm that we contract with and get them ready to print on our Vutek QS3200. However ever since acquiring the printer we have begun to run into problems with the colors when printing. When the files are exported off of my computer, I use either .tif or .pdf files, they print as they should, the colors seem to match the proof and everything goes smoothly. However when the other designer exports a file, he tends to do mainly pdfs, the colors tend to be extremely different from where we want them. Also we will get very strange results, such as yesterday he kept getting a faint yellow 1/2" border around his prints. After I believe 3+ hours of him trying, I was given the original CD and instructed to try. After 15-20 minutes of making the changes that we needed to make (adding a new price point) and ripping, mine printed perfectly.
We both use Macs, both have CS3 Design standard, only differences between the computers are mine is newer and a bit faster, and I'm running OS 10.5.6 and he has 10.4. He has also at some point loaded various color profiles, whereas my CS package is just whatever the default is when I loaded it. When we were being trained he grabbed the color profile off of the Colorburst RIP server and loaded onto his computer, plus I believe he has a couple for freelancing purposes on there as well. My thought is that these profiles are somehow corrupting the files that are going through that computer, but I honestly am lost with it at the moment. He believes the problem lies within the fact that he does not have the newer OS, I honestly cannot see that as having any effect on this at all. I was wondering if anyone has run into any similar problems, or if anyone might have any advice on this issue? I would really like to be able to solve this, as I was hired to do mainly structural design for the P.O.P. and I'm having to put in a lot of overtime to get my work done along with the additional work that I'm having to do.
Thanks for your time

I've got a few years experience calibrating large format printers. First, the Yellow sounds like a file problem. I used to work with two workstations, one PC ( RIP station ), and one Mac ( file prep station ). I tend to agree with you in that the OS is probably not the problem. But, any Colorburst profiles should remain in the RIP, not in the originator application. My workflow consisted of creating EPS files that were based on established color settings in their given applications ( i.e., Illustrator, Photoshop ) which were interpreted by the RIP which had it's own calibrated profile ( perhaps more than one based on how many different substrates were being used ). Your partner may be complicating things by incorporating a RIP profile prematurely. If there are deviations big enough to be noticed, there has to be something in the application color settings that is causing some type of corruption. This could lead back to the operating system, but I would think it lies somewhere in Bridge or the application color settings. Start there. You should seriously consider implementing a calibration system if you do not have one already. Another slight possibility is the driver's ability to interpret files coming out of Leopard vs. files coming out of Tiger. It may benefit you both to be in the same operating system dynamics, using the same driver versions and RIP profiles. At the very least, match everything that is currently working successfully and put them on both machines. If there is still a noticeable problem in color matching, then something is seriously wrong and you should call in a prepress profiling expert. Hope this helps.

Strange problem in applet application

Hello Everybody,
I hava an applet whit an image. This image has to changed by color, and text has to be added to the image. The text color is also changable. Here is where it goes wrong.
When I change the background color of the applet, the transparant image will be colored. This is good.
At the start text can be added.
When you change the textcolor, the frame with the JColorChooser will get at the background of the image, like this:
[http://schaftwagen.ncamade.nl/schaftwagenfout.png|http://schaftwagen.ncamade.nl/schaftwagenfout.png] (image)
When you change the text with the "opschrift" button (vertical text) the old text stays under the new text.
When you change the background after this, everything seems to be okay.
At an other forum I've asked this question, and some of that people didn't had this "problem". I am using Windows 7RC with the newest java version. Tested it on an Windows vista and Windows XP all with the same problem.
The source is to big for this forum and can be found at [http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/showtopic117029.htm|http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/showtopic117029.htm]. This is the other forum, where I've asked about his issue. (I hope this link isn't against the rules to post this link to the other forum?)
I hope someone can help me with this problem. The applet can be tested here: [http://schaftwagen.ncamade.nl/colorchooser.asp|http://schaftwagen.ncamade.nl/colorchooser.asp]
Greats,

I've just tested it on different boxes, and sometimes it does work indeed, but sometimes other problems come up. On one the background color doesn't change but the text color does it right and changing the text work also correctly in that case.
Can anyone help me please solving this strange problem?

Strange trouble with Color

I experience strange trouble with Color I can't overcame. I try to export DPX sequences in Color ("manually") without using Final Cut. I navigate in setup room to my folder where the files are stored and after I open that folder there is nothing there at all. I tried different folders as well sometime it opens empty and I have to go back up and open folder again to be able to see the contents. But some folder are never "refresh" always opens empty , but I am 110 present sure there are files in them ( I check in Finder). This starts to happen after 10.5.2 update. I have no idea what to do with this and how to overcame that problem., please help.
My setup is Mac pro 2x2.66Mhz , 3GB Ram, ATI Radeon X1900 video card, 2 Apple cinema displays.
Mac OS X 10.5.2, Color 1.0.2
Thanks!

Let me see if I understand this...
What you are attempting to convey is that you are trying to import .dpx files into COLOR directly and that COLOR does not recognize the files.
My bet would be that there is an issue with the .dpx file format. It may be the way they are written, stored, named, the bit-depth... any number of issues. The fact that they don't show up is COLOR's way of telling you that there is a compatibility problem. My experience is that 10-bit and above is poorly handled at the moment, and is not supported at all by some previous versions of Quicktime and Shake, for example, under Leopard, and not even Tiger .4.11. What I started getting were perfect proxy renditions, but actual rendered material was almost pure noise, except there were shadowy remnants of the original scene.
Consider yourself lucky that the application stopped you at this point, rather than allow the project to go forward, then corrupt after you had devoted a considerable amount of your time and energy to it, then have to go back to fix the original files and do ti all over again, or struggle with reconform, etc.

Strange Problem with Web Object Manager

Hi,
I have a very strange problem with JDev.
When I register a servlet with the Web Object Manager, it does not work (the web server does not find the servlet). This is not the end... If I exit JDev, re-open it and return to the Web Object Manager, instead of the Web Object Manager tree appears a tree labeled JTree with leaves labeled "colors", "sports" and "food"???
No way to recover the Web Object Manager!
I had to re-install JDev.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I am facing a strange problem on new iphone 5 that I bought last week. The maps app and the places in photo gallery shows the pin and my location, however there is no information of locations. Tried to close the apps, phone restart, reset etc. Please help

I am facing a strange problem on new iphone 5 that I bought last week. The maps app and the places in photo gallery shows the pin and my location, however there is no information of locations. Tried to close the apps, phone restart, reset etc. I am accessing it via strong wireless connection and it works fine on other devices. Please help.

Then no information exists. Use the Report a Problem button within the app to report it.

I am having a strange problems on the Data entry Forms

A form that has been used since 2005 in an old version of HFM 3.51 was migrated to SYstem 11.1.2.1 in January of 2012 and has been working since then. Suddenly we start having some strange problems. Our response time has been very slow and I am wondering if there were some problems in any of the services. Maybe a service did not start properly related to the WEB forms.
We entered a number in one of the cell to be: 348336349 as soon as we hit enter, the number was formatted to 348,336,349 but when I submit the number it came back as 3. I tried it several times and it did not work, I checked the scaling and that was set blank. One of my user tried it and it did not work. I tried looking into the Preferences and my screen froze. In the meantime one of my user was able to enter the number and was able to refresh it as well. Then she enter another number on a different cell and the same problem occurred it seemed as if it truncated all the digits except for the left most digit, we are unable to figure out how to resolve this issue. The number entereed in the cell is 826,251,218 it stores 8 and loses the rest of the 8 digits. I right click and checlk the properties and it says that it has stored 8 instead of 826,251,218.
Following is the DEF script. Does anyone has any ideas, I am wondering if I have to restart the services..

Hi,
Did you find a way to solve your problem ? We have exactly the same for one application and we are using the same version of HFM : 11.1.2.1.
This problem is only about webforms. We can correctly input data through Data Grids or Client 32.
Thank you in advance for your answer.

Submitting a form with enter key causing strange problems

I am having a very strange problem with a webapp I am currently developing. I am using JSF 1.2 along with Facelets and RichFaces. I have coded a workflow/wizard 4-step process, and on some pages I have 4 submit buttons that all call different actions on the page. The users thought it would be useful to have the enter key submit the form, so I followed some online resources to trap a keypress using javascript, looking for the enter keycode and calling document.getElementById("elementName").click(). This works fine most of the time. Sometimes, though, it seems as if an entire new session is being created, and odd behavior starts happening. For example, my page will only include 2 of the 4 facelets on the screen -or- I will get NullPointerExceptions for objects that I know have been created in the session bean I am currently using -or- I will get a duplicate form Id after trying to re-submit the page. Could the javascript click simulation not be submitting all of the form elements or is the enter key also acting like its default action (the form submission) in addition to the "click"? I'm really at my wit's end here (plus it's nearly 3 AM, that never helps things). All of the buttons being clicked are standard h:commandButtons. There is some setTimeout logic included to disable the buttons on the page to prevent double clicks (I cannot disable them onsubmit because disabled buttons don't pass the right values, perhaps that's causing it, but if so, clicking the buttons with the mouse would cause that issue too, right?)
I am not posting the code (yet), but if anyone wants to take a look see and see if I am doing something really abhorrently wrong, I'm more than willing to, I'm just curious if anyone has had problems regarding javascript submission of forms via the click() method. Clicking the button does not exhibit this type of behavior. Just as a side note: I am doing different things with the enter key depending if a modal window is open (the enter key closes the modal if it's up, and if not, it submits the form via a button click).
Any help is much appreciated, if anyone has any inkling about where I should start looking for answers it would be really helpful.
Thank you.

You need to suppress the event handling after programmatically clicking the button.

Strange problems on Macbook Pro over past year...

I'm about to do an erase and install after having numerous strange problems on my mid 2009 17" Macbook Pro (Leopard) over the past year, some of which I have opened threads for on these forums.
They are listed bellow to see if anyone wants to give their final two cents as to what is causing them. They may or might not be related.
1) I recently found the "Unknown" user classifications at second from top in the user priveleges for the main Macintosh HD folder and "Local Work" – which is my main folder for work.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2741617&tstart=0
2) Last Summer I had some very strange login problems which were well documented in this very long winding thread here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2485199&tstart=0
3) Can't access iTunes store due to this error code -54. Thread opened here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2653733&tstart=0
4) Some proceses I've seen in the activity monitor that are possibly a little sketchy are as follows:
- "netsessionmac1" ... Akamai playing about?
- "TaskManagerDaemo" ... with "Root" user, ... sounds a bit vague and possible malware according to google?
5) In Skype I get constant warnings of other computers trying to connect from Little Snitch and Virus Barrier. I get so many of them one after they other pausing skype that I can only use Skype with Little Snitch off. I can only use it late at night also as there seems to be more attempts being blocked in virus barrier during the day that I can't even get past the login:
Some examples in screen grabs:
http://oi56.tinypic.com/xkwwtf.jpg
http://oi55.tinypic.com/2v2w941.jpg
And other examples of the hundreds of different IP addresses I've had asking to access computer on some obscure 4 digit port:
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/86.178.52.58
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/94.168.76.16
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/94.171.116.123
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/92.235.196.125
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/92.239.25.70
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/192.168.0.1
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/92.235.208.101
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/92.236.252.132
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/85.15.190.49
... etc
6) I have to constantly open and close Mail after it hangs on sending. Says there is a connection problem on port 110 or whatever, but words fine as soon as I open again. This problem happens particularly when I want to send from my 2nd or 3rd POP or IMAP other than my normal one.
7) Slow Safari/Firefox and internet.
8) I got this strange warning about my IP changing recently when downloading a file:
http://oi53.tinypic.com/2z4b77o.jpg
9) My internet cuts out for large periods of time while the other PC desktop in my house works perfectly fine.
Well, any last suggestions much appreciated. Many thanks.

I suppose your expanding battery problem could have caused some or all of these problems, but most of them sound like software issues.
If I were you I'd try a few things:
1. boot from your snow leopard install disk and repair your startup disk with disk utility.
2. repeat the repairs until no repairs are reported (the toilet paper principle).
3. repair permissions again.
4. if the problems persist, trash the preferences files for the misbehaving apps.
5. if the problems persist, delete the misbehaving apps and reinstall them.
6. it the shutoffs persist, try a PMU reset.
7. a PRAM reset would probably be a good idea too.
8. if none of that works, archive and reinstall.
there is a freeware utility called applejack that will also do most of this.
Details on all of these will be readily available with a google search.
