Screen capture not working right in 10.6.2

Since installing 10.6.2, screen capture of a window puts a black border around the captured window instead of the shadow. Any idea's why?

there have been many posts about this. could be a bug.

you can try a few things suggested in those threads. first, go to the directory homefodler/library/preferences and delete the files com.apple.systemuiserver and com.apple.screencapture.plist. (the second file may not exists) and run the following terminal command
killall SystemUIServer
try taking a screencapture again. if that does not help install Onyx

and use the parameters tab to either turn off the shadow in screenshots or change the image format used for screencaptures to png.

Screen Capture not working after upgrade to Yosemite

I have Yosemite OS X 10.10.1 and since my upgrade from Mavericks I have not been able to perform any sort of screen capture. I have tried Command+Shift+4 and Command+Shift+3 and neither of those work. There is no camera shutter noise made and no files saved to desktop or elsewhere when I try these commands. I could use the commands just fine on Mavericks to capture the screen. Anyone have any help on this?

Do you have Dropbox installed? If so, go to the menu bar, select it, hit the gear at the bottom right, and then Preferences/Import/Screenshots - make sure the box isn't checked.
You can also make sure they are set to go to your Desktop.

Screen capture not working.

For well over two years now by screen capture function does not work, the screen cross hair or full screen capture icons appear but after selection nothing shows on the desktop... Can someone help? I have upgraded several OS versions in this time. I've had a look through some forum answers but can't find a fix so opening this as a new discussion.

Hey... I was plugged into my 24" monitor and after unplugging it... everything works as normal... kinda weird... any other thoughts?

Screen Capture Not Working Properly Since Upgrade

The following keyboard shortcut does not work on my laptop:
Command + Shift + 4 + Spacebar
When I have an external monitor connected, in mirrored mode, it doesn't work. If I disconnect the monitor or change the monitor arrangement into extended mode, it works fine. All the other shortcuts (e.g. CmdShift3) work fine.
Anyone else have this problem?

OK, I've got a Mac Pro with an ATI Radeon X1900 card and two displays: an Apple 30" and a very old Apple 23" Cinema Display. The latter is attached using the very expensive Apple converter. I just put them into mirror mode and CommandShift+4Spacebar worked fine. If someone at Apple tried to duplicate the problem with whatever hardware they had on hand and got the same result I just did (namely it works), then they would conclude there is no inherent bug in the OS regarding mirrored displays and screenshots. There are two other possiblities:
1. Something is conflicting in your installation of the OS
2. There is a bug in the OS, but only for some particular hardware configurations
To eliminate the first possiblity the only thing that can work is for you to do a new installation of the OS on your hardware and see if the problem is still present. So in this case a re-install is not a frivolous suggestion.
There is one other thing to try: create a new test user, leave it as Apple creates it, log into that account and try the screenshot shortcut. That will eliminate some peculiarity associated with your regular account. Of course, it doesn't eliminate the possiblity that something is wrong with the OS as installed, or that something you have installed that is available to all accounts is causing the problem.
You might also try a Safe Mode boot. Problem is that disables everything not strictly necessary to run the computer, and I'm not sure whether the extension(s) necessary for dual displays and screenshots would work correctly, but it is certainly worth a try. Hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime, and wait until you see the login screen with the "Safe Mode" message (the boot will take longer than usual). Login and see how (or if) things work.

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 S-Pen screen capture not working after Lollipop Update

Really annoyed that I updated! It's been a pain in the a**, and more trouble then it's worth! Most annoying thing of all is the spen no longer does screenshots!!!
Anyone???
Or give me another way to screenshot??

I'm really sorry I updated as well. You have other options for screenshot:
- Press and hold the power button at the same time for a second or two
or
- When you remove your s-pen and the wheel appears, you can click on the
2nd icon from the right
My preferred method is still using the button on the pen and I'm
exceptionally annoyed this is no longer working.

MDT 2012 Capture not working right?

I am trying to capture an image of a computer that has been set up.
It is running Windows POS Embedded XP. Basically the computer has been setup with it's software and drivers and I want to push an image back to WDS so I can set up more machines.
I ran a test using a Sysprep Capture Task Sequence on a Windows 7 test machine. It pushed the image back with the software I installed however at the same time it looked like it installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 and my systems settings were all changed.
The only thing that remained the same were the applications I had installed.
I don't fully understand how the sysprep works. I thought that using this task sequence would just capture an image of the current setup, push it back and save it as a .wim file. Why do you need to select the OS as part of the sequence?
Any help is much appreciated.
Stefan.

I bought an IPAD air from state and the screen is not working correctly and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

i bought an IPAD air (32 gb wifi only) from USA just one month ago and the screen is not working correctly(picture attached) and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that fixes it ? You might be able to get warranty service in Egypt for your iPad, but the warranty includes :
IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE AND iPAD SERVICE.
Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone and iPad to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
As it's wifi-only you should have a better chance of it being serviced under warranty, but there are no guarantees, it might depend upon the repairer.

Full Screen in Premiere not working right

I tend to go into Cinema mode a lot because I edit on one screen, but whenever I hit the Ctrl+Tilde to access it, the full screen is not setup right. It's like the full screen is bigger than it should be and it's hard to tell if everything looks right, because it definitely doesn't look right. I have black bars on, but I do not see the bottom bar and it looks like it's scaled bigger than it should. What is wrong?

>Blackmagic Footage
Did you check with that vendor to see if there is (or needs to be) a device driver update for CC2014?
I have read that the "internals" changed from CC to CC2014, so it MAY be possible you need a new driver from Blackmagic

My USB port (closest to the screen) is not working? And what is an IR Receiver in my USB port?

Hi everyone,
     I recently found out that my USB port, closest to my screen, is not working. Before I called Apple Care for help, I performed a PRAM and a SMC RESET, which unfortunately did not work. I called Apple Care and they help me troubleshoot simple resets such as, shutdowns and restarts. The representative I spoke with conluded that the physical hardware has an issue and must be brought to the Apple Store for a diagnosis. I called the Apple Store to at least budget the fee for getting a USB port fixed and it's about $300.00. I never dropped my macbook or had any sort tactile encounterment with hard surfaces by dropping or hitting. I don't understand how my macbook pro would be physically damaged. I then thought maybe my software was out of date (right now I am running 10.9 Mavericks) or I forgot to do the minor software updates, but I was at a lost again because my macbook is up-to-date. I searched for further help and found a way to monitor what's plugged into my usb ports. (I read in the apple forums that a girl had nothing in her usb ports, but upon looking at the System Information> Hardware> USB, that the macbook recognizes that there are drives in the ports) I looked at my ports; one is being used by wirless mouse (the port that works) and the other (the port that doesnt work) is being used by an "IR RECEIVER". Now, is the IR Receiver actually using that port and that's why my macbook cannot recognize other devices inserted into that port? Or is the IR RECEIVER suppose to be in that port and that the hardware for that port is simply damaged (which would mean I need $300.00 to get that fixed)? I know this is a lot, but someone help me?

I can help with the "IR Receiver" part of your question. That's the piece of hardware inside older MacBook Pros (MBPs) that lets them work with the Apple Remote. "IR" is the standard abbreviation for "infrared," the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum used by remotes for many common devices (stereos, cable boxes, Apple TVs, etc.). The remote sends a coded stream of IR pulses; a corresponding receiver in the target device "sees" the infrared light and decodes it. The MBP's internal IR Receiver sends the received signals to the processor via USB through an internal hub.
The most recent MacBook Pros have dropped the IR receiver and no longer work with the Apple Remote.

Remote not working right

I've had my FIOS about 2 months, put new batteries in remote and it is still not working right. Some things work fine. Other things stopped working - can't delete a DVR show, can't change channels with one digit, but it will if I add all 4 digits, info box on bottom of screen never disappears (unless I hit exit). What's wrong?
My second TV set-up is OK.
Solved!

Might not even be a remote issue. Have you tried rebooting the box?
If you do think it's the remote it's still under warranty.
You can get a free replacement easy within the dvr's menu.
Here is a page that tells you ways to get a replacement.

Get a new remote and if you still have the same issues then you'll know its the dvr that needs to be replaced.

HT4623 My iPad mini is not working right ?? On some apps

My iPad mini is not working right on some apps

You can always try to reset your device and see if it helps matters any:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

Since updating to 706 the sound on my ipad2 is not working right. On videos or music. There is constant distortion and what sounds like interference. Any ideas?

Since updating to 706 the sound on my ipad2 is not working right--on videos or music. There is distortion and some kind of interference at all times. Any ideas?

Has the unit EVER been jailbroke?
If "No," first try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

HT1212 My screen is not working

I can not enter my passcode nor turn my phone off to back up my phone. I am getting a new iPhone and i need to back my current one right now, but iTunes is not letting me due to my passcode. Since my screen is not working, how can I back up my account without having to use my screen?

Do as the User's Guide suggests and restore the device.
If the device has been used as designed, contact would be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service and pictures taken with the device would regularly be copied off to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have not been using the device as designed, the data is likely lost and you've learned a valuable lesson about backing up your data.

Safari 5.1.2 Not working right after install

Hi, after installing the update for Snow Leopard safari is not working right. Some pages don't load, and other don't load correctly.
I have to keep hitting refresh two or three times. Also thunbnails are not displaying. Even the apple page comes up looking buggy.
Please help!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. First, disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, monitor, and Ethernet, if applicable. Boot in safe mode and log in as yourself. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
During startup, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all, perhaps including wireless networking on certain Macs. If you usually connect to the Internet via WiFi, and it doesn’t work in safe mode, connect using an Ethernet cable. If you can’t do that, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and perform a safe login, as follows: Enter your credentials at the login screen, then hold down the shift key and click the “Log in” button. Keep holding the key until the menu bar appears. In this mode, your login items, among other things, won’t load.
In safe mode, test again. Same problem(s) now?
After testing, reboot (if you booted in safe mode) or log out/log in (if you performed a safe login) as usual.

I just took my new MacBook Pro out of the box and the screen will not work. Display is, black no life to the screen at all

So I just ordered my first Mac book Pro. I took it out of the box and hit the power button to do the start up and the screen will not work at all. I shut the computer off and back on again. I plugged it in and unplugged it. I've done everything I can think of and the screen still stays blank with no life at all

Is the battery charged? Press the little button on the left edge, near the front. If no green dots, no charge.
Does it charge? When you connect the MagSafe charger, does the pilot light on the plug light up?
Does it actually start? Should sound a chime after you press the power button on the top/right corner. If it chimes, does the Caps Lock pilot light when you press it?
If it starts and Caps Lock does flash on and off, have you tried pressing the screen brightness control for awhile? F2 turns up the brightness, may be turned fully down.
