Missing Display Setting after 10.5.6 Update

Several days ago, I updated all three Macs from 10.5.5 to 10.5.6 -- each separately via Software Update. All went smoothly. However, with the mini, I have an HP w2007 20" monitor that prefers a setting of 1680 x 1050 @ 60 Mhz. Under .5, not a problem. However, all of the 1680 x 1050 settings are missing from the Display control panel since the .6 update. Does anyone have a clue as to how I can get the 1680's back?

That was not successful in terms of reacquiring the 1680's. The update went smoothly. The list in the settings skips from 1600x1200@100Mhz to 1920x1440@60Mhz. This is the same as before the update.
Any other ideas? I did see a mention on MacFixIt that others have experienced this problem but there were no suggestions regarding a fix.

  • Display Issue after 10.9.2 update

    After updating my Macbook Pro with Retina to 10.9.2 -- My display flickers for a second after sleep and or blank screen and then goes back to normal. Has anyone else been having display issues after updating?

    Yes similar problem here: I have a MacBook Pro, 15 inch Retina, Mid 2012, and when I connect a secondary display via HDMI (and also HDMI-to-Thunderbolt) then the external monitor becomes the main display.
    I have not figured out on  how to switch back to former settings. My guess: it's a bug. A quick search confirms that many others have secondary display issues since 10.9.2

  • Excel & Word file don't display text after 10.6.4 update

    Installed 10.6.4 update last week on an iMac and the cells within my excel sheets went blank. The data is still there but do not show up on screen. Tried several variation of start up and even reinstalled Office only for problem to exist still. New documents will display text but most of my existing office documents appear blank.
    So... Today I reinstalled snow leopard and my text was back & displaying until I ran the OS updates. Every thing was fine until 10.6.4 and poof!!! there went my text in office. This glitch even effects some existing word documents. Graphic, images and pdf's don't seem to be effected. Any body else having this problem?
    Just dumb founded....

    I've been experiencing the same issue. I upgraded to 10.6.4 and I lost several fonts. The interesting thing is I also lost several power point images I had created. Shapes and lines were missing even though they did not involve the offending fonts, at least not directly. There was text elsewhere in the image that used it. Why this should obliterate the rest of the images I don't know.
    The three offending Fonts for me were:
    1) Times New Roman
    2) Arial
    3) Brush Script MT
    Anywho, I managed to fix this on my machine so I'm posting how I did it here. I'm not so sure as to the why, but here it goes.
    On my machine I have 4 font folders
    1) -> System -> Library -> Fonts
    2) -> Library -> Fonts
    3) -> Users -> Me -> Library -> Fonts
    4) -> Applications -> Office X -> Office -> Fonts (yes, I'm still running Office X from 2000)
    Inside of the Font Book application, it was kind enough to point out I had duplicate fonts. Some of these were the fonts in question and others caused me no troubles. Go figure. Anyway, disabling one or the other of the duplicate fonts did not fix the problem.
    Here's what did, though. In my case the duplicate fonts existed in the second of the font directories above (henceforth referred to as Font2) and the third of the font directories listed above (Font3). I browsed to these directories and copied the fonts to my desktop to have a back up. Back in Font Book, I told it to remove each instance of the Arial and Times New Roman fonts that would not display correctly in Excel (for the moment, I left Brush Script MT alone, kind of like a control)
    Now at this point there were no Arial or Times New Roman fonts in my Font Book. Turns out they were removed from Font1, Font2 and Font3, so good thing I have a backup.
    1) Opened up Excel. It did its font menu optimization thing and sure enough, I couldn't see anything.
    2) I close Excel.
    3) I double clicked on Times New Roman that I had in Font4. Font Book opened it and I chose to install it. It put it in my Font3 directory.
    4) I opened up Excel. It did its font menu optimization thing. Suddenly I can see Times New Roman again!
    5) I close Excel.
    6) I double click on the Arial Font from my Font4 directory. Font Book opens it and I install it to my Font3 directory.
    7) I open Excel, it does its font menu optimization thing and suddenly I can see Arial!
    8) I close Excel.
    Now at this point I'm wondering if my old font files got corrupted and because I was installing using the ones from my Font4 directory (which avoids the system directly) I was getting them back. So to test, I told Font Book to remove Times New Roman again, I go through the test of opening and confirming in Excel, and then I install the Times New Roman font from my desktop that I had copied out of the Font2 directory. Everything works fine in Excel. So it's not the file that was bad.
    I was also wondering if I needed to remove all instances of the fonts or if just one was causing the trouble. So I go back to Font Book and remove the instance of Brush Script MT that was in my Font3 directory. When I opened Excel I still couldn't see anything.
    I reinstalled the copy of Brush Script MT from the desktop and tried removing the other instance of the font, the one from the Font2 Directory. Excel still shows nothing. I then reinstall the associated font file from the desktop. Excel still doesn't like me.
    Finally, I removed all instances of Brush Script MT and installed at random one of them from the desktop. Suddenly Excel likes it.
    So I don't know what the problem was, maybe an associated was bad, but either way the only way I could get my fonts back was to remove all instances of the bad fonts from Font Book and then install the font again.
    In between removing and installing I would go into Excel where it would refresh its Font list at startup. Not sure if this had anything to do with it either.
    All my fonts now display correctly and all my powerpoint drawn images show up as well. I hope this helps someone else!

  • Why is ringtone in limbo in iTunes and missing from iPhone after last iOS 6 update?

    I have a ringtone that I purchased that has now disappeared from my iPhone 5 after the last iOS 6 update. If I look in iTunes (which is an abomination in itself and not intuitive in any way), in the On This iPhone tab of the iPhone page, with Tones selected on the left hand side menu,
    I see the ringtone "Stewie Mom Mom Mom" grayed out with a weird circle to the left of it . I have a second ringtone that is also visible there, with no weird circle.
    If I go to the Tones tab of the iPhone page, I see that Sync Tones is checked and it shows 1 tone synched...the one without the weird circle shown in Tones.jpg is actually on my iPhone, so that is the 1 tone. No matter what I do to try to manually sync the tones to my iPhone, Stewie Mom Mom Mom is never copied to the iPhone.
    Can somebody please tell me how to get this orphan ringtone back on my iPhone? What does the weird circle mean? I've gone to the iTunes store on my phone and also in the iTunes app on my computer and in both places when I view the ringtone in the store, it's acting like I never purchased it. It's not like $1.29 is so much that I wouldn't pay for the ringtone again, but honestly I don't trust that the ringtone won't be orphaned again and again, and I'm not just going to keep buying it over and over. HELP!

    This happened to me to.
    It took me a while to figure out a solution, but this may or may not work for you.
    Long story short, previous versions of iTunes used the Ringtones folder to store all tones, but now iTunes uses the Tones folder.
    (I had copied my library of music from one computer to another, where the old computer used an older version of iTunes. I assume most users aren't affected by this, because they normally just upgrade iTunes on their primary computer, and the upgrade process probably takes care of renaming the Ringtones folder to Tones)
    For example, my media folder is set to be:
    C:\Users\vincetg2\Music
    so all my old tones files were in:
    C:\Users\vincetg2\Music\Ringtones
    but iTunes was expecting them to be in:
    C:\Users\vincetg2\Music\Tones
    To solve this, I moved all the files in the 'old' Ringtones folder to the 'new' Tones folder (you should create it if it's not already there):
    then dragged the files into iTunes' Tones section:
    and then synced (erase and sync) the tones over to my iPhone:
    I hope this helps!

  • How to create a workflow that changes display setting after opening a URL

    I have never used Automator before but I am guessing this workflow should be pretty simple, but I need your help because I am hungover and my brain has been inactive for the last week.
    I want to set 'Put the display(s) to sleep when the computer is inactive for:' to 'Never' when I click on a favourite in Safari. The URL is tvcatchup.com which streams UK terrestrial TV online.
    Can someone please explain how to do this? Thanks.

    Much easier merely to turn off sleep before watching streaming video.
    BTW, I realise that tvcatchup is still in beta, but I am severely unimpressed with it!
    You can't play full screen without expanding the window, and it grinds to a halt every 3 minutes!
    Try
    http://zattoo.com/
    which is also free and perfectly legal, and works a treat with OS X.

    Remember that this is users helping users here, moderated by volunteers like me. Although there is some Lenovo presence, they can't patrol the entire community.
    Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling the Bluetooth drivers? Make sure Bluetooth is switched on (Fn-F5).

  • Missing Boot Camp after 10.6.2 update

    I have just updated from 10.6.1 to 10.6.2 through software update facility. I noticed my boot camp disk (a separate disk inside my my Mac Pro) is now missing. I can't see it in disk utilities or Tech Tool Pro. How do I find out if it is still there or physically broken. Luckily it's only used for testing websites so not urgent but can someone shed some light maybe?
    Thanks!

    what exactly do you mean? what do you see in disk utility when you select your whole hard drive? also, click on the partition tab. what do you see there?

  • My iphone 3G is missing the camera after i did an update, how do i get it back

    I just updated my Iphone 3G this past weekend and went to take a picture at a birthday party and couldn't because my camera app is not on my phone anymore, What is the deal? Where did it go and how do I get it back? This just *****

    Try this:
    Check that your security software and settings aren't preventing your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
    Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
    Confirm that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

  • Server Admin won't display services after 10.4.7 update

    Did combo updater from Server 10.4.4 to 10.4.7. Everything seems to be working – filesharing, Web, FTP. But Server Admin connects but then just sits there spinning. Won't show active services, etc.
    Workgroup Manager will let me administer accounts but Sharing tab is greyed out.
    Did I overlook something?

    You didn't mention what troubleshooting you tried.
    Did a restart help? (would point to servermgrd problem)
    Try removing the server from the list and re-add it.
    If you are running ServerAdmin on the server itself, try adding the server as 127.0.0.1 (eliminates dns issues) if you are running from another machine then enter the IP of the server.

  • Back from sleep display problem after 10.5.4 update.

    Hello,
    I have a macbook pro 2.4ghz intel core 2 duo 15" only a month old. I updated to 10.5.4 tonight and everytime i open the lid it powers up as normal from sleep / standby mode and the screen is black. I can hear the hard drive doing it's thing. I didn't have this problem under x.5.3.
    What i do, instead of selecting it to sleep or anything, i just use it, then just close the lid when i have finished using it.
    I have repaired the disk permissions also reset the pram and its made no difference..
    Any help would be grateful..
    thanks
    Stu

    Sorry i thought i would just add some details as it was late when i posted the above and clearly was far too tired ... lol
    Basically the problem is, i updated to 10.5.4 with the full downloaded installed ie not from software update. Since then every time i just close the lid, then come back to it and open the lid i just get a black screen. I can hear the HD spinning up as if it's all working.. the only way i can get the screen to come back is if i hard restart (hold down power button) and restart the computer.. i have noticed it does it more if the battery is charging, as i come to it this morning with a fully charged battery opened the lid and it was all fine..
    i had this problem on one of the updates i believe either x.5.1 or x.5.2 then it went away with an update..
    I have repaired the disk permissions and reset the pram by restarting and holding the apple key + alt RP and nothing has made any difference.
    Many thanks if you can help

  • Missing Library Folder after 10.9.4 update

    I recently competed the 10.9.4 Update on my MacBook Pro, and have since lost access to the Library Folder. It used to be located on my computer in the following.
    /Users/{User Name}/Library/Application Support/{Application}/{File Name}
    Has anyone had success in retrieving this folder? I am able to still save content to this folder, however it is not there for me to access the folder.

    Thanks benwiggy. I have just installed Illustrator CS6 and am working my way through the lessons and have not been able to locate the Preferences file until now ... have spent ages on the internet trying to find the solution. Many people were suggesting doing the "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES" solution. I was a little nervous doing this so carried on looking. Eventually found your suggestion of "Go To Folder and type ~/Library" and it worked! MANY THANKS!
    Btw I couldn't do it via the Show View Options and Show Library Folder - I wasn't able to see that option ....
    Anyway, thanks.

  • Missing carrier logo after 1.1.1 update?

    I upgraded to 1.1.1 last night and I was just noticing the AT&T carrier logo is gone! I can place and receive calls, but no carrier logo! Is anyone else experiencing this? I have restarted the phone and the logo is still gone. I don't have my phone hacked or anything; just one ringtone that I used iToner to place on the phone.
    Here's a pic, sorry for the bad picture quality...I'm at school and I just used photobooth to take the picture!
    CLICK!

    Try removing and re-installing the SIM card. That might do the trick. I'm not speaking from experience, just thinking that is the only thing you have not done yet. Who knows, it just might work.
