Lcd or inverter problem? for iMac 21,5"

Hi,
I'm a serius problem with my iMac (late 2009)...
this is the video of my problem http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnYgjL04hKs
what do you think about this?

It needs to be taken in and professionaly diagnosed. Take it to an Apple Store or AASP, you can use Apple Online Service Assistant to locate one. If you purchased AppleCare this should be covered with no problem.

HELP: AVCHD Log & Transfer idle problem for iMac 27"

I just bought an Apple iMac 27" but I cannot do a Log & Transfer.
I used the same SDHC card that I log & transfer succesfully in the old 24" iMac.
But when I did a Log & Transfer in the new 27" iMac, I got into this:
1) FCE4 can detect the card & show all the thumbnails without problem.
2) When I drag a clip into the bottom or click add to queue, it says transferring clip#6 .... but the progress bar didn't move ...
3) after a while, it says 1 clip idle ....
what happen ? how come the clip#6 cannot be imported ? I tried all the clips, but faced with the same problem, it ended up says idle but nothing was transferred to the browser !!
Any ideas ?
Thanks

ok guys,
problem resolved by doing this:
1) right click on the clip
2) goto preference after right clicking on the clip
3) Under AVCHD plugin > AC-3 > Plain Sound
I dunno why it works but after changing from the default Matrix Sound to Plain Sound, it can import so fast ! This new iMac 27" is so much faster than my old 24" iMac ...
If Matrix sound doesn't work why is it there in the first place ?
Cheers

AverMedia installation problems for iMAC 10.6.7

Hi everybody,
I just bought Avernedia plug and watch (software A820) USB device it doesn’t have a install software it is on USB device. In the description is written that product support Snow Leopard higher than 10.4, mine is 10.6.7, but when plug that USB device nothing happens. Any suggestions, please help me.

Looks like you need to download the Mac 2.2.3 Driver from AVerMedia?

Then if that does't work, try AVerMedia Support.

Has anyone had any luck returning there iMac w/ Lion? I couldn't even reconnect back to the iternet tonight w/o restarting my new iMac.... Looks like folks have been having this problem for months

Has anyone had any luck returning their iMac w/ Lion? I couldn't even reconnect back to the iternet tonight w/o restarting my new iMac.... Looks like folks have been having this problem for months & months .. The Apple tech told me that all I could do is wait for Apple to come up with a fix... Got a new router this week so that isnt' it. Would I be better off w/o this until Apple gets their act together? I downloaded the combo update 10.7.3 & it helped for about a day... yesterday I still had to manually reset the connection but now it's resorting back to disconnectiong w/o fully going into sleep mode first. Sorry to say this is a major lemon. Help!

Seems unfair... I thought I was probalby having a router problem... got a new router this week. Thst's when we realized we have a computer problem. My next door nieghbor got zero sleep staying up all night while trying to help us figure out what the problem could be. He said if it were him he would have returned the iMac / Lion. Got the new iMac w/ Lion for Christmas but didn't realize until this week that Apple is the problem.... Hard to believe that Apple just has kept on selling this like ... oh No problem! Can't stay on the internet... but will sell you another one today! I'm getting mad... It's not every day we spend that kind of money on a computer . & ALL they can give us is that LOUSY Lion combo update. I can't even stay connected long enough to make a vitamin order with Puritan's Pride... & then the disconnection wipes out my cart... so I have to start over. When are they going to fix this! 'Not feeling very positive'. I feel like Apple KNOWINGLY sold my husband a defective... system. 14 days... oh please...

OS X 10.7.3 WiFi Update for iMacs and Wake from Sleep Problem

http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1501
Apple has released a software update for those suffering from the iMac wake from sleep/wifi connection issue that resulted from updating to 10.7.3. It fixes the problem for me and several others. For those still suffering this issue, download it and see how it works!

To answer my own question it seems a workaround is to wake the iMac up using the power button rather than the keyboard. The WiFi reconnects this way.

Is it common for imac 20" isight to have noise problems?

Hi there,
I ordered imac 20" isight and currently waiting for delivery. I am getting woried over these "buzzing noise" and other noise problems reported over and over again here on these boards. Can more experienced users of these boards, apple insiders and anyone else give me your opinion:
Is it common for imac 20" isight to have noise problems?
I am really considering to get 17" if there is any real information it is considerably more quiet.
Thank you in advance.

We have a new 17" and 20"
The 17" is virtually silent, the 20" there is some fan noise.
I find it annoying, although it is 100% quieter than my old PowerMac, which I got used to!

General problems with iMac displays

Why is it about iMacs that has these pseudo "burn-in" issue with their displays?
Is this due to cheap component (LG panels)?
Or is this some scheme by Apple to make people pay?
Or both?
I am a proud mac (for that I have insulted enough PC and Linux sinners), but during the day I am forced to be a PC at work. But I have NEVER EVER seen any image persistence on any make/model of 3rd party LCD monitors before. My iMac is currently connected to a Samsung LCD monitor, and when my "dangle" a window (say Safari) between 2 monitors and leave both screens ON for 5 hours, my iMac monitor gets the "burn-in", but the Samsung doesn't.
Maybe 5 hours is a bit extreme, but I am starting to see faint "gridlines" showing up on my screen after I had my Excel open for more than 40 minutes.
What gives?

You are not alone with regards to this issue with the screen.

Apple does not seem to want to acknowledge that this is a problem and will probably tell you that the issues are "environmental" and do not see any problem with it.
I have a similar set up with a Samsung monitor connected and have not issue with the Samsung.

I have a problem with Imac mid 2010 graphics card (ATI Radeon 5670 512MB)

I have a problem with Imac mid 2010 graphics card (ATI Radeon 5670 512MB). When I play video formats like xvid, mkv, avi iMac freezes and emits horrible sound,in service said the problem is not overheating. Not a problem with memory or hard disk because I placed second correct parts.The same problem is with OSX 10.6.8 and 10.8.4 and other players.Apple hardware test found no problem and tech tool pro found no fault.
After five days of testing in the service they can not found fault and it was decided to change the graphics card.
New graphics have been tested for two days but it is not reproduced divx ... but their test software which did not find any fault on the old graphics...
Do I have the right to complain if repair does not fix the problem because I use non apple softwere and video formats.

You could look at the System Profile for the info it presents for the card. But why wouldn't you think it's not up to date if you have the latest install (according to your sig above)?
What program are you trying to run? Is there anything in the system log?
I think it's the program that's having the problem and not anything with your video software.

Not sure that I have selected the correct forum. Hope my questions are clearly stated.
Having problems connecting iMac(late 2006) running 10.7.5 to a Samsung Flat Screen TV using separate audio/speaker cable and HDMI standard cable, mini-DVI to HDMI video converter. TV displays generic Apple galaxy background and "some" windows (e.g. screen resolution choices). It does not show Mail or Safari menus. System preferences' display "gathered" the Samsung and chose its resolution. I did not find a way to select the Samsung as my display.
In addition to having old hardware, we have Verizon FIOS providing internet and TV access. Is there any way to make this work for us? We would like to stream video (Netflix) and view shows from the Web. Do we need Apple TV to do this? Or is it not possible with our old iMac? My husband thinks that our Airport could be a factor.
Thank you

Lately, I have been seeing a lot of posts with users trying to use their Macs/iMacs to mirror their streaming video from their Macs to an HDTV.
There are, actually, many alternatives to choose from than just from a Mac.
You need to have or invest in a WiFi capable router for all of these examples.
Apple TV only integrates with WiFi and newer Mac hardware. So, if you want to have total integrated experience, if you have a 2011 Mac or newer, you might as well pay the $100 for the AppleTV box.
If you have a older Mac, like I have noticed many users do, then you have other options.
If you want to elimate long cable clutter and having your Mac at the mercy of your TV all of the time, you can still use the AppleTV box independently or purchase cheaper alternative media streaming boxes from Roku, Sony, Boxee or any number of electronics manufacturers that now have media streaming boxes and media streaming capability built into DVD/Blu-ray players.
These eliminate long cable clutter by being close to the HDTV where shorter, less expensive cables can be used.
Another alternative for iPad users is to use an iPad with the USB/HDMI video adapter and use your iPad as the streaming box. This ties up your iPad in much the same way as it does with your Mac, but again the iPad can be close to the TV and use minimal cables to the TV.
Another alternative to is to use a combination of an iPad and your Mac to stream content that is only available to stream online from a computer. In this case, you can use a desktop remote app on your iPad and Mac. A good and cheap Desktop Remote app is Splashtop Remote. This allows you to completely connect your iPad remotely, over Wifi, to your iMac desktop. The app streams both video and sound to the iPad which is still connected to your HDTV. The resultant stream video picture will be smaller than the size of your HDTV, but it will still be plenty large enough to watch. Again, if you own a iPad and an Intel Mac, this method also allows minimal cabling to the TV.

Where's can i Buy any Professional Authoring DVD for IMAC, did you know about Studio DVD pro ?

I need help, i need buy or dowload some Professional Authoring DVD for IMAC, I editing in my Final Cut Pro X and need a DVD authoring
after installing the Mavericks, my IDVD don't work, can someone help about this ?
also, did you know if DVD studio pro its available for sale ? if yes, where's can I buy ?
thanks

Apple discontinued DVD Studio Pro three/four years ago. You can probably find copies from private sellers, but whether it will work without problems on OS X 10.9 I don't know. I don't know of any "professional" alternative to DVDSP for Mac, but someone else here may be able to offer suggestions.
As to iDVD, it should work under Mavericks, depending on what version of iDVD you're running. You might ask for assitance in the iDVD forum. For alternatives to iDVD, see this page for suggestions:

Problems with iMac retina 5K (artifacts, glitches and etc.)

Hello dear Apple.
I have bought new iMac with retina 5K display and I have found lot of problem with it. It was December 2014 when I got my first iMac. And after then I have found few real problems with it.
The first problem is I can't open high resolution image with standard Preview.app. I mean 'high resolution' - more then 30-40 megapixels. When I open them, I can see image, but only 2-3 seconds, and after that I see horizontal artifacts only. I can't open images, like this Rembrandt.jpg; Carpaccio.jpg; Holbein.jpg
The second problem, when I change resolution in to scaled mode (System Preferences/Display) for increase image on display. I found when select some area on background of desktop it has left some lines after itself. It is particularly unpleasant if you have plain colour desktop background. You can view, how does it look here.
The next problem with animation in different parts of interface, e.g. sometimes when I open Time Machine some parts of windows are freezing or appear some artifacts or glitches near borders of window. And I have the same situation, when I open Mission Control, or any Adobe app or other, or simply rename a files. I have found few discussions with problems like mine, but in the separate places
5K iMac - bad GPUs?
Graphic Problems with Retina iMac
iMac 5K and indesign glitch
And after that I want to tell you that I have this problems on four (4) iMacs. It was really difficult to arrange four replace. I have lost a lot of time an spent a lot of nerves for discuss and resolve my problems with Apple support. Finally, they told me that they do not know about problems with iMacs, and they could offer give my money back. I glad to get my funds, but now in my country price for iMacs has doubled. And if they refund my money, I can buy half new iMac only.
I am sorry for my language and style, but I do not know what I should doing with that. And should I hope, that my problem resolve with OS X updates? Or it is hardware problem of the whole iMacs 5K...

Yes Ralph, absolutely correct, 4 times. Do you have the graphic card the same as me, or m290? Could I ask you check your iMac for few things, please?
For the first, can you enlarge scale in System preference/Display and install plain dark color desktop background. Are there any footprints after rectangular selection like in my video https://youtu.be/dBglFvjJx1Q?
And for the second, could you download this image https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/07/Rembrandt_Harmensz._van_Rijn _-_Nachtwacht_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg and open in plain Preview.app, and zoom it? Are there any glitches?
Thank forward.

Is Mavericks.app for iMac same as that for Macbook Air?

I downloaded Mavericks.app for my iMac and then used the same installer (mavericks.app) to upgrade my Macbook Air 2013. The upgrade was smooth; but the battery life isn't very great.
Can someone confirm that there's Mavericks upgrade for iMac is the same as that for Macbook Air?

Thanks! Haven't had any problems with the software; except that I'm not happy with the battery life my MBA 2013, 13" offers after the upgrade. Looks like time to reset PRAM and SMC.

"Error getting License. License Server Communication Problem:

Charles P.: Okay, what you need to do unfortunately, is contact Adobe at http://www.adobe.com and they will need to get your license issue resolved.
Charles P.: Is there anything else I can assist you with today?
Me: title of error is Unable to Download
Me: i dont see how that would be an adobe problem?
Charles P.: I understand, but it appears that the reason for the download issue is because of the license error the license is related to the Adobe Digital editions software. I understand how this could be confusing but it's due to the authorization of the ADE software. Adobe would need to correct your account issue with the license
Me: ok but i thought this was a free license from adobe??!! this is just a digital editions reader, right??
Charles P.: That is correct it is a free license but your account has to be associated with one license and yes the Digital edition is a ebook reader that our ebooks use for you to view

Well, just for the halibut I tried opening the book again today and , GLORY BE!, it worked.
Guess it may have taken overnight for Adobe to OK my license to their free ADE software. Also works now using Bluefire app as the reader on my android phone, although it was a pain
to get the book file in the right file folder for bluefire to see it.
I hope that time also heels the issue with all other Error Getting License users.
