No monitor profile available. Yellow tint after import

Hello. I have bough last week a new Toshiba notebook which has Windows 8.1 preinstalled on it.
I have noticed a problem that seems other came also on the same issue. When i watch images on a non profile managed software, the images look fine. Once i import them on Lightroom or Photoshop, the images get a yellow tint.
The problem and a possible solution is also described here: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1164320 . This is setting the sRGB as a monitor profile. I know this is not a great solution, but surely better than what i see on my monitor. In any way, this unfortunately this did not work for me.
This is what i mean with the yellow tint (left Lightroom, right Irfan)
Today i tried following:
Step 1
The image is in RAW format. I import it in Lightroom and gets that yellow tint i described.
I export it with sRGB in jpg format. The jpg file has still that yellow tint. Please note here, that others that report similar problems, they mention that after the export they image looks again fine.
Step 2
I open the RAW image with Irfan (not color managed) and save it as jpg. The image is saved "correctly", as you see on the right side of the image above.
Step 3
I import the exported jpeg that was created with Irfan and import it to Lightroom.
The yellow Tint now does not appear on the imported JPEG.
One more tip i can give is: When i do a Soft proofing on Lightroom and choose sRGB i still see that yellow tint.
What exactly is happening ? I try to identify the problem. Why i see just raw images with this yellow tint, no matter the profile i set for my monitor and no matter the proofing options on lightroom.
I don't want to spend 100+ euro for a calibration device and not being able to use the profiles.
Any suggestions for further testing ?

First - Irfanview needs to be at least IV 4.35 and needs to have the LCMS.DLL plug-in installed as well as having the Color Management enabled so that you have some chance of your Photoshop and IrfanView versions of an image matching:
Alright we have the first conflict here.
I have the latest IrfanView version (4.37) , i saw that the Lcms.dll exists in the plugin list, and i have set the settings as suggested.
Furthermore at the moment i have sRGB as my default monitor profile. Still this is how i see things.
IrfanView and Photoshop have the same difference as before. Yes i have rerasted IrfanView on every change. I actually freshly installed also the latest irfanView version with its plugin.

About this
As you can see the Adobe default processing with the Adobe Standard profile, at top left, is a little greenish. This is compared to the default camera processing as viewed in the camera-embedded preview jpg from the CR2 at the bottom right which a white frame around it.
When i open the raw image on LR, i have (from what i can see on my monitor) the same results as your Adobe default processing (Top left) . What confused me on your image above is bottom left image "Adobe processing - Camera standard". What is with Adobe processing meant here? The camera profile? If yes then how can we have Adobe camera profil but also camera standart ? If you mean the process LR provides, mine is set on 2012. But no adobe available for selection. I do not know if this is meant though.
Here is my comparison between Adobe Standart Profile and Camera Standard.
LR: Adobe Profile vs Canon Standart Profile
One more comparison is of the files you made available including the IranView jpg you supplied as compared to the Canon JPG preview that I extracted from the CR2 file:
What you can see is that the CR2 as viewed in LR and LR's exported JPG of that CR2 look about the same (top and bottom left), and the IrfanView and Canon-JPG versions of the CR2 look the same (top and bottom right). This is your IV version of the JPG, not something I made, but I expect IV has just extracted the camera-embedded fullsize preview JPG from the CR2 file just like I did using a different tool, so they look the same, but it is possible your IV is using a Canon-specific plug-in that uses the Canon-supplied SDK library DLLs that can also duplicate Canon processing. I only have the Formats.dll and the CRW.dll but not all the extra SDK DLLs so I expect my IV is only extracting the camera-embedded preview JPG.
Yes i can confirm that also on my environment. The exported CR2 from LR matches the exported JPG as also there is a match between IrfanView CR2 with the Camera standard profile export. Unfortunately i cannot confirm if IrfanView uses a sort of Canon-plugin to make the RAWS rendered automatically with the Canon standard profile.
And if you want your Adobe treatment of CR2 files to look much more similar to your camera's treatment, then use the Camera Standard profile in Lightroom and the PS ACR plug-in.
Question on this. Should i always put a Camera Standart profile on all my images after importing them on LR ?
Also please, let me know what you meant with Adobe Processing. I searched on the web with "Adobe Processing lightroom" , but i could not understand what is meant.
If using the Camera Standard profile doesn't make things look almost the same, then please post a side-by-side of LR's view of the CR2 and IrfanView's JPG extracted from the CR2--what you've linked to, just above.
Here is a comparison between an exported JPG from Lightrom with camera profile (Right) compared to an exported JPG with IrfanView from the RAW (left). As mentioned before the images look identical, with the one exported from LR with Camera profile being a bit more vibrant. But not much of a difference.
IrfanView vs Camera Profile export
So in the end it seems you see also that green-yellowish cast on the RAW image. From what i see on the screenshots you made.
The question now is why i do not see RAW the same as Adobe software ? Could i do this test with an other viewer?
To summerize from my side as well. A monitor calibration is surely good to do. On the other side the cast i see on the RAW in this case has not to do with the profile but rather with Adone profile and the way this image was captured.
PS. I must admit that is one of the best on line support i have ever seen. Thumbs up ssprengel !

Screen image getting a yellow tint after being on ~2 hours.

My display is getting a yellow tint to it. It seems to come up after I've been using the display for a while. If I go into the display preferences and change the colour profile I can get it looking normal for a while by increasing the blue, but then it will slowly continue to get yellow.

I think a pram reset will help http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
By the way, dont regret not getting a powerbook, there displays are much more prone to problems. Not to mention the worse battery life and warping aluminum due to overheating etc.. Bah im so glad i got an iBook

Satellite P70-A: monitor profile not available/unable to set other profiles

Hello.
I have bough last week a new Toshiba notebook (P70-A-11Q) which has Windows 8.1 preinstalled on it.
It seems that the device has a problem with the monitor profiles.
When i watch images on a non profile managed software, the images look fine.
Once i import them on Lightroom or Photoshop, the images get a yellow tint.
This is what i see: Left (Lightrom), Right (Irfan) [Yello Tint|http://i1252.photobucket.com/albums/hh565/rockreactor/Clipboard05_zps092c5501.jpg]
Unfortunately i have tried to add sRGB on my profiles but even after restarting i did not see any change.
From what i have noticed the operating system did not have any profiles set at all before.
I know that selecting an sRGB profile is not a great solution and i should rather calibrate my monitor.
The question is why don't the profiles take any effect on my notebook monitor, no matter which one i choose.
Could it be that there is some conflict with the Intel display driver ?
Can Toshiba support such an issue under warranty ?
I believe its not my responsibility to get a totally uncalibrated monitor, or at least a laptop without some suggested profile.
Thank you in advance

Hi mate
> Can Toshiba support such an issue under warranty ?
First of all warranty does not cover any software issue. The warranty covers only hardware problems.
But I dont think also that this could be a software problem. I guess its just an settings issue.
I recommend you to check if the option +Use Windows display calibration"+ is turned ON
- Open the Color Management control panel.
- Go to the Advanced tab.
- Click "Change system defaults..."
- Go to the Advanced tab in the Color Management - System Defaults dialog.
- Turn on "Use Windows display calibration" and click Close.
- Now go back to the Devices tab, change profiles there and click "Set as Default Profile" as usual.
You can also go through the built-in Windows calibration feature ("Calibrate display" button in the advanced tab)

After I updated, pictures has gotten a yellow tint where it should be white.

after I updated, pictures has gotten a yellow tint where it should be white. I checked the same websites in safari, and those sites shows perfect color.
What can I do to fix this issue?
Being a photographer, this is quite a big problem

You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)].

Yellow tint back after 2.01 update

I just updated my 3G iPhone with firmware ver 2.01 and noticed that the yellow tint that many users experienced with the initial 2.0 firmware version, is back.

you didn't read my post at all.
You are not comparing the 5A37 firmware to 2.01, you are comparing the older iphone to the newer one, which has been designed with a warmer screen, so your assertation that the tint is "back" after 2.0.1 is flawed. In fact, the 3G screens do vary from phone to phone, so it is scientifically impossible to determine that 2.0.1 reverted the phone to a warmer color.

Yellow Tint Macbook Pro After Boot Up Screen(Apple Logo with White Background)

Hi guys
I have just recieved my macbook pro 13" 2012 base model, the screen is yellowish when compared to other macbook pros.
The strange issue is that I notice when I power it on, the screen is normal(white is white) at the boot up screen(white background with apple logo in the middle). But the screen will turn yellowish at that screen right before it finishes booting up(right before the screen logs in), like it has loaded a display profile. But thats is not the case though because my display profile is at default like others.
So the screen turns yellowish right before it finishes booting up and comes to my desktop screen.
Any suggestions please? this is my first mac

Hi Colloc
I bought my macbook from the apple online store.
I found out that every macbook pro screen changes colour before the booting up process completes. I did a comparison with another macbook pro (same model) and it turned out like that too. but the thing is, during usage, it can clearly be seen that my screen has a stronger yellow tint compared to the other one.
I returned my macbook and got a refund for now. I really want one but not sure if I should try buying one again.
I sure yours is normal

Yellow tint to photos after iMovie renders

Has anyone had a problem with iMovie rendering photos with a yellow tint? The photos look fine in the clip window, but when they are rendered they become tinted.
Help
Thank YOu
Patricia

I used the same color orange for some text earlier in the project so I'm
thinking that must have something to do with it.
Good catch. Yes, there was an iMovie bug that would sometimes apply the last-used text color to other clips when adding a visual effect. The solution is to quit iMovie, then open the project, remove the effect, then re-apply it.
I didn't think this bug had survived into iMovie 5 (the Discussion area you've posted in) but perhaps it did.

Possible to bypass monitor profile when displaying image?

After importing a large photo library into Aperture I noticed that when viewing images, they would change color and in a little under a second the colors looked significantly less "colorful and rich" than before. Sounds "subjective" but it really is not. There is definitely a transformation going on and the colors consistently become duller on every image viewed. It is especially noticeable in a album of images taken in the fall using a circular polarizer where the colors looked really great to begin with and then extremely dull after the transformation. I deleted all of the preview images and set aperture to not regenerate them. Still, same issue occurred. The issue occurs with both RAW and jpg images.
In Canon Image Browser on the Mac colors look great. It's easy to do an A to B comparison of the same file and see that it looks better in every case.
But what I've discovered is that I can get the same "dulling" result to occur using Canon's Image Browser 6.x software just by setting one option.
There is an option checkbox in Preferences that is disabled by default to "Adjust Image Colors Using A Monitor Profile." Prior to setting that option, the colors looked great, just like they looked on the camera LCD, and they same as they look on my PC also using Canon Image Browser software and Irfan view. The rich colors seen when not using monitor profile also match what I see in Safari, Chrome, and Internet Explorer browsers.
In Canon Image Browser when I set the checkbox to "Adjust Image Colors Using A Monitor Profile" the colors become very muted. They look identical to what I see in Aperture. Also, I can get the same effect to occur on the PC version of Canon Image Browser. Microsoft's "Windows Photo Viewer" seems to be monitor profile aware as it shows the same dull colors. "Windows Photo Viewer" offers no option that I can find to improve the look of the color. Maybe this is what you want if you're trying to print your images and have them match exactly what is seen on screen.
I have found that with Photoshop CS5 I can export a jpg to tiff which strips out the color space information and then voila the image "pops" when I bring it into aperture and looks the way it does in Canon Image Browser without using monitor profile. In fact you can really then compare within Aperture how big the difference is between the two, and the only thing I did was resave the image to a new file format without doing anything else in photoshop. It's not feasible to resave evertthing as tiff though.
So my main question is, is there a way within Aperture to bypass the monitor profile so I can see the images with the same colors as they are rendered in the majority of the other tools I use.

I've done some additional testing on a jpeg image.
Test 1:
Canon Image Browser: "Preferences/Adjust Image Colors Using a Monitor Profile" is unhecked
Photoshop CS5: "View/Proof Setup" is set to "Monitor RGB"
Aperture: "Onscreen Proofing" enabled and set to "Generic RGB" Additionally I've tried every other color profile available
Result: The colors look identically rich on Photoshop and Canon Image Browser. Aperture is the only tool I can't get to align with the rich colors.
Test 2
Canon Image Browser: "Preferences/Adjust Image Colors Using a Monitor Profile" is checked. Restart the software to apply change.
Photoshop CS5: "View/Proof Setup" is set to "Internet standard sRGB"
Aperture: "Onscreen Proofing" enabled and set to "sRGB"
Result: The colors match on all 3 tools. The color are very noticeably less rich than in Test 1.
I went ahead and previewed the image in the browsers on the Mac. Chrome and Firefox showed the color the same as Photoshop and Canon Image Browser did in Test 1 which looks better in my opinion.
For Safari color looks the same as Test 2.
Also Apple Preview looks the same as Test 2 no matter which soft proofing setting is applied.
I believe Adobe and Canon have the correct behavior and show either richer or duller colors depending on which "proofing" mode they are in. Only aperture so far cannot be made to do the richer colors.

Monitor profile applied twice?

Hi guys,
the colors in Lightroom (and Photoshop Elements 7 Raw import window as well) look green and flat. I could fix this problem in the PSE7 editor window by switching off the monitor color profile. But I cannot find any similar handle in LR and PSE7 raw importer. So, it seems to me that the monitor profile is applied twice -- once from LR/PSE (which assumes no further color treatment, so does the correction itself), and second the graphics card (which expects uncalibrated color informations as input).
Switching off calibration does not help either.
System is
Vaio VGN-AW31ZJ/F (Laptop, Wide Gamut display)
Windows Vista Home Premium
Datacolor Spyder 3 Pro, SW Version 3.2.1
I'm desperated... I mean, this is not such an unusual combination...
Please advice.

So, last night I've lost my patience with Windoze... All thesepop-ups and advanced and advanced-advanced andadvanced-advanced-advanced options in sub and sub-sub and sub-sub-sub dialogue boxes drive me nuts.... So, I'm back tothe good-old brute force methods:
From the discussionabove it is clear that (a) all I need is the monitor profile and(b) that the problem is related to the system (and not specific to LRor PSE7). Thus I simply have deleted all icc/icm files in the profiles directory, except the one from Spyder -- and surprise, surprise, the colors seem to be correct now (if meanwhile my eyes have not adapted to the wrong colors.....) Will have to cross-check with a printout and perhaps a "calibrated" proof print, if I can find one... But a priori, the test image looks fine now and is consistent with other monitor profile aware viewers. The colors also seems to be consistent with what I get on the Linux side when monitor profile management is enabled (difficult to compare directly in dual boot mode...).
After deleting the "useless files", I still saw a very slight green tint in test image. Then I played a bit with the rendering options perceptive/saturation/relative/absolute in the Windows system settings -- before I could reboot the machine (to make sure that there are no left-over settings floating around), just in this moment SP2 arrived. Switching back to the default settings (perceptive for photos) after installation of SP2, I cannot see the green tint anymore.
There's still some other junk in the Windows profile directory (wscRGB.cdmp, Photo.gmmp, D65.camp,...)... Dunno which harm this does. At least, Bill didn't let me delete it by default... Has anyone any clue what those files are about...?
I also have tried out the v2 ICC profiles. Actually, I was working all the time with v2, which is the default setting in my version of Spyder 3 Pro. However I don't see any difference in the outcome. (Okay, I didn't look at the rendering of the shadows in LR yet.).
Regarding Firefox 3.5, I don't see any problem with color management a in firefox yet. Just want to mention that you can change firefox's color management behavior by typing "about:config" in the URL and then scroll down to gfx.color_management. Here you can type in the name of the monitor profile (display_profile) as well as the "mode": mode is set to 2 by default, but folks report to get better (correct) results when setting mode to 1. Me, myself I haven't seen any difference here (yet). Actually, Jeffrey Friedl has very nice test pictures on pages 1 and 2 of this above mentioned Blog page where you don't need to guess whether CM works at all or whether it's right or wrong. For me, everything comes out correct.
PS: Graphics card is according to the spec sheet an "NVIDIA® GeForce® 9600M GT GPU".

Incorrect colors after importing a RAW image into LR

I shoot in RAW mode using Canon EOS 400D.
After importing RAW images into LR, EVERY image I shot gets oversaturated with green-yellow colors. If I open same image in C1 Pro colors look fine.
If I change shooting mode on my camera to JPG (using sRGB color space) and import image into LR, colors look same as on RAW image in C1 Pro. All settings in LR and C1 Pro are set to default.
My guess is that LR applies wrong (camera?) profile when it imports a RAW image. I don't think it's a difference in RAW converters, because the difference in colors is really huge.
In the Camera Calibration panel I see ACR 3.6 profile selected and all settings are set to 0. Using sliders I can correct colors on image, but I failed to make a generic preset that could be applied on all imported RAW images.
My monitor (Samsung 940BF) is setup to use manufacturer ICC profile. I tried to change it to sRGB or Adobe RGB, it doesn't help. I'm running Windows XP SP2.
Any thoughts on how to return colors back to normal?
Here are 2 examples of the same image converted by:
1. LR
[url=http://img263.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img1258lightroomsmallcp7.jpg][img]http://img 263.imageshack.us/img263/8411/img1258lightroomsmallcp7.th.jpg[/img][/url]
2. C1 Pro

Morey,
there is no such options as "import settings into LR" you have to put the ACR-settings-file into the "~/Library/Adobe Lightroom/Develop Presets" folder (on a Mac). I think in the end its faster to just copy the numbers manually from ACR and save the preset from within LR.
No, I don't think that calibrating has anything to do with profiles, at least not from what I understand as a profile (like sRGB or ProPhoto profile). It is kind of changing the stored default calibration values for a given camera type (something which one of course could also call a profile). It is definitive not like doing any double profiling or so.
@Lee Jay,
on different forums you can find values for ACR camera calibration of different cameras, googling should reveal some. Problem is that the numbers for the calibration change with the lens and, more important, there seems to be a lot of leeway regarding the behaviour of individual cameras of the same model. I found a lot of numbers on the net which didn't work with my D70, in the end I had to calibrate it myself. But your experience might differ, so I would suggest that you just have a look at what google offers.
One last thing: You don't need to buy a PS version which is compatible with ACR 3.7 or 4.0. You can use the 30 day trial version of PS for this. Afterall you most probably only need to calibrate each camera once and I doubt that Adobe disapproves this use of a trial version as long as it helps to sell LR. ;-)
Bye,
Carsten

Yellow Tint

My Macbook's screen seems to have a yellowish tint to it - yes, the entire screen. When displaying any white image or website, like Google or even this very support forum, the white is noticeably yellow. My girlfriend also has a Macbook and I've compared them. Her whites are genuinely white when side by side with mine, so I know I'm not just paranoid. I thought it could be an issue with my Display Profile but we are both using the exact same profile, "Color LCD", as I'd like to stick with what it came with and what I've been using for over a year. The other profiles seem too blue, anyway. I digress, though.
My Macbook is only about a year and a half old and this really bothers me. Any help would be appreciated.

OK, I'll reply.
My MacBook has the LG-Philips LP133WX1-TLA1 LCD panel, and to me it is a bit on the red/yellow tint side for my liking, even after using the System Preferences / Displays / Calibrate settings. Qualitatively just by eye, the LP133WX1-TLA1 display looks like it is optimized for video. The white on my MacBook looks about the same shade as white on my Sony TV when the TV is set to, "NTSC Standard," color temperature.
Apple has used several different LCD panels in MacBooks, so your results may vary. It seems like many other computer monitors are set to very hot color temperatures and are very biased to emphasize blue. The MacBook may be getting color temperature right, but looks reddish compared to everything else.
I have other grumbles about MacBook displays that annoy me more: narrow viewing angle, they're really only 18 bits color depth (they dither to get 24 bit; dither method varies by manufacturer), some have cathode bleed - the bottom of part of the display looks washed out. The display in my MacBook is pretty good on cathode bleed, but I have seen other MacBooks where cathode bleed is strong.
The new notebooks that have LED back lit displays look really great - MacBook Air and various Windows-compatible notebooks. Technology is always getting better; I've enjoyed my MacBook anyway, despite its few quirks and limitations.

Yellow tint PROBLEM FW+AI+PS

Hello,
I am having a serious problem with kuler panel in FW, AI, PS
and with search field in FW + AI.
http://www.designme.sk/junk/omg.png
Cant see the kuler colors as they should look like, because
they are covered with yellow tint (looks like 50% alpha).
This was happening on with my old graphics (geforce 8600gt),
but happens with new (radeon hd4670) one also. Latest drivers,
latest updates, lates everything.. So I reinstalled windows, sp3,
windows update, new drivers, clean CS4 install.. Same freakin
thing. Can anyone tell what is the problem here? I am using
download version cs4 design premium english.

@designme.sk,
I am curious... did you use calibrated device to help correct
color management problem in your monitor? If no, I recommend that
you should consider to invest in one of those nice
professional-quality calibrated device. In many case, having
corrected color profile set up in your monitor, then workflow
working with your project with "the right color profile" in right
approach, the right way of managing color management.
As you probably already know how important color management
is, so I don't have to go into that further.
Hope that helps.
Cheers, DWD

Not Liking The Yellow Tinted Screen

I'm kind of disappointed that Apple decided to put a cheaper screen in the new phones. Hopefully I'm wrong and that it's not a screen and can be fixed through an update or something, or I can return this phone in a month or so and they'll have the newer shipment of phones with old iPhone lighting on the screens. I'm currently doing a restore on my phone to see if it fixes the lighting at all, because I read somewhere that a restore makes it less yellow tint-ish. Also not liking the 1 bar I'm getting at my house with 3G on, not cool.
Now I got a question. I don't know much about MobileMe but I don't have it. I also don't know anything about Push and if it has anything to do with MobileMe. I have 2 Gmail accounts loaded on my iPhone, should I keep Push on? And does it have any effect on battery usage with it on?

This is the partial breakdown:
1st Gen iPhone had a white point of 8300K;
iPhone 3G has white point between 6800K - 7300K by design, intentional.
Native white point for a Mac monitor is 6500K (D65)
Mac monitors are usually at Gamma 1.8 (subtly blu-ish IMO), and PC monitors are at Gamma 2.2 (slightly fluorescent yellowish)
What is the Gamma of the screen of the 3G iPhone?
Because if a future adjustment is available to screen settings of 3G iPhone, then I would try to set it to 6500K and a Gamma of 1.8 to most nearly emulate a Mac monitor.
So I wonder if Apple changed to a yellowish 2.2 Gamma, to slightly cater to the larger PC user base , who is used to seeing screens at Gamma 2.2, with its inherent yellowness?
Either way, I don't think I'll have a problem with new screen, cuz I got an idea of why it was chosen.

Dual monitor profile problem

Macbook pro 4,1 , epson 4800, Dell 24" wide gamut display and I'm having the exact same problems as this 3 year old thread!!!
https://discussions.apple.com/message/7289716#7289716
Can't print using profiles as wrong profile gets applied. This all happens with laptop NOT in clamshell mode, which I prefer so that I can use all screen real estate.

Call Epson support and see if they can give you a complete trouble-shooting algorithm.
The following works for me (I don't think it will work for you, but it may give some leads to explore):
- I keep the menu bar on my laptop
- I put Aperture on my wide-gamut monitor (NEC PA271W)
- I keep secondary display set to "Desktop"
- I never run full-screen
- I confirm the monitor profile at least once a day, and every time I change monitors (I work in two locations, ea. with an external monitor). By "confirm" I mean that I re-assign the profile, not that I re-calibrate the display.
- I have the external monitor connected directly with an mfr-supplied mini-DisplayPort (iirc) to DisplayPort (iirc) cable. This was important.
- I had to take some care with the Epson set-up. All I can suggest here is most recent drivers. I first got the USB connection to finally work, and then got the Ethernet connection to work properly as well.
I mention all of that because in the thread you linked there are comments about both the external monitor not using the correct profile, as well as the printer not using the correct profile.
I would first confirm (you likely already have) that the printer works properly printing from Aperture with no external monitor. After that, things get tricky.
What I picked up from some poking around and talking with knowledgeable people is that OS X does not do a good job with color. (I was surprised.)
Sorry I don't have any real help to provide. Good luck.

Viewing angle to the left or right I get a Yellow tint

When I move to the left or right I get a Yellow cast to my screen. Moving up and down no yellow tint.
Normal or not?

I had the same problem,
You need to change the color profile to this one:

Let me know if it's ok after using the new color

I will give it a try.....but how do I do that. I down-loaded the profile but don't know how to install it?
Thanks
