Help me see MR MAGOO...

About two years ago my daughters iMac, MA199LL/A model A1173, blew its video card. It starts up with the Apple three chord chime followed by the apple logo but then huge different coloured bars/boxes show. . No desktop except those coloured bars/boxes.
My work around solution is as follows:
If I purchase and plug in an external computer monitor ( is that what that plug is for at the back of the computer ) will the graphics ( desktop et al ) for her computer show up on the external monitor ???  Or do i have to buy/install a video card in her computer???
Your advice/comments please.

That is a decent diagnostic routine if you can borrow--not buy--an external monitor. If the image on the external is normal, it indicates that the iMac's display and/or its cabling is defective but thr logic board, which includes the video hardware--is unaffected. Only then is the workabout worthwhile.
If the external monitor also has the artifacts, the video hardware has failed.
That iMac model (iMac 17-inch Early 2006) is one of the first intel iMacs and does not have a separate video card (her video hardware is soldered to and integral with the logic board). For that iMac, a new logic bord is required to fix video failures. My son recently got an estimate on a new LB for a 2008 iMac 24 and it was over US$700.
As her computer can run no higher than Mac OS 10.6.8 and we are at 10.9.2 now, I don't think repairing this one would be cost effective. Consider that you can get an Apple refurb iMac directly from Apple for around US$1050:

    when i use the apple tv it puts my computer to sleep.  the last time this happened i lost microsoft word with all the documents.  i'm asked to relaunch, but that step fails.  i'm frantic!  can anyone help me see my documents again? this also prevents me from reading attachments in my mail, since they are frequently launched in word.

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • Need Help to see why the performance is not good

    Hi,
    We have an application that all process are developed in PL/SQL on Oracle 9i Database :
    Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.6.0 - 64bit Production
    PL/SQL Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production
    Why I have created this package. the application is a production management on chemical industries. I need to sometimes trace the Manufacturing order execution to eventually answer some incoherent data. If I analyze directly the data in the Table is not always responding because the origin of problem can be provide of some execution that perform some calculation.
    In the procedure or function a use my package PAC_LOG_ERROR.PUT_LINE(xxxxxx) to save the information. This command save the information in the memory before. At the end of the procedure or function a perform the insert with the COMMIT calling PAC_LOG_ERROR.LOGS or PAC_LOG_ERROR.ERRORS on the catch exception.
    This package is always call. On each routines performed I execute it. In the trace log of the database we have see a problem we the procedure GET_PROC_NAME in the package. We have identify that is called more that 800x and increase the performance. Who increase is this select command :
        SELECT * INTO SOURCE_TEXT
        FROM (SELECT TEXT FROM all_source
            WHERE OWNER = SOURCE_OWNER AND
                  NAME=SOURCE_NAME AND
                  TYPE IN ('PROCEDURE','FUNCTION','PACKAGE BODY') AND
                  LINE <= SOURCE_LINE AND SUBSTR(TRIM(TEXT),1,9) IN ('PROCEDURE','FUNCTION ')
            ORDER BY LINE DESC)
        WHERE ROWNUM = 1;I use it to get the procedure or function name where my log proc is called. I now that I can pass in parameters, but I have think to use an automatic method, that can help to not have some problem with others developer team to make a copy/past and not update the parameters. Because the Log info is read by the Help Desk and if we have an error on the information, it not a good help.
    COULD YOU PLEASE HELP ME TO OPTIMIZE OR SAID THE BETTER METHOD TO DO IT ?
    Here my package :

    This package is always call. On each routines performed I execute it. In the trace log of the database we have see a problem we the procedure GET_PROC_NAME in the package. We have identify that is called more that 800x and increase the performance. Who increase is this select command :
        SELECT * INTO SOURCE_TEXT
        FROM (SELECT TEXT FROM all_source
            WHERE OWNER = SOURCE_OWNER AND
                  NAME=SOURCE_NAME AND
                  TYPE IN ('PROCEDURE','FUNCTION','PACKAGE BODY') AND
                  LINE <= SOURCE_LINE AND SUBSTR(TRIM(TEXT),1,9) IN ('PROCEDURE','FUNCTION ')
            ORDER BY LINE DESC)
        WHERE ROWNUM = 1;Complex SQL like inline views and views of views can overwhelm the cost-based optimizer resulting in bad execution plans. Start with getting an execution plan of your problem query to see if it is inefficient - look for full table scans in particular. You might bet better performance by eliminating the IN and merging the results of 3 queries with a UNION.

  • I downloaded a toolbar expecting certain help, not seeing the help I wanted I uninstalled the prouduct, why would I still have the toolbar ready and waiting for me to use after i have uninstalled it

    Dear Firefox
    I have just sent mail to a friend and found that the HTML backgrooung file is inactive amongst mant others, am sure I used it just yesterday.
    I tried to regain this file and I was directed to download the toolbar from BrotherSoft Extreme Community and did not see any direction to what I was loking for other than it piling my already weak XP PC with more toolbars, so I immeadiatly uninstalled it.
    It's still here, so does this mean it has other guises for me to find.
    Please help me with this.
    Thank You

    Here, let me explain the way you use the word "crap" in a sentence like this, especially when I'm asking for help from a total stranger such as yourself. It's rude, obviously I know now not to do something like download something like that to my computer. It's not the difficult to figure out, and obviously I'm suffering the consequences for it now. So are you planning on helping me? Or should I not reply to your next reply if it has the word "crap" in it? I'm sure this whole discussion board was created to be used in a professional way, which is how I would like to keep my responses.

  • Help with seeing content of my pre-order of iPhone 6 Plus 128 GB silver--so that I can print it out

    I pre-ordered a silver 128 GB iPhone 6 Plus in the wee hours of the a.m.
    9/12/14. The verizon pre-order website wasn't working (nor was apple's) but
    eventually I spoke with a verizon rep who took my pre-order including
    credit card info.  I did accept the terms, etc.  She said she could not
    send a confirmation email but would text me a confirmation number. Message
    was " VZW Order/Tracking Info: Order number: (sixteen digit number). Thank
    you." But I could not track/find my order that way.  Spoke with another
    verizon rep yesterday who told me that was not the actual order
    number--that I needed an order number and location number. He was able to
    go into my account and get me those two numbers and texted them to me. He
    could see my order, but I cannot. All the website gives me is the order
    number and an empty field for "Tracking number." I would like to be able to
    see the actual order--phone ordered, delivery/shipping date/shipping
    address. Every other vender send email confirmations of what was ordered.
    Why can't I get one? Please help! (Has anyone else had this experience?)

    I've been playing around with this, trying to find the source of the problem. I think that the problem happens initially when an Administrator tries to create a blog for him/herself. I don't know javascript, but I can see there are separate cases for when a regular user creates a blog and an Admin creates a blog, towards the end of the file: /usr/share/collaboration/javascript/userwebloglisting.js
    What would be happening by an Admin creating a blog for him/herself that improperly sets permissions so that it never appears in the blog listing?

  • Example to help me see the steps in extracting data from IDES R3 to BW?

    Hello folks,
    I have some documents on extraction but I have not been able to step through successfully.
    Can you step me through the process with a simple example:
    1. identify an object(table?) on R3; provide typical tcode to see the data in this source
    2. steps see the data in this R3 table
    3. steps to create an extractor to pull the data we saw in step 2.
    4. Steps to go through so that I can see this data in BW
    I will appreciate a real example which will help clarify some difficulties I have in extracting data from R3 to BW.
    Thanks

    1. To see data in the extractor, activate the data sources first and then execute RSA3. For LO extractors, in addition to activating the data sources, fill the set up tables and set the delta process and then execute RSA3.
    2. To view data in source tables, you must know the source tables. The best way to find out the source table from where the extractor picks up data, go to help;sap.com - BI content. In the help pages, you will find the source tablles. Once you get the source tables, go to Se16, type the table name and execute. You wil see the data.
    3. If you wish to create extractor from the source table, go to RSO2 ( O as orange), choose which data source you wish to create ( master data, texts, hierarchies, transaction data). The steps are explained in the following document. Pl follow the link:
    https://websmp206.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000194044&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202
    Or send me a note to my email and I can send this document to you.

  • HELP: Cannot See Child Node Values.

    I'm trying to print out child node values from following code, I can print child node name but cannot see child node values. Can somebody help me t o figure out this problem
    FOR childelement in 0..lengthchild-1
    LOOP
    IF childelement = 0 THEN
    kounter := kounter + 1; END IF;
    chnode := xmldom.item(childnodelist,childelement);
    v_childnode := xmldom.getNodeName(chNode);
    dbms_output.put_line('Child Node Name : '&#0124; &#0124;v_childnode);
    IF (v_childnode) is not null THEN
    chnodevalue := xmldom.getNodeValue(chnode);
    dbms_output.put_line('Child Value Is :'&#0124; &#0124;chnodevalue);
    ELSE
    dbms_output.put_line('Child Value Is NULL');
    chnodevalue:= null;
    END IF;
    End Loop;

    if you don't see any of the key values..
    and you know exactly what you are doing..
    you can create the registry keys and values.
    But make sure you know exactly what you are doing; adding and changing registry keys, might end up with a corrupt operating system.
    Please try the settings on a virtual environment, before applying to the production.
    If anything mess up with changing the registry you got your back covered, but if you're brave enough do it on the production server without doing the test on a VM. 
    Every second counts..make use of it. Disclaimer: This posting is provided AS IS with no warranties or guarantees and confers no rights.

  • HELP -- Not seeing comments

    I'm running Acrobat 8.1.2 on a G5 1.8 Dual with OS 10.4.11. I have Enfocus PitStop Professional 7.22 installed.
    When I add comments or open a file with comments, I do not see them displayed. They are in the comments list; and if I summarize comments, I see them in the summary pdf/printout. It's almost as if I have something switched off, but I can't find it. It's possible this is related to PitStop install, since that's what's unique on this machine. Other machines display the comments just fine.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    In RoboHelp 7 tables were created using inline styles. Things changed in RoboHelp 8 when CSS driven tables were introduced. You can use one of the supplied styles, you can edit one of them to create your own style or you can create a new one. There is some more information about this in the RoboHelp Tour on my site.
    Once you have a style set up, you can change your existing inline tables to CSS driven tables. Right click in a table and select Table Styles. You will then get a dialog enabling you to pick a table. Tick the box to clear the old inline styling. Note that you will need to reapply any table / column widths. They will look good in the Design Editor but not in a browser.
    I suggest you make a copy of the project and play around with that until you have got things working as you want.

  • Warning this is very long code but i need help to see if I am on right trac

    I have done all the following code myself and it is the buisiness layer for my application. I have tried to follow recommendations on previous posts and I would like to be told where I can clean up my code and how? This is not complete and it looks very long to me but I need help in order to be better. There are 4 button vlivks and I have not completed them all. The criteria for application is that phonebook will accept new entries if they have names surnames and phone numbers that are not longer than 10 characters for display purposes but can change this. No duplicates are allowed. No editing of a existing entry must lead to a duplicate entry either. No new entry or edit may result in a new contact having no phone numbers.

              return list;
    }

    Should I start over from scratch? Can I get help with links to tutorials on following? How to create a java CRUD application (google not useful) and how to layer in java(google not useful)
    This is my pres layer as is is this wrong too?

  • Need help to see if I can use 2 different Ipods on same computer....

    I recently updated from my Ipod shuffel to a Nano. The software automatically updated my computer when I pluged in the new one, but I have given my son my shuffle and have not been able to get it to work on my home computer, can I update his on my computer that I use for my nano?

    The ca-55 was the only adaptor to convert a car-k91 to pop port, you can not change it to another type of connector, you will have to buy a new kit.

  • I NEED FLASH HELP/ NOT SEEING SOME SITES

    I have a dell computer with a ati2400 video card. I
    have three browsers, IE7, firefox3.0, k-meleon. I had Opera,but had
    to unistall it because it would play only 80% of the flash videos
    yet fiefox and k-meleon played them all I installed k-meleon after
    uninstalling opera. I installed flash player 10.0123 for mozilla
    browsers on saturday and everything was fine. Today I found that
    all my browsers would only show about 85% of flash videos. I'm
    freaking out because IE7 is a different flash plugin than firefox.
    This is what i found when I scanned flash players. I have the
    upgrade plugin for mozilla browsers 10.0,0.12, then I have two
    flash plugins 9.0.124, one flash player Helper 9.0.115, and two
    NPSWF32_FLASHUTIL.
    I am at a loss when it comes to flash players. I upgrade
    when I get a notice, but I know your not supposed to have more than
    one player for mozilla browsers and one for microsoft browsers?
    Right? Is this why now i have the same problem as i did with my
    opera browser? I tried a system restore to before the flash upgrade
    10.012 was installed and nothing changed, i still had the same
    problem. HELP, What gets uninstalled, what stays and will this take
    care of my flash problems? I spent months with the Opera problem
    and read on opera and firefox forums people who had flash problems
    say they uninstalled and reinstalled flash and no change. Sorry
    about the long post, I'm very sick and this is the best i can
    do.

    Hi. The actionscript is from a Flash Mask Effect template
    that I was asked to make image and text changes to. I don't know
    what the repetitive aa and bb does. The clip works well except that
    I can not get it to Stop after the last image, it just keep going
    and going...
    Thanks.
