After I install OS X Mavericks, My display will intermittent shut off. Do I need to update my video card?

Check your settings for display sleep in System Preferences > Energy Saver.
And be careful if you contemplate changing your video card- Mavericks may not be compatible with a different video card.
What Mac do you have?

After I upgrade maverick my display will suddenly shut off but my sounds is still working. Need help

After I upgrade maverick my display will suddenly shut off but my sounds is still working. Need help on this? Thank you

Hello rodamitjr,
It sounds like your iMac display will turn off unexpectedly, but you can tell the computer is still on because you hear audio.
I found an article with steps to troubleshoot issues with displays. This article is for internal and external displays, so you can skip any steps referring to an external display. I recommend reviewing the full article, but this step specifically stands out to me for the issue you described:
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

My Apple TV is not mirroring my Macbook Pro after I installed OS X Mavericks

My Apple TV is not mirroring my Macbook Pro after I installed OX X Mavericks?

Installing Maverick does not change the hardware requirements.
Did it work prior to installing Maverick?
Does the device meet the hardware requirements?

MBP will not shut off or restart after installing lion.

MBP will not shut off or restart after installing lion. I tried installing the latest update but since it will not restart the update will not work.

Everything works except it will not shut down or restart so I can't update it.
I run the Adobe master creative suite collection, Microsoft office and countless other software products without a hitch.
After I click on update software then download the apple update for lion it says I have to restart the computer to finnish the install.

After installing iTunes and iPod, my computer will not turn off

I am running Windows XP, and have just installed my new iPod nano and iTunes. Now my computer will not turn off. When I select "Turn off computer" in the start menu, the computer goes through the usual process of shutting down -- then it restarts automatically every time! Once it has started up again, it sends an Error report to windows -- but they are not coming forward with a solution for this problem. It appears as a problem created by an "Unknown device driver". I now have to turn my computer off by the wall. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Try running the Combo update first ... OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo), and once it is successfully downloaded, then try to download 10.8.5.
Sometimes the combo will correct any minor glitches in the system and also ensure all necessary updates to that point are included.

HT204384 After I installed Os X Mavericks in my Macbook Pro, it stops readding the SD cards. I used diferent brands of cards and got all the updates for the Mac, but the problem wasn't solved.

Hi!
I made the update to Os X Mavericks and my MacBook Pro 13' is having some isues; the SD slot card is not readding the cards. Sometimes, when I have a couples of hours using the lap, when I open the finder or any file, there are only the name of the files, but not images and I can open then even if I selected. Then I need to restar the lap to open them.

Reset PRAM.
Shut it down all the way.
Holding the Cmd+Opt+P+R keys, press the power button
Listen for the "startup chime" to sound three times, and release the keys.

I am having trouble installing. downloaded Mavericks but it will not let me install to hard drive, says that is reserved for Time Machine. I have an external hard drive, but disconnected that before download.

I downloaded Mavericks but can't get past the install; it thinks my hard drive is reserved for Time Machine. I have an external hard drive but dis-connected that before download.
I have Time Machine turned off.

Check to see if you have a file name Backups.backupdb on the disk drive.
If the installer sees such a file it assumes that the disk drive is being used by Time Machine.

Why does "Pages" still ask me to save my document after having installed mac os x lion every time I shut down a document?

Please help me turn it off!

You need to update to Pages 4.1. If you haven't moved or renamed Pages then you'll be able to update Pages by running Software Update on your Mac. Or if you purchased Pages from the Mac App Store then you can launch the Store and click on Updates.

Acer-ICONIA-W3-810 will not shut off or sleep after installing Windows 10

It won’t sleep. The screen goes black but it’s not actually off as it’s actually still dimly lit (dark grey). Pressing the power button does the same thing. Therefore the battery dies quickly. It’s too bad because otherwise, W10 is pretty snappy on the device.

Solved it. When I update sto Windows 10, in device manager, it showed Basic display adapter. I downloaded the driver package from Acer and that fixed it. Now I see Intel display adapter and sleeop is working again.

After upgrading to Yosemite I had to upgrade iPhoto and now it says I need to update my photo library or it will be lost...HELP

After upgrading to Yosemite, I had to upgrade iPhoto. Now when I try to open iPhoto I get the following message:
The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version iPhoto.
Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete .
Question is...how do i upgrade the photo library?

You can't back up an open iPhoto...
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

You mean connecting the iPad to iTunes on your computer or when you launch the iTunes app on the iPad?

Completely shuts down? You mean the iPad actually turns off? That's what "shuts down" means to me. The device powers off.
You could try closing all apps in the recents tray and reboot the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot 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.

White Screen After Shutdown? Macbook will not shut off!

Hello All,
Hopefully someone can help me out, please! Just restarted my Macbook using solo safe because i was getting "the white screen of death." Thought I fried it after it encountered a little water spill...not the case. I got it up and running again...but my only issue is, when i shut down my Macbook...the screen and the apple logo behind it remains lit. It will continue to charge and when I want to power on will turn on. Any mystery to why the laptop won't fully shut down? We left it uncharged overnight thinking it was a fried logic board so could the low charge have something to do with it?

How much water and what did you do to dry it out?
Did you power up before it was dried out?

After Effects is NOT using the full Twelve GB of memory on my Mac Pro late 2013 dual video cards

I would like to know if there is a reason why AE CC12 and CC13 (2014) is not using the full amount of video card memory on my MP late 2013. It's six GB per freaking card I invested in and its not accessing it.
Is there a work around this issue?

Why shouldn't it. When I upgraded to this new Mac Pro late 2013 with its dual video cards. Premier turned into a blasting fast editor. I no longer need to render my edited cuts and the scrubbing of preview and timeline footage is phenomenal. The only performance boost I've seen in AE with this new system is in rendering and I can't even say its double as fast in comparison to Premier or Encoder and its an 8-Core system with 32GB of ram. Everything else is flying.
So again to answer your why should it. I rebuttal with "Why shouldn't it". The other two mentioned programs are using GPU resources to improve performance why is AE so behind the curve.
I'm not the only one asking why. I was in the audience at a Dmala meeting here in LA with Todd Kopriva and Al Mooney previewing AE and Premier 2014.
People kept asking Todd about performance boost in between questions about new features. Todd finally just asked what do you prefer a couple of new features or performance boost. Everyone wanted performance boost over new features. If you think I'm making this up go ask Todd Kopriva.
