EyeOne - xrite Display & iMac

Hi;

I've purchased an iMac - having used a MBP for the past couple of years. When i tried installing my EyeOne - Xrite Display I get an error message stating " You can't open the application because POwerPC applications are no longer supported"
Can anyone explain this to me in layman's terms & what do I do NOW?????

Go to Eye1's website and see if there's an update for Lion, or you'll have to purchase a new version? Seems rather logical.

Either the installer or software is using Power PC code that cannot run under Lion. You need a version written to work on Intel Macs. I looked at their site and there are several pieces of software there. Unfortunately they have similar names and I am not sure which one you need. I suggest you contact the company, tell them what device and software you currently have and that you need software for an intel based Mac.

IIRC, the i1 Display 2 puck is not all that great on LED or wide gamut monitors.

Maybe it would be wise to upgrade your hardware and software.
