Can a monitor have a hardware problem so it only work on single resolution?

I have an Apple MultipleScan 1705 connected to a PowerMac 7100. No matters what version of MacOS I use, no matters if I install updated Apple Displays SOftware, it will only work at 832x624 , any other resolution, lower or higher, will mess the image -it will be distorted an you will "see the refresh"-.
I'm starting to think it is a monitor problem, but not sure. Any ideas?

There is only one combination of Red, Green, Blue, HSync, and VSync that will run a high quality monitor.
When you change the switches on your adapter, most of what you are doing is changing the wiring of pins 4, 7, and 10. These pins, and their connections with wires and diodes, are read by the Mac at startup to tell what family of genuine Apple displays is attached. (The code is like a promise that a certain display is being used.)
The Mac uses this information, read at startup, to decide what resolutions and refresh rate are valid for the display you said is attached. No others are provided by your Mac, because they might damage your display.
You have been focusing on the display as the likely source of the problem. I doubt that the display is the problem. The display is a slave. It takes the rows of dots given by the computer and attempts to paint them on the screen, and adjusts the frequency to match what the computer is sending if it can, and otherwise goes blank.
If you take that same "adapter" and cable, and connect it to the Apple display, I expect you will get similar good results.

I have a white ipod touch 4 and it will not go into DFU mode. I know I am doing it right as I have 2 other black ones that I can put into DFU anytime no problems. The ipod works perfect besides that. Can anyone help?

DFU or Device Firmware Upgrade mode allows all devices to be restored from any state.

This is not correct solution. I have fresh/new copy of Windows 7 64 bit and I have the same problem.
Autorun only shows the Apple Bonjour service. It started when try to sync more than one iphone over WiFi. I have two iphones and an iPad. I turned off syncing over WiFi and still has high CPU utilization. One of the CPU's is pegged at 100%. It is the AppleMobileDeviceService.exe process.

For the record, I then followed the suggestion of MarcDCMB in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4291206 of just manually restarting the Apple Mobile Device service in Windows services.msc once each time after starting iTunes and the service no longer hogs CPU after that service restart. Not too painful as a work-around, and apparently an effective one, but clearly not a solution to the problem. Again, as above, all the other solutions didn't work for me and I have no conflicting software as far as I can tell. So you'd have to say this Apple's problem.
Also FTR, I am still on the 5.2.0.6 version of the Apple Mobile Device Support MSI and I don't know if that is relevant to this work-around working but my sense is that it is NOT relevant. I'll report back on this thread if I re-upgrade and the problem returns in spite of the service-restart approach.

Most of the current Apple Intel based computers are comparable in CPU speed. I don't think it is so much the model of laptop as it is the memory, and storage capacity of the machine. If you are going to use FCP on a regular basis, perhaps as a professional or semi-professional, then you should think about the maximum memory and a very large capacity internal disk drive. For instance, one hour of finished compressed video will take up about 1.5 to 2Gbytes of disk space. If you add up the raw footage and still imagery and audio, you'll use up your disk drive capacity real quick. So a hard disk on the order of 750Gbytes @ 7200rpms might be good for video editing. 5400RPMs might be slow to rendering times. Rendering a video might take up a lot of memory so more memory is better e.g. 8Gbytes.
As a rule of thumb, once you get to about 80% of your disk drive or memory you'll see degradation of performance.
You can check out macsales.com. THey have a menu system that will allow you to pick and choose from various alternatives. BTW, it's been said that although Macs are typically spec'd at a certain memory size, macsales.com found that Apple computers will actually support higher memory levels. That is, if 4Gbytes are spec'd, some machines support 6Gbytes. macsales.com will provide the guidance for you.
You might also consider buying an external disk e.g. 500Gbytes to carry around with you for back-up or transport to another machine.

I purchased Adobe photoshop elements II and Adobe premiere elements II. They are both on one disc. My computer crasded and I had to reload Windows. I only have one serial number and it only works with photoshop II. The same serial number will not work for

I purchased Adobe photoshop elements II and Adobe premiere elements II. They are both on one disc. My computer crasded and I had to reload Windows. I only have one serial number and it only works with photoshop II. The same serial number will not work for Premiere. I dont have any other serial numbers. What do I do???

Static_Unit
I am getting a bit concerned about what is happening in your situation. Yesterday you posted your question in at least two different forums, one of them being here in the Premiere Elements Forum.
Don't Have Serial Number for Premiere, Only Photoshop?
Wherever you posted, the reply was to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat. It is the only one who can sort out this matter for you.
In the thread cited above I offered to help you with the difficulties that you were having visualizing the Adobe Chat in its web page. I was waiting for your follow up on that in the above thread. Instead, I find your same question in a new Adobe Premiere Elements Forum thread this afternoon with no refer the prior threads or prior recommendations given you.
I will also mention again...when you buy the Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements bundled in one packaging and with installation files for each on the same installation disc, each program has its own serial number. The Photoshop Elements serial number does not work for Premiere Elements and vice versa. The serial numbers are on labels on a box which houses the installation disc envelope(s). So, if you purchased both programs and found the Photoshop Elements serial number, then the Premiere Elements serial number should be in a label right underneath the label with the serial number for Photoshop Elements. I recall writing this in your yesterday's thread on this matter.
The moderator will no doubt be along shortly to close or delete this thread. So, just in case, please bookmark your yesterday's thread cited above so that we can continue this communication which is trying to help you.
Thanks.

Problem: Bookmark sync only works in one direction

I have 2 computer, computer A has vista and computer B is a netbook with XP. The problem is that the bookmark sycn only works in one direction.
For example: both my computer has the same book marks (previously sync with X-mark which is now disabled). I decided to do some clean up on computer B. If Y sync computer A, nothing happens, but when I sync computer B, all the cleanup I made has been undone since computer A override all the changes I made to B.
In other words, the changes I made to B can never be applied to A.

When you're doing a "clean-up" like that you need to use '''Reset Sync''' in Tools > Options > Sync - Current Account = Manage Account and use the ''' ''Replace all other devices with this computer's data'' ''' option. See the attached screenshot - use the third option.

Problem: Native method only works one

Hi, I have this class that calls the GetShortName method from the windows API.I have created the asociated DLL and everything went quite smooth.
My problem is that when I make a new object of the class GetShortNameA and use the method TranslateIntoShort(String) this only works the fist time.
The rest of the times I try to use this method with other arguments I am getting the same answer that I was getting the first time I call it.
Why can this be and how can I fix it??
I have tried declaring the TranslateIntoShort method non-static, but then the whole thing doesn't work (evena fter regenerating the h file and the DLL).
package alfagui_1;
public class GetShortNameA {
public GetShortNameA() {
static{
System.loadLibrary("GetShortPathNameA");
public static native String TranslateIntoShort(String LongName);
GetShortNameA ShortName = new GetChortNameA();
First time:
ShortName.TranslateIntoShort("C:\Mina Dokument\alfa")-->"C:\Minado~1\alfa"
Sucessive calls:
ShortName.TranslateIntoShort(WHATEVER)-->"C:\Minado~1\alfa"
Thanks for your help

Perhaps if you posted your code we could point out the problem?

My New HP15- D008TU have severe Hardware problem

I have recently bought a new HP15 -D008TU Laptop on 1/07/2014, since then Im seriously facing a problem with the hardware. I have been to the show room where i purchased the Laptop but they are guiding me to a Service centre, which is really annoying me. I have been twice and now they say that the parts are china parts and I should only approach my seller. I really dont know what can I do in this .. I need you immediate response on this. Pls do the needful

Hi
Happy to see your response.
To be precise the Laptop wholly has a problem... It take narly 10 to 12 minutes to boot, and mostly when we enter anything on the keyboard the letter appear after 10secs and not immediately and most of the top keypad letters are not working/ appearing. And more surprisngly I was trying to work on my PPt presentation and all of sudden the screeen went blank and appeared half screen on restarting. I immdiately took it to a near by HP authorisied service station, where on the technician had set it, but still the same probelm is apperaing.
I still have many problems but I can't really explain you on an email. Im a Doctor and my PG students are really annoyed with this laptop.
I have taken HP brand with a great trust but truly saying Im unhappy with my this laptop.
Please request to look into this. Its really a serious problem.
Thank You

How i can submit a complain about hardware problem in Macbook Pro early 2011?

Hello every one,
I bought my Macbook on September 2011, and it worked fine with me for about 1.5 years, but suddenly i got freezed screen when it was on the discrete graphic card, then the same problem happened with the integrated one. and now a gray screen come after the startup apple logo, and the computer is not working. When i searched about this problem on the internet i found that many people faced the same problem and the solution is changing the main board, which will cost a lot of money. And when i contacted the custmer service, they reject to agree that this is a manufacturing problem and they insist that i should pay to get the problem solved because the warranty is just one year. So i want to know how can i contact Apple to complain about this issue, because they should extend the warranty about this problem because it happened for many computers from this generation.
thank you in advance.

I went to Apple store and they confirmed the problem as a problem in the main board or the main board and the screen. and here are some links for similar problem with the same model:

How do i re-size a web page to fit my monitor screen. The view/zoom option only works page by page and does not have a save option I can find.

viewing web page

Try using the Default FullZoom Level extension to set a default zoom level in Firefox:

Problems with Firefox 13. Can't see online audio file player. Video only works on some sites. All works OK in I.E. Updated Flash. No Change

Problems began when Firefox 13 automatically updated. tried downloading latest version of Flash 11.2.202.235. No change.
Video works sometimes on YouTube, not at all on most other sites.
Audio player not working at all. Either not even visible or downloads to real player versus playing within application such as Amazon.
Tried enabling/disabling Add ons to find culprit. No luck.
Everything as it should be in Internet Explorer.
On my WordPress site has MP3 audio files, and uses a flashplayer to display and play music files. With flash player on, nothing displays at all, (bank space where audio player would normally be displayed)
If I disable shock wave flash, a text link is displayed that downloads the MP3 in a new window (quick player), Also video doesn't work on any website. If I disable Flash and quicktime, text link to audio file downloads to realplayer.

hello msandman, there have been quite a few issues with adobe's latest flash update - can you try if flash content is showing up correctly again, when you disable the real-player components like mentioned in the following article: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]]?
otherwise you could also try to remove flash 11.3 from the windows control panel/programs section & [http://forums.adobe.com/thread/889580 downgrade to the 10.3 branch of the plugin], which is still receiving security updates.

It always says:Firefox is already running but not responding; what can i do to fix this problem; it has only started after having downloaded the latest verion.

I downloaded the latest version of firefox and the problem has started; it aways says: "Firefox is already running, but not responding. To open a new window you must first close the existing Firefox process or restart your system; I have to do this about 3 times for the internet to come on again; what can I do, short of calling a technician??

Please read this article: [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]

How do I reverse the latest update to Firefox 4.0? I recently updated and have nothing but problems...nothing works! Click on links with no result, enter web address nothing happens. Please help me downgrade to previous version as this is rediculous!

Upgrade to Firefox 4.0 has caused nothing but problems. Unable to click links, access websites, etc. How can I downgrade to previous version?

Check that the Bookmarks Toolbar is visible and that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is still placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar.
If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
* Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" or other items that are missing in the toolbar palette or on a toolbar then click the "Restore Default Set" button
