Spyder X2 Elite calibration tutorial – Macs & laptops

Spyder X2 Elite

This tutorial discusses using the Spyder X2 Elite to calibrate screens which have no adjustability other than their brightness. This includes all Mac screens, and all laptops. It might also include cheap desktop screens with no buttons or menus to control their colour; and the new breed of all-in-one PCs that try to look like Macs.

(To the best of my knowledge, these instructions also work for the Spyder X2 Ultra.)
