Can't see certain things (invisible) when using internet on Windows 7.

I think this is a Windows 7 issue I am having.  I just got my Ideapad with Windows 7.  When using both Internet Explorer and Firefox, certain text, image, and boxes are invisible..or so faint I can barely see them.  Fox example, as I type this, I see no box under subjet.  All that I see is white space.  I have to tab around to find the boxes to type in.  Same thing with this text box where I am typing now.  There is no box.  Another example is the streets on a map in google maps...the smaller white streets are almost invisible.  Since this is happening in both IE and Firefox, I am thinking it must be a Windows 7 issue.  Anyone know how to fix it?

Actually I just figured this out today after receiving no help from customer service (i talked to 2 agents) and pretty much you need to update the drivers. for my laptop i have the nvidia. You just go to their website and there is this option there that will let you search for the current one you have on your laptop. It will also give you the driver for it to update. I updated it with the new driver and bam....i got text boxes!!

  • I can't see the other person when using facetime but they can see me just fine, how can i fix this?

    When I use facetime with my fiance on my brand new macbook air she can see me but I can't see her. Please help me remedy this problem, I have verified that I am logged into facetime and connected it with both my ipone5 and my email but haven't seen any changes.  It is a 1 week old macbook air and I'm assuming it has the latest iOS installed but don't know how to check as this is my first Macbook.  Thank you for your help

    MacBook Air does not run iOS.  It runs OS X (pronounced as in OS - ten).  You can check which version you have by clicking the Apple logo in the upper left of the menu bar, then "About This Mac".  The current version is OS X 10.8.4.  If you do not have that version, you can click "Software Update" just below the "About This Mac" entry under the Apple logo.
    Anyway, typically, the reason for the FaceTime behavior you're describing is a less-than-robust internet WiFi connection.

    my total library is 680 mb, nowhere close to the 2.08 in the pictures folder. I am obviously messing up.
    Actually you’re not.
    The iPhoto Window reports the size of the library that would result if you exported all the current versions +and nothing else+ to a folder on the desktop.
    The iPhoto Library Folder contains the Original, Modified and thumbnail versions of your pics. It also contains various cache and database files +all of which are necessary+ for the working of the Library.
    Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
    You can run a Library on an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • I tried to send a mail message to too many addees. when the rejection came back "cannot send message using the server..." the window is too long to be able to see the choices at the bottom of it. how can i see the choices at the bottom of that window?

    I tried to send it through gmail and the acct is  a POP acct
    I'm not concerned about sending to the long address list. I just can't get the email and window that says "cannot send emai using the server..." to go away. The default must be "retry", because although I cannot see the choices at the bottom of the window if I hit return it trys again... and then of course comes back with the very long pop up window that I cannot see the bottom of so I can tell it to quit trying...

    Apple doesn't have any built-in ad blocking components in teh OS or in Safari...so what ad blocking program or Safari extension are you using?  It should have the ability for you to change its settings.

  • How can I see from my contact who use iphone (ios 5) for contact with imessage?

    How can I see from my contact who use iphone (ios 5) for contact with imessage?

    Well, let take the personal service point of view : let say, I had two calendars on my iCloud account : one for work, one for my leisure activities.
    On my MacBook Pro that I use at home as well as at my office, I would want the two calendars to show and since I am alone in my office, I would want the alerts for both my work and my leisure activities to show (and make a sound at the same time).
    But on my iPad that I only use at home, I would only want my leisure activities alerts to show (and make a sound) and on my iPhone that I only use for work, I would only want my work alerts to show (and make a sound).
    That is a personal service that simply does not work.
    Why would Apple give us the opportunity to hide some calendars on certain devices but not allow us, on these same devices, to switch off the alerts linked to these calendars that we have chosen to hide ? Why having alerts of calendars that do not even show on these devices ?
    And I am an Apple fan since 1984, since the very first Mac. I still do believe Macs and Apple devices and/or software (iOS, OS X and others...) are much better and much more efficient than " Microsoft, Windows, Google and other Android devices and software.
    But that does not mean everything's perfect (and I find that quite normal).
    Nevertheless, in this case, letting alerts make a sound on a device where a specific calendar is not shown, that does not make any sense : when uncheking those calendars, the alerts linked to those calendars should be automatically switch off (but alerts should be able to work on the calendars that are shown.)

  • How can i see how many people are using my apple id without changing the password ?

    how can i see how many people are using my apple id without changing because some people have it

    I'm not sure that you can. Why have so many people got your password? So many in fact, that you don't know how many.
    You can see how many computers are authorised to play any songs you have purchased from the iTunes Store, but that isn't quite the same thing.
    Perhaps a better idea would be to change the password and not let anyone else know what it is. That would at least prevent anyone else from changing it and locking you out of your own account.

  • Where can I see the downloads LIST when downloading podcasts, like in the older version of iTunes?  I find it frustrating that I see only one at a time now !  Any suggestions please?

    Thanks for taking a stab at it: that didn't prove to be the problem. That option in the settings for tabbed browsing was not checked.
    I may be a bit behind the times: I am used to tabbed browsing showing all the tabs it possibly can, instead of just the last one. Sometimes it won't even show the last tab: I can have 15 tabs open, and not see a single tab. I've been confused by this into closing a window with lots of tabs open, because it looks like a single page-window.
    My main problem with the tab-bar flashing to the end of the row is that it means a great deal more mouse-clicking around to browse.
    I haven't tried installing the latest beta. Maybe that would fix the problem.

  • Hi,i have iphone 4S, after updating ios 7, all functions are ok but i can't see my balence because when i dial to balance inquiry ( as *124

    Hi,i have iphone 4S, after updating ios 7, all functions are ok but i can't see my balence because when i dial for  balance inquiry ( as *124#) it does not respond or even say that this number is not in use. How can i sort out this problem?

    Yes lucky me . If all troubleshooting has been done in Resolve iOS update and restore errors and if you have at least taken it into a store where they could try a restore themselves then that would suggest a hardware fault with the iPhone.
    If you are out of warranty then it is correct that they would quote you an out of warranty service fee. From here it would be a matter of trying the steps above and if you have already tried then doing the service when you do have the cash.

  • I am trying to delete an XLS file from a network drive and am getting a message that says the file cannot be deleted because it is in use.  I can't see where it is in use and have tried to reboot the computer to no avail.

    I am trying to delete an XLS file from a network drive and am getting a message that says the file cannot be deleted because it is in use.  I can't see where it is in use and have tried to reboot the computer to no avail.  I can delete other files but several XLS files are giving me this message.

    You said it was a network drive.  So is someone else on the network using that same file or may have have left with excel still accessing it on their system?
