Christina Keddie Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Which X-Rite calibrator are you using? Find it on this list and follow these instructions: http://www.damiensymonds.net/calibration.html
Damien Symonds Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 Great. Go ahead and follow the instructions.
Cleyvosier Posted March 30, 2016 Author Posted March 30, 2016 which instructions? i have it hooked up to a dell s2340m monitor how would i calibrate that and the imac
Christina Keddie Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 Follow the desktop instructions when you calibrate the Dell, and the Macs and laptops instructions when you calibrate the iMac. 1
Damien Symonds Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Let's continue our discussion here. Email is so clumsy. What screen are you editing on at the moment?
Cleyvosier Posted March 26, 2017 Author Posted March 26, 2017 I have a MacBook Pro 2014 retina 13 inch
Damien Symonds Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 And have you successfully calibrated both? I mean, do they both match your pro lab prints?
Damien Symonds Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Please, @Cleyvosier? I'm trying to figure out why you're considering buying another (used) screen. Is it because you can't get either of your current screens to calibrate accurately?
Cleyvosier Posted March 29, 2017 Author Posted March 29, 2017 I sold my imac was gonna use my MacBook Pro to edit photos
Damien Symonds Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Yes ... and you have a Dell screen. I'm with you so far. I want to know if they have calibrated accurately.
Cleyvosier Posted March 29, 2017 Author Posted March 29, 2017 I have test prints from my lab to compare to the mbp haven't hooked up external monitor it's not hdmi
Damien Symonds Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Ok, so you can't use the Dell after all? Is that why you're thinking of buying another screen?
Cleyvosier Posted March 31, 2017 Author Posted March 31, 2017 I have test prints from my lab to compare to the mbp haven't hooked up external monitor it's not hdmi plus I just recently found out my mbp had an Adobe rgb profile setting should I calibrate in that profile will that be edifying in Adobe rgb that way no new monitor

That is a false setting, it's not real.

Damien Symonds Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 2 hours ago, Cleyvosier said: I have test prints from my lab to compare to the mbp Yes, I know, you already told me that. I want to know HOW they compare? Does the MacBook screen match the prints?
Damien Symonds Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 That's easy to fix. Follow the troubleshooting section of the instructions.
Damien Symonds Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 What the heck, @Cleyvosier???? You're posting on POTN now? I'm trying and trying and TRYING to help you here. I assume you're calibrating the Dell now? Here are the instructions to use: https://www.damiensymonds.net/cal_CMD_pc.html
