Blue display or too much contrast

after 6 months happy usage, my Ipad2 has suddenly taken on a very blue tint. It looks like the contrast setting has been turned way up. I have fiddled with the brightness settings and the accessibility setting ie white on black, but no luck. I have even updated to IO6 hoping that would fix the problem

Make an appointment at your local apple store and have them take a look at it.

  • Macbook CD2 too much contrast?

    Hey all, I just sold my white Macbook for a Black Macbook CD2. One difference I have noticed is the display in the CD2 models (I'm on my second in a week...) seem washed out...like too much contrast...but there is no contrast adjustment I can find. Any thoughts?? Maybe the screen is just brighter then the previous models?

    There is a color calibration in System Prefs.
    Go to System Preferences.
    Go to "Displays" icon
    Select Color Tab at the top
    I put all my Mac's on the PC/Television Color calibration. The screen seems to have more contrast. To get basic PC/Television Color below are the steps (note: you are just making another profile, you can always got back to the standard Mac LCD colorization)
    Select Calibrate Option to the right
    Select continue
    Select 2.2 for PC and Television Color
    Select continue for Target White Point
    Name the profile

  • Satellite A50-543, too much contrast

    Hi,
    I bought an A50-543 yesterday.
    After starting the Notebook, Ive saw that the machine has too much contrast.
    I changed the Gamma Correction Settings.
    But in the default settings, the machine has to much contrast.
    We couldnt compare this Notebook with another one from the same Series, cause we dont have another one !
    The display is too brilliant but if I adjust the Gamma Settings, all is ok.
    I think thats the Picture has to be normal without changing the Gamma Settings.
    What do you think, is this Normal or not ?
    Regards

    Hi,
    in my opinion you could try to compare two drivers.
    At first deinstall the actual driver, then install the original graphic driver from the tools&utilities CD, run the system for a test and remember the contrast.
    After that deinstall the driver and install the newest driver for your graphic card from https://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com
    Install this and compare the contrast to the orinigal driver before!
    At every driver install try the standard default installation routine!.
    Try it, compare it and kepp me posted!

  • Too much contrast

    Don't know if this fits here but...
    Suddenly, my Powerbook's LCD display has changed and shows so much contrast that I cant see grays and there is too much whites. I cant correct this with the brightness control or the "Calibration: in Displays. Tried restarting several times, but looks same. Is this a hardware or software problem? Any suggestions welcome...

    Plot thickens...in an effort to fix the contrast problem, we replaced the 256MB RAM module with a 512MB module. It froze on boot twice, then successfully booted but only showed a 256MB module. We exchanged the memory for new memory, and this time it always froze or kernel paniced during boot.
    I returned the original 256MB RAM module, and we are at least back to where we were -- system works, but too much contrast.
    I bought PC133 RAM as described on Apple's site. Hm. Time to write off this old iBook?

  • Photshop Elements 9 Interface has too much contrast

    Hi.  I like the new version 9.  But I don't like the interface.  Why did they change it.  It was great in Photoshop Elements 7.  And they even had a option to adjust the appearance option.  Not now though.  To me it has too much contrast.  Why did they have to leave out that option.  The new interface is too bright and too dark.  Oh well.  I guess I will have to get use to it.  I wish CS4 had a interface like Photoshop 7.  Here's a screenshot of Photoshop 7. 

    Hi.  I will get the new version.  But I just wish it could have the option to change the interface like Elements 7.  The best looking version in my opinion.  They should have made CS5 look like Elements 7 too.  Black interface is the new thing.  Not dull dingy gray like CS5 is.  It looks like the Windows XP classic themes.  Boring.  I like subtle black like beautiful Elements 7.

  • 27" LED display drawing too much USB power?

    I'm having the infamous "USB device is drawing too much power" issue, but in my case it's a little different. Whenever I plugin the USB cord from my 27" LED display to the MacBook, it results in the above error (too much power, USB is disabled).
    I've narrowed down the following:
    1. Happens on two different MacBook Pros.
    2. Happens when LED display is powered from different outlets.
    3. It seems 2 of the 3 USB ports on the back of the display are not working.
    This started happening after I moved about a month ago and reconnected everything, including a USB Hub I was using previously. I also have a SD card reader, all of which was plugged in and ready to go. When I powered up everything, the lights on the Card Reader and USB were actually pulsing, which didn't look right so I immediately powered everything down. Checked all connections and tried again. Same thing happened, so I unplugged the card reader and USB hub.
    At this point, I had my keyboard plugged into the monitor which is how it was prior (before my move). I powered up everything again and while waiting for the keyboard to come on (the keys are illuminated), I noticed it was actually VERY hot - the underside of the keyboard. So I unplugged it and had a little bit of a sonofa***** moment. The keyboard seemed fried. It wouldn't come on for anything, so I went and bought a new one.
    Soon as I get home, I plugged the new keyboard directly into the laptop and ignored the external LED display. Everything seemed to work fine, so I tried plugging the external monitor in, but soon as I connected the USB cord... this error pops up every single time.
    Is this a USB cord issue (on the LED display) or what?  I'm at a loss of what could have happened, since when I moved everything was transported very carefully. The LED display was even in it's original retail box, so nothing was damaged in the move, USB cord included.
    Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. I know ultimately I may need to bring it in for repair (still within warranty as I purchased the display in May 2011)... but I'm trying this first incase anyone has any ideas that could help me avoid that hassle.

    Smc reset sometimes addresses some power issues.
    It is possible that when that first keyboard failed when plugged into the back of the display it somehow damaged the display usb ports.
    If you are under warrantee, take it to apple and let them deal with it.

  • Calibrated, but too much contrast? Cinema Display 30"

    Hello,
    I have a 30" Cinema Display at work an love it, but things have started to go a bit strange and I'm afraid something is off.
    When I calibrate it (using apples built in tool) I have to peg the first two steps almost all the way to the bottom to get the apple logo to vanish, and after completing the calibration everything is VERY high contrast.
    The logos in the doc are so contrasty and dark they are practically screaming!
    I am using the monitor for processing images for print, so I'm really afraid I'm going to make some real mistakes here. I normally use apple's standard gamma, but switched to native because the image is a little lighter.
    I'm hoping for some suggestions or advice, I'm at a loss!
    Thanks for your help!

    Go into System Preferences/Universal Access and, under the Seeing tab, check that the Contrast slider is all the way to the left (Normal).

  • White pixels and too much contrast on new touch

    hi all!
    i got a new touch today. i allready have one but this one i won in a contest. anyway, when after having synced over alot of content i started noticing som strange things about the screen. first of all, some colors looks washed out and too bright. it has nothing to do with the settings since i allways had my old one on full brightness and it never looked like this.
    then i when i looked closer at the screen i saw alot of white pixels that disapeared and apeared depending on how i hold the touch. here is a pic of the pixels (note that the screen is not this bright, my cam just made it like that for some reason):
    http://img182.imageshack.us/img182/8443/shiiiit012copyqv1.png
    so is this what people call dead pixels? would i get a new touch if i send it to apple you think? or are there anything els i could do? we dont have any official apple stores where i live. thanks alot in advance!

    Did you get this problem fixed? I have only had my ipod touch for about 30 days and it too lost it's contrast. It now looks white washed, with little contrast. There is no true black, white or gray, and the colors seemed washed out. I am considering simply taking it in for repair. What did you do? Thanks for any information you can provide.

  • My screen has too much contrast

    There is something wrong with my screen and it is hard to describe. The contrast or brightness is off and I have tried callibrating it using the color calibrator at least 100 times and it does not change it. When i turn my computer on, for the first 5 seconds or so it has normal color but then it goes back to this messed up brightness or something and i just need it to go back to normal somehow. Is there any way i can just go to restore default settings or something? Anything will help.

    Just had to reply as well. I had the exact same problem as Jenny after my 16-month old son got ahold of the keyboard. It was driving me crazy! Your fix solved it right away. Thank you sooo much.

  • List view item display time is taking too much

    Hi,
         I am working in a sharepoint2013 project. In our project , list view item display time is taking too much in IE8 sp2013 64 bit environment. Can anyone help me to resolve this issue?
    Thanks,
    Nabhendu

    Hi Nabhendu,
     We had something similar with our SP2013 and IE8 32-bit. It seems that IE8 was in Compatible mode which make it IE7, which is unsupported by SP2013 due to HTML5.
    Issue : List view especially datasheet view which has been moved from ActiveX to HTML5 had very slow response on SP2013 and IE8 32-bit.
    Resolution : Try Chrome and see if its CSS/Masterpage or SP2013 issues performance issue.
    We deployed masterpage and css which was used in our SP2007 site with minor changes, but later we figured out that we need to make major changes in order to work with IE8 and SP2013.
    Try Indexing Columns.
    check how many look up columns are used.
    Hopefully that may help you..
    Thanks,

  • On my MacBook Pro with Retina Display, Why does the "USB Devices Disabled Unplug the device using too much power to re-enable USB devices" keep coming up after I unplugged the usb device?

    On my MacBook Pro with Retina Display 15", that I purchased a few weeks ago, started coming up with the following message on my desktop:
    "USB Devices Disabled Unplug the device using too much power to re-enable USB devices".
    I unplugged the device and the message still keeps coming up.
    This is what I have done so far to troubleshoot:
    I shut down the laptop. When booting up I pressed the command+option+p+r at the same time. It comes up with a menu to reinstall OSX, Get help online, Run Disk Utility, etc. I choose the disk utility and repair the disk and then restarted.
    The message keeps popping up and I can't seem to get rid of it. Why does the message keep popping up even though I don't have any devices hooked up to the laptop at all? Any help to reenable my usb ports and get rid of the messaage would be helpful.

    I talked to Apple Support and we at least stopped the bleeding, a little bit. These are the troubleshooting steps I did before I contacted Apple Support:
    1. Reinstalled OSX
    2. Restore the last known good Time Machine Backup.
    This did not fix my issue, so I called Apple Support and they told me this:
    1. Turn Power off.
    2. Wait 15 seconds.
    3. Plug in Magsafe adapter.
    4. Wait 15 seconds.
    5. Hold down the Shift+Option+Power Button for 20-30 seconds.
    6. Turn Power back on.
    Ok, this stopped the bleeding a little, but as soon as I plugged in a Apple USB Superdrive
    and a Apple Mini Displayport to VGA Adapter. This "USB Devices Disabled" pop-up pops up like every 30 minutes now. At least, it is not constantly popping up after I close it, so I guess it will do for the temporary. Going to contact Apple support, later, though to see what else can be done.

  • I have a 27" iMac with a broken hard drive. Is there a way to convert the existing hardware into a display monitor without too much technical work?

    I have a 27" iMac with a broken hard drive. Is there a way to convert the existing hardware into a display monitor without too much technical work?

    You don't state what iMac it is or what you want to use it for an external display with so we cannot answer the question. But without a bootable drive, no you cannot. However you can get the internal HD replaced or you can connect an external HD and boot from it. Without some basics about the computer it's impossible question to answer. However you may find what need in Apple's Target Display Mode: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • IPad 3 Blue yeti too much power warning

    unable to use Blue Yeti USB mic with garageband on iPad 3  "too much power needed" warning

    I have an almost identical problem with a mac mini connected to a Dell monitor usb hub .. eveytime the computer wakes up I get this message, however no usb devices are turned on (other than keyboard and mouse) and the monitor hub is connected to a webcam( not on ) and a printer (also not on ). The problem seems to be the hub because if I connect the keyboard to the hub I need to use the mouse to wake the mac up. I suspect this happens when the dell monitor is off or goes into powersave mode. Once the mac and dell are both awake everything functions normally so the message seems to be erroneous .. I'd just like to stop it appearing ... any Ideas?
