Checkered boxes

The flash player is showing a white and gray checker board
where an image should be. I have tried uninstalling and
reinstalling flash player as well as updating my browser. Flash is
not working in either Firefox OR IE! I have tried a few online
searches and dug around but can't find any information. Can anyone
help me out?
Thanks for your time,

I have a 2007 Macbookpro and it started up with gray checkered boxes ann across the screen I tried to re load OSX and it work 1 day and started again is this a hard drive problem or Video? Now as it starts to load a screen comes up saying to restart

I'd suspect this known issue:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
if you have a late 2007 MBP.
The only testing you can do at home is to attach an external monitor and see if the defects repeat on the external. If so, get to an Apple store. If the computer's video chipset fails a test the Apple Store will perform, you get a free logic board replacement. Turnaround is usually one day to one week--not bad at all.
If the defects do NOT repeat on an external monitor, then the problem is not covered by the above Repair Extension Program
The issue is heat-triggered. Be certain that you control heat once you get it fixed. Don't use the computer in your lap without a lapboard; don't block the vents under the display hinge; don't us in clamshell mode, etc.

Java project!Coloured checkered boxes!

Guys I need your help...It's for my school project...I'm still only a beginner in java programming...I've gotta create a java applet concerning area..It has to display a rectangle containing alternate squares of different colours which is determined by a scrollbar which customizes the size of the rectangle..For example if the scrollbar is adjusted to a 4*4 the area is 16 and so there has to be 16 squares of different colours..And what is shown by the scrollbar needs to be reflected on textfields as well..Please help me out...This should simple to you guys as you're the experts here.

Moving Identity Plate with Arrow Keys

I have always been able to move my identity plate around using the arrow keys. For some reason, it doesn't work any more. I am using Lightroom 2.3. I know that this is a small problem, but I sure would like to know how to remedy this. Thanks!

Hi Ken,
This is how I have done it.
1. Create identity plate in Illustrator and save as an Illustrator file = .ai
2. Go to Overlays in Lightroom and check Identity Plate
3. Within the Identity Plate checkered box, you will see a pull-down menu on the bottom right
4. Select Edit
5. Select the radio button: "Use a graphical Identity Plate"
6. Locate the ai file and select Choose (You might not see anything in the window, but don't worry about that
7. Select Custom
8. Choose Save As and give it a name
9. Select OK
Now, when you go into that checkered box within the Identity Plate window, you will now see your new Identity Plate (ai graphic) listed. Select it, and it will be displayed on your photograph. Sometimes, I have to select it twice (not sure why) for the resolution to be high quality. Good luck and let me know how it works out.

Fading an Image

I have placed the fade image on a background image, but it
always shows up with a checkered box (black and white) as the fade
as shown on the eight examples to choose from. I was curious to
know if there is a way to change the fade to different colors
(white, black, red, blue, etc.) Thanks!

Checkered background in Acrobat 9

Novice question here I'm sure but I need help. A couple days ago all of my documents started opening with a checkered background. Small blue and white boxes. I'm sure it is a setting somewhere but I've failed to find it. It doesn't matter if they're documents I've created or not, it's on all of them. It shows on my screen but doesn't show when the document is printed. I have a screen shot if anyone's interested in seeing it but I'm hoping that someone can just identify what I changed and point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

If what George suggested does not do the trick, there is something else to try.

How do I get Pages to quit printing small boxes in my text?

When setting up a small, 2 page flyer, I like change numbered sentences to a dark red, make them bold, then make them superscript. All of this is built into my Pages '09 templates and makes things easier to read for younger folks.
I created a new document from one of these templates today and it looked perfect on the screen but when I printed the document, between the bold, dark red superscript number and the first letter of the sentance, where I had left a space, I now have (only on the printed copy) a small box. I don't know why it shows up only when printed, but I'm hoping someone can help me get Pages to stop printing those boxes.
Thanks for any and all help!
Ron

You may also add OpenOffice spell checkers, there is a long list of languages, including Norwegian. These may be used with other apps too. Downloaded OO dics have the extension .oxt, manually change it to .zip, confirm when asked that you really wish to do this. Open the resulted folder and take from there .dic and .aff files, and move them to /Library/spelling. You may thus have as many spell checking dics as you wish. They may be selected in all the apps based on the Cocoa engine, including Pages.
In the attached screenshot, in the lower part you may see these dics.
P.S. I am not very familiar with Norwegian, but it seems the article does not specify how to download and install OO dics.

Scrolling display gray/white boxes (chess board pattern)

When I am scrolling down in an email, it displays a "checkered page" with small gray and white boxes before each page loads. Is that normal?

Yes. That is a temporary screen while it downloads more info from the server.

Powerbook Al 1.25GHz screen shows yellow boxes/lines

My five year old AlPB recently started showing yellow lines/boxes on the screen. The first time it happened I was in safari and quitting fixed the problem, it then happened later that day and quitting didn't fix anything. i rebooted twice with no luck, then booted up with leopard DVD and it was fixed. A week later the same thing happened and after multiple reboots nothing fixed it. I reset the PRAM and no luck. Then i ran the hardware test and halfway through the test while it was checking the RAM it fixed its self and everything passed the test. However after waking it from sleep twice it has again showed these lines/boxes (but now only in the finder not in other applications) and a restart has resolved the issue. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this. I took a screenshot and the picture contained the lines indicating that it is a hardware problem not the LCD. Thanks for you help.

From what I gather, there is a whole slew of us with all the same problem whether its single lines that multiply as time goes by or for us earlier ALPB owners, we get a whole screen full of intermittent checkered patterns, but since these machines are all a couple years old and out of warranty I am pretty sure Apple is not going to be much help. They'd rather us dip into our pockets and buy new computers than to spend some big bucks themselves and stand behind their products.
The only good news is that if you are handy enough to disassemble the machine and send only the logic board to a reputable lab, they can re-solder the video chip back in place and this solves the problem for about $60 to $100. This seems to be better than dishing out anywhere between $250 to $700 for a new logic board, which runs the risk of having the same defect 2 to 3 years down the road since they don't seem to have been built right the first time.
If you want to know if you have the exact same problem that most of us all have, then press on the case above the track pad or from the bottom in about the same area. Not hard, but just enough to flex the logic board a little inside. You will notice that it temporarily fixes the problem, but don't get too happy. Working that lose video chip back and forth only worsens the problem, so soon you it will be to a point where it will only help if you constantly hold pressure in a key spot which is unique to each PB.
It's too bad though. I was just beginning to really think Apple was different.

Contact form check boxes will not work on a Tablet

Hi there,
I created a website (Desktop) and a mobile version (Phone). I did not create one for a tablet but have relied on the Desktop version if someone views it on a Tablet.
Here's the thing, I created a contact form with checkboxes. It works great on a desktop (because people check the boxes with their mouse), however, it doesn't work on a Tablet, when you try and check the boxes with your finger.
Help!

Please share the site URL.

Expand Text Box? "Advanced" text options not hidden?

The title text box/editor is very small in the 10.2 update. It's just big enough for 2 lines of text. I find it fairly inconvenient to have it so small (I am referring to the text box in the inspector). I'm guessing there is no way to expand this to fit more lines of text in, but if anyone knows how that'd be sweet! Otherwise I'm just crossing my fingers it gets a quick update since I'm using it every day for work.
Also, the "advanced" tab always being collapsed in the basic text editing tools is annoying, too. I use this every time I make a title(which I'm making two videos a day, so it's a little more tedious now after the update). Personally, for a professional program I would consider the options in the "advanced" section to actually be basic and fairly necessary...based on how I use it, so maybe I'm not a normal case.
Nothing is broken, just less convenient...
Thanks y'all!

That is a wonderful idea if I could find where to do that (maybe another feedback will be to make finding the feedback area easier (: ). Where can I find the feedback area? Thanks for the quick reply as well!
