Flickring screen in Full mode my mac jammed up!

I have been an ardent user of aperture for years now and got used to the great workflow. Ever since version 1 I have been enjoying working with aperture. It is the workflow that kept me from changing.
I got a new MacPro 12 GB ram, 4TB HDD my library mostly indexed files sits on a raided 2TB for maximum of comfort. I did this in an effort to keep me from writing the posts I writing lately. I do not have the time rally to do this but reality is something different.
Today I am working on a job I need to finish quickly and in aperture workflow manner. So I switched to full screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen mode and after pressing 'H' for the HUD my screen started flickering. please look at the video I posted in my flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mawas/4719742585/
Now this is the second time this happened in a short time after I got a new mac and upgraded to 10.6.4! After the screen had jammed up : http://gallery.me.com/masuwa/100103 I needed to hard boot my mac I am getting nervous!

Hello, I also saw you post about this over on Flickr. I'll post my experiences here as well. Yes, I've had the screen flickering and generally going haywire and bringing down the whole system. Had to restart from the power button.
As with your experience, this has all happened since the update to 10.6.4. Frequent hangs as well. I've just repaired my main work database for Aperture. We'll see whether that helps any.

In normal view, half the page disappears off right of screen. in full screen this does not happen. what can be done to correct the screen ratio for normal screen?

version 5 loaded on windows 7. all went well for a while. one day while using, ratio of normal screen doubled in width; i.e. half the page disappears off the screen to the right (on a wide screen). when full screen mode applied, ratio is fine. it only happens in normal view, which is the usually prefered option. I cannot determine any means within the program to resize the normal screen. nothing else is affected, only mozilla firefox in normal view. not that when program is opened from keyboard the page is correct for a moment, then enlarges the width with 1/2 page dissappearing.

This issue can be caused by the Babylon Toolbar 1.1.8 extension

Can I display EyeTV's live TV over HDMI-out and be able to see my desktop using screen-sharing on a headless mac-mini used as a media-box?

Hi,
I'm thinking of buying a new mac-mini to replace my current one which acts as an iTunes server and records TV programs using eyeTV. I connect using screen-sharing/VNC to be able to do stuff on it (like handbrake etc.)
I have eyeTV with a satelite receiver and I want to change the setup so that:
- the new mac-mini continues to work as an iTunes server (and handbrake workhorse)
- I can use the HDMI output (inc. audio) to show eyeTV's live TV full-screen app
- I can connect using screen-sharing/VNC to the mac-mini and see my normal desktop to be able to maintain it etc. but this is a headless display (no screen is connected to the display-port).
- recorded media I'd play through the appleTV2 still + rentals etc. unless anyone knows if eyeTV software can offer up iTunes content? I don't like the eyeTV recordings in general as it seems very slow to me for access when there are lots of recordings and wouldn't be available in other apleTVs in the house AFAIK.
The main benefit that this gives me is that I'd no longer need a seperate satelite box to watch live TV and can add more eyeTV hardware to get additional TV channels all through the same HUD on the TV for ease of access.
Does this seem possible in theory & practice (ie are there any gotcha's to consider?)
- can I force the HDMI output resolution to 1080i as I go via an amp to the TV and the appleTV2 drops to low-res in this configuration so I have had to find a workaround for that.
- does the mac-mini have IR input that can be programmed?
- Does eyeTV software remain stable for long periods?
- Does the HDMI out have any handshake issues that would need a reset of the display (somehow)?
thanks in advance for any thoughts/contributions
Lee

I think the easiest way to do this is to have the EyeTV app running in one user account and sent via HDMI to the TV, and use a separate user account for Screen Sharing. Both logins can be active at the same time and with Lion you can connect via screen sharing to which ever login you need.
With regards to the Mac video resolution changing, when it is not the current input on your AV receiver. This is 'normal', if the Mac sees no signal it drops down the a lower level. What you need is to buy a HDMI Detective Plus which tricks the Mac in to always seeing a signal and hence it will not drop down the resolution. See http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=8005
The Mac mini does have an IR receiver. This can be used with the EyeTV app, iTunes, and similar. Yes I believe EyeTV would run for prolonged periods quite happily, it is has been around for a long time and had most of the rough edges polished off. However one issue you will have to deal with is that it does not automatically update its program guide data. For this you might have to write or modify an AppleScript. Elgato support or their user forums will be a lot of help.
You can set EyeTV to convert recordings to an iTunes (Apple TV) compatible format and then delete them from EyeTV.
The HDMI Detective should solve your handshaking problems.

Guitar21,
your MacBook Pro has booted into its Recovery mode. From the OS X Utilities menu, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Does it get to the login screen now?

Images in Aperture appears oversaturated in the Full mode. Please help?

I'm using 30" Apple HD screen, and when I opening photo in the normal mode all the colors are fine. However once I change it to full screen mode the Red and Yellow become overstaurated. Please help!

Are you using two displays? If you are then odds are your other display (not the 30") is set as the default display. When this happens the full mode uses the other display's profile (the default) in full screen mode.
What you need to do to correct it is to go into the color sync utility. Under the "Devices" tab go down to "Displays". Toggle it show all your displays. Select your 30" ACD and then to the right select the "Make Default Display" button.

When trying to edit a photo, it disappears (black screen) or screen is full of lines. Is this a bug with the latest software update?

After updating with the latest software, when trying to edit a photo, it disappears (black screen) or screen is full of lines. If I blindly crop or edit the photo, when I exit edit mode, those changes have been made, but obviously this is unacceptable. Is this a bug with the latest software update?

There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/ Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help: As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Everytime I open my iTunes it says "Running iTunes in 64-bit mode requires Mac OS X 10.7 or later" how do I fix this?

If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

I cant watch youtube on full mode its always hangs only in firefox

i cant watch youtube on full mode its always hangs only in firefox

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
 To Enable SafeMode 
*You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
*''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

"Fit screen to full display" and turn OFF "Fit screen in window"

I like being able to access my 24" iMac from my 13" MacBook Pro using ARD.
There's one feature that I'd really like but which seems to be missing: I want to "Fit screen to full display" but be able to TURN OFF "Fit screen in window" (that button disappears when you go to full screen).
In other words, I want to view my iMac's screen at actual pixel size, where the screen scrolls as you move the mouse to the edges of my smaller MacBook screen, but NOT in a windowed mode. That way I'm maximizing my MacBook screen real estate but not having to strain to read a miniaturized version of the iMac screen.
I'm assuming this just isn't an option, but if anyone knows of a solution I'd love to hear it!
Thanks,
Kevin

You could always request it as a feature through Apple Remote Desktop Feedback.

You can rotate a screen shot, by opening it, (Preview is the default) un the menu bar Tools click rotate.
If you mean convert if from landscape to portrait, none that I know of.

How do I clear the screen in text mode (cls)

How do I clear the screen in text mode (cls)
Thanks,

Clearing of console is an OS specific command, so
in case of Windows you should try:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cls");Though it wouldn't help, because exec() will be done as a separate
process... :)

Mirror iPad Screen at full-resolution on HDTV?

Best I can tell from what I've read, there's no accessory I can use to hook my iPad to an HDTV via HDMI, DVI, or RGB analog, and still mirror the iPad's screen at full iPad resolution.
Is that true?

Thanks for confirming the impression I got from reading this forum, and various other sources.
What I'm mostly looking for some sort of way to have my iBooks (or Kindle books) show up on my big-screen HDTV. That, so that I can read while I exercise on my elliptical machine. I created a ... book rack ... for my iPad and attached it to the exercise machine, but, not surprisingly, it ends up jostling around to the point of being unreadable.
Probably the best bet would be to find some what to attach it to the wall instead of the exercise machine.
I read ... somewhere ... about a rumor that Apple might add iBooks, and possibly Apps capability in general, to AppleTV. As best I understand it, that plan apparently has either been scuttled, or it was just an unfounded rumor in the first place.

BSP screen in edit mode

Will i be able to create a BSP screen in edit mode?Or can i be able to create a material(MM01) from BSP screen.

Hi Niranjan,
You can design any transaction using BSPs. But for designing big transactions like MM01, VA01.. it takes more development hours and effort.
Generally we will design very simple transations using BSPs.
Thanks,

My ipad screen is full of horizontal lines

My ipad screen is full of horizontal lines & it wont switch off. Even after force close, when i restart, the lines are still there ?
What do I do ?
Regards
Sumit

First try a simple reset if you already havent. Hold down the home and power buttons for 15 to 30 seconds until you see the silver apple then let you device start normally. If the lines are still there the next step would to be backup your device and restore from iTunes as a new device. If the lines are still there after you restore your device would need service or replacement.
