Re: CMYK ICC 4.2 profiles on OSX 10.9
Thank You Péter, it sounds so strange but copying in System Library or User Library / ColorSync / Profiles doens't works, but in Reccomended it works fine. Seems to be a OSX 10.9 bug, because a v2 profiles works fine in all positions inside every "Profile" directory, irrespective of file permission. --- Alessandro Beltrami perito industriale info@alessandrobeltrami.net On 10 Apr 2014, at 21:00, colorsync-users-request@lists.apple.com wrote:

Hi Alessandro,
there is no problem with that profile at all. Please make sure that you placed it to the correct folder. I took it to Hard-Disk-Name/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Color/Profiles/Recommended folder and it works OK (using Photoshop CS3 or CS6).

Dear users, I have a problem using a v4.2 ICC profile on OSX 10.9, the ICC seems well formed (thank you Phil for checking it); the profile runs well with Adobe Photoshop CS5/CC in Windows 7/8.1 and OSX 10.6, too.
You can see the profile in ColorSync Utility --> Profiles list, you can open it and see all items, but you cannot use it in Colorsync Utility --> Calculator nor in Adobe Photoshop CS5/CC because it's not in the list of valid CMYK profiles. Someone notice the same problem?
Here the ICC profile: https://www.dropbox.com/s/z7h6t4i4x2vm3qn/FOGRA39-Beltrami-prbOSX.icc

ColorThink Pro reports: These profiles do not have the correct Mac Finder tags. Without these tags, profiles are invisible to ColorSync in Classic and will not show up in Classic ColorSync or application menus.
But it can't fix it such it shows on 10.9 within Photoshop on this end.
What if you rebuild it as a V2 profile? Is the profile building application you're using even support the PRMG?

Yeah, and those tags are really only relevant to a bygone era. That check is to be removed in the next major release of ColorThink.
I’ll take a look at the profile and see if I can see anything missing or odd…

"Repairing permissions" seems to be dubious Mac voodoo.

See <http://daringfireball.net/2006/04/repair_permissions_voodoo> Graeme Gill.
Hi We run Macs with multiple user accounts (15-20). They regularly grind to a near halt. Repairing permissions seems to speed them up again and often allows them to see a missing network drive (Could just be the reboot). The repair can take quite a while, so we spend the time sticking needles into the USB slots. Is this Voodoo or acupuncture?

That doesn't make a lot of sense. Bad permissions will cause file access failures, not slowdowns. It sounds like voodo computing to me. Graeme Gill.

We run Macs with multiple user accounts (15-20). They regularly grind to a near halt. Repairing permissions seems to speed them up again and often allows them to see a missing network drive (Could just be the reboot).
That doesn't make a lot of sense. Bad permissions will cause file access failures, not slowdowns. It sounds like voodo computing to me.
Sounds like Spotlight (mdworker) gone crazy to me. Not the most stable piece of software and known to cause slowdowns and hog the disk. Peter Skarpetis

Hi I guess some of what we are probably experiencing is outlined below. Software is installed in one account and causes problems in another. When you attempt to fire up software it is hardly instantaneous and the software can crash as a result of permission problems. The user just sees the spinning thingy. Repairing the permissions seems to allow the 3rd party software to function on a multi account computer. People who do not run multi accounts probably would not experience this phenomenon. Best Matthew Issues Related to Permissions Incorrect permission settings may cause unexpected behavior. Here are several examples with troubleshooting suggestions: Application installers, Applications folder A third-party application installer incorrectly sets permissions on the files it installs, or even the entire Applications folder. Symptoms of the Application folder's permissions being set incorrectly include applications appearing in the dock as question marks, and/or not being able to connect to the Internet. It is also possible that software installed while logged in as one user will be inaccessible when logged in as another. To avoid this, make sure you are logged in with your normal user account when installing software that you wish to use with that account. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963 _________________________________ Matthew Ward matthew@matthewwardphotography.com www.matthewwardphotography.com www.imagebasedlighting.co.uk _________________________________
