    Maybe I'm not understanding, but how could a single calibrator calibrate two displays at once? It can only read one at a time, and since each display has different characteristics, there seems no point in attempting to use one calibration on another.

    • What?nb
    • auto said a shortcoming of his Spyder is that it can only calibrate one display at a time. How can any calibrator calibrate more than one at a time?monospaced
    • pango mentioned having to use different profiles for each display, but that seems necessary since each display is differentmonospaced
    • Oh, I see. Yeah, I thought you were suggesting that you need multiple calibrators for multiple monitors.nb
    • Nah. Just trying to figure out why one model won't work on multiple displays. Seems like they all would work.monospaced
    • make sure you name your new color profile for each monitor properly. include monitor name in the profile name.pango
    • I don't even have a calibrator! What should I get? Will it work on an iMac where brightness adjust auto and contrast can't be changed at all?monospaced
    • what kind of work you do on your monitor?pango
