  • I have a red vertical line on the right side of my screen and it will not go away tried restarting my computer and that didn't help at all, please help me with this problem it is kind of annoying

    I have a red vertical line on the right side of my screen and it will not go away tried restarting my computer and that didn't help at all, please help me with this problem it is kind of annoying

    If it's a thin 1 pixel wide vertical line it's highly likely it could be caused by a defective LCD.
    One quick basic way to check is to note the position of the line. Then go to System Preferences, Displays, and lower the resolution. If ther line moves it's on the video and the logic board or video card if fitted is likely to be defective. If the line stays in the same position it's likely to be an LCD fault. Either way to have it repaired you'll need to visit an Apple store or AASP.
    The worst offender for this problem is the Late 2006 17" iMac. FOC replacement of the LCD used to be covered by a quality program, but it's now ended.

  • I phone screen is blank, have tried holding both buttons but not working

    I phone screen is blank, have tried holding both buttons to reset but still will not work any suggestions?

    Hey damien1979,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPhone 4. To completely isolate the issue, you may want to follow these steps:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    1. Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    2. Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion.
    Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    3. Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    4. After at least 15 minutes, if:
                   - The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen. Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
                   - The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
                   - Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    5. If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
                   - If the display turns on, go to step 4.
                   - If the display remains black, go to next step.
    6. Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    7. If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • After updating to itunes 10 i now get an error message saying there is a problem with the windows insaller package - I have tried all the suggestions but nothing works for me - have I lost all my itunes forever?

    After updating to itunes 10 I now get an error message that says there is a problem with the windows installer package. I have tried all the things that others suggested but cannot download itunes at all now. Have I lost itunes forever?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • HT2693 my iphone has froze up and it will not do anything, i am getting a blank black screen and it will not turn off completely or turn on.  i dk what to do.  any information would help greatly.

    My daughter was playing a game on my husbands phone and it froze on her.  The screen displayed the turnoff slide bar or cancel, he tried to hit cancel and it did nothing, so he slid the slide to turn off.  when he did that he proceeded to turn off, but never completely shut off, and now the phone will do nothing!  I have tried restoring and also hooking up to itunes.  i do not know what to do in this situation.  any help would be greatly appreciated.  i dont know if there is a way to take the back off to remove the battery.  if you could give me some information that would be great.  thank you

    Try a reset by pressing and holding the Power and Home buttons for 15-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.
    Was the battery replaced by Apple or an authorized repair facility?  If not, and any warranty existed, that warranty is now void.

  • "Firefox is already running but not responding" - have tried all the usual solutions.

    The message I'm getting is the standard: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding." I'm using a PC with Windows 7.
    I've tried:
    - Opening task manager and manually ending the process. This didn't work because the process is not listed in applications, processes, or services.
    - Deleting the parent/lock file. This didn't work because the file is not in any of the firefox folders. I've checked APPDATA/Local/Firefox as well as APPDATA/Roaming/Firefox, and the original install folder just to be thorough. It's not a hidden file either - I have those set to display.
    - Creating a new profile and importing settings from the old one. I can't import settings because the old profile is still running.
    - Restarting before and after each of these potential solutions, including restarting in safe mode, shutting off the computer and waiting a bit before restarting, etc.
    All I really want back are my bookmarks, which I've spent quite a while creating. Unfortunately, there is no file I can find for the default profile that has the bookmarks stored. When I created a new profile, a folder appeared with its name in the APPDATA/Roaming/Firefox folder, with all of the bookmarks, etc. There is no such folder for the default profile though - which is the one I want. I've even tried switching to Chrome and importing bookmarks, but that doesn't work because the bookmarks can't be imported while Firefox is still running.

    Does a new profile work?<br />
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows
    If there is no profile present then you also get that error about "Firefox is already running but not responding"
    If you uninstalled Firefox at any time in the past and removed your personal data or deleted that profile folder yourself then you no longer have a profile to start with or restore files from.

  • I just added LG GP 60 Dvd writer to my mac and it will not open when I press the button to release the dv

    I just added an LG GP60 DVD writer to my Macbook Pro and the the drive will not release the disk when I try to ejecct it...any one can help?

    I only got a disc for windows and I have read that for mac it is a plug and play. It works fine when I put the disc in but when I go to remove it I have to unplug it from the USB connection and replug and then the light comes on and I can hit the release button.  I want to be able to hit the release button and the drive door just pops out so I can remove my CD.

  • Using a PC; converting a Word 2010 document to PDF; upon completion the PDF document has a dark and/or patterned background; I have tried "removing" the background but that has not worked.

    Can someone help me remove what appears to be a 'background' that is created when converting a Word 2010 doc to a PDF format.  I am using the 'save as' method and selecting PDF as the file type.  I have used this method for over a year and have just had this "background" problem today.  It is not happening on all documents; so far it's just happened on 2 resumes but not on the accompanying cover letters which I think is very odd.
    Thanks for any help you can provide!

    Sara –
    I’ve attached the converted documents so you can see what I mean.  The Word document was not shaded in these ways; it was just a white background…or no background at all.
    I don’t know if these were created from scanned documents.
    Thanks!

  • Display suddenly changed I have tried changing in utilities but nothing works.  The print is enormous and out of focus the screen has shrunk in width but programs open too stretched in length? What can I do?

    The display suddently changed two days ago.  Everthing exploded in size.  I have tried changing the contrast but nothing works.  The display screen becomes either too wide, too long, or too narrow and in all cases the font is extra large and out of focus.  What can I do please   I am really disappointed since my iMac is only 2.5 months old.

    Don't think so.  But tried it anyway.  I have been into utilities and tried different contrast settings now I don't know what is the right one.  But no matter which one I tried I have either about a third of the screen black, with display centered as though hidden behind the black.  What is going on?
    Also, I have to say that I can't understand why there is no information anywhere on what the correct settings should be.
    Any ideas Capt?

    Hi Goofy Goat,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you have done some great troubleshooting for your iPod nano that is not responding. In this situation, if resetting it did not resolve, I would suggest restoring the iPod back to its factory settings and then sync your content back onto it from iTunes. Please use the following article as a resource for restoring.

  • Chose a photo to print, then the screen went grey (spinning white icon), and iPhoto will not respond

    I chose a picture to print, but instead of a print dialogue box, the screen went grey and iPhoto will not respond.  I have even shut down my iMac completely, but when I relaunch iPhoto, I get the same screen (grey with the spinning "thinking" icon).  I am running the latest version of Yosemite on the iMac.  Thanks for your help.

    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair the database  and if necessary rebuild your database
