Headless mini exhibiting strange display behaviour in VNC

Hi,
My mini has no monitor connected and I connect via VNC. The VNC services are provided by Apple Remote Desktop and I connect to the mini from my PowerBook with Chicken of the VNC, although the behaviour is the same no matter what VNC client I use.
When a VGA monitor is connected to the mini, even if the monitor is off, there are no problems. When I check the display preferences is shows the monitor that is attached.
When no monitor is connected I can connect to the mini and get the login screen, when I log in the display is then scrambled (like when the refresh rate is incorrect on a CRT), if I manage to log out from the session I see the login screen again without a problem.
The mini is running Tiger.
Has anyone had a similar problem, and are there any solutions?
Regards
Craig

That's what I had always believed. However my mini has been connected to a monitor to originally set it up, and to try and troubleshoot this problem.
When I boot it with the monitor attached I can change the resolutions but it doesn't seem to make any difference when I remove the monitor and go back to headless operation.
Do you think that by having a monitor connected previously it might cause this problem? It shouldn't in my opinion. In any case the way that you set up your mini would still have resulted in the copy of OSX using a monitor, even if it was the one from your other Mac.
Regardless, I had already decided that I will install OS X Server on the mini, so there is little point in me continuing to configure the current OS X installation. As soon as I have installed it I will post here again and let everyone know how it went! You will probably find that if I reinstalled OS X now it would solve the problem, but I'm sure there must be a way to resolve the problem without a reinstallation. This is after all a Macintosh!

LR5.2 softproofing: strange display behaviour

since upgrading from 4.4 to 5.2 I've noticed a strange behaviour when using softproofing in the develop module.
Whenever I switch between rendering intents or different icc profiles, the screen display changes back and forth like 'relative --> no-SP --> perceptual' or 'xx-icc-profile --> no-SP --> yy-icc-profile'. This makes it nearly impossible to judge the differences between RI or icc profiles.
In LR4.4 the switch was seamless between rendering intents or icc profiles.
Not sure what might be the culprit here...

Hello
I have also witnessed a semi-transparent rectangle, but I think mine was turquoise. It shows up somewhere in the fourth quadrant of my display during bootup, after my machine had frozen, and I had done a hard shutdown. I started observing these freezes and graphical glitches after updating to 10.5.2.
I would also like to know what is going on.

Strange display behaviour inputfields on screens

Hi,
I noticed strange behaviour with inputfields on screens. When a certain inputfield has a maximum length of 50 and a visible length of 50, it depends on the number of spaces whether the inputfield is fulled filled or not. When I have 50 characters, the inputfield is completely filled, but when a number of spaces is used the field is not filled completely although 50 characters are in there.
Any ideas how to solve this? Currently the users are confused as they think its possible to enter more data in the line but they cant as the maximum number of characters has been reached.
This behaviour is in 4.6B.
With regards,
Mike

Hello Mike,
It took a while to udnerstand your issue but I finally found two sap standard fields behaving both ways.
Case 1:
Transaction SE09 - Field user name - length 12 display length 12 - i tried putting 12 spaces or 12 lower case 'i' and it filled the entire vissible length.
Case 2:
Once you go inside the SE09 transaction , choose a request , in the properties tab you have this field 'Project' which is 20 char in length and vissible length also same.
I tried the same spaces and 'i's there and it only filled up to half of the vissible length.
I looked at the screen for both these elements I found some differences in the screen display attributes which you might like to give a try.
for user name : program RDDM0001 screen no : 220
for project : function group SCTSREQ screen 110
Hope this will fix your problem.

Very strange display behaviour

We have a Java application which is working fine in at least
3 dozen windows machines (98/2000/XP). Today we installed it on
a particuklar machine (W2K) and all we could see was a blank frame.
When we dragged the frame, the components got painted. Every time
a dialog opens, the same happens. Nothing is painted until the frame
is dragged. There is nothing particular about the computer. It is your
regular pentium IV running W2K.
Anybody experienced this before??

Hi,
we seem to have a similar problem with repainting or refreshing a swing app. It runs fine on some machines and takes around 2 minutes(!) on other machines to refresh the main window after loading and working on some files. It doesn't matter on these machines wether you click or drag or resize the window, it just takes time to refresh. I have tried to add a bunch of invalidate() validate repaint, disabled the acceleration of the video cards, nothing... when I look at the task manager, the cpu does nothing during this 2 minutes.
I am pulling my hair out and hope that the customer I have to see tomorrow has a 'compatible' PC. I am more than open to any suggestions...

KYF exhibits strange behaviour with decimals

Hi everybody,
a DEC-key figure (IOBJ maintenance: additional properties->BEx->decimal places: Nothing Defined) exhibits strange behaviour regarding the treatment of decimals.
When looking at the data in the cube (InfoCube maintenance->content) the value is 2,086.
In the query the result is 2.0900000000 (%).
Now comes the problem: in BPS (in the buffer) the value is 2,08. The system simply truncates the figure! This is the value which is also used in the FOX and produces the wrong result.
I need the system to sensibly round the values correctly to 2 decimals OR work with an additional decimal place. How can this be done?
Thanks for any input,
Martin

Hi,
In the manual planning, while designing the layout, there is a setting in data columns tab called decimals. You have to insert 2 under this. Then in the layout data will be displayed with 2 decimal places.
Hope this helps.

Force headless Mini to recognize main display?

My church has a Mac Mini mounted WAY up high in the ceiling trusses between two wide-format projectors. We use a Matrox Triple-Head-2-Go to combine the two projector's images into one double-wide display. Because of it's remote location, we ran a gigabit CAT6 cable to the Mini and control it remotely via VNC.
What I would LOVE to be able to do is to somehow force the Mini into "seeing" a main display on the HDMI port, and treat the Mini-Displayport that feeds the Triple-Head-2-Go as the secondary display, even though we don't have a physical display connected to the HDMI port. That way, we can VNC into the main display without effecting what's on the projectors.
Is there some way to do that in software? Or is there some kind of "dummy" HDMI dongle I can plug in that would make the Mini think there's a display connected to it?

Sorry, I guess I needed to provide more detail. I need to be able to VNC into the main account that's driving the output to the secondary monitor.
I'm using a software package called ProPresenter. I need it's main control panel on the primary monitor so it can run its output to the secondary monitor. Except that I won't actually have a physical monitor attached to serve as the primary monitor, but it's that primary "monitor" that I need to see when I VNC in.

Mac Mini Doesn't Display through Philips Tube HDTV

I have a Philips tube HDTV with a VGA connector in the back, and used the DVI-VGA connector that came with my new Mac Mini to connect. I don't have a computer monitor at home. The TV doesn't display anything.
So then I took the Mac Mini over to a friend's. He has a VGA monitor, and so he ran the Mac Mini through setup and set it to the lowest possible display settings. I came back here, rebooted and plugged it back in; still no display.
Then I tried this:
"First thing to try is to boot the mini into safe mode by holding down the shift key as it boots up. This should allow it to boot, and then give you access to the display preference pane to adjust the settings back to those that worked.
If that doesn't work, try disconnecting the TV, and rebooting the Mac with no display attached. Once it has fully booted and enough time has passed to allow the desktop to be displayed, reconnected the TV. This should force the mini to boot into a low-res mode that works with just about anything, then when you reconnect the display, either cause it to auto-sense the correct resolutions, or give you access to display preferences."
This didn't work either. Any suggestions?

Hi Alan,
Check your TV manual to see what resolutions your VGA/RGB connector on your TV will accept. Being a HDTV it is likely to be from 480p to at least 1080i.
You then set the resolution in your Display preference pane to 640x480 and you should get a picture on your TV. The trick is to set it when you can't see anything! Attaching to another device may not help because the Mac detects that device when you set the Display and will know its not that when attached again to your TV. When attached to your TV it is setting another resolution it thinks will work. It is clearly guessing the wrong screen resolution when you do connect it.
I overcame this situation myself using a VNC client. That requires you to have another computer you can use to control your Mac Mini via VNC. You can then access the Display pane via VNC and set the 640x480 resolution which will work.
For setting 1080i (and the VNC process) please see:
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060319073027371&query=1080i%2BMac %2BMini
I am guessing you can also use an S Video adapter - available from Apple - to connect to an S Video port your TV may also have. That won't help with the VGA connection though.
Hope this helps.

Wifi does not work correctly on iPad Mini w/ Retina display

I've found that Wifi does not work properly on the iPad mini w/ Retina display.
Some background: I own three iPads (iPad mini w/ retina display, iPad mini, and iPad 3rd gen), an iPod touch 5th gen, and a Macbook Air, and use them all frequently with my pocket Wifi router.
None of them exhibit any Wifi problems whatsoever except for my iPad mini w/ retina display.
Here are the details:
In the middle of using Wifi with my pocket Wifi router, the Wifi connection will abrubptly drop, then reconnect. After the Wifi reconnects, it is no longer able to connect to the internet (even though Wifi itself is connected).
Once the iPad mini w/ retina display's Wifi gets into this state, the following may or may not restore WiFi temporarily:
Restart the device
Reset network settings
Yet, even if connectevitiy is restored, the problem will happen again within minutes.
When the iPad mini w/ retina display gets into this state, the Wifi on my iPod touch, other iPads, and on my Macbook Air work perfectly fine, so I know the problem is not with my Wifi device or it's connection, but specifically with the iPad mini w/ retina display
Note:
The iPad mini w/ retina display never has any issues with my home or work Wifi networks. The problem only happens when connected to my pocket Wifi device. Yet, all of my other iOS devices and my MacBook Air work perfectly with my pocket Wifi device, therefore I know the problem is not with the pocket Wifi device, but with the iPad mini with retina display.
Solutions:
Resetting the iPad mini w/ retina display to factory settings does not solve the problem
Resetting network settings on the iPad mini w/ retina display does not solve the problem
I have even replaced my original iPad mini w/ retina and got a new one. Yet, the new device exhibits the exact same behavior as the original device.
Conclusion:
I know this is not a hardware problem (since it happened with both my original as well as replacement device).
I know this is not a problem with my pocket WiFi router, since it works perfectly with all of my other iOS devices and MacBook Air.
Therefore, this must be a software / firmware bug with the iPad mini w/ retina display. Apple will need to fix this in a future software update.
Has anyone else seen this problem?

I too have experienced this issue over the past two days... I have a 16gb ipad mini retina, for reference. I bought the device one week ago, and had not experience any issues at all until bringing my device to work. I logged into my work's enterprise level wireless network both yesterday and today, maintained normal wifi capabilities for 2-4 hours each day, and was then randomly dropped, both days. I tried hard resets, resetting my network settings, airplane mode, etc. Nothing has worked. I am still offline on my ipad mini retina.
My iPhone 5 is sitting right next to my iPad mini retina. The iPhone is currently connected to the same very network, and has been for the past two years. I have never lost connection on my iPhone's wifi, just my iPad mini retina.
This must be some kind of bug, as it does not sound like a hardware nor network issue.
Hopefully they fix this in 7.1.

Strange JTable behaviour - everything is highlighted

Hello all,
im experiencing some strange JTable behaviour, and im not so sure why. When i run my program, the JTable appears, but all the cells are highlighted in advance. Also, i can now only select one cell at a time. I have set myTable.setSelectionModeListSelectionModel.SINGLE_INTERVAL_SELECTION); myTable.setCellSelectionEnabled(true);and my renderer code is below. I call the renderer by using the setDefaultRenderer method with(Object.class,myRenderer).
I have also changed isCellEditable to return true. If i dont use Object.class, and try to use my own custom class, the JTable is not all highlighted, but it doesnt seem to use myRenderer, and when i click on the header of Column A, all cells from column B and beyond become highlight, which is not normal behaviour. I thought the colum you selected should be highlighted.
Sorry for the long post, i hope the above makes sense...this is really quite bizzare, and im not so sure why this is happening. Thanks for any advice you can give, regards, Rupz

Hi VV!
thanks for the reply - now the table isnt all highlight when loaded, but as for cell celection..thats a different matter. I did have myTable.setCellSelectionEnabled(true); but no, the cell behaviour is really, eally weird, quite hard to explain, but here goes.
If i try to select cell D1 and D2 - D1 is selected, D2, E2,F2 and so on become selected. If i try to add D3 to the mix, the entire row 3 is selected, and as soon as i let go of the mouse button, the entire table except row 1 gets selected. really really weird. Below is my tableModel and what i do to the table. Thanks for your help,

Strange viewing behaviour on score page view on Logic 7.2.0 on MacBookPro

I recorded some sequences in Logic 7.2.0 on my MacBookPro and, seeing them in page view mode, I get a strange viewing behaviour: the staffs continue going straight on overshooting the "white delimited page zone". If I try to zoom out I can't obtain the "more pages view" option normally obtained.
If I reopen this song on the logic 7.2.0 situated in my G5 all is fine. Why?
Any idea?
Thanks

Guys, I think this problem has to do with the scale parameter of the instrument set being translated incorrectly on Intel/MPB (quite possibly affecting even the "ALL" instrument set, which has no adjustable parameters). Now, I don't have an Intel Mac or MBP, but based on my recent experiences in PPC and similar problems, plus what I've read here, I think I might be on to something...
I'm going to suggest that you guys who are having problems with staves going off the page to do the following test:
1) Open one of your problematic songs and view the score editor where the off-the-page staves are displayed
2) If you're using the "ALL" instrument set, read on. If not, go to #3 below.
ALL Instrument Set: if you're using this just to see a preliminary version of your score, close the score window, select ALL, and open the score editor. This forces the creation of a new instrument set. Do these staves go off the page? If not, you're good to go. But if they do go off the page...
a) go to your printer settings and make sure that you have valid settings there. This includes the printer type, page size, and scaling. If they're set to default values (like "most recent printer"), be sure to select an actual printer on your system.
b) open the Instrument Set parameters for the set that was created just before. Set the scale parameter to 200%, then make it 50%, then make it 100%. If my theory is correct, your music should now stay on the page.
3) If you're using a custom instrument set repeat steps a) and b) above. See if that clears up the problem.
I'd be curious to know if any of the above fixes the problem for you. Again, it's just a theory, but maybe it has legs...
Best,

IPad mini acting strange. Apps open and close randomly. Any ideas?

My iPad mini acts strange. Apps will randomly open and close and I have no control over it. I have reset it to factory and started all over but it is still doing it. Any ideas on what I should do?

If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless... Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data.

My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
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.

I have just bought an ipad mini with ret.display, I wish to link up my Mac Book Pro (10.6.8 system) to iCloud. In system preferences there is no iCloud icon to select. How do I get my MacBook updated to accept iCloud.

See -> Mavericks System Requirements.
Most of us are running Mavericks with no problems - others seem to be having various problems (if you check out the Mavericks forum). But I would recommend that you have a current backup whichever way you go.

Hello, since nobdy else has replied...
Long shot, but...
Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there.

Your only option is to sell the iPad and then buy the new one.
