Border shows on screen

My Daily Edition PRS-900 started displaying a faint border, almost like a diminished screen size, in the upper right quadrant. The vertical part is a blank space that displaces print, the horizontal is a series of light gray lines, almost like a shadow border. It even appears when I select SHUTDOWN. The page displays normally except for this anomaly. UPDATE. Now the display looks like a picture frame and it has spread to cover over 1/3 of the page so it is unreadable. It stays visible even after selecting SHUTDOWN

Hello Bob,
if you are seeing this border even with the PRS-900 in the OFF position, it is possible it is a physical issue on the Screen itself since it appears to be spreading with movement.
First to ensure its not a software problem try a full reset,
https://us.en.kb.sony.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3162
next install the Update
http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/swu-list.pl?mdl=PRS900
if neither of these resolves your issue contact us for service options.

  • Photoshop CS5: border in full screen mode

    I ran this by in the User forums. Now I think I should file it as a bug.
    I use full screen mode in PS. It's important to me,especially when I take screenshots.
    Photoshop CS5 shows a border in full screen. Something CS4 or even Bridge CS5 doesn't do. I've attached an example:
    My video card is not detected by CS5 (or CS4) so the GPU options are grayed out in Preferences. I could shut off aero...but I like the functions it provides and I don't think I should switch in and out for one program. If any of the programmers here look at the situation....I'd like to know if they can fix it in a future update release.

  • White Border around the screen?  1/2 inch...

    I have a white border around the screen, very noticable with any dark background...
    Whats the deal with this?
    Could this cause the display brightness to have to be turned up all the way just to get a good solid picture...?
    This is not acceptable?

    The lack of information, feedback, confirmation, etc that apple is famous for is exactly why I am deathly afraid of ordering the new 17" mbp. I have been stealing my girlfriends' peecee to catch up on emails and websites since I sold my old 15" mbp a couple months ago.
    I was just about to pull the trigger and buy the new 17" mbp until the "delay", again no specific information given out by apple. Some people were charged secondary charges and had ship dates of the day of the announcement of the delay - which would logically dictate that there were plenty of machines that had to be un-packed, cracked open and "updated". So with all the unibody related issues, all the 9600 related issues, and all the screen issues of the 15" led, I am not sure i'll be able to play guinea pig for apple... yet again...

    Bottom line, I'm hoping for a C86 or C87 to show up. Maybe that's hoping for too much.

    Hello All,
    I have a 15" i7 Macbook Pro from early 2011. The past few weeks, it has been getting increasingly difficult to get on my computer. It takes the mac laptop two or three tries to boot successfully. It would turn on, show gray screen, shut down, turn on again, show gray screen, shutdown, and then turn on, show gray screen, before it can finally get to the dark gray log-in screen. Even when I finally get logged in to start working, thinking it would be okay now, it shuts down randomly.
    I've ruled out the possibility of a software problem because I've just done a clean re-install of Mac OS X Mavericks on my computer just yesterday.
    I did upgrade the RAM recently, about a month and a half ago, from 4GB to 16GB, I went to the apple store four days after that upgrade to have them do a hardware test, and clean the inside of my laptop, which helped with previous heat issues. When they did the hardware test, the hardware was all registered as fine from their system.
    I've tried resetting the SMC, PRAM, and doing the internet recovery hardware test, but to no avail. I thought I could at least find out what parts needed to be replaced from the hardware test but it seems that when the hardware test is almost finished, the computer just shuts down, So I am unable to see the results.
    My computer is also having battery issues, under battery condition, it says "replace now," parts have been ordered, waiting for arrival. But if the battery health is low, it should still boot up fine, it would just hold a significantly less charge.
    Could this be a hard drive issue?
    Has anyone had similar symptoms and how was it resolved?
    Does anyone know what I can do to alleviate this issue?
    I haven't had time to take it to Apple because I'm currently taking a 21 credit semester academically. I'm an art and design student so my computer is basically the bane of my existence. Help! Any constructive advice is welcomed!
    Thank you so much for your input!

    It was not legitimately unlocked by the carrier it was originally locked to. ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
    In order to allow it to be used on a different carrier, the phone was hacked or jailbroken. An unauthorized modification was made to the phone. That modification has damaged the phone. You can not get support for it here or from Apple.

  • My Imac is showing gray screen with red line when booting and restarts again

    My Imac is showing gray screen with red line when booting and restart again, I can load it in windows 7 safe mode with red lines across the display, pls help

    The graphic card is damaged. You can't do anything more than taking your computer to an Apple Store or reseller and getting your graphic card replaced.
    Sometimes, when the graphic card is damaged, operating systems can't start. That's caused because the drivers that make the graphic card work detect an error, telling the operating system that the graphic card is unusable, so the operating system can't start and it restarts. However, you can start in safe mode because operating systems use a basic driver in this startup mode

  • I can't used my applications on the Imac it shows a screen telling me that the app is not valid for it, but im sure it is because i had it for a long time in my macbook

    i can used any app, but im specially concerned about one i use the most. It shows a screen telling me that the app is not valid but im pretty sure it is

    Older apps which were not written for Intel Macs will no longer work in 10.8 and newer versions of OS X.

    Matt,
    Actually it's 10.7 and newer versions of OS X.

  • Satellite L505-13W shows Blue screen error

    My laptop SATELLITE L505-13W Shows blue screen error.
    The os gets booted up and after some time it shows a blue screen error and restarts.
    On restart it asks for repair, even after succesfull repair it showed the same error.
    So i tried to recover using the recovery cd but it proved to be a tragedy.
    It eraced my full HDD to stone age and smiled at me saying recovery is not possible.
    please help me.......

    Hi
    If the notebook cannot be recovered using the recovery disk, then all this smells like hardware problem.
    Are you sure that your recovery disk is OK?
    Did you try to install the OS using other installation disk?
    Maybe this would be useful to check if the issue might be related to the faulty recovery disk but if the BSOD (blue screen of death) appeared before the OS installation, then I would say the issue might be caused by internal hardware malfunction
    It would be necessary to check the RAM modules and the HDD.
    HDD can be checked using the HDD diagnostic software like Drive Fitness Test (freeware)
    RAM could be checked using a tools like memtest but you need a running systemso in this case you cannot check the RAM using a software I recommend removing one module and testing the notebook using one module in each slot

  • Iphone 5S ramdomly restarts, turns off itself, screen shows blue screen sometimes

    I am having problem with my iPhone 5S since Tuesday. The phone restarts itself while using like during making calls or surfing internet, the phone turns off automatically and sometimes shows blue screen. I called apple support and they told me to connect my iPhone to iTunes and they had me reset everything like factory resetting and stuff like that. After we did that the phone started working but very next day again I started having same problem, my phone completely turned off by itself and I couldn’t turned it on by pressing power button so I went to apple store at Grand Central made an appointment and I waited there like 45 minutes for my turn. I explained everything and the guy from genius bar he pressed menu button and the power button together and boom… the phone was back on. He checked the phone and says nothing wrong with the phone and I told him everything about the issues. He said if problem happens again come back and we will replace your phone as I recently bought this IPhone and is still under warranty. I came back home and again my phone started acting up…same problem you never know when your phones gonna be turned off….somebody calls you don’t hear nothing funny part is those people who are calling me says phone keeps ringing you don’t pick up. So I made an appointment today I went back to Grand Central apple store, I explained everything today in detail and told them I am using I phone since the time when Iphone 3G came in and I have other iphones too at home and none of them had this kind of problem before. I am really upset with my phone, it's giving me hard time. The guy checked the phone and said phone is working fine nothing wrong with it. Now what I am gonna do? I said please give me replacement phone ‘cause I think there is something wrong with this phone hardware, firmware whatever…He said he can’t, he thinks I am lying. Why should I waste my time going there back and forth after work when you are so tired from your job? Can anyone please suggest what could be the problem?? How to deal with this problem? Thank you

    Call in again and explain the situation.  Ask to speak with a supervisor.  There are things they can do to document and confirm your issue that way you can get it serviced.  Just be sure before returning to the store, you have a case number from the call where they documented to service the device.  This process sometimes takes a few days as domes the supervisors need to escalate your information to ensure an outcome in your interest.  That would be my recommendation.

  • Hi, I bought an iPod 2 and I jailbreaked it before. I tried to download the iOS 5.0.1 from the Settings icon on my iPad 2 and then my iPad wouldn't turn on anymore and it kept on showing a screen with an arrow pointing to an iTunes symbol.

    Hi, I bought an iPod 2 and I jailbreaked it before. I tried to download the iOS 5.0.1 from the Settings icon on my iPad 2 but then my iPad wouldn't turn on anymore and it kept on showing a screen with an arrow pointing to an iTunes symbol. I later learned that this was the recovery screen so I tried to put it out of the recovery mode by pressing the home button and power button simultaneously, but the screen kept on returning back to the recovery screen. I could not restore the iPad 2 on iTunes either, so I downloaded Tiny Umbrella 5.10.01 and tried to save the shsh. However, under the recovering devices section on the left side, my iPad did not appear and I only got a device titled ?18092..... I tried to save the shsh of this ?18902... anyways but this did not work. So, I clicked on the device and pressed the exit recovery but then my iPad2 screen went black with a white apple logo in the middle. This logo keeps on dimming and disappearing and even when I plug my iPad 2 to the computer, neither my iTunes nor the Tiny Umbrella notice it. I need urgent help!

    At this point only a restore will fix your issue.

  • My old MBP (2005) often crashes, freezes or shows grey screen at start up. Also track pad often does not work. I have re fomatted the HD and reinstalled system but to no avail. Genius bar says possible faulty HD, but suspect logic board, any ides any body

    My old 17" MBP (2005) often crashes, freezes or shows grey screen at start up. Also track pad often does not work. I have re fomatted the HD and reinstalled system but to no avail. Genius bar says possible faulty HD, but I suspect logic board. All checks out OK on the Apple Diagnostic bench. Can a Logic board go intermittant?? Any Ideas any body??

    Ive repaired 1000s of laptops over the years (translate: diagnose and replace parts).
    Its not that old, Ive owned 100s of laptops (most were free) ....some I still have are nearly 13 years old and still perfect, ....some extremely expensive ones died in under a year.
    other than becoming obsolete at some point, there isnt really any "will spoil on" data like Milk for solid state computer parts, ....alas.
    You can have a $5000 laptop die in 4 months, and a junker one keep kicking after 10 years.... Ive seen that firsthand countless times.
    Common logic dictates that "very expensive = long life" in computers,..... but all the repair people will tell you just the opposite.
    I know you have a gripe, I get that all too well honestly .

    I'm on a windows laptop using iTunes sharing through the family to connect with Apple TV.
    After choosing the folder of photos to be shared and displayed on the appletv and when I choose to show on screen, they are not shown in the order they are in the original folder.
    How to pair show in a certain order, for example, sorted by name.
    grateful
    Julio Cesar

    Not that I'm aware of. You just export JPEG copies to a folder that you can point iTunes to. For instance, I have created a folder in my Pictures folder called Apple TV. And within that folder I have other folders of pictures that I can choose from in iTunes to share with Apple TV. But there doesn't seem to be any way to share a Lightroom slideshow. If you have laid to create a video file that would probably work. Apple TV is a little clunky in my opinion. Some things are a little more difficult to do now than they were a while back. I probably haven't provided you with much help, but just keep experimenting and I think you will figure it out.

  • Can we show flash screen over the loaded HTML5 page in StageWebView for IOS?

    Hi Guys,
    I want to show flash screen(let say abc.mxml) over loaded HTML5 page in StageWebView. But unable to show it. Even I want to interact with both pages ( flash and HTML5) bidirectionally.
    Can anyone help me out of this StageWebView issue?
    Thanks,
    Mamta

    Okay. I guess it's not possible?
    Seems like the closest way to get there would be the UIwebview Native Extension. But the examples on the website are pretty vague as to it's use. (at least for a non-C coder like myself)
    Anybody use that particular ANE? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
    Again, just need to set a simple property here...
