chris7519 Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 I've got the retail install of SL up and running, however I'm having issues with the colors. It's a strange issue to boot. When first booting up and getting the blue screen before loading the desktop, it goes from blue to purple. Once I'm in the desktop for the first time, everything is over saturated in red. I figured I would create a color profile, however, when I opened up Finder I see all my apps are displayed with normal colors. If I replace them with what's on the dock, it stays there with the correct colors. I figured I could just replace everything, but I notice other small issues. For instance, the blue when highlighting something in a dropdown list is an unbearable purple. Some times when Safari launches, the issue is on webpages and other times it's not. I have graphics support with my 9600M GT via DSDT patch and I verified it's working correctly by loading up 10.5.8 and all the colors are fine. Anyone have a solution for this or run into a similar issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris7519 Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 LOL...well ignore the colors in the pic, they apparently are adjusted correctly when viewing them in a color profile that works. I'm in 10.5.8 right now and that pic looks completely normal! Is there any way to export a color profile??? [update] Well you can export a .icc file and copy your settings, but it didn't fix anything for me. This is a really strange issue. When I load Adobe RGB profile, most colors are corrected and when I look at the pic I posted, everything looks correct. However, there's still issues with Finder and colors related to items on the dock that haven't been switched out (ie, I remove it from the dock and drag it from the applications folder). I have no idea what's going on but it's hurting my eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
