10.5.3 Update display issue. None of the already discussed...
I've calibrated my display at a colour management facility some weeks ago, and took a screen picture of the brightness setting in system preferences... so that i could recall it in case i changed the brightness by accident.
well, after updating couple days ago, i was asked to restart my computer. i did restart, but the computer acted weirdly, taking a lot of time installing extra stuff and eventually auto-restarting extra 2 times before showing my desktop again.
once it did, i noticed right away my screen was a little darker and maybe with lesss contrast. I checked Display preferences (Adjuts display brightness left Uncheked) and with the brightness slider at the same point as usual, it was significantly darker. Actually, i need almost full brightness to get the same white that was 70% brightness before the update.
I see a lot of people with display issues after that update, what is going on?
ps: i'm using 2008 LED 15" MBP
That extra stuff your computer was installing may have been things that Software Update downloaded automatically but didn't install at the time. Don't worry, restarting twice is normal. By chance did you notice a drop in brightness after the update when running on battery power? When you unplug a MacBook Pro, the screen automatically dims a bit to save energy.

Also we are having Mac book pro's (Late 2009 & 2010) after upgrading them to 10.8.5. Unable to launch the mac, getting only white screen with apple icon.
Let me know is there any specific Hardware (Graphic Cards) we need to use for the same.
Please provide me the early solutions.

Suresh.Hi, try this first...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions. -
Latest update returns error " None of the selected updates could be installed. The update could not be expanded, and may have been corrupted during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs."

Does the 7.1 update battery issue affect only the 5s?
I have a 4s, bought in Oct '13, running IOS 7.0.4 with only one third-party app (Twitter).
The 7.1 update was pushed down to my phone earlier this month, but I haven't installed it yet because of the widespread battery drainage problems that came with it.
All the reports I've seen of 7.1-related battery issues have come from 5s owners. Would anyone know if this issue has been reported on the 4s?
TIA.Glad that a Restore as New resolved your issue...

Odd Display Issue streaking to the right
Hi, I had recently inherited an old mac g4 agp 400mhz with the original ati video card. I'm currently using the hp w2207 widescreen monitor that I use with my pc. I am using the old vga input on it and the DVI input for the PC. The problem I am having is that everything is streaking to the right. Im not sure if the video card is just old or it's an issue with vertical refresh or something. The monitor defaults to 1680 x 1050 60hz. Since the card does not have that setting I have been using switchresX to force the resolution. I do not think that this is what is causing the problem since in any of the old default resolutions still have this problem. I have also updated the drivers with only give me limited setting for opengl. I believe this is a problem with the OS GUI, some sort of shadowing window effect gone wrong. But I cannot find any options to turn it off. I'll try and post a picture..
http://tinypic.com/r/ofa4wl/6Hmm flashing PRAM has seemed to help. The streaking is still there but not very visable. Things seem to be getting better as I leave the computer running. Might just be the old electronics needing to warm up a bit. I once had an old moog synth that sat for years and didn't really work when first turned on but if you let it sit for 4 hours and warm up it would be good to go. Thanks everybody for your help

Excel output display issue after exporting the report
Hi All.
We are using BI Publisher with Oracle retail for report generation.While exporting report in excel format , after saving the file we are not able to see the data.
When we do a Format-->Autoformat and select one of the options, we can see the data .
What could be the possible reason for this?Can i do anything to avoid this.
Is there a possibility of checking excel log to see how the Excel treating the incoming data.If yes, how can we check the excel log(failed to find anything on this).
Thanks!!Hmm.. Not really sure. Have you checked your Financial Reporting preferences on Workspace? Couple of things to look for:
- Export to Office Application options
- User Point of View options
I would just check the preferences and test various options.
Cheers,

Why don't iTunes 11 get update of apps by syncing the already updated apps on iPad or iPhone?
Please help!!!
So annoying...coz it is too much waste the time waiting for every devices apps updated.Hello Stickerless!
Be sure to check if the notifications are enabled in Settings > Notifications and check what does appears in the notification center.
If it's everything configured and it doesn't work as it should this issue may be resolved by resetting all settings in Settings > General > Reset.
If that doesn't work, create a backup of all your content and restore the device.

Pixelated enlarged screen - display issues related to external hard drive
Hi. I had an external hard drive plugged into my macbook. I have a second monitor hooked up. My screen is pixelated and enlarged (I have to scroll to see the whole desktop). The icons are rearranged and very blurry. Everything is blurry and enlarged. My files will open, but they are all blurry as well. When I noticed these display issues, I realized the mac was not detecting the hard drive that was plugged into the usb port. I unplugged it and then a LOT of folders with the hard drive name appeared on the desktop and then disappeared. I know I may have misstepped by unplugging it, but what can I do now? I have rebooted, shut down, checked zoom and screen resolution settings, and unplugged the monitor. It's the same when I uplug the second monitor and just view my desktop on the mac. Any ideas? Thank you in advance!
NJThere is a multitude of posts here addressing the dangers of using Mackeeper. But just look at this:

While this particular problem may not have been caused by Mackeeper, I urge you to uninstall this piece of trash.

Dual Display Issues, Mini Display Cable, Firewire, USB, Nothing Works
I am working on a project for my supervisor, the specifics of each machine are listed below to the best of my ability:
Machine 1:
iMac9,1 Intel Core 2 Duo
Version: 10.6.8
Build: 10K549
Machine 2:
iMac10,1 Intel Core 2 Duo
Version: 10.6.8
Build:10K549
I have a iLuv Mini DisplayPort Cable, a 9-Pin to 9-Pin Firewire Cable, a M/M USB Cable and an ethernet cable. What I have been trying to do is link these two computers together so that each can be used as a seperate processor but their screens can be shared. Before anyone tells me this is impossible, these two monitors have in the past been connected together so there was the ability to dual use the computer monitors. I do not remember if I actually had the processing power of both available. When I plug the minidisplay port cable from one computer to the other the screen on Machine 2 will blink black to blue and then go back to an independent screen. The displays tab on neither computer shows two displays and none of the command f2 or f3 prompts are causing either computer to respond. I have tried connecting them with firewire and USB and can only get disk transfer mode from the Firewire. I know these computers used to be able to support being connected to one another and now I have no idea what is going on. I don't personally remember having a minidisplay port cable in the beginning so its possible I am going about this all wrong. I have called Apple Support many times and they suggested an OSX reinstall. I found the reinstallation software for 10.6.3 for a macbook 13 inch and each computer recognized the disc but said that the operating system could not be installed. At this point I have done everything I can think of including running a hardware test through the diagnostic tool at startup and on both computers the test came up with no error codes. Please please help me get these computers working again for my boss!
-AlanBoth the 9,1 (Early 2009) and 10,1 (Late 2009) iMac's only support Target Disk Mode using FireWire.
see > Target Disk Mode vs. FireWire networking | Macworld
or > Apple Tips Using Target Disk Mode
Adding that if the Late 2009 is a 27" then it supports Mini DisplayPort input for use as a monitor from another Mini DisplayPort Mac.
see > iMac: How to use your iMac as a Target Display Mode display
An Ethernet cable can be used for Networking and File Sharing the two iMac's.
see > Mac Basics: File Sharing
Plus connecting two iMac's together with a USB cable, will do nothing except trip the USB port overloads or something worse. -

Mac Pro Display Issue - Unexpectedly Sleeps and Freezes
Just since a couple of days my Mac Pro desktop has been having display issues. Unexpectedly the screens go into sleep mode, it turns black and freezes, the computer doesnot respond to the keyboard or mouse.
At first I thought this was related to Chrome, and switched to Firefox, but the computer is still having the same issue. I have to shut down and restart each time it gets stuck.
I even went into preferences and changed the energy saver settings to "Never" allow display or harddrive to sleep. But this problem is stil happening.
Does anyone have the same problems? Or a solution?I cleaned out my mac with compressed air, it was dusty, but the display flickering happened again.
So I followed your advice and installed:
Temperature Monitor
http://www.bresink.de/osx/TemperatureMonitor.html
Which showed that my memory module 1B and 2B were 70 - 75'C(160 -167'F). There was no reading for the graphic card so I couldn't tell if that was over heating.
Then I installed:
smc fan controller
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/23049/smcfancontrol
and increased the memory_cpu fan speed which lowered the temperature of the ram to 60'C (143'F).
I even changed this ram's placement and put it in different slots.This ram was the same temperature in the new placements.
Also this is the kingston 2gb ram without heatsinks. Ive used it for 1.5 yrs, and this is the first time its giving me these problems.
Do you know how I can check if the graphic card is over heating? or is the problem just with the ram?
Thank you for all your help! -
I have a T42 2376-C31 that is having a display issue, pink on the lower left bottom, I most likely will replace the screen. I disassembled the laptop and there are three wires two long ones one black one white going to the wireless card and a short white one that I can't remember where it attached, I downloaded the pdf's 39t2332 and 39t6192_01 and neither give enough detail where this third wire attaches to. Does anyone know where it goes? I thought it attached to the modem but after unwrapping the protective film couldn't see anywhere it attached. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Secondly with the Radeon 7500 what is the best screen size I can replace the older screen 1024x768 with?
Brookeyou can go with a SXGA+ screen.

None of the regions show up...
..not even the portlet banners. :(
..I understand that if you're not authorized to access a portlet, at least the portlet banner would be displayed. But, in my case, only the page banner is displayed. None of the regions (or even thep portlet banners of the portlets contained in those regions) show up..
..does anybody have any idea on why this is happening? Considering that I've been given proper priveleges.
Thanks,

P.S.
I'm using Oracle Portal version 3.0.9 by the way.Ok.. so I tried accessing the portal with administrator privileges, and went to 'View' the page that I couldn't access as an End User using my account. Unsurprisingly, an error returns: OA Framework Portlet Timeout.
two of the regions (left and right) simply returned the error in old-fashioned-one-phrase-'OA Framework Portlet Timeout' error form, while the center region displayed the Portlet banner with a proper error notification and a link to the exception details.
..I do not have a clue as to why this is happening in our 'Production' instance, albeit, it runs perfectly fine on our 'Development' instance. :/
