Title: ColorSync Problem with Monitor
Calibration?
I'm new to this
list and I hoping you'll be able to help me solve a strange problem
we're experiencing as we try to manage color on a Sony 24" CRT
monitor on a G5 Dual machine. We are currently on OS 10.3.8, but the
problem has been around for several releases.
Initial monitor
calibration and profiling was accomplished using ProfileMaker 4.1.5
without incident. When it came time to recalibrate, however, the final
image on screen is too contrasty and the highlight detail is
posterized with no detail in the highlights (e.g., the subtle
background shading in the System Preferences panel is not visible). It
is almost like two profiles are fighting it out or a filter is
applied. The "factory" profile acts the same
way.
Subsequently, I calibrated and profiled a second user account and that
account looks fine (so the monitor and video card are ok). When I
selected the profile generated for the second account for the first
account, it still looks bad. I can even switch back and forth between
accounts and it's like night and day (both having the same settings in
the Displays control panel).
I could transfer all the user information from one account to the
other, but this would be a royal pain--and there's no guarantee that
the problem would not reemerge when its due for a recalibration.
I would really appreciate any assistance to solve this perplexing
problem.
