College Football Blacked out constant problem

I live in Albany, NY. When it seems there should be no reason to blackout a game (mainly this week -- Syracuse at Louisville).
It's blacked out on SNY and ESPN3.
Not happy with FIOS right now.
If FIOS support wasn't so terrible to try to get a hold of, i'd try calling them.

I stumbled across this link- http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/verizon-fios-tv-now-bringing-syracuse-university-sports-to-c...
Did anyone here check channel 1 when looking for the game? It looks like any local game that's blacked out from a regional network or ESPN3 in upstate NY is shown on FiOS channel 1.

I have been searching every other day for over a month trying to find a fix in Windows Safari with no joy. I want to resolve, not switch browsers. Please offer up a solution that only refreshes the Top Site thumbnails once a day or as some controlable interval. Started about two versions ago, now on ver 5.1.5. Windows 7 64bit.
Safari 5.1.5 for Win64 bit, Windows 7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I solved the wifi connection problem, just by switching off completely the router! sounds trivial, but in this case it worked!!!
the funny behaviour of the trackpad/cursor still persists. any suggestion???
thanks again

I have a problem with FF 4.0b8 and Adobe Flash player where portions of the YouTube page or FF window will black out when I move my curser over buttons or tabs, etc. Any suggestions?

I'm running FF 4 Beta 8 with the latest Flash player (10.1.102.64). When I play YouTube videos, the video is loaded, starts, and plays okay, but when I move my cursor around within the Firefox window, portions of the window black out under where the cursor travels. FF tabs and buttons will black out, or parts of the YouTube page (but not the video). CTL-ALT-Del to bring up Windows Security Panel, then CANCEL will restore the Firefox window, plus the YouTube page correctly (ie black is gone and window has been redrawn correctly). I can open up new tabs and replicate the problem multiple times. I've also experienced this problem with embedded YouTube videos (though it's easiest to replicate the problem direct from the YouTube page.) I don't experience this problem at all with FF 4 Beta 8 in Safe Mode, nor the latest FF 3.x.x. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing the Flash plug-in. Anyone have any ideas?

Problem involving videos played from the YouTube site is much less noticeable after upgrading from FF 4.0b8 to 4.0b9, but still occurs with embedded YouTube videos, where blacking out of other portions of the window still happens.

N96 Blacking out problem

I have the N96 and it is a good phone but im getting very frustrated because it keeps blacking out and then i have to keep turning it off and on again so i can get the brightness back on, now i was advised to activate the power saving via pressing the off button once but i cant adjust the brightness with that and it still very dark, is there a way to over-ride this as its very frustrating and im not sure which settings disable this black out thing that keeps happening

Which version of the firmware are you running
I like many others used ot have this problem until I updated my phone to the v12
on your phone type *#0000#
and the device manager should appear
if not v12, then press options, check for updates and the phone will contact Nokia to see if the v12 is available for your phone

Problem: formatting bar is blacked out ?!?

in keynote (5.1.1) on osX (10.7.5) i have the problem that the formatting toolbar is just "blacked out": it is there, and I can click "in the dark", but I have to guess where to click really.
this makes creating presentation almost impossible.
how can this be ressolved? any ideas, or any support??

ok, it works again.
Here is what I did:
- contacting apple support, ask them what to do. their advice:
     - 1. create a new, fresh account to test if its a systemwide problem, or user specific
     - 2. boot into safe mode once, and reboot system again
     - 3. reset SMC/PRAM
     - 4. reinstall keynote
     - 5. install 10.7 combo update...
- I followed step 1 & 2: the problem was systemwide, and booting into safe mode did not help
- then I just tried to update keynote via the appstore to see if that would help. It did help, it seems all good again.
interesting that the support guy on the phone did not mention this first, but wanted to let me go through all kinds of steps - even though I told him EXACTLY what osX/keynote version I used, down to the build!

My phone blacked out, will not turn on, and i did not update to the new software! So what is my Apple iPhones5s problem?

My iPhone blacked out, and will not turn on. I did not update to the new software! So what is my Apple iPhone 5s problem?
A lot of issues with iPhones lately, maybe apple has an issue developing and implementing their inovations.

Hi InUtero,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I can understand your frustration if your iPhone is not turning on as expected. The first thing I would suggest in this situation is a reset. Please use the following article for instructions on how to reset your iPhone. Please be sure to let me know if you need further assistance.
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
Have a great day,
Joe

My iPad will black out, then go to the home page while viewing an app, anyone else have this problem? Do I have to replace it?

My iPad will black out, then go to the home page while viewing an app, anyone else have this problem? Do I have to replace it?

What version ipad and which version ios are you using?
Try this:
Make sure IOS is updated to latest version
Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
(no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).

Problems With Saving Video in Lightroom 4. Blacked-out Frames

Hi,
I have edited 145 clips for a video I'm putting together in LR4. After saving them, most of the clips have a few frames at the beginning blacked-out, or patchy black. I do not like this effect. Does anyone know how I might correct this? Thanks!
Nick

Maybe it was an issue with my computer or graphics card.

Standard def STB repeatedly blacks out for a second or 2

A site search on "black out" does not turn up a similar issue, of course it may be my search skills are lacking.
New subsciber since Sep 2010. I have 3 boxes, 2 standard QIP2500 phase 3 (basement/MBR) and 1 hi-def (LR). Hi def TV in MBR, standard in other 2. Both standards would on occassion 'black out' for just a second or 2 ever since original install. No problem with the hi-def. One standard is wired with coax, one with s-video, the hi-def with HDMI. When the black out occurs, the screen will freeze for an instant, then the screen goes black, then it comes back. The information on the box does not black out, the TVs don't power-off and restart. It's just the screen goes blank and then comes back. It happens without any seeming warning, and will happen at any time of day. Sometimes it will happen repeatedly, sometimes it won't happen for a long time. Both boxes have been repeatedly reset and rebooted with no improvement. During one tech call the tech had me relocate one of the standard boxes to the hi-def location to isolate that it wasn't a location (in-house cable) problem. I thought it curious since it was happening at 2 different locations but went through the drill anyway. The relocated standard worked for a few minutes, then went black for a second as the problem does. Plugging the high-def back in resolved the issue at that location. The tech said he would send 2 new standard boxes. The replacement boxes have not resolved the issue. Any suggestions?

if it's doing that on two different boxes using both coax and s-video then I think that leaves a possibility of the coax. that would be a unusual symptom of a bad coax/splitter but try this.
Wait for it to start acting up - when it starts acting up, stay tuned to that station, and hit your menu > customer support > in home agent > network diagnostics and click ok to start.
check the video signal using that menu selection. after it's done running it will give you a general message like "you're video signals are not in the optimal range" after you see that, hit info and then look at the SNR DB it should give you a number.
32-36 is optimal, below that is questionable.
If it is below that then it's probably going to be a problem with the splitter at your house, and you would either replace it yourself, or call verizon to replace it. be sure to tell them the DB

Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 15" Blacks Out Without Warning

Quick Summary of Problem: My MacBook Pro is currently shutting down without warning. It would be more accurate to say that the screen goes blank but the machine remains on as can be heard by the fan. Nothing resolves it without powering down and restarting. It has occurred when attached to a power source or via the battery.
My machine specs: Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 15” with 500GB hard drive, 8GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics/nVidia GeForce GT 330M with 512MB, anti-glare 15” screen with max resolution 1680 x 1050). Running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with 2013-001 Security Patch installed.
I have AppleCare which commenced when I first bought the machine in July 2010.
System Profiler says my battery condition is ‘Normal’. Cycle count: 610.
Detailed Summary of Problem: Back in January, my MacBook Pro shut down several times without warning. Each time, I was creating selections on high resolution imagery in Adobe Photoshop CS5.
Not long after, I saw the ‘MacBook Pro SMC Firmware Update 1.7’ relased on Feb 12 (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1633) and installed it via Software Update. By coincidence or not, my MBP behaved much better afterwards and the seemingly random blank screens requiring a restart disappeared.
But then I installed the ‘Security Update 2013-001 (Snow Leopard)’(http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1642) via Software Update and that’s the only thing I can really remember changing to my system. Since then, the black-outs have reappeared. As before, I was usually using Photoshop and working with high resolution imagery. However, one time the machine blacked-out, I was simply doing a two-finger scroll on the built-in trackpad whilst in Chrome (Version 25.0.1364.172).
The blackout has occurred twice now not being connected to power, and twice with it being connected to a wall socket. Needless to say, I lost work in Photoshop (even though I’ve begun to save more regularly) and now it feels like it’s a ticking time bomb and I don’t know when it’s going to go off.
One thing I’ve found rather odd is that in the crash log, the kernal version doesn’t seem right for Snow Leopard:
Kernel version:
Darwin Kernel Version 10.8.0: Tue Jun 7 16:33:36 PDT 2011; root:xnu-1504.15.3~1/RELEASE_I386
System model name: MacBookPro6,2 (Mac-F22586C8)
The full crash log can be found at the bottom of this post.
Fixes I’ve tried:
1) Resetting the NV-RAM has done nothing. (was suggested
2) I’ve tried reinstalling the ‘MacBook Pro SMC Firmware Update 1.7’ by downloading the manual installer from Apple, however it now says ‘Alert: This software is not supported on your system’ which in a way makes sense given I’d already applied the firmware update, but a more accurate message along the lines of ‘This firmware update has already been installed’ would be more reassuring.
3) If all else fails, I could resort to copying over a backup I created with Carbon Copy Cloner, which was done before I reinstalled the 2013-001 Security Update for Snow Leopard. But that’s a bit of a headache too, because my documents I’ve updated since the backup will be out of sync. Another reason this isn’t a great solution is that I can’t take advantage of the 2013-001 security update, nor future ones.
Any suggestions? There’s probably no good time for something like this to happen, but this is a particularly bad time – I’m currently beginning design and finished art freelancing and brushing up on some applications I haven’t used in years. Nor am I going to make an impression meeting with recruiters without my folio being presented from my MBP.
I’ve already booked a Genius appointment 2.5 days from now, but all help and ideas greatly appreciated!

I am sorry. The page that came up has an AD for issues with a 13" MacBook Pro in the corner. I read the AD as if it were part of the article and assumed the whole page referred to the 13" model. My Mistake.
However, the issue described by TS4088 is not a soldering problem. It is a Latent Defect -- a flaw built into certain batches of those chips from the day they were packaged and installed.
If your Mac fails the VST test used to detect this Latent Defect, re-flowing the solder is likely to have NO EFFECT on its performance -- the solution is the remove the defective chip and replace with a good one.
There certainly can be problems in these and other Macs where a re-flow would be beneficial. But I caution Readers not to generalize your solution to Macs that are known to fail VST. Re-flow alone will not solve the Latent Defect problem.

Prior saved .pdf sometimes has blacked out content. How can I prevent this?

I use Mac OS 9 Maverick, read email in Mail.app and Yahoo.Mail, switch between Safari and Firefox for browsing (because Safari does not allow Flash videos to appear on pages). When I want to save an email or an html file or report as .pdf, I use Command-P and select Save As PDF from the Print popup. Normally, I can go back years later and read the .pdf document in the Home File I filed it in using Adobe Reader. Sometimes, however, when I open a .pdf file--and I cannot tell prior to opening it--all of the content has been blacked out. It is as if someone redacted the document after filing it, which I don't do.
How can I prevent these redactions? The content being blacked out varies from extremely personal and important health files to simple email correspondence I want to save. Sometimes I have paid for a document and have to contact the publisher to send hard copy via USPS due to this problem.
What am I missing here? Do I need a specific plug-in? Is there a way to retrieve the blacked-out content from my computer stored file?

Why is my Macbook Pro suddenly and constantly shutting down/crashing on me and giving me a blacked out or blued out screen with lines? Seems like a total system failure is happening?

Macbook Pro- shortly after upgrading to free software upgrade to Mavericks- 10.9.5-
has suddenly been freezing up, but went more directly to 'shutting down,' CRASHING on its own. Most of the time, if I'm even able to successfully get the laptop turned back on, it only stays up/on for a few moments before repeating the failure. The failure is often accompanied with the monitor going 'blank,' or most typically either 'blacking out,' or going blue/green or grey screen with lines or grids all over the monitor. All Desktop visibility, functions or applications in process disappears. This has caused repetetive 'forced shut downs,' which I never usually do, unless prompted to because I have no choice like this.... Or as I said, the computer itself will just shut down and turn off by itself.... Can anyone tell me what this issue is, and I'm pretty sure other Mac users have seen this exact thing I'm describing happening on their laptops, with their systems or on their monitors. Someone please explain or point me in the right direction... as naturally my laptop just went out of warranty as well.... And I don't know if this means the entire system is basically corrupted, dying/dead... and or if it is a monitor issue, a hardware issue, software issue or if there is anything that can be done to restore, repair it, etc.? Also another thing I have noticed ever since getting this laptop- (few years old now...) is that it runs VERY HOT... has in fact burned my lap /skin many times... and seems like the fan or internal operating systems/functions are also perhaps not functioning properly. Can this also be causing the problem? Or is it a corruption or virus of some kind? etc. Thank you.

What you describe sounds like a hardware issue. Unfortunately, you'll need to get that checked out by Apple. If you have an Apple Store near you, make an appointment with the Genius Bar and take the machine in for evaluation.

My secondary monitor flashes and blacks out after the 10.7 install. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I have installed 10.7 and the secondary monitor flashes and blacks out. I downgraded back to 10.6 and the problem went away. I reinstalled 10.7 and the same problem happened again. The monitor blacks in and out especially when the pointer is placed in the dock area, but it still happens all the time. My secondary monitor is a ViewSonic 22 inch that is connected to a DVI to display adapter. Any solutions??
Thanks

Talked to AppleCare and it's most likely the fact that my MacBook has 3.0 USB ports and my non official charging cable can't support that. So yeah, I'll try a new cable, hopefully that's the fix.

Mac Mini 2011 screen blacks out during heavy screen activity

I have a Mac Mini 2011 i5 2.3Ghz with Intel HD video. It's connected to a 30" LCD 2560x1600 (Dell WFP3008) via mini-DP to DP cable and a 22" LCD 1920x1080 (Samsung LCD TV) via HDMI to HDMI cable.
For the first few weeks I had it connected to the 30" only and it was fine. Then I hooked up the Samsung as a second display and the problems started.
The problem is that the Dell blacks out briefly, then comes back. It is not "drawing" the screen black, the signal to the Dell gets disrupted momentarily so the monitor has no signal so it goes black. Then it resyncs with the signal and the display is back. This only happens to the Dell, during the disruption, the Samsung image stays put. I know it is a signal disruption because the Dell shows a displayport icon showing that it has just resynced to that input.
The problem happens more frequently when more things are going on; like if I have a window or multiple windows playing video, then the disruption happens more. If I disconnect the Samsung, it happens less. It could even happen if a web browser window taking up a large portion of the 30" screen does a full page update, it will disrupt. If I am running Adobe Lightroom, it seems to happen more also.
When it happens it seems like messages like this appear in the console, although i can't say they are directly correlated:
6/1/12 8:28:46.000 PM kernel: IOSurface: buffer allocation size is zero
I'm thinking perhaps the mini is running low on memory since the 2560x1600 is pretty high res and then add the 1080p screen and stuff being updated, perhaps it runs out of memory and disrupts the signal while it garbage collects? Pure speculation.
Has anybody else seen this and have any clues on how to resolve it? Thanks.

I should clarify that when I say perhaps the mini is running low on memory, I mean low on shared video memory, since the computer has 16GB installed. I'm not sure how to view or test shared video memory allocation.
