Did the thunderbolt update just kill my ability to use my external monitor?

My external monitor stopped working after performing tonight's software updates. 2011 MBA 13inch running 10.7.4  Computer takes 2 minutes to boot to a grey pattern on the MBA and an all blue desktop on my external.  Boots fine when I unplug the monitor and reboot.  Any idea what's going on?

update #2:  It's not the display/thunderbolt port...it's the USB adapter connected to the monitor (serving as a hub)...wont boot when plugged in, boots fine when I unplug it and wait to plug it in until after booting...only devices plugged in to the monitor are my external drive and an iphone cable.  Never experineced this problem before, only change made was the software updates.  It's definitely not trying to boot off the external (same problem no matter what's plugged in to the monitor).

  • Did the iTunes update  just   kill my iPod?

    Earlier today, I updated my copy of iTunes on my computer at work while I had my iPod plugged in and charging. (Normally I wouldn't update iTunes, but wasn't paying attention and kinda pressed "ok" without thinking)
    Now I can't use my iPod.
    After installing iTunes and restarting, I got a message saying "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes."
    I've tried going through the restarting and restoring process a million times over, using the newest version, using the original one on it, ANYTHING. I can get as far as iTunes saying "your ipod has been restored to factory settings....restarting... blah blah blah"
    Then it either restarts and doesn't show up again.. or as what seems to mostly happen, it'll start the whole "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes." process again.
    I'm frustrated to no end!
    Also interesting to note is that the "do not disconnect" and "okay to disconnect" screens on the iPod itself don't look the way they normally do on the iPod Classic. they're non-backlit and look like the ones from my old 4th gen iPod (I have no clue what they look like on the 5th gen).
    PLEASE can someone help me out or point me in some way to something that can help ?

    THe update messed up my 80gb too. I spent over an hour on the phone with Apple care yesterday - and they screwed it up even worse. (I manage music & video from my home computer and my calander from my work computer.) It used to work fine - now I can't even get my work computer to recognize the ipod as a USB drive! If they would just re-post 7.5, I think I could fix it myself - but they took it off the site completely.
    I told (both people at) Apple care that this is the kind of crap microsoft pulls. They send out updates with bugs. Apple is supposed to NOT do that! I am so mad right now! I just got this brand new ipod for Christmas.
    Today, I am supposed to order my new laptop for work. I have been given the choice of PC or Mac. Until yesterday, I was gun-ho Mac. Now I'm not so sure. I mean - they couldn't fix my new ipod after an hour on the phone? What kind of issues am I going to have with a laptop? The closest Apple store is well over an hour away.
    Any suggestions??

  • Just did the iTunes update that iTunes said was available now iTunes won't open, keep getting Runtime Error message.  R6034 An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.  Please contact the apps support team for more info.

    Is anyone else having this problem?
    I tried to re-install and got the following message:  iTunes was not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes.  Error 7 (Windows error 1114)
    Does this mean I have now lost everything?

    I just had the same error: 
    R6034
    An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.  Please contact the apps support team for more info.
    I went to http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925 and did a complete removal and reinstallation of iTunes. You MUST follow the directions here exactly...it's more than just iTunes that must be removed, and it MUST be done in the order in which the support article says.  I followed the exact instructions, and iTunes is back on my machine (no more C runtime error) and you do NOT lose your music...it's all in my library, as it was before.
    Good luck!

    Please see the bold.  If you're out of icloud storage, then you won't be able to backup to icloud unless you purchase more storage, but yet you said you backup to icloud.
    If you really did backup to icloud no data would be loss - sounds to me that it didn't backup since you had no more free icloud storage space.

    I`ve just bought a Mac Book pro 15", did the required updates and since two days ago it freezes. Now I can´t even start the computer. the screen is allways white. how can I solve this issue??

    The same thing happened to me... Since two days the ******* thing keeps freezing after a while. Then I try to reboot and the screen goes white and it doesn't boot. If I wait like half an hour it boots again.
    I thought it was a hardware problem, but the Apple Hardware Test founds nothing at all. I think it has to do with the software update I performed 2 days ago.

  • I have a iPhone 4 s I did the software update ages ago and lost my camera roll then did the update and they all came back then on Christmas eve they have all gone !!

    THis is now the 5 th time I have written this !!!
    I have a iPhone  4s i did the software update ages ago and lost the camera roll .....then I did the update and all my photos returned ...now on Christmas eve they all dissapeared
    I now just albums .... All Photos  but that only has 77 photos ,  and that's it over 1000 photos have just gone ??
    PLease help me !!

    Why should we care how many times you've written this?  Are you making multiple threads?  Are they being deleted by the Hosts?
    Did you make a backup of your iPhone before you updated the iOS?
    Did you import the photos to your computer?
    Were the photos in the Camera Roll, Photo Stream or synced iTunes albums?

  • I did the software update and now all the ATV does is have a blinking light.  On my TV there was the "notes" and the new cable shown.  I tried the restart (metal remote) Menu and down button and nothing happened.

    I did the software update and after downloading and loading the ATV just hung-up with a fast blinking white light on the front of ATV.  Tried a reset with the remote - Menu /downkey and nothing happened.  Is the software corrupt or did it wipe out my ATV?

    Apple TV 1st generation or 2nd?
    I would try plugging in the HDMI from the ATV to a different HDMI port on your TV and even trying the ATV on a different TV altogether...sounds like the HDMI port on your TV might be bad or a bad connection. Keep in mind you'll need to switch the TV input to the new HDMI port

    I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
    Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
    I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

    I have found since my above post that Apple has removed support for the Java Plugin2 in the Java Update 10 for OS X 10.5, so it won't come back.
    See:
    * [/questions/844734]
    The only way to get Java running with Firefox is use a parallel installation of a Firefox version that supports the Java Embedding Plugin and start that version for sites that require Java.<br />
    I don't know if the latest release of Firefox 3.6.x on Mac still has the embedding Java plugin.
