    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    They are probably dead pixels or a signal of damaged GPU. If you can, connect an external display and see if the issue appears here.
    In both cases, I suggest you to take it to an Apple Store or reseller. It doesn't look as a software issue, and your display or GPU have to be replaced

  • I've always wanted to obtain and have perfect resolutioned cover art for my albums. I have been and downloaded albums from the iTunes store, and they come with really great cover art. How can I get cover art as precise and clean as the albums have on ther

    My problem mainly concerns cover art.
    There have been times when I downloaded albums from the iTunes store to find its cover art it is absolutely beautiful, and is absolutely 100% un stretched. Whereas when I have gotten images for a specific album from Google Images it's terribly pixelated and totally disgusting.
    Is there a way for me to obtain cover art for my albums that is has clarity equal to the cover art on the iTunes store albums.
    Or will it basically boil down to I can only get that cover art by downloading my albums off the store?

    The old iTunes libraries do not restore any playlists or song counts.
    They should you if you do the roll back properly... Opening files from the Previous iTunes Libraries folder in Windows Explorer simply opens the current library. If you don't see the .itl file extension then don't give your copied and renamed file the extention or iTunes will create an empty library rather than using the renamed file.
    If you had a complete pre-problem backup of your library you could restore that. On the assumption that isn't possible I have a script called ExportImport that could in principle be adjusted to save the relevant data from a backup of the library database and then reimport that data into the current library. See this thread for details.

  • When I go to type a name or number from my contacts on my iPhone 4, next to the "To:" box, a picture that was previously in my photo library pops up, how can I get rid of this bug?

    Exactly how it sounds, my mother in law is having troubles with her iPhone. When she types anything into the "To:" box, this photo, previously in her photo library, pops up.

    Hello Rchrdrvr94,
    I would suggest 3 things here. First if you haven't already, Restart the iPhone with tis procedure from
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    If that does not resolve the issue, then I recommend closing all the apps.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    From the Home screen, click the Home button twice.
    Tap and hold on the app.
    When it starts to jiggle, tap the - to close it.
    Double-click the Home button and try opening the app again.
    And if that fails to resolve the issue, then I suggest backing up and restoring your iPhone with iTunes.

    All the best,

  • TS1702 After downloading iOS7, I have an app that won't open and won't delete.  How can I get rid of it?

    I have tried re-downloading, but don't believe the app is available as I cannot find it.

    Similar issue:
    Recently updated to ios7 and then updated some apps. A few of them have, theoretically, updated. I can only open them from the App Store by clicking open (where it used to say install and now it says open). However, the actual app on the home screens are shaded and say "Waiting..." as if they are still currently downloading. It has been two days. I tried installing a free app (as some have suggested), this did not work. I tried turning phone on and off. I cannot delete these apps form my phone because when you hold down to get the jiggly apps and then the little "x" to click to close/delete the app, these apps don't have the "x."
    Any thoughts/suggestions??

    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.

  • I keep getting a message at the top of my e-mails screen saying the nessage I am looking for has previously been moved or deleted. how do I get rid of it

    When I open Outlook to view my e-mails I get a message at the top which says--the e-mail I am looking for has been removed or deleted and shows a "Close" button. It is annoying more than anything else but I can't seem to get rid of it and I don't know where it is coming from.

    Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
    See Outlook support for help with that issue.

  • On my mac mini, the old 2.0.0.9 version is the default browser even though I downloaded v.3.16.19. How can I get rid of the old version once and for all?

    I would like to eliminate the old version completely, as it comes up automatically and I don't see a way of deleting it from the mac.

    I think the problem lays with Last.fm. I had the same exact problem as you. In your processes screen, end the task "lastfmhelper.exe" Last.fm still scrobbles. The tracks don't skip, although I notice there is still a bit of a lag in the first part of the song - but if you can deal with that, no skipping. I think you will have to end that task everytime you boot up your computer, or uninstall last.fm completely until they fix it; it is a bug in their software, as opposed to iTunes.

  • Iphone4 would not restore Error -50. I have tried to restore and it restored it to the point that it created after 5.0 was installed. How can I get it an older restore point from my backups and restore it on another computer? The phone has been wiped out.

    Iphone would not restore---- Error -50. I have tried to restore, and it restored it to the new point that it created after 5.0 was installed. How can I get it an older restore point from my backups and restore it on another computer? The phone has been wiped out. I can see earlier backups in my C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup folder. There are four subfolders in this address. I need my contacts, photos, and messages back. I know this is a common error but I can not figure it out. I have ran the other troublshoot items in the error steps for 13 and 14 like apple says. Is there a way to call apple and get a step by step of how to restore from another restore point? Does anybody have a solution????

    It tells you to go to Error 13 and 14 if you receive error (-50).
    Here is what I have tried...
    Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting. I have moved it around to different ports.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer. Didn't change anything.
    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts. Removed all virus protection and firewall.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.Used the Microsoft fix it.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online. Doesn't matter.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network. I do not know how to do this or how to find the correct/full/complete restore point. There should be more information for this.

  • How can I get rid of "myV9" that suddenly appeared the other day when I started Firefox?

    Suddenly there was a portal site named "myv9" or "V9" on the screen when I started Firefox the other day. It contains a lot of icons for programs like Facebook, Google and so on. Until now I have had only Google as start page from Firefox. Of course I can click on the Google icon to get there, but it is the only site that I want to use of all these. Nearly all the other icons (except Facebook and some others) lead to specific US sites that I never visit (for example the weather forecast for North America) , because I live in Sweden. How can I get rid of "myv9"?
    Even if it doesn´t harm my computer, I am afraid that it will slow it down, and, besides, it needs an extra click to get to Google.
