Right 2 inches dark

I just got my computer and love it, but I've noticed that on the right side of my screen, there is a 2 inch bar where the screen itself is darker than the rest of the display. Is this normal? Is this a "Mac" thing? It's sort of annoying.

well obviously it wouldn't be a mac thing, so you must have a defective display, and you should send it into apple...or go to an apple store

My screen displays a shadow from left to right, being darker on the left and brighter on the right. Any advice about how to change this would be appreciated.

My screen from the moment it starts any program appears to be shaded from left to right. The left hand side of the display appears to be darker than the right half of the screen. Can someone please advise what I can do to alter this. Have I pressed something I shouldn,t have? Or is there a problem with my display?
Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks.

Does not sound too healthy! You should take it to the Genius bar in the Apple store. May need the hardware looked at...
It's most probably a backlight issue. Take some piccys of it while it isnt working now!!

Gradient Layer Issue

Mac OS X 10.5.8; PSE 6.0
I would like to create a layer that contains a gradient that shades from a color to transparent (not white). I can't see any way to do this since the gradient tool/color selector doesn't offer "none" as a color selection. Reducing the transparency of the layer doesn't work either because the entire layer is affected equally.
The effect I want to achieve is to gradually darken an underlying, background layer containing an image from right to left so that the left side of the image is unaffected and the right appears darker. How can I achieve this?
TIA,
Beth

Hi,
You specify a transparency in a gradient using the Gradient Editor. Assuming you are using the gradient tool, look in the options bar for the window that displays the currently selected gradient. Double click this window. The gradient editor dialog will come up. If it's just color to transparent, you might consider using the foreground color to transparent preset. You can click the color stop; then the black color swatch to change the color if desired. You can also build your own custom gradient. Opacity stops are the top pencil like arrows...fill in % box to specify opacity for that stop. Here's a tutorial on using the Gradient Editor.

You can also get this same dialog using the gradient fill adjustment layer and gradient map adjustment layer...same with these items when selected from the menu bar.

Help with correcting screen PPI/DPI???

I just got a new 20 inch iMac. The screen resolution is at full, so the ppi (DPI?) is like 98 or 96 or something, but it seems like the computer thinks it is at 72! This is bad, because in Word, the page is too small when I set it to 100% (I have to set it to 136 percent to get it right), G-Ruler is not showing the right inches size, and there are similar problems with other programs. How do I tell the computer what the PPI should be? Is there something I can download to fix this, or is there some admin setting I haven't noticed?

May I suggest that you post in Your Intel-based iMac Display forum where there will be others who will be familiar with your hardware.
Good luck.

Flash CC 2014 unusable on Surface Pro

Flash CC 2014 on Surface Pro with "disable display scaling on high DPI" checked is unusable.
It's difficult to explain the problem, but basically all content within any window (including tool bar window) is pushed to the right, so far that it is inaccessible. I'm not exaggerating when I say it's unusable. No mater how large you make a window, all the information stays outside of it.
This is a serious issue to me, please tell me that Adobe is trying to fix this.

Flash CC 2014 does not function on the Surface Pro 1 whether display scaling is on or off.
When "disable display scaling on high DPI" is checked:
As I mentioned, it looks like the screenshot above (with windows offset to the right). If I were to draw a line with the pencil tool, the line would actually appear offset to the right -inches away from the stylus.
With "display scaling" unchecked:
The windows are not offset in this case, BUT using the pencil tool has a slightly similar effect. As soon as the stylus simply touches the canvas, a line appears from where the stylus is touching reaching across the screen to the right.

[nForce] K7N2 Delta2 Platinum w/Version B.5 BIOS, trouble with post and XP install.

I have
K7N2 Delta2 Platinum
MS-6570E Version 1.0 motherboard
AMD Sempron 2600+
Elixir 500MB PC-3200 DDR (3 sticks, total 1.5GB)
eVga Nvidia MX4000 64MB AGP card
Maxtor ATA-100 PCI controller
I pulled everything else out of the box. I've tried the B.3, B.4, and B.5 BIOS and set everything to Optimized Defaults. I created a striped RAID Array of 4 WD 80GB drives on the primary and secondary onboard controller. The CD is on the Maxtor controller.
There are some problems I can't figure out.
1) The mobo identifies the CPU as Athlon XP 1100
2) The POST hangs just before seeking the IDE drives. I have to hit a key for it to continue.
3) The LED's on the D bracket have the top right light dark until the key is hit. Something to do with initializing the floppy controller.
4) The XP install fails to a blue screen just after hitting the F8 key to accept the license. The code is 0x0000007B.
Can someone tell me what these issues have to do with each other and how I can correct them?

Quote from: dmichael34 on 17-September-05, 22:42:56
The Maxtor controller was removed when you originally suggested to do so. The add on controller is an SIL 680 RAID.
I will try reseating the processor next.
I can also attempt a boot through POST without the array, as this shouldn't affect the boot process.
I did notice that the ctrl-alt-del on the LEFT side of the keyboard doesn't work.
However, the ctrl-alt-del on the RIGHT side of the keyboard does work.
Maybe I've been looking for a serious problem and overlooking the obvious.
I do not see how the CPU temp would cause a pause at boot until "any key" is hit... it sounds more to me like the system has paused to either look for a device or boot a BIOS on a device card.
If I am not mistaken, you are using a RAID card to boot windows? Is this correct?
If that is true it is possible the boot sequence is not set correctly in the BIOS such as "BOOT OTHER DEVICE" ( I cannot remember the exact term in the BIOS)
I am not sure about that but you could try changing the boot sequence so your RAID card is above "HARD DISK" on the list

Odd color output on roll-over images. (Not the normal problem)

Hi, I realize that iWeb has problems with color out puts: converting them from hex to rgb. However, I didn't think that this affected images. The problem is that my rollover images don't match the color they should. The buttons are a rounded corner so I need the background image there to make it a JPEG. Whenever I bring in the images through iWeb they match perfectly, even when published. These images, that are brought into the site via rollover code match within iWeb but not when published. Is this the same problem stated in many other posts? Thanks for any help!
-iMaster

Sorry, no URL as this is just the homepage and I don't want to upload it yet, as it would not match the rest of the site (this is a redesign) but I can give you an image: http://twitpic.com/atpxm The one on the left was imported through iWeb and blends perfectly, whereas the image on the right is darker.

Help! I've lost the ability to import!

You folks on this forum do a heck of a job, so maybe you can help a poor soul like me...
There I was, minding my own business, using iPhoto 2, no worries, when all of a sudden, I couldn't import photos from either one of my cameras anymore.
Does it have anything to do with my upgrading to OS X 10.4.4?
Both cameras exported to iPhotos perfectly before the upgrade. A coincidence?
Now I get a blank in the little preview screen, but the blue line inches along to the right, inches along no problem. Only when it's done, nothing shows up in the iPhoto library.
Any help appreciated.

Hi, Wrinkle. Given that the problem has accompanied your camera from Mac to Mac, it seems quite possible, even likely, that there's something wrong with the way the camera, its memory card, or your images are configured — at least as far as iPhoto is concerned.
First the pictures. Are you shooting in RAW format by any chance? Since Software Update or some other meddlesome intruder has inexplicably replaced my iPhoto 4 Help files with the ones for iPhoto 5 Help, I happen to know that iPhoto 5 can handle RAW files. What I don't know is whether iPhoto 4 can. Make sure your camera is set to save your pictures in JPEG or TIFF format, then test iPhoto's Import function again.
Next, the card. Try reformatting it — in the camera, not on the Mac. Take a handful of throwaway photos, then test again.
Now for the camera. Are you sure it's set in the proper mode to transfer photos to a computer, and not in one of its picture-taking modes? Reread the instructions for transferring images to make sure there isn't some step you're forgetting, particularly if it's been a while since you tried this. Forgive me if this is elementary. I don't take you for a moron — anyone can forget things.
Lastly, your USB cable. Is it in good shape, to all outward appearances? If it's damaged even slightly, that might be your whole problem right there.

When i open my computer the login page comes up and then goes dark right away. i have to shut down and turn on to get to work. just a month old mbp 15. just started it today. any suggestions. software says it is up to date.

when i open up computer the login screen comes up and then goes dark right away. can't do anything with it. close lid and open up and it comes up again and then goes dark. i have to shut off and restart to get through the login page. then seems to work untill i close lid again. just started this today. software is up to date. using a month old mbp 15. any suggestions? thanks.

You could try wiping the hard drive and reinstalling the OS and all your programs.
Did you install any programs yesterday?
If not it may be best to take it to an Apple care center and have it checked out. Take it in while it is asleep so you ccan show then what is happening.

When I right click on a graphic to view image, the page background is dark. How do I change the color?

When I right click on an image and choose "view image" from the list, it opens a page with the image on it but the background of the page is dark gray. How do I change the background color that the images appears on?

It is a new feature in Firefox 11+ versions to display a single image centered with an almost black background.
It is added by this stylesheet:
* resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css
You can look at this extension to set your preferred background color and remove the centering if you display a single image in a tab.

Hp 2311x monitor hs horizontal display shift right about 2 inches

My HP 2311x monitor worked fine on my old XP system. When installed on my new Asus desktop computer with Windows 8.1, the display shifted right about 2 inches. I have a black area on the entire left side of the screen, and can't get to my charm bar or other items on the right 2 inches or so of the display. Nothing I do seems to affect this. Any ideas, anyone?

In Camera Raw? The Workflow options are now responsible for actual image size. See Julianne Kost's blog post. (There's a video that discusses this in detail at the beginning there as well.)

I walked into a dark room with my iPad and tripped on something. I then dropped the iPad on my bed. When I fell my elbow landed right in the middle of the screen of the iPad. I have a 30 dollar case. Now half the screen is black. What should I do?

Not much you can do other than to take or send your iPad to Apple and pay their replacement charge.

Lenovo G480 lcd darker on right side.

Dear All,
Greetings
Some days ago my laptop's screen got a bit darker on right side.
Now its more dark & it looks like different. Its pixels also show different colour. On an external monitor gives a perfect picture. But LCD has problem.
Please help..!!
Lenovo G480 and graphic adapter is of Nvidia.
Regards

hi hm_khawaja,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
If you boot into the BIOS (F2) and you still see that one side of the LCD is darker than usual then your conclusion about the LCD being the problem is correct as the backlight on that corner is most likely malfunctioning.
If the unit's still under warranty, I recommend that you contact lenovo and report the issue. Otherwise, you may need to replace the entire LED screen.
See page 106 of the HMM for a list of compatible LCD panels
