Dark bridge background = blurred window

After being driven absolutley batty, resetting apple plists, display settings, zapping PRAM and anything else I could think of, I finally figured it out: if I set my CS4 Bridge 3.0.0.464 "Image Backdrop" to anything darker than about 50% gray, my whole screen blurs. I don't just mean the Bridge window, I mean my menu bar, desktop, everything.
This also happens in CS4 Photoshop with any dark Interface background color, in any mode -- including full screen.
Needless to say, I'm curious if this is a general bug or something specific to my setup. But I do really want to fix it, because working against gray just won't cut it. I don't think I had this problem in 10.5.7 -- or at least not as often.
Running OS X 10.5.8 on a 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro, mirrored to a Sony CRT Trinitron Multiscan 400PS.
Any help, much appreciated!

For the record, and anyone else who has this happen, the Apple help forums pointed me in the right direction: a loose monitor cable. It seems crazy, but there you have it.

Dark blue background and weird icon placement on jump list (recent files) of apps in task bar

Hi, I recently made a factory reset of W8.1, and now I'm seeing a weird and very annoying dark blue backgound in the list of recent files that appears when you right click an app pinned to the taskbar. Also, the "pin to taskbar" and "close window" icons show sort of out of place and apparently larger than normal I've tried looking through every possible setting but I can't find anything related to this list in particular. Any ideas?
Thanks in advanced.

Hello @Adrianrff, I understand that a dark blue background and strange icon placement on the jump list of apps in the task bar of your computer, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter! Since this issue occurred after performing a factory reset, I suggest performing a full system recovery by following the steps in this resource on Backing Up Your Files (Windows 8), as well as Performing an HP system recovery (Windows 8). This should return the jump list and icon sizes back to factory settings.
If the issue continues, please contact our technical support for further assistance in this matter by clicking the link below to get the support number for your region.

I hope this helps!
Regards Thanks for the suggestion, MechPilot. I did a full system recovery but unfortunately it did not work. Apparently the color of the background matches the color chosen in Windows first startup, but I don't remember having chosen white the first time, everything looked fine then. Any other suggestion?

Problem opening Bridge CS5 in Windows 7

When I open Bridge CS5 in Windows 7, I get a pop-up window from User Account Contro that asks "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?" The program listed is Bridge. If I say NO, Bridge doesn't open. If I say YES, Bridge opens normally. This question pops up every time I open Bridge but not with any other CS5 applications or any other program. Any suggestions? Thanks,

This is a permissions issue within the OS. Next time you start Bridge right click on the icon and select "run as administrator" and choose yes. Perhaps it will stick that way.

I guess it's designed so that it does not have to reload the Background Engine everytime you run the next report.
Maybe in your case you do not run reports frequently, but in our office report runs are quite often so it's a feature that is quite welcomed.

The new dark gray background of the firefox 6, is there a way to make it white again? It dark gray back makes it hard to view. PLEASE Help, or can get back to Firefox 5? Otherwise I have to change to safari. Can not stand the dark background!!

I have been a firefox user for quite a while and have loved it. I can't even count how many people I convinced to switch from boring old Explorer to Firefox, but after this latest update, I got so frustrated I uninstalled it. I just reinstalled it again in the hopes that you guys had "corrected" the background issue, only to be disappointed. I would love to continue using firefox, but find it very difficult to deal with the "new look" which puts a dark gray background on previously white background making visually unappealing and hard to read. Please tell me if there is way to change that or a way to go back to previous version, otherwise I will have sadly move to safari or chrome or heavens forbid explorer! Thanks.

if changing lock screen is available in windows store C# how about changing the desktop background using Windows store C#?

Hi icce cage,
To change the Windows lock screen we can use this API:
LockScreen class with set image methods.
To change the desktop background, it is not possible as I know.

Font color against dark font backgrounds changing to white in Word 2010

Hello. I am a long-time Word and VBA user and have been experiencing a problem with Word 2010 wherein font colors against a dark font background color always appear, and print, as if they had been set to white. By contrast, Word 2007 would retain
whatever font color was set for each character (whether through the standard user interface or VBA). Has anyone else run into this problem? Is there a fix for it? Thanks.

Thanks for your response, Eugene.
It's x86.
I actually had set up an image of a comparison of Word 2007 vs. Word 2010, but when I've tried to include it here, a message comes up that says "Body text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account."
I had previously been warned that I needed to provide a phone message to "verify" my account. I don't like giving out my phone number when it's not relevant to what I'm doing. I'll explore to see if there are other options where I don't have
to provide private information in order to be able to post images in my messages in this forum. (I'm not up to any harm here!) I do think the image that I set up would be very helpful to share; it shows clearly the difference in how Word 2007 vs.
Word 2010 treat font/text color against dark font/text backgrounds.

NB300 - Changing background on Windows 7 Starter

Hey,
I have useless windows 7 starter on my nb300 and wan to know if there's a toshiba driver on my harddrive that will let me change my background picture as starter doesnt allow it. i dont want to buy an upgrade as i just bought the pc! Help!

Hi Jessywolfe,
Normally its not possible to change the background on Windows 7 starter so maybe an upgrade to Home Premium would be an option.
If you search with Google you will find good tutorials how to change the background. There is an additional program called *Oceanis Change Background Windows 7* that can change the background.
Check this!!!

Mission Control Background Blur?

After updating to Yosemite, I noticed that when going into mission control the background blurs for all my desktops that i can scroll through. Is there a way to disable the blur effect? I just prefer to see my backgrounds when in mission control like it was in Mountain Lion.

Thats how they designed the look on yosemite. I dont believe there is a way to alter that.
I also kind of liked to see my unaltered background..
But i guess its growing on me - getting used to it... Goes with the translucency theme...
Choice would be nice tho

How can I change the background blur effect on Yosemite login screen?

How can I turn off the background blur effect on the Yosemite login screen on my 27" iMac?
Each time my family changes to a different user on the iMac, the wallpaper blurs (other than the small login box). It is as if you have lost your vision temporarily when such a large display becomes blurred. It is particularly bad if there is a lot of contrast in the colors of the wallpaper.

Hi,
the VDI login screen/desktop selector uses the configured default locale from the Sun Ray kiosk session. You can change the default by logging into the Sun Ray admin UI (http://yourserver:1660) and selecting the Advanced - Kiosk Mode tab. Click on Edit and enter the desired locale (e.g. de_utf8) in the Locale field. Click OK to store your changes.
The next time a new kiosk session starts up it will take into account your changes. You can terminate all existing kiosk sessions by executing a cold Sun Ray services restart (see the Servers tab). Alternatively, you can also just quit your current kiosk session by clicking on "More Options - Quit" in the VDI login screen.
Please notice one caveat here: the specified locale must be supported on your system. For example, execute locale -a on a terminal to get a list of all your currently installed locales. If you specify a locale that does not exist on your system, then the kiosk session will ignore this and it will have no effect on the VDI login screen.
Hope that helps.
- Klaus
