Calibrating the macbook


Recommended Posts

Hi

I am having a very tough time calibrating my macbook (not macbook pro). The glossy screen plus the

enormous vertical gradient of color is nauseating. Does anyone here have any experience in calibrating

the macbook. I would have bought one of the colorimeters in the market but I fear that might not work

here. Any ideas?

I had no luck in calibration my first generation Core 2 Duo Macbook. The calibration itself

worked, but the very small color gammut of the display cannot display the resulting profile,

resulting in plain wrong colors in the blues. I used the Spyder 2 device with either the Sypder

Pro Software or ColorEyes (iirc), both produced the same effect. I had to give up.

 

My recommendation: For non critical work use the display unprofiled, for critical work use an

external display.
