    We study the impact of different cold nuclear matter effects both on J/ψ and ψ' production, among them the modification of the gluon distribution in bound nucleons, commonly known as gluon shadowing, and the survival probability for a bound state to escape the nucleus -the nuclear absorption. Less conventional effects such as saturation and fractional energy loss are also discussed. We pay a particular attention to the recent PHENIX preliminary data on ψ' production in dAu collisions at 200 GeV, which show a strong suppression for central collisions, 5 times larger than the one obtained for J/ψ production at the same energy. We conclude that none of the abovementioned mechanisms can explain this experimental result.
