10.6.8 update: corrupted master 'iMac.icc' colour settings

Hi –
During the lastest update, the master 'imac.icc' profile has become corrupted during the reboot. Now shows a very 'washed out' and high contrast screen.
Can I download the iMac replacement .icc profile from the support archive ?
– or is there another suggestion (yes – I have tried Expert Calibration – but its not making any difference to screen visibilty)
Kind Regards,
Frazer

I'm having the exact same issue on my new 2011 21" imac. The screen looks very washed out and all of the colors are off.
I also tried using the expert calibration mode but I could not get it back to the pre 10.6.8 settings.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Josh

  • Factory rest imac monitor colour settings ready for spyder 4 install

    i need to install sypder 4 pro and it asks me to make sure the monitor colour is set to factory default. Anyone know how i do this?

    Open System Preferences (under the Apple menu) and select Displays. Select the Color tab. You'll see a number of display profiles, including hopefully your iMac's default profile. If it is not already selected, select it.
    Best of luck.

  • I did an auto software update on my iMac, which included a restart. When the machine restarted it's stuck with an Apple logo and spinning wheel. I've tried all of the key strokes that are supposed to work, but nothing has. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Gray screen could be any number of things, bad third party at boot kext file, a bad Apple one, a bad install/upgrade of OS X, drive corruption etc.

  • Hello all.   Hope someone can help me. I recently downloaded some  updates for my imac.  Since doing this the computer starts up but I get no logon box.  The home screen opens but I can't open any programs or files. I've tried rebooting, no joy. Help!!

    Hello all..   I hope someone here can help.  I recently downloaded some updates to my imac.  Since then the computer starts but I get the home screen opening without the logon box.    I can't open any programs or files and if I click on the Safari tab it disappears from the dock.  I've tried rebooting with no joy.
    I contacted technical help at Apple and was told to hold down the ctrl and alt keys with two other keys, I think the S or P keys when powering up. This worked
    and the computer seemed fine but now the problem has reappeared.  Is there a way to removed downloaded updates from the computer or revert it to an earlier state?   Sorry for the long question. Hopefully one of you clever people can help.   Simon

    I have a hard drive icon on my desktop that says 10.6.2....
    I use to have iphoto, it doesnt open anymore, it says there is 1.2gigs on that disk.There are many things on here that are the same way. Where do I start?
    It's always good to go with one thing at a time and stay focused on that. Let's start with the OS you're running. Click on the Apple menu > About This Mac. What does it say under Mac OS X version ?

  • I have just agreed to software updates on my imac and now can't open my mail.  There is a message saying this version of mail isn't compatible with this latest software.  I have located the updated mail in the applications folder but it won't open. Help!

    I have just agreed to software updates on my imac and now can't open my mail.  There is a message saying this version of mail isn't compatible with this latest software.  I have located the updated mail in the applications folder but it won't open. I don't have the original operating software disk.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Your reply suggests that you have moved Mail to a different location, which (as I said) will prevent it from being properly updated. You cannot use Mail 4.5 with any recent version of Mac OS X. Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) included Mail 5 and Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) includes Mail 6. I'm assuming that you have either Lion or Mountain Lion, but if that is incorrect, you will need to provide that information.
    At this point, you will need to reinstall your system. Hold down command-R at startup and reinstall the system right on top of the old one. This should not disturb any of your documents or applications, though you should have backups beforehand in case something goes wrong. And at this point, with your system in an uncertain state (I don't entirely know what you have done to it), something could go wrong.
    You will also want to delete the old copy of Mail 4.5, wherever that is. You can't use it.
    In the future, do not move any of the preinstalled applications. Leave them where they are.

  • How can I update my 2008 iMac to the latest Safari OS?

    Can anyone help me? The iTunes update corrupted my program. I uninstalled, and then reinstalled iTunes; only to find an error message about iTunes Helper. After several fruitless, repeat attempts, I am at a loss. Please help…

    Many thanks.
    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version):
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Data load error during updation of master data

    Dear all,
    While updating the master data from the PSA , the following error is appearing and the load fails.
    "The time interval ['20050313'/'20050313'] & (from/to) for the data
    records 1 & and 2 & overlaps in characteristic 0EQUIPMENT &."
    What could be the reason for this error and how to correct the same.
    I am able to understand that the valid from and the valid to date are same. in R/3 whenever a change record is created for the equipment the valid from and the valid to date will be the same as shown below.
    Creation of record (for example today) valid from         :- 02.06.2008 and valid to 31.12.9999.
    Change of record (for example tommorrow) Valid from :- 03.06.2008 and valid to 31.12.9999
    In the above case the valid to date of the creation data will automatically change from 31.12.9999 to 03.06.2008. 
    How could this be solved.
    Regards,
    M.M

    Hi Magesh,
    Please look at /BIC/*Equipment table in SE16.
    Find the record with a key = ********* and notice what values have Date_from and Date_to fields. The interval they determine, overlap with ur date_to and date_from.
    You need to supply correct date_to & date_from values.
    thanks
    Assign points if this helps
    Note:  this is a common scenario in time dependendent master data.....it happens because you have two records for the same values of master data and also they have overlapping time interval.....you cannot have two values of master data at the same time.

  • Using the APD to update material master in CRM

    Does anybody know if it is possible to update material master records in CRM from BW using the Analyses Process Designer with target CRM?
    I would prefer to know this before creating a custom data target adapter in the CRM SPRO, writing all the required function modules and then finding out that it does not work.

  • HT1557 10.9.2 update won't update on my imac 2010 at all, and now my computer won't shutdown or restart without a hard boot.  Did anyone have this same problem and figure out how to fix it?

    So for the past few weeks I've been trying to update the 10.9.2 update on my imac (2010 - 21.5 inch) and when I attempt to try to update the software my screen goes grey with a Software Updater top bar the shows up on the top of the grey screen and then just quits doing anything (except the screen saver which works after nothing else happens - and that shows you how long I've been waiting for the grey screen to magically do something.  I've attempted downloading the software update then installing it but the same thing happens.  I don't think any of my 3rd party software is the cause of this and i'd rather not uninstall the programs since the update won't even do anything.  Utility is telling me nothing but the usual ARD element unable to be modified.
    With the several failed attempts at installing this update (probably around 15x) my computer will not shutdown nor restart on command anymore.  The only way I can shut it down is holding the power button.
    I used to have so much faith in Apple products and used to be a devoted user, but since Jobs passed away the direction of Apple has gone down the toilet.

    Well Bababooey if you're comparing yourself to a Apple Genius Bar then you should already know my answer, your snarky remark get a snarky reply.  Why would I go to a salesperson to fix my computer problem when I can go directly go to the source itself.  I used to sell Apple computers over 8 years ago and was apple certified before the Genius bar existed. If I am to go about fixing an issue I can't fix on my own I will go to the source itself meaning Apple's programmers and developers - being UI UX Developer myself I know they should have QA'd all platforms and troubleshooted any arising issues. 
    This was also the first time in the 20 years I've been using a Mac that I even attempted to go on this forum which i thought would put me in connection with a certified Apple representative.  This turned out to be a complete waste of time just being a public forum with no Apple employee involved.  I was hoping to find a quick fix but in turn I was only frustrated with stupid responses such as yours that were in no way an answer to my original question. 
    BTW I fixed the issue on my own and without your help or Apples help. I'm glad if all forums point here regarding this issue because I now have the answer. The answer I was looking for from someone earlier was as simple as this {Download Maverick and reinstall the platform - it will take an hour to do but afterward 10.9.2 was installed and my computer is now able to shutdown and restart without having to do a hard boot.}  No more software update bar at top and no problems with my drive which I told both you and Grant - I know my computer better than you and I've probably been using them longer than you. 
    So again Babowa you were so wrong...... and I am right.
    Again anyone having the same problem, I suggest reinstalling Maverick and you'll be suprised 10.9.2 will work fine.

  • Insert or Update Item Master is too slow

    Dear Expert,
    I have a problem in add or update Item Master Data. When I click Add/Update, the process saving is too slow (need more than 5 minutes). This condition appear yesterday. In 2 days ago process add/update item master data normal.
    But the others transaction like business process, transaction is normal.
    I have did shrink database in SQL, but not help.
    Does anybody help my problem? how should I do?
    Thank you before help me

    Hi pak Hendra,
    May I know how much is your livedb size now ? If it is still slow after reindexing, you may consider to do these followings suggestions:
    1. Increase your server hdd size
    2. Increase your server's processor
    3. cut off and do new opening balance
    Is the problem happened in branch/outlet ? do you use citrix to access the server from branch ? Of course you can reindex the db to solve this issue but it is not the only one solution. You must also concern about the connection.

  • Problem updating infoobject master data from a dso.

    Hi all,
    i'm updating the master data of an infoobject from another ods, the two table have the same key.
    When i update the infoobject with full repair i get errors about duplicate records and the data load stops, when i delete the request and launch the infopackage again all goes well but it seems it doesn't insert any new record in the master data, what could be the problem?
    If you need more info ask me.
    Thanks a lot.
    Stefano

    Hi Sadeesh,
    i checked the master data table and it seems it has been updated, i check some order number with recordmode N added today in the dso and the entries were in the infoobject, though i don't know why in the request tab it shows 0 added records.
    To be completely sure tomorrow i will check again the number of entries in the 'p' table of the infoobject.
    Anyway this is the exact error message i get:
    7 duplicate record found.     6478 recordings usedin table /BIC/XZDOCDSO
    7 duplicate record found.     6478 recordings usedin table /BIC/PZDOCDSO
    After that i run the change run for the IO and when i launch again tha data load it goes well.
    Regards

    Thanks. Manual buckets isn't as elegant as auto-detect by network name, but it's certainly easier than changing settings in networking.

  • Corrupted Master File Table on External Hard-Drive(NTFS)

    You could try some data recover software, it should be able to copy the data off for you (as long as there are no physical problems with the HD). Recuva is free, Rstudio is also very good. You will need to have enough space available on another drive to restore the data to.
    Best of luck with it! :)

    First off I want to apologize if I sound inexperienced, this is my first time posting on Spiceworks and I have only been in IT for a year as an intern.So here is my problem, I have an external hard-drive that I use as a secondary drive for storage. The other day I went to get something off it when I noticed that I could not access the drive through file explorer. It came up with an error saying "Data error (cycle redundancy check).".
    I proceeded to google the problem since I have not seen the error before and found many forums telling me to run a check disk on the drive with /f to fix the errors on the disk. I run the chkdsk and I get the following error"Corrupt master file table. Windows will attempt to recover master file table from disk. Windows cannot recover master file table. CHKDSK aborted".
