Safari display has gone nuts

Yesterday my Safari display has gone nuts. Just displays a long list of items on the website....no graphics and the links don't work. Every site is the same.
I did a restart.....I did a shutdown....still the same.
Firefox works fine.
I tried to find a download to reinstall Safari but no luck.
How can I get Safari working again?
thanx
Peachie

Well, I only have one extension: AdBlock. I disable that and now it works fine...everything is loading.
But it used to work fine with adblock enabled. What has changed?
Without Adblock I find Safari difficult to use.
Thanx for your reply.

My Safari page has gone dark and is totally inactive - how do I get it active again?

My Safari page has gone inactive. How do I reactivate the main Safari page?

Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Saji-
Can you still access your Bookmarks at the top of the Safari screen? If so, select it and choose History. Then click Clear History at the top of the History window.
If that does not help, double-click the Home button. A row of recent Apps will line up along the bottom of the screen. Scroll across and find Safari. Press and hold on it until it starts to wiggle. Then click on the red minus sign to remove it from the list. Click the Home button to stop the wiggling and again to return to the Home screen. Now see if Safari is working any better.
If still no improvement, try resetting (rebooting) the iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

Satellite L350-170 display has gone funny pictures

Hi
i have a Satellite L350-170 but the display has gone funny pictures have started to look like negatives and colours are not the same also and there is like ghost screens underneath my current screen.
I have tried unistalling drivers and reinstalling but its just the same
Any help with this would be appreciated thank you

Hi
Test the notebook in connection with external monitor.
Check if the same funny pictures would be visible on external monitor.
I think if the same will appear on second monitor, then the issue might be related to graphic card.
In such case the motherboard with the GPU chip should be replaced.

I Book G4 display has gone black...Help

The display on my I Book G4 has gone black. I have tried to change the brightness in my settings, but the brightness is already all the way up. The only way I can see my screen is to shine a flashlight down at it and then I can see a tiny bit. Only enough to know that my computer is on and just completely dark. Does anyone know what the problem might be?

From looking around at other issues similar to mine it appears that I may have a bad graphics card. I do not have apple care so will they still charge me for this repair or not. If they do how much will it be?

MacBook Pro Core Duo 2GHz display has gone all weird!

I've just booted my MacBook Pro up and the initial Apple logo you see on boot up was looking all weird. Like the lines were broken up, the picture had gone kinda fuzzy.
Reaching the desktop, the OS X default background had turned in to about 6 colours. Blue, purple, green, gold, turquoise, yellow.
I've tried rebooting several times, I've even booted in to my Vista partition but none has fixed the problem.
Connecting my external display to it (30-inch Cinema Display) shows my picture perfectly fine, so I guess it's a display issue?

Thanks for the reply.
I've just been on the phone to their overseas technical support with the most unclear line ever.
Because my MBP is over its 90 day complimentary support, they need me to take it to a service center.
This is the third time I've had a problem with this same unit.
First time was the recall for the whining noise, second the hard drive died and now this is the third with the display.
I can't believe Apple will not offer me anything better than to bring it in to a service center.
I remember doing that when the hard drive died and without a car it was a nightmare getting there, back and there again to collect and return.
So I said, how about I pay for a courier to send it to you and for it to come back? Nope, they don't offer that service.
I hear all sorts of great stuff about Apple Customer Support, but it's a shame the majority of these stories come from the US.
Why is Apple UK so insistent on giving service that is under par with what I can get with a £300 laptop from Currys or PC World?

Display has gone - can anyone assist me to do a final time machine backup?

Hi all,
My macbook pro for the last couple of months has done something odd sporadically - the display kind of crashed (ie looked like the screen was smashed pixels everywhere) so I assumed my mac was on its last days and ordered a new one, hopefully arriving tomorrow.(i did get it in 2006 or 2007)
However, last week the display went for good, and i really cant see my screen very well. I tried turning it on and off lots of times, and while this worked for a little while (ie if i turned it off 20 times once might work) it doesnt anymore. (of course the lesson learnt is the minute things start to seem wrong do the back up! grr) I did back up everything with time machine but not that often...the last one was probably a month or so ago, so i would like to do a final back up to make a copy of anything new that was added in that last month, as there were plenty of important additions
As i can see a tiny bit of the screen around all the distorted areas, i might be able to tweak a couple of options in time machine, if someone could kind of direct me - ie, what happens when time machine starts etc and what I should click, i might be able to do another back up.
my time machine back up is on an external hard drive...and from what i remember, when i plug in the external hard drive it automatically starts backing up. however, now, i can see the icon in the top corner (next to the wifi signal, spotlight icons etc) but it doesnt spin around (the movement it made whilst backing up)...any advice?
alternatively, would a better solution be to kind of remotely salvage contents of my dead macbook with my new one? is that something i can do even though I won't be able to adjust security settings/bluetooth visibility settings etc on my dead macbook (forgive my ignorance i really know nothing about this, (obviously) just that I know thats possible in some cases to repair etc)
any advice would be more than welcome, i assume its a memory issue that has caused my screen to pack up like this. the trouble is you have a half decent view of the desktop at first (plus i can remember where most things are) but once you start clicking or moving things the display goes a bit mad! sadly i can't take it to an apple genius or store as i live quite far from one, and was quite resigned to scrapping this one and getting a new update anyway, so i really dont want to replace the memory etc for something i wont use again.
Many, many, many thanks in advance!
from what i can recall, i think its a silver macbook pro 15' bought around 2006 or 2007, I think it has a 2.2 ghz processor and had about 150 gb hard drive.

Pull out the hard drive, put it in a nice external case (I like the ones from Other World Computing macsales.com). You can then transfer the data to your replacement Mac as soon as you get it, and can work from the data on that drive with any Mac until you get a new one of your own.
While you're at it, get another external drive that's at least as large as the drive in your new Mac to use for backups. Keep on it a recent bootable backup of your drive (using Carbon Copy Cloner, backuplist+, or something similar) as well as frequent Time Machine or similar backups on some other device.

My display has gone funny for no reason.

Everything viewed on my computer has increased in size. Every application I open is too large for my screen, the font and window. I have tried changing view specifications but it not helping with all the problems at the moment. Is there anyone who can help me with this?

Hi, act222. Welcome to the Discussions.
1. Try starting up in Safe Mode, then resetting your Display preferences (System Preferences > Displays). Then restart normally.
2. Reset PRAM and NVRAM. Then reset your Display preferences if required.
3. Run the Apple Hardware Test that came with your Mac. It will test the video subsystem. See my "Apple Hardware Test" FAQ for comprehensive advice on using the Apple Hardware Test in troubleshooting, including running the test in Loop Mode.
4. What changes did you make to your Mac before this problem arose?
Good luck!

Help. display has gone permanently dim!

i was downloading some things, fell asleep, i remember seeing the screen saver activated at some point. When i awoke the screen was black, the computer had gone to sleep. When i moved the mouse the screen activated yet it only returned to the dim screen(pre sleep brightness). the brightness slider in the Display preferences menu moves yet the screen brightness doesnt change. The manual controls (f1 f2) also have no effect. Since i was downloading at the time im wondering if it is a software problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
1. Try doing a Parameter RAM reset - hold down apple/option/p/r keys at start up and wait for three chimes before releasing the keys.
2. The screen brightness controls are only active when the ambient light levels are low, cover the back of both speakers to mimic darkness and see if they work then.

My Thunderbolt display has gone noticeably dim with the mis-press of a button.

I have a dual monitor set up with a brand new 15" MBP and Thunderbolt display. I was working on the Thunderbolt display and pressed a key and now my screen is noticeably dimmer, even though brightness settings are all the way up. Once I unplug the display from my MBP, the MBP takes on the settings and becomes noticeably dimmer regardless of the brightness settings turned up. I'm unsure as to how to fix this. Any tips on what I can do or mistakes I may have made?
Thanks.

After a few reboots of my Mac, reconnects to the display, and restarts of iTunes, the problem seems to be gone. I am unable to reproduce it now. So, yay! But for a while I was quite concerned. I haven't the slightest idea what was causing this problem, but there were many factors at play. Like playing to multiple sources in iTunes, equalizer settings, etc. I jut simply don't know enough about the technology.

My CPU Has Gone Nuts

Observing either iStat or Activity Monitor my two CPU windows usually show about the same amount of activity. In iStat this looks like a blue, wave line across the bottom of the squares representing the CPUs. (Core 2 Duo) Usually the windows seem to be pretty much in sync.
There were some Apple updates waiting for me last night, one was a Mac OS X update but I didn't really pay close attention. I installed the three that were there.
This morning when I booted my MacBook I noticed one of the CPU windows was maxed out and the fan was running. The fan never runs when I boot. Then the one CPU window would show the activity go down to nothing and the other CPU window would max out. I've never seen this before.
The CPU temp varies from 65 to 73, doing nothing. I removed all auto launched apps at startup, shut down the computer, then restarted it. No diff.
Any ideas?
BTW, I realize my fan is always running, what I meant was it's not usually working hard enough to hear it.

lol Staying one step ahead of you.
Uninstalled and reinstalled the latest driver. But that wasn't the problem.
I had sent a print job to the printer the day before, but nothing happened so I assumed it was a wi-fi issue and didn't feel like dealing with it then. No print dialog or error message had come up. Turns out the printer decided it was out of ink even though there is still a little ink left in the cartridge. (At what works out to about $1000.00 a gallon for the stuff I'd like the choice to run it dry) So I guess the driver was saying "Print!" and the printer was saying "No!" and neither displayed an error message or dialog box of any kind. Once the MacBook was restarted the argument would continue.
The most annoying aspect of the whole situation is that it seems to be a bug in that part of Lexmark's software that tells you it's time to replace your ink cartridge. God forbid you should get a few extra pages out of a cartridge.
Thanks for your input.

IdeaPad integrated webcam has gone nuts.

Hello.
I've been using my 11" ideapad netbook for about a year now, but today its camera decided to retire, I guess. Here's how the display looks like:
That's my window and some trees outside
I have absolutely no idea what's going on and since I know I can't play around with the green & purple image of myself for long, I need some help.
Thanks in advance.

Time Machine has Gone Nuts

I hope somebody can help with this. I have an aluminum Macbook Pro with a 160 GB internal drive and an external Seagate 300 GB drive. There's about 50 GB of miscellaneous stuff on the external drive alongside a Time Machine backup -- in the same partition.
Lately every backup takes forever -- a half hour or more. And the time is increasing. It seems like soon Time Machine will have to run continuously to back up once an hour. During the backup it churns the drive mercilessly -- the head chatters and chatters throughout the backup. If I select the Backups.backupdb and get info on it, I get the same sounds -- and it takes forever, many minutes, to determine the size of that folder. I usually lose patience before it's finished.
However, the backups seem fine. I can open Time Machine and restore from a backup without problems. In all other ways, the drive seems to be functioning fine. I have no reason to believe it's failing.
So -- could drive fragmentation be the culprit? Do I not have enough free space on the drive? (just 15 GB). Can I degrag the drive with Drive Genius 2? Any other suggestions?
Thanks very much in advance.
Steve

Below are a few more console items from that time period. (I'm downloading Time Machine buddy but I assume it'll show the same stuff.) I have no idea whether any of this is relevant, but they're the only items that seem to imply errors. (Except the one in the previous post "Unable to rebuild path cache")
I should add that the backup this morning took well over an hour, at which point I stopped it. It was backing up roughly one day of changes -- not a whole lot of stuff. If I left it on all the time it would never stop working. And throughout the entire process the disk is making a constant churning noise with the head moving all over the place. Just doing a get info on backups.backupdb creates the same noise.
I've read the D2 section in the TM troubleshooting doc and I'm afraid I don't see anything relevant there. I'd long ago removed the TM disk from Spotlight indexing and I don't run an antivirus ap. I will run disk utility on the disk shortly.
My next step is to give up and switch disks. I've got a new 1.5T that I'm going to partition -- one for TM, one for everything else. And I'll start with a fresh backup. But this old backup has stuff going back nearly a year. If needed, can I unplug the new drive, plug in the old one and go back in time with it?
Thanks again,
Steve

Help! My optical drive has gone nuts!

I ejected a CD this morning and since then the optical drive has been making eject noises every 30 seconds or so, even though there's nothing in the slot. I tried rebooting the computer but that did nothing. I also tried restarting it and pressing on the trackpad to see if there was another CD stuck in it but nothing came out. Can someone please help?
