Why photos look warmer in Safari??

Hi everyone,
I am using CS3 on my 2006 white iMac to edit my photos. I adjust the colour temperature of my photos so that they look natural in CS3. However, after posting them on Flickr, they looks much warmer on Safari. If I use FireFox (instead of Safari) to view my photos on Flickr, the colours look natural again, similar to what I see in CS3.
The warmer tone is definitely caused by Safari. Can I adjust Safari to correct this issue?
Here is an example. Try to view this photo using Safari, and then view it using another browser like FireFox or Internet Explorer.

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, TD.
If Safari respects and interprets the colour profile attached to the image, then the photos in Safari should look the same as in CS3. Unless I am mistaken, CS3 always uses the attached color profile.
So why do other browsers display my photos similar to what I see in CS3?

Suddenly jpg photos are displayed incorrectly (like overlit), also when they are downloaded which means that the files somehow get corrupted. The same photos look perfect in Safari.

Firefox displays large jpg photos incorrectly, they are all like over lit and there is a real quality loss since just right clicking on a link of the photos and downloading them also displays them incorrectly in any photo tool. Looking at the photos in Safari and downloading them there displays no quality loss. I really hope this can be fixed.

Photos look great on a MAC. and not so great on a PC. why?

the subject says it all.
my photos look perfect on a MAC(safari and firefox). when i view my photos on a PC(explorer and firefox), they look dark, over saturated, and sometimes out of focus! can somebody tell me why this happens ? can this be fixed? its not the monitor because i've looked at the site on several machines.
any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I look at you site with safari on the mac and ie on the pc side and see so difference.
If you are accessing with ie on the mac, it's not going to work. very outdated.
On the pc side make sure it's the latest version and java is enabled.
again, it look the same to me.
good luck

Why does my web page, created on iWeb, look correct on Safari but has thick black lines all over it in Firefox?

Why does my web page, created on iWeb, look correct on Safari but has thick black lines all over it in Firefox?

What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand? I assume those black lines are around photos or objects that have had a frame or drop shadow added to it, right? If so that's a known issue.
There's a workaround for that in this tutorial: #7 - Converting Photos w/Frames, Drop Shadows and/or Reflections into a Single Image File. That should get rid of those black lines/boxes.

Why do my photos in "photos" look so washed out compared to iPhoto?

I don't like "PHOTOS," and I don't know why Apple came out with it for OS10. My pictures look washed out compared to how they look in iPhoto I can't just click on a photo and see it in full screen. What am I missing?

I took them with various cameras. But that isn't important. I'm comparing how the same photos look in Photos and how they look in iPhoto. They look better in iPhoto.

Why do photos look fine on camera, but too dark on iphoto? Have to edit almost every indoor shot to lighten

Why do my photos look fine on the digital, but too dark on iphoto? I have to edit almost every indoor picture to lighten. camera is new. have ilife. iphoto is crowded-could that be problem?

No - iPhoto probbably is not crowded (it workd up to 250,000 photos) and even if it is that has no effect on the screen display
what color profile are you using? What calibration is your screen set to?

HT4356 Why can I not print attachments from gmail on my ipad mini, it will print photos and anything from safari

Why can I not print attachments from gmail on my ipad mini, it will print photos or anything from safari?

For Gmail attachments, if they are PDF files (as well as many other formats) when you are viewing them on the iPad in Safari there is an option to "Open in iBooks" just below the tab you have open (at the top of the page).
From iBooks you can print them to a wireless printer easily.
Hope this helps.

Why does my photo look normal in Adobe RAW, but when opened in CS6 it becomes strongly color banded

Had this problem once before, but uninstalled all my Nikon viewing etc software and it cleared up. Haven't changed anything since then, but it just started doing it again. Photo looks normal in Adobe camera raw, but when opened from there into CS6 it becomes highly color banded and cartoonish looking. On some pictures it's only happening in the brighter, highlight areas, in others the whole picture is affected. I'm using a high end Alienware computer and didn't have any issues for about the first year, my graphics card drivers are up to date, will check on monitor drivers next I guess.

What are your Color Settings?
Please provide screenshots to illustrate the issue and set the Status Bar or Info Panel to display the Document Profile.

Photos look different (bad) when placed in InDesign CS4

I'm having a problem in that my photos look bad when viewed in InDesign. I labor on my photos until they're looking perfect in Photoshop -- with just the right color balance and tonalities -- but when I place them in ID, they look much darker and redder, or oversaturated. Then I look at them again in Photoshop, and they look fine. What gives? Which program is showing the real state of the photo? Btw, the photos are using the same color profile in both programs and the monitor is unchanged b/w viewings.
I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and what I can do about this? It makes me very nervous to see my photos looking so bad in InDesign, where I prepare my layouts for offset printing. Will they print as I see them in Photoshop or will they print as I see them in InDesign (which would be dreadful)? At this point I'm hesitant to make further adjustments and hoping it's the Photoshop view that's correct.
But why is this happening in the first place? Is there some setting I should be fixing? Or is there a color issue or incompatiblity b/w Photoshop and InDesign that I'm unaware of?
I'm using ID and Photoshop CS4 on Mac OSX 10.4.11
Hope someone out there can help me with this issue.
Thanks in advance!

There's a discrepancy in the way Photoshop and ID display images on the screen. I wasn't aware of this before.
If your display performance is set at High Quality there's no significant difference in the way color is displayed between PS and ID. The screen capture linked below shows a CMYK file with no profile assigned, side by side in ID and PS. The ID file has no profile assigned and the CMYK Working Spaces are the same for both programs:
http://www.zenodesign.com/scripts/IDPS.png
You can check the RGB values of the screen capture in Photoshop and there is virtually no difference—I could only find an occasional 1 gray level in 1 channel shift.
If you are seeing a color change with a High Quality display setting then chances are you have a color management issue.
Syncing your Color Settings doesn't guarantee matching color between the programs because you are just syncing the program's Working Spaces, and they don't necessarily color manage the documents (assigned profiles override the Working Space). If you are assigning profiles in PS, the assigned profiles need to match your ID doc's assigned profile (which could be different then the ID Working Space)

Press pdf's photos look low res

Hey,
I wrote a press pdf of an Indesign file that incorporated photography. It looked great as usual. But I imported the same content for a resize and wrote a new press pdf and the photo part of the pdf looks very low resolution. I reimported the photos and tried again. But now I'm at a loss. Anyone help please?

After successfully writing(exporting) a press pdf of an ad created in Indesign. I copied the Indesign's file content to another Indesign file with a slightly different size. I wrote another press pdf of the new Indesign file and the photography (on the new pdf) looks horribly low res. But nothing about the photos changed except they're slightly (5%) smaller. No new settings in either program (Acrobat or Indesign) So I have one press pdf that looks brilliant and the other like a zerox copy. I can't figure out why. Never happened before. Type looks great, border rules look great. Everything but the photography.
I'll explore using the object inspector as you suggested. But I doubt it'll tell me why the photos look great in one pdf and not the other. When nothing should have changed.
Thanks for getting back to me.

Photos look good in CS6 but grainy in other programs

I am using CS6 and doing various editing on photos. They are raw files initially and once I am finished with the editing and flattening I save them as .png files. The photos look great when I view them in photoshop yet when I look at them in Bridge or other programs (Windows), they look grainy and the colors appear muted. Any ideas on what may be the cause?

the colors appear muted.
Did you embed the profile?
Why png anyway?
As for the grainyness:

Photos looking out of focus after I save them.

My photos look great after my layers and saving, but when I try to upload them online, email, or print they don't look the same.Kind of out of focus/blurry. I've tried for hours and can't seem to figure out why this is happening. Please, if you know, help is needed!!

I just realized they are also not as clear looking
Is the profile embedded and do the programs you use to display the uploaded images use color management?
As for the blurriness: That sounds like some (automatic) resampling may have taken place.

When I first am looking at my newly uploaded photos in "Library", a box appears near the bottom of the photo that says "loading" (the photo looks good to me), then it is more "faded" and does not look as good. Is there some setting on that I am not aware

When I am first looking at my newly uploaded photos in "Library," a box appears near the bottom of the photo that says "Loading". While it is loading, I usually think the photo looks "good". After the photo is done loading, it looks more washed out. Is there some sort of setting that I might have on (or that I need to turn on) so that this does not happen. I have Lr4. Thanks.

Hi Tracy,
There used to be a way to see if poster was new to the forum.., anyway - welcome to the forum.
As I was alluding to, biggest differences in initial display are due to:
* Camera calibration profile.
* Auto-exposure/contrast settings (for which compensations have been auto-applied in camera, but not in Lightroom).
So, choose a matching camera calibration profile (whether that's an option or not depends on your camera model - they're available for many but not all models) if you prefer one of them over "Adobe Standard" (the factory default profile).
Also, your camera covers for underexposure due to non-optimal auto-exposure/contrast setting, Lightroom doesn't, so your options are:
* turn it off in camera.
* learn to compensate manually (or automatically via a plugin) in Lightroom.
Of course, in addition to preferred defaults (alt-click big "reset" button in dev module), come up with some presets which are appropriate for your druthers and type of photography.. e.g. these will compensate Nikon ADL settings:

Why is the contents of Safari's downloads folder different than the actual folder?

Why is the contents of Safari's downloads folder different than the actual folder that resides in my users folder?

Problem is if I delete that .plist I'll delete those downloads. I'm still able to launch those downloads from that location so that tells that file is probably not corrupted. I need to be able to located that folder and transfer the downloads from it before I do anything like this. So that begs the question, where is that folder located? When I do a folder search I'm taken to a Downloads folder, but it's not the one that is showing up from within Safari as it's contents are too different.
