Fix for Samsung Monitor not working after 10.6 install

This quick fix solution worked for me. Hope it works for you:
I have an 15inch MacBook Pro that I've just installed Snow Leopard 10.6.3 on.
Prior to this install, I've had it hooked up to my Samsung SyncMaster 2243 via an Apple MDP/VGA adapter and a third party VGA cable. It has been flashing on and off a black screen every now and then for the past 2 years and I googled that it was just a crappy communication between the MBP and the Samsung... but now since installing 10.6.3, the Samsung display just flashes the desktop for a second then turns black for good - occationally flashing analogue/digtal prompt display. Tried everything for hours. Nothing worked, thought I was gonna have to buy a new all Apple VGA lead then came across this solution. Tried it and it worked IMMEDIATLY!!! And the monitor doesn't flash black anymore AT ALL!
WHAT TO DO TO FIX:
Go to => System Preferences => Energy Saver => change graphic settings to Higher Performace.
Cheers!!

I figured it out. NVIDIA has an update specifically for 10.6.8 and several of their video GPU's. go HERE to download the driver. It also took away the slow response and flicker I was experiencing.
Here is the update info:
CUDA Application Support:
In order to run Mac OS X Applications that leverage the CUDA architecture of the Quadro 4000 for Mac product, users will need to download and install the CUDA 4.x driver for Mac located here.
New in Release 256.02.25f01:
This driver update is required if upgrading to the latest Mac OS X v10.6.8.
Contains performance improvements for a wide range of applications
Contains fixes for several corruption and crash bugs, including issues with Autodesk Mudbox, and World of Warcraft.
Contains support for display rotation.
Adds Driver Archive/Restore Functionality.

HP Photosmart C6300 printer/scanner not working after Snow Leopard install

HP Photosmart C6300 printer/scanner not working after Snow Leopard install
Reinstalling etc does not work - does anyone else have the same problem or a clue as to how to fix this?

Keith,
I got a C6280 and the scanner does not work anymore. I am for 6 days in contact with HP. The last printer driver install form the apple web site does not open the image of HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.dmg because of an invalid checksum. The skipping of the validation gives and error in the install.

HT3917 My apple wireless keyboard is not working after new batteries installed

My apple wireless keyboard is not working after new batteries installed.

Do you get a steady green light to say there is a connection. If not, are the batteries the right way round. Do you have a monitor to tell the batteries strength. Is there a reading. Are the batteries good quality ones, Duracell, Energiser or Apple rechargeables.

HT204003 What can I do if the "date" fix for passbook is not working? Are there any other solutions?

I have tried the "date" fix but it does not work for me. Does anyone have any other solution for the passbook problem?

DVD drives read the bottom of the disk, not the top. Smooth out the paper & try again.

Touchsmart 320-1030 Touchscreen is not working after OS re-install

HDD crashed, and was replaced with new, re-installed system from factory recovery CDs, now touch screen does not work. I have re-installed the drivers to no avail. system Properties says under Pen and Touch: No Pen or Touch Input is available for this Display. It used to work before the hard drive crashed.

External monitor not working after ML upgrade

I have a late 2008 Unibody Macbook and normally use it in clamshell mode with a Samsung 2043NW monitor if I'm in the office. Previously working fine in 10.5.8 through mini display port adapter. Upgraded via fresh install of 10.6.8 to ML, and the monitor flickered on occasionally but otherwise would not work - when it did display it showed the same resolution as the macbook screen i.e. 1280 X 800 instead of 1680 X 1050.
There's a thread here related to this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2387462?start=15&tstart=0 but this software was not the answer. I can now view the screen, but it is still being sent a resolution of 1280X800, rather than 1680X1050 (i.e. a fuzzy mess). It also will not work in clamshell mode at all, and just goes to sleep when the case is shut.
Anyone have a solution for this, or have I been 'obsolesced'? Does anyone have a unibody Macbook that DOES work with an external monitor?

OK, now here's an interesting thing - the macbook has begun to work in clamshell mode. This is REALLY weird. Tried again this morning in the hope of getting back the monitor control icon in the toolbar and it booted straight into clamshell mode with the lid shut.
When I first had this running 10.5 it would only work in clamshell mode if you pressed the power button and immediately closed the lid before the screen lit up grey. More recently it has been perfectly happy to enter clamshell mode after a period of use normally, just plugging in the monitor and shutting the lid. It would be nice if this behaviour were to start again soon.

3 DVI monitor not working after upgrade

I have three monitors connected to my new Mac pro via Active Minidisplay port to DVI adapters. They are all Dell 24" (1 2407,and 2 2405) they worked fine on 10.9.2 but after the upgrade to 10.9.3 only two monitors will work now. Verfiied that I was following Apple's document on connecting the three monitors. If I Disconnect one of the two working monitor the previous blank one would automatically go active.

This issue is caused by a bug in OS X 10.9.3. The following steps have been reported to resolve it in some cases (not all.) If none of them works for you, the only other option is to revert to 10.9.2, which can be done by restoring a pre-update backup. You may prefer to wait for Apple to release another update, but I don't know when that will happen.
1. Reset the System Management Controller.
2. Reset the PRAM.
3. Install the Combo updater.

Secondary monitor does not work after OS X install

My secondary monitor does not work well after OS X install. The image on my secondary monitor is different even the screen svaer image is different and the mouse can not be seen.

Try the easy thing first - NVRAM reset:
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
If that does not work, post back with more info, including the version of Mac OS you are running. How is the external monitor connected, did it ever work, and from what OS X to what was the "OS X install" in your title?

Share option for email does not work after Yosemite upgrade.

Hi,
Does anybody know why the share option, "Share via email" does not work anymore after Yosemite upgrade? I love this feature. It's just quick and easy.
Rod.

On Yosemite, Pages '09 v4.3 no longer recognizes the Share > Send Via Email categories. You will have to export and manually drag/drop/attach documents to Mail. There is no fix.

Mac Mini Wake for Network Access Not working after upgrade

After upgrading to the latest OS (10.8) the WOL fuction is not work. This used to work before the release. i could see the Mac mini on my mac book pro even when it was asleep. Once I click on it under the shared resources area I could see the Mac wake up. Now as soon as it goes to sleep it drops from my mac book pro. I am connected via WIFI but also tried via LAN. Same result. Any ideas? Seems to be a bug as I google this issue it appears to be impacting many people.

Same issue here after updating my iMac to OS X 10.8. I can't use Logmein, wireless syncing to iTunes from my iOS devices, or my Logitech Server software for my Logitech Radio. Once the computer goes to sleep, it is invisible to the rest of the network. This all worked fine on 10.4-10.7. I have double-checked that Wake on Network Activity is turned on. I have disabled all networking interfaces except Ethernet. Nothing seems to help.

External Monitor Not Working after 10.9.3

I have two Macs which are not working with an external monitor anymore through the thunerbolt port. I have tried different types of connections (HDMI and DVI) and two different external monitors in an attempt to determine the issue. The only common denominator to the issue is the update to 10.9.3 OS X. I have also reset PRAM and changed between mirroring and non mirroring to no avail.
Mac #1:
MacBook Pro8,1
Intel Core i5
2.4ghz
Intel HD Graphics 3000 512MG
External Monitor: Resolution 1920X1080 @60hz
32 Bit Color (ARGB8888)
Main Display: Yes
Mirror: Off
Online: Yes
Rotatino: Supported
Mac#2:
MacBookAir6,2
Intel Core i5
1.3ghz
Intel HD Graphics 5000
External Monitor: No information as it's not connected at this time.

Well low and behold I tried clearing PRAM again and I reset my monitor to factory defaults. Reconnected my monitor and the thing works now. Very strange but I'm Happy that it's working again. *WHEW*

Keyboard and Touch-Pad Not Working After Having to Install New Hard Drive

I had to install a new hard drive in my HP Pavillion DV9700t that has Vista Home Premium 64-bit. After going through the recovery process with backup disk the built in keyboard and touch-pad do not work. During the installation, an error message came up saying something along the lines of "the drivers are not supported by this verison of windows because they are unsigned." The drivers that had that error were "hpqkbfiltr keyboard filter driver," "HP remote control HID Device," and "hpqkdfilter driver." I tried to update the drivers for the keyboard from the hp website, but the keyboard and touch-pad still do not work.
My question is, where do I find the digitally signed drivers for the keyboard and touch-pad that Vista won't flag and disable?
Help please!

Sparkles,
Thanks for the suggestions.
When dealing with MS Fix It, I was choosing run. Upon further investigation on that site, there really isn't a scan that applies to my issue anyways I tried the .NET Framework repair tool, and that seemed to work. It told me to try re-running what I was having issues with, so I tried running the Windows PowerShell again, but again was faced with the following message "windows update standalone installer encountered an error: 0xc8000247." I went back to the .NET screen and hit "Next" because it didn't work, and that responded by saying they were going to submit logs to Microsoft. I won't hold my breath on that one.
I'm to the point where I honestly don't care anymore. I have no idea what to do, because doing a clean install with the discs HP sent me isn't going to help because they are just recovery discs, and not an actual Windows disk. This is the second hard drive I have had to put into my laptop and use those recovery disks on in the last 3-years. The built-in keyboard hasn't worked during that time frame on either hard drive. I don't think the recovery disks I was sent install properly. Not sure where to go from here. I spent way too much money on this laptop years ago having it custom built to handle all of my drafting programs, so I don't want to just kick it to the curb. I was looking into the possibility of just replacing it, but I cannot stand the Windows 8 interface.
I guess I should have fixed the issue with the keyboard on this hard drive before loading all of my programs. Between the recovery disk install, formatting of the hard drive, and installing all of my programs it took well over 12 hours. Not really looking forward ot that again Then there's shockwave and flash and all of the other goodies that my recovery disks won't restore anyways.
Sorry if this seems like a negative post, but I'm just tired of trying to no avail. Maybe I should just take it somewhere to get it looked at, but I can't see them being successful if the recovery disks won't help anyways.
Thanks for you help,
MadBuch

Thunderbolt is not working after Mountain Lion installed

I'm putting this discussion again because the problem didn't solve like I thought !
As you can see from the title that I have a problem already after I installed the new OS X Mountain Lion. I got my thunderbolt to Hdmi adabtor connected to an LCD TV and it was working great with snow lepord. But after the I installed Mountain Lion. it won't even recognize that there is something connected and I don't see the options in my System Prefrences> Diplays like before.
I already run software update and it's all up to date and also done a PRAM reset and nothing changed.
It only ok for a couple of min. if I restarted it and without the sound working from the LCD TV.
Please I need help here.

Well I would have hit repair. This might be stemming from a deeper issue with the installation. I've never seen that dialogue box before, and if ignoring it and booting normally worked for you then I say you did the right thing.
however
I would, go to disk utility and then select your boot drive and verify and repair disks and permissions.
if anything else WEIRD should occur, you may want to go to the recovery partition of ML (cmd+R while hearing the boot chime) and reinstalling ML. That dialogue box you mentioned is strange and should be noted. A reinstall will probably fix whatever issue comes up.
