Tangerine iBook 300MHz... factory profile cannot be found
Hmm. Maybe you can reset it to the factory profile using ColorSync
Utility.
Launch ColorSync Utility and go to Devices. Under Displays, there
will be an entry called something like "Color LCD", that's your
iBook's display. Select that. It'll show the name and path to the
factory profile, and the name and path to the current profile. Maybe
your factory profile is in the trash, or somewhere else unexpected?
Its usually in something like
/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Displays/Color LCD-4279340.icc. Click the
triangle next to Current Profile, and select "Set to Factory". Maybe
that'll fix it.
I played around with ColorSync utility on my Power Mac and I see what
you mean by the "Set to Factory" button. On the iBook when I select the
profile, the pane is completely blank under the "Make Default Display"
button. I'm beginning to think ColorSync is really broken here.
I also downloaded a utility called SuperCal from Version Tracker. It
let me calibrate and generate a profile. Still didn't look completely
right, but a little better.
Now when I go to System Preferences and click Displays, under Color the
profile I created shows up in the list but again I cannot select it.
When I click I get a system error sound.
I give up, I admit defeat. Probably going back to build 7A202 on this
thing or maybe even Jaguar. Are there any reports from other users with
fruit iBooks and Panther that have a similar issue?
