Cleaning a mess off an LCD screen - need help asap!!!

my wife had can of spray adhesive blow up near my computer, spraying adhesive all over my 2 LCD monitors.  it is now dry and hard.  what kind of solvents can i use to remove this without damaging the screens?  WD40 removes this crap well from the hard plastic parts, but i'm hesitant to use it on the actual monitor screen.  any ideas???

All of the above will damage the screen.  WD40 should never be used on any screen, regardless.  The gorillas tape can't remove what is on the screen, because the glue softened the polymer of the screen, mixes with it, then hardens...meaning it actually becomes part of the screen; the only way to remove that is to break it off, which is what you'll do if you try the gorilla tapoe method.  The citrus based goo removers, if which DSR is just one, will not work for the same reason.  The glue has penetrated and dissolved the polymer resin of the screen, then hardened with it.  It cannot be removed with a solvent, unless the screen it has integrated into is also removed. 
As I stated before, unfortunately replacement is your only ooption.

  • Stuck grey screen, need help asap!

    Alright,
    so I was trying to reinstall some programs by using the Startup Disk 1.
    I relized how long it was taking, and quit at an early point.
    I chose to restart the computer (I've done it before, and it just went back to our normal screen)
    But this time around,
    It went to a blank white screen,
    several minutes later, a blinking globe appeared
    and then a minute or two later, the blue startup screen appeared,
    then turned grey,
    and that's where it's been ever since.
    I have NO idea how to fix this.
    I've looked everything up from this other computer,
    and I am pretty much desperate to get the computer fixed ASAP
    PLEASE,
    hah I need answers quick
    Thank you so much!!!

    Hi Nicole-
    Don't be freaked out- it doesn't help. You need to be cool, calm, and methodical.
    So, you have an iMac? Anyhow, a slot loading optical drive....
    Check your keyboard. Is it plugged in?
    If you are using a wireless keyboard, change to a USB plug in type for now. If you are using a wireless, this would be why previous keyboard commands didn't work.
    With the OS install disc in the machine, and with the machine off (hold the power button for several seconds to make sure it turns off). Startup the Mac, and hold the C key while starting. Hold the key until you see the gray spinning wheel stop spinning. The machine should boot to the OS X install disc.
    Once booted to the OS install disc, either, repair the hard drive with Disk Utility, or, Archive and Install, saving user settings.
    BTW-We aren't arguing, just establishing from where the others thinking is based. Of no consequence to you, except that we are both trying to help.
    Remember, cool, calm, methodical.

    If you have not done a factory reset on the device, I recommend doing a complete  factory reset.  
    Factory Reset  - Warning this will reset device back to original factory settings.
    This method will not erase any MDN/MIN information
    Turn off the phone 
    Press Power + Volume Up/Down at the same time and hold until display will show a triage android screen 
    Display will show: 
    Reboot system Now 
    Apply sdcard:update.zip 
    Wipe Data/Factory Reset 
    Wipe Cache Partition
    Use VOL Down key to scroll down to "Wipe Data/Factory Reset", press home icon to select option and wipe device. 
    Display shows "All user data will be wiped out", press VOLUME Up to continue or VOLUME Down to exit. 
    Press Volume Up 
    Press Home to select "Reset System Now" - device will reboot
    If the problem persist I recommend having a store technician take a look at the device.

  • Objects outside of workspace show in SWF... Need help ASAP!

    When I export a flash movie (.swf file)And play it on full screen, the objects that are outside of the workspace show. Can anyone tell me how to fish this problem? need help ASAP! Thanks :]

    If what follows isn't sufficient for you to figure out, you'll have to spend some time learning how to work with Flash.  While you'll often get help solving problems in these forums, it's less likely you will get tutoring services.  Google is a very good resource for tutorials.
    To create a mask you draw a shape to the size you want and place it on a layer above all the content you want to mask.  A mask is actually not well named because masks normally hide things, while in the graphics world, masks define the are where things are shown... so when you apply a mask to something, only what is under the mask shows.  To finalize, you right click on the label area of the mask's layer and select Mask from the menu that appears.  You may have to drag lower layers up towards the mask layer to get them included, whicxh is why I mentioned creating the rest of the content as a movieclip (a single layer object).
    To control the visibility of objects you set their visibility to true or false (AS2: mcName._visible = true (or false),  AS3:mcName.visible = true (or false)).
    To create a frame around the stage, add a new layer atop everything and draw a rectangle big enough to hide all the content you don't want showing that is off the stage.  Then draw a rectangle that is the same size as the stage on top of that first rectangle, placing it over the stage, and then deselect anything that is selected.  Then reselect the smaller rectangle you just drew and delete it.  The larger rectangle is now framing your stage.

  • Stuttering flv playback issue- need help asap

    We need help asap. Have a project is due to deliver today (5/14).
    We have a video to go on a dvd-rom, live action with Motion Graphics behind.
    When output is done thru Projector the Motion Graphics stutter as they scroll.
    Here is more technical info:
    Stuttering flv playback issue:
    Prores 422 timeline 29.97fps 1280x720 output from fcp using current settings.
    Mov file is approx 7gb, plays relatively smooth on a mac pro with no raid.
    Frame by frame analysis shows all frames are present with no jumps tears or skips.
    Tried several output paths, programs and settings to create a smooth flv file to no avail.
    We adjusted data rates from 2k, 3.5k, 4k and 8k, no luck
    We adjusted keyframe rates from low to all frames, no luck.
    We tried cs3 flash encoder, cs5 media encoder, squeeze ect, same results.
    Playback in the flash projector seems to choke slightly no matter what we do.
    Have also posted in the Director Forum.
    Any help much appreciated!

    Here are a few ideas off the top of my head:
    Try playing the file using a different xtra, sometimes different ones will work better.  If you have Director 11.5, there is a native flv playback xtra.
    You can build a player easily in Flash using the flvPlayback component, then bring that into Director as a swf.
    Once you have the video in Director, try making the member Direct To Stage (DTS).  If it is already DTS, try making it not DTS.
    Make sure the video is not transparent, and nothing in Director overlaps the video... in fact, when the video is playing, nothing should be moving at all, and try to keep the amount of code that is running to a minimum.
    Try lowering your video's data rate further or try using a different codec.
    Using VBR (Variable Bit Rate) compression often makes the video appear to play smoother.
    Try compressing the flv with different software.  FFMpeg, for example, is free and does a very good job, often better than the Flash Video Encoder that comes with Flash/Creative Suite.

  • IPad deactivated. Need help asap!!!

    My daughter deactivated my husband's iPad. The screen says that it's deactivated and that I need to connect it to iTunes. The problem is, that it's connected and a little box appears saying "To allow access, please respond on your iPad...". How am I going to respond if its not working?! Need help asap!!!!

    Is that the computer that it's normally synced to ? With iOS 7 you need to need 'trust' computer that it's connected to, if the iPad is disabled you won't be able to trust it, you will need to put the iPad into recovery mode in order to be able to reset the iPad - there are instructions towards the bottom of this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 . You can then restore/resync the content to it.

  • My ipod says i have no music on it, but when i plug it into itunes, and look under music on my ipod, its all there. NEED HELP ASAP!!!!! all the music came from a computer which i no longer have, so my ipod is the only place where that music is.

    This morning, i downloaded about 16 songs to put on my ipod, and i manually dragged them over to my ipod to sync that way (like i always do because the music on my ipod came from a different computer which I no longer have) and on my way to work, i realized my ipod says "no content" under Music. However, when I plug my ipod into itunes and click on the music tab under my ipod name, all of my music is there. What happened and how do i get that music back on my ipod? I need help asap.

    You had a glitch and the music files got corrupted. I know of no way to uncorrupt them.
    You can try using a computer app like iFunbox
    http://dl.i-funbox.com/
    to see if yo can get them from the iPod in a usable file.
    Otherwise you will have to re import them to your computer and sync
