Horizontal band across screen

My iPod Nano has developed a horizontal band (about 3/4") across the bottom of the screen that blocks out the settings text. Any ideas on how to overcome this?

Other than it it needs service (as it's still under warranty).

  • Thin Horizontal Line Across Screen

    I've had them before and they disappeared spontaneosly. The latest one seems to want to hang around. Any idea how to get rid of it?

    This is a followup to my post earlier today. A web search on "Thin Horizontal Line Across Screen" turned up this article:
    http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/post24947-5.html
    Sure enough, my horizontal line came back. I decided to follow the advice in the linked article. I didn't even have to twist the monitor. I barely tapped the screen as I was reaching up to twist the panel, and the line disappeared. This suggests to me that the problem is a loose internal connection between the driver circuitry and the panel.

  • Black horizontal bands across top & bottom of photos using a full frame camera

    I'm using a full frame camera with a 17-35mm lens.  When I import my photos to iPhoto they appear with a black horizontal band across the top and bottom of the photos.  Is this normal?

    What camera are you using?
    Where are you seeing these black bands? in the iPhoto library event view or somewhere else?

  • IMac Display -- White band across screen

    I recently noticed a white band across the top half of my screen. The line is about 3-5 tall and runs the entire width of the screen. This is incredibly annoying. The so-called Genius at the Apple store said I would have to pay about $800 to replace the display, which is ridiculous. It is time that Apple match product quality with design quality or fix these problems.

    I have the same issue.. although it isn't terribly noticeable yet... It has crept up using this computer for a month. The computer has only been in use for 1-1/2 months. I have multiple band running width wise down the entire screen.

  • Horizontal band across bottom of screen 2 inches

    Hey guys,
    I was trying to fix my bros old powerbook g4 so that i could use it. Everything works, except the bottom two inches of the display is not working. Its usually grayish, but if i shake the screen or hit it, it will change and look like what its supposed to. Even if i shake it, the gray just goes away, if i try moving my mouse down there it disappears, and if i open an application, the bottom part doesnt get updated, it just stays the way it was unless i hit it again. For a few days i got it to work at a certain angle, but now its back to its normal self. Is it a loose connection, or a software problem, or what?
    Please give me suggestions.
    Thanks

  • Hp 2711x Monitor horizontal line across screen

    Monitor HP 2711x has a horizontal line about 2/3 the way down, completely across the screen about 1 pixel wide.   The line looks like a slice trough the current screen image to some kind of image behind the current open windows, but there is no such image behind.  Adjusting the screen resolution turns the screen black monentarily which sets the line's color to black when the screen reappears, but then the line changes to again look like a slice through the current window to some kind of false window behind.  Rotating the screen image does not rotate the line.  Adjusting the screen reolution does not alter the line.  Resetting the monitor to factory default does not alter the line.  Changing the PC providing input to the screen does not change the line.
    Latest HP driver is installed.  Monitor's serial number:[Personal Information Removed].  Any suggested fix, please?  Thank you.

  • Websites not displaying properly after reset - Strange horizontal bars across screen.

    Hi all,
    Recently AVG updated on my PC. I'm normally on the ball with things like this and always prevent the add ons self installing such as free search tools etc but this one slipped past me. The end result was that whenever I opened a new tab AVG had hijacked FF and I was presented with an AVG search page. Tried getting rid of it without success so reset FF.
    Since doing this some (not all) sites have display problems. The most affected seem to be Ebay and FB. What happens is after the page loads and I scroll down most of the page dissapears behind horizontal black and grey bars. It certainly wasnt like this prior to the reset so something has obviously gone afoot in settings but I could do with some help as to which settings need to be re tweaked. If it helps I can grab a screen shot of the problem and host it.
    In case its relevant I'm running Win 7 64bit ultimate.
    Many thanks, Chris

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    You need close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

  • IPhone 3G has horizontal line across screen

    Today my iPhone developed a line across the screen where the colour is inverted all the time. A restart and a reset have not fixed it. Anyone else had this? Any cure or do I need to send it back (again)?

    You will need to send it back or visit a local genius bar. They will do a restore on your phone before replacing it, I had this issue once. Good luck

  • Horizontal lines across screen on hp beats touchscreen laptop

    I bought this lap top less than 6 months ago.It is the HP special edition beats touch screen lap top.After owning it for about two weeks a green horizonal thn line apeared on my screen.I didn't drop it and the line wasn't really bothering me so I ignored it.Then a couple of weeks later I took it on a trip with me, in a padded laptop backpack. I got another hoiontal line.I am now up to five horizontal lines with a fiveish month old laptop.It has now become annoying and gets in the way when I'm trying to read things on the laptop.Is this a problem with the computer graphics or the screen?What can I do? 

    If you purchased your MBA from Apple you may  within 14 days from the date of purchase return the unit for an exchange or a refund.  I would seriously consider that option.

  • 560ti - Horizontal Lines Across Screen

    Hi all,
    I received a new PC today and when I set it up, there appears to be problems with the graphics card - there's a series of horizontal lines on the screen. Photos probably explain it better:
    http://imgur.com/a/o7MfN
    The system is running 2x MSI GeForce GTX 560Ti Twin Frozr II in SLI
    The computer also can't seem to recognise it has a 560ti installed at all - it was using a generic VGA adapter driver on first startup - just in case, I downloaded the latest software from NVIDIA, and they do not recognise the display being attached to an NVIDIA card.
    Full spec:
    i5-2500K Processor
    2x MSI GeForce GTX 560Ti Twin Frozr II OC 1024MB GDDR5 Graphics Cards in SLI

    I've tried both ports on the card and the same issue is there.
    Do you mean test both cards?
    I get no output from the 2nd card at all when they're in SLI.  I also can't get into the nvidia control panel to turn off SLI as the software doesn't recognise the GPU being an nvidia card.  I've tried physically disabling SLI (I removed the SLI bridge) but I still get no output from the 2nd card.
    Is this normal?  Or is there something else I have to do to test the other card?

    I mean what i've told you:

    do test each one VGA alone to isolate the issue.
    E.g. take out the second VGA from your computer and leave just 1 installed.
    Then see if the problem persist or not.
    Then take it out and replace it with the second VGA into the same PCI-E slot[use the 1st one close to the CPU socket]
    Then retest when using the second VGA alone.

  • Notebook dv7t. Red transparent horizontal lines across entire screen.

    I need to know if it's as bad as I suspect. 2-1/2 yr old notebook dv7t on Win 7, with 17.2" monitor. No error messages. Troubleshooting finds nothing. Never had any problems before. All day yesterday, Tuesday 8/19, rebooting and shutting down repeatedly without success. Today, nothing, no lines!. Gotta expect it to happen again. No update available for NVidia GeForce card. Can anyone please advise? Thank you. Sillenn

  • I have a black band across my screen is it broken

    I have got a black band across my screen on my I pad don't know how this has come is it an error or something, or is it broken.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • Is there any way I can get the pictures on my iPhone 5c to be the whole screen instead of with a black band across the top and bottom?

  • I have a straight horizontal line across my screen

    Hi Folks
    have a straight horizontal line across my screen. Can assist?

    Yes, move the screen slowly back and forth, if it changes, you have a damaged monitor feed cable
    Does it appear in all screens?
    Does it vanish from time to time?
    post a pic,   hook your AIr up to an external monitor, if its there, its GPU /logic problem
    if its gone, its as mentioned a bad monitor feed from the logic via the cable.
    perform SMC reset and re-verify
    SMC reset
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
    Contact Apple for an appt. for in shop diagnostics and likely repair.
