Screen creaks when pushed on left side corners

I just got a 16GB 2nd Gen iTouch.
I've noticed the when I push on the left, top and bottom corners, the screen "creaks" a little bit. It's almost like a clicking sound. It bugs the heck out of me although the itouch otherwise operates fine.
Have you noticed this? Just rotate your iTouch so that the power button is facing left. Now holding it in both hands like you were playing a game, use your left and or right thumb to push down on the corner of the glass screen and see if you don't feel and hear a slight click or creak.
I think I'm going to return mine and get another before I go bonkers.

It's more of a click I guess and when I hold my iTouch at arms length...in "normal" operating position I'd say, the click is audible. It's not a loud sound by any means, but it is definitely noticeable. I suppose some people wouldn't even notice or care. Unfortunately it drives me bonkers and I'm concerned that the glass is not secure or fitting the case properly. It's a bit distracting to me.

  • Macbook, "save document" screen is not visible on left side and I can't reach the buttons to shrink it

    I have a mac book with windows platform.  When I attempt to save a document my save screen is not positioned for me to see the whole thing.  I would resize it, but the resize arrows are off the screen with the entire left side of the window.  How can I get the left side back into view or how can I shrink it so the whole screen fits in the window?  Help.

    I found a solution that allows me to just see the "Cancel" and "Save" buttons and, more importantly, allowed me to get at the options screen to attach a password.
    With the Save Screen open, I pressed the yellow "Iconize" button in the top left. I then "uniconized" the window by clicking on the icon in the dock and the save screen had reduced in size just enough for me to see everything I needed.
    Sadly, I still couldn't get at the resize handles at the bottom right.
    Hope this helps.

  • Screen Creaking when moved..

    A few days after getting my macbook, when the computer is jiggled, or the screen is moved, the hinge makes a really annoying creaking sound,, it didnt bother me until today when it was getting extra loud and annoying!
    Can i get it fixed, and smooth again?

    I can't see no reason why they would not fix it for you. Bringing attention to your Macbook in this way is prob. not what you or even Apple wants!

  • What makes applications "snap" to the left side of the screen & get smaller

    On occasion, an application such as Word will suddenly move from its normal location on the screen over to the far left side of the screen, with the top left corner of the pane in the top left corner of the screen. The application pane size reduces to about half its width.
    I know I've read or seen something about this, but can't remember where - something about applications resizing to the "best" size for the screen and other open applications. Can anyone enlighten me - I'm hoping there is some setting or keyboard shortcut that is responsible, and can be unticked!

    I don't know if this will help but:
    I have had this happen to me lots of times. But it only seems to happen in applications that don't support Spaces, or have problems dealing with Spaces. I only get windows to resize when I overload my system with a lot of things, (multiple Safari windows, multiple Finder windows, multiple Photoshop windows, etc...) I have discovered that the only applications that try to resize themselves are Safari and Word.
    I theorize that there is something inside of OS X to help CPU load, and that is one of the functions (smaller windows on the 1st Space take less CPU then large ones on other Spaces.) When I was board, I tried playing around with this, and the aforementioned case seemed to be true for me, but I have no idea. It could have all been coincidence.

  • The left side of the screen cannot be seen

    My firefox screen is not showing its left side. The problem is that it is unusually wider on the right side and this has cut off the left side, and now I cannot see most of the information on the screen.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.

  • Satellite P100 - white screen on left side aproxx 1.5 inchs

    My screen has gone white down left side about 1.5 inch wide.
    Anybody have the answer to this problem
    Many thanks

    having the same issue with a white stripe down screen on my p100-188.
    I checked output from video 'chip' by connecting to another monitor= no issues working screen in full.
    I would have opted for a new screen BUT i am told there may be a differnt issue with mine as it did (twice) work as normal ( always a white stripe now)
    so it is just possible it may be my video connection lead that is a problem ( one on order now)
    failing that a new screen is only option.
    E=bay approx £90.
    if you only ever get the white stripe ? check output on another monitor etc If it still has white stripe it will be the grahic chip (video chip at fault) if and most likely it is a full working screen then its more than likely you need a new screen.
    sadly many laptops suffer this fault. a frreidly ? PC repairer wil be delighted to give you assistance for monetary renumeration.

  • When I try to sync my iPhone with iTunes on my PC, a screen comes up that has the music square icons with music notes in the squares.  Not the home screen I am used to seeing that shows all categories on the left side.

    When I plug my iPhone into PC to sync, I am getting a screen with music squares with notes in the icon.  I was getting the iTunes home sync screen with the categories on the left side.  And it had options along the top as sync items.  It will sync, but I have no idea where the iTunes screen went. 
    I also will get an error message that says "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected".  But, it does back up and it is connected.  Any ideas out there as to what is going on and how I could fix this?  Thanks. 

    The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version.  You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes.  Or you can adapt to the new look.

  • When clicking the itunes icon on my left side of screen a window pops up and says i need to disable the compatability, I tried to do this from what it prompted me to do, but it still say problem unresolved

    I have not been able to access the itunes store for the past month, it has been a long time since I have downloaded/purchased anything, probably around christmas time, but the problem is I click on the itunes store and the grey zebra striped bar just keeps running accross the top indefinitely, one other thing is that when I click on my itunes icon on the left side of my screen a window pops up and tells me to turn off compatibility, so I tried to follow the prompts through the properties from right clicking the itunes icon but after the thing runs its check and i click on make suggested changes, it still says incompatible.  I have no idea what to do and this is extremely frustrating, please help!!

    You should take it to an Apple store or an AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) Carefully inspect the hinge joint and make sure there is no debris that you can see, you can try carefully sliding some sticky tape thru the joint to clear any loose stuff out. But this sounds like there might be more going on here, and the hinge is something that you do not want to fool with.

  • When I render my video I get a black bar on the left side of the screen

    I just upgraded to FCS 2 and so far it's been a complete waste of money. I'm having nothing but problems with FCP, Compressor, and QMaster. I will just post my FCP problem here.
    I've edited a weekly video podcast and everything looks great, until I render it and export it. When I render it, I get a constant, solid black bar on the far left of the video that takes up about 5% of the screen. My layers are definitely sized correctly to fill up the entire canvas, and they are all centered. I cannot figure out why I am getting this black bar or how to get rid of it without ditching the upgrade and going back to FCP5.1.
    I have already tried completely uninstalling the FCS suite and reinstalling. No luck. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

    Thanks for the reply.
    My original source material is in Apple Intermediate Codec, with 32-bit float audio and a variable frame rate. This has not been friendly to FCP, so I use Quicktime to convert it to Apple ProRes with 24-bit audio and 29.97 frame rate. This is what I import into FCP.
    My sequence settings are set to the same specs as my source material. 854x480, square pixels, no field dominance, Apple ProRes compression.
    The black bar on the left side of the screen shows up before I even export. It shows up when I render everything.
    I am exporting with Quicktime Conversion to:
    MP4
    h.264 codec
    720x405
    1000 video bit rate
    Main Profile
    No cropping/filters or anything.
    The ONLY thing I did different before upgrading to FCP6 was that I used Apple Intermediate Codec all the way through. I was told by an FCP instructor that writes and publishes all kinds of FCP training material that I should upgrade to FCP6 and use the Apple ProRes422 Codec instead, so that's what I'm trying to do.
    I am going back to restart my project using Apple Intermediate Codec all the way through like I used to, but it will be awhile before I can tell if that solved the problem. Either way, I would like to be using the ProRes codec....
    Thoughts?

    The problem of tracks becoming de-linked between iTunes and the music files in your iTunes music folder happens for different reasons - this seems to come up fairly commonly in this forum.
    The solution can be to locate each song in the iTunes library, as you mentioned - or, but wait, before I get to that...
    trouble finding the original track in your iTunes music folder? maybe look for it under compilations, or if not using the 'group compilations preference' then look in the folder under the songs artist name, but what song artist name iTunes uses depends on what you have in the metedata tag spot for album artist or song artist. Any varyation in artist name spelling, in the menu item 'get info' metadata for any selected individual track will cause iTunes to create that as a separate artist folder in the library, even names like 'various' or any difference at all (even the word 'the' can change where in your iTunes music folder a track gets placed by iTunes). You can try to use the finder function of find file (finder munu item outside of iTunes) to locate hard to find items.
    Back to how to re-link any de-linked tracks .
    There may be scripts that can help re-link de-linked music files - or, at least provide you a list of such files, Scripts are easy to install and use...
    at Dougs Scripts, there is one called iTunes Track CPR that might work
    http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=itunestrackcpr
    or, if you just want a list of de-linked tracks, go to
    http://dougscripts.com/itunes/
    and find the script called List MIA's, this will create a text file listing all de-linked tracks

  • My 13" macbook just stopped working. When you turn it on you get a white screen and hear a repetitive clicking sound on the left side. Is this the hard drive? Any suggestions on replacement drives?

    Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is, then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions. After repairing use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for restarting from your hard drive.
    If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.
