Hi and thanks in advance.

I am very new to photoshop and am learning on a mac at work and PC at home. I've got CS2 at home on the PC. When I open photoshop or any document, the black and white are black and a dark cream color on my monitor. There is no white at all in the color areas and white seems to show as this cream color everywhere - affecting how I view images. However, when I print the white is white. Have tried changing around color settings but no luck.

I'd love some help - it's driving me nuts!

This seems to be a common problems with CS2, I have heard of lots of people having it, check out adobes site for some pages of help. Try the new preferences setp below that often helps. Wayne


Re-create the Photoshop preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause.


To re-create the Photoshop preferences file:

1. Quit Photoshop.

2. Rename the Adobe Photoshop CS2 Prefs.psp file (for example, to Adobe Photoshop CS2 Prefs.old) in the Documents and Settings\ [username] \Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop\9.0\Adobe Photoshop CS2 Settings folder.

3. Start Photoshop. Photoshop creates a new preferences file.



If the problem continues, the preferences file isn't the cause. To restore custom settings, delete the new preferences file and restore the original name of the previous preferences file.
