iMac - screen Calibration two iMacs

Hello everyone

Someone has advice or tips on how to use the utility of calibration of apples own monitor? I am trying to get two iMacs look even.

We have two iMacs at work, one is a 27 inch (end 2013) and the other is a brand new 27 inch Retina. Both are 3.2 GHz Intel core i5, and the two are running OSX 10.11.2. We do not work for printing (for the moment anyway) but I don't want the two screens to look the same, that we work together on the same projects. We cannot extend to a material standard, so I tried to use the Apple monitor calibration utility. In addition, I find it really hard to use, (give me a real headache squinting at the thing tiny apple!) it produces completely different results.

I realize that the new is a Retina display and also has a different graphics card, (an older AMD Radeon R9 M380, the other has a NVIDIA GeForce GT M 755) and so they are different, but I thought that calibration should at least have their similar but they are miles! I have the color of background on a dark - gray middle on both, but they look just so different.

I tried a demo of SuperCal but came out shocking! He made the model of the retina really dark and yellow!

Anyone has any advice or know one better material another utility that could produce better results?

Kind regards

David

First of all, I wouldn't touch the settings of the retina. Your best chance is to play with the settings on the older iMac. The problem is the iMac of the retina is so much better, it will be impossible to match the two.

  • How to divide the screen into two parts in order to see the two different parts of the same file? [Suggestion] [Android]

    I am Brazilian and I use Adobe Acrobat Reader DC a lot. I would suggest an implementation of features present in the PC, I missed a lot of things on Android, which is 'New window' or something like that, like split the screen into two parts in order to see the two different parts of the same file.

    For smartphones, its use is restricted, but for tablets, it can be really useful, because it allows the display of two distinct points of the same file,

    I have reduced considerably the use of paper using this application, however, I need to navigate the file always pick up a few points seen earlier, which causes a lot of discomfort compared to printed documents.

    This is a suggestion, but I would like it to be considered.

    Thank you for your request. We have taken note of the same and must try to integrate it into one of our future releases.

    Thank you.

I'm looking for help on doing a full calibration of my monitor 27 "5 k, it produces the same range of colors, brightness and contrast that is my pro printer. My printer is a Canon Pixma Pro 9500 Mark II. I've already preset it for Abobe 1998. I use the same on my Nikon D800. What systems are there for me to calibrate this new monitor? I saw the X-Rite on site B & H, but never bought. Never actually, I calibrated my old NEC monitor on my pc Windows-based... I knew how to adjust everything to get what I wanted off the printer. I'm tired of everything that setting. I want to know what I see on my screen, that's what print off my printer. Any help that you guys and girls can give me will be greatly appreciated.

  • Satellite A200 - black screen with two beeps

    Date: October 17, 2009

    I have Toshiba Satellite laptop computer * model A200 PSAFCA-01400J *. I am facing a problem of * completely black screen * (I can't see any image either). It happened twice more than the screen wouldn't turn on by moving the mouse or the touchpad. To turn on the screen I had to restart the computer. The screen worked well until it turns off again. Since it does not turn on even after I restarted my computer several times. I noticed that my * Windows vista home premium * load properly I can hear audio that indicates that I am ready to open a session. I also noticed the sound signal after slipping my finger on the sensor attesting that I connected successfully, but the screen remains black.

    When I turn on my computer, I noticed that it sounds two beeps, first beep is short and the second beep is relatively long. I tested the cover closing the cover switch and noticed that my computer goes into sleep mode and by opening the cover that Eve turns off and my computer turns on again; but the screen remains black. One of my friends suggested that the backlight of the screen inverter or the lid switch is defective. Can someone tell me what could be the problem and what do the two beep codes?

    Thank you

    Hi mate,

    Normally the beep codes at the start of average that it s something wrong with the hardware of your laptop. As Akuma said, maybe the graphics card or RAM must be replaced or other parts too.

    Have you already tried to connect an external monitor? You can see a picture on this subject?
    I don't know but maybe what he s m only internal something wrong with the monitor.

    In any case, I think you should contact a service provider for help. Technicians can check the laptop and fix it for you.

  • Split screen in two and purple lines with yellow screen?

    So, I was watching a YouTube video and my screen started flashing all crazy. So I turned it and turn it back on and now my screen is yellow with purple lines and there are like two screens because it is split in the Middle goes horizontal. Sometimes I turn it on and it works very well for about 5 minutes then it starts flashing and goes back to all these things. I would like to safe mode, but I do not see Scripture because that its all messed up. I also try changing the screen resolution setting, but it won't let me for some reason any. Here's what my screen looks like http://s1353.beta.photobucket.com/user/zachman12356/media/untitled.png.html?sort=3&o=0

    It is certainly not a question of Windows. You have probably one
    problem with one of these three things:

    1. the monitor

    2. the video card

    3. the cable connecting the monitor and video card.

    First try the cable and make sure that it is closely related to the time
    ends.

    If this is not it, see if you can borrow a monitor from a friend and try
    instead of yours. If this solves the problem, you need a new
    monitor.
    If this solves the problem, it is probably the video card. But
    before you replace the video card, open the case and make sure that it is
    sitting in his niche.

  • touch screen has two lines in the upper part

    I just bought a R5-571 of Best Buy. It's a two in one, but there's an ine doulbe which crosses the top of the screen. However, my initial was that it served a purpose and there was some setting that was originally there, but I couldn't find anything. I took a screenshot, but the lines do not appear in the screenshot. If you use the browser Chrome location would be right in the middle of the tabs down through the entire screen or about 3 mm high and the lines are about 1 mm.

    I would like to take it back to Bestbuy and Exchange.

  • Can I have different screen on two monitors background images?

    I use two monitors side-by-side.

    There is a supply virtually unlimited background images to display, including the pre-made themes and slideshows, but no way I can find to have different images on each monitor.

    Am I missing something?

    Hello

    Windows 7 doesn't have this built-in capability. There are third-party software multi-screen solutions.

    I also use two monitors and I think a better ioption is to use two screens wallpaper. It is an image large enough to cover both monitors. For example, I have two monitors set in 1680 x 1050 and I use a screen background image which is 3360 x 1050 and set the tile option. It's a cool effect.

    There are a lot of websites that offer these dual monitor wallpapers. Just use your favorite search engine and look for "wallpaper bi-ecrans".

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you for using Windows 7

  • SX2210T-touch screen with two monitors feature

    Solution found by the user ES128 for touch dual monitor.
    I've just set up a configuration of dual monitor with a SX2210T and a ST2220T on Windows 7. I got the touch features work correctly on both. As a first step, affecting either translated the entry only on the primary (the one that has been in primary school at the time), but after playing around with the settings I got work like I wanted. I tried several things, but I think that the right thing to do is go in the settings of the Tablet PC from the Control Panel window and press the Setup button next to "configure your pen and touch poster» There you will be asked to each touch screen and you're done. 2-point multitouch works on each monitor, but not both simultaneously. At one point, I went that one would be regarded as primary, and which caused the hand on a single monitor to take account of the other and vice versa. Following the same steps above again not straightened it.

    Screen touch troubleshooting.
    * Disconnect the 2nd monitor of the PC. Restart the PC so that it only displays one monitor in Device Manager. Depending on your operating system, do the following: -.
    SX2210T Driver (Windows 7 only)
    SX2210T-Touch Application
    SX2210T-Touch Cam
    SX2210T facial recognition Application (no not necessary, only if you want)
    * Test the touch screen on the single monitor feature.
