Grey box with 'BouncingHeads' test

Hi,
PC under XP with IE 6. with Sun's JVM 1.4.2_02.
Bouncing heads test only shows a grey box and http://javatester.org shows 'SunMicrosystems' only not the full version.
Would could cause these not to fully work?
It seems that the JVM is still half working as there is no specific error msg.
Any help much appreciated!
Thx,
LC.

It's not clear what you mean by "Bouncing Heads test".
If you want to check to see if the plugin is functioning properly, try viewing the demo applet on this site..

Missing Images Grey Box with ?

Have tried drills to view inserted images in 4-page Pages doc, going thru Finder to view, reinsertion of images, trashed com.apple.iwork.Pages.plist,,reinstalled iworks '05 CD, upgraded to 1.0.2, read copious discussions from gurus, still no joy. Images I inserted still there, elusive as ever which remain hidden with that ugly "X" and "?" when reopening doc. Am Mac addict from day one, average Mac user, not tech guru, programmer, developer but need step by step instruction for my low-level 83-year-old comprehension. Pages works o.k. with glitches but the missing image grey box with X and ? reared its ugly head last April and still with me on occasion. Finish 4-page Pages monthly Newsletter 5 meg doc with about 15 inserted jpeg images, "save as" for local distribution printing plus "pdf" for e-mail transmission, print it but when reopening doc after closing I get the grey box with X and ? for my inserted images and have to start over. Images I inserted originally still there opening thru Fiinder viewing "Package Content". Ran G5 Hardware CD test, no problem. From discussions I noted one solution that worked by uncompressing "index.xml.gz" file. Tried that with Stuffitt which didn't work. Am unable to view to see if my images were corrupted as the Discussion Guru "Sylvain Pedneault" outlined on Sep 15, 05, that his images had property sf:corrupt="true". Could be that's my problem if I knew how to determine and fix. I've hit a firewall and am patiently waiting for Apple Pages gurus to resolve this issue still unresolved which I'm confident they will, but at my age I don't buy green bananas. My frustration level is maxed out and will appreciate help in simple step by step language as a work-around until Apple Pages comes thru with upgrade. If I make it thru the Pearly Gates, not guaranteed, I'll put in a good word for the Guru who can resolve my problem!! Thanks.

Hello Jim,
If you want to uncompress a "index.xml.gz" file, try this way:
a) Copy the "index.xml.gz" file to your desktop, so you are not working with the original file.
b) Start from "Applications/Utilities" the program "Terminal".
c) In the terminal window, type: gunzip (with a space after it).
d) Grap the "index.xml.gz" file from the dektop and drop it over the terminal window.
e) Hit the return key.
Now you have a "index.xml" file, which you can open with a text editor.
To compress the file, do the following:
a) In the terminal window. type: gzip (with a space after it).
b) Grap the "index.xml" file from the dektop and drop it over the terminal window.
c) Hit the return key.
The file should be compressed.
To make the template readable for Pages, do the following:
a) Copy the original "index.xml.gz" file from the template package folder (not to the desktop) to have a backup.
b) Now copy the "index.xml.gz" file from the desktop (the one you have edited) to the template package folder and overwrite the original.
Please let us know, what you find out.
Frank.

When i open finder the windown is a completely blank grey box with the title "Window" as a header, and all my folders will not open when clicked

when i open finder the windown is a completely blank grey box with the title "Window" as a header, and all my folders will not open when c
the problem started when my computer screen broke from something falling on it, the screen was replaced but the people that fixed it for me told me there may be some hard disk issues when a problem like this happens, they ran their own checks and found nothing and i was given my laptop back, then when i tried to use it, i found this problem. everything else works fine.
i have shutdown and re-started my computer multiple times and i have also re-started finder multiple times, both having no effect
i have also done a few other things to find that my apple.com.finder.plist and apple.com.sidebar.plist are both missing, and are not re-creating themselves, i have found no way to bring them back either.
any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

there is an app called daisydisk on mac app store which will help you see exactly where the memory is focused and consumed try using that app and see which folders are using more memory

Grey box with a white spot

My son has somehow created a grey box with a white spot with circles his iPad 2 screen and when it is touched a larger box with the icons and the words gesture, device, home, favorites. How do I get rid of that?

Try Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch 'off' (it might also being set 'on' by a triple-click of the home button, which you can also set via the Accessibility screen)

Grey boxes with question marks

When I view some PDFs, a grey box with a red question mark inside appears. I cannot move, edit, or delete these boxes. I searched the web and most of the responses indicated that such boxes indicated corrupt images, but my documents do not have images. Mine appear at the start and end of text blocks. They do not appear in thumbnail view. I am running Acrobat Professional, version 8.1.
What are these boxes and how can I get rid of them?
Attached is a screen shot of what I am seeing.
Robert

A little more info to follow up the excellent diagnosis.
When Acrobat opens a PDF and it finds annotations of an unknown type it shows these boxes. The way to get them to disappear (or change to something else) is to install a specific plug-in designed to show them.
Older versions of Acrobat would just show nothing at all.
Acrobat 5 would show nothing.
Acrobat 7 would show the boxes.

Missing Files Images Grey Box with ?

I have a large document that I am putting in many screenshots. I use the standard format (picture1, picture2, etc), then drag and drop them to my document. This has worked fine overall but yesterday I opened my file and received the error message that files were missing, specificlaly images. If I accept this and look at my document, there are grey boxes with a question mark in the center. What happened? The grey box shows the proper file name, just no image. Show contents shows that I have no files in there, I am at a loss (to fix this and my graphics).
BTW, I did start this from scratch (no templates).

Ok, I too got scared with this problem today! But apparently managed to fix it!
I was designing a photo book in Pages (to later order through iPhoto). I had about 90 high-res photos placed on 80 pages (with some pages having just text). Experimenting with the "PDF pages to JPEG" Automator scripts, my Pages document suddenly displayed grey boxes with a [?] symbol where about half of the images were. I still had about 40 images OK, but the other ones wouldn't display at all.
Opening the contents of the Pages document from the Finder, I was able to confirm that all my photos where inside the document and that they were not corrupted in any way.
I uncompressed the "index.xml.gz" file inside the Pages document and after a little examination, I spotted an odd property on an image entry: sf:corrupt="true"!!! What the ****.... That property was assigned to 43 images, the same ones that no longer appeared in my document.
To be able to edit the index.xml file more easily, I modified Pages' preferences file so that it would not "gz" the index.xml file. See: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/AppleApplications/Conceptual/iWork2-0XML/Chapter02/chapter_2_section5.html
I then re-launched Pages, opened my document with the images still broken, just saved it right away, closed the document from Pages and opened its contents from the Finder. The index.xml file no longer being compressed in gz format, the file was now easily editable. I opened it with BBEdit and removed all instances of sf:corrupt="true". Saved the file, closed everything and reopened my document in Pages. Bingo! All images are back!
Where does that "corrupt" property come from?

Why have some apps on my Ipad turned into a grey box with lines in it?

3 apps on my ipad have turned from icons into grey boxes with lines in them. When I click on them, they try updating but it doesn't complete. What's going on here? Is this some kind of virus?

Not a virus. More like a glitch. When mine did that all I needed to do was to open the apps and the icons reset.
If you won't lose any game progress or the such, you could try to delete and then redownload the apps.
If you're having issues downloading the apps, try to go into the settings, iTUnes and app store, sign out and then sign back in.
The app store has been a bit wiggy lately. I've had some issues downloading apps or updates and it's not on my end, it's on Apple's end. Which, unfortunately, means there's not much a user can do but wait for Apple to fix it.

I can see the pictures in iPhoto but when I try to open a picture I get a grey box with a big !

I can see the pictures in iPhoto but suddenly this morning when I try to open a picture I get a grey box with a big "!" Please help!

You really should run check for updates. It's up to 9.1.3 now.
Option 1
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. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Running iphoto 6.06 some of my images have been replaced by a grey box with a dotted line? How can I rectify this?

Hi I have about 2% of my library replaced by a grey background with a dotted lined box where the image should be?
Any ideas why or how to return my images?

I too have no use for the new Photos. Trying to sort through 6,000+ photos by dates (some that are incorrect) was very time consuming. I was looking for a way to reinstall iPhoto from my Time Capsule because I thought that Apple had done away with iPhoto on my computer. I found this bit of information. I now have iPhoto back and am not wasting time trying to find photos anymore. (No I did not have them sorted into albums because I found the Event sort to be perfect for me and those were my 'albums'.) I don't know anything about the $3.99 a month. However, I do not put my photos in iCloud and did not transfer my library to iCloud when it asked me. Hope this helps.
Using iPhoto and Aperture after you migrate to Photos
iPhoto — and Aperture, if you downloaded it — remains on your system in the Applications folder, and you can continue to use it. If you open iPhoto or Aperture after you upgrade to Photos, you’ll be asked if you want to open your library there or in Photos.
Any changes or edits you make in iPhoto or Aperture aren't reflected in Photos. And any changes or edits you make in Photos will not be reflected in iPhoto or Aperture.

I have hundreds of photos on my computer but when I try to click on them it shows a grey box with an exclamation mark. How do I get the program to let me edit and use the photos?

I have hundreds of photos on my computer but when I click on the photo all that comes up is a gray screen with with an exclamation mark.
These are the last photos ever taken of my husband and I need to know how to recover them properly.

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

My Macbook showed a grey box with numerous languages telling me that I needed to hold down the power button to turn it off.

Here is the error log, can anyone tell me what the issue was? I am going to be putting a new harddrive in, and adding 2GB RAM in the place of one of the 1GB. I don't want to do that if there is some other problem I need to fix. Running newest version of Snow Leopard, cannot put in enough RAM to run Lion. iLife '11 is installed, I noticed the computer runs a little slower ever since then. Thanks for the help.

Don't know. But if it happens again, book an appointment with a Genius at an Apple store.
If you can take a photo of it when it happens even better, because it can be difficult to re-create the problem in their presence.

How do I get the selection tool [v cursor] to display the grey box with w and h numbers as it moves?

Adobe Pro XI Small White Boxes in a Wide Grey Rectangle with "Expected Dict Object" error

When editing a large document and attempting to extract pages, I lost the thumbnail view of those particular pages (they've turned to blank on the left-hand side) and there is a wide, grey box with small white squares in the center that seems to be functioning as a place holder for where those pages used to be.

FYI - This regression has been filed here: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-31989

When I click on my uploaded photos a big box with an exclamation point pops up?

After loading my photos on Iphoto when I click the photo to try and view it larger or at all, a grey box with an exclamation point comes onto the screen. How do I view my photos?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
