Problems with screen freeze with Adobe touch since 8.1 upgrade.

When reading a document my screen will freeze and go blurry at times, especially if my PC goes to sleep.
It seems to have started after I upgraded to 8.1, and yes my Adobe touch is up to date.

Although our team members have seen similar issues, we have not determined the root cause of the problem yet. It appears to be caused by graphics card driver failure or incompatibility with the Windows 8.1/RT 8.1 operating system after resuming from temporary suspension of an Windows Store app.
Have you seen this error message on your Windows 8.1 desktop when your device/PC "wakes up" from sleep?
So far, we have not seen the problem with Microsoft Surface RT / Surface Pro tablets and most PCs.
If you are willing to troubleshoot, could you update your graphics card driver to the latest version that supports Windows 8.1 to see if the problem still persists?
Thank you for your help.

Beatport problem -- screen freezes with some tracks...

It started happening since i downloaded Flash 10 --- the
screen freezes with a lot of tracks...when it's freezed, there's
nothin' else i can do with that page ( at least inside beatport ).
When i open another Beatport page, and go to the same track that
freezed before, it happens again... this is very bad, 'cause it
doesn't allow me to buy some excellent tracks... Does anyone know
how to solve this ?

As JustinC pointed out, it would be better you were running a more 'mature' OS (also CoreAudio is part of Quicktime so if you have updated QT and not the OS you could, possibly, be running an incompatible version of CoreAudio, i'm not too sure about that.)
But considering the symptoms you mentioned, and the fact you are running very few audio tracks, I'm assuming you run a lot of MIDI.
The symptoms you describe sound a lot like a MIDI feedback loop.
You don't have any sort of inter-app MIDI routing enabled, do you ?
If you do, you need to isolate the inter-app inputs from the sequencer input, or be very careful not to select tracks which are assigned to an inter-app port (or 'all' ports)
Oh, and update the OS anyway, there is no good reason to stick with 10.3.0

Frequent screen freezes with os 10.8.3

I am experiencing frequent screen freezes with OS 10.8.3 on my 27" iMac, Late 2009. Sometimes while using Safari, sometimes while using Photoshop CS5.1, Sketchup 8, or other software. Rarely does it coincide with a processor intensive operation. I have not had this problem since my old white G5 iMac. Then it was aleading indicator that the CPU or power supply needed replacing (I went through 5 processors and 6 power supplies with that machine.) I took my current iMac in to the Apple Store and had it checked out. Hardware checked out fine, but the freezes are becoming more frequent. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Startup screen freezes with vertical lines and a restart message

So this problem just started a couple of days ago it seems to be getting worse. Occasionally it will start-up but not often and at the moment it won't, I just keep getting this screen on start-up: http://www.flickr.com/photos/42697060@N04/3933706005/ and http://www.flickr.com/photos/42697060@N04/3934486754/
Not sure if this is the same problem people are having with the video card or not. Thanks for the help!

I'm getting the same look, with all kinds of squares and lines on screen, although mine starts while the computer is running with color reversals and lines on the working space. Then I get a freeze and have to do a hard re-start with the power button, and finally, what you're seeing. I did notice that when I unplugged the power adaptor, the problem has gone away, at least for the past 30 minutes or so.
I originally thought it was overheating, since if I shut it down and left it, it would re-start normally after 15 minutes, but crash again in 10 minutes of running. Then I came here, and read about the video card. That could be, but why only when plugged into the power adaptor? The power adaptor has been acting up lately, in that the light is sometimes off, sometimes amber when screen shows 100%, like that.
I'll plug back and in and see what happens, and put it here. 4:53 PM Saturday.
I'll keep fooling around with it, and report back here. I'll also make an appointment for next week with the nearest Apple store - 1.5 hour drive. Grrrr. I'm home with the flu this weekend. I'm tempted to go now and shake everyone's hand.

Multi-Gesture Screen Freezes with IOS 8.1

Random screen freezes and crashes are still occurring on my iPad Air when using the Multi-Gestures feature, after installing IOS 8.1. This problem started with IOS 8.0, continued with IOS 8.02, and is still present in IOS 8.1. Apple, please fix this! Having to reboot multiple times a day is very annoying. Turning the Multi-Gesture feature off obviously stops the problem but is not a real solution. If a feature is present, it needs to work right.

HHe's. A simple visit to Settings, disabling and then immediately re-enabling the feature fixes the issue. But just for a while.
APPLE: Do you hear us? This should be a VERY easy issue to resolve. It's pervasive, well documented, and utterly annoying and frustrating. Please issue a fix ASAP.

Screen freeze with odd squares and occasional crashing

I've had my new IMac 27" (2.66 Ghz i5) for a couple of weeks and it's crashed more times than Windows Vista ever did (about 7 times so far). Every now and again, the screen freezes (sound keeps going) and strange squares appear. The only solution is to hard reboot using the on/off switch.
Today it had trouble starting up again, requiring 2 or 3 goes before coming back to life.
Help! Any suggestions/fixes? Is this a common problem?

Thanks for this. Just taken a look at the Console log and the following is listed at the time of the latest crash:

Screen freezes with restart message

Every time I turn on my Macbook now, after about 5 minutes the screen freezes and a message appears saying I have to press restart/turn my Mac on and the off. The message appears in about 5 languages including German and what looks like Chinese. Anything I'm working on the time is thus lost.
About a month ago I had the hard disk replaced because of a failure and I thought this might cure the problem. However, it didn't and I still keep getting the same message. It's really annoying as it happens quite randomly and means I lose any work I'm working on at the time.
Any suggestions/ideas/solutions?
Thanks.

I'm having exactly the same issue after performing the latest Java update. I'll try rebooting with the installation disk to see if there are any changes. I also had to replace my hard drive disk recently at the Apple store. If nothing changes, I'm calling Apple Care in the morning and will report back.

Screen freezes with LOGIC pro 7 & OSX 3.0.any ideas?

Hi
I have a G5 with dual processors and 1.5 ram/150gb HD. I am running Logic pro 7 on the original OSX 3.0 with a Motu 828mk2 firewire interface.
The screen freezes a lot (sometimes with audio still running) and the only way is to turn it off and reboot.
I am not working with lots of audio or plug ins (maybe one or two tracks at most).
I wondered whether its the OS? maybe i need Tiger?
I would be grateful of any help

As JustinC pointed out, it would be better you were running a more 'mature' OS (also CoreAudio is part of Quicktime so if you have updated QT and not the OS you could, possibly, be running an incompatible version of CoreAudio, i'm not too sure about that.)

If you do, you need to isolate the inter-app inputs from the sequencer input, or be very careful not to select tracks which are assigned to an inter-app port (or 'all' ports)
Oh, and update the OS anyway, there is no good reason to stick with 10.3.0

My screen freeze with Time Machine

Hello,
So I would like to go when Time Machine, and the screen freezes. I can click once on the window then everything is blocked. I do apple alt esc to return to the desktop.It was on an external disk (USB). I tried with another disc and the same thing. Thank you in advance for your answers.
SnowMo

Yes!
Here's a response from Intego...
"Hello,
You will want to add your Time Machine drive to VirusBarrier X5's Trusted Zone so that the items are not scanned as Time Machine reads and copies to that directory.
You can either do this in VirusBarrier X5's Preferences, under the "Scanner" section.
Or you can add it using the contextual menu by holding down the Control key and clicking on the Time Machine backup volume. A pop-up menu will appear, in the "More" submenu is a submenu for "VirusBarrier X5" with a choice of "Add to Trusted Zone". Choosing this will add the item to VirusBarrier's Trusted Zone and keep it from being scanned by the background scanner.
Thank you for choosing Intego."

Imac G5 - screen freezes with patterned screen

Yesterday my Imac G5 suddenly had the whole screen covered with patterns which in turn froze
the machine up.
Tried using the hardware test (both quick & extended) found nothing wrong.
Tried resetting the Pram & Nvram - made no difference
Tried resetting the SMU - made no difference
Ran Disk Utility to repair permissions - all OK
Used DiskWarrior and no problems found.
Powered off and left it all night and restarted this morning all systems appeared OK
This evening this problem returned and had to power off again which is where I am now.
I have looked thru these forums and found reference to faulty capacitors about bulging, leaking etc
and removed the back but could not see any faults
Any one have any clues as to what the problem is?
I would appreciate some help here please
Alan

Nobody knows when Apple releases new models, but I think that they usually come out in the spring.
Or sometimes in the fall. In other words, there is no set time.
Try calling http://www.synaptech.com/catalog/ as I suggested, they replace logic boards very reasonably.

How can I fix problem of Screen freezing in Fullscreen view display.

Click Vie , Full Screen. Have multiple tabs open. Screen freezes. Prompting does not drop the tabs back down to switch pages etc. Happens randomly, several times a day, since upgrade to Firefix 9. Prior to that I never had an issue with the Full screen feature and used it ALL the time. Please help.I do not want to lose this feature!!!

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.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
Try to disable hardware acceleration.

If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

4th Gen iPod only works with usb - freezes with firewire

After a recent iTunes upgrade my my 40 gig Gen 4 iPod started locking up and freezing my G4 and G5 when using firewire to transfer files until I unplugged the iPod.
I found several threads from people with similar problems and tried all the suggestions (with the exception of "dropping" the iPod.)
After a week of troubleshooting, I'm finally successfully transferring files using USB 1 - it also freezes with USB 2.
This is the troubleshooting process I went through to arrive at the above conclusion:
First did the 5Rs.
Deleted and reinstalled iTunes
Followed Mitch's suggestion for using Disk Tools to reformat the iPod (successfully)
Ran some of the internal iPode diagnostic test and they indicate no problem with the drive or USB or firewire.
Ruled out iTunes as the problem because I was having the same problem when I closed iTunes and just copied files directly from the desktop to the iPod. When doing the transfers in the Finder, the Finder would freeze/lock up and I'd have to reboot.
Rules out the computer because the same thing happened with both G4 & G5.
Ruled out something in the user profile because the same thing happened when using my wife's account.
Ruled out the firewire cables because the same thing happened with two different firewire cables.
I've seen several posts from people with similar problems but no solutions. Has anyone cracked this nut? It takes FOREVER to update 40 gig with USB
Dual Processor G4 & G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6) 40 Gig 4th Gen iPod
Dual Processor G4 & G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

It looks like the answer to my problems was a bad hard drive. Sent it to the ipod doctor and after a $159 repair, I'm back in business http://nycipoddoctor.com/

Auto Accept with Screen Sharing with Yosemite Messages App

I take care of many of my family and friend's Macs and I'm really excited that screen sharing with 10.10 Yosemite through iMessage. I'm wondering if anyone know of a way to enrol their Macs into auto-accepting me to control the screen without the need for them to accept it. I know there was a way to do this back in the days of iChat.

Hi,
In Any Finder window use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
Select the Library that appears and the navigate to Application Scripts/com.apple.iChat
Double click the Auto Accept item to open in in the Script Editor (formerly AppleScript Editor)
You will note the Text section at the top is commented out by being between (* and then the text and then *) the stars and parentheses.
Later a single line is also commented out with a # symbol
In iChat the section for Auto Accepting Screen Sharing used to be commentated out (originally it was not even there)
You might decide to comment out the other lines leaving just the bits you want. (or Copy the AppleScript and alter the copy).
Then you can go to Messages > Preferences > General Section and select the AppleScript as the Messages Received item.
NOTE
I have had issue myself with the AppleScripts as they stand in Yosemite.
I have tried several of those that are Included and some that I have collected from iChat and all return and error messages about timing out at present.
Others have reported the same in various Threads here at the Apple Support Communities.
At present there does not seem to be a work around.
