Trouble with colours

Hello
I am having issues with some of the colours once an image is edited. When I look at it on my screen it looks perefct but when I put it on my tv it looks colourless and the colours have changed. This also happens when im ordering prints but the prints come back how they should so im unsure what is actuly happening. I have a slideshow of unedited and edited images for my clients to veiw and their unedited images look exactly how they should but their edited images look awful but perfect on the computer? I also dont want clients putting their images on their tv and they look that bad. I dont no what it is doinf or how to fix it?

You are having an issue with color profiles. TV's, projectors, some web browsers don't read the profile, so they use their own. When sending the file to someone else and you do not know if they can use a profile, convert it to srgb that profile is more common and would be closer, it may not be exact, but should be closer. Using save to web is one way to convert to srgb. Since that is the web so called standard.

  • Itunes/ipod with colour problem

    recently, ive been having problems with my ipod. i accidently dropped it onto concrete a couple of months back, and since then, it keeps coming up with the sad ipod icon. fortunately, tho im sure it doesnt do it any good, a swift smack to the back of it, and a restart usually gets it to work.
    a couple of days a go, i had a pop-up on itunes saying that my ipod was corrupt, and needed to be restored. i clicked cancel the first time, but it came up again when i restarted itunes. i done this, and everything was fine. no sad ipod icon. however, now itunes wont open when my ipod is connected, but when it isnt, it'll load fine. i've tried it on my other pc without the internet, but that says about the ipod software not being installed properly.
    i also cant access it via my computer on either computer, they both freeze, and stop responding.
    i didnt buy my ipod from apple, so im pretty sure i cant just send it to them to get it fixed/whatever they can do. is there anything i can do, or would it be easier just to get a newer ipod?
    ipod with colour   Windows XP Pro  

    if still does not solve try this
    . Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    Tips
    a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
    b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
    c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

    I'm not sure how to post a message. I hope this might interest someone. The situation; 3 floors,I am having trouble with an an Airport Extreme, 802.11n on the top floor and a Mac Pro 3.1 on the bottom floor. Not always but often it has trouble seeing the Airport and making a connection. I have an older Airport Express, would it help to install it? would it work best if it was installed in the same room? should it be installed half way in between? Get another Extreme? The Mac Book Pro on the middle floor can see 11 networks in the neighbourhood if that might be causing a problem or would if I installed the Express. Thank for your consideration.   

    Thanks for your time ... I appologize for the font and colour, I compossed the question in pages and failed to notice the font colour as grey ... there are a variety of computers of various ages so I think it is using a setting that allows both 5G and 2.4 ... the connection to the Airport is thru a cable modem and cable does run throuhout the house ... maybe those hard wires would be a place to look at ... do you think that putting the 'Express' on the second floor might help ... thanks again ...

  • Gradient Problems with colours

    Hi I am new to Illustrator (just bought CS5) and I am having trouble with the colours when using gradients (colours are generally duller as well) but when I make a gradient from red to black the computer automatically puts a grey inbetween, (photoshop has no problems the colours are clear and bright)  I recently did a tutorial http://veerle.duoh.com/design/article/illustrator_inset_effect_on_text_in_combination_with _clipping_mask (she had the same tutorial in photoshop, which worked great) but my colours in illustrator are having this grey issue and the image came out looking very dull. 
    Is there some file setting I may have changed to cause this?
    Thank you

    The color setup in AI is trying to simulate the way CMYK actually looks in print. Sometimes the simulated display goes overboard, and it's impractical to write you a textbook on the whole color management (color calibration) subject in a user forum. (Plus, replies in a user forum are as often wrong as right.) There is plenty of reading material out there for you on this. (Start with the Help files, as the Color Settings dialog suggests.)
    When designing for CMYK print, work in a CMYK document. Switching color modes is bad practice, especially if you intend for your on-press values to actually be the values you specify in the document. For example:
    1. Set up your red (100M, 100Y) to black (100K) grad.
    2. Change Document Color Mode to RGB.
    3. Change Document Color Mode to CMYK.
    4. Look at what has happened to your original CMYK values.
    The best way to work in CMYK is to have a basic understanding of CMYK and the real-world principles of process printing. For example, if you do as Jacob suggests, and make the black end of your grad also contain the "red" (100M, 100Y), you will have a 300% total ink coverage at that end of your grad. That may or may not be a problem, depending on the target printing environment.
    Generally speaking, yes; CMYK print is almost always "dull" compared to viewing RGB on a monitor (and you are always viewing RGB on a monitor, even if it is shifted to simulate CMYK). This is true regardless of color calibration. Common sense goes a long way. Monitors glow; paper doesn't.
    One of the most overlooked facts is that human vision is highly adaptive. Even in RGB, your monitor never displays anything even approaching a true black. Yet your eye nonetheless sees a dark rich black.
    CMYK process, for example, is very poor at reproducing brilliant blues. Yet the combination of knowledgeable image color correction (as opposed to mere calibration), quality printing, and the adaptive nature of human vision can nonetheless result in printed blues that seem to "glow."
    If you're designing for commercial print, you should seek to understand the process enough that you would be comfortable assigning colors while working on a grayscale monitor. Again, that comes from both study and real-world exposure. Actually visit the press room whenever you have the opportunity. Maybe even take a course in commercial repro at the local tech school. You can't really gain the understanding you need in a software user forum. This is a huge subject.

  • I'm having trouble with the MTS MT2S convertor.

    I’m having trouble with the MTS MT2S convertor. On my video camera (I have a Panasonic HC-V500 full HD 1920x1080) I’ve recorded in HD and when I use the MTS convertor to change the file type I select the HD option it’s a quicktime .mov file type and when it has finished converting the quality of the video goes to a lower quality and the colours aren’t vibrant like shown on the original recording on my camera. It also looks slightly grainy. So my question is which HD file type should I be choosing? As I no there’s a few but unsure which is best to use. I have also changed quality to original and didn’t make a difference on the quicktime .mov file type. I wasn’t sure if theres anything else on there I’m meant to be adjusting? As the software didn’t come with any instructions on how to use it. Just to mention i upload my videos to youtube so i want them to be in HD but i use iMovie as my editing software before i upload to youtube and i no avi file format isn't supported in iMovie.

    Its a 64 bits.

    Searching on the web, most results I found lead to this page, where it is said that the problem is due to badly tuned overcurrent protection, and advocated that unplugging and switching off the computer for a little while gets things back into normal. This does not really work for me; the problem seems to occur more randomly, unfortunately with high probability (my camera is available after less than one boot out of ten).
    I tried to ensure that the ehci-hcd module is loaded at boot with the ignore-oc option (with a file in /etc/module-load.d/), to no avail.
    I also wrote a script which alternatively removes and reloads the ehci-pci driver until my device is found in lsusb. It is sometimes helpful, but usually not. And even when my device is found that way, it can only be used for a while before disappearing again.
    Anyway, such a hack is unacceptable... So, my questions are:
    is it indeed related to overcurrent protection ?
    is there anything else I can try ?
    should I file somewhere an other of the numerous bug reports about "unable to enumerate USB device" already existing ?
    If of any importance, I am running linux 3.15.7, because at the time I installed my system, I couldn't get the hybrid graphic card Intel/AMD working under 3.16.

    Hello Sue,
    I have an iPad 3, iPad Mini and iPhone 5S and they are all sluggish on capitalisation using shift keys. I hope that Apple will solve the problem because it is driving me crazy.
    I find using a Microsoft Surface and Windows 8 phone, which I also have, work as well as all the ios devices before the ios 7 upgrade.
    It has something to do with the length of time that you need to hold the shift key down. The shift key needs to be held longer than the letter key for the capitalisation to work. For some reason, this is a major change in the way we have learnt to touch type on computers. I am having to relearn how to type!

  • Trouble with OR in where clause

    Hello,
    I'm having trouble with execution speed. The problem seems to be with using OR in my where clause.
    Here's the meat of the function where i_pledge_number is an input parm:
    BEGIN
    SELECT /*+ INDEX (pp) */ SUM(pp.prim_pledge_amount)
    INTO return_amount
    FROM
    primary_pledge pp
    WHERE
    -- Get total if multiple allocations
    pp.prim_pledge_number IN
    (SELECT pc.pledge_number
    FROM pledge_codes pc
    WHERE pc.pledge_code_type = 'M'
    AND pc.pledge_code = 'AC'
    AND lpad(pc.pledge_comment,10,'0') = i_pledge_number)
    -- Get total if single allocation
    OR pp.prim_pledge_number = i_pledge_number;
    RETURN return_amount;
    END;
    If I comment out either half of the OR statement (either the subquery or the pp.prim_pledge_number = i_pledge_number half) the function returns a value in .02 seconds. If I leave the OR in, it takes 2.764 seconds to execute?? Can someone please show me a better way (faster) to do this? I tried using nvl() around the subquery but couldn't get it to compile.
    Thanks

    These things are difficult to diagnose remotely, but here is something you can try....
    SELECT */ SUM(pp.prim_pledge_amount)
    INTO return_amount
    FROM   primary_pledge pp
    WHERE  pp.prim_pledge_number IN (SELECT pc.pledge_number
                                     FROM pledge_codes pc
                                     WHERE pc.pledge_code_type = 'M'
                                     AND pc.pledge_code = 'AC'
                                     AND lpad(pc.pledge_comment,10,'0') = i_pledge_number
    UNION ALL
    SELECT i_pledge_number FROM dual)
       RETURN return_amount;
    END;If that doesn't do anything (and it might well not) there are a large number of different ways we can recast this query. To save us further guessing please give us more details: execution plans, database version number, volumetrics.

  • A trouble with "LIKE" in a select statement

    Hi!
    I'm having trouble with "LIKE" in a select statement...
    With Access I can make the following and everything works well:
    SELECT name, birthday
    FROM client
    WHERE birthday LIKE '*/02/*';
    but if try to do it in my application (it uses Access), it doesn't work - I just can't understand that!!!
    In my application the "month" is always the currently month taken from the "System". Look what I'm doing...
    String query1 = "SELECT name, birthday " +
              "FROM client " +
              "WHERE birthday " +
              "LIKE '*/" +
              pMonth +
              "/*' " +
              "ORDER BY birthday ASC ";
    ResultSet rs = statement1.executeQuery(consulta1);
    boolean moreRecords = rs.next();
    The variable "moreRecords" is always "false", the query returns nothing although the table "client" has records that attend the query.
    Please, anyone can help me?! It's a little bit urgent.
    Thanks,
    Katia.

    Hi Katia,
    I'll bet the problem lies with the characters you're using to escape the LIKE clause. You're using the ones that Access likes to see, but that's not necessarily what's built into the JDBC-ODBC driver class.
    You can find out what the correct escape wildcard characters are from the java.sql.DatabaseMetaData.getSearchStringEscape() method. It'll tell you what to use in the LIKE clause.
    I'm not 100% sure about your code. It doesn't use query1 anywhere. I'd do this:
    String query = "SELECT name, birthday FROM client WHERE birthday LIKE ? ORDER BY birthday ASC";
    PreparedStatement statement = connection.createStatement(query);
    String escape = connection.getMetaData().getSearchStringEscape();
    String test = escape + '/' + pMonth + '/' + escape;
    statement.setString(1, test);
    ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery();
    while (rs.hasNext())
    // load your data into a data structure to pass back.
    rs.close();
    statement.close();Let me know if that works. - MOD

  • (Trouble printing) Trouble with connection between Macbook Pro and Hp Deskjet 1510.

    Trouble with connection between Macbook Pro and Hp Deskjet 1510. (Nothing Prints).
    I have a Macbook Pro and am having difficulty printing documents from ‘Pages' from my Hp Deskjet 1510. I have installed the necessary software for the printer and it is connected via USB. Every time I try to print the printer icon comes up as it should, 'printing' and then 'job completed' and then the icon disappears. (Nothing is printed.) I thought it might be something to do with Pages compatibility with the printer but exporting the document to Word or making it a PDF doesn’t change anything. I don’t have Microsoft Word on my computer. The scanner does work and when I printed a ‘Test Page’ that worked too.
    Let me know if you know why this is happening.

    With these settings the network now works flawlessly, however, when i have my ethernet cable plugged in, my internet access via my airport card(on the macbook pro) is no longer available. Hoping you can tell me why this would be with this info i've provided.
    Educated guess. The networking devices have priorities as to which are used. The standard order is that Ethernet has a higher priority than Airport.
    While your Ethernet is unplugged it is inactive and the Mac ignores it. Once you plug it in, the Mac sees that it is active and switches traffic to that interface.
    I actually take advantage of this feature at home, but configuring my Airport and Ethernet with identical fixed IP addresses. Normally I'll use Airport, but if I'm copying a huge file and I want faster performance, I'll just walk my MacBook (previously iBook, previously Powerbook) over to my Ethernet switch and plug in my MacBook. Magically, the Mac detects that the Ethernet is active and continues the file transfer uninterrupted over the faster 100baseT Ethernet connection. When the transfer is finished, or if I really need to move back to the Comfy Chair, I unplug the Ethernet cable, and all activity reverts back to the Airport, all without disrupting any existing networking connections.
    You on the other hand have totally different settings for your Ethernet and your Airport, so when you switch to Ethernet, you basically loose your Airport connections.
    Something you can try:
    System Preferences -> Network
    Gear icon on the bottom left, next to the [+] [-] icons.
    Select *Set Service Order...*
    Now Drag the network interfaces into the perfer priority order you want. In this case put Airport above Ethernet.
    NOTE: You may want to create a new Network Location for this, instead of messing with your normal home Location (which is most likely the default Automatic. That way you have your original you can always fall back to.

    Has anyone else been having animation/mobile troubles with iOS devices? Any hints as to how you fixed your errors would be extremely helpful! I also posted this question in the Muse forum and haven't gotten a response...
    Thanks,

    Or, how about this:
    Does anyone know how to have Edge Animate objects that utilize "_top" in an open url trigger make the Muse site that they are a part of open a new window/tab with that action (as opposed to having it open the url in the current page, or using "_blank" in the trigger)?

  • Trouble with 3rd party VST installs for Garageband, can't find instruments

    Hi,
    I am having trouble with Audio Units for Garageband when installing 3rd party software, VSTs, loops, instruments. I have more issues with Logic Pro. I am hoping that it is the same underlying issue and that I am just missing something. I have the manuals (not great for troubleshooting). I am confused with some installs use User Library and others use the Computer Library. I do go to the mfgs sites for updates. The installs sometimes work as standalones but I don't see ALL of the components of the software in say Garageband or Logic. Mostly, I am missing the "instruments" and "loops" that I want to access within the DAW. Some examples:
    • Here is some of the software I am talking about:  East West sample libraries (Play and Native Instruments); Vienna Symphonic librarires; Sylenth1 (just last night); Sample Tank 2 and Total Workstation 2 from IK Multimedia and others.
    • In GB I see the Audio Units for Vienna, Play, Sylenth, some of the IK Multimedia but NOT any instruments when I go to the "Sound Generator" -- I seem to be missing the instruments and loops. I see less AUs in Logic Pro. Some of these are VST instruments.
    • Can I just drag-drop samples to the library folders to fix this?
    • The plug-ins do not seem to work (though Sylenth1 worked for a single sound). When there is a standalone app (as in Sample Tank), I finally got the "sounds" to be reinstalled and loaded, those sounds/samples don't show up in any DAW.
    • When and if the sounds/loops/samples show up in GB's "Instruments" section will I be able to tell that they belong to that particular software or library?
    Thanks in advance.

    Found the answer myself, it was simple:
    • Select the Track
    • Show the Instrument (info area)
    • Click on Edit
    • Click on the "Sound Generator" pop up field.
    • At the bottom of the pop-up list, select from the Audio Units that you have installed. This is where you see "Sample Tank 2, Vienna Instruments..."
    • NEXT -- IMPORTANT:   CLICK ON THE PICTURE next to the Sound Generator pop-up field.The AU unit loads up, the interface pops up, you load up the instruments in this AU Unit. You do NOT see the sounds from the AU unit in the normal Apple instrument list.
    This was not intuitive but once you know it, fairly simple.
    Still, the devil is in the details -- more questions on the way.
