Blue screen tint with Yosemite 10.10.1 - MBP 15" Mid 2010 Model 6,2
Who is having this issue, have you resolved it, and how did you do it: Coinciding with Yosemite 10.10.1. my entire screen has begun to take on a blue tint. This was not an issue with 10.10.0. This is a MacBook Pro 6,2 with 4GB system RAM. Graphics is with built-in Intel HD Graphics (and standard 288MB VRAM), and the standard NVidia GeForce GT330M graphics in PCI (and 256MB VRAM).
The blue cast appears when using Microsoft Outlook 2011 (back to normal when it quits), Adobe Photoshop CS6 (sometimes yes, sometimes no), and intermittently when running Firefox or Safari (where the blue cast seems to coincide with invoking plug-ins). All of these applications are up to date.
Attempts to resolve this include:
1) Downloaded and installed the latest software updates for Outlook, Photoshop, Firefox and Safari. Made no difference.
2) System Preferences -> Displays -> Color -> Calibrate. I initially thought that the Color Sync profile had been corrupted, but the color was so 'off' that my attempt to manually recalibrate the screen could not go far enough. So I abandoned this.
3) System Preferences -> Energy Saver -> Automatic Graphics Switching. Checking Automatic Graphics Switching works, but un-checking it and the blue cast comes back immediately.
4) Running Disk Utilities -> Repair Permissions. Didn't work.
5) Cleared all caches using Onyx: Worked for 10 minutes, then blue came back
6) Reset PRAM: Worked for two days, now the blue is back.
Hi, I also have had this issue on my MBP 15' Mid 2015 but not since updating to Yosemite.
Recently I have upgraded the optical drive to a SSD with a fresh install of Yosemite and everything was working well until I installed Photoshop & Dreamweaver CC along with the latest Java. When I opened Dreamweaver for the first time the screen switched to a blue tint but reverted when the program was closed. When using the Spotify app, along with the blue tint I noticed some lines randomly distorted on the display.
I installed the above Nvidia driver and also uninstalled the Adobe Flash Player after reading on another old discussion there has been an issue with it leaking memory. Maybe there is a similar issue with the latest release? This seems to have fixed my problem, sorry I cannot say which one of the above worked, I completed both steps before restarting. I still need to reinstall a previous version of Flash player so I will get back if I have any updates.

No longer share my screen Mavericks with Yosemite
I can no longer share my screen Mavericks with Yosemite - buddies gone.
I am so depressed. I no longer have any buddies - where has the list gone?
In addition, I can no longer share screens. Everything is greyed out.
I gave someone a new 27-inch iMac 3.4GHz quad-core Intel Core i5, and the idiot upgraded to Yosemite (with it's Fisher Price icons and iPad like interface) before I even had a chance to introduce her to the world of mac.
I have no idea whether this upgrade is the cause, or something has changed that is blocking the ability for screen sharing etc. that I am too stupid and old to understand.
It all used to be so simple. It was called iChat. You messaged, shared screens, and video conferenced.
It was what Mac used to be about - ease of use, and reliable.
Now, nothing really works for long enough to get used to it, before it changes.
Helphi,
You need either an AIM Login or Jabber one to do this.
What were you using before ?

Windows 7 Blue Screen Issues With Alt-tabbing From WoW
As the title says, lately I've been having blue screens which are mostly caused by wow.
Previously I've had the occasional bsod (once a month or so) when alt tabbing, but it was pretty rare. However recently, I've had something more like 1 a day, usually caused by alt tabbing out of wow. It seems the longer I'm alt tabbed the more likely it
is to happen. I haven't experienced the same problem with any other game, although the occasional monthly ones usually happen when I'm changing my music as I alt tab out of League of Legends.
I downloaded bluescreenview and it appears the cause is some combination of win32k.sys as well as ntoskrnl.exe Based off the fact that it is happening more with a more demanding game, I'm guessing the problem is
most likely due to a bad stick of ram, but I'd like a second opinion.
I'll attach a few of the most recent dump files (the one today is slightly different than the ones last week which seems slightly odd).
http://puu.sh/8lVuH http://puu.sh/8lVtT http://puu.sh/8lVse
Thanks in advance for any help, and I hope image files are okay :)Thanks, and it's not, no. You can't exactly debug pictures :')
We have two consistent bug checks:
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION (3b)
This indicates that an exception happened while executing a routine that transitions from non-privileged code to privileged code.
This error has been linked to excessive paged pool usage and may occur due to user-mode graphics drivers crossing over and passing bad data to the kernel code.
BugCheck 3B, {c0000005, fffff80002e5301e, fffff88008945c70, 0}

^^ The exception occurred in nt!ExEnterCriticalRegionAndAcquireFastMutexUnsafe. This is a routine that first enters a critical region, and then acquires the specified fast mutex for the calling thread.
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (50)
This indicates that invalid system memory has been referenced.
Bug check 0x50 usually occurs after the installation of faulty hardware or in the event of failure of installed hardware (usually related to defective RAM, be it main memory, L2 RAM cache, or video RAM).
Another common cause is the installation of a faulty system service.
Antivirus software can also trigger this error, as can a corrupted NTFS volume.

Right, so the code wanted to write to 00000000`00000020 which as we can see above is a completely invalid address. The 1st parameter and cr2 however note we failed writing to address
fffff900c25efcf0. This does not make sense, and is essentially not logically possible.
The hardware was told to write to 00000000`00000020, and the hardware came back and said 'I cannot write to
fffff900c25efcf0'. Another way to think about it is if you kindly asked the waiter of your table for more water, he writes it down, but comes back and says 'I'm sorry, but we're all out of coffee'.
1. Uninstall any/all installed Asus bloatware, I for example see Asus PC Probe, and AI Suite.
2. Remove and replace avast! with Microsoft Security Essentials for temporary troubleshooting purposes as it may be causing conflicts:

3. If the above fails, you have faulty RAM.

Random Blue Screen Crash with 5S and iOS 8.1
Since upgrading to iOS 8.0 my iPhone 5S randomly gets blue screens and then crashes and goes into a loop of boot up, blue screen, reboot, blue screen, reboot...etc. My 5S did this again today when during my upgrade to iOS 8.1 via USB and I was forced to do a factory restore on it. The blue screen is still occurring after the restore and 8.1 upgrade. Is this a known issue? I was hoping this was going to get fixed with 8.1 but unfortunately, it doesn't look like it has.
Same here,
yesterday i updated my 6 plus 64gb with iTunes.
After the update, my phone crashes (blue screen) in games (Maze Runner) and Safari.
I tried to downgrade to ios 8.0 because i didn't had any problem with 8.0 but iTunes says that the file is not valid "iPhone7,2_8.0_12A365_Restore"
HELP Apple,
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.1, MGAH2ZD/A model -
Since I have installed Firefox 19.0 (first time installation and usage), my computer crashes several times a week: the Blue Screen Error comes up and I have to turn down my computer.
I've run all recommended system and disk checks. I also have Norton as anti-virus.
To my knowledge, Firefox is the only major modification I've made on my computer before the default started to occur.
It seems that other users have encountered similar problems with version 18 and reverting to version 17 (which I cannot do) seems to have solved their issues.
Occurences of Blue screen: when using Firefox, or while screen saver on, or etc.
Have you got reported issues of compatibility between Firefox 19 and MS XP when IE was the former internet browser?
What steps do you suggest I make?Blue screens can't be caused by Firefox, it is what is called a userspace program, which means it can't access the kernalspace, which is what causes bluescreens. There may be something else wrong with your computer:
Check for Windows updates
Scan for malware [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]
Run chkdsk
etc. -
Auto Accept with Screen Sharing with Yosemite Messages App
I take care of many of my family and friend's Macs and I'm really excited that screen sharing with 10.10 Yosemite through iMessage. I'm wondering if anyone know of a way to enrol their Macs into auto-accepting me to control the screen without the need for them to accept it. I know there was a way to do this back in the days of iChat.
Hi,
In Any Finder window use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
Select the Library that appears and the navigate to Application Scripts/com.apple.iChat
Double click the Auto Accept item to open in in the Script Editor (formerly AppleScript Editor)
You will note the Text section at the top is commented out by being between (* and then the text and then *) the stars and parentheses.
Later a single line is also commented out with a # symbol
In iChat the section for Auto Accepting Screen Sharing used to be commentated out (originally it was not even there)
You might decide to comment out the other lines leaving just the bits you want. (or Copy the AppleScript and alter the copy).
Then you can go to Messages > Preferences > General Section and select the AppleScript as the Messages Received item.
NOTE
I have had issue myself with the AppleScripts as they stand in Yosemite.
I have tried several of those that are Included and some that I have collected from iChat and all return and error messages about timing out at present.
Others have reported the same in various Threads here at the Apple Support Communities.
At present there does not seem to be a work around.

My ipod always crashes (blue screen) whensync with iTunes on my PC
i tried both latest version of iTunes and ipod update. It happens either way. Whenever I start sync'ing the songs from PC to my ipod (5G 60GB), the PC will hang with blue screen within a couple of minutes.
Anyone has similar experience and is aware of any solution? Many thanks.
AlexHello,
I have the latest Itunes and a IPOD CLASSIC updated.
Some songs i can play in itunes (MP3 CDRip 320 KBS) won't play in the ipod.
I don't know how to fix this problem.
I restored the ipod from the itunes and sync again, but the problem persist.
The sogs are Skipped when i try to play.
I find a fix for this problem: sync the music with mediamonkey.
ALL songs can be played in the ipod after sync with mediamonkey.
Is very strange this problem, maybe itunes generate this problem, because after aync with itunes many songs are skiped and won't play, but with mediamonkey sync the problem is solved. -
Blue screen crashes with specifc error starting to show up on restart
I keep getting blue screen crashes and as I start up the system I get this error constantly.
c:\users\computeruser\appdata\roaming\newnext.me\nengine.dll error can you please send me a fix for this issue.In order to assist you, we will need the .DMP files to analyze what exactly occurred at the time of the crash, etc.
If
you don't know where .DMP files are located, here's how to get to them:
1. Navigate
to the %systemroot%\Minidump folder.
2. Copy any and all
DMP files in the Minidump folder to your Desktop and then zip up these files.
3. Upload
the zip containing the .DMP files to Onedrive or a hosting site of your choice and paste in your reply. Prefered sites: Onedrive, Mediafire, Dropbox, etc. Nothing with wait-timers.
4 (optional): The type
of .DMP files located in the Minidump folder are known as Small Memory Dumps. In %systemroot% there will be what is known as a Kernel-Dump (if your system is set to generate). It is labeled MEMORY.DMP. The difference between Small Memory Dumps and Kernel-Dumps
in the simplest definition is a Kernel-Dump contains much more
information at the time of the crash, therefore allowing further debugging of your issue. If your upload speed permits it, and you aren't going against any strict bandwidth and/or usage caps, etc, the Kernel-Dump is the best choice. Do note that Kernel-Dumps
are much larger in
size due to containing much more info, which is why I mentioned upload speed, etc.
If
you are going to use Onedrive but don't know how to upload to it, please visit the following:
Upload
photos and files to Onedrive.
Please note that any "cleaner" programs such as TuneUp Utilities, CCleaner, etc, by default
will delete .DMP files upon use.
If
your computer is not generating .DMP files, please do the following:
1. Start > type %systemroot%
which should show the Windows folder, click on it. Once inside that folder, ensure there is a Minidump folder created. If not, CTRL-SHIFT-N to make a New Folder and name it Minidump.
2. Windows key + Pause
key. This should bring up System. Click Advanced System Settings on the left > Advanced > Performance > Settings > Advanced > Ensure there's a check-mark for 'Automatically manage paging file size for all drives'.
3. Windows key + Pause
key. This should bring up System. Click Advanced System Settings on the left > Advanced > Startup and Recovery > Settings > System Failure > ensure there is a check mark next to 'Write an event to the system log'.
Ensure Small Memory Dump is selected and ensure the path is %systemroot%\Minidump.
4. Double check that
the WERS is ENABLED:
Start > Search > type services.msc > Under the name tab, find Windows Error Reporting Service > If the status of the service is
not Started then right click it and select Start. Also ensure that under Startup Type it is set to Automatic rather than Manual. You can do this by right clicking it, selecting properties, and under General selecting startup type to 'Automatic', and then click
Apply.

Seems to me I've been through this in the past but don't recall the solution.
After a harddrive failure on my laptop I installed CS3 on my newly installed harddrive.
I then tried to open Premiere, it crashed with a Windows blue screen error message.
Then, I installed the latest CS3 patch and opened Premiere. While the files
were being cached(or whatever it's called) Premiere crashed again, same blue screen.
The blue screen went by pretty quickly, something about must shut down to prevent harm to computer.
Windows XP, intel duo core processor 2.0 GHz, 2GB RAM..same specs ran on with my old harddrive.Thanks, Harm. It will help in giving the shop some kind of direction because they miss things even though it is their actual job to know these things.
I've felt that it was running hot, they had mentioned re-appling thermal paste to the processor a couple days ago but didn't stress it.
There are 2 different blue screen issues and one is solved:
1. The original irreparable crash which prompted me getting a new HD.
2. The blue screen crash... on the NEW harddrive.... whenever I tried to open Premiere.(which apparently was solved when they re-installed
Windows a 2nd time on my brand new HD because my computer no longer Blue screen crashes when Premiere loads.
Addressing the heat issue could prevent future BSOD crashes and may have prevented the original crash.
Also, does BSOD refer to the irreparable crashes which render your HD useless or ANY crash where a blue screen appears? I have been using BSOD to refer to a complete/total/final HD crash.
I don't smoke but these series of mishaps may get me started.
