Monitor Calibration Again 1 Month ago  
Hi again

I've calibrated my display with a spyder2 pro using the admin account as it wouldn't let me do it in a normal (non admin) user account.

Consequently the monitor uses the profile I've created only for the admin account. I'm trying to find out where to store the profile so it is available to all users please?

Thanks!

I'll be able to contribute more to this community once I've sussed OSX - different operating systems. I'm pretty clued up about windows but that's entirely irrelevent, lol.

Hi there

When you calibrate your display as Admin, you save the calibrated set up with a particular name right - let's use 'Display Cal'

Go to your home folder/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Display Cal.icc

You want to put (just drag and drop baby yeah!!) that Display Cal.icc file into the Macintosh HD/Library/Colorsync/Profiles/Displays folder and it will then show up for all users.

BTW - you're right about Windows being irrelevant!

Aha! thank you. I was wondering why there are no profiles in that folder on my non admin account :0)
