Mac air screen not displaying correctly

I have a Mac Air 13' screen. Recently I was using it and someone put a lemon head on the keyboard and slammed the screen down on it for no reason.
The screen is now displaying a grey screen with a white vertical line down the middle. When I turn the computer off and then back on the screen is
exactly the same. When I type I cannot see anything that I type. I have a two year warranty on my computer. I am just wanting to know if there is anytthing
that I can do without sending it in. If there is not, who or what am I supposed to call to send in the computer to fix it. Also would Ribbit computers or another computer repair store, would they be able to fix my screen without me sending it in to Apple. Any information would be appreciative and very helpful! Thanks for reading!

  • IPad air screen not displaying correctly

    My iPad Air screen has recently started displaying with a pink hue in two of the corners, showing as a medium sized oval in one corner and a small circle in the other. There are also some vertical pink streaks that are less marked. It's really noticeable when the screen is displaying a white background. The only recent changes I have made is downloading the new IOS 8 update. There has been no trauma or damage to the iPad. It is still covered under the 1 year limited warranty. is there any way to fix this in my own?! Thank you!

    Hello there katelynlc,
    It sounds like you have some graphical anomolies on your screen that have a pink hue. If it is a software issue it will be resolvable by either first resetting the iPad:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Or backing up and restoring your iPad as a new device:
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    If restoring as new does resolve it, restore your backup and verify it still works. 
    If not, then the iPad will need service:

    All the very best,

  • Mac Pro Screen not displaying correctly

    I have had a problem with my mac which is i have recently bought. The problem is that occasionally the screen will become fragmented and be all over the place and i am unable to see anything and i have to restart the laptop. This happens at least twice a day and can happen when i shut the lid of the mac or i am on it. Another problem that i have is that a message often pops up stating that my mac has to restart and i'm not really sure why. If anyone else has this problem and has sorted it out please let me know.

    Your warranty includes 90 days of phone support. Call AppleCare, or make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested. Back up all data before you go.

  • Outlook web login screen not displaying correctly on Exchange 2007 service pack install

    Hello everyone,
    I believe our exchange server installed a service pack 3 update and after rebooting the server, we noticed that the Outlook web access login screen is not displaying correctly.  The page looks white with some black X's (I think that's where the
    pictures/background images used to be).  We tried to restart the ISS service with no luck.  I would appreciate any help you guys can provide.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    I have seen this issue in another similar thread, that issue was solved by re-creating the OWA virtual directory.
    Please try the following steps to solve this issue.
    Open EMC, navigate to Server Configuration -> Client Access, under Outlook Web App tab, double-click owa (default web site) properties.
    Then check InternalURL, ExternalURL, Forms-Based Authentication settings ect
    Open EMS, use Get-OwaVirtualDirectory get the list of virtual directories and identify the directory which is giving the problem.
    Remove it with this command
    Remove-OwaVirtualDirectory “owa (Default Web Site)”
    Now create it again with the following command
    New-OwaVirtualDirectory -OwaVersion “Exchange2007″ -Name “owa (Default Web Site)”
    Then configure the “owa” virtual directory settings like InternalURL, ExternalURL, Forms-Based Authentications etc… & check the OWA by logging with some test users.
    Best Regards.

  • Screen not displayed correctly using InteractiveViewer

    I have created a report that prompts the User for Start and End dates.  When the Prompt dialogue box is displayed using interactiveViewer the images are not displayed correctly.
    Does anybody have a fix for this problem ??
    Example attached.
    Ron Smith
    DBA

    My guess is that the toolbars don't show up when you view the reports either.
    There should be a virtual directory called 'crystalreportviewers' on your webserver. This is where you will find all the images supplied by the viewer.
    Right click on the image that is having problems and select properties.  This should give you location of the viewer.
    You should be able to trouble shoot this way be comparing the actual path with the real path of the missing images.
    Hopefully this will help.

  • Captivate 6 Slide Audio screen not displaying correctly

    Upon trying to rerecord a slides's audio today this screen opened up - I could record, but not save because the save button is not displaying.  I was able to record new audio on the same project on Friday.  I tried deleting and recodring new audio and the same screen came up.  I tried a different project - same thing happened.  I rebooted twice.  Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    If you check the address bar of your screenshot, you will see that you are in "C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application Data\Adobe" folder
    Might be a possiblity that "Local Settings" folder is hidden, click on Tools -> Folder Options, under View tab, you have the option to "Show hidded files and folders"
    You will see Local Settings folder once you click on OK, then you can access C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe and rename "Captivate 6.0" folder.
    Hope this helps !!
    Thanks,

  • Why does my passcode screen not display correctly, since ios7

    I STILL hate ios7 -- doesn't make me dizzy, but sure does hurt my eyes.  I find it MUCH hard to read the screens.  Here's an example of what I sure think is a BUG, with this new display design -- my passcode screen is SUPPOSED to look like the one on the left (and it occasionally/rarely does), but it USUALLY looks like the one on the right.  Keypresses are not in any way indicated -- you can't really tell what number you're hitting, and you can't see if you've accidentally hit it more than once, or how many you've entered.
    Am I the only one experiencing this?

    Okay, I figured out from other posts that, if I change from my background to an Apple-provided background, I don't have this problem.
    So the next question is -- WHAT is required of a custom background (due to the overload of whiteness/brightness in ios7, it's REALLY important to me to have my background be all black, to provide the contrast I need to see things) for it to really work, in ios7?  Why doesn't the all black background that I used, with no problem, in ios6, work anymore?

  • Variable Screen not displaying correctly

    Our BW install is BI 7.0, with BEx still in the BI 3.5.  We do not have any web-based reporting.  We have deployed the SAP 7.20 GUI with front-end patch 4.  One office is testing the installation with Win 7, Office 2010.  When executing a workbook from BEx Browser it takes a long time for Excel to initialize and then when the variable screen does appear there are missing descriptions.  A mouse over or a check of the variables will repaint that screen and populate the missing descriptions. 
    Has anyone experienced this issue?  I have tried to recreate this issue, but I have not been successful.  The installation has been redone several times and testing is consistent. 
    Thank you for your time.
    Karen

    Karen,
    Thank you for your reply.  The installation of the GUI was on a PC that was completely clean.  Since this is in a test environment, the IT office had that luxury.  They did a fresh install of MS Office and then the SAP GUI.  We ran the installation check earlier today and are reviewing the results to determine why this particual install is not working. 
    Thanks!

  • Screen not displaying correctly.

    I recently plugged my iPad in to charge.  About an hour later, I unplugged the iPad and went to use it.  When I turn the screen on there are small vertical lines dancing all over the screen.  I can barely make out my background behind these lines.  It looks like the touch screen is fine, however I cant see my desktop because of the lines.  Any ideas?

    Try reset iPad
    Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down together until you see the Apple Logo.

  • IPad Screen Not Displaying Correctly

    I have been using my iPad today and it was working fine. I switched off temporarily and a few minutes ago I switched on and all I got was a screen full of jittering wavy grey lines. I could make out the time behind the lines but that was about all.I tied to reset it, but the red line appeared at the top of the screen. I slid that and the Ipad tried to boot with the circular thingy in the middle of the screen but it failed and all I have is a black screen now.
    It is an iPad 1 which I have had for a year or more. I am away from my base in London UK and cannot get to the Apple store.
    The battery is fully charged.
    Is there anything I can do or has it gone to the iPad heaven.
    Surely it should have lasted longer than this.
    Anniel34

    Further update to my original question. The iPad goes to the apps screen and if I touch an app, it goes there but the colour screen is ful of white/grey shimmering lines so nothing can be properly seen.
    Is this info. helpful?
    Thanks

  • My iWeb page is not displaying correctly?

    hi
    I created a site in iWeb 08 (version 2.0.4. - 830A43), exported to a folder, and then uploaded to the web via ClassicFTP (Mac).
    Does not display correctly, but not sure why. temp URL is http://223.130.24.65/~vstacoma/Site/home.html
    The font appears black on black (when should appear white and blue text on black b/g as created in iWeb), and some images/logos out of alignment.
    I deleted the site in cPanel, cleared cache and uploaded again but no change.
    I thought perhaps this is an iWeb code issue?
    Would I be better with another web editor to standardise the code?
    Any tips really appreciated,
    Dan

    Not all of the files are being uploaded to the server.  The CSS file is one of them as well as the Scripts folder. You can see which files are missing by bringing up the Activity window in Safari (Command+Option+A) and check the list of files for the page.
    If you're using iWeb to upload the site try using the File ➙ Upload Entire Site menu option to force a complete republication.
    If that does'nt work publish your site to a folder on your hard drive and use  a 3rd party client like  Cyberduck to upload the file. Many have reported success with CD when iWeb has failed.

  • JPG images not displayed correctly in Bridge and Photoshop (Mac OS)

    (Note: I have copied the content of this query from the Creative Suites forum where I originally opened it.)
    I am using CS4 under OSX 10.4.11 on a PowerMac G5 Quad with 23" Apple cinema display. Images which have been captured as JPG are displayed fine by Preview, but when opened in Bridge, Camera Raw or Photoshop. the colours are all "washed out". The attached screen capture should give an idea of the difference, with the upper being Camera Raw (image settings) and the lower being Preview. My monitor has been calibrated and I'm using sRGB IEC61966-2.1 colour space in Camera Raw and Photoshop. The colours displayed by Preview are pretty close to "real life". I find it virtually impossible to adjust the colours in Photoshop to get back to anything similar.
    After opening the image in Photoshop without adjustment, and Save As JPEG with embedded color profile, Preview displays the new image the same as Photoshop. Save As JPEG without embedded color profile, and Preview displays this copy just like the original. It seems that Photoshop is making different (incorrect) assumptions about what color space to use when there is no embedded color profile. Shouldn't it assume sRGB like virtually everything else (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRGB)? Or is its interpretation of sRGB incorrect? How can I fix this?

    …If there is someone out there who has experience of obtaining decent colour management in CS4 on a Power PC, I would really like to know how you achieved it.
    That would be yours truly, and I hasten to reply because I may have some insights that can help you too.
    Just get it it out of the way, here's my setup:
    Photoshop 11.0.2 ("CS4"); VersionCue disabled and uninstalled.—2.5 GHz Power Mac (PPC) G5-Quad; 16GB RAM; mutant, flashed 550MHz nVidia GeForce 7800GTX 1,700MHz 512MB VRAM; ATTO ExpressPCI UL5D LP SCSI card; Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.11 and Leopard 10.5.8 boot drives; Spotblight, Dashboard and Time Machine permanently disabled; dual 22" CRT monitors; USB wireless 'n' available but connected to the Internet via wired Ethernet; 1 FW flatbed scanner; 2 SCSI scanners (one tabloid-size transparency scanner and a film scanner); various internal & external HDs; FW Epson 2200 and Ethernet Samsung ML-2850ND printers; 2 X Back-UPS RS 1500 XS units.
    I can unambiguously and in good faith represent to you that my color management, from capture to print, is as spot-on as anyone with any kind of setup can hope to achieve.  Unequivocally and without qualifications.
    Now, first things first:  Forget about trying to synchronize color management across the point applications lumped together only by Adobe marketing fiat into a variety of meaningless "creative suites".  Concentrate on Photoshop.  Do not try to use Bridge to synchronize anything.
    The "suites" are a totally artificial construct created by Adobe bean counters and marketing types.  The point applications (i.e. the individual programs clumsily bundled together, e.g. Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc.) are developed independently by separate engineering teams that are not only not in the same building, but in different cities, different states of the American Union, and even in different countries.  They have very little communication among them, if any, as evidenced by repeated posts in these forums by Photoshop engineering staff urging us, the end users, to let the other teams know in their own forums that a given problem exists and is actually affecting our work.
    Enough said about the cause of the problem.  The end result is that Color Management is at very, very different levels of progress and sophistication in each individual point application, with only Photoshop fully entitled to be considered state of the art.
    Secondly, a disclaimer:  I have been hanging on to my CRT monitors and take care of them as Jascha Heifetz used to take care of his Stradivarius.  I don't know what I will do if I manage to outlive the usefulness and accuracy of my CRTs (unlikely at this point).  I have despaired in futile efforts to bring the luminosity of any LCD monitor down to where I would feel comfortable calibrating and profiling it.  I believe my monitors are the foundation of my color management efforts.
    Especially if you have one of the extreme wide-gamut LCD or LED monitors, you'll face an uphill battle. 
    Be careful to avoid any version 4 icc profiles, whether canned or generated by your calibration software.  Stick to version2 icc profiles.  Ask the manufacturer of your calibration software/hardware if in doubt.
    Here are some not-too-recent, but thoroughly representative screen shots of the calibration results I obtain with my monitors, which I calibrate and profile often and regularly (I validate the calibration at least several times per month).
    In a nutshell, my color management practices and settings mirror those described by Bruce Fraser, Jeff Schewe, Andrew Rodney and Gary Ballard's site.  I have learned from all of them.
    My working color space is ProPhoto RGB.  I choose to work with PSD and PSB files.  As a long-time, rabid JPEG hater, I only rarely deal with JPEGs, using them sporadically to illustrate a point in this forum or elsewhere in the web.  My main output consists of prints.
    I only deal with tagged image files (files with an embedded color profile) and often recommend beating up with a baseball bat any moron that hands you an untagged file—figuratively of course, but I find the expression gets my point across unambiguously.
    Following is a screen shot of some of my pertinent settings:
    Note that I have never bought into the "suite" concept myself.  I do have and routinely use Adobe Illustrator 10.x, InDesign 2.x and Acrobat Professional 8.x, but they are all older, independent versions of each point application, licensed at different times.
    Be further advised, that the answer to many problems offered by Adobe engineers often is not to install VersionCue, or uninstall it, or at least disable it.
    Also, as outlined at the beginning of this post, concentrate on Photoshop, not on synchronizing applications that can't really communicate with each other, despite the claims of Adobe marketing hacks to the contrary.
    One big caveat, do not fall into this trap:

    You either want to learn, or you don't.  You either want to solve your problems, or you don't.
    When you start arguing instead of studying, questioning advice instead of following it and detecting where you went wrong, you're on the right track to nowhere.  That attitude will get you there fast.  Remember you are the one with the problem, and only you can acquire the discipline to learn how to solve it.
    Go ahead and ask me anything that is not clear, just don't argue with me please, and don't tell me why you think Fraser, Rodney, Ballard and I are wrong.  You see, I am not experiencing any problem that needs fixing.  I have an interest in helping you, but not in hearing about your speculations, theories or conclusions.
    Good luck.
