HT5313 Second Display Problem after Update v10.7.5

I just updated my MacBook Pro (Late 2011) and the new OS 10.7.5 is not recognizing my second display (VGA connected emachines 19''). I have restarted, changed the resolution, and tried many things, but the display that was working perfectly two hours ago now does not work. Help pls

Hi There,
I suggested the solution on the link you refer (to solve this type of problem with gfxCardStatus)... unfortunately this solution did not solve the problem when upgrading to the 10.7.5, namely the new "supplemental update" that was released on the 4th of October (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1599).
Here is a simple procedure I followed and solved the problem for me... this worked by chance after starting following the instructions in: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19979833#19979833.
Restart your machine and, when the machine is in booting press "alt" (left option) to show a booting menu.
Select "recovery mode" (do this with the external display connected)
In the recovery mode you can test if the external display is detected (it should work normally)
Do not do anything in the recovery mode... simply Restart you machine (now in normal mode)
It should work normally now... (at least it worked for me)
I think this has to do with a kind of "reset" on the external displays configurations... But I still do not fully understand why this happened.
I hope this helps some people! Cheers!

Apple cinema Display problem after update

I had a similar problem to lain Maclreud
Immediately after updating to 10.4.11 and rebooting the toparea on my cinema display went dim and I saw the 2 short, one lon blinks on my power display LED
I didn't try it on another computer yet or try to change my power source but I may need a new backlight card as well. Please post if you have had similar problems after updating and suggest possible solutions.

Have you tried the Command-Option-P-R keys to reset the PRAM? (Maybe the upgrade has messed up the display settings?)

Display problems after update

I recently updated- on balance things went ok-
How ever for some odd reason something is causing KDE (3.5) to behave oddly-
I used to have a app in the kde control panel that'd let me fine tune settings (fonts and display size for instance)- I see the app but not how to fine tune the settings other than for gamma and color-
I can use the nvidia-tools to do some of that- however something is causing my directories to display incorrectly meening that when double click on say- /home/(username here)/ I have a big fat square block where files used to be- and any window moving over that gets fairly well corupted.
I can sort of work around this by changing from"icon view"- to info list view.
I'm not sure how to fix this
Anyway any kind of direction at all about what's causing this problem is great.

I have the same problem. It happened right after I installed the graphics update. When the computer restarted, my screen went crazy. I couldn't see anything, just a screen full of horizontal lines. After restarting a couple of times it seemed to go away, but it has begun to happen again recently. although not as bad yet. I am not saying it's not a logic board issue, but it does seem funny that more than one person is experiencing the same type of problem after the graphics update. I guess it's time to take a trip to the apple store.

Font display problem after updating to 10.5.5

After updating to 10.5.5, I have an identical font problem on two different machines: an iMac and a Macbook. The problem concerns font display on the screen and only occurs when viewing PDF files using Leopard's built-in facilities. So the problem shows up in Preview and in Safari, but not when viewing the same file in Adobe Acrobat. (There's also no problem with the same font in MS Word.)
The problem: Many italic characters in Times New Roman Italic display with (more or less) vertical strokes are rendered very thin. The result is a bizarre, distracting effect. The result is particularly noticeable with lowercase "o", but is widespread. I don't have the same problem with plain Times. It's possible other fonts have this too -- I haven't checked them all -- but most don't.
The problem appears to be related to anti-aliasing. When I turn this off in Preview, the display is of course not pretty, but the problem is otherwise entirely gone. (Times New Roman text and Times text now look basically the same.)
I've tried obvious things along the way: reinstalling the font from the system disk, flushing the font cache, etc. even reinstalling the 10.5.5 combo update. Nothing helps.
Any suggestions?
(Here is a PDF file on the web that has this problem for me -- in case you want to check whether you have it too: http://www.latrobe.edu.au/linguistics/LaTrobePapersinLinguistics/Vol%2009/07Popo vic.pdf. Nothing special about this file, though. Any PDF in Times New Roman with italics has the problem for me.)

V.K. --
Boy, I'm hoping Kurt will come in here,
but the page linked shows up perfect on my iMac.
I have yet to update to 10.5.5. I'm at 10.5.4.
But for you guys, what the h*ll?
I'll be back after I update.
(Boy, if only the Powers That Be knew how much we go through being helpers on these boards, eh???

Display problem after update XP service pack 2

Can anyone advice me on the following :
I installed the XP service 2 (Xp pro) on my Satellite Pro 2100 and ever since I have at the right side of the display a black border that is not used of about 2 cm wide.
I've tried installing the latest nvidia geforce driver but that didn't solve the problem.
Before the update my resolution was put to 1024x768 32 bit colors, but now I can only put it to 969 x 768 ? Never heard of this resolution before but now my screen is no longer jumping from left to right.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks already,
pLippo

Hi pLippo,
it seems the display driver is not compatible to the Service Pack 2. I understand your issue in this way, you have this problem after installing the Service Pack and not before.
In my opinion you could download and install the latest display driver from toshiba (https://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com) under Support and Download page.
If this doesn't solve the problem you could wait until toshiba releases a new display driver or you uninstall the service pack 2.

Bluetooth problem after update to lollipop

Hi,I've recently updated my 6503 to Lollipop.Everything went smoothly and is working fine, except 2 issues - one solved, second NOT. FIRST (solved) - phone after update waked up and logged to 2G network, with no data transmission (despite it was turned ON). What was strange - my operator's network appeared in 'available network list' as separate 3 NETWORKS ( 2g, 3g and LTE) Switching manually to LTE solved it - now phone is switching between technologies automatically, data transmission is working fine. SECOND AND NOT SOLVED: I'm using the hands-free system built in my car ( mitsubishi lancer, 2008 ) . After update, phone failed to establish connection with it, even hands-free system remained as 'associated device'. OK ... I erased hands-free system from phone, as well as phone from car's memory. Paired devices again - starting procedure from car's side. Nothing better. Erased and paired starting from phone side. Nothing better.What I've observed more: phone after try to establish connection , phone in eye blink looses it. On list of available services of hands-free system (in phone menu ofc) , only 'phone sound' appears, while -as I remember but i'm not sure- before update more (2 or 3) services were detected . PLEASE HEEELP !

Re: Bluetooth problem after update to lollipop As above post, I am also experiencing problems with bluetooth on my Z2:- Phone connection is OK if Bluetooth is turned on the phone for " car is ready". Then I can make and receive calls.
- Playing music on bluetooth does not work after Lollipop 5.0.2 update on my car head unit. Previously connected and able to stream music on 4.4.4 Kit Kat with no issues, looking on web this is not a new issue with Bluetooth connection issues to devices since Lollipop came out so what the **bleep** is going on? I purposely bought a Sony TV, Car Head Unit and Soundbar to ensure everything worked together now the head unit that I only had fiitted in February does not connect which cost me £249!!! No issues connecting to TV or Soundbar but on HU it tries to connect then disconnects and BT Audio Icon on HU display greys out although phone is connected and icon highlighted as connected. I have cleared cache, unpaired and paired again, reinstalled 5.0.2 again through wifi instead of OTA but still the same. Car device: Sony XAV-602BTAndroid version 5.0.2Version: 23.1.A.0.726

Force close the App Store app and reset the iPad. No data will be lost when you reset the device.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Photoshop CS2 problems after updating to 10.4.5.?

Anybody notice Photoshop CS problems after updating to 10.4.5.?

Hello I had the same problem
I found the following information that helped me.....
Program errors occur when software conflicts arise due to an updated operating system. You can resolve these errors when you also update the driver software that causes the conflict or when you update the operating system. Program errors can also occur because of a damaged Photoshop preference file, or if there is a problem with a phone or internet connection. The Apple Disk Utility fixes file system errors that can also cause program errors.
Error "Could not complete your request..." or "Could not create a new document..." (Photoshop CS2 on Mac OS X v10.4)
Issue
Adobe Photoshop CS2 returns one of the following error messages:
"Could not complete your request because of a program error" when you try to open a file.
"Could not create a new document because of a program error" when you try to create a new file.
Solution 1:
Install the most recent update to Mac OS.
Solution 2:
Re-create your preferences files.
1. Hold CommandOptionShift when you start Photoshop.
2. Click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
Solution 3:
Disconnect your Internet connection.
To disconnect your Internet connection, do one of the following:
If you are connected to the Internet via a telephone modem, then disconnect from the modem.
If you are connected to the Internet via cable modem or DSL, then disconnect the ethernet cable from your computer.
Solution 4:
Use a disk repair utility.
Restart your Mac in Single User mode and run fsck -fy . For more information about the fsck command, please visit the Apple website at http:/docs.info.apple.comarticle.html?artnum=106214 .
Solution 5:
Ensure that all your drivers are compatible with Mac OS X v10.4.
Determine if your printer and video card (and any other peripherals you might have) are compatible with Mac OS X v10.4, and visit the manufacturers' websites to update the drivers.
Solution 6:
Re-create your printers in Mac OS X.
To re-create your printers, first delete them and then add them again.
To delete your printers:
1. Open System Preferences from the Apple menu.
2. Select Print & Fax, and click Printing.
3. Select each printer in the list and click the delete key (the minus key).
For instructions on how to add your printers again, see "Setting up to print to a printer" in Mac Help or search Help using the phrase "add a printer."
The one that fixed it for me was solution 6 -- re-creating my printers
I don't know why but it could be worth a try
Good luck

I removed all the plugins and reinstalled mythtv. Configured it as advised on the wiki (without dropping the database schema) but the server is still not starting up correctly.
I found out that the server is starting and and stopping when I run:
sudo /etc/rc.d/mythbackend start
when I start the front end, the front end cannot connect to the back end because it is unavailable.
in case I start the server manually:
sudo mythbackend
I am able to connect via mythfrontend and mythtv is working correctly. Any suggestions to change the daemon script ?

Problems after updating from Mavericks to Yosemite.

Hello everyone.I have noticed some battery problems after updating from Mavericks to Yosemite like no charging at all (but the orange led was on )and not able to fully charged.I solve them with SMC reset and PRAM reset.Furthermore, battery discharges faster than before and its really annoying.Now I have notice that the upper right corner of my mac is getting hot.I'll appreciate any help
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013

Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.
5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
How to Clean Install OS X Yosemite
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.

Light Flow / Accessibility Problems After Update ..

OK Light Flow problem after update.... the problem is my Talk Back in Accessibility keeps turning on after i restart my phone i know it should not do that it only dose it when i have Light Flow - LED & Notification installed and Tturned on in Accessibility ..... i use Light Flow - LED & Notification to control my LED Notification becuse i hate the built in feature that came with the phone the default management keep the LED to dim hard to see ........ i have used the app ever scene i got the phone and never had a problem tell this crappy update JZO54K.I535VRBLMD3 / I535VRBLMD3 came out i also believe the update JZO54K.I535VRBLMD3 / I535VRBLMD3 that was pushed out made the Accessibility option bad / and everything else
The phone is new
i have hard factory reset it / battery pulled
it did it with old phone but did not do it before that update was pushed
i also got a (NEW) NOT REFURBED phone trying to solve the poor 4G LTE signal /battery life
and over all phone performance with no luck that update was a bad one and needs to be addressed
PLEASE FIX THE PROBLEM >>>>> VERIZON SAMSUNG GOOGLE ( PLEASE )

yep, I had that same problem too, but found a work around. First I tried disabling the accessibility options (but that was no good, I like the light flow notifications). I read from the app (see bottom of opening screen):
I found the work around to be just getting a folder app from the play store - the only talking it was doing was "opening folder" "closing folder" (annoying as he!!)
See the second screen for what that says as far as options. My opinion - just get the folder app, it's easier.

White screen problem after updating to 1.1 firmware

My 2G iPod Nano worked fine with 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 firmware but after updating to 1.1 I get white screen everytime I turn it on after longer period of time. Turning the iPod off and then right back on makes it work again. I have done restore 3 times without effect. I even removed the firmware files so that iTunes downloads them again when doing the restore but that didn't work either.
Should I return it or wait for new firmware? Has anyone else had this problem after updating to 1.1?

Disconnect iPod and close iTunes.
Firmware files are in "Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates" folder.
You should still have the 1.0.2 files named "iPod_19.1.0.2.ipsw" and "iPod_19.1.0.2.ipsw.signature" in there if have you upgraded from 1.0.1 version.
Remove 1.1 files from the folder so that only those to files are in there.
Disconnect from network (I switched off my wlan) so that iTunes can't download the new version. Connect your iPod and do Restore, iTunes will now use the old firmware files because it can't connect to the internet.
