Brightness different on left- and right-hand sides

My iBook's display has suddenly gone darker/dimmer on my left-hand side. I can tell because it's noticeably dimmer, and when I drag a photo from left to right, the photo's brightness noticeably changes. Any ideas as to possible cause? (I guess I'll be visiting the store tomorrow; sigh.)

My iBook is the same, and its only 3 weeks old! But
its such a slight difference i dont really care. Im
gonna wait 11 months before my warrenty expires then
replace it.. lol
I have a theory for what causes this though. When
your iBook heats up, its mostly on the left side.
Then when you close your iBook the lcd basically
cooks over that side. Cause its ALWAYS the left side
that is darker, so there must be something happening
to that side that isnt happening on the right. The
heat from the warm hard drive is all i can think
of.
iBook g4 1.33ghz
  Mac OS X (10.4.4)   My iBook reminds me
of a big fat iPod! =D
At 30-40 percent, it wasn't slight enough a difference. It really did give me a headache.
Interesting theory. I usually put the thing to sleep with the LCD up, so I don't think it applies in my case.

  • LED display, bright edges, specially left and right

    I have a mbp 5.1 late 2008 model received jan 2009.
    My display/screen is becoming brighter and brighter at the left and right edges.
    If i look at a black screen, the left/right edges are not black but getting brighter than the rest of the screen.
    As this computer is primarily for serious photo processing, this is really annoying and if it gets worse its a computer who cant be used at all.
    Any ideas ? Any trips/trix to conquer the problem....or are the display pure and simply defect (great...just outside 2 years complaint period)

    Hello Dominic,
    It is not normal.

  • Having two main windows on left hand side and Right hand side of the form

    Hi
    I have a requirement in SMARTFORM  where the required output will be a single form design, approximately A3 in size, split by invoice details on the left side and delivery details on the right side. 
      As the Invoice details and the deilvery details will have multiple line items
    I am planning to create two MAIN window one for the Invoice on the Left hand side and the other for the  delivery on the Right hand side of the form.,
    Will this work or is there any other solution to do the same .
    Regards
    Senthil

    No, it's not possible to have 2 main windows. It will let you activate the form but will run into dump.
    If invoice details on left and delivery details on right are one on one then you can create one table with separate columns for each having all the details in one internal table. If not there could be other work arounds depending on your requirement.

  • Dead Space on left and right side

    Is there any way to get rid of the dead space on the left and right hand sides? Thanks.

    Hi there,
    you can't completely get rid of the dead-space on the left and on the right. But you can increase the content width thus reducing the dead space.
    Select the page in iWeb, Open the Inspector, Go to the Page tab (second from the left) and select Layout, increase the number displaying under Content width (everything up to 950 should be alright but note that for some templates it doesn't work so good 'cause they weren't built to be increased... I hope they change that somewhen...)

  • How to create buttons that control left and right scroll?

    I would like to know if there is a way to create two buttons, each on the left and right hand sides of the screen, that would control the horizontal (x-axis) scroll of my website.  I've built two image buttons that link to anchors located on the left and righthand edges of the page, but this does not achieve the funtionality I'm looking for.  I would like each button to scroll incrementally every time it is pressed. 
    Is this possible in Muse?

    There are no facing pages in Pages 5.

  • Wrongly transformed the sentences of left and right paragraphs into one sentence in PDF files to txt files by Acrobat 9 Pro

    I found that the when transforming PDF files into TXT files by Acrobat 9 Pro, the Acrobat will wrongly transform the sentences of the left hand side and right hand side paragraphs into one sentence, while the correct format should be the later sentence follows the former sentence in each paragraph.
    An example PDF is : http://cardiovascres.oxfordjournals.org/content/cardiovascres/45/1/200.full.pdf
    Is there any solution for this problem? Or should I use other software (or other version of Acrobat) to solve the problem? Thank you.

    PDF is not a word processor file format.
    It has no "styles", "format", "layout", "columns", "rows", "tables", etc.
    PDF writers paint the content to the canvas that is the PDF page.
    Depending on what was used and how it operates this painting can be like a paint by numbers affair.
    ISO 32000-1:2008, the ISO standard for PDF explains it all.
    So, when exporting to text from your PDF the progression is left to right, top down.
    Remember, PDF has no awareness of "columns". What we see is our construct not PDF's.
    What you and I see as two columns with a specific read order is our imposition.
    What is on the PDF page is simply a line of text characters.
    That is how it is with all versions of Acrobat. Applications can only make use of what the file format supports eh.
    What to do?
    Master content in a logical hierarchy in the authoring file.   
    Always use the build-in Headings for Headings.     
    Use the built-in "table" feature.  
    Use a PDF writer process that is compliant with the ISO standard and that supports proper output of Tagged PDF.   
    A well-formed Tagged PDF will export properly.  
    Two key design considerations for Tagged PDF are:  
    (1)  Support Accessible PDF   
    (2)  Support Export of PDF page content. 
    What constitutes a "well-formed tagged PDF?"
    This would be a PDF that is ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant.
    Be well...

    Hi Anubha,
    Same problem occurred when converted into word file.
    I convert the PDF into txt as I need to use the txt format for running some analyses (and I have thousands of such PDF).
    However, I found the same problem even if I use the original PDF file, so I am seeking the solution.
    Actually the PDF can be converted to any format if the problem can be solved! Thank you.

  • Display resolution is different left and right sides

    Hi, my HP G42 laptop now has a different display resolution on the left and right sides. The left half seems to have less resolution than the right side, the right side looks like it's in HD, the left side looks washed out. I'm not sure if it is a hardware issue or a setting/software issue. The first time it appeared was after a windows 7 update was completed and installed, I'm not sure if that was just a coincidence. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. It works but is very annoying to look at.
    Thank you,
    Ray

    Hi Ray_M,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are having a problem with two different resolutions on each half of your screen. The easiest way to determine where the problem lies is to connect it to an external monitor. If the image is normal then we know it is an issue with the display screen but if the issue occurs on the external monitor then we know it is a problem with the drivers or the video card itself.
    What is the product number for your g42? There are a number of different models in that series.

  • TS3274 Email display problem: My email only display the list of emails and a preview (first two lines of the body of the mail). If one click on the message it only shows the heading on the right hand side of the screen, but not the content.

    My email only display the list of mails in my in box with a preview of the first two lines of the body of the message. When one clicks on the message to open it, only the header is displayed in the right hand side of the screen - the actual message is missing. This happens on older mail previously downloaded that use to work properly as well. Any idea how to fix this?

    Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I would like to transfer old reel-to-reel tapes to an iMac. There are different recordings on the left and right channel of the tapes. When I connect the tape deck to the Mac, I get one recording on the left, the other on the right speaker. What to do?

    I was about to transfer some music from a reel-to-reel machione to my Mac. There are different sound recordings on the left and right channels. When I connect with RCA cables and Y-connector, I hear one recording from the left speaker, another from the right side. How do I record only one side, but hear it from both speakers?
    Detlef

    You don't say what end, or connectors are plugged into what. I'm assuming the RCA connectors are on the reel-to-reel end. Since the tape has two different mono recordings, one on each track, you of course only want one at a time during playback. Otherwise, the Mac (or any recording setup) can only treat it as a stereo recording with the standard Left-Right tracks.
    1)  There are multiple ways to connect different types of cables to get a mono signal down to a stereo output at the Mac. Here's one way.
    2) Plug any RCA cable (single cable or stereo) into only the right or left RCA output of the reel-to-reel.
    3) On the other end of the RCA cable, plug in an adapter like this. That will feed the single RCA output into a mono 1/8" plug.
    4) Then plug that adapter into this. That turns the 1/8" mono signal into a "stereo" output with the same single track audio being fed to the Mac on both the left and right channels.
    5) Record either the left or right output of the reel-to-reel. Rewind the tape and switch the RCA connector on the reel-to-reel to the right channel (if you started with the left) and record that mono signal as stereo.
    Or, avoid all of this hardware mumbo-jumbo in the first place and do this:
    1) Record the audio just the way you have it. Two different recordings, one on each channel.
    2) Copy the audio recording to a new name and open it in your editor.
    3) Highlight the left track and copy/paste it into the right track. Presto! Mono recording of the left track on both channels. Save the recording.
    4) Repeat, only copy/pasting the right track into the left track and save the second recording.

    Thanks. I don't know why it wouldn't just go back there when I tried putting it back? I didn't change anything, so I assumed the new "default" was over on the left. Glad it was a simple solution after all.
