Yellow tint to photos after iMovie renders

Has anyone had a problem with iMovie rendering photos with a yellow tint? The photos look fine in the clip window, but when they are rendered they become tinted.
Help
Thank YOu
Patricia

I used the same color orange for some text earlier in the project so I'm
thinking that must have something to do with it.
Good catch. Yes, there was an iMovie bug that would sometimes apply the last-used text color to other clips when adding a visual effect. The solution is to quit iMovie, then open the project, remove the effect, then re-apply it.
I didn't think this bug had survived into iMovie 5 (the Discussion area you've posted in) but perhaps it did.

Lumia 1020 adds yellow tint to photos

I'm posting this because numerous other people have posted with the same major issue, and there seems to be no update on what is happening...

http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nokia-Lumia/Lumia-1020-Disable-Post-Processing/m-p/2031912/highlight...
My 1020 will take a crisp, beautiful shot and then after viewing it for a few seconds, a yellow tint is added to the photo and some clarity seems to be lost. It happens with any white balance setting and isn't fixable within Creative Studio.
I may be mistaken, but it seems like this problem just started. (I have had my phone for about 5 days). I will try to re-create some photos I took last week and see if, indeed, this odd processing problem just started.
I would really like to know if this is a hardware issue or a software issue, and if Nokia is aware of this and if they plan on providing a solution.
I attached 2 screenshots. The first is the photo I want and the second is after it is processed.
For a few seconds I can see the photo that I want... I paid $200 to have that photo when I want it, what's going on?

Thanks Ceron - I suspected as much that it was the Amber update (ironically why else would it be so aptly called the "Amber" update? ) and that it would require a firmware level fix for the camera. I would hope that if Nokia suspects its on MS side that they will be working very closely with them...and quickly. I guess I am hoping that the update that ruined it was on the side of Nokia in the Amber update (since they did add their own features to it). Either way I certainly hope they get their act together and issue the fix in GDR3 or whatever you want to call the next one. I still dont understand how Apple can issue an over the air update in days time without all this carrier review BS and the rest of us have to wait weeks or months for something. That needs to be addressed if they hope to compete. Should we be hammering MS support sites as well? Anyone know of links to dedicated WP support site and if anyone has posted this there?

HT201401 Yellow tint to photos

My IPhone 5 works great in all modes except straight photo. All pictures taken in this mode (both front and back cameras) have a yellow tint. Works fine in video, square and pano modes. Any ideas?

Hello SupermanNH,
It sounds like only 1 mode in your Camera app has this yellow tint you describe. I recommend starting by closing all the running apps:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone and test out the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

Yellow Tint Macbook Pro After Boot Up Screen(Apple Logo with White Background)

Hi guys
I have just recieved my macbook pro 13" 2012 base model, the screen is yellowish when compared to other macbook pros.
The strange issue is that I notice when I power it on, the screen is normal(white is white) at the boot up screen(white background with apple logo in the middle). But the screen will turn yellowish at that screen right before it finishes booting up(right before the screen logs in), like it has loaded a display profile. But thats is not the case though because my display profile is at default like others.
So the screen turns yellowish right before it finishes booting up and comes to my desktop screen.
Any suggestions please? this is my first mac

Hi Colloc
I bought my macbook from the apple online store.
I found out that every macbook pro screen changes colour before the booting up process completes. I did a comparison with another macbook pro (same model) and it turned out like that too. but the thing is, during usage, it can clearly be seen that my screen has a stronger yellow tint compared to the other one.
I returned my macbook and got a refund for now. I really want one but not sure if I should try buying one again.
I sure yours is normal

I get a "shimmer" on some photos after applying & rendering Ken Burns

In a slideshow I'm attempting to make in iMovie, I'm getting a "shimmering" effect after applying the Ken Burns effect to photos I've imported from iPhoto. The shimmer appears most noticeable in shots of scenary, where there is a lot of detail like tree leaves or grass. (In addition, as many others also have noted and complained about, the resolution, and even the color, in iMovie is really a disappointment. This is especially distressing because the original digital photos I took are incredibly crisp and clear, with beautiful color, and the slideshows I made in iPhoto and played on my iMac are gorgeous!). The Ken Burns' "shimmer" & poor resolution in iMovie and burning slideshows onto a DVD seem hardly worth all the time & effort. This is a real shortcoming in the Apple software it seems to me. Apple needs to fix it in future updates to the Tiger operating system or in the forthcoming Leopard.

MagneticMike,
what you see is usually referred to as a 'Moire' pattern that is caused by high-contrast in your source material. This means that exactly the 'incredibly crisp and clear' advantage of your photo is ruining your clip. In photographs, moire problems are usually overcome by slightly softening (e.g gauss blurring) the offending areas before the final render pass. This you can apply to your source image as well, and then import it into iMovie.
Interestingly, a different approach is possible with moving media. Since moire patterns are artificial noise introduced into your clip, people have found that our 'noise filter (combine)' plug-in can get rid of this. Perhaps you can download the plug-in and try if it helps with your problem.
(please try this link: http://imovieplugins.com/plugs/noisefiltercombi.html )
Hope this helps

IDVD doesn't open after iMovie renders

We just finished rendering a movie in iMovie 11. The tutorial said that iDVD would open automatically and it just sits there. IDVD doesn't do a darned thing. The project is due in 3 days, so if anyone has the inside scoop, please let me know..
Thanks,
Sean...

Seems like a glitch in the process somewhere -- try these instructions from Apple to Share the movie:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iMovie/9.0/en/mova719fafd.html
You mention the project was created in iTunes, but I assume you meant iMovie?
"Rendering" typically happens behind the scenes -- which command are you using in iMovie to render multiple times?

Yellow tinted display

Is anyone else still experiencing a yellow tinted display screen after "restoring" to 5A347?
I'm wondering if this problem is isolated to my phone, and it could be exchanged for a new one.

I just exchanged my 3g Black 16 gig iPhone due to a yellowish screen. My new replacement came with the (5A437) version. It is still a bit yellow but now the contrast is off making the text blurry and gray. I have another 3g white 16 gig with the (5A435) version which has no problems. The color is very rich and has deep blacks. I hope the is a way to correct this in the future. Upgrading the version does nothing. This is my 4th replacement phone and I am sick of making trips out to the Apple Store every week.

No monitor profile available. Yellow tint after import

Hello. I have bough last week a new Toshiba notebook which has Windows 8.1 preinstalled on it.
I have noticed a problem that seems other came also on the same issue. When i watch images on a non profile managed software, the images look fine. Once i import them on Lightroom or Photoshop, the images get a yellow tint.
The problem and a possible solution is also described here: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1164320 . This is setting the sRGB as a monitor profile. I know this is not a great solution, but surely better than what i see on my monitor. In any way, this unfortunately this did not work for me.
This is what i mean with the yellow tint (left Lightroom, right Irfan)
Today i tried following:
Step 1
The image is in RAW format. I import it in Lightroom and gets that yellow tint i described.
I export it with sRGB in jpg format. The jpg file has still that yellow tint. Please note here, that others that report similar problems, they mention that after the export they image looks again fine.
Step 2
I open the RAW image with Irfan (not color managed) and save it as jpg. The image is saved "correctly", as you see on the right side of the image above.
Step 3
I import the exported jpeg that was created with Irfan and import it to Lightroom.
The yellow Tint now does not appear on the imported JPEG.
One more tip i can give is: When i do a Soft proofing on Lightroom and choose sRGB i still see that yellow tint.
What exactly is happening ? I try to identify the problem. Why i see just raw images with this yellow tint, no matter the profile i set for my monitor and no matter the proofing options on lightroom.
I don't want to spend 100+ euro for a calibration device and not being able to use the profiles.
Any suggestions for further testing ?

First - Irfanview needs to be at least IV 4.35 and needs to have the LCMS.DLL plug-in installed as well as having the Color Management enabled so that you have some chance of your Photoshop and IrfanView versions of an image matching:
Alright we have the first conflict here.
I have the latest IrfanView version (4.37) , i saw that the Lcms.dll exists in the plugin list, and i have set the settings as suggested.
Furthermore at the moment i have sRGB as my default monitor profile. Still this is how i see things.
IrfanView and Photoshop have the same difference as before. Yes i have rerasted IrfanView on every change. I actually freshly installed also the latest irfanView version with its plugin.

About this
As you can see the Adobe default processing with the Adobe Standard profile, at top left, is a little greenish. This is compared to the default camera processing as viewed in the camera-embedded preview jpg from the CR2 at the bottom right which a white frame around it.
When i open the raw image on LR, i have (from what i can see on my monitor) the same results as your Adobe default processing (Top left) . What confused me on your image above is bottom left image "Adobe processing - Camera standard". What is with Adobe processing meant here? The camera profile? If yes then how can we have Adobe camera profil but also camera standart ? If you mean the process LR provides, mine is set on 2012. But no adobe available for selection. I do not know if this is meant though.
Here is my comparison between Adobe Standart Profile and Camera Standard.
LR: Adobe Profile vs Canon Standart Profile
One more comparison is of the files you made available including the IranView jpg you supplied as compared to the Canon JPG preview that I extracted from the CR2 file:
What you can see is that the CR2 as viewed in LR and LR's exported JPG of that CR2 look about the same (top and bottom left), and the IrfanView and Canon-JPG versions of the CR2 look the same (top and bottom right). This is your IV version of the JPG, not something I made, but I expect IV has just extracted the camera-embedded fullsize preview JPG from the CR2 file just like I did using a different tool, so they look the same, but it is possible your IV is using a Canon-specific plug-in that uses the Canon-supplied SDK library DLLs that can also duplicate Canon processing. I only have the Formats.dll and the CRW.dll but not all the extra SDK DLLs so I expect my IV is only extracting the camera-embedded preview JPG.
Yes i can confirm that also on my environment. The exported CR2 from LR matches the exported JPG as also there is a match between IrfanView CR2 with the Camera standard profile export. Unfortunately i cannot confirm if IrfanView uses a sort of Canon-plugin to make the RAWS rendered automatically with the Canon standard profile.
And if you want your Adobe treatment of CR2 files to look much more similar to your camera's treatment, then use the Camera Standard profile in Lightroom and the PS ACR plug-in.
Question on this. Should i always put a Camera Standart profile on all my images after importing them on LR ?
Also please, let me know what you meant with Adobe Processing. I searched on the web with "Adobe Processing lightroom" , but i could not understand what is meant.
If using the Camera Standard profile doesn't make things look almost the same, then please post a side-by-side of LR's view of the CR2 and IrfanView's JPG extracted from the CR2--what you've linked to, just above.
Here is a comparison between an exported JPG from Lightrom with camera profile (Right) compared to an exported JPG with IrfanView from the RAW (left). As mentioned before the images look identical, with the one exported from LR with Camera profile being a bit more vibrant. But not much of a difference.
IrfanView vs Camera Profile export
So in the end it seems you see also that green-yellowish cast on the RAW image. From what i see on the screenshots you made.
The question now is why i do not see RAW the same as Adobe software ? Could i do this test with an other viewer?
To summerize from my side as well. A monitor calibration is surely good to do. On the other side the cast i see on the RAW in this case has not to do with the profile but rather with Adone profile and the way this image was captured.
PS. I must admit that is one of the best on line support i have ever seen. Thumbs up ssprengel !

IPhoto photos into iMovie - once rendered, photo turns black

I posted under another thread, but decided this might be better posted to the larger group.
I was working off of an external harddrive when the problem first manifested itself. Dragging a photo from the media pane into the time clip, I saw that the photo turned black and would not display after being rendered.
I moved the drive to another Mac, also an iMac G4 but with a faster processor, and a slightly different experience occurred. Upon starting up the project, when I clicked yes to view the trash, the photos I had been trying to use were no in the trast.
I put a few back and tried to apply the effects, but then the photo turned black. then I grabbed a photo from iPhoto again. The photo would show up but the Ken Burns effect would not stick. If it did stick, the photo turned black and wouldn't display. I saved and quit.
Took my external harddrive to my Powerbook. Had better luck grabbing photos from iPhoto, but no Ken Burns effects worked.
Now I'm back on my original iMac. This time I copied the project to the iMac's harddrive. Now there is another experience - a little closer to what I want but still not what I'm used to:
I added the photo to the timeline, it rendered itself to black again. Much frustrated sighing.
However, I had added some music to the timeline in the interim periods and just decided to view what I had. Lo and behold the black photo displayed with the Ken Burns effect. I added a couple more photos and they began to behave as they always have. You can see the photo in the time line. The black one is still black.
All this is quite unsettling. I plan on doing a project with 60 students in October and need to know if anyone thinks this is a bug or what? Thanks for any insight.

I am having the same problem images turning black when brought into the timeline Started when bringing in Photos from APERTURE 1.5. Thought this program was the problem so, I imported the same images into iPhoto. The problem does seem to "fix" when transitions are added , but this makes it difficult to edit and rearrange images. The hard drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (journaled). Shooting a Nikon D-70; D-200. Images a 2 - 5MG. Most confusing it is not consistent happens to some images and not others. Same problem happened when images were imported to iMovie.
ANY SUGGESTIONS MOST APPRECIATED, TRYING TO COMPLETE A BIG PROJECT THIS WEEK.
THANK YOU

Yellow tint back after 2.01 update

I just updated my 3G iPhone with firmware ver 2.01 and noticed that the yellow tint that many users experienced with the initial 2.0 firmware version, is back.

you didn't read my post at all.
You are not comparing the 5A37 firmware to 2.01, you are comparing the older iphone to the newer one, which has been designed with a warmer screen, so your assertation that the tint is "back" after 2.0.1 is flawed. In fact, the 3G screens do vary from phone to phone, so it is scientifically impossible to determine that 2.0.1 reverted the phone to a warmer color.

After I updated, pictures has gotten a yellow tint where it should be white.

after I updated, pictures has gotten a yellow tint where it should be white. I checked the same websites in safari, and those sites shows perfect color.
What can I do to fix this issue?
Being a photographer, this is quite a big problem

You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''

Screen image getting a yellow tint after being on ~2 hours.

My display is getting a yellow tint to it. It seems to come up after I've been using the display for a while. If I go into the display preferences and change the colour profile I can get it looking normal for a while by increasing the blue, but then it will slowly continue to get yellow.

I think a pram reset will help http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
By the way, dont regret not getting a powerbook, there displays are much more prone to problems. Not to mention the worse battery life and warping aluminum due to overheating etc.. Bah im so glad i got an iBook

What's Wrong? My iPad Lost it's Yellow Tint!

My new iPad never really had a yellow tint. The display, though, was obviously warmer in tone than my iPad 2, and the warmth was across the entire display, not just part of it.
Space around text was, in particular, whiter on the iPad 2, and the text seemed to be darker - more contrasty. I had to call my wife over to take a look and she confirmed what I was seeing, when the two iPads were side-by-side.
As others have noted, if the two iPads were not compared side-by-side, the new one looked fine. Put them together, and the difference was very apparent.
However, having read from several posters that it's an issue with glue, I decided not to panic. Last night, I spent a few hours with the new iPad on the Web, reading people's comments, and then browsing the topic of color - how we see, Edwin Land's ideas about color perception being based on context, etc. It made for interesting, if not hard-going reading.
Just before I went to bed, I did a last comparison check. I discoverd, to my amazement, that my new iPad's display had lost most of its warm tint over the past few hours. As far as I can tell, it's now totally gone. When I compare it to my iPad 2, the new iPad still looks warmer, but only in comparison.
Now the iPad 2 has a bluish cast to my eyes, especially when I'm looking at a page with black text and white space - the white is blue. With photos, the difference is down to a slight saturation gain with the new iPad. And the retina display increases sharpness just enough to make some photographs, along with their increased saturation, appear to be 3D.
I have a feeling this problem of tint/color will resolve itself for most people, one way or the other. For those who can relax for a few days, they might find, as I did, that the yellow will disappear. Or they might trade in their iPads, but there's no guarantee, if they get an iPad fresh off the boat, that it won't have the same problem, at least for a few days.

That's good to hear that the "Yellow tint" has sorted it self out.
Maybe the "Heat" issues that that people have with the batteries will sort it self out after a few discharge - recharge cycles.

Problems with dark colours importing photos in iMovie 11

Hello,
I have a problem importing photos from iPhoto Library 11 to iMovies 11 in order to build a video HD 1080p.
When iMovie creates the snapshot of the photo, happens that dark photo's colours (above all black) appears ginned with low resolution and, even after the rendering in 1080p, wathing the video via apple TV or in Blu ray disk, this unliky effect on black colour is rilevant
Thanks

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
Regards

Yellow tint! the 3rd Screen of my iMac 27, it's getting worse and worse...

Hi everyone not sure if there is anything more i could do with this, I have a 2010-13 week iMac, it came with a 'bearable' yellow tint problem from the beginning, after a hard drive failure i had to send my iMac back to Apple care, i was hoping the screen problem had been solved so I asked them to replace my screen as well, it came back with a worse panel showed much larger area of yellow tint...
Then I decided to wait for a few months until a week ago before my holiday i called for another exchange, was hoping for a perfect screen after my holiday, now holiday is over and iMac is back, just right after I pressed the power button, the start up screen with apple logo clearly tells me that i have got a even more disgusting panel - the worst of all i have to say, a new uneven shadow line on the bottom plus the usual yellower tint spreads over the middle of the screen, oh yes, they decided to make it even worse, a big dead spot as well in the corner ....
after a few hours, when i was editing a photo in Aperture, I have discovered something even more disturbing, from right edge of the screen inwards there is around 8cm wide vertical band shows obvious brighter tone than the rest of screen...
I do a lot of black & white photography plus a lot 3D graphic work, for a while I had tried to live with the yellow issue until it got really frustrating - now i have to once again arrange an exchange as this one is just unbearable!
Is this really Apple? Hard drive failed after a year and this is the 3rd screen of the iMac, and it just gets worse...
I wonder if there's anyone who had the luck to get the yellow screen replaced by a decent one?

Are you talking about a mid-2011 iMac or a 2010 iMac?
As it seems, the issue of color inconsistency of the iMac display is far from solved. Yellow tint, uneven brightness, light-leaks are very easily found even of newer models. I have a two-week-old mid-2011 27-inch iMac that I tried to replace for a new one because of yellow tint issue. It turned out that the replacement iMac had a worse screen... So I kept the first one. Not sure if the right thing to do is just get the screen replaced. It seems users have done it with no success...
So, I guess these problems are structural on the iMac line. They seem very much to be omnipresent. And I don't see Apple offering a genuine/trustworthy solution through its in-warranty support.
