Hi,

I received a Spyder 3 Pro kit and calibrated both my monitors, it work quite well and images do look much better, they were a little on the reddish side before.

Do I need to change photoshop and DPP to use the new profile or just leave them alone?

Thanks

Haven't loaded DPP in a while but Photoshop always displays through your monitor profile, and that's what the Spyder changed.

The Spyder generated a new monitor profile and made it the active monitor profile for your system. Photoshop will simply pick that up since it will always display through whatever display profile the OS tells it is active.
