Removing Adobe Gamma on an eMac computer

I have a Spyder2express and an eMac computer.
I have read that before I profile my monitor using any monitor calibrator, I must first remove Adobe Gamma alias from start up folder. That this file must be deleted before using the monitor profiling system. That if I don't remove Adobe Gamma, there maybe problems creating a satisfactory profile with the Spyder2express.
The questions I have are:
1 I am unable to find the Adobe Gamma alias folder?
2. Could somebody walk me though the steps to find and delete the Adobe Gamma alias folder?
thanks
Sue

Unless you have an ancient machine running a prehistoric version of the OS and of Photoshop, there is no Adobe Gamma on your machine. The Mac version was discontinued eons ago.

  • Removing Adobe Gamma

    I have just installed a Spyder 3 Pro on my PC and couldnt find any uninstall for Adobe Gamma. The PC is running XP Pro (32 bit SP3) and I have CS4 and CS2 installed.
    To remove Adobe Gamma I took the following steps after I had installed the Spyder software but before calibrating:
    1. Removed the shortcuts to Adobe Gamma and Adobe Gamma Loader from the start-up folder.
    2. Removed Adobe Gamma Loader.exe and Adobe Gamma.cpl from the folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Calibration.
    There didnt appear to be any remove feature in the control panel, but the Gamma control panel now doesnt appear in the control panel and the PC reboots without any errors.
    Was this the correct procedure or was there a better way to do it?

    Thanks I wasnt sure if there was anything to clean out in the registry, but as it all appears to be working its probably best left alone.
    The calibration was close to what I had achieved with Adobe Gamma, but a little less saturated. This probably explains why prints usually came out less saturated than I was expecting the grey scale calibration was much better than I had achieved by eye.

  • How to remove Adobe Acrobat XI completely from computer

    I had/have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard installed on my computer. We wanted to see what additional services were available through XI.  We downloaded the trial version and when we were satisfied that we did not require that edition, we removed same through the control panel.  Now, PDF Maker no longer works, and the addon Tab only appears in WORD.  As well, when we try to download/open PDF documents from the internet, we are unable to do so.  How do I remove XI completely from my computer in order to allow PDF Maker to work again.  The error I receive is that the server is cannot be loaded.

    uninstall acrobat 9 and then run the acrobat cleaner:  http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    then reinstall acrobat 9.

  • I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for two years. I got a new printer and installed it although I did not remove my old printer from my computer. I used this program and my new printer for quite a few months, but today I deleted my old printer

    I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for along time now. When I first used the program I had a different printer than I have now. Although I changed printers I never removed the software from my old one. Now this was never a problem until today. When I choose a printer I still had option to use the old one but always chose my new HP Envy 5530 and Adobe never had a problem printing from that new printer. However today I decided to remove my old printer from my computer and now my Adobe cannot find my new printer.  How can I make it find the HP printer?

  • I can not remove Adobe reader form my computer. In my Add or Remove Programs file it says....

    that I can not remove the program. My computer got stuck on it and I had to do the end program option because it would not close out. I know that Adobe has been on my computer ever since I can remember. I honestly don't know what it is (Adobe Reader) and am very frustrated because I don't know weather getting rid of it (Adobe Reader) will cause problems on this computer or not. Please help cause I don't know what to do....I need it to opperate as it did before and with out upgrading it (free) or I can't use it and need to remove it. Sincerely me

    Hi 8ublessed,
    I will agree with Test Screen Name, there is very less information to figure out the root cause of the issue you are facing. If you want to remove Adobe Reader, please use the cleaner tool - http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html

  • Need to remove adobe premiere elements 8.0 from my computer

    need to delete adobe premiere elents from my computer and make sure there are no files in my registry please help

    gpark1954
    Uninstalling Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 from your computer using Control Panel/Programs does get the program uninstalled, but does not
    answer your question which included.
    make sure there are no files in my registry.
    And, it does not deactivate the program from your computer. Deactivation is not the same as uninstall.
    1. Open Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 to its Timeline workspace, then Help Menu/Deactivate. Close out of there.
    2. Assuming you are working on Windows 7, 8,  or 8.1 64 bit, go next to Control Panel/Programs, find Adobe Premiere Elements 8.0, and uninstall it.
    3. Download and install the free ccleaner and do a run through of the computer using its regular cleaner and its registry cleaner parts.
    CCleaner - Download
    4. After that is complete, use Run, type in regedit, and, in the Registry Editor, go to Edit Menu/Find
    In the Find dialog's Find what:, type in Adobe Premiere Elements 8, and do a Find, Delete, Find Next until there are no more Finds for that what you have typed into the Find what field.
    Remember if you are dealing with the registry here. If no experience in this area, then keep away from this and settle for deactivation, uninstall, and wherever the ccleaner has to offer, may not be 100%, but close to it.
    Please let us know the outcome.
    Thank you.

  • How to disable Adobe Gamma in Windows 7?

    I have a new PC running Windows 7 and a new monitor. I want to color-calibrate the monitor using Spyder3, as I've done in the past with Windows XP. I cannot, however, locate Adobe Gamma in the msconfig "Startup" folder on Windows 7 to de-activate it. Has it been eliminated? Can I run the calibration program without taking this step? Many thanks in advance.

    I'm loading CS5 (upgraded from CS3). It's the computer OS that I've had to remove it from before - and it doesn't appear in the Startup folder, unlike in Windows XP's system. (Or in the Control Panel, although there is a "Color Management" folder that lists color profiles I've downloaded from Epson when I downloaded my printer drivers for Windows 7).
    So I guess Windows 7 doesn't include it, and I am free to do my calibration. Adobe's tech support phone line is closed for the weekend so I am turning to you forum experts. There must be someone out there who has encountered this in setting up a new computer system and loading PS onto it. Thanks for the input from both you and John.
