Photoshop :: CS5 - Color Difference Between CS5.5 And Other Programs?
Mar 4, 2013
I'm running CS5.5 student edition on a brand new Asus Q500A laptop running Windows 8. i7 processor and a UMA graphics card. I do not have calibration software; I'm using Calibrize for the moment and colors appear fairly true when browsing after calibration.
My problem is that overall colors in Photoshop appear more saturated than those in regular browser windows, particularly reds. I set up my computer to run the Win8 photos app and my desktop with Photoshop simultaneously and the color difference was immediately noticeable. I did a quick screen grab to show the difference; the inset photo is the one viewed in Win8's photos app, and the background is the exact same photo open in Photoshop.
This is the second install of this program. I originally installed it on a Dell Inspiron with a DuoCore processor (way out of spec, I know - that's why I upgraded!) and I seem to remember having this issue then, too. I found a way to correct it, but I don't remember how I fixed it and Photoshop is no longer on that machine so I can't look over my settings.
hi. why is there a significant difference in color temp from working in raw/pscs and viewing the finished pictures in ex. windows diasshow. The temp. seems to be much warmer in windows. The raw converting im doing makes me unsure when viewing afterwards in windows.wich one can i rely on when going to my local printingshop.
I can't get it into my head the difference between Absolute color and relative color. I've been told many times, but I still can't remember. Would anyone know the difference, and any further reading?
I'm having issues with parts that were drawn in 2012 being a different color in 2013. It's the same color just a noticeably different shade. Not all parts have this color difference.
It only does this on certain parts so I when I have a bunch of the same parts mated together in an assembly it renders out with different shades and looks goofy.
See pic attached - All piping is Dark Grey in color - The verticals right below the top valves are a different shade - When I check both colors in the part files they are listed as Dark Grey.
Im running CS2 with Windows Vista, the same photograph look completely different in Photoshop than in the Bridge or any other applications. My Working Spaces is set to:
At the core of it all: "images from PSD exported as a .png, or a .jpg (commonly for me) do not show the same...contrast or fidelity my photoshop-canvas shows me..
I have been working on some stuff, and quite some time ago, I noticed that a certain piece of mine was not showing the subtle, noise-fog that I had added in PSD.Now, on-canvas everything seemed fine and I thought: "Okay, This is what I want." However, when I saved the image (as a .jpg and later as a .png as well), the fog was absent from the image, showing simply a "black" background. Sometime later I found that, when I zoomed in, the noise was actually present, it was just VERY unclear. You could only notice it, just barely, whilst zoomed in.
Now we come to present-time. I'm working on a little concept. It's in manga cell-shaded style, so the differences in color are easy to see (as shadows, for example, are not gradual. There's a clear line that separates the normal lighting from shadows)
Now, this 'character' has a black pair of pants (specific RGB- #100d11) and the color of the shadow is #060506..The thing is: in photoshop, I can clearly see the difference and it looks the way I want to have it. But when I saved the image to jpg (and to png) you can barely, if at all, see the difference. Someone who does not know there are two different colors, would not see it, and just see pure black. You can see the difference if you zoom-in, but even then it's not as 'stark' as it is on-canvas.
- Is this common / normal?- If yes, is there something to fix this, so that what I see on-screen is what I get when I export the file?
I have the standard dell color profile set in windows for the monitor.
Whenever I save "for web and devices" I get a color difference between the actual webpage colour and the colours in the picture. So I searched about color profiles and I gather (I find this profiling thing very confusing) that I should set my photoshop profile also to the dell profile. So I did, but there now still is a slight difference.
For example, the color I use in photoshop is #12141A and once saved it shows up as #13151B
I am a web designer and have a problem with my Photoshop CS6. I work on both a mac and a pc (Win7), but use CS6 on both systems. My files are always worked with on both systems.
With several psd's, I noticed a color difference when I dragged layers to new psd's. Even the RGB values changed. When dragged back to the original psd, the colors change back again. This is not a constant problem. I have checked the color settings of both files and see no difference. If I place the color specified in the failing psd in a HTML-file, the color does not resemble the failing psd. In HTML, the color resembles the new psd. I think there is something wrong with some of my psd's, but cannot figure out what it could be and how to fix and prevent it.
I have a feeling it may be caused by changing between mac and pc, but surely this could not be the cause? I am, at the moment, unable to try this out myself, but will try this out later this week.
I'm using version 5.5 in Windows 2000. I am confused because all other images in other programs etc appear normal whereas in photoshop 5.5 they have a greenish tinge. I corrected this on the original image by choosing View > Preview > Uncompensated RGB. However, if I try colour adjustment etc e.g. variations, all the preview images still have the green tinge. Does anyone know how to correct this?
Also Uncompensated RGB is supposed to be the default view, but when I close PS the setting is lost and on opening, all images including the original are back to green. What am I missing? I have other versions 5.5 and CS on other pcs with no problems.
I made an image using CMYK (for printing later on), and the color is fine when I try to print it onto printing paper by just selecting the Print button on PS. However, when I saved the image as a .JPEG, the color changes drastically.
When I edit an image in Lightroom and then continue editing it in photoshop I see a major color difference.That also happens when I export an image from lightroom as a .jpg and then upload it to the web,colors look the same as in photoshop.Color space is set to sRGB in both PS and my monitor. [URL]
I get a slight difference in color in my prints my when I use LR prifile vs Canon printer managed. The Canon is much truer to what I see on both monitors which, btw, are calibrated. LR throws in a slight magenta cast. Is there a way to correct this?
Document colors in Corel Draw X3 have changed. Example: dark green is now black on my designed object; Teal is now light green.
I thought it might be color management had switched somehow but all management settings do not make a change as they did before or at all. Basically I think the problem lies in the color management. I re-installed the program but the problem remains. Color management does not affect color appearances as they used too before.I run windows 7 and have had it for a couple of years with no problems.
download elements 11, but it's not supported. I don't want lightroom...I'm not really sure what my options are- I'm looking for something as recent to elements 11 as i can...
My CS5 shows a less red hue than when I uploaded the jpeg to deviant art. When I set the image to my window's wall paper it also appears more red than is shown in photoshop window. Here's a screen cap of the photoshop window and deviant art upload: URL....
I have PS 6 and LR 4 installed on my desktop. Both have been upgraded several times from prior versions.I have a new Mac laptop. How can I download both programs to my Mac? i have both serial numbers.
Assuming Image Ready would be number one on your list of preferences for animation what else would you all suggest as other programs? Being a beginner I'm interested in animation mainly for making avatars and signature banners to use on my computer forums. Taking in consideration my newbie status and the use I mentioned,
I work for a company that is willing to license Photoshop for a month when big projects come up - but they do not want to purchase a yearly subscription or purchase the whole program. I am creating business cover pages in photoshop - all the images, layout, etc will stay the same. But the text will need to change for each proposal. Is there an easy way to save the image as a PDF & then use another program to change the wording down the line?
I have been having trouble with CS3 programs not loading properly so I went to reinstall in and it will not let me reinstall says that there are component failures.
I had desktop icon and shortcut error messages so I reinstalled photoshop cs3 and not all of the programs associated with photoshop have reappeared. I then deactivated photoshop, uninstalled it, went to photoshop folders and manually deleted as much as I could find, reinstalled it and again the same thing.
I am wondering if my Adobe programs, such as PS, Elements & Lightroom will properly migrate to my new computer using Time Machine?Or will I need to find the original installation disks (recently moved & can't find the PS one, and LR & Elements I loaded online)?
I've bought the Adobe Web Premium CS4 package a while back (when they just released CS5) and I'm having huge issues now. Basically all my Adobe applications freeze up directly or do so when using them so I'm unable to get any work done.
It used to be sporadically but recently it started happening more often up to the point that I can't start Photoshop, Dreamweaver or Illustrator without it freezing up the after the program is launched, when opening a document or working on an existing document. I've just shot a bunch of photo's at a fundraiser and want to edit the RAW images but both Photoshop and Bridge freeze up when I try to open the photo's.
I'm on a 2010 iMac running OSX 10.7.5 with a 3.2GHz Intel Core i3 and 12GB memory. I realize CS4 on OSX is 32bits but problems with insufficient RAM shouldn't be a problem, I usually have 4-6GB RAM unused.
I just bought 2 software licenses (for Illustrator CS6 and Photoshop CS6), but I can't find on adobe website where to download Illustrator CS6 and Photoshop CS6, I just find CC versions, but my serial numbers don't work for CC versions.
I'm having a bit of trouble with Photoshop. Colors are displayed differently, than in other programs (Paint, Firefox etc...), which makes it impossible for me to design anything. I tried restoring my settings by holding Ctrl + Alt + Shift on start up and it's still the same. I also tried re-installing Photoshop.
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.
