Has anyone experienced the on/off touch button and the brightness touch buttons failing on a 30" cinema screen?

I have a 30" cinema display which is about 3 years old. Everything was working fine yesterday but on reboot today the screen went dim and the brightness buttons did not work. I used the key board and increased the brightness but it went dim again  on release. The on/off touch button also did not work.
I have set to disable both of these in the preferences and all is working now but I wondered if anyone else has experience of both of these touch buttons failing. The monitor has been switched off when booting up on a morning but I had not switched it off manually before shut down or set it to do so which I thought was odd. Now I wonder if it was the first signs of a breakdown of the switches on the monitor.
Thanks for any imput in advance.

Try:                                               
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable       
- Try on another computer                            
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • D800 file compatibility:  Has anyone experienced problems with loading D800 files onto the iPad using the camer connector kit?  I have tried both RAW and JPEG using SDHC and CF cards and the iPad(3) doesnt recognise any of the files.

    Has anyone experienced problems with downloading Nikon D800 files to the iPad3 using the camer connector kit?  I have tried .RAW and JPEG (of various sizes) on both SD and CF cards, but the iPad doesn't recognise the files. 
    I have seen various forums discussing Lightroom and PSE updates that are required to process .NEF files but I can't find anything on the iPad/camera connector issue.
    I dont have any problem if I put the SD card straight into the SD slot in my iMac and Aperture will process the files fine, but I would really like to be able to download and view files on the move on the iPad.
    Any advice appreciated?
    PS - saw something that suggested the iPad had a maximum file size of 16mb for photos, not sure if this is correct, but I have tried smaller JPEG files and they still aren't recognised.

    If your camera supports both PTP and Mass Storage Device modes, it may be necessary to use both modes to import all media content.
    If some files do not import as expected using one mode, try switching to the other mode and importing again.
    Note: Some cameras may refer to PTP as Pictbridge or PTP/Pictbridge.

  • Has anyone experienced file extensions not being recognised by the right program?

    I'm using CC -- the whole show, Win 7 Pro and Win 8 Pro on a second PC. Only the Win 7 system is showing this issue but both systems have identical software. Click on an inDesign file and Acrobat tries to open it.
    Click on a Photoshop file and a HDR application called 'Luminance' tries to open it.
    Use the traditional method of choosing the program to open the files with is a waste of time. They still try to be opened by the same apps. I'm no newby here. I know my way around the registry and tried altering that to set the file to program relationship. Next boot and it's as if I'd never altered the registry in the first place.
    This is strictly a work PC, not the sort of thing you'd expect to contract a virus or malware but I installed Microsoft Security Essencials and did a 'Home visit' from a well known AV company. Nothing out of the ordinary on either machine.
    When I bought this system in 2010, I had an issue installing Windows on it. I had to get a MS technician to log on remotely and do the install. (Hour and half so it must have been significant) but since then it has run daily without any issues. Except for a plug-in suite called onOne 5,6 and 7. Whenever I tried to use it with Photoshop, it would open two versions of itself and take out or freeze Photoshop.
    There is only one app in that suite I ever use so part of the refund was providing a stand-alone version of that app. I've pretty much convinced myself that their suite is the cause of the issue with file extensions  but getting anyone to admit they have flakey software is like trying make a horse talk another human language.
    The most recent issue started not long after I installed Luminance HDR, A free app that does a great job of tone mapping. I also use Luminance on the second PC that does not display these any of these problems. It has gotten so bad from trying to install the onOne app as a plugin,(another waste of money, it still kills Photoshop) that I can no longer use file manager to choose a file to open with any Adobe cc program I have. Today I targeted the motherboard and flashed the BIOS, and replaced all the drivers with new versions also.
    Still doing it, GRRRR! I can't believe I'm the only one who has this problem so I'm posting here in the hope I'm not alone and might get a pointer or three on how to fix it. No harm in hoping, is there?

    Well, well, well... Nothing has changed. Somehow or another Adobe has managed to truly take control of Windows 7.
    I updated Bridge or more correctly... The Cloud did and every files extension in Bridge had 'none' as the application. Lovely stuff. Now All I want to know is why did Adobe take control of Windows file manager and cause this much grief?
    I almost never use the clunky and often impossible to manage Bridge. Simple freeware... Irfanview is way more elegant than Bridge and 10 times more useful IMO.
    Well thanks for the heads up Curt. I never considered the full implication of giving Adobe the freedom to add and remove whatever they wanted to... Forget the don't fix what isnt broken thing... Just pour everything we've got in the cloud onto all the  members PCs, eh? Hard drives are cheap and hey, what are forums for when things go wrong if it isn't to keep Adobe informed of bugs they can silently fix and pour 'em back into the cloud as fixes.
    Ha,ha you just gotta love progress eh?
    This is really going to take on. I can see it now... For every mess up of a PC -- "THE CLOUD DID IT"!!!

  • Has anyone experienced a problem with FB posting since the installation of iOS 6?

    Since the installation of iOS 6, I noticed that when I post a photo on FaceBook it does not show that post using my iPad or iPhone. I posted using my iMac and within seconds it showed up on two devices mentioned above. Please help.

    Hello,
    I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod Touch/Ipad/Iphone/Ipod Classic, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
    Do the IOS update (the one that is the latest)
    Reset All Settings: SETTINGS>GENERAL>RESET>RESET ALL SETTINGS
    Use it until it dies (automatically shuts off)
    Plug into Charge
    Leave it 1.5 hours or longer after it reaches 100% --> Undisturbed (preferably overnight)
    Give it a few days to Calibrate
    This has helped me on my Ipod Touch 4th generation, running IOS 6.0.1
    Hope that helps!
    If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
    Cheers!

    See Here for
    Frozen or unresponsive iPod touch
    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore...
    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the iPod Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the iPod On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

    Hi umawi,
    I understand that you are trying to reinstall an app from the App Store, but you are unable to accept the new Terms and Conditions for using the App Store. I have a few suggestions for you that may help you resolve this issue. First, I would like to recommend that you restart your iPhone and then see if the issue persists:
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201559
    If the issue is still present, try clearing the Safari History and Website Data, which is explained in the following article:
    Safari web settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201265
    To clear your history and cookies from Safari in iOS 8, tap Settings > Safari > Clear History and Website Data. In iOS 7 or earlier, tap Clear History and tap Clear Cookies and Data.
    If it is necessary to take the above step and clear Safari information, you may want to restart the phone again before checking to see if the issue is cleared. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • HT1688 Has anyone experienced the 3GS phone exploding when turned off?

    Has anyone experienced the 3GS phone exploding when turned off and not in use after a period of time? Is so, what did you do to get it replaced?

    I haven't, but thanks for asking. 
    Bring your phone to Apple for replacement.  If you're in the warranty period, the replacement will be free; if not you will pay $149.

  • My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE  app, has anyone experienced this problem?

    My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE  app, has anyone experienced this problem?

    This is not a problem I have only had with 7th gen. iPod.  I have had this problem with the 5th gen.  It goes back a few years.  Nike and Apple are aware of this.  Nothing has been done.  It appears that when the iPod voice commences (whether to update you on the status of your run) and you touch a button to prompt a mileage update or song change yourself (or even brush the device wrong when taking off a jacket), the operating system overloads and cannot sort it out.  It then shuts down and reboots.  Your mileage is lost.  So sorry.  Have a nice day.
    Love the other aspects of running with a nano (small and light weight).  I can keep it high and dry and out of the way.  Like the software.  Use it almost everyday.  Hate the unknown dropped runs.  I have logged over 2,000 miles with these devices.  Today I lost another 3 miles - probably the 30-40th time it has happened.  Frustration is somewhere between time for another device to time for another system - Map My Run indeed!
    This probably occurs with my iPod once or twice a month.  Went to the Apple Store - three times.  The first time was maybe two years ago and they first tried some magic dust and then on the second visit, they swapped out my nano - it was a bit flimsy.  The problem returned.  I then upgraded.  The problem returned.  The third time they did a reset and it seemed to help.  Then, it returned.  But to download an older software version, verify the fidelity of the UBS cable, jump from computer to computer, make a trip to the Apple store, and perform so many two steps on one leg just to get what we paid for seems . . .  well, lame.  And, Apple told us the thingy would work using all the different computers and software (Vista, Nike, etc. etc.).   
    Oh, one other thing.  The Apple Store told me to complain to Nike.  Nike said their software is fine.  This is like dealing with General Motors or the government - but, worse.  Not my problem man.  See the guy over there.  Got it.
    I note that no one from Apple is jumping in the chain here with a fix.  So much for customer exuberance.  Generally like Apple.  We have about 20 Apple devices in our family (desktops, portables, phones, pods, tablets) and are lining up for the watches . . .  but, maybe Apple is an idea who time has come and gone, . . . like the wind. 

  • Has anyone experienced, if so found a solution to having electrical shock, tingling, pain and burning in fingers hand and wrist from using the apple mac computers??

    Has anyone experienced electrical schock, tingling, burning and pain in the fingers, hand and wrist while using the apple mac desktop and the apple pro notebook??  If, so have you found a solution??  Never experienced this with any other computers and I have talked with my Doctor as well as a specialist and have had an EMG test for capatunel and nerve damage both test were negative

    I have experienced some mild tingling if I touch the aluminum case on my iMac at the same time that I touch the metal cases on my external hard drives.  They are all connected to the same surge suppressor and are on the same circuit, which is definitely properly grounded.  I can't explain it, and I just make sure not to touch them at the same time.
    I have never had any sensation touching just one of the devices alone.  Is that what you are experiencing?

  • My home screen is gigantic. As a result I cannot see the keypad for entering in my passcode. Somehow, everything on my home screen has expanded to gigantic size. I've tried to reset the phone by holding the home button and the on off button...

    My home screen is gigantic… So much so that 1/200 of the normal screen display now fills up the entire screen. As a result, I cannot even see my keypad to enter in my passcode. I've tried a hard reset a few times (holding the home button and the on off button at the same time until the iPhone restarts). This has not resulted in any changes. Any ideas?

    Thank you Lawrence. that worked! I have another question for you as well. I just got this 6 Plus and it is already saying that I am nearing the end of my storage. My  iCloud is apparently 20gb and I have 6gb left. I'm attaching a screen shot. Any thoughts on how I can make available some more storage?
    I Also wanted to get an enhanced quality Speech voice Alex, but it is saying I don't have enough Memory (I think it says memory because I can't read the message fully). Lastly, in your opinion does Grayscale really improve battery life above and beyond what can be achieved by closing out all apps etc. Thank you.

  • Has anyone experienced problems with Mackeeper? I did not complete downloading this software. Yet, occasionally when on the internet, I will have the MacKeeper multi-colored circle replace my pointer. How do you deal with this?

    Has anyone experienced problems with Mackeeper? I did not complete downloading this software. Yet, occasionally when on the internet, I will have the MacKeeper multi-colored circle replace my pointer. How do you deal with this?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Don't download MacKeeper. Users complain about this app and it damages OS X. Also, Mac OS X knows how to take care of itself, so you don't need any other cleaning application that may damage OS X. See > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3691

  • My ipod touch is frozen on a screen with the ipod logo and the usb charger cable...i cannot get rid of it...i let the battery die...i held the sleep button and the power buttons..anyone have any ideas?

    my ipod touch is frozen... the screen has a picture of the itunes logo and a usb charger. I have held the sleep button and the power button to reset and i have let the battery die and started to recharge...niether worked. any ideas???

    Try charing it to 50% at least.
    If all else fails, try putting it in DFU mode. Connect it to iTunes, (iTunes may not detect the device, but that's ok) hold the power and home buttons down for 10 seconds, then release the power button but keep holding the home button until it goes into DFU mode. iTunes should detect it and ask for a restore.

  • Has anyone experienced the mute switch / auto-rotate switch iOS bug on their ipad?

    Has anyone experienced the mute switch / auto-rotate switch iOS bug on their ipad?
    I have experienced this on iPad 1 as well as iPad 2.
    Basically, when you set the side switch to toggle screen orientation (or mute), after a period of use I will have either my sound cease to function or the ipad screen will not orient correctly.  This depends on what i have chosen the side switch to toggle.  I am not sure what causes it.  The time it takes for the problem to appear is inconsistent. Some say it is caused by third party applications.
    One can find numerous threads on here if you search for "sound on my ipad stopped working" or "orientation not working".  It appears to be the same problem. Fudging with the toggle switch settings can fix it (but it takes a weird order to get it out of its non functioning loop). 
    Here is a thread that addresses the sound issue:  https://discussions.apple.com/message/15263298#15263298

    Its only for notifications.. it is not for sound from videos or music!

  • Has anyone experienced this problem: I am editing in FCP 7.0.3 on a Mac 10.6.8 - I have a clip in the browser that is full frame and matched the other clips but when I drop it in the time line it becomes a fully zoomed in version of itself

    has anyone experienced this problem: I am editing in FCP 7.0.3 on a Mac 10.6.8 - I have a clip in the browser that is full frame and fine and it matches the other clips in my bins but when I drop it into the time line it becomes a fully zoomed in version of itself and I can only see a small portion of the image.  What's going on?  I've noticed this has happened in the past randomly with other clips and it's driving me cray cray!  Any help appreciated greatly and thanks in advance for taking the time

    In the FCP Browser, click on the source clip that is showing up sized incorrectly to select it. Once it is selected, type Command + 9 to see the item properties for the clip. Either report those properties here, or take a screen shot of the item properties and post the screen shot here.
    Next, click anywhere in your sequence timeline and then type Command + 0 {zero} to see your sequence settings. Either report those settings or take a screen shot of the sequence settings and post that screen shot here.
