Missed calls - a missed call is shown on the screen when the phone is locked. I slide the icon an the phone calls the back to the missed number. The phone still show a missed no. It should clear the icon since I obviously noted the missed call. Any fixes?

Ok, a wish for the next iOS release, just a small anoying thing.
Scenario:
I have a missed call, the screen is locked. The name of the caller shows up on the screen, I slide the phone icon and phone back.
When I've ended the call there is still a notification of a missed call, i.e. the same missed call that I just called back. To clear the missed call red circle icon on the phone icon (in the unlocked state and the notification on the locked screen) I must open the missed call list. Then it clears.
My wish is that the phone understands that it should clear that missed call after I returned the call since I have obviously noted it.
-> Is this something apple will update or is there a setting that I could change?

You have to return the call via the recent list or tap the red missed call entry in recent list otherwise even a hundred calls won't turn the balloon off.

My 15 inch Macbook Retina has Vertical grey area in my screen which i noted about 3 days ago.

I noted a vertical grey area in my screen which suddenly appeared while editing a word document. I was trying to catch it by screenshot but it does not appear in the picture. I only notice it in white backgounds. Help pls. It is kinda annoying. My macbook pro retina is a month old. Thanks in advance.

reset the ipad by holding the home button and sleep/wake button together until the ipad turns off. Ignore the slide to power off message if it comes up. Then hold the sleep/wake button for a few seconds to turn it back on. You should get the apple logo then.

I noted a white circle in a grey frame. When i touch it, i get a grey screen with a star labled favorites, a white circle labled Gestures, a white circle with a square labled Home, and a square labled Device--- What is this new app and how do I use it??

Full-screen (spacebar) preview quality testing

[For background story, please read http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1056763 but be warned, it's very l-o-n-g!]
In brief: some people have noted that Bridge full-screen (spacebar) previews (FSPs) don't accurately reflect the sharpness of a photograph. Sometimes this can be explained by individual configuration problems, but it's clear that this is a common issue amongst people using Bridge to assess/score photograph sharpness, without having to build/examine 100% previews for every image.
[It's worth noting that one common reason why FSPs aren't very sharp is because the Bridge advanced preference "Generate Monitor-Size Previews" hasn't been ticked, as this produces a higher resolution image cache. Another cause of very fuzzy previews is random and unexplained, but can usually be solved by restarting Bridge and/or clearing the cache for the selection.]
This discussion concerns the lack of sharpness seen only in FSPs. It can be described as "a subtle but significant loss of detail and sharpness, similar to a slightly out of focus photograph"; imagine a photo with a little bit of blur filter, or a Photoshop PSD at a non-standard zoom setting. This "softening" of the image is caused by Bridge asking the graphics processor to resize the image cache to fit the display. If you select the Bridge advanced preference "Use Software Rendering", you can improve a poor FSP slightly, at the expense of speed, by bypassing the graphics processor.
The test
Visit this web page and download the last image ("2362x3543 pixel, 4.5 Mb") to your computer.
Browse to this image in Bridge, and view it full-screen by pressing Spacebar. Take a screen capture, and save it as a TIFF or PSD.
Adjust your slideshow settings (Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-L), picking "Scaled to Fill", then click on "Play". Save the screen capture, as above.
You now have two screen captures: one FSP, and one cache JPEG reference shot. Examine them side by side at 100%, or layer them in Photoshop and use the hide layer button to flick between images. Pay particular attention to the two left-hand photos, the sharpness check text, and the converging lines.
Make a note of your computer's operating system, graphics processor and driver version, as well as your largest display's pixel dimensions.
Post this information below, together with high quality (10) JPEGs of both screen captures, labelled FSP and REF, and any observations, so we can all see.

OK, it usually takes me a while to let the penny drop, especially when it comes to maths...
I also am busy with the transition of my new Mac pro but with al this here are my results. I include several screenshots but due to upload limit of 2 MB per image in here I downsized the original screenshots a lot, but hopefully it will be clear.
For full screen screenshots I have the asked FSP and REF but also the 100% preview in Bridge with space bar and click. Don't know what your file size is but using EOS 1Dx with 18 MP CR2 files (converted to DNG) it does take me about 1,5 - 2 seconds for both loupe and FSP to build a 100 % preview, and I seem to recall this was not very different behavior on my previous (6 year old) Mac Pro.
You are right (of course... :-) ) regarding the difference between FSP and REF, when studying closely there is a significant detail difference between the FSP and the REF. However, only the 100 % preview matches the original jpeg. The FSP file is on closer look not so good with details but the REF file is only slightly better, both are not correct and therefor the 100 % is still needed.
Here is the FSP screenshot:
and here the REF screenshot:
also the 100 % preview in full screen screenshot:
and finally a composed file with details from original, 100 % REF and FSP:
As said before, at first sight I can't spot significant difference between all options and the full screen (as the preview panel HQ preview) let's me spot the vast majority of unsharpness issues, hence my multiple rounds of sorting and incases of doubt the 100 % option.
So while your theory is correct I'm afraid I (still) doubt the usefulness of this all. If neither the FSP and the REF (although the latter does show a bit better result) can match the results of the original but the 100 % does it well I don't see an easy solution for improvement.
I agree with the quality from the screenshots Curt provided, but Curt also uses the embedded thumbnail instead of HQ preview option. Depending on his needs and hard ware availability it would be nice to see new results with the HQ and monitor sized previews options enabled.

I keep getting blue screen and error message to remove this file from system. spooldr.sys

HP Officejet 4500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - G510n    w/operating system     Windows XP Professional
I installed the printer in February and the disk did not finalize the setup process. I went online and
down loaded the drivers and software that was offered from the HP website.
The printer works, but as the months have gone along, I keep getting updates for the printer and
the system needs to reboot and it does automatically.
Now I am getting a blue screen with a critical dump error message. HP error reporting keeps sending
the same message back to restore to earlier date before the updates. That worked for awhile. Now
HP Error system says that malware has corrupted and needs to remove system file     spooldr.sys
Is this in your driver software. Spooldr is the system that caches pages of data for printing in chronological
order....
Can I uninstall my software and drivers and change to the plain & simple, print and scan to prevent the
spool driver from loading to my system?

Thank you for your input. But, It is amazing that you can tell me that I was infected with rootkit.
Without information as to how to fix, your information is after the fact and useless.
I used the Safety Scanner provided to me by HP.  A full scan didn't detect any Malware in any files on my system. But the last screen dump provided the information that   spooldr.sys was corrupted and needed
to be removed.
Coming into HP Form, I did read on the HP website that my system Windows XP Professional was not listed
and noted that the software may have not been just what I needed. This was the reason for the question
about uninstalling and reinstalling less of the program. I really don't need my printer to print backward and
that is all I see that it is doing that other printers don't.
Besides, Kudos goes to the person from HP who sent the email, suggesting I used the HP Update software and drives recommended for my computer system. Computer, printer is working, back to normal and hasn't taken a dump since, I uploaded software and drives for Windows XP Professional.

Keyboard/trackpad marks on screen

Hello !
I'm still fiddling with my relatiely new MBA (2012 model). I have been experimenting with keyboard covers and just recently decided to forgo them since they influence the typing experience. I decided I will just live with the shininess on my keyboard keys that may eventually occur
I did some research and I'm wondering what folks think about screen protectors. It seems that the MBAs have some troubles in terms of the keyboard & the alumninum between the trackpad and space bar causing scratches on the screen. I understand that it doens't usually happen but can occur if you pack your MBA in a full backpack, which is unforutnately what I do as a student. Is this an issue that has been solved in the 2012 model? If not, do screen protectors help with this or will the screen still scratch?
Any help would be appreciated
Much thanks!

The link you posted to is about "AIRFLOW and heat" ... I refer to heat conduction and radiation from the heat sync and otherwise vertically thru the unit as heat rises. Same heat conduction as thru the alloy case.
You cant argue wrapping the entire base of the air in a silicone seal wont impede/ prevent heat conduction, ....the same applies for the top of the keyboard.
Thats like saying "my dog vents heat thru panting (fan) and sweating (alloy case conduction), therefore putting a hat on his head wont affect anything". As said before, it isnt much, and on the new cool Air, its really a non-issue now.
Keyboard protectors in general arent dangerous no, of course not.
Are some of them bad on an Air? Yes indeed they absolutely are.
Some of the cheap and THICKER than normal ones (and that is a lot of them)
Heat isnt the real concern here, ....the fact that nearly ALL of them transfer skin oils to the screen leaving nasty marks is very annoying. (As the poster and many others have noted)
The fact that the cheap ones (and I assure you people BUY the cheap ones in mass) press against the screen
Ive seen the cheap thick ones like these people buy (because theyre pretty)...they will press on the screen, ....and in a tight backpack, its cruising for trouble.

Xperia Live with Walkman on Android 4.0.4 (with screenies)

My Thoughts on Android 4.0.4 on Xperia Live with Walkman
-Sleeker Font Style.
-Camera Shortcut right from the Lock Screen.
-Able to access the drop down notification bar even when locked.
-Music Player access right from the lock screen
-New Owner Info Option display
-Face Unlock works great on Live with walkman.
-Awesome new themes. Xperia NXT Style! Although they are only wallpapers, not the live ones seen on 2012 devices. My favorite is Tourquoise (Did I spell that right?)
-The Performance Assistant will help you disable some of the apps that you dont need.
-There it is! Official Android 4.0.4. Ice Cream Sandwich. OH YEAHHHH!!!
-If you repeatedly tap on the Android Version Menu. This little Primitive Droid will surprise you. HEHE!!
-Oh, and there's also a new logo when you start up your phone : SONY ONLY not Sony Ericsson, and in its ever-so-recognizable font style. =P
-The Sony Ericsson Liquid Logo has also been changed to Walkman, with a bubbly and quirky animation.
-Ill try to post screenies if I can.
-Greatly Improved Android Browser. Seriously, It's WAAAAYYY smoother than the one in GB.
-The Browser runs smoother than GB.
-Websites with heavy flash content load smoothly. =D
-Saved Pages Option to view pages offline.
- Only Android provides true multitasking capabilities.
- Hold the Home Button and you will be taken to this new recent/running apps tab. Swipe to the right and that app is closed. =D!!!
-Widget Preview.
- A NEW Gallery aside from the Xperia Gallery. The new gallery provides edit options. Like Picsart or Instagram or Adobe Photoshop Express. So, if you want to save some precious memory, stick with the gallery editing options =D
-HD playback still smooth as ever. I don't know what the fuss is all about. =P
-Images look fine as they did in gingebread. It really depends on shooting situations.
-Captured 720p HD Videos doesn't lag for me. Play back is smooth. Same as in gingerbread.
-Maybe, People are just not used to the new interface, but with a little bit of tinkering, you should get used to it in no time. =P
-The New Camera Interface. It now includes a dedicated on screen camera button.
-Captured Photos Quality are the same as in Gingerbread.
-Captured 720p HD Videos run as smooth as in Gingerbread.
- The New YouTube App interface.
- The Lockscreen Music Player
- There was a review about not seeing the clock due to the music player. Duhhh, you can see it at the upper right corner. =P
- I love how the album art and the album name also appears. If you are like me who converts songs from youtube to mp3. A little app called Tune Wiki can help you edit its tags so you can enable infinity view. =D
-The New Dial Pad, which provides Smart Dialing.
-About the lagginess issue. It takes about 2-3 seconds to start. It depends on how many entries you have in your call log.
-There's a workaround on it though, access it through Contacts.
- RAM usage feels the same for me. Good Job on this one Sony. =D
- I was really worried about RAM ever since I read Sony's article about GB and ICS. They did well on optimizing this one.
- My screenshot is not the best there is since I was syncing Facebook inside Xperia. But, normally it has about 180mb used and 160mb free.
- New APPS installed. Some apps like Wisepilot for Xperia can now be moved to SD card, thereby freeing more phone memory.
- My New Homescreen. It retains the very convenient four corner bubbles.
- 5 Widget Panes
- A New Google Search Widget
- Walkman Player. I was expecting the music player from the NXT series. Hehe, but I guess this will have to do. =D
- I've never seen the refresh music library option even in the GB walkman player. Through experience, everytime I add a music file it gets added in real time. No refresh required...
- Oh, and also... I think the speaker is a tad bit louder than before. Like 20% louder. I noted no distortions
- The orange lights work as usual.
- Still no customizable equalizer. This is a walkman phone. It has to have superb music customization capabilities. =P
- Battery usage for me remains the same like in GB.
-Monster Use/Heavy Gaming : 4 hours (HD games cracked for HVGA screens i.e. Asphalt 6 Adrenaline, Need for Speed, Shadowgun, Dead Space) Although I doubt you could play that long due to the screen size and the cramps you may get from playing. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome anyone? Haha.
-Internet Browsing : 6-8 hours
-Video Playback using Stock Player and YouTube App : 6-8 hours
-Video Playback using MX player : 4-6 hours (I use it for my .avi files)
- I use Easy Battery Saver to Optimize battery performance.
In Super Mode it can last up to 24-36 hours with only texts and calls which I think is pretty impressive. I can go on 16 hour hospital shifts without worying about charging my phone.
In Normal Mode it can last 8-10 hours.
-It really depends on how you use your phone. I strongly believe it greatly varies with every user.
- Don't believe posts that say it doesn't run as smooth as GB. IT RUNS AS SMOOTH AS GINGERBREAD. EVEN BETTER. =P
- Sleeker new user interface.
- All of my apps and games still run smoothly on ICS. I'll keep searching for bugs.
- The ROBOTO font is awesome.
- I find the interface more intuitive and streamlined than GB.
- Lots of new features implemented. i.e. Smart Dialing, Face Unlock, Performance Assistant
- Icons have been remodeled.
- I also love how fluid it is now when it switches screen orientation. =D!!
- No bugs for me whatsoever.
- I miss the quirkiness of the GB user interface. Like the transparency of the messaging app. But I guess, I have to move on, change is for the better.
- A SOLID AND STABLE UPGRADE. NOW MY XPERIA LIVE IS COMPLETE.
Problems:
-Yes, the LED SMS notification doesn't work. But all other LEDs work. i.e. Yahoo Messenger, Incoming Calls, Twitter. I guess they may have overlooked this one. It's the only problem that I see. I find it livable still. Greater good for the greater number of people =P
-THANKS TO SONY!!! A huge step on the right direction.
-KIMOZAVE - NOOBIE SMARTPHONE USER

hi kimozave, ur review seems to be full of praises for ICS, but I have gone through many threads on disadvantages of ICS, so very much confused if I should go with ICS update or not....
can you plz tell how was is experience on:
1. Dial pad - I have read its laggy.
2. The phone is having a hard time authenticating wifi connection when using WPA encryption.
3. Thumbnails in the gallery does not match the original picture.
4. Phone dies at 10% battery remaining.
5. SIM card keeps ejecting
6. Camera is more laggy and image quality is poorer
Thanks,

White pixel band on my 15" screen

Hello guys!
I hope you can help me because I do not know where to turn now. Let me explain my problem.
I purchased in the month of November 2010 my 15 "MacBook Pro (mid 2010, 2.4 GHz, 4GB of RAM). During the first year of use no problem, the mac worked great and I used it immediately as your primary computer ( traveling and living away from home was an obvious choice.) If at the beginning of the second year were presented serious problems, namely: continuous computer crash, that I initially tried to solve disassembling and exchanging of cards instead of the Ram ), irreversible damage to hard disk drives (internal and external) resulting in loss of critical data, partly recovered by programs such as Drive Genius. And a band of white pixels appeared on the screen (approximately 6.5 cm from the left side of the screen wide and about 4 cm), which is attenuated slightly shake up the screen. All these problems (in time of exams and work) have led me first to ask for help Aesse computer, Apple Premium Reseller of Catania, with whom we have tested the Mac for more than a month, and it was found necessary to replace the Main Board. same fate at the Apple Store in Catania.
After litigation related to Apple's warranty (the problem occurred in the second year and was linked to a lack of conformity), the Mac has been sent by the retailer Euronics (chain reseller Italian electronics) where I bought it, to its headquarters in Turin , where it replaced the Main Board. It's all right for a year.
To be noted that in terms of performance, the Mac is back to the first, but about two weeks the band reappeared pixels, giving me a few problems in the visualization and realization of the work (I'm a graphic designer). The Hardware Test does not detect any problems and the band alternates between moments of everlasting presence in moments of terrifying absence (for example, two days ago I had to present to a client a job with the **** white band, the first five minutes when he was absent ).
I did research on research on the internet but it seems this problem is far from common (the only loser I am, of course). I assume by contradiction that it is a burnt connector on the screen, because when the screen is slightly bent at the sides of the band fades or disappears (sometimes to reappear, sometimes to disappear), but would not explain why after repair (not touching the screen, but only the Main Board), the problem was not resubmitted immediately, but only after a year ... So, not being an expert, I ask you if you can understand what the problem is, because I have run out of options.
Thank you all for your attention

How to mirror iMac screen wirelessly through a mac mini connected to an hdmi port of HD TV?

I have a new Mac Mini connected to a Sony HD TV. On the same network but in a different room I have my iMac. I can control the iMac with wireless mouse and keyboard from the same room where the TV and Mac Mini reside. I would like to work on my iMac but use the HD TV as my monitor so I can show slideshows and iMovie projects without transferring files to the MacMini first. Is it possible, and if so, how do I go about setting it up?

Your iMac likely supports a higher resolution than the TV does. The maximum standard TVs today use is 1920x1080, and if your iMac is an Intel Core i3 or i5, its own display is at least that high of a resolution. Which model of iMac do you have?
If your iMac is running at least Leopard (10.5), then both machines have Screen Sharing built in. It can be accessed from the Finder, but as often as you would like to use it you should go to Macintosh HD > System > Library > CoreServices and drag it (the icon) to your Dock. That will create the shortcut to get to it easily. As I noted before, the built in Screen Sharing VNC software doesn't do full screen, but third party VNC software can. Both machines do not need to be using the thrid party VNC software, just the one viewing - in this case your Mac mini. Chicken of the VNC is a popular free one, fairly easy to use:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/
For more info about how to set up Screen Sharing and how to use the included application:
http://mac.appstorm.net/how-to/os-x/using-screen-sharing-in-os-x-leopard/
Note that you will have to use the settings in System Preferences, regardless of what VNC software you use. Both systems will need to have Screen Sharing settings enabled.

MacBook Pro 8,2 - Enabling Intel GPU results in blank screen

I am trying to install Arch on my MacBook Pro 8,2. I've followed the wiki page, and I should note that I have successfully installed Arch on here before (about 4 months ago) and it worked then. However, this time I have made several attempts and failed every time.
I installed Arch and put Grub-efi on the EFI system partition. rEFInd picked it up, it runs fine, but of course X video doesn't work right out of the box because it runs off the AMD discrete graphics initially-- stuck at console only as long as I'm on the discrete. Problems with the discrete graphics don't matter though, since for battery life, I plan to power off the AMD discrete graphics and just run the Intel graphics-- no vgaswitcheroo or anything, nothing fancy. This worked on my previous install with no problems, using the outb commands in Grub as noted on the wiki. But now, as soon as those commands are processed, the screen goes completely blank and just stays that way. The system is still running in the background and once it boots it can be blindly rebooted.
I have also tried not powering down the graphics immediately, instead using this little program, disable-ati.c, from here (initially meant for fixing resume problems) to allow me to play around and control when exactly I turn the power on. Anyway... same effect of course since it's just changing when the outb commands are run. But it allows me to make sure everything else is booted first. With it, I tried a test: I ran disable-ati and then tried running startx. Of course I can't see anything, but I rebooted the system and checked Xorg.0.log and found "No devices detected" and "No screens found". Which is what the outb commands are supposed to solve if the wiki page is to be believed. There are no errors in the log until then apart from not being able to load failsafe modules like fbdev and vesa (simply because they aren't installed).
To note, apart from defaults, I'm loading the modules ahci, libahci, and i915 through mkinitcpio.conf and have rebuilt the images.
My kernel arguments are: radeon.modeset=0 i915.modeset=1 i915.lvds_channel_mode=2 i915.lvds_use_ssc=0
I have tried many combinations of these, including reordering them or omitting one or more. No difference no matter what.
So... what's going on here? This is pretty much documented all over the web to work absolutely fine for MacBook Pro 8,2 users. Except me, apparently. Not sure what could be going wrong, considering everything on here is a fresh install. I reformatted the whole thing yesterday and started completely from scratch following the instructions very exactly.
Fellow MBP8,2 users, your help would be appreciated!

Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter 1.03 - screen goes black and won't come back

I have a new Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter to allow my original Apple 30" Cinema Display to connect to the new Mac Pro. Shipped straight from Apple, it is firmware version 1.03. I've never had flickering issues as so commonly described, but the display will often go black (possibly after a screen power save) and not come back. when this happens I am still able to connect to and use the Mac via remote connection. But the only way to get the screen back is either to unplug the adapter and plug it back in to the Mac, or to shut down and power up the Mac. Is anyone else seeing this issue?
