Photoshop :: Manually Set Monitor Profile?
Jul 20, 2013
Instead of Photoshop, et al using my Win7 x64 ICC monitor profile, I would like to set it manually, as I'm able to do in other applications. Is this possible?Â
Â
The reason why is that I have a Dell U3014 and using the software that comes with it, I want to use its sRGB mode (and an associated sRGB profile from my Spyder 4 set as my Windows default) for all of my regular apps, and AdobeRGB mode (and profile) for my CS and other color-aware apps. My other apps DxO, PhotoMechanic, Canon SLR apps, etc. let me choose the profile.

Every single time I power up CS5 I get an error :"The monitor profile "Samsung - Natural Color Pro 1.0 ICM" appears to be defective. Please rerun your monitor calibration software.No other application complain about this.
Â
The monitor is a Samsung SyncMaster 226CW..If I go .. Control Panels Color Management..I can see that there is a profile "Samsung Natural Color Pro 1.0 ICM (default) file SM226CWicm..It is the ONLY profile listed.
Â
I deleted the profile.. I am then prompted to chose a new profile .....from the list shown there is the "Samsung Natural Color Pro 1.0 ICM"..I select that.Then next time I start CS..same error message again.

Just purchased a new monitor for the recording studio...an LG L227WTG FLATRON LCD. Went w/ the glossy screen technology (or whatever LG dubs it) in order to have mo better detail & clarity when working on the graphics side of the equation...Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.
But, speaking of Photoshop...when I open it now...I get a warning message that reads: The Monitor Profile "LG 227W" appears to be defective. Please rerun your monitor calibration software.
What does this mean (aside from the obvious)?
This will be my first high quality graphic experience in PC land; &...since I'm also designing not only my own CD jackets & insert booklets (on the CMYK end)...I'm designing my own web pages (on the RGB end). I need to get this right, so my presentation colors don't look silly.

This is an FYI for others trying to solve the problem I've been pulling my hair out over!
I was receiving a warning on startup of Ps CS3 "The monitor profile 'LCD color management and conversion' appears to be defective. Please rerun your monitor calibration software". This was after using my EyeOne to calibrate my monitor. I've seen variations of this problem on various forums and websites, but none helped my particular problem.
FINALLY, it occurred to me to check the default profile for my SECONDARY monitor! That one was using a stock profile that came with the monitor, but that was what was triggering the error message. Once I replaced that with the same profile as I created and was using on my primary monitor, Ps stopped displaying the warning.
If I recall from months ago when I researched and bought my colorimeter, my model will only calibrate one monitor, so I can't use it to create a unique profile for the second monitor.

can you turn that pop-up message "The monitor profile "Samsung - Natural Color Pro 1.0 ICM" appears to be defective. retrun your monitor calibration software" on and off.
Â
I may have checked the "don't show this message again" ? If so...can I re-enable the the profile warning message and how ? Or...does this pop-up only occur if there is a monitor profile issue when Photoshop starts ?

I have a vintage macBook pro running Snow leopard, PS CS3 & DW CS3. I have a lenovo Business computer-Vista and a Dell-XP with PS 7. My monitor died and I bought a Dell U2412 which I calibrated with i1 Display 2, the grey scale was good & neutral on every 3rd gradation but wandered dramatically in between measured targets, the colour was either good for the skin and dull on the primary and secondary colour targets or over saturated on the skin and too red in the blues and mag (but with correct Sat on primary secondary). This monitor a good colour out of the box in reviews (but not on a mac, Dell profile loaded but no drivers for mac), so I tried it on the lenovo with a greyscale I made on the mac, the Phase One Lowres Colour Checker and a couple of profile targets I got from commercial labs close by (all had primary-secondary swatches greyscales and some natural examples). The greyscale was good very neutral (black grey meld together) and the skin colour and primaries were fine, this is viewing them in paint and windows photo gallery. Double checked them with the Dell, inside and out side PS they looked great using the Dell supplied profile and terrible with a custom profile by i1 Display 2!
I up graded to the i1 Display pro, on the mac the greyscale was very good all round, far better, the skin was good as were all targets but the blue (255 blue in PS is normally very deep 74% tone in the info pallet and very intense) is rendered, appears that is as a med cobalt blue with a visual tone of I would say no more that 50% and while a bright blue far from intense. The magenta is the same a soft pure pink. They measure as they should though 255 blue and 255 red and 255 blue for the mag. I installed and profiled the lenovo with exactly the same settings and it looked great all over! So a Mac PC issue? probably not the Dell exhibits the same behavior when using the i1 Display 2 profile and the Dell U2412 profile. I made a double swatch (blue and magenta) in PS to e-mail to myself so I can monitor the problem a little easier using all 3 computers, as I attached it to the e-mail and I see it looks great in mail, very strange. I loaded the image on a webpage and in DW and put it on my site, all browsers display it as PS does soft. IE on the lenovo displays it as it should. On the mac Preview also displays it correctly.
Recap:
The U2412 is capable of displaying the colours.
The custom profile is loaded as the system profile on the mac and the PC.
The mac displays the 2 colours correctly in Mail and Preview.
The mac does not display the colours correctly in PS DW or web browsers.
The profile is being used by PS; The greyscale is perfect, opening the display preferences window and changing profiles shows a difference.
The profiles are loaded but are changed or corrupted in certain applications.
I cannot be the only one to bring a macBook pro, Snow leopard PS and i1 Display Pro together, am I the only one with a problem?

Although the following is usually discussed in conjunction with Multiple Monitors, I believe it may be relevant in some single monitor environments as well. As far as I can see, PS CS4 uses the Windows XP Default monitor profile (Display Properties > Settings > Advanced > Color Management) as its Monitor Profile (just to be complete here, in the absence of any entries under Color Management, PS uses the sRGB space as the Monitor Profile). I have not been able to find any other way to control which monitor profile PS will use. Hardware monitor calibration tools, as well as the Wincolor applet, make it possible to load the LUT on the fly, but neither my Spyder3 Elite software nor Wincolor actually update the Windows Default monitor profile definition. This means that without manually making the change in the Windows Color Management section, there is no way to tell PS to use a particular monitor profile, thus making it impossible to create a correct relationship between the LUT contents and the PS monitor profile. Making the manual change to Windows is not only tedious, but also makes it essential to REMEMBER to do this every time there is a to be profile switch, which may be necessary due to using one's laptop with different external monitors in different locations, or even just different profiles to compensate for varying ambient light conditions (e.g. one profile for natural daylight, another for artificial lighting at night). Contrary to several comments I've encountered in various posts, I am not able to assign a different Default profile to each monitor at the WIndows level. Perhaps this is possible with some video cards/software, but not with my Nvidia GeForce 8400M G and the latest software.

use a Mac for PS, but I have Adobe Gamma installed as Control Panel on my Windows XP machine, so I can correct the monitor balance.
After I run the Wizard, I save a new sRGB Color Space Profile.icm in WindowsSystem32spooldriverscolor.
But every time I restart Windows, it resets itself, and my monitor balance is off - much too light.
How do you get Windows XP to load this profile each time?

I have recently purchased LG IPS225V Flat Screen monitor and installed CS5 trial version. But as I try to run it I get an error message that the "LG IPS225V monitor color profile is corrupted, run the calibration wizard" and then there are two buttons labelled: "Ignore Profile" or "Use Anyway". This is a new monitor and it is considered to be providing the best factory calibrated color.
I have other free editing programs like Picasa 3, Pain.net etc.

In X3 you could open "Color Management" window, click on the screen icon and load the color profile of your monitor, but in X5 this window has changed and there is now option for the monitor color profile so I can't find how I could import it.

I've just ordered a new PC and want to keep it lean, solely for photo and video editing. To that end, I don't want to install AV and intend not to use it for internet access.
Is there any way for me to manually update PS by downloading updates to my laptop and then transferring them to my new PC. I know I can do that with ACR, but cannot find any information on doing it with other updates.

While editing two very similar photos and using the CS6 auto-tone command, one of the photos photoshop was able to truly fix up while the other barely changed. Here is the example:
Â
Photo A was very blue and dark; the auto-tone command magically fixed it up to have nice color variation in the rock and made it brighter. Here is the before/after:
On the other hand, photo B didn't work out the same way; the auto-tone command barely did anything, even though I thought both photos looked to have very similar problems (blue, dark, etc).Here are the links to the full original photo A and photo B in case they are useful...
Â
how can I achieve on photo B the same effect that auto-tone did for photo A! Is there any way to find out what adjustments auto-tone made?

I have just purchased Photoshop CS6 and ran the updater from within Photoshop. I know some of the updates worked but not all. So I ran it again 3 or 4 attempts now have failed with this message:-
Â
It has failed to install -
Extension Manager 6.0.6 Update
with the error message -Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7
Â
I have found a solution on the forum- Download and install the updates manually. Go to [URL]...updates and download the update that you are trying to install.There is no update available there which refers to Extension Manager 6.0.6 Update
Â
I opened the Adobe Application Manager and run it for updates, it reports I'm good - no updates! But when I then try for an update from within Photoshop I still get the same message telling me I need to instal ExtensionManager 6.0.6 UpdateI have tried to find the error log from within my system - but failed misserably (I am on Windows 7-64)
Â
where do I go from here? Do I need Extension Manager? What does it do? Is it vital I install this update?

In PS CS2 I used to manually align 3 images in Photomerge to make a triptych (not a panorama). I can't figure out how to do this in CS6. Do I need to work with a tool other than Photomerge?

I have a Photoshop action that, amongst other things, performs various fill-type operations on parts of an image. I want to run the action on a number different images, but I need to select different parts depending on the image.
Is there a way that I can manually position the cursor (i.e pick the correct area to process) while running the action? Or do I have to break the action up into shorter actions and do the fills manually in between?

So I've got a couple thousand PSD documents that need to be manually cropped down to best encompass the subject. Since I am unable to find a script that simply opens up the next document in the folder and I would have to manually find the next file each time (remember that files are unselected in Finder after having been saved), which would prove to be quite tedious.

I used to be able to minimize my images and have them on my workspace side-by-side.  I liked the convenience of dragging and dropping as well as seeing things right beside each other.

I've had this issue with every recent version of PSE.I'm using 64 bit Windows 7.When I close the organizer, the "Elements 12 Organizer" process is left running.
Â
This prevents PSE 12 restarting, without me manually killing the process from the task manager. I have created a shortcut to the organizer, as I know using the launcher has had issues in the past. I had a forum entry from December 2012 for the same problem with PSE11 which went away when I stopped auto-analyzer in the preferences. This seems to make no difference with PSE 12, which runs "ElementsAutoAnalyzer" anyway!
Â
If I kill Auto-analyzer process it also makes no difference to PSE 12 Organizer restart.
