Re: preview/photoshop

I'm all ears. I would very much like to know what I could have done in System preferences to fix this.

I'd like to give you a specific answer but without being there and seeing what you're doing and what occurs on the display, I'm left with trying to give general advice.

Make sure your display profile is in order. This is a large can of worms given third party calibration apps that many on the list use, and there are problems with some of them not setting the display profile correctly. So the quickest route to a known state is to open System Preferences, Displays, Color, and look for a profile that has the same name as your display...that's the one created by the system called the "factory profile". Select that profile in the list.

You can instead use ColorSync Utility to set your display to the factory profile. If you have more than one display, make sure you know which one is the default display, that's the one whose profile is used in color matching to the screen. You can set which display is default in ColorSync Utility.

Other than that, just take the normal measures of making sure you know which profile is embedded in your images, and how the profile is used at each step of your workflow. At each step are you matching or not, and from what space to what space.
