Display shows a white screen
Try putting the iPod into disk mode:
Reset the device (press the Sleep and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until the display turns black—about eight seconds).
When the display turns black, hold down the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk mode.
While the device is in disk mode, sync it to iTunes and try to restore.
Hope this helps,

Why are my display screen colors going blurry? Is the monitor going? Can it be fixed?

The display screen of my Imac osx 10.4.4 had a vertical colored line through it for several weeks. Now all the colors have become blurry. I ran the hardware test and there are no issues. Can the display be fixed or is the computer dieing?

I had a similar issue with an iSight G5 about a year ago. The colors began to go funky on the screen and I ran every test I could think of. The situation gradually worsened and I finally put the iMac to rest in a back room in my basement. The hard drive still works and the information is accessible on it and I have retrieved just about everything I can think of from it. The computer didn't die, but the monitor did. An iMac without a working monitor is kind of useless.
I'm guessing your iMac is fairly old - by today's standards anyway - and even if the monitor issue can be resolved, it may not be worth the cost. You would have to find that out on your own at an Apple Store or a Mac repair shop.
Maybe it can be repaired .... and this is just my opinion .... but I would find a nice recycling place to lay the Mac to rest and buy a new one.

Help Help! Screen just died (pics attached)

I have a 20' iMac G5 that I got about 3 years ago. When I went back to my computer after dinner tonight, the screen looked like this (look at links for pics). I had used the computer 2 hours beforehand and the screen was working fine. I have never dropped it or anything; it has basically been sitting in the same spot for 3 years and hasn't received any damage. What is going on? I looked all over this board for anything related to my problem and couldn't find anything. I tested around with this dying screen and found out that I can still log on and I can hear the sounds when i change the volume. So I'm thinking just the screen is crazy. I really need this computer seeing as it has all my work and all my music (very very important). What is going on with my screen? Is there any way to fix it? If it is impossible to fix, how can I get my music and other things onto an external hard drive?

Sorry to say this, but it looks like your LCD panel went bad. If you have AppleCare that is still in effect, submit a report to AppleCare right away.
Also do this - Shut down your iMac. Connect an external display. Restart your iMac. If the external display works, then there is a problem with either the LCD panel or the Inverter in your iMac.
Assuming the external display works, you can use it to run your iMac while you back up your music & other data. Or just keep using the external display. Replacing the LCD panel is not cheap.

Mac mini and a 30 in display screen questions

Hi everyone .
I wanted to no if anyone out there knows if the Apple Mac mini will run a apple 30 inch screen . I want to run my dell 30 inch screen on it at full resolution of 2560 x 1600 . Thats what my display runs at like the apple one . But before I buy one of these mac mini machines . I want to no if it will handle dual link for the 30 inch display .
Also I what to run the sims 3 game on it . I see that some of the older mac mini will not run with gma -950 series graphic card thats built in to the older ones . Only the newer made mac mini machines . I see that apple dont have any newer style mac mini left for sale right now . So ether I have to spend 600.00 dolars at the apple store off the shelf . But I dont want to do that right now . so I have to wait for now .
But what I really want to no is if The mac mini is wort the money . I see some people say that the imac is better . But I dont want not use my 24 inch dell display screen . I payed close to 600.00 new with a 5 year warranty for it . Plus the mac mini has built in bluetooth and airport card for it .So I dont have to buy it extra .
If you have any reviews on it , I would like to hear what you have to say about it .
Thank You

Thanks for responding to my post but Thats somewhat what I was looking for . The Main question I wanted to no Did anyone out there Have a mac mini hooked up to a 30 inch screen. I need to no if the screen will have the same resolution as my power mac g5 1.8 dual with a Nvivia 6800 GT with duallink video card . The card I have from nvivia has a max resolution of 2560 x 1600 at it maxed out .
My game graphics look very good on my power pc g5 dual 1.8 with the dualink card from nvivia .I would buy a new mac pro but I dont have money coming out of my a*s. I'm fine with my regular g5 but the only reason I want to buy a mac mini is to play the sims 3 .Me and my wife are really mad that maxius the maker of the game , will not wright a new program for mac . The only one they are making is not a true mac software or program under os x . What I have learned at the sims 3 web forum is that the current game for mac os x is a windows game with a mac emulator . The people that are also playing it under a power book like 2007 model with gma 950 graphics . It wont play at all . Nice going apple on this one you really want the people with powerpc g5 to buy new macs .I think apple and maxis the game maker had there hand in on this .Apple dont you get enough money you have squeeze every bit of money out of us you can .
But back I'm done lashing out at apple for now .So as it stands I buy a apple mac mini or a dell hybrid small computer windows based by dell 499.00 us dollars . or a apple for 599.00 dollars at the apple store .But the downside is that in the future it may not be able to play the new games in three years or so and be out of date . WE waist more electronics in this country than any country in the world . But I'm not the first person encounter this problem . There's many more people that still have the g5 line and like there true mac computer not this fake intel machine . Why did apple do this in the first place start with a intel chip in there computers in the past not goto IBM to buy there chips ?. If this was done in the first place we would be better off right now .
So back to me buying a mac mini this is were i'm at right now stuck not able to play the sims 3 because it not a true mac written game under unix like all the games in the past . I had game from my windows machine that were written for windows 98se and the games played fine under windows xp no problems at all .I did not have to shell out hundreds of dollars to play a game like this ? . I think apple and maxis is taking us for a ride and riping us off . Maybe some of you people dont think so . Me my self dont think that and am very mad at this .
so that all i mave to say for now .

Officejet 7500A display screen showing adverts

I have an Officejet 7500A Wide Format printer. I've had it for around 3 years and recently the display screen has started showing adverts for the printer (about its economy, ink, paper, etc.). This is a bit pointless seeing as I already have the printer but more to the point the cycling colours and words are in my line of sight and are irritating and I can't get rid of them. There don't seem to be any options anywhere to turn them on or off.
I used to just see the Home Screen with four static icons for Copy, Fax, Scan and Apps. The only thing I think I have done differently recently is installed the Full Feature Driver. I had to do this because with the basic driver I kept having to unistall and reinstall the printer. It's connected to my laptop via WiFi by IP Address.
Can anyone tell me how to get rid of the adverts and go back to the nice comforting Home Screen?

This sounds like the pritner has somehow gotten into the "store demo" mode. I would suggest pulling the power plug for a minute, then plug back in and turn the printer back on.

Had to avoid keyboard backlighting from burning into display screen?

I recently had to replace my Mac Pro display screen because the backlighting from th keyboard burned a white streak across the middle of of the screen. I'm thankfull I purchased the additonal warranty and was able to replace it for free, but next year I will be out of luck. Just wondering if it is preventable for the future.

Tracie,
What made you think the keyboard backlighting caused that? I don't see how it possibly could.

Nokia 6085 Blank Display screen now after start up...

Phone is two months old. Worked fine. Now all of a sudden, for no apparent reason,
the display screen, is lit up, but, blank. Can't get Nokia greeting, nothing. Can call out,
can receive calls, but, can't view screen. Removed battery, for whole night, put back in. Sim card is
fine...still...blank screen.
Need help...any suggestions., or is the phone just useless now?
Thanks in advance to anyone for your time.
Very disappointed.

w0nderw0man, the 3-finger reset will not work for S40 phones like yours. It's only for Symbian phones like the N-series, E-series, 5800, etc.
If there's a blank screen, it's best taken care of by a Nokia Care Point.
I would suggest that you get a new phone instead of repairing the 6085, because the repair costs in most cases as much as a new phone of similar or better features. Just my two cents.

That may not be true, Apple specifically state in the iPad warranty :
"Apple may restrict service to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the hardware product."
Here is the iPad warranty :-

Hello @Shotts01 , and welcome to the HP Forums.
I can see you had the display screen pulled off of the printer.
When dealing with hardware damage like this, the best recommendation I could make would be to contact HP directly. You can utilize this website to learn how to contact HP appropriately, based on your region: Contact HP Worldwide.

Think TB display is locking up too

Along with my network problems randomly when the setup actually wakes up I think the display is locking up while asleep. On a 2011mba13 I clicked apple, sleep. Several hours later I went to wake the setup but got no responce from the bluetooh keyboard (bluetooth is set to wake computer). I plugged phone into usb on the display, not charging. I open the air and press its keyboard, it doesn't wake up. I unhooked the air's power from the display and the green status led stayed on the plug. Finally I unplugged the TBolt cable (which was hot) and the led went off on the power plug, the phone instantly started charging, and the air woke up its own screen. I plugged the Tbolt cable back in and its working fine at the moment.

I have the same setup as you and have also see what looks like a display 'lock up'. I've seen two cases; display suddenly goes black while in use, and display won't come back on after the Air has been asleep or blanking the screen.
I did notice that I was getting sound; I move around on the bluetooth touchpad for a bit and got a "can't do that" sort of sound at one point, so some aspect of the monitor is still working in this state.
In all cases I'm working with the air in a closed position, USB keyboard and bluetooth touchpad. Nothing else connected besides gig-ethernet to the display.

How can I get more of my persona to show at the top of the display screen?

Before downloading the newest Firefox, my persona at the top of the display screen showed at least 1/2 of the firefox. Now it's only the ears. How do I show more of it? Stupid question, I know, but it's bugging me.

You can add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.
You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.

How to increase "brightness" of Display Screen on ...

Hi I have just up-graded to to a Nokia 5800 XM which seems the "bees knees" to me as I have never had such an all singing and dancing mobile phone before (had a 6230i about 5 years as my up-grades usually went to daughters or not taken but 6230i lost it's life a couple of weeks ago when it toook an accidental dip in the washing up bowl *) )
I like lots about the new phone , especially the QWERTY keyboard - I can actually do texts now as the old way on key pad took me forever! Oh and handwriting tablet is great - can even write texts!
The only down side is the "display screen" seems rather dim in average to bright daylight ( I am not visually impaired not particularly mentally impaired either as a teacher) SO DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO MAKE THE SCREEN BRIGHTER?
Thanks Bri

I have two hard drives on my mac 10.5.8 power pc and hear the clickking sounds of the first hard drive and think that it may be dying, can I install everything on the other hard drive also and wait for the first drvie to die before i use the other drives

I have two hard drives on my mac 10.5.8 power pc and hear the clickking sounds of the first hard drive and think that it may be dying, can I install everything on the other hard drive also and wait for the first drive to die before i use the other drives? Or, what is the best way to handle this?

I do not know what you are waiting for.
I'd make a backup of your important stuff before cloning the entire disk.
Carbon Copy Cloner will copy your startup drive to an external firewire drive. You can boot from the external drive to verify that you have a good clone. When you upgrade your existing startup drive, you can at any time boot from your external drive and go back to your existing system.

SuperDuper is the wildly acclaimed program that makes recovery painless, because it makes creating a fully bootable backup painless. Its incredibly clear, friendly interface is understandable, easy to use, and SuperDuper's built-in scheduler makes it trivial to back up automatically. And it runs beautifully on both Intel and Power PC Macs!

Check Your internet Explorer connection settings Internet Option->Connection->LAN settings.
Try playing around with it. We had the same problem in the past.
