John,
Very interesting. According to this test my system profile is that of
neither display, rather it is "Generic RGB Profile". How do you change
it?

Thanks John,
I'm running an Alu 20" Cinema off my 15" Powerbook (FW800) with
10.3.7. Both displays are profiled with Monaco Optix XR Pro and I am
using a LUT table based profile for the Cinema and a matrix profile
for the PB.
Ah. Actually I should amend my statement that Preview always matches
to the profile of the default display, it's more accurate to say it
matches to the system profile which is equivalent to the profile of
the
default display unless an application specifically sets the system
profile to something else. Long sentence. Ordinarily the system
profile should be the same as the profile of the default display, so
that setting a new profile for the default display automatically
updates the system profile setting to point to the new display
profile.
Unfortunately some calibration apps may be setting the system
profile
directly which causes the system profile and display profile to become
unlinked. Based on what you just said I think that's what you're
seeing. There isn't a way to set or even determine the system profile
directly in the user interface anymore. What you want to do is find
out what your system profile is set to, and compare that to the
profile
of the default display, to see if they're the same. If they're not
the
same, then this is the problem. So how do you determine the system
profile if there's no UI? With Applescript. Launch Script Editor
(Applications/Applescript/Script Editor) and paste this into it:
tell application "ColorSyncScripting"
get system profile
end tell
and hit the green Run button. You'll see the result in the Result
section in the bottom part of the window, it'll be something like
profile "Color LCD" of application "ColorSyncScripting"
