Upgraded:now colours are all faded out

Just upgraded,went pretty quickly.
However,now the colours are washed out and lacking punch.
Brightness isn't the issue.
Any ideas people?
Thanks in advance

The default output gamma correction value in Snow Leopard is now 2.2 (was 1.8), just like everyone else. So actually it should look like little more contrast was added.
See:

So what you are seeing might be a personal preference setting that got mangled during the upgrade...

  • Grr!! Why has Apple stopped the Classic! Mine is on its last legs, was going to buy one and now they are all sold out!! Im seriously hacked off Apple! What do i do now!?

    I cant believe Apple has discontinued the Classic without telling anyone - I need a new one and now they are all sold out!!!! Its crazy!! I have over 100Gb of music, in car, everywhere! And now when mine finally stops working (its on its last legs), I cant replace it as they don't do anything with the same capacity!! They have invented a great gadget and then stopped it! Usual big company mentality - oh well, time to start researching MP3 - no more Apple for me.....grrrrr

    Interesting answer - but equally I am not 'obliged' to continue to use their ITunes or hardware
    No one is making you, it's your choice. However, this forum is for people to seek technical help on use of iPods, not for moaning about Apple's decisions.

    I have just spent 2 hours trawling online/high st stores, everywhere is sold out - other than online at a premium - im interested in why you find this inexplicable,
    Because usually, when a product is discontinued, a store would drop the price to get rid of old stock (of a product that the manufacturer has decided is no longer popular).

    what other device would you recommend that gives this much storage, ease of use/connectivity in car/home docking etc & does not have a horrible touch screen (which I don't get on with) - at under £200!? Im all ears.....
    I have only two suggestions.
    Wait. As per the suggestion in my previous post. There is after all, already an iPhone with 128GB capacity. Technically therefore, that would suggest that it is possible to produce a replacement for the Classic. But since I have no inside knowledge of anything Apple are planning, don't quote me on that!
    Work on the basis that since your iPod is only "on its last legs" rather than "not working at all", it still has a useful purpose. Maybe by the time it does stop working, suggestion 1 will have come to pass.
    I have no practical suggestion for avoiding a touch screen, it's the modern way!
    Of course, if all else fails, and you end up with an iPod that has less capacity than your Library, you could resort to using Smart Playlists to manage your iPod, by using them to add and remove songs (for example, ones recently played that you don't want to hear for a while) and thereby keeping the songs on the iPod within its capacity. If that interests you, please ask and I'll explain it in more detail.

  • Help! Colours are all washed out

    Hi Folks,
    I have an LG Flatron M2380 DF monitor/tv which I have calibrated with a Pantone Huey Pro to D65 colour temp and 2.20 gamma.
    My photoshop CS5 colour settings are set shown below.
    The pictures look great on the screen but if I print on my Epson Stylus Photo RX585 or even if I send them away to Photobox they all look very grey and washed out. All the colours are flat and lifeless.
    Am I doing something wrong? Any advice would be appreciated.

    You may have a better chance of getting an answer in the Photoshop Forum:

    Assuming this is an iCloud mail account, sign out of iCloud in its preference pane, then sign back in with the new password.

  • Songs I recently downloaded are all Greyed out with a grey cloud next to them?

    Recently got an iTunes gift card for Christmas and was at my family's house. I went on their iTunes and signed into my Apple ID Account to use my new gift card under my Account. Everything went fine until I went home and opened my iTunes account on my PC Windows Computer. The recently Downloaded songs are ALL Greyed Out with a Cloud next to them? Now I can't play any of these NEW SONGS I just purchased?!?! PLEASE HELP ME!!

    I downloaded one of the file explorer programs (iFunbox in my case) for my PC and deleted everything out of the "Purchases" folder on the phone's "Raw File System". After a couple of syncs with iTunes everything was back to normal. It appears that something was screwed up on the iPhone side that iTunes couldn't sort out. I don't think anything could sync from iTunes to the phone, not just the greyed out items.
    This is why resetting and restoring the iPhone also works for a lot of people. It's overkill though, deletes your app data, and just wastes your time setting everything back up after the restore. Better to use the surgical approach of a file system explorer program on your PC to fix what appears to be a mundane data corruption issue.

  • Songs are all greyed out

    I purchased a 30gig ipod video today and I installed all of the software and stuff. And I went to reload my songs from my older playlist (from my ipod photo) and all of my songs on my ipod are all grayed out and unclickable. And there is a little lock in the bottom righthand corner. Has anyone had any problems like these and if so could they help me. please

    Normal. You've got automatic update selected.
    Switch to manual update if you want to be able to choose and/or play songs directly from your iPod.
    If you want to keep the automatic update, just make your changes in your library.
    Good luck!
    And now would be a very good time to get a back up plan in place. Your iPod is not meant to be the sole repository of your music. A common fix for many iPod problems is to restore it to factory settings, which wipes EVERYTHING off the iPod.

  • Garage Band Loops are all greyed out,

    There are no drum loops at all on my garage band. They are all "greyed" out. This is a new mac and came with leopard which I installed myself. Could it be that the install didn't go correctly and needs to be redone or is this something additional I have to purchase?

    Try using a different browser. If it works, then the problem is most likely Safari. If the other browser doesn't work, perhaps it is the web site.

  • Cannot deathorize computer-- menus are all greyed out

    I'm trying to deauthorize an existing computer before I sell it.  But when I click on the menus, they are mostly greyed out, including the Store menu.  so i cannot apparently login/logout much less authorize/deauthorize.  but I CAN access the store in the itunes browser and see my purchases and previous downloads and such.  So itunes appears to be logged in and working, but the menus are all greyed out.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

    No problem at all! Do remember to check the smallest things first before thinking that it is a big thing.

  • My songs are all greyed out

    my songs are all greyed out on my laptop and I cannot get them to play

    Will they play one track at a time and then stop, or not at all?
    Assuming the former then it is likely that the tracks are unchecked. Go to the Songs view and Ctrl+Click on any empty checkbox to check all tracks.
