Kimberly C. Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 I have followed your steps over and over for calibrating my new imac with spyder4. My screens brightness is good, but it pulls more on the magenta side. I am at aloss of how to trouble shoot this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 When people talk of "magenta vs yellow" it makes me suspect they're myopically looking at skintones only. Can you promise me you're looking at ENTIRE photos when you're telling me that the print is yellow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberly C. Posted February 29, 2016 Author Share Posted February 29, 2016 Yes that is correct. It is the entire photo. and I have compared several test prints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Great. Have you tried varying this setting with each calibration? http://www.damiensymonds.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/38.-s5p34.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberly C. Posted February 29, 2016 Author Share Posted February 29, 2016 Yes I tried all 3 settings but the do not adjust one. It seemed as though I need to be up around 7000K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Wait, what? The Do Not Adjust one should have been the very first one you used, wasn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberly C. Posted February 29, 2016 Author Share Posted February 29, 2016 oh gosh now I can't recall. I tried it for hours. I just checked. Mine has 5000K 5800K 6500k recommended and Native. I don't recall trying the native one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Look, it probably won't make any difference, but since you're in desperate straits, you'd better try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
