Re: [datacolor_group] MacBook Pro screen green after calibration [1 Attachment]

2009-11-16 by drillguy@rogers.com

Very technical questions but I'll try to answer.
 
Using a MacBook Pro with OS 10.4.11. It's 15.4 inch display - not sure of video card model.  It's one of the original MacBook Pro with an upgraded hard drive. Not sure what you mean by what standards I am calibrating to. Ambient light is natural light coming through a window in my office - not direct light.  Actually, it was cloudy so bright but not very bright. Don't know if that helps.
 
I am plugged into the only USB port on the right hand side of the MacBook Pro.  The only other one is on the left side.
 
Not using the ambient light wizard.
 
Trying to calibrate for photography.

Not enough info for troubleshooting; rather like telling Click and 
Clack that you bought a car, and it won't run, could they please tell 
you why? Please note your OS and version, your display and videocard 
model, what standards you are calibrating to, what ambient lighting 
you are using, what port you are plugging into, whether you are using 
the ambient light wizard, and anything else that might be a factor.
