Color Problem ...all of a sudden
Hello all,
I am new to this user to user forum but I am sure that it will be very helpful to my problem. I have a case with Phase One concerning my issue as well but would love to have some additional help from fellow photographers!
I shoot a Nikon D200 and I am running Capture One Pro on a MacBook Pro OS X 10.4.6.
My problem: I have been successfully using C1Pro for a few months now and have had wonderful results... until my local lab was having problems with my output. We found that they needed sRGB for proper printing. This makes sense so I switched the RGB Output in Image>Proof Profile>sRGB. I think this is how my problem came to be..... All of the images that I pull in to process now have a weird warm yet kind of gray (muddy) color cast to them. Even the same images (that are in a folder on C1Pro) that I have already processed now have this color cast. However when I pull them into iView Media Pro they look as they did when I first processed them. Grrrrrrrrrr
I had a few different ideas of what to try but nothing seems to be giving me results. HELP!!! What do you all think made this huge, ugly difference and how do I get my good color back???
Thank you for any help,
Melissa

Melissa just a guess but hae you chaned the profile back to RGB ?? and Is there a toggle for previews ?
I had this in Photoshop once and I seem to remember I left the print preview on one profile and the process area on another.
I do not know C1 but it sounds like the display is picking up one profile and C1 another.
iView preview is only the thumbnails it recorded at time of import. Take a small batch of fles into iview and see how they look as a test.
Perhaps this has given you a few more ideas. Let us know how you got on0 -
Dear Blakey and any other caring souls,
Thank you for your reply, I need all the help I can get!
I have changed the profile back to Adobe RGB (should I be doing this in Image>Proof Profile>sRGB?... or Image>Proof Profile>Selected Destination and then change the profile in the Process tool??? I have tried both) but the problem with that is I see no instant results. The screen displays the same color cast with either profile.
I would have to agree that it seems like the display and C1 have different profiles. I just don't know how to fix it.
I did what you suggested with pulling a small batch into iView... They still look vastly different. The ones that I tried I had in a folder on C1 and had previously corrected and processed, I re-processed (did not make any new corrections) and pulled them into iView. Like I said they look good in iView and horrible in C1.
Something that I think is strange as well is that these images that I have in the folder will change when I click on the thumbnails. The thumbnail looks like it once did.....then click...and the new muddy problem comes!
Well that is all for now, please let me know if anyone has any more ideas. Thank you so much,

Melissa,
Try running the applescript on this web page (scroll down to the Cause 2 bit):
It is possible that capture one is using the wrong display profile because of a system preference problem. The script tells you what display profiles are actually being used. If the script reports the correct profiles for your display, then don't bother deleting the system preference file, as your problem lies elsewhere
Hope it helps,
Jason0
