Screen refresh problem where data is entered and the screen doesn't refresh

Many people in the company are experiencing the odd screen refresh problem where data is entered and the screen doesn't refresh to show the updated result in corresponding cell formulas.
Microsoft have issued a hotfix to fix the issue for Excel 2003 as shown. Microsoft released a hotfix for this problem (<a href="advisory?ID=978908">KB978908</a>). Display memory tends to pick up data from hidden sheets and pastes it
into the active screen. No impact on the file. This occurs when protecting and unprotecting worksheets in VBA. I also suspect that enabling and disabling screen refresh contributes to this problem. In any case there is a fix, albeit with the following disclaimer:
As of yet I have not been able to find a fix for this for office 2010 and 2013, Any suggestions would be great.

Hi,
Based on your description, Excel does not show the text strings when you typing. It may be caused by the cell format, if we set the cell format as ";;;" in custom format, it will not display the text that you typed.
And the issue may be caused by the third-party input method, there are some compatibility issue between them.
If the issue still exits, please try the following methods
Verify/install the latest updates
Repair your Office program

HT4623 Every 10-12 minutes my I-phone 4 comes on automatically and the screen is the one where we enter password. When it does that it makes just one beep.

I have multiple problems with my i-phone 4S.
Every 10-12 minutes my I-phone 4 comes on automatically and the screen is the one where we enter password. When it does that it makes just one beep.
Sometimes, it just shuts down and comes back on by itself.
I am downloading the 6.1.3 update as I write this.

Many thanks for responding and helping me, it is really appreciated. I have done exactly as you suggested and used your link to run the hardware test. It advised that I do have a Hardware problem.
The error was: 4SNS/1/40000001 : IDOR.0 .000
I have done some searches to see if other customers have had this problem and there is a lot out there about the black screen with the macbook pro and retina display. I am not very technical, I undestand some people say to reset the PRAM but I honestly have not a clue about where to start to see if that helps but perhaps I should as I am nowhere near an Apple shop.
It just seems odd to always revert to this old screen saver image no matter how many times I have changed it in the last 6 months it shuts down and goes back on a daily basis.
Would you say that now I have a real error number does it mean I need to pack it up and FedEx it away to an Apple Store before it shuts down and never comes back?

I have a MacBook Pro and OS10.6 and am trying to log into a site that requires me to enter a code from a picture ... problem is all I get on the screen is a white '?' in a blue box. What do I need to display the picture?

Reload the page. If it doesn't load, choose Activity from Safari's Window menu, find that picture in the list, and see what it says to the right; this may reveal what the problem is.

Have a problem where I'll occasionally shift my computer (i.e. physically move it, say from the coffee table to my lap on the couch) and it will freeze and the screen will turn into a bunch of horizontal multicolored lines (closer to 100 lines than 5). Us

Have a problem where I'll occasionally shift my computer (i.e. physically move it, say from the coffee table to my lap on the couch) and it will freeze and the screen will turn into a bunch of horizontal multicolored lines (closer to 100 lines than 5). Usually restarting (by holding the power button to turn it off) works. A few times that has resulted in the three beeps (RAM issue? -- I've since replaced my RAM [it *seemed* to stop it for a while, but maybe not]), but the second time it always works. Attempting to SSH into the computer during this state does not work. Please advise as to what to do/what reports I can run and post. I will take a pic next time it happens.

Sounds like a problem with your GPU. Do you have an external display you could connect your machine to in order to test this? If the external display renders the same way, then your GPU is damaged. If the external renders fine, then the CPU display is damaged.

Auto Counting Number of Rows Where Data is Entered

I am trying to automatically count the number of rows where data is entered. For example, I have a table with six open rows to enter information. If only three of those rows (A2-A4) had names entered in them, and the next three rows were left blank, can I get each name to equal the value "1" so that I can get a total tally of how many names have been entered? So the final tally in this example would be "3." I appreciate your help!
file:///Users/josephdlugo/Desktop/Screen%20Shot%202014-04-30%20at%2011.58.28%20A M.png

there is a function, COUNTA(), that will count the number of items that are not empty:
C1=COUNTA(B)
this is shorthand for select cell C1, then type, or copy and paste the formula:
=COUNTA(B)
The COUNTA function returns the number of its arguments that are not empty.
COUNTA(value, value…)
value: Any value or a collectioncontaining any values.
value…: Optionally include one or more additional values or collections.

Trying to connect apple tv brand new and the screen says 'activating' setting date and time indefinately

just trying to connect to apple tv for the first time and the screen just stays at 'activating' setting time and date and wont let me sign in to itunes sharing until the date and time thing is fulfilled. any thoughts on troubleshooting this issue? thanks

Hi I had same problems and couldn't understand most of the solutions on offer as I'm a bit of a Luddite. The problem seems to be getting ATV to register your network time and date details following the upgrade of software. I use a wireless connection at home and my firewall was blocking the ATV from obtaining this information. Instead of changing router settings, firmware etc (which is beyond me) I solved it this way:
1. Rather than use my existing wireless connection I connected the ATV to my iPhone personal hotspot (iPhone has 3G connection). It may be another network could also be effective.
2. ATV connected via the iPhone no problem apparently got the network time and date settings ok.
3. The previous ATV functionality was restored.
3. I then disconnected from my iPhone hotspot and re-connected to my main wireless connection. All worked fine.
It seems what you need to do is side-step the router firewall problem. Hope it works for others.

Graphic card problem maybe? Since when I have changed the hard drive to my macbook pro and I installed all the new softwares, my mac is very slow and the screen gives crazy pictures,could maybe be the graphic card, does anybody have experienced this?

after a restart it works for a time, but always slow. I went to the Applestore this afternoon and the made a check and said it would be the logicboard and they would have to change it for CHF 600 and it would be ready in 10 - 15 days

HT201263 None of these answers help my problem. My ipad will not leave the Apple logo. I hold both buttons and the screen goes black, then the apple logo immediately pops back up. I can't do anything because the apple logo just keeps popping back on.

I haven't been able to find any answers that solve my problem. My Ipad will not leave the Apple logo. I hold both buttons and the screen goes black and then the Apple logo immediately pops back up. I can't get the red slider screen at all. No matter how many times I hold down both buttons the screen goes black and then the Apple logo pops right back on.

Before you do anything else, try charging via a wall outlet for a while, since its off. Then try turning it back on.
When you put the device into recovery mode it allows you to restore the device when no other options work. You do risk losing everything currently strored on the ipad itself. Hopefully you've performed regular backups either via itunes, icloud or both. Evern if you have synced content to either of those, you may not lose everything. All previous purchases have been saved in the itunes and app stores, so you can dowload them again.
while the ipad is off, press and hold the home button and plug the usb cord into the ipad. You should see a message pop up on the itunes window on your compoter screen that state it has discoverd an ipad in recovery mode.
You should now be able to restore

I got my newly bought (within 30 days) ipad mini cracked, and the screen was broken, where can I find a place(montreal) to replace it, and how much will it cost?

No. Damage caused by the user is not covered by warranty. A replacement iPad mini is $219 for the 1st generation, or $249 for the iPad mini with Retina display.

Hello All, I have a Model - MacBook Pro Laptop and the screen recently turned grey giving me zero visibility or access to the computer. Has anyone else seen or had this problem? Is it fixable or should I get a new unit?

Hello all,
I have a Model - MacBook Pro Laptop and the screen recently turned the colour grey, giving me no visibility or access to the unit.
Has anyone had or seen this problem before? Can it be fixed? I had a repair guy from my local Mac Store take a look at it - he said I needed a whole new screen and top of the computer, but this didn't fix the problem. I took the unit home unrepaired, and a week later it was all of a sudden working fine.
What is happening with my Laptop? Once this happens (grey screen) does it mean that it's going to become a chronic problem?
Please advise....Thanks

It's kind of difficult to diagnosis your problem without a visual clue, because there is a (mostly) software based "gray screen" at boot issue.
But if you got the screen replaced, took it home and now it works, why the repair shop didn't get it working before it left the store is beyond me.
Unless the repair shop is a authorized apple reseller/repair, I wouldn't have taken it to them, and of you did, they should have fixed the issue right away.
