Color management on a Mac (OT)

[Denise & Shimon Mor <dchatfield@earthlink.net>]

I've been tweaking my monitor (an Apple 17" Studio Display) and came
across a question.  In the monitor control panel, when I go through the
calibrations to create a ColorSync profile for the monitor, I get a
little confused regarding the white point.
It first asks what is the current white point and then asks what white
point I would like.  I chose 5000K for both.  But then when I play with
the little button on the monitor itself, I found a place where I can set
the white point (and it was showing 9300K after I set 5000K in the
control panel).  So, in order to get 5000K does it have to be set in the
monitor itself and in the software?
Am I doing this correctly?
Thanks.
