Pantone huey calibration

[ukglyn]

Has anyone used 1 of these with any success?:shrug: I have had 1 & have had nothing but trouble with it from the start, all my images have a yellow/orange cast to them & some colours have literally changed from the colours I know they really are, like a bright orange car that appears bright cherry red

Have took the software off & am very dissapointed with it, have spent 2 days trying to get it right.:bang:

Yeah I used one before getting my sypder3.
I found turning the automatic light adjust off much better.
Also try recalibrating in the dark, with just the monitor on.
Also make sure you dont have Adobe Gamma installed, because that will mess around with your profile.

I use it with no problem, as ukglyn says you must disable Adobe gamma you cant have two calibration programs running at the same time, they will fight each other and the end result will be rubbish

I use Pantone Huey with no problem but it is on a Mac.
The main issue with Pantone on a Mac is at startup it does not always start,this is a well known problem.There is a fix for this if anyone reads this and are not aware of it.
1) Find Huey program in your Applications folder.
2) Mine was in, Library/Application Support/Huey.
3)Just copy the HueyAmbient icon and place it in your Login items under System preferences/Accounts.
Huey should now start everytime.
Hope you can understand this ok.
