It's some time the monitor of my MacBook Pro presents dark zones at the bottom. I suppose it depends on the lamps. Do you confirm? Is there anything I should do before calling for assistance?

You can run the Apple Hardware Test.
I agree with Carolyn. If that doesn't show anything, Apple has more comprehensive tests. Call an Apple Store and make an appointment with the "genius" bar (free). I don't think an SMCReset is going to help in this situation, but if it was my Mac, I'd try it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

    Hi Etbclovis,
    Phone support is no longer available for Creative Suite 5.5 as Creative Cloud is the latest version.
    For other query, Please refer to Chat support :Adobe - Contact Support – Download and Installation
    You can download the trial version of CS5.5 from the below mentioned link and activate it with the serial number if you are facing issue installing it through Disk.

  • It's been a while since I upgraded my system.  Is there anything I should do before upgrading from 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard other than backing up my files?  The transition should be pretty seamless, right?

    How to Install OS X Updates Successfully
    A. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions:
    Boot from your current Tiger Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. Then select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and later.) 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 installer. Now restart normally. 
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    B. Make a Bootable Backup Using Restore Option of Disk Utility:
    Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
    Select the destination volume from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
    C. Important: Please read before installing:
    If you have a FireWire hard drive connected, disconnect it before installing the update unless you will boot from this drive and install the update on it. Reconnect it and turn it back on after installation is complete and you've restarted.
    You may experience unexpected results if you have installed third-party system software modifications, or if you have modified the operating system through other means. (This does not apply to normal application software installation.)
    The installation process should not be interrupted. If a power outage or other interruption occurs during installation, use the standalone installer (see below) from Apple Downloads to update.  While the installation is in progress do not use the computer.
    D. To upgrade:
    Purchase the Snow Leopard Retail DVD.
    Boot From The OS X Installer Disc:
    Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
    Restart the computer.
    Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
    Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo appears.
    Wait for installer to finish loading.
    E. If updating:
    Download and install update(s) 
    Use Software Update, or
    Download standalone updater(s).

  • I have an iphone 4, when I upgraded to ios 7.1.1 the application 'superlive pro' is not functioning well it is stucked and some times the device needs to be restarted

    I have an iphone 4, when I upgraded to ios 7.1.1 the application 'superlive pro' is not functioning well it is stucked and some times the device needs to be restarted

    if there is a compatability between the app and newer versions of the ios then likely the developer if he/she knows about it will release an update fixing the issue
    but of cause the developer has to know about it so maybe you should inform the developer about the issue and wait for a fix

  • Does anyone know How to run twin monitors on a MacBook Pro operating on a Windows Server 2008 R2 ?

    Hi
    Does anyone know How to run twin monitors on a MacBook Pro operating on a Windows Server 2008 R2 ?

    I know this doesn't help you much, but, I think you have to see if your Mac pro does audio out via HDMI. I don't even know if mine does via DVI. I think it may have to do with the adapter. Try going into Audio MIDI and setting the digital out to multichannel
    and using the toslink cable for now. Lemme see...apparently DVI does not carry audio at all. Hm. apparently monoprice could be helpful?  If I understand what you're saying correctly: you want to take DVI and multichannel audio via the Toslink and have it all go out over HDMI, right? Whooo..... amazon...looks like it's about $100http://www.amazon.com/Audio-SPDIF-Toslink-Converter-Adapter/dp/B0015YYOQQ
    just a shot in the dark
    I'm probably wrong....or not

  • Some times the logs not display in process chains

    Some times the logs not display in process chains then how could we find them??

    If you are in Tcode RSPC and opened your process chain you are able to click on the Logs icon. It will prompt you for a date selection.
    If this still doesn't work you might have forgotton to activate and schedule your process chain. Before you activate check that your start variant is set to Direct scheduling by double clicking on the start variant.
    hope this helps.
    Cheers,

  • When i run keynote in the play mode, some times the computer get stuck, why?, when i run key note in the play mode, some times the computer get stuck, why?

    when i run keynote in the play mode, some times the computer get stuck, why?, when i run key note in the play mode, some times the computer get stuck, why?

    hello,
    I had the same issue. This is what I was told to do.
    iWork has to be removed completely to be effective when re-installing, you must use an application removal tool to do this or it wont remove every Keynote file.
    Appcleaner   will do this and its free.
    The following procedure has helped solve many issues with Keynote:
    1  Close Keynote then use Appcleaner
    2  Empty the Trash
    3  Shut down the Mac, then restart and press the shift key immediately after the startup sound, then release shift when the Apple logo appears
              allow the Mac to boot up to the desktop, it will take longer then usual as the hard drive is being repaired
    4  restart the Mac
    5  Reinstall iWork
    6  Repair permissions:
              Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility > First  Aid:   click on your system disc in the drive column
              and select Repair  Disk Permissions
    7  open Keynote and test

  • Hi, since I've bought the iphone, my facetime never works, I just can't activate the facetime in settings, when I put it on, after some time, the phone shows the message: activation unsuccesful. Do you guys know what should I do?

    Hi, since I've bought the iphone, my facetime never works, I just can't activate the facetime in settings, when I put it on, after some time, the phone shows the message: activation unsuccesful. Do you guys know what should I do?

    Where are you, what network are you on and where did you get the phone?
    If you are on an unsupported network, Facetime may never be able to activate. If the phone originated in a different country, facetime is probably trying to send an International text message to activate. If you don't have International text messaging, it will fail.

  • HT5219 Can I connect my thunderbolt monitor to my MacBook Pro and iMac at the same time

    I am wanting to connect my thunderbolt monitor to my MacBook Pro as a secondary monitor when running programs in windows 7 thru boot camp, and also have it connected to my iMac as a secondary monitor when working thru apps on my iMac. Is there a way to do this without having to connect and disconnect cables each time I want to switch.

    I don't think it can be done without a KVM switch, & not sure they can handle that resolution.

  • My macbook pro (August 2010) keeps freezing when apple mail starts up. This happens every 2nd time I turn on my Macbook Pro. This forces me to hold down the power button to restart my Macbook Pro. Does anyone else experience this, and is there a fix? Thx

    since upgrading to OS lion, my mac book pro (2010 August) keeps freezing (non responsive, requires restart) when i turn on my mac and the system is trying to open apple mail. while apple mail is attempting to collect new mail, the macbook pro freezes. this happens every 2nd time i try to start up my computer. this only started happening after i upgraded to OS lion. please let me know what I need to do to fix this. being forced to restart every 2nd time i turn on my macbook pro has been very frustrating. not sure if apple mail is also the cause of my macbook pro for being very slow during start-up (on the occasion the computer doesn't freeze).

    I am having similar 'freezing' problems with many programs (Mail, Safari, iTunes, etc.). I have done a clean install of Lion instead of an upgrade when it came out. Perhaps something went wrong with my install? I'm thinking about wiping and reinstalling.

    Theres almost a trick to it for first time users, goto SETTINGS...General......Cellular (if Verizon) ....Personal Hotspot, turn it on.....turn on wifi on your Mac, select your Iphone.  Enter password.
    If you take too long doing it, youll need turn turn off and on real quick the "personal hotspot" slider on the Phone.......then go quick again thur the Mac.
