Black rectangles in Gallery on Lumia 930

Can't see some pictures on Lumia 930, but the files appear to be there. Also they upload to a MacBook Pro, but appear as black rectangles. What is going on?

I've only ever seen this happen due to corrupted or removed memory cards, which obviously isn't the case with a Lumia 930. I believe it happens where a picture has been removed but the phone's gallery database still thinks it is there, so it displays a "blank" image.
There is no photo there any more, perhaps you deleted it, but for some odd reason the phone still thinks that a file is there. What you are seeing is a ghost of a picture that is no longer there, so all you an do is delete these "blank" images.

Black screen during calling with the lumia 930

I just received the lumia 930 a few days ago. Perfect device however every time I want to make a call the screen goes black. I had a lumia 920 without this problem. Is there a solution? (without blowing the dust, restoring to factory settings or bringing the device back to the store?). This is such a devastating problem as it is almost impossible to just answer the phone. A have no protective cover etc.

Eath4306, so difficult to say.
I saw that if I use a cloth to clean (or simulate cleaning the display on top of the sensor) and bright light then it comes back for a few seconds... enough to be able to end the call. Not able in any way to dial keys as for example to join a conference call.
I also checked to see if is possible to make an application to disable the sensor... However, so far I couldn't see such option. Every application will ask OS to provide access to devices, and no other app can interfere there. Although I have plan to just build an app to test all phone sensors.
This proximity sensor seems very sensitive. It could be calibration issue, which then should be fixed by firmware. But Microsoft should consider this and at least allow the possibility to disable in the Phone app the proximity feature. I could live very well without it. In the past I was just pressing the power button and screen will go off.
So, Microsoft/Nokia, here are people that believe in you! Do not disappoint us!

PS
I have anyway in plan whenever available this week to go to shop and ask for replacement. This time I know what I have to test when i buy it...

Lumia 930 green colour running across screen

My Lumia 930 has a green colour running across the screen which started right to corner and slowly has run down. Over the space of a few months it has now almost completely covered the screen. Only really visible when the screen is white, in a movie or start screen you don't notice it.. I figured I'll need to change the screen but just wondered what it could be.. Nothing on the net about this phenomena...

Hi blakkpanter,
Welcome to the Microsoft Mobile Community. When did you notice this issue? Did something happen prior to this issue? Try adjusting the colour tint on your phone. Follow the steps here. Also, check if all your phone's system apps are already updated. See this link. If the issue persists, try rebooting your phone by pressing and holding the power and volume down keys simultaneously for 10 to 15 seconds. You may need to set the date and time after this operation. Let us know the outcome.

Lumia 930 blank screen during call

My Lumia 930 screen goes blank during all calls. Iti is black whether the phone is next to my ear or not. In practice I cannot end a call or do anything else cause the screen keyboard is not available.
My son has a Lumia 920 which had very much the same problem but it was somehow fixed when the device was at Nokia service last year because of some camera problems. No idea still about the root cause of that case either.
Any idea how to fix my blank screen problem?

I have the exact same issue with my brand new Lumia 930 - the screen goes black (a bit randomly) when talking on the phone. I used a trick decribed in a post with the same issue on a 920, which is to firmly wipe just above the N in Nokia in the top right corner on the phone (where the sensors are) which helps. However, it is not really fixing the problem.
Is there anybody knowing another solution but to return the phone, which feels a bit cumbersome to say the least?
Thanks,
Erik

Black rectangles after 10.4.5 Upgrade?

Help! I just did the automatic update to 10.4.5 and now I have black rectangles around many of the field windows, desktop icons, etc. It's especially annoying while using Quark.
If I open a window box, the black rectangle superimposes itself over my layout.
Is anyone else having the same problem?
Can I uninstall 10.4.5 and go back to the former version?

katarina,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Mac OS X 10.4: Computer speaks unexpectedly, or a black box unexpectedly appears around a file, folder, or other item: If a black outline (or box) unexpectedly appears around a file, folder, icon, button, or other item when you click it, VoiceOver is probably enabled. Your computer might also be unexpectedly speaking items that you click on.
If you don't want VoiceOver on, turn it off in the Universal Access preference pane, or by pressing Command-F5 (or Fn-Command-F5 if you have an iBook or PowerBook).;~)

B&W G3 gets Black Rectangle on Boot - Hangs

My B&W G3 will not boot OS X 10.4 anymore. It worked fine before. Now when it boots I get the Apple logo then I get a solid black rectangle in the middle of the screen and it hanges.
I put the 10.4 DVD in the drive and pressed C on boot. It starts to boot from the DVD then bang I get the solid black rectangle.
I took all the cards out except the video card. I droped the RAM to 1 stick (256 MB). No help.
It is booting from an Apple 6 GB IDE drive.
It is a revision 1 board.
I replaced the battery, pressed the CUDA ect.
I put in OS 9.2 CD and tried to boot from it as well. No luck. It hangs as well.
No network is connected.
I tried USB keyboard & Mouse and ADB. No help.
Why am I getting the solid black rectangle on the screen after the Apple logo?
Thanks!
Tony

Why are iCal alarms coming up with a black rectangle?

Why are iCal alarms coming up with a black rectangle? I'm running 10.3.9 and iCal v. 1.5.2. This started after I did software updates this week.
iMac Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I solved it in my case by going to System Preferences>Internet & Network>QuickTime>Advanced, then clicking the checkbox to Enable Flash. I also had to quit and restart iCal.
I think the Quicktime715 update that recently came out had something to do with it.
It seems that the black box is supposed to be a movie of a vibrating alarm clock, and apparently that movie uses Flash.
I hope this fix works for you too.

Lumia 930 location links can not be open by Here M...

Most of Lumia models sending and receiving location or favorite location from Here maps by SMS or email opens links by Here Maps app. Lumia 930 open those links on internet explorer and it is impossible to manage from there. Is there setting telling Here Maps App to open them link as most of other models of Lumia?

I've searched the web and there realy seams to be an issue with Lumia camera 5 and Denim, as it is mentioned also on other sites. I think we need to be patient and wait until problem is fixed.
Maybe any moderator is reading this and could contact developer to clearify...

Can't connect to Eduroam on my WP 8 Nokia Lumia 930

Hi!
So, I just got the new Lumia 930, which I am very happy with, however I can not seem to get it to connect to Eduroam at the university I work at. When I go to the page where I am suppose to 'join' or 'download' whatever I need, 'securew2', (using the phone)
it detects that I am using a Windown Phone, but it only just gives me settings to 'configure my device'. Such as:
SecurityType:WPA2-Enterprise
Encryption: AES
EAP Type: TTLS
Inner EAP Type: PAP
CA Certificate: UTN-USERFirst-Hardware, AddTrust etc..
When I then go into WiFi and click on Eduroam, I try to log in with my user-credentials. I can also look through a list of certificates but none of them seem to be the right one. The only choice I really get is the EAP-method, where I change it from PEAP
MA-CHAP v2 (which did not work) to TTLS. Then I am asked to verify that it is the right network, which it is - with the name of the university and everything - I click OK....and then there is a full stop. I only get a 'can't connect' message. Very frustrating.
I talked to the IT people at here, and they verified my user credentials, and told me that people with Windows Phones had trouble connecting to Eduroam.
As should be abundantly clear by now I am technologically challenged, so please help help help me fix this. If for no other reason then to silence my snickering, iPhone-loving colleagues.

Hello,
Did you find a solution for this issue?
I just bought a Nokia Lumia 735 and I have the same problem. Unable to connect the Eduroam network in my laboratory. It seem that I have to put an other certificate which is not on my device (from TERENA), and I did not find how to do it.
It is a bit disappointing to be blocked on such a new device. My previous phone, an old Iphone 3gs, was able to connect very easily...
Please help, or I will regret my choice to switch on Windows Phone (if I add the poor choice regarding the apps on the Store...).
Regards.

Viewing PDF in preview, black rectangles around links

I've created a PDF in Microsoft Word 7.0, the PDF looks great in all applications except Preview on a mac. It would seem that all links in the PDF have a black rectangle around them, this only seems to be an issue in Preview, is this a known issue? As near as I can tell, no other applications seem to be interpreting these links as having boxes around them, this would lead me to believe that the problem does not lay with how the PDF was created.

Hi,
Can you try any other PDF file in Preview (not the one you created)

Does anyone know what the black rectangle about the receiver on the 4S is for? I want to put a screen cover on my phone but don't know if that should be covered or not.

Black rectangle follows cursor

I just updated to 10.4.8 and when the computer restarted I now have a black rectangle that is centered on my cursor and follows the cursor around the screen. It is just the black outline of a rectangle. Any ideas?

Hi, kmroxo.
This is a bug in the Mac OS X 10.4.8 update. For details and the workaround, see my "Black rectangle appears after Mac OS X 10.4.8 Update" FAQ.
Good luck!

Black rectangle on startup

I removed all the cables from the back of my Blue and White G4 (10.4.11) to do a spot of spring cleaning. On trying to restart I get a chime, the apple logo with spinning ball, then a black rectangle appears and the ball stops spinning
I have:-
1. zapped the PRAM
2. started from the install disc and repaired permissions using Disc Utility
3. started in Safe Mode and run TechTools Deluxe
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Tony

Hi-
I assume it may also be accompanied by a grayish screen.
This would be a kernel panic:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1392
Since you just did some plugging/unplugging, I would remove all cables again, open the tower and reseat the graphics card.
Reconnect monitor, keyboard and mouse only, and try starting again.
If still a no go, I would open it once again, and reseat the RAM.
While you're in there, make sure all other connections are tight.
Reconnect and try starting.
If that doesn't do it, you will have to look deeper:
