OS X 10.7.2.2 issues with Thunderbolt Display

Help! With Thunderbolt display, Mac-mini and OS X 10.7.2.2 I get a blank screen when mini reawakens from sleep. Moving the cursor around like a paint brush reveals a portion of the underlying log-in screen. Once I uncover my user icon and log-in, my desktop will appear and function normally!!!
IS this caused by (1) the Thunderbolt display, (2) the latest Lion update or a combination of both ? I experienced no problems with older display and Lion 10.7 !!
Any solutions/recommendations?

Hello Drew,
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.

  • Major Issues with Thunderbolt Display in Yosemite

    I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2013). I'm having issues with thunderbolt display connectivity despite recent Thunderbolt Firmware update. The sleep wake function is not working and display with shut off sporadically.
    MacBookPro10,2   Processor Name: Intel Core i7   Processor Speed: 3 GHz   Number of Processors: 1   Total Number of Cores: 2   L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB   L3 Cache: 4 MB   Memory: 8 GB

    Same problem here. I was so excited to see a firmware update this morning for my mac pro, and sure enough as i sat here, the display went black again.

  • New Mac Pro display issues with Thunderbolt display

    When connected to a 27inch Thunderbolt display after a while I get vertical blue lines on the display. If I plug my Macbook Air into the screen, after a while the blue lines clear. How do I find out if it's the Mac Pro or the Display?

    Thanks Turbostar, that's exactly right, it takes about 30 minutes having the Air plugged in and the stripes disappear.

  • WebI issue with hierarchy display and aggregation

    Trying to wrangle what looks like a defect in WebI's handling of hierarchy display and aggregation. We just completed an update cycle and are running BOBJ 4.1 SP4.
    The hierarchy is a standard FM Commitment Item hierarchy in which both the nodes and leaves are Commitment Items (i.e. it uses InfoObject nodes, not text nodes). An example of one of these nodes looks like this in BW:
    Cmmt_Item A - Node
        Cmmt_Item B - Leaf
        Cmmt_Item C - Leaf
    Let's pretend Commitment Item A has $50 posted to it, B has $20 and C has $30. Analysis for OLAP handles this by adding a virtual leaf line to distinguish postings that are on the parent node like so:
    Cmmt_Item A - Node       $100
        Cmmt_Item A - Leaf    $50
        Cmmt_Item B - Leaf    $20
        Cmmt_Item C - Leaf    $30
    So you see both the total for the node ($100) and a line for each Commitment Items with KFs posted to them. Our users like this. They can easily see the aggregation and the breakdown.
    WebI, on the other hand, will display it like this:
    Cmmt_Item A - Node       $150
        Cmmt_Item B - Leaf    $20
        Cmmt_Item C - Leaf    $30
    It doesn't create a separate line for the value of the parent node, but it does add it's value into the aggregate. Twice. Modifying the table with the 'avoid duplicate row aggregation' checkbox yields output like this:
    Cmmt_Item A - Node       $100
    Cmmt_Item A - Node        $50
        Cmmt_Item B - Leaf    $20
        Cmmt_Item C - Leaf    $30
    We're about halfway there. While the top row now shows the correct aggregation and it creates a new line to show the distinct amount on the parent node, that new line appears on the same level as the parent. It's no longer clear that there's an aggregate and a breakdown. And attempting to expand or contract a node will now crash the report with one of those 'Error 16' messages.
    Has anyone encountered this issue with hierarchies in WebI? This report was built from scratch in 4.1, so I'm not sure if this affects older versions or not. Or if it would affect any hierarchy that uses InfoObject nodes instead of text nodes.

    Without a fix, the simplest workaround I can think of would be to restructure the hierarchy. It can't use postable nodes, so Cmmt_Item A  - Node from my example would need to be converted into a text node and the postable characteristic added as a child on the same level as the B and C leaves.
    This looks like it would affect anyone using hierarchies with postable nodes in a WebI report.
    Another oddity in WebI's behavior here - even though the postable nodes show incorrect sums the sum at the root node is correct. So extending my examples from the original post:
    Root Node                    $100
        Cmmt_Item A - Node       $150
            Cmmt_Item B - Leaf    $20
            Cmmt_Item C - Leaf    $30

  • Issue with Icons display in PUSH BUTTONS in forms 11g

    Hello,
    This is regarding an issue with the icons background for the push buttons in the forms 11g. When we enable the icons for the buttons (.gif) they are visible on the
    top left corner of the buttons and not in the centre. In one of the forums it was written like this is a common problem in Forms 11g. Is there any way by which we can
    centralize this icons on the Forms buttons. Also I have heard that image editing tools can be used to centralize the icons. I tried with one of the tools but it seems
    like it is not working.
    Can somebody suggest a workaround for this?
    Thanks in Advance
    Ram

    I will assume you are attempting to use the images included in the Forms applet jar. These images are purposely structured so that the subject is off-centered. You should not see that same behavior if you use your own images or edit the ones built-in to Forms. However, keep in mind that the images packaged in the Forms applet jar are intended to be used in a menu toolbar and not custom buttons.
    For more information, refer to MyOracleSupport note 1391073.1 where I explain this in detail.

  • Long standing issue with Caller Display

    Hello, I hope someone may be able to help.
    We have had no caller display service since just before Christmas, some six or so weeks ago now.
    I must have called 151 nearly 10 times, received several calls back, one visit from Openreach, made three BT complaints, had my reported fault closed several times as the "end user says it is working" (I presume that is me? I certainly havent told anyone at BT it is working!), and must have been on the phone trying to solve this issue for more than 5 or 6 hours in total.  What a waste of my time.
    Essentially, my elderly and disabled parents receive lots of marketing, sales, unwanted type phonecalls etc, and with caller display previously it has helped them decide if they want to pick up the phone or not.  They want to answer calls to friends and family etc, but not to these "nuisance" calls.
    Everything worked fine til just before Christmas, when we found out Caller Display was now going to be a chargeable service.  I dont mind paying for something if it works, and we "opted in".
    However, we still have difficulties with caller display.
    17070 works fine.
    *#234# tells me callers ID will be displayed.
    Several openreach engineers checked exchange and uploaded new software etc.
    The problem still exists some 6 or more weeks on!
    This cannot continue.  I am just going round in circles all the time, speaking with various people on the phone at BT. 
    What can I do next?  Citizens Advice?, Ombudsmen?, letter to BT Chairman? 
    We are not happy bunnies here, but if anyone could help......I would be exceptionally grateful!!
    Thank you.

    Not good.  Can I get a refund please on the caller ID service as I believe I have been paying £1.75/month since January 4th?
    I still want to problem sorted by the way......
    Any update RobbieMac?
    Thanks.
    Did you agree a new contract  because in your earlier post you say

    if you did then you will not have been paying for caller ID

  • Website Issues with Retina Displays

    An apple rep stated, that “Yes, some websites are not very clear when viewed with a retina display.” He wouldn’t elaborate further. So, is this a problem? If it is, how major of one is it?
    Also, is there a real difference between the retina display and a high-res non-glare display?  I really like non-glare displays. This apple rep also admitted that although there is less glare in the new retina displays than the previous high-res screens, they are still not as ‘non-glare’ as the older MBP ‘non-glare’ screens.  What’s your opinion about this?  No one really likes any glare if they can get away with it. But is the retina display really a big deal?

    I have not had any issues with web sites. Be aware that if a web site is coded to be 1024 pixels wide and you have your screen resolution set at 2880 wide then the page will be very small and the text unreadable. So you will have to decide what is the best resolution for you. I have mine set at 1920x1200 pixels and all web sites seem to work well.
    There is a noticeable difference between the retina and the glossy screens. About 70% less glare according to Apple. Seems right from my experience.
    You should go to an Apple store and check out the display for yourself.

  • Retina macbook pro with thunderbolt display causes speaker issues

    I have a thunderbolt display and used the speakers fine on old macbook pro. I now plug in my new retina macbook pro 15" with mountain lion and the sound plays fine for a while then starts to crackle real bad and then stops all together. If I switch the the laptop speakers then switch back after 30 or so minutes the thunderbolt speakers will work again for a short amount of time then again crackle and stop.
    This may be mountain lion related but I have tried another non-retina version macbook pro with mountain lion and did not notice the issue but it was only for an hour or so. So this leads me to belive its the computer.
    Any suggestions? its really really anoying and wasting my time trying to fix it.

    I have the exact same issue. I hauled the TB Display into the Apple Store 3 times and finally they replaced it. Come to find out this new one has the same issue still. So It has to be rMBP related at this point. Unfortunately I don't think I have it under warranty still and the issue is hard to demonstrate. I recorded videos of it but every time I go into the store and plug it is the same as switching the speakers from internal to external and it takes 30-60 mins before it degrates to scratching sounds.
    Please let me know if you ever foudn a solution. Im going to try to keep taking it in until I can get this resolved.

  • MacBook Pro Retina with Thunderbolt Display Issues

    I have issues when connecting my MacBook Pro to the Thunderbolt Display when I don't do a fresh boot of the MacBook Pro.  It doesn't happen all the time, but when it does, the Thunderbolt Display usually turns on succesfully, but none of my USB devices (mouse, keyboard) respond and when I try to disconnect the Thunderbolt, the MacBook doesn't realize it's been disconnected and thus I'm just left with the background screen and have to shut it down by holding the power button for a few seconds.
    With a fresh boot, everything works fine.  Are you supposed to have to shut down and restart everytime you hook up this monitor?  Has anyone had these issues?

  • Sync issues with Thunderbolt drives

    I'm checking to see if there are any sync issues with Mac Book Pros pre-Retina screen.
    I have a (13-inch, Mid 2012)  2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 Mac Book Pro and I'm having some sync/latency issues with a number of audio interfaces, including a Symphony I/O and a MBox Mini 2.
    I'm editing with Final Cut Pro 7.  Mavericks OS 10.9.5.  It's also happening with QT 10.3.
    I'm using a Thunderbridge with the Symphony I/O and the USB port for the MBox Mini 2, but it has the same issue.  I'm trying to get the registration number for my Pro App version of QT 7 because QT 10 is having some issues with a few arcane video formats.  Is that possible?  I can't retrieve the email because the computer that might have it is long dead, and buried in storage.
    configuration:
    Mac Book Pro to
    G RAID Studio (via Thunderbolt) to
    (Apogee Symphony I/O Thunderbridge)
    1080P monitor (via Belkin Mini Display port to HDMI cable)
    or MBox mini via USB
    Both of these setups have sync issues.  I have rigged a 1/8" stereo plug out of the headphone output and except for the occasional deafening buzz when you touch the adapter, it works okay, with no seeming sync issues.
    Is this a thing?  I understand that there is an issue with Symphony I/Os and certain Haswell Mac USB 3.0 ports.

    Hi,
    Yes, I apologize. The video editor wasn't giving me any details. I did see the 44.1/48khz issue online. So will this happen only if both are mixed in the same timeline?
    Thanks

  • Solution for sleep issues with external display?

    I had an Early 2011 Macbook Pro that worked quite well with an external display.  I now have a Mid 2012 Macbook Pro (bought 5 days ago, and running 10.10.3) that will not consistently work with the same external monitor.
    I had it working yesterday for a few hours only if I left the MBP with the top open (both the MBP screen and external monitor stayed lit).  But, today it is back to freezing each time the monitor is connected to it.
    I have tried:
    1.  Connecting the external monitor to the MBP with the top open.  Results in the MBP screen now going dark and no signal being passed to the external monitor.  If the external monitor is disconnected, the MBP screens stays dark and the computer is unresponsive requiring a hard restart.
    2.  Connecting the external monitor to the MBP with the top closed.  Results in no signal being sent to the external monitor.  Disconnecting the external monitor and reopening the MBP yields, again, and unresponsive computer which requires a hard restart.
    I have tried three different external monitors, all giving the same result.  The MBP is connect to external power, and I am running the latest OS (10.10.3).
    Any suggestions before I return this to the Apple store in a rage?  :-)

    Hello there, Gaflin.
    I'm sorry to hear you're having so much trouble getting your external display to work the way you are expecting with your new MacBook Pro. The following Knowledge Base article provides a great checklist of steps for troubleshooting the issue you seem to be describing:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays - Apple Support
    No video or no signal, image distortion, "snow," or flickering
    Check connections
    When using an external display be sure to check the following:
    If you're using an Apple notebook, confirm the AC power cable or adapter is securely connected to the computer and the cable providing power to the display is also secure. It is always good to have your notebook connected to AC power when an external display is in use.
    Confirm display adapters are fully seated in their respective connections and that they are supported models and for the computer and display. Refer to these articles to assist you with adapter compatibility and further configuration information:
    Monitor and Display Adapter Table
    About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
    Apple Mini DisplayPort adapters: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Thunderbolt ports and displays: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
    Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
    If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
    Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
    If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Using Closed lid, Extended Desktop, or Mirroring display modes
    When using multiple displays, information can be presented in a number of ways. For more information and what modes are supported by your Apple product refer to:
    Apple Portables: How to use your computer in closed lid (display closed) mode with an external display

  • Issue with the display on MBP 15" with anti-glare screen

    Hi Everyone,
    my MBP 15" is only 7 months old, so I need to dig the warranty info out.
    However, I am curious to know whether anyone else has experienced a similar issue with their screen.  Mine has developed a series of small shadows at the bottom of the screen, it almost looks like a theatre stage!!
    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Many people have. It's a fault in the display backlight. Have it repaired while your machine is still under warranty.

  • Issues with thunderbolt not being detected on initial start up

    I understand that when running windows boot camp for your thunderbolt display you have to either reboot or start up for it to be detected. However, I shut my machine down every night and when I come back in the next day and start up, the thunderbolt is never detected. I reinstalled the windows support software and this seemed to fix it but only for a short period. Any suggestions?

    It should not be necessary for plug/play devices.

    Do you boot with the TB monitor connected?

    Do you have Windows Automatic Updates set up, which may be updating your drivers, without you knowing what is going on? Check Windows Update history.

  • Won't start with thunderbolt display attached

    Almost new 3.5 Ghz Intel Core i7 iMac 2014 SSD only, 32GB disk running 10.9.4.  Absolutely will not start up from shutdown state with an additional 27" Thunderbolt display attached.  Unplug the display, boots fine.  Then plug in the display, all works peachy.  Sleep is also broken and hangs on restart, except if you only sleep the displays, not the CPU then it always wakes up fine.  This is pathetic, very Windows-like. 
    Suggestions?

    10.9.3 and 10.9.4 have known issues with displays attached via Thunderbolt (for example see here Second display problem with 10.9.4 and 10.9.4 - Thunderbolt display for 6630M (Mini mid-2011) still broken ).

  • Late 2008 Mac Book Pro with Thunderbolt display: Compatibility

    I have a Mac Book Pro Late 2008 (15inch) and want to buy a 27inch thunderbolt display, because in the future I will buy a mac book air (thunderbolt)...
    but for now:
    1: Can I use my late 2008 MacPro with thunderbolt?
    1a:If yes, which functions work, which not...
    1b:If yes, how to connect? I do not have any cables so far
    1c:If yes, will my resolution increase on the 27inch or will I have the resolution of the mac book? What about the future Mac Book Air? Which resolution will be?
    2: If I cannot use it, is there any exchange program from Apple for old Macs against new ones? (Like for cars they have)

    I have a Late 2011 MacBookPro that I bought with the stock 5400 RPM HD.  Before I did anything with it, I replaced it with a Momentus XT drive.  In my Late 2007 MBP, I have used the original 160GB 5400 RPM drive for a few months before replacing it with a 7200 RPM (non XT) drive, and the difference was noticable, but not huge.  For me, the move from 7200 RPM to 7200RPM-Hybrid was noticable, but not huge.  I would say that you won't be disappointed by goign to a hybrid drive (as long as you get the 750GB version as some of the 500GB ones had firmware issues that caused nightmares for some Mac users.
    Now that I look more closely, you will probably see a fairly huge jump, as your existing drive is only negotatiating a SATA-I link, where the Momentus XT is a SATA-III drive, so it will be able to negotiate a SATA-II link to get the best performance of your controller.
