iMac display colors wrong after update to 10.13.1

Have a 27" late 2012 iMac which I updated to 10.13.1

My display colors are off, the screen looks dull and sort of purple. So I used my Spyder calibration tool, it changed a little but the colors are not correct. Any idea?

iMac, macOS Sierra (10.12.4), late 2012 27 inch iMac, 24 GB

Update 11/20: I heard back from Datacolor/Spyder. My Spyder 3 is no longer supported, I have to buy a Spyder 5 😟


They gave me a 25% discount, and they will give me a code to extend my Adobe CC subscription for 90 days free. If anyone else has this device and needs to update, you should get the same offer. Make sure you contact Datacolor/Spyder support and ask, the savings are significant.


All in all, I think this is fair. So we know the Spyder 3 is not compatible with High Sierra.


Thanks to all on this forum who assisted me!

Try this:


1) Go to system preferences (Gear Icon)

2) Go to displays.

3) Click color

4) Click calibrate and calibrate your color.

If this doesn't work then try to reinstall macOS. (Link Below)
