Help - what is wrong with my iMac ?

Hello
I'd really appreciate some help and advice with by iMac !
I'm having a really strange issue and I've no idea whats casuing it.
After using it for a while whichever window is open starts to black out - you can shut the window down but it remains there - if you click you mouse onto the screen you can pull a square out and it reveals the desktop wall paper underneath !
You cant force quit the open screens, the only way to stop it is to restart.
I have posted some photos for you to see - I hope someone can help !

thanks

thanks for replying
unfortunatle I blew the dust out of the vents before running temperature monitor so I can only say what the temps are now !
Ambient 16c
CPU A heatsink 31c
Graphics processor chip 1 41c
Graphics processor heatsink 1 41c
Graphics Processor temp diode 45c
Power supply 54c
Just to state again I blew a heck of a lot of dust out (with a compressor) - really amazed at how much there was
I probably blew too hard though as some dust has gone behind the screen but luckily you cant see it when the screen is on..
thanks

What's wrong with my iMac G3?

What's wrong with my iMac G3?
Ok. I'm going to attempt to be as thorough as possible on this one. When I first got my iMac G3, it was stated to be non working. I got it from freecycle. The lady who provided my with the machine said that "one day it just wouldn't turn on". So, I still took it home. After I set it up, it turned on and booted into Mac OS 8.6 no problem. After about two days of using it, I turned it on again and it said something about "finder could not be started because draglib-setdragimage (or something like that) could not be found." It gave me a restart button, which I clicked. After about a day of messing around with it, I found that holding the shift key to disable extensions would allow it to boot properly. I decided to re-install 8.6. However, the cd was not recognized (perhaps because it was an ISO, not DMG). So, I proceeded to install panther. The first time it booted with the panther cd (and ever since), there has been no startup chime. It also will only get to the apple logo, without the spinning thing, where it freezes. Only the button on the keyboard works to start it up. And, occasionally it will boot into open firmware. I don't know what to do from here. I can still boot into os 8.6 with extensions off.
Help?
Thanks so much in advance,
-Don

And, occasionally it will boot into open firmware.
Seems odd to me. All by itself? Did you press any keys?
I don't know what to do from here. I can still boot into os 8.6 with extensions off.
Most likely, you have a bad extension. They are in a folder called extensions What you need to do is create a new folder and move extensions to this folder. Move extensions to the folder in groups. try 1/2 first. Move back & forth between folders. See which extension is causing the problem. command + n to create a new folder
verify that you have the correct firmware.
Figuring out what level of firmware you have?
1) Mac OS 9.x or 8.x, you need to use the Apple System Profiler.
Apple -> Apple System Profiler
2) Mac OS X, use the System Profiler.
Apple -> About This Mac
click on the More Info... tab
click on Hardware
read the Boot ROM Version
3) Open Firmware, boot into Open Firmware.
Power on your iMac while holding down commandoption+of
The first output line contains the firmware level. Mine reads:

The 4.1.9f1 will be different on a 333 machine.

Help - What is wrong with my code ?

I have a cfform that does a db search, using a field and a
search criteria selected by the user. Here is my code :
<tr>
<td align="center" colspan="2">
<font size="3" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
color="003366">
<b>Pick Request
Number: </b></font>
<input type="text" name="prNumber">
<select name="search_type">
<option value="Contains">Contains</option>
<option value="Begins With">Begins With</option>
<option value="Ends With">Ends With</option>
<option value="Is">Is</option>
<option value="Is Not">Is Not</option>
<option value="Before">Before</option>
<option value="After">After</option>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
Here is the query that I am using :
<cfquery name="getPRNum" datasource="docuTrack">
SELECT prNumber, fileName
FROM dbo.psFileInventory
<cfif form.search_type is "Contains">
Where dbo.psFileInventory.prNumber like '%#form.prNumber#%'
</cfif>
<cfif form.search_type is "Begins With">
Where dbo.psFileInventory.prNumber like '#form.prNumber#%'
</cfif>
<cfif form.search_type is "Ends With">
Where dbo.psFileInventory.prNumber like '%#form.prNumber#'
</cfif>
<cfif form.search_type is "Is">
Where dbo.psFileInventory.prNumber = '#form.prNumber#'
</cfif>
<cfif form.search_type is "Is Not">
Where dbo.psFileInventory.prNumber <>
'#form.prNumber#'
</cfif>
<cfif form.search_type is "Before">
Where dbo.psFileInventory.prNumber <= '#form.prNumber#'
</cfif>
<cfif form.search_type is "After">
Where dbo.psFileInventory.prNumber >= '#form.prNumber#'
</cfif>
</cfquery>
It cannot find any records with any of the search criteria
except for the = sign. However, when I do each criteria
individually, it works. For example, lif I enter 'PR8' in the form,
then like '#form.prNumber#%' in the query will give me all part
numbers that begin with PR8...etc, so I am pretty sure each of the
search criteria work.
But when I run it combined, it cannot find anything except
for the 'is' (=) criteria.
Can somebody please tell me what I am doing wrong ? I just
cannot see it.
Thanks

quote:
...but wouldn't the query be in the action page ?
I'm not quite sure what you are asking here. Are
you asking if you have to run the query again in the action page?
If that is the question, then the answer is no, because that is why
I have you assign the query results on your query page
to a session variable so that you can make it available to
use just like you would the results of a cfquery on your action
page. In other words, if you did something like this
<cfset session.getPRNum_qry = getPRNum> on your query
page, you can do something like this on your action page...
<cfif IsDefined("session.getPRNum_qry.prNumber")>
<cfoutput query = "session.getPRNum_qry">
#prNumber# #fileName#
</cfoutput>
</cfif>
... which would loop through your "query" and display your
prNumber and fileName values for all rows returned. What you do
with them is up to you.....

Help, what's wrong with my upload function

Hi,
I want to write a java Bean (FileUploadBean) to upload the image files. I use a very simple txt file to test my Bean code, I've already know the syntax of the entity body of httpServletRequest object, it's like below:
"-----------------------------7d327203032e
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="toefl_form"; filename="C:\transfer\Picasso_ljm\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1\webapps\junmin\image\test.txt"
Content-Type: text/plain
hi, this is a test;
-----------------------------7d327203032e--
My original test.txt file is only a line without '\r', '\n'.
"hi, this is a test."
But after call my upload function, the saved file is:
hi, this is a test.
There are 4 more bytes than the original file. Below is my FileUploadBean file, does anyone can figure out what's wrong in my upload function? Does the readLine read the return carriage and new line charactor too? Thank you very much!

HI,
I find a bug myself. I add a line "i = in.read(line, 0, 256);" in doUpload function in the following position:
String boundary = new String(line, 0, boundaryLength); //-2 discards the newline character
i = in.read(line, 0, 256);
String newLine = new String(line, 0, i);
But still, when I was trying to read a image file, it even didn't finish reading and quit already! Still has bugs, need help!

What's wrong with my iMac screen?

It just happened this morning when I woke up, this iMac is only few months old. And I did nothing last night, just edited some photos and watch The Walking Dead with VLC app as usual. Then I fell asleep and these lines just came up in the morning. What is this, is there anything I can do to fix this without bringing it to apple service? If I have to bring it to apple service, is it covered by the warranty?
Please help.
Thank you.

If your 90 day free AppleCare telephone support hasn't expired or you have purchase AppleCare then give them a call. If you don't have AppleCare (HIGHLY recommended) then you will need to schlep the machine into an Apple Store to have it looked at by a professional, it is covered by the 1 year warranty. The lines our describing are not visible in your screen shoot so I'll assume they are very fine.
Before you do anything though do some basics such as restarting the machine and resetting the PRAM.

I need Help what is wrong with my code?

Hi, well I am doing a class and a driver for a sphere. I need to compute the volume and surface area of the sphere I have the formula but when I run the program I don't get a result for neither. I would like to know what am I doing wrong? Here is my code. Thanks.
This is my class
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
    public class Sphere
   //Variable Declarations.
      private int diameter;
      private double radius;
   //Constructor: Accepts and initialize instance data.
       public Sphere(int sp_diameter)
         diameter = sp_diameter;
   //Set methods: Diameter
       public void setDiameter(int new_diameter)
         diameter = new_diameter;
   //Get methods: Diameter
       public int getDiameter()
         return diameter;
   //Compute volume and surface area of the sphere
       public double getVolume()
         return 4 * Math.PI * radius * radius * radius / 3;
       public double getArea()
         return 4 * Math.PI * radius * radius;
   //toString method will return one line description of the sphere
       public String toString()
         DecimalFormat fmt =new DecimalFormat("0.###");
         String sphere = " " + fmt.format(diameter) +fmt.format(getVolume()) + fmt.format(getArea());
         return sphere;
Here is the driver
public static void main(String[]args)
         Sphere sphere1, sphere2, sphere3;
         sphere1 = new Sphere(10);
         sphere2 = new Sphere(12);
         sphere3 = new Sphere(20);
         System.out.println("The sphere diameter are: ");
         System.out.println("\tFirst Sphere diameter is: " + sphere1);
         System.out.println("\tSecond Sphere diameter is: " + sphere2);
         System.out.println("\tThird Sphere diameter is: " + sphere3);
      //Prints the Sphere Volume and Surface Area.
         System.out.println("\nTheir Volume and Surface Area: ");
         System.out.println("\tSphere1: " + " " + sphere1.getVolume() + " " + sphere1.getArea());
         System.out.println("\tSphere2: " + " " + sphere2.getVolume() + " " + sphere2.getArea());
         System.out.println("\tSphere3: " + " " + sphere3.getVolume() + " " + sphere3.getArea());
      //Change the diameter of the sphere.
         sphere1.setDiameter(11);
         sphere2.setDiameter(15);
         sphere3.setDiameter(25);
         System.out.println("\nNew diameter is: ");
         System.out.println("\tFirst Sphere diameter is: " + sphere1);
         System.out.println("\tSecond Sphere diameter is: " + sphere2);
         System.out.println("\tThird Sphere diameter is: " + sphere3);
      //Prints the Sphere Volume and Surface Area.
         System.out.println("\nTheir Volume and Surface Area: ");
         System.out.println("\tSphere1: " + " " + sphere1.getVolume() + " " + sphere1.getArea());
         System.out.println("\tSphere2: " + " " + sphere2.getVolume() + " " + sphere2.getArea());
         System.out.println("\tSphere3: " + " " + sphere3.getVolume() + " " + sphere3.getArea());
      //Using the toString Method.
         System.out.println("\nFirst sphere: " + sphere1);
   }

Maybe try a different constructor for sphere...
public Sphere(int sp_diameter, int sp_radius)
diameter = sp_diameter;
}nd maybe even a setRadius(int newRadius) and
getRadius().
Hope that helpsYou should not do it this way. The reason.. The radius is 1/2 the diameter. if you have seperate methods, then the programmer can set the diameter to X and the radius to 10X. not good.
A better way for the c'tor would be:
    //Constructor: Accepts and initialize instance data.
    public Sphere(int sp_diameter) {
        diameter = sp_diameter;
        radius = (double) diameter/2.0; //<-- I added this
    }something similar in the setDiameter..

What's wrong with my iMac??

I recently downloaded Mountain Lion on my late 2009 iMac. Now it is incredibly slow! I have heard that it may have something to do with the age of my computer and not being able to handle the load. Is this the case and how do I fix it? I love the new features of Mountain Lion but can stand the speed. (I had Snow Leopard before the upgrade.)

Screen shot below is from This Page Did you upgrade to SL V10.6.8 prior to upgrading to ML.

Then I installed my Develper6.0 in the second NT4.0 machine. I

I've managed to install the wizard. I've started Oracle

at the end you find the server configuration wizard. You can
install him seperately.

What's wrong with my Macbook Air?

Yesterday I was using it and everything seemed to be working perfectly. I turned it off and when I tried turning it back on, it got stuck on the grey screen with the apple at the beginning and didn't do anything else. I tried pressing shift while I turned it on and it finally worked. Now, it's being really weird, it's showing me a message saying 'Shockwave Flash has crashed' when I try loading a site on the internet, also, my Volume buttons are not working, they seem to be locked and if I turn it off and back on again, it takes forever to load.
Help what's wrong with it?

Try booting to your Recovery Partion, by holding down the OPTION key while booting, and then select the Recovery Partion. Run Disk Utility from there, and Repair your Permissions, then Verify Disk. If Verify Disk finds reason to do so, run Repair Disk.
Shutdown, and see if it boots normally. If not, boot using the SHIFT key again (Safe Mode). From Safe Mode, update your Flash drom Adobe's site. Retry a normal boot.

I need help figuring out what is wrong with my Macbook Pro

I have a mid 2012 Macbook Pro with OS X Mavericks on it and for the past few weeks it has running VERY SLOW! I have no idea what is wrong with it, i have read other discussion forums trying to figure it out on my own. So far i have had no luck in fixing the slowness. When i open applications the icon will bounce in dock forever before opening and then my computer will freeze with the little rainbow wheel circling and circling for a few minutes... and if i try to browse websites it take forever for them to load or youtube will just stop working for me. Everything i do, no matter what i click, the rainbow wheel will pop up! The only thing i can think of messing it up was a friend of mine plugging in a flash drive a few weeks ago to take some videos and imovie to put on his Macbook Pro, he has said his laptop has been running fine though... so idk if that was the problem. Anyways, could someone please help me try something? Thank you!!

What is wrong with my font? Squares instead of letters - Help!

Can someone tell me what is wrong with my system font? Everytime I need to put my administrator key the login page will appear but with weird glitched font of squared A's all around (see picture). I can't recall that I have done any installations that would mess with it.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Bart

You have a bad System Font.
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
Once Disk Reports OK, reinstall the OS.

I don't know what's wrong with my 3GS. It only shows the black screen with white apple. Turning it on then off doesn't help.

I don't know what's wrong with my 3GS. It only shows the black screen with white apple. Home button and turning the phone off then on doesn't seem to do anything.

Thanks Lucas,
I've tried doing that with no results. Same screen keeps showing. Maybe it'd be more helpful if I told you a bit more info. My phone was randomly playing music, and the voice control would also suddenly start without me touching the phone. Then I let the battery die and started to recharge when on the screen it indicated to plug into my computer/iTunes, I tried to restore but was getting an error message (can't remember what it said now). Battery died and now my current issue of the black screen with white apple. I'd love to be able to restore my phone but now its not showing as a device on my iTunes. HELP! Any other suggestions?
