Subject: Automated setting of custom monitor profile in OSX10.9
Message-ID: <CF0BF2DB.11D7C%email@hidden>

Hi all,
For years I have been using the ColorSyncScripting addition in conjunction with an AppleScript to automatically set custom monitor profiles to our lab computers.
Since upgrading to OSX10.9, we cannot use the ColorSyncScripting addition, so I am looking for alternatives, and wondering what others are doing in this sort of scenario?
The computers have multiple users logging in, so a login script runs for each user to set the custom profile for that machine.
Alternatively, setting the custom colour profile as the default for all users would be a good approach, if this is do-able?
Ideas?
Thanks,
Hamish.

I use Hazel to do this (and much more):

I have hot folders that assign screen capture's the display profile, then Hazel converts to sRGB and places them in another folder.

This has long been my preferred approach for 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6. My
clients and I have skipped 10.7 and 10.8, but I'm hoping/assuming that it
also still works in 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9. I have quite a few 10.9
migrations planned in 2014.
The basic method is to set the preferred profile in admin or other test
user account. Then under root copy the whole ByHost folder from the user's
Library-->Preferences to the corresponding place in the default User
Template. Now guest, all network, and newly created accounts will pick up
the correct profile.

Now the situation is different.
ColorBase Utility can measure the testchart and put measurements into
some folder. After that you can use any ICC profiler to create the
custom profile for your media.
Moreover, now it's possible to load testchart printed on ANOTHER printer
into Spectroproofer+ColorBase. It's not very straightforward but it works.
