Whenver I start something new, even when I choose the background to be white, it still shows up like a yellow color. Anyone know how to fix this?

Run Adobe Gamma or other monitor calibration. Look in Help for information about calibrating your monitor.

Christopher,
How do you define background color – in the "New Document" dialog or by choosing "Background" color in the Toolbox?

Funny, a friend came to me to ask the same question this morning, and I’m a little stumped too.

He said he’s installing an older version (5.5?) of Photoshop on a PC running XP. The whites in the document (not the menus) look yellow, which seems like it would rule out hardware issues. When he checks the color, it says it’s a RGB 255/255/255 white. When printed, it prints in yellow. Other software displays white correctly.

Maybe a color setting or proof setting is incorrect? Any ideas?
