Tried all my usb ports. Not on another computer but  my usb ports are working for everything else

Thank you - Yes it is plugged in but it is not lighting up which i guess it means it is not working. I hear a noise when i plug in, is it something that can break? So strange.

If i need to purchase a new one, what is recommended now? Or how about a Benq monitor?

Thanks again.

Thank you - I did that. It is only showing a demo version and it is very different from the last version like in your tutorial.

Any advice of this?

Thank you

Hi

I have not calibrated for a while now and my xrite is not connecting and coming up with the following message as seen on the attachment.

Am i supposed to update? Please can you advise.

Thank you very much

Ok budget is not a concern this time. I need a working fast computer. I literally have to wait a minute between cropping and saving each image! It's absolutely absurd these days. Pity that it's more expensive now due to covid! Thanks for making me aware of that!

Thank you for all the specs. 

Really appreciate all this. 

Wow that's amazing. Thank you so much for this information! Really appreciate it. 

I will speak to my technician tomorrow again! 

So glad I asked 

Wow just read through. Hoping hoping this will do the trick. I will try it tomorrow as I have switched off now. 

Should I keep this screen with the new custom built computer I am getting? I want bigger but I'm happy to spend slowly... 

Often when I shut down and switch  on I have to re calibrate. I don't think it will change whilst I am currently on it but if I go away and come back it can change. It is so frustrating. 
When the screen so good, I only trust the colours when viewing in Photoshop - that might be normal?! 

The lighting situation in the room is always the same. 

Yes - i have done it many times, i think i always do it correctly. It does help bu i have to keep re-doing either due to color change or brightness change. Very often.

Sure.

I have attached it. Thank you so much

on my device it says x-rite i1 Display

i1 profiler

Where else can i find details of it?

Sorry

The i1

I have the x-rite i-profiler

and a dell 24 inch screen.

Hi

I am looking into having a customized PC according to my editing needs.

What monitor would you recommend for editing. I have heard that the Benq and Eizo are good, but are they necessary? Getting colour accuracy literally causes me burn out from my job. I would love something that will help me with that. I do have the x-rite calibrator but still do not find it perfect and constantly having to re-calibrate.

I have attached the specs that my technician has recommended me to get. I am aware that the graphics card has to be compatible with the monitor i get...

Thank you

Thank you very much

no im in fixed lighting when editing.

Ok so i will unplug. 

so how often do u recommend to re calibrate and should i do the long way round or the quick way?

Even if it gives me this option? it says best is to keep it plugged in and it monitors it every 10 mins. it used to work!

Hi

I have calibrated and i keep my calibrator plugged in all the time. Is there supposed to be a light flashing on the device whilst it is plugged in? what could be the problem if no light is flashing? It makes a noise when i plug it in which i think means the usb port is working.

Thanks

I’m so confused! 

I did originally - printed pics n compared n they looked fine. Now when editing some new ones something is weird. 

Now im thinking maybe it’s my camera or the room iL taking pics in that they’re coming out weird. Haven’t printed any new pics yet! 

I am going to do that tomo n see from them n get back to u!!! 

I’ve not been comparing now - I’ve just started editing again since I set my computer up in my new place and this was bothering me terribly. 

I wonder if I need to lower the greens ? When I calibrated I got all the green lines with a tick , but should I now go to the custom rgb n lower the greens? 

I think only skin tones. i don't see it anywhere else?!?

Yes just the skin tones - the colours of clothing all match well otherwise.

I feel like the skin tones are being exaggerated on screen - I've never had this. 

Hi 

I have finally changed all my light bulbs to the correct ones and now calibrated my screen. 

On screen I am seeing the hotspot/pink, and then green/yellow around. (Hope I'm describing well). When I send the image to my phone I don't see it like that - it looks smooth. 

I have attached a pic of screen so u can see what  I'm seeing and then the actuall image saved onto my phone. 

Please can u advise - I can not continue editing like this because it makes me think the face is green when it's not. 

OK great gona change to cool white N recalibrate. Will update u! 

Thanks 

OK so these florescent lights I have 2 up on one end and they are 58 watt each and cool light. 

And  gona change the candle bulbs to cool light. 

And for now put my desk near those bulbs, is that enough or do u suggest I still change to the batons? 

Thanks - were getting there
