Screen flashes and pixellates in stripes when I turn it on or move it?
Hi people,
So I have a Macbook Pro that I bought in 2009.
Recently, it has started to flash in stripes and fade to white. It usually does this a few times when I turn it on/open it after being closed. Then it tends to be fine. Anyway it is sort of annoying, but I can probably deal with it as long as the rest of the things keep working.
Any ideas/explanations/possible cheap/easy fixes (because that would be ideal...)
And I'm going to copy and paste a bunch of information here now, although I don't know if it is relevant.

The symptoms suggest a faulty display connection. Take it in to the Apple store genius bar and have then check it. If I am correct, the repair should not break the bank.

My galaxy sIII screen cracked and nothing shows up when i turn it on.
Can i go to a verizon retail store to get this fixed?
No. Verizon Wireless doesn't handle repairs. If you have insurance, you can go through Asurion (spell?) and process a phone claim to get a replacement.
You can also check directly with the manufacturer of your device for any repair option they have. -
My MacBook was acting weird like sometimes I would log on and I wouldn't be able to type my password for a couple seconds,but it usually logged in after that. Then I left my computer open after installing the recent update after that all my applications were not responding. So I shut it down, when I turned it back on about an hour later it went to this loading screen and then to the login like usual. After I tried logging in a white screen flashed and it went back to the login/ password screen like nothing happened. Any ideas on what happened and what I can do to fix it?
Reinstall OS X;
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless. -

Ipod screen flashes and chirps ???
I have a 20GB click wheel Ipod. Last night it just started to make a high pitch sound and then changed to a screen flashing and chirping sound simultaneously? The flashing and chirping continued and I could not do anything. It was basically frozen, then I connected it to the fire wire port and the apple logo appeared and it seemed to fix itself. The battery was dead, I don't know if that was a symptom. I restored the Ipod and I'm waiting to see if it happens again when the battery is dead. Any help/advice would be appreciated.
Welcome to the Apple Discussions, Derek Skaalen!
I'd get a replacement ASAP. That doesn't sound good.

Screen flashes and then goes black after CPU load
Yesterday morning I upgraded my MacBook Pro 6,2 (Mid 2010) to OS X Lion. Since then I've been having issues while performing CPU-not-too-intensive tasks. Every once in a while my screen flashes for a split second and then turns completely black. The MBP is unresponsive so I'm forced to shut it down using the power button.
At first i though this was a Lion issue. However, it has happened again just now while I was on Windows through BootCamp. I was checking my e-mail and performing some other mundane tasks for about an hour, and then while trying to copy some files to an external Hard Drive my screen flashed and went black.
Hardware issue then??
Any help would be greatly appreciated.It's already happened 4-5 times right when I pressed Cmd+D to bookmark a site on Safari. What the heck? That isn't even a CPU load.
Here's the error report:

Hi, Just bought an ipod classic 160gb and i notice that when I turn the volume down all the way, music is still heard, i.e. I cannot turn it down lower than a certain volume. Is there a fix for this? Thanks
I've got a feeling that's the way it is. I know that if I turn the volume down all the way, I can still hear the music very softly -- which is great for listening when I have a migraine!

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Screen flashes and no boot when DVD is inserted!
I have a new (2 months old) iMac. My wife put in a SIMS3 DVD and weird things started happening after that - the screen would flash, and then eventually go black. I took it to the Apple Store; they found a bad hard drive and replaced it, unfortunately ignoring completely the things I told them about the display going wonky. They gave it back to me and when I brought it home it seemed fine. I then put in a 10.6.3 Install DVD (for the purpose of restoring my whole system off a Time Machine backup) and again - it won't boot (whether or not I'm holding C to boot off of it) and the screen is going wild - flashing on and off. I managed to pop the DVD out (holding down Eject key during boot) and then it booted fine. So: what does it mean that the thing won't boot when a DVD is in the drive? Are there heating problems of some sort perhaps? Why would both the hard drive and the video/DVD drive be bad? Am I missing something? Ideas welcome! thanks in advance,
MikeDuh!!!!
Thanks Dave. I was converting some of my DVDs to .m4v files for iTunes/AppleTV and set it to Ignore. Changed it back to Open DVD Player and all is as it should be.
Thanks again,

When I open Reader why does screen flash and parts of document are not readable?
When I open a PDF my screen flashes, changes color and then when the document comes up parts of it are blacked out. When I close the document the screen flashes again. I have just downloaded the latest version of Reader.
The slowness may be caused by background processing after the library update. Are you shooting RAW?
Also, where is your iPhoto library stored? In your Pictures folder or on an external drive?
How much free storage do you have on your system drive
3. Finally when my old folders, books and contents of my old photo gallery appears in the left side of the application I have access to no photo and the program remains as it were unresponsive.
You may need to repair your iPhoto Library.
Run the iPhoto library first aid tools and use the options "Repair permissions" and "Repair database".
To launch the "First Aid Tools" hold down the options-command keys while double clicking your iPhoto Library.
Then select "Repair Database". Repeat with "Repair Permissions". If this does not help, back up your iPhoto Library and use the option "rebuild". -
I own a 16GB iPhone 3G. My father passed it down to me a year ago after he got the iPhone 4. I pressed the sleep/wake button on the top of the iPhone to check the time, and as I did so, the screen flashed on and off and now the screen won't work. Whenever I put my simcard in there calls will go through but I am unable to hear them, but if I take it out calls don't go through. I've tried charging it for a while, connecting to my laptop, holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 10seconds to restore it, but nothing works. I've looked around and no-one'ed seemed to have this problem. I'd like to know what is wrong with my iPhone ASAP. thanks.
First, update iTunes, then connect the phone to the computer and do a restore. This will also get your iOS up to date. Your phone should operate correctly after doing this, if not, you will most likely need to have the phone serviced or replaced.
