Very incorrect color

The colors in QuickTime are way off for me. If I create an image in PhotoShop of pure white (255, 255, 255), when I open that in Quicktime it will display as 235, 207, 207. It doesn't matter if I embed a color profile in the image or not, QuickTime will not display accurate color. This is true for both the content I create as well as content created by others. All I can think of is that this is a system with a calibrated display, and QuickTime is an app that doesn't use that calibration. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

no lol, i love my ipad but it so very frustrates me that my artwork is being nailed over since i put so much time in editing and working on my ipad.
but seriously, there must be a fix to this??? This is a major issue!

  • Layer Group Channel blending, incorrect colors

    Hello!
    Wanted to bring up an issue that has troubled me in Photoshop for years, with the hope of it gaining some traction for fixing. For a while now (unsure which version), it was possible to set a Layer Group to filter/isolate a specific channel. This is a very useful feature for me, in creating channel masks for game assets and for use in real time shader techniques. However, it has a very large flaw that has made the feature largely unusable - and I'm surprised others have not had the issue as well as it should affect print as well (if in a lesser effect).
    When you use this feature, and essentially mask the contents of a layer to the Red, Green, or Blue channels, the layers in those Groups are still hit by color management, which results in the pixels drawing and blending incorrect colors. an example:
    In the first file, each group is set to blend to a specific channel, and a black to white gradient is applied in that layer.
    In the second file, those same layers are copied and pasted into the channels of a new RGB document. The file already looks very different.
    Finally, in the 3rd file the two layers are compared using the Difference blend mode. Can observe the difference between the two layers here, which is a result of the first method (Layer Grouping) not blending the pixels properly as if they were a channel - which when using the R/G/B blend masking on Group Properties, is what should be expected.
    When i use this technique of pushing certain black and white images into a channel, they are made for a specific purpose and function. Since the layer group blending alters what the values of those pixels are (very important for real time shader creation) in the final file, it makes this amazingly useful feature unusable. I would LOVE to be able to have Layer Group channel blending be a part of my workflow, instead of constantly copying and pasting into channels. I have created various scripts to save these types of files out easier, but i could greatly simplify them by being able to save this 'RGB Mask' file directly from my PSD.
    Wanted to share and start a discussion about it, to see if it would be possible to get a fix for this in the future!
    thanks!

  • I have very thin, colored lines running vertical on my desktop monitor screen.  I don't know where they come from or how to get rid of them.  I started with one and now have three.  Can anyone give me some insight about what to do in getting rid of them?

    I got an address from Applecare, although I can't place my hand on it right now. I didn't bother persuing the letter route myself as I didn't expect much. I know that the location was Cork, Ireland though as that where the UK Applecare is based as far as I'm aware. The best thing to do is to call Applecare (if it's free) and discuss the issue. State that you are not happy wit the fact that you will have to pay to have the problem resolved especiiay if it is an ongoing problem that has not been resolved. I ended up speaking to a senior manager of the Applecare team who then proceeded to tell me about mailing in my grievence to customer services division or something like that.
    If I can find the address I may post it if I'm allowed.
    In the case of age, Schools usually have a 5-year life-cycle as they tend to be used differently than consumer machines, i.e. being used constantly on a daily basis for at least 12 hours with no break. you would expect issues to appear after a few years, but I expect problems that arise through defects to be resolved and stay resolved. As I mentioned we had machines for around 2 years before the lines appeared and sent them to be repaired. I'm happy with that. What I am unhappy about is the fact that the problem has reappeared exactly in the same way and now I'm left with around 7 machines that I either pay loads to repair or, the more likely replace the machines with newer ones since the age is now big enough to warrant the replacement.
    Sorry for the lengthy moan, but these are the reasons I purchased Apple ahrdware in the first place to avoid the "not our problem" stance some PC vendors  usually take, similar to the Dell monitors thread mentioned in here somewhere.

  • IPad Air running 8.2 - one of the two cameras shows very weird colors.

    This started a couple weeks ago. The outward camera view shows very weird colors. I have looked on line for a solution and found a reference that said the 'live camera filter is stilled turned on' but I don't think live filters exist any more. ive tried everything I can think of. Attached is a screen shot when using the camera.
    TIA

    Try the standard troubleshooting steps in this order:
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds). No data will be lost.
    Restore: Connect your device to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory.

  • Some pictures show up with incorrect colors

    some pictures show up with incorrect colors(eg. a person with green skin), and on Yahoo mail, the background which is supposed to be blue shows up as pink, as does the place where a user avatar would be.

    This can be caused by a problem with the color profile for your display monitor or color profiles embedded in images.<br />
    You can disable color management to test that.<br />
    You can set the pref gfx.color_management.mode to 0 on the about:config page to disable Color Management.<br />
    You need to close and restart Firefox or maybe even reboot the computer to make the change effective.<br />

  • Incorrect colors in LR 2

    Hi Everyone,
    I am running Adobe Lightroom 2 in Windows 7. I have a Dell U2410 monitor using the factory setting sRGB profile.
    Colors display fine in all my applications - except Adobe Lightroom 2:  Pictures are displayed with a mild yellow hue.  If I export photo and display in other applications- they look fine.
    My guess is that LR 2 is displaying pictures using the incorrect profile - but I don't really knowif it is he case.
    Any suggestion?

    Hi Everyone,
    I thank everyone for the responses. However, I must have  a very very simple setting incorrect in Lightroom because the colours are incorrect.
    How do I know?
    Well - I created a picture that is grey - just grey.  All RGB values are set to the same colour.  I didn't save it with any profile attached.
    This shows up as grey in:
    (a). Picture Window Pro (with colour management setup to display as RGB).
    (b). Imatch (with colour management set up)
    (c). In every single Windows program, colour managed or not.
    If I read this into Lightroom, it displays as a greenish/yellowish colour.
    I took a screen shot, saved it, and - guess what? It is saved as a yellowish green colour (even though the pixel readout is that the colours are neutral in Lightroom).
    I am attaching the original grey scale file and a print screen of this grey as seen in Adobe Lightroom.
    I know that I must be doing something very silly in Adobe Lightroom.
    Any suggestions?

  • Incorrect Color Profile

    I've calibrated my monitor so that it's 2.2 Television Gamma but the setting doesn't seem to stay in place for very long on my Apple Display.
    I have set up both the Macbook Pro and the Apple Display to the same calibration and given it the name "Gamma 2.2" but if I disconnect the Display for a while and then reconnect the colour on the Display has a yellowy hue to it.
    This is sometimes the case on the MacBook as well but instead there is a Bluey hue.
    I then have to go back into the Color Settings and create a new profile - very annoying after a while.
    Any ideas?

    I'm having exactly the same problem as well. Sometimes, after sleep, it has the correct Gamma 2.2. profile and sometimes it doesn't. As soon as I click on Displays, in the System Prefs, it changes back to what it should be namely Gamma 2.2.
    Very frustrating.
    I also have an external Apple Display connected and it also happens with this on random occasions!

  • Incorrect colors when drawing an image

    Hello!
    I use Java 5 update 4 and Windows XP in 16-bit color depth mode. I run the following code:
    BufferedImage in=ImageIO.read(<A_JPG_FILE>);
    BufferedImage im=GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice().getDefaultConfiguration().createCompatibleImage(in.getWidth(),in.getHeight());
    Graphics g=im.createGraphics();
    g.drawImage(in,0,0,null);
    g.dispose();If I paint the image in a Graphics context that has the INTERPOLATION_BILINEAR rendering hint set, the colors change and the resulting image displayed is incorrect. E.g. blue becomes magenta.
    This happens only to "compatible" images.
    Does anybody know why this color shifting happens? Is there any workaround?
    Thank you,
    George Vasiliou

    Tho this my not be the solution, have you tried using a Graphics2D object instead of a Graphics object (using the method drawImage(BufferedImage, BufferedImageOp, int, int) )? I suggest you try it out, you never know (I don't know if this will actually make a difference, but it can't kill to try).

  • Incorrect Color Output when Printing

    I've place a CMYK image from photoshop into indesign. It has a dark blue background and prints correctly out of photoshop. Indesign, however, prints the blue as a rich purple color. The color output is set to composite CMYK. When I change the output to composite RGB, the color changes to a lighter blue, but it's not exact as the original photoshop file. Everything appears fine on the monitor, but prints incorrectly. I'm running on a Mac Pro dual 3.0Ghz, 4Gb ram, and printing to a Konica Minolta C451. Any ideas?

    That is a feature of RGB to cmyk conversion. There is a mathematical tendency for the conversion to be non-linear, it actually spirals towards the red in those colours.

    You can do a hue shift layer specifically for the blues and bend it back into shape.

  • Incorrect colors after importing a Canon XTI RAW image into LR

    I've been using LR for about a week now and love it. However, it does a poorer job of rendering RAW images (and therefore also exporting to JPG) than Canon's Digital Photo Professional. LR image have a sickly yellow+green for skin tones vs. Canon's images, which are more Red.
    I've tried every combination of compensating for this by twiddling with white-balance settings, Hue, Saturation etc. but have been unsuccessful in getting the images to look as gorgeous as Canon's Digital Photo Pro does out-of-the-box. That's, of course, extremely frustrating since I like LR's features so much better. Help! Has anyone solved this? I've seen similar postings on various web sites (eg. www.dpreview.com), but no one seems to have a solution yet!
    Thanks.

    Yes, I've tried various suggested solutions in this forum and others. The problem is that so far they have all been one-of solutions. ie. if I spend about 30+ mins on a given picture, I can make it look like what Canon's Digital Photo Professional does right off the bat. Additionally, the presets that I've seen recommend only seem to work for a given lighting condition. When the light is even slightly different, the resulting preset processed LR image ends up over-corrected or generally looking unappealing.
    Here is an example that shows I'm still struggling with this issue. Here are examples of pictures: http://public.fotki.com/eshwars/lr-issues/ All I did to get the JPG image was the following:
    1. Opened the CR2 file in DPP, "Convert and Save" with Image Quality=10, Output Resolution=350 dpi. Output image is named: DPP_20070408_4038.JPG
    2. Imported and opened the very same CR2 file in LR. Used "Export Photos" to JPG. Image quality=100, Color space=sRGB, Resolution=350dpi. Output image is named: LR_20070408_4038.jpg
    3. I tried "compensating" for LR based on suggestion in another forum by modifying the Camera Calibration settings in LR. Hue=-40, Saturation=+10. I've tried other values as well, but it just doesn't look as good as DPP does by default. Output image is named: LR_20070408_4038_compensated.jpg
    I would greatly appreciate some pointers that does not require me to custom-fixup every image.
    The editing capabilities of LR are wonderful (!), but if the end-result simply looks not-so-pleasing for Canon RAW images, it simply wouldn't be practical to use for Canon users. :(

  • CS3 PRINTING VERY DARK COLOR PRINTS ISSUE

    Hi,
    This is the situation:
    I work on an Eizo CG241W calibrated monitor, and Epson 9880, 9800 and 4800 printers profiled with i1 PRO and EYE-One Match Software. But recently we made a move from Windows to Mac, and since then the color prints are being printed much darker then they used to. I havent been able to figure out was causing it. The issue is the same with all printers.
    With the black and white prints printed in Advanced B&W and selecting "normal" (not dark, or darker...) they come out perfect. Just as in the screen. But not the color prints. I need to make them really look very very light on screen to get them where they should. Before I needed to make them lighter, but not as much as now. Same images and files Im talking about. Ive used Epson canned profiles and im having same results, variations, but as dark as with the created profiles.
    Thanks for reading and any help on this.
    Best,
    Alex

    Hi,
    Thanks Seth, Ballard, Lundberg, and everybody.
    The problem has been solved but the mystery remains.
    The issue wasnt in the steps needed to print. Thats what I do in the studio where I work most of the time. We calibrate monitors daily and the printers every month more or less. Ive been doing it here for over a year with no problem. This started when we changed platforms and equipment.
    However, tired of this, we decided to wipe out clean the printers mac station. Reformat, reinstall all software and drivers, reconfig, etc. And now is working. What was the problem? Who knows.
    Thanks again to all,
    best,

  • Very dull color of Lightroom exported JPEG

    My exported JPEG images from Lightroom turn out to be very dull in prints. My monitor is calibrated with EYE ONE (Color Management System). Used correct color space for the printing company (either sRGB or AdobeRGB) I followed instruction about Export process. But still color is not right. Is there anything I should do to get the same color quality as I see in the Lightroom? I think images in the lightroom show much brighter than they are after print (by printing company like Costco/Blurb/Shutterfly) Thank you very much for your help!

    You need to have your monitor fairly dim (80-130 lumens or so) to reproduce color. I thought eyeone actually calibrates brightness but I could be wrong. Most people have their monitors set far too bright. Next, you need to look at your pictures using a good fairly bright lamp with much higher color temperature than most desk lamps. If you are getting dull prints (as opposed to just dark) the likely culprit is the wrong colorspace or bad calibration. Some calibrators simply turn out to be broken. Do the pictures look dull too after export in another managed app such as Photoshop, preview, etc? Lastly, you have to realize that it is simply not possible to reproduce every color you can see on a good screen on paper. This can lead to lower saturation. This is the reason why soft proofing is important, which unfortunately is not yet possible in Lightroom.

  • Very different color noise between develop module and library

    There is a marked difference in the appearance of an image when viewed in the library versus the develop module. The color noise in the library module is very bad, while in the develop module, the noise reduction is doing a pretty good job. This is strictly a view problem, because if I export from the library, the proper color noise reduction is applied and it appears as it does in the develop module. This is not the first time that I have found this problem between the two modules. Any idea why this is happening? And, is there a fix in the works? It makes it hard to view images in the library.
    If I boost the color noise reduction up to 100, the library image starts to look ok, but that doesn't account for the huge difference at lower settings.
    There is also a dramatic slow down in the develop module when trying to make any of these changes in noise reduction and more, and also in side-by-side when trying to scroll around in the image to compare areas. Things really crawl. There is a definite two or three second delay before things respond. I have 8gigs in this mac pro, which worked beautifully with LR 3.6

    And, is there a fix in the works?
    Try rendering 1:1 previews for noisy images.
