hy. this is not the problem - the colors look different - one picture (same jpg) in browser ff, browser safari, ps, preview - at the moment, on the same display.
well... i think this is not problem, which is decribed in this thread...

In a nutshell, including the sRGB profile is pointless unless the image is already in sRGB. Some browsers recognize the profile; some do not. Be safe and convert it to the profile. Optionally save the profile with the image in the SFW dialog.

...and the question about IE was a personal amusement that many on this forum are so concerned about color consistency - - yet they are not equipped to know what their work will look like on the most consistently used browser.

thaks for this link... i'll check this, hope to fine a solution for my problem.

think the pics look different on ie/win, too. and on the monitors (non tft/lcd)), and at night, or daylight,.... ohoho... wel, this is "ok", but to see the same jpp on one mbp at the same time with different colors is not nice ;-). takk

One other point:
Firefox is not Color Managed automatically — you have to set-it up that way for yourself by typing:

about:config
in the URL address bar [that is: about colon config]

and then go down the list to:

gfx.color_management.enabled

and set its value to = true

thanks for these infos conc activation the color management in ff.
but that not a solution for my problem, too. well, just here at my mac, but not for all the other user out there. i cant tell them "please, turn on ..." , then you will see warmer colors in my pic.

No Claus you can't!

That is the unfortunate part about showing images on the Web.

But if you take the trouble to Convert your images to sRGB and embed those profiles, at least the people who know enough to be concerned about Color (and have calibrated monitors and use Safari or Firefox with CM enabled); will see your images as you intended.

Printing to an OCE/Imagistics (cm4520) color copier:

If I print more than one copy from the Photoshop print dialog, I get nothing, that is to say it's not a freeze/crash -- rather nothing prints and clicking on the print icon that appears in the dock (after hitting print), says "filename: Data file sent successfully", the horizontal barber progress bar spins and the Status says Printing and it stays like that, no print.

If I print one copy only it prints just as it should, but then I have to go into the spooler, select the job and send the actual quantity I need. Not very productive. Printing from PS CS3 does not exhibit the same problems, printing works fine, also good from CS4: AI, Acrobat (save for the page setup bug in Tiger), and InDesign, just Photoshop is giving me a headache.

Any Ideas? TIA,

Geoff

PS CS4, Tiger, G4/933

Geoff,

This sounds like a printer driver issue. Do you have the latest driver software? Have you contacted OCE? Have you tried uninstalling/reinstalling the driver?

Yeah, I just checked their website and the Mac support is pretty much nil. I'll have to see if there's an actual person I can call.

Thanks,

Just today I was trying to figure how to do this. I hope the Photoshop magicians will add this feature in a future release.

One somewhat clunky way to do this, for those who don't trust their eyes, is to draw a rectangle on its own layer (equal in width to the spacing you want between objects) and fill it. Then add a rule snapped to the right edge of the first object. Drag the left edge of the box against the rule. Snap a new rule on the right edge of the box. Drag the left edge of your next object to that rule. Rinse and repeat. This is of course much easier with snap-to objects and guides turned on.

I have 2 images opened (Open Document as Tabs turned off) so they are independent of each other. when I zoom file#1, file#2 also zooms. How can I control this so only 1 file is zooming?
Thanks,
Al

Did you turn on the "zoom all windows" option in the zoom tool?
If so, turn it off.

I couldn't find my copy among my CDs so I guessed that I had a floppies version and all of those are stuffed in a box in the attic.

I think that any reference to the S/N being on the back of the disk must have refered to the Floppies version — S/Ns have never been provided directly on the CDs.

Shaz is not looking at a floppy disk when they refer to 'at the back of the CD'. The confusion is over the production batch number on the CD media, which is different than the user license serial number. These are different numbers. Unless the white serial number sticker was applied by the user to the CD, the CD will not have the program's serial number.

I tried to run a basic script through Image Processor (Never had this problem in CS3)
The script was very basic: Open all files in a selected folder (all recent PSD files) Save files as LZW tif in another selected folder. Run a single action: "Flatten Image"

Each time the entire process fails with the following Prompt: "Sorry, I could not process the following files" (all the files in the selected folder)
