Imac 2013    screen/pixel of previous displayed image/application

hi everyone,
just wondering if anyone got the same screen issue with the mac like i have?
if you stay on a page for a while, lets say iPhoto ...then when you change the page/application lets say to safari (bright background) i still can see some parts of iPhoto on the screen?!?!?   not very clear just like long vertical lines of pixel.
i dont realy know how to explain this issue and hope that someone out there understand what i mean.
it seem's like that the previous image burns into the screen and stays there for a while.
the whole issue is that i dont wanne take it in for a check up to the local retail store. its just a computer store who's selling apple gear and i did had a very bad experience with them!!  i live in a remote town and we don't have much choice of getting professional help.
if anyone knows what this screen issue is al about , or if i should take the mac to the store to get checked out please let me know.
I'm just s*&%t scared to go to this store!
thanks

I am thinking Jonny is having the same issue as me.   I have an iMac that just started with vertical lines too.  They are worse if I shut down the vs sleep mode.  As the computer warms up, they slowly fade away, but I still am left with 4 or 5 in various colors.   The one in the very center of the screen is the most annoying.  The others are on the left and one is on the right.   I am unable to capture them with photo capture or screen shot, and they are visible in every application.  (just less noticeable if the screens are white) Also I am unable to print them or capture with screen shots,  luckily, they don't print...   This is not a GPU problem. 
If I am describing this correctly to you, then maybe you have the same problem as me, Mine is an LCD problem.  I have talked with several people, most recently, last week to someone at  Apple.   I was told that they used to have  a program to fix or replace  iMacs with this issue FREE, if they had serial numbers that started with W8..... BUT, it expired in Spring of 2011.  It was called EM80 maintenance.  
He had me try a couple of different things one being something to do with  video.  But nothing has worked.  Another computer tech advised me to NOT  shut the iMac down as this is super hard on them.  Sleep mode only and make sure everything is backed up. 
I am still hopefull they are wrong.  But just in case, I am backing up everything and looking for others like me that are trying to find a way to fix it.   If you don't have a serial number that starts with W8...you may be in luck, it is supposed to just be a video problem.  
Good luck.

  • IPhone 4 screen jumps around when displaying images.

    Hi guys,
    My iPhone 4 has randomly started behaving unusually when trying to display images. The problem is at it's worse when using the camera or trying to display photographs. The lighter the image, the worse the problem.
    The display seems to shrink and stretch rapidly from the bottom of the display. I also begin to see what should be the top of the screen appearing at the bottom.
    Any ideas what could cause it? The phone recently had a new screen fitted.
    Thanks in advance!

    You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.

    You can try to disable OMTC and leave hardware acceleration in Firefox enabled.
    *<b>about:config</b> page: <b>layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled</b> = false
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • Display image in sub_VI

    I am running a Linux (no NI Vision support) LabVIEW application where I have a “main” DAQ VI collecting raw u8 data. I want to be able to display the data as an image in a sub-VI. The first time I call the sub-VI to display the first image everything works fine, however, on the second and subsequent calls to the sub-VI I get an error saying that the sub-Vi is already open and needs to be closed before being called. I don’t have the screen space to adequately display images in the main VI and still have the DAQ controls visible.
    Is there a way to have one VI continuously collect and format image data and then display the data in a second VI?
    Thanks in advance

    Thank you for the reply
    In the example you provided the sub-VI is called, executes, and terminates. I need to be able to repeatedly call a sub-VI that does not terminate. I need to do this so that I can update an image and allow an operator to view the image (and perform event functions on the image such as mouse click).
    Is there a way for a main VI to call a sub-VI and not have to pend (wait) for the sub-VI to complete execution?
    Is there a way to call (i.e. pass data) to a sub-VI that is already running?
    Thank you again for your help

    Try these methods while disconnecting all third party peripherals from the system. So ensure that the second display is disconnected from the iMac as well during these procedures and attempt starting the system with nothing but the Keyboard/Mouse plugged in.
    We're going to essentially attempt to reset all the electronics and firmware on board the system to see if we can't get it to restart, let me know if this works for you Neil.

  • My iphone 4s suddenly displays images from Yahoo, Google, and Flickr at low resolution. The camera on my phone works fine, but any web related photo content is now pixelated and low res, what's the deal?

    My iphone 4s suddenly displays images from Yahoo, Google, and Flickr at a low resolution. I have IOS 7.0.4. My phone camera works fine, but any web based photo content from Safari, Yahoo images, Google images, and Flickr all come in pixelated and low res. What's the deal?

    It happened to me but later I figured out that cellular signal was not that great and so the Internet was very slow. It took me about 2 minutes to get the full resolution picuture on either of the app you've described. Try to get faster internet either by wifi or good signal and then check.

  • I have a iMac(2013 24inch)  (10.8.3) and have been told by Mpix to calibrate my monitor using ColorMunki. Should I purchase "Photo" or "Display" HELP?

    I have a iMac (2013- 24inch) 10.8.3 and have been told by Mpix to calibrate my monitor. Should I purchase Colormunki Photo or colormunki display? I am new to this calibration thing. I would appreciate any experienced advice about which item to purchase and why. Thanks

    The Color Munki Display is limited to calibrating displays.  The Color Munki Photo can be used to calibrate displays, projectors, and printers.
    The CM Display is less expensive and meets your needs.  If you are using an outside printing service, or are printing on standard papers using popular printers (e.g.: Epson Hot Press on an Epson 3880), there is no advantage, IME, to making your own printing profiles.  I have long used a CM Photo and have found it an excellent value.
    The MPix recommendation is spot-on.  You might find some good tips in this post as well.

  • IMac screen suddenly recognizes VGA display that isn't there? Big problems

    Hello:
    My dad was using his iMac G5 when the display went to a blue screen (detected an external display) and formatted to take up a small amount (10-12 inches) of the 17" screen. As I was writing this, the detect display blue screen again flashed and returned to normal.
    Under display prefs, it listed a VGA display. However, there isn't even an adapter in the adapter port. Does anyone know what is going on here? I live several hundred miles away and it just so happens that I was here for the weekend. I would like to resolve this asap.
    No AppleCare.
    Thanks,
    Tyler

    Sorry to chime in without a solution, only another query along the same lines. I have a co-worker who's imac (24" 2.33 intel) sometimes starts up thinking that there's a second smaller display connected. The first time this happened, the dock didn't show up (she had it set along the right-hand side, it was apparently on the "other" screen), she restarted and it would then show up. A couple of days ago I was doing some updates, restarted, and the dock disappeared again. I noticed that the mouse fully disappeared off the right side. Having seen this behavior when two displays were connected in the past, I went to the display preferences panel and it registered two screens, the main one and a much smaller one on the right side. I clicked the "detect displays" button, which reset it correctly back to a single monitor, thinking issue solved. But this morning the same issue occurred. Easy to fix, granted, but I was hoping there might be a more permanent solution? I don't think there's a single displays preferences file that might be replaced, and I'd just as soon not mess around with pitching the full system preferences file unless that'd be the only solution...
    Thanksmuch in advance, and have a good one!

  • An iMac 20" with an 20" Cinema Display as second screen in dual

    I'm planning to buy an iMac 20" but I want to be sure of something before. I want to know if the screen of an iMac 20" and an 20" Cinema Display put together will be exactly at the same position. I search a lot online to have a picture of this but I only found some 17" iMac put together of an 20" Cinema Display. If someone can answer and/or give me a picture of this that would be really nice.

    Here is a quote from the user reviews section of Amazon.com, about the new 20 inch Imac core duo:
    Video out - The new iMac, for the first time ever, features a Mini-DVI output. This allows, with adapters, the ability to connect the iMac to a DVI display, a television via composite or S-video, or an analog display via VGA. I have my new iMac Core Duo connected to my 20-inch Apple Cinema Display, and it works perfect! A nice feature. This allows for screen-spanning, so I can take advantage of both screens.
    This was found at:

  • MacBook Pro Target Display to iMac - Black Screen

    I have a MacBook Pro (13'', Early 2011) & iMac (21.5", Mid 2011) using a Thunderbolt Cable to Target Display. Everything was working find and I could Command F2 to Target Display as expected. 
    However, about a week about this stopped working. Now when I try to Target Display the iMac goes to a Black screen (like it's switching to Target Display) and the MacBook Pro does nothing. The iMac will be at the Black screen until I Command F2 again (or disconnect the Thunderbolt Cable), then the iMac goes back to the normal display.
    I have tried another Thunderbolt cable with no luck. I have perform all software updates on both machines (now both running 10.7.3) and fixed Disk Permissions.
    I have also found that restarting my MacBook Pro allows this to function as excepected (Command F2, Blue Flashing Screen, Target Display on the iMac). However, this is not an ideal situation since having to restart my computer is time consuming.
    Any suggestions would be appriciated.

    Hello all -
    I've done some additional testing. I tried an completely different iMac (and Thunderbolt cable) this morning and saw the exact same behavior so it is definitly something specific to the MacBook Pro.
    Again, a restart resolve the issue, so it appears to be related to after the computer goes into a hard sleep (cover closed), because I can leave for lunch (cover open) and the display will go to sleep and things will still work as expected.
    Any thoughts/ideas woudl be appriciated.
