MacPro 7300GT and 20 in lcd flashing after full screen app quits.

hi all
Just got this problem today.
When an app changes from full screen back to the finder my Apple 20 in lcd starts to flash black-blue, power light goes full on too.
A reset solves the problem until another app quits from full screen.
For a split second I could see the finder - in a blue hue.
No force quit or quit could get back to the finder.
Any help? 10.4.8 8L2127

Any news on this one?
I've got the same problem: Sometimes if an application tries to change the resolution (e.g. redline but happens with other games too) it will start to show a blue screen for two seconds then switch off the display for two seconds.. in what appears to be an infinite loop. Mac Pro, 7300 Gt, 10.4.8 8L2127 and a 23" cinema display

  • MISSION CONTROL, LAUNCHPAD, and FULL SCREEN APPS (one month later)

    I'm pretty good embracing a new thing when it comes along.  I downloaded LION the day it come out, which was over a month ago at this point. On that day, I immediately found MISSION CONTROL and LAUNCHPAD both uninituitve and pointless.  Unhandy iCandy.   And of FULL SCREEN APPS?  Not necessary on an iMac anyway.
    So I quickly sought out quick solutions to 'fix' these new features.  Launchpad and full screen apps have the advantage that they can be simply ignored.  This is a good thing.  Mission Control, on the other hand, got in the way of a beloved feature for me:  what was once SPACES and EXPOSE.  That is, I couldn't simply ignore MC because I still needed the previous helpful features in Snow Leopard.
    My solution was kind of surprising and eye-opening.  It's complicated to explain but I thought I'd share.  This conclusion is likely best suited for someone not using a small screened Mac.  It turns out that most users (with big enough screens) don't really need Mission Control, Launchpad, Spaces, or Full Screen apps. 
    At all.
    Let's go through that conclusion, one by one:
    FULL SCREEN APPS
    If you have a relatively big screen (20 iMac for instance), why do you need Safari full screen?  Unless you intend to sit across the room from the computer, no reason.  And there's lots of bright empty space when you do this.  Do you need the Mail app full screen?  If you need reading glasses, maybe, but otherwise, nope.  I find it's easier just to stretch out an app pretty big and leave it at that.
    Full screen apps DO offer a nice feature which is making your desktop, menubar, and dock go BYE BYE.  I can see where sometimes this is a useful feature, but typically -- NOPE.  Typically I want access to my dock (to switch between open apps without the added step of cancelling full screen first), and typically I want access to my menubar so that I can glance up and see what time it is or find an app menu quickly.
    The only feature I find worthy of praise with full screen apps is that they hide the clutter on your desktop.  But there's an app in the Mac App Store which makes your desktop icons vanish with the touch of a button (CAMOUFLAGE).  I mean, what's the point of a wallpaper if you bury it with desktop clutter or eliminate it with full screen apps?  If it's a busy and distracting wallpaper, umm... you picked bad wallpaper.
    LAUNCH PAD
    LAUNCH PAD offers an iOS experience inside OS X.  At first I thought it was completely silly.  After a month now, I kinda get why it's there.  Kinda.
    You see, before LP, to duplicate it's functionality, you'd have to organize folders yourself.  Put folders of various apps together.  Place them somewhere in the finder heirarchy.  Then drag those folders into the part of the dock with the trashcan.  Then you could click them open and have access to similarly themed folders of apps.  The problem here, of course, is that unless you're a power user, you'll never do this.
    So Apple thought, AH-HA, we'll just drag into OS X a paradigm that users already get from iOS.  Clumping apps together any way you like them.  The misfire, if you ask me, is not allowing users to drag the new iOS folders straight into the dock when finished.  That is to say:  copies of said organized folders.  It's as if Apple's software people have complete contempt for the dock -- and are desperate to have users abandon it.
    My problem is that I like having folders in my dock of stuff I need.  It just works, as Steve says.  Going to the same EXACT place every time I need anything is more intuitive and graceful than ADDING an app called Launchpad that launches you into a different finder altogether.  Makes zero sense and THIS is why I say, like FULL SCREEN APPS, LP can basically be abandoned.
    By the way:  need proof that Apple has complete contempt for the Dock?
    MISSION CONTROL/SPACES
    A month has passed since MC was introduced and SPACES was eliminated.  I dare anyone to tell me why either is needed at all.  Before you get iMiffed, humor me for a moment and hear me out.
    The notion of SPACES was that it's a neat way to keep like minded open apps together.  I totally bought into this, back in the day.  So much so that I was iMiffed when it was gone in Lion.  But let's look at this closer.
    The REASON why we needed SPACES was that we could have WAY too many windows open at once on a Mac.  Right?  A big mess of windows covering each other up.  Suppose you're surfing in Safari but need iTunes?  But iTunes is hidden.  So what did you do?  You went to Spaces as step one, moused over to your iTunes space as move two, and then clicked it as move three.  Seems like a great solution until the day you discover that you could simply click on iTunes in the dock as move one and arrive at iTunes.  As one step.  Period.  Really simple, right? 
    Why have Spaces and apps dance around when you can just click the app you want and be done with it?  That's the critical observation to make in order to follow my entire line of reasoning.  Sure, it may look really cool and make Windows machines look like junk, but at the end of the day, why add two steps to something you might do 100 times a day -- switching between apps.
    So why OH why did Apple add Spaces?  Simple:  because too many apps were visible at once in one 'desktop' window.  So if you can build many new desktops, there might only be one or two in each.  Great solution.  Right?
    Wrong, as it turns out.  Because we still have the two extra steps.  It's a weak solution.  And it's in complete contempt of the Dock, which as it turns out, offers the strongest solution.
    The strong solution would be that only one app is visible in your Mac's window at all times.  Say you're in Safari.  Despite having 12 other apps open, you only see Safari.  Your dock tells you that you have other apps open, but nothing else sits in your window BUT the app you're using.  So you want to go to iTunes?  So click on it in the dock and Safari vanishes and iTunes emerges by itself.  No other windows.  What could be simpler?  (This app is freeware known as ISOLATOR.)
    If you download and try ISOLATOR, you'll say, umm, okay, but wait:  sometimes I do want more than one window in view.  Okay, fine, turn it off then.  From the handy menu bar menu.  I find that 98% of the time I need ISOLATOR on.  Mileage may vary.
    So let's recap.  One third party software removes distracting desktop clutter, the other removes distracting app windows.  Both can be toggled on and off from the menu bar.  One is free, one costs $2.  These two solutions remove the only real feature of FULL SCREEN APPS and make SPACES and it's newfangled cousin MISSION CONTROL pointless.
    Need that last one explained?  Well, what's Mission Control but a variant of spaces?  To invoke MC and switch to the needed window are those same two annoying steps Spaces added into the mix.  Nothing was fixed.  Plus, like spaces, you must invest time and energy organizing such spaces.
    Why bother?  And so I ask again:  can somebody who's read and tried the above carefully explain to me why Mission Control, Launchpad, and Full Screen Apps are really needed at all?  (Outside of small screened Macs.)  Doesn't the dock and these two sharewares together solve most problems?
    Am I missing something?

    I agree with everything you said about full screen apps, mission control and launchpad. For apps that made sense to run full screen, they already could under SL. Launchpad is totally unnecessary and Mission Control is a mere shadow of Expose and Spaces.
    However, I feel you have not given due credit to Spaces. The point of Spaces is to let one organise logical desktops for different tasks, not just a way to reduce the number of windows on display. For example, I have a Space for software development where I run Xcode and the iPhone simulator, a Firefox window showing perhaps documentation or some other websites pertaining to software development, a Finder window that is opened in the folder with my design docs. I have another Space where I have the remote login sessions, yet another Space with another Firefox window where I do general surfing and emailing. I can switch between these spaces using a keyboard shortcut, which is much quicker than having to lift my hand off the keyboard, move it over to the mouse, move the mouse pointer over the Dock, find the app and click on it, only to find that it has switched to the wrong window of the app.
    Without Spaces, organisation of my desktop is disrupted each time I want to switch task, whereas Spaces allows me to drop everything I am doing, go and do something completely different for a while and go back to my exact previous environment. I have a 27" iMac so am not short of screen space but I use Spaces extensively. BTW, switching Spaces using a keyboard shortcut is a lot faster on SL than the equivalent on Lion, thanks to the gratuitous screen animation of the latter.

    Since loading Lion, I've experienced much more instability than Snow Leopard. In particular, Mail crashes with regularity, full-screen apps seem to run slower and show the beach ball more often for longer, etc. I love the features, but I'm disappointed with the performance. Any help coming from Apple?  I've been sending them so many reports after crashes, that their file must be full!

    Summoning max. courage, I did what you advised. Here is the result. What does this tell you? My Lion 7.2 (mid 2011 iMac) has several annoying glitches (which I have so far tolerated through gritted teeth) but none that have actually stopped me working.
    BTW, I see several items involving CleanMyMac which I did not know I had. It is generally villified as a trouble-maker. Spotlight can't find an app. or a utility of that name. How can I get rid of what's there please? Just delete?

  • Help:How to publish a Flash with full screen HTML

    Please, guys, be kind enough to teach me how to publish a
    Flash with full screen size in HTML. I have tried to search the
    board, but so far no luck.
    Originally, I want my .SWF to keep changing its background.
    The solution I got was placing colored stage-sized rectangles on
    the bottom layer. Then I don't want the viewers to see the HTML
    area where I cannot seem to control smooth color changes.
    So, after I construct a Flash file with backdrop-color
    changing by the method I mentioned above, how do I publish it with
    full screen mode in HTML, as you can see
    here? Help!
    Thanks in advance, guys.

    Here's an AS2 and a AS3 version I got from David Stiller
    2 small details you have to add 1 in publish settings set Dimensions to percent 100 100
    and in the html set <style>body {margin: 0; padding: 0}</style>
    // AS2
    import flash.display.BitmapData;
    Stage.align = "TL";
    Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
    var tile:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap("tile");
    function fillBG():Void {
      beginBitmapFill(tile);
      moveTo(0, 0);
      lineTo(Stage.width, 0);
      lineTo(Stage.width, Stage.height);
      lineTo(0, Stage.height);
      lineTo(0, 0);
      endFill();
    fillBG();
    var listener:Object = new Object();
    listener.onResize = fillBG;
    Stage.addListener(listener);
    // AS3
    stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
    stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
    var bmp:Tile = new Tile(50, 50);
    var tile:BitmapData = new BitmapData(50, 50);
    tile.draw(bmp);
    function fillBG(evt:Event = null):void {
      graphics.beginBitmapFill(tile);
      graphics.moveTo(0, 0);
      graphics.lineTo(stage.stageWidth, 0);
      graphics.lineTo(stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);
      graphics.lineTo(0, stage.stageHeight);
      graphics.lineTo(0, 0);
      graphics.endFill();
    fillBG();
    stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, fillBG);

  • Is there a way to set up multiple displays to show different DeskTops and/or multiple Full-Screen apps independently?

    Hello Apple users/ develpers.....
    I have been thinking about this long and hard and it seems like there should be some way to display separate Full-Screen Apps and/or mulitple Desktops.
    This would be a key feature that would make Lion surprisingly more efficient than any of its predicessors.  However, I have gone into System Preferences>Displays and could find no way to page through and get different desktops to display.  I always could extend the desktop, but why do that when I can simply use multiple Desktops and assign them to specific displays.
    (For example While on the MacBook Pro I could be doing a project in FinalCut while External Display 1 could be displaying iTunes and Display number 2 could be displaying MS Word.  And between each I can switch between each app without changing the monitor display.)
    I could also seeing this being extremely helpful in DJ and/or PowerPoint presentations.  In a PowerPoint presentation I could use the projector/display to show the individual Slides, while on the computer/laptop I could control other materials.
    Or in a DJ situation, I could be controlling iTunes from the computer, displaying a set of animations that I created in Flash/ToonBoom or another animation program, while still being able to work off of an independent display to do my homework or major project.
    The whole purpose of multiple displays would be to have multiple access to each of those.  And so if there's another APP I need to control them, or if there is a setup command I don't know about, I'd like to know right away.
    Also, if Apple hasn't really implimented this (and their OS is designed to have these features) then I guess this'd be my first recomendation to them as something that they need to fix.  This alone could be the key to crippling PC.  Don't let Windows 8 have a back door!

    Not available, why not suggest it here.

  • How to maintain order of Full Screen and non Full Screen apps in Mission Control

    Hey guys, so i've gotten used to Full Screen Apps now, but as a power user who was used to Spaces, I like my windows to be in a specific order. 10.7.2 was great in that we can now re-arrange our screens in Mission Control, however, as soon as I do a restart, Lion reverts to having desktops on the left, and full screen apps on the right (i.e., it doesn't keep the order in which I left them before the restart). Now this really bugs me because by using the swipe feature, I want to know EXACTLY what app is to the left or right of me, as opposed to just turning on the "Order screens by most recent use" option, which I find to be too chaotic and unorganized. Has anyone figured out a way to do this? Below of pics of how I would like Mission Control to look like, and how it looks like after a restart.
    How I'd like for Mission Control to look like: (Desktops and Full Screen Apps intermingling)
    How Lion re-arranges Mission Control after a restart: (Full Screen Apps to the right)

    Shift-CMD-F toggles full screen off and on in Fx. Also, if you've put the Full Screen icon in the Firefox Toolbar, bring the mouse cursor up to the top of the screen. This will reveal the toolbar and you can click on the icon to return to normal.
    Get the icon from View>Toolbars>Customize. Drag it into the Toolbar somewhere.

  • Loadmovie for flash mobile full screen?

    I tried using flash mobile full screen with flash lite 2.1.
    How do I load a movie?
    I tried to embed a FLV, but when I tried to publish it I got
    an error.
    It said :
    WARNING: This movie uses features that are not supported in
    the Flash Lite 2.1 player
    Scene=Scene 1, layer=Content, frame=1:VP6 Codec requires
    Flash Player 8 or higher
    I tried it by creating the video as an swf, then using
    loadmove to play it but that did not work in
    the windows browser, using flashplayer 9. Would it work on a
    mobile phone, or
    is there something else I have to do.

    Hi Travistee,
    You can load a movie with a embed video using
    movie_mc.loadMovie("file.swf").
    Did you try to encoding the video with Sorenson Spark video
    codec? The error was the video encode feature.
    Try this sequence:
    1. File > import video
    2. Press Next
    3. Select the video
    4. Press Next
    5. Chose embed video in SWF and play in timeline
    6. Press Next
    7. Press Next again
    8. On encoding step click in 'Show Advanced Settings', select
    the video codec Sorenson Spark.
    9. Press next and finish.
    You can find video playback issues on the QTek 8310, 9000,
    9100 and i-Mate MP5 devices.

    It's a Magic Mouse question. I have set this up in Preferences by ticking Swipe between pages with one finger and also Swipe between full-screen apps with two fingers,  however when I try to do the latter, the 2 finger swipe will take me from the app that I am on to the dashboard only and not to my other open apps.
    I also find that Smart zoom only works with some apps, for instance not with Word docs or email.
    How can I correct this please?

    Just figured out it also does not work with the Mail app.

  • If I buy iWork on my iPhone, will I be able to install that same iWork through my apple account onto an iPad and be able to use that full screen? Or do i have to pay for a iPad version of iWork, where the screen settings and other stuff are different?

    I'd like to get iWork on both my ipad 2 and iphone 4 mainly for traveling purposes... Right now I lent my iPad to my dad whose in somewhere else now so I don't have access to the iPad. So, I was wondering if right now I buy iWork onto my iPhone, and then when the iPad comes home, can I install that same iWork I bought through my apple acout and not have to pay for another version, and the iPad iWork can go full screen beautifully and not ugly?

    iWork is universal, so it will work full-res on the iPad. This is true for any app which has the plus sign symbol (in the App Store in iTunes it will say "This app is designed for iPhone and iPad".

  • I was using the newest version on OSX 10.7.5 and I was in full screen mode and viewing a photo and it was impossible to exit full screen. This happened at 11:03pm on Friday April 12, 2013. How to fix

    I was using the newest version on OSX 10.7.5 and I was in full screen mode and viewing a photo and it was impossible to exit full screen. This happened at 11:03pm on Friday April 12, 2013. I deleted this from my apps and then deleted iphoto from my purchases in macbook app store the search it the app store and it says it has still been installed. What can I do to fix it?

    Well deleting it from your machine was not the way to go.
    Deleting it from your Purchases List was definitely not the way to go.
    So, I'm not really sure how you're going to reinstall it.
    But figure that out and we can try help. Contact App Store support. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store Window. They should be able to get it back on your purchases list so you can reinstall it.

  • How do i reposition desktops and full screen apps in the top of mission control?

    Full screen apps have there own space and so do desktops, how do i re-order them?

    Hi Anthony, hi ya guys!
    Actually you can do a bit of a trick to re-arrange a fullscreen apps but there is one thing which you should know - the first screen can't be a fullscreen app screen.
    So, here is what you can do.
    Example: you have 3 fullscreen apps running on your OS: Pages, iPhoto, Mail.
    So you go to Mission Control and you see on the top the first screen which is an empty screen or a screen with any opened apps (not a fullscreen apps) and also you see your fullscreen apps in a row of 3 screens.
    So talking about these 3 screens (windows). Your Pages screen is the first fullscreen app window, iPhoto is the 2nd and Mail is the 3rd but you want to make it the 1st. So to do this you need to go to your second window (iPhoto), and press twice the Mail icon in your dock (one click and then another click).
    It will make your 3rd screen with Mail to take a place of 1st screen and iPhoto will be moved to the end.
    It all should be done while you are in a MC.
    Good luck!

  • When I'm using Safari, acasionally the menu bar just disappears. I'm running the latest version of Lion and the latest version of Safari. This is not a full screen app problem. I have multiple windows open. This happens all the time! Firefox is fine! ???

    When I'm using Safari, ocasionally the menu bar just disappears. I'm running the latest version of Lion and the latest version of Safari. This is not a full screen app problem. I have multiple windows open. This happens all the time! Firefox is fine! What the ****? Please help!

    Right, like I'm trying to say, THERE IS NO SAFARI MENU bar. Example: I have multiple applications open, I click on a Photoshop window, the correct menu or title bar or whatever changes. Every other application window I click on brings up the correct "whatever" bar. If I click on the desktop, the "Finder Bar" shows up.
    Everythiing else, BUT SAFARI, works the same way since OS X came out.  This is ridiculous.
    I'm getting the vibe that Apple is trying to get rid of the finder.... this is the way wrong direction.
