Warning: ColorSync Profile change

Warning: The default icc-color profile (ColorSync Profile) exporting images out of Aperture is sRGB! AND the Export Presets switch back to sRGB after changing. This happens with the own Export Presets too. I think this is a bug.

My Resume after a lot of tests:
* Pictures without a ICC color profile got a sRGB Profile without asking.
* Export RAW Pictures out of Aperture from my Nikon D70 with the embedded Adobe-RGB ICC profile using "Use Source Profile" ends into a profile called "Linear RGB" opening the file in Photoshop.
There are no problems with Photoshop embedded ICC-Profiles. This is RAW (Nikon D70) only.
* Export Presets always switch back to sRGB after changing. This happens with my own Export Presets too. (Using "Export Version")
Are there other People with this problem?

Batch change colorsync profile

I have moved an iPhoto library from a PowerBook to an iMac. For all photos I had the Color LCD colorsync profile embedded, which looks good in the PowerBook but washed-out in the iMac. I now embed the sRGB profile for new pictures, but I would like to batch change the old ones. Snow Leopard has an Embed script that will change the profile. Would it be safe to show contents in the iPhoto Library and drag the folders containing the old photos onto the script? Apart from Modified and Originals do I need to do this for other folders?
Many thanks
George

George:
You could apply the new color profile to the original and modified files and iPhoto would see them when you opened iPhoto the next time. However, unless do you the same for the thumbnails the thumbnail will not display the sRGB profile while the original or modified will.
Select an event to test on. The hardest part will be finding a modified version since the subfolder in the Modified folder will often be just have the date modified as the folder name. What you can do is convert the originals and thumbnails and then do a Revert to Original for all the photos and that will get rid of the modified files that weren't converted.
NOTE: That's the only change/edit to photos you can made from the Finder to the contents of the iPhoto Library. Any other type of change/edit will mess up the library.

Possible to change iPhoto colorsync profile?

I have iPhoto 6 set up that on import it assigns a colorsync profile to an image. In my case that turns out to be the "AdobeRGB(1988)" profile.
Where can I change this to maybe another profile? As usual, there's nothing in the help files.

Yes. Command (right) - click on the book in the left hand pane and select Duplicate.
Open the duplicate copy and go the Change Themes button and click on it. In the next window you can change size within the same theme.
The reason for the backup is in case the text might be lost or garbled up due to size changes in the text boxes. You can copy what is in the original library and paste it into the different sized library after adjusting text size if necessary.
Happy Holidays

Problem on Mac OS [ColorSync/Profiles/EW-sRGB Tag 'desc': Tag size is not correct. Could not be fixed.]

Problem on Mac OS [ColorSync//Profiles/EW-sRGB
Tag 'desc': Tag size is not correct. Could not be fixed.]
My screen contrast has gone awry and the ColorSync Utility is unable to fix the problem. In searching the wisdom of the web, I found a response from 2009 on another forum, which referenced this forum. But the thread is gone. The information was in regard to the Color Profiler. Can anyone help? Has anyone had to deal with this? I found a lot of people looking to fix this, but not a lot of follow-up replies with answers. I have tried reinstalling the file from a back-up and re-booting, but to no avail. Some have suggested a problem with the Epson software. But without any detail, I don't know what to look to change. Any help, advice, cures, etc. would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Sorry, I thought you asked what course of action to take.
It means the data for that "tag" in the profile is not the size expected - I know, that's obvious too. The 'dmnd' tag contains the manufacturer's description.

You could try opening it in ColorSync Utility and editing the tag.

Embed ColorSync profile, how to get back to original color profile?

I am a bit shocked , experienced today that iPhoto by default embed ColorSync profile (found under general- advanced settings for iPhoto) to every photo imported.
I always believed (and trusted) iphoto did not change the original file from the memory card. I have compared today the file from the memory card and the one found under originals in iPhoto library and see now that iphoto darken the shadows area a bit, in my eyes not a good thing.
So my question is , is the process done by iPhoto reversible? Can I get back the original profile (sRGB I believe) for my photos?

iPhoto by default embed ColorSync profile (found under general- advanced settings for iPhoto) to every photo imported.
Well let's get past the shock for you. It doesn't.
If the photo has a pre-existing color profile then the file is not touched. iPhoto uses the one already embedded. It only adds a profile if 1: there is none present and 2. If you check the box.
The profile attached is virtually indistinguishable from sRGB, just adapted slightly for Apple monitors.
Search the Help for ColorSync. This explains it quite clearly.

Can't Use Previous Colorsync Profile

I just changed from a 17 in to a 19 in lcd monitor - same brand, just a difference in size.
When I was using the 17 in I used the Display Calibrator in System Prefs to create a profile I liked. Although it still appears in the Colorsync Profile folder, it does not show up to be selected in System Preferences with 19 in monitor hooked up.
Why would the old profile not be selectable?
I have tried making a new calibration, but I can't duplicate the old one exactly. What can I do to make the old one selectable, or create a new one just like it?
Thanks.

Could you possibly have the "Show profiles for this display only" checkbox checked? That would probably prevent the previous profile from showing up in the list.
Otherwise, maybe open the Colorsync Utility (in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder) and use the Profile First Aid pane to verify or repair your profiles.
Hope this helps...

HR PA and Planning (PD profile) changes not updating auth profiles of users

PROBLEM:
We are on ERP version 6 since 2008. We started experiencing this problem December last year and now it is all over our system. As soon as employees are transferred or new appointments are made in HR on PA or if the PD profile is changed in planning the changes cannot be seen by the user in their auth profile. The user can literally not see the newly appointed employee on the org structure or even newly created org units and positions are not visible. When RE_RHAUTH00 is run on the user name the update indicates that the changes (new employee and new org unit) is linked.
The following updates run every night: RHPROFL0_DAILY_UPDATE and RHUATUPD_NEW. I have also run PFUD during the day to make sure all updates go through. We have also "played" with some profiles with PD profile changes but it is as if the profile remains completely static. We have looked for personnel lists and deleted them to no avail. Our Basis administrator has cleared the buffer for us and has run report RSUSR405 that did not do anything. We have searched through notes on Support packages and have just loaded and tested support pack 46 to 53. The only work around seems to be to delete the user and create a new user and then it seems to easily accept new changes.

Hi,
Yes, please make it scheduled background job. This is normal procedure.
Define periodicity on your business needs: some run it every night, some every hour.

Warning on Unsaved Changes Functional Pattern

Overview
One advantage of integrated applications is users can easily navigate just about anywhere based on current needs. However, with the added flexibility also comes the increased risk of unsaved data accidentally being lost when navigating away from a page. Therefore, many applications typically warn the user when this is about to occur. Using the new warning on unsaved changes feature, 11g ADF applications can easily implement this type of functionality.
Click here to see the document that describes this pattern.
Edited by: Richard Wright on May 13, 2010 1:10 PM

Hi,
I have a page with an edit form. The user can close/leave the page by clicking on different buttons (menu items, close icon, back button). In this case, the system should warn the user about unsaved data. Furthemore, I want to skip data validation. I tried to implement the "Warning on Unsaved Changes Functional UI Pattern", although this approach doesn't skip data validation. How should I do this?
I'm using ADF 11g.

Is there any possibilities to track who has done the MRP profile change.In mm02 its not in editable mode.when i check in MM04 for the particular material its showing lot many changes.so i couldnt figure out who has done. i want who has done the changes in the particular field mrp type ?

Hi ,
Goto MM02 -Enter Material -Environment - Display Changes - Here ,You will get list of changes in transaction with time , user id .
Now if you select the check box and hit magnifying glass symbol , it will take you to the changes done by certain user .
For MRP profile :
In the Material Master menu, choose Profile ® MRP profile ® Usage.
The selection screen appears.
Enter the name of the profile. You can also enter a plant and MRP controller to restrict the selection. Then choose Execute.
A list is displayed of the material master records in which the MRP profile is used. You now have the following options:
You can display or change the MRP profile by choosing Display profile or Change profile respectively.
You can display or change a particular material master record in which the MRP profile is used by choosing Display material or Change material respectively. In the material master for industry, the MRP view on the material master record appears, from which you can access the other views. In the article master for retail, the Display or Change Article: Initial Screen appears.

Simulating DNG Profile changes in PSD file

Hello everyone,
I have a RAW file and applied Adobe's default DNG Profile (via the Camera Calibration panel in Lightroom 2.6) and converted it to a PSD file so I can retouch the photo via Photoshop CS3.
After hours of retouching, I now want to apply a custom DNG Profile that I made from a Color Checker. However, I'm not able to apply the profile to "already-rendered images" (http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/DNG_Profiles:FAQ#WhyOnlyEmbedded)
So my question is: Is there any way to simulate the effects of a profile change via Photoshop adjustments (i.e. HUE/SAT adjustments)?
Please feel free to let me know if more clarification is needed.
Thanks,
David

I thought I'd posted a reply but I failed to make it stick, somehow. Anyway, thanks Jim for that. Makes perfect sense.
Except I've just had a further thought. Why would Adobe change a file name to distinguish between color spaces if DNGs/RAWs are color-space agnostic? Where it would make sense is with jpegs, but name-changing doesn't happen there, of course, as there's no conversion taking place.

Shared Libraries on Mac OSX Server - Colorsync Profiles, Fonts etc.

Hello,
Our office have 10.5.5 Server running with approximately 25 clients attached (all on Mac OSX 10.5.5). We have a number of colour printers which we regularly profile, and are trying to find a way to syncronise Colorsync profiles across the client machines.
I have read that it is possible to share a library on the Server...ie. update the Colorsync profiles in one location on the server and all the clients would have immediate access to this. Makes sense.
However, our external IT consultant has advised me that when you share a Library, it will share everything (fonts, settings, application support files etc.) and will essentially replace an overwrite the local library on each machine. We would like to avoid this as we only want to share the Colorsync profiles and have them be additive to the local library rather than overwrite the whole lot.
Is he correct? I can't believe that it wouldn't be possible just to share the Colorsync profiles...ie. set the share point at the 'Colorsync' level in the library?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

anyone?

Colorsync profile list empty

I have .icc profiles in both my user and system ColorSync Profile folders and when I try to select a profile from within an application, my ColorSync Profile list is empty. Anyone have any ideas?

Absolutely use the calibrated profile. sRGB originated as an approximation of what most CRT monitors could display. But it was just an approximation and differs quite a bit from Color LCD or any calibrated profile. Color LCD for MacBook Pros is actually quite a bit smaller than sRGB and reflects the fact that laptop LCDs can't display the same range of colours as, say, and Apple Cinema Display. Have a look at the different profiles in ColorSync Utility to get a feel for what they all look like. Select a profile and then rotate the 3-D map of the profile in the right-hand side pane.
If you have calibrated your monitor and they came out with a green tint I would suggest that the problem is more likely with the printer rather than your monitor. (You are way ahead of 95% of people - myself included - by using a hardware calibrator; nonetheless, you could do the calibration again and compare the resulting profiles by, say, switching between them and seeing how that affects your colour display on your monitor or by comparing them in ColorSync Utility.)
To isolate the problem - try using a different printer for your next run and compare. Indeed, if you have the time and care enough, try sending the same file to various printers to see the variation. Pick one you are happy with and then stick with them.

Where are ICC profiles stored in Aperture? Formerly they were stored in the home map. I make my own ICC profiles, with Color Munki. I can't find them back in the /library/colorSync/Profiles. I'm using a Canon printer iPF5100

ICC profiles
Formerly ICC profiles where placed in the Home map: library/colorcync/profiles. But the home map does

Kees, the color profiles are still stored in your user library in
~/ColorSync/Profiles/
I can't find them back in the /library/colorSync/Profiles.
Are you looking in the System Library folder /Library/colorSync/Profiles at the top level of your system drive?
As you probably know, your User Library is hidden since Mac OS X Lion.
You can reveal it from the Finder's "Go" menu in the main menu bar:
Finder > Go
Then hold down to options-key ⌥, until Library appears in the drop-down menu. Select it and open the Library.

Colour Profile change after Exporting a version

Hi
Has any one had this problem - and found a solution?
My Aperture Preferences are set to - Adobe RGB 1998.
Now,
1     -     if I select an image in Aperture then select EDIT WITH ADOBE PHOTOSHOP
                 the image is opened in p/s
                    when I view the image in Bridge
                         the colour profile is correct - Adobe RGB 1998
Problem:
2     -     if I select an image, then EXPORT A VERSION (to my desk top)
                    the colour profile changes to sRGB   ?
                    Don't understand why this is happening - anybody know why?
                         Thanks
                              Tony (from London)

The color profile is part of the export preset as Keith pointed out
Make sure the preset you are using has the color profile you want.

ColorSync profiles and image size

For some reasons, why I apply a colorsync profile to an image and save the image, the file size goes down by about 50%. Does anyone know why this happens or how this can be avoided?
Could it have something to do with the fact that when you save an image in Preview is it's pre-set to save JPG images at 'almost best' quality, but not 'best' quality?
Does this 50% decrease in file size mean the image has been compressed and lost information?
Also, while I'm on the topic, which is the best coloursync profile to apply to my images if I may use them for creating iPhoto books? The sRGB profile makes the images look a bit dark on my screen, as does Camera RGB. However, the sRGB IEC1996-2.1 looks about the right one, but I don't really know much about color management.

Hi Tom,
Everytime you save an image as a jpg it does become more compressed and is usually a smaller file size. That does not necessarily mean that you are losing image quality.
When you save images, you are most of the time optimizing the image. Which means, trying to make the file size as small as possible without any loss in image quality. Optimization is the result of the images you see on the internet, they need to be of high quality but a reasonable file size.
For printing purposes you probably would want to save the file as 'highest' possible quality. I have printed 5mb jpg files to as large as 20 x 30 with no loss of quality. Preview allows you to save at the highest quality by using the 'Save As' option...
Color Profile - As far as what others may see compared to what you see on your screen. I would probably bet almost everyone will see a slightly different image depending on computer type, screen, monitor brightness etc.
