I am unable to select an icc profile for a MacBook Pro M4 screen

Hi, i'm unable to select a icc profile on the new macbook Pro M4. How can i calibrate the internal screen by adding an icc profil made with my X-Rite color calibrator. icc files cannot be selected (grey) from the import menu of the monitor preferences.

sRGB Color profile not showing on display settings I'm using a Macbook pro M2 Pro chip, and when I check the available color profiles in System Settings > Displays, I don't see sRGB IEC61966-2.1 listed. does macOS include this profile by default, or do I need to download and install it manually? If so, where can I find the correct ICC file? However, when I checked my friend's MacBook, their settings show "Color Profile" instead of "Presets," and sRGB IEC61966-2.1 is available for selection.

How do I install an .icc profile on my Mac Studio Ultra / Studio Display? So I just purchased a Studio Display. The current preset is "Apple Display (P3-600 nits). On my other system, a 2019 Mac Pro with a 5k x 2k display, the preset is set to "Generic RGB Profile". How do I install the Generic RGB Profile so that I can use it on the Studio Display? I'm running it on a Mac Studio Ultra. Thank you!

Color profile change if laptop is open or closed Hello, I'm quite new to MacOS, I'm using and external monitor BenQ SW270C connect to my Air with USB-C port. I've notice that if I keep open the laptop screen the color balance is more or less ok (warn) If I close the laptop (I'm not using two monitor) to use only the BenQ, color balance suddenly shift to very cold level of colours. Because I'm working with photo editing tools I do not want MacOS to interfere with monitor color balance. How could I prevent MacOS to interfere with color profile? My Displays settings.

macOS includes the ColorSync Utility, a tool for managing ICC profiles:

Open ColorSync Utility: Use Spotlight (Cmd + Space) to search and open it.

View Installed Profiles: Navigate to the "Profiles" tab to see all installed profiles.

Assign Profiles to Devices: Under the "Devices" tab, select a device and assign a different profile if needed.

Hope this steps will resolve the issue ,if you have any further queries let me know.
