Scanner profiles invalid in Photoshop

Have Adobe decided that ICC scanner profiles are invalid? They worked fine last week in both 2024 and the Beta, now when I assign any scanner profile in either version of PS (and on different computers) the following warning appears: "Could not complete the Assign Profile command because the ICC profile is invalid.” The profiles won’t preview when you use the Assign menu either. — Martin Orpen Idea Digital Imaging

i1Profiler 3.8.0 released

XRIte quietly released i1Profiler 3.8.0 yesterday. You can find it at: https://www.xrite.com/service-support/downloads/i/i1profiler-i1publish_v3_8… For those that remember ProfileMakerPro’s Color Picker, you’ll be excited about the Color Picker beta. Select a Pantone color or Lab value and calculate that color within an output profile to 2 digits past the decimal. The Lighting Compare beta lets you take ambient light measurements, save them and compare them. And, omg, hell finally froze over… the new Gamut Viewer is available right from the home screen, yesss!

Yes, file a (proper) bug report to Adobe. Links to do so were provided. I think some people enjoy complaining almost as much as they enjoy doing nothing about it.

IE: Is more than your one Imacon profile working? What software are your scanner profiles made with? Do you have a variety of profiles made from different software and are they all working? And are you on MacOS PS 25.2.0? > > Martin, it could be good troubleshooting to send Andrew a profile that?s not working on your system and see if it's working on his. Hi Scott Yes, I?ll send Andrew a small scanner profile via email. My testing shows that the versions of Photoshop 2024 and the Beta release that were updated in the last few days are unable to preview or assign scanner profiles that use Lab PCS. Versions prior to this work as expected. I noticed this because I was able to assign profiles to images on a scanning job that I was working on on December 1st. When I tried to pick up where I left off on the same job this morning it was impossible to assign the profiles that were been used without a problem less than a week ago. I tried another Mac which has the same version of PS and it won?t work either. Like yours, my scanner profiles have been built in i1Profiler ? so this could be vendor specific, but I think that it is more likely something to do with the Lab PCS. Cheers ?
