Yellow cast to everything in CS4

I’m working my way through a tutorial book, and find that the suggested color changes make the photos look horrible! When I finally loaded a B&W photo, it had a definite yellow cast to it. It’s strong — almost like a daugerrotype (please excuse the spelling) I’m pretty sure I have the same cast in the color photos — when I erase them with a white eraser, they look yellow.

If I sample the erased by white areas, I get 255 in all RGB channels. If I sample a midtone in a B&W photo, I get RGB values within 1 of each other.

It’s not JUST the monitor — the B&W’s look fine in Bridge and in Photoshop Elements. They just look yellow in Photoshop CS4

I’ve fooled extensively with the Edit/color Settings/ stuff to no avail. I can’t make the yellow go away.

Any ideas why it’s there in the first place, and only in PS CS4?

Thanks

Corrupt monitor profile. Recalibrate. Also, try resetting your Photoshop preferences first.

Correct spelling: daguerreotype (Hint: Firefox has a spell checker.)
