On one of my G4 450 DP I can't get Colorsync to run. The control panel will
open, but I am unable to change any of the settings. I've tried starting up
with the OS9.1 basic extension set and it still doesn't work. Any Ideas?


Good name.

...and before you go any further: Is OS 9.1 the only OS or is there an OSX setup operating here as well?

For OS9 and OS9.1:

...go to Extensions Manager, check that you have only one Colorsync Control Panel active and one Colorsync extension active and the version numbers match up. Judisciously terminate previous version legacy files like Colorsync System Profile (2.6) etcetera. Check actual Control Panels and Extensions folders to make sure there are no orphans.

Then: go to Colorsync Profiles Folder>Display Profiles>and trash alias there. Immediately restart and rebuild desktop.

If that don' work, reinstall Colorsync (3.0.3).

Also: if you have a Colorsync Profiles Folder in your System Folder>Preferences
you should move those profiles into the System Folder>Colorsync Profiles folder and place an alias in the System Folder>Preferences>Colorsync Profiles Folder redirecting applications to the one System Folder>Colorsync Profiles folder.
(Be careful you do not Replace new profiles with old ones when you do this!)
This works fine with most applications with the exception of Corel Apps, which bomb the app if it runs into an alias there.

Keep in touch...let us know how it works out...
