Display not working correctly... cant figure it out.

Hello all,
I have a MacBook Pro and for some reason today when I reset my computer and it turned back on the display was stretched about 10px on each side. So when I move my mouse around my screen is moving around now too. Very annoying. I had an external 20" connected to the display and was using it as an extention. When I have it plugged in now I see the 10px from my main display on the external. I have included some pictures because as we know pictures are worth 1000 words. I have tried reseting the CPU several times with and with out the external plugged in. I also tried reseting the display. Another side note on this; I have these random places on my screen that are about dime size that I can tell are fuzzy, the sharpness of the fonts goes away.
Notice the edges, they are darker than the rest... this is the float area

Notice the top is cut off a little

Anyone have any ideas of what this is or how I could better explain this problem to the Mac people. Im at a loss of words for what this problem is.
Thanks
Mark

Ok one of those days. Some how I had zoomed in a little. I use the zoom function all the time for videos and such, but I dont remember ever initiating it. This would explain the floating on my mouse and the fuzzyness of the fonts.
LOL... A little more coffe and I will be fine.

After upgrade to Yosemity my FCPX app will not work. Cant figure out how to upgrade it for Yosemity.

After upgrading my Mac Pro laptop to Yosemity I cannot open FCPX. Messages says upgrade under Apple software upgrades but computer says no upgrades are avaiable.

There is no "Software Update" option with OS X Yosemite. It has been changed to "App Store," and updates are in the App Store.
It sounds like there's something odd with your install of FCP X. You can always remove it and reinstall it; you shouldn't lose any of your projects or media (though I'd recommend you have a backup). The easiest way to remove it is to activate LaunchPad and then find FCP X and click and hold on the icon. Once it starts to jiggle, just click the "X" in the upper left corner to remove it, like you would on iOS. Once it's uninstalled, try installing again from the App Store.

Firefox window display not working correctly?

Hi
A problem recently (in the past week or so) has arisen with my Firefox.
I had been using the latest Beta however have now rolled back to version 6.0.2 and am still experiencing this problem.
When I open a window and am browsing, if i 'restore down' the window, the top of the Firefox bar goes clear and I can no longer use the minimize or close buttons. On maximizing the window, none of the buttons (close, minimize etc) work either, and i can only maximize by double clicking where the bar would be...
I have taken a screen shot but don't think i can post it on here.. but can email it if required.
Even as I type this, I can see a folder on my desktop (while the window is maximized)... behind where the very top bar of the window should be... if that makes sense...
Is anyone else having this problem? Or does anyone have a solution?
Please help... it's annoying enough to not use Firefox any more if it can't be fixed...

OK, thanks You are really helpful on this forum!
Well, I can't say much before these cables arrive, so I will have to wait .... today, I dissasembled the iBook - but I stopped after I separated the display from the bottom part - and the cables seemed OK, but one cannot say just from looking ... well thanks anyway will try what can I do
(btw ... I dont know why people want cheap notebook like EEE that doesn't do anything useful, when buying old notebook is much better... but it's too far from the subject, isn't it)

Re: x505 - "turn off the display" not working correctly

To make a long story short, I was having a boatload of problems with my Toshiba Qosmio X505. I spoke to tech support and they had me reinstall the OS and completely wipe the computer. All has been well for days until today!
For some reason every time my screen turns off (for power saving), I can't get my computer to respond. I don't know if it's sleeping, going into hibernation mode, or even the difference between any of that stuff but when I press buttons, move the mouse/touch pad, try the media keys, the power button, nothing makes my computer come back. I have to hold the power button and completely restard the computer to get back on again.
Why is this happening? It was working fine for days, but I think it has something to do with the last NVIDIA driver update I downloaded. That's the main change I've made to the computer yesterday and now it seems to be doing it. Does anyone have any recommendations? How can I make my computer quit doing this? I have all my black screen options off for now but that doesn't seem like a good solution for this problem it used to work fine.

hi, yes my new Qosmio X500/02G is the same when i set power options so my screen turn off after 10 minutes it will not respond with mouse or keyboard like before.
i bought this laptop as 1 year old, and it had a fresh recovery done when i got it, so only had the nvidia graphic driver from 1 year ago (version 189.00) and the screen will recover ok.
i then install the new 270.00 nvidia driver and now the screen wont recover unless i do a complete shutdown using a hard press of the power button.
looks like i will uninstall this new driver back to old ones.
also i notice when this new driver is installed, the driver will scrash for a few seconds where the screen goes black, and comes back on with message to say the "graphic driver stopped responding and has now recovered" so maybe this is also the reason.
cheers
*EDIT: ok i just revert my laptop back to the original toshiba nvidia drivers and all is ok now, no problem with drivers or wake up the screen.*

Safari hierarchical menus not working correctly

Hello all,
I'm having a problem with Safari's hierarchical menus not working correctly. They pop out in odd positions, and--worst of all--the big ones (for folders that contain lots of bookmarks) pop out right on top of the main bookmarks menu, making it all but impossible to navigate that main menu. I've tried all the usual tricks: log out/restart the system, restart Safari, reset Safari, boot in safe boot mode, repair permissions, yank Safari's bookmarks prefs file, even reinstall Safari, and nothing worked. I've also noticed the same behavior in Camino. My system hierarchical menus work fine, though, so I'm thinking I have a corrupt prefs file somewhere. I'm using Safari 4.04 with no extra plugins beyond what come with it on 10.5.8. Does anyone know what's going on and how to fix this?

AFAIK, the submenu will pop on either side, depending on available space and if there are further subfolders, allowing them to continue in the same direction.
Since the new account doesn't exhibit the issue, there are two ways to attack the problem. One is to log into your new account, make a list of the preference files (plists) located in /username/Library/Preferences/, including any in the ByHost subfolder, log back into the original account, move everything not on that list into a newly created folder on the Desktop, log out and back in, and see if the problem goes away. If so, you can copy the ones in the Desktop folder (one at time) back into /Preferences/, restart, and see if the problem returns. If so, you've identified the corrupt/conflicting one. Continue with all of them until isolating the bad ones. That'll save you the trouble of resetting preferences.
The second way is much more detailed and I'll not burden you with the steps unless the above doesn't fix the issue.

Key Figure calculation in Abap is not working correctly - Overlooping

Hi,
I wrote a logic to calculate the ratio of key figure but it is not working correctly
For example I have a requirement to split 1 Product into Several new Products and also the Net Amount will be splitted to these several new products as well. The total Amount of the new product will be equivalent to the Net Amount.
So far my Logic is splitting the product to several new products but the amount is incorrect as the calculation is over looping.
Sample
A PRODUCT has Net Amount 1000. And this product needs to be splitted into 3 new products. Each of this new product is assigned a ratio of 0.3, 0.2 and 0.7 respectively. total sum of the ratio is 1.
PRODUCT1 0.3 = 1000 * 0.3 = 300
PRODUCT2 0.2 = 1000 * 0.2 = 200
PRODUCT3 0.7 = 1000 * 0.7 = 700
The total amount of this new products is 1000.
Now my logic is working this way.
PRODUCT1 0.3 = 1000 * 0.3 = 300
PRODUCT2 0.2 = 1000 * 0.2 * 0.3 = 60
PRODUCT3 0.7 = 1000 * 0.2 * 0.3 * 0.7 = 42
Only the PRODUCT1 is working correctly and there is overlooping for the remaining products
Logic used

Hi,
I am not really good at debugging Abap code since I am a newbie. however I have tried to add CLEAR T_DATA before the first loop.
REFRESH T_DATA.
LOOP AT DATA_PACKAGE.
ZIDX = SY-TABIX.
MOVE-CORRESPONDING DATA_PACKAGE TO T_DATA.
and before the second loop and select statement and at the end of the loop.
REFRESH T_NEWDSO.
SELECT * FROM NEWDSO INTO table T_NEWDSO WHERE PROD =
DATA_PACKAGE-PROD.
SORT T_NEWDSO BY PROD.
READ TABLE T_NEWDSO WITH KEY PROD = T_DATA-PROD.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
LOOP AT T_NEWDSO.
but then not all data are being fetched.
thanks

The calendar sync is recently not working correctly, not display "All events" but it only displays the last six months for my individual entries. My repeating entires do go back further, though. How do I fix?

I have an iPad 5.1.1. The calendar sync has started to not work correctly. I have it checked "All events," but it only displays the last two months for my individual entries. My repeating entires do go back further, though. How do I fix?

HI Jason269. Thanks for your reply, however I wrote that I already have "All events" checked. If All Events is checked and it doesn't diaplay all events, how do I fix? It seems this is a common issue, as I have read many others on here state the same problem.
I believe my problem occurred when I synced my iMac calendar to my iPad calendar using yahoo. Yesterday, I unsynced them on my iMac controls. When I checked my iPad calendar, all of my old entries reappeared - but only for five seconds and disappeared again. So, the data is saved and still there but cannot be displayed, even when I have All events checked. In fact, it only shows my individual entries for the last two months, but does show all my recurring entries. If I switched to last six months, I will see everything for the last six months. If I switch back to all events, it is only for the last two months.
As I mentioned, others on here have expressed exactly the same issue, including the two month example and having used yahoo.
For legal purposes, I need to be able to use the information from my indidual calendar entries in an upcoming court case. So I really need to fix this ASAP!

Try this - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

1st Gen iPod touch not working correctly?

I have a 1st generation 8GB iPod Touch. It's not working correctly.
My biggest problem is that, unexplaiably, certain areas of the screen don't seem to register touch anymore. There is a sort of "L" shape on the left and bottom edges of the screen that won't register touch, making it impossible to move applications to the previous page on the home screen and making it hard to use the keyboard/buttons while in portrait mode. It's extremely frustrating to try to change the volume while playing a song, as I now have to either put the iPod in sleep mode then double tap the home button or flip it to cover flow and double tap the home button to do it.
http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e140/Vipershark/IMG_0001.png
(Highlight the image to see it better.)
This is a screenshot of the working/non-working areas that I made using the Whiteboard application. The white area that you see (excluding the little half circles of black which are extended brush strokes and not actually working areas) is the area that doesn't work. I can't seem to figure out why it happened, as I've never dropped or otherwise damaged it. It just happened one day, and I don't know why.
But I can't fix it. I've tried everything. Upgrading (I'm now running iPhone OS 3.0 which still didn't fix the problem.) didn't work, restoring didn't work, deleting everything and restoring from factory settings didn't work.
I'm also having a few other problems as well, though they're not as bad. My home button seems to stop working sometimes and sometimes the entire screen witll stop registering touch until I put the iPod to sleep and turn it back on. It also seems to go a lot slower than usual.
My iPod is less than a year old. Can you help?

Vipershark,
I had a very similar problem this past weekend with my 1G 8GB iPod touch. But with me, just the left side of the screen wasn't registering my touch. I could still access the bottom section, which you cannot.
The good news for me is that I fixed it and I hope it works for you as well. What fixed it for me was resetting all my settings. To do this, go to the settings icon, then click on general, and then on the very bottom is reset. Choose "reset all settings."
Apparently this is different than a restore through iTunes, which you tried. I also tried that earlier and it did not help.
Of course, the reset solution I used relies on you being able to access all of the correct buttons, so I hope you can!
Please let us know if this works for you. If not, since it is less than a year old, it is still under warranty. Contact Apple and see what they can do.

Function keys are not working correctly

I've been looking all over the various threads and I can't find an answer that solves my problem.
Here are the details:
I bought the computer in the U.S. where I live.
I have a iMac 2.4GHz intel Core 2 Duo EMC 2133 with a 20" screen. Bought it new in February 2008.
I have Mac OS X 10.5.8 (I am waiting for my order for OS Snow Leopard to come in!!)
I have been using a wireless mouse and Keyboard (Love not having cords!)
Recently, my wireless keyboard got a short and quit working. I went down to the apple store and got a new wireless keyboard.
I had the computer with me at the genius bar so, yes, the apple employee saw exactly what I have.
I took it all home got the thing all put back together and got the new keyboard paired up and working with the computer.
Here are the problems:
Went to go use the function keys while using iTunes and found they weren't working properly. The F10, F11 and F12 do not control the volume of sound as the keyboard indicates they would, they instead activate dashboard, spaces, and application windows.
Following the advice of other threads, I looked over in the system preferences and made sure the "Use all F1, F2 etc." box was unchecked (it was unchecked), things still didn't work.
I tried the fn key but it appears to not work at all it has no effect on the functioning of the function keys.
I went under keyboard shortcuts in system preferences and found the F10, F11 and F12 keys, it confirms that those keys control spaces, dashboard and application windows as they are performing but shows no options to either reassign to volume control (as marked on the keyboard) or make the fn key work.
I've gone back and forth trying various combinations of checked and unchecked boxes to see if anything would work, so far I've come up with nothing.
A couple more important or interesting facts:
Yes I have turned off and taken the batteries out of the old keyboard. My bluetooth connection currently shows it as disconnected.
I have restarted the computer.
One thing I find odd; when I go under preferences and go to Keyboard and Mouse when I go under the section "Bluetooth" it shows Bluetooth mouse with the name of the mouse and the battery level. BUT nothing is showing up under bluetooth Keyboard, I can't figure out how to change this and don't know if it is contributing to the problem.
When I go under the bluetooth logo on the top bar I find the mouse and both keyboards referenced, the old keyboard is shown as disconnected and the other two are connected. I have tried to update the device's name but it doesn't seem to let me.
I have double clicked on the device under bluetooth and it shows the new keyboard as discoverable, paired and connected. Hence, I am using the new keyboard to write this inquiry.
Please, any assistance would be of great help. I have tried to be thorough in order help narrow the possible problem. Thanks!!

Just thought I'd let you know. Our suspicions were correct, it was the OS. After I installed Snow Leopard (10.6.8) all the problems were corrected. I also updated the RAM from 1 gb to 6 gb. The mac is working all around better. Sorry it took so long to get back to everyone. My superdrive had pooped out. Rather than replace it I got an external drive from OWC connected with firewire 800. So far everything is running very well, as far as I can tell this external drive is better than the original superdrive. My superdrive has always acted funny, infact I returned the first mac I got after a week because its superdrive was also malfunctioning. Anyway, all that to say everything seems to be fully functioning again.

Sound blaster not working correctly?

Sound blaster not working correctly #I have a 64 bit, windows vista system.
A Logitech Z-5500 Digital speaker system (one woofer, center speaker, left, right, rear right, left rear speakers, and a seperate control head).
I have an X-fi gamer sound card.
I recently formatted my hard dri've and reinstalled everything. Trying to make everything happy again. Here is my problem:
When I use the Creative Console Launcher (CCL), my front right speaker tests fine. My front left speaker comes out of the woofer. And no other speakers will test at all. It does this in all modes (2., 4., 5. and 7.).
When I play some music, it is coming out of all of the speakers. But it won't test properly in the CCL. So, do I have an issue, does what the CCL is doing not matter, or something else In some games, hearing what direction stuff is coming from matters, so if it is sending sounds to the wrong speakers, then I need to figure out a fix.....hence my post.
Thanks for any help you can give, Robert

Well, as the official documatation states, the Archlinux is for more or less advanced users, and if you're not one, we will make you one
First of all, if you compiled your sound as modules, try putting this in your rc.local:
stat_busy "Activating Sound"
/sbin/modprobe your_sound_module
/sbin/modprobe other_sound_module
/sbin/modprobe yet_other_sound_module
stat_done
Change your_sound_module stuff to your module names as you configured in the kernel, of course.
Second: in order to have two or more sound apps working at the same time, you need some kind of sound server. For default one (esd), uncomment esd in /etc/rc.local (remove ! before it) . After that, you'll have to configure your sound apps to use esd. I know that this is extremely easy with xmms and xine, dunno about others. I do not use esd, because my favorite games (quake3 and half-life) require direct access to /dev/dsp.
And remember: nobody blames for asking 8)

Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in preview.

Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in encore preview. This only happens for a Blu ray project. When a user presses the menu button it should go to the previous menu they were on but it goes to the main menu. When they press the title button they should go to the main menu but it doesn't do anything. My DVD projects work as expected.I've tried creating a new "test" project with different footage and still get the same undesirable results.
Overrides grayed out and set to "not set" for timelines and menus.Project settings and build are set to blu ray. Also I've noticed when I preview a Bluray project the preview window shows a red colored disc next to the Title button when viewing the timelines and green when playing the menus but not so for a DVD project it displays red if motion menus and or timelines are not rendered/encoded. I'm not using motion menus and all the media is encoded according to the project specs.
I've searched this forum but couldn't find the answer. Any help or redirects to a solution would be appreciated. Working with CS5. Thanks.

I found out on my Samsung Blu ray player the remote has a tools button on it that brings up audio, angle, chapter selection etc.and also title selection which is actually the menus and the timelines unfortunately. It's not as easy or direct as last menu selected but it's a workaround at least. I also plan on using a pop up menu. I'll let you know.

Display not working correctly... cant figure it out.
