2010 21.5 iMac anyone get one not yellow tinted

I made the mistake of looking at the forum before picking up the base 21.5 iMac and all i see is the yellow tint issue
Then i googled and it looks like a real issue impacting most 21.5 iMacs. . . .seriously ?
I realize this is the er of issues but it seems larger than that
So any good 2010's out therE ?
Tia

I had the 21.5" iMac for a couple of weeks. Decided I really wanted the 27" so back the 21.5" went.
Mine had a very yellowish tint in the bottom-right corner (4th quadrant) that radiates to the center of the display. It was so bad and extremely annoying when working with photos. My observation is from a person who's an avid DSLR photographer. It's less annoying when looking at the browser (surfing the Web). Depending on your use, you may or may not overlook this issue if you have it on yours. YMMV.
Do realize that my experience is in no way, shape, or form representative of all 21.5" iMacs. Just my personal experience with the one I had. BTW, it was ordered from the Apple online store.

  • Free Red Droid Incredible 2 did anyone get one?

    I ordered mine Nov 28th as it was free instead of buying the iphoine 4 S it never came and my order was cancelled and now Verizon CS says oh we ran out what is your order number. Did anyone get one of these? No one ever contacted me to offer any other kind of phone, except now I can get a black one and pay $149 and mail in a rebate for $50, If I had called a week ago the black was offered for free when the red ran out!!! Something is wrong with this picture and its not like Verizon I have been with them a long time. I may  just go to AT & T and get my iphone after all. I am out of contract so have been trying to see if they are going to follow up with me.

    Hello alalsip,
    I'm sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Incredible 2. It sounds like you have done all the troubleshooting steps that's recommended on a new device. The good is that you are within your 14-day return policy. We can exchange your Red Incredible 2 for another at not cost to you. If this solution works for you then that would be great. If you would like to exercise the device exchange to another make and model then you have that option as well. Keep in mind that there may be a price difference, depending on which device you choose, and a $35 re-stocking fee. The original packaging for the Incredible 2 is required should you decide to exercise either option. If you have any questions or concerns as to which option is best for you then feel free to reply to this message for additional assistance.
    Thank you...

  • IMac 27" 2010 - cursed by Apple Gods? Greyish smudging, yellow tint...

    Purchased in October 2010, in Helsinki, Tector store (Finland). Was more than happy with snappiness and overall performance. NOt for long though.
    After 3-5 months of casual use in home environment the screen defeloped greyish smudging inside the LCD assembly, not just behind the cover glass.
    THis winter I had it replaced under warranty in the same Tector store service in Helsinki. After having a closer look at the display, (I use it for photography, calibrated with xrite colormunki), I noticed the yellow tinge at the bottom of the screen area. So this means I got LCD replacement from the first batches, when this problems was widespread, or what? Is it a curse?
    The problem is I live in Russia (where apple does not have either official store or adequate service presence) so I have to travel to the nearest European stores in Finland. That makes for a lot of hassle. Precisely the reason I am posting here - very unsatisfied customer.

    Richard,
    I wouldn't be too concerned. Help forums are specifically for people that are having issues and are NOT representative of the general population of machines. Some people think that if they see some similar posts on a help forum there is a wide spread issue, in most circumstances it's only widespread in their minds. For those that are having legitimate issues it's very simple, contact Apple during the warranty (or AppleCare) period and have the problem addressed. If their machine is out of warranty or their AppleCare (3 years from original date of purchase) has expired they need to bring their machine to an Apple Store or AASP for service.
    If your machine is operating OK as you say it is, stop worrying and continue enjoying your iMac. Your machine is probably representative of the millions of machines operating perfectly fine.

    Hi
    My Powerbook was the same. Only fix is to reinstall OSX from the install CD but be sure not to pick the Format and install clean. Once you boot with the install CD pick the preserve user data and settings.
    On My machine the reinstall looked perfect. My network, email, files and all the programmes were all there. Most apps worked fine but Adobe CS2, Virtual PC and NetBarrier all needed reinastallation as they reported a few files or registration was missing. I went for the 10.4.3 upgrade again and it worked fine.
    Good luck

  • I have a MacBook, made in 2010. I can't get the eject function to work. I have a DVD in now and want to eject it and put another one in. Command-E, dragging it to the trash or Find-Eject does not work. Ideas?

    Hi there. Hear are some other options . Hold down for click on the track pad while restarting and keep it down all the way thru boot. Or use right click on a mouse. If it's stuck, sometimes sticking a business card in top edge of slot while trying the eject option can work.

  • Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one.  Thank you.

    Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one.  Thank you.

    iTunes Match is a subscription system that allows you to upload your own music (e.g. coped from CDs) to the cloud so that it shows (in the cloud) on your devices and computers without having to sync/copy it.
    Automatic downloads allows to, for example, buy an app on your computer's iTunes and have it automatically download on your phone without having to connect and sync it or go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your download and download it yourself - but doing that, going to the Purchased tab and redownloading an app, should get it associated.
    But no, I'm not aware of any problems that not having it associated causes.

  • I have just bought a new Imac and it will not load my copy of FCE 3.5 as it says "PowerPC applications are no longer supported". So how do I get to use the version of FCE I am used to and have paid for ?

    I do not have any experience with Final Cut, but if you have existing projects that you MUST access; then you are in need of a solution on your new iMac in Mountain Lion!
    Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta.  Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
    However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion).  While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
    Workarounds:
    1.  Purchase a used Mac that will run Snow Leopard (with the optional Rosetta installed) and continue to run FCE on that Mac (you can actually use Screen Sharing with a "headless" used Snow Leopard Mac Mini and use the 27" screen from your iMac to view and work FCE in the Mac Mini environment);
    2.  Upgrade to an Intel compatible version of FCE and hope it converts your existing projects to its newer format correctly.  There is much debate that the newer version of Final Cut are eliminating many needed features; for example Final Cut Pro X vs. Final Cut Pro 6 -- many users are staying with version 6;
    3.  Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels and then install FCE in the Snow Leopard environment:

    Full Snow Leopard installation instructions here:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1365439
    NOTE: STEP ONE of the instructions must currently be completed on a Snow Leopard or Lion Mac and the resulting modified Snow Leopard.cdr install file can then be moved over to your Mountain Lion Mac for completion of the remaining steps.
    NOTE 2:  Computer games with complex, 3D or fast motion graphics make not work well or at all in virtualization.

  • The list of extensions for InDesign now have a yellow triangle warning symbol in front of a good many of the extensions and when moused over i get one of two messages:  "Extensions may not function properly because it does not meet the dependency conditio

    The list of extensions for InDesign now have a yellow triangle warning symbol in front of a good many of the extensions and when moused over i get one of two messages:
    "Extensions may not function properly because it does not meet the dependency condition."
    OR
    Extension Status is not consistent with extension set configuration."
    The reason I opened the Extension Manager in the first place was to check to see if I had installed a third party extension.  And I was presented with these warning symbols.  I haven't added anything, I haven't done anything that would cause this.
    Does anyone know how to fix this???
    I am running OSX 10.9.5; Indesign CS6 version 8.0.2 And Adobe Extension Manager version  6.0.8.28.
    Thanks in advance!
    Nina

    Many InDesign pre-installed extensions (Those extensions you have immediately after InDesign installation) define dependency rules in their mxi files. Dependency means that one extension works well only if one or more other extensions are installed and enabled. If this condition is not met, the yellow triangle warning will be shown.
    You can select an extension with warning, click "Advanced" tag page in the lower right panel. You will see "This extension has dependency on: <extension name> ...". Check whether every extensions listed here are available and enabled. If not, enable them. Repeat these steps for all the extensions which have warning.

  • IMac will not play the DVD that I have made on imovie and burned on iMac SuperDrive  ?? (DVD plays fine on household DVD player and also play fine in Toshiba laptop ) Why not on the iMac - anyone know???

    iMac will not play the DVD that I have made on imovie and burned on iMac SuperDrive  ?? (DVD plays fine on household DVD player and also plays fine on Toshiba laptop ) Why not on the iMac - anyone know???

    There are many reasons this could be the case but whether an optical disc can be read or not is a function of:
    The reflective media layer of the disc
    Whether the burned disc was a DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW
    The brand, model, and production lot of the disc
    The specific frequency of the Write lasers that burned the disc
    The specific frequency of the Read lasers that are attempting to read the disc
    Are the Read lasers in the drive working (it is common for one set of lasers in a drive to fail while others continue to work)
    How old are the Write and Read drives (laser frequencies change with age)
    Is there dust on the read laser
    Is there dust on the read lens
    etc.
    At one time it was estimated that fewer than 80% of all burned discs were readable in 90% of the drives. That has, I believe improved over time but at the same time it seems the faillure rate of lasers in the drives has increased but that may simply be the result of how many different read and write lasers there are in today's superdrives. Fortunately todays drives are a lot less expensive the replace -- now that Apple no longer installs optical drives in their computers.

    I had the same issue.  I just went to the Apple Store today to talk to someone about it.  They had me delete the account and then add it back in.  It's been working fine ever since!

  • Hi anyone. Can I buy an SD card reader for my old Powerbook G4, OSX, 10.4.11 and it's only USB. I've never needed one previously but I now need to update the firmware on my camera. Can I get one, if so which one's best? Many thanks.

    Hi anyone.
    Can I buy an SD card reader for my old Powerbook G4, OSX, 10.4.11 and it's only USB.
    I've never needed one previously but I now need to update the firmware on my camera.
    Can I get one, if so which one's best? Many thanks.

    Hello,
    If it is a PowerBook G4 with a PC Card slot, you have two possibilities. You could buy a USB card reader for SD, or a PC Card adapter (such as SanDisk's 6-in-1adapter). Please note that you are or may be limited to plain SD (that is, not SDHC) unless otherwise noted. For a USB reader, make sure that it has Mac support. BTW, is an SD card absolutely necessary for the firmware update; is there not a way of updating via cable? If you post back with the camera model, someone may be able to provide additional information.
