Intermittent color saturation on C910 Chromebook (has stopped acting intermittent now)

I got this Chromebook from my son when my Windows computer was hit by the Crypowall ransomware. I've straightened out that problem, but had to lose all my files that were encrypted and I was unable to recover them. Anyway, the last 4 or 5 days, I've had an intermittent display problem, where the red color becomes saturated/dominent. It is very much like when I worked on video arcade games with CRT monitors, a transister in one of the Red, Green or Blue drive circuits on the neck board, would start failing and that color would become saturated in display. I removed the bottom of CB case and found the main connector for display and tried to find a possible problem in that area and the rest of the motherboard, but, was unable to induce any intermittent changes. The problem has stopped being intermittent, pretty much now and the red has stayed after numerous Shut Downs and Power Ups. I'm pretty much ruling out the actual display, but, I'm assuming there is no display circuitry between the display connector on motherboard and the display panel. Apple iPhones do have an embedded circuit mounted on the LCD ribbon cable, but, I haven't anything like that on laptop displays I've replaced.

I'd look at a broken or partially broken wire in the cable between the motherobard and display. Failing that it's pretty much got to be a motherboard issue.

  • Photo Stream PC-error message "applephotostreams.exe has stopped working" and now additional photos that I want to upload is not uploading.

    I sync my devices with a PC running windows.  I have turned on Photo Stream on my PC, iPhone4S & iPad2.
    On my PC it creates two default folders in Pictures called "My Photo Stream" and "Upload".
    Instructions says that you can add photos to the "Upload" folder and it will automatically upload to your "My Photo Stream" folder and when your devices are connected to wi-fi they will upload to each device and show up in the "Photo Stream" section of Photos.
    I was able to upload 50 photos but then I got an error message that applephotostreams.exe has stopped working.
    How do I fix?

    I was having the same problem.  Earlier in the week, I was able to drag a few photos to the upload folder and they synced correctly.  Yesteday, I dragged different photos, and I got the "applephotostream.exe has stopped working" error.
    The solution - for me, at least! - was to reduce the size of the pictures being uploaded to the photostream.  While all of the pictures were jpegs, the first set were ca. 800K (3800 x 2500), and the second set were ca. 2.5 MB (4000 x 2000).  When I reduced the resolution of the last set by a factor of 4 (ca. 600 K, 2000 x 1500), they uploaded without a hitch.
    Based on this admittedly sketchy experiment, it looks like Apple has a max picture size limit, apparently based on file size rather than picture resolution).  Perhaps < 1 MB?  To be rigorous, I should complete the experiment - leave the resolution of the second set of pictures alone and reduce file size by reducing jpeg quality. 
    Has anyone heard about a picture file size limit?

  • HT1212 my iphone 4s has stopped working it now has a black screen and although it seems to be turned on, its not responding to anything??? HELP

    My iphone 4s has stopped working it first stopped accepting my pass code then the screen went black, I have connected it to my computer but it is still not working just makes a sound when i connect it. can anyone help??

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My ITunes has stopped working and now shows error6034 and Error7Windows,I  can't  open  it ,have reinstalled twice but no use,now  what?Thnx

    I  think my ITunes  has  crashed- I  have  reinstalled  twice but still  get  same  error  message 6034 and Error7 Windows,was  told  it  might be library  files not ITunes  directly.Should use restore point, but I've never done that before  and is permanent...don't  want to make  matters worse or screw up everything else with restore button....It is restore point from Nov. Anyone have a solution for me?   Thnx  for your help.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Firefox has stopped working and now it will not start up. If it does start up it freezes before opening any pages

    Firefox suddenly stopped loading up. If it did start loading it would freeze as soon as the window opened and would not close down. I have tried uninstalling firefox and reloading it but the same problem occurs. I have also tried uninstalling, deleting all firefox files and reloading but the problem is the same. I noticed after reloading firefox would attempt to start the first time but would not even open after first attempt

  • My home button has stopped working, and now i cant get siri to stop popping up

         all the suddon one day my home button stopped working. its never been dropped or gotten wet. i just got the phone less than a month ago.
    now siri pops up out of nowhere and when im doing something, like on an app, it will glitch and go to the home screen. its almost like the home button is stuck. its getting to the point where i cant do anything with it. i have already restored the phone multiple times. i have apple care. do you think that apple would replace my iphone 4s?

    Apple might. I'm not a genius on Apple Care though.
    But if you go to a Genius bar, the guys there might be able to fix it for you.
    In the meantime, try pressing the home button really hard. It may pop up.
    This is the best I can do.

  • Windows Service Manager 32-Bit Has Stopped Responding/iPod not showing up in iTunes

    Hello,
    I've scoured this forum for answers but I cannot find any result that works. I have an iPod classic that I've connected to my Gateway running Windows Vista for over four years without issue. When I was using iTunes 9 the other day, I plugged my iPod into my computer, but it only connected to My Computer and didn't connect to iTunes and update my iPod accordingly. So, the iPod is charging and the iPod is showing the "Connected, Eject before disconnecting" screen, but it isn't adding new music (which kind of defeats the purpose of buying new music). I thought it was because I was using 9, so I downloaded iTunes 10, but the issue still popped up.
    This hasn't pop up today after I installed 10, but back when I was using iTunes 9 the following error came up on my computer: "Windows Service Manager 32-bit Has Stopped Working." Now, no error messages pop up, even though the problem persists.
    I've tried suggestions in this post as well as in this post. Also, with the fix being recommended in those threads to change the code in Notepad by clicking "edit" under the System tab under My Computer? There's one problem - there is no edit button on my options. I've included a screen grab to prove this.
    I don't know if the relative age of the discussions makes any difference - maybe a new fix has com up and i'm just not finding it? Plus, since this issue began with iTunes 9, I can't help but feel like getting rid of iTunes 10 is going to help the issue, either.
    This is incredibly frustrating, not being able to add new music to my iPod, so if anyone can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it, as previously recommended ones aren't useful.

    Screen grab of the lack of an "Edit" button in the place to edit codes as recommended in previous topics:

  • Itunes has stopped workin

    recently i was promoted to upgrade to itunes 8. i updated itunes and it was working fine, a day later i setup genius for my library. itunes was still working fine, but 2 days later when i turned on my pc i got a message saying *"itunes helper has stopped working"*. i tried to open itunes than i got this message*"itunes has stoped working"*. i tried to repair it. i unistalled/reinstalled it 3 time, but nothing. i even went to control panel and clicked on quicktime and than clicked repair, it went on to try to repair quicktime but right before it was almost finished trying to fix quicktime i got another message that read *"windows installer has stopped working"* so now im completely stomped. some one please help

    If QUicktime doesn't work then iTunes cannot work as it requires a functioning QUicktime.
    First, have you ever installed any of the following:
    ACE & K-Lite mega codecs package, QT alternative, Storm codec, WinAVI video converter
    If so you must uninstall them before proceeding - these are notorious for causing QUicktime problems after an upgrade.
    Then we will go for a removal of iTunes and related programs with an installer clean up of any programs that do not uninstall properly:
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.
    To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
    XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Vista
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    *If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
    When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
    Restart your PC.
    Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
    Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
    Occasionally QUicktime doesn't show up properly in the cleanup utility, so if you don't see QUicktime and it didn't uninstall properly, look out for numeric entries that could be QUicktime version numbers e.g. 7.5.
    restart your PC
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
    If it does, try installing iTunes.
    I am hoping that the message about WIndows Installer not working was related to an install going wrong rather than a general problem with Windows installer.
    If things don't work out you need to give as much information as possible about what went wrong including the full text of error messages and error numbers if any.

  • Hello, I'm pretty sure my fan on my 2009 mac book pro has stopped running. Would this cause the computer to slow down and take for ever to boot up and show the color wheel every time I select an application ?

    Hello, I'm pretty sure my fan on my 2009 mac book pro has stopped running. Would this cause the computer to slow down and take for ever to boot up and show the color wheel every time I select an application ? how involved to replace fan ? cost ?
    thanks

    Not directly, but if the CPU overheats because of incompatible software, that would cause slowdowns. Do not allow the computer to run if the fan is not working unless you wish to fry your motherboard. Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.
