Changing area of pixelation on screen - why?

OK, pixelation may not be the right term. But anyway, there are changing places on the screen where there's a chunk that is like an extremely low resolution, etc.  I'm attaching a partial screenshot so you can see what I mean.
When I scroll or move, the area changes - can be even on the main "desktop" behind an open window, or on the top apple menu bar (where the apple is on the left, and the time on the right).  When I do something that sends a new image signal to the screen, it stops.
Does anyone know what is going on?? Any idea what's causing it?  I'm out of warranty. No Apple store near, but do have an authorized reseller/repair nearby.

1680 x 1050 on a 55" TV? - Thats why!
Tv's that size are 1080p which means the resolution should be 1920 x 1080, but your fonts will get slightly smaller. (but your movies will look even better!)
A good compromise would be to set your resolution to 1280 x 720 - You will still get HD quality, but your fonts will be "bigger" allowing you do use your computer from many feet away and still being able to see what you are doing.
If you are using Snow Leopard, I believe there is an option at the top that will say "720p" or, if that does not appear, just manually select 1280 x 720.

  • POI Information Updates when Costing Changes are not Saved

    Hi All,
    When you go to the costing screen of a party in Oracle HRMS, make changes to the costing string (Cost Allocation Flexfield) and not save them. Then, exit from the costing form and go to the Purchase Order Information (POI) screen and press Ctrl+F11, the POI information updates to the new changes. It was my understanding that in order for the purchase order info to be updated you need to make changes or "touch" the costing screen and save. I have noticed that the purchase order changes after being in the costing screen even without saving anything. Was this intend?
    Thanks,

    The Changes on the Assignment reflect because of the changes on the Costing Screen. This is due to the custom.pll implementation.

    ================================================================================================================
    Its the custom package that actually populates the changes in Costing Screen onto the Assignment Screen, but I want to activate this only when I save the changes on the Costing Screen. Right now the changes are seen on Assignment Screen when I hit CTRL=F11 even when I don's save the Costing Screen changes.
    Thank You,
    Ngagadam.

  • Why Material Classification Changes are not shown in MM04?

    I have a material; I changed classification data by changing a value of a
    Characteristic, e.g. unit of measure for reporting. It had allowed values of
    No entry, mg, kg..  I changed it from No entry to mg.
    However when I went to MM04; I do not see the change; why. I know
    When I make changes to non Classification data; I can see changes in mm04.

    Hi,
    I'm afraid you can't see these changes in MM04.                                                                               
    MM04 does not show the changes of classification of the material  master only the changes of fields which directly belong to material master. You can get the classification change docs in the classification screen: menu  Environment -> change docs.                                                                               
    Also note that Changes to the values of characteristics are not recorded in material master changes. These values are stored in the  classification tables and if you want to track changes of them, you have to use engineering change management.
    Thanx & Regards,
    Mauro

  • Why changes are not visible in alternate profit center heirarchy?

    Hi
    I did changes in the master data of profit center. I chaged the profit center group in the masterdata of profit center & the same change is visible in the standard heirachy but the changes are not visible in the alternative heirarchy.
    I think it should visible as I did changes in the master data.
    I just want to know why it is like so or there is some other way to change the master data.
    I know i can drag the profit center as well in t code KCH9 or KCH 2.
    After doing so i activated the same.
    Waiting for sugestions, comments.

    Hi,
    If your are using same profit center group(which is used in standard hierarchy) in alternate hierarchy,you will see change.
    if your using different groups in Standard hierarchy and Alternate hierarchy you will not see change in alternate hierarchy.
    hope this helps you.
    Thanks,

  • Screen changes are not active in production tenent

    Hi Experts,
    I realized the transport of a solution to the production environment and as can be seen in the attached image the solution has been successfully activated.
    The scripts "OnSave", "AfterModify", etc for example are up and running in the production environment, but all the changes that were made on screen are not displayed to users.
    Does anyone know how to make the screen changes available to users?
    Best regards.

    Hello Felipe,
    What tool did you use to "make changes on screens"?
    UI Designer started from SDK?
    Adaption mode in UI?
    Bye,

  • Why does it say in the Firefox Safe Mode article that all of the changes are temporary while in Safe Mode, then later it says "Note: The following changes cannot be undone."?

    Why does it say in the Firefox Safe Mode article that all of the changes are temporary while in Safe Mode, then later it says "Note: The following changes cannot be undone."?

    When you open Firefox in Safe Mode, it automatically disables your custom settings, themes, and add-ons. THOSE changes are temporary.
    However, if you click any of the boxes underneath the line, "You can make some or all of these changes permanent", and then choose "Make Changes and Restart", everything you checked will be forever changed, even when you start Firefox again in 'normal' mode. [See attached image for a preview of the Safe Mode options].
    To be clear:
    1. If you check any of the boxes but do NOT select "Make changes and restart", those things will not be changed at all in safe mode.
    2. If you select any of the boxes and you DO select "Make changes and restart", you will permanently lose any of the items you checked (bookmarks (except for backups), user preferences, etc.).
    If you performed the action in step 2 above, you will only be able to restore those things if you have a previously created back-up of your Mozilla Profiles folder (not the same as the Firefox program folder).
    Hope this helps.

  • In ESS we are getting SAP GUI screens instead of web screens??

    Hi,
    How the problem has come up---
    We have transferred the production data and OS into test server and changed the test server IP address to production IP address after shutting down the production server.
    Which means that now ITS/ESS will be pointing to the new copied server. After this when this new server was shutdown and old production was started the ESS/ITS points back to the original production server.
    Now the problem is that When we execute any transaction from ESS we are getting SAP GUI screen instead of Web screen.
    Can somebody tell me why this is happening.
    Any pointers to this will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Varun

    First off...what version are you on (backend)? Also, how did you "switch" your ITS instance?A little more info and we will solve this for ya. =)

  • How do i change the resolution of my screen shots that i captured from my desktop?

    How do i change the resolution of my screen shots that i captured from my desktop?
    Thanks.

    Do you mean you want it saved with the resolution set to something other than 72 dpi when the capture is made, or do you mean you want your capture saved at a higher resolution than the captured area?
    1) If the first, there are ways to change the default capture format .png to something else, such as .jpg, .tif and a few others, but as far as I know, the resolution will always be 72 dpi. You can use Preview to change the resolution of the captured image under Tools > Adjust Size. You will get this:
    If your intention is to set the resolution for professional printing defaults, then change the resolution to 300. Turn off Resample image to prevent the image from actually having more pixels added. The resolution will simply be reset from 72 to 300 dpi without changing the actual number of pixels in the image. It will also print a lot smaller since the output device will now use 300 pixels per linear inch instead of 72.
    Leave Resample image on if you need to maintain the dimensions. Be aware however that scaling the image (resampling) will add a lot more pixels to the image than are there to maintain size. Expect the image to get very soft and pixelated looking when adding 417% more data to the image than it currently has.
    2) If you mean you want the OS to actually save the captured area as a high resolution image at size, that can't happen. A capture is a 1:1 grab of the display buffer. It can only capture what's there. So if you capture a 700 pixel x 500 pixel area, that's all the bigger it can be without scaling it afterwards.

  • My subtitles in Adobe Encore are extremely pixelated

    My subtitles in Adobe Encore are extremely pixelated, even after I change the quality of the project. Any ideas how to make the text crisp and a nice looking resolution? The text should be flawless I would imagine- it's only text!
    Using CS5.5
    Created and imported .txt file subtitles (currently don't have the means to create a .scc file)
    The project settings are 1280x720, 29fr
    I am using a simple text, Arial, 22pt, Bold outline.
    The quality of the text is horrible! Help!
    See screen shot below-- this is viewing at 200%

    I'm sort of having the same problem. My most problematic text is a vector logo that is text based (thick script and sans serif). The original logo was created in Illustrator. My exported video (with scale-animated logo at the end) looks good enough, and I created a menu in Photoshop that also contains the logo in the background. I scaled the vector down when I placed it in both these instances. Previewing these elements in Encore CS6 they still look sharp and clear. But then burn the DVD, and the DVD played back looks awful. The entire menu is pixelated, but the script logo is the worst. Its terribly pixelated with humongous jaggies (the original video is HD 1440x1080 and the menu is also formatted that size). Then when the logo comes on in the video it is hard to read and there are black horizontal lines going through it.
    I've tried changing project settings (not many options there) and export settings, but nothing I do helps the final burnt DVD at all.
