Display problems with Black & White Scans
I have recently scanned a bunch of old pictures into an iPhoto library and I'm having trouble with one batch of 12 scanned pictures which are black and white.
The photos seem to import fine and display both thumbnail and with double click can see larger version. The problem is when I hit the 'edit' button the picture is present for a second or so then disappears. From other threads I found I did make sure that the pictures are in RGB format ("generic" per Preview); even tried changing that with the tools in Preview (which when changed to iMac RGB did significantly reduce file size) and re-importing but issue persists. Tried also rebuilding the library from within iPhoto. Next I'll try re-scanning.
The same thing also happened with a single picture from 180 (color) pictures scanned from large-format film. I'm using an Epson Perfection 700 scanner, if that makes a difference, and the B&W scans were 'manual' in that I had to select part of a preview scan to scan at higher resolution. Any help appreciated!
Just an FYI / update to this unresolved issue. I tried re-scanning the pictures and the new scans behave normally. I think what happened was that I rotated the pictures to make them upright when examining the 'event' as a whole; then somehow the program lost the rotation information (though I don't remember a crash I did have a couple during the long process); so when I tried to go from thumbnail to full size to edit that information was gone and somehow defaulted to 'blank'. That's my best guess, anyway as the issue was resolved by re-scanning.

A system disc can be used for these repair options also, in your case if the DVD drive is not working you can use an external dvd drive if you have one.

Display Problem with my Mac Pro and LG Flatron Wide Monitor in Mountain Lion
After upgrading to Mountain Lion, my Mac Pro has display problems with my LG Flatron display. The image is displayed with a black bar on the right and on the bottom. And the left side of the content is not visible. I tried every resolution available in the Display System Preferences, they are different in terms of how big the black bars are, and what part is not visible, but none of them are correct. I held down the option key to try to detect displays or switch to resolutions that are not normally available. When I restart the image is lined up with the display, but if the display ever goes to sleep or gets turned off, the image reverts to being off center, and the only way I can get it back is to restart... The interesting thing is that this monitor works fine with the same machine if I reboot using BootCamp into Windows 7. The Monitor also works fine, connecting the same connector to a Mac Mini, although that mac mini is running 10.6 and not Mountain Lion. I've reset the SMC and restarted countless times, I don't see any other levers to pull or things to try...

I have a problem with black squares,rectangles, etc, in the contact list on facebook, but it is only in Firefox, I no longer know what to do? I'm using Windows 8.
'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.'' -
I have a new Windows 8 laptop. I copied all of my music onto it. I then plug in my ipod and get "there's a problem with this drive, scan and fix now". When I click scan and fix it tells me "can't perform the check because Windows can't access the disk.".
I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it - but same problem.bump, I have same issue. thanks, MM

Problems with black color creating PDF from Excel 2013
Hi
I want to create PDF from Excel 2013 using Adobe Acrobat distiller. When I do so I have problem with black which is 300 percent black instead of 100K. Problem is only with drawed lines from Excel's symbol menu (text is fine).
I use Acrobat 9 Pro and few days ago switched from Office 2000 to 2013.....and problems started.
Office 2000 and Acrobat 9 Pro worked ok and everything including drawed symbols like lines or squares were 100K black in PDF. Now in the case of Excel 2013 it is not so but when I use export function included in Excel and export file to PDF output is 100K. I am not sure if this kind of export is good for me. I use PDF's as inputs to InDesign. So I would like to have more control when create PDF from excel. But in Excel setup I can choose standard and minimum size and that is all.
I imported Adobe PDF Settings from computer where these settings worked with Excel 2010 but they do not do same job for me in combination with Excel 2013 (I have 300 black).
To explain my workflow:
I am a publisher of crossword magazine and I use Excel to write crosswords. Then I create PDF's and import them into InDesign.
Should I use internal export included in Excel 2013? Are these PDF's ok for working in InDesign and finally for print purposes?
Or If you have any suggestion how to create PDF via Adobe Acrobat distiller setup (which I prefer) please give me advice.
Thank you in advance
JurajThese are tough issues I suspect and the answer you need is probably trivial (it is finding it). I will make some suggestions, but I have no idea if any will work.
- In the printer under the Properties>Layout>Advanced>print quality, I use 300 dpi (default is 1200).
- Under the printer preferences>settings>edit the settings file, I use again 300 dpi (default is 1200 dpi).
These may not fix your issue, but migth be worth a try. You could also try using the preflight script to change to gray-scale. It may not make any changes, but again may be worth a try.
All I am trying to suggest are the things I would be looking at. Maybe they will lead you someplace. Others may be by with better suggestions in time. -
IPad displays only in black & white
My iPad 2 just started displaying only in black & white. Any ideas on how to fix? I tried holding the power and home buttons for 10 seconds to reboot, but that didn't help. Thank you for any and all ideas!
I think it all depends on how old your ipad is and what your budget is and needs are.
If yours isn';t that old and is still covered by the warranty it might be a free replacement. If it's out of warranty then the fee starts at 219 for a mini, 249 for a 2 and 299 for the newer ones....but you will get model for model...so say your iPad is an iPad 2, do you want to spend 249 for essentially a 3 year old device, or put the money towards something newer?
I think first I'd make an appointment at your local apple store and have them work on it/diagnose it and then go from there. Just make sure you make an appointment before you do so you don't waste time waiting.

Display problems with Kwin on intel hardware

Out of Frequency Problem with Apple Multiple Scan 720 Display and Mac mini
If a resolution with a horizontal and/or vertical frequency not compatible with your display, in this case an Apple Multiple Scan 720 Display, is selected in the Display preference pane of the Mac OS X 10.4.10 system running on a Mac mini (Early '06), you will recieve a message on your screen about being "out of frequency" and the power management feature will shut down and restart your display repeatedly. The following solution should restore your display to proper function. It may apply to other displays and Macintoshes running Mac OS X, but it has only been tested specially on this setup.
1. Shut down the Mac mini with the power button (press and hold for 5 seconds)
2. Start the computer up with the Mac mini Mac OS X Install Disc 1 (press the power button, insert the disc, hold the C key down until the progress bar starts up)
3. Click on the language, then select Utilities > Terminal...
4. Type "cd /" and return
5. Type "cd Volumes" and return
6. Type "cd your hard drive name" and return (you need to enclose the hard drive name in double quotes if more than one word)
7. Type "cd Library" and return
8. Type "cd Preferences" and return
9. Type "rm com.apple.windowserver.plist" and return
10. Type "exit" and return
11. Quit Terminal
12. Select Utilities > Startup Disc...
13. Select the OS on the hard drive and click on Restart button, holding down the Shift key until the progress bar starts.
14. Log in to the account that had the display problem in Safe Boot mode
15. In System Preferences select Display, select a resolution with the appropriate frequency, 60 Hz should be fine, then close System Preferences
16. Restart the computer, log in to the account normally, and the display should be functioning properly.
DO NOT SELECT AN INAPPROPRIATE RESOLUTION/FREQUENCY FOR YOUR DISPLAY IN THE DISPLAY PREFERENCE PANE! BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID!

Mac mini (Early '06) Mac OS X (10.4.10) Apple Multiple Scan 720 DisplayJust a correction and an elaboration:
It should be Startup Disk... with a k, not a c.
Both the resolution and the frequency must be appropriate for your display to work properly. Check your documentation or the manual information available on your display for the appropriate resolutions/frequencies. Evidently the Apple Multiple Scan 720 Display is considered so old that no allowance was made for it in the Display preference pane of Mac OS X 10.4.10.

Problems with black fills in live trace(d) eps images in Word and certain printers
Hi folks, PLEASE help me with this if you know a possible solution. I regularly run Live Trace in Illustrator CS3 on my grayscale bmp or tiff scanned images, save them as an eps, then folks in other departments insert them into Microsoft Word pages. Sometimes these images display in Word with unintended black fills, and some printers print them out with the same corrupted appearance, yet some other printers print them fine (even if the display in Word shows them with the unintended black fills). I THINK this might be a postscript issue (?). I don't have the option of telling everyone to change from Word to InDesign (which would absolutely solve the problem immediately). Is there something I can set while performing Live Trace? They really need the eps files, so I don't have the option of saving them as another format. HELP! Thanks...
I use Mac at home and love it. At work, we use PC platform. I can't save as a pdf because they need to stay vector graphics. he departments want us to save the eps in version 8 because they're STILL using Windows 2003 (ugh). I keep thinking there must be something I can do while in Live Trace because we've never noticed any inintended black fills in graphics not created using Live Trace. Somehow, Word and some printers are not interpreting some postscript language correctly. InDesign has zero issues with it. Some printers have no problem with it, so I assume they are postscript printers. There's got to be a way I can still save as an eps but without the postscript conflict (IF that's what it is).

External display problems with snow leopard
I just upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard on my Macbook and it's created lots of problems with my LCD external display:
- The display won't work at its native resolution (1680x1050) - it will flash up an image for 1/10 of second and then go black. I can only get it to work at a lower resolution, which looks AWFUL.
- If I try to start up my Macbook with the lid closed and the display connected, the display won't work at all (it jams on the start up screen). It only works if I keep both of them running
I never had these problems when using Leopard. I've searched lots of forums and found that many people are having similar problems with external displays. Apple still haven't fixed the bug after repeated efforts from people to get if fixed.
Here are some threads (now closed) on this if you're looking for solutions:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2132912&tstart=0
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2136455&tstart=1
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2132837&tstart=0
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10084332
Common suggested fixes are:
- Force OS X to use LCD font smoothing (does not work for me)
- Clear the PRAM on start-up (does not work for me)
- Delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist (does not work)
- Change energy management setting to high performance (only works on graphics cards in Macbook 15" and 17").
From reading these forums it appears that this is a well-know bug. Has anyone else got any suggestions to fix this? And why hasn't Apple fixed this yet after so many people bringing it to their attention? It's clearly a bug that wasn't in Leopard.I'M FED UP WITH APPLE! They've always been a little shady, but the last half of 2010 took the cake!
First it was the iPhone 3g "upgrade" to IOS4 which was garbage and killed my ability to use the 3g until I figured out how to crack the software, wipe the thing clear then reinstall the original software. Next up was purchasing the iphone 4 as a Christmas gift for someone running tiger on their mac, only to find out that the iphone 4 doesn't work on tiger when they tried to sync their contacts - and then having to rush out and purchase snow leopard so that they could enjoy my gift. Then I install Snow Leopard (note - I purchased the family pack) onto my own leopard-running(10.5.+) powerbook only to have the external LCD display I've been using for years suddenly stop working.
Oh, okay, to be fair, it works IF I RESIGN MYSELF TO SET it to "mirror image" (which defeats the purpose of having multiple displays) and drop the resolution down to a pathetic, unsharp, nearly distored setting that is almost painful to look at knowing that this monitor was just A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO showing me crystal clear images.
Then I exhaust myself trying to find a fix only to discover that APPLE in their infinite brilliance (AKA - their torture of loyal customers) knows of the issue - worked it out - then created an update that created the issue all over again. I'm so done! No more macs. I'm going back to the evil land of PCs. At least there, you know you're getting crap, it doesn't sneak up on you after getting you to trust it time and time again. -
Tty display problems with nvidia and uvesafb
I'm trying to get my console to display correctly at 1080p; trying to do so through GRUB was always an absolute nightmare.
The console displays fine with nouveau, but nouveau causes the infamous pink line bug, which is simply too irritating to ignore; nouveau is not an option.
In the past, my console has run at low res and incorrect scale with nvidia, but I've ignored the problem since I prefer to use a virtual terminal in X.
Now, if possible, I need to use the actual console for the purposes of module development.
I installed v86d and uvesafb and configured the console for 1920x1080 and 32 bit depth.
The console is displaying with the correct resolution now, but is surrounded by a black border, making the font distorted and extremely difficult to read.
How can I get my console to scale correctly to fullscreen? Any ideas at all. I found nothing in the forums or wiki, and I'm out.
I'm fairly certain there are no vga or video settings in GRUB that are interfering.Output of "pacman -Qi nvidia"

Also, it might help to describe the behaviour more specifically / more in depth...
The rendered part of the console occupies the same space as the GRUB boot menu.
I installed and configured virtualbox a few weeks previously.
I ran "sudo depmod -a" as the wiki / forums indicated it could remedy problems with virtual machines failing to start.
It did fix the virtualbox problem; after reboot, suddenly lightdm *also* initally occupied the same window space as grub.
That was new behaviour. When I logged in to xmonad, the desktop displayed similarly to GRUB.
I hadn't tried fixing it; logging in with root followed by "ps -e | grep X" and "kill -9 <Xpid>" caused X as a whole to start behaving and scaling normally.
I haven't rebooted until attempting to rectify the issue with my console.
The oddity with scaling in lightdm and xmonad still shows up after reboot and is still reparable by killing X.
Killing X doesn't - obviously - have any effect on console scale.

Weird display problem with iMac 24"
Hi guys, I have a very weird problem with my 24" iMac. For some reason it seems that after approx. 10 minutes using the Mac, whenever I keep a window on top of another window and then I minimize it, it keeps there like a ghost for another 5-10 seconds until it fades away slowly slowly.
Sometimes it's hard to see it however it's very evident when using a white window (such as Safari) on a dark background (not black).
I'm attaching an image split into 2 parts, the 2nd part is shot exactly after I minimised the browser. It clearly shows a faded ghost image on the grey Photoshop canvas.
Here's the pic:

Has anyone ever experienced a problem similar to mine? or am I getting paranoid?
By the way, I bought this Mac, 5 months ago and I don't know whether this problem has been there from the beginning but I only noticed recently while cropping in Photoshop and still seeing the parts I removed away very faded.den.thed it's not that I took it the wrong way or anything but shouldn't I be doing whatever I like with my iMac?
For the record that is a dark grey Photoshop canvas, which just happens to show the problem much more evidently.
The problem is that it happens on any background (even desktop) with any window, even Adium etc. Their ghost just stays there for a while... I use the iMac for design purposes and it's very annoying especially when cropping a picture and what I just cut out stays there very faded...
