Color is all weird. Working fine but has green and purple throughout. What does this mean?
Green throughout photos, purple all over Facebook. Working fine. Have not even had it a year. Any suggestions. I turned it off and on and reset it.

Hi all,
My computer a few days ago wouldn't start up, would just stay at the gray loading screen forever. So as a result I tried to reformat the hard drive and reinstall, but I can't reinstall, until I erase the hard drive, but when I try to erase the hard drive it says the erase failed due to an input/output error. What does this mean? What can I do to fix my computer?The startup drive is failing, or there is some other internal hardware fault.
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional — ask if you need guidance.
If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed. -
A family member set up my time capsule and sayy it's workign correcly but the light on it isn't green, it is yellow...what does this mean?
If the Time Capsule is operating normally, the light will be green.
If the amber light is blinking, something is not adjusted correctly, or there may be an update available for the Time Capsule.
Do you have the device that was used to set up and configure the Time Capsule there? Is this a Mac? If yes, we need to know what operating sysem it is using.
If you are not sure, click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen and then click About This Mac. Post back with the OS X Version number that you see there. -
The iphone 3GS was in an otter box--in a pocket--and went in a mudbath for a couple of minutes. Yes, really. None of the water sensors turned pink on the phone and now, two days later, the apple icon pulses on and off every 15 seconds when the phone is hooked into a USB cable to charge. What does this mean and what should I do?
It looks as if there's a problem with your GPU. With a Retina machine, that would mean replacement of just about everything, except, perhaps, the flash storage drive.
Print you kernel panic when you go to your Apple Store appointment. I'm betting that it's a faulty GPU but they will be able to diagnose exactly where the problem lies.
Good luck,

About a month ago my fan started making a weird clicking/whirring noise. It eventually stopped and I thought nothing of it (this might be unrelated, but I just want you all to have as much info as possible).
Then, yesterday, my Mac was acting funny. I was trying to watch netflix and whenever I clicked on a video, BAM the whole screen went black and the sound stopped. But the keyboard stayed lit. The only way to rouse the computer out of this state was to hard shut it off (ten seconds on the power button), and then turn it back on. Except, sometimes when I turned it back on, the screen would go white and play the mac startup musc and then immediately go black again. It was really weird and took me 2-3 times to be successful with even booting up the computer.
I ran a hardware check and it said nothing was wrong. I tried to reinstall the OS but when I entered recovery mode, the internet just wouldn't work. Like... the wi fi found no networks, even though I'm sitting in the exact same spot I was in yesterdat with the entire wi-fi wave filled and it's totally fine.
I don't know what this means. I'm planning on taking my mac in tomorrow, but I was wondering if you guys could help save me some time.
Here's what my most recent error report looked like:

Also really quickly: I don't know where to put this, but the first time my computer reset, the desktop wallpaper turned back to the wallpaper I had before the one I currently have selected. That was really weird/random. Thoughts?It looks as if there's a problem with your GPU. With a Retina machine, that would mean replacement of just about everything, except, perhaps, the flash storage drive.
Print you kernel panic when you go to your Apple Store appointment. I'm betting that it's a faulty GPU but they will be able to diagnose exactly where the problem lies.
Good luck,

Hi
The name of my macbook has gone from username's macbook to username's macbook (2). Does anyone know what this mean and how i change it back?
Thanks in advance.Hi,
This can happen when the system gets confused about some network connection. It can even happen sharing a printer.
It is a harmless bug and you can change it back to its name without the number easily, in the System Preferences, Sharing panel, computer name. -
I have an early 2008 13" macbook and all of a sudden, the backlight went off. I can still see the screen using a flashlight. I tried resetting the PRAM and holding the power button for 5-10 seconds with battery out and power cable unplugged. Nothing. I figured out that bringing the brightness down all the way and then back up a notch turns it back on. But unless I keep the brightness at 1-4 notches, the light goes off after 10-30 seconds. At this point, I have no idea what to do.
Have you tried resetting the SMC as well as the PRAM? Here is the link...

I Stat Pro: 10 MB free memory but 256 MB swap file. What does this mean?
I have a 20 inch Intel Core Duo 2 Ghz iMac with the stock 512 MB memory stick.
The most intensive things I do are video and photo editing, and the system does seems to lag or sometimes dvd menus stutter.
Do I need more memory?
I Stat Pro widget will say that I have around 10 MB of free memory, but the swap file will say 256 MB or even 512 MB.A swap file is memory that is on your hard drive. There usually is a minimum amount, and it will increase drastically when you run out of physical RAM which you appear to be doing. For example, I have 2 gigs and I have almost 1.5 unused typing here and a 64 mb swap file.
You also have to consider Rosetta if you are running Adobe PSCS2 and other Power PC version software. If so, Rosetta uses up a ton of memory to run the non-universal apps on the Intel Macs.
In my opinion, you need at least 1 gig, and will be way happier with 2 if running Adobe and MS Office stuff, just like others have posted.
DDR also requires matched pairs to run in dual state, so if you had 2 sticks of 512 or 2 of 1 gig, your speed will increase.
Bottom line, if it's fast enough for you and you don't mind the hard drive churning, don't let us spend your money

I turned my Iphone 4 off. When I went to turn it back on, up popped a silver screen that read Iphone with no service. My service has not been cancelled. What does this mean, please help?
If a reset doesn't work, try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
2. Connect USB cable to computer
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad -
Trying to update my iTunes but keep getting the error message "the URL could not be opened" what does this mean and how do I resolve this? It's always worked fine in the past!
Select a broken track and press ctrl-i to Get Info. Look on the summary tab for the location where iTunes "thinks" the file should be. Where is it really? Post back the two locations and I can suggest the best approach.

Why has my monitor suddenly begun to have a moiré pattern all over – it is even showing up on my icons on the dock? It appears to be very thin bright green vertical lines. I have a 2007 iMac which is running 10.6.8. What does this mean? I've attached some screen shots below.
Also experiencing some funky issues with my wireless keyboard. With new batteries, it will just stop functioning. Certain keys intermittently won't work. Also the fans go on as soon as I turn the computer on - some times they stay on and sometimes they don't. Ever since upgrading the operating system - I've been having many issues with this iMac. Not happy. Any answers out there?Thanks for your reply LexSchellings, There is no disc in the drive and I went through the suggestions you put forward on the phone with Apple support without any luck. I can put a disc in but it pops straight back out again without registering on finder.
The idea of using an external drive was to enable me to avoid the cost and loss of productivity whilst machine in repair... if I have to take it in to get the old drive removed than I might as well have a new internal drive put in, although I do worry about the reliability of these apple drives given my experience with this one coupled with my limited online research ... on line forums seem to be full of people with the same problem (although perhaps searching such forums is bound to make it seem a common problem as users with perfectly working machines are less likely to post (?)) Your reply suggests that no external drive will work whilst the existing drive is in place.
As a postscript: I do realise that this is a user forum ...my secondary question was asking if anyone knows how to put forward a case/complaint to Apple... I can't find a link on the support page that would enable me to do so and I was wondering if anyone on this user forum had any ideas/experience.. -
I'm a first time Mac user and I went to play my music on Itunes out loud and all the music I previously purchased will not play and then a pop up appears saying my computer is not authorized? what does this mean and how can I fix it?
You need to authorize the new computer that youre working with. First hover over the store button at the top of the screen and then select the authorize this computer button then a popup will appear where you have to put in your Apple ID and Password. Hopefully this works for you
