After calibration I manually adjusted some of the monitor controls to get a better color match for my particular application. What happens the next time I calibrate the monitor?
The manual adjustments will be reset by the calibration process. In general it is not a good idea to manually adjust the monitor after calibration because it not only invalidates the calibration and ICC/ColorSync profile, but also means that the adjustments will be lost the next time the monitor is calibrated. If you still feel it is necessary to tweak the display after calibration, a much better approach is to create a new Target file based from the measurements of the display after it has been manually adjusted. That way the monitor will be automatically calibrated to that particular set of characteristics the next time it is calibrated. Use the Custom White Point tool to measure and set the white point and Intensity values.
