My iPod 5's screen displays strange letters (like the one's you'd find in a malfunctioning computer) and it has a bright rectangle in the center. I haven't dripped or damaged it.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

How can I display browsing history (like the "history" function in IE)

In IE when you click "history" you get a list of all the websites visited. In FF "history" only shows Bookmarks. Can I display my browsing history in FF?

So I just got my new iPod touch4g and it's been a few weeks and now all of a sudden my screen has been flickreing like the brightness is to high so I did put it for low then it stopped I restored it and the same thing again please help

So I just got a new iPod touch 4g from wallmart a couple weeks ago and now the screen is flickering and I assumed it was the brightness so I turned it down and it stoped. So then I turned it back up and it did it again I restarted my iPod still did it I restored my iPod still did it so what do I do HELP please

Correction: I plugged my iPod back into my mac, it backed up/updated etc. and now when I go to my music, it returns me to the home screen. What is going on!?

Does the ipod touch 4th gen's screen have IPS like the iphone 4's?

So I heard somewhere that the ipod touch 4g's screen does NOT have IPS.
For those who don't know what IPS is, this is apples description of it:
"The iPhone 4 Retina display uses technology called IPS (in-plane switching) — the same technology used in the Apple LED Cinema Display and iPad — to achieve a wider viewing angle than on typical LCDs. Which means you can hold iPhone 4 almost any way you want and still get a brilliant picture. That’s perfect when you’re sharing photos with a friend or moving your iPhone around while playing a driving or flying game. In addition, the Retina display offers four times the contrast ratio of previous models, so whites are brighter, blacks are darker, and everything is more beautiful."
Is this true? Because I also heard that the two main things people wanted from the ipod touch were the camera and the retina display. And those are the only two things that seemed to get cheaply upgraded. Does anybody know if the ipod touch 4g has IPS?

No need to double post! It has been said by Engadget that it is TN, but Apple has not to my knowledge released the specs. Only difference between TN and IPS is the viewing angle. A few hands on reviews that I seen said there was no distinguishable differences between their iPhone 4's and the iPod Touch 4 with the exception of the viewing angle.
I am amazed at how people will latch on to this stuff and make an issue about it, yet have never actually seen the freaking thing! LOL Just like no one has seen photos taking with the camera.
The iPod Touch 4 IS what it IS, folks will either buy it or not. I am booking that a lot that say they aren't going to buy it do anyway and of course this thing is going to be a big seller regardless of all these supposed poor upgrades.

I am having issues with the contrast on my macbook screen.

i have an older mac book purchased in 09' and when i am editing photos, they are extremely darker on my mac, then what they are on my camera, or other computers or my iphone. but if i reset my computer. say the background photo, it will look like it should for about 5 seconds, than it will change and go extremly dark. its almost like the contrast in the photo is increased. it isnt the brightness of my screen ive tried that. but it really is like the contrast has been increased on my screen its like that on web sites. photos, videos no matter what editing program i am in it is effected. it isnt constant either. i have times where it is completly normal for a while. and it will suddenly go dark again. and suggestions on how i can fix this?

Please boot in safe mode and test. Same problem?

How can I adjust the contrast of video on my MacBook Pro Retina so they don't look like they were filmed with an old sock over the lens?

I'd like to watch movies and TV shows, downloaded from iTunes or Amazon, on my MacBook Pro Retina, but they all look like they were filmed with an old sock over the lens. Daytime sequences look muddy, and night time sequences are incomprehensible with anything but the brightest objects rendered as black. I can watch the same files on my old MacBook Air and everything looks right, but no manner of tweaking seems to let me watch movies on my new machine.
I've tried adjusting the gamma. It's a bit better when gammas is set to 1.0, but I can't seem to set a gamma less than one. I tried using the Accessibility Contrast control, but it just lowers the contrast, swallowing my desktop into the dark abyss. I tried Applecare, but they don't have a clue. I tried the Apple Store. The "genius" confirmed that it is indeed impossible to watch movies shot anywhere but in the brightest sunlight on a MacBook Pro Retina, and it isn't just my machine, but every similar model in the store. He arranged for someone who really understands color profiles to give me a call, but Apple seems to have dropped the ball on this.
Is there some tool for stretching out the darker grays in Apple video? I don't want calibration. My impression is that my display, like the dozens I checked at the Apple Store are calibrated to make all dimmer grays appear completely black. I want uncalibration so I can actually see what is going on in the movies even if something is in a light shadow or shot at night. Hollywood has lots of trained technicians who can light and shoot night scenes that are quite comprehensible. I've watched a number of such scenes on my old MacBook Air. Now, I'd like to enjoy their artistry on my MacBook Pro Retina.

http://www.ifixit.com/ has directions for do it yourself. Also look at PRAM battery instructions, as sometimes this can fix optical drive issues.
You can get external or internal drives from http://www.macsales.com/
I also suggest in the future, take care of this problem while it is still under warranty. It may have cost you nothing.

"Mirror Display Button" like the original MacBook Pro?

ok long story short, my friend has one of the old 17" macbook pros and the screen died. We hooked up an external display, but had some problems getting it to work at first. (we could get a picture, but it was in extend mode, so the mac desktop was on the cracked screen that we could not see, and the monitor was just a picture of his wallpaper. I then found that if you push the (I think it was the F7 key) it would toggle the display from extend mode to mirror mode which gave us the desktop on the other monitor. We could then go into system prefes and set the correct resolution etc.
My question is, The new MacBook's and MacBook Pro's do not have this key. The only way to toggle modes is from within system prefs. But what if my screen died like his? Without the button to toggle my display, how would I be able to switch the mode if the desktop comes up on the macbook screen, and that screen is unusable?
Although no one probably ever uses that button, I can see it nice to have if you ever ended up in a case like my friend where we needed to switch modes, but could not see the screen.
Although there is not a button for this function, is there some time of hotkey or something that might do this? What does Apple recommend in this situation?
Regards,
Scott

Try command-F1 ?
Thanks! That works! Never knew you could do that!
PS: would you happen to know an equivalent of the F8 key on the old MacBook Pros? (the one that turned the backlit keyboard on and off?) I know you can do the same thing by holding the F5 key down until it shuts off, and then F6 to turn it on, but I wish I could have a one button solution like the old pros.

HT2905 My itunes looks nothing like the examples in this tutorial. I do not have "display exact duplicates" or "date added". Can someone please help me remove duplicate songs? Also, I downloaded two audio books and they are showing up in my song list.

'Show duplicates' is now under the 'View' menu. To see the 'Date added' column go to 'View options' from the 'View' menu and check it in the section under 'Stats'.
Click an audiobook once to select it and hit command-i (Mac) or control-i (Windows). Go to the 'Options' tab and set 'Media Kind' to 'Audiobook'.

My garageband can't be used because when I open a project (new or old) the program extends beyond the bottom of the display screen and I can't access what is below the bottom of the screen (like the record button). I know there's a simple fix, but what?

two things to try: either click the green "zoom" bottom at the topLeft of the window in the title bar, or go to your System Prefs and then Displays, and increase the resolution that is used

How can we tell if the iphone is already fully charged in ios7? Even if its 100% the thunderbolt icon is still displayed. Not like in ios 6 that we will know when to unplug the charger because there is an indicator.

How can we tell if the iphone is already fully charged in ios7? Even if its 100% the thunderbolt icon is still displayed. Not like in ios 6 that we will know when to unplug the charger because there is an indicator.

For those who seem unfamiliar with what is being asked:
On iOS 6 and older, just because the phone reached 100%, didn't mean it was Fully Charged. The way you could tell was the lightning bolt symbol that indicated the device was charging would change to an outlet plug when the device was not only 100%, but also stopped accepting further charge. This symbol switch would occur anywhere from 5-15 minutes after the device already was displaying 100%.
Now, on iOS 7, while it still reaches 100% with that same lightning bolt charge symbol, during the 100% point, it never switches to the plug symbol to indicate the charge period is totally finished.
Can anyone confirm if there is a way to see this charge completion in iOS 7 since it appears that there is no longer a symbol for it? Is there any indication that Apple may have changed the charging display so that now it only displays 100% when it would have previously displayed that plug symbol?

Why is the display grayed out? andhow do I increase the contrast?

I just "updated" from Firefox 3.6.27 to 17. The new look is impossible for me to work with. Everything is faded out, grayed out, no color contrasts...... I tried to find a persona/theme to change this, but the page displaying the persona/themes is so faded out I can't tell what I'm searching for. Isn't there some way to turn off this faded out hazy style?

The setup is the default that comes with Firefox 17. If I could find any settings to increase the contrast I would have done so already. This blue/gray mess is really hard for older computer users. Every thing was just fine thank you, in Firefox 3.6.27 Well, up until they started messing around with forced plugin update checker. Then it started crashing every few minutes, until i gave in and installed this worthless piece of trash Firefox 17. I don't want to live in a blue/gray haze. I want color differentiation and lots of contrast. And I want all the tool bars and address bar above the page tabs. Meanwhile if I go to get an add-on that will change the color scheme, it gives me thousands, but they are faded out. Apparently Mozilla no longer offers add-on that are compatible with the current browser.

I have two fields and I would like the 2nd field to display the word "Error" if the number is smalle

I have two fields and I would like the 2nd field to display the word "Error" if the number is smaller than the number in field 1.
can any one help?

The code for the field? Sure, it's simple.
You can use something like this as its custom calculation code:
var v1 = this.getField("Field 1").valueAsString;
var v2 = this.getField("Field 2").valueAsString;
if (v1 && v2 && Number(v2)<Number(v1)) event.value = "Error";
else event.value = "";
Edit: Fixed code

How can I alter the contrast in the display of my email inbox?

I use gmail, and the contrast on the inbox page is very weak - can't see black dividing lines, for example, and when a line is highlighted it barely shows up. How can I adjust the contrast of the display?

You can use the NoSquint extension to set font sizes (text/page zoom) and text colors on web pages.

My display is fuzzy, like the contrast is to high
