  • Flickering Grey / White lines across browser when video/animation is being played

    Hi,
    For a while now i've been getting these flickering grey/white lines across my browser, usually only noticeable when a flash animation, video or embedded advert is being played on the page. I only ever seemed to notice it happening when using Google Chrome, and a few tips suggested disabling one of the Adobe flash plugins on chrome. This seemed to fix the issue, until recently it came back again.
    I decided to try and reinstall Chrome, which is when i noticed the issue happening in Safari too, which made me believe that it wasn't a browser problem but my Mac itself.
    The lines seem to appear quite intermittently and only when a video or animation is being played.
    Another thing i should mention is that i've not yet noticed this happening when watching video directly from my hard drive, it only ever seems to happen when i'm streaming online e.g. youtube, netflix etc But with the likes of netflix, it stops happening when i'm in full screen?
    I'm currently using a Macbook Pro Mid 2010, OS X Mavericks 10.9.3. I also had the Logic Board replaced under a year ago due to other issues.
    I also use dual monitors, My macbook pro and a Dell 27" IPS monitor. The flickering lines appear on both monitors, so it shouldn't be a display issue.
    Below is a link to a video of the issue i'm having whilst i was visiting youtube:

    Any suggestions to fix this would be appreciated,
    Thanks,

    I have also been having this problem. I recently bought a new iMac to relieve this aging computer, and kept this guy as a backup. I wiped the computer and installed Mavericks, and this problem keeps coming up. I have almost nothing on this computer... which is why I have no idea why it's having issues. The extended hardware test also shows nothing. Also tried resetting PRAM/SMC, which seems to make it go away for a little while.
    Before I reset and upgraded to Mavericks, I was having another weird graphics issue where things would fragment and freeze either momentarily or permanently until I restarted. This mostly happened while I was using Skype. I brought it into the Apple Store several times but they apparently could never re-create the problem... I have a feeling these are related. I'm afraid the graphics card is failing and of course the warranty has run out.

  • White lines and missing colour in extruded text

    hello, i know this question has be asked many time but i havent found a solution as yet. I am usinf Cs5
    I am finding these white lines in t he 3d part of the text and missing colour in the text itself. This occurs when viewing in illustator itself and when saved as pdf and jpg.
    I have noticed a solution has been to flatten the image or rastarize it. This does not give me the quality i want, and to me defeats the purpose of doing something in illustror cancels out the ability to resize.
    I need a solution ASAP as client needs their logo

    Thanks again! it was doing my head in!!!

  • Dropped iPhone- first small discoloration, then white line.

    Hello. I dropped my iPhone (not 3g) while at work. Luckily, the glass didn't shatter or anything. After a few minutes of using it, I noticed a bubble-like yellow discoloration on the left bottom corner (on the grey area before the arrow where it says 'slide to unlock'). It sorta reminded of what liquid would look like under the screen. I was using it sideways later on & noticed the discoloration went away, but now there was a fine thin vertical white line where the discoloration was. You could barely tell. A few hours later, the white vertical line kinda seperated to form something like this "-" going down. Is that a dead pixel or what? Any solutions to make it go away? Btw, when the phone is off, there is no line or anything... it looks normal. No external damages. I can live with it, the phone still works, but I was just wondering. Thanks!

    Hello Pranav9876,
    It sounds like you are getting a white line running vertically on the screen of your phone after dropping it. I recommend starting with some troubleshooting before suggesting service.  I would start by resetting your phone:
    Reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Then if the issue persists I would recommend backing up your device to iTunes and then restore it as new to rule out software.
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

    If the issue persists after all this, I would recommend seeking service for your device:

  • My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help.

    My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help. I can't find my answer on the Internet.

    By far the most common problem hardware-wise seems to be scuffs on the aluminium. Yours is the first report of a faulty screen I've seen.
    If you use the same Apple ID on both devices it'll sync whatever you want it to - music/apps/photos/messages/etc.
    I've just switched from a Galaxy S3 to iPhone 5 (having already owned an iPad for a while) so I'm in a similar position!

    My iphone 4s blacked out you cant see anything but I white line, how do you transfer everything from your iphone to a computer

    Next time make regular backups of your computer. The iPhone is not a backup device, and I'm sure you lost more than your iTunes library. See this user tip for your options: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

  • PDF displays as grey with a horizontal white line

    I have a 4MB PDF of a family tree generated by MacFamilyTree.  It is about 350 pages if printed. I can view it using Apple's Preview program and Firefox (24.0).  However, if I try to view it using Acrobat Reader (11.0.04) all I get is a grey screen with a white horizontal line.  I can use "Save as..." from Acrobat Reader and save a new PDF.  The new PDF can be viewed just fine in Preview and Firefox, but NOT in Acrobat Reader.
    Relatives on Windows XP and 7 have the same problem of not being able to view the PDF, seeing just a white page.  Some can view it inside their web browsers; some cannot.  Some can view it using Acrobat Reader (no idea which versions); some cannot, seeing the grey page with a white line.
    I sent the PDF file to MacFamilyTree for help, but they said that the problem is with Acrobat Reader and no the PDF itself.  Screen shots of the same file opened in Acrobat Reader (top) and Preview (zoomed in - bottom) are below.  Any suggestions on how to get a PDF to display in Acrobat Reader?

    In the Print Dialogue, choose "Save as AdobePDF" instead of "Save as PDF". Save as PDF saves as a Preview PDF which is why it works in Preview and in Firefox's PDFJS viewer (which ISN'T Adobe based)

  • I dropped my Iphone 5 which resulted in it shattering and the screen was still on but it was black with only a white line through it so I couldnt access the phone however I switched over to my Droid and now I cannot send or receive messages?

    I dropped my Iphone 5 which resulted in it shattering and the screen was still on but it was black with only a white line through it so I couldnt access the phone however I switched over to my Droid and now I cannot send or receive messages and I cant turn off imessage because I cant see anything on the screen.  Help?

    Then the bottom of the support document states that if you do not have access to the device (which unfortunately because of the screen issue you do not) to contact Apple Care. That is what you need to do.

  • After importing pictures they became grey with doted white line around

    I have imported pictures (RAW CR2 format) from my camera hundreds of times and they all went well. But this time the only the import worked well (I saw the preview when each picture was imported). Then Iphoto asked if i would like to delete the pictures on the camera after import. I deleted them. But then when I should take a look at the pictures they were grey with doted white lines around all of them. When I chose a picture and check the properties I can see that the pictures use normal space. I tried to drag one picture to a directory in the finder but this didn´t work either. The export doesn't work either. When I scroll fast among the pictures I can see them for a short period but when I stop scrolling they will turn grey with doted white line around. Whats wrong? and how to solve?
    system: iPhoto11 and Lion.

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

  • White line on iPhone 6

    Hi,
    Using the V32.02 app we do see a horizontal white line above the content in portrait and a vertical line to the left in landscape. See attached image. Currently it isn't mentioned in the list of "known issues". Is this just a problem with our app?
    /Peter

    MABury,
    Your comment isn't relevant at all to the topic of this thread but please do read the basic information from Adobe on your subject:
    The iPhone 6 model has 1366x750 dimensions and the iPhone 6 Plus model has 1920x1080 dimensions; however, these folio dimensions are not yet supported—we recommend using 1136x640 folios for iPhone 5, 6, and 6 Plus models.
    As Adobe doesn't yet support the full size you simply can't make it fill the entire screen. Even so... we don't even fill a full iPhone 5 folio size - we use a black background. Which is perfectly fine and supported.
    Still - it shouldn't show a white line. My question (again): Do any of you see a white line on your V32 app when viewed on an iPhone 6?
    /Peter
