How to fix flickering rectangular pixel boxes?

I'm getting random flickering rectangular pixel boxes – they come and go. is anyone else having these problems?
iPad is brand new out of the box, haven't dropped it or anything, and I've installed the latest software and even tried a complete restore. no dice.
Here they can be seen on the left side of the screen:
and here they are scattered throughout...

Ended up swapping iPads at the Apple Store

How to fix flickering in actionscript?

I have a problem making my FLASH working seamlessly. When you
put the mouse over the buttons (movie clips) then they are
flickering. Do you know how to fix that? I want everything to work
smooth and slow, without flickering and flashing in the eyes. I
used only this script:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay ("1");
on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay ("2");
Link
to that example
FLA
source
If you put the mouse in the middle of the button (there are 4
of them there) it starts flickering. Why? How to fix that?
Thanks in advance,
Alex

Alex,
It's flcikering because you're trying to use a timeline tween
to control it. You can achieve a better result using Actionscript.
Bin your timeline for each movieclip and leave just the first
frame.
Now replace your code with this
on(rollOver){
onEnterFrame = function()
if(this._xscale < 200)
this._xscale = this._xscale+10
this._yscale = this._yscale+10
on (rollOut) {
onEnterFrame = function()
if(this._xscale > 100)
this._xscale = this._xscale-5
this._yscale = this._yscale-5
on (release) {
getURL ("
http://www.flashfridge.com",
_self);
You may need to reposition your buttons on the stage and
change their registration points...I think it works best if you
place the centre of the top image at 0,0.
The benefit is that it won't "jump" if you re-roll over.
You may want to play with the scaling (I choose 200%) and the
rate of growth/decay (10 and 5)
Hope this helps!

How to fix a ded pixel?

I would appreciate any guidance.

Take it to Apple and ask them to check it out. They are the only ones that can give you the replacement that is necessary to fix the dead pixel.

How to fix stuck/dead pixel on my iPad 2

I just got an iPad 2 and I found out that there is a stuck/dead pixel on the screen. I thought that I could ignore it at the beginning but it just gets too annoying and it grabs my eye when doing anything. So I need to fix it. But first I need to know is it dead or stuck.
On some colors it appeared in two different colors, it changes each time I look at it from different position.
So on white : blue and red
On black : it does not appear
On purple : red and blue
On red : blue and red (so it does not appear)
On blue : black and blue
I hope I gave enough information. Waiting for your help...
P.S. I entered on YouTube and saw a video called stuck pixel fixer or something like that and I opened it for like three minutes each day for about three days now, and it did not fix it, do I need to play it for a specific time? Or do I need something else?

there is an app (cant remeber the name sorry) but it it basical flix up soild images of colour (red,blue,yellow ect...) and it did it at a speed to try and shake the pixel into working agian, sorry i cant remember the name....but its sumit like screen cleaner or sumit like that.

How to fix a stuck pixel on IPad 4

I just recently got my IPad 4 gen and have only had it for a couple days. My first impressions are this thing is amazing!!!! But after a couple days I've noticed a stuck pixel in the center of my screen... Is there a way to fix this or do I have to drive across town to the apple store to see if they can help? Hopefully I can do this alone cause I just bought this and I'm a bit low on cash now...

Your product is still under warranty, so the repair won't cost you anything.

How to set a fixed width for a box

Hi there,
Struggling here.... must admit.
I need a solution whereby I can set a fixed width for a box that is grouping two buttons. I suppose generally, I want to know how to set a fixed width for anything element.
See the picture below. I want the two buttons to stay the same distance apart, and I want the grouped buttons to stay the same distance from the right edge of the window, even as a user resizes the window.
This is what happens when you reduce the size of the window .....
I would like to stop this from happening.
I can't figure out how accomplish keeping the parent div a fixed width, and a fixed position from the right side of the window, so the buttons won't overlap.
Perhaps I'm doing the whole thing wrong.
I mean, is there a way to accomplish this without grouping the buttons? That is, make the buttons fixed width, fixed distance apart from each other, and fixed distance from the right side of the window, even as the user resizes the page?
I am trying to accomplish this using the Min/Max width settings, but given that there are so many different units to choose from, and the fact that when I place a button or box on the screen, it seems to be creating that button or box with a percentage-based width, I don't know how many pixels to set it to.... sigh....
Many thanks in advance for your help.
Sam

Okay after much futzing I figured out at least part of the solution I need, but if someone knows of a more efficent way to do this please let me know.
I set a fixed minimum width in pixels for both of the buttons at 156px.
I then made the left button float left and the right button float right.
I then made the parent div for the buttons float right.
That made the buttons stay the same size.
The only thing I need to figure out how to do now is make the parent div stay a consistent distance in pixels from the right. I tried setting a right margin but that didn't work. As you size the window down, the div gets closer to the edge, until it passes it.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.

* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

This may be a basic question... but in InDesign, how does one determine the pixel size of a text box? Specifically, we need to write text to specifications of 600 pixel width, and have no idea a) how to scale a text box to specific pixel width, b) how to determine what word count we can fit in, and c) how to do it in a table? Thanks!

Set your ruler increments to pixels Preferences>Units & Increments. You can fill the text box with placeholder text Type>Fill with Placeholder text and get a word count from the Info panel with Show Options turned on from the flyout.
From the Transform panel you can set a text box's width and height

HT203477 My clips don't appear. They appear as blue boxes. Any ideas how to fix this?

My clips don't appear. They appear as blue boxes.
I have to click through them to reveal them each time I need to do an edit... which slows up the process on a big edit right now.
Any ideas how to fix this?
With thanks,
Steve

I may have solved my own issue. I clicked on one of my clips (or you can click on all your clips for that matter) in the event browser, opened the inspector tab and clicked on the 'Info' tab, then the 'settings' drop down at the bottom of the inspector window. I then clicked on 'apply custom name' and then clicked 'original name from camera'.
So far all my thumbnails are visible and I've been working for 1hr since my last post with no thumbnails going BLUE on me. They are all still visible. Give it a try and let me know if it works for you.
Best Regards.

Boot from your installer disc. If the problem is still present, then take it in for service.

Vertical faded pink lines and pixelated fonts in the Menu, how to fix?

Hi there,
I bought my iMac in Jan 2010, and just after my Apple Care expired three years later I started to have some problems I have no idea how to fix, hope someone can help.
When starting the computer, I get either a grey screen (I cannot go further or see anything else), or after starting the computer, seems like only the screensaver works, and if you try to open any menu, you'll get a black screen.
All this happened right after the last update.
I followed all the steps advised by Apple to fix the grey screen, but none of them worked.
I also formatted the hard drive (I was using 10.8) and installed other OS (10.6).
It worked well, except that I got now time vertical faded pink lines right after starting the computer, and the fonts in the menu looks like pixelated, they're not clear. but it only happens with the menu, Safari and other programs look fine.
Any idea what's going on?

This looks as though you may have a failing GPU.
You can try these resets that may help, but it looks like a hardware failure.
You may want to take it in to an Apple store genius bay, they will diagnose it for free and give you your options.
