Hi Mehran94,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with Display on your ThinkPad T400.
We have verified the image and the issue is related to LCD panel, but I suggest you to check with reseating the LCD cable on both the side which is connected to the LCD panel and also to the system board.

Hope this helps.

  • Thin black bar appear in bottom right corner of firefox

    recently i noticed thin black bar appear in bottom right corner of firefox window.
    then i noticed thin black bar appear in button tooltip too.
    this bar gone when i start firefox in safe mode, so i decided to refresh firefox to delete addons and plugins, but it still there.
    then i tried to uninstall firefox, download and install a fresh one, same bar appear, gone when in safe mode, i didnt add any plugin or extension yet.
    i'll add images later, as i post this in safe mode.

    Any graphics issues flag that there might be an issue with extensions or graphics acceleration.
    Please take a look at these troubleshooting steps:

  • When I convert a Pages document to pdf black stripes appear on two of the images, how do I get rid of them?

    I've made a catalogue in Pages, but when I convert it to pdf two black horizontal dotted stripes appear on two of the images.
    The images are two rectangular figures I've put in filled with solid blue color. They're not there in the Pages, only when converting to pdf.
    How do I get rid of the stripes? I need to use the catalogue in pdf format to send out, but the stripes are very visible whatever I do.

    The solid blue figures are they just rectangular shapes with the color specified in the Color Picker?
    Or did you fill them with an image?

  • Black shapes appear in photoshop then the whole file messes up.. including (somehow) previous saves

    When using photoshop I sometimes come up with this issue:
    A random black shape will appear on my file and then the whole file will mess up. Even if I revert back to previous save (which was previously fine) there are lots of black squares on the file, the file has sometimes been flattened and there are also squares missing from the artwork. Any idea what causes this? Image below:

    This looks like the ongoing file corruption problem that is usually attributed to gaussian blur. I've had it several times on different macs and OS versions. Its VERY BAD. And I don't think anyone's got a solution (other than back up frequently).

  • Unselectable icons and menus (advertisements) appear on bottom of the TV screen

    Our 55" Toshiba LCD television develops a "distorted" sound after being on for 45 minutes. It started a year ago and would go almost 2 hours before distorting and has gotten worse. We thought it was our Denon soundbar and replaced it. All our components were running through the Toshiba television to the soundbar. Unfortunately after replacing the soundbar, we discovered that it was the television that caused the problem. We now run HDMI from our Comcast cable box to the television, but run the audio via optic cable direct to the soundbar.  Same with our Samsung BluRay player.  We are using a Logitec 650 universal remote and of course the Toshiba has to be loaded on the remote for on/off and input switching. Now when increasing the volume on the remote, it raises the soundbar volume AND the Toshiba television.  Is there a way to lock out the volume on the television?  If I load a "dummy" device into the Toshiba remote and do the volume lockout, will it stay locked out after cycling the television on and off? Thanks for any suggestions.

  • The options to delete, archive etc an email msg no longer appear at bottom of the MSG

    So, I can't move, archive or delete messages from my phone, though I can do so from gmail on my laptop

    Web pages can replace the context menu to their own version and suppress the regular context menu.
    You can set the <b>dom.event.contextmenu.enabled</b> pref to false on the <b>about:config</b> page to prevent web pages from modifying the right-click context menu.

  • Notes in the iPads fly, i can not open them immediately after pressing the notes a black screen appears and disappears

    notes in the iPads fly, I cannot open them immediately after pressing the notes a black screen appears and disappears

    Quick update, the duplicate of the comic-con episode downloaded succesfully, and so has the first episode of Supernatural season 8. Blue dots appear to their left in the library.
    All the Vampire Diaries episodes (except the bonus comic-con double) have vanished, but I paid for them !
    They're not anywhere on my harddrive either.
    Which is new by the way, this is a new MacbookPro, literally set it up today.
    So it would seem this is a case of purchased and pseudo-downloaded episodes that ended up beinge gobbled up by some iTunes black hole, leaving me with no money, and no episodes.
    Need help, confirmed.

  • Premiere Elements 7: share/export DV-PAL in FLV/QT/WMV, black bars on top/bottom

    During export (step "share", export for "PC" - sorry, if I use some wrong terms, got a german interface) of only DV-PAL video to FLV/QT/WMV there are always black bars on top/bottom of the video and the picture is wrong in aspect ratio. I can't help.
    I tried different resolutions (original 720x576, 502x402, 320x240) and, as only possible with QT/WMV, different pixel aspect ratios (PARs), even user-defined PARs and 'wrong' aspect ratios (like 512x402). No chance. (I think precise user-defined data like "1,094" is not possible, because results did not change anyhow and this value is shown as "1".) With e.g. QT, 640x512, PAR 1,067 there are black bars with 6 px each.
    My project settings must be correct I think: DV-PAL, 720x576, 4:3, 25 fps.
    DV-PAL- and MPEG-Export/Share is no problem.
    As a workaround I export DV-PAL and convert with XMediaRecode to FLV. But I want direct and clean export with PrEl. That's what I bought it for recently.
    I wonder why there are only NTSC-setting suggested in FLV-share. I have to change the size by myself.
    And I wonder why Wikipedia says PAR for DV-PAL is "1,0940" and Premiere says "1,067".
    I'm new to Premiere Elements 7 (although I got some experience with Premiere 5/6.5, FinalCut, Cinelerra ...) using Windows XP.

    I posted two videos on muvipix.com:
    WMV cable modem settings PrEl (without audio, fps like original)
    Strange: in VLC media player there are bars on the left and right (and slight faded bars on top/bottom - hope you can see) and in muvipix.com and Media Player Classic there are bars at top/bottom

    FLV (no resize, without audio, fps like original)
    black bars on top/bottom, but only slight in Media Player Classic

    I had to deactivate sound because this is Creative Commons stuff and I don't want to give credits. And I changed fps to "like original" because 30 fps as standard in PrEl is wrong. It's PAL here.
    Thanks for your efforts.

  • What does this icon mean and why does a black battery appear behind it?

    All of a sudden, since last night, an intermittently flashing black battery appears behind one of the menu bar icons. Unfortunately, I don't know what the original icon means! From right to left, I have the volume icon, the wireless connection strength icon, a telephone icon, (what I think is) an Ethernet icon, then this funny icon -- three horizontal black dots, with a thin vertical line and kind of an X running through them. (Can you tell I'm not a computer person? Anyway, can anyone interpret these signs for me? Inquiring minds would very much like to know, especially if something drastic is about to happen. TIA!

    Donna,
    If you used Setup Assistant, Mac OS X 10.3: Setup Assistant migration may transfer portable-only menu items to a desktop computer may explain what is happening and how to fix it.

  • A black bar appeared at the bottom of the new window after I drag a tab out.

    this is actually an issue back in the mavericks safari, but the problem was somehow solvable and was not appearing every time.
    after upgrading to Yosemite, this problem appears every time.
    The problem is : when I have several tabs, then I drag a tab out, which you can see the minimized window.
    After you release it, it will become a new window as expected and intended. BUT there will be a black bar underneath.
    In the Youtube website, you can see that the upper part of the site is actually being blocked by the toolbar.
    ( I had waited for several seconds to let the toolbar to get to its original position )
    Clearly the black bar at the bottom caused this problem.
    It's a very annoying issue.
    I am not sure if it's a problem of Yosemite or Safari. But back in to mavericks, the problem also existed.
    Is there anyone out there having the same problem?
    How to Fix it ?
    P.S.1 HOWEVER, if i right-clicked the tab and select "move tab to a new window", the problem DOES NOT exist.
    P.S.2 I am using Mac Book Air(13", Mid 2013),  OS X Yosemite  (10.10.2)

    In the App store window at the top click on Purchases. Your download progress is there. If the progress seems to have stalled, click on the pause button and then restart the download. It should pick up where it left off.

  • Aspect Ratio Problem (black bars on top and bottom in the preview window)

    I have iMovie 08 and I have been shooting video on my new Canon HF100. It appears that in iMovie preview window my 1920x1080 (and even the ones I bring in in 960x540) videos appear to be in wrong aspect ratio - they are stretched beyond 16:9 ratio horizontally. The problem persists if I export the movie through Quicktime - the videos are still stretched. In the preview window in iMovie I have the right 16:9 box but it has black bars on to and the bottom. The clips themselves in the time line seem to be the correct aspect ratio.

    Also I have found this on the export video screen which narrows it down a bit...
    Here's how the source tab of that screen looks...
    compared to the output tab, with the black bars that are my issue...
    So where did I go wrong here?

  • How do I enlarge a scanned slide in iPhoto?  It scanned fine but appears quite small in the middle of the page, surrounded by black.

    How do I enlarge a scanned slide that I have imported to iPhoto?  My Epson printer scanned it fine but I would like to make it larger, instead of having it appear small and in the middle of the screen, surrounded by black.

    Zoom into it. There's a slider at the bottom of the iPhoto Window.
    Next time, try scanning to a larger size.

  • Please help -- SHADOWS APPEAR as BLACK OUTLINES when I EXPORT to PDF

    Hi all,
    I have designed a product catalog in InDesign. I retouched product in PS and dropped an "outer glow" and "drop shadow" Layer Style onto the products and saved them with a transparent background in a .PSD format. The files were then Placed into the InDesign document.
    The pages print just as they appear when I print from InDesign, however, I would like to be able to email this document out to retailers, but when I Export as a PDF, the images with shadows appear as if they are stroked with a sloppy/irregular black line in place of the shadows...
    Please help me resolve.
    Could it be due to the compression?
    Thoughts? Alternatives?
    Thanks so much,

    Bob,
    I'm sorry for the delayed reply.
    Here is the catalog I designed.  If you flip through it, you will see that some of the t-shirts have this black outline in place of the "outer glow effect"
    I am using CS3.
    My workflow was this:
    Brought photo into PS > masked out background > deleted selected to Transparent background > Placed graphic in new layer over Tshirt image > Saved file as TIFF > Placed TIFF into InDesign document > Export InDesign document to PDF
    Thoughts?

  • Problem with the back camera in iPhone 4 (Black Shadow)

    Hi, I have a problem with the back camera. When turned on I can see a black shadow on one side and when I take the photo, appears in all the photos.
    I searched on the Internet to resolve this problem but I haven't been successful. A friend told me that maybe it is dirt that was introduced into the cover but I don't think It's true.
    The iPhone haven't dropped me for some quite time and don't crashing.
    Look here is a photo to show you how the black shadow looks like:
    Please, anyone know what the problem can be?

    It certainly does work.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Shadows appear on screen at bottom

    When I move away from the main screen, shadows appear across the bottom of the screen where the dock icons were. In some cases the shadows are dark and some are light, but the shadow is very annoying. I see that this can be changed on an iphone by renaming the Wallpaper Gradient files. Is there any way to correct this problem. It almost looks like screen burn.
    to correct this. It almost looks lke screen burn.

    So, are you saying:
    1. the preview sometimes does not show the pictures correctly or
    2. the preview does show the pictures correctly but the real print sometime not?
    if 1. check the picture "Layout" settings ("Picture Position" margin, etc.) in word. And try print from the preview window when you do see the correct result.
    Also, what is the OS and version, word version, and the document format (.doc, .docx)?
