Thank you!

So when I use it to recalibrate, do I just do it over the top of what I have done with the Express?

It must have been, I bought it used on line some years ago for $100.   But my question about un installing is probably moot, since I remembered that not too long ago I had my PC restored to its factory settings so the calibrator was not even in my list of programs.  

I went forward and downloaded and re calibrated and what I am seeing on my screen is very closely matching the prints that I was using....as in more magenta than I want.  I will be busy redoing that gallery now. 

And guess what!  I now have an email from Spyder saying that I can upgrade to Spyder Pro for $60.00.  I shouldn't do it but I am weak.  If I do that, it leads me back to my original question.  Do I have to delete uninstall x2 from my programs folder?

I loaned my Spyder3, which worked perfectly on both PC and laptop, to a family member who lost it.

So I ordered a Sypyder5Express. Since loading that my printed skin colors (from 2 labs) have magenta  that my screen does not (from both screens).  Reading here I saw something about uninstalling previous calibrations in two places on my computer before attempting re calibrating.  I cant' find the page where you talked about that.  I'm guessing that is something I should be doing?

 I did find restore my monitor to factory settings but my screen looks the same other than my screen is a bit brighter. 

There is a FB group:  In Person Sales for Professional Photographers.  Tons of Info there.  They need to see a professional photography page for you to accept you. 

Finally went full frame with my fourth camera and love it of course.  But lately I hauled out my OLD D40 thinking I would slap on that lightweight 35 1.8 DX lens and have something to carry around  to use like a point and shoot.  Forgot that the older lenses don't have the feature to calibrate the lens and it front focuses terribly.     

Is there anything I can do?

Lara:  THANK YOU!  i cant wait to give it a try!

Who remembers that from his other website.  Can someone tell me an easy way to do that or direct me to a tut?  I can't even figure out what to call to google it, other than double exposure and and didn't find me what I wanted. 

I did notice it a long the way when I saw a lot of red when I checked for clipping in the levels panel, but I couldn't figure out how to fix it.  Lowering the exposure enough made it all too dark.   Back to the PSD then

  Thas what I was afraid of.......It says sRGB  8bcp 

Can you see it?  Is that banding, some kind of red hot spots around her cheeks?  This is 100% crop.  I worry because I just found out that she is planning to print the 24x20 on metal.
