Bottom third of screen blurred out regardless of max/min after update

After upgrade, bottom 1/3 of screen is unusable/blurred out regardless of maximizing or minimizing screen. Have resinstalled Firefox, but same problem (have also repeatedly opened/closed program, rebooted). Not having any problem w/ Chrome or IE. HELP??!!

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

Ios7 lock screen blurs out my ICE contact info on my wallpaper

if there are notifications pending (such as txts or unread emails). This is a problem if I am in an accident and I have a PIN setup on my phone. No one will be able to see who to contact without access to my phone.
On ios6, when you got new emails, you would still be able to see your lock screen wallpaper and any info on it.
I think with ios7, by blurring out the wallpaper it could be dangerous or a hazard if a users wallpaper has important info but a bystander wont be able to see it.

keep hearing a lot of people noting their lockscreen blurring issue is mostly due to notificaitons. But, if so, this is the easiest to fix, because you DO NOT have to display notifcations on the lockscreen. I believe there is an option that you can toggle ON/OFF, for displaying on the lockscreen.
not sure if this will handle EVERYTHING that might blur the lockscreen; but think you can keep any notifications from displaying there.
just set all of your apps to "DO NOT INCLUDE" in notifications.
having said that, I am NOT sure how important it is for you to get notifications; but, if your health is the issue, I would think it would be more important to display your lockscreen image than to get notifications. You might be able to simply use option to remove from the lockscreen; but still get them in the notifications swipe down.
hope this helps!

iPad running slow? How to speed up a slow iPad
http://appletoolbox.com/2012/07/ipad-running-slow-how-to-speed-up-a-slow-ipad/
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

No sound when watching full-screen movies or TV shows in iTunes after update to 11.1

After updating to iTunes 11.1, any full-screen movies or TV shows I try to play on my Thunderbolt display with my MacBook Pro have no audio. If I plug in speakers or headphones, I get audio, just not from the Thunderbolt display. Audio works fine from MBP.
Weird thing is, if I plug in other speakers or headphones and then *unplug* them, the Thunderbolt display's speakers start working again. Every time you start a new show or movie, though, you have to do this again after the full-screen video opens on the display.
Really weird. I obviously suspect i has something to do with the 11.1 update to iTunes 'cause audio works just fine through the display for iTunes music and other content and for the web and all other apps and games, whether they're in full-screen mode or not.
Keep checking Software Update hoping to see that "1" badge pop up on the App Store, lol.
Anyone else experienced this?

Thanks allen222! I've been banging my head against this issue as well - glad to hear it's fixed in Mavericks - was planning to upgrade shortly.

Skype out on Mac bad quality after update to Version 7.9 (746)

Hey, I've been using skype out on a subscription calling from US to US or Canada, for over 2 years now. After the latest update (on 7/1 I believe) skype out on my computer became unusable... everyone complains that they can't hear me properly. But when I call the same person with my cell phone(on the same WIFI) they hear me perfectly... same headphones too. Anyone else dealing with this? I'm thinking of cancelling my skype subscription and getting an unlimited Canada/USA cell phone package! regards,

Wow, lots of replys so fast, sorry i took so long to get back to you all.
Well thanks for the welcome.
When I say "grayed out" i mean that the botton is there but faded.. get me? Its like an option that is no longer available. e.g. while going thru normal options like FILE or EDIT and the like the options that are not available are "grayed out" or faded. And yes I am using Software Update from the blue Apple menu.
I am not well versed with the Mac, it's my girlfriend's Mac, I know a bit about it but I try not to mess with it too much.
I didnt know that I was able to update any other way (System Preferences > Software Update > Update Software) I will try this and see what I can find. But I would guess that all those settings are at DEFAULT.Is there an option to make it look for updates automatically on a set date/time or everyday/week/month? I was only trying to update recently cuz I heard that some Mac viruses were loose and I want to update her Mac. I hope to get this fixed soon.

Screen is dim on my Mac Mini after installing 10.6.3 update

Has anyone else encountered this problem? My Mac Mini was running just fine until I installed 10.6.3. After the reboot the display came up very dim. The icons and overall display are noticeably darker and playing a flash video (Hulu) results in an image that can barely be seen because it is nearly black. This is both with a direct DVI connection as well as through a DVI to VGA adapter. The same symptom is displayed on my ViewSonic monitor as well as my Sony HD TV (through the VGA port).
Mac OS X 10.6.3
2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Intel GMA 950 built-in video card (64 MB of memory)
1024 x 768 @ 60Hz, 32 bit color
There isn't much to change in System Preferences -> Display and I tried adjusting the contrast (System Preferences -> Universal Access -> Enhance Contrast) but nothing seems to help.
Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Keaton

Cant hear very well out of the Iphone headset after update

I did the 2.0 update,everything is working great other than I noticed I can barely hear anyone out of the headset. Bluetooth seems fine. Anyone have this problem?

This has zero to do with iPhones in general and going to another country. Plenty of people do it everyday.
Your case is isolated to either something wrong with your specific phone, or the powerjack your macbook was plugged into or combination or some other factor.

How do I get my iPhone 3GS out of the boot loop after updating to 6.1.2?

I've tried to restore my phone with a pre-downloaded ispw file. However, as I try to use the restore file, my iPhone simply restarts its self, cancelling the update completely. What do I do? Please help!!!!

My 4s phone has gone black and just have an apple sitting on the screen. Have restore it 3 times after updating it and now will not work

Have a 4S after udpating software I can no longer use it. Black scrren with apple log is all I have. Have restore it 3 times and it worked then had another small update and this is now what I am left with.

Hey there janDkot1,
It sounds like you are unable to boot your phone completely. I recommend resetting the phone with this process:
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the phone still will not boot, I would next put it into recovery mode and restore the phone again with the steps in this article:

MBP to TV using a cable - TV screen greys out after 10-15 mins

Hi there, I am looking for some assistance to solve the following issue that I cannot seem to resolve,
I have my Macbook Pro (OS 10.8.5) hooked up to my 42' Philips TV (Model 42PFL560AH) using Belkin Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Cable. I then go to displays settings on my Mac and mirror displays and I then have audio and video on the TV and everything is working fine.
The problem I have is if I stream video from the web, the TV screen 'greys out' every 10-15 mins or so and I then have to go to my display settings on my Macbook Pro and change the refresh rate. I change between PAL & NTSC or visa versa and I am then good for another 10-15mins.
I do not know if this problem is Mac or TV model related.
Any help or suggestion is appreciated as this is doing my head in.
Regards,
Celtictiger

Soundls like it is working. Try dragging a window on the MBP to the edge of the screen and see if it appears on the TV.
There are two ways to set up the TV one is to mirror the MBP display and the other is to be an extension of the MBP's screen.
You change the settings in System Preference->Display

My Q10 Screen blacks out & touch screen does not respond randomly

Hi Gang. Hoping someone can help... I've got a Q10 (only accessory is a screen scratch film) and recently the problem with the screen randomly going black has untenably increased after updating to the new OS.
Key facts: T
he ONLY two ways the screen will come back is:
A: I restart by either removing the battery or pressing the power&mute button for 8 secs (and currently its now going black as soon as the hub initialises) OR
B: It <always> comes back when I plug in the USB cable connected to either power or pc and this seems to job it back to normality for a hour or so.
The phone is still operating when this may happen: for one example in the middle of a phone call (usually when i activate speaker phone) the screen will go black whilst still talking fine… but if i try and end the call/deactivate the speaker phone/do anything I hear the error beeps when i inevitably start mashing the whole keypad - but the screen will not reappear or read <any> finger gestures or singular power button pressing.
Btw. The phone passed all tests on the BBVirtualExpert App.
I have just installed the new OS 10.3.1.1779 (but it was happening before)
Anyone have any ideas? Anything to try or should I repair or get a new one. Thanks in Advance.

I have the exact same problem. Can't find a fix or answers anywhere

Capacity maxed out on ipad after updating to iOS6

capacity maxed out as "Other" on ipad after updating to iOS6. How do I fix?

You can try this, but it appears as though the download went bad and you might very well have to restore your iPad to get rid of the "Other",
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
"Other" consist of non media content .... App documents and files, contacts, calendar entries, Safari bookmarks and history, notes, email messages and so on. It should not be bloating your iPad storage.

When I try to drag and drop to combine events in iPhoto, the drag accelerates out of control when it reaches the top or bottom of the screen. How can I slow it down?

from iphoto Help
Album overview
A photo album in iPhoto is just like one you would create with printed photos: It’s a collection of photos you select from your library and arrange in the order you want.
You can create photo albums to:
Focus on a particular subject, such as your favorite nature photos
Group pictures that you want to send to a friend, post on a webpage, or burn to a CD or DVD
Gather a decade of anniversary photos
iPhoto has two kinds of photo albums:
Standard photo albums: You create these albums (B, shown below) by selecting particular photos. You can add new photos by dragging them to the album (or using the Add To button), and you can remove photos at any time. All adding and removing is done manually; iPhoto doesn’t update standard albums automatically as you import new photos.
Smart Albums: iPhoto creates these albums for you, based on criteria your specify. iPhoto then updates Smart Albums (A, shown above) for you as your library changes. For example, you could create a Smart Album containing:
Photos of specific people, such as your family members. As you import new photos, iPhoto uses Faces to detect your family members, and automatically adds new photos of them to the Smart Album (after you’ve confirmed the matches in Faces).
All the photos of your daughter taken on school field trips in third grade. Use Faces (to name your daughter) and keywords (to mark certain photos or events as “field trips”) to help specify the photos you want iPhoto to place in that Smart Album.
Only photos taken with a specific camera, or photos matching other Exchangeable Image File (EXIF) information.
You can make as many albums as you like, and you can include the same photo in several albums without making multiple copies of it.
After you create an album, such as “Australia Adventures,” it appears in your Source list below Albums.
In full-screen view, the album appears as a stack of photos below Albums.
To further organize your library, you can group several albums (along with slideshows and projects) into a folder. For example, you could create a folder containing several years of birthday albums or a collection of albums with photos of your camping trips.
To create a folder, see “Create a folder in the Source list and move items into it” in “Customize the Source list”.
Folders appear only in the Source list, not in full-screen view.
Note: A photo album is different from a photo book, which is a collection of photos you create to get professionally printed and bound. See this topic: Photo book overview.
