What is being done to this image?

Can anyone give me some basic pointers to make the image on the left side look more like the image on the right side? I tried adjusting the White Balance with the eyedropper in the Levels by selecting the white on her shirt, I also played with the Levels a bit, though it does not end up looking anything like the image on the right. I'm using CS5.
Thanks for any help!

I guess it would be best to do as much as possible in RAW, but if one starts with a file in Photoshop I’d recommend
• sharpening the image (naturally applied as a Smart Filter)
• a Curves Adjustment Layer to increase the contrast (see screenshot)
• a Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer to increase saturation and make the yellows a bit more red
• another Curves Adjustment Layer, but this one with a (soft) Layer Mask to correct the skin
If you also want to get the background the same yellow-ish color as the reference image’s you’d probably need to make a fairly accurate Mask to make those corrections.
As the changes are pretty steep it might be a good idea to work in 16bit.

    Yesterday Colloquy crashed on my iPad after an Arabic text string was pasted into the IRC channel that I was on. Another user using Linkinus under Mountain Lion on her Macbook Pro was also affected. As I understand it, this vulnerability has to do with applications that use Webkit. What is being done about it? Can we expect security updates for Mountain Lion and iOS 6 soon?

    AFAIK, there has not been an update regarding this issue as yet.

  • All of the movies that we watch on I tunes have intermittent interruptions to the audio.  It's like a one second blank every 20 seconds and we miss what is being said.  This is independent of which movie is playing.  Our Apple TV is hardwired.

    All of the movies that we watch on I tunes have intermittent interruptions to the audio.  It's like a one second blank every 20 seconds and we miss what is being said.  This is independent of which movie is playing.  We are on Shaw and have purchased their best modem and registered for the higher speed option.  Our Apple TV receiver is hard wired back to our network hub and the hub is working correctly.  There is no problem with the video.  What could be causing this problem?

    I own the movies and I want them to stay in my iTunes library basically forever.
    But in both cases the file name no longer shows in the movie list, so I don't know how to re-download it from the Cloud.
    iTunes prefs > Store > Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.
    This will show all your iTunes purchases in your library with a cloud icon down arrow. Click the icon to redownload or click on Play to stream without downloading.
    Also see this , -> Download past purchases
    and techncially, you don't "own" the movie, You simply have a license to use it.
    Yet the first thing iTunes does when you hit the delete key is tell you that it will remove the movie forever from all devices and the library.
    Actually, no it does not tell you that.
    FYI: You should keep copies of all yoru iTnue spurahses as the labels/movie studios/copyright owners can pull their product at anytime and it won't be available to redownload.

    What is being done about users inability to use their Apple ID at iTunes Store. I do not have another Apple ID, I do not want to change my password and I want my phone to work as it should.

    You can try signing out and signing back in. You can also go into Settings > Safari and Clear all Cookies. You can even try logging into the iTunes Store on a computer and downloading a free app or something.
    If none of those work, then you will have to wait for the issue to be resolved on Apple's end.

  • What should be done for this ?

    hi ,
    here is my question ..my xml will have
    <Message>
    <ATO>
    <somefiled="X" type=int value=35 />
    </ATO>
    <FIX>
    <somefiled="Y" type=String value=50 />
    <FIX>
    </Message>
    Now first i have to parse this xml ..then my java program is going to accept value from user ..and depending on user specified value i've to use either ATO or FIX fields...e.g if user value is 35 then my program should use fields within ATO node.
    what should be done for this ..
    and what if i change values in my xml file..will i have to restart my application to load xml again ?

    I have changed your XML to make it well formed. Please refer this further in this reply.
    Well Formed XML:
    <Message>
         <ATO somefiled="X" type="int" value="35"/>
         <FIX somefiled="Y" type="String" value="50"/>
    </Message>

    what should be done for this ..A simple XPath Query can do trick for you, it can give you ATO or FIX element according to user specified value. XPath query can be:
    // replace ##user_specified_value## with value user enters.
    String xPathquery= "/Message/child::*[@value='##user_specified_value##']";

  • HT6084 Since upgrading to OS X Mavericks I have not been able to work on any MS Word tracked changes documents (works fine if no tracked changes), as every time upon opening such a word file the word processor closes / crashes. What can be done in this ca

    Since upgrading to OS X Mavericks I have not been able to work on any MS Word tracked changes documents (works fine if no tracked changes or comments in the doc). Every time upon opening such a word file with tr.changes the word processor closes / crashes.
    What can be done in this case?

    I just discovered that by turning off in tracked changes balloons in Word preferences prevents the software from crashing, but from then on I need to use only the review pane.

  • I have seen numerous discussions as to jetpack data consumption.  My new jetpack is adding up way too much data usage.  What can be done about this?

    Why is my jetpack recording an incredible amount of data usage?  I'm getting alerts on a daily basis.  All I do is read email and shop online.  What is Verizon doing about this?  I've used a data calculator and I shouldn't be using a third of what is being billed.  A lot of nasty stuff on these posts.

    > it was recorded that my jetpack used 13gigs in one day; this cannot be correct.
    There is a common concern that many wireless users share on this subject.  Unfortunately VZW holds all the cards when it comes to the actual details on what happened resulting with your final billing statement.
    The only thing we as consumers can do is try to setup monitors on our own and funnel our internet traffic through those devices/applications.  With a monitor in place there is a better chance that you can identify leaks and stop them before it makes it to your bill.
    Keep in mind that data usage has nothing to do with what you are intentionally doing on the internet.  Data usage relates to what is actually happening behind the scenes.  If you, your neighbor, your dog or your toaster is online and consuming internet through your VZW device then VZW will hold you accountable for it.  Its similar to a hose that you turn on in your yard, a utility company doesn't care who did it, they only care that they sent XYZ gallons of water to your residence.  What worked well on your previous provider may not work well on VZW resulting in retries and increased usage for the same actions.
    Don't get too hung up on the timestamps that VZW offers you in their alerts or reports. There are all sorts of examples where billing is delayed for various reasons. Use the timestamps as a clue, not as actual evidence that can be relied on during your investigation.

  • What can be done about this outrageous bill??!

    Ok, here's some back story; My girlfriend and I were on the same plan for about a year or so. Here recently we broke up and she continued on the plan for about another month while we were working out some money issues. During that time (not having any Wifi at her house) she constantly watched shows and such on her phone, which sky rocketed the phone bill into it's 70th overage allowance!!! Her line ended up using a total of 80 gigs while mine only used about 5, which is normal. I kicked her off immediately and had her accept responsibility for her own line. I know, I should of done it earlier, but it was a different situation then. Lesson learned I guess.
    When that happened, it obviously started a fresh new plan for her and I was stuck with a $1,400 bill! I asked Verizon (customer reps, hadn't spoken to any "supervisors" yet) if there was anything that could be done as far as her taking responsibility for her part of the bill. The obvious answer was no, simply because I'm the account owner and it's my responsibility, which I think is absolutely ridiculous! I'm not the one sitting her ringing up a bill that high. She did it on her line, it's her responsibility! That should follow her over to her account, and she should be liable for paying for the charges she rung up! That would be fair, right?? The way they have it set up now isn't in any way, shape or form fair. When asking about how much time I'd have to pay it, I was told they could only push it out a couple of days. I don't make anywhere near that much in such a short time, let alone with having other bills to pay and everything, and they expect you to just cough it over that quick!
    I'm on here to see if there's anything at all that can be done about this stupidly high bill, or if any Verizon associates here might be able to help. If not, I'll take my number and go to another carrier. This is ridiculous and I'm not at all happy!

    As the account owner, you are personally responsible for all charges on your account.  Period.
    If you feel that another person is responsible for the charges, then Small Claims Court would be the avenue for you to explore.
    You might want to contact Verizon Financial Services and set up payment arrangements for the amount you owe.  There might be more that they can do to schedule a series of payments.
    Financial Services:  866-266-1445
    Customer Service:
    Dial *611 from your cell phone
    (800) 922-0204
    Monday-Sunday 6 am-11 pm
    And even though she is off your account now, you might also want to set up data alerts on your account so that you get alerted when you are near your data limit.  It's one thing to be a little bit over, but 80GB?  Seriously?

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • I can't register Spore and now I can't play it either, it just wants me to debug it then won't. What have I done? This game has been a pain from the start.

    I bought this game some time ago but have never been able to register it. I even bought another one when they became cheaper but still can't register. I've tried every whichway and now it won't load either. It wants me to debug then it won't. I've tried trashing then reinstalling but no luck. The Spore creature creator won't play either. What did I do and is there a cleanup software Mac users can recommend? Thanks

    Carol,
    BTW please update your profile, you aren't using OS X 10.1.x. If you don't know what version you're using click the Apple Symbol in the upper left of this screen and select About this Mac. Once you know the version  you can update your profile by clicking Your Stuff on this screen (upper right) and you will see the Profile link. This is useful so we can help you troubleshoot problems.
    You can remove apps 3 ways.
    Inquire with the developer to see if they have an Uninstall routine. I suspect this game does not.
    Drag the app to the Trash
    Download and install an app such as AppCleaner. You can find it at www.macupdate.com and search for AppCleaner.

  • Lightroom 4 DISASTER!!- What has Adobe done to this once great product

    Lightroom 4:  This is what happens when you try to produce a product that is all things to all people!  Stills, Video, Book Publication etc  The program is now bloated with too many modules and as a result it is far too slow for professional use (unlike Lightroom 3).  Looks like an oppertunity for Aperture or Capture One.

    This once great product probably wont change from the DISASTER that Adobe have made.
    But they could have made iterations of LR
    L4V for video guys
    LER4 for beginners and amateurs
    LR4B for those who want to make books
    LR4W for those who make galleries
    LR4P for the professionals and
    LRWTF4 for those who wanted it to make the coffee and wash the dishes.
    That is 6 iterations of Lightroom, each for $80. Then what happens if I want option 1 and 5... Hmmm, that is $160, Now I object as that is loads a money.
    So they did not as they opted to make LR4 which is what they've offered us and we've bitched and moaned about through the testing and they've listened to us and made improvements, checked bugs and tweaked things here and there and now we have
    Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4
    LR4  allows you / one to catalog your photos, to edit your photos to a new level that makes LR3 so last century, if you make books for clients as do many people, you can now do it  through LR, you can even take images out from your videos shot with your high end VDSLR's.
    It still prints for those who print and it still makes web galleries for those who do that.
    You can put your photos onto a map and add that location to the images to send wherever you want online.
    I'm gonna get my copy this weekend, and with great excitement. I'm going to print off a couple of prints of animals from the Kruger National Park where I've spent the last 3 days working. I'm going to tag ALL the photos with Kruger National Park, and I'm gonna make a new gallery for this shoot. As I charged a good sum for the shoot, I'm also going to make a book of the best photos and send that to the client, so they can put it in their game lodge, and my photos will be seen by all their clients from around the world. Hell, one or two may say
    "Hey, there are some great photos, here's the photographers details, I'll see if he will sell me a print"
    All for $80
    BARGAIN,

  • Everytime I open Firefox it functions for a matter of seconds before freezing and becoming completely unresponsive, what can be done about this?

    After freezing up today(which it has done from time to time before), Firefox has now become completely unresponsive. I have repeatedly attempted to restart it but the program will freeze up almost immeadiately every time, each time requiring a close via the task manager.
    Nothing has changed since last night except for this unresponsivness. I just tried uninstalling my older version and downloading the current version but the problem has persisted. What else can I try?

    I have the same problem on two Windows 7 x64 installations.
    Firefox 4.0.1
    Addons in common: Firebug
    Firefox does not crash, it just becomes unresponsive, but the moment it becomes responsive again (couple seconds to 15 seconds or more,) it will just become unresponsive again. There is next to no CPU usage and there is nothing running in the background that could possible slow it down. I also notice that FF momentarily will stop responding for around 1/2 to 1 second. Then continue to be fine. I'm finding that Chrome is acting up as well but IE is working fine. I also found that Google.com seems to exacerbate the problem.

    Thanks for your input. However I am hard pressed to see any rational correlation between the recent trojan and security issues on the https Apple Support Communities. Getting log-out after such a short amount of time  is the antithesis of user friendly behavior.
