Colour Displaying Differently in Photoshop and Illustrator

Ever since I updated my computer, Photoshop and Illustrator display colour differently.  When I create a pattern in Illustrator and open it in Photoshop, the colour appears saturated.  The same happens when I export the file.  What am I doing wrong?

I do the bulk of my work in Illustrator, and need to be able to see correct colours.

 

Thanks,

Anna

Is the document color profile the same as the Working RGB in your color settings? 

Check in Illustrator: Edit > Assign Profile.

This is what those settings are

That looks correct. How do you export the files, as psd or jpeg?

If you export them as png, they get converted to RGB and Illustrator does not save a color profile with png files.

Is you monitor calibrated to sRGB?
