Optimizing Profile and getting errors or program is crashing

Optimizing a profile is a great way to improve its performance further through optimization. You can perform this optimization step as many times as you wish and the profile performance will get incrementally better.  This option only works with profiles built with ColorMunki.

If you are optimizing a previously created profile and you are getting an error message, the first thing to check is that the profile is a ColorMunki generated profile.  Also, the profile that you are optimizing must be created with the same version of the software.  For instance, if you are currently running the version 1.0.4 of the ColorMunki software but the version you created this profile with was running 1.0.2 you will get an error.  If you are unsure of the version of the software it is best to recreate a new profile and then try to optimize it.   

If you have selected an imagine that generated a test chart but then after time went by you tried to read the wrong chart for that image, you may see the following error as well.

 

 

This is due to the software is expecting one test chart to be read but is getting values for an entirely different chart.  To prevent this it may be best to print a new chart each time you optimize allow the software to populate the correct set of patches for the image selected.
