Check System Preferences>Accessibility and make sure 'invert colours' isn't ticked under 'Display'.

Thanks for that 'sberman' - because my iPhone is backed-up to my work computer (only at this stage) I have had to call our IT Department in Adleaide. (4 times this morning). The last guy managed to get the phone into 'DFU Mode' - no more recovery mode screen - (kind of 'asleep' perhaps) from my understanding of same. I am awaiting a call again from IT so they can get my computer to actually recognise my iPhone on the C Drive. This also happened to one of my colleagues in Newman (WA). She got so frustrated with the whole process that she bought another phone the next time she was in 'civilisation.' She hasn't had any problems since. (Cross fingers).
Thanks again, Sandra2474.

I have an iphone 4s that is having display issues. If I turn the phone on, it vibrates to acknowledge it successfully turned on but the screen stays solid black. I can plug the phone into my computer and itunes will recognize the phone as well.

However, itunes can not do anything with the phone because the phone is locked and I can not unlock the phone because the screen is black.

The screen does work though! Through trial and error along side a little troubleshooting, I was able to figure out that the screen will cut on after the phone dies completely. The phone has to die completely with no battery power left. Then if I plug the phone into a charge and wait a while for it to charge, the phone will turn on like nothing was ever even wrong with it. I charge the phone up to like 30% and turn it off then bam the phone turns on but the screen is solid black again.
I am currently in the process of waiting for the phone to die and when I turn the phone back on I am going to completely remove the auto-lock and lock code off of the phone for the time being.
Any other suggestions? Please help!

Sounds like the device was dropped at some point and damaged as a result.
Take it to Apple for evaluation and a replacement.

My iPod cannot turn on, however it can when it is on my iPod dock. It won't even sync into my computer. Once I take it off of my dock it automatically turns black and I can't turn t on. How can I get it back to normal?

Try restarting the iPhone by holding down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo.

First please remember this is a public forum. If you are going to respond to the thread via e-mail please remove your signature prior to responding.
To resolve your difficulties you will need to go to the Language & Text preference pane. Once there click on Edit List and remove all languages besides English. You will then likely need to remove and reinstall the trial as the language setting I believe is set during the installation process.

You will probably have to contact Apple for repair but before you do try this:
Turn your iPad upside down on your lap and give it a hard smack on the back.

All iSights are webcams. You merely need the appropriate software
to use your iSight for your intended purpose(s).
Some of the apps that work with iSight are listed in Ralph's user tip:

Cheap and good method: converting 2¼/4x5 black & white negatives to positives

This has been covered here but, I wanted to describe my solution.
I have some old large format negatives from 2¼ up to 4 x 5. I don't want to pay to have them scanned or buy a expensive Epson pro scanner or any other kind. (I already have a dedicated scanner for 35mm). I don't even want to spend money on a new copy stand. Although, I am on the look out for a used one.
In a pinch, I needed to make a positive of just one 2¼ negative. For on screen use only.
So I just placed the negative on my flourescent light box (used to look at slides) and took a picture of it with a 55 macro lens (the best for copy work) and a 24 MP DSLR. I used a high shutter speed, 500, to avoid shake. I also shot off a number of frames.
Most the frames were useless because of a color cast, I think caused by the sensor and the flouresenct tubes. But one was fine. I imported it, turned it positive in Curves, used the built in Effects Black and White Blue Filter 100% conversion, cropped it (with 2¼ black frame around it) cleaned up the specks and scratches on it in Aperture (262 strokes in Retouch).
I did full on Devignette and there is still a touch of it but, that's OK. That’s what 2¼ does with flash. Besides using the Curves to invert it, the only other thing that I had to adjust was Highlights and Shadows. Enhance and Exposure had little impact so I kept them off.
Frankly, it is hard to tell the difference between this and the 4000 dpi scans from my expensive 35mm slide scanner!
I'd do a link to the scan here but, it is for a project I can't release yet. But, it would blow your mind. FF 24MP DSLR, macro lens, lightbox, some time in Aperture and you can put some of your large format images up on Flickr or your portfolio for nothing.

I'd say that, if you are worried about perspective distortion, go buy an Epson Perfection 700 and scan large format film that way.
But I am not sure how I would detect perspective distortion. Macro lenses around 50-60 mm are designed to not have much or any of that.
I don't worry about stuff like that… life is to short. Exessive obsession with perfection to extreme with gear is a miserable existance. (However, do good work though…)
The iPad (any size) is a nice idea too! If you own one, cheaper than buyng a light box you might never use. I just happen to have one from film shooting days.
If you have a Nook, Kindle, or larger Android, those might be big enough for 4x5 or 5x7 too!
For those with only an iPhone, iPod, or other smart phone, used or new light boxes are probably pretty cheap now and even a small one can do 4 x 5 with room to spare. Art stores sell them too. My small one is made for tracing. My big light box was originally on the wall for X-Rays in a hospital. I bought it surplus.

Monitor suddenly went black/white (negative image)...

... in one blink of the eye. Nothing but black and white, but mostly black. What happened? How can i fix it? I have the white iMac that has the monitor on an 'arm".
Thanks for any help you can offer!

BTW, for future questions about your system, you'll get the quickest and most accurate response if you ask in the iMac (Flat Panel) areas, further down the page. This forum is for the new Intel-based iMacs, so you won't be as likely to get proper help here.

Officejet 8620 Only Scanning in Black & White

It looks like this question has been aked before but the solutions offered don't work.
If I scan using my Mac software (import from preview) I can scan in colour or B&W but if I use Scan to Computer directly from the scanner it will only scan in B&W. I am savig to PDF and experiencing the problem on both my iMac and Macbook. There are no options, that I can find, that allow a colour preference to be set.
Anyone got any ideas?

HI @Ray2304 , Welcome to the Community!
What comes to mind when I read through your post about not being able to scan from the printer to computer in color, would be either the AirPrint driver is selected, or perhaps the Full Feature version of the software isn't installed. I very well could be incorrect however, I have some steps that should iron it out for you.
Try these steps in order please:
Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system
Repair disk permissions
Restart the Mac
Click here and download the Full Feature driver and install it: HP Officejet Pro 8620 e-All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Drivers
In addition, download this Apple driver: HP Printer Drivers v3.0 for OS X
Try a scan afterwards and it should work!
Please keep me posted on the results

About a week ago, water got into my headphone jack of my IPhone 4s and it was working fine for a few hours but all of a sudden the screen went black and I can't turn it back on. I put my phone in rice for a few days but the screen is still black.

However, I took some screenshots and when I went to upload the pictures to my Mac, the screenshots uploaded. So I believe my phone still is working but the screen is just not turning on. I tried holding down the home and top button for ten seconds, even longer, but nothing occurred. I am hoping to find a possible solution so I do not have to buy a new phone. Thank you!

The backlight burned out from getting it wet. You will have to replace the screen at a 3rd party shop, buy a screen and replace it yourself, or make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and do an out-of-warranty replacement for $199 USD.

Events vs Albums / Can you turn Albums into Events?

Argh, which to use?
I re-installed Leopard and when rebuilding my iphoto library I imported a library with albums and the backup of iphoto 8 that had events. Is there a way to make my albums into events easily?

Shawn
You can't nest albums, but you can put them in folders, and you can nest folders...
1. File -> New Folder. Call it 2007, then drag your January 07 album to it, repeat as necessary.
2. That sort of organisation is a bit redundant though. You can create Smart Albums based on date, and using the Calendar tool you can find any pic from a particular day, month or year.
