Apps screen blanked out in new Itunes

I installed 3.1 and itunes 9. When I go to the Apps tab in itune with my iphone connected the apps screens are greyed out. I do not have restrictions on, and I have checked the preferences box to block auto sync. Ideas?

Sounds identical to what has happened to me. I have 3GS, iTunes 9.0.1, OS 3.1
iTunes acts normally when nothing is connected to it. I can see all apps and undate them. When I connect my iPhone to sync, everything will sync but the apps. They are present, but greyed and frozen. I can't manipulate them around like I would re-arrange my iPhone (which looks like a neat new feature in iTunes), I can't check or uncheck any of the apps to sync and update them with my iPhone. So far the iPhone seems to be working fine, and the apps on it still work, but they aren't being updated.

Screen blanks out when trying to move apps in itunes 11.1

I can't move apps from one screen.folder to another without the screen blanking out in itunes 11.1

I've had a similiar problem. I once tried connecting my player to a stereo system using someone elses stereo and audio cables. I connected the cables to the headphone jack and watched as my creative zvm sort of freaked out and went to the fm radio screen. However, a few seconds ago I tried this once again using my own cables (exact same type as my friends audio cables, just a different brand) and was able to successfully connect my player to my stereo reciever and nothing went wrong. So the only differences between these two attempts were the cables (which as far as I know are the exact same thing, just with some minor cosmetic differences, both had a standard audio jack that fit the headphone connection, and both split into two auxiliary connectors for audio, one red, one white), both went through different stere recievers, and I had upgraded my firmware since that last attempt.
When I first tried it and the player freaked out I wondered if it was caused by some complication due to the feature that allows you to have a wired remote control. But since it works on my setup I'm not too sure about that unless that was somethign that got fixed with the latest firmwware release.
And this is something I tried while writing this. I went into settings, went to audio/video settings and turned oof the Video Out option. Connected my usb dongle (that came with my player) to my player and connected my video cables to the player and connected the white and red connectors to my reciever. The screen stayed on and audio played through my stereo. Even with Video Out on music still played but obviously the screen turned off as it switched to A/V Out mode.

[Solved] Screen blanks out after quitting X

Hello everyone.
I don't use any login manager such as GDM or Slim, I just start X from the terminal when I need it. However, after installing Arch the last time (new hdd), every time I exit X (XFCE 4 is my window manager) the screen blanks out. I know the system is still responsive, because if I type startx or reboot, it works. Calling startx wakes the monitor again. However, I don't need X all the time, sometimes I prefer not to use it.
I haven't dealt with this before and searching for a solution didn't help - nvidia users used to have this issue until a particular driver update.
However, I have an ATI card (HD 5750) and I use the xf86-video-ati driver.
Appending vga=773 to kernel options changes the resolution (of my ttys) but it doesn't solve the issue.
I'm kind of clueless about how to proceed, so any hints and tips would be welcome.
Thanks

It's a long thread, but be sure to read it all carefully <joking>
Thanks, I missed that repo
The catalyst driver doesn't have the issue, so as far as it works, the issue is resolved.

The screen blanks out frequently during use.

Try the standard fixes:

reset iPad. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPad

Screen Blanks Out while in use

I have a very odd problem with my Macbook. To be clear, this was purchased as an Apple Refurbished model over the holiday season, so it's only a month or five weeks old. It's the 2gHz Black Macbook, 80GB HDD, 1GB ram, OSX 10.4.x (unsure which revision of 10.4).
The first incident happened on New Year's Day. I was using the laptop on battery power, and somewhere between 20% and 30%, the screen blanked out. I figured that the power had run out, and it hibernated (odd, I usually get a "your battery is almost drained, please switch to power" message), so I plugged it in and re-opened the lid.
No response. I can hear the optical drive grind on, but that's about it. The screen flickers once, but stays black thereafter.
I took it into the Apple Store later that day, and had a Genius look at it. Of course, as soon as I bring it into the store, I open the lid; and lo and behold, the screen works perfectly. The Genius looked in my system logs and told me that the system had indeed hibernated, but when it came back online, there was a problem with the video drivers, so the screen didn't recognize that it should be on. Told me it was a one-time thing, and that everything should be just fine.
Well, I took it home and kept using it, testing it a couple of times by burning the battery down overnight, and plugging it in during the day and checking it. Each time, it came back from Hibernation just fine.
After a week or so of testing it, I just returned to my normal usage patterns, until Sunday night.
I was using the laptop - this time on wall power! - and I had the screen blankout. Again, I didn't know what was going on, so I did the only thing that seemed to work last time, I closed the laptop, unplugged and replugged it, and checked it a few hours later. Again, my screen works perfectly, as though nothing had ever happened.
I didn't get a chance to thoroughly test it on Monday night, but under normal usage patterns, it worked just fine. I bring it into work tonight (Tuesday night), _AND IT HAPPENS AGAIN_. The same circumstances as the last time it happened: plugged in, just idling at the desktop.
I'm beginning to think there's a pattern, but I don't know what's happening. I should mention that on all three occasions, I physically shutdown the machine, which would seem to make it such that when it's turned back on, I'm getting a fresh boot. When I turn the power back on, I do see the white light at the front, and I hear the optical drive making noise, but no "Apple" sound, and no screen.
I followed the advice of the Apple support article - clearing the PRAM - as I had two of the three indicators that the laptop was turning on, but still nothing (but that assumes that we're using a fresh boot). I also attempted to shut down the machine using the keyboard shortcut - ctrlcommandeject - but that makes no noticeable difference.
So, I'm asking for advice. One, what can I do, short-term, to get the unit working again? I'll try and keep this updated if it pulls the magical "I don't know what you're talking about, I'm working just fine now!" maneouvre again. When I get off work in the morning, I'm apt to take this into the Genius Bar again, as I now have a trend of this happening. It may also be possible that this is a genuinely defective unit, as it was a refurb, which means someone returned it to Apple (probably for the same reason).
Anyway, help where you can, moral support where you can't. Or, if you like, mock my plight and make pithy commentary about how I'm out of luck

And yet some more information:
I wanted to test something. Namely, was the computer "on" or not? So I inserted a blank DVD. The slot-loading machinery accepted it just fine. However, pushing the "eject" button does nothing.
The only conclusion I seem to be able to draw is that the computer is still in sleep state (does a sleeping Mac allow DVD's to be inserted? I don't know!). If that is indeed the case, then I have no idea how to wake it up; the power button does nothing (except holding it down until the unit shuts off), and opening/closing the lid has no effect.

How to transfer purchased apps from iphone to the new itunes

Hi, how do i transfer purchased apps from iphone to the new itunes? (11.0.2) thanks!

Hi, CelineAyu,
Here is the way about how to transfer apps from iPhone to iTunes.
1. Connect your iPhone to the computer and open iTunes.
2. Make sure that iTunes is authorized and you are logged into your account. From the top menu choose Store -> Sign In. To authorize the computer for use with your account select Store -> Authorize This Computer.
3. From the left menu under DEVICES right-click on the name of your iPhone (Windows) or Control-click (Mac) to display the shortcut menu.
4. Choose the Transfer Purchases from iPhone option.
5. If you have any question about this issue. You can also use iPhone Transfer to help you.

Where is the "apps" menu item in the new iTunes interface?

Where is the “apps” menu item in the new iTunes interface? I can no longer transfer files from my PC to my iPhone.
I just downloaded and installed the updated iTunes for my iPhone. I cannot find the “apps” menu item anywhere. How can I continue to download various types of files FROM my PC (Windows 7) TO my iPhone? I previously did this by clicking on the “apps” menu item and going from there. I cannot find the “apps” anywhere on the new iTunes. Thanks.

Tonefox, no it's not under "Music" but I did some more digging and found where Apple has "hidden" Apps on their latest iTunes for PC. You need to click on "iPhone" (upper right menu item) to display more menue items, of which Apps is one of them. When I had clicked on "iPhone" before, I mistakenly closed the the iPhone option from view because I clicked on the up arrow next to iPhone, instead of just iPhone. Once you click on iPhone, the options look similar to what they did in the earlier version of iTunes and you can easily find Apps.

X220 Screen Blanking out

Hi,
I have a problem on my X220 where the screen blanks out.
Here's how it happens.
First, the system hangs, noticably (like freezes for about half a second)
Then the screen goes completely black
And then comes back on
None of my programs are closed or reset (Chrome, Gtalk etc.) and only thing that seems to be different is that the Lenovo Power Manager/Wireless Manager Icons seem to have reset.
Anybody know what could be causing this?
(if it matters, I have my pagefile disabled, but have 8GB of ram installed. I closely monitor my ram usage and it has never been above 4.2 GB)

AT: tocirahl
I had the same issue you describe. After booting into WIndows the system blanks a few times and eventually hangs. Sometimes I can just see a popup appearing showing "Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered".
The strange thing is that my system has this issue ever since I got yhe machine and first powered it on. Even completion of the factory windows installation was not possible due to this crash. I found out that when the Graphics Driver was installed the system would crash.
I have send it back for repair yesterday and I am still waiting to hear the cause of this blanking/crashing issue. Quite anoying because the system is not usable at all.
Any suggestions what this issue can be?!

If i create a new itunes on a new computer and then connect my iphone to it will it clear my phone or simply copy all apps and items to the new itunes?

If i create a new itunes on a new computer and then connect my iphone to that computer will it clear my phone or simply copy all apps and items to the new Itunes?

Do not create a new iTunes account... accounts cannot be merged.
Install iTunes on the new computer.
Syncing of iDevices does not import content to a computer, the sync is one way from computer to iDevice.

Screen Saver when calling and need to use the Keypad, the screen saver doesn't detect the phone has left the ear and blanks out the screen. Even ending a call is difficult as the screen blanks out within seconds

I have to use the Keypad a lot when making calls. Make the call, the Robot then asks to enter a number for a service, pull the phone down from the ear, the screen may light up for a second, but then the screen saver cuts in, blanking the screen out. Sometimes you hit the Home Key to awaken the sccreen, enter your number and then back to the ear to hear the next set of instructions. Back and forth just trying to enter the options is a pain. Sometimes even trying to end the call, the screen blanks out and you fight to try and end a call.
If I use the Speaker function the keypad works; the speakler phone is not alway appropriate.
It appears that the phone gyro, doesn't detect the phone has moved from the ear to the viewing angle. This wasn't an issue until recently and I can't remeber if it's the iPhone 5 or one of the updates. It definitly wasn't there earlier on, as I threw away an Windows 6.5 phone for the same problem.
I'm not sure if it's a hardware or software (design) issue.

It is not the gyro. This has everything to do with the iPhone's prioximity sensor.
Are you using a case that may be blocking or partially blocking the proximity sensor? If you are using the case, remove the case prior to the next call to see if the same occurs without the case.

Screen blanks out when pushed tilted beyond 90 degrees

HP Pavilion 4t - 1000, Vista OS. Screen blanks out when pushed beyond 90 degrees, i.e., vertical position, , No change has been made in software, battery run down and has been replaced with identical battery from HP.

A very high percentage of the time this is from a punched or crushed cable that leads from the mother board, through the left hinge and up to the top of the screen in the back. I got a cable from China off eBay for $4.99 + $2.99 out of country shipping (from China).

Sometimes my safari screen blanks out in certain spaces?

My safari screen blanks out in certain spaces. The graphics on the webpage will disappear and reappear when I hover the mouse over them? Do I have a virus?

Unless you are doing this in Windows the best way to get an answer would be to go to the iMac support area. Click on the Support Communities.
If you have an older one then go to the front page and click on Support and select the one you have.
With what little information you gave a guess would be your video card may be going out? Zap the PRAM and reset the SMC? The User Guide on how to do it is also there.
As far as the e-mail notifications I couldn't tell you.

IMac screen blanks out

My iMac screen blanks out. I watch live TV on it. I hear the sound in the background but no picture. How do I fix this problem?
Also, Where do I see my reply if someone replies. Do I have to use the search box to look for my question? I selected email notification yesterday. I got 144 emails from the community. I just want to receive the answer for my question not the whole community. This forum is kind of confusing.
anyone please....
Thanks.
