There is a major color shift in my artwork image from the photoshop jpeg to dreamweaver - it gets 'grayed out', loses color contrast. I checked in Bridge and the color settings are synchronized. The image in photoshop is just like what i get from my Nikon D90 camera. The grayed out image has also been noted by two of my professional printer co. which i use but one of my printers - Modern Postcard - the images in photoshop are perfect. I just need to know what causes the color shift and how to control/manage it, thank you, Kathyrn

I have noted color shifts as well and have come to a few observations.
When you are making a .JPG file and you are trying to make a color in that file be the same color as your website's background, you're going to get a lot of failures. Photoshop will add color information in an ICC file in the meta information in the file if you like. That tends to produce actual colors, but they do not fit a web gamut.
The way I generally deal with images that need high quality is that I use the Save for Web and Other Devices exclusively, either ticking on or off the ICC profile for JPEG files and working with what works best. Saving a JPEG with as much information as is possible is usually the best choice but, since JPEG is a "lossy" compression scheme, you are always going to get some issues.
Additionally, the web browser in question will have control over what is displayed as well.
So try playing with the ICC profile in Photoshop's Save for Web And Other Devices and see if you can't get things a little more reliable.

Major color shifts during softproofing in CS4

Hi All,
I'm new here and looking for some help. I'm running CS4 on MacOS 10.5.8. I'm not new to color management but am having a problem with a particular output profile that's driving me nuts.
I usually print at home, and get fantastic results using my home work-flow (and yes, my monitor is calibrated) but recently decided to try my local Costco for printing.
My working space is adobeRGB--I work on my file, save a copy as a tiff and then softproof using the Nortisu profile provided by Dry Creek photo for my local Costco. After soft proofing, I flatten, crop, resize and sharpen and then convert to the image to the Costco profile without the embedded colorspace.
My issue is when I softproof with one image, I get a major color shift--if there's a way to post the file, I'd be happy too. It turns a lime green frog into a greenish mustard color and I can't recover the color with any amount of adjustment (primarily with selective color channels with hue/saturation and curves layers). Most of my other photos have very subtle shifts in contrast and brightness, but no major color shifts.
Any ideas--I know they are using Fuji Crystal Archive paper and an 80,000 dollar Noritsu printer so I wouldn't think I would have huge out of gamut issues, but maybe that's the case?
Thanks for your help and if there's a way to attach the original file so people can see the softproof themselves, let me know.
Cheers,
Gabriel.

Tai Lao,
I'm confused--I am embedding the aRGB file into my original file. Next I am working on a copy of that image which I soft proof with the Costco Noritsu profile. Only after I have worked on the color shifted image to I convert the profile from aRGB to the Costo profile, so at no point is there no embedded profile in the actual file. Now, I did do an out of gamut check and lo and behold, the lime green (and that's the best discription of the frog's overall color) was completely out of gamut...what strikes me is that the color shift is so completely extreme!
Anyway, I'll have to try the color swatch option to choose an in gamut color which I hope closely resembles the color seen in the aRGB image...my question now is how do I view the color swatch!?
Here's another question--I assumed that sRGB has a narrower gamut than the printers profile, yet when I soft proof the aRGB embedded image using sRGB the color shift is not nearly as extreme. That's why I feel like something funky is going on using the costco Profile (which is downloaded from Dry Creek to answer someone elses question). Why would a narrower color space, such as sRGB, retain more of the file's original color than a wider color space, like the Costco Noritsu profile?
OK...thanks for everyone's help again.
Gabriel.

My display color shifts to a blue tint when opening photoshop and bridge with Yosemite

The display on my mac book pro color shifts to a blue tint when opening Photoshop CS6. Any suggestions on how to maintain the current color profile? My photography work is dependent on proper display calibration. Thank you

First open the Universal Access preference pane and in the 'seeing' tab, make sure that the slider for 'enhance contrast' is all the way to the left. Next, open the Displays preference panel and click on the 'color' tab. The click the 'calibrate' button. This will take you through a color/brightness/contrast set up procedure that may eliminate the problem.
There are two options in the calibration process, standard, which is the default option and has fewer adjustment screens, and expert, which is selected by checking the box for it on the first calibration screen and offers more adjustments. You can't do any harm with either since any settings you create can be discarded, or profile(s) you save can be deleted or ignored if necessary.
This won't necessarily resolve the problem, but if not, then it would indicate that there's an issue with the hardware - possibly just the connector on the back of the system, which needs to be fastened really tightly. If you can't readily resolve this, since your system is so new, I'd then suggest you call Apple.

Color shift during video capture (moved from Nseri...

I have noticed that the video camera in my n79 is very sensitive to changes in light. Often I get a major color shift during a video capture seemingly for no reason, especially when shooting outside. Is this a defect or should I use a particular setting for video? Current settings are:
quality: High(TV);
scene mode:Auto;
video light: off(shooting video outside during day);
white balance: Automatic (this MIGHT be the culprit?);
Color tone:Normal.
Two stills from the same video are attached; the second, a few seconds later, is unnaturally vivid (almost day-glo!).
Thanks for any suggestions.

Wow, what a quick reply!
Delivery was going to be Quicktime HD and probably downconvering to SD MPEG2 for a DVD. I was just going to edit in HDV, since I'm not doing anything fancy, just to try it out as a workflow option (and previews for the client). The first couple of projects I've started on my Macbook Pro though have had this hue shift (I can post an example on-line if need be by filming my monitor...) It's not inherent in the actual captured QT file, just when being played back in FCP. When I export out of FCP the QT file looks great as well. I've never had this problem on my G5 tower with HDV from the same camera or captured the same way. I'm worried that it's the univeral copy of FCP or even worse, my Macbook!
Make sense?
Thanks

Convert images from 24 bit RGB to 8bit and get the best colors

Hi,
I use this to do the conversion:
BufferedImage img2 = new BufferedImage(img1.getWidth(), img1.getHeight(), BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_INDEXED);
ColorSpace colorSpace = img2.getColorModel().getColorSpace();
ColorConvertOp convertOp = new ColorConvertOp(colorSpace, null);
convertOp.filter(img1, img2);
But the colors from img2 does not match with those from img1.
I guest that it uses a default 256 colors, instead of extracting colors from original images.
I read about a intermediate conversion to CS_CIEXYZ color space and then to an output colorspace, but i don't now how to code it.
Clould provide an example of how to do this?
Many thanks for any help, and duke dollars for the best of them,
Eugen

I read about a intermediate conversion to CS_CIEXYZ
color space and then to an output colorspace, but i
don't now how to code it.I don't think that's going to help, because I bet your original ColorSpace is sRGB and so will be the ColorSpace of the IndexColorModel.
1. You are right, the colors used with TYPE_BYTE_INDEXED are default colors. Here is a snippet from the source code:
// Create a 6x6x6 color cube
int[] cmap = new int[256];
int i=0;
for (int r=0; r < 256; r += 51) {
 for (int g=0; g < 256; g += 51) {
 for (int b=0; b < 256; b += 51) {
 cmap[i++] = (r<<16)|(g<<8)|b;
// And populate the rest of the cmap with gray values
int grayIncr = 256/(256-i);
// The gray ramp will be between 18 and 252
int gray = grayIncr*3;
for (; i < 256; i++) {
 cmap[i] = (gray<<16)|(gray<<8)|gray;
 gray += grayIncr;
colorModel = new IndexColorModel(8, 256, cmap, 0, false, -1, DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE);2. If you want to use different colors in the ICM, I can imagine a couple strategies:
a. You know the colors you want to use: use them!
b. Your original image only has a few colors: sample the image to find out what those colors are.
c. You have no idea what colors are in your image and how many there are, but you want to try to choose a palette that reflects its composition: for example, if your image is a sunset, your palette will have many colors in the spectrum from yellow->orange->red. Good luck! Perhaps create a collectiom of color "buckets" representing a neighboorhood around a color. For example (R,G,B) = (100,120,45) +/- 5 in each component. Then sample the image. If a bucket is empty you don't need that color; if a bucket is "overflowing" perhaps you need to subdivide the bucket into subbuckets with smaller neighboorhoods (I'll say it again: good luck!)

Aperture does not recognize that there are images to be imported on an SD card. My workaround is to copy the images from the ST card to a folder and then import the images from the folder. Aperture also imports incredibly slowly after the update to 3.4

Check your Import settings in the Import Panel, i.e. all that might exclude the image type you want to import:
If you did not exclude any file types, and still Aperture will not import, remove your ImageCapture preferences fro your user library:
To remove the image capture preferences:
If Aperture is running, quit Aperture, and log off and on again.
Open your user library from the Finder's Go menu: Hit Command Shift G (⌘⇧G) and then type in: ~/Library/Preferences/ then hit return.
In the window that opens remove "com.apple.ImageCapture.plist"
and look into the subfolder "ByHost": if there are files named com.apple.ImageCapture something .plist remove them too.
then try again.
And if that still does not help, remove the Aperture preferences as well:
~/Library/Preferences/aperture.plist
Regards
Léonie
P.S. in MacOS Lion and later the user library ~/Library is hidden by default.
You can reveal it also from the Finder's "Go" menu:
Finder > Go, then hold down the options ⌥ key, until the Library appears in the drop-down menu, select it and open the Library folder. Then go to the "Preferences".

Is there another way to close apps other than deleting them from the multitask bar.....I have a small crack in the bottom of my screen and that part of the screen does not recognize the touch. :(

Is there another way to close apps other than deleting them from the multitask bar.....I have a small crack in the bottom of my screen and that part of the screen does not recognize the touch.

There's generally no reason to be closing them that way at all. The apps you see in the recents bar are just that, apps that you used recently. Most of them are doing absolutely nothing. The only apps that are really doing anything in the background are ones that play music and ones that are using location services. Just leave them be.
Best of luck.

My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files. I am in the process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files, and replaced my music with my kids music that they have put into the current itunes library. My music is nowhere to be found on my computer, so now I am in the long, forever process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

Contact iTunes support and explain your situation to them. They may let you redownload it at no cost.

If they don't, I'm afraid you'll have to purchase it again. Sorry.

Try dragging the image to the desktop, then drag the image to the slide you want it on

When converting an image from raw to jpeg , the jpeg can look flat compared to the original raw image . Is there anything I can do about this ?

When converting an image from raw to jpeg , the jpeg can look flat compared to the original raw image . Is there any way to prevent this ?

Hi Joe , Thank you for your quick response . I am viewing the jpeg in Microsoft Picture Manager and Flickr. It 's not always really noticeable , but for example if I shoot into the light with dew on the grass , the dew glistens in LRoom and I'm happy with the shot but when I convert it to jpeg ,it looks dull. I have changed the setting to sRGB - from Adobe 1998 ,but don't see much difference. Kind regards Alberto.

HT4060 there is some kind of fluid that is slowly leaking from the adapter

there is some kind of fluid that is slowly leaking from the adapter

What adapter are you talking about? The power adapter or some other adapter? If the power adapter are you sure it's a genuine Apple product? There have been recent reports of defective third party adapters causing injury. By third party I mean the cheap ones you find at a kiosk in a mall or at a dollart store. They can be dangerous.

Is there a way to move my calendar, reminders & iMessage apps from the dock to the menu bar?

Is there a way to move my calendar, reminders & iMessage apps from the dock to the menu bar?

Workspaces are stored as XML files in your user profile on Windows or the user library on Mac, in a subfolder called, strangely enough, workspaces.
You may have run afoul of the new "content grabber" in the center of a frame that allows you to move the content without changing tools. Looks sort of like a dounut, or the center spot on some SLR camera focus viewfinders. You'll either love it or hate it, and it can be switched on or off in the View menu.

Why is there a color shift in attached email images?

I'm new to Firefox. I'm using a Mac OS 10.6.8. When I attach a B&W image file in my email account, and I view what I've sent the color shifts to a cyan instead of remaining neutral B&W in the original image. I've also tried to attach it in another email account, with the same results. However, when I open the image in another browser it appears as the original B&W is. Why is this happening?

It could that a color profile is present that Firefox doesn't support.
You can modify gfx.color_management.enablev4* prefs on the about:config page and possibly enable ICC V4 support in Firefox.
Close and restart Firefox to make the changes effective.

Why is color shifting on a scaling image?

I am building a website with a responsive, one-color SVG logo, and for some reason, the color shifts when the image scales down to a certain size. It seems like the color flips from sRGB to my calibrated monitor setting. And it happens on PNGs as well. And when I change the color of the image. This seems to be a strictly Safari issue. FF and Chrome tested out fine. I tried replicating it on my iMac at work, and, surprise, it doesn't happen. On my Mac Pro, I'm using a Spyder4Pro for color calibration on my Dell Ultrasharp. Am I the only one with this problem? I throw myself at the mercy of the Apple forums!

First off, merci beaucoup, Arnaud. Your English is very good.
I'm not sure I've explained the problem very well. The image is switching color profiles in the browser as it's being scaled. It's a fluid image, and every time the image gets down to a specific size, the color profile switches, causing the SVG or PNG to noticably change colors. It looks like an event triggered by a media query, but nothing's set in the CSS.
I've changed how the image is displayed, from embedding it as a background with intrinsic ratio to displaying it explicitly with the <img> tag. I've even embedded different profiles, but nothing seems to stop the change in color. Maybe it's the way Webkit is rendering objects below a certain size? I'm hoping a Webkit specialist out there can help me.
Color management is like alchemy to me, so your article is extremely helpful and very much appreciated, but I'm afraid it doesn't solve why the color changes in the browser without anything to trigger it other than a change in size. :\
C'ie la vie.
Thank you again for your response, and I hope you have a great day!
