Display is not working But Through Screen Sharing I can Access my computer

Ok. After turning my computer off and then turning it back on a couple hours later the screen would not turn on. Im still able to log in. With screen Sharing I can acces my computer and system profiler shows that my RAM cards are OK. However when I click on Graphics/Display it unexpectedly quits.
What could the problem be? Any help is greatly appreciated : )
Ps. I wrote this through screen sharing out of my account on the display-less computer.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I wonder if you could have the NVIDIA chip problem?
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
Is the display totally dead, or can you see your desktop if you shine a strong light through the apple on the back of the display? If so, you may have a different issue with just the internal display. A good test would be to see what happens with an external display connected directly to the MBP.
Good luck!

Upgraded to Yosemite and can no longer remote into my work iMac through screen sharing- it is turned on in settings?

My screen sharing functionality did not show up in the dock with an updated icon. It had a question mark- shows my connections but nothing works, I did make sure screen sharing is on and also connected to VPN. Once I tried to launch screen sharing nothing happens. Such an elegant solution in Mavericks not does not work. Ugh. Help!

This is the post that got me set up- I too am running an older version at work vs. Yosemite. As soon as I followed is advice everything worked.

I believe the location of the "Screen Sharing" app has changed, which explains why if you had it in the dock it has been replaced by a ?
Don't forget you can launch screen sharing (once your VPN connection is up) by typing in the Safari destination slot vnc://remotemachinename:portnumber (omit the :port number if you are using the default VNC port, 5900). This should launch Screen Sharing and put its icon in the dock. You can drag the Screen Sharing icon to the left of your dock and it will hopefully remain there after you exit Screen Sharing, or you can right-click on the icon when it's running and select Options->Show in Finder to find out its new location and drag its icon to the permanent entries in your dock.
Hope this helps; worked for me.

Try doing a reset. Hold down the home and power buttons for about 15 seconds or until Apple logo appears. No data will be lost.

Mac Mini + A1038 Cinema Display does not work

Hi,
I have a 2009 model Mac Mini with mini-dvi and mini-display port's on the rear. I can connect any of my DVI based monitors to the mac mini using either the mini-dvi to dvi cable or the mini-displayport to dvi cable. All monitors except for the A1038 model Apple Cinema Display.
The cinema display works with 3 other computers with DVI ports, turns right on and is detected right away. When plugged into the mini it does nothing. Sometimes I can get it to work with the mini-dvi to dvi adapter but that is sporadic.
This is the same behavior with a 2009 model mac book pro and macbook. Using the mini-displayport to dvi cable the cinema display does not work but 3 other monitors do.
So my question is, why does apple hardware only work with non-apple hardware?

Is the A1038 the old, plastic Cinema Display that doesn't have a power cord or power supply? It only has a video cable with the special ADC on it? If that's the case, it needs this to run from a newer Mac:

The wish list only works on apps you have to pay for. To get it tap the icon of the app you want to save. After it opens at the upper right corner is a box with a arrow. Tap that then tap add to wish list list in the box that opens.

Photos in 9.2 do not appear when viewed through screen sharing

I recently upgraded my Mac Mini, which stores my master iPhoto library, to iPhoto 9.2. Because this Mac Mini is also used as a media server for an AppleTV, I almost always operate the computer through screen sharing using a MacBook Pro, rather than connecting it to a television. Both computers are running OS 10.6.8.
Since upgrading this setup to iPhoto 9.2, I can no longer view photos in my iPhoto library through screen sharing. Previously, I had noticed that I could not view certain other things through screen sharing (such as watching DVD's). For example, I couldn't view individual photos in detail in iPhoto, but I could view them in grid view. Now I cannot even view them in grid view anymore.
Is there a graphics library that is not compatible with screen sharing that is now being completely used by iPhoto? Is there a setting that I can check? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Michael.
I will give it a try.

Subject:        Some CGM graphics do not appear when
FrameMakerfiles are converted to PDF
First you should update to the latest version of Acrobat 8, since you say
you are running Acrobat 8, you should update to 8.2.5. Update your
FrameMaker to 7.2p158. Those two steps might do the trick. If that fails
try using a different settings file. Perhaps High Quality or Press
Quality. I would never use Standard for anything where fidelity is
important.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Installed Premiere Pro CS4 but video display does not work?

I just got my copy of CS$. After installing Premiere I found two things that seem very wrong:
1) video display does not work, not even the little playback viewer next to improted film clips located on the project / sequence window. Audio works fine.
2) the UI is way too slow for my big beefy system.
My pc is a dual boot Vista-32 and XP system with 4GB of memory installed and nvidia geforce 280 graphics board with plenty of GPU power. The CS4 is installed on the Vista-32 partition. My windows XP partition on the same PC with Premiere CS2 works great and real fast.
Any ideas how to solve this CS4 install issue?
Ron

I would like to thank Dan, Hunt, and Haram:
The problem is now very clear to me. The problem only shows up with video footage imported into PP CS4 encoded with "MS Video 1" codec. So this seems to be a bug. The codec is very clearly called out and supported within various menues but video with this codec just will not play in any monitor or preview window. In addition the entire product looks horrible with respect to performance while PP CS4 trys its best to play the video. Audio will start playing after about 30 seconds. And once in awhile part of video shows up at the wrong magnification before blanking out again.
My suggestion to the Adobe team: fix the bug and add some sample footage to the next release so new installations can test their systems with known footage.

First off, your installation disc is in all likelihood faulty.

Phone screen NOT working but phone IS working

Like the subject says, my screen is not working, but phone works fine.
I was able to guess the 'turn on USB storage' button and I got everything backed up.
I didn't drop or let my anger loose on the phone =P.
This is my 3rd replacement phone! I read another thread on the first page of someone complaining they are on their 4th phone. Prior to that reading, I was hoping I could upgrade or convince them to give me a NEW phone rather than a used. I guess that won't be happening.
I also tried all sorts of battery pulls including waiting 30min before I put it back in...none of this worked.
So I guess my best bet atm is to take it in to the store?
Thanks!

I am on my second Droid. The first one was damaged due to me dropping it. I have insurance and had a replacement sent to me. A month later I get the BSOD Black or Blank Screen of Death. I did the battery thing as well as a hard rest and nothing.
I am three months away from an upgrade and I am starting to think of downgrading to just an ordinary phone.
It seems that smartphones are too problematic and require dealing with multiple parties i.e Verizon, Motorola, and the Insurance company for the phone.

Should I check the memory cards themselves? Reseat them?
Yes.
Memtest X or Rember to test the RAM.
Reseat is also good.
The iPhone 4 doesn't like USB 1.1 much.
after the update the computer was working well, except for this freeze when ever I connect iPhone.
I'd try USB 2.0 PCI. That's how I connect my iPhone 4s, and have connected all iPhones and iPods, to my G4.
Never an issue.
Can't say the same for USB 1.1.......
The above (previous post) linked PCI card is cheap enough.
Want cheaper, try this:

The NEC chipset is the desired chipset, regardless of what OS the maker says is compatible.
OS X has native NEC chipset USB support.

I dropped my phone in a toilet, the sound and vibrate are working but the screen will not turn on, what should I do?

I dropped my phone in a toilet, the sound and vibrate are working but the screen will not turn on, what should I do? do I just need a new screen or what? I'm freaking out here

Don't freak out, just get over it. It's probably done.
What should I do if I drop my phone in the toilet?
Apple may offer you an refurbished iPhone in exchange for yours, for about half the cost of a new one.
I wouldn't be too specific about just how it got wet

Ipad screen is locked. SLIDE function will not work but screen does still rotate.

ipad screen is locked. slide function will not work but screen does rotate...

Try this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
