Coty Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 I have the MacBook Air 13 inch with M1 chip and the SpyderX Pro. Which screen do I select? Wide LED or Standard?

Damien Symonds Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Hi @Coty, try Standard first. But I'm nervous about this on your behalf. There are lots of reports of Spyders not working with M1s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coty Posted July 31, 2022 Author Share Posted July 31, 2022 (edited) Thanks @Damien Symonds. I’ve actually already tried it, ordered prints, and it was off. I’ve matched the screen with print best I can but came across this link concerning calibration so thought I would give it one more try. I think it’s because this laptop does not have a USB port so the Spyder has to be plugged into the port converter is my guess. Thanks so much for your help.

So this has obviously been a problem for me over a period of time and I’m about ready to get rid of it and switch to something else. I have tried matching prints but it’s still off. I was just curious if you knew which is the best color profile to use on my MacBook Air M1 chip. Right now I’m using Color LCD but it’s adjusted to have a cooler white balance.

Hang on, it's got a USB-C port, doesn't it? Can't you just get an adapter? You'll need one for other reasons too, not just calibration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coty Posted January 11, 2023 Author Share Posted January 11, 2023 Yes I have a converter with several different ports but the Spyder doesn’t work properly with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
