In a way, that's good news, and as I expected. It was never a problem with 6500K specifically. It's a problem in the system. Can you do this for me?

Which step are you up to in the tutorial? Have you got the HHI?

Yes ... I don't understand where you're stuck? It looks like you're progressing perfectly.

It's true that the interface has changed somewhat, but all the functionality remains exactly the same. May I see a screenshot of what you're seeing?

Now PLEASE start posting some photos in the classes. Can't wait to rock your world with the skin class.

Hi Carly, in what way does it differ from the prints? Can you describe what you're seeing?

Yeah, no. Please let's talk about this in the Raw Class.

No, once that jpeg damage is done, it's done. You have to start again from the raw image. PLEASE read: https://www.damiensymonds.net/2010/02/trash-those-jpegs.html

Color blend mode affects everything. Hue blend mode only applies the colour to areas that already have colour, and leaves neutral areas alone.

Can you open them from inside Elements, though? I mean, using File>Open?

Looks excellent.

Oh! Lol, right. Also do the top edge of the baseboard.

Um, no, not the whole backdrop. Just those yellowed edge areas.

Great. Now, add a Solid Color layer of that desired blue, and set it to "Hue" blend mode. Mask it to just those areas.

Well, if your external screen was perfect, then yes, you'd want them to match Since it's not perfect, I held high hopes for the laptop one Let's go back to that 6500 error thing. I need you to do this.

If it works, it should be dead easy.

Ok, phew. Great. You say this like it's a bad thing?

Oh!!!!! I didn't know this! I should have looked at your sidebar, and I would have figured it out. Can you confirm you have the external screen set to "Extend" not "Duplicate" in the Display Control Panel?

Do you have any other computers in the house you could try calibrating? So we can rule out a faulty calibrator?

Gosh, I don't know, sorry. Does this thread help? http://www.retouchpro.com/forums/software/33084-here-fft-64-bit-photoshop.html

It's not completely infallible, but it's pretty amazing all the same. I use it a lot.

No, put that out of your mind. Always better to err slightly low. Leave it where it is.

And? Is 83 good? Got a good brightness match now? This is annoying, but shouldn't matter, because once the calibration begins, the whole screen is filled with colour, isn't it?
