Randomly a blue bar scans across the screen when apps are open, how can I stop that?

After updating a blue bar scans across the screen. It does it in most of my apps and even when viewing my pix. This never happened before the latest update I installed. It's very annoying. Does anyone have an idea to stop this blue bar?

I have a very strong feeling that this has something to do with the government requesting the data of 5,000 apple customers. This blue bar scans my screen too coincidentally. While Im on my facebook messages, text messages, recent calls, even on snapchat. On the other discussion, people have cleared their whole phone and it still happens. Your best shot would be calling Apple

  • Blue rectangle moving across the screen

    Hi,
    Recently I installed ios7 in my iPod touch 5th generation.
    After installing this os, I was having a problem of blue rectangle moving across the screen. This usually comes if I connect the device to wifi.
    Did anybody faced the same issue?
    Regards,
    Santhosh

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Question when I log into Firefox, the screen scrolls down and I have to use the side-bar to go back up to type my query into the 'search' window. How can I stop that and get Firefox to start with the 'search' window accessible? With thanks, Peter

    Is it working properly when it is connected to power?

    Please clarify...  Does the screen look "normal" (and is it turned "on") when connected?  When you disconnect it, "lines appear across the screen"?  If it "wont turn on," how are there lines (or anything) appearing on the screen?

    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    Verify the issue is not content related, by viewing different content.

    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

    I just bought a used i pod touch from work but the screen says Ipod is disabled, how do I clear that to get back and eneter in the passcode?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • The smaller picture in face time bounced around the screen and has disappeared. How can I get it back.

    The smaller picture in face time bounced around the screen and has disappeared. How can I get it back.?

    I take it this was during a call? Close the app and open it again.
    Failing that, and when the call is over, do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank. Be patient, the device will power ON again in the normal way. It is app and data safe!]

  • The screen goes out of sync, how can I fix this?

    when I start the server, the screen goes out of sync, how can I fix this?. The server has no video card.

    What do you mean by 'out of sync'?
    Try running the 'kickstart' using Send UNIX Command or while logged in to that server (ssh etc):
    sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/k ickstart -restart -agent -menu -console
    You might also want to trash /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist from the server..

    Hi
    As I see this I see two parts
    • Howto go from FinalCut to iDVD
    • Howto set iDVD right
    In FinalCut Express (to 4) or Pro (to 6 - most probably 7 too)
    • One has to set Anamorphic in the Browser window - menu columns
    • Export as QuickTime movie .mov - NO QUICKTIME CONVERSION
    In iDVD there are TWO places to set - WideScreen
    - Start a NEW iDVD project - AND HERE SELECT WideScreen 16:9
    - in Project - select Projectinfo
    - now set WideScreen 16:9 - Here too
    This use to work for me.
    FOR FinalCut Pro-X - I have not a Clue - as I don't use it. SORRY
    BTW - There is a good practice to before BURNING the DVD do
    • Save as a DiskImage
    • Test this by using DVD-Player tool
    And if it is OK Size and All - then burn it by using
    • Disk Util tool
    • here set down burn speed to x4 or less (less burn errors = plays on more devices and better)
    • Not using Memorex or NoName etc cheap media - as they usually DO NOT WORK as Video-DVDs
    • I use Verbatim DVD-R as they play on more and even older DVD-players
