Display Issue after 10.9.2 update

After updating my Macbook Pro with Retina to 10.9.2 -- My display flickers for a second after sleep and or blank screen and then goes back to normal. Has anyone else been having display issues after updating?

Yes similar problem here: I have a MacBook Pro, 15 inch Retina, Mid 2012, and when I connect a secondary display via HDMI (and also HDMI-to-Thunderbolt) then the external monitor becomes the main display.
I have not figured out on how to switch back to former settings. My guess: it's a bug. A quick search confirms that many others have secondary display issues since 10.9.2

Iphone 5 issues after IOS 8.2 update: all the iphones in the house receive the same phone calls ONLY while we are at home. Any ideas on how to fix this?

That is a new "feature" described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
You can turn it off by going to Settings > FaceTime and changing "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off

hi, we are using mac mini's for our developement purpose. connecting the same through using Real VNC. Mac mini's are late 2009 and 2010. Now we have upgraded them to 10.8.5. after upgrading having display issues after launching the simulators, we are unable to view the icons we need to move the simulator (into different places) to view the icons.
Also we are having Mac book pro's (Late 2009 & 2010) after upgrading them to 10.8.5. Unable to launch the mac, getting only white screen with apple icon.
Let me know is there any specific Hardware (Graphic Cards) we need to use for the same.
Please provide me the early solutions.

Hi, try this first...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.

Is there any fix for the bluetooth connectivity issue after most recent OS update?

Seems to be a common problem particularly with bluetooth headseat connectivity. Any ideas?

There is no bluetooth connectivity issue after the recent OS update. There may be a problem with your phone, which may or may not be related to the update. A "common problem" looks like this in the forums:
I haven't seen any threads on BlueTooth with over 1.4 million views and over 12,000 replies, or even any vaguely close. For any problem that someone has there is bound to be someone else amoung 150 million users who have it. That doesn't make it a "common problem."
If you tell us what the problem is specifically and what you have done so far to try to resolve it someone can probably help you.

Early 2011 Macbook external display issues after firmware update

I have a 2011 MBPro 15". After performing the firmware update in late April, I have continual issues when I connect my monitor. The screen is blank and I can move the mouse tap the keyboard etc. The display may come up for a scond and then it will close and the machine goes back to sleep. More wiggling and the process starts over.
If I raise the lid it may bing up the external display. Restarting is the only sure fix.
I also was unable to make a presentation today because the projector I was connected to would not show the MBP display.
I tried all the key combinations, detect display etc. and nothing.
Can I somehow go back to the prior firmware? Other solutions?
SMC Version (system): 1.69f1
EFI Driver Version: 01.00.521

I recently did a software update to my MacBook pro and had a similar issue, on restart it gets to the apple logo then just shuts off, after multiple hours on the phone with apple care they told me that it was coincidence that it happened at the same time as the update and it would be costly to repair as it was either something to do with display or logic board. I took my MacBook into my retail location I bought it from and was told that they have had MULTIPLE people bring in macbooks with the SAME issue (I live in a really small city so the amount of people is quite large proportion wise) and that they could fix the issue by remotely resetting the MacBook at a cost of $130-$150. Relatively cheap considering what I was fearing, but if this is a common problem related to Apples update why are we paying to fix it and why is apple support saying its something major???

SSRS Report Viewer display issues after KB2888505 and now KB2898785

After patch KB2888505 both IE 9 and IE 10 started displaying cropped images with horizontal scroll bars when viewing SSRS Reports.  These reports functioned and fit the screen without scroll bars prior to this patch and returns
to normal once the patch is uninstalled.  There is no compatibility mode icon in the address bar and I have tried all browser modes in the F12 Developer Tools Menu with no change. Rolling back KB2888505 was a temp fix for my
users until KB2898785 was installed reverting back to the same cropped reports with the scroll bar. The only versions of IE in my environment are 9 and 10 and upgrading to 11 is not an option at this time. Others have reported this same issue so
maybe we can get more visibility on TechNet.

Hi,
These two KB include too many Individual updates. It's hard to figure out which exact update lead to this issue.
If you make sure the issue is caused by these updates package. The simple and easier way is to uninstall them.

IPad2 Issues after iOS 8.1 update

iPad2 64g wifi + cellular -   very slow and non-responsive since iOS 8.1 update. nonstandard Apps seem to be working fine.. it’s the standard item like photos and safari that don't respond.
photos - (which I use daily to show clients examples) will freeze and kick me out back to the home page when trying to do anything from open a photo for viewing to trying to delete a photo. Edit.. forget it.   better off using an alternate app to edit a photo as it locks up and crashes every time.   I really need to be able to view the photos on my iPad2
safari -   good luck using any hyper link…. It doesn’t respond.   Even at Apple’s website.   Sometimes it crashes but most of the time it just ignores me like I haven’t touched the screen
Overall - the touch screen is glitchy since the iOS 8.1 update. It was slow after the iOS 8.0 update but has become almost unusable after the 8.1 update.
I cannot afford to purchase a new iPad. And I really need to find a way to make this one work.
I did read about how to restore to an older iOS version.   The only problems are all of my laptop is Windows based and the instructions assumed you had a Mac.   I did a backup to iTunes prior to the 8.0 update but I have also done backups since.   So I am not sure I have a “clean” iOS 7 backup.
Any ideas would be appreciated   Thank you in advance for your help

For the touch issues in Safari, does scrolling or zooming the page before you try to tap a link make it work again? I've read a few posts that this may be a workaround for that issue.

Weird OSX display issues after going to webpage, only thing that fixes is Perm repair

I have a bizarre issue that i'd love some input on. Late 2009 iMac, Mountain Lion (then Mavericks).
I use Firefox to utilize a real estate website (Fusion MLS) for several months now. A couple of days ago, after i would log into the website and use it for a little bit, the rest of my tabs, apps, windows, would all start appearing as black boxes, or have glitched out (generally black) screen display issues. To be clear, other tabs inside the browser would be black, or partially black, and also the right half of my taskbar icons would be black silhouettes of the icon. BUT, the Fusion MLS website would still work fine. Closing the page, etc, would not fix the problem, it would be stuck like that no matter what i closed or opened, computer would function fine except for the display, but i couldnt see hardly any of the apps so I'd have to shutdown, but a simple reboot didnt fix it. After an hour of troubleshooting, I started off in Mountain Lion when the problem appeared, and in the process of troubleshooting I decided to upgrade to Mavericks to see if that would fix the problem, it didnt. Ultimately I discovered the only thing that fixes the problem is to boot into Safe Mode and Repair Permissions, then i can come back in as normal and everything is normal again (a standard reboot doesnt fix it, when logging back into OSX it would still have black silhouettes and all the app windows would be black).
So after the above I decided to just start using a different browser to go to this Fusion MLS website (Safari). Which worked fine for a day, but now when i go to the website, i have no problems, but when i put the computer to sleep, and bring it back, the windows are blacked out and icons silhouetted. So back to safe mode, repair perms, and then it works again. When i do the repair perms, there are usually no verbose things that it says it repairs, sometimes it says something about the PrinterList being 0 instead of 80, but thats it.
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated, I'm completely dumbfounded....

Now regular Repair Perms doesnt fix it, it has to be Diskwarriors Repair Perms. Also it happens anytime the computer is put to sleep for a length of time and brought back, regardless of whether the Fusion MLS website was gone to.

Excel & Word file don't display text after 10.6.4 update

Installed 10.6.4 update last week on an iMac and the cells within my excel sheets went blank. The data is still there but do not show up on screen. Tried several variation of start up and even reinstalled Office only for problem to exist still. New documents will display text but most of my existing office documents appear blank.
So... Today I reinstalled snow leopard and my text was back & displaying until I ran the OS updates. Every thing was fine until 10.6.4 and poof!!! there went my text in office. This glitch even effects some existing word documents. Graphic, images and pdf's don't seem to be effected. Any body else having this problem?
Just dumb founded....

I've been experiencing the same issue. I upgraded to 10.6.4 and I lost several fonts. The interesting thing is I also lost several power point images I had created. Shapes and lines were missing even though they did not involve the offending fonts, at least not directly. There was text elsewhere in the image that used it. Why this should obliterate the rest of the images I don't know.
The three offending Fonts for me were:
1) Times New Roman
2) Arial
3) Brush Script MT
Anywho, I managed to fix this on my machine so I'm posting how I did it here. I'm not so sure as to the why, but here it goes.
On my machine I have 4 font folders
1) -> System -> Library -> Fonts
2) -> Library -> Fonts
3) -> Users -> Me -> Library -> Fonts
4) -> Applications -> Office X -> Office -> Fonts (yes, I'm still running Office X from 2000)
Inside of the Font Book application, it was kind enough to point out I had duplicate fonts. Some of these were the fonts in question and others caused me no troubles. Go figure. Anyway, disabling one or the other of the duplicate fonts did not fix the problem.
Here's what did, though. In my case the duplicate fonts existed in the second of the font directories above (henceforth referred to as Font2) and the third of the font directories listed above (Font3). I browsed to these directories and copied the fonts to my desktop to have a back up. Back in Font Book, I told it to remove each instance of the Arial and Times New Roman fonts that would not display correctly in Excel (for the moment, I left Brush Script MT alone, kind of like a control)
Now at this point there were no Arial or Times New Roman fonts in my Font Book. Turns out they were removed from Font1, Font2 and Font3, so good thing I have a backup.
1) Opened up Excel. It did its font menu optimization thing and sure enough, I couldn't see anything.
2) I close Excel.
3) I double clicked on Times New Roman that I had in Font4. Font Book opened it and I chose to install it. It put it in my Font3 directory.
4) I opened up Excel. It did its font menu optimization thing. Suddenly I can see Times New Roman again!
5) I close Excel.
6) I double click on the Arial Font from my Font4 directory. Font Book opens it and I install it to my Font3 directory.
7) I open Excel, it does its font menu optimization thing and suddenly I can see Arial!
8) I close Excel.
Now at this point I'm wondering if my old font files got corrupted and because I was installing using the ones from my Font4 directory (which avoids the system directly) I was getting them back. So to test, I told Font Book to remove Times New Roman again, I go through the test of opening and confirming in Excel, and then I install the Times New Roman font from my desktop that I had copied out of the Font2 directory. Everything works fine in Excel. So it's not the file that was bad.
I was also wondering if I needed to remove all instances of the fonts or if just one was causing the trouble. So I go back to Font Book and remove the instance of Brush Script MT that was in my Font3 directory. When I opened Excel I still couldn't see anything.
I reinstalled the copy of Brush Script MT from the desktop and tried removing the other instance of the font, the one from the Font2 Directory. Excel still shows nothing. I then reinstall the associated font file from the desktop. Excel still doesn't like me.
Finally, I removed all instances of Brush Script MT and installed at random one of them from the desktop. Suddenly Excel likes it.
So I don't know what the problem was, maybe an associated was bad, but either way the only way I could get my fonts back was to remove all instances of the bad fonts from Font Book and then install the font again.
In between removing and installing I would go into Excel where it would refresh its Font list at startup. Not sure if this had anything to do with it either.
All my fonts now display correctly and all my powerpoint drawn images show up as well. I hope this helps someone else!

How i get by with the sleep, pause issue after 1.0.2 update

ok. i'm sure you guys are aware of the ipod sleeping/pausing issue after updating your ipod to 1.0.2. my ipod will pause whenever it is in the jensen dock station and the green battery indicator shows up. whenever i use the dock or remote to unpause the song, a few seconds later, it pauses again. so instead of using the dock or remote to play, unpause, whatever, i connect the ipod to the dock and use the wheel to navigate and 'only' use the play/pause button on the ipod itself to kick off the playing of music. if i go back to the remote, the ipod pauses. if i only use the menu and play/pause button on the wheel, my songs do not pause. it sure was nice using the remote before 1.0.2. i mean, it did come with the dock for my remoting pleasure but alas, i shall wait on the next update. hope this helps someone.

I will have to try that... I took my iPod to work today and plugged it into my JBL docking station and it was skipping. I did notice it seemed to go to sleep more often when I used the remote... There's a whole other forum on this maybe you could check out too. But it's really annoying and I hope Apple comes out with a fix soon! I will definitely try to use the iPod wheel tomorrow and not the remote.

Massive battery drain issues after the latest software update - phone hot

After the latest software update (to the NI2 version) I have massive battery drain issues. The phone also stays hot. Even when I don't actively use the phone it seems to stay "awake" according to the stats. When I disable all data (Wifi and/or 3G/4G) it's perfectly fine. Does anyone else experience the same issues or has recommendations?

Is the device trying to sync all your photos with the cloud?
This is what I would do.
Back up your photos and music onto a personal computer. Copy down important settings like for your email, and contacts you can't risk losing.. even icon placement of important apps. Diagram it out.
Then perform a Factory reset on the device. Alternatively you might find the procedure for wiping the low level cache of the device posted in other posts on the site. That might fix the problem and avoid you losing settings and content on your device.
Extremely bizarre behavior post updates are usually associated with low level cache issues that cause the OS to behave poorly. Some people have reported their phones running hot and that could mean the radio is on constantly attempting to back stuff up to the cloud our restore stuff.
Good luck.

HDMI display issues after 10.8.2

Hi,
I just updated my Macbook Pro Retina to OSX 10.8.2. I often use my hdtv as an external display, that is, until after updating. Now whenever I connect my mbp to the tv via hdmi, the screen goes black and nothing but a cursor appears. The cable is fine, tried multiple cables, multple comps, none of the system preferences have been changed. Literally happened just after restarting with the update. Help?

Progress report:
Apple called me today, had me remove my third party SwitchResX multiple monitor program and preference pane, and also an com.apple.windows.xxx plist in th system preferences, followed by a reboot with a NVPRAM reset.
Neither of these solved the problem or changed it in any way.
They then had me redo the capture pocess while the HDMI cable was plugged in, send another 10 megs worth of data to them, and they have sent the new data back to engineering.
By the way, mjeick, besides the 10.8.2 upgrade did you also do the firmware upgrade? My suspicion is that the firmware is the source of the problem, and that Apple will have to do a new firmware update. If you didn't do the firmware update and still have the problem, I should let Apple know that.
Apple seems very interested and concerned about this. My rep, who is a high level guy, said he hadn't seen the engineering people get back to him this fast (less than one day) in a while.

Satellite 100-192: Issues after the latest MS update...

Satellite 100-192.
After the latest MS update I first had the problem with the Realtek sound card driver. I solved it by applying the patch MS provided.
Now the problem is that the disc cleanup utility does not launch. Anybody any idea?

I just found out that my disc cleanup utility would not work because of a free program called Photo Toolkit. Although it is a nice little program to quickly edit photos, apparently it causes such problems when it is loaded.
