My 27 inch imac has just started acting weird, the thumbnail images and folder on the desktop have disappeared although the titles are still visible. When I open a programme the programme windows are all black and the drop down menus just show random

When I tried to open the web browser the browser flashed black and white at start up, then all the applications when i open a new window are completely black, I am unable to view the drop down menus as the come out as random pixels. This happens to all new applications i have been able to open. The document window opens as plain white but if you click on it  it opens a document even though you cant see any thumb nails. Some of the documents are open as normal images/files. Having been a mac user for 10 years i have never seen anything like this before, any ideas or suggestions

I have started running a virus check.
There are no viruses for OSX.  Uninstall the software, repair permissions and restart your computer.  Especially if it's Norton's.  It's known to cause problems.
To rule out a hardware problem, run the hardware test:  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11342 OS X Mountain Lion: Use Apple Hardware Test and zapp the PRAM:  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11342 OS X Mountain Lion: Use Apple Hardware Test.
In the end you may need to lug your iMac down to your local AASP or an AS.  Diagnostic testing is FREE!
i have had a mac in fact it is 17 years.
You got me beat by 3 yrs.

  • TS4123 Whenever I open the iTunes store, the home pages of all of the sections (Music, App Store, Films etc) are black. They still have clickable hyperlinks, but I can't see what I'm clicking. Any pages accessed through the drop-down menus or by randomly

    Whenever I open the iTunes store, the home pages of all of the sections (Music, App Store etc.) are BLACK.  They still have clickable hyperlinks, but I can't see what I'm clicking.  Any pagess accessed through the drop-down menus (even iHelp) or by randomly clicking I can't see.

    Thanks but it's just my desktop that doesn't see it though.  My notebook sees it everytime, even at the same exact time that my desktop doesn't see it.  For example yesterday when I was typing up this post, I was typing up the post on my notebook because my desktop didn't see the router.  I don't think it has anything to do with the router actually, but I wanted to see if anyone on here has encountered this issue before.  Other forums have similar issues but I've tried all of the fixes I found elsewhere and they didn't work.
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks!

  • Black dots in drop down menus and in previews.

    I just upgraded my Mac to 10.9.3 and i have these weird tiny little dots appearing in my drop down menus and when I open an image in Previews. Actually, some images just look crazy in Previews with giant squares all over them. Any idea how to fix this? I have this same operating system on an older computer at work w/out this problem.
    OS X 10.9.3, 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5

    Is it only Preview that you are seeing this problem? If no, then it could be a hardware issue. Make a Genius appointment. Troubleshooting and analysis are a free service at the Genius Bar.
    http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
    I am already running 10.9.3 so am not sure what good that would do
    Running the combo updater often fixes odd issues. It's easy to do and certainly don't hurt.
    MORE INFO ON WHY RUNNING COMBO FIXES ISSUES
    Apple updates available from the Software Update application are incremental updates. Delta updates are also incremental updates and are available from Apple Downloads (software updates are generally smaller than delta updates). The Combo updates contain all incremental updates and will update files that could have become corrupted.
    Combo updaters will install on the same version as they're applying--no need to roll back or do a clean install. So if you think you've got a borked 10.9.3 install from a regular update, just run the 10.9.3 Combo Updater on that system.
    "Delta" updaters can only take you from one version to the next. For example: 10.9.1 to 10.9.2. If somehow the 10.9.2 is missing something it should have, and that something isn't changed between 10.9.1 and 10.9.2 it will still be stale after the delta update.

  • Bug? Text field & Button are still visible when solid-filled rectangle is placed on top of them

    Adobe Live Cycle 7.1
    It cannot work when i tried to make the text field and button invisible without JavaScript:
    1. Create a text field with any default value and button.
    2. Create a filled color rectangle.
    3. Set the rectangle on top of all objects (right click it and select "bring to front")
    4. View in Pdf.
    5. Result:
    Text field's caption and border are invisible (covered by rectangle) ,but the text field's raw value and the button are visible.
    Is this a bug?

    It's difficult to tell. I can see what you're trying to accomplish but it's possible that Acrobat is giving priority to fillable fields over static objects (such as the rectangle) regardless of z-order (i.e. "bring to front", "send to back"...).
    You can make objects invisible without having to write any script by selecting the objects which should be invisible and setting the Presence property, on the Object palette's Field tab, to
    Invisible or
    Hidden - Exclude from Layout. The former means the objects won't be visible but they will still be a factor in the way in which objects are placed on the form while the latter means they're totally hidden from the form.

  • I have my home page set up fine, but when i open a new tab it loads "delta serach" instead of the old layout of my most visited pages.

    something has reset my new tab page to delta search, i want the original layout back with the page thumbnails of most visited pages that i had before. please help. very annoyed at delta for taking liberties in my browser settings.

    Type <b> about:config</b> in URL
    *Search <b>browser.startup.homepage</b> and change the value to <b>google.com</b>
    *Search <b>browser.newtab.url</b> and change the value to <b>about:newtab</b>
    *Uninstall the delta search from Extension/Toolbar
    In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:
    #From the Firefox window click the Firefox button at the top left and select ''Add-ons'', or, if the Firefox button is not shown, click the ''Tools'' menu and click ''Add-ons''.
    #Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the ''Extensions'' button on the left side of the window.
    #You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.
    #To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the ''Remove'' button. You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.
    #Note that some add-ons require a Firefox restart to be removed completely. To perform a Firefox restart after the add-on removal, click the ''Restart now'' link in the message.

    That's what APDivs do.  This is the single most common problem new people have with web page layouts.  DO NOT use positioning.  You don't need it.  Start over.  Learn to use CSS floats, margins and padding to align elements.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Is there any way to close download windows that remain all black and open after the downloading ?

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
    Please continue here: [[/questions/968842]]
    </blockquote>
    Hi,
    I have my download windows that remain black and open after the downloading achieved. The only button active is the red cross but seems to be inoperative...
    I can have couple of them open at the end of the day at the same time.
    I have already tried to uninstall/resinstall but the problem remains...
    For info, i am running firefox on a Mac OS.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Cheers,

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • I ran Advance System Care 3 Disk Optimizer program and now my drop down menus are too fast. How do I slow them down

    I ran Advanced System Care3 disk optimizer program on my computer and now the drop down menus in Firefox open too fast. Mostly in the Bookmarks menu with nested folders. I went into the registry and changed all the "MenuShowDelay" data values back to 400(which were changed to 200 by the program. All the other windows programs drop down menus went back to the original speeds and are fine. Firefox did not change back to it's original delay speed. Where is the registry entry or configuration file for Firefox? How can I slow the menu down?

  • Lost all the text in my drop down menus

    All of a sudden I do not see any text in my drop down menus or on pop-ups. I tried to open Safari and got the pop up menu with a yellow triangle with a black exclamation point in it. It also had the three buttons at the bottom - one was blue - but no words.
    I can open Firefox but not Safari. I can open the System Preferences widget but all I see are the icons, not the names of the choices. No matter what application is open I do not see any words in the dropdown menu.
    First I tried zapping the PRAM. Didn't work. Then I booted from the startup disk and ran the disk repair utility, it repaired several things, but I'm still having the problem.
    The font on my menu bar has changed too.
    I installed x11 two days ago - not from the startup disk but from a website a friend helped me find when I didn't have my disk with me. I also installed Open Office. Should I uninstall those?
    Is it possible I got a virus?? I have no clue how to deal with a virus on a Mac. I haven't had any trouble with my iBook since I got it in November 2005, and I don't know any tricks.

    hi Rina!
    my apologies, i'm guessing from your name that you might be from a non-english-speaking location ... if so, check to see if this is an issue for you (also see other posts in the thread):

  • White and black dots in drop down menu?

    In all of my drop down menus there are little black and white dots that 'glitter' around as I move my mouse through it.  What is this, what is the cause, or just how do I fix it?

    Is it only Preview that you are seeing this problem? If no, then it could be a hardware issue. Make a Genius appointment. Troubleshooting and analysis are a free service at the Genius Bar.

    I am already running 10.9.3 so am not sure what good that would do
    Running the combo updater often fixes odd issues. It's easy to do and certainly don't hurt.
    MORE INFO ON WHY RUNNING COMBO FIXES ISSUES
    Apple updates available from the Software Update application are incremental updates. Delta updates are also incremental updates and are available from Apple Downloads (software updates are generally smaller than delta updates). The Combo updates contain all incremental updates and will update files that could have become corrupted.
    Combo updaters will install on the same version as they're applying--no need to roll back or do a clean install. So if you think you've got a borked 10.9.3 install from a regular update, just run the 10.9.3 Combo Updater on that system.
    "Delta" updaters can only take you from one version to the next. For example: 10.9.1 to 10.9.2. If somehow the 10.9.2 is missing something it should have, and that something isn't changed between 10.9.1 and 10.9.2 it will still be stale after the delta update.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 21.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will lose all personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • I am having some serious issues with firefox, i can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and I can't use any of the drop down menus on any site

    I am having some serious issues with firefox to the point of choosing another search engine. I can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and won't let me change it to my printer when i do try to select my printer it jumps right back to fax. The drop down menus do not work on any of the sites I go to. For example when purchasing clothes and you have to choose a size from a drop down menu I can't do it when I click on the drop down menu it doesn't work at all. I don't have a virus I ran my virus protector and no viruses are present. I don't have any suspicious issues going on with my computer so there has to be something in Firefox that is causing my issues. I tried internet explorer and I don't have any issues there. I hope you can help me because I love Firefox and would really like to continue to use it.

    Lots of issues there, main one getting fcpx going again, try deleting the preferences using the utility deveoped by these guys.
