ITunes graphics problem - coverflow displays fragmented image, slows down

I have a new 24" alu iMac and OS X 10.5.3
Yesterday while using multiple programs (iTunes, vmware fusion, photoshop, etc) I hit the keyboard shortcut for "next song" and then suddenly my computer almost froze (it went to the next song and I could move my mouse around the screen but nothing was responding). I waited for a couple of mins and finally things started responding. But when I tried hitting the "next song" button again, it happened again (freezing temporarily).
Finally when it unfroze and I clicked on iTunes, the coverflow display area looked all crazy with fragmented rectangles as if it had corrupted or something. I found someone else having this same problem on the macrumors board but I can't find his post again! ARG!
Someone had suggested it was a bad GPU... but I don't have any other problems and I find it weird that it would happen to two people within a week of each other. Any ideas what could be wrong?

Could you please send some screenshots so that we can better understand the situation.

  • Problem with displaying BLOB images on JSP page using a servlet

    hi. I have a big problem with displaying BLOB images using JSP. I have a servlet that connects to the oracle database, gets a BLOB image , reads it, and then displays it using a BinaryStream. The problem is , this works only when i directly call that servlet, that is http://localhost:8080/ImageServlet. It doesn't work when i try to use that servlet to display my image on my JSP page (my JSP page displays only a broken-image icon ) I tried several coding approaches with my servlet (used both Blob and BLOB objects), and they work just fine as long as i display images explicitly using only the servlet.
    Here's what i use : ORACLE 10g XE , Eclipse 3.1.2, Tomcat 5.5.16 , JDK 1.5
    here is one of my image servlet's working versions (the essential part of it) :
                   BLOB blob=null;
              rset=st.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM IMAGES WHERE ID=1");
              while (rset.next())
                   blob=((OracleResultSet)rset).getBLOB(2);
              response.reset();
              response.setContentType("image/jpeg");
              response.addHeader("Content-Disposition","filename=42.jpeg");
                    ServletOutputStream ostr=response.getOutputStream();
                   InputStream istr=blob.getBinaryStream(1L);
                    int size=blob.getBufferSize();
              int len=-1;
                    byte[] buff = new byte[size];
                         while ((len=istr.read( buff ))!=-1 ) {
                   ostr.write(buff,0,len);
             response.flushBuffer();
             ostr.close(); and my JSP page code :
    <img src="/ImageServlet" border="0"  > If you could just tell me what i'm doing wrong here , or if you could show me your own solutions to that problem , i would be very greatful ,cos i'm realy stuck here , and i'm rather pressed for time too. Hope someone can help.

    I turns out that it wasn't that big of a problem after all. All i had to do was to take the above code and place it into another JSP page instead of into a servlet like i did before. Then i just used that page as a source for my IMG tag in my first JSP. It works perfectly well. Why this doesn't work for servlets i still don't know, but it's not a problem form me anymore . Ofcourse if someone knows the answer , go ahead and write. I would still appriceatte it.
    here's the magic tag : <img src="ImageJSP.jsp" border="0"  > enjoy : )

  • Coverflow displays "tiled" images instead of the proper artwork.

    I have itunes 7.6.0.29. for the album artwork that I do have the artwork is displayed right in the bottom left hand corner of itunes, but when I switch to "Coverflow" view the image of the artwork is incomplete and tiled. I had the same problem with quicktime and was able to fix it by disabeling Direct 3D video acceleration, but no resolve for itunes. any help is appreciated.

    You would need to either manually create a static page with the thumbnails, or use server side scripting to dynamically display them.

  • Problem with display an image on JFrame in Java 6

    I'm trying to display an image on JFrame in this way:
    1.) I'm creating a variable in the class:
        private Image imgSpeaker = null;2.) I'm overiting the paint method:
    public void paint(Graphics g) {
            super.paint(g);   
            g.drawImage(imgSpeaker, 330, 230, null);  
        }3.) In the constructor I'm using this code:
       imgSpeaker = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("D:\\speaker.gif");
            MediaTracker trop = new MediaTracker(this);
            trop.addImage(imgSpeaker,0);
            try {
                trop.waitForID(0);    // waiting untill downloading progress will be complite
            } catch (Exception e) {
                System.err.println(e);
            }        The Image will be displayed on form, but if I catch the window and move it (for example: down as possible)
    the image is not refreshed (repainted). What I'm doing wrong? I've been used this solution in Java 5 and everything
    works perfectly. Any of described methods aren't depricated... Anyone can help me?

    Thanks for your code, I've been tryed to apply your solution (with create a Buffered Image), but it still not working correctly. Firstly, the image isn't loading, and secondly the basic problem is not give in. Why have you been using "bg2d.draw(img, x, y, w, h, frame);" not in the paint method?

  • Problem with display of images in applets

    Hi all,
    When I run this program, the appletviewer window is showing no output (i.e. no image). I'm using the netbeans IDE 5.0.
    Blue hills.jpg is present in both the src folder and build folder.
    * <applet code="image" width =800 height=600>
    * <param name="img" value="Blue hills.jpg">
    * <\applet>
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.applet.*;
    public class image extends Applet {
    Image img;
    public void init() {
    img=getImage(getDocumentBase(), getParameter("img"));
    public void paint(Graphics g){
    g.drawImage(img,0,0,this);
    Please help in figuring out the problem....

    It will be looking for it in the folder with the HTML that invokes the applet.
    If you want to pack the image in with the applet then use getResource instead.
    And spaces in the name are probably not the best idea.

  • Problem  to display multiple images in report!

    Hi,
    I have 3 tables, in each table i have a column with an image "blob"!
    I have creat a view with this 3 tables and a report of this view.
    My problem is that when i try to show one image column in report, "there is no problem", but when i try to show two or tree column´s with images, it display's only the last image that i call in report!
    select     "V_VIEW"."ID_STATE" as "ID_STATE",
         "V_VIEW"."STATE" as "STATE",
         "V_VIEW"."ID_TABLE" as "ID_TABLE",
         "V_VIEW"."NAME" as "NAME",
         "V_VIEW"."ID_PRIORI" as "ID_PRIORI",
         "V_VIEW"."PRIORI" as "PRIORI",
         "V_VIEW"."ID_PRODUCT" as "ID_PRODUCT",
         "V_VIEW"."PRODUCT" as "PRODUCT" ,
    dbms_lob.getlength("V_VIEW"."IMAGE") IMAGEPRODUCT,
    dbms_lob.getlength("V_VIEW"."IMAGEPRIORI") IMAGEPRIORI,
    dbms_lob.getlength("V_VIEW"."IMAGESTATE") IMAGESTATE
    from     "V_VIEW" "V_VIEW"
    Using normal standart report with in report atributes column:
    IMAGE:T_STATES:IMAGESTATE:ID_STATE::::::inline:
    What are i making wrong, in this case he does only make the last dbms_lob.getlength and shows only dbms_lob.getlength(IMAGESTATE) IMAGESTATE;
    If i change the order of the report and put in the end of the code:
    dbms_lob.getlength(IMAGETYPE) IMAGETYPE, the he shows this last image!
    I have try to make a demonstration of my problem on this forum, so i have creat an example on apex.oracle.com and there it works just fine, showing all the images of report.
    i am using apex 3.1.0.00.32
    Why doesn't the same example work in my aplication.
    If someone can have a look at working example:

    Thank's in advance;

    Pepe,
    Is the first report on the page working correctly? I think so. So I don't see an example of what you described.
    I do see that there are no images in the second report, but that's not the same as the first problem you described, is it?

  • ITunes graphical problems

    I'm having a lot of graphic issues with iTunes since I built my Windows 7 64 bit PC. On XP I had no issues with this though, what is occoring is a smear of albums under music when scrolling and even text if I display in list mode.
    Here is a picture of what I mean:
    http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/7318/47564946.gif
    I have had some days where it isn't that bad, but it's getting very annoying. My graphic drivers are fully up to date.
    Is there any way I can fix this? I have reinstalled iTunes well over 20+ times.

    Sorry I didn't get back to you earlier ... yeah, the Samsung multiscreen function just doesn't seem to like iTunes. (It isn't the most common issue in the world, but you're at least the third person I can recall getting this on a Samsung monitor of some description.)
    Glad you got things working better again.

  • Problem of displaying JPEG images

    I just got my new Power Mac G5 computer. I am Also new to the MAC world. I put in a CD, which is filled with all JPEG files, into my DVD drive. From the desktop, I double click the CD icon; no problem, I saw all the JPEG files. I then tried to view the images by double clicking them; however, some of them were display successfully thru Preview and some were not. For the images, which had trouble to be displayed, had error message saying the files were not recognizable or data were corrupted.
    I also tried to drag the file from CD folder to iPhoto icon, I got the same error message (not recognizable or data corrupted).
    I had no trouble in viewing all these images from Windows 2000. I have no idea what's wrong.
    Please help, thanks!
    Howard
    Power Mac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.2)  

    Hi Howard,
    Drag all the images to the desktop first. Now open iPhoto and drag the images into an open iPhoto viewing window (library view)
    If you put the images in folders to organize them, then each folder dragged into an open iPhoto window will be imported as a roll with the folders name.

  • IPhone iTunes match problem, songs displaying incorrectly or not displaying at all

    I have an iPhone 4, and recently subscribed to iTunes Match.  The list of artists/songs/albums, etc. does not show my content correctly. Some songs aren't displayed even though they have been downloaded, and the alphabetical display is making no sense. 
    I have posted a screenshot:  http://junklogic.com/transfer/photo.PNG
    Despite the categories being alphabetical, you can see that artists under "U" are being displayed under "W" and "X". 
    I also downloaded some songs via the iTunes Purchased Music feature, and they downloaded, but are not displaying. Most recent purchases are not displaying.
    Does anyone have any insight as to what is going on? 
    Thanks.

    I thought my email from Apple would amuse, in it they imply I was unable to make it work. Not them. Note no apology whatsoever - it would imply guilt.
    They also threatened me with an effective year long ban if I get my money back. Here's the email:
    Hello David,
    I understand that you haven't been able to get Match working, so you'd like to see about receiving a refund. I can imagine you must be eager to get this sorted out. Edna wanted to make sure this gets resolved, so your case was escalated to me. My name is Adam and I'm an iTunes store senior advisor.
    Please keep in mind that if you cancel your iTunes Match subscription, you will no longer have access the Match features. In addition, if you receive a refund, you will not be able to subscribe to iTunes Match again until a year from the refund date.
    If you would still like to cancel, just reply to this email with the billing address and the last four digits of the credit card on the account. Upon receiving your response, Apple will verify your information, cancel your iTunes Match subscription and issue you a full refund. You will receive an email confirmation in regards to any refund.
    I'm looking forward to your reply and the chance to get this taken care of for you. Apple wants your iTunes experience to be as enjoyable as possible.
    Sincerely,
    Adam

  • K7D Master-L graphics problem: multiple display adapters/no winxp star

    Hiya,
    I just recently bought a new K7D Master-L and I've had a few problems with it. Other than these issues the board has been great, but this is getting pretty annoying and I can't seem to fix it, so I'm posting here for advice/help/solutions.
    System Specs: I have two AthlonMP 1900+ and 786MB Corsair RAM (registered PC2100, 512MB in slot 1, 256MB in slot 2). I have a WD400JB (40GB ATA100 drive with 8MB buffer) and a generic IDE CD/DVD-ROM. I have an ATI Radeon 9700 Pro AGP card running at 4x.
    When I first installed the motherboard I tried to load Windoze XP on it (actually I first used Linux but had ...driver problems). Anyway XP seemed to install fine, but upon reboot, the system would get to the "progress bar"/"OS loading" screen (the small blue bar that goes back and forth) and the bar would get stuck exactly 2 "bars" from where it started--every time. I could boot into safe mode, but nothing seemed screwy. Doign the command-line boot (I think) where it shows the drivers it is loading, it got to the "agpgart" file then stopped, maybe this was the problem. I gave up after a dozen reboots or so, trying various things, and installed Windows 2000+SP3.
    Win2K installed fine, and after installing the drivers on MSI's site for northbridge, southbridge, audio, and lan, and installing ATI's latest Catalyst 3.4 drivers (I also tried 3.2), device manager had no more problems, save one.
    The problem is that there are two display adapters listed: "RADEON 9700" and "RADEON 9700 (Secondary)". There were two adapters listed before I installed the drivers, called something like "Display Adapter" and "Display Adapter (VGA compatible)". In Properties it says "PCI Slot 4 (PCI bus 1, device 5, function 0)", is this normal for AGP cards? Here is a screenshot (I disabled one to see if that helped my settings-loss problem, but it doesn't):
    [ALIGN=center][/ALIGN]
    Whats worse is that the display settings don't seem to stick around across reboots--it always reverts to the default settings of 640x480x16--which is extremely annoying. These problems exist regardless of whether I have a Service Pack installed (currently I'm running on a fresh Win2K install with no updates and having the same issues). I've tried multiple drivers for the card and no change, I've tried with/without the updated chipset drivers, and I've had this same setup work on my previous motherboard (Tyan Tiger MP) without seeing multiple display adapters.
    Any ideas? Or is there something that might fix my WinXP startup freeze? If so I could reinstall WinXP and see if that has the same multiple adapter problem...
    Thanks for any advice.
    Josh

    Well my system just booted into 640x480x16, so it appears those registry changes didn't fix the issue. The registry settings were simply changed back to 640x480x16 for some reason. I haven't reinstalled the motherboard drivers, but I gathered them all up and I'll try this later today. Here are the latest drivers I found, all from MSI's site:

    We shall see if this fixes the multiple adapter problem. As far as the display settings problem, I don't know that the deal is. It works fine on other motherboards with the same hardware and drivers, so it must be something with the K7D, Windows, and ATI interaction.
    Josh
    P.S.: There is a bug with this forum software and apostrohpies. Every time you preview your post it inserts escape characters ("\") before apostrphies, and also inserts escape characters for these escape characters, so quickly you have something like  "\\\\\\\'" where you want "'".

    I couldn't find a topic that speaks about this kind of a problem. If there is one i applologize.
    I use:
    Win XP prof. SP2
    framework 1/2/3/3,5

    Try the Builds forum over at MozillaZine, that's where all the "testers" hang out.
