Apple 24" HD Display - Doesn't display smooth gradations

i have just noticed a very serious issue with my display. i use photoshop for retouching.
i have been using shadows and gradations for the past 3 days and there is a serious problem with banding. serious banding when creating gradations. more serious when i use just the foreground color against a transparent background, than a 2 color gradation.
when i paint with the brush (hardness setting to 0%), there is still a distinct line at the edge, when in the past, the transition would not be visible.
when i create shadows (against a white background), the banding happens where the shadow meets the white background—there is a visible grey line that is not present in my 20" monitor. what i mean to say is that there is not a smooth transition from grey to white.
i am also contacting adobe about this.
any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
me: mac pro (2x3 ghz quad-core intel xeon), 8gb ram, 10.5.6, hti radeon hd 2600

Yeah, I noticed this early on as well.
If you change your colour profile from "LED Cinema Display" to "sRGB IEC61966-2.1" the gradients will be smooth.

  • Officejet 6500 709e LCD display doesn't display all pixels

    A week ago my wired printer stopped displaying all the pixels on the LCD display.  I can't, at this point, understand anyhting on the first or second lines.  So I don't know how much ink I have in each cartridge (which usually shows on the second line), because random pixels show up, not all of them, for each cartridge.
    Important to note:  The LCD display does not add extra pixels to the display.  It just leaves out pixels where there should be pixels.  So if it's intstalling a new in cartridge, I can't understand anything showing on the first line of the display because only a few pixels display as it's configuring the new cartridge.
    Is there a way to fix this?
    My printer, by the way, says it's "not connected to the computer" when I press the wrench button and then a help choice on the printer, but I have no problem printing from my laptop (HP Pavilion dv5-2074dx).
    Is there a way to fix my LCD display?  I've had the printer less than a year...

    Hello Jane0218,
    To be honest, I don't think that there would be much to do in this case. I think your best bet is to contact the HP support for your country and see if they can help you. If you bought the printer less than a year ago it is still within warranty so that shouldn't be a problem.
    Here you can find the support numbers for the US:

  • 24" LED Cinema display doesn't display screen saver.

    I have my MacBook Pro set to display a screen saver- (flurry). The MBP alone functions as desired. When plugged into the Cinema display, which is 90% of the time, it has only appeared maybe once or twice since purchased, even after Snow Leopard was installed. Anybody have a clue on what could be casing my flurry to be absent? Thanks!

    I just answered my own question. I didn't realize that I had the sleep/ screen saver activation times set the same. (Hence the reason why I would see about .5 seconds of flurry before the screen would go black).

  • Apple Store said my display doesn't work but offered no solutions.

    Just got back from the Apple Store. They confirmed my iPad is fine but the display doesn't work. It's black. Their only option was to pay $300 for a new iPad. Mine is only 88 days out of warranty and I took it in the store once already for the display issue that led to its ultimate demise. To talk to anyone else is $20. I refuse to pay more for a product that has shown itself to be unreliable. What's the next step? I truly feel wronged. iPad is in perfect physical condition.

    I took it in in May of last year. The screen has black bars flash, the screen goes black for a moment, and then it comes back on. It can be days between the issue. When I took it in, it didn't do it. I had to wait forever even with an appointment. I didn't want to take it back in even though it has been having the issue all along. There was no way of knowing when it would happen. It finally flashed and never came back on.

  • Mac Mini Doesn't Display through Philips Tube HDTV

    I have a Philips tube HDTV with a VGA connector in the back, and used the DVI-VGA connector that came with my new Mac Mini to connect. I don't have a computer monitor at home. The TV doesn't display anything.
    So then I took the Mac Mini over to a friend's. He has a VGA monitor, and so he ran the Mac Mini through setup and set it to the lowest possible display settings. I came back here, rebooted and plugged it back in; still no display.
    Then I tried this:
    "First thing to try is to boot the mini into safe mode by holding down the shift key as it boots up. This should allow it to boot, and then give you access to the display preference pane to adjust the settings back to those that worked.
    If that doesn't work, try disconnecting the TV, and rebooting the Mac with no display attached. Once it has fully booted and enough time has passed to allow the desktop to be displayed, reconnected the TV. This should force the mini to boot into a low-res mode that works with just about anything, then when you reconnect the display, either cause it to auto-sense the correct resolutions, or give you access to display preferences."
    This didn't work either. Any suggestions?

    Hi Alan,
    Check your TV manual to see what resolutions your VGA/RGB connector on your TV will accept. Being a HDTV it is likely to be from 480p to at least 1080i.
    You then set the resolution in your Display preference pane to 640x480 and you should get a picture on your TV. The trick is to set it when you can't see anything! Attaching to another device may not help because the Mac detects that device when you set the Display and will know its not that when attached again to your TV. When attached to your TV it is setting another resolution it thinks will work. It is clearly guessing the wrong screen resolution when you do connect it.
    I overcame this situation myself using a VNC client. That requires you to have another computer you can use to control your Mac Mini via VNC. You can then access the Display pane via VNC and set the 640x480 resolution which will work.
    For setting 1080i (and the VNC process) please see:
    http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060319073027371&query=1080i%2BMac %2BMini
    I am guessing you can also use an S Video adapter - available from Apple - to connect to an S Video port your TV may also have. That won't help with the VGA connection though.
    Hope this helps.

  • MSI 970a-g46 motherboard starts up but doesn't display anything.

    Hello, I'm having problems with a new motherboard I got from Amazon, specifically the 970a-g46. The following are my specs in use with this motherboard:
    CPU: AMD Phenom 2 x4 965
    GPU: nVidia GeForce 560 GTX
    Ram: 8gb Kingston HyperX Fury 1866mhz.
    PSU: Corsair 650TX (650 Watts)
    Compatability-wise, everything checks out so I wasn't expecting problems at first. All the other parts excluding the ram I've used before. Here's exactly what happens:
    I power up the computer after everything is installed and connected. The 4 phase LEDs turn on which tell me the CPU is powered up and working (so I assume). I don't get any beeps or buzzs mainly because I don't see any speaker/buzzer on this board. The monitor blinks and while it is connected to my GPU, it doesn't display anything, it's just a black screen. I can leave it on for a few minutes and I'll still not see anything happen. An important observation here is that my keyboard which has LEDs will turn on after a short period of time in boot-up (with my older set-up that is). This does not happen ever regardless of how long I leave my computer on on this new mobo.
    I've gone over and checked/tested numerous things:
    * The PCI-E and ATX cables for the GPU, motherboard and CPU are all connected and secured (I've tried both 4-pin and 8-pin connections for the CPU, neither help).
    * I've tried jumping the CMOS multiple times to no avail.
    * I tested the ram on another computer and it worked just fine on that one.
    * I've tested the motherboard without a GPU and it still does nothing (though I think that's because this motherboard doesnt have its own integrated GPU for some reason).
    So far the only possible reasons why my computer is not working is because of my PSU (very unlikely as it's only a year old and it's a Corsair, which I've heard is very reliable in the long-run), GPU (It is quite a few years old but even without the GPU my computer still doesn't go past boot-up), CPU (possible due to its age and how many freaking time I've reseated it (probably around 8 times) so I wouldn't doubt it, but before I put it into this motherboard I did check its pins and they were all there and placed nice and smoothly into the socket.) and finally the motherboard (it's possible that this is just a defected motherboard and giving me a super hard time which would be a first in all the years I"ve spent computer building).
    The best case scenario of course is me giving some kind of oversight to how I transferred over the parts and connectors. I might've missed something obvious to please any advice/insight on how I can solve this problem would be greatly appreciated
    EDIT: Some other things I did but forgot to mention:
    * Checked ground nut things and ensured they matched the specifications of the motherboard ATX; only 6 are under the board and each one is aligned up with the holes on the board as designed.
    * Tried booting up without powering the CPU. Only one phase LED light came on, still the same problem (for an obvious reason this time now).
    * Re-seated GPU multiple times, re-connected cables multiple times.
    What I have NOT done is re-seat the CPU because I am almost out of acetone so I would need to get another supply of that which won't be until tomorrow. I also have not re-seated everything back on my older motherboard to check if it still works. Tomorrow I'll most likely do that and if I find that the old motherboard works flawlessly then that tells me that the new motherboard I got is either defected or there's some compatability issue I"m missed out on.
    EDIT 2: Just found a speaker and plugged it into the motherboard. Booted it up and I got no beeps whatsoever. So this mobo is giving me no video activity (there is a signal it's just blank), and no beeps from the motherboard. I have no idea what that could mean at this point.
    EDIT 3: I decided to test a few things with the new speaker I just got. First I removed ram and tried running, I got 3 beeps which I assume is the beep sequence of faulty/no ram. Removed the power to CPU and the GPU itself individually, gave no beeps this time.

    Quote from: rhradacut on 06-January-15, 16:49:14
    What's the serial number of your MB? Needed to determine what BIOS may be on the MB. Exactly which version of the CPU is it? There were several different 965 CPUs and they required different BIOS versions, 1.2, 1.9,2.2 depending on which CPU you actually have.
     Also another problem may be that native memory supported by your CPU is DDR3-1333, not 1866
     None of the supported CPUs have integrated graphics, any MB graphics would be in the chipset, not CPU. Examples would be 785G, 880G
    Thank you very much rhradacut! The problem was that the mobo for whatever reason was forcing 1866mhz on my CPU when it only supported up to 1600mhz. I had to install a spare ddr3 module to downclock it so that I could access the BIOS and manually set the DRAM timing to 1600mhz for it to work. That's a very strange problem that I figured would've been auto-resolved by the hardware, and would also be a big problem if I didn't have any spare DDR3 ram to work with.
    Once again thanks for helping out on solving my problem.

  • IMac - Display doesn´t work after restart

    My iMac 21 Display doesn´t work after restart. If I turn it off and 1 hour later I want use it again the iMac shows the white screen with the mac logo and then the display goes off. I connected an external display to check if the iMac was ON and with the external display I can login and do everything but the iMac Display doesn´t work .
    If I turn it off and wait 3 or 4 hours  and then turn it back on the display works OK.
    This is very strange behavior I have spent hours and hours trying to fine the solution or a similar issue but nothing so I am looking help here at apple.com
    BTW When I bougth the iMac 21 there were some spots over the display so the display was replaced by the provider. The warranty has expired by now.

    To tell you the truth, I don't know if they have to repalce the LCD panel or what they do for a bad backlight. In this reality of block or assembly replacement it probably involves repalcing the panel and not the backlight component. Don't know what it would cost. You'd have to ask that of a service center.

  • Mail 3.6 (on MacOS 10.5.7) doesn't display 'Save' and 'Quick Look' buttons

    I have recently updated to MacOS 10.5.7 and discovered a strange glitch in viewing certain emails with attachments. For a small minority of emails with attachments, the 'paperclip' icon appears in the mail list, indicating the presence of an attachment, but neither the icon for the attachment nor the 'save' and 'quick look' buttons appear. Options to save the attachment or quick look the attachment under the File menu do work.
    Clearly the attachment is there but Apple Mail 3.6 doesn't know how to indicate it. This inconsistency in the interface's feedback about attachments has been very irritating.
    Remedies I have attempted thus far:
    • Rebuilding the mail box (no change)
    • Disabling all Mail extensions (bundles)
    • Examining the raw mail code (nothing obvious wrong, but I am not an expert).
    The problem is currently present for some Microsoft Word file attachments, but I have no clue if it is limited to just those attachments.
    I will note the latest email with this failure to display attachments was sent by a colleague using Apple Mail on an iPod Touch, so I can't believe it is a mangled attachment. It is not limited to a single sender, so again, no reason to believe mangled attachments.
    I would really appreciate any suggestions for how to fix this...

    I disabled the mail extensions by removing them from the ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/ directory. I didn't think the mail extensions could get patched into Mail.app by any other means, but if you care to clarify I would appreciate it.

  • (ipod 30Gig) doesn't display the song that is playing on the ipod screen

    Every time I click on the song I want to listen to, the screen slides over and the new screen is blank. The song plays but the song that is "now playing" doesn't display any information on the screen at all. It is totally blank. Has anyone ever heard of this happening. I don't want to reset my ipod for such a small problem because I've erased a lot of the music I have on itunes. At the same time it is annoying to not see the song name/length/volume or album art.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    I actually had this happen once and a reset worked. I think you are confused by what a reset is. A reset is when you press and hold the Menu and Select button for at least 6 seconds or until the Apple Logo apears; this does not erase music on your iPod. A restore is when you use the iPod updater to erase all of the files on your iPod and put it in the original Factory settings.

    Anyhing wrong with that or is the syntax correct so far?
    Then you said that I have to change the columne type..... Right now I have those two columnes ("name" and "kategorie") set to "string" as you can see in the attached screenshot. Is that correct? If it is, the mistake must be something else I'm afraid.
    Again, thanks for your support! :-)
    And by the way, merry Christmas everybody! :-)
