M1 Pro COLOR ISSUE on Ventura Beta for MacOs

 

I've been updating hoping someone else already caught this major bug. So far, no luck. What is happening is I am using MacOs Ventura Public Beta. In case you are working on bug fixes for the soon-to-be-released Ventura, this is a big one concerning COLOR.

 

In the Preferences, under Performance / Camera Raw if I have Use Graphics Processor set to 'on' ... all raw images get desaturated by 10-15% (most noticeable in skin tones, but also in other colors).  The only setting that lets me see my images with the proper saturation is 'Off'. I never had this issue in the previous MacOS. I realize it is a Beta but is this something you are working on?  Please let me know because if it's going to be a while, I will have to downgrade my OS because I want to use my Graphic Processor.

    The latest dev beta, out today, has the same bug. I really hope that someone at Adobe will talk with Apple because it's impossible to work this way.

    This is a user-to-user support forum for issues relating to Adobe products that are released (or open Adobe betas) running on released Operating Systems. This has nothing to do with Apple's bugs in their OS betas or communications with Apple and Adobe that go well beyond the pay grade of the volunteers hoping to assist Adobe users. 

    IF it is impossible for you to work with a released Adobe product with a beta OS, don't use a beta OS. That's the answer! You have decided to work with an unsupported OS; no one here can fix or help you with that. End of story.

    Finally, I have searched google for days and this is the first report I've seen where someone has the exact same bug as me! It's 100% an Apple problem so fingers crossed it gets fixed in the final build..

      Same issue. Don't know if it's LrC or Ventura, but definitely there's an issue, and it's a very bad one. Hope that someone at Adobe is in contact with Apple to check what's going on!

      I have not seen any announcement from Adobe about support for the new macOS expected to be released in shortly. This is a user-to-user forum so the responses you receive here would mainly be from other users.

        Beta versions of operating systems are only for developers and not for general use.
        Most manufacturers provide support for their software only after it has been officially released.

          CameraLenz mentioned using the Public Beta. The Public Beta, which is now traditionally released some time after the original developer release, is free to be used by the public to validate a much wider range of general use workflows than developers can cover. (This is the same reason Adobe has started a Public Beta program for applications such as Photoshop.)

           

          @CameraLenz, there are two avenues for you to report a bug involving Adobe software with non-Adobe prerelease software. One might be the Bugs section of this community, where reproducible bugs can be tracked and discussed, and Adobe personnel are more likely to respond directly than in this user-to-user general help forum.

           

          But also, Apple instructs participants in their public beta program that:

           

          When you experience an issue or something does not work as expected, send your feedback directly to Apple with Feedback Assistant.

           

          Feedback Assistant is installed as part of Apple beta software. If it works like the macOS Crash Reporter does, any problems you report regarding third-party applications may be forwarded by Apple to the developer, so if you used Feedback Assistant to report a color problem with Lightroom Classic in Ventura, Apple might both look into that on their end (since it doesn’t happen in Monterey, right?) and also forward it to Adobe.

          Why are you inquiring about this from Adobe? Go and talk to Apple.

            We can't help you with an OS beta whereby its color management or GPU behavior may be broken. On Mac's, GPU drivers are updated/part of the OS. What's broken is on Apple's side at this point. Roll back to the current OS; bug is gone right? 

            Further, any development on ACR/LR (beta) that may or may not address such issues is still under NDA; no one here can comment.
