I have many photos stored on my computer that have suddenly turned almost all red when I open them in Photoshop (NOT when I open them in Preview). As far as I can recall, I didn’t change any settings. Does anyone know what happened? I have a Mac G4 w/dual processor, OS X 10.2.8, Photoshop 7.0. Thanks.

Yes. Your monitor profile is corrupted. Photoshop is a color managed application; Preview is not, that’s why it’s not affected by your bad monitor profile.

It’s not often that I get to beat Buko by a fraction of a second. 🙂
