Thanks to all of you who gave me suggestions on how to fix the color of Adobe images and Internet images on my monitor. I took it to my technician and he put it on one of his good monitors (he uses a bad monitor for his repair bench) and it looked fine. So....
Update as of 8/7/05 I tried another monitor and all is well. I searched Sunday morning on the Internet for "Hitachi CM715 Macintosh" and came up with a site that details how to deal with Adobe color management. In the page (http://www.gballard.net/nca.html) there was this section: -------------------------- 2) Here is a simple test to help evaluate if a bad monitor profile is whacking out your Photoshop color: --Monitors/Displays (control panel)> Color> highlight AppleRGB or sRGB (don't run Calibrate), quit and reboot. --A handful of users have confirmed problems with certain brands of monitors, Hitachi CM715 for example, is incompatible with Mac OS 10.2 & 10.3. The Hitachi monitors, the users wrote, worked with generic monitor profiles, like Apple RGB and sRGB, but as soon as they loaded a calibrated custom profile, the Hitachi screen whacked out the color in Photoshop in Panther and Jaguar. They wrote the same custom profiles worked properly under Systems 9 and 10.1. -------------------------- I have another monitor that I am using now. Just switched it around in the house and I'm back in business. I'm not sure I want to fool around with color profiles and switch back. Maybe in a few weeks. Thanks to all who had suggestions. I had no inkling that a monitor could be the culprit in this situation. Live and learn. Jennifer -- Jennifer [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
