Suddenly lost color spectrum in CS5? all pinks and greens!

I'm working in AI and PS CS5, and suddenly all my colors are various shades of hot pinks and neon green. Color libraries - all the same. It seems to be a bug within CS5 because I've got no problems with monitor or other programs. Any file opened in CS5 gives this result, yet they print fine. I've tried rebooting - same deal. It's as if it's somehow been set to half of CMYK? Any advice greatly appreciated!
my config is CS5 on Windows XP 64bit

Thank you, Mylenium!
This has become a nightmare beyond anything I've experienced in my 10 years using this program. After following Wade's advice (and ignoring the sarcasm attached) I found myself in even further difficultly.
I've now done a complete re-install of CS5, and am still experiencing the same issue. It's as is the Gamma is off. This happens in both AI and PS. After trying every research/expert forum I can come across, I am now wondering if this has anything to do with Windows XP 64-bit. I'm thinking I may need to revert back to an older OS.
thanks again for any thoughts or advice!
-Patti

    Here's a positive thing: Windows viruses can't run on OS X, but they can be transferred from OS X to other PCs (only if you have them on the OS X volume).

    You could get a virus from a different source that infected Steam and Chrome without any problem. Viruses normally try to infect as many files and programmes as possible.

    how to find my lost iphone4 if someone erase all content and settings ? there is way to find my iphone with serial number ?

    No. However, if your phone was running iOS 7.0 or higher, whoever erased it won't be able to re-activate it without knowinh your Apple ID/Password. Called Activation Lock, & the phone will be useless to whoever has it.

  • Late 2008 MacBook Pro 17" frozen with pink and green pixels

    Hi all,
    Hope someone can point me in the right direction with my Macbook Pro problem. I have a late 2008 version of the 17" MacBook Pro. I've been using it today and it's been completely fine. that was up until I was uploading my recent holiday photos to iPhoto. I left it to upload and came to check on it after 5 minutes. I found the program had frozen and pink and green pixels were spotted all over the screen.
    I turned the laptop off by the power button. When I started her up again I found the white screen with the pink and green pixels everywhere and apple logo appear. It starting booting and then just stopped. the screen froze and nothing was working. I've tried booting up in safe mode and again it just freezes.
    Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated as I'm lost without my computer. I've included a photo I've taken if the frozen screen.
    Many Thanks,
    Dean.

    According to MacBook Pro (Early 2008 and Late 2008) - Technical Specifications you have a model with
    NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics processor with dual-link DVI support and 512MB of GDDR3 memory
    Dual display and video mirroring: Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to 2560 by 1600 pixels on an external display, both at millions of colors
    DVI output port
    VGA output using included DVI to VGA adapter
    Built-in iSight camera
    The 8600M GT has several recalls for GPUs, which had a 4-year free repair from date of purchase. It may be too late in your case. You can find the recall notices via internet search if you want to.
    You should run the AHT -Using Apple Hardware Test
    Please see MacBook Pro: Distorted video or no video issues

  • MBP 15" freezes with solid pink and green pixels running across display

    This happens every time I boot the machine. Randomly the machine will freeze and the display will show pink and green diagonal pixels running through whatever application is open.
    I'm guessing this is going to be a send back issue. Anybody know anything about this?
    I've had the machine for less than 12 hours and this is my first mac. This is very discouraging. Earlier I was furious because it makes the machine totally unusable.

    No, it's definitely not supposed to do that.
    Seeing as you can't do much until tomorrow - a couple of things you could try;
    a) check the ram is pushed all the way in.
    b) Create a new user account - test - and see if it persists there.
    b) If a and b doesn't work - try a full clean install of OSX. I once had a PB that did odd things out of the box but was ok after a clean install of OSX from a disc. I assumed the disc image was compromised.
    Best of luck

  • Seeing pink and green artifacts when using AIR 3.5 beta

    Hi,
    I'm noticing that, when using the 3.5 beta SDK, some display elements are being rendered with strange pink and green artifacts. Below are screenshots of this occurring (most prominently on the spark buttons) on three devices:
    Galaxy Tab (running android version 2.3.3)
    Cropped version (to make the problem more visible, in case the previous image was scaled down):
    Nexus 7 (running 4.1.1)
    Cropped:
    Galaxy Nexus (running 4.1.1)
    Cropped version:
    By contrast, here is a screenshot of the same application running on the Galaxy Nexus, when compiled for 3.4:
    Cropped:
    Any ideas on why this is happening?

    Same here on Galaxy Tab 1 and Galaxy S1 ! And no spark component here, only simple drawings...
    Incredible to see such a "visible" bug in this beta...

    Tough one for any one.... my laptop screen is a pretty pink and green but if I connect to my TV via HDMI it works flawlessly
    Thank you

    >... but if I connect to my TV via HDMI it works flawlessly
    You have done very good test. Graphic card is OK and troublemaker is LCD display.
    On eBay you can find it pretty cheap.
    Can you exchange it alone?

  • Camera and video screen is all pink and will no longer take pictures/video

    Please help. My iPhone 3Gs camera and video were working just fine until today. When I open the camera app, the shot opens up pink and begins flashing and will only take a picture or video of the pink it is displaying. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Thank you so much to anyone who is able to help me.

    Restart, Reset and Restore, in that order. If those actions do not work, you will need to take it in for service.

  • It all pink, and not now

    Hello
    I have a table that I have lost the ability to edit and see
    in design mode. Further all the tags of the table are pink.
    Absolutely nothing looks odd in the code, but I cant see it in
    design and really need to. This must be a setting somewhere. Can
    anyone help explain? tia.

    It sounds as though you are missing an ending tag somewhere
    in your
    code. Can you link to the page so someone can see where the
    problem
    might lie.
    This tends to happen if you have some css in the head section
    of the
    page which is not closed, ie missing one of these curly
    brackets }

  • My apps on he iPad will not open suddenly. It seems to be all apps and powering off and on does not fix the problem

    The apps on my iPad are nt working. What do I do?

    If it truly is ALL apps (including the preinstalled apps) that will not open, try a reset and see if that helps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If only the third party apps will not work, then Meg's advice should work.
