Moving layers leaves the old position lines ghosted on the screen!

Hello guys,
I don't know if this is an easy fix or not but this issue has randomly shown it's ugly head and is very irritating!
When I move layers now from position A to position B, the old lines are still shown on screen in position A. Shown in this picture: http://i.imgur.com/6B1mcZq.jpg
Any help on how to remove this issue would be greatly appreciated!

Hi nskmartinez,
For me it sounds like a hardware malfunction Either these lines are caused by internal monitor or graphic card itself. Easiest way to check this is connecting an external monitor. If the same happens on external monitor its graphic card problem and the mainboard needs replacing.
If you need spare parts you can contact an authorized service provider in your country. The guys are able to order all Toshiba parts. Furthermore they can help you to replace the parts if you are not familiar with notebook disassembling.
Sorry for this more or less standard answer but here its user to user forum only and if its really a hardware malfunction you need professional help to get spare parts and replace them. Furthermore you have already tried the recovery disk that should always and work and if not => Hardware problem.

Kludge to make less, vim et al. leave the screen uncluttered enjoy!

I have written a script which leaves the screen uncluttered when finishing less.
This script is written for bash in the "good old terminal", but works well with
iTerm too. I wrote this script because less is opposite of more as less is so
much more as more is so much less.
I hope you will use this script and reap the rewards of using less while reading
textfiles, gaining from less's features, avoiding the cluttering which may have
made you disliking using less. You can make a copy of the script and modify and wrap
the script around any other characterbased program which clutters your terminal screen.
The script works by beeing placed in your ~/bin which I assume is before
/usr/bin in your $PATH where the binary less resides. You must modify the paths
in the script if they are different from that. (both the binary less, the script,
and the kludge.scr)
The script installs an interrupthandler which are triggered by changing the
windowsize. The interupthandler figures out what it must do to preserve
your screen when you exit less, and just does so, except for four characters
to the extreme left on one line. (wich may well be part of your prompt).
The interrupthandler gets its work done, by calling a kludge which are
relatively referenced in the script from your homefolder, -presumes ~/bin
- YOU MUST EDIT THE SCRIPT OTHERWISE. The configuration is like it is because
that is what it takes to make the correct things happen in bash.
I think this could have been accomplished much easier using another shell,
but most people uses bash, especially newcomers, and they deserve to have
it as easy as possible, while reaping the productivity gains laying dormant
in the Unix core, so I hope you will share the script with you liberally,
if you think it is worth the time and the work it takes to "install" it.
I hope you will give this script a try, as to make less work comfortably for you,
I have included an environment variable with all settings I like in less, which
you may modify.
Less was the first program I had that made me think "wow" back in 1986, beeing used
to the "more" command, - which was, and is so much less than less. You can for instance
invoke BBedit with a file you are viewing in less by pressing "v" if you have BBedit
specified in the $EDITOR variable. You can pipe some text to the clipboard.
Or you can pipe some lines out of a document you are viewing in less and into
a file while viewing, you can load it with multiple files, and search them all,
a programemer can make less work with tagfiles; you can have less create a logfile
of what you read and, you can even scroll backwards. All in all less is a very handy
tool which I think everybody would gain from using,in opposite to more.
Especially when it leaves the screen uncluttered.
Great care have been taken in order to make this kludge work properly.
Still I MAKE ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTIES ABOUT WHATSOEVER AND ANYTHING.
-USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
You may do whatever you wish to do with it, aside from selling it alone, but you
are free to do whatever that you please with it, aside from distributing
malfunctioning copies or incomplete copies or tinker with the Copyright notice

When loading video or tv shows it is taking as long as 14 hours plus - if I leave the loading screen it doesn't continue to load? So you have to wait without leaving the screen for 14 hours?

When loading video or tv shows it is taking as long as 14 hours plus - if I leave the loading screen it doesn't continue to load? So you have to wait without leaving the screen for 14 hours? Unfortunately - I've been reading that this lengthy download problem is quite common - although I thought I saw where someone had loaded videos the day before and then had them to watch later. So, my first rental - I downloaded it overnight - then we go to watch it tonight and it proceeds to start loading again...saying it will be ready in 14 hours and 21 minutes!!! Am I doing something wrong here? If anyone has advice - I would greatly appreciate it. This is the first apple product that I am disappointed with

Windows are out of reach - can not be moved back onto the screen

Hi
On one client, somehow the windows (i.e. Item Master) are opening like moved out of the main screen. At the top of the main B1 window I can only see the lowest part of the Item master and I am not able to grab and move it back.
How can I revert this and reset all windows to the default position?
Thanks
Franz

I tried this before .. without success .. I did it again. It works, under some circumstances. Here's what I found:
-If UDF's are attached to the window (i.e. ItemMaster) at the bottom and cascade is clicked, it moves out of the main screen and can not be grabbed and moved back.
-If UDF's are hidden (CtrlShiftU) then clicking cascade works and brings it back into the main screen area.
Seems to be a bug, IMHO
Thanks
Franz

I can't get my cursor to completely leave the screen, so when I'm watching videos on some services the video control menu stays at the bottom of the screen. How do I make it disappear so I don't have to see the progress bar and stop/start buttons?

When I watch certain video services like amazon or Netflix and enter full screen, when I move the cursor a video menu pops up on the bottom of the screen and won't disappear until the cursor goes offscreen. But my cursor won't go fully off screen. Just the tip remains visible so the video menu doesn't leave.

What happens if you simply click the trackpad in the movie area before the cursor disappears? Does that cause the video menu to disappear?

Windows moving spontaneously to the screen bottom - only title bar visible

I have this odd behavior on my MBP after installing Lion. I'll be replying to a message in Mail or moving a window in finder ... and suddenly the window disappears. Sometimes I find it down at the bottom left of the screen, with only the title bar showing. Other times, it will "walk" to the bottom of the screen on its own ... a "stutter step at a time," while I try in vain to stop it.
In Mail, this will tend to happen if I start typing in the reply before the Genie has openened the message all the way. In the Finder, it seems to happen if I move a window too quickly to the edge of a screen or across to my second monitor.
It's slightly maddening, and a real waste of time as I watch helplessly as windows march their way to the bottom of the screen. Any help is much appreciated.

Hmmm ... Replying to my own message.
After booting into safe mode, and seeing no problem, I began adding back my login items one at a time.
It appears that the issues is with MenuEverywhere and 10.7 or 10.7.1. Disable ME and all is well.
I've opened a ticket with Binary Bakery.

My macbook pro is going crazy, the mouse is moving all over the screen

I seem to have a virus or a hacker, my cursor is moving around voluntarily, the icons are being enlarged, and I cannot control surfing my files, what should I do about it?

Make sure that there is no Bluetooth mouse or keyboard with dying batteries nearby.
You have to take the computer to computer to the computer to have it checked.
Best.

HT4085 The volume icon won't leave the screen and I can't seem to reset the volume. Does anyone know how to fix this?

My iPad2 will not clear the volume icon from the screen no matter what I do. I've reset the ipad and nothing I do will make that icon go away and I can no longer control the volume. Am I missing something here, or does this warrant a trip to the Apple store?

The volume icon on the screen means that the pad thinks you are pressing the volume rocker on the side. Make sure that it is not being pressed by a case, or a dent, or anything else. Make sure it rocks back and forth freely without getting stuck.
If it moves freely, and if you have already done a full reboot, then a trip to the store may be in order.

Safari Widget will not leave the screen

I have been using several widgets that I created with Safari 3. Everything was going fine until today. One of my widget appears on my screen at all time. My other widgets works perfectly but this one always stays on the screen even if I pushed the F12 key and that all my other ones have disapeared.
Any idea how to fix this? I though of just deleting the widget and recreate it after from the web page in Safari but I don't know where the widgets created with Safari 3 are stored. Please help! I have this big square on my screen ad I can't give rid of it.

Could be a hardware problem and would need checking out, however it could also be a software problem in that it could be an app that's causing the problem that uses the ringer volume, such as Pandora, so first backup your iPad in iTunes then delete apps particularly that uses the volume control on your iPsd and see if the ringer symbol disappears for good then reinstall any apps that you deleted.

The ringer symbol will not leave the screen ?

Hello, I'm having trouble getting rid of the ringer symbol that is sitting in the middle of the screen. I'm also having problems with the volume not being able to turn down. I think this is all related. Any ideas?

Is There a Way to Leave the Screen on When Connected to USB?

I assume even if the screen is on it continues to charge so it seems unnecessary to let it time out and have to enter the password again and again. So, is there as way to set it to stay unlocked (screen on) when it's on USB, but time out and lock when on battery only?

No, there is not setting to differentiate when charging and when on battery.

Hi All,
In my module pool program in PAI modules I keep one information message after getting the information message the control should not go further program lines, it should stop there and selection screen should appear with input values the user will correct the input value and run the program.
How can I forcefully exit the another modules(program lines).
Thanks and regards,
Krish.......

Hi Krish,
If i understood the problem correctly, you need to use EXIT statement.
   IF flag EQ 'X'.
      MESSAGE i087(ztest) DISPLAY LIKE 'E'.
      EXIT.
ENDIF.
Depending on screen sequence use it.
If you want to skip some screens and come back to particular screen after some user action ;
you can use SET SCREEN 0 and then LEAVE TO SCREEN 0.
Please read F1 help for it.
I hope this will help you.
Regards,
Rahul

I just recalibrated my battery and now cannot remove anything from my dock. Don't know if this has anything to do with it or not. I have moved it up the screen and held it and still returns to the dock. What now?

I do not know if this has anything to do with my problem or not. I just recalibrated my battery and now cannot remove anything from the dock. I have moved it half way up and held it and it just goes back to the dock. Will not let me even put it in the trash. I am new to the macbook so would you please help me?

There is NO calibration on a modern macbook
Battery calibration, battery memory, battery overcharging, battery training, …all these concepts are mostly holdovers from much older battery technology, and on older Apple portable Macbooks ranging from early nicads, NiMh and otherwise; and these practices do not apply to your lithium battery and its smart controllers.
Current Apple portable computer batteries are pre-calibrated and are not to be calibrated
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1490
There is no battery calibration with current Apple portable Macbooks with built-in batteries. Lithium batteries have essentially a 0-‘memory’, and all such calibration involve the estimations fed to the system controller on the SOC (state of charge) of the battery over long periods of time as the battery degrades. The software based battery controller knows the battery's characteristics, or SOC and adjusts itself. This is why there is both no need and purpose to periodically deeply drain your macbook battery, since it doesn’t affect the characteristics of the battery, and further still deep discharges are something you should not do on purpose to any lithium battery.

My Ipad has been asking me to backup my icloud data....for two weeks. now the reminder notification refuses to leave the screen and i can do nothing on my IPAD, including switching it off.....i hve tried to access my PC and go to icloud and back up data

My IPAD has been asking me to bckup my info onto icloud for over 2 weeks. i was travelling and was unable to do the same. now that i am trying to back up the ipad using the ipad device.....the reminder notification on my screen is locked.......i cant get rid of it.....as long as the notification remains, i cannot even switch off the ipad or access any other screen or icon....i have now logged on to the icloud site using my pc but have been unable to locate where i may be able to sync my data remotely so that perhaps the notification on my ipad dissappears......any help? is there another way to do this?

We need to be clear here. Did you create a second ID, or just modify the single ID?
