I need help trouble shooting.... Screen/Monitor related.

My monitor was going reddish/flickering and the backlight was going out so i can i could only barely see what's on the screen. The screen would also just blackout if it was on the brightest setting before.
A couple of days ago i replaced the CCFL backlight. No problems lights up nicely when the screen is not attached. When i try to attach the screen to the hinges it will short out the lamp. So basically, if the lcd frame (metal portion) touches the left or right hand sided "hinges or metal" that it screws into it will short hte lamp out. I just have to put it back into sleep mode and then restart it w/o the lcd touching hte metal. I've replaced the inverter, that did not help.
I am replacing the LCD cable when the part comes in. The whole laptop is taken apart. I can not find any exposed wires. Does anybody have anymore suggestions. I am out of ideas.
T60, model 2007-64U, 14.1 screen. HELP

I give up!!!
All parts don't fix the problem... I tried insulating the metal pseudo works... now the screen shuts off when its touched or moved. Different problems now....
I have decided after a week and half of fixing and spending $50 in replacing CCFL, inverter, and LCD cable I am junking the T60 and leaving IBM/Lenovo.
Going to go get a Mac Book Pro.
Cheers to everyone here... see ya.

Need help trouble shooting on how to fix my MacBook Pro so it will start

Ok, this is going to be a bit of a long one, cuz there are a good amount of details that go into the problem and how I have tried to fix it.
To start, late last summer I got my Macbook Pro 15" with high resolution anti-glare, 500 GB X 7200 RPM hard drive, and everythin else standard.
Next part of the story is that i decided to upgrade from my 3-year-old iPhone 3GS. So I preordered an iPhone 5 (never doing that again), and finally received it 10/05/12.
Wanting to synch my new iPhone 5 ASAP so I could fully play with it, I finally synched my old iPhone 3GS with my MacBook Pro for the first time. I had not previously synched it with my MacBook Pro, because all of the songs and stuff that were on it were from being synched with my family's desktop (from maybe a year or so ago; I don't synch my phones often.). I also had been lazy this whole time in not transferring the songs and stuff from the desktop to my MacBook Pro, so thats why I didn't synch my 3GS, because I didn't want to lose that stuff on my phone until I had made time to transfer the data. Because of this, I didn't use iTunes that much and I updated it only 2 or 3 times over the year that I had if before I got my iPhone 5.
After synching my old phone, I then tried synching the i5, but an iTunes pop up said that I needed to update to iTunes 7.0 in order to synch the new phone.
So I canceled the pop-up, and checked the updates in iTunes, and selected update (I can't remember what it said I was updating to, but I don't think it was 7.0).
After it started updating, it asked if I wanted to update something something else (I think it was an iOS update or something thing like that.).
I select update, because it looks legit, and why not update the whole computer when I'm taking the time to update iTunes? So the 15-20 minute installation estimation time turns into 2 hours (I think that it said that there was 2GB of update, but not sure.).
At that time, I think of how I don't remember if the update was 7.0 or not (maybe 6.9 or something like that was my thought.). So I tried to re-synched my i5 to make the pop up for iTunes 7.0 to come up. It came up, and I clicked the link to take me to Apple's site. I clicked the update to iTunes 7.0, and it started downloading from the internet, and it gave some download estimation time. Remember that the other iTunes and iOS thing was still updating while iTunes 7.0 was downloading. The problem was that I had to go to work a few minutes before the download of the iTunes 7.0 from Apple's site would complete and 1.5 hours before the other updates would finish. So I just left my MacBook Pro open, running, and updating/downloading.
After work, I checked my laptop, and it said something about finalizing the installation. So I hit that button to finalize or whatever it said, and it starts finalizing.
After waiting 10 or so minutes I check my MacBook Pro again, and it says that it needs to restart to complete the process. So I hit the restart button on the pop up.
It restarted, and against a blue screen there was a grey pop up that said that there was some error or something like that in the installation and that I needed to restart the computer again. There was only one button on the pop up, and it was the "Restart" button. So I pressed it, and it restarted again.
However, it didn't fully boot up (and to this day still doesn't) and get past the grey screen with the apple and the spinning gear thingy underneath it.
After like 20 minutes, I did a forced shut off, and rebooted while holding the option button to see if I could start my Windows side, since I have my computer bootcamped, though I haven't used Windows on it yet. The three options appeared: Windows something, Macintosh something, and Recovery HD. I clicked the Windows button, and after loading and stuff, Windows was running and working. So I'm pretty sure that my problem isn't a hardware problem, but a software problem.
So I asked a friend who is studying to be some kind of computer guy, and he suggested that I put in the Mac iOS X disk that I got with my MacBook Pro when I start up and try to get to Disk Utility. I did that, and was able to get to Disk Utility. And as he instructed, I (on the First Aid tab, I think) pressed "Verify Disk". He said that it started to look for problems and stuff. Then when it was done, I pressed the "Repair Disk", and he said it started fixing those problems. After it was done, I performed another forced shut off. I then turned my MacBook Pro on with crossed fingers, but it was still stuck on the gray screen with the apple and the gear.
He then suggested that we try to start it in Safe Mode, so we researched how to do it on my family's desktop. I tried holding Shift after the turn on tone and releasing it when the spinning gear appeared, but that didn't work. I'm still not sure if that's the right way to start in safe mode.
So right now I don't have any other ideas, besides spending money to get it fixed, which I don't want to do, cuz I'm not rich and I work hard for all these fancy toys.
It ***** to have the joy of getting the newest iPhone overshadowed by my MacBook Pro not working.
Someone, please help!!!

First off your older OS X boot disks are no good as you upgraded OS X to a later version.
When you held the option key down at boot, this entered Startup Manager and by what your describing you have Recovery HD, Macintosh HD (your OS X boot partition), and Windows BootCamp partition.
To repair the drive, you enter Recovery HD and use Disk Utiltiy there to repair the Macintish HD partition.
You also use Recovery HD to reinstall OS X 10.7 or 10.8 from Apple's servers, this should fix your problems without deleting your programs or files. (some third party with at boot kernel extension ones will have to be reinstalled)

Need help trouble shooting mail issue

Mail issue started when the compter (imac intel, g4, os 10.6.8) said it needed to restart during a mail download. I restarted, then the mail program would not stop downloading older messages. I went online and followed a whole bunch of suggestions, which only made matters worse (preferences... drag com.mail.plist to desktop, add it back, rebuild mail) nothing worked. I then trashed the mail program, and trashed some of the mail cache (not wanting to lose preferences, I lett this cache). Then mail I could not access mail without the set-up assistant showing on screen. So... (digging a deeper and deeper hole!) I tried to restore mail from my time machine back-up (severl days prior to issue) and it did not help. I then reinstalled applications from snow leopard... not helpful. I then figured I could use migration assistant to copy my working mail program from my mac pro and this did not solve the issues. Of course all of this taking me away from my Christmas shopping:-)
So, I tried to set it up manually, but the program will not save the password and it keeps asking for the password but rejecting it each time.
Any ideas??

Thanks for your suggestion regarding contacting Apple. I called the Express service and talked for a couple of hours trying to resolve the issues.
One, to deal with the password issue, Keychain Access > Preferences > click on Reset My Default Keychain, close.
For the original issue of mail downloading messesges from my server every time I checked mail,
Library > Mail folder > messagealreadydownloaded3 > drag to trash. Issues resolved!!!
As for creating a pretty good mess... well all I can say is that I was following suggestions from other users that have posted online with similar issue. Lesson learned??? Not sure if there was one:-)

Need help trouble shooting psinfo

Folks... I am confused... I need to programatically read the command line arguments in /proc/<pid>/as.
For 2 processes I get the message "as open: Permission denied". The processes are
smmsp 366 1 1 1 0 Jun 20 ? 0:05 /usr/lib/sendmail -Ac -q15m
AND
root 367 1 0 Jun 20 ? 1:02 /usr/lib/sendmail -bd -q15m
I am running my code as root... When I try using pargs I get the message "pargs: cannot examine 366: permission denied"
Can anyone explain why it these 2 processes that are in trouble? Is this real?
Thanx
Siva

I need help trouble shooting my 2 apple TV set up in home.

I have 2 Apple TVs in my home. One Gen1 and 1 Gen2. The gen1 is working fine with home sharing and finding the movies, etc. But the gen 2 is not showing up in iTunes under devices and I can't get it to pull down the content (movies, songs, etc). What should I do?

ATV1 doesn't use Home Sharing but ATV2 does.
ATV1 was set up using an onscreen code you entered in iTunes for that device.
On ATV2 as you set up Home Sharing credentials on the unit it then finds Home Shared itunes libraries without the numeric code step. Consequently ATV2's never show in Devices (unless restoring them over USB).
ATV1 had a hard drive to store contemt. ATV2 has solid state memory and only a small amount so cannot store any content permanently like ATV1. ATV2 only streams. Do you see the iTunes library under the Computers column?

Need help trouble shooting Database Gateway for MS SQL Server setup, getting ORA-28546 error

Dear All,
I am trying to setup Oracle Database Gateway for MS SQL Server(I don't have admin access to the MS SQL Server). When I try to test the dblink connection, I get the following error.
I issued select * from dual@xyz;
ORA-28546: connection initialization failed, probable Net8 admin error

My setup is the following.
1. Oracle 11gR2 running on Oracle Linux 6, the same version gateway is installed on the same server, but different home directory.
2. Oracle DB home directory is /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1, gateway home directory is /u01/gateway.

Obviously, I would like to get this setup to work, but I also have couple other questions regarding this setup.
1. When installing the gateway, it asks to run the root.sh script. the root.sh script as for the following.
Enter the full pathname of the local bin directory: [/usr/local/bin]:
The file "dbhome" already exists in /usr/local/bin. Overwrite it? (y/n)
[n]: n
The file "oraenv" already exists in /usr/local/bin. Overwrite it? (y/n)
[n]: n
The file "coraenv" already exists in /usr/local/bin. Overwrite it? (y/n)
[n]: n
is the above answer correct?
Thanks for reading.

I need help with shooting in my flash game for University

Hi there
Ive tried to make my tank in my game shoot, all the code that is there works but when i push space to shoot which is my shooting key it does not shoot I really need help with this and I would appriciate anyone that could help
listed below should be the correct code
//checking if the space bar is pressed and shooting is allowed
if(evt.keyCode == 32 && shootAllow){
    //making it so the user can't shoot for a bit
    shootAllow = false;

USe the trace function to analyze what happens and what fails to happen in the code you showed. trace the conditional values to see if they are set up to allow a shot when you press the key

Hi Anil,
It is very much possible. Use Modif ID concept. First dont display any date, depending on radio button selected display date in which ever form u need.
See the sample coding for Modif id.
PARAMETERS: test1(10) TYPE c MODIF ID sc1,
            test2(10) TYPE c MODIF ID sc2,
            test3(10) TYPE c MODIF ID sc1,
            test4(10) TYPE c MODIF ID sc2.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
LOOP AT SCREEN.
    IF screen-group1 = 'SC1'.
      screen-intensified = '1'.
      MODIFY SCREEN.
      CONTINUE.
    ENDIF.
    IF screen-group1 = 'SC2'.
      screen-intensified = '0'.
      MODIFY SCREEN.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Dont forget to reward points if found useful.
Thanks,

Help needed to Trouble shoot

I installed Directory SErver on Windows 2000 Advance Server.
The directory server is responding but iplanet console is not responding (Not opening).
How do i troubleshoot the problem. I am not an administrator.
Thanks in Advance
Krish

As mentioned in the docs, http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6697-10/install.html#23711, you need to have Administrator privileges to install properly on Windows.
If you see the login window when you start the console, it could be that the Administration Server you're trying to access is not running, or that some of the connection info (port number, admin ID, admin password) is not correct.
You can look at the list of Windows Services to check whether the Administration Server is running.
Note that you want to be using a 5.2 Administration Server with Directory Server 5.2. So if you're using an older Administration Server with Directory Server 5.2, that could also be a source of problems.
Hope some of this helps,
Mark

Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on): If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.

Need help! Z2 screen cracked. Need my data out! Check details below.

Hey guys, I need your help desperately.
So, my phone's screen cracked. Honestly, I dropped it and now it has some fluid and some parallel lines showing with shades of pink color and a very lil amount of blue and green color lines and its touch itsn't working either. It's screen is shattered. So, basically, I can touch it but it will touch at multiple places like crazy but I can't see anything. And to make things worse I have a pin lock. ^_^ How annoying pleasant is that. I went to the service centre, they said that my phone's screen cannot be replaced as this is a Z series and Z series only have the whole mobile replacement option. So, I need to get my data out.
My USB debugging is turned on, maybe this can help me? But Idk how. If it can, tell me!
And I can't access my phone until unless I unlock the pin lock on my phone. Please help me, I need my data. :'(
I saw this OTG method. I have an OTG cable but even if I connect mouse, I can't see anything so OTG with mouse failed. But I saw a post, someone said they used a keyboard and did some up and down and left right arrow keys and enter and it worked. If you know this OTG KEYBOARD method, please briefly explain it to me!
I read about some Android Debug Bridge. If you know about this too, please explain it to me. I'm literally.. crying inside.That data is.. my LIFE!
Anyways.. I read also about the Multipupose MHL to HDMI OTG with USB support, with which you can use a mouse and display the screen of your mobile on the TV or PC Monitor. But I'm not sure about that, it will cost me around 25 USD but I've seen people say in the reviews that it doesn't work for XPERIA Z2 or Z3 and stuff like that. So, I don't wanna risk it.
So, guys. If you know any other methods or these methods in brief with which I can get my internal data out, do tell me. And then when I get it out, I will give my phone to the service centre for replacement.
Thank you..

Sorry to hear about your phone
If you have a computer that is allowed to access the phone over ADB you could try using a 3:rd party software like MyPhoneExplorer from www.fjsoft.at to access it.
If you don't have a computer that is allowed over ADB in the phone i would recommend that you try to get hold of a TV with MHL or an MHL-adapter (but make sure it supports CEC). If you have a numeric PIN you can unlock the phone using the TV remote. It works fine when i test it with a Sony TV here. When unlocked you can then connect it to a computer.
I edited your post a little to remove some offensive words.

Hi,
In order to assist you, we will need the .DMP files to analyze what exactly occurred at the time of the crash, etc.
If you don't know where .DMP files are located, here's how to get to them:
1. Navigate to the %systemroot%\Minidump folder.
2. Copy any and all DMP files in the Minidump folder to your Desktop and then zip up these files.
3. Upload the zip containing the .DMP files to Onedrive or a hosting site of your choice and paste in your reply. Preferred sites: Onedrive, Mediafire, Dropbox, etc. Nothing with wait-timers, download managers, etc.
4 (optional): The type of .DMP files located in the Minidump folder are known as Small Memory Dumps. In %systemroot% there will be what is known as a Kernel-Dump (if your system is set to generate). It is labeled MEMORY.DMP. The difference
between Small Memory Dumps and Kernel-Dumps in the simplest definition is a Kernel-Dump contains
much more information at the time of the crash, therefore allowing further debugging of your issue. If your upload speed permits it, and you aren't going against any strict bandwidth and/or usage caps, etc, the Kernel-Dump is the best
choice. Do note that Kernel-Dumps are much larger in size due to containing much more info, which is why I mentioned upload speed, etc.
If you are going to use Onedrive but don't know how to upload to it, please visit the following:
Upload photos and files to Onedrive.
After doing that, to learn how to share the link to the file if you are unaware, please visit the following link -
Share files and folders and change permissions and view 'Get a link'.
Please note that any "cleaner" programs such as TuneUpUtilities, CCleaner, etc, by default will delete .DMP files upon use. With this said, if you've run such software, you will need to allow the system to crash once again to generate a crash dump.
If your computer is not generating .DMP files, please do the following:
1. Start > type %systemroot% which should show the Windows folder, click on it. Once inside that folder, ensure there is a Minidump folder created. If not, CTRL-SHIFT-N to make a New Folder and name it Minidump.
2. Windows key + Pause key. This should bring up System. Click Advanced System Settings on the left > Advanced > Performance > Settings > Advanced > Ensure there's a check-mark for 'Automatically manage paging file size for all
drives'.
3. Windows key + Pause key. This should bring up System. Click Advanced System Settings on the left > Advanced > Startup and Recovery > Settings > System Failure > ensure there is a check mark next to 'Write an event to the system
log'.
Ensure Small Memory Dump is selected and ensure the path is %systemroot%\Minidump.
4. Double check that the WERS is ENABLED:
Start > Search > type services.msc > Under the name tab, find Windows Error Reporting Service > If the status of the service is not Started then right click it and select Start. Also ensure that under Startup Type it is set to Automatic rather than
Manual. You can do this by right clicking it, selecting properties, and under General selecting startup type to 'Automatic', and then click Apply.
If you cannot get into normal mode to do any of this, please do this via Safe Mode.
Regards,
Patrick

[nVidia Series] Need Help: Can not detect monitor

I have built a computer from scratch and the computer restart itself once awhile. I tried to update all the drivers by running a live update from MSI. All the drivers were updated, except the BIOS. I also updated the newest AGP Video driver. When I restarted the computer, the monitor went blank. It says no sync. I tried with different monitor, same thing happened. Everything is running in the system, lights all are on. I thought it might be the video graphic, so i put on an other video card to test it, same thing, no screen. I don't know what to do now. Please HELP?

I bought the Antec NeoPower 480 and installed it. Ran it over a few hours, no restart, it's a good sign.
I use the SpeedFan 4.24 program to monitor my system.
Under the VCORE: 1.36v
+3.3V: 3.30V
+5V: 4.97V
+12V: 12.04V
-12V: -12.03V

VBAT: 3.14V
Fan1: 2722 RPM
Fan2: 0 RPM
Temp1: 35c
Temp2: 45C
HD0: 31C
How come the +12V only has 12.04V, shouldn't it be 18V? I have 5 fans running in the case, not including the PSU fan and CPU fan, but Fan2 is 0 RPM. Also, Temp2 sometime went up to 52C, then dropped to 45C. Is this normal? Did I install the power supply correctly?
