Emac went to 9.2.2 now screen is tiny

Aloha--
I initialized over osx and installed 9.2.2 (for necessary legacy software not compat with 9 running in x)...OS 9 runs fine but now the visible screen in limited to a small box in the middle of the display.
The monitors control panel does not let me change the resolution or screen size.
I used an emac os9 install disc.
Any Ideas?
Thanks.

I am having the same issue with my church's eMac used by the youth group there. A youth group member downloaded and updated the software a day or so ago, then today, while attempting to use iMovie (which wouldn't export back out to the camera... another new issue we didn't have before--but that's for a different discussion board) the display suddenly shrunk down and is now centered on the screen.
When I restart the machine, it starts out alright, but then when it goes the blue startup screen from the grey screen, the display shrinks right down again. I tried to zap the pram and that didn't work.
System prefs indicates that the setting is 1024X768, but it obviously isn't and iMovie won't even open saying the screen size is incorrect. When I set the screen resolution to 800X600, the display again fills the entire screen. When I boot from the OSX CD, everything is fine.
Any suggestions?

  • While trying to restore os x and erase content, some problem about voice software came up and the computer asked me to restart and try again by clicking restart button. When I did this, the machine went to a gray start up screen and will not progress.

    While trying to restore os x and erase content on my MacBook pro, some problem about voice software came up and the computer asked me to restart and try again by clicking restart button. When I did this, the machine went to a gray start up screen with an apple and will not progress. I've waited more than 30 minutes and tried restarting again by holding the power button. Also, restore cd 1 will not eject so the computer will no longer move past the gray screen with spinning circle. Restore CDs had never beeused and were still in packaging in the original box. Ran hardware test just to check, and it came back as normal. Now what? I live nowhere near a genius bar :(

    computer asked me to restart and try again by clicking restart button.
    That's called a kernel panic...
    Since the install disc won't eject, try starting up while holding down the C key. If the Mac won't boot while holding down the C key, try ejecting disc by either holding down the mouse while starting up or holding down the Eject key while starting up.
    Try booting from your install disc so you can run Disk Utility in case the startup disk needs repairing.
    Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
    (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first from the installer menu)
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your startup disk and click Restart
    While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. Make sure there is always 15% free space.

  • Have Macbook Pro & 4th gen iPod Touch. Downloaded & installed iOS 4.3.2 yesterday. Upgrade went without a hitch, but now iTunes on My Macbook Pro will not open. I get an error that says "iTunes" Data too new to be used with this version of iTunes.

    Have a Macbook Pro and a 4th gen iPod Touch. Downloaded and install iOS 4.3.2 yesterday. Upgrade went without a hitch, but now iTunes on My Macbook Pro will not open. I get an error that says --The file "iTunes Library" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes--. I am running iTunes 10.1.  I searched for Updates to my MacBook Pro (running 10.6.7), but comes back saying no updates available. WHAT IS GOING ON??

    Is your computer still authorized in the Store menu in iTunes?
    iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
    When I changed to my new MacBookPro I had to authorize it although I used TimeMachine to transfer my settings and data.
    Did you try to deselect Wi-Fi syncing and enable it again after that?

    Did you already transfer your purchases and manually started a backup?

    I have tried a few different things...authorizing, deauthorizing the Lenovo, turning off sharing, turning off itunes match....I'm stumped

  • IPods screen went black but assisted touch on screen still works?

    IPods screen went black but assisted touch on screen still works?  What's would be wrong?? I have dropped it and the lower volume button went partly in side the IPod (thats why i had the assisted touch on) and its been working very slowly fore the last week or so. but other then that it was fine.

    With the information given, If the screen is completely black even after the reset, it's sounds as a hardware issue
    Could be : The battery
                    The charger
                   The phone itself
    You can narrow these down one by one preferably.
    -If you have an extra battery, test it.
    -Try another charging cable or another outlet
    If neither of those affect it, you can also wipe the phone, but that's pretty much the last last step you should do since it erases everything.  Then restoring it. Time varies.
    If you are still having trouble, contacting your carrier, the closest Apple Store, or the technical support line for Apple.

  • I dropped my ipad 2 and now screen is green

    I dropped my ipad 2 and now screen is green.  ipad 2 Wi-Fi 16GB.

    I dropped my iPad today and immediately the screen was completely distorted.  Colors changed, images fuzzy, slow as can be, very hard to turn off or turn on.  I googled my problem and came to the https://discussions.apple.com site to read what I should do.  Not surprisingly, other people had this same problem.  What is INCREDIBLE is the way they suggested to resolve it.  I was hesitant at first but since SEVERAL people all said that it worked, I figured to give it a try.  A few people suggested SLAPPING THE BACK OF THE IPAD, NOT GENTLY, BUT FIRMLY.   A few good slaps and it looked a bit better.  Then my husband decided to DROP THE IPAD FROM ABOUT 2 FEET IN THE AIR ONTO THE CARPET, in a totally horizontal position.  THE SCREEN IS NOW PERFECT!! 
    For the last 2 or three weeks, the iPad has been very slow to load my apps, turning on and shutting down.  AS SOON AS I DROPPED THE IPAD, as described above, THE IPAD IS FAST, FAST, FAST. 
    I know, it sounds ridiculous that this should work, but it did.  I am certain that an Apple techie would never suggest this as a solution, but I swear to you, this has worked. 

  • My first gen Ipod went in the wash and now I cannot get wifi on it.

    Well my first generation ipod touch accidently went in the wash, and now when its working again I cannot get any wifi on it. I have tried reset the network settings and the ipod my still no luck.

    Maybe:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Otherwise:
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
      Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar                              
    I would say it is not worth getting it fixed

    This resolved my issue.
      Thank you for the suggestion. This worked for me. No more trust this computer messages and itunes now recognizes my ios7 iphone.
    Reinstalling the usb driver in win7 by going to device mgr/ portable devices and then directing the computer to search the apple folder ...
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. did the trick.

    Installed Yosemite 10.9.5 and now screen is frozen.  Cannot restart or shut down.  Have done Repair Permissions but still not working.

    Hold the power key for 10+ seconds.
    Then see if you can boot into the recover partition to repair the disk or try a reinstall.

  • I was in the process of jailbreaking and updating my ipod and when i was updating it,it went into recovery mode and now i cant get it out of recovery mode so what can i do??

    i was in the process of jailbreaking and updating my ipod and when i was updating it,it went into recovery mode and now i cant get it out of recovery mode so what can i do??

    Go elsewhere:
    Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.

  • I can't get my Mac to turn on? Our power went out and it is now unresponsive.

    I can't get my Mac to turn on? Our power went out and it is now unresponsive.  I have tried the usual way to power it up but am not getting anything. Does it need to be reset? 

    Which Mac model?
    When you say not getting anything - do you mean no sounds, beeps, etc?
    It is possible that your Mac's motherboard or power supply are damaged.
