Crash when second display attached

I'm using Aperture in this configuration:
Aperture 1.1.2
MacBook Pro 15" (with external monitor)
OS X 10.4.7
Aperture is randomly crashing when the second external display is enabled and Aperture is configured to use it. I can crash Aperture fairly easily, although the crashes are random. If the second display is enabled but not being used by Aperture, I do not have crashes.
Questions:
- Has anyone else seen this issue?
- How do I fix it?
Thanks
MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

I am not experiencing crashes, but I am noticing interference on the monitors when Aperture is running using 2 monitor mode. As I move from picture to picture, or zoom in or out of pictures, I see small blue and red squares all over the screen ... as if something was writing to the video buffer. The problem does not manifest itself at any time when Aperture is not running.

    That is not an Apple or OS X issue, I'd suggest contacting the modem manufacturer to see what the issue might be.

  • Word 365 crashes when opening an attachment in Notes

    Word 365 crashes when opening an attachment in Notes.  I have tried a quick repair and an online repair.  I have uninstalled Office 365 and reinstalled it.  I have tried opening WINWORD in safe mode. 

    So the attachment itself is OK, and Word can open it successfully on the desktop. In this case, issue tends to be more on the Lotus Notes side.
    We don't have a test environment for this currently, I'd suggest you check the Lotus Notes forum and see if other customers are having similar issues and any solutions out there.
    On the Word side, you can check the event logs to see if there is anything useful there.

  • Problems when cinema display attached to PowerBook

    I have a new PowerBook G4 (15" stretch) with OS 10.4.5. I also have a new 20" Apple cinema display. When the display is attached to the PowerBook, I've noticed a host of problems, including: HP LaserJet 1022 (new) prints only about 50% of the time--requires restart to get it working; USB mouse and keyboard attached to the display freeze (although I can still move the pointer with the trackpad on the PowerBook)--requires restart to get them working.
    The printer is plugged directly into the PowerBook's USB port. Nothing else besides the keyboard/mouse are plugged into the display's USB ports.
    I've reset the power manager several times; I don't let the computer go to sleep, although I do let the screens go dark after 15 minutes. I've tried all the usual printer fixes short of resetting the print system.
    The PowerBook and printer seem to work fine w/out the display; the printer works fine on another PowerBook.
    PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4) RAM = 1.5 GB

    I am experiencing the same problem with a Samsung Aquos 52" connected thorough a Onkyo receiver/amplifier. The connection is DVI to HDMI to Onkyo amplifier and HDMI-HDMI to the TV. The main 23" Cinema Display flashes during turning on an off of both of TV and the amplifier and even when the TV is off and the amplifier is on, unless you restart the computer, it would keep detecting a second display, the only solution so far was to unattach the second display DVI to HDMI cable from the computer. Otherwise, several freezes occur after several flashes of the cinema display and eventually either the dock o the whole screen would freeze...Anyone knows how to avoid this issue? Btw, my id card is NVIDIA GeForce 6600.

  • Crazy crazy crazy! Airport loses internet when second monitor attached!

    Can this really be happening? I decided to try using a second monitor attaching via a mini dvi -dvi converter. Several attempts to get it recognised by the iMac without any success. Scoured the internet groups to see that very many (and I mean very many) others had this problem.
    Solved it by swapping my dvi-I lead for a dvi-D lead. The difference is that the DVI-I lead has fewer pins than the DVI-D lead and the iMac mini dvi socked supplies a DVI-D signal. Phew!
    So--pleased with myself at surmounting this I fired up Final Cut Pro, dragged the canvas window to the second monitor and had to play around with the resolution setting to get a stable playing of the timeline.
    Decided to go on online and see if I was alone on this.
    NO INTERNET CONNECTION!!!
    30 mins later decided to unplug the second monitor (Philips 200) and got back my inet connection.
    Tried the routine again and sure enough each time the second monitor was connected I lost the Airport connection!
    Is it possible that the proximity of the second monitor fouls the wireless signal?
    Or what?

    So far no one has either claimed the same problem or offered a possible explanation.
    As I said this loss of internet connection when 2nd monitor is connected is unbelievably odd.
    It sounds like another case of EMI (Electromagnetic interference). I believe this is at the root of all these weird Airport or wireless problems. Interestingly enough many of these anomalies are exhibited on the newer generation Macs. Different materials were used, shielding could have been compromised either for cost cutting or by design error. Regardless I'm sure Apple is aware, unfortunately those who purchased these machines may be in the worse case, left with hard wiring for reliable internet and or network connections.......sorry.....

    '''eshbach''', Did you try updating the Trusteer Rapport software and did it fix the problem with Firefox crashing when downloading a file or saving a page?
    '''mike_berry413''',
    If you don't need the Trusteer Rapport software, you can remove it. If you need the software, you can try updating it or else temporarily disable it to see if that stops the crashes.

  • Outlook crashes when trying to attach file. Excel crashes when trying to save. (Possibly Connected)

    A colleague is trying to attach a file to an email by clicking the attachment icon and it crashes, however it does not crash when you drag and drop.
    When they try to save an excel file by going New File > Save as, it crashes, but when you right click in a folder or desktop and create new excel and then work on it and save, it works.
    I already uninstalled, install compatibility pack again, reinstall, updated, disable all add-ons and ran them both in safe mode and it still crashes. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    I want to boot without having a display attached. post is stuck in b2. If I attach hdmi cable to display boots fine.
    As far as I can recall, there is no way to stop the POST sequence from searching for either IGD or PEG graphics and still proceed to boot an OS. Graphics will be required to set up the UEFI/BIOS settings, boot device, and other housekeeping chores anyway. How are you going to load the chipset and other drivers? Once in the UEFI/BIOS and the graphics settings are disabled, it 'might' work as you want. Only way to tell if it is in the OS then would be the HDD LED or the mainboard DeBug LED showing AA, A0, or the CPU temperature depending on the UEFI/BIOS version.

  • MBP changing color when thunderbolt display attached

    So I have the last gen 17" mbp running 10.8.2.  the color on the display looks great except when I attach my new thudnerbolt dislpay.  The color temp of the MBP display goes really cool (blue) when the thunderbolt display is attached.  Whenever I unplug the display, it goes back to normal.  Anyone else seen this or have any idea what is going on?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Bought a TB display to use with my 2011 mbp last night.  Hate that it doesn't have a power button.
    Really hate that the usb implementation seems quite broken.  I spend 95% of my time in Windows, and while the display functions, usb doesn't really.  The apple usb keyboard i bought sticks, and my dell mouse hangs frequently.  both are plugged into the display, but they work fine when plugged into the laptop directly. I also have a jabra usb headset plugged into the display.
    I have noticed I can worsen the situation by actually using the display hardware.  If I start a call using the headset, the keyboard and mouse become even worse.  If I start using the facetime hd camera on the display, they become horribly erratic.
    Apple definitely has some work to do.  They are billing this is a docking solution and it is completely unusable as such right now.

  • Computer nosiy when second display dimmed

    OK, I know this sounds really odd but I'm glad I resolved it.
    I have the 20" imac and an old 17" Apple Studio Display as an extended desktop just to the left of the imac. Well when I got it the comptuer was very quiet, and over the last day or two it was very noise and I could not figure out why. Sounded very much like fan noise or vibrating plastic. So I was kind of disapointed thinking once the computer got settled in and used for a week or so that it would no longer be quiet.
    So it happens to be bright in my office today and I open the display preference to turn up the brightness on my second monitor. To my surprise as soon as I do this the noise is gone. I can sit there and play with the brightness slider and make the noise come and go at will.
    My old screen is not that bright anyway so I'll just leave it at full brigtness. I expect if I add some space between the displays this could solve it as well, but I like them side by side.
    Not a probelm for me now, but just out of curiosity does anyone have ideas what is behind the noise. The noise volume increases as the screen goes from full brightness to about 2/3 brightness. From that point down the volume of the noise is pretty steady.

    this sounds very odd, and I have no answer. I have an older 20" dell hooked up via DVI to MINI DVI, no issues with fan getting louder or not.

    Hello Freytag,
    I would be concerned too if my MacBook Pro was getting recurring kernel panics when using an external display. 
    First, I recommend troubleshooting the connection with the external display.  This article is for internal and external displays, so you can skip any steps referring to the internal display.  I recommend reviewing the section titled "No video or no signal, image distortion, 'snow,' or flickering" in the article below.  I recommend reviewing the full article, but the following steps specifically stands out to me for the situation you are experiencing:
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
    You can find the full article here:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
    If you continue expereince kernel panics, I recommend following the steps in the section titled "Troubleshooting a recurring kernel panic" in the article below to help isolate and troubleshoot this issue:
    OS X: When your computer spontaneously restarts or displays "Your computer restarted because of a problem."

  • T510 crashing with second display

    Hi have a T510, W7, 4g Ram, conected to Dell display. When I play a video from a website the computer crashes. It goes black, the sound is still on, parts of the screen comes back after a while but you can't use the mouse and in the end you have to hard shut it down.  The videos work fine without the display and I've tried another dispay with the same results. Any fixes or advice.

    Try updating the video drivers and the flash player and see if it helps. Also might want to try different browsers and see...
