MacBook Pro and 23" Cinema Display Colour Problem

[cweeks]

first post ... please be nice.

i have a 15" macbook pro and a 23" cinema display.

went to system prefs and selected monitor ... thought i put them both on adobe rgb ...

but the colours look completely different.

on the display they look a bit more red than on the macbook's display?

any hints?

thanks!!!!!

Adobe RGB is not intended for use with either of your displays.

Check Show profiles for this display only.

Adobe RGB disappears as an option.

yes, it does.

i guess it's time to buy the calibration equipment, no?

thanks for the response, mate!

What's out of calibration? Have you tried the defaults? Obviously, a mechanized calibration would be most reliable. However, you can visually calibrate your monitor. The Displays preferences pane will guide you through the process. If you are not satisfied with the results, you can always revert to what you have now.
