Hi appleaday,
If you're experiencing a pink tint on your display after changing the resolution or connection method, it's possible that the operating system is automatically applying a color profile that is causing the issue. Here's how you can try to resolve it:
- Check System Preferences: Go to System Preferences > Displays > Color. Look for any color profiles that are selected. If you see one that seems to be causing the pink tint, try selecting a different one or selecting "None" if available.
- Reset Color Profiles: You can try resetting the color profiles to their default settings. To do this, go to System Preferences > Displays > Color, then hold down the Option key and click the "Calibrate" button. This will bring up a hidden option to reset the color profiles.
- Check External Display Settings: If you're using an external display, check the display's settings menu to see if there are any color adjustment options. Make sure that any color adjustments are set to default or neutral settings.
- Hardware Calibration: If you've hardware-calibrated your display, ensure that the calibration settings are still active and haven't been overwritten by software settings. Refer to the instructions provided with your calibration device to ensure that the calibration is properly applied.
- Reconnect the Display: Sometimes, simply disconnecting and reconnecting the display can resolve issues with color profiles. Try unplugging the display from your computer, waiting a few moments, and then plugging it back in.
- Update Graphics Drivers: Make sure that your graphics drivers are up to date. Sometimes, outdated or incompatible graphics drivers can cause issues with color profiles and display calibration.
If you've tried these steps and are still experiencing the pink tint or issues with color profiles, you may need to consult with the manufacturer of your display or seek assistance from Apple support for further troubleshooting.
Good luck!
