sRGB IEC61966-2.1 Color Profile and Photoshop 24 25.2.0

[NB, colourmanagement net]

I just did a clean install on a new Mac Mini, so Photoshop's just been loaded.

For years, as I recall, the sRGB variant in the "recommended" folder installed by Adobe has been called "sRGB IEC61966-2.1" - now in my "recommended:" folder there's just one sRGB and that's: "sRGB Color Space Profile.icm"

Anyone else seeing this?

We've been telling users to be careful to use "sRGB IEC61966-2.1" but now it seems Adobe may not be installing it.

That profile seems to have the other name anyway.

This is probably just the "internal" and "external" profile name, which has confused people always.

@c.pfaffenbichler interesting that you spotted that and - how strange, the Mac finder doesn’t agree with the Colorsync Utility on the 'external' name

- when I open it in the Colorsync Utility it reads like this (as did yours)

something wrong at Apple!

 

In the arguably more sophisticated Colorthink Pro 4 beta I see this

(which reports the external (finder) name correctly 😞

same in Colorthink Pro 3, reports the external (finder) name correctly 

@D Fosse you're right about mismatching of the internal and external names, but as @c.pfaffenbichler discovered the Apple Colorsync Utility fails to reveal the mismatch - actually showing the external name incorrectly!

Has there been any development on this? 

I'm running LR and PS on an M1 studio with Benq monitor calibrated using xrite I1 and the BenqPaletteMaster.

Opening the same file in LR DEV mode into PS with working space in Prophoto, the images appears different.

both apps in respective windows on the same single screen.

Adobe is telling me that SRG IEC61966.2.1 needs to be in the profile folder but the folder is only showing "sRGB Color Space Profile.icm"

Adobe claims this srgb profile is responsible for the two apps showing the same iamge dfifferently even though I'm working in Prophoto with a calibrated display profile.
