I updated my iMac to 10.7.3 and about an hour later the screen began to flicker with a gray line on the upper side, and it also flicker green and red small pixel lines all over the screen, mainly green. The computer froze with these pixels, so I shut it off and restarted it, and there were this green lines everywere. So I turned it off, and the next day I turned it on and it began to work just fine, but suddenly the same thing happened again, and when I restart the computer again there are these green and some red pixels everywere.
I've read 10.7.3 is giving people many problems, but I never saw that it gave one like this. How can I fix this, or what will Apple do to fix this problem they caused me with their update.
Thanks
Contact Apple Service, iMac Service or Apple's Express Lane. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine.

I was using my ipod when the screen froze,then it went black/gray with messedup pixels and lines everywhere.I already tried plugging it in and connecting it to my computer,but nothings shows up in itunes, and my ipod doesn't respond to any buttons.Plus it won't go off.Someone please help; i don't want to have to replace it.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I was just scrolling through my apps when the screen suddenly froze. A force shutdown didn't work and when I pressed the silent on/off button, there was no vibration either. The frozen screen faded to white with a few lines and about 10 minutes later, the edges started to turn black, forming a ring which got larger till about 4 hours later, the screen turned completely black. I tried connecting to iTunes but it wasn't detecting the phone and I can't do anything with it now... When it turned completely black, I charged it and after a while, the low batt screen came on but it was fuzzy and flickering with the white ring... What to do know ???????
Restart your computer while holding down left mouse key. That will eject the CD and your Mac will start as normal.

yesterday for the first time i turned on my macpro 2011 model and i got a crazy gray screen with lines all over it ,so i held down the power button and turn off then restarted and all was ok could someone help me with this,what caused this shut down. werd
Are the lines like psychedelic herringbone? If yes, I had that happen once, it was something serious, like the
Logic board. The good news is that it was fixed without any loss of data on the hard drive. Take it in to have Apple look at it ASAP. I took it to TekServe at the time, they are very nice about preserving your data and user library when possible.
Good luck and don't panic. -
My ipod has lines all over the screen and would there be any way to get that fixed?
My I pod touch has lines all over the screen and I was wondering if there would be any way to get that fixed?
Try the standard fixes to rule out a hardware problem:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If stil problem you very likely have a hardware problem.

Horizontal Lines all over Ipod Touch Screen
Hi,
There are white and multicolored lines all over the Ipod touch display. The device still responds to touch, however.
Does anyone know what could cause this to happen?
I didn't do anything to it. It's been working perfectly. I was using it and the battery was about to die so I put it aside. A few minutes later I tried to wake it again and this is what it looked like:

ThanksHave you had any luck at the Apple Store?
I took mine and they said there was nothing they could do. They suspected something had randomly gone wrong with the hardware, but as it was not under warranty they wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
They gave me the option of replacing it for something like $160 or getting 10% a new iPod Touch. I'm not really sure what I'm going to do. -
I created a book on I photo and uploaded it yesterday. it was all ok and the order was accepted. However i got an error message today. The book looks perfect on I Photo, when i do a preview, the PDF file is totally smudged and there are 100s of horizontal lines all over the photos. Also the coloures are bleeding all over.
what can be the case and how can i resolve this.
samirif the book looks good order while in safe mode - then reboot into normal mode
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
Apple will stand behind the order if it does not match your preview

Hi, I have a brand new imac which i got today and when I open Iphoto all i get is the error message "Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable" any ideas? thanks
Are there photos in the Library? If not then just trash it and launch iphoto. It will make a new one.
If there are pics in it then Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. -
When set a document in my printer to copy or print it prints out the page FULL of black lines all over the paper. The only way I can get the page to copy so I can read it is to scan the document, save it on my desk top, then print off of my desk top, Thats the only time that the page is not covered by black lines.
How do I fix this?What model do you have?

Why does my web page, created on iWeb, look correct on Safari but has thick black lines all over it in Firefox?
What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand? I assume those black lines are around photos or objects that have had a frame or drop shadow added to it, right? If so that's a known issue.
There's a workaround for that in this tutorial: #7 - Converting Photos w/Frames, Drop Shadows and/or Reflections into a Single Image File. That should get rid of those black lines/boxes.

Everytime I update my music, my apps are being reinstalled so I have to submit my username and password in every app all over again.
Everytime when you sync your iPhone to iTunes , have you authorize your account? Authorize account will be required if you have one or more apple device that sync with the same iTune. You can authorize your apple account by signing the apple account in iTunes. Hope it help.

I was transferring data from my old iMac to my new iMac via Time Machine. After about 4 hours, the electrical power fluctuated and turned off my wi-fi. Now most of my necessary programs are useless. How do I erase that mess and start over?

The following Knowledge Base article and it's referenced link should get you started with the Erase and Install of Mavericks:

Just updated my iMac to OS X Yosemite and my Photoshop will no longer open. Pop up message informing, Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall the application. I have the pay monthly package and don't know where to start.
Do as it says: Reinstall the program. Run the cleaner tool and let CC app do the magic.
