Screen image is fragmented shows mirror image

The screen on my boyfriend's 13 inch MacBook Air suddenly started showing a mirror image of about half the screen. After rebooting it, now the screen image is fragmented and the menu bar won't come up. Of course this would happen on a Sunday. Any help would be appreciated!

Good Morning Gutenberg_Girl,
If the display on your MacBook Air is distorted, try the following:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201177
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolution
Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. 
Start up in Safe Mode
Start up in Safe Mode.
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
Restart your computer.
If you tried all of these steps for your display and the video issues persist, contact Apple technical support or take your Apple computer to the nearest Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for diagnosis. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail Store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).
I hope this information helps ....

  • In the slide show view how can you pin the "next" Arrow to the ultimate edge so it is in the same place as the full screen image, it will pin to the left edge but not the right.

    Hello,
    Please make sure that the next button is pinned to the right side as there in the attached image.
    If it is already pinned, you can try removing any embedded HTML code and checking it.

  • Xperia ZL - when I turn the screen image is not shown

    I speak Spanish but try to leave the message in English too. SPANISH: Mi celular ZL presenta un problema, cuando enciendo la pantalla esta no muestra imagen. En otras palabras, la pantalla se ve negra. Esto sucede de forma aleatoria. Si tengo el celular en reposo (pero encendido) (por ejemplo en mi bolsillo o sobre mi escritorio) y quiero utilizarlo, presiono el botón de encendido, pero la pantalla no muestra imagen, el brillo de la pantalla enciende, el tactil funciona pero la imagen no se muestra. Cuando esto sucede, si presiono el botón de encendido 2 veces vuelve a presentar la imagen (la primera vez es como bloquear-apagar la pantalla, la segunda es como volverla a encender). Esto sucede de forma aleatoria entre días. También sucede al querer finalizar una llamada telefónica y separarlo de mi rostro la pantalla no muestra ninguna imagen lo que no me permite finalizar la llamada. También sucede de forma aleatoria cada tanto tiempo. Aunque suceda de forma aleatoria, es molesto y deseo encontrar solución al problema. He restablecido a datos de fabrica muchas veces y no se ha solucionado el problema. Soy de Colombia(país de latinoamerica) y la versión del sistema que tengo es Android 4.2.2 compilación 10.3.A.0.423. Via OTA y por PC Companion no aparece alguna nueva actualización. Si alguien tiene información al respecto, le sucede el mismo problema o tiene algún comentario al respecto, yo agradezco responda este mensaje. Si hay una forma de reportar este problema a los desarrolladores de Sony para que lo tengan en cuenta por favor informarme como hacerlo.gracias. ENGLISH: My cell ZL has a problem, when I turn the screen image is not shown. In other words, the screen is black. This happens at random. If I have the cell at rest (but on) (for example in my pocket or on my desk) and I use it, I press the power button, but the screen shows no picture, the screen brightness on, the touch works but the image is not displayed. When this happens, if I press the power button 2 times again presents the image (the first time is like block-off the screen, the second is like it back on). This happens randomly between days. It also happens to want to end a phone call and separate from my face the screen does not display an image which does not allow me to end the call. It also happens randomly every so often. Although happen randomly, it's annoying and I want to find solution to the problem. I reset to factory data many times and has not fixed the problem. I'm from Colombia (Latin American country) and the system version that I have is Android 4.2.2 10.3.A.0.423 compilation. Via OTA and PC Companion does not show any new updates. If anyone has information about it, it happens the same problem or have any comments about it, I appreciate reply to this message. If there is a way to report this problem to the developers of Sony to take this into account please tell me how. Thank you....

  • New LG Monitor Screen Image Keeps Shifting a few pixels left and right / goes into power save mode

    I just purchased a new LG Computer Monitor from Best Buy today and hooked it up to my PowerMac computer. Shortly after setting it up, the entire screen image started sporadically shifting left and right a few pixels. And then, at seemingly random times, it'll shut itself down, going into power save mode. I checked the cables to make sure they were secure and they seem to be. Could there be some sort of interference that's causing it? Or would it be the graphics card? My computer is only a couple years old. Please help!

    Do you have another computer you can plug the monitor into to test?

  • Full screen images and full screen color background boxes are cropping horizontally.

    Full screen images aren't loading and full screen color background boxes are cropping horizontally. I'm forced to make my images a full screen slide show (of 1 image) to make it work, but then I lose the option to pin the image. Am I alone in this?

  • How do I load a print screen image into a picture indicator?

    Hi,
    I am trying to load a printscreen image into a picture indicator without first saving it. I am currently doing it by acquiring and saving a print screen image, then reloading and displaying the bitmap file. This works, but it is not elegant and the colors are displayed wrong. (The SnapView.vi is from the G Toolbox for LabVIEW) Thanks for your help.

    Hello –
    When you push the print screen button in your keyboard, the image is send (temporarily stored) to the clipboard.
    You could call the Windows API to recover that image and send it to an indicator in the front panel. This Example Program can show you how to make Windows API calls; I think you might find it useful to get started in programming your application.
    Hope this helps.

  • Blurry full screen image 4.x/5.0/5.2 RC (Develop Module)

    I've created a small youtube video showing how the image goes blurry when hitting F for full screen.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI0GGFgE7Y8
    I've zoomed to 1:1 and then hit F in this case.  It's tempermental, it's not something that happens 100% of the time.  I'd say more like 85%.
    I've also seen it be sharp after hitting F and then go blurry when I try to pan left or right on the full screen image.
    This issue really makes a dedicated monitor for full screen images when developing useless.

    I'm not the only one having this problem:

  • Screen image clips at the bottom, not so when using explorer-how do i correct this?

    screen images such as games and submit buttons don`t show at bottom of screen. they do using explorer ,same screen setting, how do i correct

    Is this in the normal browser window or in (smaller) pop-up windows?
    It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high.
    * Use Restore or Maximize in the right-click context menu of the Taskbar icon to set focus to the Firefox application if you do not see the Firefox window.
    * Open the system menu of that Firefox window via Alt+Space and see if you can move and resize that window (use the keyboard cursor keys).
    If that works then first close all other open Firefox windows and then close Firefox via "File > Exit/Quit" to save that setting.
    If the above didn't help then see:

  • Outlook doesn't display print screens images sent in my inbox from other people

    Hi,
    I am using a MacBook Air. My professional Outlook never displays print screens images sent from time to time by other colleagues (they all use PC's with Windows OS), i instead have a little blue question mark icon.
    Do i need to download a specific plugin to display those print screens? Could someone help me out with this please?
    Thank you for your assistance.

    Yes, I have added the Page to the Workset, and also the IView to the Page.
    If I set up a temporary workset, And assign the 2 objects to it (the IView and the Page), they appear as links at the top of my Portal. When I click the link assigned to the IView, the Inbox is shown. When I click the link assigned to the Page, it only shows a blank window instead of the Inbox.

  • IMovie 6 HD - TV Screen Images are blurred

    How do I created iMovie DVD that plays clear images and text?
    I do not want to keep wasting DVDs experimenting for clear result.
    I created iMovie per instructions from another post:
    imported screenshots of website using KenBurns effect;
    set the effect to 1.0 to stop zooming, and did not allow iMovie to render movie when exporting.
    Discussion indicated that blurred image in iMovie would be clear on TV screen.
    Imported snapshots were crystal clear in Preview and Photoshop.
    Imported iMovie to iDVD and burned DVD.
    DVD plays blurred images and text.

    Are you saying I should size any still images at 768x576 pix before importing them into iMovie since that is TV resolution?
    If you are using PAL, yes. For NTSC, the resolution is 640x480 pixels.
    Does it matter what dpi the images are?
    No, the dpi is of NO concern in video.
    If snapshot captures screen images at 72dpi,
    does it help to increase dpi of image in Photoshop?
    No.
    or is that only interpolating dpi since capture was at 72dpi?
    Yes.

  • Video out to CRT yields entire screen image repeating

    I have posted this problem before with no luck. I'm trying again in the hopes someone can offer a suggestion, or determine if my Powerbook needs servicing. The guy at the Apple Store didn't have much to offer.
    The laptop's LCD display works fine. But when I extend my screen to a CRT with the video out on the card, I get my entire screen image repeating and fading off to the right. This makes for difficult text reading and detail work in programs dealing with lines and music fonts. And everyone who looks at my screen wonders if their eyes are going bad. I have tried both inputs on the display (a Mitsubishi DiamondPro 2070, 22" CRT) with no difference. I cannot capture the repetitions in a screen shot. I have tried many different resolutions and refresh rates, with no improvement. The current resolution 1280x1024, 100Hz.
    My other computer comes through just fine in the same CRT.
    Any ideas on this one? Should I have it sent in for repairs on the video card?
    Is this issue called "ghosting"? I thought that was only an issue with LCD displays. Anyhow, I am using the DVI/VGA adapter that came with the powerbook and a Belkin VGA cable (can't recall the cost, but it wasn't cheap).
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    I would definitely try another cable if you have access to one. Otherwise, it could well be your Mac's video output has a problem. Can you try the Mac with another CRT monitor somewhere? That might tell you if the problem lies inside the Mac.

  • Full screen images on page?

    I would like to have full screen images on a page that fits to most browsers. I don't know what would be the best width in order to acomplish that.

    Hi. I am also trying to have my images appear full screen when previewing in a browser. I realize you can do this by adding an image to the
    background of your Muse Document. However, this is NOT what I want to do. Here is a link to website where the images appear full screen,
    no matter how you size the browser window. http://www.lexusls.asia/ I too would like my images to appear full screen when appearing in
    a browser. I have also included an image of what I am getting when I try this. See how the city image floats in the middle? I want it to fill the
    entire screen when viewing in a browser.
    Thanks to all who may reply.

  • Full screen images on E65

    How can i put full screen images on my E65??

    Well, when you say fullscreen, you mean you want it to cover the active standby apps, as well, as the clock and provider area? If so, then you would have to customize your picture and turn it into a theme. If not, then edit your picture to be 240x320 pixels in the dimension. Your picture could be larger in size as long as it has the same aspect ratio, it should fit in perfect. I have not tried this myself, but theoretically it should work.
    Hope that helps.

  • Updated to 7.0 Can't send print-screen image and o...

    after upgraded to 7.0, I can't send the print screen image by Ctrl-V into the message box.
    I can send only text by Ctrl-V now...

    2 issues
    1. ALT + PRT + SCR PTR to capture a screen print and the CTRL + V into the chatbox still works but the receiving party since 1 or 2 days seems to receive blurry images. These images are so blurry that they become unreadable. I understand that i can sent images with file transfer, but when you do this 100 times per day this requires me to first open an image editor, save the image, then click on file transfer, find the image and press send. So this blurry variant that is sent now is really an issue for me.
    2. from time to time, files that are sent simpy do not arrive on the other side. So i can be speaking to the other side but the image randomly simply doesn't arrive. This issue comes and goes and it affects file transfers and pasted images into the chat.
