Colors are appearing dull in Illustrator (27.3.1) on one system and fine on another, WHY?

[shreyas18971266]

Hi, I have recently switched to Macbook Air M2. I was using Macbook Air M1 and transferred my file to new laptop. I have downloaded the same version of illustrator in new laptop, but the color are appearing dull and muted in both RGB & CMYK mode, as compared to the previous system. I am attaching an example.

I have looked out for everything, color management, bridge setting etc. all are same in the both system. But I am not able to figure why is this issue happening?

Please view comparatively, 1a & 1b ; 2a &2b.

Please Help!

Hey,

Check that the display settings for the airbooks match go System Settings> Display

Hello @shreyas18971266,

We understand that encountering technical issues can be frustrating. Would you mind trying to recalibrate the display for sRGB (https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/calibrate-your-display-mchlp1109/mac) on both of your mac computers and then restarting to check if it helps?

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,

Anubhav
