Problem
: I receive a communications error message when making some adjustments.
Solution
:
•
Try connecting a USB cable between one of the upstream ports on the monitor and the host PC. In
the Display Configuration dialog, select the USB connection to the monitor.
•
Communications with the display is not completely reliable on some video graphics adapter cards.
If you are using a DisplayPort connection to the monitor, try using a DVI video connection instead if
possible.
Problem (
ÿ
Windows)
: I receive the following error message when changing the Picture Mode:
“Error: Unable to save the ICC profile. The file appears to be in use by another application.”
Solution
:
•
This issue may occur if there are multiple users assigned to the machine. An ICC profile created by a
user can normally only be updated and replaced by that user, or an administrator. Starting with Windows
Vista, even if you are currently an Administrator, applications do not normally allow full administrative
privileges by default.
You can either delete the current ICC profile manually (in which case Windows will ask for administrative
level credentials or permissions), or you can re-run MultiProfiler “as Administrator” by right-clicking the
application icon and selecting “Run as administrator”. This process needs to be done once each time
the user who created the last ICC profile for the display is changed.
•
This issue may also occur if another application is currently using the ICC profile. For example if the
Windows Advanced Display Settings control panel is open, the ICC profile may be locked. Be sure to
close any applications that may be using the profile.
•
If you are not an administrator on the machine, try changing the folder permissions on the following
folder to allow write and read access: “C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color”
•
Make sure that no applications that may be using the display color profile are currently open. This
may include such applications as Firefox.
Problem (
ÿ
Windows)
: The ICC profile generated by MultiProfiler does not appear to be correctly installed
and recognized in Windows.
Solution
:
•
This problem may occur especially when using a multi-monitor configuration. In some cases
updating the video driver may fix this issue.
•
The profile can be manually assigned if necessary as follows:
1. In the Windows
Display Properties
control panel, select the
Settings
tab and click
Advanced
.
2. Select the
Color Management
tab on the
Display Properties
dialog.
3. Find the color profile generated by SpectraView and use
Set As
Default
.
•
A more advanced control panel is available from Microsoft for Windows XP which is much more
reliable for checking the assigned monitor profile. On the www.microsoft.com website, search for “Color
Control Panel Applet”.
