Hi,

I have a problem calibrating glossy MacBook display using EyeOne calibrator and software.

Calibration of MacBook results in very reddish colors when compared to calibrated mate 15" MBP (LED) and 17" MBP (Gen1), which are very similar when calibrated.

I found some ressources but none is offering any solution, for example here: http://photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=00KO4c

Did anyone find a way to calibrate properly?

Cheers
 
I am experiencing same problem as yours. I use spyder2 express calibrator. the color turns more redish and little blueish. you can read my post here: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/325122/
Do you mean that the matt screen has better calibrate result? If so, I am thinking replace the glossy with matte.

Yes, Matte screens on my MBP's are calibrating without problem and produce the output I would think is correct (At least they look very similar side by side).
