Colors in all adobe aps appearling like cymk

STaN

HI,

I've a few different adobe applications however when i open them they all appear to be using cymk coloring schemes, even when i view the color pallet, they all look a bit off. i'm used to RGB is there a way i can change this setting?

Even if i set the color proof to monitor RGB the color picker still looks like cymk.

And in adobe acrobat, pdfs appear cymk but look fine viewed on other PCs.

Thanks in advance.

Could you post a picture please(A screencap or something?)
Sounds a bit rare...but it's probably something really stupid thats easy to fix

Metacortex

Maybe you have the mode set to CYMK.

Go to Image > Mode > RGB
That will change photohop anyway, m not overly familiar with other adobe applications

I'll post a screen cap when i get home. It is weird all right.

Even in illustrator for example all the tool icons appear off (like cymk)

If it doesn't cap will, will take a photo with my cam.

I know that i can set the proof colors to Monitor RGB and then the image appears OK but the color picker still looks off.

if the icons appear off then it's a monitor problem?

looks like your colour mode is set too lower, set it to 24 bit
