Can hardly read tiny font on my Juno email page and can't find how to change font size or color, which is light blue.

That's it in a nutshell. I never had this problem with IE, but when I changed to Firefox suddenly there's all my emails listed in tiny blue font. Can't find anything on the Address Bar to change it.
When I open the emails, they're fine--but the page listing them is awful. And light blue font on white background makes reading it more painful on the eyes.

My wife had the same problem. Click on the tools icon in your web browser and go to the "zoom" feature. You can adjust the font size there.

IMac - I get a black, grey, light blue or white screen sometimes

This has never happened to me before.
I wasn't doing anything unusual (browsing the web) when suddenly my screen turned all black. I tried to do all possible things, like putting the computer to sleep, hit random keys, or wait a while, but finally I had to restart.
I'm not sure why this happened and was hoping it would happen again.
I started a game and then, suddenly, the same thing happened, but with a grey screen. As you can see, this grey screen also has vertical lines:

After restarting the computer, I launched the game again. A minute after starting it, the image of the game started to go crazy, until the screen turned all light blue, with the vertical lines again:

A few seconds later it turned white:

Does anyone know what the problem is with my Mac? Why does this happen? I thought it may be related to the game, but the first time when it went black, I was browing the web. I hope it isn't some kind of Virus. I know they're rare on Mac, but you never know.
I'm mentioning this because yesterday or so I downloaded an app, which is the Sendspace Wizard. Basically it's a tool to upload files to Sendspace.com. It's by far the most honest file sharing service I had used, and I've been using it for 5 years now. But you never know... I had to download this app because I have videos of a concert of a friend, it's 700 MB and this app continues broken downloads. One of the files is at 99% but it doesn't list it as finished, it's stuck there. It's very strange, I thought I should mention it as it may be related. Usually I don't like all those uploading serives etc.
Another thing I was thinking of: the Mac was pretty hot. Usually it only becomes hot when I play the game that I have. But this time I wasn't. I heard that when it's too hot, it shuts down itself. So I thought it already did while I was browing (for whatever reason, maybe because the Sendspace tool was uploading all day long already and thus the computer was tired?) and then as I launched the game it turned it off as well because it became even hotter.
Here the specs: iMac 27" Intel Quad Core i5 3.1 Ghz 32 GB RAM, OSX 10.8.2
All help is appreciated !!! Hope it's nothing serious

Anyone know? :(

MacBook Pro Repeatedly Loads Purple & Teal Stripe, Gray, Light Blue, Bright Blue and Bright Blue Stripe Screens Instead of OS after Optical Drive Replacement by Apple (PICTURES INCLUDED)

17 inch March 26-29 (order date – shipping date) 2011 MacBook Pro, 256GB Solid State Drive, 2.3 GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, 1 processer, 4 Cores, 256 KB L2 Cache per core, 8 MB L3 Cache, 8 GB Memory (8GB 1333MHZ DDR3 SDRAM - 2X4GB), AMD Radeon HD 6750M Video Card, Intel HD Graphics 3000 with 512 MB total of VRAM. 110 GBs of free/unused disk space remaining.
Full Specs are in subsequent post.
The issues described in the title continue even after I’ve reinstalled the operating system twice (Snow Leopard) and installed Mavericks (which is working fine and even faster). I’ve tried many commands to repair this.
If anyone has experienced any of the symptoms above or below, your advice and response will be much appreciated as well as marked. These are the details:
My Early 2011 MacBook Pro has had the typical blue screens, screen freezes and graphics issues since I bought it about three years ago but nothing like this and NEVER any load issues until about a month ago. That was when my superdrive replacement was put in.
Since then my MacBook Pro will go into hard freezes or kernel panics. Then I’ll have to power it down manually and power it up manually. It’ll then refuse to load the OS until after multiple tries. It started out just 2 or 3, then 4 or 5, then 6-12, then 20. Now it takes over 30 boots to load the OS. These boot issues also occur even if it doesn’t freeze, i.e.: when I shut it down or restart it naturally (via the Apple menu, etc.).
95% of the time it’ll load to a gray screen instead of the OS. 4% of the time it’ll load to a light blue screen. Then there are the others: the first time this happened it loaded to the striped purple and teal screen shown in the picture. This happened the next four times then intermittently for about 5 or so more times.
It also loaded gray flickering screens. Flickering screens also occurred right before it froze and had to be manually powered down and up. Then it began to load regular gray and light blue screens and all flickering screens stopped. And then bright blue screens a couple times intermittently for a few days, sometimes with lines. Sometimes it’ll load to a blank/black screen as well. I’d reset the NVRAM and SMC but it still continued, happening multiple times a day, each time taking more and more hard shut downs and hard power ons to finally load the OS.
Until I installed Mavericks, every time it finally loaded the OS Finder began indexing. After Mavericks this has occurred 95% of the time.
After talking to Apple Support they had me do a NVRAM and SMC reset again over the phone. The MacBook Pro refused to load the entire time we were on the phone. After the call it got worse. It froze over 6 times that day and at worse took over 30 boots to load the OS.
I finally had time to deal with it the next day when it froze again. After over 25 boots it loaded and I put in the Snow Leopard OS dvd and ran Disk Utility. I verified the hard drive and it said it was fine. Repaired the disk anyway and it gave this message at the end:
“Updating boot support partitions for volume required”.
Next I tried to start in safe mode and it just hung up for hours. Then started up in single mode and it loaded the OS. It then loaded normally for three times in a row. I reinstalled Snow Leopard. Everything loaded normally. I waited an hour or so and then I downloaded Mavericks. 5 or so hours later Mavericks was installed. Everything hardware wise was fine for a day and all software issues were easily fixable incompatibilities. My Mac was even faster with Mavericks. However, Photoshop did give a perhaps relevant message:
“Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturer’s website for the latest software.
GPU enhancements can be enabled in the Performance panel of Preferences.”
(I have OpenGL enabled in Photoshop and it was already checked when this error occurred).
Two days ago I went to Disk Utility to repair permissions while logged in to a non-admin account. Verified and repaired the disk, then verified permissions. Everything fine. After repairing permissions however, it gave a weird error box:
"Unapproved caller, SecurityAgent may only be invoked by Apple software".
The box stayed “stuck” in the Disk Utility window. My MacBook Pro then failed to do anything. I manually powered it down and up. It loaded to a gray screen with the error message box again: "Unapproved caller, SecurityAgent may only be invoked by Apple software".
It then refused to load anything else but this message box on a gray screen even after rebooting it multiple times in safe, verbose and single modes and after resetting the NVRAM and SMC. I went online with an iPad and entered in the error and got some advice. I tried to run fsck and erase the /var/folders/ via single user mode but it still loaded to a gray screen with the error message. I just decided to skip to the end and Cmd-R loaded into recovery mode and reinstalled Mavericks again. That worked: the message has not appeared since.
Some people have said this error is related to a hard drive cable failure. I know that this cable was tampered with during the optical drive replacement procedures because I watched them do it.
Everything was fine for a day. Then yesterday my MacBook Pro froze while trying to open a VLC file. It took 12 boots to load the OS. I tried single mode once and verbose mode once. 10 times it loaded to gray screens, even in those mode. A Safe boot lead to a bright blue screen. Finally reset the SMC and it loaded on the 12th time.
Just five hours ago the same thing happened except it took over 30 boots to load the OS. Single, verbose and normal boots, NVRAM and SMC resets lead to gray screens. Safe boots lead to bright blue screens with and without lines (see pictures). Finally loaded on a normal boot.
I know I should have tried safe booting, verbose, single and recovery modes, disk utility, fsck and other command methods earlier this month but in the end, these methods have not solved the problem anymore than resetting the NVRAM or SMC.
There seems to be conclusive evidence that it’s a hardware problem, stemming from last month, the FIRST AND ONLY time my MacBook Pro was opened up. Maybe it’s the hard drive cable, but it could also be the graphics card and/or logic board (something that’s always been defective on this MacBook Pro, in my opinion). Many early 2011 MacBook Pro owners have given evidence to the latter possibility online.
The first time it started it seemed to stem from me using iPhoto and Photoshop a lot. I had both running continuously for about two weeks. This is another reason for suspecting the graphics card/logic board is at fault (in addition to three years of screen/graphics glitches). And since the card is soldered to the board and the board connected to the cable...I also have serious battery draining issues, something else that got bad after the Apple Superdrive repair. And the battery is connected to the board...
Also, since downloading Mavericks, windows from every app get blurry/fuzzy when I scroll or zoom in. I have read that this is happening to a lot of folks though for various reasons.
I guess it could always be the hard drive. I just don’t know. I’m taking it in to Apple, but can't right away because it’s not local. I know they’ll be able to run a test on the hard drive. I wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem (especially the purple and teal striped screen) before they start poking around, possibly creating another problem that goes beyond my Apple Care Plan allotment.

How can I change the color of all folders from light blue to another color?

My computer was just upgraded from Tiger to Leopard, and now all the file folder icons are pale blue on the desktop and elsewhere. My desktop is green and those light blue folders do not look good on a green background.
How can I change the color of the folder icons to another color?

Hi ys,
You appear to have taken a wrong turn on the information highway and would up in the backwater known as the AppleWorks forum. This is a place for discussion of issues and techniques connected with the now discontinued Apple productivity application AppleWorks.
Yours is a System question, concerned with how to accomplish something in the Finder, part of the Mac OS X software you recently upgraded. The question will be better served in the Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard section of discussions. The link will take you to that section, where I'd suggest using the Finder and Dock forum.
Regards,
Barry

Can anyone tell me how to fix my iPod. I was updating it and I turned it off in the middle of the update. I tried to put it through a recovery on the iTunes but it keeps giving me 3194.When I turn it on it will go to a light blue screen.

Hello. Today, I was updating my iPod Touch 4th Generation to iOS 6. I unplugged the iPod when it was during the installation because it appeared to be frozen. Now the iPod is stuck at a light blue screen even after I reset it. How do I fix it?

You will need to do a DFU restore by holding the home and power buttons down (while the device is plugged in to your computer) until the device's screen goes black and as soon as the screen goes black, count down from 3 and release the power/sleep button, but keep holding down the home button. Then, iTunes will say the iPod needs to be restored. The restore process will take some time and even though the iPod may appear to be frozen, don't interrupt the restore.

Firefox always shows text fields in light blue. Can't fix it. Help plz. Hate using IE.

Some web text fields I can type in and I don't see the text just a light blue bar in the field. Other text fields I can see the text I type into them but all the text fields are always light blue. I tried un-installing and re-installing many times. On a fresh install the problem goes away for a day or two then it comes back and there is no way to get rid of it that I know of unless I reinstall. And that only fixes it for 24 to 48 hours or so.

When creating a fillable form and saving it as a pdf, the default color of the data fields is a light blue. How do I change the color to something else that will copy better, e.g. a light yellow?

When creating a fillable form and saving it as a pdf, the default color of the data fields is a light blue. How do I change the color to something else that will copy better, e.g. a light yellow?

It's probably the fields highlight color of the application, which you can change via Edit - Preferences - Forms.

Love Safari's new look, but on my 17-inch MacBook Pro the font on most pages is partly or all in an insipid light blue. I've tried changing all text to black on white to help my 83-year-old eyes, but no luck so far. Any tips?

This is my first time using this site, but it's helpful so far. Not sure if I need to retype the wording in the Discussion box above, but will do so just in case.

The simplest thing to try is a reset.
With Safari running, click on Safari in the menu bar and select Reset Safari ....
If that does not work, go to Safari / Preferences / Advanced.

Why do I have a light blue screen randomly appear?

In the middle of using my MacBook, a light blue screen randomly appears. It disappears if I shut the screen and then open it again. It was happening every few months, now it's happening a couple of times a day.

Hi, got exacly the same problem, the screen turns light blue every now and then especially when watching a video on the internet and I can't shut it down. Well, I noticed that it was happening when the mac book pro had been running for a while and was particularly warm, then one day I pointed a fan towards the device to cool it down and after a few minutes internet came back. I do the same thing all the times the screen goes off and I always sort it out, it must be about overheating.

Getting light blue screen during startup for 3-5 Seconds

I get a light blue screen during start up for about 3-5 seconds. It shows the spinning image for loading, once its done that goes away and then it goes light blue for couple seconds then back to the white page with the apple logo then brings me to the user login page. It also takes longer then usual to start up, load dock and the menu bar. I've read around and it seems people are saying its normal? but this just started happening.

Which model Macbook Pro do you have?

Light Blue Screen followed by nothing

Hi there,
I'm wondering if anyone can help me solve a problem i'm having with MacOSX 10.3 and a iBook G4 which I recently purchased.
The iBook G4 boots the Apple Hardware Test cd fine and I'm able to test the hardware which all passes (Logic Board, Memory, Mass storage etc), however on some occassions when I try to boot the install disc's which came with the unit it will begin to boot it and then stops with a light blue screen (which is seen as the background for the MacOSX install). Sometimes I do have success and it will load the setup as it should but other times its just as I describe it. There is no cursor or spinning colored disc on the screen either when it happens. It just a blank light blue screen which doesn't do anything.
Is this a logic board fault or a HDD fault?

Hi cornelius and ali brown,
Thankyou for your replies. I'll have a look at those articles and see how it goes.
In response to your question Ali, that was my post. I just felt this type of question was probably more relavent in here.
As you may know I was able to get the installation going after running in verbose mode however the install only required the first disc of 3 - 4 (can't quite remember). I did also select "Archive and Install" which saves the current installation for future access. (someone suggested it on this forum or another one)
After the first CD was done, it asked to restart the machine. I clicked restart and it booted fine (no longer get the kernal dump on bootup) however it doesn't continue after that. I simply see the Apple logo plus the spinning gear which then goes to a light blue screen and stays there. It is similar to when I tried booting from the install disc.
It does the same thing in verbose mode and I can't see anything from the startup process which might be causing the problem.
I then left it for a few days whilst I did a bit of research into the problem. Then the other day I booted the iBook and it began to continue with the installation. It asked for disc's 2 and 3. After finishing disc 3, the installation was complete and it began to show the welcome video which then turned into a cube which froze about 45 degrees into its turn and wouldn't respond. The sound was also repeating (just your common lockup).
I powered the unit down and attempted to do a clean install but it began to do the same thing as before (boots install disc and loads a light blue screen). Verbose mode does the same thing at that point so I was unable to perform a clean install.
Hope there is enough info provided to help better determine what is causing the problem.
I'm using Panther 10.3, Tiger is not installed (I didn't correctly list the details for the iBook - apologies for that).
I can boot the Apple Hardware Test cd fine which works as it should. I have no problems with that. However, whenever I try to boot from the HDD it just does what I described above. I see the Apple logo with the spinning grey gear which then goes to a light blue screen and not much more happens. It also does the same with the Panther install disc's. However, it works on some occasions.
The disc's are the ones which came with the unit so I can only assume that they are original system install disc (grey in color).

Light blue "finger" print spot on display

I have a 20" Cinema display.
I have noticed a light blue area on the display.
You can see it if the background is white.
I noticed if you have a white gradient into red, as you pass this through the affected area, this spot is darker in the transition area.
These aren't dead pixels but it looks almost like a finger print between the back lighting and the LCD.
Any idea what this is and if it can be fixed?

Without a picture it is hard to determine if this is the effect you are experiencing. Check this link and if so you will want to have it serviced before you warranty expires:

I had this effect on a Dell laptop and they replaced the LCD assembly for me as a result agreeing that it was defective.

I have the mac book air and when I turn it on its a light blue screen with a flashing folder with a question mark on it and I cant get past it. Anyone know about this?

The MBA is trying to tell you that it is not able to find a bootable system
Either the file is corrupt or access to the storrage has failed
I would start by seeing if it will boot with Command + R depressed
